Mu Yi didn't know how many bad things the middle-aged Taoist priest had done, but his end was that he was bitten to death by a group of people. He was even covered in blood and flesh when he died, his ears and nose were bitten off, and even his eyes were gouged out.
come out.
The people who did all this were the people who were kneeling there before. Their crazy pastoralism is understandable, but they have no sympathy at all. They just feel that they don't feel sorry for the children who died.
After this incident, neither Mu Yi nor Nian Nuer had the interest to continue playing.
"Does Nu'er hate them?" On the way, Mu Yi still held an umbrella in one hand and held Nian Nu'er in the other.
"No resentment." Nian Nuer shook her head, but her voice was slightly lower, obviously she hadn't gotten over what happened just now.
"Why? They wanted to hand over the slaves to be sacrificed to the river god." Mu Yi asked.
"They, they don't want that bad guy to scare them." Nian Nuer hesitated for a moment and said.
"Nu'er is right, they are actually just a group of poor people." Mu Yi sighed and said.
"Yes." Nian Nuer nodded. Seeing the serious look on her face, I didn't know if she really understood.
Originally, Mu Yi was a little worried about Nian Nuer's situation and whether she would get into trouble, but after her words, Mu Yi felt relieved. At least the little girl was stronger and more sensible than he thought.
"Taoist Master, you are back." The steward's eyes suddenly widened when he saw Mu Yi coming back with a beautiful little girl. He knew very well that Mu Yi was alone when he got off the boat, and he had not been there for the past two days.
I have never seen any little girls on board.
In other words, this little girl was brought back by Mu Yi just after getting off the ship.
Especially since this little girl is so beautiful and lovely, the manager will inevitably start to think about it. This robbing of people is a crime, and if someone comes to visit...
However, the steward just thought about it in his heart and had no intention of speaking out. He had even decided in his heart that he must keep this matter in his heart and not tell anyone. As for this little girl, the steward could only reveal a hint of it in his heart.
Helpless sympathy, but not pretending to be a good person.
"Yes." Mu Yi nodded to the steward, and took Nian Nuer back to the second floor. Although the steward's expression was a little strange, he couldn't read minds after all, and he didn't know what he was thinking, otherwise he would
The expressions will definitely be interesting.
"Hey, I just saw that the Taoist priest seems to be a little different."
After Mu Yi boarded the ship, the steward suddenly seemed to remember something, frowned, and said in disbelief, but it was too fast just now, so it is not certain whether it was an illusion.
"Come on, let's start the boat." The steward immediately shook his head and urged the boatman to start the boat quickly. He even glanced at the shore from time to time, fearing that a group of people would suddenly appear there. Until the building and the boat gradually moved away, there was still no one there.
After catching up, the steward breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it is not good to rob a little girl, who knows that the person on the boat is a rising demon in the world. Even Bafangtang is destroyed at the word of destruction. Now just robbing a little girl is nothing at all.
The steward kept comforting himself in this way.
Poor Mu Yi didn't know at all that he had become a demon who robbed little girls.
Because worshiping the river god had become a farce, no one stopped him, so the river gradually became smoother. When Mu Yilou's boat passed that bank, you could still hear the noise and all kinds of screams coming from the bank.
of crying.
Mu Yi knew that maybe they would be sad this year, but next year, some people might start offering sacrifices to the River God again to seek His blessing. This kind of traditional concept and deep-rooted belief cannot be changed in a short time.
of.
Most people even have the mentality that it doesn't matter to them, and think in their hearts that everything has nothing to do with the River God. It is a middle-aged Taoist priest who is using the banner of the River God to deceive. They even pray to the River God for forgiveness.
Next year's sacrifice will undoubtedly be more grand.
Are they stupid? Maybe, but they are definitely not stupid. Big people have the wisdom of big people, and small people also have the cunning of small people.
After Nian Nuer came out this time, he rarely returned to the Time Bamboo, and even appeared on the boat openly. At this moment, everyone on the boat knew that Mu Yi had kidnapped a little girl.
After Wang Tao learned about this incident, he complained for a while. If the two soldiers had not dissuaded him, he might have gone to Mu Yi and asked him to let Nian Nuer go home.
Although Mu Yi did not eavesdrop on purpose, he knew the cause and effect of the incident, and also understood why the manager's attitude became weird.
Thinking of this, Mu Yi shook his head. He was seriously confused by the authorities.
When he brought Nian Nuer back, he naturally had no intention of concealing Nian Nuer's identity, but others didn't know this. After all, there were ordinary people on the boat. They only knew that Mu Yi got off the boat and brought a little boy with him when he came back.
girl.
Did you buy it? That's terrible. Most of them were snatched back. Who made Mu Yi be called the Demon Dao now?
As for demons, it is natural to do bad things, but if you do good things, you will immediately be suspected of having ulterior motives or hiding some conspiracy.
"boom!"
At night, Mu Yi was in the process of meditating. The boat was parked quietly on a wide river. It was not impossible to sail at night, but the safety hazard was too great. The steward naturally did not dare to take this risk, otherwise the boat would be damaged or run aground.
It's a small thing, but it's a big deal if it really makes the man on the boat unhappy.
However, the sudden impact immediately woke up everyone on the boat, including Mu Yi.
"boom!"
Another collision followed, even more violent this time. The ship began to shake, and the cabin became a mess.
Mu Yi woke up from trance, frowned slightly, then stood up and walked out carrying the Time Bamboo.
"Taoist Priest, are you okay?" Mu Yi had just come out, and the steward climbed up in disheveled clothes. At this moment, the steward's face was pale and his eyes were full of worry.
"It doesn't matter." Mu Yi shook his head, but pretended to be listening attentively. Then, he stepped down a little and his body quickly disappeared on the second floor of the building ship.
The steward was shocked when he saw Mu Yi suddenly disappearing, but before he could recover, the building was hit again, even more strongly this time, and because the building was shaking, he was unsteady on his feet and fell straight down.
fell to the ground.
The steward didn't even care about the pain in his body and returned the way he came. Although the ship was very strong, according to the degree of impact, it wouldn't take long for a big hole to be knocked out of the cabin. By that time, the weight of the ship would
, I'm afraid it will quickly sink to the bottom of the river.
Thinking of this, the steward's face turned even paler.
Although the docking location of the building boat is not in the center of the river, it is definitely not shallow. Once it sinks to the bottom of the river, given the temperature at this time of year, not many people on the boat will survive, not even including him.
When the steward came to the lower level, he happened to see Mu Yi standing on the bow of the boat holding a pole.
"Taoist Master, be careful." The steward did not care about his own safety and hurriedly reminded him, but he forgot that with Mu Yi's strength, how could something happen on the ship?
Wang Tao and two personal guards also walked out of the room, and the two personal guards held the knives tightly to prevent any accidents.
The occurrence of such a thing in the middle of the night itself indicates that something is abnormal, and no matter how vigilant they are at this moment, they cannot be too cautious.
As the steward shouted, the three of them also saw Mu Yi standing at the bow of the boat. Just when the three of them were a little confused, Mu Yi suddenly moved and thrust the pole in his hand into the water.
At the same time, something hit the hull of the ship again under the water, but this time the intensity was obviously much smaller. But then, they heard a sound of rolling waves, which they could see even if they were still some distance away from the bow of the ship.
To the flying water splash.
Now, no matter how stupid they were, they already understood that Mu Yi was attacking the unknown thing underwater. It might be a big fish, or it might be a water demon or water ghost.
At least the manager has never encountered this kind of situation in all these years.
"Hmph, what a cunning beast." Mu Yi suddenly snorted coldly, but the pole in his hand was raised and lowered again, and the churning sound under the water couldn't help but become louder, and even the building shook. You know,
The length of this building is more than six feet, and its width is one to seven feet. It is already quite large, but even so, the water waves alone can make the building rock. You can imagine the power of the churning water waves.
However, no matter how violently the building rocked, Mu Yi always stood firmly on the bow, his feet seemed to have roots, and his eyes were looking at the churning water with extremely sharp eyes. Then, he raised the pole in his hand again.
But this time, because the force poured into it was so great, the pole broke apart and dissipated in Mu Yi's hand.
Under the water, a huge creature suddenly jumped up. Its upper body was even as tall as Mu Yi standing on the bow of the boat.
"Look, what is that?"
"Monster, such a big monster."
"The river demon is coming."
There was a sudden chaos on the boat. At this time, people are always full of fear of the unknown, and underwater is one of the unknowns, because it cannot be seen with the naked eye and can only be based on various guesses. Therefore, various water monsters and water ghosts
The rumors are rampant.
Therefore, people worship the river god in order to protect themselves. To put it bluntly, they still lack a sense of security.
The previous underwater attack on the building boat had made them suspicious. At this moment, they witnessed the huge thing leaping out of the water. Under the light of the light hanging on the building boat, the water was sparkling, and the monster was even more powerful.
Wearing armor, his eyes are as big as a bucket, and two large claws seem to protrude from under his body. In his open mouth, sharp teeth gleam with cold light.
The monster alone is already bigger than a cow, and when put together, the size is beyond imagination.
However, few people noticed that half of the pole was stuck in the monster's back, and blood was flowing out of it.
