Chapter 13 Prayer at the City God's Temple
At the foot of the mountain, Eshui Village.
Liu Lezi, who was pecked by the white-haired falcon, although he was not seriously injured, his face was covered with blood and he looked embarrassed, and returned to Eshui Village.
"Cheng Xuan, you dare to ruin my good deeds!"
Liu Lezi gritted his teeth and said a word.
Although he couldn't understand why the white-haired falcon suddenly attacked him, he still subconsciously threw the pot on Cheng Xuan's body.
Especially when he thought that he finally found an opportunity to get Lin Xiangyu's little widow, but because of Cheng Xuan's appearance, he was even more annoyed.
"Cheng Xuan, this waste, you just wait to be ruined in the village!"
Liu Lezi raised his head, as if he had thought of some way to retaliate, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.
......
"It's growing so fast!"
Cheng Xuan carried the hoe and came to the medicine field he had cultivated.
He saw green shoots sprouting from the soil in the medicine field.
Obviously, the rhizomes of the dendrobium he planted yesterday have already sprouted today, just one day later.
If this growth rate is followed, it is estimated that in about a week, this dendrobium can be picked.
"This nourishment technique is really extraordinary......"
Cheng Xuan carried the hoe and sighed silently in his heart.
However, just as he sighed at the subtlety of this nourishing technique, his mind suddenly moved, and he sensed something in the dark.
Cheng Xuan closed his eyes and quietly felt that there was a sound in his ears, like a believer praying in a low voice in a church.
Could it be that someone is praying in the temple of the City God?
Cheng Xuan, who inherited the throne of the City God, thought about it and vaguely understood the meaning of this induction.
However, to get to the City God Temple, even if you take the nearest mountain road, it will take more than half an hour to go.
Just as Cheng Xuan was thinking about how to go to the City God Temple and listen to the prayers of others.
He suddenly remembered that after inheriting the throne of the City God, he had a magical power "fugue technique".
This fugue can shed the soul from its shell, and although it cannot interfere with all things, it can travel thousands of miles in a day.
Cheng Xuan's mind moved, and he directly launched the fugue technique.
In an instant, a violent feeling of falling came, as if the body had fallen out of thin air and fallen into a bottomless abyss.
By the time Cheng Xuan came back to his senses, he was already floating in mid-air.
As for the body, it remained in place, like a shell, without the slightest sign of life.
Cheng Xuan, who was floating in mid-air, stared at his illusory body and understood that he was out of his body.
Without hesitation, after using the iQue, Cheng Xuan illusory moved his body and ran towards the City God Temple on Qiong Mountain.
"So fast!"
Cheng Xuan's body floated above the City God Temple and sighed.
Originally, it was more than half an hour away, but it only took him a few breaths to come directly, and it was really a day trip.
Cheng Xuan's body moved again, and he directly entered the City God Temple.
In the Temple of the City God.
A woman dressed in plain clothes was kneeling down in front of the statue of the city god and telling something.
"It's Lin Xiangyu......"
Cheng Xuan recognized the person who was praying in the City God Temple.
In the state of using the fugue technique, ordinary people are souls who can't see Cheng Xuan's out-of-body body.
However, he still subconsciously attached his soul to the statue of the city god.
After his soul entered the statue of the city god, Cheng Xuan's soul felt a burst of warmth, and at this moment, he seemed to have become a real city god.
"Master Chenghuang, this Liu Leper has been harassing me, a weak woman, for more than half a year, saying that he wants me to be his wife, and he wants to climb over the wall into my yard every night. ”
Lin Xiangyu, who knelt down in front of the statue of the city god, wiped away her tears as she spoke.
Although she is a widow, she values innocence more than anything else.
But because of this Liu Lezi, the village was full of rumors, saying that she Lin Xiangyu couldn't bear the loneliness after Wang Wu's death, and hooked up with the idle gangsters in the village.
Of course, these are all rumors, and Lin Xiangyu has never done anything unrelenting.
However, in the countryside, once such rumors spread, the villagers, whether they are true or not, will take them seriously.
Therefore, the villagers of Eshui Village will look at this Lin Xiangyu with a strange gaze.
Every time Lin Xiangyu walked in the village and faced everyone's eyes, he felt like Ling Chi, life was worse than death.
Even, she really had a few thoughts of suicide.
I see......
Hearing Lin Xiangyu's complaints, Cheng Xuan understood the ins and outs of the matter.
It is also clear that the scene encountered on the mountain road this morning is not accidental.
This Liu Lezi of Eshui Village has bad intentions for Lin Xiangyu, and it is definitely not a day or two.
However, since Lin Xiangyu took the initiative to come to the City God Temple to make a wish, Cheng Xuan, as the City God, took care of this matter.
Not to mention, as the Lord of the City God, he also has to collect incense from believers and condense his true body.
Now, finally a person came to the door to pray.
Cheng Xuan naturally wants to help the other party solve the trouble, absorb the other party as a believer, and condense the incense.
"Master Chenghuang, I'm sorry to disturb you, let you listen to me as a weak woman for so long. ”
After some crying, Lin Xiangyu stood up and thanked the statue again.
There is a saying in the countryside that there is a lot of right and wrong in front of the widow's door.
Therefore, most of the people in the village, except for those men with bad intentions, whether they are men, women, or children, avoid Lin Xiangyu.
So much so that she had a bitterness in her heart, and she didn't even have someone to talk to.
Therefore, Lin Xiangyu came to this City God Temple, on the one hand, to hear from the old people in the village that this City God Temple, which has been abandoned for 60 or 70 years, is very effective. Grant every wish.
More importantly, she wants to express the pain in her heart and no longer bear it alone.
Moreover, Lin Xiangyu has noticed since he walked into this City God Temple that this City God Temple has long been dilapidated, and even the clay sculpture of the City God on the top has more than a dozen obvious cracks on its body, looking crumbling and collapsing at any time.
All in all, this statue of the city god gives people the feeling that it is difficult for the mud bodhisattva to cross the river itself, so how can he respond to his request.
Lin Xiangyu raised his head, took one last look at the clay sculpture of the crumbling city god, and turned around and went down the mountain.
Cheng Xuan's divine soul broke away from the statue of the city god.
He stared at the graceful figure, and slowly walked out of the City God Temple, as the City God, he had already made up his mind in his heart to fulfill the other party's prayer, and not let Liu Lezi, a gangster, harass Lin Xiangyu again.
Then, in the state of fugue technique, Cheng Xuan, who had been in the state of fugue for a long time, was also afraid that his body would have an accident, so he moved his mind and flew towards the cultivated medicine field.
In the medicine field, Cheng Xuan, who was standing stiffly in place with a hoe like a wooden man, slowly opened his eyes.
His soul returned to his body, ending the state of fugue.
But I have to sigh again, in the state of fugue technique, the speed at which his divine soul moves is simply incredible, and the distance of several kilometers is less than a few breaths in an instant.
