Chapter Ninety-Eight: There is a phoenix, and bad luck comes

Luo Yu felt a pain in his head, and absentmindedly told Chen and You to retreat to the room to rest. The temperature of the night was very low, and the mist seemed to be wrapped in a cold murderous aura, stabbing Luo Yu's back, and she always felt that there were a pair of vicious eyes watching her every move.

Turning around, Chen and You Wuxin bowed lightly to her with kind smiles on their faces.

"Uncle and aunt are also resting early!"

Luo Yu smiled politely, stroked his forehead with his hand, walked into the room next to Li Wangchen, and closed the door.

She always felt that You Wuxin and Chen's eyes were carrying something, was it an illusion?

Xing felt that he was thinking too much, Luo Yu let out a long breath, calmed his heart, took off his boots, and sat on the bed. The mink fur quilt was softly pillowed underfoot, and the temperature of the room gradually increased.

Luo Yu's eyes were closed, and he meditated well, but he couldn't help but fall asleep.

The dark damp air pervades the night, like the terror claws of the demon outstretched, with a chilling chill.

In his sleep, Luo Yu had a long dream.

In the dream, she seemed to be pulled by an invisible force to a dilapidated place. Here is backed by the mountains, the front is against the stream, the water is murmuring, and the shore is Zhitinglan. On the opposite side of the stream, it is covered by an old mountain, which seems to be an old man in the twilight, leaning forward, and his lonely back is stretched by the setting sun.

The old man's feet were so stiff that they seemed to be unable to close together, and a dazzling ray of sunlight shone through the gap between his feet, shining on Luo Yu's face, stabbing her eyes.

The mountain was so strange, from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, it was as if a sharp knife had penetrated it, cracking a hole as thick as a line, and the sun was rising, just enough to pass through this narrow gap and illuminate the place where Luo Yu stood.

In front of the dam is a low and dilapidated thatched house, and in front of the thatched house, there are several strings of red peppers and some dried bacon. The ground in front of the door was piled with dry firewood chopped down from the mountain, and next to it, there was a pergola simply erected of wood.

The door of the thatched house was half-open, and the chimney on the roof was emitting green smoke, and in the morning breeze, wisps drifted up to the sky.

A woodcutter dressed in animal skins came out of the house, carrying a hat in one hand, an axe in the other, and a pair of straw sandals on his feet, who was not tall or strong. He has a beard and gray temples, and he looks like he is in his fifties.

The woodcutter had just gone out. Behind came an old woman, emaciated, with thin, yellow hair hanging behind her, tied with strips of cloth, without any ornamentation. Her skin is yellow, her face is vegetable, and she is dull, but looking at the contours on her face, she doesn't think she looks ugly, but it makes people think that when this old woman was young, she must have been a beautiful embryo.

She grabbed two baked cakes in her hands, with a big belly, hurriedly beckoned to the woodcutter, and called: "Old man, I forgot to bring what I ate, take it, don't blame the old lady if you are hungry!"

When the woodcutter heard the voice, he turned around and carefully held the old woman, and said with a soft smile: "It's okay if I'm hungry, you have to be careful, don't fall!"

The corners of the old woman's mouth hooked up a good-looking smile, like a peach blossom slowly blooming in March, melting in Luo Yu's heart......

Her smile is really beautiful!

The old woman touched her stomach with love on her face, and said jokingly: "This child is so noisy, he has been in his mother's belly for three or four years, but he is reluctant to come out." You say, old man, the heir we have been asking for so hard is not a freak, is it?"

"It's nonsense, our child just can't bear her mother's belly, haha, being a father can afford to wait!"

The woodcutter took the baked cake handed by the old woman, put it in his pocket, and said with a smile: "I'm leaving!"

The old woman shouted at him, "Hey, old man, be careful, don't be eaten by wild beasts, I don't want to be widowed!"

"I won't let you be widowed, old woman!"

The woodcutter smiled back and went straight to Luo Yu's body.

Luo Yu couldn't help but smile, this old couple is really affectionate.

Time flies so fast! Luo Yu only felt a flower in front of him, and found that he appeared in the night, and it was still the same place. The night was a little foggy, and she was surrounded by a hazy mist, and the woodcutter could be seen pacing repeatedly in front of the door, with excitement and joy on his face, and a trace of anxiety in his eyes.

The door was closed, and the shrill pain of the old woman and the gentle comforting sound of the midwife could be heard inside.

Suddenly, Luo Yu noticed that a bolt of lightning tore through the sky, cutting across the mountain in front of the door, and the top of the mountain suddenly presented a picture that surprised her incomparably.

The mountain fog rushed up to the top of the mountain, bordering the clouds that were pressed down by the sky. A miraculous thing happened, and in the entanglement of clouds and fog, a golden light suddenly shot out, dazzling and dazzling.

Luo Yu saw a big bird covered in the clouds in a trance. It has dazzling fiery red tail feathers and feathers, an ice-blue lotus cockscomb, a swallow's jaw and a snake neck, and a turtle's tail...... Tall and perfect body, light and beautiful wings, and elegant and elegant face, all show the majesty of his king among birds.

It spread its wings, its tail stirred up the clouds, its crystal eyes rose with some red firelight, and a huge flame suddenly rose into the sky, and the loud phoenix chirped with it. Dazzling phoenix flames pierced the night sky, illuminating almost the entire mountaintop.

The phoenix is flying, its feathers are shining, and there is no trace of it.

It's going to fly higher.

Luo Yu opened her eyes wide to look for it, but in the surging clouds, she saw nothing.

Just as she was about to withdraw her gaze, another loud birdsong came, and in the thick clouds of the sky, the dashing figure of the phoenix appeared at some point, and the flames rising all over her body were like a shining stream of fire drawn from the July sky.

Luo Yu stared at it, and she couldn't help but become happy in her heart. As if something was destined in the dark, she suddenly thought of something?

The phoenix is nirvana, reborn from the ashes.

Yes, the phoenix in the sky was desperately turning into a streamer and swooping straight down in her direction. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a magical light and shot into the low and dilapidated thatched house. With a cry of "wow", the light in the clouds receded, and it was pitch black.

Luo Yu's heart was full of shock, she stared at the sky, there, there seemed to be a huge body lurking, hundreds of meters long, black and swarthy, she didn't see it too really.

In the gray sky, a pair of sapphire-like eyes opened, as if two pillars of sunlight were shining from the clouds, connecting heaven and earth.

Luo Yu looked at it, it seemed to be crying, one drop, two drops, and then it disappeared out of thin air, without a trace.

Luo Yu came back to his senses and touched two hot tears on his face, which ran down his cheeks and fell to the ground.

The woodcutter, who was anxiously waiting in front of the door, was overjoyed, and jumped up excitedly with his hand.

A group of villagers gathered together and rushed over. Luo Yu's eyes froze, because she saw in this group of people You Wuxin, who was in the prime of life, and Chen when he was young, Chen looked like You Ya, it was carved out of a mold.

This night, they all saw the change in the sky, which was a magical celestial phenomenon, with a phoenix to come, auspicious and wishful. It was definitely a good thing for the village, so they all came to congratulate the woodcutter.

The woodcutter's house was lively for a while, and Luo Yu also felt so happy, when the midwife took the baby out, everyone gathered around to watch, and they couldn't help but be amazed. This little girl born with a celestial phenomenon has a pink carved face, red like a tempting apple, which is very lovely. There was a crescent-shaped birthmark on her forehead, as bright as a peach blossom, which made her whole delicate and delicate face even more aura.

When Luo Yu saw her, there was an incredible expression on his face.

The villagers all thought that it was a god child from heaven and happily discussed the name of her. The woodcutter took her in his arms, looked at her face, meditated carefully, his eyes lit up, he carried her to the old woman on the bed, and said with a smile: "She was born with the celestial phenomena, and her feathers fell into the dust, so it is better to call her Yu'er!"

With tears in her eyes, the old woman tenderly stroked the baby's little mouth with her hand, and nodded to the woodcutter with satisfaction. This is really a rare good name, Luo Yu Luo Yu, she is like a god falling from the sky.

They have been married for 30 years, and they are finally old and have children, and the happiness is indescribable.

The woodcutter took the baby in his arms and embraced the old woman in his arms.

"Dad, mother, I finally found you!"

It turned out that this baby turned out to be her when she was a child.

Luo Yu couldn't cry, and pounced on the woodcutter and the old woman in ecstasy.

But she forgot that this was an illusory world, and she threw herself into the air, and she also ran into another picture.

The peaceful and tranquil atmosphere of the past has disappeared nowhere, and Baiyu Village is like a patient who is still breathing, leaning on the mountains, moaning in pain. The pungent smell of fireworks burned everywhere, and there was a sense of depression in the air, which made people feel very heavy. Luo Yu wiped her eyes and walked slowly along the road in the village, she wondered in her heart, why was there no one outside?

The weather was gloomy, and the thick clouds were tightly pressed together, and the dense pieces fell down one by one, launching a swift attack on the earth.

Today, the drizzling rain was very sad, and Luo Yu couldn't help but feel a little sad, as if there was a trace of cold needles around her body, constantly stabbing at her body, and she couldn't breathe for a while.

The light rain poured on her, and her head was covered with mist-like droplets, and she seemed to hear something, and walked towards the courtyard gate of the family.

The white silk was heavily tied to the bamboo pole, wet by the rain, and the wind was strong, but it couldn't blow it.

The fire burned in front of people's doors, and one after another, covered with red rashes and festering corpses, were thrown into the fire, burning brightly.

They all seem to have been infected with some very serious malaria disease, and they have to be burned in order to avoid infecting others.

Luo Yu was startled in his heart, and hurriedly ran in a certain direction.

She saw them again, but luckily they weren't what she feared. Both parents sat in front of the door, holding Xiao Luo Yu in their arms, with love on their faces.

But they didn't seem to be happy, and they looked preoccupied.

At this time, Luo Yu found that a group of villagers, under the leadership of You Wusin, went straight to their parents.

You Wusin's hair was tied into a whip and hung down on his shoulders. He was naked, and on his right chest, there was a fierce wolf head, hideous and terrifying. The lower body was only wearing a piece of animal skin, and there were no shoes on his feet, and the mud fell on his whole body, dirty.

And there was also a big staff in his hand, the staff was crooked and untidy, and it looked extremely rough and ordinary, but there were three human heads and skeletons of different sizes hanging on it, and the double holes of the skeleton emitted a terrifying faint green light, and if the timid person looked at it a few times, he was afraid that he would be frightened enough.

It is a staff with a mystical witch culture and a symbol of the sorcerer's supremacy. The people who can hold the staff are definitely the most loyal believers of the mountain god, and they are called the great wizards because the staff in their hands is the only token of communication with the mountain god.

Naturally, the person who holds this staff is the current patriarch You Wuxin, who is the supreme representative of this small mountain village.

Seeing the arrival of this group of people, the woodcutter and his wife showed a heavy face, stood up tremblingly, hugged Xiao Luo Yu, and knelt on the ground respectfully.

"Have you figured it out, if you think clearly, hand her over to the Honxiang Wizard and hold a sacrificial ceremony!"

You Wuxin looked at the woodcutter couple kneeling on the ground with a cold voice.

The woodcutter shook his head, hugged Xiao Luo Yu in his hand, and said sadly: "Respected Great Wizard, this disaster was not brought by Yu'er, she was only a few days old, you can do it, spare her." ”

You Wuxin sighed softly and said solemnly: "Luo Hao, it is a good thing that your daughter was born on the occasion of the Divine Phoenix Heavenly Phenomenon. However, the sorcerer reported to the Witch God last night, and the Witch God told me that I had to send Yu'er to the altar. Otherwise, the people in our village will not survive this malaria. For the sake of the lives of hundreds of people in the village, you can't be so selfish, you must hand over Yu'er to me and let the Witch God help us resolve this disaster!"

The old woman's eyes were in tears, and when she learned that she was going to send Xiao Luo Yu to the altar to worship the witch god, she was so sad that she seemed to be dozens of years old overnight, with gray hair and the corners of her eyes were pale.

She knelt in front of You Wusin, stood up without fear, gritted her teeth and said, "What kind of immortal is it." In our White Fish Village, once every ten years, you all have to send a pair of boys and girls to worship it. If it's really a god, why should it eat people?"

The woodcutter also stood up, took the old woman's hand, and said righteously: "You are not guilty, I'm afraid you know best, the so-called witch god is just a monster who eats people and doesn't spit out bones, it's funny that you treat it like a savior!"

"Don't be ashamed to say that you dare to question Lord Wu Shen, damn it! Lord Wu God has blessed our ancestors for generations, and it has continued to this day, how can you allow you and other villains to question, come and tie up three of his family for me and send them to the altar!"

You Wuxin suddenly changed color, picked up his staff and pointed it straight to the sky, and a wisp of black gas floated out, trapping the woodcutter and the old woman in an instant.

snatched Xiao Luo Yu from the woodcutter's arms, he held her high, the rain hit Xiao Luo Yu's face, and she opened her pink little mouth and cried!

"Witch God!"

"Witch God!"

......

A group of people tied up the woodcutter and his wife, and walked to the place of the altar in response to the will of You Wuxin in a loud voice.

"Pedantic!"

Luo Yu witnessed this scene with her own eyes, and couldn't help but clench her fists tightly, and a cold air burst out of her body.

But she is not from this world, and she can't stop it from happening.

At the foot of the Devil Peak, there is a mysterious ancient circular altar, which is made of white stones and the soil of Baiyu Village. Standing on the periphery of this eerie peak. At the top of a staircase made of large stones, there are two black round iron pillars made of pure iron, the top of which is expanded, burning with beacon fire and thick smoke.

Two people were tied to the pillar with iron chains, and they were woodcutters and their husbands. The two of them insulted the sacred witch god in the hearts of the villagers, and they wanted to kill these two bold people with the most cruel criminal law to show their respect and respect for the witch god!

At this time, the wind and rain were strong, and on the flat ground below the altar, hundreds of villagers of Baiyu Village were respectfully kneeling.

You Wuxin held Xiao Luo Yu in one hand, waved the staff in the other, chanted words in his mouth, danced with his hands, and bowed step by step along the stone steps, carrying out an ancient and mysterious sacrificial ritual.

The woodcutter struggled hard with the iron chain tied to his body, felt the scorching flames above his head, looked angrily at You Wuxin who came up, and scolded loudly: "You Wusin, you helped that murderous monster to harm so many villagers, you can't die well!"

A gloomy light flashed in You Wusin's eyes, and he stopped close to the woodcutter and said softly: "If I don't do that, our village will cease to exist a long time ago, I think, everyone will thank me." However, you two have insulted our witch god, and I will not let you go in order to serve the public. ”

"Speaking of which, it's not for the benefit of your You family!"

The woodcutter laughed playfully, glanced at the old woman tied to another pillar, and said gently, "Old woman, are you afraid?"

"Old man, I'm not afraid to die with you!"

The old woman shook her head and took a deep look at the child in You Wusin's hand, but tears fell down her eyes, and she said reluctantly: "It's just that I pity our child, she is still so young." ”

"Humph!"

You Wuxin snorted coldly, missed the front of the two, walked to the middle of the altar, and said lightly: "That's what she deserves!"

In the middle of the altar, there was a recessed circular pit, and You Wuxin put the staff on the ground, held Xiao Luo Yu with both hands, and gently placed it in the pit.

Immediately, You Wuxin quickly stood up, grabbed the staff, bowed his legs outward, recited the words in his mouth, and ran around the altar in a bouncing motion. After about a quarter of an hour, he stopped panting, glanced at the woodcutter and his wife, and without saying anything, walked straight down the altar.

The ritual is over, and according to tradition, everyone must avoid it, including You Innocence, who is the Grand Wizard.

On the altar, people went to the empty building.

Xiao Luo Yu was lying in the pit, his swaddling clothes were all wet by the rain, and the tearing cry picked up the hearts of the woodcutter and his wife, and the two of them were distressed, but they couldn't break free from the chains on their bodies.

"Yu'er-God, please open your eyes and save Yu'er!"

The two cried out heartbreakingly, and the heartache at that moment, they could only lick it alone.

The beacon fire was burning, and the temperature on the pillar was gradually rising. The sound of scorched flesh and skin was heard, and the scorching heat was devouring their lives, and the two of them gritted their teeth, opened their eyes, and raised their eyebrows, and endured it to death, without snorting until they died.

Luo Yu stood beside the two of them, as if crying. Even if she tried all her strength to save them, she couldn't reach them, she couldn't touch them, and the indescribable pain made her almost break down.

I don't know how long later, the heads of the two slid down heavily, the beacon fire was still burning, and the bodies of the two were still burning on the iron pillar.

Luo Yu stood here for a long time......

The cry of Xiao Luo Yu in the pit hurt Luo Yu's heart on the altar, and it was tightly blocked.

The dark clouds suppressed the rain and rained, and the peach blossoms on the faces of the people spilled tears.

"Dad, mother!"

She couldn't help but hold her head with her hands, unable to accept everything in front of her, her parents were tied to an iron pillar by everyone in Whitefish Village, and burned alive!

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

There was a violent fighting sound from the sky, and two women in long clothes fell all the way down from the sky......

Luo Yu suddenly woke up at this time.
