Chapter 46 The Taken
Xiao Chengqian stood behind me and naturally refused to pass by. However, he was no longer as domineering as before and was just silent. If it had been in the past, he would have cursed loudly.
Tao Bo stood behind Lu Shan. In addition to his usual shyness, he was also a little scared. Lu Shan subconsciously protected Tao Bo.
However, the old Taoist was very indifferent. He just closed his eyes slightly and waved his hand. The other Taoist priests on the carriage jumped down and walked straight over. It seemed that they wanted to take Xiao Chengqian and Tao Bo away by force.
Are you about to take action? I subconsciously wanted to take action, but I was confused for a moment. What kind of technique should I use? I don't know what kind of technique I should use to suppress these people. This is my first time fighting.
So no confidence.
However, there was no need for me to be confused at all. The old man sitting on the carriage just waved his hand, and the sky where we were was suddenly turbulent, and it was about to accumulate into thick dark clouds.
Instant thunder technique? I thought of my master, and I realized how insignificant my resistance was, but it was impossible to let Xiao Chengqian and Tao Bo be taken away like this. I gritted my teeth and decided to use the secret technique.
Try your best, just like last time, use your soul to inspire the power of heaven and earth!
"Xiao Chengqian, I won't hurt him. As for him, he will join you soon, because he is just a more interesting sacrifice." Seeing my hand gestures, the old man said again.
At this time, the dark clouds in the sky had already formed, and the lightning flashed across the Thunder Jue without causing any damage. I was very surprised why this old man wanted to explain to me, but then he immediately cleared up my doubts: "There is no eye for fighting, and I don't want to hurt you."
For such an excellent sacrifice, you should just wait and be sacrificed with peace of mind."
How could I wait with peace of mind, but his next words completely shattered my will.
"If you want to meet your master."
Master! Master, I immediately stopped doing the hand gestures, my eyes went blank for an instant, and the word "meet" was like the heaviest hammer hitting my chest, directly shattering everything.
The guard went straight to the softest part of his heart and then triggered all kinds of emotions, but his body was so stiff that he could no longer move.
"I'll go with him." Xiao Chengqian suddenly stood up from behind me and walked towards the Taoist priests.
I just woke up and grabbed Xiao Chengqian's arm. How could brothers who share life and death give up? Even meeting the master cannot be an excuse. I said: "No, no matter how difficult it is, even if you die, it won't matter."
Will betray you."
Xiao Chengqian turned around and smiled at me and said: "That's not what I meant, but my intuition is that he won't hurt me, and there is another feeling that tells me that I should go with him."
I was silent, but my hand did not let go. No matter what the circumstances, I could not give up anyone or anyone around me!
"It's true, Chengyi! If you are really for me." Xiao Chengqian was very calm, but his eyes were sincere and firm.
My feelings at the moment were chaotic, and my usually excellent spiritual sense could not predict anything. Everything was in chaos, and I was so confused that I could not see clearly what was ahead. However, the old man on the carriage just said unhurriedly: "I don't have it."
It is necessary to cheat the sacrifice."
Xiao Chengqian broke away my hand with a little force, patted my shoulder, took out his cherished box of cigars from his pocket, stuffed it into me, and said: "If you can't moisturize it, the taste will definitely not be as good as the cigars that have been carefully cared for."
, but when you meet Mr. Jiang, give him one and let him comment on whether it is better than cigarettes. Believe me, you can meet Mr. Jiang, and I will definitely be safe."
I squeezed the cigar in my hand tightly, my knuckles turned white, then I took a long breath and put the cigar into my pocket. Trust and trust. At this time, we can only give each other trust and trust. Then I looked at Xiao Chengqian’s heavy nods.
He shook his head.
Xiao Chengqian strode towards the old man, shouting: "Is it okay if I go? But don't let that child go."
"Forget it, it's just a sacrifice, no need to bring it with you." The old Taoist seemed to pay a little attention to Xiao Chengqian's words, and he inexplicably agreed to Xiao Chengqian's request. I saw Lu Shan breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked over
The people around me seemed to want to explain something to me.
Xiao Chengqian was pulled into the car by the Taoist priests. It seemed that he wanted to wave to me gracefully, but it must be the pressure from the Taoists that made him feel uncomfortable. In the end, he just shook his hand very slightly and said,
Don't worry and didn't say anything, you could only watch his mouth move.
"You are not as talented as him." The old Taoist said something to Xiao Chengqian inexplicably. Xiao Chengqian suddenly shrank his body. It seemed that he was a little afraid of the pressure of the old Taoist's words, but the next moment he relaxed again. It seemed that the old Taoist had deliberately held back.
With his own aura, Xiao Chengqian suddenly said loudly: "Yes, I lost to him before, and I always wanted to win back."
The old Taoist was indifferent and didn't say anything. Perhaps in his eyes, winning or losing as a sacrifice like us was like a fight between ants.
The carriage slowly turned and then moved forward slowly. The people wearing bamboo hats began to walk towards us. I waited without feeling and just stared at the carriage that was slowly moving away. My heart was filled with all kinds of things.
Questions, worries and confusion.
"Aren't you familiar with me? Haha." The old man didn't look back, but inexplicably turned around and pointed at me, and then smiled so weirdly that I stood on the spot, why should I do this to him?
Is he familiar?
It's a pity that apart from these words, he didn't leave a single word at all. In the morning light, the group of people just walked away in silence, and Xiao Chengqian didn't turn his head to look at us. A few more glances at this time would be afraid of increasing the number of us.
Worry, this should be what he is thinking, right?
"Follow us." The few people wearing bamboo hats walked up to us silently while we were in a daze, and said coldly, "Follow us." This was what the leader said.
Ruyue gently pulled my arm. Perhaps the inexplicable thing just now made her instinctively afraid. After all, the pressure brought by the old master is indescribable, and it will make people feel an invisible fear.
Holding my arm, Ruyue seemed to have some courage. She looked at these people in bamboo hats and asked, "Where are you taking us?"
"Of course it's the place where the sacrifices should go." One of the men in bamboo hats said calmly.
———————————————————Dividing line——————————————————————
Behind the mountain range that looks like the south, it turns out that there is really a valley, sandwiched between two mountains. It looks like a sliver of sky when you first enter it, but there is a small trail between the two mountains.
We walked silently behind these people in bamboo hats, and the road that originally looked like a narrow path became wider and wider as we walked, and the distance between the two mountains gradually became longer. At this time, it no longer looked like a road, but a road.
It's like walking on a plain that is gradually opening up.
What's strange to me is that the veteran group only set out less than ten minutes before us. We walked on the road but never saw them. Where did they go?
Unfortunately, there is no answer to this question. Lu Shan has been walking beside me, wanting to explain something to me, but he still didn't say it because he was afraid of those cloaked people. However, my senior brothers and sisters, as well as Tao Bo and
Hui Gen'er felt completely relaxed, chatting and laughing all the way, as if she was traveling to a new place again.
Just because Brother Chengqing, who had been playing with the copper coins in his hand, said: "Xiao Chengqian, be safe."
They feel at ease. Sometimes, Brother Chengqing’s divination skills are more reliable than my spiritual sense. It’s just a simple test of good or bad luck. Even for people around me, it’s not a big deal. After all, Xiao Chengqian and our
The relationship needs to be more distant.
In this atmosphere, we walked all the way until we reached a very open place surrounded by low hillsides. The group of people in bamboo hats finally stopped.
A village finally appeared in front of us, a typical northwest village. Except for a few brick houses that seemed a bit out of place, almost all the houses were cave dwellings built on the slopes of low mountains. So is this a holy village?
