Chapter 98: The Scapegoat
(Opened a book club group: 687433290)
When there are only a few slices of ham left on the plate, when there are only a few pieces of cheese left in the earthen pot, when there is only a shallow bottom left of the ale in the barrel, the Holy Communion will come to an end, and the man in purple robe will
He swallowed the last piece of fried fish whole, wiped the grease off his lips, walked up to the platform again, and returned to his serious and solemn appearance.
He said loudly——
"Food and wine are rewards and rewards given to workers, hard-working people, honest people, and law-abiding people. It rewards you for your unremitting struggle against the dark thoughts in your heart in the past year and sowing the seeds of positivity and happiness throughout the North.
..."
"But there are two sides to everything in the world. There are those who work hard and those who enjoy the fruits of their labor. There are those who abide by the law and there are those who act recklessly. While you are caring for your relatives and friends, creating a life, supporting the law, and insisting on working, there are also people who indulge their selfish desires.
, infringing on the interests of the general public and destroying the peace and harmony of the northern border..."
"Here, in the name of the Hidden Sage, we carry out righteous judgment on the sinners!"
After the words fell, a man with bare feet, shackles on his ankles, and sackcloth was brought up. In full view of everyone, his face became increasingly pale, making people wonder if he was about to faint in the next second.
, followed by a woman, also wearing sackcloth, but it could not hide her sexy figure, but it was difficult for the men present to have evil thoughts towards her - because her hair was shaved, and her face and
Her head was smeared with charcoal ash, which made her look particularly terrifying - and her face was distorted like a ghost with anger.
"You bunch of bastards! How dare you do this to me!" She yelled in a harsh voice, "I curse you, you will definitely... ahem..."
The cold air choked her lungs, and she suddenly coughed violently. The purple-robed man at the head ignored her incompetent rage and began to read out their charges one by one. The expressions on people's faces were confused at first, but then gradually changed to
Uncontrollable anger - It turns out that this is a couple who make a living by running a grocery store. About three months ago, they disguised an addictive drug as flavored candies, fruit candies, tobacco and scented candles for sale.
This kind of drug will make people feel energetic at first, but as time goes by, it will make people skinny and in a trance, until they become a walking zombie.
In order to show the seriousness of the matter, the man in purple robe specifically emphasized the harm of this drug to children, such as causing stunted growth, making a beautiful child grow into a grotesque shape with a big head and a small body, suppressing breathing, and making a strong person gradually lose his ability to run.
The freedom to laugh, if you walk a little faster, you will be out of breath - if you are unlucky, you may even die because you can't catch your breath. When some gentle-faced women heard this, their eyes were so angry that they were about to burst into flames, and they were shocked and scared.
He hugged his child tightly.
If my children didn't eat this dirty stuff as a snack... Oh my god, that would be terrible! Such a heartless guy shouldn't live in the world!
"The masterpiece of the witch family?" Amon fished out a few remaining cheeses from the jar and chewed them to get a light salty taste.
"Uh-huh." Thoth also twisted the remaining ham slices on the plate and ate it.
After breakfast, Medici wandered off somewhere, while Yelena went to find new friends she met at the women's party. Amon and Thoth mingled among the crowd, looking for leftover food.
Following the movement on the stage - although he had just eaten a meal, Thoth believed that the main meal was the main meal and the snacks were snacks, and they should be counted separately...
"Selling banned drugs...how did you find out about this?"
The remaining fruit wine flew out of the barrel as if it had wings. Amon poured a cup for Thoth and another for himself.
"Purely coincidental."
Amon rolled his eyes at him and said, "The witch is keen on playing tricks - although her methods are not very clever, but after hearing these understatement of yours, I will be furious to death."
"Hey, aren't I being humble?" Thoth smiled, "You know, Chike and Medici have never dealt with each other. Medici and I are close, so naturally we have to guard against him, so the disease
I pay special attention to things like commotion, curses, and *** - the witch family did cause a few troubles for me, but after several severe crackdowns, they calmed down a lot.
"
"But asking the witch to really stop is the same as asking Medici not to mock people - Iossible. It's absolutely impossible. I believe they are planning something secretly, but I am keeping an eye on the city all the time.
Every corner in it is really a bit laborious, so I cultivated a lot of eyes. Speaking of which, I have to mention a child who is as careful as hair."
"The kid was once a vampire's apprentice and currently works in a hospital. One night two months ago, the girl who lived across from his house came to ask for help. He ran over and took a look - it turned out to be the girl and her boyfriend.
He was doing some indescribable things. As a result, the poor young man rolled his eyes and fainted for some reason, and his heart stopped. To put it simply, he suffered a stroke. Fortunately, the child learned cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
Yes, after one set of operations, people came to life again.”
"During the subsequent follow-up consultation, the child learned that the lucky man who survived the catastrophe was a hunter." Thoth paused and said, "He was born with sequence 9."
There are many Medici descendants in the border guards. Some returned to their family's territory after serving in the army, while others chose to settle down here, marry and have children. It is not surprising to meet some natural hunters.
Amon suddenly understood: Hunters have always been famous for their strong bodies. Even if they are only Sequence 9, their physical fitness is far beyond that of ordinary people. But for a hunter in his youth - he almost died suddenly just because of a fight.
It's really weird. "The kid thought at first that someone had put a curse on him, so he started investigating the hunter's interpersonal relationships, but there was no significant result. After being puzzled, he reported the matter.
Go up and be seen by me."
"Then I asked the believers to check if there had been any similar incidents recently - and it turned out that there had been, but their luck and physique were not that good. Most of them were extremely happy one second and dying the next second. Although these few people
Their family backgrounds, temperaments, jobs, and educational levels were all very different, and they didn't know each other, but they had one similarity, that is, they knew how to smoke, and they smoked quite violently some time before their death.
At this point, I have to praise the capable children in the school, and it is difficult for them to find such an inconspicuous entry point."
"Later, we found out about the grocery store, the proprietress who was actually a witch, and her secret workshop hidden underground. In addition to bottles and cans, there were also a lot of candy wrappers and cigarette wrappers." "Will."
Are addictive substances made into commonplace things like cigarettes and sugar..."...
Amon drank up the fruit wine in the cup, "She is a little clever, but it seems that she didn't grasp the ratio well at the beginning and made the medicine too strong."
"According to the standards of this era, it is indeed quite clever." Thoth snorted, "It's a pity that I am an old monster with considerable experience in this field."
To be precise, it is the experience of "I have never eaten pork but I have seen pigs running away".
In view of the history of blood and tears of the anti-Japanese war, almost every school in China will provide anti-drug education. When Meng Bai was less than ten years old, he often looked at and played with the colorful pictorials related to anti-drugs at the school gate and learned about it.
Drugs can be disguised as lollipops, milk tea, instant coffee and other regular customers of the canteen, so much so that when he looked at the canteen owner during that time, he could think of "Operation Mekong".
"Where is that man?" Amon asked, "I think he is just an ordinary person."
"We channeled him." Thoth said calmly, "He knew that his wife was doing some bad things, but chose to turn a blind eye - if everyone was like him and had no consciousness of maintaining social order, I and I would
Isn’t my school going to die from exhaustion?”
The statement of the crime is coming to an end. Next, the criminal will be stripped off his clothes and paraded through the streets amidst the biting cold wind, contemptuous looks and countless scoldings. The witch still had anger in her eyes at first, but she didn't know after she was splashed with water.
After being exposed to so much dirt and being spit on, she collapsed and almost lost control - but in order to prevent this from happening, her shackles had long been replaced with special ones, making her once proud of the extraordinary
The power has turned into a pool of stagnant water that can no longer make waves.
"The effect of this trick is indeed much better than a simple death penalty," Amon paused: "But don't tell me that her death penalty will be abolished as a result."
The implication is that you must not repay her
opportunity for recovery.
"Well, of course she won't die." Before Amon spoke again, Thoth added the second half of the sentence leisurely, "Next, this lady will have to visit the ruins of the God War and do some controlled variable experiments.
Provide me with some valuable parameters."
After being tortured by extraordinary powers in various ways, the immortal will be destroyed.
"What's wrong? You suddenly showed such an expression."
"I always feel that you are very concerned about selling addictive substances, very concerned about it," Amon paused, "It can even be said that you are quite resentful."
"Yeah." Thoth sighed, "In comparison, your cinnamon apple filling dumplings are not so..."
"So……?"
"No! I'm still very angry, but it just doesn't belong to the same type!" Thoth started grabbing Amon's shoulders and shaking them wildly, "How can you wrap fruit in a dumpling wrapper?! Is this something people can think of, ah?"
!Oh, you are indeed not a human being."
Feeling scolded, Amon argued: "But didn't I only pack one?"
"That's not okay! Although I like pork dumplings and cinnamon apple pie, the two together look weird!"
At the same time, the land abandoned by God.
When dealing with extraordinary items - especially those with extremely weird negative effects and the ability to kill people, there are roughly three ways of thinking.
The first is compromise, that is, satisfaction to a certain extent. If it likes to play with the thread of the spirit body, then throw a few insects and mice into it regularly. If it desires the flesh and blood of a living person, use some unforgivable methods.
Scum feed it….
The second type is offset, that is, bringing together two extraordinary items with opposite negative effects, severe cold versus intense heat, growth versus desolation, prohibition versus indulgence, and so on.
The third method is intimidation. There are two prerequisites for this method. One is that the object has certain wisdom and knows what fear is. The other is that the being is extremely high-level and can directly knock it back to its original shape and change it.
It has the extraordinary characteristic of being able to form one piece without making any mistakes, and being dead can never die again.
"So why don't we just scare that thing? Why do we have to do such a complicated ritual?"
"That is, say like this, 'If you still dare to do that parricide curse, we will turn you into a piece of the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Desolation Mistress!' and send it to the Church of the Earth Mother, so that anyone who wants to be promoted to an angel can
Swallow you!,"
"You don't know, that little branch is so confident because it is the only hope for hundreds of people in Silver City to eat!"
"It doesn't matter, let's torture it in a hundred ways first, and then mercifully negotiate terms with it after it is on the verge of death - only when you show off and demolish the house, will the stubborn guy be willing
Open a window."
"But if the gift of the earth is accidentally damaged, Thoth will blame us, right? He might never talk to us again!"
"Then there's nothing to worry about. Anyway, it's the main body that boasts about Haikou, and if it's messed up, it's also the main body that's messed up. It doesn't matter what our clones do!"
"Hmph, speaking of the true body...the despicable and shameless true body actually left us in a place abandoned by God and went out to be happy on his own! I will overthrow Him one day!"
"Overthrow the tyranny of the body! Freedom belongs to all Amon!"
A group of black crows huddled in the branches of a dead tree for a meeting. From a distance, they looked like a tree crown swaying in the wind. The residents of Silver City gathered in the shadow of the "tree crown", but turned a deaf ear to their existence - their dark bodies could not be reflected.
Even though they cannot reach people's eyes, their chirping sounds and flapping wings cannot reach their ears.
From the gray-haired elders to the baby in his mother's arms, everyone in Silver City was standing in the square at the moment, with Chief Hawks Fowley and the other two council elders standing at the front.
One is holding an earthen pot in his right hand, a bone blade in his left hand, and the other is holding a yellowed roster.
Every time the elder who took the list read a family name, three to seven people would come out. The grandparents would cut the palms of their parents with bone blades, and the parents would cut the palms of their children with bone blades. Some newborn babies would cry incessantly, even if the mother
Showing his unbearable expression, he also pricked his finger with a bone needle, causing blood to drip into the earthen jar.
The crowd dispersed
Afterwards, the blood, which contained the meaning of "kin cannibalism", was poured onto the sprouting black-faced grass - this was a "compromise."
After the blood soaked the land planted with blackface grass, Hawkes Foley asked respectfully: "What should we do next?"
Although he could not see his body, he knew that He was not far away.
The clones who were shouting slogans just now fell silent, and a Sequence 2 clone spoke leisurely: "Build an altar and wait for the gift. Remember to build a fence."
Hawks and the others frowned: "Fence?"
"For you will have a sheep," He added meaningfully, "a scapegoat."
