Chapter 82 Witch Worshiping God (25)(1/2)
The light is dim.
The young man sat next to the corpse, and the only look in his mask was very calm.
When he heard about the blind girl's past, his eyes were only complicated for a moment, and then returned to their usual coldness.
He was wearing a beast-shaped mask and was among a row of corpses. He was thin and frail. If anyone else looked at him, they would be frightened. He always felt that the corpses in this room would scare him.
But the mask covered his naturally gentle facial features, leaving only his cold temperament, and his eyes were also very cold, resembling the Yama ghost temple that came here to collect souls.
Fragile yet solemn, extremely contradictory.
Although Zhiqing was behind the wall, he could know the situation inside the house and knew that the young man had not moved or spoken.
He was originally waiting for Yan Xingchen's reaction to this, but when he didn't expect anything, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Actually, when the Qingshan people lit up the ghost-exorcist lamps all night for the first time, she still felt that everyone was doing it for themselves.
It is understandable and understandable to do so.”
"But when she needed a pair of eyes but no one was willing, she finally realized that she had overestimated and underestimated human nature. The inherent evil in life, how could she, an ordinary person, be able to contend with it?"
"But it was already too late by then. As early as when she was about to modify the ghost exorcism lamp, I told her that everyone's life is destined, and if someone really died at the hands of evil spirits, she could not blame others. She could try her best to protect the Qingshan tribe,
She has done her best to protect herself."
Yan Xingchen felt his wrist being pulled and shaken by Qi Wushe's side.
The other party seems to be arriving soon.
He quietly took out the positioning tool and held it in his hand. He looked at Qi Wushe's general position and said, "You said she overestimated and underestimated human nature. The basic evil in life - but the blind girl doesn't
Is she also a human being? Is she, or she at that moment, an evil person? The Qingshan people are human beings, the blind girl is also a human being, and people like Sang Yi Yao Su are still human beings."
"They are all different people, so how can they be the fundamental evil in life?"
The branches were green and choked.
He was silent for a while and then said: "You are so young, you must not understand. Our tribe is called the origin of gods, and everyone is a heavenly master who can exorcise ghosts and ward off evil spirits. I have been to many places and helped many people with their problems."
I have seen many ghosts and ghosts, and the people of the Qingshan tribe are no exception."
Yan Xingchen said nothing.
From north to south of the Yangtze River, snow falls and summer flowers bloom. Remote mountain villages, quiet grasslands...
Why hasn't he seen it?
"Is she a good person? She used to be. Before she suppressed me here, I was not so pessimistic, but as you can see, I just passed by and helped this uncivilized tribe. What happened in the end?
The bones have to be sealed in a cool wall, and the soul has not been able to pass away to this day."
He spoke sincerely, and even gritted his teeth when he finished speaking.
Yan Xingchen was not moved at all. He was thinking about the progress of Qi Wushe and the others, and the priestess who might come to check the body at any time. He lowered his voice again, making his voice sound different from his own, cold.
He said coldly: "Everyone in this world has their own sorrows. I am not a Bodhisattva. I don't have time to care about everyone's regrets in life. Put away those overwhelming emotions of yours."
"I came to the priest's hall to help my friend remove the body of a man who was killed by the priest today and bury him properly. I had packed the body a long time ago. I was about to leave, but you shouted to stop it.
If you waste my time again..."
He has not taken off his mask until now. At this moment, he deliberately said that he had changed the bodies to conceal his identity.
He would not believe any of the things in this priest's temple that were neither human nor ghosts.
Zhiqing didn't know that he was actually the "person killed by the priest" and said angrily: "You young man! What I'm telling you is the biggest secret of the Qingshan tribe!"
"Um."
Zhiqing: "..."
He seemed to be afraid that Yan Xingchen would run away, so he immediately said: "After she said she needed a pair of eyes, she waited at home for three days..."
The secret method of regaining sight is not a right way. It requires a pair of intact bright eyes to be exchanged with the blind girl's eyes. In fact, it is just an evil way. It's just that Zhiqing and the blind girl want to use this evil way on what they think is the right way.
That's all.
But the Qingshan people don’t think so.
After that day, the Qingshan clan members who returned began to whisper - How could the clan leader be such an evil heretic?
Even if there are not evil heretics, there are so many people in the tribe, there will always be one person who will stand up, not just yourself.
Everyone thinks so.
The blind girl waited for three days, but no one came who volunteered to donate her eyes. What she did wait for was that the witch's lamp stayed on all night for three whole nights.
On the fourth day, when Zhiqing came to see her, he said to her: "The hair on your temples has turned white."
prematurely senile.
The blind girl said nothing.
She used to always smile.
Even when it rains heavily among the Qingshan people, she will hold an umbrella and swim in the rapids, holding a blind crutch in one hand and shouting at the people to go home as soon as possible.
Even when she discovered that a fierce ghost king had been born next to the Qingshan tribe, she just wiped the sweat from her forehead and said to Zhiqing with a smile: "Teacher, please stay here for a while, I want to learn more.
With so many exorcisms, I want to completely save those ghosts who died in vain, and I want to get rid of all the evil spirits that devour the living."
But this time, she looked slightly cold and said nothing.
Zhiqing waited outside the house for a long time before she said, "Teacher, maybe I was wrong."
He didn't know what to say for a moment.
This is not the way to go.
The witch's lantern will one day burn out the blind girl's life, and the Qingshan tribe will one day be unable to stop the evil spirits wandering in the mountains. Zhi Qing cannot stay here forever.
He would not risk his life for such Qingshan tribesmen.
The blind girl summoned the tribesmen again.
She regretted it.
She said she wanted to take back the witch's lamp.
She will then look for other non-injurious ways to protect everyone as much as possible before getting rid of the Ghost King.
The situation didn't seem that bad. Some people still believed in the clan leader's decision and returned the witch's lamp to her. But some people hid the witch's lamp, saying that the witch's lamp could not be found, or simply took one.
Return the fake witch's lamp.
They thought their lies were well concealed, but every night when the witch lamp was lit, the blind girl knew that there were still unknown witches using the blood of the Qingshan tribesmen she was guarding as a guide and consuming her life and ability.
The lights came on.
Blind Girl and Zhi Qing were unable to protect everyone, so some of the tribesmen who handed over the witch's lamp died at the hands of the evil spirits because they did not have overnight protection.
On the contrary, those who secretly hid the Witch Lampman spent every night peacefully.
Those who died were all the Qingshan tribesmen who were extremely cooperative at the beginning.
After a while, some people began to feel unhappy.
The clan leader promised to protect them, but they turned in the witch's lamp, but they were not as good as those who secretly hid it. Why?
It's better to secretly use the witch's lamp like everyone else.
One night, the place where the miko's lamps were stored was stolen, and hundreds of miko's lamps disappeared.
The blind girl wanted to stop these people and make the Qingshan tribesmen who were guarding the warehouse pay more attention. However, the people guarding the warehouse also had family members, friends, and people who needed witch lamps. They were on guard and always tried their best to steal those witch lamps.
The blind girl could feel that more and more people were using the witch's lamp again.
She walked on the street, and the sound of the blind cane drifted past the door of every door, shouting: "Don't light the witch lamp, there are no evil ghosts here, the evil ghosts are in another place..."
But she couldn't see it after all, and she didn't know whose house had lit the lights, whose lights were burning her life.
When Yan Xingchen heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "You won't help her?"
Zhi Qing was very honest: "I was just passing by. She called me teacher, just to thank me for teaching her how to exorcise ghosts. I have no connection with the entire Qingshan tribe, and I am not someone who has pity like her."
Clan leader, why do you care about these things? In fact, I already regretted it at that time, and the current situation of the Qingshan Clan could not be changed, so I was already preparing to leave."
Less than half a year after the witch's lanterns were distributed, the evil spirits were not eliminated, but the blind girl's life was about to come to an end.
When Zhiqing was about to say goodbye, the blind girl already had white hair. She still had the body of a young man, but she exuded the aura of old age.
When she heard Zhiqing was about to leave, she closed her eyes, turned to him, and said in a hoarse voice, "Teacher, are you leaving?"
"Yes. I will leave in a few days when the weather gets hotter."
"Why don't you stay and help me? You are obviously capable of helping me, why?"
This sentence shocked Zhiqing.
When did the blind girl start to say the words that the greedy Qingshan people have been saying all these days?
When did she start blaming capable people for not helping?
He didn't answer the question, turned around and left quickly, returned to his room and started packing his things.
He felt that this Qingshan tribe could no longer stay, not even for a day.
To be continued...
