Chapter 1

This is my hometown, Yanshou village.

I stood on this land for the first time since I was born, full of curiosity.

Maybe there are few outsiders in Yanshou village, so my appearance has attracted the attention of many villagers passing by, but their eyes on me are cold and strange.

Last night, my father received a call from the village head, saying that the third uncle had passed away.

In the past, my parents always refused to come back to see me for various reasons. This time, I made an exception to ask me to come back to attend the funeral of my third uncle on their behalf. It's really strange.

"Are you Mirena?" Her thoughts were interrupted by a voice. The questioner was a middle-aged woman. She looked honest and honest. She had been exposed to the wind and sunshine all the year round, which made her face full of the frost of years.

I politely said, "I am."

"How come?" The middle-aged woman complained, "the village head has been waiting for you. Follow me."

The middle-aged woman said that, without waiting for my reaction, she turned around and walked straight to the depth of the village. I looked innocently at the middle-aged woman who kept complaining, so I had to take a few steps and follow her.

"It's a pity for such a beautiful young girl."

"What a pity! Look at that foxy face. It looks like disaster."

"That's to say, it's her blessing to be the third uncle's bride!"

When the women who used to stand at the head of the village chatting saw me, they all cast a look of disdain and disgust, and their conversation made me suspicious.

Thinking of the strange look when my parents sent me to the car today, I felt an unexpected premonition. I suddenly stopped walking. I didn't want to turn around and run. Then I heard the middle-aged woman scream behind me: "hold on to her! The sacrificial girl has run away

No matter how hard I ran, I was caught.

"Let me go! Why are you arresting me! " In my struggle, I took a bite and grabbed my hand. The villager snorted in pain and said, "this girl is really pretty! Hold on to her for me

In this way, I was sent to the village branch.

In the room sat an old man with a cigarette bag in his mouth and yellow teeth. Seeing that I was brought in, he knocked the cigarette bag on the sole of his shoes twice and said to me in a helpless tone: "girl, since you have come, don't think about going back."

I forced to shake off the clamp, rubbed my blue wrist, frowned and stared at the old man, and said unhappily, "are you the village head? I'm here to express my condolence to my third uncle. How can I still be caught like a prisoner by you? "

"Ha ha." When I was questioned in a bad tone, the village head not only didn't get angry, but also laughed, but the smile made me feel more cautious and flustered, "it seems that your parents didn't tell you anything! Yes, I told you, and you won't come. "

"What do you mean?" An ominous premonition came, which made the nerves of the whole body tense. It seems that my parents knew about this situation today, but why did they do it!

"You are here to make a living sacrifice for your third uncle." The head of the village grinned with a big yellow tooth. He picked up a bowl of black things on the table and put it to my mouth. "Drink this. You'll feel better later."

"What the hell am I not drinking?" With a wave of my hand, I knocked the bowl down to the ground. As the porcelain bowl broke, the black viscous liquid spilled all over the floor, disgusting.

"I'm going back!" I didn't want to stay in this strange village for a second, so I turned and walked to the door.

"Go? Hum, you can't go! " The village head glanced at me, rolled up his cigarette bag and said with a sneer, "take three uncles' brides and be sure to bury them together when the auspicious time comes!" Then he went out with his hands behind his back.

As soon as the village head's voice fell, several strong villagers came up and grabbed me by the arm without saying a word. They forcibly caught me in an open space on the hillside. It seemed that the whole village had gathered here, waiting for their long-awaited burial ceremony.

On the hillside, the wind blows. In the middle of the open space, there is a huge earth pit dug, in which there is a dark wooden coffin. Even in the scorching sun, it gives people a sense of gloomy and cold.

On the edge of the earth pit, there was a painted black coffin. The open lid of the coffin was like a ferocious mouth. It seemed that I couldn't wait to swallow it.

Looking at everything in front of me, I just felt numb on my scalp, cold all over, struggling desperately, but no matter how I resisted, it didn't help, "you crazy people! Let me go! There will be retribution if you neglect people's lives like this

"Girl, it's glorious for you to exchange your life for the life of our village." Then he waved to the man who was pressing me, "when the auspicious time comes, those rituals will be avoided. Go straight into the coffin!"

As soon as the words fell, I was pushed forward from behind and fell into the coffin.

With a bang, the lid of the coffin was quickly closed, and all around it became black.
