Chapter 411: Guardian of the Gods
I sneered, "In your eyes, it's a god, but in my opinion, it's just an evil thing that needs to be killed!" ā
"But ......"
Lili looked hesitant, as if she was terrified of taking me to the gods.
"Don't worry, you just need to help me lead the way, if you are afraid of danger, you can leave when you get to the place where the monster is."
I said lightly.
"IāI'm not afraid!"
Lili immediately stood up and stroked her messy hair: "Mr. Cheng, I'll take you there." ā
After that, Lili and I left the house and walked downstairs.
At this time, most of the villagers were still carrying out the tasks of the village chief, and some of the women who stayed in the wooden building were busy cooking, and when they saw me and Lili walking outside together, they didn't dare to ask anything, just said hello, and continued to busy themselves.
Lili led me around the area where the villagers were concentrated, and followed a stone staircase hidden in the weeds, winding upwards, and soon reached the halfway point of the mountain.
I glanced around, and then I realized that this was the same mountain that the village chief had sacrificed to the gods yesterday, but the road that Lili had led me over was relatively hidden and not easy for people to find.
The further up I went, the steeper the mountain road became, and at the top of the nearby mountain, there was even a ladder, and I asked Lili to follow behind, and after climbing up, I finally came to the top of the mountain.
"This is where we used to worship the gods."
After climbing to the top of the mountain, Lili hid behind me and whispered.
I nodded, and looked around, and saw that the top of the hill was overgrown with vines, and not far away from the cliff, the clouds were rolling, and a dazzling light was emanating from the clouds, staining the whole cloud a golden yellow.
It seems that this is the round of sun hanging in the sky of Sanssouci Village, and it is only at this time that I am finally sure that this sun is indeed an impostor!
The reason is very simple, the real sun, hundreds of millions of kilometers away from the earth, even if you climb to the world's highest peak, if you can see the sun, you need to raise your head and look up.
But this peak, the highest is only about a thousand meters, here I just stand on the top of the mountain and look down, you can see the golden edge of the sun, not to mention that this round of the sun does not rise in the east and sets in the west, it has been fixed in one place, so I can immediately conclude that the sun in the sky of Sanssouci Village is a man-made fake!
If you want to compare it, the whole Sanssouci Village is like an artificially built scene, and the sun in the sky is an incandescent lamp erected above the scene!
"You stand here and don't move, I'll go over and have a look."
I gave Lili a shout and walked towards the light source, trying to determine what the true body of the sun was.
But I had just taken two steps when there was a thud, and a sharp branch flew in, digging deep into the dirt beneath my feet.
Immediately, an old man in a gray robe, with a black cane in his hand, appeared from behind a rock and walked towards me.
The old man looked to be at least seventy or eighty years old, with a rickety figure, silver hair, and the skin on his face was as dry as a plateau of soil erosion.
"Boy, what kind of person are you who dare to disturb the gods?"
Walking up to me, the old man stared at me with a sinister gaze and a hoarse voice.
"Who is he, do you know?"
I didn't pay attention to the old man's questioning, but just turned back to Lili and asked.
"No, I don't know."
Lili shook her head: "The last time I came to worship the god, I didn't see him. ā
"Ignorance!"
The old man shouted angrily and began to report to his house: "I am the guardian of the gods, and this is a forbidden place for the gods, how can you wait for mortals to come and go at will?" Don't leave quickly! ā
I didn't move half a step, I just smiled at the old man.
"Old gentleman, I am a foreign tourist, and I heard that the mountain gods here are very effective, so I came to worship and hope that you would be convenient."
The old man said coldly: "There have been foreign tourists in Sanssouci Village, this deceptive lie should be kept and go back to coax your children, get out!" ā
My face turned cold, "What if I have to meet your so-called god?" ā
"Then you're going to die!"
The old man let out a loud cry and stomped his left foot on the ground, and suddenly a huge crack appeared in the ground and spread towards the place where I stood.
"Get out of the way!"
I pushed Lili aside, and at the same time jumped up, and the Martial King Whip in my hand smashed into the old man's head.
This old man is full of demonic energy, I have long seen that he is not a good thing, and now that he has prevented me from finding out the truth, I naturally do not need to spare him.
Although this old man is very old, his movements are not slow at all, and in the face of the Martial King whip that I slashed horizontally, as soon as he raised his wrist, he put the crutch across his chest.
With a sonorous sound, the whip of the martial king smashed on the crutch, making a crisp loud sound, I only felt a tingling in the tiger's mouth, and quickly took a few steps back, and then I was able to stand firm.
As soon as I stood still, I was thinking of using the talisman to deal with the old man, when suddenly there was a rustling sound around me, and I swept away the rest of my eyes, and saw that the vines were spreading rapidly towards me as if they had come to life.
Before I could react, the vines that spread in all directions wrapped around my ankles, making me unable to move.
I hurriedly raised the Martial King's whip and whipped it on the vines, only to find that the vines were so tough that they couldn't be broken at all.
"Boy, these are the black blood vines I raised with essence blood, how can you smash them open at will? Let's die obediently! ā
As he spoke, the old man smiled and walked up to me, his cane in his hand, already held high.
In a hurry, I didn't have time to react too much, and I was about to release Xiao Hei, but suddenly with a bang, the old man's body shook, and he fell straight down.
Behind him, Lili held a huge rock in both hands, still panting violently.
I quickly released the little black and let it bite off the vines that were wrapped around my ankles one by one, so that I could break free.
"Lili, thank you."
I arched my hand and thanked Lili.
Although she had been cautious before, seducing me under the coercion of the village chief, just to save her own life, her current performance has already impressed me.
"Mr. Cheng, no thanks."
Lili smiled shyly and waved her hand.
"Now we are comrades in the trenches, as long as we can destroy that monster and let us get out of here, I will be very happy if I can do you a little favor."
"Well, you didn't do it a simple favor, but you saved my life."
I smiled, glanced down at the old man on the ground, and saw that he was covered in blood and had completely fainted, so I didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to walk towards the light source outside the cliff.
