Chapter 481: Sacrifice to the Heavens

The villagers who were already not wealthy enough to do this for Shen Liuyue, and now Xuanyuan Zichen and Shen Liuyue have to admire the power of faith.

For the sake of the sacred relics of Yunwu Village, the villagers of Yunwu Village have been passed down from generation to generation and guarded this remote place. In order not to trample on the holy land, they even stayed up all night to confront Xuanyuan Zichen, and they couldn't even take care of their lives.

In this situation, even Xuanyuan Zichen was amazed.

"What are you thinking?"

Xuanyuan Zichen stood with his hands behind his back and stood in the open space outside.

It has rained for the past few days, not much, but it is finely fragmented, and it finally stops, and even the air exudes a sense of humidity.

Shen Liuyue had already found Xuanyuan Zichen standing outside, thinking that he should have his own things to think about, so he didn't bother. But after a long time, seeing that he was wearing thin clothes, he still couldn't help but step forward to care.

While speaking, Shen Liuyue added a coat to Xuanyuan Zichen.

"Is Mayor Mare's health better?" Xuanyuan Zichen didn't seem to hear Shen Liuyue's question, but asked Shen Liuyue about it.

He turned his head and hugged Shen Liuyue into his arms.

"It's much better, then Li Qi is really ruthless, the mayor of the town is not young, and his body is not as good as his prime, and he is still tortured like this. If he hadn't taken the initiative to bring the mayor out and threaten us that day, I'm afraid the mayor wouldn't have been able to find him. Shen Liuyue sighed helplessly.

Even after rescuing the mayor, Shen Liuyue felt that she was derelict in her duty.

What made Shen Liuyue even more frustrated was that they had expected it to be a strange person early on, and they never suspected Li Qi. Who knew that the real murderer was near them, and I don't know how many fancy intestines Li Qi was hiding behind his back at that time.

"It's better." Xuanyuan Zichen's voice is gentle, and he is born to heal people's hearts, and it reaches Shen Liuyue's ears like a spring breeze.

In fact, Xuanyuan Zichen was so docile in front of Shen Liuyue.

Who in this world doesn't say that Xuanyuan Zichen is like a lion, rampage with the spirit of a king, but in front of Shen Liuyue, he is willing to bow down and be a docile cat.

"Don't think about it, it's not your fault that Mayor Mare's arrest is made. Li Qi is already scheming, and if it weren't for us, he would do whatever it took to become the mayor of the town. It was because of us that the mayor was able to save his life. ”

Xuanyuan Zichen seemed to be able to easily see through Shen Liuyue's heart, and just a few words made her settle down.

"I mean, why Richie is so well-off that he wants to stay here. At that time, I admired his original intention, but I didn't expect there to be such a calculation behind it. Shen Liuyue frowned. The thought that Li Qi turned out to be a complete weirdo gave her goosebumps all over her body.

"Business is not as good as an official, Li Qizu's ancestors have been from Yunwu Village for generations, and he doesn't know a few big characters, so how can he enter the court if he doesn't start from the bottom. It's just that the mayor of the town was mixed with officialdom in the early years, and he was above him in both majesty and ability. Li Qi can only become the mayor of the town in a dignified manner by showing some crooked ways, so as to climb higher. Xuanyuan Zichen patiently explained to Shen Liuyue.

Shen Liuyue nodded as if she didn't understand.

This action made Xuanyuan Zichen's heart churn, and he thought to himself that Shen Liuyue was really a kitten, telling him to only think about putting Shen Liuyue on the tip of his heart.

"And." Xuanyuan Zichen raised his eyebrows, and a flash of contempt flashed in his eyes. "I sent Ying Yi to investigate, Li Qi is far more rich than he appears, as for where the money comes from, there is still something to consider. When I return to the capital, you remind me to report to the emperor, so that I can check this person. ”

Or rather, these people.

It's just that the court is deceitful, and Xuanyuan Zichen is different from Shen Liuyue to say too much.

Shen Liuyue was originally kind-hearted and couldn't see the suffering of the world. Especially for him, it is even more obsessed. Xuanyuan Zichen was worried that Shen Liuyue was worried about herself.

"Okay." Shen Liuyue agreed.

Since it is a matter for the little emperor to deal with, it can be imagined that it is meaningful. Shen Liuyue knew that she shouldn't ask more, although she still had some questions, she was all pressed in her heart.

She believes in Xuanyuan Zichen to do things, and Xuanyuan Zichen has always been calm and introverted.

But it seems that only in her affairs, she has repeatedly broken her vows, like a three-year-old child.

The mayor's injuries were much better, and he was gradually able to do things normally, so Xuanyuan Zichen and Shen Liuyue discussed the matter of returning to Beijing.

Since Richie's death, the weirdos haven't been here.

"Are you really going to leave now?" It was the mayor's nephew who came to see off Xuanyuan Zichen and Shen Liuyue. These days, the mayor of the town is sick in bed, and he is helping to deal with the affairs of the village.

A few people walked to the entrance of the village, stopped and said a few words one last time.

"We've been in the village for a few days now, and we've caused a lot of trouble during this time, so I'm going to have to trouble you to take care of it." Shen Liuyue responded to the mayor's nephew with a smile. "The weirdo matter has been settled, the mayor is fine, we should go back."

After saying that, Shen Liuyue raised her eyes and smiled at Xuanyuan Zichen.

"Where are you causing trouble, it's clear that the two of you have helped our village a lot." The mayor's nephew shook his head again and again, refuting Shen Liuyue's humble words.

The man in front of him, Xuanyuan Zichen, also secretly looked at him for several days, and saw that he was honest and neat, so he left with confidence.

Lest there be another copy of Li Qi, whether the mayor of the town is alive or not.

"That's right." Shen Liuyue suddenly remembered something and patted her head. "When you go back, you come into my room, and there is a letter on the desk, and when the mayor takes it over, you take this letter to the mayor and ask him to hold a village meeting and read it to them. This is the only thing I, as a goddess, can do for you. ”

Shen Liuyue knew that the people in the village were stubborn and had a strong sense of faith, so she deliberately wrote the lessons of these days in her heart after thinking about them, and taught them the truth of eating a trench and growing wise.

In addition, a good reason was found for Li Qi's disappearance, so as not to make the people's hearts unstable.

Before we were halfway there, it started to rain heavily.

Shen Liuyue sat in the carriage, but she didn't feel anything. But the wind came in through the slits, and blew coldly on the man.

But the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Shen Liuyue couldn't help but worry about Xuanyuan Zichen who was riding a horse outside. Number Six

She lifted the curtain and poked her head out.

"Stop!"

In the distance, Xuanyuan Zichen sat tall on the horse, soaking all over, still moving forward in the rain.

Shen Liuyue was very worried about Xuanyuan Zichen, even if she was beaten with iron, she couldn't toss like this.

"What's wrong?" Xuanyuan Zichen turned his head, thinking that Shen Liuyue had encountered some problem, so he hurriedly sent someone to ask.

"Don't you have an umbrella? Why is everyone getting drenched in the rain? Shen Liuyue frowned tightly. asked her to stay alone in the sedan chair, and her conscience was disturbed.

"Back to the princess, our martial arts practitioners are in good health, don't worry." The guard's tone was categorical and sonorous. "The sword mountain and the sea of fire have all been broken, not to mention a mere rain."

The corner of Shen Liuyue's eyes swept towards Xuanyuan Zichen, her eyes full of worry.

But...... How reassuring Shen Liuyue was.

Just as Shen Liuyue was stalemate, hoping that everyone would find a place to hide from the rain first, suddenly a group of black-clothed people rushed around. It was an empty mountain road, with cliffs on the left and hillsides on the right, and no one expected that there would be an ambush here.

Faintly, Shen Liuyue only heard Xuanyuan Zichen's voice, he was asking someone to protect Shen Liuyue.

In the blink of an eye, Fang was still calm, but now they are seeing each other. Bright red blood mixed with rain, and a strong fishy smell permeated the surroundings.

Shen Liuyue was unarmed and couldn't do anything.

Xu is Xuanyuan Zichen was already injured in the arm, and he didn't expect to be calculated, so the two sides gradually struggled to fight.

And Xuanyuan Zichen had only one thought in his mind, Shen Liuyue must not have anything to do.

"Hmm."

Those black-clothed people seemed to know that Xuanyuan Zichen's arm was injured, and the final purpose of all the moves fell on his arm.

One or two Xuanyuan Zichen could still dodge, dozens of people surrounded him, even if there were guards to help, they couldn't stop them from wanting to attack Xuanyuan Zichen's arm. Gradually, Xuanyuan Zichen began to struggle a little.

"Mudslide! Mudslide! ”

I don't know who shouted, Xuanyuan Zichen stared in the direction of the hillside with wide eyes.

Sure enough, there was muddy water mixed with rocks surging down the hillside.

"Ah Yue!" Xuanyuan Zichen's first reaction was not his own safety, but Shen Liuyue.

He didn't care about anything else, and rushed towards Shen Liuyue's sedan chair like crazy.

The black-clothed people around him seized the opportunity and stabbed Xuanyuan Zichen in a swarm.

At this time, Shen Liuyue also noticed something unusual, but before she could see it, her whole body was wrapped in muddy water and rushed down the cliff.

"Ah Yue!" Xuanyuan Zichen used almost all his strength to rush forward.

But the pain in his body and the impact of the mudslide made Xuanyuan Zichen completely unable to move, and he was dizzy and fell to the ground.

All were killed in the mudslide.

"Sss

Hurt.

Shen Liuyue had a splitting headache.

She woke up from a coma and tried to struggle to get up, but her hands and feet ached, as if she had been beaten hard.

There was a harsh voice in her ears, and Shen Liuyue felt uncomfortable when she heard it.

Just listening to the voice, she felt that the person who came was not good.

Immediately afterwards, a basin of biting cold water was poured on Shen Liuyue's body, and Shen Liuyue came to her senses in an instant.

"The witch has finally woken up!" A middle-aged woman with a mean face and even more difficult to deal with was holding her arms with her hands, and snorted coldly when she saw Shen Liuyue. "Everyone said that this demon girl caused the village to suffer a mudslide, but she should be sent to be cremated and sacrificed to the sky!"

No......

Her "demon girl" Shen Liuyue didn't react, and suddenly something caused the village to encounter a mudslide. Shen Liuyue wanted to speak and stopped, wasn't she also a victim of the mudslide?

The water covered Shen Liuyue's long and curly eyelashes, and her hands were tied, and it took a while for her to fully see the scene in front of her.

I saw myself standing on the platform, and the bottom was full of villagers dressed in coarse linen clothes.

And she was tied up with a lot of flowers, and there was firewood all around.

Shen Liuyue could tell that this was definitely not Cloud Mist Village. Good fellow, I managed to get out of one fire pit, and this jumped into another fire pit.

Thinking of Xuanyuan Zichen, Shen Liuyue looked around, but she didn't find him anyway.

"Where's the prince?" Shen Liuyue lowered her eyes and muttered to herself.
