He rubbed his eyes and looked at the bowl again in disbelief.

In the reflection is an infant baby, with a round face and a cute look.

Bar, bar, drop of liquid dripped on the surface of the water, and the baby's reflection suddenly rippled.

He remembered the assurances he had given his wife when he came out.

"Mother-in-law, don't worry, our son is blessed with a great life and will not be chosen, you are at home waiting for my good news!"

"Husband, I'm waiting for you at home."

Jiang Hun couldn't imagine what would happen to his wife if he brought this result home, maybe he would faint on the spot, maybe he would run away with his child, perhaps, he would take his life.

"No, no, no, no, it's not true!" The fat man's face was full of loneliness, his body couldn't stop trembling, his face was hideous, his hands grabbed the big blue and white bowl and raised it high, and he was about to smash it to the ground!

"Jiang Hun! Are you crazy! You want to kill our entire village? The village chief immediately stood up, directly snatched the bowl in Jiang Hun's hand, and looked at Jiang Hun calmly, and soothed in a serious voice: "I know that you are very uncomfortable, but against the will of the mountain god, do you know what our entire Yellow River Village will face?"

The village chief sighed deeply and looked at the villagers around him: "We will die, we will all die!"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding villagers all gathered around to calm Jiang Hun up.

His ears were full of the reassuring voices of the villagers, which meant that the whole village would remember his current contribution, but only Jiang Hun knew in his heart that as long as he gave his children, they would all be safe.

"Hunwanzi, you are still young, now you lose a child and what are you afraid of, you can still have another one." One of them, a middle-aged man with a pockmarked face, spoke the loudest.

As soon as Jiang Hun heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore, and suddenly punched the man in the face of the pockmarked man, and said angrily: "Huang Mazi! You are not married, you have no son, you naturally do not know what it is like to lose your son! You have said everything to survive, but what Lao Tzu has lost is, my son! O my son!

Jiang Hun covered his face and squatted on the ground crying, his mind was full of his son's cute appearance.

He hasn't called my dad yet, he can't even walk, he's only been in this world for a month!

He hadn't even visited this small mountain village, and now...

In his twenties, he lay on the ground and sobbed, and the villagers around him all looked at him quietly, everyone looked at each other, and a sad mood spread in everyone's hearts.

Jiang Chen stood at the back of the crowd, quietly watching all this, seeing the iron-boned man's painful appearance at this time, and his heart could not help but ripple.

At this time, the village chief whispered something to several strong men beside him.

The men immediately nodded, and then quickly left here.

"Let's go." Jiang Hai sighed, and he said to Jiang Chen: "The village chief has already sent someone to his house, and his son can't keep it."

Jiang Chen's brows furrowed, he looked at the village chief with a sad face, he always felt that the other party was particularly concerned about the matter of the mountain god sacrifice, perhaps, from the position of the village chief, protecting the entire village chief was his most correct choice.

Jiang Chen and Jiang Hai left, Jiang Hai had no sense of existence in the village, although he was carrying a Taoist priest behind him at this time, and everyone didn't pay much attention, but the village chief still carefully observed Jiang Chen, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.

Just as Jiang Chen followed Jiang Hai out of the village committee hall, the village chief called out to Jiang Chen.

"This young man, please stay."

Jiang Chen stopped and turned to look at the village chief: "Something?"

"I see you're wearing a Taoist uniform, are you a Taoist priest?" The village chief's eyes were a little nervous, but he still nodded politely at Jiang Chen and smiled: "Is something happening to the family of which villager in our village?"

Jiang Chen waved his hand: "No, I was just passing by, and I just saw a lot of people, so I came in to take a look and make it lively."

"Oh, so that's the case, I'll just say, our village has the protection of the mountain god, and generally speaking, there should be no villagers who invite you to exorcise evil spirits." The village chief's face visibly relaxed.

"Mountain god blessed? I don't think this mountain god of yours is a good immortal, and he also needs human sacrifices. Jiang Chen's expression was indifferent.

"Young man, you are wrong about this, Lord Mountain God, he needs a living sacrifice, but after we contribute the sacrifice, we can ensure that the village will be smooth for ten years, not affected by natural disasters, and not disturbed by mountain spirits, so it is worth saying."

The village chief said this loudly, as if he had deliberately said it to anyone.

"Worth it?" Jiang Chen whispered, "Maybe."

With that, he turned and left.

The village chief looked at the back of Jiang Chen leaving, and always felt that Jiang Chen looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while.

Jiang Chen came to the courtyard and got into a taxi directly.

The taxi drove in the direction of his house under Jiang Hai's guidance.

Sitting in the car, Jiang Chen frowned, he didn't expect that there would be a sacrifice to the living in the place where he grew up.

"Dad, when will the mountain god come?" Jiang Chen turned his head and asked.

"Came in the middle of the night, I remember that I was at home and waited until twelve o'clock at night, the mountain god came, as soon as it came, he asked me where the sacrifice was, I said that the sacrifice had been killed by me and buried, and as a result, I saw a mist drifting towards me, and I fainted, and when I woke up, I found that both of my kidneys were gone."

"Brother, you mean, you fainted, and then when you woke up, the two waists were gagged?" Chen Gang couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, moreover, the next day the mountain god went to take away the second child of the village chief, so that our village can be safe for ten years." Jiang Hai still had fear in his eyes when he said it now, but when he saw his son grow up unharmed at this time, his heart was very gratified, and he felt that it was all worth it.

"Dad, are you saying that Jiang Tao has already contributed his two children to the mountain god?"

"That's right, it is precisely because Jiang Tao selflessly contributed his two children, his wife can't understand, and he left the village after divorcing him, and it is precisely because of his relatively high reputation in the village after these two things, so we all have always supported him as the village chief."

After Jiang Chen listened, he had a little more understanding of the village chief Jiang Tao.

Recalling Jiang Tao's complicated expression, he must have been helpless when he sacrificed the child at that time.

Jiang Chen took a deep breath and looked down at the chainsaw placed at his feet.
