Yan Yang (20)
The young man didn't seem to feel the pain, and kept smiling at Emperor Chu's gloomy eyes.
"What's your relationship with those people?" Emperor Chu asked fiercely, holding the young man's hand with greater strength.
The young man felt the pain coming from his wrist, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became bigger and bigger, only to see him slowly approaching Emperor Chu's ear, and said jokingly: "What do I have to tell you?"
"Let's stop here," Yan Yang said, the team was about to go away, they were still in a stalemate here, whether to check or not.
"Little girl, then I'll listen to you." The young man pushed back slightly, and Emperor Chu couldn't help but relax his hand. The gray wolf saw that the master and the man each took a step back, and also gave up roaring at Emperor Chu, and silently returned to the young man.
"Who are you?" Yan Yang looked at the young man and asked his doubts.
"My name is Zuo Case," the boy laughed, "and I'm the son of the leader of the group." ”
Chu Huang and Yan Yang subconsciously made a defensive posture, and the young man saw that the two of them began to get nervous, and smiled slightly: "I am not in the same group as those people just now. ”
"You are the son of their leader, why are you not in their group?" Emperor Chu sneered.
Left Bank was not annoyed, but his smile deepened, "If I was with them, why did I save you just now?" ”
At this point, Yan Yang and Emperor Chu slowly believed the young man's words, if he really had ill will towards them, there was no need to save them.
"What are they going to do?" Yan Yang continued to ask.
"They," Left Bank's face grew solemn, and finally he slowly said a few words: "They are going to sacrifice." ”
"Sacrifice?" Emperor Chu silently recited, sacrificing He had heard of pigs, sheep and cattle being sacrificed, but they were obviously taking people's corpses to sacrifice.
Yan Yang wanted to ask something, but Emperor Chu tightened her hand, meaning not to ask any more.
"Can you take us to the place of sacrifice?" Emperor Chu looked at the young man in front of him and asked in a deep voice.
It was obvious that Zuo An didn't want to talk to Emperor Chu, and his eyes looked at Yan Yang. Yan Yang saw the young man's blazing gaze, and also saw the hint from the Chu Emperor.
"Can you take us to the place of sacrifice," Yan Yang asked after a moment of silence.
"Of course you can, but there is one condition." Left Bank smiled in response.
"On what terms?" Emperor Chu frowned and asked unhappily.
"I want her to marry me." Left Bank pointed at Yan Yang and said with a smile.
"Impossible." Emperor Chu looked indifferently at the young man who was half a body younger than him, just this little child, and he still wanted to marry her.
How could Zuo An take Emperor Chu's words to heart, he was going to marry Yan Yang and not Emperor Chu Yan Yang couldn't believe that Zuo An actually made this request, and he looked seven or eight years older than this young man.
Seeing that Yan Yang didn't answer him, Zuo An was not annoyed, and took the lead in putting aside the question, "Let's go, let's go to the place of sacrifice." ”
Yan Yang breathed a sigh of relief, sure enough, he was joking. Emperor Chu didn't think so, he saw the interest in the eyes of the left bank looking at Yan Yang, he really wanted Yan Yang. As soon as he thought of this, Emperor Chu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart inexplicably.
Emperor Chu himself is a person who is not good at words, he was originally behind the left bank far beyond Yan Yang, and gradually Yan Yang also caught up with him, but he has been releasing cold air, surrounded by low air pressure, and his brows are also tightly locked.
Yan Yang touched his nose and silently distanced himself from Emperor Chu, who knew that Emperor Chu noticed Yan Yang's small movements and deliberately walked closer to her.
Yan Yang looked at Emperor Chu with a dark cloud on his face, where did she provoke him?
Left Bank Ye obviously noticed Emperor Chu's displeased look, and without thinking too much, he also guessed something, and looked at Emperor Chu's eyes full of provocation.
When Emperor Chu saw the provocative eyes of the left bank, he was even more displeased. Yan Yang looked at Emperor Chu, who was basically black-faced, and silently narrowed his sense of existence.
The three of them maintained this delicate atmosphere and kept moving forward. Yan Yang, who was between these two people, was also broken in his heart.
"Here we are," said the Left Bank.
Yan Yang looked at his position seriously, the three of them stood on a hillside, and there was a big river flowing below, and the group of people who had just seen it on the flat ground next to him put down the bag and bowed a few times to the river and the mountain in front of them.
They stood up again and danced strangely, saying something that neither Chu Huang nor Yan Yang could understand.
At the end of the dance, the boss of the team took out a bell from his bosom, and the others took a bamboo raft out of nowhere, only to see him hang the bell on the side of the bamboo raft. The others untied the bags and took the contents out.
Yan Yang covered his mouth, and sure enough, it was a human corpse. They laid the corpses neatly on the ground, straightened their faces, and laid them on the raft, as if several people were asleep on the raft. They hung a few lanterns around the raft and pushed the raft into the river, which carried the raft into the mountains in the distance. The group fell to their knees again, and began to dance strangely in a language they did not understand. As the raft flowed, the light on it became fainter and fainter, and finally there was only a faint starlight left.
"What are they talking about?" Emperor Chu looked at the strange dance of those people, and said some inexplicable words in his mouth, turned to the left bank beside him and asked.
"It's just a few words of blessing," Zuo An was preoccupied, and it was obvious that there was something he hadn't told the Chu Emperor.
Emperor Chu didn't say anything more, after all, even if he asked again, he couldn't ask anything.
It didn't take long for the men's sacrifice to seem to be over, and they made a meaningful worship to the mountains in the distance. Then he stood up, grabbed his things and prepared to go back.
The place where Yan Yang and the three of them stood was in an open area, and there were no trees to block them, as long as those people walked a few steps up, they could be found. The left bank gave a look to Yan Yang and Emperor Chu, and several people got up and moved silently in the direction of the woods.
I don't know who stepped on something, but I heard a "click", and the group of people below noticed something unusual on the hillside above, and ran up quickly.
Yan Yang and the three of them also knew that it was not appropriate to stay for a long time at this moment, so they quickly ran towards the dense woods. The three of them fled in a hurry in the woods, and the leader of the team saw the footprints of the three people who were trampled out of the grass on the ground, and shouted to the brothers behind him with a haze in his eyes: "Chase!" ”
Yan Yang and several people ran together, and they made a lot of noise. And those people were separated to arrest people, and at the same time they had come to this woods so many times and were far more familiar with it than on the left bank.
"Obediently tie your hands and arrest it," a man pointed at Emperor Chu with a big knife, and glanced at the left bank next to Yan Yang, and let go of the weapon in his hand with a slight startle, "Holy Son, why are you with these people?"
Seeing this, Emperor Chu quickly came to the man's side, clasped his hand with his backhand, and subdued the man to the ground.
"Don't move!" A large group of people with weapons appeared around them, looking at Emperor Chu on the ground vigilantly, and then at Yan Yang and them, it was obvious that their expressions changed slightly when they saw the left bank, but it was the boss of the team who did not show any surprise when he saw the left bank, it was obvious that he had long known that the left bank was following him.
They pressed Yan Yang and the three of them and walked towards the deep mountains over there, surrounded by jungles and uninhabited by people. Neither Yan Yang nor Emperor Chu knew where they were going to take them. Only the left bank, which was escorted at the rear, was unhurried and did not have the slightest fear.
They were familiar with walking among those dense jungles, I don't know how long they walked, Yan Yang saw a small village located between the mountains, and subconsciously looked at Emperor Chu, Emperor Chu was also stunned, he checked the files in southern Hunan and didn't see anyone who moved to live in this deep mountain.
Those people pressed Chu Huang and the others through the winding mountain road, and at each intersection they got closer and closer to the village.
When they finally arrived, they stood at the gate of the village, and there was no name written on it, just a large plaque with no inscription.
Most villages have their family name written on it, but this is not the case. What is even more strange is that the villagers, when they see outsiders, are full of disgust and fear.
Yan Yang saw the villagers who saw them divert their route, and their eyes were full of malice when they looked at them.
The leader of the team who walked in front turned a blind eye, escorted them to the deepest part of the village, and the more they got to the village, the more desolate they became, I don't know if it was an illusion, and those villagers seemed to be full of fear in this.
Emperor Chu and Yan Yang were rudely thrown into a big room by them, and they closed the door. As for the left bank, he was pressed to other places.
Yan Yang and Chu Huang looked at the rope tied tightly on their bodies and glanced at each other.
"We'll untie this back to back," Emperor Chu said to Yan Yang, "and we'll get out later." ”
Yan Yang nodded, and the two were back to back, untying the ropes behind each other, but the ideal was very plump and the reality was skinny. The rope behind them was tied in a dead knot, and no matter how hard they tried with each other, they couldn't untie the rope behind them.
Gradually, Yan Yang began to give up, and the rope behind him couldn't be untied at all, and Emperor Chu also noticed that the rope couldn't be untied. The two remained silent back to back.
Gradually, the sunlight that came through the gaps in the house slowly faded, and the cold moonlight shone on the two men through the shabby windows. Those who escorted them over seemed to have forgotten them, Yan Yang fell asleep hungry, and Emperor Chu closed his eyes as he looked at the cold moonlight. The two of them leaned together quietly.
But it didn't last long, Chu Huang heard the sound of weeds being trampled on outside, opened his sharp eyes, and he slowly pushed Yan Yang behind him, Yan Yang was pushed by him to wake up from his sleep, with a dazed look in his eyes that had just woken up, and there was a little displeasure in it. Emperor Chu motioned to her with his eyes and listened to the voices outside. Yan Yang felt strange, but he still listened carefully to the sound outside.
There was the sound of trees being trampled on closer and closer outside, Yan Yang and Chu Huang glanced at each other, and anyone could see the stunned in each other's eyes.
So the two of them slowly moved to the window, and through the faint moonlight, they saw a white figure wandering in the woods not far away.
Yan Yang had never heard of ghosts with his own eyes since he was a child, but the speed at which the white shadow was floating was definitely not the speed of an ordinary person, so that thing was, Yan Yang was stunned and seemed to think of something bad. The white shadow was very sensitive, and felt as if something was peeping at it, and slowly got closer and closer to the room where they were, Yan Yang was held by Emperor Chu and hid in the corner where the window could not be seen, the white shadow poked his head into the dilapidated window, and took a few breaths fiercely.
Yan Yang saw that thing's long hair, long nails, and that miserable white face, it was definitely not a person.
Suddenly, it seemed to smell what it liked and grinned, and Yan Yang saw its bloody teeth. It ran in the same direction that attracted it.
