Chapter 390 Undercurrent(1/2)
Since Chu Ci went into seclusion, Taiyi Prefecture has entered a rare peaceful time.
The God-killers in the Temple of Life were hunted down by the God Realm team, so they each hid, keeping a low profile and digesting the power gained during this period.
Because the God Killer could not be found, the God Realm team also changed their thinking. Except for occasionally sending people to hunt down the God Killer when they got news of the God Killer's appearance, the rest of the time they just patrolled the cities and mountains and blocked the three major cities.
State borders.
The two sides seemed to have entered a strange tacit understanding stage.
The Temple of Life does not move, and neither does the God Realm team.
The Temple of Life does not move because they cannot move. If they move, they will be devastated by the gods.
The God Realm team did not move because they slowed down the progress of the search and focused more on sealing the border.
Originally, the God Realm team couldn't find anyone in their search, but now that the search progress has been slowed down, they can't find anyone even more, so naturally they can't move.
The reason why they focused on sealing the border was because of the order of the God of Wind.
Although Fengshen temporarily left Sanzhou because of the incident with the Sky Demon, he did not forget about the Temple of Life.
Before leaving, he listened to Chu Ci's advice and "accidentally" revealed to the team of gods who went to the Black Desert that the God of Forging had forged a search instrument.
Then he broke up the team, arranged the gods in the team into various teams of gods, and asked the teams to seal the border and prevent any living beings from entering or leaving.
The purpose of Fengshen doing this is to prevent people from the Temple of Life from escaping.
If there is really a spy in the team who has tipped off the information, then the people in the Temple of Life will definitely not sit still and wait for death after knowing it, and will choose to flee the Three States.
The scope of China is very large, and the three states alone have already made the gods of the God Realm Team very anxious, let alone the entire China.
Once the people of the Temple of Life are allowed to leave the Three States, even if there are search instruments, it will be difficult to find the God-killers hidden in the vast sea of people. Therefore, Fengshen must seal all the borders of the Three States in advance to prevent them from letting them go.
leave.
Another advantage of doing this is that if the God-killers really break through the blockade and leave their encirclement, the Fengshen can also use the direction of their breakthrough to determine the team of gods where the inner ghost is, thereby narrowing the scope of suspicion.
But in this way, the progress of the search will undoubtedly be slowed down.
And because the gods are scattered across the border, if the Godslayers hunt the gods at this time, there is a high probability that the God Realm team will not be able to arrive in time.
Fengshen was also helpless about this, but there was no way. They didn't have enough manpower to take care of both sides, so they could only choose the more important side.
What's more, the group of god-killers may not dare to come out to hunt the gods.
According to Fengshen's opinion, after their pursuit for this period of time, the Temple of Life should behave well for a while, at least not daring to cause trouble until the search equipment comes out.
The shrinking power of the Temple of Life during this period also confirmed his thoughts. There were few god-killers showing up, so Fengshen was relieved to turn his focus to sealing the border.
However, as Chu Ci said, the silence in the Temple of Life is only temporary, and their lurking will only be to brew a larger action plan.
But what Chu Ci didn't expect was that the life temple's action plan would cause far greater harm than he imagined.
Its subsequent impact even spread to the entire China.
…
Taiyizhou.
In a remote village.
"Bang!"
A tall and strong man was knocked out and hit the wall behind him hard.
The strong man fell to the ground and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing this, a little girl ran towards the strong man with a cry.
"dad!"
"Don't come over!" the strong man shouted angrily, stopping the little girl from coming over.
The strong man raised his head and looked at the group of people not far away, his eyes filled with anger.
This was a group of extraordinary and powerful people. They wore long robes and looked indifferent, turning a blind eye to the angry gazes cast by the strong men.
On their robes were printed the four characters "Zhengyang Temple".
Anyone who sees these people will have two words pop up in their mind.
Priest!
It's just that this priest, who was usually respected, was now very unpopular.
Around these priests, villagers gathered, all looking at the priests with angry eyes, as if they had done something outrageous.
The leading priest took a few steps forward, looked at the strong man and said coldly: "Why, are you still not convinced?"
"Master Priest, we are convinced, we are convinced!" An old man with a cane next to him came forward tremblingly: "Please stop beating me!"
"But I don't think he's convinced."
"No, no, no, Quanzi has long been convinced." The old man looked at the strong man on the ground and said angrily: "You bastard! Why don't you quickly apologize to the priest!"
The strong man stubbornly raised his head and looked at the old man, but after seeing the old man's red eyes, he still lowered his head.
The old man quickly said to the priest: "Priest, you see, Quanzi already knows that he is wrong."
"This doesn't seem like an attitude of admitting a mistake." The priest suddenly laughed and said: "Since you know you were wrong, you should apologize, right?"
"I heard that you have a piece of glazed jade here?"
The old man looked stunned. Before he could speak, other villagers became furious.
"I knew this group of people had bad intentions. It turns out they came here for the glazed jade!"
"Village Chief, we can't give the glazed jade to them. This is something we offer to the gods. How can we give it to villains like them!"
"That's right! You are still a priest like this. It seems that their gods are not good birds either!"
"Get out of our village!"
The priest's words seemed to arouse the anger of the villagers, and everyone was angrily cursing the priests.
After one of the priests heard the village name's angry curse, his expression turned cold and he waved his hand and threw a fireball.
"boom!"
The fireball bombarded the crowd, causing a violent explosion. Many people were directly blown away, and screams suddenly broke out.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Ahhhhhh!"
One of the villagers who was closest to the explosion had his legs broken off and his lower body was bloody and bloody. He looked extremely scary.
The attacking priest said coldly: "If I hear insults about my god again, it will not be as simple as breaking my leg!"
"asshole!"
"brute!"
The remaining villagers wanted to spit fire, but under the intimidation just now, they did not dare to continue scolding, and could only look at the priest with murderous eyes.
Looking at the injured villagers, the strong man's eyes were cracked and he clenched his fists, wanting to go up and fight these people.
But he knew he couldn't defeat him. The strength gap between the two sides was too big. He would only be humiliating himself if he went up.
The old man was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at the priest tremblingly, unable to say a complete sentence: "You, you, you..."
"I don't like people pointing their fingers at me." The priest frowned and said, "For the sake of your age, forget it this time. If you dare to point at me next time, you don't need your fingers."
The old man put down his hand and swallowed his anger and said: "Master Priest, can you exchange it for something? Glazed jade is something that has been worshiped by the gods in our village for generations and cannot be given to others."
"In a poor village like yours, what other good things can there be besides glazed jade?" The chief priest said lightly: "Okay, don't waste our time. Hand over the glazed jade and we will leave immediately."
"Otherwise, haha..."
Listening to the priest's threatening words, the old man's expression changed, and he was obviously struggling in his heart.
The priest frowned, and then he saw the little girl not far from the strong man.
The little girl looked at her father lying on the ground with tears in her eyes, but she did not dare to step forward.
At this time, she felt her collar tighten, and her whole body was caught.
The little girl turned around and looked shocked.
"Asshole! Let go of my daughter!"
When the strong man saw this scene, he immediately rushed over angrily, but was quickly kicked back by the priest.
"Daddy!" the little girl cried and cried while struggling.
"If anything happens to me, don't attack the child!" The strong man struggled to get up and begged the priest.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to the children. I just see how cute your children are." The priest turned to look at the old man and said with a smile: "How about it, have you thought about it?"
Half an hour later, under the angry looks of all the villagers, the group left the village.
The priest who was walking on the path in the forest and throwing fireballs at the villagers suddenly said: "Xinle, what time are you wasting with those unscrupulous people? If you ask me, just kill a few of them and they will have handed over the glazed jade long ago.
"
The leading priest, known as Xin Le, played with a piece of glazed jade statue and said with a smile: "Mach, I have said it many times, we are not god-killers now, but priests. We must do things with the thinking of priests, and don't keep thinking.
