Chapter 90: Kidnapping
"Do you have to wait for the witch's next move? But it's not clear if they do it once every 10 days. Su Ming walked on the road and thought.
"What if they had sacrificed the people and flown away? Where are we going? ”
How to find the witch has always been a thorn in the heart of Destod, this group of witches slaughtered the people at any cost, bringing a lot of negative effects to the empire.
Coupled with the extreme actions of the Inquisition, the people's opposition to the Empire's decisions grew louder.
"Because of the witch's crimes, the Empire has sent an investigation into the Inquisition, and anyone who has doubts must cooperate unconditionally......" Tang Tian read the notice on the notice next to him.
"The people are gone, the witch is gone! This bunch of fools jumped out. Tang Tian shook his head as he looked at the imperial announcement.
Su Ming also glanced at it, and there were some messy papers pasted on the notice row, some of which had blurred the color and text of the paper after the wind and rain.
Su Ming took a cursory look, turned his head and continued walking. After a few steps, he stopped and retreated back to the vicinity of the sign.
"What's wrong?" Tang Tian turned to look at Su Ming.
The wooden sign was rough and old, and Su Ming was caught by a piece of parchment in the corner.
Tang Tian walked over and looked at the parchment that Su Ming was staring at.
"Whoa!"
Tang Tian took off the parchment with his hand, and there were some irregular lines drawn on it, and the intricate patterns were like words and distorted pictures.
"What the hell is drawn on this?" Tang Tian glanced at it and didn't see anything famous.
"Did you bring potato chips? The bagged kind? Su Ming asked, and the sudden change in topic caught Tang Tian off guard.
"Are you hungry?"
Tang Tian took out a bag of potato chips from his backpack and handed it to Su Ming.
Su Ming opened it along the mouth of the bag and was about to pour out the potato chips inside.
"What are you doing, don't waste my snacks!"
"All I need is the bag."
"You said it earlier." Tang Tian grabbed the potato chips inside and chewed them quickly, and ate the potato chips after a while.
After Su Ming took the bag, he opened the potato chip belt along the edge, revealing the silver aluminum plating layer inside.
After rolling the potato chips into a columnar stick, Su Ming used the blade of his sword to cut off the irregularities.
He rolled the silver inner layer on the outside and placed it on the parchment paper to observe, and as the potato chips with the roll were constantly adjusted, a row of text-like patterns appeared on the roll.
"Dedication to the Revered Night Raven, Cinting (the last month of spring), Sheep's Horn, Sacrifice, Furry (the first month of summer), Dark, Cowin (Witches' Gathering)." Tang Tian read the text above in surprise, but he didn't expect Su Ming to ask for potato chips here.
"Does that mean sacrifice in the last month of spring, and witch gatherings at the beginning of summer?"
"That's how it should be, that's probably how the witches usually spread the news." Su Ming put away the parchment paper and potato chip belt.
"I know it's a demon, but what does Darke mean?"
"I'm going to go back and ask someone who knows." Su Ming walked towards the church where he came.
"Trial of the two Maude, what did you find?" The bishop asked, seeing the two returning.
"People are scared away, what can they find."
Su Ming and Tang Tian sat at a luxurious dining table, which was filled with sumptuous delicacies. Su Ming took a sip of wine from his wine glass, and the food was fine.
Seeing that Su Ming was gone, Tang Tian was also relieved to eat.
"Do you know Darke?"
"It's like a forest by Lengyue Lake, I've heard of this place before, it's relatively close to the border, but there's a kind of black tea that is abundant there, so the economy is very prosperous." The bishop replied thoughtfully.
"If you need black tea, I'm here ......"
"No, I don't."
After eating and drinking, Su Ming and the others left in the carriage again, and listening to the bishop, Darke Forest seemed to be the place where witches gathered.
"Don't let me down, Darke." Su Ming looked at the scenery passing by outside the window and said.
With the goal in mind, Su Ming cheered up, and the carriage galloped on the road for two days, and the two finally stopped outside a village near Darke.
The witch's influence didn't seem to come to this, and the two found a secluded place to get out of the car. Traders from the villages and towns come and go here with large and small bags of goods.
Su Ming walked past a bewitching woman, keenly feeling an unusual aura.
"Witch?" Tang Tian looked at Su Ming staring at a fat woman in front of him and asked on the team channel.
"It's a different breath from ordinary people."
"You're a great professional!" Tang Tian was surprised by Su Ming.
The two followed the bewitching woman, and the information from the detector confirmed Su Ming's guess.

The task is to find a witch even if it is completed, but there is still a lot of time left, Su Ming plans to follow this potions master to see if he can find her gang.
"This fat woman is a witch?" Tang Tian looked at the obese in front of him and said, the other party's figure of more than 200 pounds was squeezed into a piece of fur, and his face was painted with heavy makeup.
"What broom do you think can hold her?" Su Ming smiled after saying this.
"I won't allow this fat pig to ruin my impression of being a witch! Su Ming, kill her! Tang Tian stared at the apricot eyes, looking like I didn't believe it.
She had the impression that the witch was supposed to be the kind who wore sensual robes, wore a pointed witch hat, and flew on a broom with a black cat in her arms. Instead of a fat pig that can crush people!
The two followed the witch around the village and town for most of the time, and in order not to startle the snake, they only followed not far from the rear.
The witch seemed to be very fond of makeup, and the shops she entered were all shops that bought cosmetics.
"What kind of demon does this fat pig have to take a fancy to her?" Tang Tian guessed ill-intentionedly.
It was three hours before the witch entered an inn.
The inn is not luxurious, but business is booming. The restaurant on the ground floor is packed with people, and all kinds of business groups are here shouting and shouting the dishes on the menu.
"I brought something to our wife, and she forgot something." Su Ming found the hotel cashier at the counter and said.
"Who are you talking about?"
"She's wearing fur and has a very ...... build," Su Ming made a wide gesture.
"Oh, it's the lady, she lives in room 13 on the second floor."
Su Ming took Tang Tian to the room on the second floor, and after feeling the breath, he confirmed that there was only one person inside.
"Dangdang!"
"Who?" A sweet voice came from inside, and those who didn't know thought it was a sweet woman inside.
"Hello ma'am, one of the cosmetics you bought from our store just now was missing, and we sent it to you."
"Squeak." The door opened, and the witch was greeted by a punching bag-sized fist.
Su Ming knocked her down with a punch and walked into the house, which contained only some luggage and cosmetics that the witch had carried.
Aung Laqi woke up to a sharp pain in her nose, and just as she tried to move, she found that her hands were tied.
Some bottles and cans on his body were also placed on the table, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Su Ming and Tang Tian sitting opposite.
"Who are you?"
"Isn't that obvious? Kidnap! Madame~"
Su Ming took Han Feng and shaved his nails, and Sen Han's sword blade made Aung Laqi feel a chill on his skin.
"Do you know...... Ang Laqi just wanted to use his identity as a witch to scare off the two, but immediately reacted that he was restrained, and at this time he exposed his identity, and the consequences could be laughed to death by his peers.
"Know what?" Tang Tian glared.
"I don't really have any money, my money is there." Aung Laqi looked at the money bag on the table, damn it! Fortunately, this group of people did not find any clues from their medicine bottles.
"That's not enough for me, and if all you have is this money, I'll have to send you back to the arms of God." Su Ming stopped the blade of his nails and glanced at her indifferently.
Aung Laqi scolded himself for running out to buy some cosmetics, but he didn't expect to be caught by the kidnapping gang.
"Look at my eyes, I'm actually a poor woman......"
[Hint: You are affected by the Temptation effect, and your current will judgment ignores the effect.] 】
"What's wrong with the poor man? My sword does not recognize anyone. ”
"Holy God! Why wasn't this person tempted? Aung Laqi felt bad.
When she was about to use the chanting spell, Su Ming walked over with the sword, and Aung Laqi hurriedly shut up.
"Listen to the fat woman, if you don't have enough money to redeem yourself, I'll send you to hell right now, and let the demon be your companion." Su Ming pulled her up from the ground with one hand, and the cold blade of the sword pressed against Aung Laqi's neck, cutting a shallow scar.
"There are !!" Ang Laqi changed his words, it seems that the other party is a ruthless person with a strong will, and if he doesn't pay the money, I'm afraid he will die here immediately.
"Where's the money?"
"I'm here with my family, you can take me to them, they're willing to pay you ransom!" Aung Laqi raised his head, trying to keep his fat neck away from the blade.
"Do you know what the consequences of lying to me are?"
"I really didn't lie to you!"
Su Ming gagged her mouth and wrapped a scarf around her mouth. Then cover the hands tied behind your back with fur.
Ang Laqi and Su Ming walked out of the house, "As long as you meet your friends, you must personally torture these two timid mortals." Aung Lachi thought viciously.
"If you dare to run away, I'll let your upper body and lower body be separated, understand?" When passing through the living room on the ground floor, Su Ming whispered viciously, he was trying to play a bandit who kidnapped tickets.
