Chapter 22 The Secret of the Temple(1/2)
Author: Mebian
Along the way, there were numerous bones and corpses strewn everywhere, both animal and human, all of which were extremely miserable.
The men had their heads lowered, as if they were paper-skinned, not even breathing.
After arriving at the village, the priest took the two people to their home.
The wife of the priest was a stooped woman. When she saw the two of them, she was as frightened as if she had seen a ghost.
The plate in his hand accidentally dropped, and there was a crisp "snap" sound, breaking the silence.
The priest raised his upper lip, went up and slapped the woman.
The force was so strong that it flattened the woman's head like a rotten watermelon.
Li Bei even felt the blood splattered on the corner of his mouth.
What made people gasp for breath was that the woman did not die, but ran away holding her head and letting out an unexplained whine from her abdomen.
Li Bei looked at the sacrifice.
The priest looked back at Li Bei fiercely, and he took a step towards Li Bei.
Xie Xuanhui stepped forward and stood in front of Li Bei: "There is no need for tea and rice. We are tired from traveling and traveling and want to rest quickly."
The priest was still afraid of Xie Xuanhui, so he rolled his eyes awkwardly and responded in a dull voice.
At night, Li Bei found that the entire village was dead silent.
Not even a bark.
"Xie Xuanhui."
She lay on the bed and looked at him, "We have to talk to the women and children here."
"I think they're the only living things here!"
Xie Xuanhui responded and said, "How far has your mental power reached?"
"Um, two levels? What are you asking me to do?" Li Bei asked.
"Because you think well."
Li Bei smiled. How could they be willing to let a woman get a share of such a "good thing" as killing a god and inheriting the power of a god?
After all, they have oppressed women for so long, isn't it just based on the difference in strength?
Late at night, Li Bei fell asleep. When he opened his eyes, the room was dark.
She subconsciously called Xie Xuanhui.
No one responded.
The door was closed, so she tried to open it and found that a layer of restraint had been placed on the door.
Why did Xie Xuanhui investigate behind his back?
Angry, she took out the dust and easily made a rectangular gap.
She bowed and got out.
But when she arrived in the wild, she realized that the spatial layout of the village was not quite right either.
She used her mental power to explore the road and found that there was a fork in the road ahead.
Left and right, alarm bells blared in her mind.
She intuitively knew that there was a certain way to death.
She tentatively lit a guiding talisman, and the talisman lingered at the two forks in the road for a long time.
In the end, it suddenly fell off.
Li Bei leaned over to check the talisman and suddenly felt a threat coming from behind!
She stood on her back, subconsciously bowed her waist and rolled forward.
The smelly fangs grazed the skin of her neck, and the monster's heavy breathing exploded in her ears.
She threw out the fire talisman with her backhand, and purple-red flames exploded on the monster's face, like a giant blooming flower in the middle of the night.
He took half a step back.
Li Bei frowned and realized that the monster in front of him had a human body and an ox-faced face. It looked like a mountain god, but it was full of evil spirits and had a distorted face.
It has become a monster that eats hair and drinks blood.
It’s a sacrifice!
He has completely transformed into a beast.
The dust shone gently in her hands. She stared intently and was about to rush forward.
The monster seemed to have been hurt. It opened its dark mouth wide, and a dazzling lightning shot out of his throat. Li Bei's horizontal sword blocked it, and the spiritual energy in his dantian instantly exploded into a protective mesh!
Her eyes were even more dazzling under the light of spiritual energy.
"monster!"
Li Bei couldn't help but feel angry when he thought about the tragic death of those mountain gods in his dream.
The light of her sword was like lightning, and she was approaching the monster inch by inch. Hair and blood were flying in the air, and the monster was howling.
But he still didn't want to leave, so he just used the tree and Li Bei to hide and seek.
Li Bei saw the real greed in his eyes, and his chest hair was wet with saliva.
"Do you want to eat me?" Li Bei shouted coldly, narrowing his eyes slightly, "I'm not afraid of breaking your teeth!"
Her aura turned into a vine and stabbed directly into the monster's eyes.
"Pfft" sound.
The vines condensed into spikes and pierced the monster's left eye.
Li Bei gritted his teeth and used his mind power to control the vines to stir in his eyes, even wanting to drill upwards.
The monster was so painful that it spit out large balls of thunder, cut off vines, and spurted blood.
Then the monster whimpered and ran away, and Li Bei chased after him with his sword in hand.
No matter whether this monster is trying to lure you into a trap or not, she still has to have a choice.
Rather than being confused here, it's better to take a gamble.
The forest is very dense, and the leaves are soft across the eyes.
Li Bei could hardly open his eyes. After a moment, his eyes suddenly opened up.
The monster looked back at her, as if to make sure she was following.
Li Bei waved the dust, and the spirit sword glowed with dazzling light.
She saw clearly that in front of her was a temple for sacrifices.
Li Bei was surprised and walked in slowly and cautiously.
I saw that the temple was solemn and luxurious, with patterns of the mountain god's guardian beast Qilin covering the corridor, and two vermilion pillars with verses praising the mountain god's merits.
Is this a temple dedicated to the mountain god?
Just as Li Bei was about to step in, he heard a burst of sobbing from a woman, who was crying so hard that his scalp was numb.
"who?!"
Li Bei stared.
She pushed away the dead grass, and the woman's split head looked like a rotten watermelon, which was very iconic.
The priest's wife?
What is she doing here?
The woman stood up. She was naked, like a rag bag, and looked at Li Bei warily.
Li Bei sighed, pulled out a piece of shark gauze from the storage ring and handed it to the woman.
"Put it on."
After all, they were all women, and Li Bei really couldn't bear to see the same kind of people in such a miserable state.
The woman glanced at Li Bei in disbelief, then slowly stretched out her hand, and saw Li Bei looking at her with encouragement.
She quickly stretched out her hand and pulled him over.
"Don't go, you will die. It is waiting for you inside."
The woman hesitated for a long time and spoke with a sound from her belly.
"Let me ask you, what is going on in this village?"
Li Bei's eyes were cold, why did a beautiful village turn into a place of death.
"They killed gods and were punished by God. We will all die!"
