I'm obviously practicing martial arts, how come I have magical powers?

Chapter 61 Suicune
"This is Lord Qin Yang Qin."

"Master Qin, this is the village chief of Jiangxin Village, Zhao Jiang."

Meng Feng introduced each other to both parties.

"I've met Mr. Qin!"

The old village chief didn't know what kind of official Qin Yang was, but seeing Meng Feng's attitude, he hurriedly saluted.

"You're welcome, village chief."

"Do you still keep that fishing boat in Zhaojiang?"

Qin Yang got straight to the point.

"Meng Captou told us before that we didn't dare to move it, so we kept it by the river."

Zhao Jiang said softly.

"Okay, let's go over and take a look."

Qin Yang nodded softly.

Zhao Jiang led Qin Yang and others towards the small boat.

Crackling~~~
When we got close to the river, a dense sound of firecrackers came from far away.

It was also accompanied by some weird shouts.

Qin Yang looked over.

I saw a smoky place by the river.

You can vaguely see many people kneeling on the ground by the river.

A figure was dancing and making some strange noises.

Firecrackers kept burning, and the ground was densely covered with scented candles.

This scene.

Weird and mysterious. It seems to have some mysterious color.

It made Qin Yang feel like he had traveled back to the primitive wilderness tribe.

Qin Yang squinted his eyes: "Village chief, what are you doing?"

"People in the nearby villages all thought that Suicune's anger was the reason why people kept disappearing in Beijiang. As soon as everyone gathered together, they invited a goddess to come and perform a ritual to eliminate Suicune's anger."

Zhao Jiang looked at the smoke-filled place and hesitated to speak.

But after saying this, there was no more sound.

"Gods, gods and ghosts."

Qin Yang didn't want to pay attention to this.

The theory of ghosts and gods is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, especially fishermen who make a living by fishing, and they are even more superstitious than ordinary people.

Just as they were preparing to leave.

"don't want!!!"

"Don't sacrifice my child to Suicune!"

Sudden.

A sallow-looking woman rushed out and kowtowed to the goddess.

"Mr. Xu, it was Zhao Hai who angered Shui Lord first!"

"Only by sending your child to serve Suicune can you eliminate Suicune's anger."

"If you dare to stop me again, I will sacrifice you to Suicune!"

The goddess with blue mysterious patterns painted on her face stretched out her finger and threatened loudly.

"Correct!"

"Stop making trouble!"

"Send the child to Suicune so that we can fish in peace!"

Some villagers said matter-of-factly.

The woman pointed at the villagers and yelled, "Then why don't you send your children to Suicune?!"

"Don't you just think that my orphaned and widowed mother is easy to bully?!"

The villagers became angry and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? It's because your husband made Suicune angry first!"

"That's right! If your family hadn't committed evil, how could so many people be missing?"

"Tie her up!" the goddess screamed.

When several tall villagers heard this, they started to take action savagely.

The woman was thin and thin. How could these villagers do it? Even if she struggled desperately, it was useless. Her hands and feet were tied up, her mouth was covered, and then she was treated like garbage and thrown aside.

The goddess nodded with satisfaction and started dancing again, holding a large handful of incense in both hands, and kept dancing the ancient and primitive dance of praying to the gods.

Many villagers knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Only the woman looked at it all with despair and powerlessness.

"Village chief. It seems that it is more than just a ritual."

Qin Yang stopped and narrowed his eyes.

Meng Feng also frowned.

He had heard of some foolish and superstitious things, but had never seen them with his own eyes.

Unexpectedly, he happened to bump into him this time.

"Sir, when the goddess came, she said that it was Zhao Hai who angered Sui Lord. Zhao Hai's son must be sacrificed to Sui Lord."

"Everyone in the village believes her. Even an old man like me can't stop them."

Zhao Jiang said helplessly.

"If you can't stop it, why don't you just go with the flow?" Qin Yang seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Zhao Jiang forced a smile: "Sir, we have been like this for hundreds of years." "Is that right?" Qin Yang asked seriously.

"Of course it's right."

"As long as the child is sacrificed to Suicune, no one on the river will be missing."

The village chief nodded.

"I'm very surprised. If there really is Suicune"

"His anger hurt so many of you. Instead of blaming him, you blamed a victim."

"Now you have to sacrifice even other people's children to Suicune."

"You guys only bully the weak and fear the strong, so you won't resist?"

Qin Yang asked.

Treason!
Zhao Jiang wanted to point at Qin Yang's nose and say these four words.

That's a god. How can he allow you, a mortal, to criticize you?
But considering the size difference between the two sides, he still endured this sigh.

Even Meng Feng looked at him sideways.

He just felt that human sacrifice was too cruel.

But this gentleman from the Tianxun Division actually dares to question ghosts and gods?
At this moment.

A child was brought over.

The child was blindfolded and did not know what was going on.

But he seemed to hear his mother's voice and looked around.

"Kids, don't be afraid."

"Just move forward slowly."

"Your mother is waiting for you in front."

The goddess smiled softly.

The child was ignorant, and when he heard this, he kept walking forward.

And in front is a mighty river.

The thin woman struggled wildly, trying to make a sound, but she could only watch as her child was bewitched and headed towards the river.

For her, this was undoubtedly the most horrific punishment in the world.

"Village chief, please watch carefully."

"Let's see who is right."

Qin Yang smiled slightly.

He walked towards the goddess.

Qin Yang's appearance alarmed the villagers and the goddess.

He has a strong build and fair skin, and feels as oppressive as the deep sea.

"Outlander."

"Don't come any closer!"

The goddess pointed at Qin Yang and screamed.

"Now I'm sacrificing to Suicune!"

"If the ritual fails and Suicune becomes angry, you will die without a burial place!"

Qin Yang smiled and said, "I just want to see if Shui Lord really exists."

"Of course Suicune is real!"

"You are blaspheming Suicune by saying this!"

Goddess accused.

"Yeah."

"I still want to try."

Qin Yang smiled.

"How do you want to try?"

"If you come any closer, Suicune will really want you."

puff!

A blade of light slashed out like a wind blade.

The goddess was speechless.

She lowered her head.

He saw a drop of blood falling from his neck onto the soil.

Under the horrified eyes of all the villagers.

The goddess's head slowly slid down from her body.

puff~
The head and body fell to the ground at the same time.

Blood spurted out from the broken part of his neck.

All the villagers were so frightened that they felt chills running down their spines and did not dare to make any move.

Qin Yang walked over, picked up the child, and then used the Ling Yue knife to cut off the rope on the woman's body.

"child!"

The woman hugged her child tightly and knelt down in front of Qin Yang.

"You don't have to kneel down."

Qin Yang said calmly.
