Chapter 175 Demolition of the Temple
Early this morning, the county magistrate who had just recovered from a serious illness attracted a group of officials including Captain Cai and others.
"Sir, you're in good health, so you might as well take a little longer!"
Captain Cai couldn't help but persuade him when he saw the county magistrate's face pale.
The county magistrate shook his head, "The people are deceived by evil gods and delay for a day, and suffer more than one day. It is urgent to break down lustful sacrifices and demolish temples!"
He was so fierce and courageous that when the officials saw him, they couldn't help but say "hero" in their hearts.
As soon as his body recovered, he had to lead a team to demolish the Five Tong Temple. It was undoubtedly a determination. As long as he still had a breath, he would never compromise with the lewd sacrifice.
"Sir, do you want to dispatch troops to the county?"
Captain Cai asked for instructions that it is not scary to have a single Five-Tire Temple, but the evil gods can incite ignorant people, and the lessons learned last time are still vivid in my mind.
The people seem docile, but if they are incited, they will be enough to turn into a madman, which is terrifying!
"No need, I have my own arrangements!"
The county magistrate was full of confidence and led Captain Cai and other officials to leave the county government.
When the people in the county town saw such a situation, they knew that the county magistrate wanted to demolish the Wutong Temple, and immediately ran around to tell him.
"The county magistrate is going to demolish the temple!"
"Go again, aren't you afraid that the gods will bring disaster?"
"Of course I'm not afraid. The county magistrate has taken the opportunity to rescue him, and it's all right!"
"Why didn't you see this?"
The county magistrate took people out of the city and arrived at the village last time, and the people all looked at each other.
"The county magistrate has an order to catch the old woman who smuggled last time!"
The last time the county magistrate was caught, he drank a bowl of clean water in advance and then was sucked away.
From this we can see that the seemingly ordinary old woman must be one of the minions of the Five Gods. She will take it first and can also question some information.
Several officials rushed to the house, but it was quiet and there was no voice at all.
"Crack the door and catch people!"
Captain Cai waved his hand, and the officials held up the wooden stakes, knocked the wooden door open, and rushed in.
In a moment, they found the old woman.
The old woman had already fallen into a coma and was pushed by the officials, but she still did not wake up.
"Forget it, stop, she's an old man after all!"
The county magistrate ordered the officials to let go of the old woman, and she collapsed softly on the ground.
"The situation is wrong!"
The officials scattered around and looked around for a while, and found that all the farmers around were silent.
It was noon now, and it was not midnight. There should be smoke rising in cooking, but it was quiet around it, and there was not even the chirping of chickens and dogs.
Too quiet, like an empty village.
"Take it again!"
The county magistrate issued a deep voice, and Captain Cai personally led the officials to search one by one.
“There is no one here!”
"I don't have one here either!"
The officials came back one by one to report that the people in the entire village disappeared, as if they had moved away collectively.
"No, except for the population, everything else in the village is still there. This is not as simple as moving or escaping!"
At first, everyone thought that the people were afraid when they heard that the county magistrate woke up, so they ran away. However, how could they leave their hometown without luggage?
The scene in front of you is too weird!
"The evil god is at work?"
When the county magistrate learned about the situation in the village, he pondered for a moment, "Is it a man-made disaster?"
The village was silent, and there was no living creature except those present.
Whether it is chicken, duck, geese, poultry, pig, cattle, sheep, etc., all of them fainted in the pen, which was the same as the previous old woman.
The officials were worried and couldn't help looking at the county magistrate.
The county magistrate looked up and looked at the direction of Wutong Temple, "Go!"
He knew that the final answer would be revealed in front of the Wutong Temple.
After walking a few steps, the county magistrate stopped and said, "Come on paper and pen, I want to leave a document."
The pen, ink and paper were ready, and the county magistrate splashed ink, and an article became in a moment.
"This county follows the emperor's order, educates the people, breaks down lustful sacrifices, and accidentally evil gods are rampant and bewitches the world..."
"Now, we will order the king to destroy the temple and remove the gods, and we will all implicate the people. If we can return to the world, we will not blame the past. If we are obsessed with it, we will be clear about the king's laws, how can we not be punished without teaching?"
"In the 27th year of Longguang, the county magistrate Guan Ziqing!"
The county magistrate took out the official seal, stamped it on the announcement, and handed it over to an official.
"Posted in the most eye-catching location at the entrance of the village, so that pedestrians can see it!"
The announcement was posted, and the county magistrate and his group continued to walk towards the Wutong Temple.
As expected, the missing people gathered in the open space in front of the temple, their eyes closed and they looked like sleepwalking, but they all knelt down to the temple, their movements were neat and uniform, and they looked very pious.
In the Wutong Temple, the temple Zhu smiled and watched the county magistrate and his group arrive.
"The county magistrate came from afar. If the small temple is in a far distance, don't blame him for being rude!"
The county magistrate stared at him. The last time it was this person who was possessed by Wutong, which made him fall into a coma.
"The temple blessing, the five-direction god is dead, and this county will demolish the temple and destroy the lewd sacrifices here!"
"Feel sorry!"
Temple Zhu shook his head, "Although the Five Tongs Gods die, the temple is still there, and the people still believe in the same faith. What is the difference between the present and the past?"
"My magistrate, it is better to follow the past and be at peace with you and me."
"The people worship the Five Trigrams, and they still pay taxes for their food, farm and rent, and everything is fine!"
After hearing this, the officials felt it made sense. After all, the Wutong Temple is famous and has never violated the government.
The county magistrate first came to demolish the temple, which was a very disrespectful collision, and then he was punished to fall into a coma.
"No way!"
The county magistrate was so angry that he pointed at the temple Zhu Heng's eyebrows and looked angry.
"The destruction of human hearts is the most deadly! It is fine if you offer offerings to evil gods, distort the teachings of gods, and steal money, but you also filthy local people's hearts. It is simply unforgivable to sin!"
"This county has just come today. You will definitely demolish your temple and wipe the name Wutongshen completely from the ears of the people in this county!"
The temple Zhu's expression changed, his tone was cold, "Demolition of the temple? Are you going to destroy my foundation and prepare forever?"
"This life in this county is here. I will not return until the temple is demolished!"
Temple Zhu sneered, "I'm so ambitious, I want to see if your kingly magic is powerful or my magic is powerful!"
The next moment, the temple Zhu hit his chest with both fists, "The six gods obey the order!"
In just a moment, the county magistrate, Captain Cai and the officials behind him were immediately attacked by the "Six Divine Disgust" and their minds became confused.
"not good!"
Captain Cai was possessed by the art of punishment and control, and had already developed the "bone of punishment". He was upright all his life and immediately realized that it was the magic that harmed people.
"Xie Zhuang, come out!"
A token shaking and flew out, covering Captain Cai's forehead, blocking the attack of Liushen Technique.
However, he himself barely protected himself, and immediately sat on the ground, using his full strength to resist the punishment technique.
The other officials were not good enough, and they fell one after another, and fell into a deep coma like the previous old woman and the livestock in the village.
The county magistrate performed normally today, glaring and shouting.
Haoran's righteous energy broke out of his body and broke the attack of the Liushen Technique.
Chapter completed!
