Chapter 51: The Patriarch of the Ran Clan 2
readx;
I was a little confused, I didn't know what was going on in front of me. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Not bad," the patriarch stopped laughing, "I'm not your patriarch..."
With a mask on his face, the 'patriarch' spoke in an urn-like voice, but the tone was no longer as strange as before, but similar to what we normally were... I suddenly understood that this person was pretending to be the patriarch to save us! But who is he...
"Yours, who is it?!" The leader snapped.
"I am—" The 'patriarch' paused, and suddenly raised his hand and pointed in a direction, "He! ”
All the Ran Min, including the leader, looked at the past in unison. At this moment, the 'patriarch' took out a knife from the sleeve of his robe, stepped to Xiang Feng, who was closest to him, and swung it down, cutting the rope on Xiang Feng's body.
The head and neck reacted, waved at us, and shouted, 'Wow, lala', and those Ran Min rushed over. Xiang Feng broke free from the rope and stood up, and the 'patriarch' raised his foot and kicked down a Ran Min who rushed to the front, and handed the knife to Xiang Feng's hand.
"Ah Feng, cut the master's rope first!" I shouted.
The rope was tied very tightly to the body, and Xiang Feng did not dare to cut like the 'patriarch', chopping wood. It took two or three cuts in a row to cut the master's rope. Just as I was about to come over and cut the rope on my body, a Ran Min pounced on me, picked up a torch, and smashed it down on my head with his life. I hurriedly tilted my head, but I couldn't hide my head, and at that moment a man suddenly jumped in front of me, and the torch slammed into his shoulder, burning his clothes. I took a closer look, and this person was none other than Master...
"Master!"
The master landed on the ground and rolled over, extinguishing the fire on his body, and after getting up, he punched and kicked his feet, knocking down the two Ran Min who pounced on Ling Jitian.
"Ah Leng don't move!" Xiang Feng said behind me.
Another Ran Min pounced, was slashed in the leg by Xiang Feng's raised hand, and continued to cut the rope. Finally, I felt that as soon as my hands were loosened, the rope broke, and I pulled the rope off, handed me the knife to the wind, grabbed one of the Ranmin who pounced, lifted it up and threw it out, and the Ranmin screamed and bumped into the other two Ranmin.
I rushed to Ling Jitian, and under the escort of Master and Xiang Feng, I cut several times before I cut Ling Jitian's rope. When I got up and looked over, I saw that these Ran people who had come over did not trap us in a circle like before. As for the 'patriarch', he was fighting with four or five people. In the chaos, that Boss Cao didn't know where to go.
Xiang Feng knocked down two more Ran Min, and the master pressed one of Ran Min's shoulders, jumped up, and after landing on the ground, grabbed the leader.
"Let them stop!" Master shouted.
The leader did not speak.
Xiang Feng didn't say a word, grabbed the knife from my hand, rushed away from the two Ran Min who were in the way, and chopped the leader's leg with a knife. The leader screamed, 'Wow lala' shouted something, and all those Ran people stopped.
The master grabbed the leader and put the knife around his neck to the wind, and we stood next to each other, and the 'patriarch' also came over, still wearing a helmet and mask.
"Who are you?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe..."
The 'patriarch' smiled, didn't say anything, and slowly turned his neck to look at the leader.
"Thank you for saving us," Master said.
The 'patriarch' waved his hand. I looked at him, and I wondered in my heart, judging from the tone of his voice after he was exposed by this leader, he was not from this ghost place, but from our 'world', so who could he be... Uncle Yang and Old Man Yang don't have such good skills, and if they are one of them, since they have been exposed as fake patriarchs, they will not pretend to be still wearing helmets and masks in front of us... Could it be that this person is from Boss Cao's gang? Then it's even more unlikely... So who is this man? …
I stared at this person and thought about it, when I heard Master call me, "Leng'er..."
"Huh?"
"Look where the guy with the surname Cao is."
"Oh."
Those Ran Min were all standing there, and I pointed to the leader, and said as I walked, "Don't move, whoever moves, will slash him..."
After turning around, I didn't find Boss Cao, this bastard didn't know where to go.
"Forget it, let's go." Master said.
"Where are we going, Master?" I asked.
"Come with me." Ling Jitian said.
"Hey." I said to the leader, "Tell them that no one is allowed to come with them, or if one of them is followed, he will slash you once, and two of them will slash you twice." ”
The leader glared at me hatefully, and then said to the Ran Min. After he finished speaking, Master said, go.
Ling Jitian and I walked in front, Master and Xiang Feng escorted the leader behind the hall, and the 'patriarch' walked last.
Worried that those Ran Min would eventually come in our direction, Ling Jitian first took us in a circle, and then decided on a direction and walked straight. As I walked, I suddenly felt as if there were droplets of water falling on my face.
Looking up, I asked in surprise, "Uncle Ling, will it rain in this place too?" ”
"Of course." Ling Jitian said.
After walking for a while, the rain gradually became heavier, and the sky above me was faintly white. The sound of the rain here sounds 'buzzing', as if it has an echo, it feels weird, and the rain breathes in the nose, and it is cold and cold.
The day dawned quickly, and it was only a little bright white before, and I could see people clearly soon. After walking for a while, it finally dawned. The rain was still falling, and from time to time large raindrops fell on the helmet of the 'patriarch' behind him, and they 'fluttered' for a moment. This man is our savior, and he refuses to say who he is, and he doesn't want to show us who he is, and we can't force it.
Looking around, the water is cloudy, nothing can be seen clearly, stepping on the gravel and withered grass, there is a feeling of walking in an ancient desolate land. If I hadn't been in this place myself, but had listened to the descriptions, I wouldn't have believed that such a place existed... I'm curious about how big this place really is and how it came to be...
"There...," Ling Jitian said.
I looked over and saw a building in the fog ahead. When I came to the front, I saw that this was a curved ruler-shaped building, the area was quite large, and the whole building was built on a stone pedestal more than one person high.
"What is this place for?" I asked, stunned.
"They store food in this place." Ling Jitian said.
"Storing food?"
I touched my head with my hand, and when I saw the scale and style of the building, I thought it was a temple.
At this time, the master and the others also followed, and the leader was slashed by the wind, and although the wound was pierced, a lot of blood was still shed. Although he was supported by Master and Xiang Feng, he was panting and his face was pale after walking such a long way.
"Why are you here?" I asked.
Ling Jitian looked at us, then pointed at the leader, "This person is in charge of the tribe's food and has the key to this place. ”
I nodded, looked at the chief, and then glanced at the 'patriarch', and saw him standing without saying a word, his gaze shining through the hole in his mask, so bright that I couldn't tell how old he was. As a sorcerer, I can roughly judge age based on the aura of the other person without looking at it or listening to it. But this person, I can't tell at all...
In the rain, the building stood in the rain and looked very desolate. I thought to myself, since we have tied this head and neck, it will be easy to do. This man may know about that 'ancient curse'. If we can get a way out of his mouth to break that curse, then we won't have to stay in this place anymore...
"Let's go." Master said.
The leader didn't dare to disobey, so he looked at us one by one, and was supported by Xiang Feng and the master to the left and right, and walked up the steps first.
The door of the building was locked with a circle of bronze chains, and the leader pulled out a strange, key-like thing, and inserted it into the keyhole, and the lock clicked open.
Pulling the chain off, 'clucking' opened the door and we walked inside. It's eerie, large and small clay pots, stacked high, and what is contained inside should be the kind of pickled meat. In addition, there is something like yam, as well as the skins of various animals.
Ling Jitian took a long breath and said, "You sit down and rest for a while, I'll go get some water and firewood and cook something to eat." ”
"Then you'll have to work for you." Master said.
Looking at Ling Jitian's back and going down the steps from the door, until he was out of sight, Master withdrew his gaze.
"Leng'er, what is the origin of this person?"
I looked at Master, then at Xiang Feng, and said word by word, "She is Ling Xiao's father, Ling Jitian..."
If it were me, I would suddenly hear such a truth, and I would definitely scream and jump. Although Xiang Feng and Master would not be like this, their expressions looked quite shocked, which was what I expected.
I looked at the 'patriarch' and saw him sitting against a jar, looking impassive, unable to see his expression because of the mask.
"Leng'er."
"Huh?" I withdrew my gaze.
"You're not mistaken?"
"What?" I was stunned.
"Is this person really Ling Jitian?" Master asked.
"yes, really."
"He...," Xiang Feng frowned slightly, "How did this happen?" Why is it here? ”
"Hehe...," I smiled bitterly, "Originally, I was asking, and he said to go and get me something to eat, but when I came back and told me, I saw that you and Ah Feng were besieged by those Ran people, so I hurried over with him..."
"Did you ask him anything else?" Master asked.
"Yes, about Ling Xiao."
"Tell me."
"Hmm—" I glanced at the patriarch.
"If you have something to say, then I can avoid it..."
