Chapter 388: A Chance Encounter with a Holy Maiden

"Sister Shuang, look, isn't that the team for this sacrifice?" Xiao Man was the first to find out, she pointed to the sedan chair and said, "The person in there should be the Haoyue Holy Maiden of Haoyue Town!"

Ye Hua looked carefully, the woman in the sedan chair seemed to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, well-behaved and solemn, but the look between her eyebrows seemed to be a little incompatible with the joyful atmosphere. These are difficult to find except for Ye Hua, but after all, Ye Hua doesn't think so, he doesn't want to meddle in things, just leisurely admiring the parade in front of him.

"Ye Hua, this parade in Haoyue Town is famous, you really came to the right place today. Wan Yanshuang was also very happy to see the parade and kept introducing it to Ye Hua: "I haven't seen it for a long time, and after going out for so many years, I can't remember many things, but although I only saw this parade when I was a child, it made me remember it deeply." ”

"Every year at this time of year, there is a parade in the town, and there will be a sacrifice on the night of the full moon festival tomorrow, but this year this saint seems to have changed, not in previous years. Xiao Man looked at the saintess in the sedan chair and also saw some clues.

"Does this saintess change every year?" Ye Hua thought of something, so he asked casually.

"No, although I don't come every year, but the saint should be fixed and then no longer change, it is the same person every year, it seems that this is the town election, I heard that the family that was chosen as the saint is infinitely beautiful, not only the status has improved, but also a lot of money every year, I heard that people here want their daughters to be chosen. Xiao Man explained to Ye Hua.

"Oh, that means that if you are chosen as a saint, you should be very happy?" Ye Hua asked.

"That's not it!" Xiaoman said: "I don't know how this has changed, is it really rare to be re-elected!"

"Why?" Ye Hua looked at Xiao Man with some suspicion, and he asked.

"I've heard that the saint will be replaced, but I've heard that it will be at least thirty-five years old, but I remember that the saint I saw last year didn't seem to be very old. Xiaoman recalled the situation last year. "It's weird. ”

"Last year's saint disappeared, and this is her sister. At this time, the shopkeeper also heard the conversation of the three of them, "We have a rule here, if the saint leaves before she is old, then the rest of the time will be replaced by her family, if not, you will have to spend money to eliminate the disaster, we think it is unlucky for the saint to retire before the age of age." ”

"It's the first time I've heard of this!" Xiao Man looked at each other with wide eyes, "Where did the last saint go?"

"It's hard to say, I'm just an ordinary junior, and I don't know the inside story, it's just some hearsay. That little second originally intended to say something, but seeing that the shopkeeper's face was not very good, he quickly stopped.

"It's okay, don't know, forget it, we're just curious. Seeing this, Ye Hua waved his hand and let Xiao Er leave.

After the three of them had a meal, Ye Hua returned to the port with Wan Yanshuang and the others, the two of them had basically finished shopping, and planned to leave by boat. Wan Yan Shuang wanted to invite Ye Hua to the Wan Yan tribe as a guest before getting on the boat, but Ye Hua thanked her politely, although Wan Yan Shuang was more disappointed, she didn't do much entanglement, and still said goodbye to Ye Hua and got on the boat. Ye Hua also planned to leave this place after sending the two of them on the boat, although it was lively here, but he had also walked around, and it was time to leave.

"It's better to go to a place where there is no one!" Ye Hua saw that there was a forest near the dock, he walked in and walked towards the cliff outside the island.

He didn't go far when Ye Hua heard a cry, it was a woman's cry, he was curious, and followed the sound. Bypassing a bush, Ye Hua found a woman crying, her expression very sad, or with some guilt. Seeing that Ye Hua had discovered herself, she hurriedly turned around and ran into the depths of the woods.

"She doesn't like to be found crying?" Ye Hua couldn't figure out why the other party wanted to cry when she saw her, originally she was just curious, since others were not happy to see her, Ye Hua didn't plan to continue to catch up, at this time the woman had disappeared into the depths of the forest, "Forget it, did it scare others, it was really too abrupt to appear just now, let's let her go."

But Ye Hua was just about to turn around and leave, but he heard the woman's scream.

"Listening to the scream, did you encounter something scary? That woman is a little timid, I am afraid that this kind of forest will not encounter any jackals, tigers and leopards, there should be no danger. Ye Hua thought so, and didn't plan to go up.

"It's fate!"

But the woman's voice for help came again, and she seemed to be in real danger. Ye Hua thought that the woman was in danger, and he didn't care much, so he hurriedly rushed forward to check the situation. He didn't go far before he found that the woman was surrounded by a group of people, who were fiercely surrounding the woman, and the woman retreated again and again, and she showed an extremely panicked expression.

"Miss, come back with us, you can't run away!" said one of them to the woman.

"yes, why are you running, are we not good to you?" said another.

"Don't, you murderers, I hate you all my life!" the woman gritted her teeth, and she seemed to resist to the death.

"Hmph, that guy broke the rules and had to die, it's not our fault!"

"You're gone, don't you want to think about your sister, your family?" the man said again.

"My sister, don't threaten me with my family, I've had enough, I want to be free!"

Seeing that the woman was unwilling to comply, these people were ready to step forward and tie the woman up, looking at the fierce and vicious appearance of these people, the woman was forced to retreat. When Ye Hua saw this, he probably guessed something.

"You guys, in broad daylight, robbing people's daughters are too arrogant. Ye Huashen appeared behind these people unconsciously.

"Who are you, don't meddle here, it's our business. When those people saw Ye Hua, their hearts lit up, "Don't be alone with your energy, do you want to be a hero to save the United States." ”

"Well, I just saw a group of people bullying someone else and a woman, and it doesn't seem to be good. Ye Hua didn't look at these people at all, but looked at the woman, so that Ye Hua could see the woman's appearance a little clearly. Although that woman is not a first-class beauty like Ouyang Ling, she still looks good, and she can be regarded as good-looking.

"You're looking for death!" The other party didn't buy Ye Hua's account at all, and didn't take Ye Hua in his eyes at all, but looking at Ye Hua's clothes, they didn't make a move but asked, "You're not from here?"

"Well, no, just passing through here. Ye Hua nodded.

"Then you should leave quickly, and the face will hinder us from doing our business!"

"Robbing people's girls?" Ye Hua laughed again: "The people here are really strong, and robbing people's girls is also exact!"

"What do you know!" The group of people roared at him when they heard Ye Hua's ridicule: "If you don't leave, don't blame us for being rude!"

"I'll go, I'll leave if you let people go. Ye Hua did not forgive.

"Kill this guy, brothers. After saying that, the group of people took out the weapons in their hands, which were not actually weapons, but sticks, forks, and other farm tools.

"These people really don't look like bandits. Ye Hua saw the weapons in the hands of these people, and he thought to himself, "It's better not to take their lives." ”

Those people saw that Ye Hua was indifferent in the face of their attacks, and they thought that Ye Hua was too frightened to move, they were proud in their hearts, and they were sticking to Ye Hua. But after the stick went down, he found that Ye Hua was still motionless, and he was bounced far away by an invisible force, and fell to the ground heavily. The rest of the people were similar, and when the weapon touched Ye Huade, the whole person was bounced away, and seven or eight people fell to the ground at the same time, in pain.

"Hey, you don't look at it, this kind of attack of yours can't even break through my outermost spiritual power, and ordinary mortals still want to attack immortals?" Ye Hua bit his head helplessly.

"He's an immortal cultivator!" These people finally understood Ye Hua's identity, "The guy knows immortal arts!"

"Finally got it?" Ye Hua sighed, "Do you still want to come?"

"Run!" After listening to Ye Hua's words, these people also felt bad, they didn't even take their weapons, they got up and ran away, and didn't forget to turn back to Ye Hua and say, "You will regret doing this, let's go and tell the priest about this!"

"Priest?" Ye Hua heard this from the other party's mouth, and he secretly realized that this matter might not be as he imagined, but he still said with a mockery: "Hehe, I want to see what priest dares to rob the people's daughter." ”

Seeing that these people were all leaving in a hurry, Ye Hua walked up to the woman and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

The woman wiped the tears from her eyes, made a big gift to Ye Hua, and said, "Little woman Guo Yue thanks the immortals for their grace. ”

"I don't think it's time to save your life, and I don't think even if those people snatch you back, you shouldn't be in danger of your life. Ye Hua comforted.

"The immortals don't know, although these people have no intention of taking my life from me, but if I am captured, I am afraid that life is better than death. Guo Yue was very frightened when she said this, as if she didn't want to go back even if she died.

"It's so serious!" Ye Hua didn't actually think about it so much, he just couldn't get used to seeing a group of men bullying a weak woman here, seeing that the woman was fine, he said again: "If you plan to escape from here, I can take you away by the way." ”

Suddenly, Guo Yue knelt down and kowtowed to Ye Hua, making Ye Hua confused: "I'm just taking you away by the way, you don't need to make such a big gift!"

"The immortal misunderstood!" Guo Yue stood up and whispered to Ye Hua: "I didn't want to leave by hiding in the forest, I just didn't worry about some things, so I didn't leave for the time being, but what happened today made me very sad, so I let the immortal see the embarrassing scene I had just now, and if I could, I asked the immortal to help." ”

"Tell me something. Guo Yue's words aroused Ye Huade's interest, he found a stone and sat down, and looked at the other party with interest, "If you want me to help, let's talk about the matter first." ”

Guo Yue saluted again, and then said to Ye Hua: "I wonder if the immortals have seen the parade in the town?"

Seeing Ye Hua nodding, she continued: "The saint on the sedan chair is my own sister, Guo Xi. ”

"In this way, you are!" Ye Hua finally knew the identity of the person in front of him, "I heard that you are missing, so your sister went to take your place." ”

"It seems that the immortals know a lot of things, so it's okay, I don't need to say more details. Guo Yue knelt down to worship Ye Hua again, her behavior surprised Ye Hua even more, and hurriedly helped her up.

"That's it, do you want me to help you rescue your sister?" Ye Hua deserved to be a person who came over, he had actually guessed the other party's intentions a long time ago.
