Chapter 31: The Earth Immortal Sacrifice
Hearing my words, Liu Qi and the others glanced at each other, and there was a complicated look in their eyes, and after a while, Liu Qi sighed: "This matter is a long story. ”
"How about our advanced village?"
"Once you've entered the village, you'll know."
I'm a little skeptical.
It stands to reason that I shouldn't have believed them.
After all, I don't know these people, and the Dixian Village in front of me is obviously not simple, but my godfather's last words and the fact that this is indeed a lame dog brought me here, I have to be cautious.
As if knowing my scruples, Liu Qi said again: "Don't worry, we don't have any ill will towards you, besides, even if we are really bad people, we don't dare to do anything to the famous disciples of Tianshi Mountain." ”
I looked at him and said, 'Should I believe you?' This sentence was imprinted on his face.
It's just that when it comes to this, I feel like I don't have any other choice.
With so many people here, even if I wanted to leave now, I wouldn't be able to get out.
Thinking of this, I said, "That's not what I meant......"
"Hey, forget it, let's go check it out first."
I pretended to be very entangled, and then I let the lame dog from my arms, and it was only after seeing the lame dog run straight towards the village that my heart calmed down a little.
I said a few times that I was going to slaughter the dog.
But I still have some trust in it in my heart.
After all, this dog is not only related to my godfather, but also to my wife.
Seeing that I agreed to enter the village, Liu Qi and his party were obviously relieved, and then Liu Qi led the way in front, and the other people left in turn after entering the village, I didn't ask them where they went, but they also had some guesses in their hearts.
If nothing else, they must have gone back to their respective homes, or done something to prepare.
After walking for a while, I felt more and more that this village was creepy.
When I was outside at first, I only knew that a few of them were from the Ma Xian's house, and I saw some coffins and guessed that there were people who were in the same vein as chasing corpses.
And when I came in, I was sure of the latter, for I saw with my own eyes a man in a hat rattling a bell to summon a corpse to do something.
In addition to this, I also saw several Taoist priests.
Those Taoist priests are obviously not from Tianshi Mountain, but from Maoshan Mountain.
Maoshan is also a well-known existence of Taoism, because there are no classes of teaching, there are countless disciples, and lay disciples are all over the world.
When I was in school, I often met some Taoist priests, and most of those Taoist priests called themselves Maoshan disciples, but in fact, most of them were lay disciples and did not have much ability.
However, those Taoist priests in this village, I can be sure at a glance that they are not simple characters, although there is a high probability that they are not as good as Zhang Huaiqing, who is dead but still unpredictable, but I am afraid that it is not something I can provoke.
I've also met some people who are just as weird, but I can't see the details.
This also makes me like this place even more.
It doesn't feel like a village.
It's like a ......
A place where three religions and nine streams converge.
It wasn't until I was taken by Liu Qi to the place that was obviously the ancestral hall of Dixian Village that Liu Qi stopped, and my eyes were attracted by the scene of the ancestral hall for the first time.
This ancestral hall is very strange and strange.
If you look closely, you can see that this ancestral hall is divided into four parts.
There are five statues representing the first line of the horse occupying the northern part of the ancestral hall, some representing the first line of Maoshan occupying the south, one of the corpses occupying the west, and those who do not know the origin of the eastern part.
The middle position is relatively normal, it should be the real ancestral hall of Dixian Village, but there is a sword on the table, although it looks like it is carved in stone, it is cold and very sharp.
It's just that, no matter which part it is, it gives me a lifeless feeling at this time.
Those inside, each of them sat on the ground without the slightest movement, and the entire ancestral hall was hung with black and white cloth, making the ancestral hall look like a mourning hall.
"What the hell is going on?"
The more I watched, the more terrified I became.
I also probably understood what Liu Qi meant when I entered the village.
Can......
What would be the big thing that would make them all look like this?
Liu Qi shook his head slightly and didn't answer me directly, but took me into the middle part, until he stood in front of the sword, Liu Qi bowed to the sword three times before looking at me with a solemn expression: "It's because of the Earth Immortal Sacrifice!" ”
"Earth Immortal Festival?" I wondered, "What's that?" ”
"The master should know what an earth immortal is, right?"
Liu Qi looked at me.
I nodded.
As I said before, my cheap wife may have been a living immortal, but she has an inextricable relationship with Hou Tu Niang.
And now, this village is called Dixian Village, and now there is another Dixian Festival, could it be that it is related to my wife?
When I think about this, I'm a little speechless.
Seeing me nodding, Liu Qi continued: "The so-called Earth Immortal Sacrifice is actually a sacrifice about Earth Immortals. ”
"This village is called Dixian Village, in addition to the inseparable relationship between this place and the living Dixian, but also because those of us who came here have been blessed by that lineage."
"We are able to live here because of that ......"
"Wait a minute." I interrupted Liu Qi's words and asked incomprehensibly: "Don't say anything else, as long as you are famous in the Northeast, even I know something." ”
"Why are you here, blessed by the immortals?"
"The earth immortals are just people who guard the village, and your five immortals are not far behind, right?"
Liu Qi smiled bitterly: "This is a long story. ”
"If you were to talk about it, it would be a very long time ago."
"And I have to trace a secret of the strange world, but we are already juniors and don't know much about it, we only know that there are ancestral teachings, and we can't say too much."
I pouted.
Reluctant to say.
Then you still ask me to do something?
What's going on?
As if seeing my dissatisfaction, Liu Qi continued: "Let's talk about the immortal sacrifice first!" ”
"We, every eighteen years, need to hold a sacrifice, this sacrifice, called the Earth Immortal Festival, means to communicate with the real owner of this Earth Immortal Village, that is, the former keeper of this village, and obtain the qualification to continue to live here."
"Eighteen years ago, Zhang Huaitian Zhang Sacrificial Wine held this sacrifice for us, so that we could live here for another eighteen years, but eighteen years ago, we had lost the qualification to live here and needed to leave here, which was the eighteen years that Zhang Sacrificial Wine asked for us more."
"Now, eighteen years later, we still have reached the time to leave, if we don't leave, we will all die, but once we leave, we will also die."
"So Zhang Xijiu asked for a heavenly opportunity for us."
"Then he told us that eighteen years from now, that is, today, there will be you, who will come and hold another sacrifice for us, and pray for us to be safe for another eighteen years."
I was silenced by that.
After a while, I couldn't help but say, "If you stay here, you will die, I can still understand it, after all, the taboo is indeed difficult to say." ”
"But get out of here...... Why are you still dead? ”
