7. A witch is born
Stunned by a cacophony of noises. When she opened her eyes, she saw that there was a great light in the dungeon, and that the door leading to the outside was open, and the gate of the fence where she was being held was also open, and there were many people standing in front of her. The first to bear the brunt was Lu Li.
"You can get out of the way." A sergeant beside Lu Li said.
Ran remembered with contempt the experience of Xie Jingliang's drill with her last night. Xie Jingliang taught her so many methods. Later, she was sleepy, so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, maybe Xie Jingliang left when she was asleep. Thinking about the content of the drill, I was confident in contempt. Perhaps, she will really be able to save herself. She wants to listen to Xie Jingliang's words, and she can't cry anymore, and she can't be weak anymore. Hold your back tall and act like a real shrine maiden.
Lu Li's eyes were full of questions. Contempt. Uncle Xie is right, only by hardening up and not taking his threat seriously can he be liberated. She can't admit defeat in front of such a cold guy! She stood up proudly and walked out.
The sky was bright and the sun was shining beautifully. This ancient sun is the same as the modern sun. Squinting her eyes contemptuously, she saw that the outside of the cell was full of soldiers standing guard, but it left her a passage that led to the outside. Contemptuously passed through the side gate of the small courtyard, came to the compound, and out of the gate of the compound, there were soldiers standing outside. Outside the soldiers, two carriages were parked in the middle of the road, Xie Jingliang, Yazi, Erdan, and two middle-aged men stood beside the carriage.
Contemptuously followed the passage that the soldiers had opened, and strode forward. But she knew that her arrogance was disappearing, her legs were straight and weak, and she didn't believe that there would be good luck.
"Sister Alain!" "Sister!" Masako and Erdan let out timid screams. From their voices, they knew that they were suffering for the loss of their father, but they felt that Miran was not the one who killed their father, so they had doubts and some hope.
Ran ran over with contempt and hugged Masako and Erdan. She finally couldn't help it and choked up: "Your father, it's not me, it's not me......" She was a little incoherent, but she was in a hurry to confess, and she looked completely dizzy. Xie Jingliang shouted next to him: "Get in the car!" Then he breathed a sigh of relief and got into the first carriage.
Masako and Erdan sat with her, and the man sitting at the front of the car was the driver, while Xie Jingliang was sitting in the other car with another man. The carriage jolted and headed out of the city. Ignoring this, Lu Li was standing in front of the gate, looking gloomily at this side. No expression could be seen in his eyes.
"This cold-blooded bastard!" Contemptuously scolded in his heart. But she didn't scold resolutely, because she felt that Lu Li was like a mountain, which overwhelmed her.
A pair of hands stretched out next to him were Masako's hands. "Sister Alain!" Masako called her timidly. Looking closely at Masako, her eyes were red and swollen, and she had obviously cried bitterly. Contemptuously held her hand tightly, remembering her identity as a shrine maiden, and whispered, "I will help you find ...... Find the murderer's. ”
Masako's mouth was deflated, and she was about to cry, but she immediately shook her head and suppressed her crying. Only then did she realize that this little girl had a strong ability to restrain herself. Perhaps, the ancients saw too much death and could face such a sinister evil, right? And for yourself, what can't you do! She has to be strong, she has to be strong!
Contempt is much calmer.
looked at Erdan, he was silent, sat aside, and just looked at the houses that flashed by. When I met the soldiers, I kept a close eye on them, especially the simple and clumsy weapons that the soldiers held.
Masako said in a low voice, "Sister Alain, you really ...... It's true...... Can spells? ”
"Yes." Contempt became more firm, "Over there in the villa, have the altars been set up?" ”
"It's set, it's waiting for you!" Masako had a look of adoration on her face, "Sister Alain, can you really find the ore vein?" The people in our mountain villa, because they have no ore veins, don't know how to survive. If you can find the vein, we'll do it. ”
Remembering what Xie Jingliang had taught, he said with certainty: "Don't worry, Masako." As soon as I arrived at the mountain villa yesterday, I felt the great energy of the mineral deposits in the mountains, there are mines there, there must be mines! You and Erdan will definitely live well. ”
"That's great, the second egg can live!" Masako burst into tears.
Contemptuously felt Masako's concern for Erdan. It seems that the death of her father and mother made Masako officially take on the task of raising two eggs.
When the car was about to reach the villa, several fast horses came up from behind, and it was Lu Li with a few sergeants. Contemptuous. But Lu Li ran to him, turned over and dismounted, stood on the ground and bowed his hand to them: "I came to see your sacrifice." ”
Xie Jingliang also got out of the car and returned to the arch: "Then please!" ”
Contempt is reassuring. But she was very afraid of Lu Li now, and she felt frightened even when she looked at him, and she didn't know what action this cold guy would take next.
At the entrance of the villa, there were already many people standing, and when they saw the carriage coming, they bowed. When the carriage entered the villa, there was a stone altar in the middle of the villa, on which three torches were inserted, and the smoke from the burning drifted into the air.
"The ancients didn't understand environmental protection." Said contemptuously. These words seemed to be a comfort to her, and her heart was more relaxed.
On the altar, there is a plate of fruit, a plate of white buns, and a plate of dried fruits. These offerings were made with contempt. Yesterday evening, while discussing the details, he became calm and put forward many ideas that only young people of the present generation can put forward. Xie Jingliang wanted to put three sacrifices, so he said contemptuously, we are all contemptary, we should be ingenious, and we should not be limited by the ancient style of the ancients. Anyway, the ancients didn't know much, as long as they pretended to be witches, they believed whatever they pretended. Xie Jingliang later agreed with the contemptuous statement.
Defiantly got out of the car, and sister-in-law Jiang appeared from the side, led Miran into the alley, and came to a big mansion. This is where Sister-in-law Jiang lives. In the house, according to Contemptuous's request, a set of clothes worn by the shrine maiden was sewn. It was a red robe, a red hat worn by an ancient lady of the West, a crutch improvised from thick branches, and a black blindfold.
It's all contemptuous. Xie Jingliang said in surprise at the time: "Isn't this a foreign attire?" Like a magician in the West. ”
Said contemptuously: "Isn't this pretty?" ”
"Good, good!" Xie Jingliang praised: "You are really a girl in the 21st century. ”
Scornfully smiled bitterly.
At this moment, as soon as this suit was put on, Sister-in-law Jiang was stunned, and her mouth was slurking, but she didn't dare to say it.
Contemptuously dressed in this outfit and came to the altar. Everyone in the villa, as well as the sergeants brought by Lu Li, let out an exclamation. A few of the children even cried in fright and hid in their mother's arms. Only Lu Li did not make a sound. His eyes widened with contempt, and there was surprise in his expression.
Defiantly began to cast spells in front of the altar, and everyone fell silent.
Tell yourself in disdain, be calm, be calm, this is a momentous moment related to your life! She needs to be calm, she needs to take it in stride. Thinking like this, she really calmed down. She stood solemnly and held the crutch aloft. Her eyes were closed, and her mouth was full of words, but she was speaking English. He learned English very well, scored 90 points on the TOEFL test, and was very proficient in English. Because he was calm, he actually pronounced the rhyme.
The English she reads, translated in Chinese, is: "God forbid!" I came to ancient times by mistake, and I was forced to be a witch in desperation, please forgive the little girl! But in order to survive, I have to live, and eventually return to modern times, to my parents. I'm also doing good deeds now, which is to help the people in this mountain village reopen the mine. Actually, Uncle Xie has already found the ore vein, and I'm just performing. O Lord! Please forgive me for my sinful karma. Please also help me to get rid of the entanglement of this demon Lu Li! ”
In fact, she doesn't believe in God, ghosts and gods, and what she says is usually heard from various sources. Her voice was so loud that everyone at the scene was dumbfounded.
Xie Jingliang stood at the front of the crowd, and next to him was a man in his forties, named Qi Bo, who touched him lightly and whispered, "What did Miss Alan say, Woo Li Wala?" ”
Xie Jingliang was amused in his heart, and said, "She may be talking to God." ”
Qi Bo said: "The immortals are so hard to speak? ”
Xie Jingliang said: "Maybe! After a pause, he added: "The harder it is, the more it proves that it is an immortal!" ”
"Yes, yes!" A look of sincere admiration appeared on Qi Bo's face.
Defiantly stopped praying, and slowly turned around, the crutch slowly cutting a semicircle in the air. Her eyes were still closed, her head tilted slightly, her face tilted to the sky. She insisted on not following the tricks that Xie Jingliang taught her, neither jumping nor turning around in dissatisfaction, but slowly falling down the crutches to the ground very gracefully and civilly.
"The great river goes east, and the waves sweep away the romantic characters through the ages. To the west of the base, humanity is the Three Kingdoms Zhou Lang Chibi. The rocks pierced the air, the waves crashed on the shore, and thousands of piles of snow were rolled up. The country is picturesque, and there are many heroes at one time. Thinking about Gongjin back then, Xiao Qiao got married for the first time, and he was heroic and ......" contemptuously recited the words of Su Shi in the Song Dynasty.
He has a special hobby for ancient poems, and some of them are memorized by heart. These ancients in front of her, of course, don't know that the descendants of Lu Dao still have Tang poems and Song Ci, as well as heroes like Li Bai, Du Fu, and Su Shi, who have been passed down through the ages, so she can take them out casually and recite them like reciting English. However, when she used the Chinese language, she had to be careful, so her voice was so low that she couldn't hear everyone.
The prayer uncle beside Xie Jingliang was a nonsense basket, and he couldn't help but touch Xie Jingliang again: "What Miss Alan said seems to have changed again." ”
Xie Jingliang said: "She has talked to the immortals, of course she doesn't need to woo Li Wola anymore." She may be following the instructions of the gods right now, chanting spells and looking for mineral veins, and she may be able to find them soon. ”
Qi Bo was a little excited: "That's great! ”
The contemptuous crutch did not completely touch the ground, but stopped about ten centimeters above the ground. As she uttered the words, she slowly moved forward, and her head was about ten centimeters above the ground. Xie Jingliang had already explained the location of the mine to her in detail, and she walked in the direction of the mine. However, she was afraid of going wrong, and her eyes were already half-open and half-closed, so she could see the road in front of her.
A large crowd followed behind her.
I saw the mine in front of me, where there were several wooden shelves with hanging blue. Underneath the blue is a deep mine. Defiantly came to the entrance of the cave, stopped, and suddenly poked the crutch to the ground, and then the crutch quickly lifted up and pointed straight to the sky, her eyes closed again.
"God forbid! I finally found the vein. She spoke again in English. I am grateful for God's love for me and for providing me with such an opportunity. I want to live, to live, to get out of the predicament in front of me! If so, from now on, I will appear as the Almighty Goddess to show my brilliant career. Those who are behind me will be my subjects, and will follow me faithfully. I hope I will always be protected by God. ”
As he recited these absurd words with contempt, he suddenly felt that he was full of strength and pride. She seems to understand the psychological state of those who have great power. She's not afraid, she's not afraid of anything! Uncle Xie is right, only by being a witch can she be imaginative and invincible!
"Amen!" She was so arrogant that she howled in Chinese, and her crutch fell frantically and fell to the ground. She opened her eyes, looked around, and saw Xie Jingliang behind her. She said categorically: "The mine has been found, immediately organize people to excavate!" This vein is thirty ...... in the cave," she paused. According to the custom, she wanted to say "meter", that is, thirty-one meters, but this did not work, "meter" is the unit of measurement used in later generations. Besides, the vein is not at a depth of 31 meters. "No!" She immediately made a change, "Just thirty-one feet deep in this hole, digging to this side." She drew a straight line on the edge of the hole. Dig eleven zhang to this side, and you can see the vein. ”
Qi Bo shouted, "Did you really find it?" ”
Xie Jingliang reprimanded him: "What are you shouting nonsense? Quick, let people into the hole. ”
"It's good, it's good."
A few sturdy men have already been prepared, all with iron heads. They were separated several times, and sat down to hang the blue. Xie Jingliang asked Sister-in-law Jiang, Yazi, and Erdan to support him and return to the mansion where he lived, where a sumptuous meal had been prepared. Contemptuously busy all morning, before eating, and with a great change in mood, he immediately took off the costumes of those magicians and devoured them.
Masako cowered and leaned over to her, and said cautiously, "That vein ......"
Said solemnly and contemptuously: "I have seen the ore vein in the void. By the way," she suddenly remembered, "don't call me Alain in the future, that's the pseudonym I use on the road." My real name is Ranran, Qin Ran. In the future, you will call me Sister Contempt. Sister-in-law Jiang, you are the same, directly call me contemptuous. ”
"Good, good!" The two of them answered together.
Contemptuous and bold, I feel that I am not afraid of anything. She found the mineral vein and became a true god, what is she afraid of, is that Lu Li still looking for trouble with her?
She snorted her eyes, and suddenly felt that there was something wrong with Sister-in-law Jiang's eyes looking at her. Thinking about it carefully, Sister-in-law Jiang may be a little afraid of her, right? Perhaps, as Uncle Xie said, Sister-in-law Jiang is a spy sent by her grandson, and she is afraid of revealing her true face when she sees that she is so powerful?
Can you?
Sister-in-law Jiang went out, and suddenly felt that she was too proud? Because Xie Jingliang told her that Lu Li only temporarily let her come back today. Perhaps, Lu Licai doesn't care if she is a goddess or not, and still arrests her back to the cell, right?
The thought of the rat-infested dungeon shuddered with contempt.
