There was still a faint white smell on the surface of the lake, which was produced by the entrenchment of the souls of those animals, and I walked along the lake indifferently, not realizing the strange smell here.

I set up a formation in the southeast direction, and if there is an evil qi in the future, I will immediately receive a sense, and the formation will immediately attack it and imprison it.

At 2 o'clock, I raised my head and looked at the sky, there were only three or five stars, the moon hid in the clouds, revealing the hazy moonlight, the white air on the lake was thicker, and as soon as the wind blew, the surrounding grass and trees made a "swish" sound, and subtle changes have begun to form.

The rune paper in my hand was redrawn by me before, and it was blessed with thirty percent of mana, which made the already powerful rune paper mana a few percent higher.

Once the opponent's demon appears, I can directly hit it to the ground.

At ten o'clock, a layer of fog filled the surroundings, and the dry and cold feeling almost tore my body apart, and I exhaled, and immediately there was a white blank in front of me.

I stood on the edge of the lake, carefully observing the situation on the surface of the lake suddenly.

Suddenly, the lake at my feet "boomed" a few times, and a few black shadows emerged from the lake, and I immediately roared and threw out an ordinary rune paper in my hand, but the rune paper hit the black shadow opposite, but it fell to the ground in a flutter, and the mana failed?

The other party was against the light, and I could only see clearly, it was a tall black shadow, and I couldn't see his form clearly.

I took out another piece of talisman paper, and was about to throw it at him again, when suddenly a gust of wind rushed towards me, I dodged and dodged, but was hit in the chest by a metal object, a sharp pain hit, I was caught off guard and took a few steps back, the metal was very heavy, and it hurt in the chest.

As soon as I was on my feet, a rope fell from the sky and wrapped it around my neck, and then tightened so tightly that I felt like I was almost suffocating.

Fuck, this demon would use this?

The chaotic consciousness lasted only a few seconds before I fainted in a daze, the rope so tight that it almost cut my throat.

In a daze, I felt like I was drowning in water, the pressure of the water and the cold water irritated my nerves, I couldn't open my eyes, closed my eyes and cast an out-of-body spell, the spell was not cast smoothly, and it took 4 consecutive repetitions for my soul to leave the body.

I was suspended in mid-air and looked down, and I was amazed.

I was thrown with a rope around my neck in the lake, and several big men surrounded me, one of whom kept pressing my back into the lake with his hands, trying to drown me alive, but every other moment he would grab me a little more and make me barely breathe air, and it was obvious that he was not trying to kill me directly, but to make me collapse physically and mentally at the same time in agony.

And these big men are not demons, they are Rong people, and the iconic furs they wear and the special decorations of ethnic minorities are too conspicuous.

A chill hit, it turned out that they really wanted to put me to death as an intruder, their xenophobia had reached an outrageous level, was this sent by that bastard Tutu Jiwumu?

I was completely wrong in my judgment just now, and the layer of fog that rises around me is a natural mist and frost produced by cold weather, and has nothing to do with demons.

When I threw out the first piece of rune paper, I was doomed to be punished for foolishness.

Not to mention anything else, the perseverance of this Rong people is really amazing, this cold day actually dived shirtless into the lake to wait for me to approach, and then subdue me, it seems that they have long known my whereabouts, or they have been following me for a long time, so they have laid an ambush here in advance.

However, they didn't know that I was coming here tonight, and they were probably determined to wait here for me to take the bait, and even if I didn't come today, they would come here every day for a long time to ambush and burrow into the lake after hearing the movement.

I had to use my mana quickly, first use a spell to control them, and then get my flesh out of the lake, or I would have to go to the hospital for a few days, stimulated by the cold lake water, plus the damage to my organs and body caused by drowning, it was enough to choke.

However, my physical body was imprisoned in the water, and my own flesh was very weak, and I couldn't use any mana after trying for a long time, and in the end, my own already insufficient essence and vitality were even more scarce, and I fell to the ground from mid-air, lying on my back and gasping for breath.

I never thought that I would fall into such an embarrassing situation, usually my body is imprisoned, then I can use out-of-body spells to save myself, but this time I was completely pressed into the lake by them, imprisoning my mana.

They didn't know that I was a magician, but this rough behavior indirectly helped them a lot.

The flesh is oppressed by water, this is really a big taboo!

At this moment, I can really describe it as angry, I am really ashamed, I thought that I could kill demons with a heavy responsibility, but I didn't expect that I was about to die in the hands of a few Rong people.

I tried to use my last breath to try my mana again, but I didn't expect that suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out of my mouth, and I became confused in an instant.

The men not far away were still loudly communicating in their language, taking turns pressing me into the water and then grabbing me.

I'm going to fuck you, my lord, I've become a terrible ghost, first I'll come to settle accounts with a few of you, and then that fool Tutu Jiwumu.

At this moment, the sound of cars came from far and near, and I tried to open my eyes, and the car was already near.

In the dim light, I saw the blue and white bars on the body, this is a police car!

I was amazed, and soon the car door opened, and a medical staff in a white coat hurriedly walked down, followed by Xiao Yuan, and they walked quickly to stop a few big men, but the big men obviously didn't buy it, and got into a loud argument with them.

"Stop!" A majestic roar came from the direction of the police car, and everyone was stunned.

In my blurred vision, I saw that the back of the person walking towards everyone was the tall Tutu Jiwumu, what was he doing?

The sound of them communicating in the Rong language sounded faintly in my ears, I couldn't understand it, I could only hear the occasional words spoken by Xiao Yuan.

"He's not a bad guy, we're going to take him to the hospital for first aid, he's going to die."

"Now that the deputy director has spoken, you should stop being stubborn, this is a crime."

I can't believe that Tutu Jiwumu actually came to save me, and he also came forward in person, probably because he was afraid that Xiao Yuan would not be able to handle it.

I misunderstood, these big men were not sent by him to kill me.

Consciousness suddenly broke off.

I don't know how long it took, but I heard a familiar voice in a daze, "Stinky boy, you almost died this time, you know?" ”

I was startled, and a spirit opened its eyes and jumped up, and it was You Lao standing in front of me, who was looking at me with reproachful and distressed eyes.

I immediately blushed, "Master, why are you here?" I, I'm fine. ”

"And said it's okay, you almost died, if someone hadn't saved you in time, you wouldn't be able to return to the sky if you used any mana." You Lao sighed deeply with his hands behind his back.

I was so guilty that I was too scared to speak.

You Lao walked up to me and patted me on the shoulder, "I reminded you before, you must not be emotional when judging a problem, you must exclude feelings, otherwise it will seriously affect your judgment, this time for a girl, you ran here regardless of the persuasion of others, in fact, a lot of things happened in this process, even you feel that there is no need to insist on it, but you still insist on staying here, this is a very profound lesson, you have to keep it in mind." ”

I opened my mouth, and it took a few seconds before I mustered up the courage to say, "Master, I was wrong, this time I was really sloppy and blind, I feel that Xue Xiaxia is here, and the clues I found have actually been overturned by myself, and I will definitely not make such a mistake again in the future." ”

You Lao took a deep breath, raised his head and stomped his feet, "If you don't fight like this again, then you may not be so lucky next time, you are a very talented child, I spent all my efforts to cultivate you, don't let me down, don't live up to yourself, understand?" ”

I'm so ashamed that I was so stupid this time.

"After you wake up, you must cultivate immediately, don't think about being lazy for a week, otherwise your mana will regress a lot, and your essence and vitality will not be able to keep up."

"Yes, Master, I will definitely cultivate as soon as I wake up."

"Also, after you wake up, you don't have any more obsessions, hurry back, that girl is not here, you have to learn to use rational thinking to eliminate these possibilities."

Looking at Old You's stern gaze, I felt a warmth and emotion in my heart, "Yes, Master, the disciples follow the teachings." ”

You Lao sighed again, "This shows that you are very kind and emotional, but remember, as an exorcist, you must not have too many feelings, and sometimes you must be cold-blooded." ”

I nodded heavily, and You Lao waved his hand, turned around and disappeared.

"Do you want water?"

Xiao Yuan's voice sounded in my ears, I opened my eyes suddenly, and I was greeted by his pair of dark circles, I looked around at a snow-white color, and the smell of disinfectant water, I was lying on the hospital bed in a hospital gown, and there was a drip on the back of my hand.

"You changed my clothes for me?" I exclaimed, and a great embarrassment hit my heart.

Xiao Yuan glared at me, "When I rescued you, you were soaked, could it be that you came to the hospital wearing this clothes?" I changed it for you, how? ”

I smiled embarrassedly, "It's nothing, I just feel embarrassed." ”

"Cut, you still think I'm a guy, guy, think less about what you don't have, if you knew I'd ask a beautiful nurse to change it for you."

"Then why don't you please? I can't ask for it. ”

Xiao Yuan patted me, "Okay, don't be poor here, you almost died this time, fortunately, the deputy director received the news that you were probably controlled by the Rong people, and he immediately called us over." ”

"Who told him I was in danger?" I asked, suspiciously.

Xiao Yuan sighed helplessly, "Let me tell you this, that day, the deputy director asked you to leave Yuelonggang immediately, and he arranged for someone to follow you secretly, as for who it is, I won't disclose it, I found that you didn't leave at all, but went deeper into other places, and entered the investigation, the deputy director was very angry, originally thought that if you didn't leave today, he would take compulsory measures, but I didn't expect you to be almost killed by them last night." ”

I was surprised, and suddenly a little embarrassed, dare to love the eyes of the deputy director has been secretly monitoring me in the past few days, I don't know it, and I make decisions blindly, but his secret surveillance saved my life this time.

"I didn't expect this, thank you for saving me." I said sincerely.

Xiao Yuan showed a constipated expression, "Okay, don't say such things, the deputy director is actually not as ruthless as you think, many times his arrangements are very reasonable, you can't understand, but you can't think of him as a bad person." ”

I smiled awkwardly, "Your deputy director has a big temper, and I did regard him as a big brother with the nature of the underworld for those words I said that day, but I really thank him this time, and I will go to the office with you later to thank him." ”

Xiao Yuan waved his hand again and again, "You stop, don't go and thank him, he doesn't need your thanks, and he doesn't want to see you again, this is his original words, and he has already gone on a business trip, you rest for two days, if it's okay, go back quickly, don't trouble yourself again." ”

I frowned, and a bitterness welled up in my heart, sometimes I think of people's hearts too narrowly, their so-called xenophobia is just a kind of self-protection, because they have special historical roots, so their thinking cannot change so quickly, I use my own thinking to judge that they are indeed a little excessive.

I didn't linger and insisted on leaving the hospital after the drip.

Xiao Yuan sent me to the train station, at this time he hadn't slept for a long time, I saw that his eyes were almost open, and I felt very guilty and moved, "Thank you, it's my honor to be able to meet you as a friend this time, go back quickly, take a good rest, and I'll invite you to dinner next time." ”

"I have to be on duty in the afternoon!" He smiled, but there was no reluctance, he really loved his job.

"And that incident, those locals, don't hold them accountable, this is what the deputy director asked me to tell you, I hope you can understand, as the Rong people's thoughts, they really reject outsiders, afraid that outsiders will take away their familiar homeland, and the harm and torture you have suffered......"

"Don't worry, since I'm standing here now, I don't think of retaliating again, and I thank them for teaching me a lesson, if a person doesn't love his homeland anymore, it's really meaningless to live in this world."
