Chapter 145: Crisis Strikes Again
When Yuan Xunshuang came to the entrance of the cave with Yanyu in his arms, he saw many villagers gathered around the waterhole, looking very frightened and regretful.
She hurriedly looked in the direction everyone was staring, and saw the corpses of more than a dozen villagers floating on the water, these corpses looked bloody and blurred, and their faces were almost unrecognizable.
In addition to the elderly and women, there were several minor children, and even one was only two or three years old.
Judging from the clothes on their bodies, it can be seen that they are all villagers, old and young, women and children, and it is obvious that they are some of the villagers who stayed in the cave.
It's just that I don't know what kind of misfortune they have experienced before, and they will end up like this.
Looking at the corpses in front of them, the villagers could imagine that they were the ones who hurt them, they should have been extremely cruel and very elusive, and they did not alarm the other villagers during the silent killing of a dozen people, which is absolutely something that extraordinary people can do.
And what made everyone even more frightening was that the dozen or so villagers were not floating on the surface of the water at random, and their bodies were deliberately put into strange poses.
Combined with the blood stains floating on the water around them, if you look at it from a distance, it actually looks a bit like words, and when you look at it from left to right, it happens to be a short sentence!
There are only twelve words in this sentence: hand over the book of heaven and leave, otherwise the whole village will die!
Obviously, this is a warning word, that is, the other party is fully capable of killing them all, but for the sake of the Book of Heaven, he didn't do it.
And after handing over the Book of Heaven, the other party is willing to let everyone live, that is, to leave the ruins.
Among the villagers who rushed to hear the news, there were more and more angry scoldings, cries, and discussions......
"Oh my God! Who did this? He actually did this to the defenseless old man and the child! ”
"How dare we be so unscrupulous in broad daylight, then in the middle of the night, wouldn't we even know how to die?"
"Book from heaven? I don't think it's familiar, like I've heard of it somewhere. ”
"Is there a book of heaven in our village? How come I haven't heard of it? ”
"I know, a year ago, when we were still in Yanjia Village, wasn't there a strange young man? Doesn't he just have a very magical ancient book in his hand, as if he can predict the future, I guess it's the ancient book he refers to? ”
"When you say that, I also remember, there was a young and handsome man who came to our village, and it seemed that he was surrounded by wolves, and we drove the wolves away to save him.?"
"It's called Ye Mei, right? It's the one who disappeared inexplicably after ten months of freezing, right? After he disappeared, there was another baby, and finally the baby was adopted by the old village chief, and he was also named Ye Mei, you are talking about him, right? ”
"Yes, yes, it's him, I've seen his ancient book a few times, and the pictures on it can really predict the future! I remember predicting that during the pregnancy ceremony, there would be a black-tailed leafhopper covered in ice to kill, and then on the last day of the pregnancy, there was really one! ”
"yes, I remembered, too. But didn't that Ye Mei leave our Yanjia Village a long time ago, and then that little baby, it was just the old village chief who named this baby Ye Mei in order to commemorate that Ye Mei, and it is not the same person at all, besides, how can such a young baby have a book of heaven? ”
"Could it be that the young man has become a baby boy? Isn't that incredible? ”
"If it's really like you said, then the little baby boy should have an ancient book on him, right? However, we have never heard the old village chief mention ancient books. The old village chief has always been honest, and if he really has ancient books, he will never hide them from all of us. ”
"It's a pity that the old village chief is still rebuilding his home in the deep valley at the moment, if he is here, he will know as soon as he asks."
"That's right, quickly send someone with a good hand and foot to report to the old village chief, such a big thing has happened here, we should quickly let the villagers of the deep valley come back, if we can't hand over the book of heaven as soon as possible, we will all die in the ruins, then there is no point in rebuilding our homes."
"Good! Then I'll go! I am familiar with the path to the deep valley, and promise to bring the old village chief back in an hour. ”
"Then go ahead! Hey, this ruins are really evil, we've only been here for two or three days, and so many things have happened, shouldn't we come to the ruins? ”
"How can you not come? Do you think we can survive if we stay in Yanjia Village? Unless we are willing to give up the life of the Lotus Born Heavenly Maiden Yanyu, we may be able to survive by luck, but if we survive because of this, are we worthy of our conscience? ”
"Yes, giving up Yanyu is equivalent to giving up our beautiful life in the future, don't you want to see Yanyu become the queen mother one day, and then our whole village will go to the imperial city to live a good life?"
"Of course I want to live a good life, but I have to have a life to enjoy this blessing? Life is gone, what is the point of these so-called good days? I think it's imperative to find the book of heaven and hand it over to the other party. ”
"How can this heavenly book be in our hands? Could it be that the other party made a mistake? ”
"And even if the Book of Heaven is in our hands, we can't hand it over casually, right? What if this book of heaven is helpful for Yanyu to become a queen in the future? Wouldn't we have ruined the future of the rain again, and it would be equivalent to ruining our own hopes? ”
"Everyone, don't be impatient, let's wait for the old village chief to come and make a decision."
"Yes, no matter how much we quarrel, it won't help, and these dead people can't be resurrected, so it's better to find a way to get the villagers in the water first. What if there are still survivors? ”
"That's right! Come, let's work together, it's important to save people first. ”
……
After arguing wildly, the villagers surrounding the waterhole began to figure out how to recover the bodies from the water.
Since the villagers who remained near the cave were all old and young, women and children, and there were less than ten young and strong men guarding them, they had to go into the water to retrieve the corpses.
Unexpectedly, a young and strong man with good water quality and just jumped into the waterhole with a rope on his back, and only swam out two or three feet, he screamed, and countless blood gushed out from under his body, and soon spit blood in his mouth, and quickly sank, obviously there are unknown terrifying creatures lurking in the water.
Once someone jumps into a pool to recover the body, they will be attacked secretly and die.
For a moment, everyone looked at each other, and no longer dared to approach the edge of the pool, but could only watch as the young man sank into the water and disappeared.
Even Jun Buyu in Nalan Qiqing's arms and Yanyu in Yuan Xunshuang's arms were anxious, but they didn't know what to do.
For the first time, they are only babies at the moment, and even if they fly above the water, they don't have much strength to recover the corpses in the water, let alone deal with the terrifying creatures in the water.
Second, the villagers don't know that they have adult memories and can fly. Therefore, it is better not to expose it easily, otherwise it will cause panic among the villagers, and even treat them as demonic possession.
Of course, if you don't turn into a black-tailed leafhopper to salvage the corpse at this moment, it won't be a big problem, and maybe you can deal with the terrifying creatures in the water.
But the problem is that this frozen black-tailed leafhopper once killed during the heavenly pregnancy ceremony, and if the villagers were allowed to see Jun Buyu transform into a black-tailed leafhopper, it would be regarded as an evil enemy by the whole village.
At that time, his mother Nalan Qiqing and sister Yudie will be ostracized by the villagers, and it is not impossible that they will even be killed by the radical villagers.
As for Yanyu, although it has been inherited for a period of time, it is only scratching the surface, after all, a inheritance that takes at least ten years to accept it all is by no means something that can make a big change in one or two months.
Therefore, Jun Buyu and Yanyu are more than enough and not enough, and no one dares to act rashly before they think of a perfect plan.
He also stared at the corpse floating on the surface of the water with a worried face, and fell into a tangle.
And when the rain butterfly beside Jun Buyu saw Jun Buyu's solemn and tangled expression, he could also understand his mood at the moment.
In addition to understanding, I was also worried that if Jun Buyu didn't control himself well for a while, he would suddenly fly out to save people, and he would be in trouble.
So she quietly stayed by Nalan Qiqing's side, in case you didn't encounter rash action, she could stop it as much as possible.
Jun Buyu naturally saw Yu Die's every move and guessed her intentions, but he still decided to help the villagers, because there was obviously some kind of extremely fierce and terrifying creature in the water.
Even if the old village chief and them arrived after a while, it is estimated that they will not be able to deal with this unknown creature underwater.
A forcible siege will only cause unnecessary casualties to the villagers.
So he plans to meet this underwater monster and secretly help the villagers deal with this monster in order to avoid greater casualties.
After deciding, he quietly gave Yudie a gesture, signaling Yudie to inform Nalan Qiqing to leave here with him, although Yudie didn't understand what Jun Buyu meant, but still did so.
Since there are many villagers around Nalan Qiqing at this moment, Jun Buyu can't make a move that is not in line with a baby, that is, he directly said his thoughts to Nalan Qiqing, so he had to hint that Yudie told Nalan Qiqing that he wanted to leave here.
Because if he directly said his thoughts to Nalan Qiqing, he would inevitably be seen or heard by the surrounding villagers, and his secret would be exposed. Moreover, at that time, Nalan Qiqing was listening to the discussion of the nearby villagers, and she was also in deep thought, and she didn't notice that Jun Buyu in her arms was trying to talk to her.
So Jun Buyu had to take a detour, and the rain butterflies around him conveyed it was his only choice.
When Yudie said to Nalan Qiqing that she wanted to take Jun Buyu back to the cave, Nalan Qiqing reacted that Jun Buyu at this moment had completely adult memory, so she also wanted to take Jun Buyu back to the cave and find a secluded corner to ask for his opinion.
So, the family of three, while the other villagers were not paying attention, slowly walked towards the cave.
It's just that they didn't notice that after the smoke and rain not far away whispered a few words in Yuan Xunshuang's arms, their mother and daughter also quietly walked to a nearby wood......
