Sixty-four, close at hand

Rayson watched as Durant followed the group into a single-family villa at the far end of the plaza.

"What's that?" Rayson pointed to the villa and asked Becky Dao.

"It's the Master's room. Every time I came to the Holy Land, the Sect Master and the High Priest would stay there! I ...... too."

Lei Sen immediately blurted out, "Is Su Ling there too?" ”

"Su Ling?" Becky looked confused.

"Oh, it's your new saint." Lei Sen hurriedly explained, he was in too much of a hurry just now, and he forgot that Becky didn't know Su Ling's name at all.

"It should be there. Because, when I came to the Holy Land with the Sect Master, I also lived there......"

As she said this, there was a loneliness in Becky's eyes. It seems that without the position of the saintess, it is also a sad thing for this too naΓ―ve Becky, even if she keeps saying that she is loyal to the sun god, but she still inevitably feels a psychological gap for such a thing.

However, Rayson didn't care about this, and turned around and left here to find Su Ling. Seeing this, Becky hurriedly grabbed him.

"Where are you going? It was the place where the sect leader rested, and it was very heavily guarded, and ordinary people were not allowed to enter! ”

These words immediately woke up Rayson and made him pause. Knowing Su Ling's whereabouts made Rayson too excited for a while, and he almost couldn't help rushing over directly; But when I calm down and think about it, I don't know the situation in it yet, the more critical the moment, the more you can't be reckless, and you must be prepared for both.

First of all, you must go first to see what is going on inside before making the next step. As for Becky, let's keep it for now, maybe there will be other uses in the future.

After making up his mind, Rayson said to Becky: "You wait here quietly for me first, don't run around, don't let people find you." ”

Rayson was leaving, he was going to the villa to investigate the situation, but he definitely couldn't take Becky with him. This woman lacks a string in her brain, if she is allowed to follow her actions all the time, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not drag herself down and something will go wrong.

"Where are you going?" Becky was still uneasy.

"It's not important, the important thing is that if you run around and I don't see you when I come back, I won't introduce you to your friends and let them join you with you, and you won't be able to complete the task given to you by the sun god."

Listening to Rayson's slightly threatening words, and about the 'figure of the sun god', Becky's mind suddenly went blank, and he nodded again and again: "I won't go anywhere!" I'm waiting for you right here! ”

Rayson ignored her and walked away. After leaving the abandoned building, he walked past the outermost circle of the square and slowly sneaked to the back of the detached house.

Sure that there was no one around, Rayson observed the villa, climbed up to the second floor, and entered the villa through the only open window.

To his surprise, there was no one on the second floor of the villa.

Rayson was about to go down when a man in a black robe happened to walk in front of the stairs, and Rayson quickly shrank back again.

Thankfully, the man didn't spot Rayson and didn't go upstairs. He put the oil lamp in his hand on the table, took out a cigarette from under his black robe, opened the door of the villa and walked out. I guess I went out to smoke.

After the man went out, Rayson didn't hear any other movement on the first floor of the villa, and quickly slipped down.

After coming to the first floor, there is a downward entrance, and the entrance is very spacious. Rayson stood outside the entrance, and he could still feel the slight breeze coming from inside, obviously the space under this is not small, it should be an underground building similar to an air-raid shelter.

From the outside of this villa, you can't imagine that there is a hole in it. Rayson realized that he was still too anxious, and he didn't bother to say a few more words to Becky before he came, and learned about the environment in advance.

The person has come to this, Lei Sen can only continue to go deeper, pull the black robe on his body, Lei Sen walked lightly into the underground space.

There is no light source underneath, Rayson can only move forward in the dark, he secretly slandered himself, how can these guys who don't do good things like to go underground? He'd walked through several underground spaces from Devon City, but this one was the darkest and the biggest. In order to avoid being discovered, Rayson did not dare to take out the flashlight, so he could only take every step extremely carefully. Any underground space I've walked through before is as bright as heaven compared to this place.

After walking for a while, I finally saw some light in front of me, one coming from a room, and there was a slight noise.

Rayson leaned close to the wall, peeking slightly sideways from the outside. It was said to be a room, but it was more like a meeting place, and there were dozens of black-robed people in it, judging from the muzzles of their black robes, these people were also loaded with guns, and they were definitely not good at it.

A little higher, there was an old man in a wheelchair, most prominently dressed, dressed in a white robe, the hood of which was not covered, revealing his bald head and a wrinkled old face; The old man was sitting in a wheelchair with an oxygen cylinder and a medicine bottle for hanging needles, and the old man was inhaling oxygen and hanging needles, and from time to time he would gasp heavily, looking like he was about to lose his breath, as if he was out of those life-supporting equipment, his old life would be over in an instant.

Durant was standing not far away, separated by several black-robed men with guns, and he was still naked, covered in scars from Aretha's fabrication.

As a famous slave trader, Durant is also considered the number one villain, but here he is honestly like a grandson, and he doesn't even dare to look up at the old man.

The old man pulled down the oxygen mask on his face, and his voice was hoarse: "Durant, what's the matter with you?" Why did you come to me all of a sudden, and still do this? ”

Durant explained very politely: "I was doing business in Devon City two days ago, but I didn't expect an accident, lost a bunch of goods, and was robbed by a bitch and an unknown guy, fortunately I escaped smartly, and was saved by the sect leader, your people, otherwise I would have died in the desert even if I didn't die in the hands of that bitch." ”

This old man is clearly the leader of the Church of Saints. Listening to Durant's words, the old man's face became gloomy, and his voice became a little colder: "You lost the goods?" Is it the batch for me? ”

Durant hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, and said very quickly: "No, no, no!" Of course not, I keep all the goods for the sect master! Unaffected! ”

"That's good." The old man's face softened slightly, and then he said, "I am very satisfied with the goods you sent last time, and the effect of your medicine in controlling them is also very good." I hope your next batch of goods will be in better condition, and I will have additional rewards! ”

"Of course! Of course! You won't be disappointed! ”

Rayson kind of understood, this Durant would have had business dealings with the Saints. After escaping from Aretha, he met a member of the Saints' Congregation in the desert and was rescued, only to be lucky enough to save his life.

The old man put the mask on his face again, took two heavy breaths of oxygen, and then asked the black-robed man next to him, "How are the preparations for the festival?" ”

"It's all ready, according to the original plan, tomorrow can be held normally. The Sect Master doesn't have to worry. The black-robed man who spoke was very tall, although his body was also wrapped in a black robe, so he couldn't see clearly, but he was as tall as a wall, faintly exuding a dangerous aura.

"What about the new saint? Have you gotten a little better? The old man asked again.

"This ......" The tall black-robed man's voice became a little embarrassed, and it took a long time before he said: "Sect Master, don't worry, we all take good care of her now, and we will lock her up in the lowest floor, the room of the previous saint." What's more, with the thing you arranged on her, she will definitely not be able to run. ”

When Rayson heard this, he immediately came to his senses. At least he already knew that Su Ling was locked up at the bottom of the place.

"You have to watch and don't go wrong." After the old man finished speaking, he pursed his lips again, and said very dissatisfiedly: "The stomach of the previous saint is not angry, the old man has raised her for so many years, and he still hasn't given birth to a son and a half daughter, I hope this time, don't let me down." ”

It turned out that the real reason for Becky's exile was that he had never conceived because of the old man's 'purification' and gave birth to an heir. Thinking of the young and beautiful Becky, who was ruined by such a bad old man, Rayson couldn't help but feel nauseous, and then thought that he still wanted to attack Su Ling, and he became even more nameless.

"But speaking of which, I was surprised that you were able to find someone so similar to her."

Rayson, who has been eavesdropping, is puzzled at the moment, like her? Who is she?

The tall black-robed man respectfully explained to the old man: "The new saint was found by the old woman, and since the old woman's adopted child disappeared, she has not paid much attention to the affairs of our church, but she has done a good job in this matter. ”

"Is there any news of her now?"

The tall black-robed man shook his head: "Not yet, it is said that someone has seen her in Devon City, but someone was sent to look for her, and the team is also missing, and no new news has been sent back for the time being." ”

The old man pondered for a moment before he said, "Forget if she can't be found, she is not very important to our church now." ”

When Rayson heard this, he suddenly realized that the old woman they were talking about should be the old woman. The old woman left the Church of Saints without permission, and the fair-skinned boy was an adopted child by the old woman, not her own.

When he was in Devon City before, Rayson had heard that the fair-skinned boy happened to fall into Saito's hands when Saito was fighting with Lady Jane. In this way, he was in the hands of Madame Jane before. The old woman and Mrs. Jane have been in contact for a long time, could it be that Mrs. Jane caught the fair-skinned boy and let the old woman cooperate with her?

The old woman would rather lose her life and her child's life than dare to tell the truth about the live experiment under the warehouse, could it also be related to Mrs. Jane?

A series of doubts appeared in Rayson's mind, but they were quickly erased. These are not what he should care about now, he doesn't care, finding and rescuing Su Ling is what he has to do.

Rayson wasted no more time eavesdropping on their conversation and continued to walk into the darkness.

On the lower floor, Rayson passed another room without a door. There was no one to guard this place, so it didn't look like a place they would use to imprison Su Ling.

Rayson still didn't go in, poking his head out of the door to peek. There should be only one oil lamp in this room, not very bright, the room is facing the door of the position can see a small iron cage, the iron cage actually locked up an adult man, still hung in the iron cage, limbs are fixed in the corner of the iron cage, the mouth is sealed by a cloth, naked, the eyes are actually panicked.

The people in the iron cage also saw Rayson, and his eyes widened and he made a 'hmm, hmm' sound, as if he wanted to ask for help. But at this moment, Lei Sen was not in the mood to be a living bodhisattva who rescued the suffering, so he could only act as if he didn't see him, and quickly slipped away and continued to want to go deeper.

What Rayson didn't see was that there was no place in the room facing the doorway, and there was a man sitting with a huge pair of round-rimmed glasses, and a pile of slender iron nails in his hand, looking at the man in the cage with interest, as if looking at some interesting plaything.

The man in the cage watched Rayson walk away, and then saw the man in the room approaching him with a spike, and his eyes gradually became desperate......

Finally, Rayson made his way to the bottom floor, walking through a narrow path that ended in a corner with the Iron Gate Room next to it.

In front of the door stood two black-robed men with guns.

There is no other room here, and it is almost certain that Su Ling is locked up here. Rayson felt that the blood in his body was boiling, and secretly felt the claw knife and grabbed it in his hand.

"This new saintess is really barbaric, when I locked her in just now, I scratched Lao Tzu's face!"

One of the black-robed men grumbled and touched his face. The other black-robed man laughed and said, "Hehe, she still dares to be arrogant now, and when we wait for tomorrow's festival, we can take a good look at how the sect leader 'purified' her." ”

Hearing this, Rayson was so annoyed that he almost exploded, and his body was ready to rush over and kill these two people.

"The new saint is so restless, she won't run away again, right?"

"Don't worry. The sect leader strapped a bomb to her, and when she heard that as long as she ran a certain distance, the bomb would explode, and she would definitely not dare to run again! ”

Hearing this, Rayson, who was about to rush out, paused again and forcibly calmed himself down. What the tall black-robed man said just now that the 'thing' that made Su Ling not run away anymore turned out to be a bomb? And it sounds like a special setting has been entered, and as long as Su Ling wants to escape, the distance between him and the Saints Guild leader exceeds a certain range, it will automatically detonate?

Rayson couldn't help but feel worried about Su Ling's situation, and he was also angry at the methods of the old man sect leader of the Saints Guild. How can your own woman be coveted by others?! Or is it such a bad old man!?

One of the black-robed men obviously didn't know about the bomb, and his voice became terrified: "Made? Bomb? It won't affect me, will it? ”

"What do you think? Where are we? Ground floor! Can she still gouge out like a gopher? The other black-robed man said nonchalantly.

"But...... You can't let this new saint be tied to the bomb all the time, right? The black-robed man was obviously still not at ease: "Otherwise, those of us who guard her will not be safe." Who can stand to be with a ticking time bomb every day? ”

"Harm, tomorrow's festival, when the sect wants to 'purify' the new saint, the bomb will definitely be cleared." The other black-robed man was very calm, and there was a burst of wicked laughter: "Look at it, when the sect leader 'purifies' her, she will definitely be more obedient than the previous saint." Don't look at the sect leader's age, he has a lot of means! ......"

Lei Sen was in no mood to listen to it anymore, he only knew one thing, that is, he would definitely not be able to rescue Su Ling today. Not to mention whether he can take Su Ling out safely, if the bomb on Su Ling's body can't be unraveled, and he accidentally detonates and kills Su Ling, then his efforts all this time will be meaningless; The belief that he would live with his dead body would also completely collapse.

He needed another better time to get Su Ling away, at least after the bomb was disarmed.

Knowing that behind that door was Su Ling, but for her safety, Lei Sen could only resist the thought of rushing over and comfort himself that it wouldn't take long.

"Wait for me...... We'll be able to meet soon...... Su Ling ......"

Rayson said to himself secretly, gritted his teeth, and turned to leave.

On the way back, Rayson didn't encounter any obstacles, there was no one patrolling underground, as long as he walked lightly and didn't attract attention, he could easily leave. When I returned to the first floor of the villa, the oil lamp was still on the table, and the black-robed man who was guarding it just now did not come back.

Rayson climbed out of the window on the second floor of the villa and returned to the small building the same way. Using the 'mission of the sun god' as a threat, Becky really stayed here obediently and didn't go anywhere.

As soon as he came back, without giving Becky a chance to speak first, Rayson asked with a slap in his face, "Tomorrow is your festival, right?" When will it start? ”

"Huh?" Becky was stunned for a moment, and said without thinking: "It's usually at noon, when the sun is at its brightest." The Master, the High Priest, and the Law Enforcement Team will be there. ”

After saying this, Becky finally reacted, looked at Rayson and said, "Are you planning to wait for the festival to meet the new saint?" No, you can't! Ordinary church members and congregants can only watch the service from the periphery, and you can just look at her from a distance! The people who will maintain order at the festival tomorrow are all elite members of the law enforcement team, and they are all very powerful! If you get too close, you're in danger! ”

Rayson listened, a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and he secretly thought in his heart.

"Elite? Lao Tzu is the best of his mother's fighting! ”
