Chapter 138: No Photography
Jin Xiu's bamboo building is far away from the rest of the people's residences, and it is obviously more "luxurious", and the bamboo building is surrounded by flowers and red cloth strips wrapped everywhere, which may be the treatment of a saint.
"Actually, I didn't live here, but I moved here after I became a saint." Jin Xiu pursed his lips and said, "I don't like it here, it always feels weird, like a cage."
Li Chengqian didn't speak, he felt that there seemed to be a vine trap near the bamboo building, which should prevent the saint from escaping.
The two walked into the bamboo building, Jin Xiu closed the door, and said with a solemn expression: "You have caused a big disaster this time, my father is the head of Jiulong Village, his words are the same, now you have two choices, either stay and become one of us, or be killed!" Take your pick! ”
"I'm not going to choose either, I'm going to get out of here." Li Chengqian looked around the room, and the furnishings in the room were very simple, a bamboo bed, a table and a few chairs. There is also a large wooden barrel for bathing.
Jin Xiu said: "That's impossible! You have also seen the magic power of my Abba, he can control those vines, and no one dares to resist him. ”
Li Chengqian said disdainfully: "Which snake demon taught him, right?" It's just a little trick to carve insects! ”
"Shut up! You are not allowed to slander our Holy Spirit! Jin Xiuliu's eyebrows were upside down, and the Miao knife was half unsheathed, with a posture of "you will kill you if you dare to speak".
"Okay, let's not talk about it." Li Chengqian shrugged, Jin Xiu and her people had already been brainwashed by the snake demon, thinking that it was a god of justice, and the slightest blasphemy could not be tolerated.
"How did you become this saint?" Li Chengqian moved a chair and sat down and asked casually.
Jin Xiu put away the Miao knife and said, "It was chosen by the Holy Spirit Master." "Every year, the baby girls born in the village are sent to the Holy Spirit to be screened by the Holy Spirit, and the selected girls are the future saints, who are treated with high courtesy in the village. ”
When the Holy Maiden reaches the age of eighteen, she will receive the blessings of the Holy Spirit, so that the Holy Spirit will protect the village from calamity. When the Holy Maiden who was fortunate enough to pass is old, she will enter the Holy Spirit Pavilion by herself, which is the stone pagoda you went to just now, and dedicate herself to the Holy Spirit. ”
Li Chengqian can't leave the village now, so Jin Xiu is not afraid that Li Chengqian will know these things, so he will tell him all the time.
Li Chengqian snorted coldly in his heart, and said secretly: "This snake demon should have cultivated a dual-cultivation Dao method, and improved its cultivation by absorbing the Yin Spirit Qi of human women, and I don't know that it was taught to it by that goddamn bastard!" ”
He asked Jin Xiu: "Are those saints who have been blessed old very quickly?" ”
Jin Xiu's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said in surprise: "How do you know? She pursed her lips and said, "Yes, they will age soon after they are lucky, and they will look old in ten years, who would have thought that they are only twenty-eight or nineteen years old......"
Li Chengqian nodded and said: "That's right, although you don't like to hear it, but I still have to say that your Holy Spirit Lord is definitely not a good god, otherwise why would those holy women age rapidly?" It was your Holy Spirit who sucked their yin spirit and made them grow old. ”
Jin Xiu glared at Li Chengqian fiercely, and wanted to refute, but she didn't know what to say, because she also vaguely felt that this Holy Spirit Lord was too strange in her heart. In the end, she had to sigh and say, "Don't say this kind of thing to outsiders in the future!" Otherwise, you're dead! ”
Li Chengqian smiled and said, "It seems that you treat me as your own, don't worry, I won't talk to anyone except you." ”
"Humph!" Jin Xiu glanced at Li Chengqian and said, "Who is your own person with you!" She stretched out her hand: "Give me the camera!" ”
Li Chengqian took out the camera but did not hand it to Jin Xiu, but took a photo of her "click".
"Ahh What are you doing! The flash of the camera startled Jin Xiu, she stepped back again and again, covered her face with her hands, and said angrily: "Are you taking pictures of me? Don't take a photo! ”
Li Chengqian was a little strange and asked, "Why can't you take a photo?" You're beautiful, take a picture as a souvenir. After that, I looked down at the photo I just took and saw that Jin Xiu in the photo was holding a Miao knife, with a hint of heroism in her beauty, and she really looked like a woman who didn't let her eyebrows go.
"Huh?" Li Chengqian suddenly felt that Jin Xiu in this photo was exactly the same as Shizun, but when he rubbed his eyes, he found that the photo had returned to its original state.
Jin Xiu couldn't help but be curious and came over to see, everyone has a love for beauty, and women are even more so, when she saw herself in the photo, her eyes slowly eased, the corners of her mouth hooked, and she smiled: "You are not bad." ”
Li Chengqian suppressed his doubts in his heart and said with a smile: "Actually, it can be better illuminated, because you didn't laugh." As he spoke, he raised his camera to Jin Xiu and said, "Let's have another one." He wanted to see if the second photo would reveal any clues.
"No way!" Jin Xiuyi snatched the camera and said with a straight face: "Abba said that I am a saint, and I can't take pictures casually!" The Holy Spirit won't like it. ”
Li Chengqian was a little speechless and said, "Then what do you want this camera for?" ”
"Take pictures of the people in the stockade." Jin Xiu smiled indifferently and said, "I want to take pictures of those elderly grandpas and grandma, so that their descendants can still remember what they look like." I also want to take pictures of the children, so that they can see what they looked like when they were children when they grow up. ”
"By the way, I also heard that you Han people have to take wedding photos when they get married. I also want to take pictures of the men and women in our village, so that they will always remember that day. ”
The more Jin Xiu spoke, the more excited he became, and his eyes sparkled, as if he saw the smiling faces of the people in the village.
Li Chengqian looked at her silently, and suddenly said, "What about you?" You have dedicated yourself to the Holy Spirit for the sake of the stockade, and after many years, will the people in the stockade still remember you as you are? ”
Jin Xiu's smile froze on his face, although Li Chengqian's words were cruel, they were the truth.
Those saints of the ages, who still remembers them? Even now, no one mentions them anymore, as if they were not from the stockade at all.
Jin Xiu's heart stinged, she was still young and didn't want to die of old age so early, but her fate was not in her hands, because she had to sacrifice herself for the sake of the village.
She was silent for a moment, and said firmly: "This is my responsibility as a saint, and I am willing to pay for the sake of the village!" ”
Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "Actually, you don't have to dedicate yourself to that snake demon at all!" It's just taking advantage of you! ”
"I said you should not insult our Holy Spirit!" Jin Xiu glared and said angrily: "Don't mention this matter again!" ”
Li Chengqian sighed in his heart and said, "Okay." ”
"Bang bang bang!"
Someone was knocking on the door, and Jin Xiu asked angrily, "Who?" ”
"Holy Maiden, I am a thorn, and the head man asked me to take the outsider to the place where he lived." Outside the door, Mu Thorn said, "The head man said, you are a holy woman, don't be with other men for a long time. ”
Jin Xiu said: "Got it. She raised her eyes to look at Li Chengqian, and said in a low voice: "You and Mu stabbing away, remember, if you want to die, don't talk nonsense!" ”
Li Chengqian nodded, pushed open the door, and walked out of the bamboo building with Mu Ting.
Mu Thorn led Li Chengqian to a low wooden house, pointed to one of them, and ordered unceremoniously: "Go in!" ”
Li Chengqian walked into the wooden house, the wooden door was slammed shut by the wooden thorn, and the outside was locked with chains, and the wooden spur said viciously through the wooden door: "Be honest! If you dare to run away, I'll kill you!" With that, he left.
Li Chengqian looked at the situation inside the hut, it was dark and damp, there was not even a bed, only some hay spread on the ground, obviously a prison for people. He walked over to the hay and kicked it with his foot, and out of it came a green snake the size of a small arm and several oversized black bugs.
Li Chengqian shook his head and tried to talk to Wang Yuan: "Wang Yuan, can you hear me?" ”
"Master Li! Are you okay? I didn't dare to contact you just now. Wang Yuan's excited voice suddenly sounded, and he had been squatting outside the cottage, just waiting for Li Chengqian to rush in to save people.
But Li Chengqian will definitely not let Wang Yuan take this risk, don't look at Wang Yuan's cultivation is not low, but he is only far beyond ordinary people in terms of physique, but he doesn't know any spells, if he meets the black seedling who can manipulate the vines, I am afraid that he will be caught.
So Li Chengqian asked Wang Yuan to stay outside as a countermeasure.
"I want you to prepare something...... Li Chengqian said a few things, Wang Yuan firmly remembered them, and after speaking, he added: "These things must be prepared within ten days, and I will be of great use." ”
"Got it! I'm going to prepare! Master Li, you must protect yourself and wait for me to come back! Wang Yuan disconnected the communication and rushed into the forest.
Lying on the haystack, Li Chengqian closed his eyes and rested, his mind involuntarily flashed Jin Xiu's face, and there was a vague feeling in his heart, but it was very vague.
"Could Jin Xiu be the embodiment of Shizun?" Li Chengqian thought to himself, "I have no cultivation now, and I can't even feel the breath of the master, alas! ”
When night fell, the surrounding silence fell, only the sound of insects remained, Li Chengqian sat up and walked to the wooden door, in fact, he could leave at any time if he wanted to, where could this broken wooden door stop him.
However, in order to solve the mystery of the medicine girl's life experience and find the incarnation of Shizun, Li Chengqian could only stay temporarily, he had a hunch that there were all the secrets he wanted to know in the Nine Dragons Village.
Through the crack in the wooden door, Li Chengqian could see Jinxiu's bamboo building, and at this time, it was dark inside, and it seemed that he had fallen asleep.
Li Chengqian was about to retract his gaze, but he saw a flash in the bamboo building, he suddenly smiled, and said secretly: "This girl doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, and she is still tinkering with that camera." ”
One night passed, and the next morning, Li Chengqian was sitting cross-legged on the ground meditating, when the wooden door was suddenly opened, and Mu Jian walked in, shouting to Li Chengqian with a straight face: "Outsider, come out!" ”
Li Chengqian walked out of the wooden house and saw Jin Xiu and her father, and seven or eight old people standing outside, Abba said to Li Chengqian: "You are a Han from the city, you should know a lot of things, Jin Xiu said that I want you to teach the children in the village to learn knowledge." ”
Li Chengqian looked at Abba's face, it was obvious that he didn't care about this kind of thing, there was no need for him to learn any knowledge at all, anyway, sooner or later, he would have to fly to the immortal realm with Lord Holy Spirit, and it would be useless to learn or something.
Li Chengqian glanced at Jin Xiu again, and when he saw that she was glaring at herself, he knew in his heart that she had deliberately fought for herself, so he nodded and said, "I know, I will teach the children well." ”
