Volume 3: Summoning Demons Chapter 22: Extinction of the Race
Walking in the woods, Lu Bai glanced at Li Bodhisattva who was shivering from the cold.
Then he said, "Let's find a place to dry our bodies first, and wait for others."
"Who are you waiting for?" Bodhisattva Li shrank his body, his face pale with cold.
"Waiting for an old friend of yours." Lu Bai narrowed his eyes. If possible, he actually didn't want to travel by land.
It would be great if I could follow the Qingjiang River all the way to the upper section, see Lianqing, and quickly get rid of my illness.
But things in this world can't always go as planned.
Lu Bai lit a fire and began to wait quietly.
He looked up a lot of information and learned about the survival mode of this era.
In addition to the cities where the Extermination of Evil Spirits Bureau regularly protects the people, villages and towns far away from the cities generally worship gods to protect the residential areas from the influence of evil spirits.
That’s right, it was the position that Chi Gan held before.
The city's Evil-Extermination Bureau turned a blind eye to this act of worshipping the gods.
Because there are too many evil spirits, they really can't control them.
As long as the "God" doesn't go too far, the Evil Suppression Department will not intervene.
Since Lijia Village was so far away from Lupan City at that time, it must have had a corresponding "god" or corresponding defense measures.
However, the information Lu Bai got from the portrait of Li Du's mother was .
On the first night that Lian Qing came back for revenge, he had to retreat because he didn't have enough strength.
Before the night was over, Li Du fled first, because the villagers were discussing selling Li Du in exchange for the peace of the village.
It was not until the second night that most of the people in Lijia Village fled with their families, leaving Li Du's mother alone to be tortured by Lian Qing.
This story doesn't make logical sense.
On the first night, Lian Qing was defeated due to his lack of ability. It is impossible that Lian Qing was a Jinkela. He would come back immediately on the second night and kill everyone.
Then there is only one explanation, that is, it is not Lian Qing that has become stronger, but Lijia Village that has become weaker.
After discovering this, Lijiacun had to flee.
As for why it becomes weaker, we have to look at another question.
There were so many households in Lijia Village back then, dozens or even hundreds of people, who fled into the woods and headed towards Lupan City. In the end, only five people made it to Lupan City.
On the contrary, Li Du, a loser, left alone and arrived at his destination safely.
Is this reasonable?
This doesn't make sense.
Then once the questions are combined, the answer can be easily obtained.
The disappeared power of Lijia Village protected Li Du and ran away first, and sold out the other people in Lijia Village without mercy.
And this person had indirectly contacted Lu Bai before.
When Lu Bai was passing through the forest before, those feather insects followed him all the way and kept testing him.
At that time, Lu Bai suspected whether there was someone behind the feather insect controlling it.
It was just that Lu Bai didn't have the conditions at that time, so he didn't try to dig out the person behind it.
It was precisely because of this doubt that he chose a waterway that he had never taken before when he returned this time.
Now it seems that we still have to give it a try.
Sure enough, before it got dark, a puffing sound could be heard in the distance.
A person wearing white feathered clothes appeared not far away.
"Li Shan?" Lu Bai asked speculatively, which startled Li Du beside him. His face turned red and then turned pale.
He realized that his lie had been exposed.
What he said was that he was not sure whether there was anything going on between Lian Qing and Li Shan at the entrance of the village.
But he actually knew that there was a high probability that Lian Qing had no problems with Li Shan.
The one who really has a problem with the other party is yourself.
Li Shan came to find him that day, but his mother came back first. Li Shan ran away in a hurry and was seen by his mother.
He hid in his room and dared not come out, and was mistaken by his mother for Lian Qing.
Because a mother who proudly thinks her son is the best would never have thought that her son was lying in the arms of another person's son at that time.
Because of this, on the night when his mother drugged Lian Qing, Li Du wanted to explain many times, but he couldn't open his mouth.
He was afraid of disappointing his mother, and he didn't dare to imagine how sad his mother would be if she knew this.
So…so…
"So you followed your mother's orders and killed Lian Qing together."
"She was soaked in the river in the snow and ice. Her body gradually lost temperature. The tears in her eyes froze into ice. Her body was eaten by the fish in the river."
"If it were me, I would also be filled with resentment."
Lu Bai said sarcastically, "You two dogs... emmm, I can expel you from the male group, but I don't know if the female group will accept you. So let's just say this."
"You two dogs, Li Bodhisattva, made me take a cold shower in the river in such a cold weather."
"You two are so different. One of you is a king in the forest, and the other is a butt seller in the city."
"Brother Shan! I..." After hearing Lu Bai's words, Bodhisattva Li wanted to explain to Li Shan immediately.
But the words just couldn't come out.
"It's useless to explain. Do you think he is still the original Li Shan? Will he watch you become a butt-selling Li Bodhisattva?"
Lu Bai stood up, his eyes gradually becoming serious.
The deity of a village is usually chosen from those who died unjustly in the village.
In fact, every household in the village is a relative.
Li Shan might be a worshipper of the deity, or he might be a martial artist who had learned how to summon demons.
Only in this way can we drive the God.
It can be seen from the fact that he lives at the entrance of the village that Li Shan has the responsibility to defend against threats and protect the village.
The deity was a native of Lijia Village. Li Shan's ability to command the deity was probably related to his protection of the village.
And he obviously neglected his duties , thinking only of his own Bodhisattva Li, and allowing Lian Qing to destroy the village. This cannot be without cost.
Otherwise, how could a normal, capable person stay in the woods like a savage and let his lover sell his ass?
Therefore, it is highly likely that Li Shan is the warrior who practices the method of summoning demons. He has established contact with the God of Lijia Village and uses him as the target of summoning demons in the name of protecting Lijia Village.
It was a pity that he broke his own will and violated the agreement, and the God started to act strangely.
The person in feathered robe in front of him should be a combination of Li Shan and that God.
Therefore, his actions were mainly based on temptation.
If it were a simple Li Shan, he would have been chased and killed by the opponent long ago.
"This Li Shan is a despicable, shameless, homosexual, and treacherous person."
"You don't know that Li Du, the Bodhisattva, has a great reputation in Lu Pan City. I don't know how many people are his benefactors!"
To some extent, he was also the culprit for the destruction of Lijia Village.
"Have you said enough? If you have, then hand the person over." Li Shan's face was not looking good at this time. He didn't want to listen to these, but the God asked him to listen.
"He is the only remaining child of Li Village. If he is really handed over to that bitch, the Li Village will be wiped out."
