At night, Xiaoshi Village changed the hustle and bustle of the day, and all the villagers returned to their homes, making the whole village extremely quiet. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

On the street of the village, a figure suddenly flashed by, the speed was extremely fast, in this darkness, it was difficult to catch his figure, even if you concentrated on it, at most you could only see a faint shadow, if you didn't look carefully, you would only think it was dazzling.

Originally, he wanted to catch up with the young monk before and learn about the situation here, but thinking about it, he still came forward by himself and understood it more clearly in Xiaoshi Village.

"Most of the people here don't seem to have slept yet. ”

Chen Heng did not directly disturb the people in Xiaoshi Village, his body fluttered lightly, like a gust of wind, without causing a trace of movement.

The figure flickered, and Chen Heng randomly found one of the buildings and pasted it.

The villagers of Xiaoshi Village are self-sufficient, and there are basically no outsiders in the village, so they don't close their doors here at night, and the house selected by Chen Heng is very simple, and the lights are bright inside, but there is no sound.

With his current cultivation, even the cultivators who were following the primordial realm of the primordial gods would be difficult to discover, not to mention that the villagers here were just ordinary people.

However, just in case, he still carefully restrained his breath.

This little stone village gave him a very strange feeling, and he didn't want to reveal his identity directly until the matter was clarified.

The body fluttered to the outside of the window of this house, and Chen Heng looked inside through the gap.

There is not much space inside, just a room of more than 20 square meters, when Chen Heng looked in, he saw an old woman kneeling in front of an incense table at first sight, her hands clasped together, her eyes closed, and her mouth chanting words, as if she was praying for something.

Chen Heng used his soul power, and he could faintly hear that what the old woman was reading in her mouth was "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable".

On closer inspection, there is a tablet on the incense table, an incense burner, and there are no offerings.

He thought that the other party was worshipping the ancestors, but when he heard the "Immeasurable Tianzun", his heart moved, and when he looked up, he found that the tablet was not an ancestral tablet, but only the words "Tianzun" were written.

"Tianzun, what Tianzun?"

Chen Heng didn't know why, there are not a lot of Tianzun in the Barbarian Capital Domain, and the most representative one is naturally the Yuan Shi Tianzun, also known as the Yuan Shi God and Demon, but not all those who worship Tianzun are Yuan Shi.

After watching by the window for a while, Chen Heng found that the old woman had always been motionless, maintaining that posture all the time, and he didn't know if it would last until dawn.

After a little hesitation, he did not break in, but retreated, and then his figure flashed, and he swept towards the other houses.

But soon he found out the same situation again, this time it was no longer an old woman, but a young couple, judging from their age, they should have been newly married and had no heirs.

They knelt side by side in front of an incense table, on which the worship was still the god with the word "Tianzun" written on it.

"Strange, isn't it possible that they don't sleep at night in Xiaoshi Village?"

Although it is not yet late at night, it is not too early, and the average small village must have blown out the lamp and slept at this point.

Although Chen Heng felt strange in his heart, he still didn't bother them, and continued to walk towards the next house.

I walked through several houses one after another, but still found nothing else, and almost all the villagers in each house were doing the same thing.

However, Chen Heng also discovered one point, the people living in this house are naturally the same family, if there are children or old people in the family, they are all those young couples who are kneeling and worshipping, and the old people and children have already fallen asleep.

Unless, as he first saw, there was only one old woman in the house, then the old woman knelt down in front of the incense table.

"Could it be that they are some kind of Heavenly Venerable Sect disciples? Only the sect has a specific system, it seems that they are performing some kind of sacrifice, and I don't know if it has anything to do with the daytime events. ”

Chen Heng groaned in his heart, his body flickered, and he had already come to the next room.

This time, when he looked through the gap in the windowsill, his gaze froze.

"The head of Xiaoshi Village?"

That's right, what appeared in his sight this time was the old man who led the villagers to dig up the graves and whip the corpses during the day, and he, like everyone else, knelt down in front of the Tianzun incense case, and kept whispering the words "Immeasurable Tianzun" in his mouth.

"Let's just go in and ask, this village chief should know more than the others. ”

Judging from the situation he found before, even if he continued to investigate, he should not find anything, this village chief must be the one with the highest status in the village, and he will know more, Chen Heng decided to go in directly and ask.

Of course, it was impossible for him to swagger in, and as soon as his body moved, he had turned into a wisp of breeze, and he got into the window without making the slightest movement.

The village chief still had his eyes closed, kneeling there with his hands folded, his mouth constantly opening and closing, completely unaware that there was an uninvited guest in his house.

After entering the house, Chen Heng's soul power covered the entire room, completely blocking out all the sounds here, and then the soul power rushed towards the village chief's consciousness.

Having the experience of Nightmare Canyon before, Chen Heng knew that this soul power could control other people's consciousness, of course, this was only limited to people whose spiritual cultivation was far inferior to his.

And this village chief is obviously just an ordinary person, under the invasion of soul power, his body instantly stiffened, and the muttering voice in his mouth stopped abruptly.

After sensing it a little, Chen Heng made sure that he completely controlled the other party, and then he spoke: "Get up, I have a few questions I want to ask you, you must answer me honestly!"

But everything that involves the church must have its own secrets, and if there is faith, there will be crazy actions, and under normal circumstances, it is possible that they will refuse to die and not report it.

In order to avoid trouble, Chen Hengcai directly exerted his soul power on this kind of ordinary person.

And under the control of the power of the soul, he won't remember what happened now, and it is impossible to hide it when he asks.

Under the control of Chen Heng's soul power, the village chief slowly stood up from the ground, turned around, and looked at him with dull eyes.

Chen Heng sat directly on the stool next to him, poured himself a glass of water over the water shell, and took a sip before he spoke: "You are the village chief of this village?"

The other party nodded, his expression still sluggish.

"What did you do during the day? ”

At the beginning, the bull demon leader tripe was not spared under the control of Chen Heng's soul power, not to mention that ordinary people like the village chief basically answered whatever Chen Heng asked.

When hearing Chen Heng's question, the village chief said directly: "Xiaoshi Village has been suffering from drought in recent years, our harvest is not as good as a year, and this year's income is even less pitiful. There is not much food in the village, at most until the end of the year, and if the situation does not improve, famine will begin to appear. ”

"I've been struggling to find a solution to this problem, but Xiaoshi Village has always been self-sufficient, and there is no river nearby, so there is really no way. ”

"Not long ago, the saints of the Tianzun Sect came here, and they saw at a glance that there was a drought here for us, so it would cause us to have a drought here every year, as long as they were eliminated, the drought could be lifted. ”

The saints also told us that the droughts were attached to the bones of our ancestors, and that we had to dig up all the bones, whip them with willow branches, and burn them so that we could relieve the drought. ”

"However, if you want Xiaoshi Village to be smooth and prosperous, you must believe in Tianzun, establish a god position, and continue the incense. Each of our families should sincerely bow down and pray for the protection of the Heavenly Venerable. ”

These situations were not much different from what Chen Heng had guessed, he just didn't expect that this Tianzun Sect disciple turned out to be an outsider, it seemed that it was indeed as the young monk said, these people were really stupid.

Shaking his head, Chen Heng pointed to the divine position on the incense table, and said, "Then what kind of gods and Buddhas are this Tianzun? Where did those Tianzun saints come from, do you know?"

The village chief shook his head sluggishly and said, "We only know that it is Tianzun, and the saints were sent by Tianzun to rescue Xiaoshi Village. Unless we are pious enough, it is possible for the saints to take us to bathe in the divine grace of the Heavenly Venerable, and then each of us can become immortals. ”

"Hmph, Cheng Immortal?" Chen Heng snorted coldly and shook his head helplessly, he was now completely sure that the so-called Tianzun Sect was a cult at all, but he didn't know where their base was.

After a little hesitation, Chen Heng asked again, "Do these saints have any other things to tell you besides asking you to pray?" Also, do you have a way to contact them?"

The village chief shook his head and said, "The saints are the children under the Heavenly Venerable Throne, they come and go without a trace, it is not easy for us mortals to see them, how can there be a way to contact them? ”

Chen Heng basically understood the general situation, and after interrogating some details, he directly knocked the village chief unconscious, and then withdrew his soul power and retreated from his house.

With the power of the soul, the village chief's words are still credible, and as the head of a village, he must know more than others, and Chen Heng has no need to ask other people about it.

"Hmph, Tianzun Sect Saints? It seems that there are really demons here, but I don't know if they are those ancient demons who have been unsealed. ”

Chen Heng thought all the way and retreated from Xiaoshi Village.

The reason why it is certain that the evil demons are doing it is because the righteous path cultivators do not need to deceive mortals in this way at all, and it will not do them any good.

Only demons, in order to absorb the essence of mortal life, will be deceived through this means.

What is certain is that the strength of those saints must not be very good, otherwise what they want to do, they just have to force it. It's just that I don't know who is manipulating this Heavenly Venerable Sect.
