Chapter 256 Bai is excited

[Jianghu emergency rescue, change it to the real manuscript later]

The more Xia Yu thought about it, the more excited he felt, and immediately he couldn't wait to act.

I first look for the statue and then get the sacrifice, and I will do this this morning.

But he knew that as soon as he was about to set off, he heard the village chief's voice.

"Hey, that gravedigger, where have you gone? Those corpses are almost smelly. Why don't you deal with the corpses quickly?"

While saying that, he threw a few copper coins to Xia Yu.

Xia Yu had no choice but to take the copper coins and did it, but he actually forgot that he had still got to work.

Xia Yu was a little depressed. Although the gravedigger had various convenient places, he still couldn't escape his daily work.

I had no choice but to agree, pick up the copper coins and go to work, go back to the cemetery to push out my own wheel cart, and start transporting the buried corpses.

As usual, they used the corpse picking skill to the corpse first. Neither of the two villagers had any good or bad luck, but they picked up an interesting thing from Xuanniao.

【Night Watcher Lantern (Parts for the Dealer)

Use: Illuminate the surroundings and make the morale of villagers within the lighting range +1, and the morale of dark creatures -1.

Item introduction: A lantern with kerosene as fuel can illuminate the surroundings in the darkness. Human beings have an instinctive fear of darkness. This lantern can bring light and awaken the courage in people's hearts. In the long night, night watchers can only rely on this thing to have the courage to watch.]

Xia Yuxin said that the skill of picking up corpses is really magical. The Xuanniao has been burned to this point and can still find something from the corpse. However, this thing is really useless to him. If he is a civilian, it would be fine. As a dark creature, this thing is useless.

He threw the lantern into the stone house and then started digging a hole to bury people.

He was in a hurry to make trouble, and he was too lazy to dig a deep pit. He only dug a small pit one meter deep, hoping that he could stuff the body in, and he was too lazy to use the coffin. He threw the body into the pit and buried the soil and was considered to be alive.

Three corpses were buried, and it was only noon, so he could start his own mission.

Walking on the way to the village, Xia Yu was still thinking about it. He thought that there were seven or eight lying in the mine. If he was discovered by the people in the village and buried him, it would be a problem. Even if he was a vampire, it would not be easy to deal with.

It is best to find all the statue sacrifices in the afternoon, sacrifice them, strengthen them, and discuss tactics with the dragon cavalry, and to handle those civilians tonight.

While thinking, Xia Yu opened the human skin map and secretly remembered the location of the demon statue in his heart. Then he walked into the village, walked to the location where the statue was marked, and looked around. What made Xia Yu speechless was that he didn't see anything. He took out the map again without giving up.

It's really here, why is there nothing?

He compared the map again, marking the location of the demon statue on the map. In reality, it is located in the center of the village. The two roads cross the village and lead to the four parts of the village. The place where Xia Yu stood was the intersection of a crossroads. Not to mention the devil statue, there was not even a building.

Wait, the intersection? The devil statue? He suddenly remembered that it seemed that in Western myths and legends, the intersection was the place where the devil met. People could trade with the devil through some kind of ritual, usually as if they exchanged a wish with their souls.

He has seen similar plots in film and television dramas.

Or should I wait until midnight to try again?

But if I want to do it tonight, it will be too late. If it really doesn't work, I can only go to the Shadow in the Stone to sacrifice.

Xia Yu thought helplessly, let’s look for the sacrifice first. According to the advice provided by Black Cat, Xia Yu began to look for his ‘insider’.

Heishi Village is not very big. In the whole village, there are less than a hundred villagers including the elderly and children. After wandering around the village for two times, he really found a suspicious target. Just under a big tree, there was an old man with messy gray hair, wearing a torn fur coat, and was sleeping there at noon, holding an empty wine bottle in his arms.

Because Xia Yu was also a resident of the village, after careful observation, the old man's identity naturally emerged in Xia Yu's mind.

This old man should be one of the first residents of Heishi Village. No one knows how long he has lived. He is stupid and stupid on weekdays. He is not only drinking but also sleeping under the trees. He occasionally says some crazy words. Some people feel pitiful and give him some food. The village chief even takes care of him not to starve him to death.

His name has long been forgotten, and everyone in the village calls him a fool.

The old man, drunkard, madman, and beggar almost occupied all the elements that the black cat said, but the insider did not run away.

Xia Yu thought about it and had to use some tricks to talk to this old man. He turned around and went into the tavern, bought a bottle of ale from the tavern owner, and then went back to the cottage to take out the bottle of wine that he had only taken one sip.

Walking to the old man, Xia Yu unscrewed the wine bottle, sprinkled a little on the old man, then took a sip and smelled the wine. The old man woke up with his nose twitching and stared at the wine bottle in Xia Yu's hand.

Xia Yu raised the bottle of wine to the old man, "Hey, do you want to drink some?"

After hearing Xia Yu's words, the old man immediately showed a greedy look.

"Give me some, give me some."

Xia Yu didn't say anything nonsense and handed over the bottle.

The old fool greedily drank the ale in the bottle, and in the blink of an eye, he drank all the wine. After drinking, he looked at the wine in Xia Yu's hand.

Xia Yu did not give him this time. "Before drinking, please answer me a question. Old man, do you know about the sacrifice?"

"Sacrifice? What kind of sacrifice?"

"It is the sacrifice to God."

The old man looked disdainful, "Of course I know that people sacrificed to God with the blood of pure white lambs. What is this problem? What fools know about it, give me wine."

"So do you need something else to sacrifice except the blood of the pure white lamb?"

The old man was stunned for a moment, "Although it is not common, it is indeed there."

"What is that?"

The old man showed a look of memories on his face.

"Do you know the origin of the name Scarlet Valley?"

After saying that, before Xia Yu could answer, he started to tell himself.

"At that time, there were a group of pagans living in this valley. A nobleman who opened the border took a fancy to the land here. He came here with twelve knights and hundreds of mercenaries, killing all of them. The blood of those pagans stained the earth, and the whole valley turned red, and the Scarlet Valley was named after it.

It is said that the leaders of the pagans issued a curse before their death. The evil god they believed in would come one day and kill all the enemies in the valley.

Of course no one believes his words, there is only one god in the world.

In the second year, the valley was full of roses, and red fruits like grapes grew on the roses. The nobleman used these fruits to make a batch of wine, which was a gift to God.

Most of these wines have been used up, but the owner of the tavern is said to have a bottle in his house. Oh, let's try the truth again."

Xia Yuxin said this was easy to deal with.

But how do you get the wine?
