Chapter 244: Confrontation at the ancestral hall, burning himself
Outside the ancestral hall of Xiaozhuang Village, the wooden-looking villagers are holding hoes, shovels and other farm tools outside the ancestral hall in twos and threes, at this time, in the ancestral hall, He Yunfei and Chen Kexin are confronting the villagers inside, and Zhang Rujun has been taken down by the villagers and pressed to the ground.
On the dirt slope a few meters away from the gate of the ancestral hall, the spirit dog made of rune paper has fallen to the ground, I don't know, the head seems to have been shoveled half of the side, but the mad thing is that there is no flesh and blood flowing out, but a terrifying and hideous flat wound, the strange thing is that those villagers still look at the direction of the entrance of the ancestral hall as if they didn't see it.
Yu Ruibao, who was standing in front of the crowd, was injured on his arm, and the bloodstains stained his sleeves red, I saw him looking at the direction of the door with a calm expression, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
In the ancestral hall, He Yunfei and Chen Kexin looked abrupt, standing at the door in tattered clothes, He Yunfei was holding a steel bar that he didn't know where to pick up, one end was rusty, the other end was very sharp, and there was a trace of blood on it, while Chen Kexin was holding a broken shovel wooden handle, which had been split on it, and the sharp wooden strips were uneven, and the eyes of the two were not as smart as those of living people, but full of helplessness and wooden looks.
In fact, He Yunfei and Chen Kexin here were transformed by the real He Yunfei with the secret method of Longhu Mountain with rune paper, for them, the meaning of appearing here is to lure these villagers away, although they don't know what means they are controlled by, but for them who are eager to catch He Yunfei, they don't care if what they are really looking for in front of them, they just know that the breath is right.
But as a rune paper, being able to be transformed by Heyunfei's spirit, even if it is only for a very short time, is extremely cherished, so they did try their best to escape at the beginning, but because they were not familiar with the terrain, and those villagers who were controlled were not afraid of their eccentricity at all, they were finally forced to go to this corner of the ancestral hall.
In fact, it is said that it is the ancestral hall, which is a few large houses with red tile wooden beams, and there is a stone tablet in front of the ancestral hall, which enshrines the clay statues of the ancestors in the village and the tablets of several surnames.
This is also the reason why they came here as the talisman people who were incarnated into these two paper runes, but after coming, the two had no way to escape, so they could only confront the villagers here, and in addition to Chen Yang, who was unlucky at the beginning, he was incinerated and turned to ashes, Zhang Rujun and Po Xie were also successively captured or killed by Yu Ruibao commanding the villagers.
This is also the fundamental reason why Chen Kexin and He Yunfei are unwilling to confront these villagers, for them, these villagers are innocent, but under the control of the mastermind behind the scenes, they have become accomplices of the evil forces, but they can't hurt them, plus they are all living people, which makes them unable to use many Dao methods on these villagers at all, and it is a loss if they are really right.
Therefore, in this situation, He Yunfei did not hesitate to use his own mana to cast the paper rune into a spirit, for them, the most important thing now is time, after the paper rune lured these villagers away, so that they can investigate the truth behind the scenes without any worries, so as to correct the mastermind behind the scenes and find the reason for the disappearance of the White Crane Daoist.
As Fu people, they obviously didn't want their short lives to end here, so on the way to escape, they had a fierce conflict with the villagers led by Yu Ruibao, and also injured several villagers with their nimble skills.
It's just that when Chen Kexin, He Yunfei and others were besieged by ten thousand rats, the array soul seemed to notice the abnormality, and after a black gas submerged into the body, it quickly disappeared in place, and the remaining villagers did not leave, but still confronted the two runes inside and outside the door, as long as the villagers dared to break in, the two runes would attack them with a deadly hand.
Although it is said that these villagers are also not afraid of death after being controlled by the evil qi, there are always certain restrictions, coupled with the fear of the breath on He Yunfei and Chen Kexin, so they did not attack frantically at the first time, but because Ruibao deceived and persuaded the two Fu people outside, wanting them to take the initiative to come out.
"Crane Dao Chief, if you don't come out again, I will really set it on fire, and then you two don't have to come out, now as long as you come out, what you just said will still be valid, and then you will be the hero of our entire village, you can do whatever you want us to do!" Yu Ruibao looked at the direction of the ancestral hall with a grim gaze, although because of the thick night and the fact that the runes inside were firmly hidden, he couldn't see their figures, but he also knew that they were secretly peeking at his side in the door, preventing the villagers from breaking into it at any time.
"You guys, go and bring the firewood piled up on the back wall of Lao Zhangtou's house!" It's just that these two Fu people are not the real He Yunfei and Chen Kexin, and they won't think and believe Yu Ruibao's words at all, until more and more villagers gathered, Yu Ruibao snatched the torch from a villager, and asked people to go to find dry firewood, and they were going to burn the ancestral hall in the village.
After listening to Yu Ruibao's instructions, the villagers he saw turned around and left in a hurry, but they really went to hold firewood, and at this time they could also find that Yu Ruibao and these villagers were really controlled by others, they didn't care about the safety of the ancestral hall in the village, and in order to eliminate He Yunfei and Chen Kexin, they would rather burn the ancestral hall with a fire.
Hearing that Yu Ruibao was going to set fire to the ancestral hall, the faces of the two runes also changed, you must know that after all, they are just people made of paper runes, although they are endowed by Heyunfei's Dao Law and can walk automatically, but they are congenitally afraid of fire, otherwise the previous Chen Yang would not have been burned to ashes because of the instability of his body as soon as he went out.
It is conceivable that if the ancestral hall is ignited from the outside, with most of the wooden things inside, it will definitely be able to burn in an instant, and when a flame falls on them, the two of them will follow in the footsteps of Chen Yang and turn into ashes, which is obviously not the ending they want.
Those villagers walked not long ago, they came with bundles of firewood, and after they arrived, they piled up the firewood to the wooden door of the ancestral hall, and at this moment, with a squeak, a black shadow came out of it, it was the Fu man holding the steel bar, but he didn't wait for him to come out, in the whistling wind, several shovels and hoes smashed down on him.
The Fu who followed behind and turned into Chen Kexin hadn't come out yet, and the two were forced to go back, Yu Ruibao originally saw the two of them come out and was about to surround them to other places, but he didn't expect to be forced back by those villagers who were always paying attention, although he couldn't see the expression on his face, but there was a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes.
Now, he also saw that the two people inside were afraid of fire, so he simply asked people to pile up firewood around, and took out a box of matches from his pocket, and after rowing, he threw the match into the firewood, and he didn't know what was sprinkled on it, but he was afraid of a strange crackling sound, and then he saw a red and blue flame coming out of it, and quickly ignited the wooden door of the ancestral hall.
Yu Ruibao waved his hand, and the surrounding villagers threw the remaining firewood into the fire ring, and after a while, there were flames that spread to the sky, and the two runes still wanted to dodge, but they were lit up, screaming and being ignited one after another, and after a while, they burned into a burning man, struggling inside.
