Pseudo master, she just wants to live

Chapter 13 Cave Temple

Ah Wu was so startled that he fell on his back, rolled and jumped up from the ground, pulled his father's arm, and his tongue was tied up, "Daddy, daddy... the wine putty, he, he, he is dead..."

Unexpectedly, the patriarch's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth after a long while and said, "I said why our village has suffered in the first place. It turned out to be a good thing caused by Li Dong, a short-lived ghost who hurt people!"

Fang Yao was surprised and asked why.

Pointing to a broken wine jar at the foot of the bed, the patriarch said bitterly: "I specially asked someone to bring this wine back from the county last year to worship the cave gods. It was just to pray for the safety of our Li family village, but it turned out to be taken by this person." The stupid Li Dong stole it and drank it!"

Ah Wu's expression changed, he bent down and carefully picked up the carved pear-waisted wine jar that had been broken in two, and turned to the bottom to see that there were indeed three small characters "Sacrifice to the Cave God" pasted on it.

Fang Yao was slightly disappointed, thinking that the patriarch had really found out the truth, and it turned out to be related to some god or immortal.

Although she is now holding the magical mask and booklet, for some reason, she always feels that the word "immortal" is too mysterious, and if there are so-called immortals who would die because a jar of wine was stolen, she really cannot accept it.

But as a "master", she could only complain silently in her heart.

She collected herself and took a step forward, "Now is not the time to discuss these things."

"Father, that's right, we have to get rid of the plague demon now." A Wu threw away the wine jar, and under Fang Yao's command, easily opened Li Dong's bed made of simple thin wood boards with the shovel in his hand.

Originally, the patriarch was angry because Li Dong stole the wine, as if someone had pinched his throat, the curses in his mouth stopped abruptly.

Without the cover, Li Dong's whole body is completely exposed. Just like in the painting, his body is bowed, his legs are curled up, and his arms are wrapped around his stomach, as if he is hugging something.

There were sores and pus on the face, and all the skin was black and purple.

The most frightening thing was that pair of cloudy eyes, covered with stubbles of white shadows, as if they were looking at the three of them strangely.

Fang Yao began to rejoice that her stomach was empty. She resisted the desire to vomit, stared at Li Dong's bowed body, and slowly approached from the side: "Be careful, the plague demon is in his stomach."

Ah Wu held up the shovel and obeyed Fang Yao's command, stretched towards Li Dong's abdomen, and forcefully pushed away the already stiff arm of the other party.

"what……"

The patriarch's feet softened, and he almost sat on the ground. The thing Li Dong hugged tightly was exactly the same plague monster that Gouwa's family killed!

What's even more frightening is that at this moment, Epidemic Yao and Li Dong... almost merged into one!
A Wu also took half a step back in fright, but quickly got up his courage and used the shovel to tease the plague monster.

Half of the epidemic demon was in Li Dong's stomach, and he jumped out with his mouth open. Fang Yao suddenly stepped forward, the mask on his face glowing faintly. on the ground.

Before Fang Yao stepped forward, Ah Wu suddenly raised the shovel and shoveled hard at the thing.

The Plague Demon screamed in an instant, and Ah Wu felt ruthless in his heart. He raised the shovel and shoveled it dozens of times. After a while, the Plague Demon spattered blood on the spot and was silent.

Fang Yao opened her mouth slightly: "That... it's dead."

Only then did Ah Wu stop his movements suddenly, and took a few steps back, panting heavily, the face towel on his face was slightly moistened by the heat.

Fang Yao stared at the plague monster on the ground that had been shoveled so that it couldn't see its original appearance, and couldn't help swallowing the non-existent saliva.

The man in the mountain is indeed tougher than her, and he is ruthless when he strikes.

When she dealt with the plague demon, she would end up with a fatal blow, but Ah Wu's method was like chopping meat...

Suddenly, Fang Yao remembered that the plague monster did not die directly by her hands, and panicked a little.

Fortunately, in the next moment, she saw a small ball of light appearing and flying into her mask.

A few seconds later, the mask shone golden again.

Fang Yao decided in her heart. It seems that as long as she is on the spot and the plague demon is eliminated, her mask can also collect small light balls.

The patriarch was also stunned by the golden light, and hurriedly said: "This time, thanks to Master, Ah Wu was able to kill this plague monster hiding here."

"Where."

Fang Yao, who hadn't had time to make a move, was a little embarrassed, and quickly praised A Wu politely, and she was the first to leave the hut, and the patriarch and A Wu also came out in a hurry.

Just like the previous few times, countless mice ran out of the thatched nest and swished to other places.

The patriarch looked at this scene in shock, and after a while murmured: "Hey, although this wine putty is bad, it is still a member of the family, A Wu, bring the thin straw mat at home, let's go to the south of the village to find a The ground buried him."

"no!"

Fang Yao blurted out, "Li Dong cannot be buried, the body must be burned."

Ah Wu and his father looked at each other, and the latter said hesitantly: "Why? If you don't go to the ground, I'm afraid he won't be safe if he leaves."

"If you bury him in the village, everyone will soon be uneasy." Fang Yao said seriously, "If this kind of plague is buried in the soil, it will spread faster."

The patriarch's complexion changed, and he really didn't mention anything about "burying in the ground for peace".

Fang Yao looked at the white powder on the ground in the thatched cottage again, and asked, "Is this quicklime? Does your village have this thing?"

The patriarch and Ah Wu followed Fang Yao's gaze, and the former said: "Master, are you talking about the lime? There are many in the cave temple in the north of our village. I will call the villagers to dig the lime together now!"

"no!"

Fang Yao once again sternly stopped the patriarch, and noticed that the latter's expression was a little stiff, her eyes flashed, and she said with a smile, "You don't need many people to go together for lime digging. The most urgent thing now is to have a clear division of labor. Everyone listens to you, the patriarch, so now you have more important things to do."

Her last sentence successfully dispelled the patriarch's Yu Zu, who was repeatedly refuted by her, the expression on his face softened, and his tone became more enthusiastic: "Since you have said so, Master, then I will listen to your arrangements."

Fang Yao's face under the mask smiled slightly, "It's like this..."

As a result, Lijia Village quickly issued a foot ban and cleaning order.

Except for those who are selected, other people are not allowed to go out at will, and stay at home for general cleaning. All the dirt in the corners of the house will be cleaned out, and it is best to throw away all the things that have been bitten by mice.

At the same time, every half an hour in the village, the patriarch will bring people to inspect, and gather the dirt that has been cleaned up to a new pit dug in the south of the village for burning and burial.

On the other side, after disposing of Li Dong's body, Ah Wu took the selected people to get lime in the cave temple, and Fang Yao also carried a small cloth bag to follow.

The cave temple is at the foot of a small mountain pass in the north of the village. When Fang Yao visited Lijia Village for the first time, he took a look at the temple from afar.

Now that she came in personally, she found that it was extremely dry inside, and the walls and floors were all white. It really was the quicklime she knew.

She was overjoyed, lime has always had a good sterilization and disinfection effect, she did not expect this poor Lijia Village to have such a good thing.

In order to inspect the epidemic situation in the village, Fang Yao did not take off her mask, and passed several villagers' residences along the way, but did not find any black mist.

Worried that other plague monsters might be like the one that Gouwaniang met, she walked to the altar of the cave temple alone while others were pretending to be digging limestone and not paying attention to her, and quickly took out the booklet to check.

However, when she saw the pictures in the brochure clearly, her hands trembled and she almost cried out.

Fang Yao raised her head slowly, and right in front of the altar, the beautiful statue of the cave god squinted a pair of disillusioned eyes, staring at her coldly.
