Chapter 21: God or God?
When my master and I were wandering around in the dilapidated houses in the village, with spiders all over our heads and faces, a minivan suddenly lost control on the straight road outside the village and rushed into the rice fields. Many people were seriously injured.
It would take a long time for the ambulance in the city to arrive, so the injured were first treated in Lao Fan's clinic. During the chaos, Sheng Yupo suddenly shook her whole body, jumped and jumped, chanted and sang, and then said that I was offended.
To the tree god, Atong's death and the car rollover just now are warnings that a big sacrifice must be held again, and I have to kowtow in person to apologize in order to appease the tree god's anger, otherwise the whole village will suffer.
When things got to this point, people who believed in her took her words as an imperial edict and started to take action immediately. People who didn't believe in her saw through her true colors and made it clear that she was deceiving people with her lies and using the name of gods to amass wealth and increase her reputation.
.But unfortunately, the series of weird and bizarre casualties caused more than 80% of the villagers to side with her, and those who opposed her did not dare to say anything.
What makes people even more suspicious is that the village cadres personally brought people to "arrest" me and asked me to kowtow to apologize, and I had to pay for the expenses of this big sacrifice. My excuses were of no use. Master and I just insisted
They pulled them to the foot of three large camphor trees, where hundreds of people had gathered. The candles were brightly lit, cigarettes were curling up, and a large number of offerings were being brought in, including whole cattle, cattle, pigs, and whole sheep.
If I really have to pay for this big festival, I will go bankrupt.
Most people glared at me, but fortunately no one threw eggs at me. Eggs were quite valuable in the countryside at that time. Finally, my master and I were pushed in front of Sheng Yupo. She squinted her eyes and had a look on her face.
He couldn't hide his pride, and his half-hearted smile made people shudder.
"It's him, it's him. He chopped down the tree god and brought a monster from outside. He is the cause of all bad things. He is the sinner!" Sheng Yupo suddenly jumped up, pointed at me and screamed exaggeratedly.
Yelled.
Everyone was in an uproar and cursed, but I calmed down in the face of this situation. When the voice calmed down for a while, I shouted loudly: "Listen to me, everyone, my family did cut down camphor branches. If the tree god really wants to blame, he will too."
Punish me, why do I harm others when I am fine?"
Some people woke up and nodded one after another. I then said: "Since these three big trees are the protectors of the village, they should protect our safety. Why do they harm innocent people and kill people? Only evil spirits can harm people.
The righteous God will not harm anyone..."
Shengyupo screamed: "He is talking nonsense. The disasters in our village are all caused by the monsters he brought. He couldn't die by force, but he harmed others!"
I raised my voice to cover up the noise: "All of this happened because I beat her son for stealing my chicken. In order to get revenge, she has been spreading rumors about me and harming people. Can't you see it?
This is the real reason, this is the truth!”
Sheng Yupo shouted: "He started to do strange things after he came back. This is the evidence. When he came back, he looked like a dead person, that is, the monster was attached to him. Now the monster woke up, left his body, and began to cause harm."
People!"
I really didn’t expect the old witch’s reaction and eloquence to be so good. I immediately counterattacked: “Fart, you keep saying that the tree god is angry and harming people, so you have to sacrifice to the tree god. Now you say that there is a monster in me and I am capricious. You can see that you
What I said are all lies. I am a man, a people's teacher, and I have nothing to do with ghosts and gods. Instead, you, an old witch, pretended to be a ghost. You were possessed by a monster and you confused right and wrong, and in turn framed me. If you have the guts, you can ask your gods to appear.
Show it to everyone, do you dare?"
Shengyupo made a series of unspeakable curse words, saying that my master cast a spell to save me, which is the best proof. Many people have heard that my grandma said that there is a demon fox in me.
My grandma likes to gossip like most of the old people in the village, so she vividly told many of her friends about how my master saved me. Unexpectedly, it now became evidence that she was better than Yu Po. I have never been inferior to others when it comes to speaking, even against a shrew.
The fierce woman was not afraid and argued with Sheng Yu Po. My biggest reason was that I beat her son for stealing the chicken, and she was retaliating.
I'm afraid this kind of argument and scolding will never come to fruition. The villagers were watching on three levels inside and outside, their eyes turning around. It seemed that what I said made sense, but when Sheng Yu Po spoke, she felt that what she said made sense.
I don’t know who to believe at all. But one thing is certain, I am the first man in history who can argue with Sheng Yu Po without losing. The whole village, including my mother and my master, don’t know that I have this ability.
Afterwards, my master said: "If I had known you had such a good eloquence, I wouldn't have had to endure it for so long. I would have gone to her house to kill you!"
Damn it, what's the big deal about yelling at a bitch?
By the way, Granny Shengyu and I were so quarreling that the sky was dark and the sun and the moon were dim. It was dark and still cloudy. At this time, a group of uninvited guests separated from the crowd and rushed in. It was Fan Qiang leading a group of Butterfly Gang ruffians. It turned out that he heard
She said that my mother and I had a fierce argument and were about to start a fight, so we hurriedly brought a group of people to help.
My eyes suddenly lit up, the opportunity had come! I pointed at Fan Qiang and shouted: "Fan Qiang, you are the boss of the Butterfly Gang (the boss of this village's branch), and you are also a celebrity in the village. A man dares to do what he wants, so let's say it here
Make it clear whether Atong was killed by your mother using evil methods!"
Fan Qiang was stunned, and Sheng Yu Po's face immediately changed. Before she could speak, I shouted again: "You swore a blood oath, and if you tell lies, the whole family will die!"
Fan Qiang's face turned red, and veins were twitching on his forehead. He valued his oaths and loyalty, and he had always had strong opinions on his mother, especially when Sheng Yu Po killed Atong and made him a human being. He hated his mother to the extreme.
But when he saw his mother's pale, frightened and even desperate face, and her gray hair, his heart softened again. No matter how hateful she was, it was his mother after all. How could he target her?
Hundreds of people were so nervous that they held their breath. If Fan Qiang admits that his mother killed Atong, then there is no need to argue about other things. This is real ironclad evidence. But will Fan Qiang say it? I am also very nervous.
Waiting.
Fan Qiang's face changed several times, and he suddenly yelled: "Why don't you make a fuss about it? There are no gods in this world. They are all the ones raised by you prostitutes who are pretending to be gods and ghosts. If you light up the incense with bird feathers, get out of here, get out of here!"
I said coldly: "Don't dare to say it. If you don't dare to say it, it means admitting it!"
Fan Qiang was angry: "I'll prove to you that there are no gods or magic in this world, and it's impossible to kill people!" After saying that, he rushed towards the big camphor tree with his knife, trying to chop it down.
Sheng Yupo was frightened and rushed over to grab his arm and begged: "You can't chop, you must not chop, there really are gods..."
Fan Qiang raised his foot and kicked Sheng Yupo in the abdomen. Sheng Yupo fell backward, but she grabbed the machete with both hands and held it tightly. Blood immediately dripped down. Sheng Yupo screamed: "You can't."
Cut it, you can’t cut it, you might as well cut me to death!”
Fan Qiang twitched the knife, but failed to pull it out. Sheng Yupo's hand was cut and more blood gushed out. Fan Qiang became even more furious. He threw away the knife and walked to the first big camphor tree in two steps, pulled off his shorts and dug out the knife.
When the guy comes out, he releases water into the big camphor tree.
Sheng Yupo suddenly lost strength while holding the knife and fell backward. When she got up, Fan Qiang's urine had already splashed on the big camphor tree. She immediately let out a scream. The scream was extremely terrifying, and it was worse than the death of a close relative.
Mom is still sad.
Fan Qiang laughed wildly: "Did you see it, did you see it? This is the god you worship, what can you do to me? Come and suck my dick, bullshit gods can't suck dick, there are no gods, no magic
, it’s all a lie!”
I suddenly felt a little pity for Fan Qiang. He is indeed a bad guy, but at least he has not lost his humanity. His purpose of doing this is just to prove to people, especially to the people of the Butterfly Gang, that Sheng Yupo will not use evil.
The law kills people, he does it to protect his mother!
The people of the Butterfly Gang cheered and applauded. In their eyes, Fan Qiang was a hero. The myth that Red Guards once fell into a coma after cutting down trees has been broken. Facts have proved that there is no god, and they are the powerful ones.
The faces of the villagers were ugly. The gods they believed in did not react at all when they were pissed and insulted in public. So wouldn't it be ridiculous for them to kneel down and worship?
I suddenly shivered, and I felt a voice roaring that made the earth tremble. There was an invisible blood mist and an unsmellable smell of blood permeating the air, just like the feeling I had in my dream that night. But
This feeling disappeared just for a moment.
Master looked at me in panic and murmured: "It's not good, it's not good, it happened after all. I'm afraid there will be a big disaster!"
Sheng Yupo's hands were dripping with blood, but she didn't notice it at all. She looked like she was in a state of despair, screaming at the top of her lungs: "It's over, it's over, you are all going to die..."
Damn, this pair of sworn enemies have something in common at the moment, but apart from me, there is no other audience. People quickly dispersed. Some people had their spiritual support collapsed and could not bear to leave, and some people were afraid.
After being implicated, they ran away in a panic. Some people simply did not believe it and would never believe the words of the magic stick and the goddess again.
Although I was a little shocked at the time, I didn't take it too seriously. At best, it was just a big tree. How could it turn the world upside down? After such a scene, Sheng Yu Po had no face to harass me anymore with her monstrous words, right?
My mother hurriedly took me home, and my master and grandma also walked with me. On the way, I felt more and more wrong. There was a haze-like fog that was getting thicker, the smell of blood was getting heavier, and there was an invisible...
The pressure made me feel breathless. The dogs in the village began to bark crazily, and then the pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, and ducks all began to stir and scream. The terror was like a giant claw grabbing me and holding me tightly.
I'm suffocating.
I suddenly found that the smell at this moment was a bit familiar. I had this smell when I dreamed about the blood mist that day. I also had this smell when I touched the first big camphor tree. I also had this smell when I sensed three monsters on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
That domineering, irritable, and arrogant spirit!
Is that big camphor tree not only not a god, but also a monster?
