Chapter 344: The Rat King's Turmoil
I saw that a piece of his face looked like someone had gnawed off a piece of his teeth, which looked terrifying, and the remaining half was still intact.
He seemed to be frightened by my movements, and quickly covered his face with his hand.
I continued, "What's wrong with you?" ”
He muttered that he couldn't tell, so I turned to asking, "Did two of you enter the village in the morning?" ”
He looked at me timidly and said, "Yes, yes, in front." ”
I asked him to lead the way, and he was still skeptical of me at first, hesitating and not coming forward, and waited some time before he said to me, "I'll take you." ”
I followed him forward, but instead of the houses in the village, I walked in the mountains.
I thought to myself, could it be that the people in this village lived in the mountains and forests for some reason? I wanted to ask the person leading the way, but I looked at his face, and it didn't look like he would tell me. I had to walk patiently with him, and after walking for about half an hour, I saw a cave.
We walked towards the cave, which was dark and damp, but after a short walk, we saw the fire.
Then I saw a lot of people sitting in the cave, all with their backs to the cave, but the same thing, a piece of meat had been eaten on their faces, and it was strange for me that so many people were gathered here. In addition, the faces of these people look a little scary at this time.
I couldn't help but take a deep breath, and they all looked at me with a strange look in their eyes.
When we got to the innermost part, there was a fire, and the fire was burning in the cave, so that there was a glimmer of light here.
A group of people inside were surrounding the bonfire, and then I saw Cao Tianshi and the White Lady, and Cao Tianshi frowned at this time, talking to them. After I arrived, I called out to Cao Tianshi, and Cao Tianshi looked up and saw me, immediately stood up, and asked me, "Zhang Yan, why are you here?" ”
I also want to ask why Cao Tianshi came. Came to this remote place for no reason.
I said to Cao Tianshi, "I'm here to find you, what's going on here?" ”
Cao Tianshi asked me to come over, sit down first, and talk to me slowly.
I hummed and didn't say much, but at this time an old man stood up, said hello to me, and asked Cao Tianshi, who am I? Cao Tianshi said that I am his good friend. Then he introduced the old man to me and said, "This is an old patriarch of our Cao clan. ”
I was stunned for a few seconds, Cao clan?
How could Cao Tianshi's Cao clan be here?
I also glanced at the old man and found that he actually had qi flowing on his body, and it seemed that he was also a cultivator.
Cao Tianshi then said to me: "I met Second Uncle Cao during the day, and told me what happened here, saying that there was something wrong here, there was a thousand-year-old rat king, and he had to eat a piece of human face meat every day, and if he didn't give it, he would kill people, Zhang Yan, so let's come over to see if we can solve this disaster." ”
Cao Tianshi has said so, and I can't continue to ask more.
I pondered for a moment and asked Cao Tianshi, "Why didn't you call me?" ”
Cao Tianshi told me that he called me at that time, but he couldn't wake me up, so he guessed that I went to the underworld.
Cao Tianshi's analysis was similar, and I turned to the old man and said, "Where is the cave of the thousand-year-old Rat King?" ”
The old man shook his head to indicate that he didn't know, and then said, "But it will appear in the village at night, and the houses in the village at night are also inhabited by the descendants of the Rat King." ”
I thought to myself, is this a dove occupying a magpie's nest? Rats occupy the houses where people live.
Cao Tianshi stepped forward to support the old man and said, "Second uncle, don't worry, we will definitely handle this matter properly." ”
Second Uncle Cao said thank you, Cao Tianshi said that we are all a family, why do you say these kind words?
The White Lady was on the side and didn't say a word.
Patriarch Cao patted Cao Tianshi's shoulder in fear, and the atmosphere became a little heavy, but I also found a detail, Patriarch Cao's face was not missing.
We sat down, and Cao Tianshi and I chattered a lot, and I thought to myself that I should solve the matter in front of me as soon as possible and then go to Xinjing. I went out of the cave and looked outside, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the sky was gloomy and terrible.
It was soon evening, and it was dark.
The rain also stopped, and Patriarch Cao told me that at eight o'clock in the evening, the rats would gather in the village, and we would also go there when the time came, and let the rat king choose one person to eat.
Cao Tianshi became very angry and said, "Tonight is the time for it to die. ”
Now the time is seven o'clock, and I said to Cao Tianshi, I'm going to pee.
Cao Tianshi told me to go and come back quickly. I walked out into the woods and shouted out to the Lord of the Land. shouted two or three times in a row before the land lord came out.
When the land lord came out and saw me, he immediately knelt on the ground with a pop and said, "Little one to meet the Wheel King, I don't know what you have to say to the Wheel King?" ”
I asked the land lord, "Is there a thousand-year-old rat king in the local area?" ”
The land lord was stunned for a moment, and said to me in a somewhat puzzled tone: "Back to the Wheel King, there has always been a rat plague here, but the thousand-year-old Rat King, the little one has never heard of it. ”
I hummed? The tone was puzzled.
The land lord thought I was angry, so he immediately knelt down and said to me: "Wheel King, did the lower official say the wrong thing?" ”
I said no, are you sure?
The land lord said: "Sure, there should be none, if there is a thousand-year-old rat king, the lower officials will definitely go to the underworld to return." ”
I said yes. The land lord then asked me, "Wheel King, do you have any other commands?" ”
I said no. After the land lord said goodbye, I returned to the previous cave entrance, and Cao Tianshi said to me, Zhang Yan, why did you pee for so long?
I asked Cao Tianshi not to talk nonsense, at this time, this group of people looked a little gloomy, probably going to see the so-called Millennium Rat King. But there is no Millennium Rat King at all, and the Lord of the Land will definitely not dare to lie to me. That may be Patriarch Cao lying to us.
But why lie to us?
Everyone carried torches and walked towards the village, and when they reached the entrance of the village, they found rats waiting at the door, and these rats were not small in size, not much different from the shrunken red timber wolf, and each mouse looked very fat.
When we arrived, the rat actually spat out and urged us to hurry up and not waste time.
Cao Tianshi was almost going crazy, but I grabbed Cao Tianshi and asked Cao Tianshi not to act rashly.
I said to Cao Tianshi, "Help me hold my body, my soul needs to leave my body." ”
Cao Tianshi asked me, "Are you going to the underworld again?" ”
I said almost. I didn't tell Cao Tianshi where to go, otherwise maybe he would have something bad going for him later. After I finished talking to Cao Tianshi, the soul immediately left the body and entered the room.
The rats stood upright, like soldiers.
I went straight to the innermost part and soon saw a much bigger mouse, still wearing, a nice sweater. At first glance, it is high-grade.
When I got inside, I showed up so that the rats could see me.
When the rat saw me, he was a little surprised at first, but he quickly adjusted up and said to me, "Bold, how did you get in?" Get out of here for this king. ”
It was full of momentum, and I began to release the qi from my body, so that it could see the situation clearly, and after the qi was released, the Rat King asked me, "Who are you?" ”
I said to the Rat King, "Of course it's the one who wants your life." ”
When the Rat King heard this, he immediately wanted to run away, but I quickly manipulated the water curtain, and the water curtain blocked the house, and it was impossible for it to get out. It slammed the window in a panic, and even tried to make a hole to get out, but to no avail.
It could be that the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, and it shot directly at me. I punched it and slammed it into the wall.
At this time in my heart, I made a judgment, he is not the Millennium Rat King, at best he is a little cultivated rat, I walked towards it, it was also afraid, and immediately knelt in front of me, begging me: "Please, don't kill me, I know it's wrong." ”
I asked, "What is wrong with you?" ”
The Rat King said to me, "I shouldn't have come out to plague humanity, I deserve to die, I'm guilty." ”
As he was talking, there was a knock on the door. I motioned for the Rat King to speak directly, and the Rat King asked in a strange voice, "Who is outside the door?" ”
