Chapter 697: Walking into the Fire Pit
"So that's the purpose?"
Hearing the shout from the iron-hand Peng, Hu Ma and the others in the field were enlightened. They had not seen through what kind of trick this man had been hit by, but now his purpose had been seen through.
It turns out that he, or the thing he was carrying, came here for the Dayangzhai Mountain Sacrifice?
"Brother, I don't know much, how can I have such an impact?"
Hu Ma realized this in her heart, and immediately lowered her voice and asked Old Altar Master Tang who was sitting next to her.
Tang Tan Master nodded slightly and said: "There is this saying in the old custom. Happy events must be paired with a sequence. This is called harmony and beauty, and it can be regarded as a happy event. Happy events can offset disasters, but You can also be overwhelmed by bad things."
"Especially, the village is preparing to sacrifice the mountain. The heaven and earth are the basis, and the ghosts and gods are the witnesses. It must be perfect. If something goes wrong, it means that things are not going well, and there is something that doesn't want to see us offering the mountain sacrifice. "
"It is precisely because offering sacrifices to the mountain is such a big deal, so you have to follow the rules and respect your status. If someone in the village is being detained for something like this, the reputation alone will not sound good."
"It is said that Master Shan will not accept such unfair offerings and forcefully sacrifices to the mountain. Not only will he not be able to gain blessings, but he may also bring disaster..."
His words made Hu Ma frown, and he looked at the dark Lao Yin Mountain around the stockade, and a strong feeling of depression arose in his heart.
Although Dayangzhaizi held sacrifices to the mountain in order to ward off disasters, it was actually to make the second master happy.
Whether it can really ward off disasters, no one in the world can say so.
So, who on earth came to destroy the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the mountain when he didn't even believe in the theory of preventing disaster, lest he could really avoid the disaster?
...At this time, he did not doubt others at all. There was no doubt that the person behind Iron Hand Peng must be coming towards him. Otherwise, no one would be so free and insist on destroying a village in the mountains to worship the mountain. thing.
"Everyone, everyone sit down, don't...don't move..."
And at the same critical point of Hu Ma's consciousness, while he was concentrating on thinking, the second master next to him saw the excitement in the village. He really wanted to kill everyone and beat out the iron-handed Master and Disciple Peng. He was also sweating. Come on, stretch out your hands and stop these people who want to take action.
In my heart, it seemed that I had made a difficult decision. I grinned hard and smiled at the iron-handed Peng, saying: "Peng...Master Peng, are you kidding..."
"I, I did call you master, but, a few kids..."
He turned his head, glanced at Hu Ma and the others, and said, "As you can see, these kids are all promising, but how can an old villager like me teach them such great skills?"
"Actually, it's just the children who make me happy and call me nice names. I understand that I can't be their master if I don't have the ability."
"That's exactly what I said. It's appropriate for me to kowtow to your old man, but they don't have to, right?"
"Indeed, they have learned a few moves from me, but these moves are not from our sect. I have not been lucky enough to enter the sect in this life, and I have never touched any of the unique skills in this sect, so what's the point? …It's not spread outside the story?”
"Um?"
Iron Shou Peng's expression suddenly changed. He never expected that the Second Master would say such a thing, and the words that followed were all in vain.
But when Hu Ma next to him heard this, his expression also changed.
The old patriarch next to him had already turned red with anxiety and cursed at the second master: "Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about again? Why do you start to act cowardly when things get serious? I am your brother and I will not teach this bully a lesson today. My brother's old bastard, I am not a human being…”
"elder brother…"
The second master felt sad and aggrieved at the same time, and said anxiously: "There are many guests in the village, and, besides, it seems that things have come to a head now..."
The old tribesman immediately understood that he was referring to the matter of offering sacrifices to the mountain, and the fiery man was slightly relieved, but he was still unhappy.
"That's a polite thing to say!"
At this time, a loud voice next to him shouted, it was the bald old Zhang. He squinted his eyes and said coldly: "Everyone in the field is from the door, don't you understand the rules?"
"What is said but not told outside? This is about your own unique skill."
"Can your wild tricks be applied to this level of rules?"
"We, the Red Lantern Lady Club, recruit a few people to join the club, and they have to explain these things clearly and clearly. Damn you..."
"...More ruthless than the Blood Food Gang!"
As people in the Shousui sect who have a lot of work to do, with inheritance and disciples, they can actually see the truth behind this matter very clearly.
No matter what else, this Iron Hand Peng, I don't know why, is trying to take this title by force. It is not the second master who is running for it, but obviously he is running for Hu Ma and a few younger ones.
If he really takes this position, he must be allowed to take his seat, and he must light the first incense stick when offering sacrifices to the mountain. If it is up to him, then he will have the blessing.
If he couldn't help it, Laoyinshan Dayangzhai would be completely disgraced.
The second master originally felt that Hu Ma and others had never learned anything real, and he did not want them to recognize this "master" because of him. For this matter, he would rather these young ones did not recognize him. Become your own master.
"You..." The iron-handed Peng, who was ridiculed by the bald old man, saw a certain decisiveness in the slumped expression of the second master, but he was slightly confused. He looked like a puppet suddenly stuck. It seemed like a moment.
And also during this pause, Hu Ma suddenly noticed something was wrong, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Woo..."
At this time, deep in the Laoyin Mountain, a whining wind suddenly started blowing, causing the trees to sway and the dead grass to fly away. The gloomy night seemed to be getting darker.
I had already made a slight move, and was about to rush out of the stronghold, but I saw that this gust of wind came and went as fast as it came. In an instant, it stopped. Every table in the stronghold was lit. The candles and braziers gradually stabilized.
From a distance, she saw Xiao Hongtang, who had just gone out on patrol, also come back. There seemed to be a look of surprise on her face. Hu Ma was slightly surprised: "Who is here? Even the tiger can't catch him?"
At this time, everyone in the village was dizzy by the wind. They realized that the village was not peaceful, so they all became vigilant.
Just as the awkwardness in their hearts was getting stronger and stronger, and after making that decision, the iron-hand Peng lost his words and seemed to be stunned for a moment, while Hu Ma sighed softly. He took a breath and stood up.
"Second Master, what you said is wrong."
He walked to the second master and supported him. This opening surprised everyone around him.
Then they all looked at Hu Ma and saw him smiling and saying to the second master: "Of course you are my master. Back then, my mother-in-law personally led me to worship you in the village outside. You are not my master. Who is?"
"Ask Datong and the others, who dares to deny Er Ye as their master?"
Zhou Liang, Zhao Zhu and others, all wearing armor, nodded vigorously when they heard this. Zhou Datong even shouted angrily: "Whoever bullies our master will have his head screwed off!"
After listening to Hu Ma's words, the second master was so moved that his old eyes were slightly red. He patted the back of Hu Ma's hand and said, "As long as you have this intention, you have great potential, so you can't waste time with me." here."
"If it's because of something and seeing the Second Master suffer, then what's the point of us being successful?"
Hu Ma had a cold face, patted the second master lightly, and then turned to look at Tie Shou Peng. He had not cast any spell, but with a serious look, in the eyes of others, it seemed that his figure was becoming extremely tall. Like a fierce **** standing in front of him, he said in a deep voice:
"Datong, please go sit down in the room and chat with me."
This Iron Hand Peng has been hit by some kind of trick, but it's too deep to be seen.
Logically speaking, it would be better to see the problem and then prescribe the right medicine, but he couldn't bear to see the second master being squeezed here, so he took it down first. No matter what the problem was, he could always find it.
Mr. Sun and Master Tang Tan who were present both understood what he meant and could only sigh. There was really no other way. The old patriarch and the people in the village cheered in unison, and Zhou Datong even jumped up to take it. people.
But the iron-hand Peng was motionless, just looking coldly, his eyebrows becoming more and more gloomy.
"No!"
Unexpectedly, the second master suddenly grabbed Hu Ma's palm with force, shook his head and said: "Boy Hu, if you really still recognize your second master, you can't capture him."
Hu Ma wanted to tell the second master in a low voice that there was something wrong with the iron-hand Peng, but he heard the second master also whispered: "I am not blind, and I can see that something is wrong with Master Peng, but what he said here today is also mine." A thorn in my heart.”
"The people in our village have their own rules and methods. We are not afraid of him talking!"
As he said that, his eyes slowly turned from Hu Ma's face to Zhou Datong and others, as well as guests from all walks of life. The clansmen in the village seemed to have some kind of cruelty.
The dejection in his bones was swept away, and his voice became louder, loudly saying: "Second Master, I am not shrewd, and I don't have much ability, but in my life, I have been a good person and I am not afraid to argue this point."
"Master Peng, I have been with you for eight years and three months, and I have learned a few tricks from you, but I am not afraid to say it today:"
"When I call you boss, I treat you as an elder."
"But I, Zhou Huai, don't recognize you as my master, and these few kids I taught have nothing to do with you. I'm not afraid that God will hear this."
As he said that, he suddenly turned around and said to the old patriarch: "Brother, if I love your brother, let someone light up the fire pit. Today, I am going to walk into the fire pit!"
"If I, Zhou Huai, do something wrong, then let this fire pit burn me to death. If I step down..."
"Master Peng, don't mention this title!"
Next to him, the drunken old patriarch was so startled that he sobered up for the most part. The elderly people in the mountains, including the old man Yangpi who came over to lend a hand, all lost their voices and said: "Walking into the fire pit? This, I haven't done this for many years..."
"You...you don't want to live?"
Even the stiff body of the iron-handed Peng trembled slightly, as if he was shaking.
