Soon, the entire land collapsed, and even the big tree next to the small temple fell down in an instant.
When the tree fell, the small temple was also smashed, tiles were broken into pieces all over the ground, and the body of the Hu Shi Gong was also covered with debris.
"Oh, we younger generations are truly guilty. We wanted to dig up a tree a while ago, so we dug a hole in advance to reserve a spot. We never expected the ground to sink, causing the tree to fall. We are truly guilty of disturbing Mr. Zhou..."
Zhou Kao was fine after hearing the brothers talking, but Hu Shigong was shocked.
"What?! They dug it up a while ago?!"
Hu Shigong was shocked and hurried to check the ground. It would have been better if he hadn't checked. But when he went down, he found that the ground was empty with only a cave.
Obviously, the goblin inside ran away early.
"What a terrible thing! That golden snake demon actually escaped!!"
Hu Shi Gong was beating his chest and stamping his feet with a sad face. He had been ordered to suppress the monster for five hundred years, and it had already been three hundred and eighty years, but now the suppressed monster had escaped!
There were still more than a hundred years of leisure time, and now it’s gone.
In the dim light, Hu Taigong saw his incense and offerings moving away from him.
It's really hard to guard against.
"Ok?"
Zhou Kao heard the cries of Hu Shigong, and his pupils shrank suddenly. He suddenly remembered the abnormal behavior of these "filial sons and grandsons".
I thought to myself: My parents are still alive, but I'm still trying to divide the family property. This doesn't seem like something a serious scholar should do.
Zhou Kao still trusted the teaching quality of the academy. Under normal circumstances, he would not produce such unfilial descendants.
What’s more, there are seven of them in a row, and they all happen to be from the same family.
Well, there is only one truth.
I have an idea in my mind.
So Zhou Kao walked on the broken tiles to the collapsed small temple and held on to the huge rock exposed on the ground.
"Gourd Stone Lord,"
He tapped the stone surface with his fingers, and a dull sound echoed.
"Have these brothers always been so petty and hostile to each other?
"How is that possible! This Shi Family Villa is a blessed land. Not only is it blessed with natural beauty, but it's also blessed with outstanding people. These seven brothers are known for being filial sons and sisters, and they are well-known in Youshi County for their kindness and respect for each other."
The stubborn rock suddenly trembled, and a few pieces of gravel fell down.
The old voice was filled with sorrow.
"Last year on Double Ninth Festival, they washed their father's feet together in the ancestral hall."
"So... is this a drastic change in temperament?"
Hu Taigong recalled carefully.
"Just a few days ago!
A few drops of crystal clear water seeped out from the cracks in the rocks, like an old man shedding tears.
"Over the sweetness or saltiness of a bowl of sesame paste, they even argued over the division of their ancestral property."
"Well……"
Zhou Kao nodded and immediately had an idea.
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.
A happy family suddenly broke up. Is this what a normal person would do?
And now it just so happens that the golden snake demon suppressed by Hu Shigong has also escaped, so there must be some tricks involved.
Zhou Kao then asked, "What's the relationship between the Golden Snake Spirit and Hu Shi Gong like on a daily basis?"
"I'm suppressing it, so how can I have a good tone? I just curse it day and night and slander it..."
Hearing Hu Taigong's dissatisfaction, Zhou Kao had an idea in mind.
"That's appropriate."
"Oh my! Mr. Zhou, how can you still say it's okay when such a terrible thing is about to happen?"
"Mr. Hu Shi, you are so anxious that you are confused. Haven't you ever considered that the drastic change in the temperaments of these seven brothers is due to the Golden Snake Demon?"
"Uh, this..."
Yes, Hu Taigong still looked down on that long worm. Where did he get the means to deceive people? Relying on that broken family heirloom bag of treasures?
Zhou Kaodao,
"If it doesn't have this ability, then~? The second one is pulling the air wheel and pulling the wings and pulling the wheel."
Zhou Kao sneered and turned his gaze to the faint shadow of the mountain in the darkness in the distance.
"But don't forget, wasn't Taishan Saburo, the man you met on the road, recruiting talented individuals? Others could have come to help him out of this predicament.
Is it okay to put all the blame on a bad person who is doing something else?
This is not good.
But Taishan Sanlang is now a big demon who does no good things, and he is the kind of demon that gathers people and is suspected of rebelling.
The Golden Snake Demon is also a monster, and it escaped at this critical moment. Let's first (three) four 0 (seven) 亻尔e4r8 consider them guilty, and they are in collusion with each other.
Hu Taigong also looked suspicious: "Now that Mr. Zhou said that..."
You know what, it makes quite some sense.
Judging from Taishan Saburo's actions, he doesn't seem to be a good person no matter how you look at it.
He stirs up trouble and looks for trouble. It is obvious that he is a second-generation rich man who bullies others and bullies men and women by taking advantage of his power.
Even though he had been away from Mount Tai for many years, he had heard of this kid's bad reputation.
I didn't think much about it before, but Hu Taigong just looked down on the long worm that could only rely on the protection of its ancestors.
He really doesn't have the ability.
“That’s true.”
Zhou Kao patted the handle of his knife and pointed at the brothers from Shijia Villa.
"Gourd Master, look at them again. You've clearly revealed your true form, yet they're not surprised at all. Old Master, please don't tell me you only appear in the village on weekdays."
"How is this possible!"
This is just like the gods of the land. If they appeared every day, there would be no sense of distance between them and people would respect them less.
Without faith, there will be less incense.
Indeed, he showed up in his true form, but the people in Shijia Villa were not surprised at all.
This is too much like the performance of a confused mind.
This Taishan Sanlang is such a bad guy. He disrupted Hu Taigong's job and made a mess of the farm where Hu Taigong grew up.
It would be no big deal if the monster ran away, he could suppress it himself, but it also caused chaos in the home of the little guy he had watched grow up, which made Hu Taigong very angry.
It's really annoying.
Except for a heartless tough guy like Zhou Kao, ordinary people don't even dare to eat the meat of a killed black fish monster. Now, look what happens, even with the monster in front of them, they are still making a noise.
"It seems that this Taishan Saburo is going to do great things."
It is estimated that this is a big monster with a great background.
There is only a wall between monsters and gods.
Even the descendants of the legendary Emperor of Heaven and the ancestor of mankind may become ferocious gods and evil beasts.
Not to mention the stories Zhou Kao had heard since he was a child after traveling through time, even after he started studying, the teachers from the academy would go out to help him from time to time.
How can I help?
To help colleagues from other places to enthrone a spiritual animal or auspicious animal as a local god, one needs to write an article, and the four-six parallel sentences must be used in a flourish to package the "auspiciousness" well.
If the packaging fails... then it is an obscene worship and should be eradicated immediately.
Zhou Kao thought again of the evil god that Zuo Shandiao had worshipped a while ago.
So Zhou Kao just chopped it off right away.
Even though Zhou Kao didn't ask anything and didn't know anything.
As for Taishan Sanlang, just by listening to his name, you can tell that he has a close relationship with some great god in Taishan.
Otherwise, how could he offend the Yellow River Goddess Bingyi and still live so freely.
"Yu Niang, do you know what methods are used to disrupt people's minds?"
"That's a lot..."
Chapter 41 Chapter 41 Life is not easy, Taigong sells his art
There is a mountain in the deep mountains and old forests called "Lotus Peak", also called "Green Lotus Peak". It is part of Youshi County and is a treasure land with rich resources.
There is water hidden in the stone, wood grows in the water, and wood contains fire, which makes the strong man who robbed this place very satisfied.
The scenery in the mountains is not what ordinary people can see. The peaks are covered with fog, and the sea of clouds is surging. From time to time, birds, beasts and ghosts are parading in the wind, looking very majestic.
On the top of the mountain, a banquet was being held in a palace called Gelu Cave. Various demons gathered there, making it very lively.
There were monsters transformed from birds, beasts, fish and insects, as well as demons from flowers, plants and trees. As for ghosts, goblins, yakshas and demons, they also gathered together, big and small.
The entire hall was filled with a sinister aura, yet it seemed so cheerful.
"King Bing! When I take over Shijia Villa, I will definitely build a temple for you!
It must be a thousand times better than that bald idiot!!!
I will also offer sacrifices of cattle, sheep and humans to the king every day, and burn the incense to the highest level.
It's a place of great feng shui, blessed by the Yellow River for three hundred years. It still has abundant harvests and harmonious neighborhoods. It's truly a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery. It would be perfect to use it to build a palace for the king..."
There was a male monster with peach blossom eyes, a pointed face, a pointed mouth and shrunken cheeks, who spoke in a flattering manner.
He was wearing armor and had a snake tail on his lower body. His big eyes, which took up half of his face, kept rolling around while he spoke.
Okay, it’s a little fairy boy.
"Holalalalala hahahahahaha...Alright! Commander Jin, if you take over the Shi Family Villa, I will appoint you as the General of the Five Poisons of Youshi and grant you a Seven-Star Immortal Pill!"
"I am willing to go through fire and water for the king, no matter what!"
“Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha…
As the saying goes, a wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. This king only selects talented individuals. If you all respond, why should we worry about not accomplishing our great cause?!"
The palace master spoke with a smug tone, his smile extremely arrogant, but suddenly remembered something and slammed the wine glass in his hand onto the table. "How dare that scholar from Beiguo County ruin my good deeds and kill my beloved general! He even smashed my statue, delaying my deification plan again."
After saying this, the demon king sitting high up in the palace became melancholy again:
“This king originally came here to seize treasures.
Without that treasure, transporting food and fodder would be a difficult task. "Now, I have captured thousands of people from the Queen Bingyi's ceremonial guard, but I still can't find the treasure. Could it be that it was left behind in the human world?"
Seeing that the demon king's interest suddenly declined, a toad spirit stood up, holding a steel fork.
He shouted loudly, "Your Majesty! I heard that the scholar from Beiguo County is sending a spirit to the East China Sea. Could it be that the spirit is also from the Yellow River? The treasure is on that spirit?"
"Um?!"
The demon king's eyes suddenly widened. Originally, his image was blurry, and no demon in the palace could see his true form.
But at this moment, his true form was vaguely revealed. In a vortex of black flames, a huge arm as muscular as white jade appeared, clutching a wine glass.
The wine glass was actually not a wine glass, but a five-foot-wide wine jar.
The pressure emanating from just one arm silenced the entire palace. The foreign demons in the palace, even the python monsters, were not as thick as this arm. If their true bodies were revealed, how huge would they be?
It’s definitely not shorter than a little giant like Kaido.
"Commander Toad, are you serious?!!!"
The demon king's voice stunned half of the demons on the spot. Those with weak strength could not withstand the momentum of such a monstrous demon.
The overwhelming demonic energy suppressed all ghosts and monsters to the point that they were about to lose their souls. The birds, beasts, fish and insects that had become spirits instinctively hibernated, pretended to be dead, and fled. For a moment, the demon cave palace, which was already full of demonic energy, became a mess and chaos.
