Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Goddess Descends to Earth
"Goddess! Please forgive the goddess, the small people have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, the goddess must not blame! The man kowtowed like pounding garlic, his voice was so excited that his body was even visibly trembling.
When the people who came up saw him like this, they all looked at each other in surprise, and looked at Bai Lu, who was stunned and wanted to help people, all of them were like wheat seedlings blown down by the wind, kneeling down in a bang, and throwing all the farm tools in their hands on the ground.
"The goddess has descended to earth! The goddess has descended again! The goddess has not forgotten us! These people all knelt down and worshipped Bai Lu, shouting excitedly, as if they had seen a living Bodhisattva.
"What are you doing here? Hurry up! "Bai Lu has never been knelt down in his two lives combined, not to mention that many of the people here look older than Bai Haisheng.
But no one got up, but kowtowed even more excitedly: "The goddess has spoken!" The goddess spoke! We're saved! ”
Bai Lu has the heart to kneel down for these people.
"I command you, get up at once. Otherwise I'll turn around and leave! Bai Lu put on a serious look on his face and said in the loudest voice.
The people who were rising on the ground were stunned for a moment, and they all got up from the ground, but they still stared at Bai Lu with starry eyes.
"The goddess has been gone for twenty years, and we have been waiting for you so hard." The man in the lead looked at Bai Lu's face in the moonlight, and he didn't know what to say excitedly, and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes.
Why are you still crying?
Bai Lu is really confused by the second monk.
"You recognized the wrong person, my daughter is not yet fifteen this year." Bai Haisheng stopped Bai Lu behind him, and the kitchen knife in his hand reflected the light in the moonlight.
"Bold! How dare you humiliate the goddess! The goddess is born and raised, and you dare to pretend to be the father of the goddess? You are the king of heaven, Lao Tzu can't do it! Someone in the crowd shouted angrily at Bai Haisheng, and bent down to pick up farm tools to come up and beat up the person who bullied the goddess.
"Was the goddess kidnapped by these people? We'll help you out! Someone responded and picked up farm tools, and the night wind howled, and the atmosphere began to become scorching.
"You really recognize the wrong person, I don't know you, let alone a goddess, he is really my father." Bai Lu explained question by question, "We fled to find this place, these are my family and friends, I have not been held hostage, and I don't need your help." ”
When Bai Lu's words fell, these people looked at each other again.
"Maybe the goddess in your mouth looks like me, but I'm really not her." Bai Lu added, and wanted to say a few more words, but saw that the people in the crowd showed desperate expressions.
"Could it be...... Is she really not? ”
"The goddess has given up on us?"
"Can we just wait here to die?"
"The time limit is coming soon, and if the goddess doesn't come again, we won't have a way to live!"
Despair and panic spread through the crowd, and even if it was just by moonlight, Bai Lu could see the pain on these people's faces and the hollow pupils that went down.
"Who are you talking about as a goddess? Why don't you die if she doesn't come? Bai Lu still couldn't help but ask, she felt that this was a good opportunity to complete the task.
"Since you are a foreigner, why bother so much, hurry up." It has been confirmed that Bai Lu is not a goddess, and some people have already begun to want to expel these uninvited guests.
"But she looks exactly like the goddess, what if she can really help us?" There are also those who oppose it and hold on to a glimmer of hope.
This glimmer of hope spread through the crowd, and soon, a man over the age of six, on crutches, separated the crowd and walked to Bai Lu.
He was not as excited as the others, and looked at Bai Lu with cloudy and calm eyes for a while, and a soft voice came out of his throat: "Like, it's really like." ”
"Old Lu, what should we do?"
"She's not a goddess, but she's related to a goddess." The person known as Lu Lao grabbed Bai Lu's arm in Bai Lu's incomprehensible gaze.
"Little girl, it's getting late, why don't you stay here for the night."
"That's my ......"
"Your family and friends can come in and rest, and maybe we need your help." Lu Lao interrupted Bai Lu's words, pulled Bai Lu and walked towards the village.
Bai Haisheng and the Bai family naturally followed immediately, but Li Qingnian stood still and did not move.
It seems that he thought of Bai Lu too simply before.
This man has more secrets than he thought.
"Master, the people in this village are not good stubble." Song Qian, who had just taken advantage of the chaos to sneak into the village to check, ran back and pressed against Li Qingnian's ear.
"All of them are skilled in martial arts, and they are very vigilant, and even women and young children are not fuel-efficient lamps. Why don't we leave? Song Qian was a little worried, he had never seen an entire village of people with martial arts.
If he hadn't been able to do it, he would have been discovered by the women and children who stayed inside.
"How is it compared to you?" Li Qingnian looked at Bai Lu's back as he was forced to walk forward, and his eyes that occasionally looked back, and hesitated.
Of course he can leave Bai Lu, he can leave Bai Lu at any time.
But Bai Lu still has the traitor's information in his hand, and there are so many secrets he is curious about.
So knowing that he shouldn't go to this village, he still wanted to give it a try.
"We are naturally superior, but there are many of them." Song Qian has confidence in his own people, but he is not blindly arrogant.
"It's all right, let them all wake up." Li Qingnian still made up his mind and followed with steps.
He can't stop halfway.
Retreat when you encounter difficulties, this is not the Li family's family motto.
Nor was it the teaching of his father.
Bai Lu looked back at Li Qingnian and followed, and then he was relieved.
She was afraid that Li Qingnian would leave directly because the situation in this village was too strange.
In that case, even if the whole village went with her, I am afraid that there would not be enough people for a hundred.
"You mean, the village has only been around for twenty years?" Bai Lu asked Lu Lao, and Lu Lao told her the history of the village, but she didn't listen carefully, only heard the last sentence.
"Yes, the goddess didn't dislike us back then, she rescued us and brought us to this paradise, and taught us to build houses and farm, so that we can live until now." Lu Lao said, looking at Bai Lu's blank and curious expression, his heart sank.
The first time he saw Bai Lu, he really thought that the goddess had returned.
But on closer inspection, this woman is not quite the same as a goddess.
She was more immature than the goddess.
At that time, he knew that this person was not a goddess, and now looking at her appearance that she didn't know anything, he was really dead.
However, since he looks so similar to the goddess, he must have an extraordinary relationship with the goddess.
What he didn't notice was that Bai Haisheng, who was walking behind him, had a darker and darker face.
