After performing a wonderful drama of 'inviting the gods to come up', the altar owner returned to the ancestral house of the Ma family on the grounds that the 'three souls and seven spirits' were damaged, and went to retreat with peace of mind.

The villagers who were still stranded at the entrance of the village also got up from the ground one after another; There were even a few bold and thick-skinned young people, and they also stepped forward and touched the ruddy Ma Muramasa......

"Village Chief, Village Chief, after you eat the elixir given by the altar master, it doesn't look like it's really the same!

"That's it, the village chief is now so virtuous...... looks, it looks at least ten years younger! The altar master's 'what kind of fire god pill' is really god! I also have to ask the altar master for one, and my body has been getting weaker ......and weaker lately."

The hot character Ma Village Chief, now taken by the slaked lime medicinal power in his body, has just sweated all over his body, and all his inner and outer clothes are tightly attached to the skin, and he only feels that his whole body is comfortable at the same time, and he is also a little trembling by the cold wind in the middle of the night......

Old man Ma ignored these splashes, just raised his sleeves to wipe the beads of sweat that kept rolling down his forehead, and beckoned to an extremely tall and sturdy man in the distance:

"Don't gather around here, big guys, you have to get up early tomorrow to prepare things for the gods! Niu, we have a lot of strength in our village, and there is no one else waiting for you at home, so you can come and work hard and be responsible for moving the five 'sacrifices' on the cart to the barn and locking them up. When you're done, remember to unload the car and send it to the carpenter's house; The two horses that pulled the cart were also put in the barn...... Oh, and don't forget to feed it! ”

The strong man's urn replied angrily:

"Okay! Then I'll go home first and fill my stomach, and then I'll come to work! ”

After finishing speaking, the villagers who gathered around Old Man Ma also went back to their respective homes; At the entrance of Tiger Neck Village, there was only a carriage that was set on a stake, and the five people in the carriage were 'staring at the meat tickets'.

In fact, judging by the breathing rate and pace amplitude of that Taoist priest alone, it is impossible for him to be a person with kung fu on his body. It can also be said that the entire Tiger Neck Village, except for the bull who 'does not lose his strength', even with Li Le'an or Yan Shuqing's flower fists and embroidered legs, can easily slaughter the entire village.

But it is often this kind of 'simple errand', but it is the most difficult for Shen Gui! He would rather be like the great monk Nian Heng, and fight directly without saying a word; I don't want to deal with these villagers who are powerless and don't have a lot of brains.

After all, one of the main purposes of everyone's westward journey this time was to find out the details of the 'Huashen Sect'. Therefore, although it is easy to kill people, it is impossible to ask for any effective information from the mouth of a dead person.

"Dayan, when the people in the village are completely asleep, you can take Le'an and go to the liar's house to 'stroll' around; Xiao Hui is responsible for going to the village to carefully survey the terrain, and it is best to draw a pattern; Shuqing doesn't need to go anywhere, just stay in the barn; if you are really idle and there are straws left over from the autumn harvest in the barn, you can also tie five straw men of the same size as us..."

When Shen Gui said this, he looked at Yan Shuqing's embarrassed face strangely; After thinking for a while, he shook his head with a smile:

"Well, blame me for not being thoughtful. You are also an eldest lady who grew up in the inner courtyard of the deep palace, how can you learn this kind of rough work! But you can't let a daughter with no experience in the rivers and lakes go to the village to 'step on the plate' near the village...... That's it, you better stay in the barn and gather the straw. ”

After finishing speaking, everyone was just about to discuss their respective 'duties' in detail, when Shen Gui, who was attached to the side of the carriage, suddenly moved his ears slightly, and it turned out that he heard footsteps from far and near. Judging from the reality of the footsteps, this person should be extremely heavy, obviously the cow who had just gone home for a 'supper'.

So, under Shen Gui's gesture, everyone 'passed out' again.

The ox came to the carriage with a straw stick in his mouth and touching his round belly. It seems that both he and the villagers are extremely confident in the 'Trapped Demon Scattering' ordered by the village chief of Nama, as if they are not worried that the medicinal power will dissipate at any time. Now that he is here, he actually chose to unload the car and drink the horse first, instead of checking the 'meat ticket'! It seems that in the eyes of the tiger-neck villagers, the price of the five 'nobles' on the cart can't even compare with the price of two horses!

After the ox was tied to the horse, he walked back and opened the cotton curtain in front of the carriage door, and without even counting the number once, he gritted his teeth and carried the "bucket into a fine" general Qi Hui, and after being pressed out of two breaths, he puffed out his cheeks, clenched his back molars, and walked towards the barn deep in the village......

"This man's strength is really not small, but his brain is not very useful! Why don't you just move us to the barn and lock it up, and just drive the carriage there? ”

Yan Shuqing muttered in a low voice, and then was ridiculed by Li Le'an:

"This eldest lady raised in the inner courtyard of the palace speaks in a different tone! But in the eyes of our ordinary people, this animal is much more expensive than a human being! Didn't you see that the corners of our two colts were all covered with a layer of white foam? This is obviously exhausting! If you walk for another stretch, you may get tired and kill the animals at any time! But if this 'bull' uses his strength, eats a few mouthfuls of food, and sleeps beautifully, he will recover! I advise you, it is better to use the noble status of the eldest princess less to ridicule the suffering of our common people! ”

I don't know which temple's 'common people' this eldest lady of the Dongyou Li family is the 'common man' of which temple!

No matter how strong the cow is, after four round-trips, the thighs still become as soft as noodles. He swayed and picked up Yan Shuqing, who was in the innermost part of the carriage, and panted and dragged the carriage to the gate of the carpenter's house, and then returned to the barn again......

Sure enough, he was a stunned boy, and he didn't have any thoughts of pity at all. Just now, he dumped Li Le'an, and his eyes were full of gold stars; Now he threw Yan Shuqing directly at a barn like a gun, and walked out of the barn without looking at it. As he bent and picked up the big lock on the ground, he made a 'click' sound, and then pulled a pair of broken straw sandals and walked in the direction of his hut......

"Dayan, can you open this outside lock? If not, let's wait until they're all asleep and walk through this window......"

"What do you say?"

Shen Gui was just about to take a look at the ventilation window of the barn, but he didn't expect Qi Yan to be leaning against the pile of straw behind him, fiddling with a rusty copper lock with a stunned expression......

“…… Good craftsmanship! In the future, you will stay away from my silver bag! ”

Shen Gui raised his fingers, and then pulled out Yan Shuqing, who was struggling in the straw pile, and calculated it with everyone......

Early the next morning, the 'Ma Lao Dharma Protector', who had changed into a brand-new robe, came to the barn to inspect the offerings. When he saw the five figures buried in the straw pile, he didn't look deeper, but dropped the big lock with his backhand and walked towards the barn......

"This, it's always a shame to let you do a job! In order to save trouble, you have to leave some tails, who can chase your ass to clean up the aftermath! How can this horse be energetic in eating grass? Isn't this waiting to be strained? ”

After finishing the chanting, the horse protector reached out and summoned a descendant who was carrying water......

"Come on, come on, I've got a new robe today, it's hard to drill into the barn! You kid do the uncle a favor, go in and feed the cattle one more, and add two more bean cakes. These two animals, they are both new, but they were very tired before, and if you don't bother, you won't be able to survive in the first place! ……”

The young man bent down to remove the bucket on his shoulder, rubbing his tender shoulder, and muttered a 'little report' to the horse protector:

"Village chief, that cow can eat more than anyone else, but his work is sloppy than anyone else! Didn't you ask him to feed the animals last night? He must have added a few forks of hay......"

The man muttered as he brought a bench to take down a few bean cakes from the upper level of the barn. Unexpectedly, he just stood on the bench, so he turned around and jumped down again:

"Huh? Don't say it, we've really wronged us this time! He's finished feeding the last two bean cakes...... The village chief, is it the 'bean cake road' of this livestock shed, who forgot it? Otherwise, I'll go home with you, and let's carry another stack of bean cakes, right? ”

Two bean cakes are short, but they are not worth much silver; And in order to record the remaining number of bean cakes, the 'nail road' drawn is not uncommon when I meet a careless guy and remember the number. But from the dung on the ground, it can also be clearly seen that not a single animal in this whole shed has eaten dry food!

"Two bean cakes don't matter, but what kind of thing is this animal diarrhea......? That's it, after worshipping the gods, I will go to Xiayang Village again, and invite the veterinarian Lao He, who lacks eight generations of great virtue, to see the animals! What a good two 'tall horses', it is absolutely impossible to die alive like this! ”

After finishing this business, Ma Muramasa walked to the door of a family in the front village again. The courtyard of this family is very spacious, and it is also a place for women and Taoists to get together and talk and chat on weekdays. Today, because there is a sacrifice to the gods at night, and those melons, fruits, cakes, wine and meat, are prepared in advance by these women. Therefore, all the aunts and aunts have been chatting for a long time.

“…… Let me tell you, it's the 'second widow' of the Zhang family, but his mother is not a serious thing! Yesterday I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, thinking about the window to let in the coolness! But guess what I saw? ”

"What do you see?"
