Chapter 42: Pulling Weeds

After Tang Xiaobai expressed his affirmation, Xuan Gui hurriedly nodded, looking at Yan Lian and his wife with an expression of "look at what I said".

There are never absolute things in the world, and he dislikes people who make judgments without investigation.

Yan Lian and his wife didn't believe it when they heard Xuangui's words, but now that they see Tang Xiaobai admitting it, they can't help but have some self-doubt.

Maybe the people of the fire-weary country are wrong, and it is not known - after all, no one can stay by the pond every night to check the changes, right?

Maybe one day instead of turning the water into sulphuric acid, a fish swims in?

Yan Lian thought so, and also asked the fire-weary people next to her.

After hearing this, the other party shook his head again and again and said that it was impossible, and there were records in their historical books, and there were ancestors who stayed by the pond for decades to record changes, and the records showed that there was no day and night when the water in the pool did not turn into sulfuric acid but swam a fish.

Tang Xiaobai thought about it for a while, seemed to understand a little, and said softly, "That's it, let's discuss this matter later, let's take us to the God of War Temple first." ”

Yan Lian nodded and said yes, and explained the reason to the people of the fire-weary country, and immediately some clansmen stood up and happily led the way for them, it seemed that there were guests who went to pay homage to the holy place they were proud of.

"What God of War Temple?" Hyun Gyu asked curiously as he followed.

Yan Lian then told him the content of Shicai's chat again.

"Ghost grass. Hyun Gyu looked at Xiaobai with a knowing expression, "Anyway, you want that grass, but the people of the Fire Disgust Country won't give it?"

Tang Xiaobai nodded.

"What's so worrying about this, it's easy to do. Hyun Gyu just came.

Xu Shanqing rolled his eyes and asked angrily, "I don't know what your opinion is?"

"Grab it. Hyun Gyu spread his hands. Sure enough, a stupid person is a stupid person, and he can turn a blind eye to such a simple and clear method.

Yan Lian smiled bitterly, "No, this will cause public anger." ”

Xuan Gui snorted, and was about to say something more about his self-created Xuan Yan Xuan Yu to refute her, when Yu Guang suddenly caught a glimpse of Tang Xiaobai's disapproving gaze, and subconsciously silenced.

Think about it again, what doesn't seem right......

Why do you want to look at her face??

Xuan Gui, who finally reacted, had a dark face, and was about to speak again, but he heard Yan Lian's serious voice coming, "This is the Temple of the God of War." ”

The fighting spirit of the god of war Hyun-gyu instantly soared. Here, let him take a good look at what this god of war looks like, whether it is eight hands or sixteen legs.

Hyun Kyu's long legs and long steps were also big, but in three or two steps, he shook off everyone and entered the Temple of the God of War first, and when everyone entered, he was already standing in the hall with his arms folded, looking up and down the statue with a scrutinizing eye.

"It's not much to look at. Hyun Gyu said dissatisfied. This statue not only does not have three heads and six arms, but even its facial features are blurred. You say that this group of uncivilized fire-weary people don't even know what the gods they worship look like, so what else is there to worship?

Hyun Gyu thinks so, but the people of the Fire Disgust Country don't think so. In their hearts, the reason why the statue of the god of war is not engraved with facial features is because they believe that the face of the god of war is not something that mortals can peep into.

The admiration and reverence for the god of war of the people of the fire-weary country are often instilled in their minds from birth, and over time, they have long been extremely sacred, and they cannot be tarnished by the half. At this time, after entering the temple, they immediately knelt and kowtowed to show their piety. Even Yan Lian and Xu Shanqing, who had lived here for more than ten years and were imperceptibly affected, were kneeling on the ground at this moment, silently thanking the God of War for creating this place back then, and actually saving their lives thousands of years later.

At present, there are only two people still standing in the temple, Tang Xiaobai and Xuan Gui.

Xuan Gui naturally didn't care, but Tang Xiaobai just glanced at it lightly, her mind was not on the statue of the god of war, her eyes had already been attracted by the grass growing in front of the altar.

The one with its crimson stems, its leaves emitting a faint green glow, and there was no ghost grass on its body that didn't have a sense of demonization.

With it as the center, there is not a single living plant within a distance of ten zhang in the surrounding area. It's as if as long as it grows here, no other plants are allowed around.

Hyun Gyu also followed her gaze at this time, and saw that the rumored ghost grass was blooming in front of the altar at this moment, and with a sigh, he jumped on the altar and was about to reach out and pull it.

When the fire-weary people who were kneeling on the ground saw his actions, they were so frightened that they forgot to pay homage to him, and immediately all of them rushed up to try to stop Hyun Gyu's next move.

"Poof", Hyun Gyu gently plucked the ghost grass, pinched the red stem with his fingertips and looked carefully in front of his eyes, his eyes flashed with a cunning light, as if he was a child who had gotten a toy that shouldn't have belonged to him.

Seeing this, the people of the fire-weary country were stunned for a long time, and when they reacted, they knelt on the ground and cried, and they couldn't tell what they were whimpering with.

Yan Lian also pointed at Hyun Gyu with a sad and angry face, "You pulled out the holy grass today, and the divine punishment is about to come to the world." ”

"Huh", Xuan Gui let out a disdainful sneer, his finger slightly turned the ghost grass stem, and he pointed to the statue of the god of war in front of him and asked Yan Lian, "Who punishes her?"

Hyun Gyu snorted, "What a joke." How can she say that she is also an immortal who once saved the people of the fire-weary country from the hands of the demons in an upright manner, and now what kind of divine punishment will be imposed because of a small ghost grass? If this is the case, then she is a fairy with a small belly and chicken intestines, I don't think there is any need to worship this faceless god of war statue anymore, forget it. ”

Yan Lian listened to his words and deeds becoming more and more perverse and presumptuous, and her face couldn't help but turn a little pale, for fear that this young man would cause trouble again, so she had to soften her voice and persuade bitterly, "This joke must not be opened." As he spoke, he glanced at Tang Xiaobai beggingly, hoping that she would come forward to take care of Xuangui.

Tang Xiaobai nodded and said, "This is reasonable." ”

Hyun Gyu was triumphant, "What I said doesn't make sense?" He raised his hand and touched his chin, and after some careful study, he pointed to the statue of the god of war and added, "Here, you should set up my statue next to me." ”

Tang Xiaobai looked at him with a smile, "Don't get an inch." ”

Hyun Gyu said seriously, "You see, she has always stood here alone, alone, and now thousands of years have passed, and it is inevitable that she will be lonely." But wouldn't it be nice if we could add more people to the side, and the two of them would be worshiped together?"

Tang Xiaobai shook his head, "Fallacy, you have no merit." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard a gloomy howl suddenly sounded, which was like a flint that ignited a fire, and in an instant, the mountains and fields burned with this gloomy howl that looked like a wolf but not a wolf.

When the people of the Fire-weary Nation heard this howl, they all collapsed to the ground as if they had lost their souls, whimpering in their mouths, tears streaming down their faces, and their bodies still trembling.

It can be seen that they are familiar with this voice, and at the same time they are afraid.

Not only them, but even Yan Lian and his wife changed their faces when they heard this roar, and said in a deep voice, "It's not good, it's a disaster." They must have escaped again. ”

Everyone present either sank into the water or were terrified, but Hyun Gyu's eyes lit up when he heard the word "calamity", and he said with a smile, "My merit has come." ”

After finishing speaking, he threw the ghost grass in his hand into Tang Xiaobai's arms, and rushed out like a bolt of lightning.
