It has only been one day, but her identity is completely different. She is Shana, a strange woman hidden in the city, and the goddess with the most noble status in this hermit village.
When she thought about last night when the second elder Pu Ru reluctantly admitted her identity as a goddess, Shana giggled in bed.
Since the battle of the Ghost King, Li Rentian has become many times more powerful than before when we met again. After possessing the Shura Demon Arms, its strength has reached another level, even when facing the Rakshasa from the eighteenth floor of hell. Evil ghost, Li Rentian also lost his life quite easily.
Li Rentian, who suppressed the Rakshasa Demon with absolute strength, cut off the Rakshasa Demon's bone sword in less than two minutes. In the end, if Shana hadn't shouted to stop, Li Rentian would have been addicted to the beating. He almost "accidentally" killed the Rakshasa demon. In the end, with the slightest regret that he could not get the demon's core, Li Rentian returned to the Asura world, leaving only a lost Puru. Elder.
Li Rentian's super strength and the murderous aura originating from the Asura world all prove that this is not a foreign object that lives in the human world, but a real product of another world. At this point, Pu Ru If Zhi persists, he will only be unhappy, and being able to summon evil spirits from the Asura world is enough to prove Shana's status as a goddess.
Therefore, although Elder Puru was unwilling, he finally recognized Shana's identity. At this point, Shana's identity as a goddess was finally confirmed.
After getting up from bed, Shana was in a good mood. Things were developing in the direction she expected. Now that the identity of the goddess had been determined, the next thing to do was to spread the news of the goddess's return to Tianwai Village. I know how the village will react after hearing the news, whether it will vote as a whole, or continue to maintain a confrontational attitude.
Shana didn't know and was too lazy to think about it. As long as she acted exactly according to the plan, Shana wouldn't think too much about the outcome. After all, there is no so-called perfect plan in this world. Sometimes, people It's not as good as God's calculation.
After freshening up, the girl Su Qing who was assigned to serve Shana, the goddess, took her to the great elder's house. The great elder's house was already full of people. Kong Kong and I were brought over by the maid to have breakfast after we had freshened up. Yes, but as soon as I entered the house, I found that the second elder Boru and the third elder Boxin had already arrived. If the goddess Shana was also included, there would be enough breakfast for five or six people to share this day's breakfast.
People at a table were eating vegetable porridge that had been cooked slowly over a slow fire. I was already hungry. I could smell the fragrance of the vegetable porridge and couldn't help but move my index finger. I didn't care about the image at the moment and drank several bowls in a row. Shana She had to bear it the hardest. She had never been a lady. Now because of her status as a goddess, she naturally couldn't look too ugly when eating. Therefore, after eating a bowl of porridge, others were basically full, but her belly was only full. Half and half, I wanted to add more, but I was afraid of being laughed at, so in the end I could only look at the remaining porridge in the bowl sadly, said it was done, and stood up from my seat.
Next, everyone discussed in the great elder's room how to spread the news to Tianwai Village, and the person who wanted to spread the news was also very important. First of all, he had to have a certain status in the village, and secondly, he needed a certain level of skill. You must know that there is a feud between the two villages. It would be unfair if the person who brought the news was captured by them as a sneak attack before they arrived at Tianwai Village.
After admitting Shana's identity, the second elder Puru's attitude towards her is no longer as hostile as before, but it can't be said to be kind either. He just says what an elder should say appropriately, which is considered a good act. The great elder Granny Pujing saw the beginning and secretly put down a stone in her heart.
Having said that, if Li Rentian hadn't been summoned by Shana last night and spared the Rakshasa demon even though he had an absolute advantage last night, maybe the second elder wouldn't have his current attitude. You have to know the situation at that time. Next, even if Li Rentian kills the evil Rakshasa ghost, Elder Puru will have to swallow the bad breath in her stomach, because she is the goddess Chaopan Shana first, so even if the ghost servant is killed, others I won¡¯t say that Shana is bad.
But Shana let go of her ghost job despite that advantage. She couldn't help but gain a reputation for tolerance. It also made Elder Puru hate Shana's mother-in-law, and he couldn't find any reason or excuse in a short time. Make things difficult for her, otherwise, her second elder's face may not be able to find a place in the village.
But when everyone discussed for a long time but still could not decide on a suitable candidate, a villager hurriedly came to the door of the great elder to ask for an audience.
After letting him in, the male villager, who was in his forties, said: "Elder, there is a man outside the village who asked to see him and said he was the messenger from Tianwai Village. I heard from him that their village chief Naha also received the patron saint. The angel's dream, in which the patron saint tasks him to take Tianwai Village back toReturned to our village, now Tianwai Village first sent a messenger to discuss the return, and also brought back the Xingtian Demon Ax that was taken away from our village, saying it was a sign of sincerity in returning. Do you think, how should this matter be handled? "
"Is this happening?" the great elder asked curiously.
People in the room looked at each other in confusion. The goddess had just returned yesterday, and the news had not spread to Tianwai Village yet. It would be better for them to come here first.
If there is something weird, there must be something weird.
Xia Na thought in her heart that she only arrived at the village yesterday. If Tianwai Village got the news so quickly, there are only two possibilities. One is that the village should do what they should do, and the other is that they really got the dream of the guardian angel.
Both of these possibilities were in the range of 50 to 50, and Shana couldn't tell which one was more likely. Finally, she thought of a way, so she got up and came to Granny Pujing, leaned next to her ear and explained something. , the great elder said as he got up from his chair.
"Bring the messenger from Tianwai Village to the temple, we will meet him at the temple."
After the villagers responded "yes", they withdrew.
The great elder then said to us: "Let's go to the temple together."
Except for the suspicious expressions on the faces of the second and third elders, even I couldn't guess what kind of medicine Shana was selling in this gourd. I saw her and the girl Su Qing also biting their ears for a while, and then the two of them said goodbye and went ahead. He wanted to ask Shana, but was stopped by her eyes, so he had no choice but to give up.
When we arrived at the temple, we couldn't wait long. The villager brought another man to see us. The messenger from Tianwai Village was about thirty years old. He had a fair face and beardless appearance, and a pair of flexible eyes. We were all waiting for him. A flash crossed his face, and then a smile appeared on his face.
Xin Yong held a dark battle ax with both hands. Even from a distance, I could clearly feel waves of vicious aura emanating from the black axe.
"I am Li Peng from Jiangxi Province. On the order of the village chief, I came here with the Xingtian Demon Ax to show my sincerity in returning to our village."
The messenger Li Peng from Jiangxi raised the Heaven-Xing Demon Ax high. The Great Elder Pu Jing nodded slightly, and Elder Pu Ru walked up to the messenger and took the demon ax.
When he came back, Elder Puru nodded to the elder, indicating that it was indeed the Demonic Ax of Punishing Heaven. Granny Pujing then said: "We Hermit Village welcome the return of Tianwai Village, but we don't know why the village chief of Tianwai Village If Naha doesn't come in person, knowing that the return of Tianwai Village is a big deal, why should you be the messenger to decide all the matters?"
Faced with the great elder's questioning, the messenger showed no panic on his face. He could only be heard saying in a neither arrogant nor humble voice: "Replying to the great elder, the head of this village learned that the goddess had returned because of the patron saint's dream. Returning to the Hermitage Village, the angel also ordered Tianwai Village to return on the same day in his dream, but the return was unusual. The village held an emergency meeting for the whole village today, so he was unable to come. Jiangxi Li. Yipeng was just a messenger, so naturally It is impossible to decide on various matters, but if the elders of Hermit Village have any requests, Li Peng from Jiangxi will definitely bring them to you. Please rest assured that the elders will take care of themselves in two or three days at most after the village chief has finished handling the village affairs. Please do not doubt the sincerity of our village if you come to visit us in person.¡±
Everything the messenger said was reasonable, and the great elder could only say, "That's very good." However, after the elder finished speaking, Jiangxi Li Peng said again: "I don't know where the goddess is now. I wonder if Li Yupeng from Jiangxi can meet the goddess, so that he can give an explanation to the village chief when he returns to the village."
Grandma Pujing nodded, then raised her palms and clapped her hands, and immediately a girl came in from outside the temple.
"Please come here, the goddess." Grandma Pujing said.
After a while, two figures came in from outside the temple. When I saw them, I almost screamed, but I still swallowed what I wanted to say.
In addition to the first elder, the second elder and the third elder also had strange expressions on their faces. It turned out that the two people who walked in were indeed Shana and Su Qing, but they seemed to have reversed their roles, because Su Qing was wearing the same clothes as yesterday. Shana was wearing a goddess outfit at night, but Shana was just wearing a simple female outfit. She looked like a serving girl, not the most respected goddess in the Hermit Village.
When he saw Xia Na and Su Qing coming in, the messenger Jiangxi Li Yipeng glanced at the two people quickly, then bowed deeply to Suqing and said: "Dear goddess, Jiangxi Li Yipeng from Xiatianwai Village represents the village chief. and all the villagers, extend their highest greetings to the goddess."
As soon as Jiangxi Li Peng said these words, Shana had a bad smile on her face, and the weird expressions of the second and third elders were even worse. I suddenly realized, and finally knew why Shana and the second daughter had changed their identities. There was no other reason. , just to test this so-called messenger.
"It's true." Shana laughed while sitting on a futon.
The messenger is meeting youAfter seeing the fake goddess Suqing, Granny Pujing asked a girl to "invite" the messenger to go down to rest. Of course, the so-called rest was just a grandiose statement on the surface. The actual situation was that the great elder had ordered several reliable villagers to Put the messenger under strict house arrest.
The reason for doing this is because the messenger Jiangxi Li Yipeng really regarded Su Qing as a goddess.
"Don't forget, he said before that the village of Tianwai Village received a dream from the guardian angel, and the village chief asked him to greet me, the goddess, on behalf of the whole village. If this is the case, then the villagers of Tianwai Village The chief must have known my appearance through the guardian angel in the dream, but just now, the messenger clearly didn't recognize me. I don't believe that the chief of Tianwai Village would forget such an important thing. Tell this messenger my appearance. Therefore, from the fact that the messenger did not recognize me, we can infer that the head of Tianwai Village did not receive any so-called dream metaphor at all, and his only purpose in doing so was nothing more than The news of the return of the goddess must be blocked in the Hermit Village." Shana smiled and said: "Because if we believe what they say, then we will arrange the return of Tianwai Village naturally and will not spread the news to the Hermit Village. It was a good plan to go over there. If I hadn't suddenly thought of switching identities with Suqing to test the authenticity of the Tianwai Village dialect, I would have almost been fooled by them."
"But." A question arose in my mind, so I said: "The problem is that we haven't spread the news of the return of the goddess to Tianwai Village yet. How did they know the news? Is it really like what I said yesterday? "
I did not say the word "internal intelligence" because the meaning of my words was obvious enough. Obviously, there must be an internal intelligence from Tianwai Village hidden in the Hermit Village. Otherwise, how would they have gotten the news about Shana's return.
The expressions on the faces of the three elders changed, and the second elder Pu Ru stood up immediately.
¡°I¡¯m going to ask that Jiangxi Li Peng now who they bribed and why they knew about the return of the goddess.¡±
Seeing that the second elder was so excited that he wanted to interrogate the person, Shana quickly stood up and said, "Wait a minute, second elder, you will only alert the enemy."
Elder Puru turned around and said angrily: "Then what do you think we should do? Now that they from Tianwai Village have put their hands into our village, do we still have to tolerate it in every possible way?"
"No, I don't mean to be patient." Shana shook her head: "If my guess is correct, Tianwai Village should take action in the next few days. I think they also know in their hearts that they have not accepted the dream of the gods. As they say, lies will always be exposed. Therefore, it would be best if the role of this messenger can paralyze us. Otherwise, even if we see through it, we will be busy with internal affairs and end up outside the world. Put aside the village affairs for the time being. In fact, they have indeed achieved their goal. Now that we know that there is an internal agent in Tianwai Village in the village, our first task is to find out the internal agent, otherwise all our arrangements will be meaningless. ."
"What the goddess said makes sense, Pu Ru, please sit down first. You are not young yet, why can't you get rid of this frizzy problem?" Grandma Pujing, the elder, also said.
"Okay." Elder Puru sighed and sat down: "Then you can tell me how to find out the culprit."
"What about this?" Shana showed a wry smile: "I don't know where to start, because after all, I have only been in the village for less than two days, and most of the people in the village don't know me yet, so I think this is the best way to find out the insider." The three elders should take more responsibility for the matter. After all, you have been in the village for a long time. If someone's behavior is different from usual, I think the three elders will be able to see it, and today's incident cannot be mentioned to other people. In case we know that there is an insider in the village, we must monitor the messenger Jiangxi Li Peng. Maybe the insider will contact him. Finally, please ask the three elders to talk to the messenger from time to time. Let's talk. Firstly, we can lower his vigilance and prevent him from knowing that he is under house arrest too quickly. Secondly, of course, we can see if we can find out anything from his mouth."
"fair enough."
After listening to what Shana said, the three elders basically agreed to her arrangement.
At this moment, Xia Na felt relieved. She clapped her hands and said, "Then, this is the basic arrangement. For the specific details, we will ask three elders to adapt accordingly. Next, Great Elder, is there anything secluded in this village? I have to stay in seclusion for a few days to heal my wounds."
When he heard that Shana was going to retreat to heal her injuries, Elder Bojing stood up nervously and said, "What, goddess, are you injured?"
Shana nodded helplessly and said: "In a recent incident, I fought with a ghost king-level evil spirit, and my body wasThe resentment of the other party has not been completely expelled yet, so now I only have half-skilled skills left. Before Tianwai Village takes any action, I want to step up the healing process and force the resentment out of my body so that I can regain my complete self. Skill will not drag everyone down because of this. "
"You can't say it's a drag but not a drag." Granny Pujing muttered. She took Shana's hand, pressed her pulse, and let go after a long while. "Sure enough, there is a lot of resentment hidden deep in the goddess's body. Although this resentment is suppressed now, your skill will also be reduced because of this, and if the resentment stays for too long, it is not a good thing after all. When I think about it, I wonder if there is a quiet place in the village where you can relax and heal."
The first elder was thinking carefully about where Shana could be healed. The third elder cordially asked Shana to ask questions. Only the second elder was indifferent, as if Shana's life and death were none of her business. Looking at her like this, I couldn't help but feel a little jealous. disgust.
"I thought of it." The elder laughed and said, "It seems that I am really old, how could I forget this good place?"
Granny Pujing called Shana and said: "On another hill away from the village, on the mountain called Bixiu Mountain, there is a forest called Red Maple Forest. There is a small pool in the forest. We call it the Changsheng Spring. Because the spring water inside has gathered the natural spiritual energy in this large mountain range, even ordinary people taking a dip in it will have the effect of strengthening their health. As long as the goddess soaks in the spring water for three to five hours, she will be able to If you cooperate with your own Tao power, no surprise, you will be able to regain all your skills today."
"Is there such a good place?" Shana's eyes lit up. "Then what are you waiting for? I'll go now."
"Don't worry." Granny Pujing said angrily: "Although that place is good, it is located in a hidden area. Unless you are very familiar with the mountains and forests, it is impossible to find that place easily, so you still have to look for it. I¡¯ll just take you there personally.¡±
Third Elder Boxin said in a rather regretful tone: "I know this place, but unfortunately I can't go up to a place like the Red Maple Forest."
"Otherwise, I will take the goddess myself." Grandma Pujing said. In fact, she had a more suitable candidate in mind, but she didn't want to force this matter on others, so she didn't say anything. Who knew what she said? As soon as he fell, the suitable candidate spoke on his own.
"I'll go."
The second elder, Puru, stood up and said, "First elder, you are already old, and besides, you still need to arrange many things in the village, so let me take the goddess to the Spring of Life."
As soon as I heard that Elder Pu Ru was going to take Shana there, I immediately thought of the bad relationship between her and Shana. I couldn't help but worry that she would take the opportunity to harm Shana. I was also afraid that it would be even worse if she was the insider of Tianwai Village, so As soon as the second elder finished speaking, I continued, "I'll go too."
The Great Elder looked at me with a troubled expression and said, "I'm afraid this is inconvenient. When the goddess is healing, she must remove all the clothes on her body and enter the pool naked, so that she can absorb the spiritual energy in the pool for her own use to the greatest extent. Therefore, it is not necessary to It¡¯s convenient to have a man around.¡±
"This" Even the great elder said so, but I couldn't find any reason to go along with him.
"You can rest assured." Second Elder Puru said coldly: "Although I have some unpleasantness with the goddess's mother-in-law, I won't do anything detrimental to the goddess, unless you think I am the insider?"
¡°¡¡¡¡±
After finishing the meal at noon and resting for a while, Elder Puru took Shana and set off. I watched the two figures disappear on the slope where they came in yesterday, and then returned to my dormitory to meditate. In fact, it's not just Shana who needs to be healed. My body and skills that were injured by Pluto also need to be recovered. However, compared to Shana, my recovery speed is obviously much faster. I believe that after another night, I will be back to my original state.
Let's talk about Shana. After leaving the village, Elder Puru took her towards Bixiu Mountain. During the walk, the two of them didn't talk. Shana wanted to break the silence several times, but when she saw When Elder Pu Ru's face turned cold as ice, he swallowed back what he wanted to say.
So the two of them crossed a mountain in this slightly embarrassing atmosphere. After spending two hours, they finally reached the top of Bixiu Mountain, and a red maple forest appeared in Shana's eyes.
