Chapter 67 Two-Headed Snake God (New Book, Looking for Sponsorship!)
If Xu Zhong's father had not helped him in the past, Uncle Ma would not have wanted to take on this hot potato.
Who would risk their family at a time like this?
He is not a saint.
Xu Zhong advised: "Uncle Ma, this two-headed snake is not a good thing. You have to think it over. If your village really believes in it, your village will be finished. Today you are asked to offer sacrifices, tomorrow you are asked to offer money, and the day after tomorrow it will come to the village again. Do you think your village can withstand it?"
Uncle Ma looked bitter: "This is all decided by the village chief. What can I do? My ancestors have been from Fengyang Village for generations. How can I go against the village chief?"
"Uncle Ma, you must have heard about the annihilation of the entire Qinghe Village, right?"
Uncle Ma paused and said, "Yes, I have heard about it. That's why I advise you. You have finally escaped. Don't get involved in our village's affairs. Our village is not suitable...you should go to another village."
"No, Uncle Ma, you misunderstood. I have no intention of joining your village. That's what I said to the outside world, but actually..." Xu Zhong moved closer and said in a lower voice, "I have never thought about joining another village. I have already discussed with the villagers that we are going to rebuild Qinghe Village."
"Your village is completely wiped out, how can you rebuild it?" Uncle Ma frowned.
"Almost all the people in our village have died, but we still have a few adults and a dozen children. Most importantly, we have found a real god!" Xu Zhong said with shining eyes, "A real god who does not need human sacrifice and will not harm people at will. As long as we are willing to believe in him, he will be willing to protect our kind-hearted gods."
"Our previous rabbit god was also very kind-hearted. He didn't like to eat humans. He was a vegetarian..." Of course, this was only said to outsiders.
Even if the Rabbit God is a vegetarian, it is still a demon beast, so it will at least have a bite of meat.
But compared to those evil and greedy gods around, the rabbit god is considered good. It can only eat a few people a year, so you have to feed it and not let it starve.
Not as good as the best, but better than the worst.
Originally, Uncle Ma and his people thought that their village was lucky, believing in a not-so-bad belief, but in the end...
As a result, when the two-headed snake god arrived, the rabbit god was swallowed up in one gulp.
well……
Even after investing so much stored food, it still fell into the hands of the two-headed snake god. If they had known this, they should have believed in a more powerful one from the beginning.
Just eat people, as long as food and people can be preserved.
Xu Zhong: "Uncle Ma, your gods are not good. Our mountain gods don't even touch a single human flesh. Not only does he not take it, he also gives us things."
As he said this, he took out a red, flattened fruit from his arms.
"Uncle Ma, try this. This is a specialty given to us by the Mountain God. It's called persimmon. Originally, it should only bear fruit in winter, but we have nothing to eat now, so the Mountain God used his magic power to make the persimmons ripe overnight."
Uncle Ma was stunned, thinking Xu Zhong was fooling him.
"I'm not lying to you. It's all true. Otherwise, how do you think I am so confident in rebuilding our Qinghe Village? It's because we have the protection of the Mountain God. With the Mountain God, we don't have to worry about going hungry or monsters anymore. We just need to farm happily."
Uncle Ma tore a piece of persimmon cake and threw it into his mouth. The unique sweetness of persimmon invaded his mouth and he was silent for a while.
Xu Zhong continued: "Really, I'm not lying to you. In addition to persimmons, we also have sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn... But we don't have much of these things. We turned them into grain seeds and planted them in the fields."
"The mountain god has already given us one season for free, but he can't keep supporting us forever, right? So we still have to farm the land ourselves."
"But the mountain god still takes care of us. These things are not in season, but in order to prevent us from starving, the mountain god adjusted the weather in the village. As long as we plant them, they will grow."
"The mountain god said that we should do this for this year. When we have enough food stored and the winter is over, we will leave according to the normal solar terms in the spring of next year."
"Divine power is used for emergencies. Normally we have to rely on ourselves."
…
Even so, Uncle Ma still found it hard to believe it and always felt that Xu Zhong was fooling him.
Is there such a God in the world?
Not eating people, but helping people?
What divine power is used for emergencies? Isn’t divine power used to “fight monsters” and exploit ordinary people like them?
That night, Uncle Ma slept very uneasily.
He sent Xu Zhong and the other man away before dawn, and told them to take a small path out of the village and not to be discovered.
After touching the "amulet" left to him by Xu Zhong, Uncle Ma hurried home to avoid being discovered by the villagers.
However, as he was about to approach his yard, he heard the screams of his wife and daughter.
"What are you doing?!"
"Mother, mother, help me..."
When I got closer, I saw that it was the village chief's son, who was leading a few young men to pull his daughter.
"What are you doing?!"
Uncle Ma quickly stepped forward to stop the man.
"What for? Master Qin and his men need someone to serve them, and they have taken a fancy to your daughter!" The village chief's son Liu Xinzhi raised his chin slightly, asking Master Ma's family to be more tactful and not delay his work.
Uncle Ma’s face turned pale instantly.
Who is Mr. Qin?
Lord Qin, the messenger of the two-headed snake god, whose full name is Qin Fang.
After the Rabbit God died, it was Master Qin who led his men into their village and took over all affairs of Fengyang Village.
Uncle Ma knew that these gods' messengers were no good, but he still held on to his luck, thinking that the Rabbit God had just died and it shouldn't be that soon.
However, what he didn't expect was that someone had set his eyes on the girl in his family.
Uncle Ma knelt down in front of Liu Xinzhi and begged him to spare his life, saying that he only had one daughter, Ma Ruhua, and that his daughter had already been promised to someone else and would be married in the next few days...
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Liu Xinzhi say: "It's because he hasn't married yet, so he likes your daughter. If your daughter is married, who would like her? Master Qin likes to play with virgins!"
He kicked Uncle Ma away and asked someone to take Ma Ruhua away.
When Ma Zhaotian, the son of Uncle Ma, saw his father being kicked, his eyes turned red and he came over with a hoe in his hand: "Get out! All of you get out..."
Liu Xinzhi is just a small gangster. If he hadn't relied on his father, he would have been driven out of the village by the villagers long ago.
When he saw Ma Zhaotian acting tough, he was so scared that he quickly retreated. The few lackeys he brought with him were also afraid of death, so they followed him.
Liu Xinzhi hid behind them, his legs weak as he shouted, "Ma Zhaotian, what are you doing? I'm telling you, I'm the son of the village chief. If you hurt me, my father will immediately feed your whole family to the snake god. Do you believe it?"
"roll!"
Ma Zhaotian's hoe fell down, and Liu Xinzhi failed to threaten him, so he could only run away in shame with a few of his brothers.
"Ma Zhaotian, just wait for me!"
