Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Plague of Innocence
But this Taoist master understands that this dragon and phoenix soup is like poison, and once someone eats it, it will be turned upside down.
The Taoist chief did not hesitate to stop the villagers.
The Taoist chief said bitterly to these villagers that this snake is very strange, and I hope everyone will bury this snake quickly, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
Hear this Taoist chief say this.
The village chief seemed to be a little upset.
He said to the Taoist chief, we see that you have worked hard to come here, and you were kind enough to leave you to drink dragon and phoenix soup, why are you always strange?
Say something nonsense.
Do you want to use your nonsense to deceive people in my village?
Facing the obsessive village chief.
The Taoist knew that no matter how he explained it.
No one in this village can believe me, and the Taoist must find his own evidence to prove the danger of this matter.
But in order not to cause turmoil in the village, the Taoist chief only brought the village chief to the back of the village alone.
The Taoist took the man to the hollow in the tree at the back of the village.
Let the village chief tree hole those snakes inside.
When he saw so many dense snakes, the village chief was immediately frightened, but he quickly reacted again, not only did he not feel worried about the snakes in the tree hole, but he looked very excited.
The village chief said to the chief.
Thank you, Chief, for allowing us to discover a way to make money.
When the Taoist heard the village chief's words, he was taken aback in his heart, and couldn't help but ask the village chief what he was going to do, and the village chief's eyes shot a greedy light.
The village chief told the Taoist chief that since there were so many snakes in the village, he would use the resources in the village to mobilize all the villagers to catch and sell all the snakes in the tree hole.
The Taoist chief listened to the old village chief's thoughts.
They raised their objections on the spot.
The Taoist chief said to the village chief, the snake in this is not an ordinary snake, this is the earth dragon sealed in it hundreds of years ago, once someone touches the earth dragon inside, it will be punished by heaven.
The village chief burst out laughing.
The village chief said to the chief, these resources are all from the village, you have no right to decide what we should do, if you want to stay and drink dragon and phoenix soup, everyone in our village will welcome you.
But if you stop us and lead the villagers to make a fortune, then I'm sorry, please leave our village.
saw that the village chief suddenly turned his face and didn't recognize anyone.
The Taoist knew in his heart that it would definitely be impossible to persuade these people with his own strength, but he had to find a way to prevent this catastrophe from happening.
The Taoist blocked the hole in the tree hole.
He said to the greedy village chief in front of him, the snake in it will bring you all the disasters, I hope to let these disasters come to me, you should not see what you do, leave everything to me to deal with.
Of course, the village chief disagreed with the provincial chief's statement.
directly pushed the Taoist chief away.
Looking at the Taoist chief who fell to the ground, the village chief pointed to the Taoist chief's nose and warned, I advise you to leave my village immediately, don't let me forcibly ask you out, I also want to tell you that everything in this tree hole is mine, and we have to rely on the snake in it to make a fortune.
If you stop us again, it will be forcibly depriving us of our money, and we can treat you like a robber.
Look at the village chief who is angry on the road.
The Taoist chief knew that he would definitely not be able to stop the village chief's actions, but he had to delay the village chief to do something to the snake in the cave.
Wouldn't things be better if I could find a way to force these snakes out of sight, hiding them out of the sight of others?
Just as the Taoist chief was thinking of a way, the village chief glared at the Taoist chief, turned around and went to the village, and the Taoist guessed that the village chief must have returned to the village and brought the villagers to catch snakes.
You must let all the snakes in the cave come out before the villagers arrive, otherwise it will cause a catastrophe.
After the village chief left, the Taoist chief quickly used his own strength to dig a hole the size of a basket in this tree hole that did not look big, and then threw stones into the tree hole, waking up all the snakes that were resting in it.
When the snakes turned over, the Taoist chief at the entrance of the cave was chanting some incantations, of course, others couldn't understand what the Taoist was reading, but the snakes in the tree hole seemed to understand.
They all rolled over and swam frantically towards the entrance of the cave, as if they had received some order to flee quickly in a short time.
But by the time the snakes swam to the mouth of the cave, the village chief had already arrived with the villagers.
There were probably a dozen villagers.
Each villager carries a bucket of gasoline in his hand.
When they saw that the snakes at the entrance of the cave were about to escape, they quickly poured gasoline into the hollow, and the village chief lit the gasoline poured into the hollow in order to prevent the snakes from escaping.
Only a crackling sound was heard, and the gasoline quickly burned.
The first of the snakes that fled for their lives had been burned by gasoline, and the pungent stench instantly filled the air, and when they were burned by the fire, they twisted their bodies in pain and rolled in the hole.
The snakes in the back saw that the snakes in front had been burned.
Lian fled to the back.
But those snakes that were already on fire on their bodies, followed the snakes that fled in front, squeezed together, all the snakes were mixed together, and the merciless fire instantly devoured the life in the entire tree hole, and none of the snakes could escape.
The fire burned for an hour before it was extinguished with a pungent smell.
When everyone looked inside, they saw countless burning black snakes, large and small, horizontal and vertical, all kinds of shapes placed in the tree hole, which looked really miserable.
But the village chief and the villagers seem to have red eyes, they don't care whether it is innocent or not, they only have money in their eyes.
The village chief commanded the young men.
Use an excavator to dig this hole in the tree.
Collect all the snakes burned inside, they want to make the corpses of these snakes into dried snakes, and then take them outside to sell, looking at this miserable situation, the Taoist chief really wants to cry without tears.
The Dao Master knew that he was powerless now.
Looking at this seemingly fanatical village, I knew that disaster was coming, but I didn't know what to do, so I could only sigh deeply and leave the village with countless regrets.
But when the Taoist chief walked to the entrance of the village, he found that he had a heavy responsibility, and if he left like this, if something happened in the village, he would really be a little bit to blame.
The Taoist chief was going to choose a place to hide and see if anything would happen in the village, how much he hoped that his guess was wrong, but it was clear that whatever he was afraid of would come.
In the second half of the night.
The whole carnival village gradually fell silent in the midst of the sound of dogs and horses, and when everyone fell asleep, a dangerous shadow quietly surrounded them.
No one can find out.
It was as if the heavens and the earth had suddenly changed color, and the whole quiet thing was all wriggling, as if something that could not be seen or touched could come out from under the earth.
The Taoist chief hid in a large tree.
When the Dao Chief realized that something was wrong, the Dao Master suddenly opened his eyes.
At this time, he saw countless snakes, large and small, surrounding him from all directions, and surrounded this seemingly small village in an instant.
Looking at the overwhelming snakes at the entrance of the village, the Taoist chief knew in his heart that these snakes must have come to take revenge, because the snakes that were burned to death in the cave had a certain relationship with these snakes, otherwise there would not be so many snakes murderously appearing here.
The Taoist chief didn't think of anything else.
He quickly pulled out his peachwood sword and jumped down from the tree where he was hiding.
The Taoist chief used his body to block the entrance of the village and stop the snakes outside the village.
No one knew what happened that night, but later, everyone who saw the scene knew that there was not a single survivor in the entire village.
When all the bodies that were unrecognizable were buried together, the place became a mass grave.
