Sacrifice
Beautiful as the moon, with long silver-blue hair
The sky was covered with dark clouds, the sea was white, and there was crying.
On the sampan covered with lotus flowers, Du Wanwan was wearing a bright red wedding dress and crying silently.
Wanwan's mother had already cried herself to death in her brother's arms. Wanwan's father knelt beside the sampan with tears streaming down his face. "Wanwan, Daddy is sorry for you... Our Yinsha Village can't stand the suffering of the 'overflowing tide' any more... Every year we worship the sea god, and every year the tide comes, we can only think of offering human sacrifices to appease the sea god's anger... Wanwan, you are my daughter, and as the village chief, I can only let you go first..."
Wanwan nodded blankly, her body tightly tied to the side of the sampan with cow tendons. She forced herself to look back and said to her father, "Dad, I am an unfilial daughter, so I will go first... You have to take good care of my mother for Wanwan..."
Before she finished her words, a huge tide suddenly surged in the sea, as if countless beasts were hiding in the tide and roaring.
The people on the shore were so scared that they fled in all directions, no longer caring about the poor girl by the water.
Wanwan felt that the huge waves were overwhelming her, drowning all her senses...
Is she going to die?
She will eventually be drowned in this tide...
Becoming the bride of the sea god? Ha, funny, this is just a way to whitewash death. Why does the sea god need an ordinary human woman to be his bride? At most, he just wants to taste human flesh...
That's it, the tide has already hit, and the villagers are tightly tied with beef tendons. She is destined to be unable to escape...
For the lives of the whole village, who will care about her life or death?
Wanwan closed her eyes tightly, waiting for suffocation and death to come together.
A vague curiosity surged in her mind: I just don't know what the sea god will look like? Dragon? Or turtle, shrimp or crab?
Beside my ears, the waves are roaring and surging; in front of my eyes, there is already a dark place without light.
However, the death that Wanwan had been waiting for had not yet come! What surprised Wanwan even more was that she found that she could actually breathe in the water!
This shock made Wanwan open her eyes suddenly - God, everything in front of her made Wanwan reluctant to close her eyes...
Like a huge pure white jellyfish, or a huge bubble, Wanwan was covered by a layer of silver film, following it in the sparkling water waves...
Outside the bubble, it seemed that the light of the stars and the moon penetrated through the water waves, dimly illuminating the darkness around Wanwan.
What is this?
Who did this?
As if to answer Wanwan's question, a line of bright color suddenly emerged from the dark water waves outside the film. It was silver-white, and there was a faint precious light flowing...
Wanwan widened her eyes in surprise. In the silver-white line, along with the surging waves, a man wearing a silver-white robe and with long silver-blue hair draped over his shoulders came on the waves!
Wanwan was so shocked that she forgot to breathe. She kept looking at the beautiful man in the water waves, watching his narrow eyes gradually envelop her, watching his thin red lips slightly raised...
The feeling of suffocation came overwhelmingly, and Wanwan really felt the taste of death approaching this time!
But——she didn't want to die yet, she, she hadn't seen enough of the beautiful man in front of her…
"Silly, breathe…" A voice as soft as the bright moon entered her ears, and Wanwan's suffocation became worse. She suddenly turned her head to look at the man outside the film, and saw that the man was smiling and talking to her through the film…
