Chapter 96: The Senior Sister of the Sect Wants to Counterattack (30)
"The river god guards this river and guards us, how can it be vicious?"
"Slander the river god and think that the river god is nothing, you ...... You are going to be punished! ”
Jiang Yunxuan: "Isn't it vicious to use the flood as a threat and rob the marry?" ”
"If there is retribution, just come, I am afraid of everything, but I am not afraid of retribution!"
Everyone was extremely angry, and they clenched their fists and wanted to go up and fight Jiang Yunxuan.
The old man stopped the grief and indignation of the crowd with a kind countenance, and then said:
"The chivalrous woman doesn't know, the river god has never threatened with floods, we sent a woman to marry him, we climbed him, and wanted to have a smooth sail."
Jiang Yunxuan: "Gao Pan? That's a clever word. ”
"Is it you climbing, or is this kid climbing? Can't you see that this child is not willing? ”
Old man: "She is still young, she doesn't understand this person's sophistication, and she will always know in the future that we are for her good." ”
Jiang Yunxuan: "For her good?" ”
"She is dead in the future, how can you know if you are for her good?"
"All I know is that she doesn't want to marry the river god at this time, and since she doesn't, you shouldn't do it."
"You said that it wasn't because of the threat of the river god that she was allowed to sacrifice, since that's the case, then today's sacrifice will be over, I don't think it's okay."
The faces of the villagers all changed: "No! ”
Jiang Yunxuan raised her eyebrows: "Why not?" ”
The old man was the first to come back to his senses and comforted:
"The chivalrous woman doesn't know, once the sacrifice begins, there is no reason to invalidate."
Jiang Yunxuan: "Why can't it be invalidated?" ”
Old man: "We just told the heroine that once the sacrifice begins, the river god has been summoned by us. ”
"If he sees that we are nullified and thinks that we are making fun of him, he ...... I'm afraid he's going to be angry......"
Jiang Yunxuan: "Didn't you say that the river god is protecting this mountain and river and protecting you?" ”
"If he is a kind and generous God, why should he be angry?"
"What you say is very contradictory."
The villagers paused again, looking at Jiang Yunxuan for a while, they didn't know how to explain.
"Anyway, no matter what, this sacrifice must continue!"
A villager shouted: "From ancient times to the present, there has been no such thing as an abolition of sacrifice!" ”
"Folks, I think she is a demon girl, and she made a special trip to fight against the river god!"
"Come, for the sake of the river god, let's all go up together and kill her to sacrifice to the river god!"
"Kill her! Kill her! Kill her! ”
For a time, the people were angry and angry.
The fear of floods is much greater than the fear of Jiang Yunxuan.
The river god is something they have believed in for hundreds of years.
For their faith, it is absolutely impossible to destroy it for a while.
So Jiang Yunxuan didn't come with a reasonable heart at the beginning.
She danced her sword in the air, bringing out a fierce murderous aura, and then narrowed her eyes:
"You can try it."
The villagers shouted: "At most, it is just death, folks, we will fight with her!" ”
The villagers rushed up with stones and hoes.
Jiang Yunxuan stood on tiptoe, leaped into the sky, and danced his sword to fight with the villagers.
She tried her best not to hurt the villagers, but because of this, the villagers felt that she was easy to deal with and took more and more intense attacks.
A hoe and a wrench were all made with death and brute force, and it seemed that Jiang Yunxuan had to be beaten to death.
If it weren't for Jiang Yunxuan's internal strength to protect her body, she probably wouldn't have been able to hold it.
Jiang Yunxuan had to protect herself from injury on the one hand, and on the other hand, she had to protect the villagers from injury, which was painstaking and laborious, so for a while, she was oppressed by the villagers to the point of being at a loss.
At this moment, Wei Yi slowly raised his hand and exerted a force, and in an instant, the villagers surrounding Jiang Yunxuan were sent flying.
Jiang Yunxuan was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Wei Yi, only to see Wei Yi slowly withdraw his hand with a flat face.
If she used her internal strength, at most she would be able to fly the villagers in front of her.
And in such a situation, she can't control the strength well, and it is very likely that the villagers will either die or be injured.
Wei Yi seemed to see that she didn't want to hurt the villagers, so although he sent all the villagers away, none of them vomited blood and whimpered.
It can be seen that its internal force is profound.
This...... It's the difference in strength.
Everyone fell to the ground, not daring to step forward easily, but looked at Wei Yi with some fear.
"If you don't listen to what you say, you have to use force, and you can't beat me if you use force, hey, why bother?"
Wei Yi clapped his hands and said lightly.
The villagers all trembled, and they would look at the altar for a while, Wei Yi for a while, and Jiang Yunxuan again, anxious and angry:
"What the hell do you want?"
Wei Yi looked at Jiang Yunxuan, in fact, he didn't know what Jiang Yunxuan wanted to do.
In his eyes, sacrificing to the river god is a tradition, that is, sacrificing living people, which has been a common thing since ancient times, and he does not feel that there is anything wrong with it.
Jiang Yunxuan's rash obstruction should not be a legitimate thing in the eyes of ordinary people.
But he has never been a proper person, so he is willing to interfere with this matter.
What's more, he has never believed in the river god or something.
If you fight, you will fight, if you obstruct it, you will hinder it, and if you have the ability, the river god will really come out to fight him.
In an armed confrontation, he may not lose.
Jiang Yunxuan glanced at Wei Yi gratefully, and then withdrew his sword:
"As I said, this sacrifice can't be held."
"Not today, not in the future."
The old man got up tremblingly, with a helpless expression:
"Chivalrous girl, I understand your hard work, and I also know that you want to save the core."
"But you're not saving people, you're harming people......"
Jiang Yunxuan: "Harmful? Where does this begin? ”
The old man's eyes were filled with tears: "Do you think we really want to sacrifice to the river god?" ”
"Do you really want innocent lives to be sacrificed to the river gods? That's not true...... That's not the case......"
"You're harming our whole village...... If the core doesn't die, the whole village will die......"
"All have to die......"
Jiang Yunxuan and Wei Yi were both full of doubts, and motioned for the old man to continue.
The old man was helped to sit on a stake, he coughed lightly twice, and said slowly:
"In fact, ten years ago, we sacrificed to the river god, and we only used a pig's head to sacrifice......"
"But ten years ago, it rained for ten days in a row, flooded and plagued everywhere, and no matter how much we sacrificed, it was useless."
"Then a Taoist passed by, and he told us that the flood was because the river god was angry, and he said that the river god wanted a bride."
Jiang Yunxuan lowered her eyes, Taoist priest?
She doesn't have much disgust for Taoist priests, nor does she have much affection, because in this world, there are too many people who deceive and pretend to be Taoist priests.
Most of them were a fake Taoist priest who made a sacrifice, but these people mistook it for the truth.
Jiang Yunxuan: "So you started sacrificing the living?" ”
The old man nodded: "Hmm...... In desperation, we had to sacrifice the most beautiful girl in the village to the river god. ”
"But who knows, as soon as the sacrifice is offered, the flood will begin to recede, this ...... This is the manifestation of the river god......"
"Since then, we have sacrificed maidens every year, and sure enough, the flood has not been as widespread as it was that year......"
"This ...... This is all a symbol of the wrath of the river god......"
Jiang Yunxuan: "For ten years, you sacrifice a girl every year, and for so many years, it is ten living lives." ”
"You...... Have you never doubted the words of the Taoist priest? ”
A villager grabbed the words: "Doubt? How to doubt? ”
"It is true that after we sacrificed the maiden, the river god protected us."
"If we don't sacrifice, he won't protect us, so many times do you want us to say it?"
They may have doubted, but the consequences of doubt were too great for them to gamble, so they abandoned their doubts and became obsessed with sacrifice.
Because of the sacrifice for so many years, slowly, even they themselves believed that the girl who sacrificed was married to Hebo and became a bride.
This thought made their few feelings of guilt slowly dissipate.
Jiang Yunxuan pursed her lips: "In the future, you don't have to sacrifice anymore, because there will be no more big water here." ”
Everyone looked at Jiang Yunxuan with wide eyes, and the old man asked:
"What do you mean by that?"
Jiang Yunxuan pointed at Wei Yi: "You also saw it just now, he is a cultivator, and he is also a person who is protected by the gods. ”
"He knows how to spell, and compared to the river god, he is actually more powerful."
"From now on, he will protect you, so there is no need for sacrifices."
Mistakes that start with the gods should be solved by the gods.
Otherwise, the crowd wouldn't have believed her.
Wei Yi's heart was full of black question marks, but his face was as indifferent as water.
The old man looked at Wei Yi with a light in his eyes: "When ...... Seriously? ”
Wei Yi's face darkened slightly, they all believe this nonsense?
Jiang Yunxuan nodded: "Naturally yes, what am I lying to you for?" ”
"I don't believe you, whether the water level of the river has dropped a lot this year, this is the reason for his manifestation."
Everyone looked at the riverside with their heads up, and when they saw that what Jiang Yunxuan said was true, they couldn't help but kneel down in shock:
"God is visibly spirited...... God is clearly in the spirit......"
Wei Yi's face darkened even more.
Jiang Yunxuan continued: "Also, if you look at the mountain rock downstream, it was also because of his manifestation, so it was all removed. ”
Everyone immediately ran down the mountain, looked downstream, and saw that the mountain stone was really gone, and they couldn't help but be surprised.
If you just half-believed, now you believe it completely.
The weak young man in front of him like the wind is really a god!
"The gods have appeared...... The gods have appeared......"
Wei Yi rolled his eyes when everyone kowtowed, and then looked at Jiang Yunxuan.
I saw her smiling, her eyes were shining with kindness, her side face was gentle, and her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque.
Just like his mother's favorite painting when he was a child, his eyebrows and eyes are gentle, and he has a heart.
"Ding~Weiyi's favorability has increased by 5%, and the current favorability is 92%, please continue to work hard ......"
