Zhu Xian: Learn from the Great Ying Immortal and rebuild the Trinity School

Chapter 27 Threatening with Life
"what!?"

After hearing this, the little girl covered her mouth in fear.

She never imagined that the mountain god, whom the villagers believed in, would look like such a monstrous creature.

The worldview that I had formed in this village since I was eight years old was shaken for the first time.

It turns out that those things that seem divine and high-end are not necessarily the genuine goods.

"It's just an old one-legged mandrill."

Xu Zhiqiu sneered, not knowing who he was mocking, "You villagers worship monsters as gods, that's quite something."

At this moment, the eight-foot-long mandrill twitched twice and then died from its serious injuries.

The one-legged old mandrill covered in "human skin" and wearing a crown first jumped around the corpse, poked it twice, and then let out a shrill roar.

"Huh—!"

It can be seen that he was furious.

The whistling sound echoed throughout the valley, and ripples appeared in the wine pool.

The group of mandrills, big and small, who were bowing below, all crouched and trembled.

Then, the old mandrill began to make strange noises and dance.

The dead man was lying on the ground, with black blood flowing out from his broken arm. It condensed into a blood snake and twisted in the air.

The "snake head" rotates in four directions, as if locking onto a target.

It should be some kind of sorcery that uses blood as a medium to search for enemies.

Xu Zhiqiu frowned and grabbed the little girl's arm.

"We can't stay here any longer, let's go!"

He grabbed her and ran away.

However, the blood snake seemed to have suddenly sensed the unusual movement and shot out like a sharp arrow, heading towards the two of them.

The old mandrill and the other monsters immediately turned their gazes over.

The little girl's lips turned pale with fear.
Xu Zhiqiu's eyes became serious.
Earth-Walking Fairy

The soil beneath his feet was liquefying, and he was about to escape underground.

however,
“Wow——!”

Before he could even start to use his energy, the old baboon roared again, shaking Xu Zhiqiu's spiritual platform.

Just when he was about to use all his strength to resist, he looked at the little girl in his arms - she covered her ears in pain, her face turned purple, as if all the blood in her body was about to burst out from her head.

Xu Zhiqiu panicked and quickly put his hand on her forehead, then began to use his internal energy to protect her.

In just this short moment, the old white-haired mandrill bent its legs and jumped, blocking his retreat.

And those dozens of small mandrill monsters also picked up swords, spears, iron weapons, bamboo forks and sharp stones and surrounded him.

In the blink of an eye, you are surrounded.

"Roar!"

The old baboon's roar was unclear, but Xu Zhiqiu clearly heard the syllables of two words.

"Looking for￥%%...&death..."

He has a face as ferocious as a demon's, but he is dressed like a human.

It seems even more out of place, yet also makes people's scalp tingle.

The evil spirit and murderous intent transformed into red and black qi, entwining around the monster's body.

The surrounding grass and trees were oppressed by its breath and all lay down.

"Oh!"

Xu Zhiqiu suddenly realized,
It turned out that he was already in a desperate situation.

"Girl..."

His eyes were as calm as water, and he patted the little girl's thin shoulders that were stiff.

"Hold tight."

………………

Mrs. Lu paced around the yard all night, dragging her sick body.

If Xu Zhiqiu had not left a message asking her to wait patiently, she would have wanted to go out and look for him.

Until the waning moon sets in the west and the morning light appears in the east,
The faint light from the sky illuminated two swaying figures, one large and one small, in the distance, and they were getting closer and closer.

Finally, the door was opened.

The little girl helped Xu Zhiqiu into the yard.

"what!"

When Lu saw the two of them, she was surprised at first, but then she was shocked.

She rushed over and stared at Xu Zhiqiu for a moment, then bit her lip and raised her hand to slap her daughter in the face.

But he was stopped by Xu Zhiqiu.

"Don't blame her..."

Xu Zhiqiu laughed miserably, and a trickle of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

"I am being nosy. I have to find out the truth, otherwise I would have returned long ago."

Lu supported his body and suddenly felt her palms were sticky. She looked closely and saw that they were soaked with blood.

His face was pale and he asked in a trembling voice:

“How…how did it turn out like this!?”

"Mother...I...Brother Zhiqiu..."

The terrifying night had frightened Miss Lu so much that she could no longer speak.

Tears welled up in her eyes and she bit her lip, almost crying.

But he still told Lu the whole story hesitantly.

Upon hearing this, Lu was so shocked that she was speechless for a long time.

"Cowardly."

Being supported and sitting under the tree, Xu Zhiqiu sighed barefoot, his face full of resentment.

Although the old mandrill was ferocious, his methods were quite unique.

But if he was willing to give it a try, he might not be afraid of the one-legged old man.

However, in order to protect the girl, he had no choice but to passively take the beating and flee all the way, only to end up covered in bruises.

He had used up all his strength to be able to escape back alive.

"I'll go get a doctor for you!"

Lu said as she was about to go out.

"Need not."

He hummed slightly.

It's better not to hire him since he's a quack.

Minor flesh injuries are easy to deal with. Once you have recovered some strength, you can use the reverse life technique to heal them.

The problem is the internal injuries, which require some time to recuperate.

Also, the pink flame at the lower part of the body is a risk that must be guarded against.

"Ugh……"

Xu Zhiqiu leaned against the tree, feeling a little dizzy and wanting to sleep.

“Clusters, clusters, clusters!”

Suddenly, a chaotic and heavy sound of footsteps came from a distance.

Xu Zhiqiu looked up in surprise, only to see a large group of people rushing into the courtyard in a dignified manner.

Each of them was holding a knife, gun, stick or cane, and their faces looked unfriendly.

The leader, the old man, was holding a crutch and staring at him with a gloomy face.

"The mountain god just appeared in our dreams, telling us that someone broke into the mountain last night and killed a messenger under the mountain god's throne. Was it you?!"

Xu Zhiqiu nodded.
"If there is no one else, then it should be someone."

"That's great!" Lao Lizheng snorted coldly and raised his hand to say, "Got it!"

"Yes!"

A group of angry villagers approached Xu Zhiqiu with weapons in hand.

There is a momentum of "If you dare to disobey, I will poke you into a sieve."

As a result, the people behind pushed the people in front, causing them to stagger, and a dart really came straight at them.

Clang!
The sharp bladed dart was clamped between Xu Zhiqiu's two fingers and broke into two pieces with a "snap".

"hiss……"

The exaggerated finger strength shocked everyone and made them retreat.

Although he was in a mess, Xu Zhiqiu's eyes were still sharp, and he asked calmly:
"Everyone, what do you want to do?"

Lao Li is standing out from the crowd.

"I know you have some abilities, but today we swear to drive you out of the village!"

The villagers behind him echoed:
"Correct!"

"Be happy in secret! How dare you offend the mountain god... If you were not a citizen of this village, I would make you commit suicide to apologize!"

"Get out of here! You are no longer welcome in Kaoshan Village!"

"..."

Xu Zhiqiu was silent.

Several thoughts flashed through my mind:
Wild gods, enslaved people, suffering, cause and effect...

After pondering it for a while, I suddenly felt a little bored.

"You can't do this to him!"

But it was the little girl from the Lu family who opened her arms and blocked the spear and sword in front of Xu Zhiqiu.

Contrary to his usual taciturn nature, his eyes were cold and firm.

"He went into the mountains to save me, so you can punish me!"

Lao Lizheng frowned and angrily shouted:

"What does a kid know? You have no right to speak! Get out of here!"

"I know! I know everything!"

The little girl held her head high and stared, ready to blurt out:

"That mountain god is actually a..."

He was halfway through saying this when Xu Zhiqiu covered his mouth from behind.

Xu Zhiqiu pulled her behind him.
The little girl was extremely surprised and didn't understand why Xu didn't let her speak.

Xu Zhiqiu shook his head at her.

There is a sentence in my heart, which is thought-provoking——

——Some words, as soon as you open your mouth, will be buried alive by another voice.

However, his health condition is very poor now. If something goes wrong, it will be difficult to control.

Seeing that he seemed to be giving in, the village head called on the villagers to continue approaching.

However, this time, it was Lu who stood in front.

She remained silent, her beautiful face showing neither sadness nor joy, yet it seemed to reveal all her attitudes.

Lao Lizheng paused for a moment and said anxiously:

"Lu's wife, what do you mean by this?"

At this moment, Lu shed her former weakness and became strong.

He asked back in a cold voice:

"He's already so injured. If we kick him out, how can he survive?"

"Lu's wife!"

The old man's wrinkled face twitched as he suppressed his anger:

"Over the past few years, we have all been grateful to your family, so we have taken good care of you and your son."

"But this is not a reason for you to push your luck. You should know... this is about the anger of the mountain god, not that I am unkind."

After saying that, he was about to bypass her and send someone to arrest Xu Zhiqiu.

But Lu's next move scared all the villagers, including the old man, and they all stopped.

She took out a pair of scissors from her sleeve.

Instead of looking for someone else, he pressed it against his neck.

The sharp point pierced the snow-white skin, and a few drops of bright red liquid burst out and dripped down.

"You all, stop it."
