Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 105 Appearance in front of others
All eyes were focused on Jiang Yue, making him feel solemn and dignified.

Following the elder's eye signal, Jiang Yue slowly opened his mouth, his magnetic voice spreading far with the blessing of his qi and blood.

"In the twenty-fourth year of the Yongjia reign of the Wei Dynasty, on the occasion of the New Year, the people of Qingyang Town pay respect to the mountain god."

"The mountains are vast, the ridges are steep, the food is delicious, and the fruits are fragrant; I pray for a safe and sound new year; may the mountain spirits receive blessings and bless the mountain villages. I respectfully inform the mountain gods, and hope they will enjoy the feast."

"."

The sacrificial text was very long and bloated, but Jiang Yue's voice was full of magnetism, and was amplified by his energy and blood, as if it struck people's hearts directly. Coupled with the musicians playing music, the drummers beating drums, and the condescending blessings, there was an aura that penetrated people's hearts.

After reciting the sacrificial text, Jiang Yue said loudly: "Kill the prey and sacrifice to the mountain god!"

Several hunters below the stage received orders and carried the bundled wild deer up the hillside and killed the live deer on the high platform.

The gushing deer blood was spilled in front of the mountain temple, and the smell of blood filled the air.

This further aroused the hunters' ferocity, and the people in the audience howled one after another, expressing their wishes for the New Year.

The heads of three wild deer were cut off and placed neatly on the altar. In addition, there were many fruits and vegetables picked from the mountains filling the altar.

The huge incense burner is in the middle of the altar. After killing the live deer as a sacrifice, the next step is to burn incense to the mountain god.

Jiang Yue held three long incense sticks, lit them with a torch, held them with both hands, and inserted them into the incense burner.

The statue in the mountain temple broke for a moment, but at this time there were so many people and the cheers were so loud that Jiang Yue didn't notice it.

"Please tell the mountain god that Fu Wei is still enjoying your meal."

"I, Jiang Yue, the humble servant, ask the Mountain God to accept my worship and enjoy our offerings."

Jiang Yue followed the procedure and bowed.

The statue in the mountain temple was completely shattered.

After another bow, the brick walls of the mountain temple began to shake.

After the third bow, the mountain temple suddenly collapsed, smoke and dust rose up, and the people below the stage were all stunned. The musicians stopped playing, the drummers stopped beating, and the three village elders looked at Jiang Yue in disbelief.

Could it be that Jiang Yue's fate is too tough, and even the mountain god cannot bear his worship? !
At this moment of silence, the collapsed mountain temple erupted with violent smoke and dust again, the rubble of the ruins of the mountain temple was blown away, and a cellar lid flew out from it.

What followed was an extremely terrifying roar.

One after another, hunched humanoid ghosts crawled out of the ruins, their eyes bloodshot, roaring and running down the hillside, killing the hunters gathered there.

Jiang Yue looked carefully and found that there were actually ten ghosts!
The people screamed and retreated in fear as the evil spirits rushed down the hillside.

Jiang Yue was well prepared for this. He had long anticipated that the ghosts might appear at the mountain god sacrifice, so he placed his weapons under the altar. However, he did not expect that all the ghosts were hiding in the cellar under the mountain god temple.

"Here come the ghosts, the mountain god sacrifice site."

Jiang Yue activated the mountain patrol token and sent a message to Yue Jiuhua and the other two.

Afterwards, he shouted to the three village elders beside him to get out of the way. At the same time, he lowered his body and stretched out his arm. The precious bow Xiaoyue and the quiver filled with black arrows and black armor arrows all fell into his hands. He hooked his toes again, and the three-pointed, double-edged sword flew into the air and stuck on the altar.

Ten ghosts rushed down the hillside. The ones closest to them were the actors from the Yu Family Troupe. The actors, who were all wearing makeup and costumes, were so scared that their legs went weak and they couldn't even walk.

The main reason is that the ghosts are too creepy. Each of them has a human-shaped ghost with purple and blue skin, crawling hunched over, with disheveled hair, and red light emitting from their eyes. Ordinary people would be frightened when they see them.

Just as Jiang Yue took out his weapon, the evil ghost had already rushed in front of the Yu family.

what--

The members of the Yu Family Troupe screamed, their bodies trembled uncontrollably, and they retreated one after another. Some fell off the stage, some put their colleagues in the troupe in front of themselves, and some ran away in fear.

The head of the Yu family troupe was waving a long sword, protecting his daughter who was in costume behind him. He wanted to fight with the ghost in front of him, but was slapped away by the ghost!

Then the ghost roared and rushed towards the little girl behind the head of the Yu family.

Seeing this, Jiang Yue quickly drew his bow and shot arrows at the demon's head.

He was at a high point with a wide field of vision, making it easy for him to aim at the target.

The bowstring burst out with a thunderous sound, and the arrow was like a meteor.

But the minions were too fast, and the arrows shot from the fifteen-stone bows could not keep up with their speed.

All ten arrows missed their target and were easily avoided by the ghosts.

"come!"

Jiang Yue was afraid that the evil spirit would continue to rush down the hillside and into the crowd of people, so he swung his three-pointed, double-edged sword and directly cut his palm.

呲味——

Blood spurted out.

The blood of warriors is extremely attractive to the ghosts. Jiang Yue flicked his hands and sprinkled the blood on the ghosts.

roar-

The eyes of the minions became even more bloodshot, and they suddenly turned around and rushed towards Jiang Yue. Seeing this, the members of the Yu Family came to their senses and hurriedly retreated away from the stage on the hillside.

Whoosh whoosh—

Jiang Yue continued to shoot the bow, and the Black Armor Arrows were soon used up, and the Black Armor Arrows were also emptied in an instant. Unfortunately, the Black Armor Arrows did not hit the fast-moving ghost. The Black Armor Arrows did hit one, but the lethality of the Black Armor Arrow was not enough, and it did not kill the ghost, but instead stimulated the ghost's ferocity.

During the gap in the arrow shooting, the ghosts jumped onto the high platform built for sacrifice with just a few leaps and rushed towards Jiang Yue.

The altar was overturned and the incense ashes were scattered.

The people's eyes were all focused on the high platform, watching Jiang Yue holding a three-pointed, double-edged sword and fighting ten evil spirits alone.

"They are all beginner ghosts. The tiger really put a lot of effort into killing me."

Jiang Yue sneered in his heart.

These ghost minions all have the strength of the initial stage. If they are surrounded on all sides, long weapons like the three-pointed, double-edged sword will not be able to exert their power and they are likely to be bitten to death by the ghost minions.

Jiang Yue wielded the three-pointed, double-edged sword in his hand tightly, preventing the minions from attacking him from all angles.

As long as you are not besieged, you can defeat them one by one and kill all the minions soon!
Jiang Yue seized the opportunity and suddenly stopped waving the three-pointed, double-edged sword in his hand. Red blood spread out, and he exerted force from his waist, sweeping the blade out fiercely.

Open mountains and cut off peaks!
The furnace in his body surged, bursting out with astonishing energy and blood, causing the knife to be incredibly fast and powerful!
The two minions in front of him had no time to dodge and were cut in half by the three-pointed, double-edged sword.

"good chance!"

Seeing that the encirclement of the ghosts had been broken, Jiang Yue suddenly took a step forward to adjust his position. At the same time, he slashed with the three-pointed, double-edged sword, cutting the heads of the two ghosts in half.

A ghost won't die unless its head is destroyed, so its head must be cut off.

After this knife, the minions seized the opportunity and surrounded Jiang Yue to kill him, but now there were two less minions, so Jiang Yue could no longer be afraid of them.

On the high platform, Jiang Yue held a three-pointed, double-edged sword in his hand and fought bloody battles with the evil spirits. Wherever the sword passed, the evil spirits were all cut off and blood spurted out.

The people below the stage stared in amazement, feeling that every move Jiang Yue made on the stage was full of powerful beauty.

The little girl of the Yu family had already hidden in the crowd, with traces of tears on her face painted in costume. Her beautiful eyes moved as she stared at the fight on the stage, her fists clenched tightly, and she was extremely nervous.

The battle on the stage was still fierce. Jiang Yue stabbed out with Water Dragon Yin again, piercing the ghost's head. The burst of force directly shattered the ghost's body.

With a sweep of the knife tip, another ghost was cut in half, and its head was crushed by Jiang Yue's foot.

Swish, swish, swish - as the number of minions decreased, the remaining three minions could no longer pose any threat to Jiang Yue and turned around to escape.

But how could Jiang Yue do as they wish? !

Jiang Yue leaped forward fiercely, slashing down with his three-pointed, double-edged sword, chopping a ghost into two halves vertically. Then he chopped it horizontally, cutting the ghost in half, and crushing its head easily.

The last ghost wanted to rush into the crowd, but before it could jump out, it was chopped into two by Jiang Yue.

All ten minions were dead. Jiang Yue held a giant weapon in his hand, wore a chief priest robe, and tied a white jade dust belt around his waist. His tall figure looked like a god!

The people in the audience were stunned. Three village elders came out from behind the tree tremblingly, staring at Jiang Yue in a daze, unable to speak.

"Three village elders, please don't come over yet."

Jiang Yue held the three-pointed, double-edged knife and checked the heads of the minions one by one to see if there were any that had not been destroyed. After he had checked them all and confirmed that all the minions were dead, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The people who were attending the mountain god sacrifice also reacted, and their cheers were like a tsunami, with joy in everyone's eyes for having survived a disaster.

Especially the members of the Yu Family, they were the closest to the ghost. If Jiang Yue had not shot the arrow in time and cut his own palm to attract the ghost's attention, they would all have been cut open by the ghost.

"Ten ghosts appeared during the mountain god festival. They were all killed. No civilians were injured."

Jiang Yue took the mountain patrol token, activated the photo-taking order, and reported the situation here to his immediate superior, his third senior brother Yuan Gang.

The aperture spreads out, recording everything on the scene, leaving behind both visual and audio footage.

"."

Jiang Yueyong said to the three village elders, "This creature is a ghost that likes to eat human organs. The tragedy of the Lin family and Sun Yayi was caused by the ghost. The ghost likes to eat people. Although the mountain god sacrifice is not complete, it should not be carried out. In addition, please ask the three village elders and the people not to cause panic."

"well."

The three village elders nodded rapidly, still not recovering from their panic.

Jiang Yue added energy to his voice and said loudly to the people below the stage: "Everyone, please disperse quickly."

His words carried an inexplicable persuasiveness, and the people all unconsciously agreed with them and dispersed like the tide.

After doing all this, Zhang Tie appeared in the distance.

He was breathing heavily, obviously having run all the way back after receiving the news.

Seeing the corpses of the minions all over the ground, Zhang Tie hurriedly asked: "Brother Jiang, what's the situation?"

“No one died.”

Jiang Yue said: "This is not the place to talk, let's go back to the inn and talk."

"it is good!"

After saying that, Jiang Yue and Zhang Tie jumped off the platform and turned back to Luo's Inn in Qingyang Town.

However, before the two of them could leave, they were stopped by the owner of the Yu Family Troupe.

"My benefactor! My benefactor!"

The leader of the Yu Clan came over panting, stopped Jiang Yue, and asked hurriedly, "May I ask your name, benefactor? If it weren't for you, I'm afraid all of us in the Yu Clan would have died at the hands of that monster today."

Following behind him was the young girl from the Yu family.

"My name is Jiang Yue."

Jiang Yue cupped his hands and said in a deep voice: "It's just my duty, don't worry about the favor."

After saying that, Jiang Yue and Zhang Tie left quickly. They had to draft a document and report the matter to the county government. They also had to call the bailiffs to guard the scene and wait for the people from the county government to clean up the scene. There were a lot of things to deal with.

The head of the Yu family and the little girl of the Yu family looked at Jiang Yue's receding back and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

Jiang Yue's words "duty" saved more than a dozen lives of the Yu family.

"Boss."

At this time, the members of the Yu family also rushed over, temporarily got rid of their fear, and calmed down a lot.

"Old Eight, you don't have to stay in the Yu family anymore."

The head of the Yu family troupe pointed at the actor who had used his own family members to shield his body. He was ranked eighth in the Yu family troupe and was called Old Eight.

"Boss, I."

"What do you mean? Pack your bedding and get out of here! You bastard who's using his family as a shield when things get tough."

The head of the Yu family troupe didn't give him any explanation and slapped him twice.

Lao Ba knew he was in the wrong and left with red eyes.

The head of the Yu family looked at the others and said in a deep voice: "We survived this disaster thanks to Jiang Engong's rescue. Although others may not think highly of this little thing, we must remember that repaying kindness is the rule of our Yu family!"

"Go back and recuperate for a few days. I won't charge you for the New Year's performance in Qingyang Town."

"There are less than ten days left until the Chinese New Year. Everyone is working overtime to come up with a new song and new text."

Most of the opera troupes travel around the country and visit many places.

There are even many drama troupes that have strong martial arts masters, or even Shinto masters. Because the Great Zhou Dynasty attaches great importance to drama and is supported by the government, and there are regulations that the sources of the drama in the Great Zhou Dynasty must be authentic, many people with strong strength will get into the drama industry and earn money from the government.

The best way for the troupe to repay their gratitude is to write a play, make it into a opera, and pass it down from generation to generation.

Just like now, the head of the Yu family troupe is already thinking about turning today's events into a drama and passing it on to future generations.
-
Luo's Inn.

Jiang Yue had just ordered the yamen runners to take people to maintain the scene and not allow any villagers to approach the altar.

Then he and Zhang Tie drafted a document and instructed another yamen runner to submit it to the county government.

Jiang Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief after finishing these things.

"Brother Jiang, it's a good thing you happened to be presiding over the mountain god sacrifice, otherwise if someone died, we would not be able to become mountain patrol officers."

Zhang Tie clasped his fists in thanks.

"The duty lies."

Jiang Yue waved his hand and continued, "This time, these ghosts are hiding in the cellar under the mountain temple. The ghosts found last time were also in the mountain temple. Does this mean that these ghosts like to stay in the mountain temple? But I think it is necessary to check all the mountain temples in the mountains."

"Makes sense."

Zhang Tie said in a deep voice: "I will arrange some people to go into the mountains and search every mountain temple."

"Okay! Let's go together. I'm afraid ordinary yamen runners can't handle the ghosts."

Jiang Yue said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the patrol tokens on their waists lit up at the same time.

Yue Jiuhua's anxious voice rang out.

"I have already reported the Beast God Cult's traces to Lord Yuan. Please send someone to the county government office immediately."

Jiang Yue and Zhang Tie were both shocked.

The Beast God Cult is here!
