Chapter 94
For what Zhou Changfang said, Lu Chen is still unable to decide whether it is true or not, so he just plans to go to Yunyang Village to see it first.
As for how to deal with it, it depends on the specific situation.
If the Taoist mastered the talisman, performed his priestly duties, and took good care of one side, Lu Chen would not be too easy to intervene. After all, his position as a god is not too righteous, and it mainly depends on his follow-up actions.
Of course, if it is really a demon, using the name of a god to bring disaster to the village.
Lu Chen would not stand by and watch.
"Your Majesty, Yunyang Village is in front of you."
Zhou Changfang led the way with a respectful face.
At this time, he had already known Lu Chen's identity through conversation, and was surprised and delighted when he learned that it was the Lord of the Taihang Mansion who was in person.
The Lord of the Taihang Mansion, that is the Lord of the Thousand Miles Taihang, a dignified land god, his status is much higher than that of his previous boss, the City God.
It was really audacious for me to dare to rob the old man's incense before.
Fortunately, Fujun was kind and merciful, and he didn't kill him immediately, and gave him a chance. If Fujun took action, then the evil way of stealing the talisman would not be a concern.
"That's right. How is that Taoist's cultivation and what methods do he have? Do you know the origin of his teacher?"
During the flight, Lu Chen asked.
If Zhou Changfang's words were true, he might take action at that time. Out of caution, Lu Chen would of course need to know more about the situation.
"That monster Taoist claims to be Qingfeng, he is a disciple of the Sun God Palace, his cultivation level is not strong, but his combat power is terrifying, he has cultivated a body of pure Yang blood, can ward off ghosts and gods, the old man is no match for him..."
Sun God Palace?
It's the Sun God Palace again!
Hearing this, Lu Chen frowned.
Because of what happened to Qingyangzi before, he now has a very bad impression of this sect.
Since it is a religious sect formed by enshrining gods, how can the disciples taught have such poor conduct?
Or, this Sun God Palace is simply an evil heretic?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking in a deep voice: "How much do you know about the Sun God Palace?"
Zhou Changfang's figure was like smoke, floating aside, after hearing the question, he was a little surprised: "Have you never heard of the Sun God Palace?"
"I have been cultivating in the mountains for many years, and I have rarely set foot in the human world, so I don't know much about human cultivation sects."
Lu Chen remained calm.
That Zhou Changfang didn't think too much about it, and then explained: "The Sun God Palace has a long history. It is said that it was founded by believers who believed in the True Sun King. It gradually evolved and is now the largest practice sect in Taiyuan Prefecture. Yang Feng has many disciples under his command, most of them are walking in the world, practicing on their own, slaying monsters and eliminating demons, they can be regarded as decent. The little old man treated him with courtesy because he came from the Sun God Palace. By his way..."
The information that Zhou Changfang knew was also very limited.
At present, Lu Chen only knows that this Sun God Palace is very strong, it is the largest practice sect in Taiyuan Prefecture, and it is a well-known and upright sect.
However, there are too many disciples under the sect, resulting in mixed good and bad. This is why there are people like Qingyangzi who practice and kill evil methods, and Taoist Qingfeng who kill gods and seize the throne.
Although this does not mean that all the disciples of the Sun God Palace have such bad conduct.
But at least as far as Lu Chen's current senses are concerned, it's really hard to have a good impression of this sect.
While the two were talking, they soon came to a mountain village.
This Yunyang Village is said to be a village, but it is actually more like a big stockade, with scattered houses, there should be hundreds of families, it can be regarded as a big village in the surrounding area.
It stands to reason that it can be regarded as a popular place.
But Lu Chenyuan waited and watched, and what he saw was a sign of decay. Many houses collapsed and no one lived in them.
"How is this going?"
In doubt.
Suddenly, he saw the direction of the entrance of the village, and there was a figure running out quickly. When he looked closely, the man was about 30 years old, dressed as a hunter commonly seen in the mountains, and carried a basket on his back. He was furry, but Lu Chen heard the sound of breathing coming from inside, and immediately his eyes focused, and he saw a five or six-year-old girl curled up in the basket, motionless, as if she was asleep. of.
"Human traffickers?"
Seeing this, Lu Chen's first reaction was that there was something wrong.
If it was a local villager, how could he hide the child in the back basket, and then look at the man's hurried steps, his whereabouts were sneaky, and he looked behind while walking, as if he was afraid of being discovered.
This made Lu Chen feel even more that this guy might be a child trafficker, so he frowned immediately.
With a wave of his hand, as the sleeves rolled, a strong wind howled.
As soon as the Orion walked out of the village, he was blocked by the strong wind, blinded by the dust, staggered and fell to the ground, the basket turned over, and the girl inside rolled out, probably because of the pain from the fall, and cried loudly after waking up .
"Don't cry! Don't cry! If you startle them, we won't be able to leave..."
The man was so flustered that he reached out to cover the child's mouth.
But unfortunately it's too late.
The cry of the child quickly alarmed the people in the village. After a while, all the old and young in the village rushed out with hoes and sticks, and stopped the man.
When Lu Chen saw this, he felt a little puzzled. These villagers reacted too quickly. They gathered here almost as soon as they heard the sound. These people seemed to have been prepared for a long time.
This matter may not be as simple as it appears on the surface.
So he restrained his divine light, and then winked at Zhou Changfang, who immediately understood, also restrained his breath, and turned into an ordinary old man, and the two immediately approached the entrance of the village.
Soon, I heard the angry voice of the villagers inside:
"Second brother, how can you be so selfish? Ah Qing is a tribute personally ordered by the Landlord. You took her away, what will the whole village do?"
Hearing this, the man quickly hugged the crying girl, and said with red eyes: "You are easy to say, but Ah Qing is my daughter, her mother left early, and there is only such a single seedling left. You want me to send the child as a sacrifice to that monster, you might as well kill me! Eldest brother, third younger brother, Ah Qing is also your niece..."
"Second boy, shut up, you blaspheme the Lord of the Land, do you want our whole village to be buried with you?"
"Sacrificing a pair of boys and girls every six months, this time it's time to talk about your family. If it can't be delivered on time, all of us in the village will die! Second child, don't be silly, is your daughter a daughter, our sons and daughters Aren't they children?"
As everyone said, they pressed forward one after another, trying to snatch the girl from the man's arms.
The man tried his best to resist the struggle, but he was outnumbered in the end. His arm was broken and he was pressed to the ground. He could only watch helplessly as his daughter was taken away. Seeing her father injured, the girl cried even harder. Her voice was heartbreaking. Can't help but be moved.
"Land? Sacrifice boys and girls?"
When Lu Chen heard this, his face suddenly became gloomy.
Turning his head and glanced at Zhou Changfang next to him, the latter turned pale with fright, and quickly waved his hands: "Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with me. I dare not go back here after the talisman was taken away. The land they talk about should be It is Taoist Qingfeng who stole my talisman!"
"What a demon, I thought that after he robbed the god's throne, he would at least assume the priesthood and govern the place. I didn't expect that he would take advantage of the priesthood to force the villagers to sacrifice blood in such a fishy place. This is the act of an evil god!"
Lu Chen's eyes flickered with coldness.
The blood sacrifice of living beings is a form of fanatical belief worship, which often brings a lot of incense and vows to the gods. Therefore, in ancient times, sacrifices to gods often prepared three animal wine rituals.
But the method of blood sacrifice is too cruel and vicious, and it is not tolerated by orthodoxy.
Often only those evil gods can do it.
That Qingfeng Taoist stole the talisman first, and now he is trying to use this evil method to quickly increase his divine power. What he did is no different from a demon.
"If it wasn't for me to stop him, maybe he could really escape with his daughter."
Lu Chen looked at the struggling and crying man on the ground, and couldn't help but shook his head. Since he had encountered such a thing, there was absolutely no reason for him to stand idly by.
So he raised his hand.
The divine power surged, and the villagers only felt their shoulders sink, as if they had been immobilized, and it was difficult to move their bodies.
He could only watch as Lu Chen approached, with his sleeves rolled up, the captured girl flew up automatically, and then landed firmly beside the man.
"father……"
"Ah Qing, it's alright, it's alright, dad is here, I won't let you be in trouble..."
"Father, Ah Qing is not afraid..."
"Good boy, if they want to arrest you again, father will protect you even if he tries his best..."
The father and daughter said, holding each other and crying.
"Don't worry, none of you will die today."
Lu Chen said lightly.
The man just came back to his senses, seeing Lu Chen's bright clothes and extraordinary demeanor, he knew that he had met a nobleman, so he quickly brought his daughter up to kowtow, begging him to save his daughter no matter what.
"Get up. I probably already know the ins and outs of this matter. Take this little girl to rest first, and don't worry about other things."
As Lu Chen said, he winked at Zhou Changfang, who immediately understood and stepped forward, taking the father and daughter to the shade of the tree at the entrance of the village to rest and appease.
At this moment.
The faces of the other villagers showed sullen expressions, but they were caught by Lu Chen's aura, and they didn't dare to mess around casually, they just surrounded him vaguely.
"Young master, I know that you have good intentions. But the situation in our Yunyang Village is special. This little girl is the one whom the Lord of the Land has called for. If she fails to perform the sacrifice as scheduled before tomorrow night, the gods will be furious and will definitely come down. Disaster. You can't kill our whole village just to save her!"
Among the crowd, an old man stood up at this time and said tremblingly.
The tone is quite polite.
Judging from his appearance, he should be an elder in the village, or someone like Lizheng, the village chief.
Hearing this, Lu Chen glanced at him, and said indifferently: "The gods are merciful and benevolent. How could they force the living beings to sacrifice their children's blood? I'm afraid this so-called land of yours is not kind."
"You said this, why don't we know? Originally, our Yunyang land master was kind and benevolent, and had many achievements, but he disappeared a few years ago. Today's land master is actually a person, but he is in charge Land tokens have great magic powers, how dare we ordinary people disobey them? If we worship and sacrifice devoutly, at least most of the people can be saved. If we resist, the whole village may not be spared..."
The old village chief sighed and finished speaking, then cupped his hands and begged, "Young Master, please have mercy on me, don't meddle in this matter anymore."
Hearing this, Lu Chen turned his head and glanced at the other villagers, and saw that their eyes were full of fear. It seems that Taoist Qingfeng used a lot of tricks to make them dare not resist.
In this case, it is useless to say anything.
He simply didn't explain anything, and said, "Since I'm here, it's absolutely impossible for me to watch this child go to die. But I won't let you be angered by the evil god because of this, so why don't you just need to send a sacrifice?" Is it? Simple, I will do it!"
Done.
I saw his sleeves waving, and his body flashed with divine light. Immediately afterwards, his body shrank a lot, and transformed into a pink girl.
