The wizards and alchemists bravely completed the bathing ceremony. Let the people in the water go ashore and put on their clothes.
The people asked the wizard one after another: "Why didn't the waves come this year? Have our disasters been eliminated?"
These wizards didn't know what was going on and were confused, but they still pretended to be serious and said: "Wait a moment, the three saints have already started to ask God's will."
When everyone heard this, they all looked surprised and horrified, not knowing whether this was a disaster or a blessing. The originally festive atmosphere suddenly became gloomy and depressing.
At the same time, at the altar of the Three Saints Sect, the Three Saints had just finished listening to the reports from their subordinates. She had a gloomy look on her face and said nothing.
"Holy girl, what should we tell those people? People are asking."
The three saints thought for a while and said: "Well, tell them, Lord River God did not lose his temper this year, and he did not express his anger even if it was a guilty person. Just take the talisman I invited and let everyone take it back and stick it on the lintel. , disaster will not come to your door."
The subordinate asked: "Excuse me, Saint, when will the talismans be distributed?"
"Distribute them today. Remember to tell them that everyone who comes can receive them. The Nuo dance exorcism ceremony will continue as usual tonight." The three saints said.
When Song Xin learned the news from the crowd, he was also stunned, "This Three Saints is not simple..."
Xiaoyu asked: "What's wrong? Her plan for this year fell through. Why is it not simple?"
"She said that she would give out magic talismans without paying for money. This would win over people's hearts, and those who received the talismans would definitely give a lot of offerings to the Three Saints Sect in the future. The income would also be far greater than selling the magic talismans directly. The free ones are the most expensive. ah."
"The free ones are the most expensive...interesting." Xiaoyu found it interesting when she heard this sentence.
At this time, people in the crowd began to talk about it. There were many people from the Three Saints Sect mixed in the crowd, praising loudly:
"I heard that the three saints personally burned their watches and begged God to give them the talisman."
"Yes, the Three Saints Sect prays for blessings for the people. It's really like gods descending to earth!!"
"You really don't need a penny?" Some people still don't believe it.
"Of course it's true! I heard that the Three Saints spent a lot of energy for this, even vomited blood, and lost their lifespan!"
"The Three Saints are really... I was moved to tears." After saying this, the man actually wiped his tears.
Song Xin looked at it and was secretly surprised by the methods of the three saints. He quietly said to Xiaoyu: "You saw it, Xiaoyu, they also have navy troops."
"Hehe, you told me about your time. People lived in some sort of web, and everything was controlled by the people who weaved the web."
Song Xin smiled and said: "That's called the Internet..."
People were talking a lot, and some people who did not believe in the Three Saints Religion had a change in their attitude towards the Three Saints Religion. Even Uncle Xia, who was next to Song Xin, changed from fear to respect for the Three Saints Sect.
After the bathing ceremony, Song Xin, Xia Ren and other female relatives came back and planned to go to the nearby market to see the excitement. This is also the most lively place during the Shangsi Festival. Looking upstream, you can see the lush vegetation on both sides of the Lishui River. There are curtains of noble families, and there are also the faint voices of singers and laughter. into the ears.
Song Xin's family walked downstream and shopped. It was Liu Ling's first time to participate in such a lively market. She asked Ajaan to ask questions, and stopped in front of each vendor from time to time to inquire about prices.
When they passed a forest, Song Xin's keen ears suddenly caught a strange sound, which turned out to be a woman's exclamation.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, but it’s too far away to be easily noticed.
"Uncle Xia, please wait a moment, something is wrong here!" At this time, a frightened and embarrassed little girl rushed out of the forest. As soon as she saw Song Xin, she immediately came up and grabbed his sleeve to beg. Said: "Master, please do well and save my young lady!"
Song Xin took a look and found that she was Tian Qing'er's personal maid. Song Xin knew something was wrong, so he hurriedly arranged for them, and rushed into the dense forest alone.
After a while, he saw five men grabbing two women, one of whom was pinned to the ground like a prey. The woman's mouth was gagged, her hair was disheveled, and the collar of her dark dress had been torn open. The exposed skin exuded an alluring luster in the afternoon sun, which further stimulated the desires of several men.
The woman was still yelling and kicking at the top of her lungs. A young man pressed directly on her stomach and held down her arms with both hands. The remaining people moved their hands up and down, touching her body recklessly.
"It's Tian Qing'er!" Song Xin took a closer look, and it turned out to be Tian Qing'er. I don’t know why she was captured here.
A young man saw Song Xin approaching and scolded him coldly: "Boy, don't get into trouble."
Another young man also saw Song Xin and shouted with a straight face:
"roll."
The other companions also turned to look over, looking ferocious and fierce.
When Tian Qing'er saw that Song Xin was coming, she seemed to be grasping at straws and desperately called for help: "Mr. Song, please save me, help me!"
"Let her go." Song Xin took a few steps forward and said coldly.
"Hahaha, let her go? Did I hear you correctly?" The men relied on the strength of the crowd and were not afraid at all, and they became even more bold in their words.
A man walked up to Song Xin and smiled unscrupulously, "I see that you are a tender-skinned boy, why don't you let me have fun too?" Then he reached out to touch Song Xin's face.
Suddenly, he yelled, and his body flew out like a sandbag, breaking a tree as thick as a bowl. Then he rolled to the ground, limp like a pile of rotten flesh, and his life was instantly cut off.
The other four men were stunned for a moment by this kick. Two of them hurriedly went over to check and found that the accomplice's face had been completely dented, his neck was broken, and he was dead.
"Who are you!? Dare to spoil our good deeds!?" The man holding down Tian Qing'er took out a knife, then grabbed her and blocked her in front of him.
Tian Qing'er shouted weakly: "Save me quickly, Mr. Song, please save me..."
"Shut up, or I'll scratch your neck!" the man shouted angrily.
But before he finished speaking, a bloody hole appeared on his forehead, and a stone penetrated directly through his forehead and out of the back of his head. Then a stiff corpse fell backwards, and Tian Qing'er screamed because the knife in the man's hand was about to slit her throat.
Song Xin dodged, held the knife between his two fingers, and swung it to the side. Saved Tian Qing'er's life. She had recovered from the fright. She felt something cold scratch her neck. She thought she was going to die, but she was so frightened that she couldn't help but cry.
Song Xin put her behind him and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, you're fine."
Tian Qing'er came back to her senses and touched her neck. She breathed a sigh of relief and found that her clothes had been torn apart. She exclaimed and hurriedly wrapped her clothes tightly.
Seeing Song Xin kill two of his own people while he was breathing, the remaining three men were so frightened that they were all covered in chaff, and they threatened with stern expressions:
"How dare you leave us alone..."
But before he finished speaking, he was hit by a stone
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The forehead was pierced. Song Xin flashed, rushed in front of him, snatched the dagger from the man's hand and swung it, and the dagger pierced another man's throat.
"Ah!" The last man was so frightened that he collapsed and ran away.
There was a muffled sound, and a stone hit the crook of his leg. The force penetrated directly through the knee and shattered the patella. The man howled miserably, holding his knees and rolling on the ground. In a matter of seconds, four were dead and one was seriously injured. Tian Qing'er had never seen such a cruel scene before. She was so frightened that her eyes rolled back and she fell to the ground and fainted.
The man who collapsed on the ground pointed at Song Xin and said hesitantly: "You... do you know who I am!? Do you dare... do you dare to kill me?"
Song Xin sneered, stepped on the young man's chest, and said, "Oh? What's your background?"
"I...I am the messenger of the Three Saints! If you dare to kill me..."
"Three Saints..." Song Xin's eyes narrowed when he heard the name, and he grabbed his neck and lifted him up.
"Three Saints Sect." Song Xin smiled slyly. The man's neck was pinched and he couldn't make a sound at all. Two hands weakly grabbed Song Xin's arm, trying to break free. But how could Song Xin be so strong that he could easily break free.
Song Xin exerted his strength, and heard a sound like the breaking of bamboo chopsticks, and the man's body suddenly dropped limply and became motionless.
Song Xin threw his body on the ground and looked at Tian Qing'er who fainted from shock. He walked over to the person who pressed her and woke her up. Tian Qing'er woke up as if from a dream, looked at several dead bodies on the ground, and screamed in fright. She had been pampered since she was a child and had never seen such a cruel scene. Suddenly her face turned red. She was half-clothed, and Song Xin could see almost everything she shouldn't look at.
Tian Qing'er said nothing, obviously her fear had not receded. At this time, the maid who went out to ask for help turned back. Seeing that the young lady was saved, she breathed a sigh of relief and trotted up to Song Xin.
"Many...many thanks for saving me, sir."
Song Xin smiled slightly and said: "Miss Tian, it seems that your maid is more sensible than you. The thief has been eliminated, and I will go find the official to collect the body. Miss Tian, it is better to go back and have a good rest." After that, he turned to leave.
Tian Qing'er suddenly said: "Don't leave!"
Song Xin turned around and asked, "Miss Tian, what else can you do?"
"What you saw today must not be spread out!"
Song Xin found it funny. She was obviously begging, but her tone seemed to be ordering.
He curled his lips and said impatiently: "Okay, I won't tell anyone."
Song Xin looked at the maid again and asked, "Why are you here?"
The maid said: "The young lady and I participated in the bathing ceremony and wanted to go to the market. Several members of the Three Saints Cult said that we were in bad luck and wanted to pray for us, so they deceived the young lady and me into coming here. The five villains immediately He showed his fierceness and wanted to use force... They said that they also arrested a few women and said they were going to send them to some kind of flower slave house..."
Song Xin frowned, "Is anyone else kidnapped?"
"Well, that's what that person said." The maid pointed to the limp body of the man under the tree and said.
Seeing that Tian Qing'er and the little maid were still trembling with fear, Song Xin said: "They are all dead. Take your lady and report them to the official. I will search nearby."
After Song Xin left, Tian Qing'er glared at the maid, gritted her teeth and said, "You must remember everything I told you. If you say a wrong word, I will beat you to death."
The little maid was obedient and nodded repeatedly.
Tian Qing'er looked at the direction Song Xin was leaving, her face turning red and white, shame, anger and guilt appearing alternately on her face at the same time.
