Chapter 231 The Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth [nine thousand words(1/4)
The moonlight is like snow, falling on the earth.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sun has risen.
Warm sunlight shines into the City God's Temple and falls on the brand-new City God statue, emitting a golden brilliance.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the temple.
I saw five men from the world holding swords and wearing chainmail walking in.
"We didn't catch that criminal thief this time."
"We didn't make any money, so we have no choice but to stay in this ruined temple today. In the evening, we will smear the people and enter the county town to find a family to take care of the autumn breeze."
"A few days ago, we stayed at that inn for one night. Seeing that there were a lot of guests, we could make a lot of money, so we went to that inn."
"Hey, the innkeeper's wife looks good to me..." As he said this, a lewd smile appeared on the man's face.
The last person also spoke: "We can't catch the Jiangyang thief, so we will find a similar person in the city to look at his head and collect the reward. If we give the government a little benefit to the head hunter, there will be no problem."
"Well, yes."
The other people nodded when they heard this.
"Hey, why is this city god statue erected again?"
The leader walked into the house and immediately saw the statue of the god on the altar.
"Maybe some wealthy family wants to reopen the City God's Temple. Hey, maybe we can wait here and deliver it to your door."
A few people didn't care. Anyway, even the demons from Lanruo Temple wouldn't come out in broad daylight, let alone the City God Temple.
"Hey, why is there a picture scroll here? It's actually a pretty boy."
With a look of disgust on his face, the man threw the scroll away and said, "I hate pretty boys the most." As he said that, he stepped up and stepped on her a few times.
"Haha, I think your wife was seduced by the pretty boy..."
Several people laughed.
They found a place at random, either lying down or leaning against a pillar to rest.
About half an hour later.
An old man carrying firewood walked into the Chenghuang Temple.
Behind him, there was a young couple, who were also carrying firewood behind them.
"Grandpa, why do you have to come here to worship every time you enter the city? The statues have all fallen over," Wang Ergou said with some dissatisfaction.
The wife on the side did not speak and followed silently.
"What do you know? A few decades ago, the City God's Temple was very effective." The old man turned around and glared at his grandson fiercely.
"Ling, if it's very clever, how did my parents die?" Wang Ergou sneered.
Hearing this, the old man wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute, and a sadness arose in his heart.
"If you don't want to worship, just stay outside and I'll go alone." The old man whispered.
When Wang Ergou heard this, he curled his lips and followed his grandfather in without saying anything.
Perhaps these Jianghu people stayed up all night last night to hunt down Jiangyang robbers, so they slept soundly here.
However, when the old man and his party walked in, they still woke up everyone.
"How dare you, old man, disturb your grandpa and me from sleeping? Get out of here, or I'll cut off your head to collect the reward." A big man glared at the old man fiercely.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, old man, I didn't know how many strong men were inside. I'm going to leave right now. I'm going to leave right now." The old man was startled, his face changed drastically, and he quickly grabbed his grandson, grandson, and wife and walked outside.
At this time, the big man's shout woke up his companions beside him.
As soon as the man saw the village girl, he swallowed his saliva.
"Stop, come here..." The man suddenly stood up and shouted at the three of them.
When the three of them heard this, they trembled all over and did not dare to run away. They just stood there with a look of horror on their faces.
"Yes, although she is not very good-looking, she is still a woman. I haven't eaten meat for a long time, so I will eat meat today." The man strode towards the three of them.
Then he pulled the village girl into his arms.
"What are you doing, what do you want to do?" Wang Ergou quickly wanted to pull his wife away.
"Go away, or I'll chop off your heads." The man kicked Wang Ergou away, who was trying to stop him, and at the same time, he also kicked the old man to the ground.
Immediately, he took the village girl and walked inside.
A look of humiliation flashed across Wang Ergou's frightened face. He took out a hatchet from the pile of firewood and was about to pounce on it with all his strength.
However, his grandfather pulled him back and said, "Sun, don't."
Although the old man also wanted to take out the hatchet and fight, there was only one end. The grandfather and grandson would be hacked to death, and the grandson's wife would not only be ruined, but she would also be killed.
At this time, a big man stood up, glanced at the big man who was smiling lewdly, and said: "I think this kid is a bit similar to that gangster."
"Oh? Really?" The other big men also came out and looked at the young man.
"I didn't see it."
"It seems, it's a bit similar."
"I didn't see it either, but no matter what, you all saw it, so just chop off his head and claim the reward."
"Haha, just in time, you guys go ahead and have some fun first, and you will come with me later."
When the old man in the yard heard this, his expression suddenly became extremely frightened.
Wang Ergou, on the other hand, paused for a moment, but anger welled up in his heart. He broke away from his grandfather and rushed forward with a hatchet.
"Haha, this kid still wants to resist." Seeing this, a big man reached out and pinched Wang Ergou's right hand that was holding the knife.
Then, he suddenly twisted, and there was a clicking sound, and Wang Ergou's arm was broken directly.
"Ah..." Wang Ergou screamed violently, his face full of pain.
The big man laughed, swung the big knife in his hand and slashed at Wang Ergou's neck.
If this knife was struck, Wang Ergou would only be separated from his body.
"How brave!" A voice suddenly sounded in the temple.
With a sound of "Bang!", the big knife in the big man's hand broke apart.
This incident directly changed the expressions of everyone present.
"Who? Who is pretending to be a ghost?" The big man who lost his weapon suddenly turned around and searched with his eyes.
Wang Ergou was also released, and he slowly knelt on the ground holding his broken arm, with a look of pain on his face.
"Ergou, Ergou, how are you?" The old man came to Wang Ergou with a look on his face, trembling all over and extremely worried.
The five Chinese characters immediately gathered together, and their expressions were extremely solemn.
"You hidden guy, do you dare to stand up for me, your grandpa?" A big man shouted sharply towards everyone around him.
No one responded to him.
"Kakaka..."
But there was a strange sound coming from the statue.
The eyes of the five people immediately fell on the statue.
I saw tiny cracks appearing from the statue.
In just a moment, the entire statue was covered.
"Bang!"
The statue suddenly exploded, revealing the figure of a young man with his eyes closed.
The next second, Zhou He's eyes suddenly opened, and a golden light bloomed from his eyes, but then disappeared.
"For raping a **woman, killing a good person and taking credit for your merits, I will sentence you to death!"
After the words fell, Zhou He didn't see any movement, and all five people were shocked, and then slowly collapsed to the ground, losing their lives.
Zhou He glanced at Wang Ergou, who had a look of pain on his face, waved his hand gently, and a healing spell was injected into his body.
Immediately, Wang Ergou's broken arm was seen to have healed automatically.
"It's fine, it doesn't hurt anymore."
"Thank you City God, thank you City God..." Wang Ergou had a look of surprise on his face.
Immediately, he thought of something, looked shocked, and quickly bowed his head.
"Thank you City God for saving my family..."
Not only Wang Ergou, but also the village girl immediately kowtowed and thanked him.
Especially the old man, with a fanatical look on his face, kowtowed crazily, even his head was bleeding.
"There is no need for this, please leave as soon as possible." Zhou He waved his big hand, helped the three of them up, and at the same time healed the old man's forehead.
