Chapter 30: The Devil's Secret

Seeing Qi Lu intervening to stop him, Hu Lei regained his human form in a stupid manner, and said to him with a grin: "Why are you so nervous, I'm just scaring them." ”

"Hmph, are you kidding that?" Qi Lu glared at him angrily, stretched out his hand to help the two old men up, and helped them pat the dust on their bodies.

The clouds cleared, and the sun regained its brilliant light, and sprinkled it on the people without hesitation.

"Uncle, don't be afraid, with me, they won't hurt you."

But the old grandson's head trembled even more, he stepped back, glared at Qi Lu and said, "You are also a monster!" You're all youkai! ”

Qi Lu knew that he had doubts, so he said softly: "They are indeed monsters, but my companions and I are not. ”

"It's not a youkai, how can you be with them?" The old grandson still didn't believe it.

"I can't make it clear to you in a short time, but please believe me, I am not on the same path with them, and we are enemies of each other before I come to your village."

It took Qi Lu another long time to talk before he slightly reassured the old grandson. Hong Yi saw the situation and said, "If it weren't for the fact that I had to deal with a common enemy, I wouldn't be in the company of these two demon hunters. ”

"Enemies?" Old Sun Tou's eyes shrank, and he asked in a trembling voice, "What do you want to do?" You must have come all the way here, you must have a conspiracy, do you want to destroy the village? ”

"Ruined it? That's a good idea, but I'm not interested. Hong Yi said disapprehantly: "What I am more interested in is that the enchantment of this village, I must destroy it so that it does not get in the way." ”

"No, I will never let you destroy it, it is a barrier to protect our village!"

The anger in Hong Yi's eyes was instantly lost, and he sneered and said, "I almost forgot, you have gained a lot from this. I'm a very generous person, so just tell the evil god where he's hiding, and I'll let you go right away. ”

"Don't think about it, I won't let your plot succeed." The old grandson was tight-lipped.

"You old thing, if you don't eat toast, you have to eat and drink!" Hong Yi suddenly lost his patience, his face changed and he stretched out his hand to hit the old man, but Qi Lu was already in front of him.

"With me here, no one wants to touch a single hair of the two old men." Qi Lu stared at Hong Yi and said, "Unless you can step on my corpse!" ”

"Mr. Qi, don't forget our mission here!" Hong Yi replied sharply.

Lao Wu said next to him: "Is it a threat? It's a big deal to tear your face and fight, who is afraid of whom! ”

The scene was suddenly full of gunpowder, and it became tense for a while, and at this time, a loud voice came from behind everyone: "Stop me, don't be rash." ”

Everyone looked back and saw Yi Hanchuan coming like a green practice.

"You, it's you, killed my daughter!" As soon as Widow Zhu saw him, she immediately pounced on him insanely, Yi Hanchuan just pursed her lips and smiled, and then dodged her crazy attack lightly.

Qi Lu hurriedly stopped her and whispered comfort. Widow Zhu cried loudly, "You mad demon, why did I listen to your nonsense in the first place, and you returned my daughter's life!" ”

Yi Hanchuan said coldly: "Don't get excited, your daughter is not dead, she is just possessed by an evil spirit!" ”

"You're lying!"

"I didn't lie to you, her body was manipulated by evil spirits and she has gone to the Lengrad Gorge." Yi Hanchuan continued: "I tricked you into killing her in the first place, just to prevent the evil spirit from coming to the world, so that it would not harm this world. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Widow Zhu pounce again, Yi Hanchuan sneered, stretched out his finger and pointed at her forehead, ready to give a little lesson to calm her down, but Qi Lu, who was quick-eyed, had already thrown a spirit talisman in his hand to stop his action.

"Then I'll explain to you, ignorant woman, what happened." Yi Hanchuan narrowed his eyes and watched with interest as the rune paper turned into ashes in his eyes. "You have a very strict family education, why would your daughter get pregnant for no reason? You know very well that she didn't do anything embarrassing, but that there were unnatural forces taking over her body! ”

This sentence poked the faint pain in Widow Zhu's heart, and she was speechless in a daze.

"With your mortal abilities, you mortals will not be able to detect the motives of that evil god, who has been lurking here for a hundred years, and has already laid everything out. Don't look at the fact that he usually gives you some sweetness, but he also tempts you to do a lot of hurtful things, you must know this better than me, right? What good god can induce evil in people's hearts, and he is only letting you fall into the abyss of hell! ”

Yi Hanchuan's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, shaking the bodies of the old grandson and the widow Zhu.

"We are not good people, but we cannot tolerate him destroying the world! That's why I'm teaming up with these two monster hunters, and do you still suspect that my motives are not pure? ”

The old grandson muttered, "Destroy the world, the gods will not do this, he said that he will lead us to the Pure Land of Bliss." ”

"Yes, you're still singing praises to him by this time?" Yi Hanchuan shouted: "If you really believe him, then why do you want to leave this village again now?" ”

Yi Hanchuan's righteous words suddenly made the old grandson speechless, he lowered his head sadly, and sat on the ground panting. When his breath calmed down, he made up his mind and said, "Okay, I'll tell you everything I know, but you have to promise me not to hurt the villagers." ”

Yi Hanchuan responded briskly: "No problem, as long as the villagers don't harm us, I will never embarrass them." ”

The old man's face seemed to be distorted, and his eyes were empty, as if he was reminiscing about the past, and it took a long time to slowly tell everyone about those unbearable memories.

He has lived in this village since he was a child, and he heard from the elders of the village that during the Republic of China at the beginning of the last century, his ancestors passed through the village of Charbagh in order to escape the war.

At that time, the village was not as rich as it is now, and in the eyes of these escapees, it was a barren land, and the village was full of corpses, and there was not a single living person. The leader of the procession realized that this was an ominous place, and hurried to lead the group to prepare to leave the place, so as not to be tainted with unclean filth.

At this moment, the sky suddenly shone with golden light, and a voice said: "I am your god, this will be your treasure land, stay here, I will bless you with a happy life for generations to come." ”

The people looked into the air in amazement, and their eyes were full of brilliant golden light, but there was not a single figure in sight, and just when they were surprised, it suddenly began to rain heavily, and countless gold bars fell from the rain.

The voice came again, "This is my reward for you, to use it to bury the dead, to renovate the village, and to build it into the home you desired." ”

Seeing the treasure falling from the sky, and the direction of God, these people suddenly saw the money, completely forgot about the danger, and they rushed to the gold bars on the ground, even if they were hit on the head and bled out.

Indeed, as he said, the mysterious deity rained gold bars from time to time, making everyone rich. They used the unearned gold bars to rebuild the village and settle down in accordance with the gods' orders.

The god also used his magic to make the climate around the village pleasant, the weather to be good all year round, and to make the crops thrive, and the villagers only had to scatter the seeds in the fields, and when the harvest time came, they could easily reap a good harvest.

Hearing this, Qi Lu couldn't help but interject and said, "According to what you say, he has done so many blessings, he should be a good god, why has he become an evil god again?" After speaking, he cast a sharp gaze on Yi Hanchuan.

Yi Hanchuan sneered, and said indifferently: "Don't worry, we might as well listen to this old man's words." ”

The old grandson took a breath, and then continued: "If he just does this, then he is really a bodhisattva who saves suffering, but how can there be a free lunch in the world!" ”

"What happened then?"

"Among those who fled from the famine for their ancestors, there was a shaman. Every myth of the deity is conveyed to the villagers through his mouth. At first, he preached the gospel, but when the villagers settled down, he changed."

Qi Lu hurriedly asked: "What has become of you, and what is the request for you?" ”

"Yes, he said that his divine power is waning and that he needs to be re-energized to protect us."

Qi Lu couldn't help but sneer, "Joke, the power of the gods has been weakened, how can you help him!" ”

"He said that he would use human sacrifice to restore his divine powers, otherwise the village would be punished."

"Then your ancestors agreed?"

At first, the village chief saw that this was an extremely cruel thing, and of course he and the villagers did not listen to the god's words. The gods were furious and sent disaster to the village, killing half of the people and livestock in one night. The living were terrified when they saw this terrible situation, and how could they not agree to his request. ”

"So, you're going to kill people to satisfy his evil yuang?"

"Yes, so the villagers caught people passing by every now and then and sacrificed them to the gods." The old grandson's eyes were dodging. "In order to prevent this evil deed from leaking out, the village chief has since established a clan rule, except for a few people who have been assigned to go out to buy daily necessities, the other villagers are strictly forbidden to leave the village, otherwise they will be offered to the gods."

Qi Lu shuddered when he heard this, and opened his mouth to scold: "What kind of god is this, it is clearly a devil who pretends to be a god to satisfy his evil yuang, I have to eradicate him, and I must not let him harm people again!" ”

Yi Hanchuan said with a slight sneer: "Mr. Qi, you should believe that this guy is not a good thing now, then our cooperation should be able to continue according to the master's instructions?" ”

Qi Lu glanced at him and ignored him, because there were still many mysteries in his heart waiting for the old grandson to answer.

Lao Sun said with a guilty face: "I just don't want my hands to be covered with the blood of innocents, so I want to escape from this village with Azhu and live a normal life." ”

"Rest assured, uncle, I will definitely keep you away from this evil place, but I still hope to tell us the truth of the matter before you leave." Qi Lu thought for a moment, and then said: "Through these observations, I found that the old man and aunt are not like the same heart as the villagers, will those villagers tolerate you?" ”

"Okay, I'll tell you all." Old Sun Tou's body was still trembling, and his face was a little deformed from being immersed in painful memories, as if he had lost his former look.
