Fengshen: I, Nezha, don’t need a system

"What a sin!" Old Huang couldn't hold back his tears, his voice trembling, "What a sin!"

Behind him, a dozen villagers stood with sad expressions, staring at the woman lying in the grass in front of them.

"Village chief, this evil spirit is causing more and more harm to people." The sturdy man looked sad and said in a choked voice: "Look at the girl from the Li family..."

He and the Li brothers grew up together. Now seeing that the Li brothers have no descendants, he feels unbearable grief.

In this remote mountain village, the population is sparse, and the villagers are more or less related. Now that something like this has happened, everyone feels bad.

"Look! There seems to be something moving in Miss Li's arms!" someone suddenly shouted.

Everyone looked at the woman's arms and found that there was indeed something squirming.

Everyone was terrified and stepped back subconsciously. At this moment, no one dared to take a step forward.

"Let me see."

Finally, it was Old Huang who stood up. He wiped his tears and leaned over to check. When he saw this, he was stunned. What he held in his arms was not some foreign object, but a newborn baby with its eyes closed and unable to open them.

The movement in the arms is that of a sleeping baby, with his little hands scratching at something.

"This... This is the child of the Li family's sister."

The village chief's voice became more and more trembling, and then he slowly took the baby out of the woman's arms and held the baby carefully in his arms.

The baby didn't make any noise when he was picked up, and his eyes didn't even open.

I changed my position and continued to sleep.

The people around looked at the little guy and were silent for a moment, as if they didn't know how to deal with such a thing.

However, at this moment, a sudden scream broke the silence.

Everyone turned to look and saw a woman pointing in horror towards the depths of the woods in the distance, where black shadows were flashing quickly.

"Everyone, go back to the village!"

Old Huang yelled immediately.

All the villagers present became nervous. It was obvious that the evil spirit had come back because it had discovered the child's scent. Not only had it harmed the mother, it also came back to eat the child.

At this moment, a deep voice came: "Don't panic!"

The one who spoke was the old village chief. His words seemed to have magical power, calming the panicked villagers down quickly.

The old village chief continued, "Men, protect the women and boys, and quickly retreat to the village!"

Hearing this, the men in the village immediately took action. Without hesitation, they stood in front of the woman and the boy, forming a solid line of defense.

Then the men took the women and the boy and ran quickly towards the village.

Although there was fear on everyone's face, no one panicked, and although the pace was fast, no problems occurred.

However, what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations.

The black shadow did not chase them relentlessly as the villagers had imagined, but stayed where it was, quietly watching the villagers leave.

When the last villager entered the village, the black shadow suddenly turned around and left, soon disappearing without a trace.

At this time, many villagers gathered at the entrance of the village.

After experiencing the thrilling scene just now, they all felt like they had escaped death and were breathing heavily.

The old village chief held the sleeping child in his arms, his eyes complicated and worried.

He knew that as long as the child was still there, the evil spirits would not let them go. These evil spirits had a strong desire for the newborn baby and would do whatever it took to snatch the child away.

Too many babies have died in the village because of this.

"We have to protect this child. Otherwise, our village will lose the birth of new babies and there will be no hope of continuing."

The old village chief said firmly.

Children are the future.

The other villagers nodded in agreement.

It’s not just about saving this child, but also about saving the baby that may be theirs in the future.

However, some villagers were also pregnant and were preparing to give birth like the girl from the Li family.
