Chapter 100: In the Captured Dungeon, Protecting His Beloved Disciples
Outside the wooden house, a five or six-year-old boy stuck out his head and secretly looked inside, looking like a tiger's head, his face was dirty, and suddenly his ears were picked up.
"You naughty wretch, you're hiding here eavesdropping, and you're going to be beaten if your grandmother finds out." A sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl poked the little boy's forehead fiercely, her skin flashed with ivory light, a pair of dark and bright eyes embedded in her handsome face, and her thick black hair was tied into several thin braids, which fell on her chest, and there was a hint of playfulness in her wildness.
The little boy turned his head and muttered, "I'm old enough to share my grandmother's worries." ”
The girl crouched down and wiped the mud from his face with a smile, "Adults don't fight in the mud." ”
The little boy pouted and said, "It was Bomi who pushed me first, and I pulled him into the mud......"
As he was saying this, he saw two foreigners being escorted out of the hut, and when they walked past the sister and brother, and when they saw that they were being held in the dungeon, Thea asked her sister, "Sister, are they really the ones who poisoned the river?" ”
Naxi looked at the two of them, her eyes fell on one of the girls who was her age, and her brows furrowed, "I don't know either." ”
Yu Ye and Mo Fei were locked in the dungeon, the sun was scorching the earth, the hot sunlight penetrated the wooden fence, making people have nowhere to hide, they had not entered the water for a long time, Mo Fei was thirsty, and seeing that Yu Ye's lips were also dry and wrinkled, she looked out through the wooden fence, and two Wu people with spears were standing in the shade to guard.
"Can you ...... Give us some water? Murphy shouted at them, but they just glanced back at them, and then turned back, ignoring them.
"We are dying of thirst, and you can't sacrifice to the mountain gods!" After several shouts and no response, Murphy sat on the ground in despair.
"Save effort, they won't care about us." Yu Ye shook his head, he looked at Mo Fei, and saw her leaning against the wall tiredly, looking at her worriedly, "I'm sorry, Master didn't protect you well." ”
"Master, don't say I'm sorry, we will definitely be able to escape, and we will also be able to get the holy water." Mo Fei's eyes looked at Yu Ye firmly, and Yu Ye curled the corners of his mouth and nodded slightly.
As the last rays of the setting sun disappear from the earth, Tamu Mountain is draped in a layer of dark blue sky, dotted with stars, like the skirt of the goddess adorned with pearls, beautiful, the moon rises, and the silver-white moonlight falls on the undulating mountains, everything is shrouded in poetic landscape paintings.
If she hadn't been imprisoned, she would have been sacrificed to the mountain god in three days, Mo Fei really liked it here, she put her hand under her head, the moonlight shone in through the fence, and the moonlight like water overflowed the entire dungeon, stretched out her hand to pick the unreachable star, clenched her fist, three or two fell into the palm of her hand, and the corners of Mo Fei's mouth rose lightly.
"Master, if we go back, will you take me to Tianhe to see the stars again?" Mo Fei looked at Yu Ye.
"Okay, when we get back, I'll take you to see the stars." Yu Ye smiled and nodded, he looked at Mo Fei, her hair was a little messy, and her face was dirty, but it didn't affect her radiant eyes in the slightest.
"For some reason, it makes me feel like home, maybe
It's a revelation from the gods, and things will definitely turn around. Mo Fei tugged his lips and looked at Yu Ye with sparkling eyes.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of rustling next to the fence, Mo Fei put his finger to his lips, signaling that there was someone outside Yuye, and sure enough, in the clear and bright moonlight, a small foot wearing grass shoes emerged from the grass, Mo Fei looked into the distance, and the two Wu people with spears in their hands sat on the ground drinking and chatting, and looked in the direction of the dungeon from time to time.
"I guessed things would turn around." Mo Fei smiled slyly at Yuye.
"Come out, I see you." Murphy walked over to the fence and whispered, but there was no movement outside.
"Come out if it's a man, and I can tell you who poisoned the river." Mo Fei raised his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth hooked, she didn't believe that he didn't come out.
After a while, a round face appeared outside the fence, a five or six-year-old witch boy, his eyes wide.
"Tell me who poisoned me?" The little boy pouted.
"And you're going to tell me what's your name?" Murphy looked at the cute little boy in front of him and asked with a smile.
"I won't tell you, grandmother said that the people of the Celestial Clan are more cunning than foxes." The little boy stared at Murphy warily.
"Why are you here when you can't trust us?" Murphy looked at him with crooked eyebrows.
"That's because...... Because I want to save our people, since the river water has been poisoned, everyone can only go over the mountains and mountains to another water source far away to get water, the road is far away, and it is very dangerous, two days ago, Uncle Dile and Uncle Dada were bitten to death by a fierce beast on the way to get water......" At this, the little boy lowered his head and raised the back of his hand to wipe away the tears in his eyes.
Seeing him crying, Mo Fei couldn't bear it, she reached out from the fence and touched the top of the little boy's head, "Don't worry, we'll find a way to save your people." ”
The little boy looked up, his eyes twinkling, "Do you have a way to save us?" ”
Naxi tossed and turned in bed, she had always believed in her grandmother's decision, but today she always felt a little unsure when she saw her grandmother lock up those two people from the Celestial Clan as poisoners.
Maybe they don't look like bad people, and there is a girl of her age, who is so beautiful that people can't help but feel good about her at first glance, but grandmother wants to sacrifice them to the mountain god in three days, is this really a wise choice, Naxi sighed.
I don't know if Xia kicked the quilt, Naxi walked to the next room with a heavy heart, pushed open the door, but found that there was no one on the bed, and she was shocked.
After searching all over and finding no trace of Xia Ya, Na Xi suddenly remembered the two Celestial Clansmen, Xia seemed to be very interested in them, thinking of this, she hurriedly ran in the direction of the dungeon.
"Princess, what are you doing here at such a late hour?" When the Wu soldiers sitting on the ground saw the princess, they quickly put down the wine jug in their hands and stood up in a panic.
"I just heard a bear crying outside the house, go and see, is there a bear running in?" Naxi said as she looked at the small figure in front of the dungeon.
"This ......," the soldiers faced
After all, the patriarch told them to guard the dungeon and not leave for a moment.
"What if Grandmother knew you were drinking on duty?" Naxi crossed her waist and raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Princess, let's go." The soldiers turned pale and said to Naxi.
Seeing them walking away, Naxi strode to the dungeon, picked up the cat from behind and hid in the grass, and said angrily, "I know you're here, go back with me." ”
"Sister, they're not bad people, can you get your grandmother to let them go?" With anticipation in her eyes, Sia looked at Naxi.
Naxi's eyes fell on the face of the girl in front of the dungeon, seeing her looking at herself, her face was stained with some dust, but those eyes were like the stars on Tamu Mountain, which made people want to be close at first sight, Naxi took a deep breath, she couldn't disobey her grandmother's order, took Xia's hand, and was about to go out.
"Wait, you're Thea's sister, aren't you? My name is Murphy, and maybe we can help you find a way. Murphy said hurriedly.
Just now she learned from Xia Ya's mouth that the reason why the Wu people did not migrate after the water source was polluted, just because this land is the lifeblood of the Tamu Mountains, and the ancestors of the Wu tribe promised the Kunlun Mountain God a long time ago that they would protect this place for generations, in exchange for the protection of the mountain god, let them multiply, and pass on the lineage, if they left, it would be a violation of the promise of the mountain god.
"Do you have a solution?" After hearing this, Naxi couldn't hide her excitement on her face, and she looked back at the girl in the dungeon.
"Not yet, but we'll find a way, trust us." Murphy said sincerely.
Naxi shook her head, it seemed that the Celestial people just wanted to get out of the dungeon, so they said this deliberately, and she turned around and left with a disappointed Xia.
Seeing the backs of the two sisters and brothers, Mo Fei was a little depressed, Yu Ye comforted her, "Don't think too much, there are still three days, there is no endless road, you are tired from traveling today, you rest early, don't think about anything, sleep, Master guards you." ”
Mo Fei nodded, she was really tired, she felt her body getting heavier and heavier, sleepiness came at her, she slowly closed her eyes, thinking that maybe tomorrow all the problems would be solved.
Seeing that Mo Fei was asleep, Yu Ye also closed his eyes, thinking about who the poisoner was and what his purpose was......
The next day, just after dawn, there was a group of angry Wu people outside the dungeon, and I don't know who said that these two Celestial people poisoned the river water, causing everyone's anger.
"If it weren't for them, Dile and Dada would not have died, killing the Celestial people to avenge Dile and Dada." A high-pitched voice resounded in the crowd, resonating with all the witch people, who threw a stone in the direction of the dungeon.
When the guards reacted, countless stones were thrown in the direction of the dungeon, and the guards also fled with their heads in their hands, and the stones smashed into the dungeon fiercely, and the narrow dungeon had nowhere to hide, and Yu Ye held Mo Fei in his arms.
"Fei'er, wake up, Fei'er......" Yu Ye called her name, but Mo Fei's face flushed abnormally, and Yu Ye nervously put her hand on Mo
Fei's forehead, feeling that her hands were hot, thinking that she fell into the water yesterday and suffered from the cold at night, she would have a high fever.
Yu Ye hugged Mo Fei tightly in front of his chest, using his back as a shield to resist the attacks of these angry people, without mana, those hard stones smashed heavily on his back, yesterday's old injuries were not healed, and new injuries reappeared, Yu Ye gritted his teeth, he would never let Mo Fei suffer any harm.
Naxi was about to go to see her grandmother, when she came over, she saw a group of people who were throwing stones into the dungeon, shouting that they would kill the Celestial Clan to avenge the dead, and the guards were gone, she was anxious and ordered everyone to stop, "This is a sacrifice to the mountain god, if anyone hurts the sacrifice, then he will become their replacement." ”
Eyes swept over the group of people, everyone saw that the princess was coming, they didn't dare to squeak, and slowly dispersed, Naxi asked the guards to open the dungeon, and the scene in front of her made her nose sour.
