Chapter 513 The White Moonlight of Powerful Officials [1v3] (17)

Those villagers outside the temple dare not enter for a long time.

They lingered for a while, and after seeing that there was really no movement inside, they sighed and prepared to turn around and leave.

However, before taking two steps, one of them shouted.

"Look, the Shenjun Temple is on fire!!!"

Several people turned around in shock, only to find that a raging fire had really ignited in the temple.

Although the torrential rain had stopped outside, the surrounding area was still unbearably humid.

In this environment, the Shenjun Temple can still catch such a big fire.

Everyone showed a look of horror.

"It must be that the god is angry, this is the true fire of the phoenix!"

With an exclamation, everyone knelt down and kept prostrating in the direction of the Shenjun Temple, begging for forgiveness.

Amidst the fire, a graceful figure rushed out, trying to escape under the cover of black smoke.

A villager spotted her sharply, "Isn't that Liu Qiqi?!"

The rage washed away the fear of the crowd, and they rushed forward and grabbed this tattered, somewhat crazy woman.

"Did you set fire to the Shenjun Temple? You crazy woman!"

"You must have offended Shenjun, you dare to hide in Shenjun's temple!"

"Go, take her away and give it to Wu Xian, Lord Wu Xian will deal with her!"

Bai Wu pretended to sob and struggled twice.

But the villagers completely ignored her physical condition, tied her hands and feet tightly, lifted her up and walked to the town.

Amidst the verbal abuse and discussions of the villagers on the road, Bai Wu gradually understood the ins and outs of the matter.

Liu Qiqi is the only daughter of Liu Yuanwai in the town.

The Liu family has been in business for generations and has a solid family background.

Liu Yuanwai is also an old man, even if it is a daughter, he regards her as the apple of his eye and raises her up tenderly.

Liu Qiqi soon became a big girl, knowledgeable and courteous, with outstanding appearance, which attracted many dignitaries from far and near to propose marriage.

However, Liu Yuanwai has no intention of marrying off his daughter.

Lingnan Town is very close to Lingguang Mountain where the temple is located, and the people in the town believe in Lingguang God even more, and they have reached a state of obsession.

In order to better disseminate the god's will and expand believers, the temple has set up a Wuxian as a priest in each village and town.

Wu Xian is in charge of various sacrificial activities in a place, and his power and prestige are even greater than that of the mayor and the county magistrate.

And Liu Yuanwai has very close contact with Wu Xian in Lingnan Town due to his own reasons.

His belief in the gods was also affected by it to the point of becoming obsessed.

Wu Xian told him that his daughter Liu Qiqi had a blessed face and was highly regarded by the gods.

If she is recommended by him, she is likely to become a goddess and go to the temple to worship the Lord Lingguang.

After hearing the news, Liu Yuanwai was so excited that he stayed up all night, and immediately rejected all the marriage proposals.

Because there are regulations in the temple, anyone who works in the temple cannot marry for life.

They must dedicate everything to the Lord Lingguang.

It must be pure, kind, loving, and sincere.

This is also the principle that the temple has always followed.

But Liu Qiqi didn't think so.

The young and ignorant girl is full of infinite reverie about the affairs of men and women.

She didn't want to be a goddess, and she didn't want to spend the rest of her life in that temple with a cold idol.

Under the coercion and temptation of her father, the girl gradually became rebellious and began to run away from home frequently.

It was during this process that she probably got acquainted with the emperor who was visiting privately in Weifu.

Liu Yuanwai didn't know about this, he just thought that his daughter was strong-tempered and didn't like restraint, so he simply turned a blind eye.

But then Wu Xian found him and said that he had submitted his resignation to the temple, and the temple agreed to Liu Qiqi as a goddess.

The news spread to Lingnan Town, and everyone in the town cheered for it.

A goddess who is about to serve in the temple has appeared in Lingnan Town, which has never happened before.

So Liu Yuanwai happily took his daughter back.

Before she could tell her daughter the news, she was shocked to find that she was actually a month pregnant.

When the news got out, Wu Xian was furious, saying that what she did was despising and blaspheming the god, and she would be punished by the god.

Unbearable to be humiliated by family style, Liu Yuanwai insisted on forcing his daughter to have an abortion, and even Mrs. Liu felt ashamed.

An unmarried daughter is pregnant, which is a great humiliation for a strict family.

What's more, Liu Qiqi was chosen as Goddess.

But Liu Qiqi refused to confess the truth no matter what, even if he was beaten by Liu Yuanwaiguan at home, he would not reveal anything.

Immediately afterwards, strange things began to happen frequently in Lingnan Town.

Either this house caught fire, or that house was stolen.

There was even an unsolved case of a girl missing.

The whole town was thrown into panic.

Everyone believed that it was Liu Qiqi who offended the gods, causing the gods to no longer protect their town, and then causing the evil spirits to come out and make trouble.

So they crazily offered incense to the temple of the gods in order to ask for forgiveness from the gods.

But those who went to the Shenjun Temple ended up with strange accidents.

Wu Xian said that it was because they lost the trust of the god, so the god didn't want them to come close.

The people in the town became even more panicked, and they all pointed their finger at Liu Qiqi, asking her to apologise with death.

At the same time, news of the late emperor's death came, coupled with the physical torture, Liu Qiqi became insane and escaped.

These villagers were entrusted by Liu Yuanwai and Wu Xian to arrest her and bring her back.

Bai Wu guessed that Liu Qiqi might have miscarried during this process.

But she couldn't accept the fact that the child was gone, so she stuffed the sponge into her clothes to pretend she was still pregnant.

In fact, death is not a kind of relief for her.

With her situation, even if people in the palace find out and take her back, Bai Cang and Bai Yan will not let her have a good life.

Instead of suffering in a place where people can't spit out bones.

It is better to get out of the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible.

She took one last look at the Shenjun Temple that she had set on fire.

The fire is burning more and more vigorously, and it has the potential to sweep the world.

In the bright red flames, Bai Wu vaguely saw the phantom of the phoenix statue.

God...

Ah.

How can there be any gods.

It's just a gimmick fabricated by people with a heart in their desire to gain power and prestige.

These villagers are in dire straits because of their beliefs.

But what is the temple, which has always been known to protect the world, doing?

Is it just watching from the sidelines?
Still don't even know there is such a small place not far from Lingguang Mountain.

...

In this way, Bai Wu was carried back to Lingnan Town.

The villagers were not idle, and sent her directly to the Liu Mansion.

It was late at night, the gate of Liu Mansion was closed tightly, and the villagers could only enter through the small gate in the backyard, and then threw her into the woodshed.

Bai Wu could read the disgust, fear, and anger in their eyes.

No one felt sorry for her suffering and devastation.

She brushed aside her deliberately tousled hair, revealing the scarlet beauty mole, and her eyes were also shining with a cold light.

Now that this town has lost the blessing of the gods.

Then let her be a demon to mess up the town even more.
