I am a fairy

Chapter 100 Tiger-Headed Devil
It's getting dark.

The wizard came to the slope again.

She seemed very anxious and couldn't wait to start the next day.

The wizard's eyes swept over the mountain people who were on high alert below, but a somewhat special person appeared among the crowd, and the wizard saw him at a glance.

"Liu Hu!" The wizard called out the man's name.

Liu Hu was the head of the police force in Xihe County. He was born and raised here, and his family had lived here for generations.

He has the blood of the mountain people and can speak their dialect. His family has believed in and even worshipped witches for generations.

In a way.

He was also part of the mountain people, but he left the mountains and lived in the city earlier.

For the wizard, his coming here was not a surprise, but the wizard specially chose him.

The mountain people naturally have their own excellent qualities, but they still lack capable and wise leaders, especially when they are required to do something very important and difficult.

If you want to lead such a group of people to get things done without causing any trouble, you must find someone who is capable and can get things done. It won't work if you just rely on someone who grew up in the mountains and can't read or write.

And the person who is currently valued is Liu Hu.

When Liu Hu heard the shaman calling him, he immediately walked forward from the crowd and knelt in front of the shaman.

The witch asked him, "Liu Hu, once you join the Tiangong Clan, you can't leave. Even your descendants will be like this. Don't you regret giving up your job as a servant and working here?"

Liu Hu immediately replied: "Liu Hu is just a small errand boy. If I can follow the witch, I am not afraid of going through mountains of swords and seas of fire. Wherever the witch points me, Liu Hu will never refuse."

In recent months, Liu Hu has gained more knowledge and broadened his horizons, and his perspective on issues has also changed.

He knew that as a small official with no money and no background, he would never be able to make any progress in Xihe County.

He originally wanted to get close to Jia Gui, but later found that although Jia Gui might be able to give him something, it could not change his fate.

But if you follow a wizard, you can change your fate.

not to mention.

Recently even Jia Gui has come to curry favor with the witch, and Liu Hu has noticed all of this.

The witch nodded and said, "From now on, your soul will belong to Yun Zhongjun, whether it is your body in life or your soul after death."

Liu Hu was awed and bowed his head to the ground: "Yes."

The witch said: "If you dare to betray me, I will personally send you to the underworld, even if you are at the ends of the earth."

Liu Hu shuddered: "How dare Liu Hu."

After the witch confirmed Liu Hu's wish, he waved his hand and two witches, a man and a woman, came up, each holding two things in their hands.

In order to build a temple within five days, the temple cannot be small and must accommodate a certain number of people.

This is no simple matter.

Naturally, this requires some power and technology that people of this era find incredible.

However, if the purpose is just to build a temple, there is no need to pay such a price. If so, there must be a greater purpose behind doing so.

The shaman looked to the left and saw a "tiger head" in the witch's hand.

This is a helmet that looks like a tiger's head. It is red and black with tiger stripes.

A ghost helmet.

Liu Hu is the leader of the Tiangong tribe. His next trial task is to build a temple, and his next formal task is to repair the dike or even assist in the construction of a reservoir.

The power of the Ghost Helmet will tell him how to do it, how to "teach" the Tiangong people to use various tools, how to turn the ground into steel, and how to turn stones into mud.

Just like the mask that guided those mandrills in the past, and also like the mask that controlled the "evil spirits" in the iron sand hell to work all day long.

Divine Witch: “Put it on.”

Liu Hu: “Yes.”

Then the witch came forward, and Liu Hu respectfully took the ghost helmet and put it on.

He didn't know how to use this "divine object", he just put it on his head carefully.

But this thing seemed to move on its own. As soon as Liu Hu put it on, it made a strange noise.

"Kakaka!"

Liu Hu's body froze and he dared not move.

But the helmet automatically began to adjust and then buckled itself.

It was pitch black inside the helmet. Liu Hu was a little scared and swallowed a few times.

"What exactly is this?"

"What will happen next?"

He felt as if he was locked up by something, not just his body, but also the soul hidden within his body.

Can never be separated from it.

In the darkness, wonderful heavenly music gradually rang in his ears.

When Liu Hu raised his head, the darkness in front of him was torn apart bit by bit, and everything around him began to come into view.

Suddenly, a light suddenly appeared on the hillside behind the wizard.

"Light, where does the light come from?"

Liu Hu looked over immediately, and from that strange perspective, he saw layers of light converging from all directions, which was extremely magical.

Finally, the light joined together on the hillside, and an illusory temple appeared on the hillside.

Liu Hu vaguely understood something, and that was what he was going to do next.

On that hillside.

Make the imaginary temple real.

Just looking over the hillside, there seemed to be a thousand-foot-high light surging behind the hill, as if behind it, there was something incredible being nurtured.

Divine Witch: "Did you see it?"

Liu Hu: “I see.”

In a sense, Liu Hu now began to possess the status of a ghost or god.

Well, just like that mandrill.

However, he only had the ghost helmet, but no talisman.

It also means that although he can master some incredible powers in the eyes of others through the Ghost Helmet, he is being driven by others.

Whoever holds the talisman can command others.

However, Liu Hu enjoyed it.

He felt that everything was like a dream. He was just a small errand boy, destined to be born and die in Xihe County all his life, but today he could have such a wonderful experience.

Divine wizard: "This is what the Tiangong clan has to do. When you put on this ghost helmet, you will be the ghost under the seat of Yunzhongjun."

Liu Hu: "Ghosts and gods?"

Divine witch: "When alive, you are a human being. After death, you become a ghost. Life and death never cease."

Liu Hu: "I am willing to be the guardian of the gods and witches, and I am willing to be commanded by Yunzhongjun."

At this time, the witch on the right side of the shaman also came forward.

Looking closely, one can see that what she is holding in her hands is a tiger-skin cloak, which she put on Liu Hu herself.

Liu Hulian said he didn't dare, and finally tied the strap around his neck himself.

At this moment, Liu Hu was wearing a tiger-like ghost helmet and a tiger-skin cloak.

Its figure is tall and mighty, and it carries a ferocious aura like a tiger. It really looks like a tiger standing up.

Liu Hu turned around and all the mountain people looked at him.

Moonlit night.

"Roar!"

Faintly, the mountain people seemed to really hear the roar of a tiger, and Liu Hu seemed to be really about to transform into a man-eating tiger and pounce down from a high place.

Many people were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their legs went weak.
-
Walk from the hillside to the riverside.

The shaman was dressed in a black military uniform, and was followed by shamans and witches holding lanterns. The moon embroidered with silver threads behind him reflected a faint light, but it was obvious enough in the dark night.

Looking from behind, it looked like there was a silver moon on the river.

Liu Hu followed carefully behind, but from the perspective of others, it looked like a tiger spirit or a demon was waiting nearby.

The wizard stood by the river and looked into the distance.

"almost."

The shaman took the lamp from the witch beside him and handed it to Liu Hu.

"You carry it."

Liu Hu held the lantern. This burly man was very careful, for fear of breaking the glass lantern.

He had seen this treasure, which was said to be brought down from heaven by the gods, in the shrine in the clouds, but this was the first time he held such a magic weapon in his hands.

He was very nervous and his palms were sweaty.

Liu Hu: "Sorcerer, what should I do?"

The shaman said: "Attract the dragon."

Liu Hu: “Ah?”

The witch said: "In the future, you will always have to do these things. The mission of the Tiangong clan cannot be separated from the dragon."

Liu Hu became even more nervous: "Liu Hu is just a rustic man, I am afraid he will mess up the affairs of the gods and witches."

Divine Witch: "You have done a lot in Xihe County, so you have the ability. As for the rest, the power of ghosts and gods will guide you on how to accomplish it."

After saying this, the witch no longer paid any attention to Liu Hu.

She began to hold the talisman in her hand and summon the dragon species Baxia in the river.

"I now obey the order of Lord Yunzhong and summon the wandering dragons from all corners of the world to obey my orders."

"The Dharma water is vast and the Dharma rain is heavy."

"The sky is full of clouds and thunder is rumbling."

"The four wandering dragons, listen to my orders, follow my orders, and come quickly."

The witch silently chanted the spell. Of course, she remembered Yun Zhongjun's instructions not to ride a dragon easily, although she felt that her status was not enough to suppress the dragon.

But this time she summoned the dragon again for other reasons.

Liu Hu held the lantern high.

The light from the glass lamps sprinkled on the riverside and the water surface, and the air was filled with the sound of unclear scriptures and mantras. It seemed that a mysterious power was spreading farther and farther with the light and the mantras, and finally fell into the ears of a certain being.

There was finally movement in the river.

In the darkness, a clumsy giant broke through the water, its huge head swaying and raised high, looking towards the water.

"dragon."

"The dragon is coming."

The mountain people, who had become known as the Tiangong Clan, were in a panic. Some wanted to escape, but when they saw the witch standing in front of them, they finally calmed down.

Some people fell to their knees, trembling.

"Oh no, the dragon is going to eat people."

"No, the dragon vomited something."

"What did you vomit?"

"can not see clearly."

Under the fearful gazes of the crowd, the huge creature swimming in the river opened its mouth towards the sky and spat out something long and thick.

It was a set of supports or something like a transport pipe.

The brackets unfolded layer by layer, turned into pipes that continued to extend, and finally pointed to the shore.

Then a huge amount of stuff fell out of the dragon's belly through the pipe and piled up on the riverside.

Continuous and endless.

After the water piled up into several small hills by the river, the dragon gradually left and disappeared in the waves.

Only then did the Tiangong people dare to stand up and go forward to take a look.
-
at dusk.

The sun sets outside the city, and the flowers in the peony garden bloom like fire.

The old Yin-Yang Taoist brought the fat and thin Taoists quietly to the peony garden. When they arrived outside the courtyard gate, they told the servants guarding outside their identities and said that they wanted to pay a visit to the witch.

"Please inform me."

These servants were not brought by the witch, but were slaves and tenants arranged by the Prince of Lucheng to look after the manor.

After hearing the origins of the Yin-Yang Taoist, he said, "The witch is not here."

The old Yin-Yang Taoist seemed extremely surprised: "Oh, she's not here. Then may I ask where the witch has gone? Is there anything wrong?"

It sounded as if they had just come here to visit and say hello, and had no idea what the wizard would do next.

The servant at the gate replied, "I don't know. How can I dare to ask the gods and witches about their actions? I only know that they seem to have gone to the riverside. Many people came from the other side of the river today."

The Yin-Yang Taoist priest and the fat and thin Taoist priest looked at each other. This was something they had never known before: "Oh, who is coming?"

The servant glanced at them and said, "How should I know?"

At this point, the servant looked at them suspiciously: "Aren't you from Xihe County on the other side? Don't you know?"

Yin Yang Taoist: "We came earlier, so we don't know what happened later."

Taoist He quickly asked, "Do you know where those people went?"

The servant became suspicious and stopped answering.

There was no other way, the Yin-Yang Taoist priest and the fat and thin Taoist priests had to leave.

Taoist He said, "So many people have come from the other side of the river. They must have something to do. It must be related to the temple that the witch wants to build. The three of us will go to the chosen temple site and take a look!"

The old Yin-Yang Taoist said immediately, "That's right, that's right. Who knows if the Divine Wizard has any difficulties or weaknesses. Who knows if we can help him out or do something about it."

Then the two of them looked at Taoist Ao. After all, Taoist Ao was most familiar with this place and had heard the detailed location of the temple.

Taoist He: "What are you looking at? Lead the way!"

The old Yin-Yang Taoist said: "Hurry up, don't delay the work of the God and the witch."

He said this as if he was indispensable to what was to come and he was of great importance and indispensable.

Taoist Ao looked at the two of them and muttered.

"I haven't been in Lucheng for long. The streets and alleys in the city are okay, but I'm really unfamiliar with the roads outside the city, especially this side."

The peony garden and the selected temple site were not too far away, only a few miles away.

But the wild road is not easy to walk on, as there are many ridges and trees on the road, and it is winding.

As we walked, the sky became pitch dark.

"Did we take the wrong path?"

"It should be this way."

As they thought, they accidentally ran into the witch while walking, and then the old Yin-Yang Taoist priest shamelessly rubbed against them just like before.

In this way, you can see the gods and witches performing magic again. The old Taoist always believes that as long as you watch and learn more, you will be able to gain enlightenment one day.

But when they finally reached the high slope in the dark, they found that there was no one there.

This was originally a barren wasteland with no human habitation around it. There were no trees on the slope, only wild grass.

Yin Yang Taoist: "Why is there no one?"

Taoist He: "Are you sure?"

Taoist Ao: "It must be right, it is here."

Yin Yang Taoist: "Why build a temple here?"

Taoist He suddenly spotted a faint shadow by the river: "Over there."

They looked over immediately.

Then he noticed that there were many overlapping figures swaying on the river bank, and it seemed that there were more than a hundred people.

These people gathered by the river, seemingly holding some grand ceremony, but it was now coming to an end.

“What are these people doing?”

"Could it be that this is the person summoned by the witch from Xihe County?"

"I don't know."

Afterwards, the Taoists saw those people pushing wheelbarrows and transporting a large amount of things here.

These people were all wearing the same uniform and had their mouths and noses covered with cloth, looking extremely mysterious.

He was holding some strange tools in his hands, and no one knew what they were for.

"I'm coming."

From a distance, the Taoists came forward, wanting to pay their respects to the wizard.

But the wizard didn't see it and was hit on the head with a stick.

As the team got closer, the three of them suddenly discovered that the person standing in front of the team was actually a demon.

A standing tiger is walking under the moonlight holding a lantern, and behind it are layers of people wearing strange costumes and holding weird tools. This scene really gives people a bad feeling, as if seeing the legendary tiger leading ghosts walking at night.

Especially the dark red tiger head, which looks majestic, and its eyes and stripes give off a sense of choosing its prey.

When the cold wind blew, the three Taoists were so frightened that they dared not move forward.

He hid in a ditch for a moment and dared not make a sound.

"What, what?"

"what?"

"I can't see clearly!"

"What's that thing walking in front?"

"tiger?"

"There is no tiger like that."

"demon?"

"Have you seen the witch?"

"Didn't see it!"

After the wizard arranged the matters, he did not come along, because everything that followed would be completed by Liu Hu under the guidance of the Ghost God Helmet, who would then lead everyone.

When the "tiger demon" and "ghost" passed by in a mighty procession, the three men finally popped their heads out of the ravine and looked into the distance.

Those people carried their things up the hillside, where they hung lights and seemed to be doing something.

But the distance is too far and I can't see clearly.

The Yin-Yang Taoist looked at the He Taoist and said, "Go and take a look."

Taoist He pointed at himself with his eyes wide open, then waved his hands repeatedly: "I can't do it, I can't do it. My skinny arms and legs are not even enough for a tiger to eat."

The old Yin-Yang Taoist immediately looked at Taoist Ao and asked, "Are you going?"

Taoist Ao shrank his neck and muttered, "I won't go over there. He doesn't have enough to eat, but I have enough to eat!"

The Taoists pushed each other away, and no one was willing to go forward to find out what was going on at night.

The Yin-Yang Taoist priest was furious: "You are such a coward. You always say how determined you are to follow the Tao, but you become cowardly at the critical moment. You can only rely on me, the Taoist priest, for everything."

After the Yin-Yang Taoist finished speaking, he took out a pill from his arms.

Dan makes cowards brave.

After swallowing this pill, my life will be in my own hands.

However, the Taoist Yin Yang took out the elixir and risked his life, which frightened the Taoists He and Ao so much that they quickly stopped his actions.

Normally, the old Taoist would think clearly, except when he went astray in his practice. But it would be a different story if he swallowed the elixir.

"No, no, no, Taoist Master, now is not the time to take the pill!"

The old Taoist took drugs and went crazy, and they were afraid.

At this time, the "tiger demon" in the distance arranged a personal task and came back along the path with a lantern, as if he was going back to the river to get something, or seemed to be on patrol.

The three men no longer dared to make a noise. They put their heads in the ditch and dared not move.

that's it.

The three of them watched from a distance that the "henchmen" were acting mysteriously on the hillside. Hundreds of people were digging and leveling the ground on the hillside, and then they seemed to be pouring something, stirring something, and finally smearing something.

The three middle-aged and elderly Taoists stared with their eyes blurred, but could not see anything.

After staying up all night, I woke up the next day in a daze.

At daybreak, Taoist He pushed the two people beside him and crawled out of the ravine.

"Ah, cut."

"Hum hum."

The three of them sneezed and sniffed, stumbled down the slope, and their faces were full of fear.

because.

When I came here yesterday, it was a slope of messy wasteland, but now it has turned into a large piece of gray rock.
