Chapter 736 Sacrifice

Yaeli can indeed easily kill the monsters that harm the village. This is a fact, and the word "easily" is not an exaggeration.

For some reason, his physical fitness has been very good since he was a child. It can even be said to be too good. When he was five years old, he could accidentally trip up an old scalper. When he was ten years old, he could jump from the ground to the roof directly to catch a bird. After that, Even when he accidentally encounters a monster when leaving the village, he can kill it by sticking a branch into its eye socket with his strange muscle memory.

Certain deeds were seen by several villagers. They all opened their mouths, muttering about "son of the fox god" and so on, and then publicized it.

Unfortunately, almost no one believed it and thought it was their crazy words.

Although everyone in this village believed in the Fox God and believed that Yae Ri was the descendant of the Fox God, some unbelievable things still subconsciously felt unacceptable.

After Yaeli realized his specialness, he didn't know why, but he quickly accepted it. As long as he had the strength, it didn't matter whether he was a human or the son of the Fox God.

After that, Yaeli also tried to find monsters to try his hand at, first with the cumbersome pig monster, then with the agile wolf monster, and finally even with the bear monster... Unfortunately, compared to other monsters, there were too few bear monsters. Even though I went deep into the land of monsters today, I still didn't see it. I don't know whether I should call it lucky or unfortunate.

In short, after many experiments, Yaeli found that he was quite powerful. Not to mention the bear demon that he had not found, at least when fighting alone, the pig demon and wolf demon were not a threat to him.

As for those in groups, that's not necessarily the case. If there are many ants, they will kill an elephant. Yazhongli still understands this principle, so every time he sees a group of monsters gathering together, he will still avoid them wisely.

Unfortunately, when I told my sister these facts, she didn't believe them at all.

Yaeli looked helplessly at Yaezakura, who was holding him with both hands and looking at him stubbornly with bright eyes.

Your brother, I'm really not afraid of those monsters... Why don't you believe it?

Is it possible that next time we should find an opportunity to take Yae Sakura to the scene to see how he can easily kill the monster?

How is that possible... Yaeli couldn't bear to bring his sister into that dangerous situation.

"Let's see... Anyway, I have to go find my father later. I can try to ask him for the right to use Ying Fubuki. With the protection of the fox god's spiritual sword, you should be able to relax, right?"

"The Spiritual Sword of the Fox God..."

Yae Sakura was slightly startled. As the next generation of shrine maidens guarding the shrine, she also knew about Sakura Fukiyuki's existence.

As a magical weapon worshiped by the Yae family for generations, its reputation is also self-evident.

The Blade of the Fox God... This is another name given to Sakura Fukiyuki by the Yae family. Only shrine maidens of each generation can use it. Countless monsters have died under its sword.

But Sakura Fukiyuki seems to never be damaged. With the constant replacement of shrine maidens, its blade seems to remain sharp at all times.

Originally, Yae Ri was not allowed to use that spiritual sword according to the rules, but as a "son descended from the Fox God", it wasn't too much to have some privileges, right?

Lord Yae God also acquiesced to this. After his wife died, he also came to Yae Li, stared at Yae Li for a long time with a pair of indifferent eyes, and then asked him to kneel down and worship the Fox God in the main hall where the spiritual sword was enshrined.

As smart as Yaeli, he quickly understood what his father meant.

Because this is also the tradition of each generation of shrine maidens before using Sakura Fukiyuki for the first time. They kneel down and worship the fox god to ask for the right to use the spiritual sword.

If there is no vision while kneeling down, it means that the fox god agrees. However, if unlucky enough, the candlestick is blown over by the wind, then this generation of shrine maidens will not be able to touch the spiritual sword in this life, and can only Rely on ordinary knives to fight those terrible monsters.

By the way, the Yae clan also has a series of sword techniques that match Sakura Fukiyuki, called [Falling Sakura Slash]. There are six techniques in total, which require the shrine maiden to master before reaching a certain age.

Yaeli naturally got the relevant books recording the six styles of [Cherry Falling Slash] from Lord Yae, and learned it early without much effort at all.

In his eyes, this so-called ancestral move is about as difficult as learning to walk for the first time as a baby.

This is also due to his extraordinary talent. Like Yae Sakura, she also studied her sister in her spare time. Until now, she has only learned the fourth style, which is still very rare among shrine maidens in the past. Talented.

"Then...brother, you can't lie. You must borrow the spirit knife before leaving the village!"

After hesitating for a long time, Yae Sakura let go of Yae Ri's hand and said seriously with her little face raised.

Yaeli felt that if he had lied to her, she would probably have to cry to herself.

"Okay, okay...your brother, when did I ever lie to you?" Yaeli rubbed Yaezakura's little head again. This time he was careful not to mess up his lovely sister's hair.

Yae Sakura narrowed her eyes in enjoyment, and her familiar little face once again made Yae Ri feel a little dazed.

I always feel like... I seem to have met my sister in my previous life?

Yae Rin shook his head and put aside the sudden thought. After finally telling Yae Sakura to take good care of Yae Rin, he quickly ran towards the palace where the Yae God Lord was.

……

Crunch————!

In the side hall, Yaeli gently opened the door, only to find that not only the Lord Yae was there alone, but also an old woman with gray hair.

The two of them were sitting opposite each other, and when they heard the sound of the door opening, they both looked over at the same time.

Seeing that it was Yae Li, the Yae God Lord nodded expressionlessly, while the old woman smiled. Her incomplete yellow and white teeth made the corners of Yae Li's mouth twitch.

It's not that he doesn't respect the old and loves the young, but that Yaeli really doesn't like this person, not only because she looks at him with strange eyes every day, as if she is thinking about something every moment, but also because she advocates A certain ritual made Yaeli feel even more unhappy.

Sacrifice... This is a way for the villagers of Yae Village to pray for rain. By killing pure girls who meet a certain age, and euphemistically offering them to the Fox God, they can pray for continuous rain for several days.

However, this bloody method is extremely effective. Every time after killing a poor girl, the gongs and drums are beaten for a while, and the sky will be filled with dark clouds in an instant, and then it will rain heavily enough to support the village for a long time.

This also confused Yaeli and felt that this was unreasonable.

Although he was trained as the next generation of the Yae God Lord, Yae Ri does not believe in the Fox God, not at all. He abides by all kinds of red tape just because he does not want to appear abnormal.

There are still people in this village who regard themselves as a symbol of uncleanness, but they can't let them take advantage of them.
