Chapter 30: The Bluff of Blood
On the mountain trail, I saw a young man in a gray robe, carrying a long sword, with clear eyebrows, holding a gourd and catching the dew on the side of the road.
"The charm painted with dewy cinnabar is even more powerful!" the young man said to himself.
He is Li Tianle, who walked out of the deep mountains and old forests, and has been out for two days.
He didn't rush back, he figured it out, it was impossible for Uncle Nine to protect him for the rest of his life. He also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to look around.
"I heard that something strange happened in Yaquan Village, the spring water was dyed red, and all the people who drank it fell ill!"
At this moment, two men carrying hoes out to farm passed by him, and the words of discussion reached his ears word for word.
"Excuse me, how to get to Yaquan Village!" Li Tianle thought for a while and stepped forward to ask.
"This little brother, something strange happened in Yaquan Village, I advise you not to go!"
One man said, as if recalling something, his body shook in fright, and the other man agreed with him and told him not to go, there is a great terror in Yaquan Village.
"I'm a Taoist priest, and when I encounter this kind of thing, I must go and see it to prevent ghosts from harming the people!" Li Tianle said with a righteous face.
"It turned out to be a Taoist leader, rude!" The two men were upright, and the people who hunted ghosts and slaying demons and cultivated were very popular in this world!
"Along this road, there will be a one-day fork in the road for ten miles all the way, and the road chief can go to the right!"
"Thank you!"
Li Tianle hit the road again.
The tax turns red, and everyone who drinks it is sick?
He couldn't guess for a while, he had never encountered such a thing, so he could only go and see.
Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the sea to eat the sea.
Yaquan Village, because it drinks Yaquan water, so the village is named, Yaquan Village.
A mountain cliff, a drop of water drip out of the cliff crack, gathered together, forming a day of small river, at this time the small river is blood-colored, no longer crystal clear river water, as if blood, bright red and bloody.
When I arrived at Yaquan Village, it was already night. He dipped some red river water in his mouth and tasted it, and immediately spit it out.
Suddenly, his face changed greatly, it was really blood, and it contained yin qi. The villagers should have drunk the river water and were devoured by the yin qi inside, causing them to get sick.
He went up the river to see the source.
"Village chief, what now. Half of the village fell ill. The water is not drinkable, and now people are panicking. ”
The village chief's house and the authority of the village all gathered here to discuss how to deal with it.
"Yaquan has never had such a thing since ancient times, how can it be good now!"
"If it is artificial, it is impossible to go uncleaned for several days!"
There was a lot of talking.
"Why don't you ask a feng shui gentleman to take a look?" someone thought of the feng shui question and couldn't help but suggest.
"I haven't heard of a feng shui gentleman in a few nearby villages, and if there is no water, how can they hold on for a few days?. Far away, it is impossible to find Mr. Feng Shui in four or five days. ”
"And there is no big action in our village, so it is reasonable to not be able to destroy feng shui. ”
"The spring water is inexplicably dyed red, it's not a feng shui problem, it's a mountain god who is playing ghosts. Someone said unconvinced.
"The water is all dripping from the cliffs, and it is really possible that the mountain god is angry. ”
Some agree with him.
The person who spoke just now almost died of anger, he was angry and just talked, but when he thought about the water, it was all dripping down, and the mountain god really couldn't think of anything that could enter the mountain and destroy the water source.
"Mountain gods?"
The hall fell silent, agreeing.
"If it's a mountain god, what is good?" someone asked.
The next moment it was quiet again, and they couldn't think of any way to get the mountain god to turn the spring back.
"Sacrifice!" someone proposed.
"Why don't you have any money to sacrifice during the Chinese New Year, ordinary sacrifices will definitely not work!" someone shook his head.
Yaquan is the only source of water in Yaquan Village, and pigs and sheep are slaughtered and sacrificed every year to thank the mountain god for water.
"It's better to learn from the ancient times to sacrifice goddesses. Someone said.
"No way!"
Most people disagree, it is too superstitious, the cliff does not drip water, dripping blood like the same thing, and they have to believe it.
"It's not okay to sacrifice to the goddess, whoever uses it, who wants to use your family. ”
"Didn't the old Liu family leave an only daughter!" The person who spoke did not say any more, and the meaning could not be clearer.
Lao Liu's family, the family was destitute, and only an unmarried woman was left after dying early.
The hall was quiet, and the silence was terrible.
"The village chief speaks, and then decides that the whole village is dead. She saved the whole village, and it was glorious to die!" someone was ruthless, and in order to survive, he pushed out the last trace of blood of the old Liu family.
"It's really cliff spring water!"
Li Tianle came to the source of the water, and his face showed a look of disbelief. Pieces of cliffs, dripping down drops, converge into a river, he had seen such a scenery there, and he had never heard of such a scenery there in his previous life.
Like a big mirror, the mirror plane is not dripping, have you ever seen it?
Unfortunately, it was not water that dripped at this time, but blood water.
"What are you going to do? Let go of me. As soon as the breakthrough arrived, the sound of panic came.
Li Tianle hurriedly hid behind a big rock, not knowing what would happen, and stretched out his head to watch secretly.
I saw a group of people carrying torches and escorting a young and beautifully dressed woman to approach.
"In the middle of the night, escorting a woman here, could it be that the blood spring is artificial?" Li Tianle frowned.
"Let go of me, let go of me. ”
The woman begged fiercely for help, begging. Those people didn't seem to hear and were unmoved. Quickly tied her to a pile of firewood, this is to burn her, Li Tianle's face changed.
"Liu Xiguliang can only be sorry for you for the whole village!" the villagers surrounded the firewood, and the head of Yaquan Village, led by Yaquan Village, said with an apologetic face.
Liu Xi's face was full of anger, and he stared at everyone present with resentment. Today she was inexplicably caught here, tied to the pyre, she only knew what happened, they were going to burn her to death, sacrifice to the mountain god.
The people who lived together in the same village, and no one said a word for her at the moment. She hated them and longed for them to die.
"You will not die well. ”
Everyone present was stared at by her scalp numb, and they didn't dare to look at it, so they couldn't help but take a step back.
"Miss Liu, the water source in the village is seriously polluted. The mountain god is angry, and for the sake of the lives of the whole village, we are also helpless. The village chief said, looking like he was doing it for everyone's good.
"Ridiculous, I remember you have a daughter too. Why me, not her?"
Liu Xi sneered again and again, the people present were selfish, everyone had daughters, but she had to burn her, a child who had no father, no mother, no brother and no backer.
"Mountain gods?"
Li Tianle finally figured out what was going on, and his eyes glanced at the foot of the mountain below, a small temple one meter high, in which a clay statue was enshrined.
He had inspected the ones that had only been built in modern times, and they had not yet produced a divine return, nor had they been possessed by some mountain spirits and ghosts.
After cultivating, he realized that the immortal Buddha he was doing was ......
