Chapter 828 Worshiping the River God(1/2)
Xingjing City.
This is a city with a very oriental style.
However, the style slightly retains some oriental characteristics. In fact, after the Star Alliance has been reshuffled for so long, there is basically no big difference between races.
Furthermore, the gap between the upper city and lower city is almost the same as other cities.
Xingguo seems to be very obsessed with classifying things into categories.
Divide people into upper-class people and lower-class people.
At this moment, the slums of Xiacheng District.
Their heads, arms, etc. were wrapped in bandages in many places. People were dressed in ragged clothes and gathered in the courtyard.
There was steaming hot food on the vermilion round table, but at this time everyone basically had no appetite.
"Lao Zhu's place was raided and they almost found out about Shadow."
"I have a brother in the patrol. I heard that the Covenant recently developed a new detector that can detect shadows."
"I've heard about it too. I guess it won't be long before detectors will be sent to every city. By then we won't be able to escape."
As several people communicated, their expressions became more and more lonely.
"Then what should we do now? Ever since we came into contact with the Shadow Crystal... we seem to be unable to go back. If we hadn't..."
"What's wrong, Lao Xu, do you regret becoming a member of the 'Shadow'? If I hadn't given you the chance, you and your wife would have been beaten to death by that gang and no one would have cared about it!"
"Fart, am I regretful? I am sad." The man retorted angrily, "Brothers are like this now, let alone help Jiang Shen, we can't protect ourselves!"
"Aren't you just trying to think of a way now? Apart from saying depressing words, can you have any other effect?"
The two men became more and more noisy and almost came to blows.
Finally, they were forcibly separated after being pulled by others.
The depression in the hospital returned to its original state.
The food was steaming hot, and no one was the first to use chopsticks.
"I suggest that everyone keep a low profile during this period, try not to show any abnormalities, and postpone the recruitment of people until the limelight has passed."
The vicissitudes of life man sitting at the head of the round table spoke.
"What about worshiping the River God?" someone asked again.
The man hesitated for a moment and said, "We can't stop this...continue to worship. Sooner or later we will be able to wait for Jiang Shen's response."
Will there be one?
In fact, no one present can be sure.
Everyone is at the bottom of society, doing the hardest and most tiring work.
The so-called worshiping the River God is just to find psychological comfort for oneself.
"I heard that the shadows have established a shadow layer that belongs to us, where everyone is equal."
"Why don't you find out where this Shadow Holy Land is? Let's go there..."
"That's all we can do. Anyway, we must keep a low profile during this period."
The man reminded, and then said, "Don't look downcast, let's eat."
"Eat, eat, eat, don't talk about it yet."
"If you don't eat the vegetables, you might not be able to eat them in the future..."
The man with a crow's mouth was punched by someone else.
After several rounds of fighting, the atmosphere in the hospital finally improved a lot.
Clean the food and clear the table.
A clay statue was placed.
The facial features are blurred and the overall figure is about the size of an ordinary person.
The specific body parts and clothing details are too blurry to be identified.
When half of the shadow crystal was placed next to the clay statue, the shadow flowed towards it, slowly covering it and filling in the imperfections.
Finally, when the shadow was completely covered, the entire clay statue became extremely evil.
The floating shadows flow like mist, intertwining into a thin coat.
Especially the two pupils restore Jiang You's evil nature to a certain extent.
After absorbing the shadow crystal, everyone started to do something new, and finally worked together to make such a clay statue. Every festival, or simply when there is nothing to do, they come and say a few words.
The first brother lit three sticks of incense and bowed respectfully.
"Jiang Shen, life is getting more and more difficult for our brothers. The city patrols have been patrolling. Fortunately, we have not been discovered so far. Please protect our brothers and help everyone get through this difficult time."
When the incense was finished, he stepped back and got out of the way, and the second person stepped forward.
"Jiang Shen, I won't say anything about praying for safety. I want to win a lottery. Could you please help me?"
"Jiang Shen, my wife has been at home for half a year, but there is still no movement in her belly. Please bless me...I will give you some incense. The fireworks money merit box is too empty, so we will not deal with these impractical things."
"Jiang Shen, my husband and I want to have a second child..."
"..."
One person after another lit up the incense, and everyone became more and more peaceful.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the door was kicked open violently!
Several patrolmen pulled out the long knives from their waists with a ferocious smile.
"I received reports from the masses that there are shadow cultists here. Please come with me... Hey, what is that statue!?"
His eyes brightened and he looked at the statue behind the crowd that had not yet had time to return to its original state.
"Sir, misunderstanding!"
Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
"What a misunderstanding, take it all away with me!"
The patrolman waved his hand, and the younger brothers behind him rushed up and prepared to detain everyone and take them away.
"Fight them!"
The man gritted his teeth, picked up the kitchen knife at hand, and with a shadow wrapped around the blade, he slashed towards the patrolman.
The battle begins immediately!
Taking refuge in the shadows privately is a capital crime in Star Kingdom!
As for what law was broken... it can only be said that it was the "Latest Law of the Star Country"
Plop!
A man's head was pressed and hit the ground.
The patrolman put his legs on the other man's neck and removed the man's arms.
"Assaulting a patrolman will be punished with an additional penalty!"
The man's defeat was like the trigger of "defeat". Immediately afterwards, more and more people were pressed down, or fell to the ground, groaning in pain.
"When did the Star Alliance treat you badly? Na Jiang only showed up briefly twice, and yet you still believe it, you fools! Complete fools!"
"You have been thinking about Jiang Shen, and you have been working against our patrols and the Star Alliance all day long. Now that you have been caught, you have the ability to make the so-called Jiang Shen appear."
His smile was ferocious.
"We are just ordinary people." Someone retorted with difficulty.
"If you are an ordinary person, you will know when you come back with me."
The patrol captain sneered at the doctor and was about to order the person to be taken away when he suddenly realized something was wrong!
He looked around cautiously.
"team leader?!"
Several team members were horrified.
I don’t know when, the surroundings were completely replaced by shadows!
"Yes...it's Jiang Shen!!!"
Everyone was extremely surprised.
"I'm here, what next?"
A shadow rose from the ground and appeared behind the captain.
Jiang You suddenly had a strange expression on his face. He stretched out his hand and the captain's shirt was torn open, revealing several dim crystals.
The scene was a little thought-provoking for a while.
To be continued...
