Fairy way
Chapter 69
The city gates are now closed.Xiao Hanfeng and the others looked at each other and smiled, then disappeared.They are all practitioners. Although the city gate is extremely tall, it can't stop them.
The lights in the city are brightly lit at this moment, illuminating the dark night as if it were daytime.I saw people everywhere in the streets and alleys of the city, and they were all kneeling on the ground and reciting something devoutly.Xiao Yao walked up to a seventeen-year-old woman, knelt down and asked, "Little sister, what are you doing?"
The woman turned her head to look at Xiao Yao when she heard the words, her frowning brows relaxed after seeing Xiao Yao's beautiful face and whispered to Xiao Yao: "You must be from other places, no wonder you don't know Ah." The woman looked at the people kneeling in front of her and sighed, "It hasn't rained in our Zhouchang City for two years, and the crops in the field have not been harvested. Now even drinking water is a problem. The people in the city They went north one after another, and some even moved to several other countries." The young woman hurriedly recited a few scriptures when she said this, and she became extremely devout again like that.
Xiao Yao was hearing the key point, but saw that the woman stopped talking, she just wanted to ask again when she heard the woman continue to say: "My Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty is very worried seeing this situation, if the people all move to other countries If so, wouldn’t the great Zhou exist in name only? So the emperor posted the imperial list, saying that whoever can make Zhou Changcheng rain will be made a national teacher. I didn’t expect this notice to come within two days after it was posted. The two said that they could pray for rain, so this scene happened now."
After the woman finished speaking, she stopped paying attention to Xiao Yao and began to concentrate on praying.For a while, there were no other voices, only the voices of people chanting.Xianyu and the others clearly heard what Xiao Yao and the woman said, and they became somewhat interested in the matter of praying for rain. It is said that there are some sects that specialize in Taoism.For example, praying for rain in such a drought, or asking Taoist priests to do it when someone dies.These are not all mysteries, some of them can really go to the heavens to get what they need.These sects are different from Xianyu and the others, they specialize in one skill.People like Xiao Hanfeng who have practiced Taoism for a long time have only heard of it, but have never seen it.But in Xianyu's ears, he directly regarded him as a charlatan.
Xianyu saw many people like this when he was begging with his grandfather in the past. After begging for no rain for half a day, he finally told the people that the Dragon King was not at home today, so he got away with it. He cheated the people of their money every day.After a year or so, think of a way to escape.So, Hyun-woo doesn't like these people very much.He snorted and said, "Those must be charlatans, I can't believe it."
"Young people, don't talk nonsense, this mage is really not a liar. If you harm the people of our whole city with your nonsense, we will not forgive you."
Xianyu was taken aback for a moment, then looked away after hearing the reputation.I saw that the person who spoke was an old man in his sixties and seventies, and at this moment, the old man knelt on the ground and prayed as devoutly as the rest of the people.Xian Yu knelt down and asked the old man, "Old man, why do you say that man can really ask for rain? Haven't you seen it before?"
The old man nodded and said to Xianyu: "Of course I have seen it before. That day the mage waited for the altar to practice and the world went dark. It was just that there was no rain at that time. The mage said that it depends on whether our hearts are sincere."
Xian Yu smiled wryly in his heart and asked the old man: "Then how can you be sincere? Do you want you to take out the money?" Xian Yu added in his heart: "Sure enough, he is a charlatan."
But the old man shook his head after listening to Xian Yu's words: "No, the mage didn't care what money we wanted, but...he asked us for the hearts of thirteen girls. He said that we only need to offer the hearts of eighteen girls. , can help us avoid drought in Zhouchang City.”
Xianyu's heart tightened when he heard the old man's words, and Xiao Hanfeng and others were also shocked.If a person does not have a heart, he will definitely not be able to live.According to the meaning of the old man's words, doesn't it mean that if you want to avoid the drought, you will kill eighteen young girls?
Xianyu got up suddenly, and turned his head to say something to Xiao Hanfeng and others.I saw that Xiao Hanfeng and the others were all staring at the front at the moment, and Xianyu followed their gazes.I saw that at the end of this street was a square, and there was a high platform above the square.There are eighteen thick pillars on the high platform, and on each pillar is tied a girl,
Seeing this scene, Xiao Yao wanted to rush up, but Xiao Hanfeng grabbed his arm and said to her, "Don't be impulsive, see who this mage is, and it's not too late to do it."
"That's right, we don't know the details of the other party. Besides, if we act rashly, it is very likely that the people in this city will be disturbed." Xian Yu said lightly.Although they are all cultivators, as the saying goes, there are people beyond people, and there is heaven beyond heaven.Unless you become the strongest in the Three Realms and Six Paths, your arrogance will only bring you disaster.
At this time, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.The originally noisy chanting stopped, and even the breathing of everyone could not be heard.Xian Yu's eyes were fixed on the huge high platform, he knew that the master was about to appear.Sure enough, a cloud of black mist suddenly appeared in the middle of the high platform, and slowly a Taoist priest wearing a black Taoist robe appeared on the high platform.Xian Yu and the others walked forward quickly, they didn't want to fight the Taoist priest at this moment, they just wanted to get closer.
As they got closer, Xianyu and the others could see clearly that the Taoist priest's Taoist robe was pitch black.If it weren't for the gray and white Tai Chi patterns on it, Xianyu and others would probably not have recognized it as a Taoist costume. Looking at the Taoist priest again, his long hair was scattered on his shoulders, and there was a scar between his eyebrows. A small black Taiji dot looks very strange.Although he is wearing Taoist robes, Xianyu and the others can conclude that this person is definitely not a righteous person.
The Taoist looked at the crowd under the stands, and then at the eighteen girls in the stands.The oldest of these girls is only fourteen or fifteen years old, and the youngest is only eleven or twelve years old.After seeing those girls, a greedy look flashed in the Taoist priest's eyes.But when his eyes fell on the people in the audience again, the greedy eyes disappeared.
I just heard the Taoist say to the people in the audience: "All the people of Zhouchang City, I have seen your sincerity. You have done a good job. Therefore, I have decided to let Zhouchang rain tonight to protect your entire city. The weather will be good in ten years!!" After hearing the Taoist's words, all the people were overjoyed, although it is only ten years, who knows what will happen after ten years?
Just when everyone was rejoicing, a middle-aged woman suddenly rushed out of the crowd.The middle-aged woman cried and said to the Taoist priest on the stage: "Master, why do you have to take my daughter's heart and liver? Can an adult's heart and liver make it?... Woooooo... use mine, my heart is willing Dedicated to the master."
The Taoist raised his eyebrows at the crying middle-aged woman, and said to everyone: "If that's the case, I'm afraid it won't rain tonight. Well, whatever, if any of you are reluctant to part with your child, I won't Reluctantly. It's just that I can't do anything about the drought in Zhouchang City this week, so I'm gone." Saying that, the Taoist priest turned around and was about to leave.
Seeing this scene, all the people in the audience felt very anxious. Although they also sympathized with the crying middle-aged woman, but the life and death of the people in the city were at stake, and there was nothing they could do.Several young and strong men hurriedly stood up to pull the crying middle-aged woman down, but the middle-aged woman struggled fiercely and refused to leave.A childish voice sounded from the high platform: "Mother, please don't cry, uncles and uncles all said that as long as I am tied to the pillar, it will rain, and nothing will happen after today."
The struggling middle-aged woman trembled slightly when she heard the voice, she looked at an eleven or twelve-year-old figure on the stage with tears in her eyes.The little girl was looking at the middle-aged woman with a smile, she was the daughter of the middle-aged woman.The smile on the little girl's face is so innocent and so cute.The people in the audience felt sad for a while, and the middle-aged woman even yelled and passed out.Those young men glanced at each other, they couldn't bear it for a while, but they still pulled the middle-aged woman down.In their view, it was worth sacrificing eighteen little girls for hundreds of thousands of people.At any time, fairness is only for the majority.Although these common people are also reluctant to part with the eighteen little girls on the stage, they will never give up the good opportunity of rain from the sky because of the eighteen little girls.
Xiao Yao's eyes are full of anger at this moment, she has already figured out that as long as the Taoist priest dares to touch the eighteen girls on the stage, she will rush to kill the Taoist priest.Xiao Hanfeng whispered to several people: "Although we are all practitioners, it is not appropriate to ask more about the affairs of the world. But since we have encountered today's incident, we must not stand by. If there is no other way later, we will Go up and surround that monster. Even if you can't kill it for a while, you have to save the eighteen girls on that stage first."
After listening to Xiao Hanfeng's words, several people nodded in agreement. At this moment, their eyes were full of killing intent.In their view, there is only one fate for this monster, and that is death.However, Xianyu looked at the monster with calm eyes, there was no anger or wave in his eyes.Because in his eyes, the Taoist priest was already a dead man.
Let's talk about the Taoist priest, although he has turned around, but his body never moved from the beginning to the end.Seeing the crying middle-aged woman being dragged down, the Taoist turned around and sighed to the crowd: "For the sake of the people of Zhou Changcheng, I will leave like this." He said Then he looked at the little girls in the stands again, and that greedy gaze appeared in his eyes again.He stepped forward, stroked the little girl who had just talked to his mother, and said to everyone: "These girls are Zhou Changcheng's benefactors, you must always remember them."
After all, the Taoist walked slowly towards the center of the platform.He walked very slowly, as if enjoying the feeling of stepping, he was reluctant to walk too fast.Xianyu and others in the audience also used boiling water to run the true power and Buddha power in their bodies.They knew that the Taoist priest was about to make a move.
The lights in the city are brightly lit at this moment, illuminating the dark night as if it were daytime.I saw people everywhere in the streets and alleys of the city, and they were all kneeling on the ground and reciting something devoutly.Xiao Yao walked up to a seventeen-year-old woman, knelt down and asked, "Little sister, what are you doing?"
