"Hey, the smell is gone!"
"This seems to be the smell of incense. The Laoye Temple should be right in front of you."
As Xu Ziheng and others walked toward the top of the mountain, they found that the disgusting stench became lighter, and even the smell of incense wafted from the top of the mountain.
When they thought that they were about to arrive at the legendary Laoye Temple, everyone immediately swept away the gloom in their hearts and accelerated their pace towards the top of the mountain.
Yan Luo behind him just sneered when he saw this scene.
Are you so anxious to die?
When they reached the top of the mountain, Xu Ziheng and others were stunned by the scene in front of them.
Less than a hundred meters away from them, stood a magnificent temple with red bricks, green tiles, columns and high beams. The temple was full of incense and bustling with people.
The temple was probably as big as a football field, but it still couldn't accommodate the large number of believers. Countless men and women knelt from inside the temple to outside the temple. There were so many people that they couldn't squeeze in, so they could only walk through the temple. From a distance outside, I saw a huge, strange-shaped cauldron placed in the temple, as well as a gilded statue of a god with a solemn appearance and kind eyes behind the cauldron.
"The incense is so prosperous?"
Xu Ziheng and others were stunned.
It seems that the rumors are indeed true. This Laoye Temple must be very efficacious, so it can attract so many believers to come and worship.
I'm afraid people from several surrounding villages came to kneel down together, right?
Thousands of people gathered together, nodding their heads and lowering their eyebrows, muttering something to each other. Their pious demeanor made Xu Ziheng and others feel inspired, and they felt deep respect in their hearts.
"Damn, that guy named Yan almost ruined our good deeds. If we had believed his lies, how could we have seen such a grand scene?" Xu Ziheng snorted coldly.
"He is indeed a murderer. He tried every means to prevent us from going up the mountain. He was afraid that we would report him. If I guess correctly, if we really believed his lies, he would kill us one by one." Zhou Guan agreed.
Upon hearing this, everyone felt that Zhou Guan's analysis was very reasonable.
By coincidence, Yan Luo and Zhang Yuanyuan also reached the top of the mountain.
"Bitch, you really don't have good intentions, but it's a pity that you can't deceive me who is extremely smart. What else do you have to say now?" Xu Ziheng joked, as if he was proud of himself for exposing Yan Luo's lies.
Everyone was also looking at Yan Luo, with hatred hidden in their eyes.
At this time, in their eyes, Yan Luo was a scumbag who tried to murder them but failed.
Yan Luo raised the corners of his mouth and said with a hint of ridicule: "Come closer!"
"What?"
"Come closer, open your dog eyes and take a good look at what they are enshrining!" Yan Luo raised his voice and shouted angrily.
Xu Ziheng and others looked at Yan Luo strangely, and then took a few steps closer to the temple.
But the next scene made them all scream.
His whole body was shaking crazily and uncontrollably.
On the incense table in the temple, there are various tributes densely placed on it, and those tributes are different from the normal chickens, ducks, geese, fruits, etc., they are actually a bunch of human organs!
Heart, flesh and blood, stumps, and even a fetus that had just given birth.
There is no doubt that these people are worshiping God!
But how can worshiping gods involve offering human flesh and blood?
Which god would accept such a tribute?
In addition, they also discovered that what was even more terrifying was that one of the hearts was still filled with hot white gas, which had obviously been dug out just now.
Oh my God, you don’t hesitate to kill people just to worship God?
These people are all crazy!
"Brother Xiao Yan, what...what is this?" Zhang Yuanyuan's voice was still crying, and she tightly grabbed Yan Luo's arm, refusing to let go no matter what.
"Blessings from the Heart, a ritual to worship the Yin God." Yan Luo said calmly, and then looked at Zhou Guan and others who were already dumbfounded: "Now you know why I don't let you go up the mountain, right?"
"It's a pity. The good-tongued man persuaded the damn ghosts. Once you get here, you can't run away."
Can't run away?
These three simple words were so deafening in everyone's ears.
Did they make a mistake? Is this guy actually the good guy?
But they ignored Yan Luo's kind words and foolishly came here to seek death?
Some people broke down and cried on the spot.
When the pilgrims heard the cry, they slowly turned their heads stiffly and stared at them with inhuman eyes.
With numb expressions and empty eyes, he felt like a group of emotionless puppets.
Of course, not everyone is like this, there are still some people with lively expressions, as if they were not deeply poisoned.
"Old immortal, you have the nerve to surrender this piece of crap? Who are you looking down on?"
Suddenly, a harsh curse came from the temple, and a male Taoist priest with a sinister face glared at an old couple aggressively.
"If my master hadn't protected you all these years, would you have had enough food and clothing and good weather? I only asked you to make offerings three times a month. It's simply lawless! You are committing a blasphemous death penalty. When my master comes back, you will definitely be punished. I’ll beat the living hell out of you both.”
When the old couple heard this, they collapsed on the spot, and begged tremblingly: "Master Immortal, please forgive me, please forgive me! I really spent all my money on my family, and I saved a lot of money by living frugally." They are all offered to the master, there really is nothing valuable left in the house..."
"You still want to eat and drink? Instead of giving all your belongings as an offering? It seems that you don't have enough faith and your heart is not sincere." Taoist priest Ruizi sneered.
The old couple were immediately dumbfounded.
"Then we should..."
"You should not eat or drink, put the gods first, even risk your life for the sake of life, and have the lofty belief of dedicating yourself to the gods at any time. Only in this way will the gods protect you." Taoist priest Zhizi snorted coldly.
"Then won't we starve to death?" the old man trembled.
"What are you afraid of? As long as you can let the gods feel your faith, even if you die, the gods will make you come back to life." The Taoist priest continued to confuse you.
The old man lowered his head, looking thoughtful.
At this time, the Taoist priest changed the subject and said with a sinister smile: "Old man Sun, your granddaughter seems to have reached the age of getting married, right? Why don't you ask her to come up the mountain tomorrow to be my wife for the Taoist master? Your family doesn’t need to pay tribute.”
Old Man Sun looked at the ugly skinny monkey with a scowled face in front of him, and became anxious on the spot: "The immortal master is joking, my little granddaughter is born stupid, how can He Dehe be the immortal master's wife, and she is only ten years old this year." Five, he’s still a child.”
"Hey, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. You're not too young at fifteen. You should know everything. Besides, if she doesn't know Taoism, you can still teach her." The Taoist priest said with a lewd smile: "This woman, she gave birth. Children will naturally mature.”
"this..."
Old man Sun broke into a cold sweat and was in a dilemma.
But at this time, his old woman suddenly grabbed his hand and cried emotionally: "No, absolutely not! You have given away your son and daughter-in-law, and now you won't even let go of your granddaughter? I I won’t agree even if I risk my life!”
boom!
The Taoist Taoist priest whipped the old woman away with a whisk. It looked light but was actually extremely powerful, and he whipped the old woman away.
The back of his head hit the cauldron, blood spurted out on the spot, and he died on the spot.
"Old woman!" Old Man Sun howled miserably.
The Taoist priest said with a ferocious smile: "Then the Taoist master will help you take this old life of yours!"
