Chapter 215: My Duty
The clouds covered the moon, and only the stars remained.
Wei Yang listened to the sound of the Jin Ge Iron Horse outside the canyon, and panicked for a moment, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Lin Ye.
When he saw that Consultant Lin was still sitting indifferently, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It shouldn't be a big deal.
And soon he also knew what the sound of the Jin Ge Iron Horse outside the canyon was.
An army, judging by the costumes, should be the army of the Han Dynasty.
Wei Yang watched the old village chief stand up and face the leader of this army, through the conversation between the village chief and this leader, Wei Yang knew that this leader was a captain, and he came out to pursue the enemy army on the order of Chen Qian, the county guard of Beidi.
The village chief informed the captain that they were the villagers who had taken refuge, and asked the villagers to provide food for the soldiers, but when the village chief took the villagers to prepare food, he did not notice the captain's cold eyes.
"My lord, the above asked us to come out and kill the enemy, but the enemy has already run away, if we fail to kill the enemy, we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to go back to the errand."
"What do you think?"
"The villagers here have migrated from their original residences, their household registration is no longer searchable, and the people of this village have migrated without the consent of the government, which is tantamount to desertion, and should be severely punished according to the law."
"In that case, why don't we kill these people and take their heads to pretend to be enemy soldiers, and then you can give an account to Lord Chen."
The lieutenant groaned for a few breaths, and the next moment he swung his long knife.
Wei Yang saw the bloodiest and most cruel scene in his life.
The soldiers rushed into the village and raised their spears at the villagers who were giving them food, but for a quarter of an hour there was not a single person left in the village.
Looking at the child who fell not far in front of him, staring wide-eyed, Wei Yang only felt that his whole body was trembling, not scared, not cold, but angry.
Kill the good and take the risk!
These soldiers slaughtered innocent civilians.
After watching these soldiers kill the villagers, they raised their big knives to cut off the heads of the villagers, Wei Yang couldn't hold back any longer, and was about to rush over and grab the butcher knife in the hands of the soldier who was about to cut the child in front of him, but unfortunately, his hand went directly through the long knife and even through the soldier's body.
Wei Yang was stunned, and the next moment he looked at Lin Ye.
"These are all things that happened thousands of years ago, and they have become a fact and cannot be stopped."
Lin Ye shook his head, if he could stop it, he would have stopped it a long time ago.
The soldiers cut off the heads of all the villagers, plundered the food, and then set a fire and left the gorge with the heads of seventy-three villagers in the firelight.
Killing good and risking merit is a common thing for ancient frontier generals.
There are only four words in history, he doesn't think it weighs much, but after witnessing it with his own eyes at this moment, he knows what these four words mean?
Especially a moment ago, these villagers were still alive in front of him.
The flames did not last long, and soon dissipated because of a torrential rain from the sky.
The torrential rain extinguished the flames of sin and washed away the blood stains on the villagers, and the seventy-three headless corpses lay on the ground.
Looking at these headless corpses, Wei Yang suddenly understood why those children let him remember their names and facial features.
"My name is Mao Dan!"
"My name is Furball!"
"My name is Maomao!"
"Uncle, you have to remember our names."
"Uncle, my name is Maomao, don't forget, I have a mole on my face."
"Let's go!"
Lin Ye got up and walked towards the outside of the canyon, Wei Yang silently followed, and when the two walked to the mouth of the canyon, the figure of the old village chief appeared again, saluted the two of them, and then turned around and led the way in front.
……
……
There are ancient temples deep in the mountains.
A temple of the local Buddhist sect fell in front of Lin Ye and Wei Yang.
The old village chief stood at the door of the temple, looking at the temple door with some fear, and did not dare to step in.
"Uncle, what are you bringing us here for?"
Wei Yang asked suspiciously, he originally thought that the old village chief would take them to find the heads of the villagers, but he didn't expect to bring him and Advisor Lin to the temple.
"Two distinguished guests, the heads of the people in our village are in this temple, for more than a thousand years, all the resentment has dissipated, we just want to take the head and bury it with the corpse, so that we can be reincarnated."
The old village chief pounced and knelt down in front of Lin Ye and Wei Yang: "I hope that the two distinguished guests will come to the rescue." ”
"Why does the old man have to be like this, he should do his part to eat a rich feast."
Lin Ye's right hand was raised slightly, and the old man stood up uncontrollably, looking at this quiet ancient temple, Lin Ye strode in, and Wei Yang followed.
Entering the ancient temple, Wei Yang saw that there were seventy-three pointed stone towers erected in the courtyard of this temple, each stone tower was about two meters high, wide at the bottom and pointed at the top, and a talisman was pasted on each stone tower.
In the main hall in front of the courtyard, a stone statue is erected.
Seeing this stone statue, Wei Yang's face had a look of surprise, this stone statue was exactly the same as the stone statue that had been smashed by Advisor Lin before, the difference was that this stone statue of the Bodhisattva was larger, three times the size of the former, and there were various colors on the body.
These colors not only failed to increase the beauty of the stone statue, but made the Bodhisattva's face look a little hideous and weird, just looking at this Bodhisattva, Wei Yang felt a little chill in his heart.
"Chen Qian, the county guard of Hanbei County, is a dignified official of the territory, so he is willing to hide in this small temple!"
Lin Ye's sudden opening made Wei Yang's whole body on guard, and his eyes were patrolling back and forth, but he didn't find any other figures in the courtyard.
"Who are you? Why do you want to be an enemy of this official? ”
A hoarse voice came from inside the main hall, and Wei Yang looked into the main hall and found that the mouth of the stone statue bodhisattva had moved.
That Beidi County Taishou Chen Qian, turned out to be this stone carving Bodhisattva?
"It's not an enemy of you, but it's just a request from those unjustly killed villagers to retrieve their heads, so that they can go to the underworld to be reincarnated."
"You're here for these ghosts? At the beginning, these resentful ghosts were full of resentment, and the official suppressed their heads, which was also a desire to moderate them, since you were entrusted by them, the official will give you a face today, and let you leave with these heads. ”
This Chen Taishou is very talkative, and Lin Ye also smiled and said: "My lord is so easy to speak, why don't you let me complete my duties again." ”
"What is your duty?"
"Kill the ghosts, punish the evil!"
Lin Ye spat out lightly, and the entire temple became silent because of his words.
He didn't say this to be a trick, Lin Ye has also discovered a change in himself these days, that is, if a ghost has a grievance, as long as he is close, he will feel it.
He thought about it carefully, this special feature started after he refined the City God Seal, and after thinking about it for a while, he probably found the reason.
The seal of the city god is owned by the city god, and it governs the ghosts of a place, and the ghosts who have been wronged can also avenge the city god's yin division.
He has refined the seal of the city god, but he is not a city god, so he can only vaguely sense it, and those ghosts who have been wronged may also feel it, so they will find themselves to sue and avenge their grievances.
In a sense, he is also a volva division.
