Chapter 126 Return to the Village "Brother, is it the God of Yishan Mountain that you invited?" "Probably not." "Who could that be?" “Not sure.” "Oh." The little sister nodded seriously, "So, brother, have you finished fighting the God Sovereign and the Demon King?" "I will not say." "Hey?" "It should be over now." "So, did the Lord of God get rid of the demon king?" “I don’t know.” Lin Jue shook his head. “The three great gods have descended to the mortal world together. They must have the ability to eliminate the demon king.”
"Oh……" The two men and the fox walked ten miles and came to another village. This place was obviously also covered by the black fog and deathly aura, and had also suffered the disaster. Lin Jue walked through the village and confirmed one fact - Gong Village or the area around Gong Village should really be the center of the heaviest black fog and death. The evil creatures probably received some kind of guidance, at least most of them went to Gong Village. The purpose should be the Taoists from Qiyun Mountain who came to suppress the black fog. Because the black fog here was obviously lighter before, many people just fainted and had not yet had time to turn into evil creatures. There were also obviously fewer evil creatures here, and not many people were injured or killed. Afterwards, the spiritual light dispelled all the black fog and death energy, and the people who were affected but not turned into evil creatures seemed to have recovered. When the fog was cleared and the sky came into view, the people were naturally terrified. They also thought that the previous miracle might have been done by gods, so they all went to the same place. "Where are you going, folks?" "Go to the temple and worship the gods!" "Which God do you worship?" "The Temple of the God! Of course, we are here to worship the God Yili!" "Lord Yili..." Lin Jue looked thoughtful. Suddenly, he remembered the joke he had made with his third senior brother before, saying that if the Lord God could really wipe out the Demon King, they would all look up to him in the future, and would definitely go in and burn incense when they came across his temple. Now, not only did the God come down to the mortal world to clear out the demons, but he also came much faster than they expected. Although it is still unknown whether the Demon King will be annihilated by the God, even if the extermination fails, it is only because the Demon King's scheming and preparations for this far exceeded the expectations of the gods and Lin Jue, and not because the God was deliberately procrastinating. It just so happened that Lin Jue had some doubts. So he stopped, turned his head, and followed the group of people. The junior sister stared at him and followed him. The fox had already jumped ahead and turned back.
There is a small path along the stream out of the village, leading to a small slope. On the slope is a small vermilion temple. The arch in the middle and the round windows on both sides look very much like human facial features. Lin Jue followed the people upstairs. Soon I smelled a strong smell of cigarettes, and soon I heard crying and praying. "God bless you..." "God, please save my son..." "My Lord..." The numerous voices seemed to float up into the sky along with the green smoke. Lin Jue stood at the entrance of the temple and looked inside. The temple is really small, and there is not much room for many statues. There are two guardian gods on the left and right of the entrance. They are tall and strong, with their heads almost touching the beams. They are wearing mountain-patterned armor and bright red cloaks. One of them had a sword inserted horizontally behind his waist, one of his hands was placed in front of his forehead with his sword fingers together, and the other hand was behind his back holding the hilt of the sword, as if he could cast a spell or draw the sword at any time. Another of them was holding a thick iron chain, with the iron chain and steel spikes dragging on the ground. The god leaned forward, his eyes wide open, staring at the person walking towards the door below. Lin Jue knew that these two were the two generals of thunder and fire under the command of Lord Yili, and there were divine patterns of fire and thunder on their robes respectively. On the altar directly in front is naturally Lord Yili. He was still dressed in the same attire of the divine armor with mountain patterns inside and the divine robe with five-colored colors outside, but here he was sitting upright. But on both sides behind him, there were two smaller statues, one male and one female. Lin Jue only knew that this was his child before. Glancing around, I saw that in addition to the people kneeling and praying in the temple, there was another person standing nearby. He didn't move and didn't seem to be waiting for anyone. Instead, he kept handing incense to people, as if he was a temple priest who took care of the temple. "Are you a temple priest?" "What's wrong with the Taoist priest? Are you here to burn incense as well?" "Yes. We are Taoists from Mount Yi. We passed by the temple of the God and came here to burn some incense." Lin Jue nodded and looked at the God again. "Suddenly, I felt a little confused and wanted to ask the temple priest for advice." "Master, please tell me. If you ask about the strange things that happened this morning, I don't know anything about it." The temple keeper also looked exhausted and very tired. "It's about the God." Lin Jue said, "Our Taoist temple only has the statue of Jade Mirror Emperor, so we don't know what the God's name was before he attained enlightenment." "My surname is Jiang, and my taboo name is Chao." "River……" This word flashed through the minds of Lin Jue and his junior sister at the same time. "Who are the two people beside the Lord God?" "He is the God's servant." "Are there any legends?" "Legend has it that they were a pair of siblings before the Lord became a god. After the Lord attained enlightenment, they ascended to heaven with him. I don't know if it's true or not."
"Can you have a name?" "I don't know my real name, I only know that one is to see the moon and the other is to shine on people." "Jiang Zhaoren..." Such a thought flashed through Lin Jue’s mind. "Thank you, Your Majesty." "You're welcome." Lin Jue took out copper coins from his bag, exchanged them for grass incense, lit three incense sticks for Lord Yili, and then left. Gradually walked out of the mountain village and onto the official road. "Brother, do you think other brothers will encounter danger when they go down the mountain to fight monsters?" "My brothers are experienced and well-versed, so there is no need to worry too much." "Brother, you said..." "Junior sister." "what happened?" The junior sister looked at Lin Jue in confusion. Lin Jue has stopped. "Junior sister, you should go back to the mountain first. Report to Master, be careful on the road, and don't linger." Lin Jue said to her, "Recently, demons have been everywhere in Huizhou, and I don't know if the other three places full of death have been released or if any gods have come to deal with them. I am worried about my uncle and the neighbors, so I have to go back to take a look." "Oh!" The junior sister nodded, understanding, then frowned and asked uncertainly: "Should I go back and take a look?" "I don't think it's necessary." "Hey, I think so too." "We are the farthest away, so don't let Master worry. It will take me at least half a month to go back and forth even if I walk fast." "it is good!" On a government road, both men summoned out their paper donkeys and walked on the left and right. The fox naturally followed Lin Jue. When there were many people around, it would walk along the roadside in small steps or shuttle through the forests beside the road. If there was no one on the road, it would jump like the wind between the treetops beside the road. Not long after walking, I heard a shout from behind. "Brother!" Lin Jue was stunned and looked back. It was none other than my own junior sister.
I don't know when she ran back, panting, her face red, and even her hair stuck to her forehead. "Junior sister, why are you back?" "Brother, I'll go to your house with you!" "Why are you going with me? Didn't I ask you to go back and report to Master so that Master can be at ease?" "I want to go with you! And just now I walked a short distance and met Taoist Master Jiang Ning. She asked me to tell you something, so I came back to find you." "what's up?" The junior sister, however, was mysterious and looked left and right. They were now on the official road, far away from the area previously shrouded by black fog and deathly aura. Although the surrounding area had been very chaotic in recent days, there were still people walking together on the road. I guess they were all people who had to come out to make a living. "Come this way..." The junior sister took him away from the official road and brought him to a big tree on the side of the road, then she approached him. Lin Jue frowned. It feels a little strange. From the corner of his eye, he saw his own fox standing beside him, also staring at his junior sister, with his head tilted as if in deep thought. "Ah~" An uncertain fox cry. Lin Jue subconsciously grasped the hilt of the sword. A cold light flashed in an instant. If it were someone else, without Fuyao's reminder, they might not be able to react. Even if they reacted, it would be difficult to dodge the sharp claws of the people around them if they leaned against a big tree. Fortunately, Lin Jue has his own abilities. In the eyes of "Junior Sister", the person in front of her took a step back. There was clearly a big tree behind him, and he should have had no way to retreat, but his figure disappeared directly into the tree. The next moment, a long sword stabbed out. The "Junior Sister" showed a look of fear and tried to dodge behind her, but another fox pounced on her from behind. With a bang! The "Junior Sister" exploded into a cloud of black smoke. A strange bird flew out of the black smoke, flapping its wings hard to fly upwards, but was eventually stabbed by the sword. The Taoist priest emerged from the tree again. Lin Jue was just about to ask what kind of monster this was, not only daring to kill him halfway, but also able to transform into the appearance of the junior sister, and become so similar, even speaking without any major flaws. As soon as he saw this strange bird, he immediately understood what it was. The Rakshasa Bird of Ogawa Village! Some thoughts flashed through my mind quickly—— Could it be that there were more than three Rakshasas in Ogawa Village at that time? Your thoughts may change, but they do not affect your actions. As soon as he opened his mouth, a burst of spiritual fire came out. How much progress has the Taoist made in the past two years?
At first, when he spit out ordinary fire, it burned the Rakshasa bird, but the damage was only slightly better than no damage. Now, when he spit out spiritual fire, it also only burned it, but it made the strange bird scream. It had just flown a short distance and didn't fly very high when it suddenly fell down. "Puff puff..." After flapping its wings desperately, it finally flew up again. Then the spell was chanted. Several darts were shot out quickly, chasing after the strange bird. It flapped its wings frantically and dodged quickly in the air, but was still hit by the dart, dripping black blood and dropping feathers. Before it could even catch its breath, a white fox jumped up from the ground like flying. The figure is so graceful and light. But the fox's claws and teeth are merciless. "Gah!" The strange bird fell down immediately. Lin Jue took up his sword and left. The fox was holding the strange bird, and the strange bird turned its head to look at him, as if it knew its fate, with a look of resentment in its eyes: "You Taoist priest are so lucky! The foxes in Li Village can't do anything to you, and the Li Zu in Gong Village can't do anything to you either. Even the demon king's death energy, you managed to escape by chance!" “Are you from Ogawa Village?” "I hate it!" Lin Jue knew as soon as he heard it that his guess was correct. It should be that one of the Rakshasa birds in Xiaochuan Village was missed at that time, and after stealing the life force, this Rakshasa bird secretly resented it. It may not know that the demon king's death energy exists here, but it knows that there is a fox group Lizu here. The villagers of Licun and Gongcun heard about Yishan and came to Fuqiu Peak of Yishan to invite the Taoist priest, most likely because of its shadow, thinking that the Taoist priest came here to eliminate the demon and avenge him. This evil creature understood some human nature. It must have known that the deathly aura that was spreading everywhere would harm one side and would attract the gods, so it fled from the area within dozens of miles and was able to survive. Lin Jue had long known that Rakshasa birds held grudges, and he had also experienced the hatred that another Rakshasa bird had for Zhang Da. But I didn't expect that he would hold a grudge until now. These evil creatures nurtured by heaven and earth are very strange in themselves, regardless of their combat power, but their vengeance is also a flaw. The last one died on this. This one must have died from this. "Where's my little sister?" "He is dead!" "laugh!" Lin Jue thrust out his sword and pierced the strange bird. Suddenly, spiritual fire ignited all over its body. A shrill scream rang out on the mountain road, scaring the passers-by.
In the blink of an eye, only a pile of ashes remained on the ground. Lin Jue took out the magic pill without hesitation. When facing the evil things all over the ground in Gong Village, Lin Jue was reluctant to use them, but now he stuffed them into his mouth without hesitation. Then, under the astonished gaze of the pedestrians who were traveling together in the distance, the Taoist took a step and covered a distance of two or three meters. His figure stepped on the tops of the flowering white-tasseled balsam, and through the withered and yellow weeds, and sometimes stepped on the branches of the poplar and cypress. Behind him, there was a fox jumping and following him in the same way. They turned the winding mountain road into a straight road, and sometimes they were not even on the road at all. In the eyes of outsiders, the Taoist priest is ethereal and looks like a god. However, not long after walking, I saw another figure coming from the opposite side, from the left side of the road. Both sides turned their heads and looked at each other in surprise. Then they stopped at the top of the tree and looked at each other. "Senior brother?" "Junior sister?" "Well... Senior Brother, what was the first meal you cooked?" As soon as the little sister asked, she put aside all distracting thoughts. "Blanket surface." "Really, Senior Brother!" "Did you encounter it, too?" "how do you know?" "Otherwise, why would I have wasted a Shenxing Pill?" "Yes!" The little sister understood instantly, and glanced at the fox jumping behind him, and then she was relieved, "Just now that thing changed into the appearance of my senior brother, I don't know why its mind reading ability is not working well, it came to trick me and wanted to harm me, but I was suspicious, because it only had my senior brother and no Fuyao, so when it reacted, it ran away." "IM about the same." "I'm glad you're okay, brother..." "You are." "Then now..." The junior sister stood on the branch and stared at him. "You'd better not go back to the mountain alone. Come with me." "Then Master..." "He can use the spirit writing brush and guess for himself." "Ok!" The junior sister nodded obediently, not thinking about him at all, but just frowned and gritted her teeth, feeling that she had wasted two magic speed pills. It hurts so much.
But since we’ve already eaten it, we can’t waste it. This is a good opportunity to hurry on my journey and travel with the wind. Become a god for a short time. …… Last day! Please support me with your monthly pass! (End of this chapter)
