I don't think a dream can make a group of people so crazy.
Moreover, Uncle Yunlan's eyes at that time were emotionless and completely unlike his usual self. There must be something wrong with this.
And who was responsible for the collective poisoning of the villagers?
Is there someone secretly helping me?
It's impossible to think about it, unless it was poisoned by Bai Zimo!
In order to clarify the matter, I asked my adoptive father: "Dad, did you hear or see anything else in the ancestral hall?"
The adoptive father shook his head: "I saw you were beaten all over, so I couldn't care less about anything else, but I seemed to have heard them say that the mountain god was angry!"
"The mountain god is angry? Is there a mountain god in our village?" Now I was even more surprised. I have never heard of a mountain god in this village for more than ten years.
"That was a legend from a long time ago. Nowadays, people don't believe in gods very much, so it's normal for you not to know. But everyone suddenly talks about the mountain god. I think someone must be spreading rumors on purpose!"
My thoughts are the same as those of my adoptive father. This person who deliberately preaches about mountain gods must not have good intentions.
I remember that the lady at that time seemed to have said that God was going to punish me, but she didn’t say it was the mountain god.
It seems that if we want to figure this out, we have to start with the mountain god.
"Dad, what is the legend of the mountain god? Tell me about it!" I looked at him curiously and asked.
My adoptive father glanced at me helplessly: "You are still curious about these things after being injured like this, you!"
But he still told me the story of the mountain god of Yunjia Village.
Yunjia Village is a very ancient village, and it is not uncommon for mythical legends to be spread. The legend of the mountain god began to spread a thousand years ago.
According to legend, the world was in chaos at that time, and the endless wars led to rampant plagues, corpses strewn in the fields, people displaced, and people living in dire straits.
At this time, a miracle doctor appeared in Yunjia Village, who developed a medicine to cure the plague and save the people from the fire and water.
After the world was at peace, the miracle doctor retired to seclusion, and the people spread the news that she had gone to heaven to become a god.
So in order to commemorate her, later generations built a mountain temple to worship her.
I didn't believe in gods and ghosts before, but now that I have seen ghosts with my own eyes and snakes that turned into humans, I can't help but not believe in some things.
But the mountain god is a miraculous doctor, so how could he casually kill people without respecting martial ethics?
Could it be that he resented the villagers for not remembering to make offerings?
Then you shouldn’t have an operation on me!
I think there might be someone doing evil here, using the name of the mountain god to do whatever they want.
"Dad, so the mountain god is a good person, then why did he get angry and poison the whole village? Shouldn't the god protect humans?"
The adoptive father seemed to be confused and frowned: "How can there be a god in this world? It's not all caused by humans. I just hate myself for being incompetent and unable to protect you. If you weren't so lucky, we and I would probably You have already gone to hell! So it is better to ask God than to ask yourself!"
That's right. If God had some use, he wouldn't have to watch me die so miserably.
For example, Bai Zimo, the god of Tiantian's deity.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but glance at Bai Zimo.
He felt like he was lying on his back, even though he didn't say anything and just stood there conscientiously like a slave, he was still being blamed.
"Dad, you should also have a good rest. Don't worry too much about me. I will leave here when I recover. I don't care about the mountain god or not. Don't worry!"
In order to reassure my adoptive father, I talked nonsense seriously.
It is impossible to ignore it. It has caused me so much misery. How can I ignore it?
Even if I have to leave, I have to leave in an upright manner, not like a fugitive.
We can't let our adoptive father stay here alone and become a lamb to be slaughtered.
My adoptive father said "hmm", took away my empty porridge bowl, told me to have a good rest, and went out.
"Bai Zimo, I'm going to the mountain temple tonight. I want to see what mountain god is causing trouble! You go with me. If there is a fight, I have to rely on you!" I am quite self-aware. The truth must be investigated and lives must be saved.
He is a god, even if he is a shadow, he is definitely stronger than ordinary people!
I'm not going to give him a chance to act cowardly!
"When did you dare to order me around?" Bai Zimo snorted coldly, but still sat down obediently!
Pretend, keep pretending for me!
I don’t know if he wants to figure out these things more than I do. They stabbed him in the head with a knife and beat the whole snake body to pieces. Can he swallow this breath?
If he could swallow it, he would no longer be the Bai Zimo who couldn't even transform into his own form in one mouthful.
"You have said that we are one, and if we lose each other, we will both suffer. You can't just watch me go to the mountain temple to die, right?" In order to let him have a way out, I still cooperated very much.
But what I hope more is that he can tell me the truth about what happened that day.
He just looked at me lovingly: "Okay, I'll go with you!"
Only then did I reply with satisfaction: "That's more or less the same, but what do you think is going on with these villagers? Why do they treat me like this?"
Bai Zimo then told me: "These villagers seem to be under control. I noticed that there was a dark atmosphere in your village that day, so I wanted to go around and have a look."
It turned out that he was attacked by a ball of black energy. He was worried that something was wrong with me, so he stopped chasing the black energy and came to find me.
But when he came over, he found that the villagers had knocked out my adoptive father and were about to attack me.
So out of desperation, he set up a barrier to keep me out.
Seeing that they could not do anything to me, the villagers took my adoptive father back to the ancestral hall first.
They knew I would definitely come back and throw myself into the trap.
Bai Zimo wanted me to leave quickly, but a group of black energy came out again, forcing him to take action. In the end, Bai Zimo had to fight with it, and finally came back injured.
But it was too late, he could only watch me being tied into the ancestral hall.
Now I understood. It turned out that the villagers couldn't catch me at that time, so they took away my adoptive father's land first.
It seems that this snake is not completely useless.
At least we can protect each other at critical moments.
But what exactly is this black energy? Even Bai Zimo was hurt by him, so he must have a lot of background.
"Do you know where the black energy comes from? Can you beat me?" Although revenge must be avenged, we still have to act within our capabilities. We cannot ask for trouble.
Where there is life, there is hope.
"This mountain god thing is most likely caused by black energy, but it only appears in the form of energy. I don't know its origin yet, but I always feel a little familiar!" Bai Zimo said as if he was deep in thought.
I didn't disturb him. It was still early anyway and I would not act until night. I wanted to know the enemy's situation first before we could start.
If you go into battle blindly, you will lose your life.
After a while, Bai Zimo seemed to have thought of something: "Alian, I may know what black energy is!"
"What is it?" I asked quickly.
"If I guess correctly, it should be a black snake. Maybe we will have a tough battle tonight. If that guy is really causing trouble, I won't let it go!" Bai Zimo said through gritted teeth.
This was the first time I saw him like this. He used to laugh and curse, but rarely had such a solemn expression.
It seems that we have really encountered a hard problem.
"What's the origin of the black snake? Why does it pretend to be a mountain god?"
Bai Zi Mo Chen looked at me: "That was just a little snake from a thousand years ago. It was originally entrenched in the mountain temple, and it must have been practicing there all these years! As for why it did this, I'm afraid I can't tell until I see it. !”
After Bai Zimo finished speaking, he applied medicine to my back. I looked in the mirror and saw that the snake body on my back was intact, but my skin was red, swollen and purple, but it was nothing serious.
"You said that when they beat me like that, would you be beaten to death too?" I put on my clothes and asked Bai Zimo.
"A bunch of stupid people. If I were beaten to death so easily, I would have died eight hundred times! Don't worry, as long as I don't die, nothing will happen to you!"
It was a pleasure to get his promise, but I seemed to understand the meaning of his words, which meant that if he died, I might not be able to survive.
It's uncle's, which means I can only help him.
He said before that he was going to the ancestral hall to retrieve his true body, but he was in a hurry that day and probably didn't have time to look for it. It seemed that after the black snake matter was resolved, he would have to find his true body.
Endless and endless.
But as a rookie now, if I want to survive, I can only listen to him.
At night, I saw that my adoptive father had turned off the lights and went to sleep, so I went out secretly.
No one saw Bai Zimo anyway, so he swaggered ahead.
"Do you know where the mountain temple is, and you can just walk there like this?" I chased after him and asked.
He looked at me like I was an idiot: "Don't you know about the mountain temple in your village?"
I......
Why didn't I think about this question just now? I knew I should have asked my adoptive father.
I deeply regret it.
It seemed that he had too much trust in this snake, thinking that he knew everything, but it turned out that he was also an idiot.
So, he led me around in the mountains. I don’t know how long it took, and finally I heard him say: “It should be nearby, I smell a familiar smell!”
Damn it, they all moved to the back of the ancestral hall, that’s why he said this.
You might as well have followed my advice and come to the ancestral hall first.
As for taking so many detours in the mountains?
His arrogant little eyes stared at me again: "Do you think it's so easy to find the black snake? He is now a thousand-year-old snake demon. I am just a shadow. Don't be careful? What's the point of taking a detour? Is it Will you sit there and wait for us to question you?"
Well, I lost again.
I really want to ask him: Uncle Bai, you live a long life this year, why are you so thoughtful? Does it take a year for you to become more thoughtful?
Then I was hit on the head: "If you continue to think wildly, are you going to seek revenge from the black snake?"
I could only touch my painful head and pouted: "Look, look, report, report, report, it's all up to you!"
Then he decisively held my hand, cleared away all the vines that might scratch me along the way, and led me carefully forward.
To be honest, I still feel warm in my heart. Although this guy sometimes speaks harshly, he is really gentle when he is gentle!
It's a pity that there is no temperature.
We walked through the forest and stopped in front of an empty hillside.
A cave appeared in front of me, and the words "Mountain Temple" were vaguely visible on it.
Just when I was wondering why the Shanshen Temple was on the mountain behind the ancestral hall, a black air appeared out of thin air in front of me, and then a cheerful male voice came: "Bai Zimo, are you finally out?"
This voice is so familiar.
I thought about it carefully and finally remembered that this was the last sound I heard in the ancestral hall.
I didn't expect that he was actually causing trouble.
I didn't care what species it was, so I held Bai Zimo's hand and roared at the air: "Why don't you show up? What do you mean by being so cowardly?"
