Chapter 123 The Idol Calls the Soul
Lu Nian is a senior high-level mage. Bai Mo knew that if he really made a move, he would not be able to catch his move, so he blocked these attacks.
The space scroll in his hand shone brightly in an instant, expanding into a huge teleportation circle, wrapping Bai Mo and Lingling. At the same time, the silver spear, which had already accumulated half of his total magic energy, drew an arc around him, cut out a brilliant space blade, and flew towards Lu Nian.
The blade of space mercilessly split the controlled military mage in front of him into two parts, traveling through space with undiminished power, and appeared in front of Lu Nian instantly.
Lu Nian's expression changed drastically. He never expected that Bai Mo not only had a space scroll that could be teleported, but also had such a powerful explosive magic tool.
But he was also a military mage who had been wandering between life and death for many years. In an instant, a rock as big as a small mountain rose up from the ground and stood in front of him.
The space blade soon broke open the hill, and the silver light blade continued to slash at Lu Nian. Lu Nian saw that the situation was wrong, and ground waves surged under his feet.
The ground wave took him and moved sideways.
"Poof!"
Blood sprayed and the object fell to the ground.
It was so easy to dodge the blade in space. In an instant, one of Lu Nian's arms was severed by its root.
Blood spurted out, but the arm on the ground was being shattered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Military commander!" Jiang Yi exclaimed eagerly, subconsciously going to pick up Lu Nian's fallen arm when he saw this scene.
Suddenly she let out a cry even more tragic and indignant than if she had broken off her own hand.
“No!”
The other military mages all looked at Lu Nian with sad expressions. The concerned "Military Commander!" was so sincere.
But coupled with their behavior just now, it is so disgusting.
On the grass not far away, a military mage who was still alive looked at this scene.
I don’t know what it feels like.
……
The mountains face each other and are vast and green.
In the directionless mountains, the sounds are also aimless, with wolves howling and apes chirping, among the sounds of nature.
The sound of gongs, drums and suonas was even more noisy, but the demons in the mountains seemed to turn a blind eye to all this and not hear it.
The village chief led the villagers and held a ceremony in front of the only ancestral hall made entirely of stones behind the small village.
“lelelalalelela~~~!”
Syllables of unknown meaning came from his mouth, ancient and mysterious, but none of the people playing gongs and drums behind him or bowing their heads in prayer dared to be disrespectful.
This is a necessary guarantee for them to pray for blessings from the God of Ze and live safely in this dangerous mountain.
A few days ago, a demon came to the door of the village. It had horns on its head and a beard like a sheep. It would often run into the village in the middle of the night and say things that no one could understand.
Although it is not too ugly, it still scares the villagers who have been at peace for a long time. No demon has ever been able to break the blessing of Ze Shen before. The one who came to the village must be a big demon!
Now they are praying with the village chief, precisely because they want to beg the God of Ze in the ancestral hall for more powerful blessings and a way to drive away the weird monster.
Suddenly, I saw the village chief at the entrance of the ancestral hall.
The mysterious brilliance of silver shines. The brilliance is so similar to the color of the legendary Ze Shen.
The villagers suddenly fell to their knees in large numbers, and even the village chief lowered his head and eyebrows, his whole body trembling with excitement, and those who played gongs and drums played louder and louder.
In the peripheral vision of everyone, they saw the silvery light getting brighter and brighter, and finally two figures appeared vaguely in the light.
‘Warriors must be warriors brought by Zeshen who can drive away demons! ’
Everyone shouted in their hearts, and their prayers became more sincere.
As the silver brilliance gradually dimmed, a man wearing blood-clothed clothes, holding a silver spear in his hand, with a face like a crown of jade, and eyes as bright as stars, and the virgins who served him were revealed.
The villagers all looked excited, thinking that this was the warrior who could drive away demons in their minds. The bloody robe was a symbol of power!
Leading Lingling out of the bumpy space passage, Bai Mo looked at the large group of kneeling people in simple clothes in front of him. There were also a few people with flushed faces, who were beating the gongs and drums loudly, and an old man who was shaking back and forth in front of him, looking like he might faint at any moment.
Blinking his eyes inexplicably, he and Lingling looked at each other, and both of them could see the confusion in the other's eyes.
I looked back again and saw a simple stone temple with two trembling candles lit inside. The skylight from outside came in and illuminated a statue on the altar in the middle of the temple.
The statue seems to be a beast with wolf hooves. There is nothing visible on the body, but it has a head that looks like a goat and a cat. There is a pair of horns and ears on the head. Things, because of time, have been worn away a lot.
Bai Mo, who didn't understand what it was, turned around again and faced the people kneeling on the ground. He looked at the old man in front of him who looked respectfully and secretly looked at him, and asked aloud:
"Old man, where are you here? Why are the people behind you kneeling."
Hearing his voice, the old man looked a little strange, and finally motioned to the drum band around him to stop, and then looked respectful Road:
"Master God Envoy, this is Sawa Village, and I am the village chief here. They are all believers of Ze Shen. Master God Envoy, please help us get rid of the demons!"
"emmm" Bai Mo was a little confused. , the village chief's tone was a little weird, but I could understand it. Many questions stuck in his throat, but he still couldn't bear to have so many people kneeling, so he said: "Village Chief, please let them all get up."< br>
"Yes!" The village chief agreed immediately, and after asking the villagers to stand up, he turned back to Bai Mo and was about to issue the demon elimination mission again, but Bai Mo spoke in advance:
" Village Chief, what is the Divine Envoy? What is going on with the demon slayer? Where is Sawa Village located? "
"The Divine Envoy is the Divine Envoy, but what is the Anjie? "Things." The village chief was confused and then answered,
"I don't know where Zecun is located. I heard the previous village chief tell me that we live in the mountains in the south of Zhongzhou. A demon came to our village a few days ago. Although it did not harm anyone because of the blessing of Zeshen, it still did not harm anyone. It has caused unrest in the village, and we beg the gods to send down their envoys to drive out the demons for us!”
Hearing this, Bai Mo’s face looked a little heavy. The mountain in the south of Zhongzhou is the Dabie Mountain!
I am even more confused as to why this village is in the mountains. Do they have any special survival skills? So he continued:
"Old man, I am not a messenger of God. I was hunted down and forced to use a magic scroll to escape here. I am a mage. Do you know, mage?"
< br>As he spoke, Bai Mo waved his hand, and saw a stone next to him being taken over from the air.
"The legendary mage!?" The village chief looked excited and held Bai Mo with both hands. "You are the one sent by the gods to save us!"
Bai Mo avoided the village chief's hand, feeling helpless. How did he become a mage? A legend?
And Lingling was keenly aware of the strange place in this village. Everything was very primitive, and she even saw some things from more than a hundred years ago.
So she asked with suspicion in her mind: "Village chief, how long have you not been outside? Can you go outside?"
"Outside? Outside the mountain, go up The first time we went, it was a hundred years ago. We can go to the outside world, but there is nothing good in the outside world. People who come back say that the outside world is very dangerous." The village chief said in retrospect, and he touched his beard.
"When you go to the outside world once, you must pray sincerely in the temple for a week to obtain the blessings of the gods. Otherwise, you will be eaten by demons. There is nothing good about it."
"A hundred years ago." Lingling nodded slightly, looking at He dodged, looked at Bai Mo, and asked: "Village chief, do you all rely on Ze Shen's blessing to stay here safely? How did Ze God bless you?"
"No. No, we will pray to Ze God. As long as our hearts are pious, Ze God will bless us.”
Speaking of Ze God, the village chief’s face showed a look of reverence involuntarily. Then he thought that it was because he was not pious enough that Bai Mo and Bai Mo refused to help him expel the demons, so he deeply worshiped these two people. "Please help us drive away the demons, Lord God Envoy!"
Bai Mo was helpless and quickly supported the person. He couldn't let such a large number of people worship him. I had no choice but to sigh and agree first:
"Village chief, where is the monster you mentioned? Let's go and see."
"It's right at the entrance of the village. It will be there during the day. , we don’t dare to go there.” The village chief beamed with joy and quickly pointed out where the monster was.
So Bai Mo walked in the direction he pointed, and Lingling followed him.
Bai Mo squeezed his hand, feeling that the village chief might be in poor health and his hands were a little cold.
The village was not big, and Bai Mo glanced at it as he walked along. There were about a hundred households.
When we arrived at the entrance of the village, there was indeed a one-meter-tall creature standing there. At first glance, it looked like a goat, but if we looked closely, it had a pair of dragon-like horns. The hair on the body is white, and the face looks human, smiling gently.
I was a little scared after seeing too much.
It sees someone and neither approaches nor leaves.
As soon as Bai Mo approached, its eyes fell on Bai Mo.
"Temple!"
A voice sounded deep in his heart. Bai Mo stopped and looked at the strange white creature in surprise. He had some suspicions in his heart, but it was hard to be sure. He did not approach rashly, but He asked Xiang Lingling:
"Lingling, do you know what this is?"
"I don't know."
Lingling shook her head, her eyes wide. Looking at this creature carefully, Ta knew what Bai Mo meant, but the deeds of many totems were only eulogized by their names, and nothing else at all.
"I didn't feel any demonic aura on him, just like an ordinary creature."
Bai Mo looked at the strange creature.
At this time, the voice sounded in his heart again, "Go!"
Just as he was thinking about the meaning of these two words, Lingling's voice suddenly sounded.
“I think he looks a bit like the statue in the temple.”
"Why don't you catch it and study it." Bai Mo said, looking at the creature.
The creature seemed to know what he was going to do. As soon as he raised his head, the light in his eyes changed to silver. The creature had disappeared in a flash.
This creature seems to be running very fast!
"Let's go! Let's go!"
The villagers kept looking at the villagers shouting here, and then more shouts rang out.
"Let's go! Let's go!"
Then the shouts all turned into "Mighty God's Envoy! Mighty God's Envoy!"
Bai Mo was helpless, and Lingling also had a headache. But they seemed unable to listen to the explanation, not even the village chief.
Then he explained to the village chief who was waiting at the entrance of the stone temple that they were going to go in to see Ze Shen and pray for a week, and then the two of them were going to go outside the mountain.
The village chief agreed easily.
After entering the stone temple, Bai Mo took out two futons.
According to what the village chief said, I started praying.
Actually, it’s nothing. It’s basically asking this statue to allow the two of them to leave here safely without being attacked by monsters.
After praying for a whole day, Bai Mo didn't feel any changes. He was not in a hurry. If the village chief said a week, then it would be a week.
Three days later, Bai Mo still felt nothing about the so-called prayer. He also asked Lingling, and Lingling also said that nothing had changed.
"At least there is no malice or harm to us here." Lingling said, took out a golden bead and explained:
"This is a special detection bead that grandpa gave me. If there is any resentment, Curse, if the evil force affects me, it will shine. But I have noticed that it is quiet these days, just like before, nothing abnormal."
Bai Mo nodded slightly. Keep looking, it doesn’t take much effort anyway. And he always feels that this temple is magical and his heart is very peaceful here.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a faint halo suddenly light up on his wrist, the bracelet made of woven hair that Ding Yumian had given him.
Frowning his brows, Bai Mo subconsciously thought that he was affected by some powerful psychic ability, and subconsciously felt the wind of spiritual protection.
But I found that the wind of spiritual protection was still blowing, not diminishing at all.
He looked at the hair ring on his wrist again. He had been wearing it for a while. It was not dirty or dry. It was just like the one just cut from Ding Yumian's head. It was just like the one he had just put on his hand that day. Same as last time.
Bai Mo's abnormality obviously attracted Lingling's attention. Her eyes followed Bai Mo's gaze and moved to the hair ring on Bai Mo's hand.
At this moment, the faint crystal light on the hair ring dissipated, and then the light disappeared into Bai Mo's body.
As for the shiny new hair ring on my hand, it seemed that several months had passed in an instant, and it had become dry and withered.
Bai Mo suddenly felt that something had entered his spiritual world, but he was not a spiritual mage, so this feeling was like an illusion.
Suddenly, an elegant and faint voice sounded in my heart.
‘Something is calling me here. ’
‘Yumian! ? Why are you here? ’
‘I am a split soul that has been sleeping. You will only wake up when you encounter a dangerous psychic attack. But something suddenly woke me up just now and kept calling me. ’
Bai Mo's face moved slightly. Human souls are separated as long as they are separated, and they have been separated for so long, like a hand that suddenly lent a finger.
Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable to look at a hand with a missing finger every day?
But Ding Yumian's words reminded him of the weirdness of this village, so he said.
‘I am now in a temple in a village within a big mountain. This village has a way to avoid attacks by demons, and the way is to pray to the gods in the temple. I suspect it is the power of the totem. ’
‘God totem. ’
Ding Yumian looked at the picture in Bai Mo's mind and saw the strange statue.
‘That statue is a bit special, the thought calling me came from above. ’
