Underneath the foundation of Akang's new house is actually a passage leading to the underworld, because his excavations did destroy the earth veins here. Those ghosts in armor that we saw lined up before are actually from the underworld. The Yin soldiers took advantage of the situation!
As for those ghost figures carrying lanterns, they are sentinels among the Yin soldiers!
These Yin soldiers have extremely heavy Yin energy, which can easily contaminate some children who are born with insufficient Yang energy and fall into a semi-conscious state. Unknowingly, they follow those Yin soldiers into the Yin side.
However, these Yin soldiers are all ghosts with Yin status, and they will not attack living people at will. It will not take long for those deluded children to wake up automatically, and then they will be able to come out of the Yin side and return home. .
As for the woman in red who was singing on the stage, Lao Dixian shook his head and said that he did not know her identity.
After some questioning, I asked the old immortal to leave, and we returned to An Jingjing's home, planning to investigate the situation of the female ghost in red the next day.
Early the next morning, as soon as I got dressed, there was a hurried knock on the door. I stepped forward to open the door and saw Jing Jingjing standing in front of me, with a face full of anxiety.
"Mr. Cheng, it's not good!"
"The villagers are going to burn Akang to death today, please go and save him!"
My heart moved, and I quickly woke up Bai Ze, Lonnie and Xiaona. Under the leadership of An Jingjing, they hurried out of the house.
Soon, we came to a small square in the center of Sijiazhuang. At this time, the place was already bustling with people and crowded with villagers watching the excitement.
An altar has been set up in the middle of the small square. The quiet husband A Kang was tied up to a pillar. Under the pillar, there was a pile of dry firewood.
Two broad-shouldered men, holding torches in their hands, stood on either side of A'kang, ready to light a fire at any time.
The old village chief of Sijiazhuang was standing next to the altar and delivering a speech to the villagers.
"Everyone, listen to me."
The old village chief stretched out his hand and pressed down, and the crowd suddenly fell silent. Everyone stared at the old village chief, waiting for his speech.
"Our temple village has lived in peace for decades, but strange things have happened frequently recently, and many innocent villagers have died as a result, and the culprit of all this is him!"
The old village chief pointed at Akang, with a look of anger in his eyes.
"It was because he disobeyed advice and dug out the dragon's veins in the ground that Master Long brought disaster to our temple village."
"Today, we will sacrifice Akang alive to appease Lord Long's anger. I hope you can all be witnesses!"
As soon as the old village chief finished speaking, a burst of enthusiastic cheers suddenly erupted from the crowd.
"Burn him, burn him!"
People pointed at Akang and shouted loudly, with extremely angry faces.
These villagers are not evil people, but because of cognitive defects, everyone firmly believes in the words of the old village chief, as if as long as Akang dies, everything will calm down.
"No, I have to save him!"
An Anjing stood behind the crowd. Seeing this scene, he couldn't hold it in any longer and immediately rushed into the crowd to save A'kang.
I quickly reached out and pulled her back.
"Don't be impulsive. If you go there now, not only will you not be able to save A'kang, but you will arouse the anger of the villagers and let them vent their anger on you!"
"But……"
Jing Jing Jing still wanted to say something, so I waved my hand to her: "No need to say more."
"If you still believe in us, just do as I say. I can assure you that Akang will be fine."
When I said this, Jing Jing Jing was still a little worried, but she didn't dare to say anything more and could only stand aside and wait for my instructions.
I asked Lonnie and Bai Ze to support me from the outside. I squeezed into the turbulent flow of people and kept approaching the altar. When people were not paying attention, I quickly took out a talisman and stuffed it under A Kang's body. Among dry firewood.
Not long after, the old village chief looked up at the sky, and then said: "The time has come, the living sacrifice has begun!"
Following his order, two strong men next to the altar immediately placed their torches on the pile of dry firewood.
However, for some reason, as soon as the torch touched the dry wood, it went out as if it was put into water!
The two men looked surprised. They looked at the torches in their hands and then at the pile of dry firewood. They couldn't figure out what was going on!
"What happened?"
The old village chief glanced at the two men dissatisfied, then lit the torch himself and placed it on the dry wood.
Only a click was heard, and the torch was extinguished again.
At this time, the old village chief also showed a puzzled expression. There was no problem with the torch and the dry firewood, but why couldn't he light it?
As everyone knows, the reason why this torch cannot be lit is exactly the effect of the talisman I just put in.
This is a fire-avoiding talisman given by my father-in-law at the foot of Dagushan Mountain. After being used, it can avoid all fires within ten minutes.
"I think this is God's will. God doesn't let you burn A'kang to death!"
When I saw that the fire was coming, I stood up and said loudly to the old village chief and all the villagers.
Most of the villagers living in this isolated countryside are ignorant and superstitious. I knew that if I rescued people directly, I would definitely conflict with the villagers.
So let's just use a method that the villagers can understand to tell them that sacrificing A'kang alive is wrong.
Sure enough, when I said these words, people focused their eyes on me, with a trace of hesitation in their eyes.
"who are you?"
The old village chief glanced at me and shouted sternly.
"I am a businessman. I passed by here and noticed the gloomy atmosphere in your village, so I came to check it out."
"After my investigation, I can confirm that what happened in your village has nothing to do with Akang. It is actually the breeding of evil spirits caused by changes in the Feng Shui pattern. As long as the earth veins are repaired, those evil spirits will naturally disappear."
"Why should we trust you?"
The old village chief stared at me and said in a suspicious tone.
"It's simple,"
I said: "I can conclude right now that the children who disappeared in your village will come back by themselves before sunset tomorrow."
"Besides, after I repair the feng shui of the earth's veins, there will be no more will-o'-the-wisps."
"As for other supernatural events, they have nothing to do with Xiaokang."
At this time, several children in the crowd also pointed at me and shouted loudly.
"This is the uncle who sent us home last night. He saved us!"
The old village chief called the children over and asked about what happened yesterday. After the children finished talking, his doubts about me had dissipated a lot.
