C1462 Cataclysm(part Ii)

After what happened earlier, the villagers still had a trace of doubt in their hearts about Lin Bai being possessed by the ancestors. However, now that Grandma Zhu had thrown herself on the ground to worship him, that trace of doubt had been swept away.

For those who revered their ancestors from the bottom of their bones in the village, the ones who were closest to them were not those who were related by blood to the ancestors, but Grandma Zhu, the guardian of the ancestral tomb and its ancestral hall.

Now that Grandma Zhu had knelt and worshipped Lin Bai, then what was there to doubt about Lin Bai being possessed by a God of his ancestors?

After figuring out these joints, the mountain people's expressions immediately became more devout, their eyes full of confidence. Some of them even felt that they should obtain some offerings and candles to express their sincerity.

What was this old demoness trying to do? Upon seeing Grandma Zhu's appearance, Lin Bai's brows immediately furrowed.

It was just as he thought, the current Lin Bai did indeed look like he was possessed by a God from his ancestors. The wailing of ghosts happened too suddenly. If there was not an explanation that made the villagers feel that it was reasonable, all the blame would naturally be placed on him. If they were not careful, these villagers would become more resistant to it, and might even force themselves away.

Thus, when Lin Bai saw the scene in front of him, he immediately thought of Ghost Possession, the most ancient and widespread technique. Furthermore, from Lin Bai's memories, he felt that he had once witnessed a similar method before. Naturally, there were no flaws when he executed it.

Moreover, he had also used a few tricks to create that Baleful Yin Force under his feet. This made the villagers feel that what they had seen was extremely real, so they wouldn't suspect anything.

As for the name of the old clan head, the location where he hid his money and the amount he kept it, to Lin Bai, this was a piece of cake. He didn't know why, but after hearing the old chief's words, he felt as if something inside his brain started to rapidly arrange all the information. As long as he opened his mouth, he would be able to tell the whole story.

Both of his hands struck down together, and the show of gratitude grew even stronger. Just as Lin Bai felt that he was about to succeed, he did not expect Madam Zhu Gui to suddenly appear. Furthermore, the change in attitude from the beginning to the end was so great that he could not believe it.

Others didn't know what had happened earlier, but in Lin Bai's heart, it was as if something had happened to Qing'er. The whole stronghold

Apart from himself, only this old demoness could do such a thing! Since he and An Wenyuan were on the mountain, he naturally couldn't stir up such a strange scene to cause panic among the people. The target of the conflict was naturally this old demoness!

According to Soo Soo, there were too many doubts on Grandma Zhu's body. Even if she was still the same Grandma Zhu from before, it was worth considering. Moreover, the matter of the ancestral tomb being turned into a place for raising corpses was extremely likely to be related to this old man. It might even be something that she had single-handedly created.

Furthermore, from Lin Bai's point of view, with this old demoness's ability, it was impossible for her to not see that he was deliberately putting on an act!

However, it was precisely this person who was most likely the mastermind. Today, not only did he use a method of wailing like ghosts in the daytime to arouse the fear within the hearts of these mountain people, he even sincerely kowtowed to him.

However, Lin Bai would never be foolish enough to think that his methods had truly fooled this old thing just because of the old demoness's actions. If she was that stupid, why would she have had so much to do with Soo Soo and the corpse rearing grounds?

There must be something strange going on. This old witch had changed so much that she must have been hiding something. There was even a chance that she was releasing the smoke to divert her attention.

Even though his plans were not stopping, Lin Bai still could not understand the intention behind this old fellow's sudden display of piety. However, he did not want to care too much about this small change. As long as his plan was carried out smoothly and he could solve the problem of turning the ancestor's grave into a resting place, then everything would be firmly in his hands. No matter how this old thing struggled, he would not be able to turn the tides!

"Greetings, Ancestor! Please accept my respect!" Just as Lin Bai was hesitating, Madam Zhu's eyes flashed with a strange smile. She bowed and respectfully said, "I wonder what kind of teachings the ancestor gods have for us, we will definitely listen to everything they say!"

"I don't know what kind of lecture you dare to give me, but I don't know how you did it. So many things happened in the village, yet you didn't even notice when a great disaster was about to befall you!" The reason we asked you to guard the ancestral tombs and ancestral halls, to let you receive the protection of your ancestors' gods, is because we wanted you to protect the peace of our village.

Hearing Grandma Zhu's words, a mocking expression appeared on Lin Bai's face as he coldly berated her. Since this old demoness admitted that she had been possessed by a god, then she wouldn't be able to immediately fall out with her. After taking advantage of her mentality, Lin Bai decided to mock this old thing.

Furthermore, Lin Bai was very clear that if he wanted to completely solve the problem of the ancestral tombs turning into a place to raise corpses, the crux of the problem lay with this old demoness.

Regardless of whether the old thing in front of her was real or fake, in the eyes of the mountain people in the village, she was a true sacrificial granny. If he had acted rashly against her and tried to expel her, the mountaineers who were already used to the protection of Grandma Zhu would not have been able to accept his words. Perhaps there would have been even more unforeseen events that would have messed up their plans.

Thus, after weighing the pros and cons, Lin Bai decided to take advantage of the opportunity this old demoness had presented to him and bury her. With the help of his current situation, he would bury a thorn in the hearts of these mountain dwellers.

Moreover, if this old demoness was angered by his words, she could take the opportunity to deal with her in a fair and square manner. In any case, to these villagers, he was their ancestor's deity.

As expected, the moment Lin Bai said those words, the entire crowd burst into a cacophony of chatter. When everyone looked at Grandma Zhu, there was a hint of displeasure in their eyes. In their minds, it was indeed as Lin Bai had said. Why would they usually eat and drink with incomparable respect? The reason was to support and raise old granny Zhu Qi, so that they could use her methods to protect the safety of the village.

But now, despite all the things that had happened in the village recently, she did not pay any attention to them. She even started to stir up trouble about the matter of the ancestors' gods possessing their bodies. Only then did they understand the situation before their eyes. What had such a stupid person done to her before?

"Please calm your anger, ancestor deity. It was my fault for slacking. I will definitely correct it in the future!" Hearing those random words and Lin Bai's slightly mocking gaze, a cold light instantly flashed in 'Grandma Zhu's' eyes. However, that cold light only flashed for a moment before vanishing. After coldly snorting, she pressed her forehead to the ground, revealing a terrified expression.

"As long as the ancestor god gives his instructions, I will definitely do my best to help you protect the peace of the stronghold! "Please, for the sake of the fact that this old one has not contributed to the village in the past, please do not punish the people in the village. I will take responsibility for everything!"

If it wasn't for the sake of the village, why would they let their ancestors punish her? He heard 'Grandma Zhu's weak tone, "and the way she seemed to have taken all the responsibility onto him. The grievances in the hearts of the villagers within the stronghold immediately disappeared. In addition, the way they looked at her had greatly changed, and they had once again returned to their former reverence.

This old thing really knows how to act! Upon hearing the words' Matriarch Zhu ', Lin Bai cursed in his heart. If not for the fact that he knew the truth behind all of this, even Lin Bai himself would have been fooled by the unparalleled acting skills of Grandma Zhu.

Lin Bai could not help but feel a little disappointed when he saw that Grandma Zhu was not angered by his words. However, he also understood that if he was able to provoke this old thing to reveal his true form with just a few words, she would not be able to do so many things. Therefore, she did not want to continue pestering this old thing.

"In the future, remember your status clearly, do not slack off like now. Otherwise, the spirits of the ancestors will never let you off!" After pondering for a moment, Lin Bai sternly reprimanded Grandma Zhu, and his words gradually slowed down. He warmly said, "Of course, all of the hard work you've done in the past few years, we have already witnessed it. As long as you do it seriously, how can we punish you?"

Although there was only a difference of one word between hard work and hard work, the meaning was completely different. With just that one sentence, Lin Bai had turned the previous contribution of 'Grandma Zhu's Sacrifice' into a perfunctory gesture of 'Corpse Meal'.

She firmly stared at Lin Bai's face like two daggers tainted with venom. After staring for a long while, she coldly said, "This old man will remember the teachings of the Ancestral God, I don't know why the Ancestral God possessed the body of the foolish fool from the past. What kind of situation has happened to the village that caused your esteemed self to say that a calamity is about to befall, and we don't know these words!"

Old demoness! After hearing Grandma Zhu's words, Lin Bai could not help but curse in his heart. This old demoness was really an expert at playing word games. After he mocked her, she wanted to describe him as a silly fool!

However, Lin Bai did not want to continue tangling with this old fellow. The more he talked, the more time he would waste. He might even reveal some flaws.

"What disaster? You actually dare to ask?" Now that our ancestor's grave is turned into a place to be reared, and we are going to become the spirits of the evil spirits, you all are going to become their food in their stomachs, do you know that?! " After a brief moment of silence, Lin Bai feigned indignation as he coldly bellowed.
