"The lake god is angry! The god of the lake is angry! β
The villagers of Danghu Village were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground and kowtowed to beg the lake god to calm their anger.
Only the three of them stood still in the face of this strange wind, Nan Zhao half-covered his eyes with his hands at the moment, and his eyes were carefully watching the things in the tumbling waves.
Could it be that there is a lake god in this lake, as the villagers say?
Nan Zhao has never seen any lake gods, and the only one he has seen is the land lord last time.
However, I thought that something big would come out of the waves, but the waves suddenly retreated without warning!
She followed the strange wind and took two steps forward, and found that there seemed to be a person standing on the shore of the lake.
"Lord Wang, is there a person standing there?" Nan Zhao wasn't sure, and turned to ask Zhou Yang, who was closest to her.
"I can't see it!" Zhou Yangfang only felt the strange wind and huge waves, and he couldn't see anything else!
Nan Zhao asked Xunlong, Xunlong also shook his head and reminded: "Girl, the people we can't see are definitely not people!" β
Of course she knew, and when she looked at the person on the shore of the lake again, it was clearer than just now, it seemed to be a man, standing on the shore of the lake like a puppet, and she asked suspiciously, "Is it the huge lake wave that this person just rolled up?" β
Zhou Yang replied: "If so, he should be the lake god that these villagers say!" β
She fixed her mind and prepared in her heart to say: "Since the people of one side offer to the fearful lake god, it should be a good spirit, and I will meet him later!" β
"There are countless gods in the world, who knows whether he is good or evil, there is no soul in this radius, I am afraid it has something to do with him, you just go over like this, I'm afraid it's not appropriate!" Zhou Yang immediately stopped her and said what she thought about in her heart.
She was also a little hesitant, and subconsciously looked at her hand and soul flower, this spirit is also looking for the power of her spirit flower, there must be some attempt, but finally saw that it manifested its spirit, and at this moment it returned to calm, it should also be waiting for her to go, where does she have a reason not to go.
So, she made up her mind and said, "Lord Wang, it's all come to this point, I have to go down!" β
Zhou Yang saw that it was not easy for her to make this choice, and she no longer blocked it, but she had a request: "I have to go down with you!" β
Now she also knows that the spiritual flower on the prince's body can ward off evil spirits and disasters, and it is naturally good to have him by her side.
At this time, those villagers were still kneeling on the ground in panic, and they didn't pay attention to them, and walked directly around these people and walked towards the shore of the lake.
Getting closer, Nan Zhao saw that the man who was swept up by the huge waves was emaciated, wearing a white cloth robe, like a mourning dress, but it was a little different from the mourning clothes she had seen before.
She had seen the enchanting and evil mountain spirit, covered by aura, this lake god, no matter how could he have the aura that surpassed the mountain spirit, right? But this man looks no different from ordinary villagers, is this the lake god who terrifies those villagers?
Zhou Yang couldn't see this man at all, he only felt that they had arrived near the man, so he asked loudly: "Nanzhao, that person is a few feet away in front, right?" β
Nan Zhao nodded, her footsteps were already standing, she pointed to the man standing by the lake and asked, "Are you the god of the lake here?" β
The man's eyes were empty and he turned his head, as if he saw her, but he didn't seem to see her, but he just said in a slow voice: "My surname is Deng Xiaodong, a person from Heixiaoshan Village, Jian County, Taizhou......"
Nan Zhao was shocked, "You are Xiaodong?" β
After a closer look, this man's appearance and age are indeed not much different from when Xiaodong left home, she hurriedly asked: "Why did I set up a soul altar on the shore, you haven't come for a long time, why do you rely on the huge waves to come at this moment?" β
Xiaodong's ghost still looked hollow, repeating what he had just said.
"My surname is Deng Xiaodong, a person from Heixiaoshan Village, Jian County, Taizhou."
Nan Zhaohu frowned suspiciously, why did this Xiaodong only repeat this sentence? She asked again unwillingly: "I know that you are Xiaodong, let me ask you why you came by the huge waves?" How did you die in this lake ten years ago? β
"My surname is Deng Xiaodong, a person from Heixiaoshan Village, Jian County, Taizhou......"
Xiaodong's soul seems to be a person who has lost his mind, and there is only one such sentence, and no matter how much he asks, he can't ask anything else.
Zhou Yang couldn't hear the ghost talk, but looking at Nan Zhao's demeanor, he also guessed that she was in trouble, and asked with concern: "What happened to Xiaodong's ghost?" β
Nan Zhao told him: "Xiaodong seems to be incomplete, there is only one obsession here, keep repeating a sentence, I ask something else, and he doesn't answer." β
"Isn't that what you can't ask?"
Nan Zhao nodded, she looked at Xiaodong's ghost, this is the blind mother-in-law's relatives who have been waiting for ten years, his dead soul came from the lake, and sure enough, as she expected, Xiaodong was indeed buried in this lake.
And at this moment, the lake surface has returned to calm, which makes Nan Zhao feel very uneasy, although she has not learned anything from Xiao Dong's dead soul, but she is very sure of one thing, she said: "Lord Wang, it is all with Xiao Dong's incomplete spirit, it is impossible to have such a big movement just now, so Xiao Dong did not come by himself!" β
And when she summoned the spirit, Xiaodong did not appear, but only appeared after she took off the purple bead.
Zhou Yang asked: "You mean, something knows that we are looking for Xiaodong's soul, so we deliberately sent him here?" β
"Hmm." Nan Zhao guessed: "It should be the lake god in the mouth of those Danghu villagers!" β
Just now she thought that it was the lake god who manifested the spirit, but she didn't expect that the lake god would send Xiaodong's soul up, what did she mean this time?
In Li Zipo's inn that day, Nan Zhao saw the experience of the woman who was killed by Li Erniang, if she could see Xiaodong's experience like that now, naturally everything would be clear!
"However, I'm afraid Xiaodong's ghost can't even tell whether he is a human or a ghost, how can he see it?"
At this time, she thought that the "Zhuang's Secret Record" had mentioned that the spirit girl three hundred years ago could communicate with all the spirits, and the psychic skills endowed by her body were incomparable to all the psychic masters in the Xuanmen, but there was no record in the secret record of how the spirit girl was psychic.
However, the spirit girl spell recorded in the secret record is not only the few sentences that Zhuang Ziyu handed over to her, although she has written them all down, but she doesn't know when to use them.
"Lord Wang, wait for me here." With the attitude of giving it a try, she stepped towards Xiaodong's ghost and leaned again.
"Be careful." Zhou Yang instructed.
Nan Zhao stopped in front of Xiaodong's soul, and she said to the empty face of the soul: "I draw this force, through your eyes, to see what you see, meet what you meet......
She felt that this should be the spirit girl spell used for channeling, but unfortunately, after reciting it three times, nothing happened.
She glanced back at Zhou Yang, who was waiting behind, and the other party immediately knew that she had failed, so she proposed, "You try, put your hand on the spirit of the revenant!" β
Nan Zhao heard it, and without hesitation, she turned her head and slowly and carefully put her hand on Xiao Dong's head.
Her physical hand touched the spirit, and she only felt cold and cold, and she could touch its spirit, but she only felt that the spirit seemed to be scattered at any time.
"I draw this force, through your eyes, to see what you see, and meet what you encounter......"
After reciting the mantra, she waited in silence.
The time was spent in peace, and in the end, nothing happened, Nan Zhao's heart was unstable, and he became even more anxious.
"Why can't I?"
"Nanzhao, don't worry!" Zhou Yang persuaded in the back.
"I can't!" She suspected that she couldn't do what the spirit girl had done three hundred years ago on the secret record.
Zhou Yang saw her hanging her head, so she leaned over a few steps and instructed softly: "Nanzhao, everything is impermanent, not everything is as expected, but as long as you put your heart into it, it won't be too bad!" β
Heart?
Nan Zhao seemed to be touched by this sentence, thinking that Zhou Yang was born in the royal family, but he was also abandoned by his relatives, and encountered all kinds of injustices, after a few years, he still lived well, and his own state of mind and personality could not even be achieved by those who practiced, how much effort it spent, she couldn't imagine, but she could feel that even if she was so sad, Zhou Yang was still living with her heart, so that she could live so beautifully.
And what about her?
Her heart was like the waves of a huge lake that had just been stirred, and she was uncertain.
Immediately, she sorted out her emotions and touched the forehead of the deceased soul with her hand again, "The dead people in front of me were also alive in this world, although they are ordinary and small, they are one of the thousands of living beings in this world, everything has a spirit, and it is endless-" She closed her eyes and read from the bottom of her heart: "I want to draw the power of my spiritual flower, through your eyes, to see what you see, meet what you meet, can you?" β
After the spell was completed, the scene around her also changed.
The day dawned, accompanied by a fresh breeze and warm sunshine.
"Mother, the second brother Wang I said is very good, after the job he found for me is done, we can replace the ox cart with a new one, and we can buy you a good walking stick!" A male voice came from the thatched house, and Nan Zhao walked over when she heard the sound and saw that this was the thatched house of her mother-in-law who she had been to before.
It's just that the thatched house in front of me is newly built, and it is neatly arranged everywhere.
And the mother-in-law is packing her bags for Xiaodong, her eyes are not cloudy, clear and visible, she stuffed two morning baked cakes into Xiaodong's bag, and said contentedly: "Mother doesn't need to change the cane, just the one you cut for me with wood is very suitable, don't spend those unjust money, save the money, wait for you to come back, find the princess to tell you a daughter-in-law, let the mother, hug the grandson early, the mother is happier than anything else!" β
"Good!" Xiaodong agreed, then took his bag and said to his mother-in-law: "Mother, I'm leaving, I'll be back in ten days at the latest!" β
"Okay!"
Xiaodong walked out of the house, and Nan Zhao also slowly walked forward with her steps.
The mother-in-law also came, holding the cane made by her son with a pestle in her hand, and sent it to the entrance of the village.
Xiaodong went to another place along the road to the east, he made an appointment with Wang Er in this round, Wang Er had already waited here, the two said a few words, and went east, they arrived at Danghu Village, Wang Er said to go to his house to rest first, Xiaodong promised, to this Wang Er's house, Nan Zhao found that this is not the house where she and Zhou Yang went during the day, Wang Er's daughter-in-law is the aunt who cooks, but she is younger than when Nan Zhao saw her.
"Daughter-in-law, go make something to eat for Xiaodong, we've been walking for a day!"
Wang's second daughter-in-law's eyes were a little erratic, and she saw that there was something in her heart, Nan Zhao was only worried about Xiaodong, so she walked up to Xiaodong and said, "Xiaodong, these two people have a problem, you ......"
Xiaodong couldn't see her, so he passed through her like this.
Only then did Nan Zhao realize that in Xiaodong's mind, these things that had happened could not be changed.
Not long after, Wang's second daughter-in-law brought Xiaodong a bowl of noodles, and Xiaodong said gratefully: "Second brother Wang found me a job to do, and my sister-in-law also made me food, Xiaodong is really grateful!" β
"Eat, eat while it's hot!" Wang Er said with a smile.
In the eyes of simple Xiaodong, Wang Er is a good person, but in Nan Zhao's eyes, no matter how you look at that smile, there is a sense of evil.
Xiao Dong picked up the noodles and ate them, Wang Er seemed to be relieved, he turned around and walked out of the house, there was an old man waiting outside the house, Nan Zhao also knew him, the head of Danghu Village.
"How's it going?"
"It's done, village chief!" Wang Er replied in a low voice.
The village chief glanced coldly at the house, lowered his voice and said: "The sacrificial river style of the child, eight sacrifices, all of them are indispensable, this year's sacrifice is from your family, and it is all recorded in the family tree!" The god of the lake will bless you with a safe and prosperous year! β
Wang Er nodded repeatedly.
Back in the house, Xiaodong was lying on the table unconscious.
Wang's second daughter-in-law was a little scared, she asked worriedly: "What should I do if his family finds it?" β
"What are you worried about? I searched a lot of places before I chose him, he has an old mother in the house, and when he came out, he didn't know where he went, so no one would find him from Danghu Village! After speaking, in order to make his daughter-in-law more down-to-earth, he said earnestly: "Daughter-in-law, this is not only for the livelihood of our whole village, but also for the safety of our children and grandchildren!" β
After hearing this, Wang's second daughter-in-law was really not so worried, she took out the clothes she had prepared long ago from the back room, and changed them for him while Xiaodong was still unconscious.
This dress is the white dress that Nan Zhao wore when she saw Xiaodong's soul, she didn't know what the difference was with this dress before, but now it seems to be some kind of sacrificial dress worn during sacrifices.
She could roughly guess at this moment that Xiaodong was the sacrifice they had chosen to sacrifice to the lake god!
Soon the time came, Xiaodong woke up by the lake with his body tied, and there were seven other people like him, who had been lured by the villagers from other places, and even a child.
Xiaodong didn't know what was going on, and saw the villagers of Danghu Village with solemn expressions around him holding torches, and on the offering platform in front of him, all kinds of chicken and fish meat were enshrined, he looked around among the villagers, found Wang Er, and immediately shouted in panic: "Second brother Wang, what's going on?" Why are you tying me up? β
Wang Er didn't look at him, and listened intently to the village chief reciting the sacrificial words.
"The yellow sky is firm, the prestige of the lake god, bless my Wang family, prosperity in the coming year, and health in the future generationsββ"
"Second Brother Wang! Second sister-in-law Wang, what are you going to do here? Xiaodong was still asking.
A sacrifice tied up like him had accepted his fate and told him, "They are going to sacrifice us to the god of the lake!" β
"What?" Xiaodong was terrified, and hurriedly begged: "Please let me go, I don't want to die......"
Xu was disgusted with him for arguing, for fear of angering the lake god, Wang Er rushed over from behind, and warned with a cold face: "Shut up, being able to sacrifice to the god of the lake is a blessing that you have cultivated in several lifetimes!" β
A blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes, Nan Zhao is too familiar with this kind of deprivation of other people's lives.
I only heard Xiaodong begging in a low voice: "Second Brother Wang, I still have my mother at home, she is still waiting for me to come home, I beg you to be kind, let me go back......"
Wang Er was always indifferent, and also admonished: "You have arrived here, it is impossible to go back, once a year to sacrifice the river, the lake god is mighty, do not be angry, you have to continue to make trouble, believe it or not, after you sacrifice the lake god, I will go to Heixiaoshan Village again, on the grounds that you are seriously ill, deceive your mother, in this way, you two mothers are also good to the bottom of the lake to be each other's companions!" β
After Xiaodong heard this, a big man cried into tears, and finally accepted his fate under this coercion.
In this way, ten years ago, by the lake, the villagers of the fishing village who were simple on the surface sent these eight poor people as sacrifices on a bamboo raft, and the bamboo raft was unstable, and once the people went up, they almost sat in the water.
The villagers had a special person push the raft into the lake with a penny, and the eight poor people all wept bitterly in the face of the impending death, and then their bodies floated less and less, and soon sank to the bottom of the lake.
Nan Zhao stood on the shore, looking back at the second king, the second daughter-in-law and the village chief, their faces, the look of awe and determination towards the lake god, full of sin and evil in their bones and madness!
At this time, the head of Danghu Village, who was originally looking at the lake, suddenly turned his head and looked at Nanzhao's face accurately.
Although he knew that this was in Xiaodong's thoughts, Nan Zhao was still shocked by the fierce gaze of the village chief!
Did he see himself?
There's no way he can see her!
Just as he was wondering, a strange smile appeared on the village chief's face.
Nan Zhao was sure that the village chief had indeed seen her, lest he would catch her and throw her into the lake as a sacrifice, so he was so frightened that he retreated again and again!
"Nanzhao! Nanzhao! When she heard Zhou Yang's voice, she felt that her body was weak and sat down, and when she opened her eyes again, she had left Xiaodong's obsession before her death.
"Lord WangβI've seen it all!" Her voice trembled a little, and she couldn't get rid of the grief of the dead before she died.
Zhou Yang stretched out his hand to help her and asked, "What did you see?" β
She couldn't hide her anger and replied: "Those villagers will sacrifice sacrifices to the god of Danghu Lake every year, and Xiaodong is one of them!" β
After hearing this, Zhou Yang was silent at first, and then sighed weakly: "I can't imagine that there are such evil deeds in the territory under the jurisdiction of this king, and they last for several years, so how many such things are there in farther places?" β
At this moment, there was another thing that made Nan Zhao uneasy, that is, she was looking at her village chief in Xiaodong's obsession.
It was obviously the village chief, but she felt that it was from another spirit with powerful mana!
Zhou Yang said loudly: "Okay, now that we know the cause of Xiaodong's death, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's leave immediately, after dawn, this king will send a letter to the county government to personally try the case!" β
Nan Zhao also agreed, she stood up from the ground, and the two walked in the direction of the wooden pavilion.
The dragon that had been waiting for them was nowhere to be seen, and the villagers who were guarding were still there, standing there one by one, waiting for them to come.
"What about my friend?" Nan Zhao asked them.
The village chief of Danghu Village pointed in a direction very casually and said, "I saw him walking over there just now, maybe he waited for you not to come for a long time, so let's go by myself!" β
Of course Nan Zhao didn't believe it, she was just about to speak, but Zhou Yang took the first step and said: "Yes, he should have gone away, we are going to chase him, let's leave first!" β
After speaking, he pulled Nan Zhao forward.
"Lord Wang, looking for the dragon ......"
"I know that the Dragon Protector will never leave without knowing me, so he must have encountered something wrong!" Although Zhou Yang was walking forward, his attention was always around, and he also reminded Nan Zhao: "Keep walking, don't stop, when you get to the place where the horse is parked in front, you get on the horse first!" β
Nan Zhao also felt that there was a crisis around her, so she didn't ask too much and quickened her pace and walked forward.
Their horses were tied to the willow tree at the other end of the pavilion, but when they got there, they were gone!
The expressions of the two of them changed, and at this time, a voice came from behind them: "Are the two horses missing?" β
When they turned around, they saw those villagers of Danghu Village standing beside them with torches in their hands and harpoons for fishing, blocking the way to the left and right!
Nan Zhao whispered: "It seems that it is not good to leave tonight!" β
Although he was surrounded by the road, Zhou Yang had a momentum that was in danger, and he asked solemnly: "Where did you get my friend?" β
The dragon hunt is extraordinary, one person can beat at least five of these villagers, he really can't figure out how these people, in such a short period of time just now, can get the dragon hunting god unknowingly.
Standing in the middle, the village chief, who was supported by the villagers, said coldly: "I told you to leave just now, if you leave, there will be no such thing, but you want to stay, which angered me Danghu Lake God, just now the Lake God has appeared, he wants you to make this year's sacrifice, three to eight, this is not a good deal for us sacrificers!" β
"Do you know who I am?"
The village chief replied fearlessly, "No matter who you are, you are about to become a sacrifice to the god of the lake!" β
Zhou Yang chuckled, laughing at them, they didn't know the height of the sky, and they dared to say that they wanted him, the king of Tai'an, to be a sacrifice?
Nan Zhao had long hated these wicked people, pointed at the old man's face and scolded: "He is His Royal Highness the King of Tai'an, the one you just arrested is the personal guard of the King of Tai'an, now hurry up and let the people go, otherwise your whole village will not want to live, what kind of lake god will be sacrificed at that time, your ancestors will not be sacrificed for eighteen generations!" β
When the village chief heard this, his face really changed, but after thinking about it, he was even more determined and said: "I don't know if it's true that you say that he is the king of Tai'an, but if he is really the king of Tai'an, it is impossible for us to let you go!" β
Nan Zhao immediately realized that he shouldn't report his identity as Zhou Yang, and he really regretted that he wanted to slap himself in two big ears.
Zhou Yang stretched out his hand to hold her wrist and said comfortingly: "Even if you don't say it, they won't let us go, so when they come up for a while, I will drag them, and you hurry up and escape from here......"
Before he could finish speaking, the villagers rushed up.
Zhou Yang reacted very quickly, pushed Nan Zhao behind him, and kicked the first villager who rushed up to the ground with one kick.
Nan Zhao had never seen Zhou Yang move before, but just looking at this kick, he knew that he was extraordinary, and he was many times more powerful than her.
I was really ashamed in my heart, at that moment, she had already made a plan, and she admired her noble status, even if she wanted to fight for time to escape, she should come!
But Zhou Yang looked at her life as if it was more important than himself......
At this moment, those villagers saw that Zhou Yang was skillful, but they were not afraid, and fell down one of them, and they embraced several more fiercely, Zhou Yang did not even have a weapon in his hand, so he could only push her to the side and shouted: "Run!" β
Nan Zhao took two steps back anxiously, for fear that Zhou Yang would be distracted by worrying about her, so she had to turn around and flee into the night.
But as soon as she ran out more than ten steps, she stopped in astonishment.
Zhou Yang, who was behind her, was wrestling with the villagers of the fishing village, and she felt that she had stopped in the afterglow, and asked suspiciously: "Nanzhao, you run!" β
Nan Zhao's whole body stood there, and he replied with straight eyes: "I can't run......"
