The villain's daily corpse collection

At this time, the sky was full of auroras, and the blue-green light was floating above the sky, covering the entire temple and even the entire town.

Fuyuan is located in the north, and the celestial phenomena are unpredictable. Occasionally, there will be a few days of such strange phenomena. However, people born here will not be curious about it.

The people praying in the temple still put their hands together, bowed their heads and closed their eyes, as if they could block out any external interference.

Huo Feng and his companions were attracted by this celestial phenomenon. Just as they were observing the situation, a huge bell sounded in the temple. It was a huge bronze bell being struck. The sound carried a pure energy wave and rushed outward!

Huo Feng felt like someone was hitting him hard on the head with an iron tool. He held his forehead and tried his best to stay awake, but his brain seemed to be stirred up by an iron rod. The world was spinning faster and faster. He could hardly stand, so he could only stick the sword into the ground as his last resort.

Du Ximiao, Yuan Xiang, and You Shuguan subconsciously covered their ears and half-knelt down. But it was useless. Even though they couldn't hear the sound clearly, they were greatly affected. The organs of the body flew around because of the bumps, and the throat was full of fishy water, but they could only retch and couldn't spit out anything.

Huo Feng shook his head and used his peripheral vision to focus on the situation in front of him—those people began to kowtow, but were not affected by the sound at all.

It seemed that they were not just deaf, but their entire hearing sense was taken away, and they were unable to perceive any shock caused by the bell through their other four senses.

The bell struck twelve times, and suddenly the sky brightened. The people below realized that it was blinding and began to block out the light. A glowing object flew over the square where they were kneeling.

Everyone began to chant their wishes. Huo Feng listened carefully and found that what people were chanting were not slogans, but... very specific descriptions of the purpose of the artifacts they were requesting.

For example, a woman wants to borrow it to go back to her parents' home, a child wants to go to school to listen to a new class, and a doctor wants to borrow it to study whether he can save everyone...

The artifact has spirit, it can sense who needs hearing most at this moment, so it will give the ability to that person. Because it has been too long since the artifact was scattered in the mortal world, the power is not as strong as it was at the beginning, so it cannot help all the residents of the town at once. It can only restore hearing to a few people at a time, and use it in turns.

When it was originally used, the body fragments that had not yet been attached to it were even more mediocre, and it was only this year that the power of the artifact was brought into full play. At first, the guardian mountain god Zichun thought that she had accidentally activated the power of the artifact!

"Could it be that because of you, the artifact's hearing-restoring effect has become stronger this year?" Zichun heard about Wang's search for the fragments of the divine body and suddenly realized the real situation.

"Otherwise, do you think this is your achievement?" Wang Wei shrugged and said expressionlessly, "Now that I'm here, it's time to return it to its original owner. You have taken all the credit, so the artifact should be given to me."

"...Well, Lord God, please don't be anxious. I do this for the people here, not for myself." Zichun explained hurriedly.

Wang Wei opened his eyelids, but still no reaction. Zichun's momentum had dropped a lot. She scratched her head, not knowing how to respond. She had lived in this mountain for more than a hundred years.

"Is this what mortals call 'borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha'? I don't mind you using my power without permission before, but now I want to take what belongs to me. You accepted the offerings from these people, so use your own power to repay them."

Wang Wei suddenly appeared beside Zichun and grabbed her collar. Zichun only felt a breeze, and she was swept into a powerful force like a leaf. Wang Wei grabbed her and flew straight into the temple hall. When her feet landed on the ground, Wang Wei let go, and Zichun fell in front of the statue, and she barely regained consciousness.

Zichun shook her head. She had never flown so fast or so high in her life. The whole experience was very uncomfortable. "My lord, wait for me to calm down. I still need to talk to you about this in detail."

"Master, you are here!" While everyone was praying to the sky, Huo Feng and others ran into the hall to look for clues, but they did not expect that Wang Wei was also here.

"Have you found any clues?" She trusted her own people more than what outsiders said.

"My initial judgment is that the people here have had their hearing spirits taken away, and have lost all senses related to hearing. But the reason is hard to explain..." Huo Feng summarized the clues they had found in the hall.

"I can explain this!" Zichun got up from the ground, and the vines and branches growing on her body helped her brush off the dust on her dress.

"About a hundred years ago, some strange things appeared out of nowhere. They did not eat people, nor did they devour their spirits. Instead, they took away people's senses. The senses of the people taken away completely failed, and they became decorations. They looked no different from ordinary people, but in fact they had changed a lot."

Zichun took out a tattered ancient book, turned to a certain page and showed it to everyone, "Look, some people lost their vision, some lost their voice, and some lost their ability to move... The most terrifying thing is that this loss will be inherited. The people in Shejia Town are considered an extremely lucky group of people because they have the protection of the artifact and a mountain god like me with ordinary abilities. Without anyone to protect them, they will have to perish on their own."

Huo Feng lowered his head and thought. He seemed to have thought of something. He pulled Wang Wei aside and whispered, "Master, do you remember that we were in the secret realm? Those monsters looked like they were made up of various human organs. I wonder if these two things are the same thing."

Wang Wei recalled the original scene, and it was indeed just as weird. Could it be that those monsters absorbed the spirits of human organs to refine their actual bodies?

It cannot be confirmed now, but if it is really a monster, the solution is to find the absorber and kill it, so that the souls that have been extracted can come back.

"Do you know what monsters are? A kind of strange thing that does not exist within the four realms." Wang Wei looked at Zichun.

Zichun was stunned. What does this mean? "It's not something within the four realms... I really don't know. When I woke up, everyone in this town was already like this. Maybe it was their mind power that woke me up, so I want to help them even more."

"In that case," Wang Wei said, "Give me the artifact, and I will help you restore the hearing of everyone here."

After hearing this, Zichun was extremely surprised, but at the same time she also had many doubts.

She couldn't see through Wang Wei, but Wang Wei's power was much stronger than hers. Since the gods had spoken, they must be lying to her, right?

"Okay." Zichun nodded and mobilized his spiritual power to summon the flying artifact hanging outside.
