NOVEL WEB Chapter 25 Hot or not?
By the time General Xue and his party came down from the mountain, the villagers had already gathered at the entrance of the village.
The place at the entrance of the village is where the big willow tree is. As soon as Xue Lei saw this place, he thought of what happened yesterday. He couldn't help but rub his arms and reached out to take Long Bao'er from his father's arms.
Holding my sister in my arms made me less scared.
What those people just said was unclear. Everyone is waiting here, waiting for Ma Daoye to give them an explanation.
However, there were no Guo family members among these people. Although some people went to notify them, the door of the Guo family was closed and no one answered.
When everyone came together, Chen Laoliu first told everyone what Ma Daoye said, "Everyone, that's it, but we still have to listen to Ma Daoye's specific explanation."
"This is exactly the reason. Mr. Ma Dao, please tell us. If it is really the Guo family who did all this, we will never spare them."
"Yes, we have had a really hard time these years!"
"Okay. But before I talk, let me show you something first!" Ma Daoye asked people to tie those boys, especially Guo Fu, to several big trees around. "Huzi, go get some firewood."
"There's firewood over there!" Long Baoer suddenly pointed diagonally ahead and said.
"Huh? How do you know, Long Bao'er?" General Xue wondered.
"He told me!" Long Baoer said with a finger.
Everyone looked in the direction of Long Baoer's finger and saw a little squirrel squatting on the tree branch above their heads. Everyone looked at him and ran away with a whoosh.
Xue Lei:? ? ?
Villagers:? ? ?
Chen family father and son:? ? ?
General Xue: Oh, what a fuss!
The people in the village looked at each other.
There was indeed firewood in the direction Long Baoer pointed to. It was said to be firewood, but in fact it was the eight carriages back then.
The unknown tragic deaths of those eight families became a taboo in the village that could not be mentioned.
The animals in the eight carriages were used for sacrifice and to save the souls of the dead, but no one dared to ask for those eight carriages.
In the end, it was piled in a corner of the village. Now five years later, it has long since decayed and fallen apart. It is a pile of good firewood.
Not to mention that Long Baoer and the others only came after dark yesterday and went up the mountain early in the morning. Even the villagers mostly forgot about this pile of firewood.
How could a little girl know?
But when they turned their attention to the Taoist priest with immortal style.
Suddenly, I felt enlightened.
understood.
It’s not the little girl who knows.
But this Taoist master can figure it out and then pretend to say it through the mouth of this little girl.
This must be an expert from outside the world. Experts from outside the world cannot expose too many secrets. They must be sensible and see through without telling!
Most of the clan elders in the village showed understanding smiles and did not stop Haizi and the others from getting firewood. A few juniors were ignorant and wanted to ask questions, but were glared at by the clan elders.
"You guys, come together and help Ban!"
Everyone gathered firewood with great enthusiasm. With the support of the clan elders and the help of the villagers, all the firewood was quickly brought in.
At this time, Taoist Master Ma took out the date cores he had just eaten, and General Xue and Chen Laoliu also brought the date cores over.
"Keep the big one for Long Bao'er."
Someone else asked, "Master Tao, do you want to pile these firewood next to those people?"
The Guo family's housekeeper and several servants were immediately frightened to death.
They felt that the next moment, firewood would pile up around them and burn them alive!
Director Ma had a sneer on his lips. He looked at several people who were so scared that they peed their pants before he spoke slowly.
"No, just pile them here."
After the firewood was piled up, Taoist Master Ma threw a few date stones in his hand onto the pile of firewood, then walked around the pile of dry firewood, and the fire suddenly ignited.
I don't know if it was because the firewood was too dry. Once it burned, the fire was so bright that the faces of the surrounding villagers turned red.
The blush on everyone's faces was actually not only from being illuminated by the fire, but also from excitement.
This fire ignited out of thin air, this Taoist is a god!
Moreover, this fire burned very quickly. It originally took an hour to burn, but now it was almost burned out in less than an hour.
Ma Daoye asked someone to prepare a basin of water again, and this time a villager took the initiative to bring water.
"Master Ma Dao, this water..."
"Put it on the ground first!" Taoist Master Ma came to the fire, stretched out his foot and kicked the fire, and several small red things came out from inside.
It was the date core that Taoist Ma had just thrown into the fire.
Director Ma bent down to pick up the date core, and the people around him took a breath.
Such a large pile of firewood has been burning for a long time. It must be burning hot, and it is no different from grabbing red hot charcoal directly.
An expert is worthy of being an expert!
Daoist Ma blew at the ash attached to the jujube pits, and the jujube pits became bright red and translucent.
Long Baoer's eyes lit up, and when General Xue was unprepared, he broke free from his hand and ran to Master Ma Dao, "Master Dao, this is so beautiful, can Long Baoer touch it?"
As he spoke, he was eager to give it a try.
The Xue family father and son were suddenly startled and quickly spoke to stop him.
Taoist Master Ma nodded with a smile, "Okay!"
Long Baoer immediately stretched out his hand.
"Don't touch!"
"hot!"
The Xue family father and son spoke at the same time, and even the villagers had many expressions of shock on their faces, and even subconsciously closed their eyes and did not dare to look.
But the little girl quickly reached out and held the date core in her hand, caressing it carefully as if looking at some treasure, with curiosity in her eyes.
"Master Dao, this is so warm."
The footsteps of the Xue family father and son suddenly stopped.
"warm?"
Father and son looked at each other.
Did they hear wrongly?
Xue Lei walked to Long Bao'er and said, "Long Bao'er, isn't this hot?"
"It's not hot, it's warm. Brother, touch..."
Xue Lei was curious and wanted to touch it, but Taoist Master Ma quickly reached out and stopped him.
"You can't touch it."
Xue Lei was stunned for a moment, "Why?"
"You can't bear it." Taoist priest Ma whispered concisely.
Xue Lei didn't believe in evil, "Then let me touch it lightly?"
This time Taoist Master Ma didn't say a word and looked at him trying to die.
Xue Lei was an arrogant young man. He felt that his sister could hold it and play with her little hands, so of course he had no problem with it, so he stretched out his hand.
As a result, there was still about a finger's distance away from the jujube stones. Xue Lei suddenly stopped his hand and did not dare to move any further.
General Xue, who was nearby, had already noticed that there must be some reason for this, and stood watching the fun with a half-smile.
Seeing his son stop his hand, he encouraged him beside him without fear of trouble, "Touch, why did you stop?"
Xue Lei began to sweat on his forehead.
He really wanted to touch it, but just a finger away, he felt like there was a huge flame in front of him. Not to mention touching it, even if he got close to it, it would make him feel uncomfortable.
Xue Lei took two steps back and said, "No, no, I won't touch it anymore."
