Chapter Twenty-Four: Breaking the Gods
(I can't get in the backstage, and I almost can't get in...... Thank you for your rewards, your support has made Nanchao more confident!Thank you!)
The news of wolves eating people spread far and wide, and every family felt panicked and chose to stay at home and no longer go out. Anyway, in the middle of winter, there is no need to farm, and it doesn't matter if you don't go out, but you have to go out to do small business stalls, among which Zheng Datu is the representative, he was glared at by the black wolf that day, the cold and fierce eyes of the beast are still dangling in front of him, every time he thinks about it, he can't help but feel a good heartbeat.
"I bet the beast is a demon!"
Whenever he meets someone, Zheng Datu will say so. But the others basically laughed it off, thinking that he must have been scared silly.
However, Zhang Laosan and other people from Orion were very active, they took hunting dogs, bows and arrows, weapons, etc., and scattered in all directions, and launched an operation to hunt down the black wolf.
-- Wolf skin is a sought-after commodity in the market, and a complete and fine wolf skin is even more valuable, and can even be sold for a high price of a silver ingot.
As the saying goes, "there must be a brave man under the heavy reward", although there is no additional reward now, the value of the black wolf itself is enough to make many hunters covet it. They already live by hunting, how can they be afraid of beasts?
It's just strange to say that the hunters carried out a carpet search, searching all the places within a radius of several miles, but there were no clues, which was puzzling, and they blamed the heavy snow that kept falling and covering all the traces of the black wolf's activities, which greatly increased the difficulty of the pursuit.
Today's snow is still falling, but much smaller.
Nearly half a foot of snow had accumulated in the clearing in Jingyang Village, and it creaked when you stepped on it.
Chen Jianchen walked through the snow and came to the land temple behind the village.
Because just after the fifteenth day, in the small land temple, the incense table is full of tributes, and the incense is very prosperous.
"Pity the front seat in the middle of the night, don't ask the common people to ask the ghosts and gods. ”
Chen Jianchen suddenly remembered such a poem, and then looked at the temple statue that was only two feet high, but it was an old man with a white beard and a kind smile, wearing a longevity hat, and holding a dragon-headed cane in his hand.
This land statue is faintly dilapidated, located in Jingyang Village for many years, I don't know how many years I have enjoyed the incense.
Chen Jianchen glanced at it, did not hesitate, took out all the papers in his arms, and took out a bag of paste that had been prepared earlier. The back of the paper with the verses of the "Song of Righteousness" was smeared one by one, and then pasted on the three walls of the Land Temple.
The poems and books posted in the temple are very abrupt, and ordinary people will not do this at all. However, the villagers worship the father-in-law of the land, only on the fifteenth day of the new year, and basically no one comes to the temple at ordinary times, so they are not afraid of being seen in the next few days. In terms of time, there is undoubtedly plenty of it.
Ten sheets of pen and ink, all pasted, just form a ring, enclosing the statue of the land in the center.
Chen Jianchen clapped his hands, walked away, and continued to prepare for the next step.
Disheveled!
There was a strange crunch behind him, as if a huge egg had been cracked.
Chen Jianchen, who had just stepped out of the temple gate, looked back hurriedly, and couldn't help but be stunned, in his gaze, the entire head of the statue of the Earth God exploded out of thin air, exploded in pieces, and the fragments fell to the ground crackling.
This statue of the god of the land was actually destroyed like this.
What happened?
Chen Jianchen turned around and rushed in, looked around, and there was nothing abnormal, and finally his eyes fell on the ten pieces of ink around him-
Could it be that it is because of righteousness?
Righteousness actually had an effect on a clay statue?
Thinking of this possibility, Chen Jianchen was surprised and delighted, and quickly pulled out the pen case from his waist, opened it, took out the evil pen, and took a serious look, and the hairs on the pen head that had turned white had indeed increased from two to six.
One by one, crystal bright, mixed with the tip of the pen, very conspicuous.
All evils do not invade, and ghosts and gods are easy to ...... Ghosts and gods are changing, isn't that what it means?
Chen Jianchen couldn't help but be overjoyed, and quickly tore off ten more sheets of pen and ink -- because of the paste, the paper was a little crumpled when it was torn off, and it was like scrapping.
However, Chen Jianchen is not distressed at all, he can write again when the words are gone, but the new one is unattainable. He hurried back to the village, already considering the idea of changing his plan.
At this time, the village suddenly became lively, and some people rushed to tell each other, saying that the rich man Wang of Shuyang Village heard the news that the evil wolf was causing trouble in the township, and specially offered a reward of five silver ingots to reward the person who killed the black wolf.
This bounty can be said to be very high.
The rich man Wang has always been stingy and lonely, and it is really impressive to suddenly come up with such a large sum of money. But no matter what, the reward money came out, and it was a large amount, and this time it really became "there must be a brave man under the heavy reward", not only the hunters in the hometown enthusiastically dispatched, but even the strong men in the countryside and even Jiangzhou City heard the wind and rushed over.
Hearing this news, Chen Jianchen only frowned slightly, and did not say a word--the wolf demon is already psychic and wise, where can it be so easy to deal with? The idle hunter, the so-called strong man in front of him, is likely to not even be able to touch the shadow of the wolf demon, let alone how to carry out the hunt.
Back at home, Mo Sanniang, who had been worried about it, was finally relieved, and couldn't help but sigh a few words, saying that Chen Jianchen really shouldn't go out alone during this period.
Chen Jianchen replied that he was just walking around the village and did not go far.
Entering the study, Ying Ning, who was hiding in the shadows, appeared.
Chen Jianchen told what happened, Ying Ning was also very surprised, and wrote on paper with a pen ...... half-paid: "It is said that the land and city gods everywhere in the world are under the jurisdiction of the Yin Division."
Regarding Yin Si, Chen Jianchen had also heard about it from the mouth of Qingyun Dao Chief, but he didn't know it, so he asked Ying Ning.
Ying Ning replied: "The existence of Yin Si is mysterious and unpredictable, and the little fox is shallow, and he doesn't know what the specific situation is. ”
Chen Jianchen had no choice but to give up.
Soon, his main interest shifted to the study of the pen, especially the usefulness of the whitening of the hairs, and what ......would happen if the number of hairs increased
It's just a pity that at this stage, he is at a loss for these questions, and it is difficult to find the answers alone. It's just certain that the direction of the transformation of the evil pen's pen should be positive, and what you should do is to continue to promote righteousness until all the mysteries are revealed.
