Chapter 249 Gongmeishen
"Do you know, Fellow Daoist Ran, what the name of this newly built village is?"
The village leader of Heishan Village did not wait for Old Ran to finish speaking, and said proactively: "This new village is called Gongming Village."
Gongming Village?
Tian Lin, who had been watching coldly, took a sip of tea and said, "If I remember correctly, the old patriarch has a nickname, right? It's called Gongming, right?"
Muramasa nodded and said: "Yes, the old patriarch is called Gongming Zhenren. This Gongming Village was naturally built for the old patriarch."
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
After the village leader opened the door, it was the clan disciples from Heishan Village who came in.
The young man handed over the letter in his hand and said: "This is a letter written by Deacon Wu to Senior Ran. Deacon Wu said that he could not come over because he had something to do."
Old man Ran immediately took the letter, tore open the envelope and read the letterhead.
After reading the letter, he handed it to Muramasa of Heishan Village.
Muramasa took a look at the letter and said: "Deacon Wu asked me to take fellow Taoist Ran to the newly built Gongming Village. This matter is just a piece of cake. When tomorrow dawns, I will naturally take fellow Taoist Ran to Gongming Village."
After several people drank, they said goodbye and left. Old Ran naturally had a worried look on his face.
Early the next morning, a group of people arrived at the so-called Gongming Village.
Although Old Man Ran had time, Gongming Village had already been built.
There are hundreds of houses in such a large village.
There are less than a hundred households in Huilong Village, so these many houses are obviously more than enough to accommodate the people of Huilong Village.
The villagers of Huilong Village who didn't know what was going on were overjoyed. Looking at the built houses and the large and small corpse wells in the village that were already under construction, a group of people excitedly selected the houses and started to settle down.
But Tian Lin, Old Ran and the village chief of Heishan Village went to Gongming Temple to the west.
I saw that the huge temple was empty both inside and outside.
There is a sacred altar in the main hall, but there is a new incense burner on the sacred altar, but there are no statues, stone sculptures or shrines on the altar.
Old man Ran looked at the village chief in confusion, and the village chief of Heishan Village smiled and said: "Don't be anxious, fellow Taoist, the body of the old patriarch will be brought back soon."
The corners of Old Ran's mouth twitched and he asked: "Isn't the body of the old patriarch gone?"
The village chief of Heishan Village smiled and said: "Yes, although the body of the old patriarch ran away, it was hard to leave his hometown, and later ran back.
Now all the zombies under his command have escaped, and the old man has become a wild zombie because he has taken root on the ground, making it difficult for him to join the Xiangxi Sect again.
It happened that the newly built Gongming Village had no gods, so the body of the old patriarch was brought back and worshiped by fellow Taoist Ran and the villagers.
This move will not humiliate the corpse of the old patriarch, but also allow the corpse of the old patriarch to protect Gongming Village. ”
His so-called killing two birds with one stone is not a good thing in the eyes of old man Ran.
At this time, there was a sound of gongs and drums outside. When Tian Lin and Old Man Ran walked out of the temple gate together, the villagers of Huilong Village had already been attracted to the entrance of the village because of the sound of drums.
I saw a mighty scene in the distance, a group of people wearing mourning clothes carrying a sealed red sedan from far to near.
Old man Ran cried and said: "Here, is this the body of the old patriarch?"
Tian Lin glanced at Old Ran, sighed and said: "The Wu family's own old patriarch is unwilling to worship himself, which shows that this 'god' is probably not a righteous god."
Tian Lin saw that Old Ran was so unlucky and did not ridicule him.
You know, when old man Ran was in Yujia Village, he refuted Tian Lin's theory of "righteous god" and "evil god". Now it is clear that Old Ran has an 'evil god' on his side. This evil god is probably stronger than the land god of Huilong Village, but to worship such an evil god, how can the villagers of Huilong Village not cut their flesh?
"Invite the gods into the temple!"
The sedan chair had already arrived at the gate of the temple, led by a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man glanced at Old Ran and said, "Ran Er, quickly call all the villagers in your village to come and worship the gods."
Old man Ran said quickly: "Brother-in-law, I'm going to call someone right now."
When the middle-aged man ran the old man to call someone, Tongtian Lin cupped his hands and said:
"You must be a disciple of the Immortal Sect of the Taoist Sect, right? I don't have the Fallen Yin Pill that I want to buy, but I told the clan about it when I came here.
Because a new clan leader has not yet been elected, a meeting of the elders is needed to open the elixirs in the library. Therefore, I also ask fellow Daoist Tian to wait for two days. ”
Tian Lin said: "Fellow Taoist Wu, you are polite. It is presumptuous for Tian to come here uninvited. It all depends on the Wu family's convenience as to when the elixir can be purchased."
The middle-aged man said no more, but turned to look at the group of villagers gathered outside the temple.
Gongming Temple is huge, just like an ancestral temple.
It's a pity that the people standing in this ancestral temple are not the descendants of Wu Gongming.
But looking at Wu Gongming's red sedan, the evil talismans made of animal skins affixed to the sedan all indicate that the sedan is filled with 'evil ghosts'.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
It also showed that everyone in the Wu family already regarded their old patriarch as an evil ghost. The reason why they were not directly burned and destroyed was simply because they were afraid of violating filial piety and being ridiculed by outsiders.
"Ran Er, you are now the village leader of Gongming Village. From now on, you need to bring the villagers to offer incense to Gongming God every day. And this Gongming Temple must be guarded by Wu Miaozhu at all times."
< br>
After his brother-in-law finished speaking, he made room.
Among the crowd dressed in filial piety, an old man stood up.
The old man rolled his eyes, letting people know that he was not a mummy.
I saw him and old man Ran cupping their hands, and then said: "Ran Cunzheng, from now on you and I will have to help each other."
Old Ran was a little shorter. He knew that he, the village leader, had little say in the temple ceremony.
In other words, although he is the village leader of Gongming Village, the real leader must be the temple minister.
"Wu Miao wishes that God Gongming has been delivered, so Wu will leave first."
The middle-aged man bowed his hands, and then left with a group of people without greeting Old Man Ran, his brother-in-law.
As soon as Old Ran's brother-in-law took the people away, the courtyard of the small temple became brighter.
At this time, the villagers in Huilong Village, together with their elders, glanced at Old Ran standing in front of them in bewilderment, and then at Wu Miaozhu, who was standing with his hands behind his back in front of the main hall, but no one said anything.
But soon, a group of people were attracted by the banging sedan chair on the altar.
The villagers of Huilong Village still don’t know who is inside, but Muramasa from Heishan Village, as well as Old Man Ran and Tian Lin, know that what is inside is a high-quality zombie.
Only a strong Nascent Soul master can subdue such a high-level stalemate.
"Okay, what are you doing standing around here? Kōmyōshin is hungry, why don't you donate blood?"
Wu Miaozhu was obviously used to the commotion in the sedan chair and said something.
Old man Ran was stunned and asked: "What kind of blood should you donate?"
"Of course it's human blood. From now on, you and your descendants will all donate blood to Komyojin - otherwise, what's the use of you?"
