Chapter 233: Even if there is little hope, you have to try
The witch doctor looked at Su Xi with a look of hatred: "If so, do you want to take him away?" Since Abang is a person sent by the god recognized by the sacrifice, she will not give people to you easily. If not, are you going to leave alone? Do you think it's so easy for you to leave when you enter the Patriarch's mansion?"
The meaning of the witch doctor is that he doesn't want Su Xi to see Abang, or to be precise, he doesn't want Su Xi to come into direct contact with the sacrifice.
Su Xi didn't know what she would face in the future here, but she knew that if she wasn't sure who Abang was, even if she left, she wouldn't be willing and dead, let alone feel at ease.
Even if it was dangerous, she had to try, at least, to confirm Abang's identity.
"Thank you, Witch Doctor, for your kindness, but I will stay here until I see Abang. Su Xi also said solemnly to the witch doctor.
The witch doctor stared at Su Xi in a daze for a long time: "Even if you know that there is little hope and danger, do you still want to take a risk?"
Su Xi nodded without hesitation.
"So, will you help me?" If someone could help her, perhaps her chances of success would be higher.
The witch doctor looked at her puzzled: "Whether it is in front of the patriarch or the sacrifice, it is impossible for me to help you openly. ”
When Su Xi heard what he said, he knew that he had agreed.
"I need a map of this mansion. ”
This is basic, only by figuring out the general situation of the mansion, Su Xi's search for Abang in the dark night will be smoother.
Because from the mouth of the witch doctor, Su Xi suddenly realized that it was not that "Abang" did not want to go back to find his home and relatives, but that his freedom was restricted by the sacrifice, although Su Xi did not know what kind of ability this sacrifice had.
The witch doctor nodded, turned and disappeared into the night.
And because of the witch doctor's repeated obstructions, Su Xi's desire to see Abang became even stronger, was he really only concerned about his own safety, so he would come to obstruct him?
Or is there some secret that the sacrifice can't see, or maybe that Abang really has something to do with him?
The more questions there are, the heavier the curiosity, and now Su Xi is not only curious about Abang's identity, but also about the sacrifice, she seems to have a lot of questions.
So many people are afraid of her, even the witch doctor, who has a great reputation in the witch village, is extremely afraid of the sacrificial ceremony, and he doesn't know which way it is.
Su Xi has never bowed her head to anyone in modern times, and at this time there is a woman who seems to be very powerful, Su Xi also wants to learn a thing or two, of course, in the final analysis, it is because she has Abang in her hands, and her words are in charge of Abang's fate.
The fate of a man is held in the hands of a woman, and it feels too unreliable to think about it, and this woman's desire to control is too strong.
The next day, Su Xi came to the hall with the hope of being able to see Abang, but found that the patriarch's face was not very good, which made Su Xi's heart feel a little flustered and flustered, could it be that something went wrong?
"Patriarch, I will be able to meet the rescued man today. Su Xi deliberately used an affirmative tone, not giving the patriarch room to choose.
However, after a sigh, the patriarch said, "Miss Su, there is something I have to explain to you. As soon as these words came out, Su Xi was even more worried, it seemed that it was even more difficult for her to see that Abang.
"Patriarch, please speak. ”
"I went to ask the sacrifice yesterday, but the sacrifice didn't agree, the person sent by God is not someone who can see it at any time, so I advise the girl, Abang is not necessarily your husband, you see......"
The patriarch had an apologetic tone in his tone, and expressed his powerlessness to Su Xi.
Sure enough, a dignified patriarch still has to listen to the words of a sacrifice, but he can't resist a sacrifice, saying that he is a puppet, which is not an exaggeration at all, in vain When Su Xi first saw the patriarch, he thought he was magnificent, steady and very assertive, but the result was not much different from what he expected.
"This ......" Su Xi showed a disappointed look on his face, and his eyes were full of loss and helplessness when he looked at the patriarch.
"There's nothing I can do. The patriarch had to impose a little more, as if he hadn't dealt Su Xi enough just now, "Miss Su, I'm going to disappoint you, if not, you should go elsewhere to look for it, that Anbang may not be your husband." ”
Su Xi had already made up her mind that she had to take a look at Abang, but she was rejected at this time, where could she give up.
"Patriarch, but my entanglement has almost been spent, and there is no extra money for me to get on my way. Su Xi lowered his head and said pitifully.
The patriarch hurriedly said: "Housekeeper, go and get fifty taels of silver for Miss Su......"
"No, no," Su Xi hurriedly stopped the patriarch and said, "I don't mean that, in our place, we will never take other people's silver taels for nothing, if the patriarch is willing to help me continue to find my husband, it is better to let me work to make money, it is not considered to take your silver taels for nothing." What do you say?"
The patriarch smiled: "It seems that there are rules in some place, your rules there are very good, but I don't know, what will Miss Su do?"
Su Xi saw that the fish was hooked, and said with some embarrassment: "I will tell stories, if the patriarch does not dislike it, I will be waiting for you when you want to listen to the story." ”
When the patriarch heard this, he laughed even more happily, and applauded: "Okay, this is a brilliant idea, no one has told a story for a long time that can tell as vivid and engaging as yours, and the stories you tell are all things I have never heard." That being the case, you will continue to stay in the house, and when you have earned enough money for the journey, it will not be too late for you to set out. ”
"Thank you patriarch, Su Rong is grateful. Su Xi hurriedly thanked the patriarch, and the fake name was also very slippery.
In this way, Su Xi can be regarded as having a firm foothold in the mansion, at least, she has an absolutely sufficient reason to stay in the mansion.
The witch doctor spoke and came to see Su Xi near noon and brought her a map of the house.
Su Xi still admires his courage, since he is so afraid of sacrifices, and he is afraid that the patriarch will be suspicious, then why do he still look at himself so openly?
"Aren't you afraid of being suspected by the patriarch and the priests? If I'm not mistaken, there should be a lot of patriarchs or priests in this mansion. ”
Hearing Su Xi's words, the witch doctor smiled faintly, but the words he said made Su Xi glance at him fiercely: "You underestimated my status in Wu Village, and also overestimated your status in the patriarch's mansion, you are not a threat to the patriarch and the sacrifice at all, at most a woman looking for a husband, that's all." ”
