Chapter Twenty-Eight: Worshipping the Moon
After hearing this, Shu Shu said with the same indignation on his face: "Eighteen, since we go up the mountain, we are a family, your business is the business of the Rat Village, and this enmity is the enmity of my Rat Village, you have the right and peace of mind, we will never sit idly by." ”
"Thank you. Ma Weiliang thanked him repeatedly.
"I've heard that the Ghost King is dead, and I'm afraid I won't have a chance to use it. The only female leader named Eleven Yunxi said, "The Wind King is assigned to the state, but it is an opportunity to give Eighteen a small meeting gift. ”
Although the Wind King is declining, he is also the king of Duanguo, and there are many forces in the state, and they are intertwined, so they are a little arrogant when they talk like they are probing for things. Whether it is arrogant or supernatural, Ma Weiliang is not sure.
A leader who looked very old and had a somewhat obscene gaze said, "It's the fifth day of the next month." ”
Jiuqian approached Ma Weiliang and whispered: "He is Er Mu, the most cruel of the leaders of the Rat Village, and the people who died at his hands were unrecognizable. ”
"Just listen to the second brother. "Eleven clouds and nights are not muddy.
Ma Weiliang gasped and said, "Thank you, second brother, eleventh sister." ”
"It's called Brother Eleven. ”
"Yes, thank you Brother Eleven. ”
Shu Shu laughed and said, "We only have brothers, no sisters, and the sisters are all in the cat dock above, hahahaha." ”
"Haha. The crowd burst into laughter.
Eleven Yunxi stopped laughing, and said: "Eighteen, next month, my second brother and I are going to Zhizhou to do errands, and when I pass by, I will bring you back a gift by the way, just a little wind king, don't worry about it, so as not to delay the practice." ”
"Yes, everything is arranged by Brother Eleven. Ma Weiliang said excitedly.
Joining Rat Village, the first thing Ma Weiliang wanted to learn was Rat Language. Rat language has only a few syllables, longer sentences, are also made of the same sound superimposed, not complicated, plus Ma Weiliang studied hard, less than a month has been able to communicate smoothly, when there is nothing to do, I like to chat with the mice. When I was a child in the village, I often heard adults swearing rats pointing to bitten clothes or stolen food, but now that I have been in contact with them for a long time, I find that they are very spiritual, affectionate, and even a little cute.
Although the people of Rat Zhuang don't seem to treat him as an outsider, he still feels that he is different from them, not that he is suspicious, maybe it is because they are too polite that makes him feel like an outsider as a guest. He was always cautious when interacting with the leaders and soldiers, not daring to let his guard down completely, but when he was with these mice, he was able to open his heart even more.
The first two rats he knew had gray hair, big and round eyes, and a head that was one size bigger than the other mice, so he named him Big Gray. Big Gray's friend Xiaobai is a white mouse with a disabled leg, so he has also become the second mouse friend Ma Weiliang knows.
Ma Weiliang has become the leader, so he naturally has his own room, so he often asks Da Ash and Xiao Bai to drink and chat in the room, which is also comfortable. In addition to daily practice, he was also idle, so Ma Weiliang found a small piece of wood, made many small tables and chairs, and then put on a small wine glass, which made Da Ash and Xiao Bai happy, so he called friends to come together, more and more tables and chairs, and more and more rats came and went here, and every night was like a banquet, so it was not lively.
After drinking wine as usual on this day, Ma Weiliang suddenly remembered the moon worship he had seen when he was fleeing, so he asked the rats sitting below about it, and the room suddenly became silent, and the originally lively scene instantly became cold.
Xiaobai wanted to speak, but was grabbed by Da Ash and shook his head, and when the others saw Da Ash doing this, it turned out that a few people who wanted to speak also closed their mouths.
Ma Weiliang didn't expect this, he was very surprised, but after thinking about it, maybe it was some secrets of the rats, but it didn't hurt, so he didn't ask anymore, but the rats were preoccupied, and the next wine was a little dull, and it ended early.
After brushing the dishes and cups, Ma Weiliang couldn't sleep a little and walked out. Breathing in the fresh air and staring at the starry sky, Ma Weiliang thought to himself that he had been on the mountain for so long, and he didn't know what happened to his brothers.
There are many shadows in the woods on the side, it seems that there are people, Ma Wei said in his conscience, someone dares to trespass on the mouse village? dodged and hid aside, peeking at it, it turned out to be Shu Shu, the owner of the village, and two strangers, one of whom was holding a cat in his arms.
Shu Shu said with a serious face: "You mean the four internal organs of the giant beast Red Squid that was killed back then?"
"Yes, getting any of them can increase infinite strength, and there are few invincibles in the world. A woman touched the cat in her arms and said, "But no one can find those magical enchantments, and even if they do, they can't deal with the guardians of those enchantments." ”
"What's so difficult about this, I, Gou Zhuang, sent a hundred wild dogs, and kept him to tear him apart. Another said. It seems that it is the people of Maowu and Dog Castle, and they can meet directly with the owner of the village, could it be Master Mao and Gou Niu? Ma Wei said in conscience. After going up the mountain for so long, I have only seen people with the three peaks of rats, cats, and dogs, and the other five peaks have never been seen.
"Although these wild dogs are fierce, I am afraid that they will not be able to get close to them. "Master Mao didn't save him face at all, it seems that this big man of Mu Na doesn't like girls," like the old snake catcher woman who guards the liver of the red pig, on the surface, she is no different from ordinary old women, but even the ghost king who was surprised back then suffered her loss. ”
"Old snake catcher?" Shu Shu and Gou Niu both looked dazed.
Master Mao slapped the kitten's moving paws in his arms and said: "In the early years, there was an old man surnamed Liu, who had been catching snakes for generations, and his wife called herself an old snake catcher, and it is said that she was the one who helped the Blood King escape twenty years ago, and also killed the son of the Ghost King, and then disappeared. ”
"Do you know where she is now?" Shu Shu asked.
"You are so many rat soldiers and rat generals, why do you still need to ask me. Master Mao asked jokingly.
Shu Shu was a little displeased, but he didn't dare to attack, and sneered at each other: "No matter how many mice there are, they can't compare to your benefactors in the cat dock, so the news is naturally not so well-informed." ”
"You!" Master Mao's apricot eyes widened.
"Okay, okay, why do you two quarrel as soon as you get down to business. Gou Niu hurriedly played a round.
"I can't admit my mistake. Shu Shu hurriedly smiled, "Sister Mao, don't be angry, it's all my fault, where is the old snake catcher hiding?"
"Hmph. "I heard that it is in a magical place, where it is always autumn, and the fruit will grow again as soon as it is picked, and it will never be eaten." ”
"It's amazing. Gou Niu's saliva flowed with envy, "If our dog fort is there, won't there be endless meat and bones." ”
"Haha. Shu Shu and Master Mao almost laughed, but Master Mao covered his mouth and said, "You can still plant meat and bones in the ground." ”
Gou Niu's face was flushed, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only laugh wryly. The three of them didn't seem to know what to say, and Master Mao broke the silence: "It's not early, let's go back." ”
"Su Qiugu?" Ma Wei's conscience was stunned, and he disappeared into the darkness.
Shu Shu looked into the distance and confirmed that there was no one around, so he nodded to the other two. Master Mao asked, "Eighteen Wei Liang really went to Suqiu Valley?"
"Well, when Jiuqian went to pick him up, he said it himself, and he also saw the legendary trapped snake picture. ”
"In this way, Master Zisong's skills can be further refined," Master Mao stroked the cat's chin and said with a smile, "But, are you sure he will take us there?"
"Nine times out of ten. Shu Shu smiled sinisterly.
Ma Weiliang returned to his room along the path, and was about to open the door, but saw Xiaobai limping in with a big gray with a blue nose and swollen face, throwing it on the ground and squeaking.
Ma Weiliang was very surprised, and hurriedly asked in rat language: "Xiaobai, what's wrong?"
"You are our friend and should not be hidden from you. Xiaobai said angrily.
It turned out that after the wine was dispersed, Xiaobai and Da Ash quarreled, and Xiaobai said angrily: "Eighteen is our friend, so good to us, why can't we tell him?"
"But he is also a person from Rat Village, as long as he is a person from Rat Village, there is no good thing. Big Ash shouted unconvinced.
The two rats became more and more noisy, and they actually started to move, although Xiaobai was disabled in the leg, but he was very brave in the fight, and the big gray who was two circles stronger than it was not an opponent, and was pressed to the ground and beaten fatly, and finally the two little guys were exhausted and lay on the ground.
"I said brother," Xiao Bai gasped and said in a gentle tone, "We have been killed so badly, have we endured it all the time? Except for Ma Weiliang, no one can help us, why don't you give it a try?"
"But aren't you afraid that he was sent by Shu Shu?"
"How much else can it break? I've already broken a leg, it's a big deal to break my leg. Xiao Bai said hatefully, "The Rat King has been imprisoned in the dungeon until now, we can only obey his orders, why does he need to send someone to calculate us?"
Da Ash was speechless, and Xiao Bai picked up Da Ash and came here.
"You mean, the Rat King was imprisoned by them?" asked Ma Weiliang.
"Alas, more than ten years ago, this mountain fell from the sky, and a group of people who could speak rat language but were extremely despicable, we did not obey their orders, so they captured our king, I was originally a guard of the rat king, naturally I could not sit idly by, and as a result, I broke a leg. Xiaobai said, his eyes turned blood-red because of anger, "We worship the moon to pray that our king can be safe and healthy in the dungeon, and we also pray that God can send someone to help us rescue the rat king and punish these bad people." ”
Ma Weiliang was surprised, although he had always known what Rat Zhuang had done, but in order to climb this big tree and complete his wish for revenge, he didn't care too much about many things.
Da Ash and Xiao Bai stared at Ma Weiliang, tears flashing in their eyes, looking forward to his reply, if he told Shu Shu, then the two of them would naturally lose their lives.
Ma Weiliang said solemnly: "Don't worry, I won't sit idly by, do you know where the Rat King is imprisoned?"
Big Ash and Little White shook their heads together with grateful eyes.
"Then how can I save it?" Ma Weiliang looked embarrassed.
Big Ash and Little White shook their heads together with puzzled eyes.
Ma Weiliang couldn't laugh or cry, but still said solemnly to them: "I swear, I will keep it a secret, and I will definitely help you rescue the Rat King, okay?"
"Squeak. Da Lai and Xiao Bai danced happily, Ma Weiliang looked at them, but his heart hurt like a knife, any living creature has the right to live and be free, and any depriver is a sinner.
Self-preservation is the oldest law of nature!
Ma Weiliang was lying on the bed, all kinds of thoughts swirling in his mind, the shamelessness of Jiuqian, the viciousness of Ermu, and the accusations of mice, all of which seemed to remind him that this was not a good place. Ma Weiliang secretly decided: After avenging the blood revenge and saving the Rat King, he will leave here by himself and will never be nostalgic.
In the face of the evil that they know they are all about, they always believe that they are the smartest, that they can get out of the mud without being stained, and that they are full of luck and greed!
Recalling the words he overheard in the woods, Ma Weiliang couldn't help but think of Fairy Suqiu, if he could stay with her in that valley after the revenge was avenged, he would have no regrets in this life. Time is running out, Ma Weiliang jumped out of bed, and continued to practice, the sooner he makes himself strong and takes revenge, the sooner he can get out of here.
