Mortal Mirror

Hearing Huang San's question, the crowd immediately began to discuss it. At that moment, Huang San suddenly looked at Li Ergou and said, "Li Ergou, aren't you from this village? Do you have any opinions?"

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at Li Ergou. The people from Wanglong Village were also slightly surprised when they heard this name, and then they all looked at him.

"Ergou, it's really Ergou! I didn't expect our Wanglong Village to produce such a talent!" The old village chief shouted loudly. Whether he was acting or genuinely emotional, tears streamed down his face.

At this moment, the people from Wanglong Village gathered around Li Ergou. Someone shouted, "Ergou, I'm your second aunt! Do you still remember me? Why didn't you talk to us when you came back?"

An old man with white hair also said, "Ergou, I'm your uncle! My Ergou, you've become successful and brought honor to our Li family!"

"I'm your second great-uncle."

"I'm your third grandma's fourth uncle! We're blood relatives!"

Li Ergou was dumbfounded. He had lived in Wanglong Village for nearly sixteen years, but he never knew he had so many relatives.

There was the one who claimed to be his uncle, named Li Danada, he vividly remembered being extremely hungry and stealing a sweet potato from his field, only to be caught and beaten half to death by him.

And that third aunt, she didn't even give him a drop of water when he asked for some.

Now that so many people were claiming kinship, he couldn't help but feel absurd. When he was poor, why didn't they say they were his relatives?

At this moment, everyone grabbed his leg, telling their grievances. Li Ergou couldn't break free and could only look at Huang San for help. Huang San looked at these people with disdain and couldn't help but angrily say, "Let go of me, get aside, don't affect our handling of the case."

When everyone heard the reprimand, they immediately retreated, not daring to say more. However, the look in their eyes towards Li Ergou was still very passionate.

Li Ergou ignored them, rode his horse in front of Huang San, and said, "Sir, I only have a superficial understanding of Laolong Pit, but I often went there to play when I was young, so I am very familiar with the terrain there. However, I have never heard of any demons, so we might as well go and see to find out the reason."

Huang San nodded and said, "Alright, let's go. Lead the way."

Looking at the backs of Li Ergou and the others, many villagers in Wanglong Village had eager expressions in their eyes. Someone said, "I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that Li Ergou could also make a name for himself. No, Li Ergou has become an official, and my Gougan must also benefit from it. He can't become successful and forget about us blood relatives!"

"Yes, yes, my Erniu also has nothing to do. Let Ergou take him away later. Whether he lives or dies, just give him a bite to eat."

The crowd discussed, and they all put their ideas on Li Ergou.

On horseback, Li Ergou only felt his ears burning, and he didn't know who was talking about him.

Huang San looked at him and couldn't help but ask, "Have you never heard any legends or anything like that?"

Li Ergou thought for a while and nodded, "Sir, there really is one. The legend of Laolong Pit is that it is the place where a dragon fell. Could it be that there really is a dragon there?"

"Dragon? Hmph, you think too much. How could a divine dragon fall into this poor place? Maybe it's just a big snake. Forget it, let's talk about it when we get there."

Laolong Pit is located less than three miles west of Wanglong Village. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there is only a small stream flowing through the middle. The stream passes through a water pit that can be several feet wide, and that is Laolong Pit.

Standing on the hillside and looking at Laolong Pit, Huang San said in surprise, "Oh, I have to say, there is a divine light rising from Laolong Pit. Maybe there really is something good below.

In this kind of place, perhaps some beasts can open their minds and become demons. Everyone be careful, let's go and take a look."

At this moment, the mountain road was steep, and everyone had to get off their horses and walk forward.

Before long, everyone came to Laolong Pit. It can be seen that the surface of the pit is extremely calm, and there is nothing strange about it. It is just like an ordinary big water pit.

However, there are many traces of lightning strikes around the water pit, and some rocks have been scorched black.

Everyone was surprised. Could it be that some demon is transcending tribulation here?

Huang San walked forward with hesitation. He saw that he was pinching his fingers, and the sword behind him buzzed and unsheathed, and he stirred it randomly in the water pit below. After a while, he took back the sword and shook his head slightly, "I didn't see anything inside. That's strange. Could it be that there is another place where demons are hidden?"

Li Ergou was amazed at this moment. No wonder people became deputy constables. They really have some skills. To be able to control swords like this, they must have at least the sixth level of Qi Refining. I don't know what Huang Butou's specific cultivation level is.

At this moment, Lu Yun suggested, "Sir, I feel that there is no demonic aura here. I think there is another reason. Why don't we go back to the village and wait to see what kind of demon is causing trouble?"

Huang San thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, it's better to wait for the rabbit than to hunt fish. Your suggestion is very good. Let's go back to Wanglong Village to rest for a while and then make plans."

So the group turned back to Wanglong Village.

It's just that at this moment, everyone didn't see it. A huge black figure flashed under the water and then disappeared.

In Wanglong Village, everyone carried fruits and meat, surrounding Li Ergou. Everyone came to build relationships with him.

Li Ergou had a headache, and it was not good to not accept it. He thought that if he had these things when he was hungry, he wouldn't be so thin and small now. He smiled bitterly in his heart and had no choice but to accept them. Only then did the villagers of Wanglong Village reluctantly leave.

Huang San and others couldn't help but sneer, but there was also some envy in their eyes. Lu Yun said, "It's still the villagers who are simple and honest. Ergou, look how enthusiastic these people are. You are so happy. Unlike us people in the county seat, except for a few relatives and friends, no one wants to associate with you."

Li Ergou smiled bitterly in his heart. He couldn't tell outsiders about this matter, otherwise he would be laughed at. So he said, "Yes, our relatives are related to each other, and everyone is very close."

Everyone's eyes were complicated, and they didn't know what to think.

Next was waiting. Li Ergou sneaked out. Soon, he came to the old site of the landlord's house. Looking at the landlord's house, which had been burned into a ruin, he couldn't help but sigh. The cycle of heaven, retribution is inevitable. The landlord's family has done all kinds of bad things, and I don't know how many families have been destroyed and how many lives have been lost.

Mr. Li Zhengan is right. The landlord's family was too clever in their calculations, but instead calculated their own lives. People, if they have talent but no virtue, their wealth will not last long and will become a disaster. Now the landlord's family is a living example. Mr. is not deceiving me.

He couldn't help but take this as a warning, and he should do more good deeds in the future, so he can't become the next landlord.

The night was deep, and countless dark clouds floated in the sky, blocking the moonlight and making tonight even darker. Li Ergou and others, led by Huang San, were all ambushed in some abandoned houses at the entrance of the village. They wanted to see what kind of demon would come out to cause trouble.

In the middle of the night, just when everyone was a little drowsy, they heard the ground vibrate slightly in the distance. Something must be running over.

Everyone immediately cheered up, and Huang San told everyone, "Everyone listen to my instructions later. No one can take action without my order."

Everyone obeyed the order and stopped talking, just waiting to see what kind of demon was so rampant that it dared to enter the village to do evil.

Soon a huge figure walked towards this side from a distance. This thing was huge. Because the dark clouds were covering the moon tonight, everyone couldn't see what it was at all.

However, everyone was secretly on guard, ready to rush out at any time. Li Ergou also clenched the knife in his hand, concentrating all his attention.
