They have already collected the souls of many villagers. Even if the goddess summons them again, it will cost a lot. And now, they are destroying these souls again. The goddess herself did not take action, but just kept reuniting these ghosts. The king did not believe that the goddess could still maintain her prime under such consumption.
He only hoped to hurt the goddess a little bit.
"Brothers, hold on for another quarter of an hour, just a quarter of an hour, and I will definitely hurt the goddess!" Knowing that everyone's souls could not hold on any longer, Wang estimated the time in his mind and shouted to the fat man and the others.
Gritting their teeth, the other people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau were trying to hold on. Even though they really couldn't hurt these ghosts anymore, no one gave up and they all persisted here, just to buy more time for Wang Ye.
The blue array plate shone brightly, and the next second, Wang Ye's figure appeared in front of the goddess.
“Humph, you really don’t know how high the heavens are or how deep the earth is!” The goddess looked at Wang Ye who suddenly appeared in front of her, with a mocking smile on her lips, and watched him coldly, “Are you overestimating your own abilities? Let’s see for ourselves!”
Wang Ye swung his sword, the sword flower flashed, and then he gripped the hilt tightly and stabbed the goddess straight in the chest.
On the other hand, the Observatory's team, led by the village guard, managed to escape from Fengmen Village safely despite being closely pursued by the ghosts of villagers led by the high priest.
As soon as they left Fengmen Village, the two team members patted their chests, still feeling terrified. The goddess's thick resentment, every move affected the yin energy of the entire Fengmen Village. If they confronted her head-on without preparation, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Team Leader Liu? Why did you come out?" Chen Shu's puzzled voice suddenly sounded.
Liu An looked in the direction of the voice and saw Chen Shu and the people from the security department guarding the village monument, all of them with serious expressions.
"We need to solve the problem of Fengmen Village. It is common to go in and out of Fengmen Village. But what are you doing here, Team Leader Chen?" Liu An said with dissatisfaction. Obviously, this case has been handed over to the Astronomy Bureau, but the Security Department is still stubbornly accompanying the people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau to figure out the matter of Fengmen Village.
However, the people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau were all in Fengmen Village, so why were Chen Shu and his men guarding the village monument? Moreover, Liu An keenly discovered that there was another stone tablet standing next to the village monument.
"Team Leader Liu, it's like this. Comrade Wang Ye from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau arranged for us to guard here. Once the original village monument has cracks, a new one will be immediately erected in its place. In order not to delay their work, we will be guarding here all the time..." Chen Shu answered calmly. With such a large stone monument placed here, Liu An and his men could see it as long as they were not blind.
"A new village stele? What is the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau doing?" The village stele represents the history of the village, how can it be easily replaced? Fengmen Village has been abandoned for many years, and this village stele has always stood here and has never been replaced. Now the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau is actually going to replace the village stele with a new one, which shocked Liu An.
Others in the Observatory were also curious about the new village monument and walked over to the monument to take a look. The cinnabar red words "封门" were particularly eye-catching in the night.
The moment they saw the village stele, the people in the Observatory fell silent. They were all experts, and they could tell at a glance that the raw material of the village stele not only had a patronus spell on it, but also had been exposed to the scorching sun for 49 days.
Using something like this as a village monument seemed a bit wasteful to the people at the Astronomical Bureau, but they had to admit that this new village monument did suppress the negative energy here. From now on, the whole mountain will undergo earth-shaking changes because of this village monument.
Using the village monument as the boundary and the Yang Fire Array as the guide, the feng shui of the entire mountain range was changed. The director of the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau was indeed quite capable.
"Team leader, something bad has happened! The eternal lamp lit by the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau suddenly began to shake!" Not far away, a man from the security department rushed out of the tent and shouted at Chen Shu.
Chen Shu was worried about the village stele, so he stayed here personally. He also arranged for team members to guard the eternal lamp, and repeatedly warned them not to let the lamp go out.
Now the village monument has not responded, but the eternal lamp has encountered an accident. Chen Shu is very worried, fearing that he might cause irreversible consequences if he is not careful.
"Team Leader Liu, I'm sorry, I have to deal with things over there first!" Chen Shu looked at Liu An apologetically, then ran towards the tent at full speed.
"I'll go with you!" Liu An followed closely.
Liu An's mouth was faster than his brain. He frowned slightly, but he ran out with Chen Shu. Before leaving, he did not forget to tell his men: "Stay here and keep an eye on the changes of the village monument!"
Although Liu An did not finish his words, everyone in the Observatory understood that he wanted them to guard the village monument well and respond immediately if any situation arose.
However, they ran out, but the people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau had not made any move. What were they doing inside? Why did the original village monument have cracks? Everyone was full of doubts.
The people from the Security Department said that there was a problem with the Ever-Bright Lantern, which meant that the people from the Nine-Gate Fengshui Bureau had encountered trouble in Yinfengmen Village. The village guards rushed out with the people from the Stargazing Bureau, while the people from the Nine-Gate Fengshui Bureau faced the vengeful spirits head-on.
The people in the Star Observation Bureau believed that with the ability of the Nine Gates Fengshui Bureau, it should not be a problem for them to escape unscathed. But they have not come out yet, and the people in the Security Department are still full of confidence in them, believing that the village monument will really have cracks.
But how could such a good village monument have cracks for no reason? Unless the people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau did something in the village, it led to this situation.
Liu An and Chen Shu had already arrived at the tent where the bodies of the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau were placed. Liu An saw at a glance that the candlelight of the eternal lamp flickered and swayed violently, and there was not a breath of wind in the tent.
"Team leader Liu, what should we do? Comrade Wang Ye said that they can only wake up if the eternal lamp is on. If the eternal lamp goes out, their souls will never come back." Chen Shu asked anxiously, like a headless fly.
He had already run to the eternal lamp, trying to block the wind that was blowing the flame, but found that there was no wind at all.
"Team Leader Chen, don't be impatient, let me take a look first!" said Liu An.
The swing of the eternal lamp became more and more intense, and Liu An's heart was hanging. He didn't know what happened in Yinfengmen Village, but it was obvious that the people of Jiumen Fengshui Bureau were in danger. A black mist quietly approached the eternal lamp, trying to extinguish it. Liu An acted decisively, pinched his fingers and cast a spell, a ray of light flashed, and the black mist was dispelled.
He walked to the eternal lamp, looked at the light that had temporarily returned to calm, and knew that this was just the beginning. Before the people from the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau woke up, the black fog would continue to harass the eternal lamp in an attempt to extinguish it.
Chen Shu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the weight on his heart finally fell to the ground. Fortunately, Liu An was there, otherwise he really had no confidence in protecting these eternal lights.
"Team Leader Chen, take your men to guard the village monument first. I'll be here, I'll protect the eternal lamp and wait for the people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau to wake up." Liu An said solemnly.
The people from the Stargazing Bureau have come out. Now Yinfengmen Village is the battlefield between the Nine Gates Fengshui Bureau and the goddess. Using the broken village monument as a signal and replacing it with a new village monument can further weaken the power of the goddess. This time, the Stargazing Bureau is one step behind.
Chen Shu did not hesitate when he heard Liu An's words. He knew Liu An's strength. If even he could not protect the Ever-Bright Lamp, there was no point for him to stay here. He turned around and left without saying a word, heading straight for the village monument.
The people at the stargazing office didn't dare to blink, staring at the village monument, afraid of missing the best opportunity. They didn't know how long they had been waiting. The mountain was freezing cold in the early morning, and the cold wind was blowing. They rubbed their hands, shivering all over, and could even clearly feel the dew on their hair. It was almost dawn.
There was a light "crack" sound, which was particularly clear in the silent night. Everyone's eyes were cast on the village monument. They saw a crack in the middle of the village monument from top to bottom.
"Wow, the village monument is really cracked!" Someone couldn't help but sigh in the darkness.
"Quick! Put up the new village monument!" This exclamation woke up the others. Chen Shu shouted loudly, fearing that if his voice was too soft, it would slow down everyone's actions and waste time.
As he spoke, he rushed to the village monument. The man holding the shovel quickly dug a hole, removed the cracked village monument, and prepared to erect a new one.
They didn't expect that there was no accident when they moved the original village monument, but when they erected the new village monument, it seemed as if there was an invisible barrier blocking them and they were unable to bury the new village monument properly.
Seeing the village monument really cracked, the people in the Star Observation Bureau showed disbelief. But when they found that the people in the Security Department could not complete the task assigned by the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau alone, the people in the Star Observation Bureau looked at each other and also helped.
With the help of the Astronomical Observatory, the Xincun Monument was finally erected. Strangely, the moment the Xincun Monument was erected, the howling wind suddenly disappeared.
Not only did the people in the Observatory clearly feel that the surrounding negative energy was retreating back to Fengmen Village, but even the people in the safe place felt refreshed and relaxed, no longer feeling as if something was pressing down on them and making it hard to breathe as before.
Liu An didn't know that the village monument had been erected. He just dispersed the black fog around the eternal lamp again and again to ensure that the eternal lamp was not affected. He glanced at his watch and it was already 3:55 in the morning. It was almost dawn. After the cock crowed, if the people of the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau still couldn't return to their bodies, then he would be powerless.
In Yinfengmen Village, Wang Ye and his friends had no idea what was happening outside.
The others were close to their physical limits, but Wang Ye decided to fight the goddess directly. The goddess didn't take Wang Ye seriously at all, after all, the entire Fengmen Village was under her control. Unless Wang Ye and his men could eliminate the resentment in Fengmen Village and cut off the source of the goddess's power, her strength would still be strong. The goddess herself was a resentful spirit, so it was undoubtedly unwise to fight her in Yinfengmen Village.
Wang Ye's goal was not high, he only needed to hurt the goddess a little. The goddess extended her hand contemptuously, lightly touched, and a red sedan appeared out of thin air and landed in front of Wang Ye. The high priest walked out of the sedan in a wedding robe.
The blue array under his feet gradually expanded, and Wang Ye's figure shuttled through it until the array spread to the feet of the goddess. In an instant, Wang Ye appeared behind the goddess, with a long sword in his hand, pointing directly at the goddess' back. When the tip of the sword was less than a centimeter away from the goddess' back, the goddess suddenly pounced forward, and the high priest instantly moved behind the goddess and blocked the fatal blow.
With a "puff", Wang Ye's sword pierced the body of the high priest. Unlike the high priest and the goddess, the other villagers in Fengmen Village were only left with souls, while they retained their bodies, although they were just corpses.
The light in the high priest's eyes faded, and his body fell backwards. As the goddess's puppet, the goddess knew clearly what happened to the high priest even though she didn't look back.
The goddess continued to move forward without looking back. The king also shouted loudly: "Goddess, don't you want to know the expression of the high priest before he died?" His tone was full of persistence.
The goddess paused, smiled and replied, "No!" At this moment, a light blue dagger pierced her chest. The goddess looked down in surprise and saw a dagger stuck in her chest. She looked up and found Feng Baobao had appeared in front of her without knowing when, looking at her expressionlessly.
Feng Baobao raised her hand slightly, and the dagger Okamoto Zero One Zero One was immediately pulled out from the goddess' chest and flew back into her hand. "Mission accomplished, let's retreat first!" Feng Baobao shouted, and Wang Ye's figure disappeared immediately, and instantly appeared beside her, holding her hand, and the two disappeared together.
When they reappeared, they had returned to the side of Fatty and the others. The moment the goddess was injured, cracks appeared on the village monument. After the new village monument was erected, the surrounding resentment and yin energy rushed towards the goddess' body.
After walking a few steps, the people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau saw the village monument and the crowd nearby. Seeing the people from the Stargazing Bureau there, they immediately understood that it was the Stargazing Bureau that took action at the critical moment. Otherwise, the new village monument outside would not be able to stand up quickly, and the eternal lamp would not be stable. They might really be in danger.
Especially when the goddess's resentment spread and enveloped the entire Fengmen Village, even if Wang Ye and Feng Baobao cooperated well, they would not be able to maintain stability due to the threat to the eternal lamp, resulting in the failure of the operation.
From the beginning, when Wang Ye stepped forward, the goddess had already fallen into their trap. Feng Baobao was the one who actually attacked the goddess, and only she could hurt her without the goddess noticing.
The people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau smiled faintly, and their spirits gradually dissipated. The cock crowed three times, and the eternal lamp went out naturally, and the five people lying on the air cushion woke up.
Wang Ye sat up and saw Liu An sitting cross-legged. Liu An was the only one in the tent besides them. No one else could protect the eternal lamp except Liu An.
"Team Leader Liu, thank you for your help this time. We at the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau will remember this favor. If Team Leader Liu is in danger in the future, we will definitely help him!" The fat man walked in front and said sincerely to Liu An. He swore that next time, they must help the Astronomy Bureau.
It felt a little awkward to hear these words of thanks coming from the fat man. Liu An waved his hand, not seeming to take it to heart. In his opinion, the people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau were indeed quite capable, but they were from a different background after all, so it would be good if they didn't cause trouble for the Stargazing Bureau. It was almost impossible to expect them to save his life. (End of this chapter)
