The middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "This is a sacred object in our village. It represents our lives. If you take it away, we will all die. Put it down quickly." After hearing this, Leng Xuan said: "Everyone, if If you don’t mind, I can exchange it for something else.”
"Exchange?" an old man scolded, "What do you exchange for? Your life?" As he said that, people surrounded him from all sides, trying to snatch the bronze statue from Leng Xuan's hand.
Leng Xuan was worried about causing unnecessary trouble, so without waiting for the opponent to take action, he pointed on his toes and flew out of the opponent's crowd. He stood on the roof of one of the houses, looked down at the crowd and said: "Everyone, I said, I There is no malice. All in all, I must take this thing away. As for the conditions... you can ask for them as long as I can accept them."
Seeing Leng Xuan easily jump onto the roof, the villagers were stunned. However, after hearing his words, everyone's anger was aroused again. I saw several strong young men taking the stairs and preparing to go to the roof to catch Leng Xuan. Seeing this, Leng Xuan waved his hand, and the bodies of several young people immediately floated up from the ground. Seeing this magical scene, the villagers couldn't help but turn pale with shock, and each one looked at Leng Xuan in horror. There were also some timid people who simply collapsed on the ground.
Seeing that these villagers were frightened by his own methods, Leng Xuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then flew down in front of everyone and asked: "You just said that if this bronze statue is lost, you will all die. What's going on? One thing?"
An old man hurriedly said: "This bronze statue protects our existence from disasters. Without it, we would not survive tomorrow."
"Is it that serious?" Leng Xuan frowned slightly and said, "Everyone, please get up. Stop kneeling." After a pause, he asked, "Which one of you is the leader?" After hearing this, the man just now The old man came out and said, "My name is Huang Shou, and I am the village chief here."
"Since you are the village chief, tell me what is going on?"
"Yes." Huang Shou said, "That's right, our village has a history of hundreds of years. There used to be many villagers living here, hundreds of people, and the area was larger than it is now. But later, for some unknown reason, The oasis we lived in was gradually swallowed up by the sand, and many villagers disappeared for no reason. In just ten years, our village became like this. Later, we found this bronze statue. Putting it in the village can avoid all disasters. The reason why the village has been safe in the past few years is all because of this bronze statue."
"So that's it." Leng Xuan nodded secretly, "You said that your villagers disappeared for no reason. Don't you have any clues?"
Huang Shou shook his head and said: "Those villagers all disappeared at night. Everyone was asleep at that time, and we didn't find out until the next day. At first, we thought there were gangsters making trouble, so we sent many young adults to keep watch. But. , within a few days, those who were keeping watch disappeared, and their whereabouts are unknown. They have not been found yet. Sir... Please, if we don’t have that bronze statue, we will definitely be in trouble.”
Leng Xuan looked up at the night sky above his head and said nothing. At this moment, only four of the five bronze statues in the sky are left. It can be seen that the bronze statue in his hand is one of them.
