In ancient times, they secretly became gods in the deep mountains.

Chapter 92 The Butcher and the Pig Demon

"Don't worry, I have found a way to save you. Just wait patiently for a while, and I will turn you back when the time is right," Gu Yuexi comforted her.

No one would question her words.

This is an all-powerful goddess!
Outside the protective formation, a cold wind howled and a torrential downpour raged. Inside the formation, a light drizzle washed over the grape-like bodies of the people. Her words brought comfort to them.

Gu Yuexi waited for three days, but no one came to Peach Blossom Village.

She said, "They're really quite vigilant."

She knew that the other party must be aware of the dangers of the Golden Saint Mountains, which was why no one came to harvest the grapes after three days of waiting.

Over the past three days, the people who had turned into grapes have become less anxious, patiently waiting for the Golden Saintess to turn them back.

In their minds, the goddess is a deity, and deities are omnipotent, let alone the Golden Saint Goddess, who is all-powerful and has boundless magical abilities.

She must have a way to turn them back.

Every day, Gou Sheng and his friends would go to the vineyard to talk to their mother and brother, who had turned into grapes. At night, they would return to the small courtyard where a protective array had been set up.

Down the mountain, several oxcarts swayed and wobbled as they arrived at Peach Blossom Village; the drivers were ordinary people.

Seeing the dense vineyards ahead, the newcomers were not surprised; Gu Yuexi realized that their destination was the vineyards.

It seems that the evil person found a few mortals to scout the way.

Gu Yuexi used her power to trap them in place.

"be lost?"

"That's impossible! Peach Blossom Village is right in front of us, and the grape grove that Master mentioned is not far away. How come we seem to have circled the grape grove several times?"

"Alas!" someone sighed, "The master and mistress have done such heinous things. Perhaps we are haunted by the spirits of the dead, which is why we have lost our way."

"Don't talk nonsense. Even though it's just us here, what if there are the master and mistress's people inside? If they find out what you said, they'll definitely eat you alive!"

Through their conversation, Gu Yuexi confirmed that they were indeed sent by the person behind the scenes.

The group ran around the village path several times, as if they were in a maze, and always ended up back at the starting point.

"What should we do? We still can't get into the village. If we can't bring back the grapes, the master and mistress will definitely harm our family."

One of the drivers covered his face and wept bitterly.

“I don’t want to do these heinous things, but my whole family is in the hands of the master and mistress, so I have no choice.”

Gu Yuexi had some things she wanted to know from them, so she reached out and dispelled the illusion.

"Hey—" the drivers exclaimed in surprise, "We...we can get into the village now."

"Let's get to work quickly. Peach Blossom Village is so far from Xin'an Town. If the grapes get stale along the way, the master and mistress might punish us."

The group arrived at the vineyard.

The torrential rain had just stopped, and the grapevines were leisurely basking in the sun when suddenly unfamiliar faces appeared before them. Zhang Youhe's son, Zhang Xiuxuan, immediately asked, "Who are you? Where did you come from? What brings you to our Peach Blossom Village?"

Strangers came to the village, and they hadn't yet turned into grapes like the villagers. Apart from Gou Sheng and his group, these oxcart drivers were obviously outsiders. Zhang Xiuxuan, who had fought for several years, immediately became alert and questioned them.

There were eight drivers in total. As usual, they headed towards the vineyard to pick grapes, when suddenly they heard the grapes start talking...

"what!"

One of the timid drivers immediately screamed.

"Grapes...grapes can talk!"

The drivers were all stunned.

They had never encountered anything so strange before. Although these grapes were transformed from living people, none of the fruits spoke.

"How could this be... how could grapes talk!" "Hmph!" Zhang Xiaoqi sneered, "It seems that our current state has something to do with you! Judging from your appearance, you intend to pick us and transport us away."

"This isn't the first time for you, is it? Otherwise, why aren't you surprised at all by the fact that living people turn into grapes? Unfortunately, you'll be disappointed this time. We have the protection of the Golden Saintess, so we can not only speak but also move around freely!"

A shimmering purple grape leaped onto another vine, then from another vine back to its original spot, before landing steadily.

"what!"

The drivers stared in disbelief, rubbing their eyes. "How could it... jump around like that?"

"Yes, yes, we have the protection of the Golden Saintess, you can't take us away."

"The Golden Saintess is right here. I advise you to leave immediately, or you will suffer the consequences!"

"Leave now, leave now."

You can only hear its presence but not see it; there are countless grapes leaping and jumping on the vines, occasionally flying through the air.

This scene is utterly unbelievable.

"The Golden Saintess?" the coachman asked, bewildered.

"Of course, the Golden Saintess is the mountain spirit of the Golden Saint Mountain Range. She has great supernatural powers and boundless magic. As long as she is here, you few will not be able to take us away at all."

"If you know what's good for you, get lost!"

The rickshaw drivers were at a loss and looked troubled.

If they go back empty-handed, they'll surely be eaten alive by the master and mistress.

Only one coachman asked, "Are there really gods in this world?"

"Of course, our goddess is a divine being born of heaven and earth, with genuine and boundless magical power."

"thump!"

Several coachmen knelt down facing the vineyard.

"Gentlemen, could you please let us see the immortals? We have no other choice!"

Several people began to weep.

The people who had turned into grapes stared at them curiously.

"What business do you have with me?"

A voice that pierced the soul came from Qihuang Mountain, as if every blade of grass and every tree on Qihuang Mountain was speaking. This was incredible.

The drivers stared wide-eyed.

There really are immortals!

The gods have appeared!
"Bang bang bang!" They kowtowed and knelt down, their cries shaking the heavens: "Please, Goddess, save us! We have no choice but to do this. If we do not do as our master and mistress command, they will eat our family members. If this is false, may we be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!"

The drivers were in tears.

"Who are your master and mistress? Where did they learn their evil magic to turn living people into grapes? What is their intention?"

The men cried out, “Your Majesty! Our master’s name is Wang Dagen. He is a butcher in Xin’an Town. His family is very wealthy. The Wang family is a well-known rich family in the town. We were originally the Wang family’s cart drivers who transported pork.”

"The master married the personal maid of the head lady of the Hu family winery in town. They were originally happy and content. Our lady was kind, and the Wang family's butcher shop was thriving..."

"Alas!" The coachman sighed heavily. "I don't know when it started, but our lady began eating raw meat and drinking raw blood. She also learned some kind of sorcery from somewhere, turning living people into fresh fruit. She said that eating fresh fruit made from living people would make her even more beautiful!"

"Unexpectedly, we later discovered that the lady was becoming more and more beautiful. Now she is so beautiful that people dare not look directly at her. When the master found out about this, he not only did not stop the lady from continuing to use sorcery, but also ordered us to transport the fresh fruit that the living people transformed into to the Wang family."

"If we disobey, our families will suffer!"

One of them, pale-faced, said, "One day, I accidentally saw... Madam... her head had turned into a pig's head. I suspect that Madam must have been possessed by a pig demon!"
