Chapter 5418: beetle 3
Noticing the change in his expression, Leng Xuan couldn't help but ask, "Senior Yan, what's wrong?" Yan Chengfeng said, "Your elder hasn't come back for so long, I'm worried it might be because of that." Wen Yan, Leng Xuan asked, "Why?" Yan Chengfeng hesitated for a moment, then replied, "This is a long story. If you have time, you might as well go to Yanhe Valley with me." Hearing this, Leng Xuan Immediately replied, "No problem." At this moment, under the leadership of Yan Chengfeng, Leng Xuan, Feng Lie and Feng Shang set off separately and galloped towards the Yanhe Valley.
After less than a day of running around, Leng Xuan and the four arrived in a relatively remote valley. In the valley, they saw the spring stream flowing, the pines tall and straight, the vegetation prosperous, lush and beautiful. And in the forest, there are more than ten wooden houses built, chickens and dogs chirping, like a paradise. Leng Xuan walked in the forest and asked, "This is the Yanhe Valley?" Yan Chengfeng nodded and said, "More than a thousand years ago, wars broke out in the secular world, so many mortals who were persecuted by the war fled here and settled here. Build a house and settle down. Now that so many years have passed, these secular people are still passed down from generation to generation and rarely enter the secular world." While speaking, the four had already arrived in front of the surrounding wooden houses. Leng Xuan glanced around and found that among the wooden houses, there was a very conspicuous house. On the top of the house, there were three quaint characters of "Sacrificial Temple" engraved. At this moment, the gate of the sacrifice temple is open, and people come in and out from time to time, kneeling and worshipping the gods inside. Seeing this, he couldn't help but say, "People here are so superstitious?" Yan Chengfeng shook his head and said solemnly: "It seems that my guess is correct, and something happened."
said, he moved his pace and walked into the sacrifice temple, and Leng Xuan and the others followed closely behind. After entering the sacrifice temple, I saw an old man wearing a Taoist robe holding a peach wood sword, dancing the sword among the crowd, chanting words, lighting a spell from time to time, and throwing it into an incense burner. The others knelt on both sides of the Taoist, and kowtowed respectfully. After a few scrutiny, an elderly man finally noticed Leng Xuan and the others, and quickly walked up to them and asked, "Who are you?" Hearing this, Leng Xuan smiled and said, "Hello, old man, we are here. I lost my way in the forest, and I happened to see someone living here, so I came here to ask for saliva."
The old man nodded and said, "Then come with me, don't disturb Luo Daoist's practice." After coming out of the sacrifice temple, Leng Xuan and the four accompanied the old man to a slightly dilapidated wooden house. After being seated, the old man brought a few glasses of water and some food, placed them in front of Leng Xuan, and said, "Hurry up and eat, I'll tell you how to go out after eating." Leng Xuan politely said, and then asked: "Old man, do you have the custom of offering sacrifices to gods here?"
Hearing his question, the old man sighed lightly, and then said with a gloomy face: "In the past, we have always had good weather here, no disasters and no diseases. However, recently, for some unknown reason, every night in the valley, There will be strange noises. Moreover, every few days, someone will disappear for no reason. Because of this, everyone is anxious, so Dao Luo is asked to open the altar and worship the gods, hoping that this disaster can be pacified. "
