God Bestows Evil

Chapter 316 The Road to the Underground

early morning.

Du E yawned and pushed open the door.

There were no familiar statues or tables in the open space in the center of the village. This was to be expected. The worship of gods in the mornings of the previous two days was just a reward for surviving the pale ghost.

A slightly fishy fragrance flowed into Du E's nose, making her stomach rumble.

Several family members who had gotten up early had already begun to cook wild vegetable broth. Du E had long been tired of eating this stuff, but in Wu Burial Village this was the only reliable food to satisfy her hunger. She couldn't survive without eating it.

What surprised her was.

Old Tang and several other elderly people did not hide in the room as usual, but sat happily outside the house, watching everyone busy while enjoying the fresh morning air.

It seems like the attitude of these old people.

The behavior of the family members in the past few days has changed. They no longer regard them as dirty people who need to be tabooed, but as a group of reliable juniors who may change the status quo.

Du E glanced behind her and saw that Wu Xian was still sleeping like a dead pig, so she walked to her coffin alone and lay on it as if quietly talking to the things in the coffin.

…

"The night has passed."

"Everyone should have new ideas about that big pit."

Wu Xian started a combat meeting while drinking broth: "We'd better resolve the matter before noon, so let's discuss it while eating."

Du E stared at Wu Xian's strange hairstyle and couldn't move her eyes away.

Wu Xian's slightly curly hair was originally quite handsome, but after arriving at the Blessed Land, it had not been taken care of for several days, and it already looked like a chicken coop.

Jian Lingyu rolled her eyes angrily: "You are the last one among us to get up, so you have the nerve to say not to waste time."

Wu Xian smiled: "I got up late because I thought about it for a long time last night."

Wen Chao ended the useless topic.

They were helpless about the big hole last night, but after thinking about it for a night, everyone more or less had new ideas.

"We don't know how deep the pit is or what's inside, and our handling capacity is limited, so it's impossible to open the pit in one morning using normal methods."

"My suggestion is to burn it with fire and use the wind ability to replenish oxygen, so that the fire can quickly burn everything inside, including the monsters inside!"

Su Xuan also made suggestions: "As for how to get down... I suggest using Li Juxian's fishing rod. The fishing line of that fishing rod is very long, and it can reduce the weight of the bundled objects. You can use the fishing rod to easily pull everyone and the coffin urn. Send it down."

Wen Chao and Su Xuan combined their suggestions.

It is already very complete, and all the problems everyone encountered last night have been solved.

Jian Lingyu originally wanted to say that she could prepare medicine to repel insects, but now it seems that it is no longer necessary.

Other people's suggestions are similar.

If nothing else, this is what everyone will do this morning.

But Wu Xian shook his head.

"That's what I thought at first, but before I was about to fall asleep, I suddenly felt that it was inappropriate to do this."

Wen Chao curiously asked: "Why is it inappropriate?"

Wu Xian drank the last mouthful of broth, put down the pottery bowl and explained to everyone.

"Today at noon, people from the Immortal City will come from underground and carry away the coffins and urns below with drums and gongs."

"I don't know why they did this, but obviously their actions have an internal logic. Just like they carried the coffin to the Burialless Village, it is part of some kind of ritual..."

"Since it is a ceremony, everything must be normal before it can proceed."

"You said, if this group of people came and saw everything burned, and in the burned place, there were some obviously unreasonable coffins and urns... would they still carry the coffins away? Or even, they would Will they open the coffin and fight with those who destroyed the ceremony?" As soon as Wu Xian finished speaking, everyone's expressions suddenly changed. This was indeed a question.

Wei Hengbo couldn't help but question Wu Xian.

"You mean, we have to go down to the ground with coffins and urns, but we can't destroy anything and we have to keep it as if nothing happened?"

"How is this possible?"

Wu Xian smiled.

"No, it's entirely possible!"

"Do you still remember what happened when we killed the water ghost in the well?"

Jian Lingyu suddenly had an idea: "I poisoned the well at that time, and the things in the pit reacted. What do you mean..."

Wu Xian smiled and nodded: "That's it. Since your poison can poison the things in the big pit, it means that this well is connected to the big pit. We can go down directly from this well without moving. There is nothing in the pit to reach the ground!"

Du E clapped her hands and gave a thumbs up to Wu Xian: "And there is a lot of water in the well. You won't be hurt if you jump directly. You won't be broken if you throw coffins and urns down..."

"Yes!" Wu Xian stood up and walked to the well: "Maybe this is the right path."

Last night Wu Xian also thought of the same plan as Wen Chao.

But there was a hurdle in their plan that they couldn't get around. If they wanted to lower the coffin smoothly, they could only rely on Li Juxian's fishing rod.

Although there are many dangers in the blessed land, there are few difficulties that can be overcome by relying on the specific ability to worship gods.

Are they going to be trapped and die here if they don't get Jiang Taigong's fishing rod?

That's why Wu Xian began to think about other ways.

If Aunt Miao had not chosen the wrong way to bury her, maybe Aunt Miao would have told her what she saw underground. Unfortunately, if she missed it, she would have missed it.

Everyone discussed some details.

Just make the plan.

In order to ensure that the plan does not go wrong, someone needs to go down to explore the bottom first, and then everyone can go into the water after ensuring safety.

The candidate to explore the bottom was quickly decided.

Jiang Chun cannot swim, Wei Hengbo is too heavy, and Li Juxian must act as a human lift on top...

therefore.

In the end, it was decided to let Wu Xian, Su Xuan and Wei Qinglan go down first to find out.

Others were waiting ashore.

Wei Hengbo was unwilling to let his sister take risks in every possible way. After being taught a lesson by Wei Qinglan, he reluctantly agreed. Then he kept staring at Wu and Su with a look like "I will fight you if anything happens to my sister." They were speechless for a while.

After everyone had eaten and drank, the old man and the old lady also finished their meals.

Before going down the well to explore the bottom, there is one more thing that must be done.

Jiang Chun carried the remaining broth to the cemetery where Mr. Li was buried yesterday, and placed the broth in front of the grave. This was what Wu Xian had promised Mr. Li yesterday, and of course he had to honor it.

Wait until Jiang Chun leaves.

The hot smell of the broth began to spiral up. As the heat dissipated, the broth in the pot quickly cooled down. If anyone stirred and stirred inside, they would find that the pieces of meat in the pot were already as loose as sawdust...

After a while.

Next to the tomb, a voice of satisfaction came out of thin air...
