Chapter 41 Chapter 41
"Nonsense!" Jingwei's voice sounded from the sky.

I saw a hummingbird descending from the sky, and gradually turned into a girl in Tsing Yi. All the fishermen on the beach knelt down and worshiped: "The Nine Heavens Profound Girl has appeared! The Nine Heavens Profound Girl has come to save our fishing village!"

"I do not……"

Jingwei just wanted to deny it, but saw Nangongyi winking at her desperately, making her admit that she is the Nine Heavens Profound Girl.

"Oh...yes! I am the Nine Heavens Xuannv, I am asking you if you have ever sacrificed a living baby, in the Earth Temple..."

Jingwei really went straight to the point, wanting to know the answer to this question unabashedly.

"The conscience of heaven and earth... how could we be willing to use that newborn baby as a sacrifice..." One of the women holding the baby was kneeling devoutly to Jingwei.

"...Hey...it's a last resort!" The female elder, who looked like the village head, suddenly sighed.

Mingming just swore that they would not sacrifice live babies, but when she saw the whole process of Jingwei's transformation, her expression changed completely, and the expression of panic disappeared in a flash.

Nangong Yi could really see the changes on her face.

This old lady is definitely hiding something!
Nangong Yi stood up, patted the gravel stuck to her body, and said suddenly: "What are you afraid of?"

"Afraid? I, I'm not afraid..."

The village chief refused to admit it stubbornly, but his voice was trembling, which made people suspect that she was actually guilty.

"Nine Heavens Profound Girl, God Dog... This way please, let's go inside and talk..."

The village head brought Jingwei and Bai Ze to the house where he lived, and Nan Gongyi followed closely, almost being shut out by the village head.

The furnishings in the room are deserted, with only one table and a coir raincoat hanging on the wall that looks like it has not been used for a long time.

As soon as the door was closed, the village chief immediately knelt down to Jingwei: "Mysterious Nine Heavens, please forgive the old woman's sins...I did this because I had no choice but to think about the future of the whole village..."

"You old lady, you said just now that you would never do something like sacrifice a living baby, why do you just admit it when you see Jing... ah no, Nine Heavens Profound Girl?"

Bai Ze, who had turned into a white dog, suddenly spoke, which really scared the village head.

"The god dog spares my life, the god dog spares my life, the old woman really did this as a last resort!"

"Old man, get up and talk slowly. Since it is a last resort, then talk about it, why is it a last resort?"

Nangongyi pulled the village head up, pushed her on the chair, and introduced herself apologetically: "Well, my name is Nangongyi... I think the matter of your fishing village is a bit strange, so I acted Please forgive me for making such an appearance... That person is actually Jingwei, not some Nine Heavens Xuannv, this divine dog is actually Bai Ze..."

The village chief didn't believe what he heard at all, and patted his forehead vigorously: "This is really getting old, and dreams are starting to be so real? Does patting yourself still hurt?"

"You're not dreaming... No, forget it, just treat it as if you were dreaming." Nangong Yi felt that there was no need to explain so clearly, it would be better for the village chief to pretend that he was dreaming.

"Old lady, let me ask you, why do you say you have to sacrifice a baby?" Jingwei asked.

"There are sea beasts haunting the sea, and babies are sacrificed just to protect the fishermen's safety when they go out to sea..."

"Nonsense! Where did the sea beast come from!" Jingwei sternly retorted.

"Village chief, that's not a sea beast, it's just a normal natural phenomenon, the tide..." Nangong Yi patiently explained to the village chief.

"No, no, it's a sea beast! Swallow ships, return them, and swallow people!" The village head trembled, as if she had experienced it herself.
