Chapter 513 The White Moonlight of Powerful Officials [1v3] 17

Chapter 513 The White Moonlight of Powerful Officials [1v3](17)

The villagers outside the temple dare not enter.

They lingered for a while, and after seeing that there was really no movement inside, they sighed and prepared to turn around and leave.

However, before taking two steps, one of them shouted.

"Look, the Shenjun Temple is on fire!!!"

Several people turned around in shock and found that a raging fire was really burning in the temple.

Although the heavy rain outside has stopped, the surroundings are still extremely humid.

In this kind of environment, the Shenjun Temple could still catch such a big fire.

Everyone showed a look of horror.

"The Lord God must be angry, this is the true fire of the phoenix!"

With an exclamation, everyone knelt down and kept bowing in the direction of the Shenjun Temple to beg for forgiveness.

Amidst the fire, a graceful figure rushed out, trying to escape under the cover of black smoke.

A villager spotted her with sharp eyes, "Isn't that Liu Qiqi?!"

The rage washed away everyone's fear, and they rushed forward and captured this woman who was in tatters and a bit crazy.

"Did you set fire to the Shenjun Temple? You crazy woman!"

"You must have angered the Lord God. How dare someone like you hide in the Temple of the Lord God!"

"Go, take her away and hand her over to Wu Xian, Lord Wu Xian will deal with her!"

Bai Wu pretended to sob and struggled twice.

But the villagers completely ignored her physical condition, tied her hands and feet tightly, lifted her up and walked to the town.

Amidst the curses and discussions from the villagers on the road, Bai Wu gradually understood the ins and outs of the matter.

Liu Qiqi is the only daughter outside Liu Yuan in the town.

The Liu family has been in business for generations and has a strong family background.

Liu Yuanwai is an old man and has a son. Even if it is a daughter, he will regard her as the apple of his eye and pamper her until she grows up.

Liu Qiqi soon became a grown-up girl. She was well-informed and courteous, and her appearance was outstanding. She attracted the marriage proposals of many dignitaries from far and near.

However, Yuan Liu had no intention of marrying off his daughter.

Lingnan Town is very close to Lingguang Mountain where the temple is located. People in the town believe in Lingguang God even more and have reached a state of obsession.

In order to better spread the divine will of the god and expand the number of believers, the temple set up a Wu Xian as a priest in every village and town.

Wu Xian was in charge of various ritual activities in a place, and his power and prestige was even greater than that of the town mayor or the county magistrate.

However, Liu Yuanwai had very close contacts with Wu Xian in Lingnan Town due to his own reasons.

His belief in the Divine Lord was also affected to the point of becoming obsessed.

Wu Xian told him that his daughter Liu Qiqi had a blessed face and was highly regarded by the god.

If he recommends her, she will most likely become a goddess and go to the temple to worship Lord Lingguang.

After hearing the news, Yuan Liu was so excited that he stayed up all night and immediately refused all marriage proposals.

Because the temple has regulations, anyone who serves in the temple cannot get married for life.

They must offer everything they have to Lord Lingguang.

Must remain pure, kind, loving, and sincere.

This is also the principle that the temple has always followed.

But Liu Qiqi didn’t think so.

A young and ignorant girl is full of endless fantasies about things between men and women.

She didn't want to be a goddess, and she didn't want to spend the rest of her life in that temple, spending the rest of her life with a cold statue of a god.

Under the coercion and inducement of her father, the girl gradually became rebellious and began to run away from home frequently.

It was probably during this process that she got acquainted with the emperor who paid a private visit incognito.

Liu Yuanwai didn't know about this, he just thought his daughter had a strong temper and didn't like to be restrained, so he simply turned a blind eye.

But then Wu Xian found him and said that he had submitted his resignation to the temple, and the temple agreed to accept Liu Qiqi as the goddess.

The news reached Lingnan Town, and everyone in the town cheered.

A goddess appeared in Lingnan Town who was about to take up a post in the temple. This was something that had never happened before.

So Liu Yuanwai happily captured his daughter.

Before she told her daughter the news, she was shocked to find that she was one month pregnant.

When word spread about the incident, Wu Xian was furious, saying that by doing this she was despising and blaspheming the God King, and would be punished by the God King.

Liu Yuanwai couldn't bear the humiliation of his family tradition and insisted on forcing his daughter to have an abortion. Even Mrs. Liu felt ashamed.

An unmarried daughter becomes pregnant, which is a huge humiliation for a family with a strict family tradition.

What's more, Liu Qiqi was chosen as the goddess.

But Liu Qiqi refused to tell the truth no matter what. Even though she was locked up at home and beaten by Liu Yuan, she still refused to reveal anything.

Immediately afterwards, strange things began to happen frequently in Lingnan Town.

Either this house was on fire, or that house was robbed.

There was even an unsolved case of a missing girl.

The whole town was plunged into panic.

Everyone believed that Liu Qiqi had offended the Lord God, causing him to no longer protect their town, and that caused the evil spirit to come out and cause chaos.

So they frantically offered incense to Shenjun Temple to seek forgiveness from Shenjun.

But those who went to Shenjun Temple ended up having strange accidents.

Wu Xian said that it was because they had lost the trust of the Lord God, so the Lord God did not want them to get close.

The people in the town became even more panicked. They all pointed their fingers at Liu Qiqi and asked her to die as an apology.

At the same time, the news of the late emperor's death came. Coupled with the physical torture, Liu Qiqi became insane and escaped.

These villagers were entrusted by Liu Yuanwai and Wu Xian to capture her and take her back.

Bai Wu guessed that Liu Qiqi might have had a miscarriage during this process.

But she couldn't accept the fact that the baby was gone, so she stuffed the sponge into her clothes to pretend that she was still pregnant.

In fact, death is not a relief for her.

In her situation, even if she is discovered and taken back by the people in the palace, Bai Cang and Bai Yan will not let her live a good life.

Instead of suffering in a place where people eat people without spitting out their bones.

It is better to escape from the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible.

She took one last look at the Shenjun Temple that she had set on fire.

The fire grew stronger and stronger, and had the potential to sweep across the world.

In the bright red flames, Bai Wu could vaguely see the shadow of the Phoenix statue.

God...

Ah.

There is no god.

It's just a gimmick concocted by people who want to gain power and prestige.

These villagers were in dire straits because of their beliefs.

But what is the temple that has always been known for blessing the world doing?

Are you watching with cold eyes?

Still don’t even know that such a small place exists not far from Lingguang Mountain.



Bai Wu was carried back to Lingnan Town.

The villagers were not idle and sent her directly to Liu Mansion.

It was late at night, and the gate of Liu's mansion was closed. The villagers could only enter through the small door in the backyard, and then threw her into the woodshed.

Bai Wu could read the disgust, fear, and anger in their eyes.

No one pitied her for the torture and devastation she suffered.

She pushed aside her deliberately messed up hair, revealing her scarlet beauty mark, and her eyes were filled with a cold light.

Now that this town has lost the blessing of the God King.

Then let her, the devil, mess up the town even more.
