Hearing the word “punishment”, the villager trembled. He quickly put on an earnest expression and said, “Chief, I’ll go now. Don’t be angry.”
The village chief’s expression instantly became much better.
“That’s the right thing to do. If you listen to me obediently, you’ll definitely get many benefits. If you don’t listen to me, this thing will be gone.”
“You’re right.”
The villager’s eyes lit up. Then, he took out another bowl of blood and walked directly toward Jiang Ming and the others.
“Let me help you get rid of your bad luck!”
Jiang Ming looked at it carefully. The color of the blood had already turned turbid.
“l think you guys should be the ones who are going to be unlucky!” He could not help but grin.
Sikong Wuyuan took advantage of the situation and quickly ran behind the villager. He s.n.a.t.c.hed the bowl of blood and threw it at the villager.
The villagers immediately felt a chill. He almost vomited. In an instant, he felt his body burning up.
He fell to the ground and started rolling around.
After a while, his body was covered in sweat.
Jiang Ming was dumbfounded.
He did not expect the blood to have such an effect.
“Zhang, are you alright?” The other villagers hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
The village chief snorted coldly. “What a waste. You actually got your blood on yourself. Forget it, I’ll treat it as you offering yourself to the high priest. Pull him out. Do you still remember the rules?”
The villagers looked at each other before they gritted their teeth and carried Zhang out.
Seeing the expressions of these villagers, Yuan Hehe understood something. He sneered at the village chief. “You’re not a good village chief. You’re always using the reputation of the high priest to suppress the villagers. You don’t have the dignity of a village chief at all.”
These words touched the village chief’s heart. He tapped his walking stick again and glared at Yuan Hehe. “Where did you come from?” How dare you speak to me like this! Since you’re an outsider, you have to respect me.”
Yuan Hehe rolled his eyes and pretended to mock him. “If you hadn’t appeared out of nowhere, I would have thought that there was no village chief here.”
The village chief was so angry that he wanted to hit Yuan Hehe, but he was stopped by Jiang Ming.
Looking at Jiang Ming in front of him carefully, the village chief suddenly felt intense pressure. He had to take a few steps back, but he still said firmly, “l am the village chief of this village. Everyone has to respect me.”
Yuan Hehe only chuckled and did not say anything.
However, the mockery in his words was already very obvious. The village chief was furious, but there was nothing he could do.
As the chief of the village, he still had to show his might and not be criticized by others.
“How about this? Seeing that you are outsiders and that you don’t understand the rules of the village, go to the high priest and apologize now. Accept his fixed ceremony, and our village will forgive you.”
He thought for a moment and then smiled. His expression was gentle, but a glint flashed across his mind.
Seeing that the village chief had changed att.i.tudes so quickly, Jiang Ming stepped back.
The village chief’s expression was constantly changing. Who knew if he wanted to do something to them?
As for the high priest’s fixed ceremony… He did not even know what it was.
Just as he was thinking, a golden light suddenly flashed in front of him. This golden light directly wrapped him, Sikong Wuyuan, and Yuan Hehe.
The village chief pretended to be surprised and said, “l didn’t expect the high priest to come just as I mentioned him. This golden light is a ceremony for him to invite people. You guys should like it too.”
Jiang Ming grinned.
His eyes were already covered in golden light, and he could not see anything around him at all.
He felt his clothes being pulled by something. He looked down and saw a dart quietly land on his arm.
Blood had already seeped out of the wound.
“What a welcome ceremony!” Jiang Ming could not help but sneer.
Was this a welcoming ceremony to kill them?
Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe had already fainted.
Jiang Ming felt that something was wrong.
He heard a thud. It was as if someone had fallen to the ground.
He felt that it should be Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe.
However, under the cover of the golden light, he could not see any traces of Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe. He could not even see their shadows.
He felt that shouting was useless, so he thought about it and pretended to faint.
Immediately after that, he felt as if someone was in front of him.
That person even leaned closer to his body, as if he was looking at something.
Jiang Ming could not help but shiver when he felt that person laughing.
What was he trying to do?
Then, he opened his eyes and saw a man wearing a mask and strange clothes standing in front of him.
He pulled this person over and used his spiritual energy to conjure a rope to tie him up.
The man laughed. “It’s the same if you’re tied up or not. I’m the famous high priest here. This is not a good situation. When the time comes, the entire village will be ashamed of you.”
“What do their thoughts have to do with me?”
Jiang Ming felt that the high priest was quite funny, so he tightened the ropes.
He felt that it would be better to strangle this high priest to death than do strange things all day long.
The high priest felt that he could easily get rid of the rope.
He pretended to wait. After watching Jiang Ming tie him up a little tighter, he tried to get out again. In the end, he realized that he could not break free at all.
He could not help but be shocked.
How was this possible?
Jiang Ming knew what he was thinking. He could not help but laugh. “You’re really pitiful. You think you can control everything. But in fact, you can’t even control a rope right now. It’s better to stay here and stop doing evil.”
As he said that, he raised his hand and set up a barrier around the high priest. This barrier was also glowing with golden light.
With the barrier, the people outside could not see the high priest at all, let alone know what the high priest was saying.
When the golden light dissipated, Jiang Ming saw Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe who were unconscious. He quickly went forward to check on them.
After discovering that the two of them were safe and sound, he used his spiritual energy to wake them up.
After the two of them woke up, they still did not understand why they fainted. Jiang Ming did not know either.
“Let’s take care of other things first,” he said after some thought.
Seeing the golden light turn into a barrier, the village chief could not help but be shocked.
“Where did you hide the high priest? Why did he suddenly disappear?”
“What are you talking about?” Jiang Ming pretended to be ignorant.. “How could we hide the high priest?”
