Chapter 489: Burning the Ancestral Hall
"Demons! You, how can you be justified! ”
"Brute, you dare to harm living beings, I will go back to Master Xiangzu and let God punish you!"
The old village chief is also a tough guy, not afraid of life and death, and he keeps scolding.
Chen Shuisheng thought that if it was a star spirit, then it must have another hidden meaning when it said this. If it is not a star spirit, then the situation has become very dangerous, and the people of the village are bound to suffer a disaster, and they must quickly persuade the old village chief to leave.
But if you think about it carefully, if the giant python bone spirit just now was just a goblin, it would probably have already started to kill, how could it still allow the old village chief to curse here? Since it is not a goblin, it must be a star spirit, and if the star spirit does this, maybe there is really something hidden.
Thinking of this, Chen Shuisheng hurriedly came to persuade the old village chief.
"Old village chief, now is not the time to vomit, you are not afraid of death, but you also have to think about the other people in the village, just change places to survive, this is not a big deal. Besides, you don't have any valuable belongings here, so why don't you take the people from the village and live outside? ”
Chen Shuisheng also plans to help the villagers settle down with some money, so that their children can go to school and have jobs for young people.
Who knows, the old village chief shook his head and said: "No, no, the outside world is too chaotic, our village people have been here for decades, and now everyone is living well, and our villagers are relatively simple and kind, and we will definitely not be able to adapt to the complex society outside, so it is impossible for us to move out." ”
"Old village chief, I think I can provide you with some help so that you can live well outside."
Chen Shuisheng pondered in his heart that if the entire village was to go to Taiji Town, the cost would not be too big, but the adaptability of these people and whether they could abide by the law and rules made Chen Shuisheng very worried.
"Okay, Xiaodao Chief, we understand your kindness, the way of heaven is clear, good and evil are rewarded, I have my own way to deal with this matter, you can do it yourself."
As soon as the old village chief turned around, he and his two grandsons left.
"I'm in trouble!"
Chen Shuisheng was very embarrassed, this matter was too big, thinking that the lives of hundreds of people were in danger, Chen Shuisheng hurriedly returned to Julongtan.
As soon as Chen Shuisheng stood at the water's edge, the blood-colored snake head of a giant python came out of the water.
That's right, it's a blood-colored snake head, and it feels like it's just been skinned.
Chen Shuisheng was stunned for a moment, unable to understand why this snake bone spirit had undergone such a huge change in such a short period of time.
At this time, the head of the snake said: "Shui Sheng, you have to find a way to get that group of people to leave this Julong Village, before dark, you have to do it, if it doesn't work, you just find a way to trick them into leaving for the night." ”
This was the voice of the star spirit, and Chen Shuisheng heard it clearly, "Senior, what happened?" Why do you say that, and how did you become like this? ”
The Star Spirit did not respond immediately, but fell silent.
"Forget it, I'll tell you." The Star Spirit seemed to be embarrassed, "Aquatic, you know what. Under this stone peak, there is a spirit stone that has absorbed the qi of the leylines for many years, this spirit stone is naturally long, the force is strong, I plan to devour and refine it, as long as it can be successful, my silk spirit can be turned into a new life, and the mana is powerful, beyond your imagination. ”
"Spirit Stone! So, what does this have to do with driving out the villagers? Chen Shuisheng's mood was very calm, and he just wanted to know the truth earlier.
The star spirit lowered his voice and said, "That spirit stone has been bred for a long time, and it is not so easy to refine, I am worried that after I devour it, I may lose control because I can't resist its power, and thus bring disaster to the innocent." That's why I'm in a hurry to let them leave, so I'm in a hurry to absorb the yin and yang qi and vitality left in this Gathering Dragon Pool to restore my physical body. ”
"I see......"
Chen Shuisheng finally understood, and after figuring it out, Chen Shuisheng immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll think of a way to see if I can persuade the old village chief." If it really doesn't work, Senior Star Spirit, can you think of another way? ”
"There's no other way, this kind of thing has a lot of dreams at night, and I don't want to miss the opportunity." Xing Ling was very excited, this was completely different from her before, "By the way, Shui Sheng, I will leave you some spirit stones, you can rest assured, we have picked up a big bargain this time." ”
"I'll try to ...... to"
Chen Shuisheng is really embarrassed, there are so many people in the village, it is not an easy thing to do.
Although the spirit stone is a good thing, Chen Shuisheng knows very well that it is the treasure of the star spirit, and it has little to do with him, so he didn't think about it so much.
……
In the ancestral hall of the village, the old village chief is taking some people to worship their ancestors.
The old village chief prayed for protection on the tablet of his ancestors, and came to the statue of the patriarch of Sanqing to state the evil and ask the immortals for help.
Chen Shuisheng rushed to the ancestral hall, but was stopped outside by the people, the ancestral hall is heavy, and outsiders can't enter.
So, Chen Shuisheng retreated to a big tree more than fifty meters away and sat down.
The ancestral hall is the only house in the village that is built on the ground, and it is very atmospheric.
When Chen Shuisheng was pondering how to talk to the old village chief, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and when he looked up, he suddenly found dozens of ghosts looking like ordinary people standing in front of him.
"Uh...... You guys, you ......"
Chen Shuisheng was shocked and hurriedly got up.
An elderly old man's ghost hugged his fist at Chen Shuisheng and said, "Little Daoist, it's really hard for you, we already know everything you have done for our village." Unfortunately, they can't see us, so we have to ask you for help. ”
"It's easy to say, but I don't know what you want me to do, seniors?"
Chen Shuisheng guessed that these ghosts should be the ghosts of those ancestors enshrined in the ancestral hall.
The older old man had a very Confucian demeanor, and he hugged his fists at Chen Shuisheng again and said, "As early as when we just moved to this Julongling, I have already calculated that there will be a catastrophe in a few decades, and this catastrophe is the destiny of heaven, and it is inevitable to avoid it. ”
The old man spoke very slowly.
Chen Shuisheng waited patiently......
"Hey!"
The old man paused, then sighed again and said: "Julongling is good, but after all, this is an isolated place, and our descendants who live here will either cultivate and become immortals, or they will be trapped in this cage forever." Now it seems that the spirit stone is not guaranteed, and the cultivation is even more hopeless. Although everyone continues to live here without shortage of food and clothing, and can be safe, it is not the way out after all. As ancestors, we can't watch our children and grandchildren grow up like this, we must let them integrate into the public, spread out their branches, and prosper future generations, so we want to ask your little Taoist friends for your help, let them move away and go outside to live a new life. ”
Confucian scholars like to detour when they speak, and they can finish it in one sentence, but they say a lot of words.
Chen Shuisheng shook his head and said: "Senior, it's not that I don't want to help, it's really that I can't think of any good way to easily persuade them, I don't know if there are any special good ways for several seniors?" ”
"Yes!"
The old man nodded, leaned into Chen Shuisheng's ear, and said this and this, and so
After listening, Chen Shuisheng couldn't help but be stunned.
The method that the old man said is too crazy, so to speak, it is simply a loss of conscience!
"Senior, this kind of thing is not good, is there any other way?" Chen Shuisheng's face was embarrassed, "There are also seniors, are you sure you can do this?" ”
"It should work, don't worry, we will also help each other in secret, thank you!"
A large group of ghosts bowed to Chen Shuisheng one after another.
After thinking about it, he couldn't think of any better way, Chen Shuichang sighed and said, "Forget it, I can't care so much, so I'll do it." ”
……
……
At dusk, a fire suddenly broke out in the ancestral hall, and the fire grew bigger and bigger.
Seeing the fire on the side of the ancestral hall, the whole village became nervous, and everyone ran over to put out the fire.
However, by the time everyone arrived, the ancestral hall had burned down.
At this time, Chen Shuisheng suddenly jumped out of the woods, holding a package in his hand, and shouted to the old village chief: "Old fellow, tell you not to listen to me, now I have burned your ancestral hall and taken away the ashes of your ancestors, and see how you unfilial descendants will worship your ancestors in the future." You have the ability to catch me! Come on, come on......"
After speaking, Chen Shuisheng grimaced, turned around and went into the woods.
The old village chief was so angry that he stomped his feet and shouted, "Return my ancestors!" Catch him for me, catch him! ”
The ashes of the ancestors were robbed, this is a big deal, and the people are all furious and chase after Chen Shuisheng.
Some of the remaining women in the village, instigated by a group of old ghosts, also chased out with their children.
Chen Shuisheng is guilty of public anger.
In this Julong Village, filial piety is the most exquisite, and the villagers are eager to pick Chen Shuisheng's skin, eat Chen Shuisheng's meat, and drink Chen Shuisheng's blood to get out of this evil breath.
Chen Shuisheng was infamous and attracted the people to chase after him in front.
But not long after the people left the village, a huge black python came out of the Julong Pond, swallowed the clouds and mist, and flew around like crazy, overwhelming the entire village.
The old village chief took the villagers to chase for a while, and found that the whole village was on fire, and the fire was enough to reflect half the sky!
On one side are the ashes of the ancestors, and on the other side are the villages.
The old village chief was in a dilemma, not knowing whether to continue chasing Chen Shuisheng or go back to the village to fight the fire.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, a gust of wind roared, and the whole village saw that a black dragon was flying west and east in the firelight above the village, and from time to time it spit out flames and lightning from its mouth, and the situation was extremely terrifying.
If there are still people in the village, then at this time, everyone will definitely die.
Chen Shuisheng walked back, put down the package in front of everyone, took out all the bones in the ancestral hall, and placed them neatly one by one.
Immediately, Chen Shuisheng took a breath and rushed towards Julongling.
