C122 (1/2)
This feeling made me anxious. Although this child wasn't what I wanted, I usually didn't feel his presence.
But I know he is.
Furthermore, he had saved me more than once. As a mother, how could I bear to watch my child be killed before my eyes?
Since ancient times, the execution grounds had always been a place of murder.
Hearing Mu Chen say this, the first taboo of the Dao had a mention of ”sleeping without words, killing without words during the afternoon, fighting without words during the night, not talking about ghosts or gods” mentioned, and no one dared to talk about killing during the afternoon.
Because in ancient times, when criminals were killed, it was noon at a quarter to one, which was at noon, at the most noon.
As the saying goes, the Yin is the Yin, and the Yin is the Yang. Thus, at noon, the Yin Qi is at its strongest. The reason why they chose this time to kill the prisoners was to allow the prisoners to quickly enter the Yin Valley and enter the cycle of reincarnation to leave the Sea of Bitterness.
It seems that Huang Chengyun had deliberately chosen this time as preparation. A person with an extremely yin constitution like mine is, at this moment, the weakest of the body.
When the sun was at its brightest, it was not only me, but also the child in my belly.
No matter how powerful he was, he was still an unformed fetus, and my stomach continued to ache.
Every time Huang Chengyun hit the willow branch on my hand, I felt the pain in my stomach increase.
The premonition in my heart was growing stronger and stronger, as if something was slowly fading away.
No!
No!
Even if the child in my belly isn't human, I can't bear to see him hurt.
I don't know where I got the strength from, but I suddenly stood up, used my shoulder to knock Huang Chengyun away, and then started to run.
”Quick, catch him! Don't let him escape!”
”Hurry up!”
I somewhat underestimated the power of what Huang Chengyun had just said. As expected, people are selfish and blind, no matter what, as long as they threaten their own safety, they would mercilessly kill them.
I had only run a few steps, but Huang Chengyun had yet to speak, when the villagers already took the initiative to attack and caught me.
In order to prevent me from escaping, they tied me to the willow tree. As I approached the willow tree, I saw that there were a lot of ghosts hanging on the tree.
They looked at me with a wistful expression, not just towards me, but the villagers as well.
My body was bound.
Two ghosts approached.
”Another human has arrived!”
The ghost dressed in white said in a high-pitched voice.
”What humans, I think they'll be the same as us soon!” Another ghost that was wearing a set of green clothes said in a cold voice.
”That's true …”
”She looks a little strange!” The ghost dressed in green said.
The man in white looked at me and sized me up before nodding. ”It is indeed a little strange. He isn't dead yet. His yin aura is even heavier than ours!”
I didn't say anything as I curiously sized them up. From their clothes, they should be old ghosts that had died hundreds of years ago.
”There's something good in her stomach!”
After a while, the ghost dressed in green spoke.
”Wa, it seems to be true!” After saying that in surprise, she became even more interested in me. ”What is the background of this young lady?”
