Chapter 40: Sacrifice to the Heavens

"Brother Mu's kindness is appreciated in my heart! We are all idle people who walk the rivers and lakes, accustomed to traveling around, if the court needs it in the future, we will definitely help! Tianyou politely refused.

"Yes, we are monks, glory and wealth are just floating clouds for us, if there is no other important matter, the great monk will leave!" Qijie echoed and said.

Mu Xingchen saw that they had made up their minds, so he didn't say more, hugged his fists and said: "Since this is the case, I won't keep it anymore, the three of you, see you in the future!" Take care! ”

"Take care!" After speaking, the three of them left Ping'an Town.

On this day, the three of them came to a village with dense bamboo fences and thatched huts. It's hot, the crops are dry, the creeks are dry, and the breeze blows and rolls up dust. As soon as the three of them reached the entrance of the village, they found that many people from the village had gathered at the entrance of the village, because of the large number of people, the three of them did not know what was going on, but they heard the cries and shouts of the crowd.

"This lady, may I ask what is going on? Why do some people weep bitterly? Tianyou asked the old woman next to him.

"You're a foreigner, aren't you? Oh, what a wicked worker! Our village has a big drought this year, and the crops are about to be harvested, no, I was going to find a mage to ask for a rain, but the mage said that there is a disaster star in our village, so it will be this disaster, if you can't burn the disaster star alive, it will be a disaster! The old woman sighed.

Nalan Bingruo then asked, "Then what is this cry?" ”

"No, after the mage's calculations, the big fat boy just born in the old Zhang family is the reincarnation of the disaster star, there is no way, the village chief has to hand over the child to the mage, and is ready to burn it alive and sacrifice it to the sky! Whose baby is the mother's heart! The old woman said with tears of sadness shedding her eyes.

Hearing this, Qijie couldn't help but chant the Buddha's name, and Tianyou frowned, thinking, how can a cultivator have a living person to sacrifice, this is clearly the demon way!

"Amitabha! Donors, please let go, let go! Tianyou and Nalan Bingruo followed, walked into the crowd, looked fixedly, and found that at this time there was a man and a woman kneeling on the ground and crying, the woman had cried to death due to excessive grief, and in the middle, a high platform had been erected, the platform was full of dry firewood, a few months old baby was crying on the dry wood, next to the baby, a Taoist priest wearing a red robe was looking at Qijie and others with strange eyes.

This person is thin, a wicked body, triangular eyes, hooked nose, pointed chin, two mustaches, sharp-beaked monkey gills, fierce eyes, full of meat, at a glance you know that it is not a good kind, for the baby in the swaddling can be this poisonous hand, it can be seen that it is cruel.

"Amitabha, who is the village chief?" The seven precepts recited the Buddha's horn and said aloud.

"Master, I'm the village chief." A middle-aged man hurriedly stepped forward and said to Qijie.

Qijie's face was miserable, he sighed, and asked, "Dare to ask the village chief, why did you burn the young children alive?" How could such a terrible thing be done? ”

"Don't hide it, we can't bear it! But there is no way, for the sake of the peace of the whole village, it has to be like this! The so-called tiger poison does not eat children, this baby is a person from our village, who let him be the reincarnation of the disaster star, can only blame his life! The village chief said with a look of disapproval.

The Seven Precepts once again chanted the Buddha and asked, "Who calls this son the reincarnation of a calamity?" What are the credentials? ”

"It was calculated by this mage on the stage!" As he spoke, the village chief pointed his finger at the red-robed Taoist priest on the stage.

"Yes, I found it, why not?" The red-robed Taoist priest asked in a strange way.

Nalan Bingruo asked coldly, "Why do you say that this child is the reincarnation of the Calamity?" And on what basis does it say that the great drought in the village is related to this son? ”

The red-robed Taoist priest cast a fierce look and asked, "Who are you?" Who is eligible to ask me? ”

"Village chief, hurry up and drive these three people away, don't delay me to sacrifice to the sky, otherwise God will send a sin, and your entire village will suffer!" The red-robed Taoist priest then urged.

Hearing this, the village chief and the villagers were anxious, and said with some shame: "Please also ask the three of you to make it convenient, this is related to the life and death of our entire village, please go into the village to rest for a while, after sacrificing to the sky, we will definitely warmly entertain you!" ”

Tianyou clasped his hands into fists and saluted the villagers, and said: "I am not talented, but I am the heir of the authentic Guigumen, proficient in the yin and yang five elements gossip numerology, the drought here is a change in feng shui, and it has nothing to do with the child, I hope you don't kill the living beings by mistake and create injustice!" ”

"That's right, doing such a cruel and evil thing will definitely be indignant to people and gods, Amitabha, turn back to the shore!" Qijie said with his hands folded.

"What? It's true! Fathers and fellow villagers! Hear no! It has nothing to do with my children! Can't burn! Can't burn! The child's mother suddenly woke up and said a little crazy, everyone couldn't bear to see this scene, and good people were tortured like this.

The village chief suppressed the noisy crowd and said respectfully, "Dao Ye, is this true?" ”

"It's true!" Tianyou nodded and said.

The red-robed Taoist priest showed a fierce look and roared, "What are your skills, dare to say that this son is not the reincarnation of the disaster star?" Folks, do you listen to me, or do you believe in the liar who walks the rivers and lakes? ”

Hearing this, the villagers were at a loss for a while, and the child's parents kowtowed to Tianyou and others like chickens pecking rice, begging them to solve their children.

Tianyou took a step forward and said, "In the next year, I can ask for nectar to rain heavily for the village, first, to alleviate the drought, and second, to prove that I am right!" ”

"I tell you, if you don't burn the calamity star to the heavens and miss the hour, the heavens will send down heavenly punishments, don't blame me for not reminding you ignorant villagers!" The Taoist priest said threateningly.

Seeing that everyone looked frightened, afraid that they would do something stupid, Qijie said angrily: "Bold and demonic, committing murder here, are you not afraid of retribution?" ”

"Hmph, I'm doing the right thing for heaven, and the three of you came to obstruct me from sacrificing to heaven, don't you want to kill the whole village?" The red-robed Taoist priest asked with a sneer.

For a while, the villagers looked at the three of them with hostile eyes, Tianyou shook his head secretly, and smiled bitterly The villagers were blinded by this demon way, so they had to pinch their hands into sword fingers, stretched out their right hand and pointed at it, and the baby flew up out of thin air and landed in his mother's arms.

"O living immortals! Please save our village! When the people saw this, they knelt down and bowed.

"Everyone, please get up, I will definitely help you, get up and talk first!" Tianyou hurriedly said.

When the demon Dao saw this, he saw sweat on his forehead, and threw down a cruel sentence: "You wait for me!" And he walked away.
