Chapter 230: The Dark Part
I looked at the coffin and looked down at my father in my arms.
"Chu girl, my senior brother's corpse has maggots, and if you hold it like this, you won't even have any flesh and skin left." After that, Doctor Cao said to the masked people: "Smoke it with herbs, at least, before sending it back to the priesthood, you don't want the body to be unrecognizable, right?" ”
"Priestess?" I was stunned and raised my eyes to look at Dr. Cao.
"They have the brass bells of the priests on them." Dr. Cao stared at the waists of the masked men.
I followed his gaze, and sure enough, they all had brass bells pinned to their waists.
It's just that this brass bell seems to be different from the brass bell I have seen for the worshippers, it is black.
"This is the priest, the bronze bell of the dark department, they are the dead!" Doctor Cao said, looked at the masked people, and asked lightly: "Who are you obeying now?" ”
The masked men, who did not respond, just placed the coffin on the carriage frame and motioned for me to put my father's body down.
"Chu girl, leave it to them, the body is full of maggots, and soon the skin and flesh will be eaten, and now they still need to keep your father's body for the job, and they will definitely not let the body continue to rot." Dr. Cao opened his mouth to persuade me, and carried my father's body from my arms, and carefully placed it in the coffin.
The masked man carried the coffin away, and I stood up abruptly, and Dr. Cao turned around and sat down on my shoulder.
"Don't be impulsive, now, people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat." After saying that, he motioned to the masked men and brought me a jug of water.
They were also afraid that we would starve to death and die of thirst, so they gave us not only water, but also cooked food, and then closed the bronze door.
"Drink some water." Dr. Cao handed me the kettle.
"Doctor Cao, sister, Brother Fuyou, it's been a few days, why haven't you woken up yet?" Du Xiaowei sat slumped on her side, her eyes red.
"Internal wounds are more difficult to heal than those of flesh and skin." After Doctor Cao said, he stretched out his hand again, pressed the floating dantian, and then shook his head: "The inner dan has been taken away, if it weren't for his higher Taoism, I'm afraid, it would have completely revealed its original form." ”
"Nedan?" I looked at the floater, he hadn't woken up for so many days, and he had been asleep.
"He's on the verge of death, so he's going into a dormant state, which is a kind of self-preservation." Doctor Cao said and sighed.
"Then, then, when will Brother Floating be good? When can I wake up? Du Xiaowei's eyes were already full of tears.
Doctor Cao shook his head: "This, it depends on his own creation." ”
Hearing Dr. Cao's words, Du Xiaowei began to whimper and burst into tears.
And I, my eyes were dry, and I couldn't hold a single tear.
He just stretched out his hand and stroked his cheeks, thinking that the night before the mountain, when we were sitting in the gazebo, he smiled and told me that he would come back early.
This parting, who knows, has become like this.
"Don't cry, save some energy, maybe?" Dr. Cao lowered his voice very low.
What he means is that along the way, we may still have a chance to escape, otherwise, when we reach the priesthood, we are afraid that life is worse than death.
I lowered my eyes, glanced at the float, and then at Du Xiaowei.
"Xiaowei, drink some water." I handed the kettle to Du Xiaowei.
Du Xiaowei shook her head, just lowered her head and cried.
Dr. Cao sighed, did not persuade again, but motioned for me to drink water.
My lips were already chapped, thinking that even for the sake of Fuyou and Du Xiaowei, I couldn't go back to the Priest with these masked people, after all, if others didn't say it, I knew about the methods of the Priest Xiao Ce.
So, I took a sip of water.
The water was so sweet that they seemed to have mixed it with sugar water. Niuniu Chinese Network
They were worried that we would die suddenly on the road without eating or drinking.
I handed the water back to Dr. Cao, and winked at Dr. Cao, then shrank back towards the innermost part of the carriage.
Dr. Cao immediately understood, and also got up and moved to my side.
"Doctor Cao, from now on, you and I must think of an escape." I said, looking at the bronze door.
The priest has always been ruthless towards "traitors", and once Dr. Cao goes back, there is only one way to "die".
And floating is a demon, and the end must be no better than death.
As for Xiaowei, I don't know what the group of ruthless spirit worshippers will do to her.
If you don't escape on this road, once you enter Shengjing, you will be unable to fly.
"They're dead soldiers, right under their noses, trying to escape?" Doctor Cao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Actually, it's almost impossible. ”
"If you find an opportunity, I'll be bait to lure them away, you take Xiaowei and Float, and run away immediately." I kept my voice very low.
I don't believe that they will keep going all the way, and I don't believe that they will really keep us trapped in this carriage.
After all, there is not even a convenient place in the carriage.
"What? Are you luring them away? That? Dr. Cao's brows immediately frowned.
"Doctor Cao, my father, I killed me, everything is my fault, now, I have no blood relatives in this world, and there is no point in living." As I finished speaking, I felt a little pain in my throat.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You're still young, and there's still a long way to go, but I'm old. Doctor Cao paused as he spoke: "When the time comes, I will lead them away, and you can escape." ”
I immediately shook my head: "Doctor Cao, the floating injuries are so serious, without your treatment, I am afraid that I will not be able to survive, and if you go back with them, there will be only one way to die, you know this better than me, right?" ”
"Girl Chu, your father has entrusted you to me more than once, and now, he is dead, I can't protect you, just forget it, how can I let you be a "bait"? Dr. Cao was also unwilling.
"Doctor Cao, they may not kill me, and before I go to Shengjing, I maybe, I also have a chance to escape, in short, if I find an opportunity, you will cooperate with me." My attitude is resolute.
Dr. Cao was as firm as I was and disagreed with me.
In the end, none of us could convince anyone, and there was silence in the carriage.
Du Xiaowei was tired of crying, lay on her side, and fell asleep.
Dr. Cao and I, tacitly, thought about each other.
I have made up my mind that I will create an opportunity for them to escape.
"Click!"
Just as he was thinking about it, outside the carriage, there was a crisp sound like unlocking.
Immediately afterwards, the bronze door was opened, and I squinted my eyes and looked out of the bronze door, and I saw that it was already dark outside.
A masked man put a bag of food and a pot of water in the carriage, and prepared to close the bronze door.
"You're not going to let us stay in this carriage all the way, right?" I stared at the masked man.
The masked man's gaze immediately lifted up at me, but he didn't intend to pay attention to me.
"My feet seem to be starting to fester, you can find a medical clinic for me to see." I stared at the masked man and said, "Also, the floater has not woken up, but I am afraid that the injury is not optimistic. ”
I thought that if we could get out of the carriage and go to the hospital, then we would have a chance.
