Chapter 489: Sacrificial Head

"Okay, okay, the Lantern Festival is over. Where can I get the red lanterns?"

When the ghost soldiers retreated and everyone was shocked and depressed, the people in Shima Town cheered and jumped for joy after they kowtowed.

When the ghost soldiers approached, it was also the end of the Lantern Festival. They also felt the lingering depression and shadow, but they only thought it was the depression of the gods watching at the end of the Lantern Festival.

This is a good sign!

Now that they have kowtowed, with the end of the Lantern Festival, the pressure has disappeared. Everyone's heart is like an invisible stone has been removed. Suddenly, they all become light and happy, like a stream, flowing over the rocks again.

"Hula..."

The first to react from the silence of the world were the people in this town. After they kowtowed, they felt that the lights in the town suddenly became bright again.

So they all stood up and celebrated. Although they didn't know what twists and turns had happened in this lantern blessing meeting, they felt that this blessing meeting was heavy and more important than every blessing meeting they had attended before.

While cheering, they naturally asked if there was any porridge, whether they should go to burn incense to the stone horse in the town together, and whether they should take the red lanterns on the altar back home to worship.

The central principle is that no matter whether it is the red lantern, the one-cent religion, or the stone horse and the old general at the entrance of the town, they should worship them all and share the rain and dew.

"It's over, it's over..."

In the main hall, Miaoshan Fairy also had an incredible feeling in a trance.

She looked at the ten large vats in front of her. The things inside seemed to be very peaceful. Faintly, there was an invisible luck rising above the stone horse town. She looked at the old elm tree beside her and even felt that the tree had a new vitality invisibly.

It's done?

She murmured to herself that this lantern festival was to exchange blessings for luck. With strong luck, she could take advantage of the situation and use the One-Cent Religion as a foundation to do great things.

When she took over this job earlier, she didn't think it was difficult. Now that she had dealt with it from beginning to end, she felt that there were many thrilling parts in the middle. It was incredible that she could get through it.

Bu Shi Niu worked hard for 20 years, but no one could really accomplish this great thing. How could she be the first one to accomplish it?

"It's done!"

Beside her, the eldest senior brother also smiled softly and patted the ten large vats with his hands. It seemed that even his expression was a little complicated:

"Junior sister, the senior brothers hid it from you earlier, making you think that this kind of thing is simple."

"But in fact, this kind of thing depends on the timing. If the timing is not right, it will be against the will of heaven and the easiest to do bad things. You are lucky to do it. You think that there will be no jujubes, so you give it a try. Anyway, even if it doesn't work, we can protect you."

"But now I didn't expect that you would be the first to do it. From now on, no one in the Eight Gates of Not Eating Oxen dares to disrespect you..."

"..."

"Ah?"

Miao Shan Fairy's eyes lit up. She seemed to want to hold back her expression, but her mouth couldn't help but grin, and she couldn't stop it. Invisibly, she sat more upright, and there were countless thoughts in her mind. I couldn't help but ask: "Then, what happened outside just now?"

"I just looked outside, and I only felt flying sand and rocks, and it was pitch black, but I couldn't see anything clearly..."

"..."

"Not only can you not see clearly?"

After hearing her words, the eldest brother also smiled bitterly, but raised his head and looked at the big seal tied to the branch on the top of the old elm tree. He sighed softly and said: "It's different from what I thought..."

"I thought that I would rely on it to save my life in the end, but I didn't expect that our leader is the real destined person, and his ability is much greater than we thought..."

"Of course, it's not just our leader, maybe, there are also the three uncles..."

"..."

"Ah?"

Miao Shan Fairy was shocked: "The uncles are back?"

At this time, the eldest brother just smiled and didn't speak.

But this is not a bad thing. Whether it is him or the old elm tree, there is only relief and joy in their hearts at this time.

Facing the question from Miao Shan Fairy, he just smiled and said in a low voice: "I can't explain it clearly. How can I, with my little Taoism, see through the methods of the uncles?"

"..."

"..."

"What the hell is this..."

In Shima Town, the Lantern Festival finally ended successfully. The people also brought their children and girls, or found a corner to sleep, or gathered around the fire pot, talking about their plans for the future, and when it was dawn, they set off to go back.

On the surrounding hills, there were also deep voices with regret and fear.

The second son of the Meng family had been beheaded long ago, and the head was taken away to drive away the ghost soldiers. The monkey wine sitting in the south had also put away the drum and ran back to the place where the eldest servant of the Meng family was killed before. Holding a lamp, he carefully checked the battlefield.

Whether it was a useless talisman, a broken bone, or an internal organ, as long as it was useful, he would pick it up one by one, with an extremely rigorous attitude.

And Erguotou kept holding his breath and guarding carefully until he was sure that the ghost soldiers had really retreated and the old ancestor of the Meng family who had been teased by them had indeed not found him. Only then did he suddenly breathe a sigh of relief, uttered a cry, and sat down on the ground.

There were some laughable sounds in her voice: "I was living a good life, but how could I be cheated by Lao Baigan, the old thief with thick eyes and big eyes, and be forced to offend that kind of thing..."

"If I had known that this kind of thing would happen this time, why would I be so polite and cautious to Meihua Alley in Mingzhou? I should just chase him away..."

"Still worried about getting into trouble, what's the point of worrying about it? What kind of trouble is bigger than this?"

"..."

The more she hated him, the more she felt that her wealth that she had carefully saved up was wasted by someone. She felt unbalanced in her heart:

"Why, you are so good at getting into trouble, but you bully me? Let me tell you, I have also set my sights on the treasure of the Hu family..."

"..."

"..."

In another place, Miss White Wine also hid half of her body behind a tree. When the noise really disappeared, she slowly breathed a sigh of relief. When she raised her hand, she put away the white gauze around her and put it back into her sleeve.

Then, she looked at the top of the mountain over there, in the direction where Hu Ma retreated the ghost soldiers, and turned away without saying a word.

‘Even if it was you, what you did this time was dangerous enough...’

‘The man holding the lantern said that you discovered something about the reincarnated. Is it really a great secret that made you go to such lengths? ’

‘…’

‘…’

“Huh, it should be fine...”

Hu Ma confirmed that the ghost soldiers had retreated, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He slowly restrained his own spirit and soul, and even the broken armor on his body and the boots on his feet disappeared, and returned to the old elm tree.

And the knife in his hand seemed to have drunk enough blood. Now he was satisfied and had restrained his ferocity. He held it in his hand, as quiet as ordinary iron. In fact, the knife had not been forged yet, and it could not be equipped with a comfortable handle or a suitable scabbard.

In the other hand, the head of the second son of the Meng family was a waste, so he could only hold it temporarily.

Standing in place, looking in several directions, he could feel that the three people who had just helped had left. He breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling a little heavy in his heart.

In fact, this time, Ben had also thought about whether he could rely entirely on Shou Sui's ability to kill the people of Tongyin Meng family, but the result was disappointing.

Impossible!

The ten surnames do have their own magic skills, and it is almost impossible to kill them with the skills of those outside the ten surnames.

However, fortunately, he had the help of the reincarnated people. At least in the eyes of outsiders, this thing is feasible, which is enough to achieve his goal.

However, from the movement just now, Hu Ma also vaguely realized that perhaps, the skills of the ten surnames were so powerful that only the reincarnated people were suitable to deal with them?

And is there any invisible connection here?

Thinking silently, he burned a stick of incense first, called Xiao Hongtang over, and saw that she was still holding a red lantern in her hand, so he smiled and comforted her, slowly led her down the mountain, and soon saw two rows of lanterns lit up in front, but someone came out to greet them.

Miao Shan Fairy, Bai Shanzi, followed them, and an old man dressed like a farmer, and the owner of the opera troupe who had been seen before. The ordinary disciples were not there, and everyone looked suspicious, as if they had something to say.

"I'm tired and need to rest first."

Hu Ma waved his hand to stop them, and then threw the head in his hand in front of them, saying: "If you want to do something big, someone must sacrifice the flag, right?"

"This..."

The person walking in front, looking at the head in his hand, felt silent for a moment, knowing what it meant, and had already known the result just now, but looking at it from a close distance, he still felt a shudder in his heart.

This is the head of a person who can invite three thousand ghost soldiers and drive them away in an instant...

Such a precious person, now with his head here, who can tell clearly how many opportunities and dangers there are for him to get into trouble?

"What?"

Looking at their tangled expressions, Hu Ma looked up at the group of monsters. Under the lantern light, he suddenly laughed, his eyebrows and eyes grim, and said: "Why, it is said that the bull-eater is determined to do great things, and he is very brave..."

"Now you don't dare?"

"..."

The troupe owner was looked at by Hu Ma like this. Obviously, this leader was only capable of entering the palace, which was far from his own, but his heart was shocked and the pressure doubled.

He took a deep breath, held it with both hands, and whispered: "I will obey the leader's order!"
