"call……"
Chen Xue exhaled heavily and slowly opened his eyes.
Then, he should have seen the five big faces in front of him - four of humans and one of a dog.
"ah!"
Chen Xue screamed in fright and shrank back hard.
It's normal when you think about it, but the husky's stupid, mean face appears out of nowhere, and whoever looks at it is scared!
What's more, he has bullied himself?
Yao Nan slapped the dog on the head and said displeasedly.
"Gouzi, you scared my teacher!"
Zhu Cong felt wronged.
"Woof woof, it's my fault too."
I said warmly to Chen Xue.
"Teacher Chen, don't be afraid. I am Wu Zhong, your former student. It's okay, it's okay. You don't have to worry about being bullied by this stupid dog anymore."
"Wu Zhong..."
Chen Xue looked at me, his confused eyes gradually returned to normal, and he recognized me.
"It's Wu Zhong! You... run, run! It turns out there are really ghosts and monsters in this world. They will take over your body and control you to do many bad things."
His first reaction was to push me away quickly to prevent me from being harmed by monsters and monsters.
But after pushing twice, he suddenly realized that the scary and ferocious dog demon just now was right next to him!
"Dog monster...this, this..."
Chen Xuegang's eyes regained clarity and became confused and frightened again.
I quickly got straight to the point.
"Teacher Chen, don't be afraid. This dog demon is actually the landowner of Lianghe Town. It can't be regarded as an evil creature. It mainly has a misunderstanding with you. Now it has been persuaded and educated by me, and it has realized its mistakes. , agree to compensate you for your losses..."
I spoke concisely and quickly told Chen Xue the cause and effect, which made him look shocked. I hesitated to speak several times, but in the end it just turned into a sigh.
"So, is this the world like this? It's completely different from what I thought before. It turns out it's all fake, alas..."
Chen Xue's expression was a little sad.
In fact, it's normal. For a person with a sound and firm outlook like him, if he finds that his previous perceptions are wrong, he will definitely collapse.
I quickly comforted him.
"Teacher Chen, you can't actually say that. You can understand that there are no such religious gods in this world. There are only some [cultivation beings] that are more powerful than ordinary people and ordinary creatures."
"Even science and metaphysics are originally two sides of the same coin and arrive at the same destination through different paths. Regarding creatures with extraordinary power, from a biological perspective, you can think of it as a kind of individual evolution."
"Just like for monkeys, humans are more highly evolved creatures. For ants, many mammals are at a higher level. Or within organisms, there are strengths and weaknesses among individuals, which is normal."
That's it, that's it...
Chen Xue murmured to himself, seeming to feel a little better.
"In other words, there is no such thing as [gods] in the sense of religious mythology, but the evolution of individual power. In essence, there is no difference. As for ghosts, can it also be explained by information carrying? Just like using a tape recorder to record people If so, a camera can capture a person's impression. The natural magnetic field of the universe can also leave complete information about a living being."
That's right!
I smiled when I saw Chen Xue relieved.
"As expected of the famous teacher of our Lianghe District Middle School, he understood it immediately. So, there are no feudal superstitions in religion, but only various forms of [evolved life]."
"I see."
Chen Xue completely returned to normal. He looked at the husky next to him, sticking out his tongue and wagging his tail, and then looked at me and asked.
"Then Wu Zhong, how did you convince this dog... this land lord? Did you do it too?"
I nodded.
"Yes, Teacher Chen. I am also a practitioner myself. It just so happens that I am a little more powerful than it."
Chen Xue showed an expression of "Sure enough," and looked at Wang Dachun and Zeng Jin next to him, suddenly realizing.
"No wonder these two guys wanted to bully you when you first came to school, but later they became your little followers. I was still surprised, but now I probably understand."
Wang Dachun immediately shouted.
"Teacher Chen, the boss and I are not what you think! I didn't succumb to his power, but I was infected by his charisma."
Hahaha!
We all laughed and the atmosphere in the room became lighter.
Chen Xue looked at Zhu Cong.
"I'm really sorry, Lord Tutu. I overturned your tribute and I didn't do the right thing. But you really shouldn't let that kid Zhong Yicheng spend so much money on useless things. Wu Zhong also said just now , you can’t actually bless his grades to improve, can you?”
Zhu Cong stretched out his two front paws, held Chen Xue's hands, and spoke with sincerity.
"Brother Chen..."
Um? !
My eyes widened.
Good on you husky! You actually want to take advantage of me?
After Zhu Cong sensed my "murderous intent", he immediately reacted and quickly changed his words.
"Ah, no, no, Uncle Chen, I mean Uncle Chen! We don't know each other anymore, let's let bygones be bygones. I just came to Lianghe Town, although I have suffered from the Qi of connecting the earth veins The people have pawned the land for incense, but they don’t know the specific situation. In the future, I will use magic methods such as dreaming to prevent the poor from spending money to pay tribute. Just come to my temple during the holidays and burn some incense and paper money. .”
"The land understands justice well. I misunderstood you before."
Chen Xue and Husky settled their differences.
I was a little speechless. Teacher Chen was indeed simple-minded. If I hadn't suppressed him, how could he have behaved so innocently?
From what Yao Nan said, huskies are not good dogs to begin with. Commonly known as "Er Ha", "Home Destroyer Maniac" and so on...
But I wonder again, since dogs like huskies are stupid and can destroy homes, why do city people like to keep them?
Yao Nan laughed.
"Because being stupid and mean is cute."
"Uh... So, Madoka's silly bird is also cute?"
"Of course! Madoka is quite cute."
"Okay, but I have reservations."
After the "grievance" between Chen Xue and Zhu Cong was resolved, we said goodbye and left.
Although the couple enthusiastically tried to persuade us to stay for dinner, they still declined, and agreed that they would come to their home to sit there when they returned to Lianghe Town.
After leaving Chen Jia, the four of us separated. Although they were reluctant to leave, they also had gatherings with other relatives and friends.
It’s the Chinese New Year, so busy!
Zhu Cong and I were left, and the bitch smiled obsequiously.
"Angkor, do you want to sit in my earth temple?"
I nodded.
"Okay, let's go and have a look."
What? !
The Husky's expression was dull for a moment.
Obviously, this guy was just being polite to me, but he didn't expect me to actually go!
For a moment, I was a little confused.
I glanced at it.
"You just said that when you came to Lianghe Town, you found that the original Tugong was dead? And he died not long ago. Of course I have to go and see about this."
"Oh, Angkor is a righteous monk and wants to investigate the cause of the death of the previous generation?"
The husky laughed along with him and breathed a sigh of relief.
I nodded and said nothing.
In fact, when the husky earth master just told his experience, I already felt a little inexplicable uneasiness in my heart.
These days, because this dynasty does not recognize "ox ghosts and snake gods" and "feudal superstition", it is even more impossible to canonize gods and earthly creatures. Therefore, the cultivation methods of the [God] lineage are basically discontinued. Only some remnants of the old era remain...
The city gods do not exist, the mountain gods, river gods and the like are still demons in nature, and the number of "little gods" like Tu Gong, the weakest and easiest to cultivate, is pitifully small.
But now two of them are killed in a row!
I couldn't help but think back to the poor little mouse apprentice in Wenjia Village. Not only was the statue decapitated, but his real body was also completely shattered.
Right now, the same is true for the more powerful land of Lianghe Town...
Could it be that there is a similar mastermind behind this?
You need to go to the Earth Temple in Lianghe Town to see it!
