The Li Clan Ancestral Hall is the largest ancestral hall in Wuze.
Its ancestral hall is also known as the Black Temple. Compared to other people's homes that have their own small black rooms dedicated to the Gu God, this place is huge.
The statue in the middle of the ancestral hall looks like a monster. It looks a bit like a human at first glance, but it is actually a real monster.
It looks like a centipede with its upper body standing up, a pair of large pincers, like a knight's spear, and its head looks like a man wearing an iron helmet, ferocious and terrifying.
However, at this time, there were two people standing in front of the ferocious statue in the Li clan's ancestral hall.
One of them was the Li clan leader and Li Xiyu who had been to Zhao Fuyun before.
Li Xiyu once participated in a Gu fight and won the title of 'Snake King', but she was female, so she was called Snake Grandma.
At this time, in the ancestral hall, Grandma Snake and the snake in her sleeve felt a chill. The snake in her sleeve was telling her that she was being watched by the Gu God.
As the elder of the Li clan, she could only guess that the Gu God might be a centipede. Moreover, she also knew that if she wanted to become the clan leader, she would have to offer up the Gu that she had raised for many years and let the Gu God eat it. , and from then on can directly communicate with the 'Gu God'.
She was injured by two people who suddenly broke in in the cave before. She was still recovering from her injuries. When she was called here, she had a bad premonition in her heart.
"Xiyu, you should know something about that teaching." Patriarch Li said.
"It's not like I know him well. I just know that although Zhao Jiaoyu is young, he has a profound Taoist teaching. He deserves to be a high disciple of Xuanmen like Tiandushan." Li Xiyu said.
"I know this. That night, a house of fire burned most of the Gu insects in Wuze, which is enough to prove that his spells are powerful. But what I ask is, as a person, whether he is a man who sticks to his word. People?" Patriarch Li said.
"From my observation, Zhao Jiaoyu easily refuses to make promises. He is not a person willing to make promises to others." Li Xiyu said.
"In other words, if such a person makes a promise, he will definitely fulfill it." Patriarch Li said.
"That's probably it." Li Xiyu sighed.
Patriarch Li was silent for a moment and said: "Today, we said in front of the temple by the river that there was no one to host the Gu sacrifice, and the Gu and ghosts in the city might be in trouble. He said that all he needed to do was burn down the black temple with a fire, and there would be no need to continue. The Gu sacrifice is just a test, and he said such words, which shows that he has already had the idea of burning in his heart, Xiyu, what do you think?"
Li Xiyu's heart was already raised, and she couldn't help but said: "Maybe Zhao Jiaoyu just said a method. He didn't know that it was just the patriarch's test words."
"However, he has revealed his intentions. God Centipede, please don't sit still and wait for death. God Centipede said that the female Taoist came again last night and stared at this place." Li Xiyu said.
"Clan leader, how are you doing?" Li Xiyu asked.
"God Centipede said that he wants to return to the mountains." Chief Li said.
"That's fine," Li Xiyu said.
"It's just that God Centipede said that returning like this is like planting grain and then abandoning it when it's about to be harvested. So I asked Xiyu to offer your aconite snake to the cause of God Centipede." Chief Li was unhurried. Speak slowly.
Li Xiyu turned around and walked away. However, in an instant, the earth shook and a huge monster burst out of the ground.
The gravel and soil are flying, and the evil spirit is turning into the wind.
Without saying a word, Li Xiyu waved her sleeves, and a black snake came out, meandering in the void. Dark light surged, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a big black snake and landed on the ground. Since she wanted to block it with her own snake, The monster also wants to feed the monster with his own snake.
She wanted to leave here, but the door was tightly closed.
The black snake was afraid to move forward in front of the monster. However, the monster rushed forward excitedly, and clamped the snake's body with a pair of huge pliers. The snake spit out a poisonous mist, and the monster's other pliers clamped it again. It raised its head, then opened its sharp mouth and took a bite.
"Master Tiandushan is nearby. What do you want to do? Aren't you afraid of being turned into ashes by fire?"
"Master Tiandu Mountain has already entered the mountain. He is not here at all tonight. Tonight, the Centipede God wants to eat people." Chief Li smiled.
The huge centipede bit the black snake. After a while, the essence of the black snake was swallowed up, leaving only a skin bag and fell to the ground.
Li Xiyu was frightened, but still said: "You can't escape."
As soon as she finished speaking, the centipede god, who was as huge as a knight, raised its upper body and its lower body was like a horse. Its legs were running. In just a blink of an eye, it was in front of Li Xiyu, and the big pincers had already pierced her chest. .
A sharp piece of paper bit her on the head.
"God Centipede, today is a good time. Once you enter the deep mountains, no one will be able to find you."
The huge centipede said nothing, but the Lixi fish had only a layer of skin left and lay limp on the ground.
'God Centipede' did not break out of the door, but burrowed into the ground. The ground opened up like water waves, and its body quickly disappeared into the ground.
…
In the courtyard of Zhao Fuyun Chijun Temple, next to him is Zhu Puyi.
Zhu Puyi's stomach growled with hunger. He went around the kitchen and found that there was nothing edible in it. He decided that after he went back, he must have someone come to open two plots of land outside the temple and plant some food that could be eaten. Eat melons and fruits, lest you live here again one day and be hungry again.
Just when he sat down on the stone under the eaves next to Zhao Fuyun, he suddenly heard a voice in his ears: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
"Lord County Magistrate..."
Zhu Puyi stood up and said, "Did someone call me?"
Zhao Fuyun also opened his eyes and said, "Someone did call you."
"Who would call me at this time?" Zhu Puyi was confused.
"My Lord County Magistrate, Lord County Magistrate, why haven't you come back to the county office? I've been waiting for a long time and prepared food and wine for you. Why haven't you come back yet?"
"Yes, Mi San, he is on duty at his county office today." Zhu Puyi said, "Why is he here? Why doesn't he come in?"
"Your Excellency County Magistrate, Your Excellency County Magistrate, are you in there? Answer me quickly. I have something urgent to report... Your Majesty the County Magistrate..." The voice outside was shouting urgently, getting more and more urgent.
Zhu Puyi also began to show anxiety at this moment.
He walked back and forth, muttering to himself: "Mi San has always been a man of few words and an honest man. To suddenly come here and shout, there must be something urgent. But what urgency could there be? There must be something urgent, or something big."
"Could it be that an official letter has arrived, allowing me to return to my hometown?"
"Could it be this, could it be?..."
After Zhu Puyi had this idea in his mind, he walked outside the temple and strode away, almost running.
At this moment, he forgot all the dangers and weirdness, and only thought about the trivial fantasy. When he came to the temple gate in front, he passed by the statue of Chijun, but it seemed as if he had not seen it.
At this time, his mind was clouded and there was no God in his heart, so how could he receive God's blessing.
