Chapter Twenty-Eight: Ishii Swallows People

The three of them went out like this, Wang Ming asked Lu Mu where they wanted to go, and the two of them invariably said the stele temple, Wang Ming also understood what it meant and led the two to the direction of the stele temple.

It's been a long time since breakfast, and most of the villagers in Renji Village have gone to their homes, some of them carrying tools and walking leisurely on the street, some have begun to set up their stalls, and some have gathered around to chat.

On the surface, Renji Village should be a very happy place, and the people here should be very comfortable. But Lu Mu can obviously see different things from these people, this thing is closely related to each of them, what exactly this thing is Lu Mu doesn't know, but everyone's body exudes an uncomfortable feeling.

Naturally, each of them had a layer of black mist on their faces, although it was much lighter than Wang Tiande's black mist, but they could still see it clearly, and none of them were spared.

The stele temple is in the east of the village, and the three of them walked for a long time to arrive, and there are naturally many people who come to greet Wang Ming along the way, and most of them are no different from yesterday's, and Wang Ming is also very polite to talk to one by one.

By the time the three of them arrived at the stele temple, there was already a long queue in front of the stele temple, and the people here were just like what they saw on the street, but they didn't look lazy.

There is no essential difference between this stele temple and other temples in the world, the temple gate and the facilities in the temple are almost the same, but most of the other temples are dedicated to specific gods, but there is no statue of a god in the stele temple, and there is only one standing stele in the whole hall.

Next to the stele is a well, according to Wang Ming, the stele standing now is completely based on the stele in the well, both the size and the style are exactly the same as the one in the well, including the calligraphy and painting on it.

Yu Mu stood in front of the stele and felt a trace of fear in his heart, since he had just entered the stele temple, he felt an indescribable depression, Yu Yan should have felt the same way, from the moment he came in, Yu Yan's expression became serious, and his eyes looked around vigilantly.

As Wang Ming said, the words on the stele are not recognized, except for the word Renji in the middle. It is only a few thousand years for the world to create characters from Cangjie, and a lot of changes have taken place in the middle, and the font itself has also changed a lot with the changes of dynasties.

From Wang Ming's introduction, this stele has existed for more than 10,000 years, and there must have been no such thing as writing at that time, not to mention, just from Wang Ming when their ancestors discovered this stele, it would not take much time for the text to be produced.

At that time, the words must have been different from the current ones, and now the word Renji was so literally placed in front of them, and what was even more strange was that the villagers of Renji Village never seemed to be aware of it.

Lu Mu couldn't see the painting on the stone tablet very clearly, and it didn't seem to have anything to do with what they wanted to investigate. The incense burner in front of the stele was full of incense from the villagers, and Wang Ming also brought a stick of incense to light it, and knelt down very sincerely to pray that their village would return to its former state.

Lu Mu looked at the stone tablet carefully and didn't find anything strange, and until now Lu Mu didn't see the black fog he had seen, but the auspicious light still surrounded the sky above Renji Village, just if you looked carefully, you could see that the auspicious light was much weaker than yesterday, and you could clearly see that it was fluctuating up and down.

Lu Mu's brows furrowed, and his heart shook a little, he didn't know why this was the case, but he vaguely realized that something big seemed to be about to happen.

Lu Mu touched the stele with his hand, there was a faint pain in the tips of his fingers, the pain came and went quickly, Lu Mu thought it was an illusion and touched it again, but this time there was only a cold feeling of the stele.

After Wang Ming finished worshipping, he came to the two of them and said excitedly: "Don't look at the layout of this stone tablet temple is very simple, in fact, it is very exquisite, this stone tablet temple is located on the dragon vein of our Renji Village, it is in this way that our village can be smooth in wind and rain." All the stones used to build this temple are the stones of Kunlun Mountain, and I heard that they were transported from a very spiritual place in Kunlun Mountain. The style of this building is also to find the master to calculate, in short, this stone stele temple looks simple, but in fact it is very exquisite, so it is also the most famous place in this radius of dozens of miles, and it is very effective. ”

"How do you know that? Lu Mu couldn't help but ask. Wang Ming said that it was all told by the old people in his village.

The three of them came to the mouth of the well behind the stele and looked down, and it was pitch black below, and they couldn't see anything clearly. The moment he saw this wellhead, Lu Mu's heart beat violently again, this time not once, but dozens of times.

Lu Mu held his chest and wanted to press him down but couldn't do anything, Lu Yan also noticed Lu Mu's situation, so he asked what was wrong, Lu Mu's face was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and his heart was beating to the extreme, Lu Yan hurriedly stepped forward to help him and sat on the base under the stone stele.

The moment Lu Mu sat down, he could clearly feel something fluctuating on the stone tablet, which felt the same as the time he first entered Renji Village. At this time, Lu Mu's heart instantly regained its calm, and her face improved.

Wang Ming didn't notice the change in Lu Mu, and when he saw Lu Mu sit down and thought that he was just tired, he didn't pay attention to it, but just pointed to the mouth of the well and said: "This well is the real body of the stone tablet, this well is not very deep, and the space inside is not very large." ”

Yan Yan asked him how he would know if he had ever gone down. Wang Ming said that he had not gone down, only the most respected people in the village could go down, and it could only be during the New Year's Festival, and after going down, in addition to worshipping, he had to clean it carefully, Wang Ming had not gone down, and Wang Tiande had not gone down, but if nothing else, Wang Tiande could go down when the New Year was celebrated this year.

The people who can go down this well in Renji Village must be people who have made significant contributions to the village, this is the most glorious thing in the village, Wang Ming said excitedly. After Wang Ming finished speaking, Lu Mu said that they were going down, Wang Ming may not have heard clearly, and looked at them very strangely, and Lu Yan said again.

Wang Ming's face showed embarrassment, the reason why he was like this was not because Lu Mu and they wanted to go down, this Wang Ming was also a person with a lot of wisdom, he understood that when Lu Mu said that he wanted to go down, it proved that there must be a problem here.

In fact, he had thought about this many times in his heart, but every time he tried to convince himself that the changes in the village must not have anything to do with this stone tablet temple.

Since childhood, this stele temple is the label of Renji Village, and it is the proudest thing in the hearts of every villager of Renji Village, all of them think that this stele is their protective god, and the reason why they have the appearance of Renji Village today is inseparable from the blessing of the stele temple.

Each of them had such thoughts, and this thought was not imposed on them by outsiders, but from the depths of their hearts, so to speak, the stele temple was no less important in the hearts of each of them than their own lives.

So when Wang Ming heard them say this, he knew that something must have happened. "Do you have to go down?" asked Wang Ming a little timidly. The two of them didn't speak, just nodded very seriously.

Wang Ming didn't say anything anymore, but silently walked to the front of the stone tablet and looked around and said, "Go down, I'll give you the wind here, you can't let them see it, if they see it, they won't let you go down." Wang Ming's voice was very small, and as he spoke, he walked to the left side of the stone tablet again, just blocking the sight of the people over there.

Lu Yan wanted to go in with Lu Mu, but Lu Mu always felt that something would happen, so he asked Yu Yan and others to wait outside and say that if something happened, it would be good to take care of him, and Lu Yan had to agree.

Lu Mu stood at the mouth of the well for a while, took a deep breath and jumped down. As soon as Mu Mu jumped down, suddenly the auspicious light above Renji Village fluctuated quickly a few times, and instantly exploded and disappeared without a trace, and a black mist was born in an instant where the auspicious light disappeared, and this black fog expanded rapidly, and in an instant, it was covered in the sky above the entire Renji Village.

At the same time, the black mist quickly swirled and gathered together, and quickly flew towards the wellhead, all this happened so fast, the whole process was a matter of an instant. Fortunately, Lu Mu is a cultivator after all, and Lu Mu noticed it at the same time as the auspicious light exploded.

He subconsciously used his cultivation to fly up, but at this time, there was a force in the well that was pulling him down, and although he used all his strength, he was still falling down the well quickly.

He saw that Lu Mu had an upward trend but fell quickly, so he instinctively went to pull Lu Mu, and the pole stick was also deeply inserted into the ground by Yan Yan at the same time. It's just that the power coming from Lu Mu is really big, even if Yu Yan pulls the pole stick, he still can't stop Lu Mu from falling into the well.

All this came too fast, and Wang Ming naturally didn't notice it, until Yu Yan's pole rods generated a huge force and knocked down the stone tablet.

The stele fell beside Wang Ming, the sound was so huge, Wang Ming was startled by the sound, turned around in shock, and saw Lu Yan pulling a stick in one hand and Lu Mu in the other, his face was bruised, and half of Lu Mu's body had already entered the well, and it was still slowly falling down at the moment, so he hurriedly stepped forward to pull Lu Yan, and asked what was wrong.

When he saw Wang Ming about to pull him, Wang Ming's hand had reached him, and before he could come to the warning, Wang Ming was rebounded by a huge force, fell two or three meters away, and his body fell heavily to the ground, Wang Ming only felt a pain in his chest, and he spit out a mouthful of blood and almost fainted.

At this time, Yu Yan was pulling the pole stick with all his strength, how strong the force was, fortunately, almost all of his strength was used here for Lu Mu, although Wang Ming was still injured a lot, but fortunately, there was no worry about his life.

It took Wang Ming a long time to come back to his senses, and the people around him were also scared and ran away, hiding, and the entire stele temple instantly fell silent. Wang Ming tried hard to stand up, but found that his whole body hurt terribly, and he really didn't have the courage to try it once, so he lay down and asked what happened.

Lu Yan was pulling this Lu Mu with all his might, he felt that he was about to be torn, but fortunately, Lu Mu had stopped falling, and at this time, Lu Mu was only above his chest when he was exposed.

Yan Yan didn't dare to relax for a minute, and asked, "How is it, what is the situation?" Lu Mu felt Lu Yan's hand keep shaking, and her voice became trembling.

Lu Mu replied: "Now there is a force pulling me down the well, and this force is so strong that I am afraid that I will not be able to hold on." ”

Yu Yan smiled and was about to say something, when the villagers who were still hiding in the stone tablet temple suddenly lay on the ground. As soon as each villager lay down, a black gas came out from the top of his head, which was the same as the one that had just gathered in mid-air, and it was also the same as the black gas that Lu Mu had seen on the faces of the villagers.

This black gas erupted from each villager's body, quickly gathered into a group, although the black gas on each villager's head is not the same, but every villager has it, this black gas gathered into a ball and quickly wanted to bathe them and flew over, and flew from various places outside the temple and gathered into the well.

With the black gas flying, Lu Mu could feel that the power of the well was getting bigger and bigger, and Yu Yan was about to be unable to support it, seeing that this Yu Yan was about to come in, Yu Mu let go of his hand and disappeared at the mouth of the well, and the power of Yu Yan seemed to have come to an end, lying motionless on the ground, and the clumps of black gas were still flying from all over the place and converging into the well.
