Chapter 117: Helplessness to make up for the day before yesterday
"After thinking about it, I still didn't expect it to be you!"
The black-robed elder sighed in front of him, unable to tell if he was surprised by Chonghua's appearance or other feelings. On the other hand, Chonghua seems to be in a very good mood at the moment because he has finally been completely resurrected, and now he is full of smiles.
In fact, Chonghua looks quite good, and his behavior is actually quite graceful, and he is a gentleman as a whole, but the coercion that naturally emanates from his body still makes Xu Yang a little breathless.
After a little hesitation, he figured out what he should be doing now, so while shouting for the surrounding villagers to leave, he walked against the crowd to the front, blocking in front of Chonghua.
The blue-robed elder's face turned green with anger! It was useful to call the villagers over by himself, but Xu Yang called the people away again without saying a word, although he was in the consideration of the safety of the villagers, but he was still quite angry.
However, the black-robed elder didn't pay too much attention to this, and shook his head at the blue-robed elder who was very angry, signaling him not to do anything superfluous.
"What's wrong? Planning to run? ”
"Run? Why run? ”
The black-robed elder tilted his head and laughed after hearing Chonghua's ridicule, as if he had heard something very funny.
The surrounding villagers were quickly dispersed by Xu Yang's efforts, and Xu Yang was still standing outside the house, staring at Chonghua very nervously, and he didn't dare to act rashly without knowing what the other party wanted to do.
Chonghua took a step forward, and Xu Yang and the blue-robed elder suddenly panicked, but Xu Yang didn't dare to stop him, so he had to let him walk to the door of the house step by step.
"I'm not interested in what you want to do, I'm looking for someone, and this person should be in your hands."
"Who are you looking for? That Cao Yufan? ”
Xu Yang subconsciously thought of Cao Yufan who was locked in the dungeon by them, because he was in the cemetery before, and he also noticed that this Chonghua seemed to know Cao Yufan. However, Chonghua shook his head and denied:
"Cao Yufan is just a small person, I don't have much interest in him, I'm looking for another person, his name is White Cocoon."
"Cocoon? But the cocoon is dead! ”
The blue-robed elder frowned suddenly, could it be that this Chonghua and the white cocoon still have something to do with it? But listening to his previous words, it doesn't seem to be the case, as if he is just interested in the white cocoon.
"He's dead? Then take me to his body. ”
Chonghua didn't care about the life or death of the white cocoon, and only smiled slightly after listening to the words of the blue-robed elder, the blue-robed elder didn't understand what Chonghua meant, and hesitated a little.
The black-robed elder also saw his hesitation, so he said:
"Then you can take him there, I'll be here anyway."
The blue-robed elder glanced at the inside of the room, and then at Chonghua, who had a relaxed face, and finally had to agree, so under the leadership of Xu Yang and him, the three of them hurried to the basement where the white cocoon was now.
However, when they saw the empty basement, they could only stare at each other and were at a loss.
The blue-robed elder didn't expect that the formation he had worked so hard to get out had actually been destroyed to the ground, and then look at the simple wooden bed, who else was there on it?
Xu Yang was also in a cold sweat, but he didn't expect that the white cocoon had recovered to the point where he could escape like this. He didn't dare to confess to the elder that he knew that the white cocoon was not dead, in case the elder blamed him, it would be bad.
"Yo, isn't this still alive and well, and still escaped?"
Chonghua's expression didn't change in the slightest, as if he had expected this to be the outcome. The blue-robed elder's face was very ugly, and he began to check around the room, but the more he checked, the more surprised he became, all the formations in the entire room had been destroyed, and even some of the very hidden ones had not been spared.
Chonghua seemed impatient, so he walked out alone, and Xu Yang didn't dare to stop him, so he had to follow behind.
……
"Whew."
Soon after Chonghua left, the red-robed elder let out a big sigh, it was obvious that he could put a lot of pressure on people just by standing here.
"Let's go on, they're still waiting down there."
At the request of the black-robed elder, Love and Mercy had already descended to the cave below and began to prepare the content of the ritual. The red-robed elder nodded, since the blue-robed elder had already temporarily separated Chonghua, then they had to take advantage of this opportunity to hurry up and hold the ceremony and get the weapon in their hands, otherwise maybe Chonghua would come to stop them when he came back.
Descending the stairs, the last two men finally stood at the door of the cave. Mercy and Pity were already wearing red sacrificial garments and standing at the entrance to the cave.
"Are you scared?"
Like a kind elder, the black-robed elder touched the heads of the two girls. Love and pity blushed at the same time, and then shook their heads. They had already realized the importance of this matter under the education of the two elders, of course, they didn't really know what was going to happen next, and they didn't know what would happen to them.
But they are also happy to think that they can do their part to protect the village. They still have a strong affection for the village, and they have a good relationship with the other villagers in the village, so they are very concerned about protecting them.
"It's good not to be afraid."
The black-robed elder nodded, then glanced at the red-robed elder, who immediately stepped forward and led the two girls into the cave.
In the cave, just like what Xu Yang had seen before, there was something that didn't know what the specific mentality was, but it exuded huge energy.
At this moment, bamboo sticks have been inserted around this thing, and there are many sacrificial utensils on the periphery, and in the center is a desk.
The red-robed elder picked up two knives from the table and handed them to Mercy and Mercy respectively. They looked at each other, gritted their teeth, slashed their index fingers with the dagger, and drew a pattern on the desk.
The moment the blood touched the table, it seemed to be absorbed, leaving only a dark red trace. After finishing the drawing, both of them were already sweating profusely, and their faces were a little pale.
However, they quickly withdrew their hands, ignoring the bleeding wounds, and began to stand on both sides as they had learned, reciting incantations and waving their hands.
As if awakened by a spell, the black qi around the weapon began to writhe unnaturally, and finally stretched out violently, entangled in love and pity.
The two girls were shocked, but when they saw the faces of the two elders as usual, they thought that this was probably a normal phenomenon, so they didn't stop the movements in their hands and the words in their mouths.
The black qi wrapped more and more around them, and finally directly covered the lower half of the two people's bodies. Although the expressions of the two elders were still normal, they still couldn't stop being scared in their hearts.
Just as they were frightened and continued their rituals, footsteps suddenly sounded on the steps behind the black-robed elder, and he turned his head and stared closely at the staircase, so he saw the white callus running down in a hurry.
"Love!"
Seeing that the two of them were half wrapped in black qi, Bai Cocoon was shocked and hurriedly wanted to rush over to rescue them, but the black-robed elder suddenly blocked in front of him.
The white cocoon subconsciously stopped, looked at the guy in the black robe, and suddenly thought of the matter of the great elder recorded in the notebook. Looking over the black-robed elder, he saw that Mercy and Pity continued to chant incantations.
"I'm surprised that you're not dead, and you're still here, but if you're going to stop me from protecting this village, I'm not going to show mercy!"
"Protect the village? Are you kidding me? ”
The black-robed elder thought that the white cocoon didn't know anything, and thought that it would be good to use these lies to fool around. White Cocoon was so angry with his words that he almost laughed, and pointed to the love and pity that was gradually being swallowed up and said:
"With their lives, to save this village?"
There was silence throughout the cave, except for love and pity continuing to chant incantations. After the black-robed elder digested the meaning of the white cocoon's words, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Seeing that he was silent, White Cocoon didn't want to say anything more to him, thinking that he would quickly bypass him and save his love and pity.
"If you want them to die in vain, just go ahead."
The words of the black-robed elder suddenly made the white cocoon stunned in place. He frowned, turned his head, looked in the direction of the black-robed elder and asked:
"What do you mean?"
"When they complete the ritual, they will exchange their lives for the village, and if you stop them at this time, it will be equivalent to killing them and making them the culprits in the destruction of the village."
"What?"
The white cocoon felt that the black-robed elder was alarmist, but he still stopped moving. Glancing at the direction of mercy, a large part of them was still not engulfed by the black gas.
"Halfway through the ceremony, I'll admit that they're going to die in the end, but what else can you do by this time? If you forcibly interrupt the ritual, there will be backlash, and you should know that. ”
"So what?"
Cocoon knew about the backlash, of course, but he still had to stop the ritual, and he felt he had what it took to keep them alive.
The black-robed elder also understood the meaning of the white cocoon, so he continued:
"How about they decide for themselves?"
"No kidding, are they adults?"
"If you have to use the outside world, their guardians have already agreed!"
Bai Cocoon couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't expect the black-robed elder to say such a thing, and in this way, he seemed to know quite a bit about the things outside?
"I don't have time to talk to you!"
He felt that no matter what he said, he would not be able to persuade the black-robed elder to give up, so he directly planned to use force. A fireball suddenly appeared beside him, and then flew towards the black-robed elder.
The black-robed elder seemed a little surprised, but he still reacted in time and caught the fireball with his hand. The fireball was extinguished in his hand, but he felt as if something was leaking out of his body.
N was surprised to notice that the white cocoon had actually come to the side of the mercy, and the red-robed elder was about to stop him. The white cocoon didn't hesitate at all, and a fireball smashed up, and the red-robed elder didn't dare to take it hard, so he had to dodge it.
White Cocoon took advantage of this opportunity to grab Mercy's still free hand and wanted to pull her out, but it seemed that because of the black gas in her lower body, Mercy was firmly fixed in place.
Mercy had a panicked expression on her face, but she didn't dare to stop the spell in her mouth, so Cocoon didn't know what Mercy's thoughts were.
But no matter what, he still wants to save Mercy from the sea of suffering, this is not only his agreement with Xidie, but also his own thoughts. So he began to recite the incantation, using the magic that controlled the energy around him to control the black qi that had blocked his pity.
However, what he didn't expect was that the black qi was not under his control, but collapsed all at once, and emitted a wave of energy to the surroundings. And mercy was free all at once. The white cocoon didn't have time to regain his strength, so the two of them fell backwards to the ground together.
The faces of the black-robed elder and the red-robed elder were very ugly, the red-robed elder didn't have time to stop the white cocoon, and the black-robed elder couldn't react in time because of the white cocoon's fireball.
However, in addition to being depressed, the black-robed elder found that the pity that was still continuing the ritual on the side did not seem quite right. The first thing the white cocoon noticed after she got up from the ground was also a pity situation.
I saw that the black qi that was originally just wrapped in the lower body of pity had completely wrapped up the pity at this time, and only half of the head was still outside. She had stopped the spell in her mouth by this time, but the black qi was still spreading, and it soon engulfed her.
"You're a catastrophe!"
Seeing that the black-robed elder was still thinking about taking pity on the other side, the black-robed elder finally couldn't help it and roared out loudly.
The white cocoon subconsciously turned his head and looked at the black-robed elder, his face was also very unsightly.
"You still say I'm a scourge, who is responsible for this situation?"
"Hmph, do you think it's my fault? Then you have the ability to stop Chonghua! ”
"Chonghua?"
Cocoon blinked, she didn't expect to hear the name here.
"You mean, the man who snatched the stone from the cemetery is Chonghua?"
A sense of fear spread all over the body at once, according to what Xu Yang said, it should be Zhong Tianze who appeared in the cemetery at that time! Because of that bell, the white cocoon has never been heard of anywhere else.
"Now that he has obtained the Holy Stone, now only mercy and pity can save this village, and you still want to stop me!"
"Brother......
Not only the black-robed elder, but even Mercy opened his mouth to speak at this moment, and the white cocoon didn't know what she wanted to say, so he turned his head to look at her.
"I want to save this village too!"
