Lu and Chun, who were in the house, were listening attentively to the village chief's recollection of past events when they suddenly heard a "rumbling" sound of thunder in the clear sky. The sudden thunder caused the village chief's story to come to an abrupt end. It also startled Lu Chun, who was half asleep, and woke him up completely.
"Ouch! Why is there thunder in this winter? I'm so scared!" Lu Chun was awakened by the thunder and muttered in displeasure and frowned. He had heard that "the spring thunder does not strike and the winter thunder does not hide, and the country will be injured when the army rises." This thunder at the end of winter made him wonder whether it was predicting that something unexpected was about to happen.
"Thunder hits winter, thunder hits winter, nine out of ten cattle pens are empty... It seems that a disaster is coming..." The village chief was interrupted by the thunder, and he couldn't help but murmur.
The sky suddenly became gloomy, which made Lu Chun feel a little uncomfortable. He turned around and happened to see an oil lamp placed in the corner. Although the oil lamp had been covered with dust for a long time, there was still a thick layer of oil inside. Just take any wick and connect it to it and you can ignite it.
But the village chief didn't know how to read Lu Chun's thoughts, and suddenly said: "Boy, you don't need to use your eyes to listen to the old man talking. Even if you light the oil lamp, it won't have the slightest effect. You'd better sit still and continue listening." Just keep nagging me, old man."
Hearing the village chief speak, Lu Chun could only put away his thoughts, fold his arms and close his eyes to rest.
The village chief turned his head and listened to the birdsong outside the window for a while, then turned around and continued the previous topic...
Because at that time, the village chief's eyelids suddenly twitched and his breathing became rapid. He always felt uneasy. When the white fog dispersed, he started to stride forward and hurried forward. The ground in front of him was also rapidly approaching him.
But when he was only a few feet away from the shore, there was a sudden cracking sound under his feet. He looked down and his face suddenly turned pale. He saw that the ice where he landed seemed to have woven a spider web, which was rapidly spreading around.
The village chief wanted to jump and roll to the shore, but he didn't expect that as soon as he exerted force under his feet, the spider web could no longer hold up and fell into pieces. And like a prey, he fell into the spider web with a swish.
The village chief often wanders around and travels to rivers, lakes and seas. He does not dare to claim that his water quality is excellent, but fortunately it is not too bad. Although it was a bit embarrassing to fall into the water at the last moment, as long as he could swim a few more steps, he could get out of the predicament.
But when he tried to swim towards the shore, he suddenly found that he couldn't move forward even half an inch! Not only that, he couldn't even keep himself above the water, and could only feel the coldness beneath him quickly engulfing him.
He could only let out a exclamation in time before he was completely immersed in the cold and dark water...
Later, when he woke up, he suddenly found himself lying in a small house. The house was surrounded by walls on three sides, and outside the only window was a piece of water shrouded in white mist.
He pinched himself and realized that he was still alive, and he was trying to remember what had happened before. But the only thing he remembered was a few vague white shadows and a swaying black flame...
Just when he was thinking hard and couldn't figure out how he was saved, he suddenly saw the wall behind him slowly falling down, and he saw a figure in white walking in.
When the village chief saw the person coming, he knew that he must have saved him, and he knelt down and thanked him repeatedly. However, the person asked him expressionlessly who he was and how he broke into Qi Medical Sect?
Hearing that the three-character village chief of Qi Medical Sect was surprised and happy, he told all his affairs without reservation, and kowtowed repeatedly in the hope that Qi Medical Sect could help solve the disease in their village.
The man saw that the village chief was not lying, so he changed his attitude and helped him up, and then wrote a prescription according to the village chief's description. After some preparations, the man sent him outside Doctor Qi's door and asked the latter to leave quickly.
Because this man had been deliberately avoiding outsiders on the road before, the village chief also noticed something and asked if leaving like this would cause him any trouble.
The man just smiled and said that the Qi Medical Sect was hidden and hard to find. It was fate that he came here. Those people were just worried that he had ulterior motives and locked him up. Since the misunderstanding was resolved, there was no need to embarrass him anymore. This person will explain it clearly to Qi Medical Sect afterwards.
After saying that, the man handed him an oil lamp and told him that the oil lamp was a guide to Qi Medical Gate. As long as he walked in the opposite direction of the light, he could leave Qi Medical Gate safely.
The village chief received a favor but felt he had nothing to repay, so he had to kneel down again. But this man took a step forward and stopped him in time, saying that Qi Medical Sect was surrounded by weak water. If he didn't leave quickly, he would never be able to leave again when the flowers bloomed in spring and the ice and snow melted.
Seeing the resolute attitude of the man opposite, the village chief asked for his name, hoping to get the opportunity to repay this man in the future. This person did not conceal his name, saying that his name was Lin Qingxuan. If the village chief really wanted to repay him, he only had to do one thing, that is, never reveal the whereabouts of Qi Medical Sect! Then he lit the oil lamp and threw the village chief into the white mist with one palm...
Later, the village chief returned to the village according to the instructions of the oil lamp, and used Qi Medicine's prescriptions to remove the malaria in the village. It was precisely for this reason that he became the village chief here.
After the disease was eliminated, peace finally returned to the village, and everything was back on track. The village chief also remembered Lin Qingxuan's instructions and never told anyone about the Qi Medical Sect.
But there are always people who will forget about it once they get an advantage. After a young man in this village was cured of a malaria disease, he would brag to everyone he met that he had been saved by an expert from the Qi Medical School, just to get a sticker on his face. gold.
Although this was just a lie driven by his vanity, it was spread from one to another. The more the lie was repeated, the more people would gradually believe it. Finally, one day, the words reached the ears of interested people.
The Xinghuo Sect has always wanted to find the Qi Medical Sect to work for them. Now that they have finally received the news, how can they miss it? So a Tianmen killer was sent to the village to inquire about the news.
The man was just talking out of hand at the beginning, but he didn't expect that people would still care about the matter after so many years. He hurriedly told the story about the village chief bringing the prescription.
Seeing that the Tianmen killer could no longer get any clues from this man, he slit his throat with a knife, and then found the village chief and interrogated him.
The village chief had already seen through life and death, and insisted that he only got the prescription by chance and did not know anything about the Qi Medical Sect. Seeing that he could not make the village chief relent, the Tianmen killer asked him to hand over the prescription and then turned and left.
The village chief understood the Xinghuo Sect's behavior and knew that they would never give up until they got clues, so he asked the villagers to hide outside and prepare themselves to deal with the next trouble.
But his adopted daughter wanted to stay anyway, so the village chief had no choice but to temporarily agree. Then when she relaxed her vigilance, he tied her up and hid her under the statue of the three-faced beast emperor in the ruined temple.
Later, the Xinghuo Sect's Tianmen killer came back and said that he had asked someone to find out that this prescription was indeed the method of the Qi Medical Sect, and he wanted to force him to find the whereabouts of the Qi Medical Sect for the Xinghuo Sect.
But the village chief remembered clearly that if his benefactor hadn't helped him, he might not have been able to save his life. If he was taken away by this man today, and if he was brainwashed by the Xinghuo sect members, the consequences would be disastrous.
So he took advantage of the Tianmen killer's unpreparedness and poured the poisonous powder prepared in advance into his mouth, preparing to die in front of him to make him give up. But he didn't expect that the Tianmen killer would react so quickly. He would sneer and pinch out his mouth and nose, making it impossible for him to put the poisonous powder into his mouth!
The village chief's mind was racing. He thought that although he couldn't wish to die, as long as he couldn't lead them the way, he would have no value anymore. I believed that the Xinghuo Sect would kill him without having to do anything himself!
So he flipped his palm and slapped the poisonous powder directly onto his face. As his eyes burned, the light that had been with him for decades could no longer be seen.
The killer didn't expect the village chief to be so strong, and he shouted angrily and wanted to slap him to death. But before he could take action, he suddenly heard the sound of broken dishes coming from the distance.
Hearing that the sound was coming from the direction of the ruined temple, the village chief, who was still in pain, suddenly sobered up a little. He thought that his adopted daughter must have broken free from her bonds and made the noise. Feeling anxious and in pain, he Then he was so anxious that he fainted.
When he woke up again and heard the sobbing sounds on his body, he knew that his adopted daughter was safe and sound, and he was relieved.
Later, I heard from my adopted daughter that she accidentally bumped into the altar table while struggling that day, and then she heard footsteps rushing towards her. She also carefully peeked out from under the statue of the three-faced beast king.
She saw that the person coming was full of murderous intent, and he was not a kind person at first glance, especially because the tiger's mouth on his palm was stained with a lot of blood, which made her feel in a daze, thinking that the village chief had been murdered.
Although she was adopted by the village chief, the latter treated her as his own, and she had already regarded the village chief as her biological father. She was heartbroken when she saw this situation.
But before she had time to react, the moment the person came saw the three-faced beast emperor statue, a deep fear suddenly appeared on her face, and then she turned around and left the place, never to come back again.
At first, she thought this man was being mysterious and trying to attract her to appear. But it wasn't until she touched a fragment of a dish with her hands behind her back and cut the rope that the person didn't show up. She breathed a sigh of relief and hurried back, where she found the village chief whose life or death was uncertain...
I heard from the doctor that his eyes were unable to regain his vision due to the poisonous powder, but fortunately the poisonous powder left in his eyes did not spread, so he was lucky enough to survive.
And from that day on, perhaps because of the shock of the three-faced beast emperor statue, the Starfire Sect never came to look for trouble for him again...
