Chapter two hundred and fifty two: a surprise
A large number of people gathered at an intersection in front of this road. Judging from the clothes of these people, they must be nearby people.
Their target is not Zeng Kui, because this group of people's attention is elsewhere.
In the center of the crowd, about 20 meters away from the road, there is a deep pit. The bottom of this deep pit cannot be seen from above, and you can also see a stream of black smoke coming out of the pit from time to time.
, and is accompanied by a very unpleasant stench.
The crowd's eyes were focused on the pit.
Two divine men in strange costumes danced or performed rituals next to the pit in conjunction with the drumbeats of the musicians nearby. The combination of drumbeats and dance steps had a magical charm, but it can only be said that the dancing was very good and pleasing to the eye.
, as for other functions, it doesn’t have much effect.
"Kong Laosi's family was eaten by the monsters in this pit, and even their house was gone." A commoner said with his hands folded.
"It's so permeable!"
"I heard that when they came in the morning, they heard the sound of people eating bones and chewing bones from the bottom of the pit."
The faces of the people nearby showed fear, and they told each other the "real" situation.
Although everyone was very scared, their eyes were still staring at the scene in front of them, unwilling to miss any detail.
Most of the people present were discussing in low voices the evil spirits at the bottom of the pit.
Everyone believed that there was a man-eating demon at the bottom of the pit, and there were countless human corpses at the bottom of the pit, which was why the black gas and stench were formed.
Although the people are very scared, none of them are willing to leave here, and they are also very interested in watching it. Country people rarely have entertainment activities, so they are reluctant to leave when there is excitement.
However, the expressions on the faces of the two dancing gods were very solemn. Although the two of them had no cultivation level, they still understood some things after working in the profession of magicians for so many years.
The "dance" between the two of them is not completely useless. It can scare away ordinary ghosts and evil spirits.
But this time, the two of them had no confidence at all, because after dancing for so long, the breath coming from the pit next to them still hadn't changed, which meant that their dancing had no effect at all.
One of the divine men stepped aside and took out a very strange-shaped scimitar. This knife originally had no edge on one side of the blade, but the edge was opened on one side of the original back.
This knife was their treasure at the bottom of the box. It was collected from a wealthy and dilapidated businessman. They didn't know where the knife came from, but there was an inexplicable power in it.
Useful for dealing with weird stuff.
It's just that you can't hold this knife for a long time, otherwise the whole person will become confused, as if he has become another person.
But this time I took out the scimitar not to destroy evil spirits.
"Brother, let's stop here this time!"
While they were getting closer, the man with a scimitar said to the other person.
"Follow the old rules, fool me for a while, then pack your things and leave here directly." Another divine man said with eyes.
The two of them agreed.
The two of them never encounter problems that they cannot solve.
There is only one option: pack up and leave as soon as possible.
Anyway, ordinary people have no way of knowing whether what they say is true or false. As long as they cheat, they can not only leave safely but also take away their rewards.
Although the two divine men have no cultivation, their spiritual sense is very strong. They can sense that there is a deep malice at the bottom of this pit. If they can practice cultivation since childhood, they may be able to achieve something.
The two of them have now made up their minds to leave here, but the stunts must be done well, otherwise it will be difficult to collect money.
"Drink...ha!"
The divine man holding the scimitar took a step forward and shouted loudly at the same time.
Then he took out a bottle from his arms and poured the contents into his mouth.
"puff……"
Following the magic man, he danced a few weird dance steps and then sprayed the contents of his mouth onto the scimitar.
What the divine man spat out was actually blood, and it was his own blood.
The scimitar glowed with red light after it came into contact with the blood, and a vague figure seemed to appear on the scimitar, which looked like a tiger.
"Wow~"
Seeing this magical scene, the people around him suddenly showed expressions of wonder.
"Master!"
The people praised him.
This is the role of the scimitar. Let’s not talk about its ability to kill monsters and eliminate evil. Its ability to bluff people is quite high.
The two magicians looked at each other and knew that they could successfully pass the test again this time. They could deceive ordinary civilians as long as they showed a little bit of magical skills.
The two of them made a lot of money by relying on this trick, but every time bloodletting was uncomfortable, the scimitar only reacted to human blood, and it had to be fresh.
Then the divine man waved his scimitar and began to circle around the pit, and did not stop until the blood on the scimitar disappeared.
At this time, another divine man came forward, took out a large handful of colored papers from the robe he was wearing, and then threw the colored papers into the sky. Under the sunlight, it was like a colorful fireworks.
Like rain.
This scene made the people around them even more excited, and almost all of them completely believed that the two divine men were truly capable masters.
The man holding the scimitar had already put the knife back into the wooden box.
Another characteristic of this machete is that it cannot be used for more than five minutes at a time, otherwise it will have a serious impact on one's self-perception.
The two holy men stopped their rituals and then started talking with the village chief.
"The evil spirit at the bottom of this pit is too fierce. The abilities of my brothers and I are not enough to completely eliminate it. However, we have performed rituals and sealed it with magic weapons." The eldest brother among the divine men told the village chief.
said.
Hearing this, the smile on the village chief's face suddenly froze. He originally thought that these two divine men could solve the problem of the pit, but now he was told that the seal did not solve the problem.
The village chief was a little dissatisfied.
"The evil spirits in this deep pit can eat people. They may come out again after being sealed. The two masters with their supernatural powers must be able to kill the evil spirits completely." The village chief said to the two divine men,
But the look on his face is still very good. After all, you should treat senior people with some respect.
The two men were not evil people. They knew that they could not deal with the evil spirits in the pit. Even if they wanted to escape, they did not boast about solving the problem. After all, this kind of thing could kill people if they were not careful, and they did not want innocent people to die.
The two brothers did not accept compliments at all. They knew very well that if they continued to wait for the evil spirit in the pit to be born, no one present would be able to escape.
However, the two brothers Shenhan had already thought of a countermeasure for this scenario.
Brother Shenhan said: "It is difficult to completely eradicate this evil spirit, but there are still ways to prevent him from doing evil."
Then the holy man told the village chief his solution: just fill in the deep hole, so that no matter what evil spirits were underneath, they would not be able to get out.
"Is this method feasible?"
The village chief asked in confusion.
"feasible."
The two Shenhan brothers affirmed.
To be honest, this method really works, because if the evil spirit underneath is really buried, it will definitely not be able to come out in a short time.
But if you want to do it, you have to do it immediately. The evil spirit will be completely formed in the evening. Fortunately, it is a sunny day, otherwise everyone present would have already received their lunch boxes.
But everyone present knew this, and the two divine men just wanted to waste time and run away.
However, it would take a lot of manpower and material resources to bury such a large pit.
However, the village chief doesn't care about this. Although their village is only a village in name, it has a very abundant labor force and is not bad in terms of money. As long as it can solve the problem, these are trivial matters.
"Tomorrow I will gather people to have this deep pit buried for him. I don't know if it is possible." The village chief asked the two brothers.
The two divine men were very satisfied after hearing the village chief's words. They left as soon as they got the money tonight, and no matter what happened the next day, they would not be found.
"Of course. As long as this deep hole is filled up within three days, we will ensure that there will be no more problems within a hundred years." Brother Shenhan said solemnly.
"Okay, let's leave a few people to guard here to prevent outsiders and children from approaching.
The others will bring hoes, dustpans, etc. to fill the holes tomorrow." The village chief gave instructions.
The village chief was still very dignified, and the villagers immediately agreed and then prepared to leave.
The two divine men declined the village chief's invitation to stay and attend the banquet, saying that they could not afford to delay going to another place to slay demons. Of course, their real intention was to ask the village chief to pay the money as soon as possible.
The village chief had no intention of squeezing money, so he directly asked his subordinates to hand a box into the hands of the eldest brother.
Brother Shenhan only opened the box a little and saw the ocean. The smile on his face couldn't help but rise. This was what they had worked hard for so long.
At this time, Niu Zhuang had already arrived here with Zeng Kui on his back. At Zeng Kui's signal, Niu Zhuang walked towards the crowd.
The combination of a big ox as big as a house, four hulks standing on the head of the big ox, and a tall figure half lying on the back of the ox, already showed that the person who came here must be an extraordinary being.
The temperament comes out without any effort.
This is completely different from the two Shenhan brothers.
The villagers had no intention of blocking Niu Zhuang's footsteps, and spread out to both sides to reveal a wide road for Niu Zhuang.
Niu Zhuang went straight to the pit, and then Zeng Kui jumped off the cow's back. As for the villagers surrounding him, Zeng Kui didn't pay attention at all, but the things under the pit interested him very much.
“What an unexpected surprise!”
