Chapter Eighty-Four: The Strange Beads
I knew that the people of the Blood Poison Sect must be hiding in the woods, so I had been secretly paying attention to the surrounding woods, wanting to see if the people from the Blood Poison Sect would appear from that direction.
It didn't take long for two men in black to come out of the woods and stand down in front of the crowd, and one of the shorter ones said, "How did this group of people do it, how did they come later and later, and it was really sinful that we should wait here for so long on such a cold day." ”
Another tall person said: "If you want to blame our low qualifications, if you have good qualifications, which elder has been accepted as an inner disciple, you can stay in the room now to eat and drink spicy food and spicy food without being affected by the cold, you don't have to complain anymore, let's hurry up and do the things in front of us well, in case something goes wrong, the elder initiates a rush, and we can't see the sun tomorrow." ”
Listening to the two of them discussing in front, I whispered to Lan Yan'er, "Why are those elders of the Blood Poison Sect so harsh on their disciples, won't you Ghost Shadow Sect be like this?"
"How is it possible, I have always been very good to my subordinates, they do something wrong, I better scold them twice, and never hit them. ”
"Who's talking?"
Lan Yan'er and I were talking, and the tall man in black suddenly looked at us and asked, so frightened that Lan Yan'er and I hurriedly stood in the crowd with our heads down, for fear that we would be discovered by the two men in black.
Hearing what the tall man in black said, the short man in black also hurriedly looked at the crowd and the surroundings, and after finding that there was nothing abnormal, he turned to the tall teammate next to him and said, "Brother, although the task is more important, you don't have to be so nervous, how can anyone come to this place in the middle of the night, unless it is haunted." ”
The tall man in black took a closer look at the crowd and the surroundings, sighed and said, "Alas", "Maybe I'm really too cautious, I've been nervous about this matter recently, I really hope this matter will end soon, so I don't have to worry about it every day." ”
The short man in black said impatiently: "Okay, don't talk so much nonsense, let's quickly collect the essence and go back to the elder, the elder will get angry if he is in a hurry." ”
After the short man in black finished speaking, he took out a bead from his arms, and the two of them injected spiritual power into the bead together, and then saw the bead fly up from his hand and levitate in the air.
After the bead was suspended in the air, I immediately felt that a force was absorbing this thing from my body, and I hurriedly resisted this force with my spiritual power to prevent my essence from being sucked away by this bead.
After about ten minutes, the tall man in black spoke: "It's almost, these people will be in danger of their lives if they suck too much essence." ”
The short man didn't care what the tall man in black said, while continuing to control the beads to absorb the essence of this group of people, he said indifferently: "What are you afraid of, these people are not your relatives, why do you care about them so much, if something really happens, there are still elders and they are on top, let's absorb more of the essence of these people, and we can save a few trips." ”
The tall man in black was probably afraid that something would happen if he continued like this, so he hurriedly withdrew his spiritual power from the bead and withdrew the bead into his hand.
The short man in black was controlling the beads to absorb the essence, and when he saw the tall man in black suddenly put the beads away, he asked vigorously: "Why are you doing, you don't dare to absorb more of their essence, I'll just come by myself, what do you mean by suddenly putting the beads away?"
The tall man in black also got angry, ignored the short man in black, and directly took the beads back into his arms, then took out a flute from his arms, put it in his mouth and blew it.
The group of people who were still standing quietly just now suddenly moved, slowly turned around, and walked towards the way they came, Lan Yan'er and I hurriedly followed the crowd and walked back, probably because they were sucked in some of their essence, this group of people looked much weaker than just now, and their skin looked much worse, giving people a feeling of being much older in an instant.
After following the crowd for a while, after making sure that there was no one else around, I pulled Lan Yan'er out of the crowd and walked in the opposite direction, Lan Yan'er asked puzzledly: "We already know that they control these people to come out to absorb their essence, what else are they going to do?"
I explained as I walked: "We just know that they want to absorb the essence of this group of people, but we don't know what they are trying to do by absorbing the essence of this group of people, there must be some conspiracy for them to do this, let's follow and take a look." ”
Yue'er and I quietly returned to the open space just now, but we couldn't see the two men in black, Lan Yan'er said unhappily: "You plan to follow them, why didn't you come back earlier, you have to go so far to return, and now that no one can find them, how can you track them?"
smiled mysteriously and said, "It's simple, just follow me, I promise you won't lose it." ”
I was afraid that I would really not be able to catch up after a long time, I hurriedly pulled Lan Yan'er to chase after me, and I didn't go far before I heard the sound of someone talking in front of me, and when I heard the voice, it was the two black-clothed people just now, for fear of being discovered by them, Lan Yan'er and I hurriedly slowed down the footsteps and approached the two people quietly, but we didn't dare to get too close, for fear of being discovered by them.
While following them, Lan Yan'er whispered: "Stinky boy, hurry up and explain honestly, how did you know that they were going in this direction, do you have any special means?"
I shook my head and whispered, "I don't have any special means, I just paid special attention to where they came from, so I just dragged you to follow them." ”
After following them for half an hour, I found that the road in front of me was becoming more and more familiar, and after a closer look, I found that it was the road I went to the Blood Poison Sect Villa last time, and it seemed that they were going back to that villa.
Sure enough, it didn't take long to go, and the villa appeared in front of him, and the patrolling person in front of the door saw the two people coming back, and hurriedly greeted: "Why did the two brothers go for so long today, it can't be that there is something unexpected, right?"
The short man in black opened his mouth and said: "Our two brothers are out of the horse, how can there be an accident, it's just that those people have been sucking their essence for a few days, and their bodies are much weaker, so where did the two of us wait for a long time to come over, if it wasn't for their delay, we would have come back a long time ago." ”
The patrolman nodded and said, "So that's the case, the two brothers should hurry up and return to their lives, the elders are already in a hurry, and they just sent someone out to check if you have returned." ”
Hearing what the patrolman said, the two men in black seemed to be very scared, and hurriedly walked towards the inside of the villa, seeing the two people hurriedly walking towards the villa, the person who took the lead in the patrol said: "Okay, let's go to patrol quickly, the last time that person ran out, the elder has already been very angry, if something goes wrong again, let's all wait to be executed by the elder." ”
Taking advantage of their patrols, Lan Yan'er and I quickly slipped in, since we had been to a mountain villa last time, we were familiar with this mountain villa, and walked towards the backyard while avoiding the guards.
As soon as I walked to the backyard, I saw that two men in black were standing in the pavilion of the pond, reporting something to a person in front of him, who had his back to us and couldn't see his face clearly, but I guessed that person must be the bad old man who put us in the dungeon last time.
Because of the distance, I couldn't hear what they were talking about, but I saw the tall man in black take out the bead from his arms, and the person in front of them turned around and took the bead from the tall man's hand.
When the man turned around, he clearly saw that the man was the bad old man who had imprisoned us.
After the bad old man got the beads, he waved his hand and motioned for the two of them to go down, Lan Yan'er and I hurriedly hid behind the rockery, for fear of being discovered by the two men in black, the two men in black passed by the rockery beside us, and let out a long breath, as if they had escaped death, and after they walked out of the backyard, Lan Yan'er and I poked our heads out from behind the rockery and looked towards the pavilion on the pond.
I saw the bad old man standing quietly in the pavilion, looking down at the water, and after a while, the bad old man stretched out his hand, holding the bead in his hand, and whispering something in his mouth, vaguely sounding as if he was chanting a spell.
Lan Yan'er asked in a low voice beside her: "What the hell is this bad old man going to do, where is he muttering a spell to that bead, it can't be that we were discovered by him, he plans to use that bead against us, right?"
Hearing Lan Yan'er say this, I took a closer look, the bad old man's eyes were staring at the water, not looking at us, it shouldn't be that we were discovered, I shook my head and said: "Probably not, look at the bad old man's appearance, it seems to be looking at the things in the water, the last time I passed by this pool, I found that this pool was a little weird, as if there was something mysterious in the water, and with the character of the bad old man, if he really found us, he would have pulled us out a long time ago." ”
Lan Yan'er said a little surprised: "What? You said that there is something in this pool, I also walked through here last time, and I jumped into the water, and I didn't find anything strange in the water?"
"That's because you're so stupid, okay, stop talking, and you'll really be found out by that bad old man. ”
We continued to look at the bad old man, and he continued to chant the incantation, and the beads in his hand slowly shone brightly, and flew up from the bad old man's hands, floating on the water, and the sound of the bad old man's incantation became louder and louder, and the beads became more and more moony, and finally the whole pool was illuminated, and after it was so bright to the extreme, it began to emit essence from the beads, which was the essence that had just been absorbed from the people.
