Chapter 128 The evil god's blood feud is deep in the earth. The dark and unlucky aura continues...
Deep in the earth.
The dark and bad air continued to gather. Whole pieces of bad luck, resentment, hatred, etc. made everything become gloomy. The aura drifted and diffused from countless creatures, and finally gathered into the depths of the earth as if attracted by something, forming dark clusters of black air.
A ball of bad luck kept gathering, and gradually a trace of strange power appeared. The strange power was still growing, and slowly the ball began to take shape. First, there was a long tail, similar to a snake. The scales on the tail were very rough, and the same khaki color as the earth. However, this khaki color made people feel upset and confused when they saw it.
The ball of strange power seemed to be shaping a human figure, from the tail to the human figure on top. When the khaki strange power dissipated, what was revealed was a face on the top. It was a face that was both beautiful and ugly. To be precise, half of it was a beautiful human face and the other half was more like a face twisted by a snake. It was very disgusting, and the eyes of this face were tightly closed.
The last trace of khaki bad luck disappeared, the eyelids of the huge monster moved slightly, and then slowly opened its eyes.
From the moment he opened his eyes, the temperature of the cave suddenly rose a lot, just like being exposed to the scorching sun, and the moisture around him was constantly disappearing.
This is none other than the famous evil god - Mother of Drought.
As soon as the Great Drought Mother opened her eyes, countless rustling sounds were heard in this huge and intricate cave, as if countless reptiles were crawling non-stop.
After a while, many snake-men with hideous faces and earth-yellow bodies appeared in the cave. When they saw their mother goddess waking up, they bowed their heads respectfully, saying nothing, and quietly waited for the mother goddess's orders.
The Great Drought Mother paid no attention to her offspring. When she woke up from a long sleep, she immediately realized her instinct. The huge snake man raised his head, and his eyes full of brutality and cruelty looked straight at a certain place. There, he felt an instinctive disgust.
Which place must He destroy?
Drought will haunt those damn ants all the time.
The great drought mother hovered her upper body, uttered a signal softly, and a low hissing sound was heard in the cave.
As soon as the voice came out, the snakemen in the cave seemed to have received some orders. They raised their upper bodies, spit out their tongues into the air, and then rode on yellow clouds and disappeared on the spot.
In the wilderness.
I don’t know how much time passed.
Balls of yellow were in the clouds, flying in the air, riding on the yellow clouds. On the ground, the original green color of the wilderness had faded into patches of ominous yellow, and the grass stems were quickly drying up and falling.
On the ground, a huge snake-man was crawling slowly on the withered and yellow land. Countless yellow clouds accompanied Him. Countless dry air came out with every breath He took, merging with the yellow clouds driven by the snake men in the sky.
The strange beasts sensed something was wrong as soon as the drought spread, and they tried their best to disappear from the spot. Only small animals that were unable to dodge were left in the grass. As they did not run fast enough, a few of them were swept away by the ominous yellow color. The next moment, all their flesh and blood disappeared, and only a few dry bones were left.
The little bit of vitality turned into bad luck that permeated the air and became part of the yellow cloud.
Suddenly, the giant snake man stopped moving, and its huge snake tail coiled up. He raised his head, looked towards a certain place, and gently spit out his long tongue.
The snakemen seemed to have received news and all looked in the direction where the Great Drought Mother was looking.
Yellow clouds gradually spread in this direction.
Not far away.
Maple Rock Village
Next to a big rock at the entrance of the village, there is a huge maple tree near the big rock. It is still early autumn and the leaves of the maple tree are already half red, so Fengyan Village got its name.
The busy farming season is approaching in Fengyan Village. Almost all villagers stay in the village and no one runs around, just waiting for the coming autumn harvest. The old people look at the children playing at the entrance of the village with smiles on their faces.
The harvest in the fields is good this year, and the food rations for next year are almost enough. The young people in the village will also have the opportunity to travel around. If they are lucky enough to find a strange plant, that would be even more amazing. What if they can find a caravan that specializes in buying strange food? By then, there might be a few more strange masters in the village.
The old man was smiling as he imagined the future, and for a moment, the wrinkles on his face disappeared a lot.
Other people near the village entrance couldn't help but smile when they looked at the old people and children at the entrance. Although the world was difficult, their village was doing pretty well. It was not as good as those villages with evildoers, but it was definitely better than some ordinary villages. The old people and children could all survive and would not starve to death. They were already very satisfied.
"Village chief, are we going to organize a trip up the mountain to look for strange plants this year?" A village woman not far away loudly asked a smiling old man at the entrance of the village.
"Of course. The harvest is good this year. The extra time allows us to search longer and find more strange plants. This is the rule passed down from our ancestors." The old man in the middle of the crowd replied as a matter of course.
The old village chief was about to say something. He said that young people nowadays think too much but don’t see far ahead. Looking for strange plants is not for themselves but for their future generations so that they don’t have to dig for food in the fields all their lives.
"Village, village chief, behind you..." Before the village chief could speak, the village woman who had just spoken not far away stared wide-eyed and looked straight behind the village chief with horror on her face, as if she had seen the most terrifying thing in the world, and she stuttered when she spoke.
The village chief was stunned, not understanding why the daughter-in-law of the Li family couldn't even speak clearly.
The old village chief subconsciously turned his head and looked in the direction where Li's wife had just looked. The green wilderness behind him had turned yellow at some point, and the yellow was still spreading. The yellow clouds in the sky were sweeping with a terrifying heat, and from time to time, monsters with snake bodies and human heads appeared and disappeared behind the yellow clouds.
What attracted the most attention was the giant snake man standing between heaven and earth, his snake tail coiled on the ground, his huge twisted head slightly lowered, looking towards the direction of Fengyan Village.
"......This, this is..." The old village chief recognized the identity of the huge snake man the moment he saw him. In this world, almost all the villagers who survived knew the identities of several popular evil gods. Especially the evil gods who affected the harvest and had unpredictable tempers were gods that every old farmer knew well.
"Mother of Drought!" The old village chief uttered the name of the deity with trembling voice.
The Great Drought Mother narrowed her eyes and looked towards the small village not far away. When she passed by, she felt the annoying vitality and the annoying excitement of harvest. All of this made her feel disgusted. Coincidentally, she had just woken up from a deep sleep and needed some blood to restore her strength.
The Great Drought Mother slowly walked towards the vicinity of Fengyan Village. It seemed slow, but in fact, her speed was very fast. Each move could cover several miles. Ominous yellow clouds were entwined around Her. The wind blew gently, and the yellow clouds pounced on the people of Fengyan Village like wolves and tigers.
The old village chief turned his head tremblingly, and uttered a few words with all his might, saying: "Hurry, run!" He almost subconsciously stood in front of the children with his back to the big drought mother not far away.
It’s a pity that ordinary people have limited strength, and they can’t even stop the speed of the yellow clouds a little bit. The next moment, countless ominous yellow clouds appeared above Fengyan Village. The snake man’s hideous and shrill laughter sounded in the air, and the yellow clouds sank down, covering the entire Fengyan Village.
All adults and children could not escape the pursuit of the yellow cloud. After a series of muffled cries, the yellow cloud swept up flesh and blood and flew towards the unwilling Mother of Drought, leaving only a pile of white bones lying on the spot.
This was the last scene the old village chief saw. His angry eyes refused to close for a long time, and then yellow clouds swept over.
A dim darkness.
After the yellow clouds swept in, the originally vibrant little village became a completely deserted village, without any breath of life. Even the green grass on the ground turned yellow, and the big maple tree at the entrance of the village completely withered, its leaves fell off, and there was no life at the roots.
The Great Drought Mother devoured the flesh and blood in the yellow cloud slowly, until the last bite of flesh and blood mixed with bad luck disappeared in her mouth. She slowly spat out her tongue, a hint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes. This tasted good.
His strength also recovered a little.
The huge snake man didn't even glance at the dilapidated village behind him. The dilapidated village no longer exuded vitality. Instead, it was replaced by a gray-black gloomy aura that continued to spread from the sky above the village.
He walked slowly towards a place where he felt.
When this village was also destroyed, the barrenness and yellowness of the wilderness had already spread to a certain extent.
Almost all the merchants from Shizhu Village who lived near this area felt uncomfortable.
The merchants of Shizhu Village are different. When all forces educate their younger generations about the merchants of Shizhu Village, most of them say that they can arrive as soon as the disaster is over, and sometimes even earlier. They will also save the villages in distress. In fact, this is also because of the different bloodlines of the merchants of Shizhu Village.
Zhu Hui was also not far away from this wilderness. It would be more accurate to say that this wilderness was originally his trading area. The moment Fengyan Village disappeared, Zhu Hui suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of Fengyan Village.
The red and white and green gray behind the red and gray also react differently.
Lu Hui was stunned. He looked straight in the direction of Fengyan Village with his pupils shrinking, as if he sensed something extremely terrifying. Then, he subconsciously hid behind Zhu Hui, trembling.
Zhu Bai was older than Lu Hui and behaved better. He could barely move close to Zhu Hui, stretched out his hand and pulled Zhu Hui's sleeve, saying, "Is that the evil god, Zhu Hui?"
The premise is to ignore the slightly trembling hands of the red and white boy hidden behind his back. It's not that he is not afraid, he just learned to hide his fear.
The blood of the merchants in Shizhu Village is too special. They can sense disasters in a nearby place. Some of them with stronger blood will take the initiative to resolve them. This is the reason why Shizhu Village ran around the entire continent in the beginning. However, they ate a lot and their farming skills were poor, so they had to learn how to trade in order to feed themselves.
Unexpectedly, the current merchants in Shizhu Village have made their business reputation even more famous than the original disaster awareness.
It was also the first time for the two young boys, Zhu Bai and Lu Hui, to feel the terror of the evil god at close range. They had lived in Shizhu Village since they were young, and the ancestral spirits in the village protected them. Even if there was an evil god outside, they would not be able to sense it without the ancestral spirits' barrier. Besides, there were so many masters in Shizhu Village, and it was not the turn of these little kids to go out and face it.
In addition, the Shizhu Village residents' response to disasters also depends on the distance. The closer the distance, the clearer the response, and the farther the distance, the weaker the response.
A green-gray reaction is normal.
"Yes." Zhu Hui replied solemnly in a low voice: "The Great Drought Mother has awakened, and now she is going to look for her enemies."
"That village is Fengyan Village. Everything in the village is good, which is exactly what happened. It is the village that the evil god hates the most, so it makes sense that it was destroyed." Zhu Hui said slowly.
Zhu Bai's expression was not too good either. His bloodline was pretty good and he could clearly feel the earth wailing in pain and the innocent dead souls crying resentfully in the air. Zhu Bai could understand why Lu Hui was so scared.
"No, we can't let Him go on. If He attacks Chongshan, I won't have anywhere to cry." Zhu Hui felt that the scope of the drought was still expanding, and his expression became even uglier. He suddenly said, "It's still this annoying evil god. Wait, let me think of a way. We have to call for help."
"Wait, boss, aren't we generally not allowed to take action against evil gods? After all, they are gods born from the earth." Zhu Bai couldn't help but ask Zhu Hui.
"That is the obsession of the older generation. We can't just listen to them. Aren't there people who are more in favor of killing these evil gods? If they can't die, do you think those powerful tricksters would let these things go?" Zhu Hui waved his hand and said decisively.
Don't mention his share of strange food. Zhu Hui finally understood why the elders all mentioned the evil god with disgust. Such a thing born in misfortune was born to die.
Zhu Bai only said it subconsciously and had no intention of objecting at all. When he really felt it, he really hated these evil gods.
"Then who are you looking for?" Zhu Bai couldn't help but ask again.
"Go find Uncle Xue Qi. He has a wide network of contacts and should be able to get some people over here." Zhu Hui said as a matter of course. He had great faith in Uncle Xue Qi's abilities.
Besides, it’s just an evil god. It’s not like his Uncle Xue Qi has killed one before.
The other side.
Chongshan He Village.
The weather in Jinshi Mountains has been very good recently, and experienced elders say that this year will be a year of good harvest.
"The ears of grain are so heavy, I don't know what to say!" Village Chief Qian said with a smile that made his eyes invisible.
The ghost scholar nodded. He thought so too. Thinking of the future harvest scene, his expression couldn't help but relax a lot.
The ghost scholar was in seclusion some time ago.
The two portions of strange food were finally given to him. After he broke through to the Qingyou level, Ye Lu and Xi Mingren guarded him. In order for the ghost scholar to stabilize his cultivation as soon as possible after the breakthrough, Ye Lu even went down the mountain to get some Yangteng fruits from the village.
Fortunately, the result was very good.
The ghost scholar unexpectedly reached the early stage of Qingyou level in one fell swoop. The aura emanating from him became more mellow and harmonious. After eating the Yangteng fruit, his cultivation level also stabilized.
As soon as he came out of seclusion, the ghost scholar came down the mountain to see the village’s harvest.
"Agui, Uncle Qian tells you that our village and Liucao Village have a good harvest this year. Many people think that it is the blessing of the God of Fortune and Wealth, which is why we have such good weather and harvest." Qian Bacun couldn't help but sigh as he spoke.
Not to mention that the offering ceremony to that god only requires a bowl of rice.
