Chapter 4 Demon
Lujiazhuang is at the foot of the mountain.

It was only when Liang Jin entered Lujiazhuang in a carriage that he realized how serious the plague was.

Although the people in the convoy we saw before were also infected with the plague, they were still able to move around normally.

Because everyone in the team is young and strong.

In Lujia Village, most of the people are the elderly, the weak, women and children, and their conditions are much more serious.

The sound of violent coughing continued in the village.

Liang Jin saw many bodies of elderly people and children being carried out of the house and prepared for collective incineration.

It can be said that every family is in mourning.

What a tragic scene.

As the convoy arrived, everyone in the village gathered around with a "whoosh!"

"Master, did you buy any medicine to treat your illness when you went to the city this time?"

"My mother can't hold on any longer. Master, please think of a solution!"

"Master, please give me some medicine! My youngest son is already dead, and I really don't want to lose my eldest son too. He's very ill!"

……

The villagers' faces were full of anticipation, and all eyes were focused on Lu Tianxing.

Lu Tianxing stood in the carriage and told everyone about the trip:
"We were unable to enter the city this time. The city gates have been closed for many days and outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering."

"I heard that the plague in the city is also very serious. I saw with my own eyes that the bodies of the sick were thrown out of the city walls."

"And the medicinal herbs are simply unavailable in the surrounding towns. All of them have been sold out."

When the villagers heard this, they all looked sad.

The closed city gates meant that the county magistrate no longer cared about the lives of these people.

Now everyone in Lujia Village has fallen ill, and the lack of medicine means that more people in the village will die.

Even... die out!
The feeling of despair hung over everyone's heart like a dark cloud.

"But! Heaven will not destroy our Lu Family Manor!"

"I was fortunate to meet a miracle doctor who can cure the epidemic on the road, and I have already invited him to the village."

Lu Tianxing spoke in a high voice.

He only said "miracle doctor" but not "god".

Because Lu Tianxing doesn't believe in ghosts and gods at all.

He has been traveling around the country for many years and has seen many so-called "curing diseases with talismans and water" tricks.

On the surface, they give people talisman water to drink, but in fact they use medicine to treat the patients, but make the patients think that they are cured by drinking the talisman water.

The bowl of talisman water that his daughter drank might have been added with medicinal powder by Liang Jin in an unknown way.

The only thing that puzzled Lu Tianxing was the exaggerated therapeutic effect.

When everyone in the village heard this, they were all in an uproar:

"Miracle doctor? Where is the miracle doctor?"

Under everyone's expectant gaze, Liang Jin walked out of the carriage.

"Is this the miracle doctor?"

Everyone looked surprised.

Because Liang Jin in front of him looked too young.

Liang Jin jumped off the carriage and walked straight past the crowd.

As he walked, he spoke in a high voice:
"I have received the teachings of Huang Taiyi, one of the gods in heaven, to save the world from plague."

"Those who join my Taiping Dao can obtain talisman water to dispel the plague."

Everyone looked at each other.

Isn’t he a miracle doctor?

How did it become the magic water again?

Why do the owner of the manor and this young man say completely different things?
But this is not important.

The important thing is whether he can cure the epidemic?
Lu Qiannan also jumped off the carriage at this time:
"Everyone look at me!"

"This gentleman cured my disease!"

"By the way, his name is the Great Sage Teacher!"

When everyone in the village saw it, they all exclaimed in surprise.

If the young lady can cure it, then there will be absolutely no problem.

The farmhands in the convoy also confirmed Lu Qiannan's words, which made everyone more convinced.

They followed Liang Jin one after another, pleading loudly:
"Great and virtuous teacher, please save me!"

"I want to enter the Dao, I want to enter the Taiping Dao!"

Liang Jin held his head high and chest out, and kept walking.

As he walked, he spoke:
"Those who join the Taiping Dao must pay five dou of rice and recite the Taiping Sutra."

"With pious faith, I pray morning and evening."

Everyone followed closely.

"I am willing!"

“We all do!!!”

Lu Qiannan and the farmhands also followed Liang Jin excitedly.

Liang Jin came to the rice field in the center of the village and finally stopped.

He picked up a bamboo stick and tapped the ground:
"Set up a large pot here and boil water."

"Set up the altar, fill it with cinnabar, spread out yellow paper, and prepare the purple hair."

"All of you follow me and pray to Huang Tian for a talisman to drive away the plague ghost!"

Lu Qiannan immediately took people to prepare the necessary props.

The rest of the people in the village knelt down around Liang Jin and begged the so-called Huang Tian to send down talismans.

Only Lu Tianxing was left beside the carriage.

There was no one to accompany him, and they all followed Liang Jin.

As the owner of the manor, Lu Tianxing felt lonely and even... scared!
He looked at Liang Jin, who was being treated like a star and worshipped by everyone, and felt a chill down his spine.

These villagers didn't understand anything, but Lu Tianxing had been doing business for many years and was knowledgeable and experienced, so he could see things more clearly than anyone else.

magician!

This Liang Jin is definitely a monster!
In the year when the plague was rampant, they formed a sect and recruited many believers under the pretext of using talismans and water to cure diseases.

The most important thing is that he can really cure diseases!

This will further attract ignorant people. If this evil person continues to do this for a long time, what will happen?

Once he stirs up trouble, it will definitely bring disaster to Lujiazhuang!
I'm afraid that all the more than 200 people in the village will be implicated and lose their heads!
Lu Tianxing wanted to stop him.

I even wanted to report to the police immediately!
The government will never sit idly by and watch this evil man mislead the people.

Can……

Without Liang Jin, how can this plague be cured?

For a moment, Lu Tianxing didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse to bring Liang Jin into Lujiazhuang.

The sound of chanting has already begun in the rice field.

Liang Jin recited once, and everyone followed in unison.

The sounds came one after another, continuously.

These voices made Lu Tianxing feel confused and restless.

He just wanted to cover his ears and completely block out the noisy chanting.

A burst of laughter!
Lu Tianxing suddenly woke up.

Liang Jin was holding a bowl of talisman water and leading everyone to Lu Tianxing.

It was already dark.

The bright bonfire burning in the rice field cast Liang Jin's shadow very long.

In the deepening night, Liang Jin's face was a little blurry as he stood with his back to the fire.

But Lu Tianxing felt that his eyes were particularly bright.

Liang Jin stared at Lu Tianxing with sparkling eyes, as if he could see through people's hearts.

"I am saving people and will save more people."

"They want to live, and live healthily."

Liang Jin said lightly.

Lu Tianxing felt a little guilty and his Adam's apple moved.

He wanted to say something, but his mouth felt dry.

The villagers wanted to live, and they were not wrong.

It is true that Liang Jin is indeed curing diseases and saving lives.

He saved the villagers' lives, so it seemed right for him to ask them to do as he asked.

This made Lu Tianxing confused as to who was wrong.

Liang Jin picked up the talisman water:

"Master Lu, if you join the Taiping Dao, you can obtain talisman water to cure diseases."

"Do you want to drink this bowl of talisman water or not?"

Lu Tianxing subconsciously wanted to take a step back.

He couldn't stop trembling all over.

He fears.

He was afraid that once he joined the Taiping Dao, he would be tied to this evil man.

If this evil person causes trouble in the future, I will definitely be charged with treason!

rebellion!!!

For a civilian like Lu Tianxing, this was a crime that was as devastating as the end of the world.

How can he afford it?

Lu Qiannan said excitedly:
"Dad, the Great Sage Master has agreed to teach me martial arts!"

"Who knows, I might be the first warrior in our village!"

"The Great and Good Master also said that capable generals will have the opportunity to learn martial arts in the future."

My daughter's face flushed with excitement, and it was obvious that she was looking forward to it.

The villagers were also full of anticipation and surrounded Liang Jin in awe.

But Lu Tianxing felt even colder in his heart.

This monster organized the people and even wanted to practice martial arts?

He really has ambitions! He really has plans!

The bowl of talisman water was handed to Lu Tianxing again.

Liang Jin's voice was like a death warrant, pressing:
"To drink or not to drink?"

For a moment, Lu Tianxing wanted to get everyone to work together to capture the monster and hand him over to the authorities!
But he was not sure whether the villagers would still obey his orders now?

He only knew that if he wanted to prevent the villagers from curing the epidemic and destroy their lives, then he would be wrong.

Especially... he was also infected with the plague.

He wants to live too!
He had no choice.

"Dad! Drink the talisman water quickly!"

"This is the first bowl of talisman water that the Great Sage Master asked Huang Tian for!"

Lu Qiannan urged.

Everyone in the manor also looked expectant. Like Lu Qiannan, they all hoped that the owner of the manor would be in good health.

I really don't know what the owner of the manor is still hesitating about?
Lu Tianxing was speechless and felt uncomfortable with a stuffy chest.

He didn't know what to say.

Finally, Lu Tianxing closed his eyes slightly and let out a sigh of relief.

At this moment, he seemed to have unloaded a heavy burden.

He slowly knelt down and bowed his head to Liang Jin:
"I, Lu Tianxing... wish to enter the Dao."

Then he took the talisman water and drank it all.
