Chapter 228 Gods are like country gentlemen
"this......"
Even with the village chief's experience, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
At this moment, he was a little confused, and couldn't figure out why this powerful He Mozi could be killed by this swordsman? This swordsman didn't look like a god, but just a handsome guy. Could he really have such great ability?
Moreover, the City God just said that even he can't do anything to this River Demon.
That's a monster that even gods can't do anything to. Could it be that this person is also a manifestation of a god?
Not only the village chief, but also the other villagers who accompanied him were the same.
The City God who was hiding in the dark suddenly looked gloomy and ugly.
He could tell at a glance that this person came here to slap him in the face.
Then, the voice of the City God was heard again: "This boy is the incarnation of the River Demon. You should leave immediately."
Hearing this, the villagers suddenly realized what had happened and looked horrified. They didn't dare to look at the swordsman and hurriedly carried the statue back to the village.
Li Changxiao didn't want to make things difficult for the villagers. After all, they were the pitiful people who were being used as tools.
He closed his eyes, and a dream technique flashed. Suddenly, all the villagers trembled, stopped where they were, and entered a state of half-sleep. After that, the villagers threw all the statues on the ground and walked towards the village in a daze.
These villagers were dragged into the dream by Li Changxiao, who then controlled them through sleepwalking and walked towards the village.
And the more than twenty statues were naturally thrown here.
Wait until the villagers go away.
More than twenty people walked out of the darkness. If you look closely at their appearance, they are at least seven points similar to the twenty or so statues worshipped by the villagers. The only difference is that they are not as ethereal as the statues, but look no different from mortals.
"Fellow Daoist, isn't this behavior a bit too much?" The man who looked like the City God statue said in a cold voice.
"Too much?" Li Changxiao sneered, "You treat the people like pigs and dogs, and drive and use them like this. Isn't that too much?"
"The bronze body of the river mother is actually a female corpse, right? The woman's eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to the river mother's, and she happened to be pregnant, so you came up with this vicious plan."
"Use this to divide up the incense here."
Li Changxiao finished his words calmly.
This matter is not complicated. He already has a general idea that everything in this village is orchestrated by someone behind the scenes.
The so-called "River Demon Child" is actually a secret method of "giving birth to a child from a corpse". The woman who is sealed in the bronze body of the River Mother is subjected to this secret method, which allows the child in her belly to survive by relying on incense and fire. When the child grows to a certain size, it will burst out of the belly.
The "corpse-born child" raised by this secret method will specifically attack people who have offered sacrifices to it.
The reason why it likes to eat intestines is that when it is in the stomach, there is nothing to eat, so it starts to gnaw on the intestines, developing a eating habit, so it specifically opens its stomach to eat the intestines.
Li Changxiao looked at them.
These people's cultivation is not high, and they are only in the early stage of Yuanying. They barely pass the bottom line of playing with incense. This secret technique of raising "corpse-born children" has a faint shadow of the Corpse King Sect. Li Changxiao asked: "I have some fate with the Corpse King Sect. If any of you are from the Corpse King Sect, please report your name quickly to avoid being killed by me later."
As he spoke, he drew his sword calmly.
The twenty or so people on the opposite side had slightly changed expressions. "For such a small matter, you actually want to fight with us? Aren't you tired of living?"
They were all surprised. Not only did they not want to waste their spiritual energy, but they also felt that this person had an extraordinary aura and seemed like someone who was not easy to mess with.
But Li Changxiao was also a ruthless man who didn't talk much. He just rushed over with sword in hand. His speed was so fast and his power was so great that he injured several people in just a few breaths, showing his unparalleled strength.
A man with an inch-long haircut opened his mouth and uttered a word, which uttered a mysterious sound. He knocked Li Changxiao back several meters away. His long sword pierced into the ground, leaving a long sword mark.
Li Changxiao was slightly surprised. He was very familiar with this melody. Wasn't this the mysterious sound of the Wanji Secret Realm?
This person is the genius of Jiuxiang Temple.
The man with the short hair looked unhappy, "Daoyou, we are just trying to find a way to survive. You are really going too far."
Li Changxiao heard this and brushed off the dust on his body, "Just to seek a way to survive?"
"There are tens of thousands of ways to prolong life in the world, and there are also tens of thousands of ways to obtain incense. You are all crowded into one village, driving the people like pigs and dogs. Is it really just to survive?"
Li Changxiao asked back.
There is another reason behind this.
If it was just to prolong life or to cheat some incense, Li Changxiao would not bother to care. After all, one should not advise others to be good without experiencing their suffering. He did not need to worry about his lifespan, so naturally he could not understand the sorrow of the cultivators.
Along the way, he saw temples and various kinds of incense everywhere, but he never interfered.
But this place is different.
This place is not only about defrauding incense offerings, but also involves disputes among monks. If Li Changxiao's guess is correct, it is most likely aimed at the River Mother.
Moreover... the method used to defraud offerings of incense here is extremely vile, just like a poor village where more than 20 gentry suddenly swarmed in one day, using force: forcing corpses to give birth to children, and forcing the people to pay continuous tribute.
It's really too overbearing and too evil.
"Fellow Daoist, how about this? We will wait in the village and add another statue of you." said the man who looked like the City God.
Li Changxiao shook his head lightly, and the two sides fought again. The man with a crew cut was about to use Xuanyin, but Li Changxiao spoke first. Three Xuanyin flew out of his mouth, knocking him back more than ten meters, and he hit the tree trunk with a bang.
Everyone's pupils shrank. This person mastered the three mysterious sounds, so his origins must be very deep. Looking at his cultivation level, even if they joined forces, they would still find it difficult to shake him.
Suddenly.
A thin young man shouted, "Daoyou, stop fighting. I am from the Shikui Sect. I am from the Shikui Sect. I was wrong. Let me go. I won't dare to do this again."
Li Changxiao looked at him. How could he have any connection with the Shikui Sect? He was just talking nonsense to see if he could trick them out.
With a smile on his face, he took out a porcelain figure from his arms and said, "Look here."
The man didn't dare to resist and looked over hurriedly. Then he felt his soul being pulled and instantly sucked into the porcelain figure.
The body fell to the ground powerlessly.
When everyone saw this, they found it extremely horrifying and felt hopeless.
This night.
More than twenty golden statues were destroyed.
The golden body turned into gold nuggets.
……
Li Changxiao paid the room fee and ordered a few side dishes to fill his stomach before leaving.
Yesterday, the shopkeeper bought two wild boars in a nearby county. These were real game meat, so there was an extra dish in the inn today. Li Changxiao happened to see it, so he ordered a few ounces of wild boar meat.
Wild boar meat has an earthy smell and needs to be stir-fried with lots of spices to be delicious. It is best to add some wild vegetables and mushrooms. After finishing a plate of wild boar meat, Li Changxiao sat on the chair to rest for a while, and put the remaining food into his stomach bit by bit until he had finished the plate clean without wasting any food. Then he left a few coins and left the inn.
He looked back at the village.
Walking along the nearby river channel upstream, we saw that at the source, someone had manipulated the feng shui, controlled the terrain, and controlled the water flow.
This is why the village often dries up and has to ask God for help.
He wanted to help.
Later I thought about it and decided to leave this matter to the real owner.
So he came to the Hemu Temple in the county and talked about the situation in the nearby villages.
Then, he turned around and left.
