Chapter 21: The Demon God Messenger
But after thinking about it, Song Nian still felt that he had thought too little just now, and he had to think more deeply and comprehensively.
"Not only did I get out of danger smoothly, but I had to let Hu Ren send us out respectfully. If you don't have enough to eat, you have to ask them for it...... Of course, we are not demons, and we can't take other people's things for nothing. ”
"Got out of danger smoothly? What did the Hu people give us to eat? Master, are you alright? Su Qi'er cautiously asked what Chu He didn't dare to ask.
"What, you can't trust Master?" Song Nian smiled and touched Su Qi'er's little brain.
Su Qi'er shrunk her neck: "Letter...... Believed. ”
"Wait until I'm going to confirm something." Song Nian cautiously climbed up and secretly looked out from the arrow stack.
I saw that behind the Hu people who were shooting arrows, there were several thin Hu people in the distance, standing in the distance and looking at this side.
These people have slender heads and flowery hair, like cabbage.
When he returned to the following, Song Nian thought about it and said a word to Chu He.
"Take it off!"
"Take it off?" Chu He was stunned: "What to take off?" ”
"Take off your clothes, or take off something!" Song Nian said impatiently: "Hurry up!" ”
Chu He gritted his teeth and took off the clothes of the Hu people he was wearing outside.
"I don't want this, I want this dress inside you! You're going to wear this Hu man's clothes. Song Nian said angrily.
Chu He's face turned slightly red.
"Okay, skinny monkey, who's going to see." Song Nian turned around: "Hurry up!" ”
Su Qi'er held back a smile and turned away.
A moment later, a pile of Dayyoung costumes was thrown aside.
Song Nian tore off his clothes, wrapped them in Chu He's hands with a smile, and pointed to the dried corpses with black spots all over his body: "Throw them out of the city from the city." ”
Chu He was stunned for a moment, and then nodded silently.
Song Nian smiled: "Why don't you be afraid, this is a very strong epidemic." ”
Chu He shook his head: "You can't ...... Let your daughter's family go and throw this kind of corpse. ”
Song Nian smiled: "Don't worry, do a good job of protection...... This thing is not so scary. ”
Chu He carried the dried corpse to the city and threw it out directly, which naturally brought a rain of arrows.
But Chu He had already prepared and jumped directly from the city.
The Hu people's bows and arrows did not know how to shoot, and they were no threat to the three people hiding in the city.
The next moment, there was an uproar outside the city.
Obviously, the dried corpse ...... It made these Hu people extremely frightened.
Then, Song Nian heard the voices of several old men, and immediately quietly climbed up to the top of the city to watch.
Sure enough, several strange-shaped Hu people who were originally standing in the distance walked up to the dried corpses and chanted strange incantations.
"Chu He, do you see it? That's the key. Song Nian pointed to the old Hu man who was revolving around the dried corpse.
Chu He stared at these elderly Hu people and observed them carefully.
The original bizarre heads of these old bearded people are actually various feathers inserted on the top of their heads, and under the light of torches, there is a strange and primitive beauty.
Chu He observed for a moment and concluded: "No...... The distance is too far and there is no bow and arrow, so it is difficult to kill. ”
"Who told you to kill them?" Song Nian glanced at Chu He: "These people are our treasures, but they can't be killed." Back...... They have to do a lot of things. ”
After a while, the old Hu man outside the city finished chanting the incantation, and then took out some potion from his bosom and sprinkled it on the dead body.
"What are they doing?" Chu He asked in a low voice.
Song Nian smiled: "It should be sprinkled with a potion of insect repellent...... Or rather, a potion to ward off evil spirits. ”
"Does it work?" Chu He frowned.
Song Nian smiled: "It doesn't matter if it's useful or not, the key is ...... Other Hu people believe that it is useful! ”
In fact, splashing insect repellent potion has a certain effect...... However, it is splashed on oneself for a long time to drive away fleas.
If you just sprinkle it on this corpse, the effect of the medicine will soon pass, but it doesn't really mean much.
Seeing that these old Hu people were about to end the ceremony, Song Nian asked Chu He to throw another dried corpse down.
The Hu people below suddenly became more and more restless.
But this time, the city was not greeted with a rain of arrows.
Chu He was a little puzzled, and said in a low voice: "Why didn't you shoot arrows this time?" ”
Song Nian smiled and said lightly: "It's very simple...... Because, they ...... I'm scared! ”
Fear of unknown forces.
Especially these Hu people who rely on the sky to eat, crawl and roll in the wind, frost, rain and snow, and live in pursuit of water and grass, this is even more so.
In the face of terrible things that they do not understand at all, and maintain a basic awe, these Hu can survive on the grassland.
"In that case, how many more dried corpses shall I throw down?" Chu He asked.
"It's almost time for this!" Song Nian smiled.
Fear is not always better.
Once a certain boundary is crossed, these Hu people become restless, and maybe they will directly rush into the ancient city of Longyou, and it will be all over.
"Get up, come up." Song Nian called Su Qi'er to the city, and then muttered a few in his ear.
Then, according to Song Nian's meaning, Su Qi'er said loudly in Hu language in the city.
The Hu people below suddenly became agitated.
One by one, they put their bows and arrows, but they did not dare to shoot arrows.
Chu He was stunned for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "What did you ask Su Qi'er to say?" ”
Song Nian smiled faintly: "I asked Qi'er to tell them that I am the messenger of the Black Death, and I came with death." If they continue to attack us, I will unleash the endless black devils and turn the steppe into a dead realm once and for all. ”
Chu He frowned: "This is nonsense...... Will these Hu people believe it? ”
Song Nian said lightly: "Will ...... Because, since they are so nervous, it means that ...... They've seen it happen so many times......"
This is the plague......
That is, the famous ...... Black death!
Although the people in Longyou City are dead...... But the germs are still there, and once they are re-infected by gerbils and the like in the vicinity, they will re-infect the germs to travelers who have strayed into the city...... Then the steppe tribe that this traveler comes into contact with will be completely wiped out......
After all, on the steppe, there is a lack of fuel and water, there is little bathing, and there are not too many fleas......
But Song Nian won't tell Chu He about all this.
After all...... If you talk too much, it's too much like chatterbox.
Well, it's definitely not to pretend to be in front of him or create some boring mystery.
Su Qi'er's words made the Hu people below frightened and rioted.
After a while, several old Hu people below were frightened for a moment, and suddenly began to reprimand those Hu people who were holding bows and arrows
After a scolding, these Hu people obediently put down their bows and arrows.
Then, the old bearded man raised his hoarse voice and shouted a few words.
Su Qi'er listened and said to Song Nian, "Master...... They asked...... What can we do to prove that we are the messengers of the Black Sky Demon God? “
"The messenger of the Black Sky Demon God?" Song Nian was stunned: "Are you sure you heard it right?" ”
