Living Sacrifice

C5



My father, flustered, called me a prodigal, and followed the old woman out.

Watching the two of them disappear from my sight, I started to doubt the identity of that grandma.

I'm sure there's no such relative in my family, or I would have known.

Looking at my father's respectful attitude towards her, he doesn't seem to be as simple as respecting his elders.

I vaguely guessed that this old lady was invited by my father to deal with Soo Soo.

Thinking about this, I felt a chill run down my spine for a while.

Right now, Soo Soo was only on guard against the Zhao Family. She would never think that her family members would want to harm her.

If she were to meet him somewhere else, she might not necessarily be wary of that old woman.

The more I thought about it, the more worried I became. I decided to immediately tell this matter to Soo Soo.

Thus, I sneaked out of my house to look for Soo Soo.

But after I left, I was stunned. I didn't even know where Soo Soo was.

I might have gone to the place where she was hiding, but that was done after I lost consciousness by Soo Soo. After the two of us got intimate, I fainted again, so I had no idea how to get in and out of that place.

But then I thought better of it and decided that it must be near the Zhaojia cemetery.

Soo Soo was a woman. She did not have much strength to pull me too far away. Therefore, the distance from that place to the Zhao Family graveyard could not be more than a hundred meters.

It makes my hair stand on end to go to the cemetery in the middle of the night to look for someone.

However, thinking about Soo Soo's safety, I clenched my teeth and left.

This time I learned to be a good boy and brought a flashlight with me when I came.

But in the darkness of the night, the flashlight was of limited use. I searched the vicinity of the Zhaojia cemetery, but couldn't find the small house that night.

I was so tired that I was sweating profusely. I couldn't help but wonder where Soo Soo was hiding.

I want to shout, but when I think of where I am, I don't dare

If I shout in the graveyard, if someone really answers me, and it's not Soo Soo, I'll be scared to death.

So I gave up the idea and continued my search.

At this moment, an idea popped into my mind. Could it be that Soo Soo didn't even live in a hidden room?

Now I remembered the house I had seen that night. It looked so much like a coffin, only a little bigger.

I sucked in a breath of cold air as an idea suddenly appeared in my mind: Was Soo Soo hiding in a coffin?

If that was the case, then no one would be able to find her, because no one would ever think to find a living person in a coffin.

The moment this thought surfaced, many of the fragments in my mind began to assemble themselves. Why did I suddenly sink into the tomb that day? Why did Soo Soo never come to me? And why was I unable to find her?

All sorts of thoughts were spinning in my head, before finally locking onto Zhao Quan'er's grave.

The tomb was the largest in the entire tomb circle. With the Zhao Family's wealth, it was entirely possible that they could get a huge coffin.

Just thinking about how Soo Soo has been sleeping in a coffin for so many days makes my heart ache.

Thus, I turned around and headed towards the center of the tomb circle.

After a short while, I had already reached the center of the tomb circle. I could vaguely see a faint light emitting from it.

After turning off the flashlight, the ghostly light floated up and down, sometimes bright and sometimes dark.

When I saw the light, I felt a chill run down my spine.

At the same time, he had a sliver of luck in his heart that Soo Soo had created it.

I stealthily made my way over and stopped just as I got close to Zhao Quan'er's grave. I whispered to Soo Soo in the direction of the light. "Soo Soo!"

After hearing my voice, the light suddenly became brighter than before, and at the same time, the grass began to chatter.

The person who made the sound must be a person. I was overjoyed and hurriedly walked over.

Then I saw a mass of dark green light rise from the grass, and then a dark green face.

That face was not Soo Soo's!

My hair stood on end and my whole body felt like it had been electrocuted. I subconsciously wanted to run away.

However, just as he was about to turn around, he was hit on the shoulder by a pole and fell to the ground with a stuffy groan.

I struggled to get up from the ground, and then I heard a rush of noise around me.

Then I saw a jumbled flash of light. Soon, the spot where I was lying was illuminated.

I could see that I was surrounded by a group of people. Most of the flashlight beams hit my face, making it hard for me to open my eyes.

I asked them who they were, and then I heard a familiar voice: Or you, boy!

I instantly recognized that voice. It was Zhao Wu.

I felt a chill in my heart. I didn't know why he would suddenly appear in this place.

Then I felt a pain in my scalp, and my hair was pulled up from the ground.

Zhao Wu grabbed my hair tightly and looked at me ferociously. "You two bastards of the Wu family dared to dig my son's grave after kidnapping a member of my Zhao family. You must be living for too long!"

As I said that, a Fist of Heart strikes on my chest.

I fell to my knees, almost choking.

Zhao Wu asked me, "Where is that lowly girl's corpse? Where is my son's body? Did you take it away from me?!"

I said I didn't know. I didn't do anything. However, Zhao Wu didn't believe it at all and kicked me in the face.

My eyes went blurry from the kick, and I almost fainted.

But Zhao Wu didn't have any intention of stopping. He grabbed my hair, dragged me to his son's grave and shouted angrily, "If it wasn't you, then what are you doing here at night? If it wasn't you, then who else could have dug this pit!"

In a trance, I did indeed see a big hole in front of Zhao Quan'er's grave that could let a person in and out.

My heart sank. I felt that my guess was right. Soo Soo must have been hiding here.

Soo Soo had told me earlier that she had escaped at the last moment, so Zhao Wu must not have known that she was still alive.

That's why I had to hide it from him. Otherwise, Soo Soo would be in danger.

So I gritted my teeth and told him that I didn't know anything and that this pit had nothing to do with me.

Zhao Wu obviously didn't believe me. After kicking me a few times, he waved his hand and called out to those people, "Lift him up. I want to see how hard Old Wu's family members can be."

I was tied to a thick stick like a pig and carried home.

My father was startled when he saw me being carried back. He quickly asked, "Fifth Brother, what's wrong?"

Zhao Wu slapped my father in the face and said, "You old boneless son of a bitch, your family is all just eating red meat and white feces."

He hit my dad until blood foamed up from the corner of his mouth and he didn't dare to retaliate.

Let him put me down. I want to fight him.

Don't be angry, Fifth Brother, my father said timidly. What did he say? There must be some kind of misunderstanding.

Zhao Wu spat: What a mistake, I say your family is already like a dog. Your little bastard kidnapped my daughter-in-law, and I didn't do anything to you, did I? Now that you dare to dig my son's grave, your family will look down on you, right?

My father turned pale with fright and asked me what was going on.

I was going crazy, screaming that I was going to sue him in court.

Zhao Wu chuckled and said, "Okay, put him down. I'll watch him sue."

As soon as they let me go, I rushed out the door.

But after rushing a bit I stopped again, because those people had no intention of stopping me at all.
