Chapter 54: Lady Mikawa
"This dress is exactly the same as the goddess under the river!"
Xie Heng exclaimed.
When she saw Lu Tingting take out these clothes, it was difficult to take her words as a joke.
The people in their village want Lu Tingting to replace God!
"Same!?"
Xie Xiaozhuang didn't completely see the appearance of the god statue at the bottom of the river just now, but Grandpa Zeng couldn't be mistaken.
Before Xie Heng and them could ask, it was Lu Tingting herself who said first: "The gods worshiped in the village used to wear this body. ”
The grandparents and grandchildren glanced at each other, that is to say, Lu Tingting herself knows?
"Ask tentatively."
Xie Heng was curious, what was the reason that would cause Luzhai Village to throw the statues of gods and gods that should be worshiped into the river at will, but instead caught a little girl and asked her to be this so-called god.
"That'...... What about God? ”
Xie Xiaozhuang asked.
Lu Tingting put her clothes back in the room, then walked out again, and replied flatly: "I threw it into the river, I don't know where it is." ”
Seeing that Xie Xiaozhuang's brain was down, Lu Tingting said, "Do you want to know?" Let me tell you about it? ”
Xie Xiaozhuang nodded hurriedly, of course she wanted to know.
Lu Tingting then sat on the side and began to talk to Xie Xiaozhuang: "Our Luzhai Village, Chenjia Village and Dongjie Village have been located together since ancient times, connected by a mother river, and the villagers all rely on this river to live, that is, the river we saw when we passed by just now. ”
"However, because the three villages often fought each other, the river was divided into three sections very early, so it was called the Three Rivers, and together a god called the Lady of the Three Rivers was offered to pray for good weather and abundant harvests."
Xie Heng suddenly realized that the goddess statue he saw in the river should be the lady of Sanhe in Lu Tingting's mouth.
"But since the gods of the three villages have been worshiped since ancient times, why did there suddenly have such a big change?"
Xie Heng was puzzled, he had been worshipping for so many years, and he suddenly stopped worshipping and threw him into the river, there must be some reason.
Xie Xiaozhuang acted as a substitute again and asked again.
"In the early years, Mrs. Sanhe was still very effective, begging for a son to get a son, begging for rain to fall, the village had few disasters and difficulties, and the harvest was good, and the people in the village were so sincere that they couldn't do it."
"But later, didn't the evil spirit appear? Many people died in the village, and then the villagers invited Mrs. Mikawa out to cure the ghosts. ”
As a result, Lady Mikawa did not appear. The demons still ran rampant and destroyed the temple, and since then many people in the village have stopped believing in Lady Mikawa. ”
Lu Tingting paused and continued.
Come to think of it, the broken temple that Xie Heng saw from a distance at the door just now should be the Temple of the Lady of Sanhe that was destroyed in Lu Tingting's mouth.
"But what does this have to do with you?"
Xie Xiaozhuang asked.
Even if the villagers no longer believe in Mrs. Sanhe because of the evil ghosts, it should have nothing to do with Lu Tingting.
"It matters."
Lu Tingting sank, and after a long pause, she continued to answer: "Because the evil ghost at that time was finally killed by me." ”
"Ah??!h
Xie Xiaozhuang's mouth opened wide and he was shocked.
Xie Heng put his hand on his great-granddaughter's shoulder and explained, "This classmate of yours is a ghost master, and it is indeed possible to kill evil ghosts. ”
Xie Xiaozhuang, who had just recovered a little, was immediately stunned when he heard Grandpa Great's words.
Lu Tingting smiled and said, "Before I killed the evil ghosts on behalf of Mrs. Sanhe, I knew very well that they had always treated me as a fool and called me behind my back, 'village keeper'. ”
"There was even a time when they thought that the fools in every village, the 'village keepers', must be gods with special powers."
"After that, they lost the idol and didn't want to repair the temple, so they got me a set of clothes and asked me to be a god in the village, and if there were ghosts in the village, I would kill them."
"But I'm not a god, I can kill ghosts because I have another ghost hidden in my body."
Xie Xiaozhuang: "You must know that you are just a ghost master, and every time you use the power of ghosts, you will die quickly!" ”
Ghost Riders are now a profession, and the rules are no secret.
"I know, they didn't know at first, and then they all knew."
"But compared to the ethereal, high god, it's obviously easier for me, the village keeper, to control."
"It's not like I didn't make a request, otherwise how could I suddenly be able to go to school, and still know you as classmates?"
Lu Tingting spread her hands and said.
She didn't expect Xie Xiaozhuang to really come, this was the first time a friend had come to her house.
The two of them have eaten and lived together for so long, she still knows Xie Xiaozhuang very well, and it is really good to have a broken mouth and a broken mouth.
It's not a secret, it's been hidden for a long time, and it's very depressing.
However, if it wasn't for Xie Xiaozhuang's real running over today, then she wouldn't have said it.
Xie Heng didn't speak, listening to Lu Tingting's words, it was her own choice to become the 'god' of the village.
Xu City only has five ghost handlers, how rare.
In a small village like theirs, once there is a demon tamper, it will take a long time.
Therefore, they need their own 'gods' so that they can protect the village in time.
Also, she can't join the Ghost Riders, because in that case, she will inevitably be transferred to a place where the damage will be greater after the appearance of evil spirits, and she will not be able to stay in the village.
In exchange, Lu Tingting's request was to let the village send her to school, and it is estimated that she is also out of the relationship, otherwise it is unlikely that a student who did not have a school status before suddenly wants to enter high school.
Perhaps, going to school is just an obsession for Lu Tingting.
"Do you want to do it yourself?" Xie Xiaozhuang asked.
"After all, I grew up in this village, and I don't want to." Lu Tingting replied.
She knows all the big and small things in the village, and she does whatever the village needs, and she is used to it.
At this point, there was silence in the room.
……
Night.
Xie Xiaozhuang always felt that his mood was difficult to calm down for a long time, and his body was not very comfortable.
I lay in bed with Lu Tingting early, but everyone was snoring, and she still couldn't fall asleep over and over.
At this time, I suddenly remembered the doctor's words and asked her to take a pill before going to bed tonight, so I got up and took the medicine.
I lay back on the bed, and after a while, I fell asleep.
In front of the stage in the village, the seats in the first row were empty, and no one dared to sit on them.
Xie Heng sat down leisurely and watched the play with Erlang's legs crossed.
I didn't get up and leave until late at night, when the song ended.
There's nothing wrong with being a ghost, it's just that there's too much time, especially at night, when everyone else is sleeping and there's no activity at all.
"What are the other ghosts doing at this point?"
Xie Heng muttered, and just happened to walk to the river.
In the moonlight, a figure stood on the riverbank with a twist, as if it was fishing for something.
Xie Heng took two steps closer, and saw that the man was wearing a red robe, with golden scale armor wrapped under the red robe, civil and military sleeves on both sides, and a crown on his head, how familiar he looked.
Who else could be in such a costume but Mrs. Mikawa?
As if sensing someone approaching, the figure by the river suddenly turned its head.
