Is this the truth about how Lingdong Village was massacred that night?
After the old man finished speaking, Qin Shaoyou's face moved slightly, his eyes were filled with light, and he was obviously thinking about something rapidly.
The others also looked at each other, with deep meanings in their eyes.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"Father...mother...the child is unfilial and cannot avenge you..."
What was unexpected was that as soon as the old man finished speaking, the dog boy beside him covered his eyes and started crying.
He sobbed softly at first, and then just burst into tears.
Although he and his grandfather moved away from here in recent years and went to live in another mountain village more than thirty miles away, at this time every year, he would follow the old man to travel across mountains and rivers and come back here to pay homage to his parents.
Of course, Gouwa once asked his grandfather why he didn't move his parents' graves, but his grandfather finally told him that it was because almost everyone in the village was burned to pieces that night.
That is to say, his grandfather was familiar with these villagers, so he pieced together these people and moved them to the entrance of the village to bury them in peace.
But in fact, only a small part of the remains can be found, and most of them have no bones left and have been integrated with the land here.
This...how can the grave be moved?
"Several adults, Gouwa, I beg you, can you kill that Taoist priest and avenge my parents!"
Gou Wa suddenly seemed to have thought of something, a flash of blood flashed in his eyes, and then he suddenly knelt down towards Qin Shaoyou and others, prostrated on the ground, and kowtowed with a bang.
"Gouwa, I beg you, adults, to avenge my parents!"
The old man was so frightened that his face changed drastically.
"Gouwazi, what are you doing?!"
"Get up quickly!"
"Children are ignorant, so you must not listen to him! The valley has long been filled with ghosts. I don't know how many heavenly masters have gone to see it. As long as they enter the valley, not one of them has come back!"
The old man looked panicked and wanted to pull the dog boy up, but the latter got angry and refused to raise his head even after saying anything. Moreover, he repeatedly murmured the words "please" in his mouth.
Hearing these words, Qin Shaoyou was secretly shocked.
So, is the old Taoist still in the valley?
What good thing is there in the valley that allowed this man to guard it for so long?
Tree god?
Or....
Is it his soul?!
Thinking of this, Qin Shaoyou suddenly opened his eyes as if enlightened.
The old man just now said that there is a peach tree in the valley that can run and jump. As we all know, peach trees can not only ward off evil spirits, but are also the best place for mortal souls to live. This tree has become the "Tree God" in the hearts of the villagers in Lingdong Village.
The peach tree has a history of more than a hundred years...
Could it be that this peach tree, like the previous Heavenly Blood White Jade Ginseng, mutated because it absorbed his soul?!
"Uncle Hong..."
"Master!"
The moment Qin Shaoyou was enlightened, a flash of light flashed in Lao Hong's eyes. His expression told Qin Shaoyou that they wanted to go together.
Qin Shaoyou paused, and then motioned to Lao Hong to step forward.
The latter nodded slightly and raised his hand slightly, and the dog boy stood up lightly. This was completely involuntary. It was not until he stood up straight that the dog boy reacted belatedly.
"Heavenly Master?!"
"This lord is a heavenly master?!"
Although the old man had previously determined the identities of the people who came, he still couldn't help but feel a sense of fear when he saw Lao Hong using this strange magical power.
His heart is actually very complicated.
He hoped that there was a Celestial Master among the people in front of him. After all, only a Celestial Master could deal with the old Taoist priest who massacred the whole village. But at the same time, he was afraid of actually meeting a Celestial Master.
After all, if the Heavenly Master gets angry and kills their grandfather and grandson over a disagreement, it is just a matter of waving his hand.
It doesn't matter to him, half of his body is already in the soil anyway, but his grandson Gou Wa is still young!
Now Gou Wa is the village's only hope.
Nothing can happen to him!
"It's getting dark. It's not safe here. You should go back first."
Qin Shaoyou glanced at the sky and said calmly.
Under the setting sun, the figures of Qin Shaoyou and others stretched several feet away, pointing like arrows into the depths of the mountain village.
The night wind picked up, and there was the sound of leaves slapping in the forest. It was indeed a bit chilly.
"Young one, I will leave now..."
The old man carefully bowed his hands to several people, and then, without saying a word, he pulled the dog and walked out of the village. His legs and feet were many times more agile than when he came here.
"Master, do you want to go in now? Or do you want to wait until dark?"
After Feiyan watched the grandfather and grandson leave, she couldn't wait any longer.
She just learned a new star technique a few days ago. She has been thinking about it every day for the past two days. The more she thinks about it, the more itchy her heart is. Now, she is a little impatient and wants to try the "Fire Bull" trick again.
The power of "thorn".
"Fire Niu Jin" was originally a physical technique. To be precise, it is a Taoist technique that uses the fist to blast out the spiritual power of the whole body through specific acupuncture points.
Now, Qin Shaoyou has made some changes to it, turning it into a star technique that is inspired by star power and released by star weapons.
For the sake of distinction, Qin Shaoyou named this move "Fire Ox Stab".
Although the name is very ordinary, Qin Shaoyou is very satisfied.
Feiyan was gearing up, looking eager to try.
"The old Taoist priest inside was able to kill Lingdong Village, where hundreds of people live, with one move fourteen years ago. His strength should be more than two stars..."
"What's more, the two people just said that there is a tree god in the valley. To be on the safe side, we still need to think of a foolproof plan first..."
Qin Shaoyou looked into the depths of the mountain village, then turned back and said to everyone.
"A foolproof solution?"
Wei Feng and Feiyan looked at each other, looking at each other.
Lao Hong looked surprised.
Qin Shaoyou's caution was indeed beyond his capabilities. His heart moved slightly, and after rolling his eyes, he quickly returned to his original state.
"Then... according to the young master, what should we do?"
Lao Hong nodded and asked.
"I have read about some special astrology in some ancient books. Maybe I can use it later..."
Under the astonished eyes of everyone, Qin Shaoyou transformed some of the Taoist mental techniques that he still remembered into the form of star magic and told the three of them...,
It was not until this moment that Feiyan turned around belatedly and found out that the "Fire Ox Stab" she had used before was actually obtained from Qin Shaoyou!
