Chapter 69:

Under the indifferent and malicious eyes of the villagers, the old man with gray hair in the middle of the platform pestered the cane and walked towards the people of Lixin step by step.
In his hand, the twisted rod continued to strike on the ground, making a sound of "da... da". The sound made people uncomfortable in their ears.
As we approached, we could see that the stick was slanted and engraved with leaf-like lines with rough strokes as if it were a child's random graffiti.
Standing a few meters away from the crowd, the old man looked gloomy on a gully face, standing on a cane and slanting coldly: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
[Red Leaf Village Mayor: Mude Hanks]
His throat seemed to have been injured, and his spitting voice was hissing and hoarse, and he heard a snake in his ears, with a sense of stickiness like a slug.
This village head named Mude Hanks is the boss of the copy of the suburb of this "Mystery of the Red Leaf Village".
The atmosphere in this dark red bird's nest-shaped building is really easy to make people feel a cold from the bottom of the heart. Even the bright sun is shining on these dark red buildings and the dense eyes sitting in it make people chill. The villagers seem to have been stripped of heat and become cold.
As soon as the old man's voice fell, everyone in the team looked subconsciously at the slender figure at the front of the team.
"Hello, are you the village chief here?" Li Xin stepped forward, looking at him faintly, and bluntly pointed behind him: "Our friend-Dennis wants you to return her daughter, Miss Anne."
The old man's sullen gaze followed Li Xin's pointing towards her, facing Dennis who was held by the folded leaf.
Dennis shrank apparently, but still bravely yelled at him with courage: "Yes! The girl you grabbed, the girl in the red dress and the blonde-that's my daughter! You, you give me back my Anne !"
The old man stared at him for a moment, his shriveled lips grinning openly at a black hole, and gave a low, contemptuous and mocking laugh: "Girl? Stupid boy, you have come to the wrong place. We have no outsiders here."
Seeing that the old man didn't admit it, Dennis couldn't help but anxiously broke his hands and tried to pull the old man, shouting, "You lie! You are lying! I saw it and I was still there-Annie was just below !Where did you hide her?!"
The old man opened his hand with a cane, and Dennis was knocked down to the ground by this one.
The old man saw it, a pair of old eyes flashed naked and malicious, the wrist under the cloth robe moved, and the next stick was actually heading straight to Dennis head on the ground-
"Click."
The twisted rod body was firmly held by Li Xin's raised hand, blocking its vigorous castration, and then pushing it gently, he pushed the cane back into the old man's hand.
The moment the finger touched the crutches, Li Xin only felt that the touch was very weird, smooth, tight and elastic, and it felt like he had touched the skin of a person or something.
"Hum..." The old man saw that this rod failed to hit him, snorted coldly, and turned away.
"My Annie, you stop—" Dennis lying on the floor struggled.
The old man heard this shout and turned back, a strange smile appeared on his loose face, hehe shook his head and said: "You say it? That's not a girl, it's a sacrifice."
"What?! Sacrifice? What do you want to do--" Dennis was shocked and desperate, and he shouted with horror: "You can't do this! I'll tell the government office-Anne is a worker Staff! You killed her, I will let them send troops!"
"Useless." The mocking expression on the old man's face was even better, and a long sentence was spit out word by word in the vaguely hoarse throat: "The twelfth foggy morning at the end of October and February appeared on the red The girl in a red dress in the woods is a sacrifice to heaven for God Uta."
"This is the rule of Hongye Village. It has never changed since ancient times. Why, boy, don't you believe it?"
As the old man uttered a word, Dennis's expression collapsed, and finally he dropped his head and collapsed, covering his face and sitting on the ground, crying.
Mud Hanks saw it and grinned.
It is the first time that the leaf that really enters the copy does not belong to a group of people. From the beginning of the two npc conversations, they are all in a state of mutual intimidation from beginning to end.
The eyes secretly exchanged with each other are written like:
...Is this going on the plot?
Can't fight?
How to fight?
...Who hit?
These copies of npc are too real, and the expression staring at yourself is a bit scary...
What are they talking about...
"Cough." Qishan Mountain cleared his throat, and cast a questioning look on Li Xin in the cry of Dennis' heartbreaking cry.
Li Xin glanced at him and opened the team's voice channel: "There is a registration in the Hanyuan government office-refers to the "customs around the country" column of the government affairs office, which details the customs that have been circulated and verified in the villages near the local area. habit."
"The Miracle Continental General Law stipulates that the government shall not interfere with the registered local customs."
"Oh, that is to say, this npc Dennis's daughter was caught by this group of people as a "sacrificial offering", but because this group of people has been registered and is a tradition, it is a legal act and cannot be controlled in the city, and it is not even reported to the police. Give, does that mean?" Foxtail looked up without saying a word, surprised: "What is unreasonable to break the setting."
Li Xindue knew the origin of this rule, and learned about it when she read all kinds of historical books in the library room of the main city of Moros in the past to find a task opportunity.
It was born at the end of the period of empire division that set the history of miracles. It was signed by the founder of the enlightenment church, Ms. Lellis Legus, and the then four main city masters. It has lasted for thousands of years.
The history books record that in the period of the miracle of the mainland empire, people lived a little more "magic" than the current model of collective professorship and unified management of schools.
They are divided into large and small tribes, who believe in different totems, animals, or gods, and obtain the power of survival from the objects they believe in. Every tribe naturally has many customs such as sacrifices and prayers.
When the empire collapsed, these tribes also struggled with each other in chaos. The war was spreading from the top of the land, to the tribes.
Ms. Lellis Legos, who is committed to stopping the war, will naturally not ignore these tribes when she tries to persuade Silu.
She gave the condition that all tribes who are willing to sign a peace treaty, regardless of size, will receive the right to retain their traditions and customs under the permanent protection of the law.
What do tribes need most? Reproduction, inheritance. Lillis, who saw this thoroughly, naturally gained support. Most of the successive tribes came to the city and signed this treaty.
From then on, the Miracle Continent can truly be regarded as opening the era of peace.
Hongye Village is undoubtedly a village evolved from such a tribe. Therefore, as long as their sacrifice was proved to be traditional, it would be recognized by the Common Law of the Miracle Continental.
Dennis is so desperate because every miracle citizen npc understands the extraordinary sacredness of this treaty and can never be changed and offended.
"My poor Annie, oooo..." Dennis cried heartbrokenly holding her knees, "Red skirt-blame that red skirt!"
The 40- to 50-year-old male npc seemed to be a lot of old and vicissitudes overnight. He blushed with godless eyes and said: "I should dissuade her at that time... how happy was my Anne, Wearing the red dress that Qinglang gave her, she smiled and asked me if I wasn't pretty... woo."
"What should we do? Are we going to take that girl back?" Qi Shan Shan Cao whispered on the team channel.
"Issue she doesn't know where she was taken now... Could you catch this old man and change them?" A pair of red heather eyes turned around the gray-haired old man Mud.
Li Xin stepped forward and said clearly to the old man staring at him: "That girl, we must take it away today."
"Oh?" The old man narrowed his eyes and moved the hand holding the cane slightly.
Dennis also stopped crying, looking at her like a driftwood, looking to the drowning man.
"Your sacrificial activities, it's not our intention to disturb more." Li Xin said, "But sir, the girl in the red dress really wants a certain one, doesn't she? I'll do it for her, how?"
The old man had a cold expression on his face, and looked at Li Xin a few times. He said with a smile, "Hey", "This is not impossible."
His gray eyes rolled, and greed flashed across his face, bargaining: "Two. Use two to exchange, and I agree."
"OK. I will come too." Foxtail, who was one step behind, stepped forward without saying a word.
The old man knocked on his crutches and said, "Hey," he smiled and said, "Yes, this time it is worthwhile."
This is the easiest way for players to find out the common difficulty of this copy through countless explorations-use a few female players to exchange Anne back.
In this way, the old boss can directly skip it completely, no need to fight mobs.
Then the female player in exchange will be sent into the previously cracked platform underpass, and the others will wait for the second boss boss witch-that is, the former red leaf cloak woman to come out, and take the Anne who was taken out by her. come.
The female player who enters the platform will be taken to the altar and killed by the third boss.
During the sacrifice, the old boss village head Mud Hanks and the witches priest Naji Lild will both go to and stay at the sacrifice site under the platform.
The remaining players only need to kill those repentant little monster villagers, and then they can take Anne and Dennis to leave Hongye Village and clear the simple copy.
This method can be regarded as a half-cheat method to bypass the boss clearance shortcut. Miracle has always encouraged players to start various ideas. All customs clearance methods are approved. It's just that the reward for pushing the boss is gone.
This is also a temporary decision made by Li Xin after the village team learned about the general combat strength of these members of the gang. This team is really unlikely to be pushed by any team.
This short-cut customs clearance method is nicknamed the "sacrificial flow" because the female players who are being exchanged usually directly book on their knees.
A few players, facing three bosses, have no chance of victory.
