Chapter 152: The Living Sacrifice
Under the foundation of Akang's new house, it is actually a passage to the Yin Cao, because his excavation has indeed destroyed the leylines here, and the Yin Spirits in armor we saw in a queue before are actually the Yin soldiers in the Yin Cao!
As for the ghosts carrying lanterns, they are the sentinels of the Yin soldiers!
These Yin soldiers have extremely heavy yin energy, and it is easy for some children with insufficient congenital yang energy to be contaminated and fall into a semi-comatose state, and unconsciously, they follow those Yin soldiers into the yin side.
However, these Yin soldiers are all Yin spirits with Yin origin, and they will not attack the living at will, and it will not be long before those bewitched children will automatically wake up, and then they will be able to come out of the Yin side and return home.
As for the woman in red who was singing on the stage, Lao Dixian shook her head, saying that he didn't know her identity either.
After some inquiry, I let the old earth fairy leave, and we returned to the quiet house, intending to investigate the situation of the red-clothed female ghost the next day.
The next morning, as soon as I was getting dressed, there was a sharp knock on the door outside, and I went up and opened the door, and I saw Quiet standing in front of me, full of anxiety.
"Mr. Cheng, it's not good!"
"The villagers are going to burn Ah Kang to death today, please go and save him!"
My heart moved, and I quickly woke up Bai Ze, Lonnie, and Cortana, and several people hurriedly walked out of the house under the guidance of a quiet and quiet leader.
Soon, we came to a small square in the center of Sijiazhuang, which was already full of people and crowded with villagers.
An altar had been arranged in the middle of the small square, and the quiet husband Akang was tied to a pillar at this moment, and under the pillar, a pile of dry firewood was placed.
Two men with big shoulders and round waists, holding a torch in their hands, stood on either side of Akang, ready to light a fire at any time.
The old village chief of Sijiazhuang is standing next to the altar and giving a speech to the villagers.
"Everyone, listen to me."
The old village chief stretched out his hand to suppress it, and the crowd suddenly quieted down, and everyone looked at the old village chief and waited for him to speak.
"Our temple has been in peace for decades, but recently strange things have happened frequently, many innocent villagers have died because of this, and the culprit of all this is him!"
The old village chief stretched out his hand and pointed at Ah Kang, with a look of anger in his eyes.
"It was because he didn't listen to the advice and dug up the dragon veins underground, so the dragon master brought disaster to our temple."
"Today, we are going to sacrifice Ah Kang alive to appease the anger of the Dragon Lord, and I hope you can be a witness!"
As soon as the old village chief's words fell, a warm cry suddenly erupted in the crowd.
"Burn him, burn him!"
The people pointed at Akon and shouted loudly, with great anger on their faces.
These villagers are not evil, but because of cognitive defects, everyone believes in the words of the old village chief, as if as long as Ah Kang dies, everything will be calmed down.
"No, I'm going to save him!"
Standing quietly behind the crowd, seeing this scene, he couldn't hold it anymore, and he immediately rushed into the crowd to save Akang.
I quickly reached out and pulled her back.
"Don't be impulsive, if you go over now, not only will you not be able to save Akang, but it will cause the anger of the villagers and let them vent their anger on you!"
"But ......"
Jing Jing was about to say something, and I waved my hand at her: "No need to say more. ”
"If you still believe us, do what I say, and I can assure you that Akon will be fine."
When I said this, Jing Jing was still a little worried, but he didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only stand aside and wait for my instructions.
I asked Lonnie and Bai Ze to take care of them on the periphery, and I squeezed into the surging crowd, constantly approaching the altar, and while the people were not looking, I quickly took out a talisman and stuffed it into the dry wood under Akon.
After a while, the old village chief looked up at the sky, and then said, "The hour has come, and the living sacrifice begins!" ”
With his order, the two strong men next to the altar immediately put the torches in their hands on the pile of dry firewood.
However, for some reason, as soon as the torch touched the dry wood, it was like being put into water, and it went out!
The two men were full of surprise, looked at the torch in their hands, and then looked at the pile of dry firewood, and couldn't figure out what was going on!
"How?"
The old village chief glanced at the two of them dissatisfiedly, and then lit the torch himself and put it on top of the dry firewood.
Only a thud was heard, and the torch was extinguished again.
At this moment, the old village chief also showed a puzzled expression on his face, there is no problem with the torches, and there is no problem with dry firewood, why can't it be lit?
As everyone knows, the reason why this torch can't be lit is the effect of the talisman I just put in.
This is at the foot of the Great Lonely Mountain, the old man gave a fire amulet, after applying, you can avoid all the fire within ten minutes.
"I think this should be God's will, God won't let you burn Ah Kang!"
When I saw that the fire had arrived, I stood up and said loudly to the old village chief and the villagers.
Most of the villagers living in this isolated countryside are ignorant and superstitious, and I know that if I save people directly, I will definitely have conflicts with the villagers.
So simply use a method that the villagers can understand, and tell them that it is a wrong act to sacrifice Akang alive.
Sure enough, when I said this, people focused their eyes on me, with a hint of hesitation in their eyes.
"Who are you?"
The old village chief glanced at me and shouted.
"I'm a gentleman who passed by here and noticed the yin qi in your village, so I came to check it out."
"After my investigation, it can be determined that what happened in your village has nothing to do with Ah Kang, but is actually a breeding of evil caused by the change of feng shui pattern, as long as the leylines are repaired, those evil spirits will naturally disappear."
"Why should we trust you?"
The old village chief stared at me and said in a skeptical tone.
"It's simple,"
I said, "I can now conclude that the children in your village who were missing before tomorrow will come back on their own before sunset." ”
"Moreover, after I repair the leyline feng shui, there will be no more ghost fires in the future."
"As for other supernatural events, they have nothing to do with Xiaokang."
At this time, several children in the crowd also pointed at me and shouted.
"This uncle was the one who sent us home last night, and he was the one who saved us!"
The old village chief called the children over and asked them about what had happened yesterday, and when the children had finished speaking, his doubts about me had dissipated a lot.
