Chapter 1671 Welcome the Empress
"What...what is going on?" Luan Lihui looked at the hell-like scene in front of him, and his whole mind went blank.
"It's Blood Shehuo, also called Zha Kuaihuo. It is one of the types of Shehuo and the most special one. It is most popular in Shaanxi. This folk custom is based on the story of Wu Song from the Water Margin who killed Ximen Qing to avenge Wuhan University. The story is based on the theme, the content is horrific and bloody, and it is very realistic," Yao Shunyu explained in a low voice.
Huang Jun stared at the "corpses" with weird postures, his voice trembling, "So...so these people wore makeup?"
After calming down a little, They also discovered some problems. The blood of these "corpses" was all concentrated on their bodies and faces, and there was almost no blood on the ground. If they were really injured so badly, they might have already flowed into rivers of blood.
"Water Margin, I...I know, but what do these things have to do with each other?" Luan Lihui stared at the strange clothes of these people, colorful and black, and he always felt that these people had other agendas.
Yao, Shun, and Yu only heard some stories from Li Bai about the Blood Society Fire, but now it seems that it is not exactly the same as the Blood Society Fire mentioned by Li Bai. This is called the Blood Lady Society Fire, and it should be Heishui Village. Unique custom.
"Dong..."
Before Yao and Shunyu could think about it, the sudden sound of the bell made his mind tremble.
“Boom…”
"Boom..."
The sound of the bell came from the courtyard where the Zhusheng Empress Temple was built. Huang Junluan Lihui covered his ears tightly, his eyes filled with fear.
After the third ringing of the bell dissipated, all the dressed-up villagers outside the courtyard stopped and knelt down suddenly in the direction of the courtyard door. Veins popped out on their terrifying bloody faces, but There was an expression of extreme piety.
The next second, a very old, but very loud shout came from someone unknown, "Welcoming the Empress!"
The closed black courtyard door slammed. The ground opened, and a team of people with even more bloody and weird makeup appeared. The villagers came out, they walked stiffly, their movements were uniform, their raised faces were grinned, and their eyes were bulging, as if they were imitating the fear and unwillingness that people feel before death. It was indescribable for a while. The air of resentment permeated the air.
What's even more terrifying is what's behind. I see a 5-6 meter tall statue sitting on a specially made huge sedan chair, being carried by a dozen strong villagers and walking slowly out of the yard.
The huge red hijab on the head of the statue is the statue of Empress Injection!
Yao, Shun, and Yu's pupils shrank sharply, no, that's not right, this is not a statue, this is Empress Injection!
Although the outside of the statue is covered with a layer of yellow mud, you can still vaguely see the dark blue skin under the yellow mud. The texture of the skin is very rough, like rhinoceros skin or elephant skin. Full of tiny wrinkles.
Almost immediately, Yao and Shunyu realized that the purpose of these villagers tonight was not just to get out of Heishui Village, they... they actually wanted to carry Empress Zhusheng out too!
No, it should be said that Empress Zhusheng drove the villagers to carry it out of the village, and they all had to leave!
Where is the outside of Blackwater Village? Yao, Shun, and Yu didn’t know, but there might be a passage to the real world. When I think of such a monster coming to the real world, the crisis it will cause is definitely a disaster. Yes, I don’t know how many monsters the Injection Empress’s powerful reproductive ability will create.
Ruined it!
It must be killed!
At least it must not be allowed to leave Heishui Village. At this moment, Yao, Shunyu and Yu also understood why those people tried their best to blow up the bridge.
The distance was closer, and Yao, Shun and Yu could see more clearly. Empress Zhusheng was carried out with her back to them.
Ordinary statues are very particular when entering and leaving the temple. They must be greeted by people, and they must face inward when entering the temple and face outward when leaving the temple. Only in this way can they receive incense in a legitimate manner, but some evil spirits Not only can they not do this, but they also have to cover their faces with cloth, otherwise they will be punished by God.
With a "bang", Empress Zhusheng's huge body hit the beam on the courtyard door. The huge force actually directly collapsed the beam, and then she swayed towards Yao, Shun, and Yu. Three people came.
Luan Lihui and Huang Jun were dumbfounded. They didn't understand why these people brought up the sculpture.
Yao, Shun, and Yu had no intention of explaining to them. If they knew that this was the real Empress Zhusheng, it would only cause unnecessary confusion.
Suddenly, all the villagers present stopped, and then stared blankly at Yao, Shun, and Yu, as if time had stopped at this moment.
Being belatedly, Yao, Shunyu and others immediately imitated the actions of the previous villagers and knelt down. Huang Jun and Luan Lihui also knelt down with their knees weak.
A few seconds later, the team carrying Empress Zhusheng moved again, wandering past Yao, Shun, and Yu. It looked like they were heading towards the Blackwater River. Li Bai and others were in charge. of that bridge.
The villagers who were kneeling outside the backyard where Empress Zhusheng passed over also stood up one after another and followed the team. Yao, Shun, and Yu were also included in the procession.
Yao, Shun, and Yu followed the big sedan chair without saying a word, and when they raised their heads a little, they could see the red hijab of Empress Zhu Sheng.
I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but Yao Shunyu could always feel a pair of cold eyes coming from under the red hijab.
In addition, there is another person sitting in the same posture in front of Empress Zhusheng who is sitting cross-legged. This person is also being carried in a sedan chair. It can be seen that he has a high status and is an old man. No matter how old the old lady was, her eye sockets were horribly sunken, as if someone had dug out her eyeballs, and the green-gray flesh on her face was sagged. If it weren't for the Buddha beads that she kept twisting in her hands, Yao, Shun and Yu would have thought she was a dead person.
The one who can enjoy such treatment in Heishui Village should be the village chief. Yao and Shunyu remembered that Elder Sun once said that the village chief can communicate with Empress Zhusheng and is her envoy in the village.
"Yao...Brother Yao, why do I feel like someone is looking at me all the time?" Huang Jun did not dare to raise his head, and his eyes were nervously observing a small area around him.
"Don't be afraid, it may be a psychological effect." Yao, Shun, and Yu said after a few words of comfort: "It will definitely not be peaceful on the road for a while. When encountering dangers, we will try to dismantle them and build bridges when encountering water. Don't be impulsive because of nervousness." Lost his life.”
"What if... what if we get to the bridge and Sister Li and the others haven't repaired the bridge yet, or... or they simply ran away?" Luan Lihui's voice was very low. He knew that it would not be strange for people to do anything in a life-or-death situation. Before In fact, he planned to follow Li Bai. The women in Heishui Village had a high status. If something happened, Li Bai might be able to block him, but he failed to do so.
Hearing these words, Yao and Shunyu felt angry, and his voice was much harsher, "Just take care of yourself, Li Bai will never abandon us."
In fact, there is a saying Yao, Shun, and Yu didn't say it clearly, so he didn't know whether Li Bai would abandon Huang Jun and Luan Lihui, but she would never abandon herself. (End of this chapter)
