Chapter 932: Archmage
The group came to the outside of the girl's house, which was poor and had only a small courtyard with two thatched houses.
Through the low fence outside the courtyard, Wu Song saw that the courtyard was in a mess, and on the ground near the entrance of the hall, there was a corpse.
Looking at the dress, it was an elderly man.
Wu Song's heart sank, and he couldn't help but look at the girl next to him.
The girl walked beside Wu Song, she was relatively short, and she had not seen the situation in the yard yet.
Wu Song hurriedly stopped and said to the girl, "Wait a minute, I suddenly remembered, I just saw an acquaintance in the village, you wait a minute, I'll go find him and ask about the situation." ”
Wu Song said, secretly giving Gangfeng a look.
Gangfeng and Wu Song have fought together many times, and an extraordinary tacit understanding has already formed between the two. As soon as you see Wu Song like this, you know what he means.
Gangfeng followed Wu Song's words, "The people in the village are a little abnormal, something must have happened in the village, let's be careful, let Wu Song go and ask about the situation first." ”
Wu Song didn't wait for the girl to speak, then turned around and left quickly.
He turned a street until the wind blew and they couldn't see him. Then he turned to a path and went around to the back of the girl's house.
He climbed into the courtyard wall and came into the courtyard.
There were obvious signs of a struggle in the courtyard, and there was a pool of blood on a stone mill next to it, and there was a severed finger in the stone trough.
On the ground next to the stone mill, an axe was discarded, and the pattern was made by the farmer himself.
Wu Song came to the man who had fallen to the door of the hall, and the man fell face down to the ground.
There was a deep wound in his back, and a puddle of blood had accumulated under him. The blood stains were not dry, apparently not long after death.
Wu Song turned the man over, and there was a look of hatred on the man's face.
Wu Song walked into the hall, and on the ground on the left side of the hall, there was a woman. She fell to the ground on her back with a fatal wound on her neck, caused by a steel knife slash.
Wu Song sighed, and the result was obvious, the girl's parents were killed not long ago.
As for who killed them, Wu Song estimated that it had nothing to do with that county order.
Just as Wu Song was pondering, a girl's loud shout came from outside the courtyard, "I'm going to see my parents, don't stop me!"
Then the girl rushed in.
She saw the man at the door at a glance, and after a moment, she wailed and cried, and ran to the man and knelt down beside him.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" said the girl, crying.
Wu Song walked to the girl's side and wanted to pat the girl's shoulder, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he hesitated and did nothing.
Gangfeng and they all came in, Yang Shuang came to the girl's side, hugged her, and gave her some comfort.
Wu Song and the others put the bodies of the girl's parents together, and after the girl cried, they discussed with her how to bury the two old men.
In the process, some villagers gradually gathered outside the courtyard.
One of the old men walked out on crutches, pointed at the girl who was crying bitterly, and said sharply, "What's the use of you crying now?!"
Others echoed the old man's sentiments and blamed the girl.
Wu Song heard some sounds, walked outside, and looked around, "Fathers and fellow villagers, can you tell me what happened here?"
Everyone began to gossip, and finally Wu Song finally knew what had happened.
After the girl fled, although the county commander sent someone to chase her, he was worried that he would not find the girl, and at the same time, the fire in his heart could not be quelled, so he found the girl's parents and asked them to find their daughter in person.
The old couple disagreed, and after coming and going, the two sides quarreled. Finally, the girl's father picked up the axe next to the stone mill and chopped off one of the prefectural orders' fingers.
The guards of the county then launched a counterattack and killed all the two old men.
At the same time, the prefectural decree released a message, saying that the archmage had calculated that the girl was a scourge, and that it was necessary to sacrifice to heaven in order to appease the wrath of the heavens, and then to restore the weather to normal, so that everyone could grow crops.
If the girl returns, then all the villagers must immediately notify the prefectural order, otherwise they will be regarded as a scourge and a sinner for the whole village, just like the girl.
These villagers are very superstitious and believe in the words of the archmage.
That's why when the girl came back, the villagers reacted like that.
"So," Wu Song's anger grew stronger and stronger, "You have already notified the county order?"
One of the men pointed at Wu Song with a straight face, "Yes, such a scourge, why should we let her enter the village?"
"Not bad. ”
"Let her go!"
...
The villagers next to them all echoed, and these usually honest and simple people were like wolves in sheep's clothing at this time, showing their fierce fangs.
"That's enough!" Wu Song shouted, and a flame turned out in his hand and hit a nearby tree.
The tree where the two were hugging was interrupted in the middle by Wu Song's fireball. The tree fell to the ground with a thud.
As a result, all the villagers stopped and looked at Wu Song in disbelief. Some of the clever ghosts have already sneaked away.
Wu Song's eyes were on fire, and he glanced at these villagers, "She's just a teenage girl, every one of you grew up watching her, whether she is a scourge or not, don't you have points in your hearts?"
, you cowards, and don't let me see you again. ”
The surrounding villagers scattered in a hurry, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
At this moment, only to hear a burst of applause, a person crossed Erlang's legs, sat on the tree that was interrupted by Wu Song, and looked at Wu Song with a smile, "What you say, you are worthy of being a person who dares to go against the archmage, and dare to ask the name of the honorable master?"
The man was short, dressed in green and wore a tall hat on his head. If he hadn't spoken, Wu Song would have almost thought he was someone in the circus.
"You are the person sent by the county order?" Wu Song said coldly.
"Not bad. The man jumped down from the tree, and he stood face to face with Wu Song like this, and he looked even shorter, as if he was only three or four feet tall, "My name is Martin Ding, I don't know who Zun Jia is?"
"Wu Song. ”
"I see," Martin Ding was slightly surprised when he heard Wu Song's name, and then showed a sudden expression, "You are the rumored Wu Song, no wonder you have such courage." ”
Wu Song frowned slightly, "You know me?"
"People from the Jinwu Sect who don't know Brother Wu Song, I think they are either blind or deaf. Martindin grinned.
Wu Song lowered his head, "I should have thought that that archmage was sent by the Golden Crow Sect. ”
Martin Ding pulled out a box from his sleeve, "The Golden Crow Sect has given an order to everyone, so that whenever we meet you, we will fight for our lives, and we must take the Eye of the Sun from you." Therefore, under the offense. ”
"You're welcome. Wu Song's hand turned into a Yuanli long sword.
Martin Ding's box was the size of a man's palm, and when he opened it, he took out a small stick with a split tip.
He took the small stick, dipped it in the box, and then raised the stick and blew on Wu Song.
From the tip of the stick, bubbles fly out one by one, large or small, shining in the sunlight.
Martin Ding blew a few more breaths, and soon, the air was filled with hundreds of bubbles.
They flew towards Wu Song together without hurrying, although the bubble looked harmless, Wu Song knew that it must be a hidden mystery.
Wu Song didn't wait for the bubbles to fly in front of him, raised his right hand, and the Yuanli long sword in his hand flew out of his hand.
The sword pierced into the bubbles, piercing several bubbles in a row.
They burst open, making a small cracking sound.
Nothing happened, but Wu Song was still not at ease, he activated the phoenix song technique, and a burst of flame erupted from his mouth, sweeping the bubbles in the air.
In the blink of an eye, the bubbles floating in the air were almost completely broken by Wu Song.
In the roar of the flames, the cracking sound of those bubbles was like a tough steel wire, and it still clearly entered Wu Song's ears.
However, Wu Song did not pay attention to such subtleties.
After the bubbles in the air disappeared, Wu Song spread his flame wings and flew towards Martin Ding.
Martin Ding looked at Wu Song with a smile and said softly, "Stop!"
Wu Song suddenly felt as if his body had been grabbed by a pair of invisible big hands, and he could no longer move.
He was taken aback, and hurriedly used Yuan Li, trying to break free. But it's completely useless, the yuan power in the body seems to have flowed out of a bottomless pit, and there is not a trace of yuan power in the body.
This time, Wu Song was even more surprised.
Martin Ding didn't do anything at all, how did he become like this?
With a smug smile on his face, Martin Ding walked slowly in front of Wu Song, "Brother Wu Song, I'm going to take the Eye of the Sun from you." ”
Suddenly, there was a boom, and a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck Martindin.
The lightning slashed at Martindin's head like a huge blue sword.
At this moment, Wu Song felt that the invisible force that had grabbed him suddenly disappeared, and he came back. Wu Song flapped his flame wings and flew backwards, away from Martin Ding.
The wolf and the wind had already arrived, and Wu Song landed beside the two.
The wolf asked, "Angkor, are you alright?"
Wu Song stared at Martin Ding, "I'm fine, but that person's exercises are very weird, you must be careful of the bubbles he blows." ”
Martin Ding was struck by the wolf's lightning, but at the moment he stood intact in front of the three of them.
A huge bubble enveloped Martindine like a transparent shield, blocking the lightning bolt just now.
