Chapter 1: The Overlord Apparitions
Tang Qi's fists clenched with a "gurgling" sound, and his originally white and delicate face was extremely distorted as if he had been slashed. Although his eyes were bloodshot, the two rays of light shot out were like black and white impermanence lifelines, making everyone in front of him suffocate their breath, like wilted eggplants damaged by frost.
"Tian Shenu, you ......" He raised his fists and took a step forward, his eyes locked on a skinny man in black not far away, "You dare to say it again to the county order." Although the tone was very low, the tone was like a cold wind, which made the listeners feel a chill in their vests.
"Hmm!" Seeing Tang Qi staring at him coldly, the legs of the man in black couldn't help but tremble like chaff, he wiped the cold sweat on his face with his sleeves, swallowed his saliva, and muttered, "I, I ......"
Just when the man in black was at a loss, a gorgeously dressed man in white walked out behind Tang Qi. He patted Tang Qi on the shoulder and said in a disdainful voice, "Hi! Why did Brother Tang waste his tongue with this group of Tian Shenu. You wait here for a while, and after the obedient slaves of Ben Shao have demolished this ruined ancestral temple, let's go and have a good drink. Quiet? Hahaha......" said as he laughed to himself.
"Scoop." Looking at the invincible appearance of the man in white, the man in black was angry, and he was still a little scared, he immediately straightened his chest, stiffened his neck, and said with a red face, "Market slave, if you dare to touch a single plant and tree in the Overlord Temple today, even if I am a ghost, I will never let you go." ”
"And you're a dog officer." Just as he was scolding, he suddenly rushed to Tang Qi with an arrow step, grabbed the dark green robe on Tang Qi's chest, and scolded viciously, "I still praise you for being honest and upright on weekdays, but I didn't expect you to be a lackey of the Lu family, if you don't keep the Overlord Temple for our people today, I will die with you, a dog official." As he spoke, his left hand quickly pulled out the pig-killing knife pinned to his waist, and he had the posture of opening a killing ring.
The man's crazy actions made everyone present stunned in place, especially Tang Qi, although he hated the man in black so much, the fear of death made him have to calm down. However, calm down to calm, to make him dignified Wukang County Commander submit to a grass man in front of so many people, and he is also a disrespectful and humble Diao people, this is undoubtedly to let him swallow a piece of stinky and ugly shit in front of everyone, obviously this is not something that a temperamental scholar can tolerate. But if you don't promise him, in case......
Just when Tang Qi was struggling in his heart, a gust of wind suddenly blew between heaven and earth, and the biting cold wind made the man in black in anger calm down a little, he stared at Tang Qi who was tightly held by himself, his head couldn't help but feel a little dizzy, and even his hands couldn't help but tremble slightly.
He knew that he was done this time, but even if he turned back now, would Tang Qi and the people of the Lu family let him go? Since there is no way to retreat, it is better to ......
He turned his head and glanced at the tall statue of the overlord of Chu in the Overlord Temple on his left, and his uneasy eyes suddenly calmed down a lot, as if a dying person suddenly saw a panacea that could bring the dead back to life. He kept muttering inexplicable words, as if a sorcerer in a daze was summoning the spirits of the dead.
Seeing that the man in black was no longer focused, a sneer appeared on the corner of Tang Qi's mouth, he knew that the opportunity to escape had arrived. But when his eyes touched the cold pig-killing knife, he couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, and the courage he had finally gathered dispersed like a cloud of smoke. Just when he hesitated, a silver lightning bolt suddenly split down from the lead-clouded sky, and the lightning happened to split in the sky above the Overlord Temple, as if his head had been slashed.
At this moment, Tang Qi quickly stabilized his mind, he pushed away the man in black with all his might, and retreated into the guard circle of the servants in two steps.
"County Lieutenant Li, you and Lu Gongzi stop these Diao people, and this official is going to smash this broken ancestral temple now." As soon as he stood firm, Tang Qi commanded a fierce man beside him.
"Tang Ming Mansion, why ...... this little thing," County Lieutenant Li hurriedly bowed down and dissuaded.
"Execute the order!" Tang Qi shouted angrily without question, "A few of you went to smash this broken ancestral temple with the order of this county. He casually pointed to the four people beside him, and then ran to the ancestral temple in a rage.
At this time, the man in black also came to his senses, and when he sensed what Tang Qi was going to do, the qi and blood in his body suddenly rushed up.
"Dog officer! Look for death! His eyes widened with rage, and he picked up the pig-killing knife and ran away from Tang Qi.
"Folks, let's fight for this group of brutes!" With the man in black leading, the rest of the believers will naturally not admit it. Regardless of whether there was anything in his hand or not, he threw himself at the servants and domestic slaves with his empty fists.
However, although the number of the common people was relatively large, the servants and domestic slaves were well-trained after all, and they were all armed with killing sticks, so the situation was difficult to distinguish for a while.
Just when there was chaos outside the temple and screams, Tang Qi also walked into the ancestral temple with four officials.
"Two guard the door, and two will smash the official." Without making any stops, he quickly snatched the killing stick in the hands of a servant, strode to the largest statue in the middle of the temple, in front of the statue of King Chu, and picked up a stick to smash the table used to throw sacrifices in front of the statue in half.
"Scoop." He gasped and glared at the statue with great anger, "Butcher, you have done a lot of harm in front of you, and you won't let people live in peace even if you die." This county order will smash your statue today, see if you can bear me? ”
As he spoke, he held back his strength and slammed a stick at the statue, and the rebound of the wooden stick made his mouth numb, but he didn't intend to stop, but when he was about to swing the second stick, his body suddenly froze, as if his soul had suddenly left his body at that moment.
He stared at the statue in front of him, and in the place where he had just been smashed, bright red blood oozed out.
No, not good!
As soon as a hint of ominous thought flashed through his heart, a deafening sound suddenly exploded in the hall, as if a hole had been blown open in the sky.
Run! Run!
Without thinking about it, Tang Qi threw away the killing stick with his instinctive sense of survival, and was about to run away wildly.
However, just as he was about to turn around, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a scene that was too terrifying to describe in words, the fierce statue of the Chu Overlord in the main hall actually came to life, it was covered in blood, like a demon who had just crawled out of the sea of blood. The overlord spear in his hand swept through the blinding cold light, like an ice-blue thunderbolt that exploded in his heart. It moved, like a falcon pounced on its food, and swooped at it with a murderous aura with its overlord gun.
Time froze at this moment, Tang Qi only felt a chill in his back, and then lay on the ground forever with a distorted and terrifying expression.
The incomparably terrifying scene in the ancestral temple also frightened everyone outside the ancestral temple, and I don't know how long later, a person in the crowd suddenly knelt on the ground, while shouting, "The overlord manifests, bless my life!" While bowing to the Overlord Temple. And they all fell on their knees.
This is the first day of the fourth month of the fourth year of the vertical arch in Wukang County, Huzhou, just like the storm that is sweeping the entire south of the Yangtze River, just a few days, the anecdote of the overlord's apparition spread all over the north and south of the river, of course, the official recital about this matter also quickly spread to the Shangyang Palace in Luoyang, the capital of the gods, by the way of eight hundred miles of urgency.
