Chapter 492: It will eat people
Madame Zhuo looked around cautiously and lowered her voice to a very low level. "Madame, have you heard the rumors that the Fuqiang people will eat people?"
Lin Mumu nodded. "I've heard of it, but is it true?"
"Of course it's true, my old man has seen it with his own eyes! It's their patriarch who eats people, eats human flesh, and eats men in the prime of life, especially those who are good-looking and strong! ”
Lin Mumu's brows twisted slightly, this person is simply a big pervert!
"In the early years, the old man of my family was on duty in the Patriarch's Mansion...... Every year in the tribe, there will be a disappearance of middle-aged men who come to play or do business, once or twice, but the number of times is more, whether it is your Eastern Jin Dynasty or Western Chu, there is an official government to find someone, and there is some foundation in the homes of those missing people, but they are not from the territory, and it is not easy to find someone in the territory of the Fuqiang tribe, and the matter will not be known in the end. ”
Mrs. Zhuo paused before continuing: "The people in the tribe also thought it might be an accident at the time, after all, there are so many poisons in the clan, and not every family can take care of it, and it is not impossible for some poisons to slip out and harm people, but later my old man found a lot of human bones in the patriarch's house......
Before marrying Mrs. Zhuo, Zhuo Bu stayed in the patriarch's mansion for several years, mainly to do some snake work, and also found a lot of human bones in a snake cave by chance, judging from the clothes on those human bones, they are not from the Fuqiang tribe at all, Zhuo Bu instantly thought of the missing merchant at that time, and the whole person was so frightened that he immediately found an excuse to quit his job and go home.
After that, there would be a lot of people in the tribe going missing every year, and every time Zhuo Bu heard the news, he couldn't sleep all night, and Mrs. Zhuo kept asking, and it took many years for Zhuo Bu to say it.
"Mrs. Zhuo is saying, that pervert, that patriarch still eats people?"
"Yes." Zhuo Bu said that the snake cave was usually not close to anyone except him and the patriarch, and the human bones were not put in by him, so only the patriarch.
"So Mrs. Zhao must not take any chances."
"But didn't you say that all the men who have disappeared over the years are young men? She shouldn't be interested in me, a woman with no two flesh and bones, right? ”
Mrs. Zhuo shook her head, where could she know about this, she only felt that the place was dangerous, and she should not go unless she had to.
"Thank you Mrs. Zhuo for telling me the truth, but I'm really worried about the safety of my master, if I don't go to see it, my heart will be uneasy."
Mrs. Zhuo saw that she had made up her mind, so she said no more. "Then Mrs. Zhao be careful."
"Well, I'll take notice."
Lin Mumu and Wu Ze left Zhuo's house, looking at Lin Mumu's figure walking away, Mrs. Zhuo sighed.
"Or are you leaving?" Zhuo Bu walked out of the inner room.
"Well, I hope they're all okay." Mrs. Zhuo felt that Lin Mumu was still good.
"Hmph, it's better never to come back!" Zhuo Li walked out at some point, looked at Lin Mumu's back and said viciously.
"Shut up!" Mrs. Zhuo reprimanded, she was angry with her daughter's reckless temperament, if Lin Mumu really cared about yesterday's events, it would be difficult to say whether she could stand here and say such stupid things, but she saw with her own eyes that Lin Mumu was able to get up and make the antidote by herself after being poisoned by Qinghuan, and the most important thing was that the antidote was made for her! Such a person is not something they can provoke.
Wu Ze took Lin Mumu to walk on the streets of the tribe, because it was the festival of the Fuqiang tribe, and there were many people in the tribe, and no one would notice them at all.
Wu Ze led her through the nine-bend and eighteen-bend streets to the foot of a mountain.
Lin Mumu followed Wu Ze all the time, and he didn't say anything from beginning to end.
"What is this place?" Lin Mumu looked around without a figure and spoke.
"It's another way out of the tribe, just cross this col to get out." Wu Zedao.
"What about the prince, when will he come to join us?"
"Soon."
"Then I'm not going, I'm going to find the prince." Lin Mumu said and turned around and left.
A ghostly light flashed in Wu Ze's eyes, and her body flashed to block her way.
"Madame, come with me."
Lin Mumu squinted her eyes and looked at him expressionlessly. "What if I don't?"
The glow in Wu Ze's eyes was even worse, and a hideous look suddenly appeared on his face, glaring at Lin Mumu coldly. "Then don't blame your subordinates for being rude, uh, ah!"
"You're welcome to go to your uncle!"
As soon as Wu Ze finished speaking, he was slapped into the big vertebral point by Lin Mumu's palm, her palm was not strong, but Wu Ze snorted in pain, and then a black steel needle broke out from the back of Wu Ze's neck.
Seeing this, Lin Mumu pulled out the steel needle.
"I've suffered a loss once, and I won't let myself suffer a second time."
"Uh-huh!"
Wu Ze's feet were weak, and he fell to the ground.
Lin Mumu took out a porcelain bottle from his body, opened it, put it on the tip of his nose and shook it, Wu Ze slowly came to his senses after a thrill.
Wu Ze raised his slightly confused eyes and glanced at Lin Mumu, and then looked around. "Ma'am, where is this?"
Lin Mumu threw the steel needle into his hand and stood up. "Hell knows what this place is."
Wu Ze touched his neck, he always felt that there was some hot pain there, and he couldn't even remember how he got here. 118
"Then why are the subordinates and their wives here?"
"You've been hit by a Dementor Needle, so I don't remember what stupid things I've done, it looks like the other party wants to lead me to this mountain, what the hell is she trying to do......"
"Dementor Needle?" Wu Ze looked at the steel needle in his hand in astonishment, he was the leader of the dark guard who knew things, so he naturally didn't say anything, and he also knew something about this soul needle, as long as he was hit by this soul needle, he would be at the mercy of the other party, he was glad that the soul needle in his body was brought out by Lin Mumu in time, otherwise if he did something to hurt Lin Mumu, he would really have to die to apologize.
"Madame, what shall we do now?"
Lin Mumu looked at the front and frowned, Wu Ze was hit by the soul needle before telling her those words to bring her here, so now Zhao Xuanling is likely to be still with the patriarch.
"Did the person you sent to investigate respond?"
"When they came back, they said that although there were not many people in that house, there were poisons everywhere, and two people on our side had been accidentally injured, and their subordinates did not dare to let them act rashly, for fear that they would startle the snake."
Lin Mumu nodded, it was right not to do this. "The other party asked you to bring me here, there must be a purpose, you first let people secretly stay in Zhuobu's house and wait, see if the prince will go back."
"Yes."
"If the other party can't make a plan, they will definitely think of tricks again, so we might as well just plan and see what they want to do."
"Will it be calculated?"
Lin Mumu nodded. "I'll put the Soul Needle back for you in a moment, so you can receive their commands."
Wu Ze was stunned, if he was put back, what should he do if the other party instructed him to do something to hurt Lin Mumu?
Lin Mumu saw his doubts and said with relief: "Don't worry, I said that I planted this thing, and once is enough." ”
She didn't say anything big, she took the time to ponder this thing after both of them were given soul needles before, and really figured out some ways for her, not to mention this ordinary soul needle now, even at a higher level, she can see it.
Lin Mumu took the soul needle in Wu Ze's hand, and didn't give him a chance to hesitate, and directly deducted it.
"Hmm!"
Wu Ze only felt a numbness in his neck, and in the next moment, his eyes changed suddenly.
At this time, a man in a black robe on the mountain looked at the bone flute in his hand and frowned. "Strange, why is there no response over there."
After muttering, he put the bone flute to his lips again and played it, and when the flute sound dispersed, a string of red bells rang in his hand.
The reaction over there came, and the black-robed man was relieved, maybe he didn't blow it just now.
Wu Ze, who was once again controlled by the soul needle, led Lin Mumu to the mountain with an expressionless face.
After walking for about two quarters of an hour, Wu Ze suddenly stopped.
Lin Mumu pretended to ask, "Wu Ze, what are you bringing me to this place for?" ”
Wu Ze turned around slowly, looking at her with blank pupils.
At this moment, a soft sound suddenly came from behind Lin Mumu, and she saw a man in black standing behind her after a while.
The man had drawn a strange blue pattern on his face for some reason, and a pair of eyes looked at her with a gloomy look.
"Arrest her." This was said to Wu Ze.
Wu Ze stepped forward and grabbed Lin Mumu.
"Wu Ze, what are you doing, you are crazy, let go of me!" Lin Mumu twisted her body in a panic and tried to break free from Wu Ze's restraint, but no matter how she struggled, it was to no avail.
The black-robed man threw the rope to Wu Ze. "Tie it up."
Wu Ze did so expressionlessly.
After seeing that Lin Mumu was tied hands, the black-robed man turned around and walked in front.
Wu Ze followed behind with Lin Mumu.
When Wu Ze was holding Lin Mumu, Lin Mumu took advantage of the fact that the man in front of him was not paying attention, and stabbed the silver needle that had long been hidden in his hand into Wu Ze's hand.
Wu Ze felt a numbness in his hands, and his empty pupils soon had focus, he looked at the man in front of him, and then looked at Lin Mumu who was being held by him, and was slightly stunned, but fortunately, Lin Mumu had told him about the soul needle before, so he quickly calmed down and glanced at Lin Mumu, signaling that she had woken up.
Lin Mumu nodded, pretending that nothing had happened and continuing to follow behind the black-robed man.
The black-robed man led them into the mountains, and finally came to a cave hidden behind a large tree, and led the two of them inside.
As soon as he entered the cave, Lin Mumu felt a damp breath rushing to his face, mixed with a fishy smell.
The cave was not deep, and they quickly came to the end.
The black-robed man came to the stone wall on the right hand, stretched out his hand and knocked rhythmically on the stone wall, Lin Mumu and Wu Ze secretly observed and recorded his gestures.
There was a soft "click", and the stone door blocking it moved slowly, opening up the distance for two people to enter at the same time.
