smuggler

Chapter 38
"Hurry up and move the Buddha statue away, or the designated person will be crushed to death." An old villager standing at the door shouted anxiously, stomping his feet.

The helpers who were crushed by the statue of the Snake Immortal were in great pain, howling terribly, their legs were twisted, probably completely useless, blood seeped out from under the statue, the scene was horrible.

"No hurries!"

Seeing the villagers go up to help, the butler of the Liu family's supervisor stood in front of the villagers with a stern face, and stopped them in a cold tone.

The blood permeated along the statue of the Snake Immortal and fully merged into the black soil.

The mud mixed with blood under the snake fairy statue turned bright red.

"I've lost all my blood after dragging it down, why is there no plan to save someone under the Snake King Statue?"

Some villagers muttered, and the voice of discussion gradually became louder.

Seeing this kind of scene, the villagers were a little dissatisfied. The supervisor's Liu family looked directly at the snake fairy statue, and seeing that the timing was almost right, they said indifferently: "Okay, pull them all out."

The statue of the snake fairy was slowly lifted up, and the villagers who were under the pressure were dragged out. They had long lost strength and howled, and two of them even passed out from the pain.

But the Liu family didn't ask any questions, and just took money to silence the mouths of this group of people, saying that blood is not easy to see in the temple, and asked them to carry them away quickly.

I stood by and stared at the indifferent actions of these people. Suddenly, I felt a gaze of indifference on me.

I turned my head slightly, and saw Granny Liu on the chair on the far right in the temple. Her gaze pierced through the crowd and landed on me, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.

I subconsciously avoided Granny Liu's gaze, lowered my head and pulled my aunt's sleeve, and then walked out with her.

Because of the blood, the Liu family said that they couldn't break ground today, but I had a faint feeling that something was wrong.

The statue of the Snake Immortal, soaked in the blood of the villagers, slowly melted away as if it had been absorbed. The Liu family's eyes were fiery, and there seemed to be anticipation in their eyes.

What is this Liu family going to do?
This dilapidated temple is very old, I have heard about it before, this temple was very popular in the early years, and there were many believers, but I don’t know why everyone avoided it overnight.

The Liu family came to our village, and building this snake fairy temple is by no means easy.

"Yaoyao, don't let your imagination run wild. The old lady of the Liu family has distributed not only money but also a lot of food to the village in the past two days. She is kind-hearted and will not do bad things."

"Huh?" I was a little dazed and looked at my aunt suspiciously.

My aunt said to me earnestly, "Actually, it may not be a good thing for you to marry into the Liu family. Mrs. Liu will definitely not treat you badly by doing good deeds."

I raised my head in a daze, looking at my aunt full of surprise, and suddenly felt that the aunt in front of me became a little strange.

When my aunt saw me staring at her like this, she froze for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Auntie is also doing it for your own good. If you don't want to hear it, auntie won't talk about it in the future."

When I got back to the house, I went in worriedly, but as expected, Chu Yuan still didn't wake up.

But it can also be seen that the dew collected by Ye Jian in the morning is effective, and the weakness of his soul has been slightly recovered, at least the snake scales on his body have receded.

"It seems that I can get up early tomorrow, so that I can collect more." Looking at his sleeping face, I secretly made up my mind.

In order to be able to get up before dawn, I went to bed early.

But there is only one bed in the room, and I can only lie next to him in an extremely unnatural way. There is no temperature on his body, and the cold air radiates from the inside out.

In order to collect more dew, I got up early and sneaked out of the courtyard before dawn.

Because of my experience, I collected more than half of the bamboo tubes, but I was so tired that my waist was about to break, and the pain was so painful.

On the way back, because one hand was supporting the sore back, one accidentally slipped and fell, and half of the hard-earned dew was sprinkled.

When I got back to the house, it was already daylight, and my waist was still in pain when I sat on the head of the bed. Seeing that there was only a small amount of dew left in the bamboo tube, my nose was sore, with an unspeakable bitterness.

"I collected more than half of it today. I was too stupid. I accidentally slipped when I was walking, and there was only a little left."

Looking at him with his eyes closed, I whispered with a wry smile: "Tomorrow, I will pick some more."

After a short rest, I followed the method yesterday, took a small sip, and quickly stuck it on his lips.

When I bent down, I felt heart-rending pain in my lower back.

On this day, the Snake Immortal Temple was actually erected.

The Snake Temple has been renovated, and the damaged Buddha statue has been replaced with a statue of the Snake God.

Today is the first stick of incense after the temple gate is opened, also called head incense.

There is a saying that the first stick of incense is the most effective, because of the snake disaster that happened in the village a few days ago and what they experienced, the villagers deeply believe in the snake fairy and hope to be blessed by the snake fairy.

So the villagers are scrambling to burn the first stick of incense.

I was really tired and sleepy, and my whole body was sore, so I didn't join in the fun.

Chu Yuan still didn't wake up, maybe the aura contained in the dew was still too thin for him.

On the second day, I endured the pain to collect a lot of dew, and it was the same on this day. Most of the villagers did not put incense on the first day.

But they also hope to burn incense for the Snake Fairy, and the villagers seem to have become devout believers of the Snake Fairy all of a sudden.

This day, after feeding the dew, I lay on the bedside and fell asleep drowsily.

When I woke up in a daze, a broad palm was gently rubbing my temples.

"you're awake?"

His face was pale, but his eyes were full of spring, and his thin lips seemed to smile.

"Are you alright?" I widened my eyes and carefully looked at this person who was still ill last night.

Surprised at first, then overjoyed for no reason: "I thought you..."

"Think I'm dead?" He leaned closer and said seriously, "For my husband, not only did I not die, but I also had a sweet dream. I dreamed that someone kissed me secretly."

I blushed, but I was sure that he couldn't notice how I fed him the dewdrops these two days, so I said, "You're almost dying, and you're still dreaming, you're not ashamed!"

After I finished speaking, I got up and was about to leave, but he stretched out his hand and pulled me back, falling on top of him.

Immediately, he leaned over slightly, exhaled slightly and said softly, "Even if my husband takes his last breath, it will be on your body."

The boat of friendship capsizes whenever it says it will, and a good straight man bends whenever it says it will!
You have already entered the gate of hell with half a foot, and you still have the heart to say this! ?
Seeing my glaring eyes, he laughed more wantonly, and was about to bow his head to kiss him lightly, so I quickly reached out and covered my mouth.

"do not!"

I shook my head vaguely.

But as soon as I moved, I hissed with pain in my back, and my face twisted in pain.

He seemed to notice that I was in unbearable pain, so he relaxed a little, and then reached out to lift my clothes.

"No!" I blushed and tried to stop it.
