MTL - Blame The Villain For Being Too Beautiful-Chapter 211 Emperor Villain (11)
Song Xuyi clearly felt Jiang Ruoyu's joy.
Because at the end of the day, Jiang Ruoyu would raise his head from time to time, and call her "Sister Xu Yi" with bright eyes.
Song Xuyi didn't understand the reason for Jiang Ruoyu's excitement, but thinking that this would also help Jiang Ruoyu adapt to the relationship between the two pretended cousins as soon as possible, Song Xuyi let her go after thinking about it.
When the two arrived at Guozhou, the whole city was still shrouded in a frenzied atmosphere.
People are still discussing the farewell parade of the saint a few days ago: in front of everyone, the saint turned into a very strange and beautiful flower, and disappeared into the night sky in a flash, and A huge light curtain appeared across the sky. The night became as bright as day, and a woman's profile appeared in the light curtain—this was the general appearance of the new saint.
Except for the high priest Fu Sheng, no one could see the saint's face clearly.
Even though becoming a new saint means only five years of life left, the saint was highly respected during her reign, and her family members can be properly settled after her death, not to mention the Yinyue sect's claim that the saint has become After the flower dies, it does not mean death, but it will become the most loyal servant of Yinshen and go to the God Realm to serve Yingshen. Therefore, in the eyes of many people, the benefits of becoming a saint are far higher than a person's life. .
In this deformed world, the theory of gods and ghosts prevails, and people firmly believe in the words of Yinyue Sect. Countless people are vying to become saints. Every year, during the selection of saints, not only local girls from Yaozhou will participate. The Holy Maiden Selection and even people from other states and counties will specially choose this time to come to Yaozhou.
And the selection of the saintess has already begun from the gate of the city of Guozhou.
Yinyue Sect specially sent dozens of congregants with sharp eyes to wait at the gate of the city to wait for those who meet the characteristics of the saint, and they will be sent to the unified inn in the city to wait for the second test brought by the high priest Fu Sheng.
"Hey! It's the girl in your carriage..."
Jiang Ruoyu's appearance has always been the one who is particularly eye-catching in the crowd. Almost as soon as she entered the city, she attracted the attention of all congregations. Jiang Ruoyu has not yet expressed her intention to participate in the selection of the saint. She came up to greet her, enthusiastically handed Jiang Ruoyu a sign to invite Jiang Ruoyu to participate in the selection, and called a well-decorated carriage, and drove her and Song Xuyi into the inn in the city.
As for Song Xuyi, even though Song Xuyi was born beautiful, those people were not interested in Song Xuyi. After Jiang Ruoyu said, "Sister Xuyi is my cousin, I won't go anywhere without her", the congregation reluctantly let her go. Song Xuyi also got into the carriage.
"They don't know Taishan with their eyes!" Sitting on the carriage, Jiang Ruoyu took a deep breath, but obviously she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart, so she said angrily, "Sister Xu Yi is so beautiful and has a good temper. They are actually blind and can't see you..."
"Okay, okay," Song Xuyi laughed in his heart. Jiang Ruoyu was unusually calm along the way. She didn't expect her to show such a childish look, and she couldn't help but tease: "Don't you want them to choose me to be a saint? Only five years to live?"
"Of course I didn't mean that—" Jiang Ruoyu gave Song Xuyi an aggrieved look, and after seeing the teasing in Song Xuyi's eyes, he was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, lowered his head, and looked out the window angrily.
Song Xuyi looked at Jiang Ruoyu's appearance and suppressed the smile on his face.
I didn't notice it at first, but when Jiang Ruoyu turned her face sideways, her side face obviously overlapped with a certain face in her mind—
"I think, I probably know the main reason why you will be chosen by them."
Song Xuyi and Jiang Ruoyu arrived at the inn where the candidate saints lived.
After seeing the candidate saintesses who had already lived in the inn, Song Xuyi further confirmed his guess: No matter how tall, short, fat, thin, beautiful or ugly these saintesses were, they all looked somewhat similar to the previous saintess whom Song Xu had seen.
Song Xuyi felt familiar when she saw the saint who had disappeared before, but she didn't think too much at that time. When she saw Jiang Ruoyu's profile in the carriage, Song Xuyi realized that the saint and Jiang Ruoyu looked alike.
Looking at the fat, swallow and thin candidate saintesses in front of him, Song Xuyi couldn't help feeling suspicious: It is well known that the selection of saintesses of Yinyue Sect is in the hands of the high priest Fu Sheng, so what are Fu Sheng's criteria for selecting saintesses? Just with a similar face...
Song Xuyi vaguely felt that this had something to do with the plot of the original novel.
Originally, Song Xuyi thought he would be selected, guessing that the Yinyue Sect had some special means to perceive the divine body, but after knowing the general appearance criteria for selecting saintesses, Song Xuyi felt that the probability of being selected was extremely small, not because Song Xuyi was not born well. It's good-looking, but compared with Jiang Ruoyu, who is radiant and aggressive, Song Xuyi's appearance is gentle and soft, and has no similarity with Jiang Ruoyu's appearance.
And if the selection was really based on appearance, Song Xuyi felt that the probability of Jiang Ruoyu being selected was extremely high—Song Xuyi thought about it carefully, and at first glance, the saint she met that night was simply a rough version of Jiang Ruoyu. Even though she was good-looking, she was far from being as delicate and flawless as Jiang Ruoyu.
When Song Xuyi and Jiang Ruoyu came in, the selection was coming to an end, and two days later, Yaozhou ended the preliminary selection of the saintess.
In the past two days, Song Xuyi used the excuse of being bored and walked around the city with Jiang Ruoyu. The people in Guozhou City did not stop them. Everyone, from infants to white-haired old men, has a crescent-shaped pagoda tree pendant hanging on their chests.
The locust tree is a yin tree, so hanging such a pendant on a person will naturally attract evil spirits, but the Yinyue Sect uses this pendant as a token of the Yinyue Sect, requiring believers to carry it with them.
This eye is everywhere.
And the people are crazy about the worship of the gods. Song Xuyi saw it with his own eyes. There was a quarrel between two women on the street. No one could tell who knocked down the eggs on the stall. One of the women suddenly became excited. Holding the pendant tightly, he swore loudly in a treacherous tone: "Master Yinshen, if I hit the egg, Lord Yinshen will cut off the hand that hit the egg. If I didn't knock it down, believer girl Please ask Lord God to cut off the real murderer's hand..."
Immediately afterwards, there was a sudden scream, and the swearing woman's eyes widened suddenly, watching helplessly as her hands were severed from her wrists!
"No! Lord Yinshen, I really didn't know it was the egg that I touched, please, my lord..."
The woman knelt on the ground with her broken hand and cried bitterly, begging the gods to forgive her mistakes, while the rest of the people knelt on the ground frantically and shouted frantically: "Yingshen has manifested again! Thank you, Gods! Justice…"
Song Xuyi looked at the woman crying bitterly with her arms folded, and an inexplicable chill felt on her back: She believed that the woman really didn't know that she had knocked over the egg, otherwise, according to their obsession with gods, women would never be like this Swear and swear. And at the moment when the woman's arm broke, Song Xuyi clearly felt an evil force.
Is such a world what the gods of Guozhou want to see?
Song Xuyi is still not sure whether the **** of Guozhou is Yinshen. After all, the spirit of Yinshen in the original book is a chaotic black mist without sanity, and the **** of Guozhou obviously has the ability to judge subjectively.
And through this incident, Song Xuyi also understood that the evil gods enshrined by Yinyue Sect are almost everywhere in this city.
"Ruoyu, what do you think about this matter?"
Song Xuyi didn't dare to act rashly anymore, and asked Jiang Ruoyu's opinion on this matter. Jiang Ruoyu had the same opinion as her, and said softly: "It's too cruel and cold to lead God to deal with things. Even if this woman is wrong, the crime is not limited to that."
"I think so too," Song Xuyi laughed gratifiedly. He was worried that Jiang Ruoyu might be assimilated if he entered the Yinyue Sect, but now he realizes that his worries are unfounded. , Sometimes people need to pay the price for their own impulses, but the judgment of this kind of thing has its own rules and laws to punish, rather than a so-called **** relying on its own subjective judgment to make punishment..."
"Sister said so." Jiang Ruoyu smiled gently, but her eyes were gloomy.
She cheated sister Xu Yi, but she didn't.
In fact, at the beginning, she didn't feel that the gods of Yaozhou did anything wrong. After all, it was the woman who asked for it. The gods only fulfilled her wish and made her pay the corresponding price.
But she knew that elder sister Xu Yi didn't like to hear such an answer, so she said what elder sister Xu Yi liked to hear.
But after answering, Jiang Ruoyu thought about it again. If she was the **** of Yaozhou, she might not handle this matter like the **** of Yaozhou, because she had seen a truly benevolent **** and received the blessing of the god. Until now, she is still enjoying the warmth bestowed by the gods—
Jiang Ruoyu raised her head, took a quick look at Song Xuyi, and then lowered her head again: Even though there is a natural barrier between the two of them, even if it will go against her original intention, even if things will become troublesome, but even so, she still wants to use it. Do your best to get closer to sister Xu Yi, to be more like her...
And two days passed quickly.
The selection of the saintess is divided into three stages: those who pass the first stage will live in this inn, and the second stage will be presided over by the high priest Fu Sheng. Those who pass the second stage will enter a cave to participate in the third stage. I know what the girls will encounter in the cave, because the girls have different opinions after they come out. Some say they saw the treasure, some said they saw themselves becoming a queen, and some saw themselves reincarnated into a wealthy family... But in the third stage, saintesses with divine power are often born among these people.
When participating in the second round, Song Xu met Fu Sheng. Song Xuyi originally thought that Fu Sheng was a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears. Scribes...
Fu Sheng shook his fan, his eyes casually turned around the girls in the arena, and when they fell on Jiang Ruoyu, his eyes widened suddenly—
The author has something to say:
