Chapter 5 The Ancient Tower Refines the Heart
The piece of carrion is gone, yes, really isn't there.
Zhong Wenbin was a little confused, who would steal this thing, is it Hu Er, so he hurriedly turned his head and asked the tavern owner, and the reply he got was that the kid paid for the wine and left.
In fact, from the moment he came into contact with that Hu Er, Zhong Wenbin understood that this guy was a profiteer, and a thief was a traitor, but he didn't expect that even the carrion was stolen, but fortunately, this guy also paid for the wine, otherwise he would have to be killed by the store for half his life today.
The world has been too chaotic these days, as a refugee, Zhong Wenbin is also quite content, since he has eaten and drunk enough, then find a place to sleep, and wait for Ming'er to continue to think about getting something to eat.
There is no way to go back to Sanyuan Town, and the big golden tooth and their group must still be looking for him everywhere.
Thinking of this, Zhong Wenbin simply prepared to leave here, as for where to go, he had also decided on this matter, so he went to the south, this year, the Northeast has been in turmoil, and the south is rich, and most of the refugees have gone to Jiangnan Rice Country to seek survival.
For the next three days, Zhong Wenbin wandered alone, drinking dew, stealing wild vegetables, carrying tattered bags, and seeing many refugees, but he was also at ease.
Until the evening of the third day, Zhong Wenbin followed a group of dozens of refugees to hide in a remote temple, this temple is called Shuiyun Temple, which has long been dilapidated, there is an ancient pagoda at the back, and there is only an old monk in the temple, who is kind enough to take in their group.
As usual, Zhong Wenbin habitually made some haystacks to cover his body, and then fell asleep on the ground, with the snoring of those refugees in his ears.
Until the third watch in the middle of the night, there was a sudden wind blowing in the broken temple, and at the same time there were footsteps, Zhong Wenbin thought it was a guy who was in a hurry to get up, but he didn't care, but gradually, he seemed to smell a strong smell of blood.
Subconsciously, Zhong Wenbin hurriedly got up, looked out, and vaguely saw a sneaky figure walking in front of the door.
I didn't care about it at first, but the figure seemed a little familiar, chubby, and a little obscene, Zhong Wenbin remembered a person, it was Hu Er, he was shocked, and hurriedly stood up and chased out.
The figure disappeared behind the broken temple, and after Zhong Wenbin chased it out, he also followed, and followed him on the path behind the broken temple, until he found that the figure was hidden in the grass, so he tiptoed up.
The guy had his back to Zhong Wenbin, and from the point of view of his figure, he was indeed the same as Hu Er, thinking of this, the anger in his heart came up, and he immediately pounced on it and pressed it to the ground.
"You meat thief, give me back." Zhong Wenbin pressed Hu Er's head into the dirt.
This guy was also taken aback, and when he heard that it was Zhong Wenbin, he was frightened: "Little brother, you should be quiet, otherwise we will both be finished." ”
Zhong Wenbin doesn't eat this: "Don't fool me, return my things." ”
Hu Er had a lot of strength, and after struggling, he pointed outside: "Look at that!" ”
At this time, Zhong Wenbin found that there was an ancient tower on the edge of this meadow, where the fire was bright, five bonfires were burning, and the ancient tower had six floors, and there was red light in each layer, which was very demonic.
But what really surprised him was that on the top of the ancient tower, there was a wooden tie with a person tied to it, it was Liu Youlan, and in front of the ancient tower, stood that Liu Xiangbao.
As soon as these two people appeared here, Zhong Wenbin became nervous and a little scared: "Why are they here?" ”
Hu Er struggled and got out of Zhong Wenbin's men: "The second master is going to lead the sky and thunder and burn the woman." ”
Liu Xiangbao was dressed in black at this time, holding a scepter in his hand, looking quite like a wizard, and around him, there were many heads, a total of eighteen, including the old monk.
Seeing this scene, Zhong Wenbin was shocked and said in a low voice: "What is he doing?" ”
Hu Er replied: "The second master used to be a sorcerer, and you have heard of shamanism. ”
When Zhong Wenbin heard it, he also understood what shamanism was for, to put it bluntly, it was a terrible sect in the Northeast, with astrological psychic skills, and even able to talk to ghosts and gods, as for the specific truth or falsehood, it is unknown.
That Liu Youlan was covered in blood at this time, but it seemed that there was no big problem, and her blue eyes kept staring in the direction of Zhong Wenbin, as if she had discovered their existence.
Above the ancient tower, a dark cloud gathered, because the sky was dark, but Zhong Wenbin found that the dark clouds gathered more and more, and there might be thunder at any time.
At this moment, Liu Xiangbao roared, pointed the scepter in his hand to the sky, and then stomped on the ground with his right foot, only to hear a "click", and a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and slashed straight at Liu Youlan.
"Ahh
A terrible scream echoed through the night.
Zhong Wenbin was so frightened that his skin was hairy, his hands trembled and he sat on the ground, and Hu Er yelled: "The second master wants to refine this woman and eat her heart." ”
It is also strange to say, the eighteen heads also cracked with a click, and blood came out of them, Zhong Wenbin returned to his senses and saw that Liu Youlan was split black by thunder, only the eyeballs were still blue.
"Tell me the truth, did they come for that piece of meat?" Zhong Wenbin could see at a glance that something was wrong.
Hu Er's eyes dodged, and he didn't seem to be able to hide it anymore, so he had to nod: "Yes!" ”
Zhong Wenbin had a vague intuition that Liu Xiangbao couldn't find this piece of meat, so he was in a hurry to make this move.
Just when the two of them were hiding in the dark and pondering, suddenly, another lightning bolt struck, Liu Youlan screamed again, her skin began to bleed, and her dark blue eyes were slowly fading.
Zhong Wenbin didn't believe in the existence of ghosts and gods from beginning to end, but seeing that Liu Youlan was hacked twice and didn't die, in addition to the hair in her heart, she was more sympathetic, and if she came again, she would definitely die.
In a hurry, Zhong Wenbin touched Hu Er's body.
"What are you doing, I don't have that hobby!" Hu Er hurriedly covered his clothes.
"Hand me the meat." Zhong Wenbin is not polite, this guy is not good.
"Little brother, don't, I'm afraid of itching!" Hu Er laughed as he spoke.
Outside, Liu Xiangbao also heard the voice, turned around and shouted: "Who?" ”
After Zhong Wenbin touched the carrion, he couldn't hide, so he simply walked out, Liu Xiangbao looked surprised, obviously didn't expect to meet him.
"Let me go, I'll give you this meat." Zhong Wenbin shook the meat in his hand.
Liu Xiangbao's eyes couldn't be taken off immediately, he looked excited, stopped the witchcraft in his hand, and stretched out his hand: "Give it to me!" ”
Zhong Wenbin hurriedly took two steps back and pointed to it: "Let her go?" ”
Liu Xiangbao's expression was gloomy, and he pointed at the scepter: "You are not qualified to bargain." ”
Indeed, Zhong Wenbin doesn't have any negotiation capital, the only thing he has is that worthless pity, and later, Hu Er is still hiding in the dark and doesn't dare to come out.
The situation is critical, above, Liu Youlan spoke, still in that cold tone: "Go, don't come back!" ”
Zhong Wenbin was also angry, and kindly saved people and let him go, and immediately became unhappy: "Sister, do you really want to die so much?" ”
Liu Youlan was silent for a long time, and nodded affirmatively: "Yes, let me die." ”
It's so rare that there are still people who want to find death in these years, Zhong Wenbin really can't figure it out, suddenly, Liu Xiangbao suddenly took out a gun and aimed it at him, and at the last moment, Hu Er rushed out of the shadows.
This guy was quick-eyed, and threw Zhong Wenbin to the ground, and the bullet hit the tree behind them.
Zhong Wenbin, who had picked up a life, had a blank mind, Hu Er picked up a head and threw it at Liu Xiangbao: "Don't leave yet!" ”
Zhong Wenbin gritted his teeth, looked at Liu Youlan above, and shouted at Hu Er: "You drag me down, I'll save people!" ”
Hu Er was angry: "You kid, Lao Tzu saved you in vain." ”
Zhong Wenbin ignored it, turned his head and rushed into the ancient tower, and then quickly rushed to the top of the tower.
There was a faint red lantern on each floor, revealing a strange aura, but Zhong Wenbin ignored these and rushed straight to the sixth floor, where there was a wooden ladder, and after he climbed up, he just poked his head out.
Seeing that the six-story building was quite tall, Zhong Wenbin's legs were weak, and he gritted his teeth and looked at Liu Youlan on the side: "You insist, I'll save you." ”
Liu Youlan didn't say anything, her whole body was black, and even her clothes were burned, after Zhong Wenbin climbed up, he carefully touched it, and he was about to get closer.
At this moment, only a boom was heard, and a lightning bolt fell.
