Chapter 192 The Arrival of the Lotus Sect
"Your dad went to the village entrance again?"
Gao Mengli stood up, then grabbed two handfuls of sunflower seeds from the table, but felt it wasn't enough.
So he simply grabbed the melon plate and hurried towards the village entrance.
After all, there are no entertainment options here on ordinary days.
Gossip is always her and Lin Xi's greatest pleasure.
Seeing that his mother had also left, Da Niu resignedly lowered his head and started working on his abacus, reviewing the bills once again.
He really wants to go too!!!
Gao Mengli hurried along the way.
From afar, you could see her daughter Xixi standing in the crowd, spitting as she told everyone about the "heroes of Liangshan".
The crowd listened with rapt attention, and gasps of surprise frequently erupted from the crowd.
Lin Xi saw Gao Mengli coming over and waved to her from afar.
Gao Mengli was about to go over.
Suddenly, countless white ribbons fell from the sky at the village entrance.
Gao Mengli froze on the spot, her eyes widening in shock, almost spitting out the sunflower seeds in her mouth. "What's going on? Why are there so many white ribbons all of a sudden? Is it a funeral or something?"
But there are no funerals in the village.
The sudden appearance of the white silk startled everyone, and they all turned around, looking on with curiosity.
He watched in disbelief as one white ribbon after another flew over and was securely tied to the big tree at the village entrance and the chayote trellis.
This white silk seems to have eyes!
"The Lotus Sect has arrived; why don't you kneel and pay homage?"
Everyone was stunned by the sudden shout and looked at each other in bewilderment.
Lotus Sect? What Lotus Sect?
At this moment, countless people wearing tall hats and white clothes slid down from the white silk.
They stood in a row at the village entrance.
The white silk ribbon burst open, and behind them, a lotus sedan chair appeared out of thin air, with a person vaguely visible sitting on it.
Lin Xi's mouth was agape, and her eyes were wide open.
"The Lotus Sect??? Could it be the sect Jiang Yue was going to become a saintess for???"
Lin Xi looked completely bewildered.
Gao Mengli also ran to Lin Xi's side, her face solemn.
Hearing the commotion, the villagers dropped what they were doing and gathered at the village entrance.
"The Lotus Sect has arrived, why don't you all kneel down and pay homage immediately!"
Seeing that the villagers at the village entrance remained unmoved, the shouts rang out again.
The person inside the sedan chair also frowned in displeasure.
The village chief pushed through the crowd and stepped forward with a serious expression. "May I ask what your religion is? Why are you making us kneel and worship?"
One should kneel to heaven, to earth, and to one's parents who provide for one's needs.
They have Dou Weiyi, the county magistrate who provides them with food and clothing, and he didn't even make them kneel down. Why should this shady sect make them kneel down?
"Yeah, who are you? Why should we kneel before you?!"
The villagers were also furious and unleashed a barrage of attacks on the Lotus Sect members.
Looking at these stubborn and ignorant villagers, the person in the sedan chair almost coughed up blood.
"How dare you! Our sect is the Lotus Holy Sect, whose doctrines benefit all living beings."
"I am the leader of the Holy Sect. You all regard me as a god. How dare you be so disrespectful!" The voice from the sedan chair carried a mixture of anger and authority.
However, the villagers burst into laughter. An old woman stepped forward, trembling, and said, "What holy religion? We only believe in our own hands and God. Are you out of your mind, leader, and come to our little village to act like a big shot?"
The cult leader inside the sedan chair snorted coldly, "They really don't listen to reason, so they'll have to suffer the consequences."
The cult leader waved his hand, and with a loud "bang".
The followers drew their broadswords from their waists and pointed them at the villagers.
The villagers had never seen anything like this before, and they immediately trembled with fear.
Gao Mengli quickly pulled Lin Xigu behind her and shouted, "Everyone, hurry home! This guy is up to no good!"
Upon hearing this, the villagers scattered in a flurry.
Those who were using crutches found them in the way, so they put them on their shoulders and ran with their legs swinging in a wide arc.
In an instant, everyone at the bustling village entrance vanished.
"Hmph, do you think you can escape?" The cult leader sneered, watching the crowd flee like ants, which greatly pleased him!
He gave a wicked smile, leaped off the top of the sedan chair, and landed steadily at the village entrance, twenty meters away from Gao Mengli.
He parted his lips slightly, "Kill without mercy."
Gao Mengli looked coldly at the cult leader, "Stop! So this Lotus Cult of yours was formed through bloodshed, using the offerings of its followers to do all sorts of shady things."
"Hmph, so what! Uneducated villagers are utterly foolish. They're better off going to paradise than wasting food."
After the cult leader finished speaking, he waved his hands, and his white robe fluttered in the wind, making him look very imposing.
But in Gao Mengli's eyes, he was nothing more than a pretentious clown.
"Do you think our Wangyue Village is easy to bully?" Gao Mengli stared at the cult leader with sharp eyes, showing no fear.
“Although we are just ordinary people, we know that good and evil cannot coexist. Your kind of cult will be punished sooner or later.”
"Hahahaha, karma?!"
The cult leader seemed to have heard something amusing and laughed uproariously.
At this moment, he was still unaware of the seriousness of the situation.
Gao Mengli smirked, "Karma! What goes around comes around, and your karma is me!"
Having said that, he waved his hand at the bandits who were going back to get their weapons, "Go! One tael of silver for each person you capture! Ten taels of silver for capturing the leader!"
All her nonsense was just to buy the outlaws time to get their weapons.
When the followers heard Gao Mengli's words, they were stunned at first. Before they could react, they heard shouts of killing coming from all around.
Suddenly, a group of burly men wielding weapons rushed out from all corners. It was Du Hao from the village leading his band of outlaws, along with Qian Yan'er and the others, who had come to attack!
They finally found stable jobs and a place to live in Wangyue Village.
Now that the other side dared to bully Wangyue Village, they were enraged and incredibly brave, as they were now facing the very people who provided them with food and clothing.
What's more, there's also an ounce of silver!
The leader is worth ten taels!
Instantly, their eyes gleamed with greed, and like a pack of wolves entering a sheepfold, they began a chaotic slaughter!
The cult leader was furious, his face turning ashen, because in this village woman's eyes, he was only worth ten taels of silver—a truly humiliating disgrace.
A believer, his face contorted with grief, scrambled to the side, his voice trembling with tears, "Left Protector, we can't hold on any longer."
Upon hearing this, the cult leader—no, the left protector—kicked him viciously, yelling, "Useless!"
After saying that, he stared sharply at Gao Mengli, and leaped forward to capture her.
After all, to catch the thief, you must first catch the king.
This group of people obeyed the woman's orders.
Gao Mengli's lips curled into a smile.
She didn't use her trump card, so she played four twos first!
"Ah Li!"
No sooner had Gao Mengli finished speaking than A Li descended from the sky and caught the Left Protector's attack.
The Left Protector was terrified the moment he engaged in combat with him.
This kid is extremely skilled in martial arts, and what's most deadly is that every move he makes is ruthless and deadly!
The Left Protector inwardly cried out in alarm. He had thought that Wangyue Village was just a place with ordinary villagers, but he never expected that such a powerful character was hidden there.
