It's just that Ren is in the town guard mansion at this time, so it's inconvenient to say much. I kept this matter in my heart, and wanted to wait until I got out of the door.

Captain Li didn't shirk when he heard this, got up and hugged his fists and said, "Without further ado, then my subordinates will go and retire first." With that, he beckoned to the three of them, turned and walked towards the gate.

The town guard coughed lightly at this time, "Captain Li, don't be in a hurry to leave, I haven't finished my words yet." ”

Huang Wanli and the others looked at Captain Li at this time, obviously sensing that he was a little displeased, but when they turned around, they changed their respectful appearance, clasped their fists and asked, "What else does Lord Zhenshou have to order?" ”

"It's a long way to go, a few of you will go to the backyard stable to get a few horses, hurry up, I'm afraid it's too late, there will be some mess, that's not good." The town guard suddenly smiled, looking sympathetic to his subordinates. But in Huang Wanli's view, this is clearly a knife hidden in a smile and ill intentions.

After speaking, the town guard waved his hand to the man who led the way just now, "Criminal's family, take them there." After saying that, he picked up the teacup again and put it under his nose, as if enjoying the taste.

The man who was called the torture butler showed a harmless smile and led everyone out. The four of them hurried to follow, came to the stable, picked out a few horses that were not good or bad, and hurried on the road. Huang Wanli walked at the end, but he felt a thorn in his back, and Captain Li beside him reminded softly, "Don't look behind." ”

After walking far away, Captain Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "This old fox, I don't know what the hell you want to fight?" ”

"But this person doesn't deal with our cavalry general?" Chen Asan looked like he knew everything and hurriedly responded. Huang Wanli glanced at him angrily, and said sarcastically in his heart, "I have to shoot any sycophant, and I'm not afraid of slapping the horse's leg." ”

I didn't think that Captain Li didn't scold, and after nodding indifferently, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

This made Huang Wanli angry enough, and hurriedly asked: "Lord Captain, then why don't we just act if we don't obey orders?" Isn't it the military's work to grovel like this? ”

"Why wouldn't I? This is something that shouldn't be in my hands, so I have to urgently repair the book. If this is known to the general, how would it be good? Captain Li seemed to be a little hesitant, knowing that he couldn't do it, but he was a little helpless.

"Relieved, at that time, our brothers will carry it for you. Right? Chen Asan said and squeezed Cheng Gong and Huang Wanli with his elbow, and the former seemed to react, and even claimed that it was. The latter, however, was a little angry, and squeezed the horse's belly so hard that the horse jumped high with its front hooves.

Captain Li seemed to have figured out something, and suddenly raised his hand and raised his whip, "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided." Find out and go. ”

As everyone knows, at this time, in the town guard mansion, the town guard has already stood up from his position, and his face is a little more dizzy, "Criminal officer's family, are they leaving?" ”

"Lord Hui, I've been out of the city for a while. About a stick of incense, it should have arrived. The criminal butler bowed and said with a blank face.

Lord Town Shou sneered, as if he had thought of something interesting, "Today's Menglan Festival is cheap for them." Just wait for the old boy to come back, and he has to tell me about it. Only, can he come back? If you come back, it's already in my hand only, hahahahaha"

The torture butler did not continue to speak, but raised his head slightly, with a hint of fierceness in his eyes.

…………

Huang Wanli and the three of them followed Captain Li and rushed towards Qilipo quickly, but they didn't see anyone along the way, but the artemisia grass on both sides became deeper and deeper, faintly revealing a certain weirdness. After all, Captain Li had been on the battlefield for a long time, so he immediately tightened the reins, raised his hand to signal the three of them to stop, turned over and dismounted, lay on the ground, and listened with his ears.

As he heard this, Captain Li's face changed greatly, and his hands were still faintly trembling. The three of them were a little puzzled, so they stepped forward and asked, "But what went wrong?" ”

Captain Li didn't speak for a long time, and Huang Wanli also learned from Captain Li to listen to it, only to hear a rumbling sound not far away, as if someone was gathering here. When he got up, Captain Li seemed to stabilize his mind, and then said with a calm face: "I didn't expect that this town guard is so vicious, he wants to kill me!" ”

"Why?" Huang Wanli, who was also listening, asked with some confusion.

Captain Li didn't care about the horse, dragged the three of them, and went to the artemisia grass on the side, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual around, he whispered: "I remember what I said just now, today is the Menglan Festival?" ”

"yes, but what does that mean?" Chen Asan was a little impatient, as if he wanted to go to Qilipo to see clearly.

Captain Li suddenly raised his hand and gave Chen Asan a big mouth, which made him dizzy and almost fell to the ground. Seeing that Captain Li was so angry, the three of them didn't dare to continue to smile, and they all quieted down, waiting to listen, the so-called "next".

Captain Li glanced around for a while, not knowing what he was trying to see. After confirming that there was nothing unusual around him, he continued: "You three stunned young people know a fart, and the town guard wants to trick us and others into coming here to be living sacrifices for those people. ”

This sentence scared the three of them enough, at this time, Huang Wanli and Chen Asan were a little trembling, but Cheng Gong pressed his hand on the handle of the knife, looking eager to try.

Captain Li pulled Cheng Gong closer and said angrily, "Do you want to kill us?" ”

But Cheng Gong didn't care about it, and seemed to go out to fight to the death with the group of people not far away. Huang Wanli and Chen Asan tried their best to suppress Cheng Gong, but they were a little struggling. When the three of them were entangled again, Captain Li said a little dejectedly: "I should have thought of it a long time ago, Cheng Gong, your hometown used to believe in Jialan Temple?" ”

Hearing the words "Jialan Temple", Cheng Gong suddenly softened, knelt down in front of Captain Li and cried bitterly. It's just that the voice is suppressed, for some reason. This change startled Huang Wanli and Chen Asan, and both of them secretly said in their hearts: "What kind of magic power does this Jialan Temple have, which can make people cry when they hear it?" ”

Captain Li ignored the surprised gazes of the two, just helped Cheng Gong up, and said indifferently: "It's a pity that they were all destroyed in the hands of Penglai Xianshan." Now, this demonic outer path has appeared here, and I want to get rid of it as soon as possible. But the four of us are invincible. ”

"Even if you are defeated, you have to fight, if you can fight hard, my Aya and A-Niang, as well as the presiding master of the temple, will not ......" Cheng Gong said here, but his eyes were red from bloodshot, and his hands were trembling.

"I just didn't expect that this person from Penglai Immortal Mountain had already harmed here, I didn't expect it to come so quickly......" Captain Li was a little indifferent, and didn't seem to be ready yet.

"Isn't the Menglan Festival their unique festival? You've thought about it for a long time, but you just don't want to admit it. If so, then when the cavalry general returned, this place had already fallen into the hands of the town guards. Yes and no? Although Cheng Gong suppressed his voice, he was still so hysterical, and he couldn't control his emotions.

Huang Wanli and Chen Asan were stunned when they heard this, but they didn't know what to say. But after all, the two of them were young and vigorous, thinking that the four of them were all from the army, how could they be frightened by a group of people, so they said arrogantly: "Let's go with you." As he spoke, he hugged Cheng Gong's shoulders and cheered him on.

Captain Li was so excited by these two people that he seemed to have made up his mind. Looking at the three of them, he said, "Do what you are told, don't act rashly, understand?" As he spoke, he pulled out his waist hanging knife, began to drip the artemisia grass, and walked forward.

At this time, it was still early tomorrow, but I felt that the top of my head was gray, and I looked like I was going to go into the night. The three of them looked up unconsciously, and they all felt a pang in their hearts.

When Captain Li raised his hand and clenched his fist, the three of them immediately stopped, looked forward through the artemisia grass, and saw twelve naked men and women tied up on the twelve pillars. Beside them stood a man in white with a wooden box in his hand.

Captain Li leaned his hand forward and tried the three of them to follow. As they continued to move forward, the scene in front of them became clearer and clearer.

In this battle, there was a person standing with his back to them, and it was the horse halberd in the mouth of the town guard just now. At this time, he was also dressed in white armor, and he had words in his mouth, but he didn't know what he was saying. With a heavy clapping of his hands, the twelve men in white walked up to the twenty bound men and lit an ancient oil lamp at their feet.

Although they were in the wilderness at this time, the four of them clearly smelled a sweet smell, which was so fascinating. At this time, the twelve people on the column also fell into a psychedelic expression, revealing an intoxicated expression.

And the twelve men in white also pulled out their knives at this time and began to cut on the twelve naked people. But the twelve people were completely unaware, but showed a faint smile, as if they were extremely intoxicated.

This scene made the three people except Cheng Gong stunned, in their cognition, there was absolutely no such evil art. If you don't see it with your own eyes, you won't believe it's true.

Cheng Gong's hand holding the horizontal knife trembled a little, and his body began to shake unconsciously, as if someone was behind him and wanted to lift him up and throw him out.

Captain Li motioned to everyone to wait for the opportunity, and after the twelve white-clothed men cut the people on the pillar into bloody people, they picked up the box next to the oil lamp, ready to carry out the next action. At this moment, Cheng Gong couldn't hold it back, suddenly shouted loudly, and rushed towards the horse halberd.

The other three were unexpected, but they couldn't let him go, so they rushed out. But the horse in front of the pillar did not perceive the danger, still closed his eyes, and finally recited an obscure incantation, and slapped his hand again.

The twelve men in white ignored them and continued to make their movements.

At the moment when Cheng Gong lifted the knife, a feather arrow broke through the air, impartially, hit Cheng Gong in the back of the heart, and shot Cheng Gong to the ground. At this time, Ma Zhiji opened his eyes and said slowly: "You are the sacrifice sent by Lord Zhenshou?" As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and dozens of crossbowmen came out of the surroundings and surrounded the four of them.

And the ritual in front of them continued......
