Just as the woman was about to speak, a flying needle pierced her forehead.
In an instant, the woman fell to the ground, her body turned black, and she was dead.
"not good!"
Fengyun was shocked and saw a man in black on the eaves trying to escape.
He immediately flew after him, only to hear Zhang Jue shout loudly.
"Still want to run? Freeze!"
Zhang Jue recited the incantation silently, and a golden light flew towards the man in black.
The next moment, he entangled the other person.
Suddenly he rolled heavily to the ground.
"Haha, you want to run away after killing someone?"
At this time, the man who had just taken the pill woke up and saw that his wife had died of poisoning.
Just as he was about to fight to the death with Feng Yun and the others, he saw a man in black falling down.
He was also stunned for a moment.
Fortunately, his children told him what had happened.
It turned out that his wife was killed by the man in black, so he knew who the other person was.
So he turned around with red eyes and ran towards the man in black.
Unfortunately, he was caught by Zhang Bao.
"Pretending to be dead, huh? Stay here for now."
At this time, the man in black was also dragged into the house by Zhang Jiao.
"Haha, you want to run away after killing someone? Tell me, who are you? Why did you kill someone?"
The man in black raised his neck, his body tilted, and he died.
Now everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
"My Lord, this is not good. He has committed suicide by taking poison."
Fengyun: “…”
Even though he was well-informed, he didn't realize that the other person would commit suicide.
Fortunately, the man took the initiative to speak.
"I know who they are."
"Oh? Then tell me quickly. If you tell the truth, I will forgive your whole family."
"Yes, my family was bewitched by the White Lotus Cult. They told us to spread the plague in the city. Then they told us to inform everyone to go to the White Lotus Village, which is safe."
Fengyun fell into deep thought. In his previous life, he had never heard of the White Lotus Sect and the White Lotus Village.
"What's going on with this White Lotus Sect?"
The man said to Fengyun:
"Sir, I don't know either. They just paid us to do the job this time. But I heard that Bailian Village already has a population of several thousand."
How could a man keep a secret for his deceased wife when he woke up and saw her?
Unfortunately, he didn't know much.
"Do you know where Bailian Village is?"
"I know that. After we finished this time, we were planning to go there as well."
So the other party gave Fengyun a coordinate.
Fengyun checked it carefully and found that this place was not far from Huang County.
It would take half a day to walk there alone.
Since they were no longer of much use, Fengyun asked the yamen runners to come and temporarily detain their family and Aniu's family.
When they arrived at the government office, Liu Dai's men came to inform Fengyun.
"General, Taishi Ci has escaped."
Feng Yun was very puzzled and asked, "Run away? Why did you run away?"
"I don't know."
Since he ran away, Fengyun no longer worried about it.
He instructed: "Tell Liu Dai to take good care of Taishi Ci's mother. He must treat her as his own mother."
Although the subordinates didn't understand why, they nodded and left.
The four of them were going straight to Bailian Village.
They must find out about this village.
…
It only took the four of them half an hour to reach Bailian Village on their mounts. In order not to attract anyone's attention, they all put away their mounts.
Along the way, they saw that many people from Huang County were running directly here.
But his speed was not as fast as theirs, and he was far behind.
They were the first group of people to arrive.
There weren't many people coming at this time, and most of them came alone.
Only the four of them are the most eye-catching.
Especially the three Zhang Jiao brothers, all dressed in Taoist costumes.
The village chief was alarmed when he saw the arrival of such an extraordinary person.
The village chief ran over quickly with his hands raised above his head.
"Welcome everyone, I'm the village chief Bai Hua. I wonder where you are from? Do you have a Taoist name?"
Zhang Jiao did not directly explain his purpose, but chuckled and said:
"The three of us are just casual cultivators, without any Taoist names."
The smile on the face of the village chief Bai Hua faded a lot, and he asked again:
"Are you coming to Bailian Village to settle down permanently?"
"Let's first take a look at Bailian Village and see if it has a future. If it doesn't, we'll just stay for a while and then leave."
Although the village chief is not as enthusiastic as before, they are still talented after all.
If you can stay, you should of course stay.
"I'm sorry, everyone. We, Bailian Village, are nominally a village, but in reality, we are the headquarters of the White Lotus Sect. I wonder if you are familiar with our White Lotus Sect?"
Zhang Jue shook his head.
Seeing that even the White Lotus Sect didn’t know about it, the village chief started to show off again.
"Since you don't know, please forgive me for introducing it first."
The village chief cleared his throat and continued:
"Speaking of the White Lotus Sect, it can be traced back to our great-grandfather slaying the white snake."
At this time, Zhang Liang suddenly interrupted:
"Your White Lotus Sect isn't that the White Snake, right?"
“Cough cough cough!”
Zhang Liang’s words almost made the village chief faint.
"Not really. After Emperor Gaozu killed the white snake, its soul was taken away by Emperor Gaozu's sword."
"And then? Could it be that the sword transformed into a human and became your first leader?"
The village chief immediately rolled his eyes at Zhang Liang.
"Please listen to me. Our first leader was originally just an ordinary farmer. When our great-grandfather slew the white snake, he secretly hid nearby. Only after our great-grandfather left did our leader emerge and carry the white snake's body away. After taking the white snake meat, our leader absorbed the white snake's spiritual energy and suddenly realized its power. His magical powers subsequently reached a peak. And our White Lotus Sect was born."
"Since your leader is so powerful, why haven't we heard of him?"
The village chief sneered:
"You don't understand this. Our leader is a hermit. He doesn't want to be known by the world, so he has been quietly doing good things for the people."
Feng Yun heard that this guy was probably bragging, or perhaps he was not bragging but was brainwashed by the White Lotus Sect.
He did not intend to refute, but asked:
"So should I join the village or the White Lotus?"
The village chief glanced at Fengyun and saw that he was a player, and said contemptuously:
"There are strict requirements for joining our village. Only the three of them are barely qualified to join."
What he meant was that Fengyun should not even think about joining the village.
Then he changed the subject and said:
"But we in the White Lotus Sect welcome you to join us."
"Then what are the benefits of joining the White Lotus?"
"Young people, you only care about benefits. You should have a spirit of dedication at such a young age. As the saying goes, I am for everyone, and everyone is for me. If you don't give, how can others be good to you?"
