Chapter 67: Worship the Divine Beast
Xiao Ji hurriedly asked his son what was going on?
The son said there was an earthquake in his home.
As he spoke, the phone was disconnected. Xiao Ji hurriedly dialed it again, but he couldn't get through. She hurried to watch TV, only to learn that a major earthquake had just occurred in Sichuan, with countless deaths and injuries.
Xiao Ji called the ring woman again, but he couldn't get through.
Xiao Ji's heart burned all day, and he still couldn't get through after calling many times, and he couldn't sleep late at night.
At about three o'clock in the morning, she finally fell asleep.
She dreamed that she was wearing a costume and came to the hairy dog cave again. She hid behind a large rock, and from a distance she saw the Demon Venerable standing next to the unskinned phoenix hanging from the stove, laughing wildly. The phoenix was covered in blood, with its eyes closed, and in great pain. The stove is blazing.
After a while, the masked men under the Demon Venerable came with a group of people. There were men and women in this group, as if they were dead, their faces were as dead as ashes, and there was no expression at all.
Demon Venerable glanced at the group and muttered to his men for a while. His men brought the group to the stripped phoenix and threw them into the furnace one by one. Suddenly, the stove burned brighter and brighter, making a "crackling" sound, and the cave was filled with the smell of burnt human flesh.
Xiao Ji quickly covered her nose and was about to leave when a black shadow appeared in front of her.
She looked up and saw that it was the Demon Venerable. She was about to escape, but the Demon Lord grabbed her, flew to the stove, and threw her to the ground. Then he burst out laughing.
"Yang Fei'er, do you know who those people were just thrown in?"
Xiao Ji stared at him viciously: "What bad things have you done again?"
"It's not that I've done a bad thing this time, it's that the land princess is angry, and I'm just fanning a little fire. Demon Venerable said in front of Xiao Ji as he shook his head and walked around.
Then he turned his head to look at Xiao Ji and said lightly, "I just asked them to take some of your clansmen away." ”
Xiao Ji was taken aback, and she suddenly remembered the phone call her son had given her.
She stood up abruptly and flew to the side of the Demon Venerable, suddenly with a long sword in her hand, she pressed the sword against the Demon Venerable's throat: "Say, have you hurt my family?"
A number of masked people suddenly flew down from above, all of them holding swords, staring at Xiao Ji and surrounding her.
Demon Venerable gritted his teeth in anger: "You slut, you are getting bolder now, you dare to do this to me." If I hadn't taken you in and taught you spells, you would have been gone!"
"I don't know what you're talking about, did you hurt my family?" Xiao Ji pressed the sword hard, and a blood mark immediately appeared on the Demon Venerable's neck.
"I just said it, it's none of my business this time!" said the Demon Venerable angrily.
"But why did you throw them into the furnace?" scolded.
"These are dead people, wouldn't it be more interesting to use their flesh and blood to roast your lifeline?" After the Demon Venerable finished speaking, he laughed and left, all Xiao Ji grasped in his hand was an empty black robe.
The other masked men immediately rushed forward and stabbed Xiao Ji with their swords. Xiao Ji hurriedly used his sword to block and retreated, but there was only a stove behind him, and there was no way out.
Demon Venerable sat on the seat above and laughed: "Yang Fei'er, I advise you to be obedient and arrested!"
Just when Xiao Ji didn't know what to do, the phoenix that had shed its skin suddenly opened its eyes, opened its mouth, and spewed a raging flame at the masked people, who all screamed "whoops", threw their swords, and grabbed their burned eyes with their hands.
Xiao Ji took the opportunity to fly to the wooden bridge, jumped off the bridge, fell into the rushing river, and felt a piercing pain.
She let out an "ouch" and woke up, only to find that the quilt was lying on the ground, her head hanging from the edge of the bed, and half of her body was about to fall.
She carefully straightened her body, lay down on the bed again, picked up her phone and saw that it was almost 9 o'clock.
She quickly got out of bed, and at this time the phone rang. It was the woman from the ring who called, and Xiao Ji quickly asked her, how is the family?
Huan Nu said that everyone in the family is fine, but there are more than a dozen people in the clan, and the second father of the hometown has also passed away.
When Xiao Ji heard this, she was very sad, because her second father had always been very good to her, especially when she was studying in a vocational high school in her hometown, he took special care of her.
She quickly dialed Sun Dong's father's phone again, only to learn that the network was all damaged by the earthquake yesterday, and it was only repaired today.
She had another conversation with his son, who cried and said that he was scared and missed her.
Xiao Ji coaxed on the phone for a long time before his son stopped crying.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Ji sighed, washed up as quickly as he could, and ran to the cafeteria for breakfast. Breakfast was long gone. Xiao Ji had to go to the commissary to buy a loaf of bread and walk to the production workshop while eating.
As soon as she reached the door of the workshop, she heard a commotion inside. She hurriedly walked in to see that there were many people in the workshop, talking about something.
She strode forward, squeezing through the crowd to the front.
It turned out that everyone was talking about a bathroom cabinet engraved with a "phoenix" pattern on it, and this bathroom cabinet was a sample of Boss Wang's order.
Master Li said, "It's really strange, didn't I already finish the phoenix pattern yesterday? Why did I come here today, and I didn't have any feathers on my body?" ”
"yes, yes, that's weird?" the other masters chimed in.
"And its eyes, yesterday I made its eyes very large and very expressive, but today its eyes are closed?" Master Li said, pointing to the eyes on the pattern.
"This mythical beast is really a god, could it be that we didn't worship them before we did it. Master Li touched his head and said.
"Well, that makes sense, maybe we should pay our respects before we get to work. Do you have to ask for their consent first?"
"That's it, that's it!"
......
Everyone was discussing lively, and Mr. Cao hurried over when he heard the news. As he walked, he said, "Everybody...... Let...... Let's, don't do ...... Du Wei ...... At...... Here, what to do...... What are you doing...... What are you doing?"
As soon as everyone heard Mr. Cao's voice, they quickly made way for him.
Mr. Cao saw Xiao Ji and asked anxiously, "What...... What...... What's going on?"
Xiao Ji pointed at Master Li and said, "I just came, Master Li knows." ”
Mr. Cao called Master Li to the office and asked about the situation carefully. Then let him go back to the production workshop.
Mr. Cao asked Xiao Ji: "...... you How did you...... Check it out...... Thing...... Huh?"
Xiao Ji said: "I don't know, I've never experienced it!
Manager Yang and Manager Hu also agreed.
So, Mr. Cao arranged for someone to do this.
They invited a Taoist priest and set an auspicious day. A few large tables were placed at the entrance of the factory, and in front of the table were placed the porcelain they bought engraved with the ten ancient mythical beasts, and then some sacrifices were placed, and a few red candles with thick bowls were lit, and some red and yellow large pennants embroidered with gossip patterns were inserted around the table.
The Taoist priest had sparse eyebrows, a ruddy complexion, a purple yang scarf on his head, and a yellow robe embroidered with many divine patterns on the robe, and a gossip map embroidered on the back.
Holding a thin piece of mahogany engraved with a charm, he bowed to the porcelain of the divine beast, chanted words in his mouth, and then jumped up and down.
Xiao Ji looked at the Taoist priest, and then saw that Mr. Cao and the others were standing on both sides in a proper manner, with a serious expression, and couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker.
After nearly half an hour of tossing, the worship was finally over. When the Taoist priest was leaving, Mr. Cao secretly stuffed him with a big red envelope.
The production workshop continued to make samples of Boss Wang's orders, and after a week, nothing strange happened.
