077 Misfortune (I)
She jumped into the stream and ran towards the moonlit woods ahead.
She could hear footsteps behind her, and it was eleven Ezo people walking in the opposite direction from her. They retreated swiftly with their fainted companions, heading for the rugged mountain road.
Only in this way can they avoid being controlled by the power of the medicine.
Facing the mountain wind, she landed in the stream, ran through the short woods, and jumped into the stream again.
She continued towards the Moonlight Grove.
Her face was full of water, enough to keep her awake on the run.
What's more, the students have already begun to destroy the altar, of course, they are taking the antidote in advance, but they also have to douse the smoke medicine with water to prevent the antidote from failing.
Most importantly, they wanted to deprive the living and colonizing gods of Fuso of such offerings to the gods.
She listened to the direction from which the beast's drums came along the way, silently calculating the distance and time.
Because of the delay in the quarrel just now, they couldn't go directly to Zhuma Temple as she envisioned, and they would inevitably be met by Shengfan.
Hopefully, Stoneno will not lose his most powerful nephew.
Otherwise, he would have cried again.
It was precisely because she got the news and judged that he was training this nephew to be the next head that she would accept the escort of the back slave.
After being well prepared, she was willing to venture into the mountains to walk with the Ezo people this time, because in her experience, there was nothing easier to cultivate a tacit understanding between her and the Ezo warriors than sharing adversity.
Just like her and Huang Qilang.
Because she doesn't know either. How long did his uncle Ji Tongnu live.
Even if the students are learning the life of the Song people, their various habits that are prone to illness are not easy to change, and it will take at least several generations to extend their lifespan.
Not to mention. They are about to face the civil strife of the Fusang people, and of course they also need to protect Tangfang.
As a last resort, it is impossible for 30,000 Fang residents to abandon Tang Fang and move back to the Great Song Dynasty. If this is the case, it is equivalent to ten years of work being wasted.
So, even she was ready.
After being reborn in this life, she recalls death and life without warning. Faced with a completely insecure life in a foreign land, she had the same thoughts as Stonenu when she was ten years old:
Abruptly end the life of this life. It's something that can happen at any time.
Even in her previous life, she had a thought in her heart:
When she felt that it wanted to change, it didn't necessarily say hello to her in advance. It will only be like Xiao Ruiniang's prank, suddenly jumping out of the house when she is not looking. Expose its face to her.
Therefore, she has at least five successors, including her two younger brothers.
Be prepared.
She finally stepped into the moonlit woods. Sure enough, no one came to stop her.
There are also no unclothed Fuso men and women in the marginal areas.
She bent over and walked among the pale golden thatch.
It was because of this half-human-tall soft thatch that she was able to enter the forest lightly ten years ago, and she was lucky enough to run around without being caught right away.
It's just that even she and Stonenu didn't expect that the people of Fuso would put the sacrificial site back to the old sacrificial ground in Beishan Road. And the students actually discovered the truth so quickly.
Because of the sound of firearms. As a last resort, they would never have dared to approach the North Mountain Road.
The current situation is really asking for trouble for her......
……
Lou Yun, who is as troubled as her. Standing on the edge of the moonlit woods filled with smoke and medicine, he took a sip of the water from the water hyacinth.
Listening to the roar of the tiger and the howl of the wolf raised by the drums of the beasts on all sides, he sighed.
Soon a wild beast will be frightened and will scurry.
Of course, they will be killed by the various Shengfan tribesmen who have gathered, and then hide far away and dare not enter the forest. But before that, they have to give him some trouble when he is alone.
Although he felt that the amount of water in the water hyacinth was not much, it might not be enough to keep him awake all the time. Not enough to get him out of this wood.
But he looked up at the night kite fire in the direction of Zhuma Temple.
He knew that the landlady must have done something he didn't expect.
Maybe she hadn't retreated into the Inner Warehouse at all, but as he had speculated. Retreated directly into the Zhuma Temple, which could best shelter her.
He needs to hurry.
Lou Yun carried the water hyacinth, faced the mesmerizing smoke, and walked into the moonlight forest step by step.
She also walked in the shadows of the edge of the moonlit woods, continuing to sneak.
In her direction, she could easily avoid the intruding beasts.
Countless men and women passed her in the smoke, some of them had put on their messy clothes, and some were still confused, still reveling in the spirit of worship.
She knew that the Fuso people did not use tobacco medicine during the sacrifice of the gods because the man could not do it.
They had been cultivating in the mountains for a long time, and they had been constantly educated by the monks of Zhuma Temple, and after all, the people of Fuso could not take this kind of group marriage ceremony for granted, just like the uncivilized and semi-civilized Ezo people.
They need to look for some primal instincts from ancient times in the smoke medicine.
They wanted to be closer to the gods.
There were a few loud sounds, and the remnants of blood were splattered.
The Fusang men and women, who were confused and couldn't tell the situation, fell five or six in a blink of an eye, and they died under the arrows of revenge of the living fans.
The cries of anger come and go, the desire to survive and the urge to hate, and the light yì triumphs over the desire = hope between men and women.
In the midst of the fighting, she entered at a very good time.
The Shofan have already begun to attack the central altar.
I don't know if the Fuso people immediately decided to extinguish the tobacco medicine and prepare for war, or if the Shengfan people brought water hyacinth with them in order to facilitate the attack, and they doused the tobacco medicine.
For a moment, the woods were filled with smoke, and it was impossible to see the nearby figures.
Although this wet smoke still has an aphrodisiac effect, it is just right to give her a temporary security guarantee.
The potion had diminished, and instead of holding her breath, she tried to inhale deeply—she wanted to smell the scent of water in the air. Look for the small dark river that flows through the Moonlit Grove.
It was the secret path she was lucky to find when she fled in panic.
As she went deeper, she walked past one small altar after another. She smelled the water in the woods, and it gradually matched the one she remembered when she was ten years old......
In an instant, she lifted her crossbow and fired two arrows in a row.
The figures shot by the crossbow arrows were two naked-naked men who had lunged at her in the dark. She no longer hid her figure, and began to run in the direction of the water source in her memory.
After all, she was also drugged with cigarettes, and she didn't know how long she could last.
I still remember that year I accidentally broke into the moonlight forest. She was so frightened that she fled back and hid in the temple slave dormitory.
For several days, she did not dare to take one more step. Therefore, Master Kong Ming did not see her come to the Buddha Zhai to copy Chinese characters and scriptures for him. There is no figure of her sneaking into the Buddha Zhai and half-begging and half-secretly asking him for refreshments.
He was worried that she would be bullied, so he sent two waiters to look for her......
His boy was a smart and good-looking poor child in the village of Fuso.
They took her to the Buddha's fast. Overheard her outside the door, Ai Ai told the old monk Kong Ming the reason:
When she went to collect grain, she accidentally saw a tiger in the barren forest by the stream, and she was very scared.
It's all nonsense, of course.
When she came out, they gave her two village antidotes.
At that time, she knew that if she hadn't been lucky, the mountain people had not completely burned the twelve altars when she entered the forest, and she might have really met with something big when she was ten years old.
And Ji's mother also heard her talk about this incident many years later.
At that time, the antidote she had been carrying with her for ten years had become moldy and could no longer be eaten. She taught her how to make the recipe for this antidote:
In fact, it is also a part of that tobacco herb.
It is the grass root that has an aphrodisiac effect, and the branches and leaves that have an aphrodisiac effect.
If the root of the cigarette is burned too thickly by the fire, the effect of the medicine is too strong. When you get rid of it, you just need to eat a few more leaves and add water.
For example, the Ezo people occasionally smell a trace outside the woods, and they only need to jump into the water to get rid of most of it.
The thatch was bloody, the wounded were increasing, and the corpses were exposed from time to time, and she could hear the sound of slashing arrows from time to time.
Under the threat of death, the men and women who are still under the control of the drug have long been extinct.
By woods and thatch. As long as she was careful to avoid the area of the central altar, it would not be difficult to hide herself.
Suddenly. She stopped, straightened up, and looked around.
There was no figure nearby, and after she woke up in doubt, she didn't understand what she was looking at when she stood and looked around.
She frowned and thought about the time for three breaths, and finally understood:
She had been in the forest for too long, and she began to hallucinate under the influence of cigarettes.
She instinctively searched for a male nearby.
She untied the beast's coat, which had been soaked in the stream outside the woods, and pressed it against her face, the moisture making her feel much better.
The linen clothes and hemp pants she wore were all very simple hand-knitted ramie original clothes, and they were also common clothes for students, almost airtight, so she deliberately made them cut into a round open collar that exposed her neck.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a layer of modern underwear she made herself, it would be too rough and prickly to wear.
And the animal skin skirt is more important to prevent arrows and insects, rather than to cover shame.
She wrung out a handful of water from her animal skin skirt and poured it on her face, and the water droplets dripped into her mouth, relieving the anxiety in her body.
- She should move on, instead of looking around for the opposite sex in the hallucination.
Since it was nothing to do, her route avoided the Central Great Altar as a matter of course.
That's where the students attack the most. It is also the most strongly guarded place for the Fuso mountain people, and it is also the direction of Zhuma Temple.
But from the little dark river she knows, she can also go to Zhuma Temple very quickly.
So, of course, she doesn't care about how the students are doing.
And Lou Yun, who was also at stake, walked carefully in the woods, and after a few twists and turns, he almost chose a similar path to her. He avoided the Ikuban and Fuso people, and he did his best to avoid the beasts that broke in.
Obviously he had already stepped into no man's land, but he suddenly heard a soft porphy sound from more than ten steps away.
He stopped in surprise.
By the moonlight, he saw the figure of a woman in Mai behind the thatch.
He, like her, had already hallucinated three or four times in the thin damp mist smoke, and now he saw the fantasy of the opposite sex again, so he didn't make any moves right away.
He just raised the snatched water hyacinth with one hand and poured out the last few sips of water to drink it all.
He swallowed another mouthful of saliva to make himself more conscious.
After making sure that the woman's figure was not a hallucination of cigarette medicine, he followed the sound to find it.
At this time, there are also lonely and neatly dressed raw women, after all, it is very strange.
Just now, along the way, in addition to the Fusang people, he also saw five or six pairs of men and women who were carnivaling in the secret place.
According to the weapons thrown aside, it seems that the carnival object of the Shengban warriors should be the relatively rare women who are good at fighting. They may have been the first wave of warriors to attack the sacrificial ground, accidentally hit by the smoke and did not have time to relieve it.
And they may have been one of the group companions they once met.
So, it was easy for them to hit it off and decide to find a place to solve it on the spot.
This time, the warriors really poured out, and women were no exception.
As for them temporarily fleeing the battle without self-control, Lou Yun knew that they must have no psychological pressure.
After all, this is also one of the ways to humiliate alien gods. They were brave warriors, and he and she still continued to fight.
When he finally got closer and saw the woman clearly, and even more clearly saw that she was actually alive and hot, and her soaked linen clothes collapsed on her body, Ji Qingchen was pouting her hips and sticking her head into the small mud pit of rubble. (To be continued) R655
