The scholar's brows furrowed.

He knew that these were villagers at the foot of the mountain, but these villagers were still at the foot of the mountain and had not yet entered the mountain. In other words, the villagers had just walked out of the village. There were several miles of mountain roads from here, and there were many weeds and trees on the mountain.

Although the temple is halfway up the mountain, it is still on the mountain after all. Why can he hear the footsteps of the villagers down the mountain through so many trees and weeds? Oh no, the scholar found that he could actually see the villagers down the mountain.

, and you can see it very clearly, this is really strange.

Although he was very confused about this, the scholar did not think too much about this issue. What he wanted now was to quickly hand over the child to the villagers at the foot of the mountain, and then find a doctor to look at the child. There must be no delay.

disease.

The scholar picked up the child and ran down the mountain quickly. He didn't realize that the originally rugged mountain road was as smooth as walking on flat ground under his feet, without being affected at all.

This mountain is not high in the first place, but the mountain road is too difficult to walk, and it is winding and winding. There are only several miles of mountain road. It only takes less than half an hour for ordinary people to climb to the top of the mountain.

In the village at the foot of the mountain, the villagers all rely on the mountain to eat. They go up the mountain to hunt and collect firewood, which are all livelihoods to support their families. Therefore, it is very easy for the villagers at the foot of the mountain to go up the mountain. But at this moment, they saw an outsider passing by.

The scholar was able to hold the child and run swiftly through the mountains, which really shocked them all.

"Boss, what is going on? He is a scholar, how could he be like this?"

"Yes, boss. He is a scholar. He fell down many times when he went up the mountain yesterday. How could he become so agile in just one night?"

"Boss, is he possessed by a monster?"

"There are unclean things in that temple. Usually when we pass by the temple, we always feel that the temple is eerie and scary."

"That's right. The scholar stayed in the temple all night. He must be possessed by a monster."

The boss the villagers call is actually the village chief.

The village chief looks very young, only in his forties.

After hearing everyone's questions, the village chief pondered for a moment, but did not say anything about the matter. Instead, he said sternly to everyone: "Whether that scholar really has a problem or not, it has nothing to do with us.

, Our purpose is to save A Liang, as long as the scholar does not make things difficult for us, there is no need for us to provoke him."

The crowd didn't say anything anymore. They gathered together just to save A Liang. If the scholar really didn't embarrass them, there was no need to become an enemy of the scholar.

Because the scholar's appearance at the moment was very abnormal, so abnormal that it made people feel creepy. In addition, the scholar seemed to be flying through the mountains. In the impression of the villagers, only the monsters in the mountains could do this.

He did it, so the scholar felt really terrible at this moment.

Not long after, the scholar came to the villagers. Seeing that everyone in the villagers were very nervous, the scholar thought it was ridiculous. He chuckled and handed the child named A Liang to the one closest to him.

that person.

"Hurry up and find a doctor in the village to take a look at him. He just passed out on the mountain. I don't know what his condition is now."

The villager who took A Liang was trembling all over. Just now he was really worried that the scholar would suddenly open his bloody mouth and eat him directly. The monsters in the mountains are cannibals.

.

At this time, the village chief did not care who the scholar was, or whether the scholar was really possessed by a monster. At this moment, he came in front of the scholar, bowed deeply, and thanked him repeatedly. The scholar did not care.

You are not welcome, but he smiled heartily and said to everyone: "There is food in your village. I haven't eaten all night and I am very hungry now."

The scholar's words made everyone present feel overwhelmed.

Everyone raised their heads and stared at the scholar blankly. The scholar felt very uncomfortable being looked at by these people. At this time, the scholar smiled sadly and bitterly.

"What are you talking about? I'll help you take the child down. If it weren't for me, this child in your village would probably be dead by now. But it's better for you. I'm just asking you for some food, so you just

Just treat me like an enemy, that's all, I won't beg for this food."

He couldn't explain why, but the scholar just felt depressed and angry at this time. He even had the urge to rush up and eat all the villagers. This shocked the scholar himself. He didn't know what he was doing.

What's wrong, why do you have the urge to eat people? Fortunately, this urge is not particularly strong. After it emerged, the scholar immediately suppressed it in his heart.

After saying these words, the scholar turned around and walked quickly towards the mountain.

Although he didn't know what kind of changes had happened to his body, the scholar concluded that there must be something wrong with his body. Otherwise, how could he have had the idea of ​​cannibalism just now?

"It must be that temple. The problem all lies in that temple. I want to go back again to find out clearly."

But at this time, a fire suddenly broke out on the mountain. The direction of the fire was exactly where the Xishan Empress Temple was. When the scholar ran over, he found that the fire had completely destroyed the Xishan Empress Temple.

Even the stone statue has disappeared.

This fire is really strange. It only burned the area where the Xishan Niangniang Temple is located, leaving other areas intact.

The scholar became even more depressed. That was a stone statue. It was not made of wood or mud. How could it be burned by a fire?

Weird, weird.

It is strange to say that at this moment the scholar felt unprecedentedly relaxed.

It was as if something that had been suppressed in his heart suddenly disappeared.

Although the temple was gone and the stone statues were gone, the scholar still worshiped at the original site of the Xishan Empress Temple and said: "I don't know why there was such a fire suddenly, but don't worry, wait for me

After high school, I will definitely come here to rebuild a temple for you."

After taking a deep breath, the scholar slowly turned around. He did not go down the mountain road, but walked up the mountain.
