Chapter 482 - Chapter 482 Chapter 472 Offended Again

Chapter 482: Chapter 472: Offended Again Chapter 482: Chapter 472: Offended Again The night had deepened, and above the campfire, the water boiled vigorously.

Everyone listened intently to the story, curious about how the giant python would choose in such a situation.

Peng San-ye sighed, “Actually, the story should end here, because after that, the ancestors of Peng Village had collapsed due to exhaustion. What happened next, he couldn’t remember clearly. Whether the giant python agreed to the Taoist’s request or not, no one knows for sure, only that when he escaped, both the giant python and the Taoist were gone.”

Wang Meng, who was engrossed in the story, touched his head anxiously, “Oh my, San-ye, how can you stop the story halfway like this? Being stuck in the middle without conclusion is really uncomfortable.”

“Yes, Peng San-ye, what happened later? You were saying before that someone brought something out from the mountain, what was it?” Zhang Dongke asked.

Su Shu sat next to Tang Zelin, also looking at Peng San-ye. She wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination, but as Peng San-ye reached this point in the story,

the ring on her finger felt hot, much like when she was searching for the missing Tang Zelin in Peng Mountain.

For some reason, she always felt that this story was somewhat related to the Little Snake King in the space.

Peng San-ye didn’t continue to tease them, “The ancestor who went into the mountain for his wife, it was said that after he fainted and woke up, he didn’t know where he was, surrounded by the stench of blood. Terribly scared, and in the pitch darkness where he could see nothing, he didn’t know what he had grabbed; running towards the light without a care, he managed to escape. Perhaps his life was not meant to end just yet; he just ran out like that.”

“As for what that man actually brought out from the mountain, the villagers had various stories. Those who entered the mountain disappeared without a trace, only that man escaped. But the villagers could no longer tolerate them.

In the village, the half of the Imperial Guards that were left saw that only he returned and not the General and others and decided to slaughter the entire village, gathering all the men, women, elderly, and children together, preparing to exterminate them all.

But on the night the village was to be massacred, a torrential downpour struck unexpectedly, pouring rain lashing down for three days and nights, causing floods. When the sky cleared after the rains, something strange happened.”

“What strange thing?” Tang Zelin squinted his eyes, feeling that the most crucial mystery of the story was about to be revealed.

Peng San-ye explained, “The strange thing was, all the people from our village were unharmed, but those who came from outside the village, they all died, and their deaths were horrific, as if they had seen some terrifying thing and were frightened to death.”

“That is strange, why were the people of Peng Village okay?”

“Yes, that’s the strangest part. At the time, including the wife that man had married from outside, she also died. Later, it was said that the Empress in the palace also perished, the Emperor was enraged, and he sent troops again to investigate. The villagers, seeking to escape disaster, hid in the mountains but that man kept saying there was a deity in the mountains and begged not to disturb it. The villagers dared not venture deep into the mountains and hid near Ghost Valley Ridge, which is near Between Cliffs Mountain now.”

Su Shu said, “I’ve heard there’s a temple built by the villagers there, right?”

“It’s not really a temple, but rather a place where villagers conduct sacrifices and pray for blessings. Actually, it’s not about seeking protection, it’s about not wanting to offend, but I think we, the people of Peng Village, still managed to offend.”
