Chapter 8: Failure in the assessment

"You've been poisoned by the snake demon."

Ziyu replied simply, reaching out to pick up the small half bowl of rice that had been knocked over on the ground.

If you don't guess wrong, the snake demon venom is in the meal, and Ziyu is not afraid of the snake demon venom, so she doesn't feel it when she eats the meal, but Liu Huan and the others are different, they will ingest the snake demon venom in the meal three times a day, and the little bit will add up, and finally they will be completely captured.

Zi Yu finally frowned rarely, she raised her head to look at Liu Huan, but she had already begun to wander into the world. The plan for today is to send Liu Huan away quickly, she doesn't want to live a life where Liu Huan eats a meal and relieves her snake venom.

Liu Huan's face turned a little pale when she stared at her, but she didn't know what to say, so she held back for a long time before asking, "What should we do?" ”

Hearing this, Ziyu returned to her senses and said sincerely: "I don't know." ”

“……”

Ziyu really didn't know what to do next, she couldn't contact Ling Sushuang now, and the matter was a little tricky, she didn't dare to act rashly, the only way she could think of was to wait for the opportunity.

"Am I not going to be able to eat what they send me in the future?" Liu Huan asked with a white face.

Zi Yu shook her head, thinking deeply, Liu Huan thought she had a good idea, and asked expectantly, "Do you have any solution?" ”

"No, I'm wondering if my hand will hurt if I give you snake venom three times a day."

“……”

Liu Huan felt that it was better for him to keep his mouth shut.

Because he had to wait until the next day to get a chance to go out, Ziyu rested with Liu Huan that night.

Before going to bed, Ziyu tried to contact Ling Sushuang through the jade pendant, but in vain.

Zi Yu contacted Ling Sushuang in the afternoon of the next day, and at this time, Liu Huan had eaten less the night before, and he didn't dare to eat breakfast and lunch because of snake demon venom, so he was hungry and had a stomachache, and he had just been put to sleep by Zi Yu.

Zi Yu restrains snake venom herself, so she eats as usual, but Liu Huan is just an ordinary mortal, she doesn't want to be poisoned, so she keeps refusing to eat, so it's not okay to be hungry.

So when she contacted Ling Sushuang, the first thing she asked was if she could rescue Liu Huan.

Ling Sushuang's answer was naturally no.

In fact, Ziyu had already guessed that it would be this answer, and she didn't have any other emotions after hearing this answer. The Scarlet Song Sect is now extremely strict with people, and if there is one person missing out of thin air, it will definitely attract attention, and it is not practical to replace it with a dummy with a stand-in.

The right protector hasn't appeared yet, and I don't know what level of his cultivation is, and I don't know how to assess it, if Liu Huan is rescued, if the dummy is discovered at that time, the matter will be even more serious, and it will even affect the entire plan.

What's more, after closing Ziyu, their courtyard has long been spelled, forming an invisible net, if there is a spell through this net spell or someone with a spell approaching, this spell will be touched, and the person who is under the spell will know it.

If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, Ziyu still understands this truth.

"Then, can you only let Liu Huan continue to eat the food they sent?"

"Yes, and don't detoxify her until the results of the assessment are out. Otherwise, if she shows her feet during the assessment, this matter may be even more troublesome. ”

Zi Yu sighed when she heard this, glanced at Liu Huan, who was still frowning in her sleep, and didn't say anything more.

After communicating with Ling Sushuang that day, Zi Yu took the opportunity to leave the room where Liu Huan was, and Liu Huan also followed Ling Sushuang's words, honestly began to eat the food sent by those people, and let himself lose consciousness and be controlled by snake venom.

In this way, after another two days, Ziyu finally waited for the news that the right protector had arrived in Yangzhou Scarlet Garden.

The assessment is scheduled for the day after the arrival of the Right Protector.

Ziyu originally wanted to go to Liu Huan to talk about this, but when she thought of Ling Sushuang's previous entrustment, she had to endure it, and after dinner, she rested early to prepare for the next day's assessment.

The next day was sunny and the weather was surprisingly good. After Ziyu and the group finished breakfast, they were taken outside the house by the guards in red to wait for the assessment.

Because the people in the four rooms were driven out, the courtyard was a little crowded for a while, and Zi Yu took a rough look, and there were probably more than sixty people locked up here.

Because except for Ziyu, the other girls were all captured by the snake demon venom, so the courtyard was very quiet. It didn't take long to see Aunt Jin sitting on a bench being carried, and a group of more than a dozen people descended from the sky.

The dozen or so people were dressed in red, veiled, and with an evil aura coming out of their bones, they thought they were the teachers of the Scarlet Song Sect.

As soon as the dozen or so people landed, they were busy in front of the courtyard, and two black wooden chairs were placed in the large unoccupied space in the courtyard, separated by a thin layer of red veil. Outside the veil were three rows of waist-high square tables, each with a small porcelain basin on each table, and someone was pouring water into the basin.

Ziyu couldn't understand what they were going to do, but she had a vague premonition. This premonition was even stronger after the Dharma Protector came.

The two Dharma protectors came after the courtyard was properly arranged, and the methods of coming were also extremely discreet.

The dozen or so people who came from the courtyard all completed their respective tasks, lined up in two columns and respectfully retreated behind Aunt Jin, and Aunt Jin got up lazily.

At the moment when Aunt Jin stood up, the top of the small courtyard was suddenly enveloped by a black cloud, and two dark red lights quickly fell from the clouds into the red gauze tent, and a faint mist suddenly filled the courtyard.

The mist quickly dissipated, the black cloud in the middle of the sky had disappeared, and the small courtyard returned to its brightness, and the warm sun fell in, as if the previous ones never existed.

I saw that Aunt Jin had already led a group of people to kneel down in front of the red tent at this time, bowed her head respectfully and shouted in unison: "Welcome to the left protector, welcome the right protector." ”

Zi Yu'an stood in the crowd, staring ahead with empty eyes, looking no different from the sixty or so little girls who were controlled by the snake demon venom, but in fact, Zi Yu's heart was very uneasy.

She felt a strong snake demon aura.

Immediately, the red gauze tent was lifted, and two men dressed in dark red clothes walked out one after the other, their faces were bloodless white that never saw the light of day, and their narrow eyes were even more vicious.

One is the left protector of the Scarlet Song Sect who fought with Ziyu in the Scarlet Garden in Changxiao Town before, and the other is the right protector of the Scarlet Song Sect.

The two walked out and stood still, waved to let the people kneeling on the ground get up, and then slowly spoke: "Then, let's start the assessment." Aunt Jin, you should monitor carefully, don't go wrong. ”

After the right protector finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the red gauze tent, and the left protector looked around the courtyard, and after making sure of it, he also followed.

Aunt Jin changed her previous laziness, and her face was full of seriousness. After the two Dharma Protectors entered the tent, they turned around and beckoned.

The dozen or so people who had come with Aunt Jin before each stood at the square table with a dagger in their hands, and the twelve red-clothed nurses each led a girl to stand at the square table.

Take blood and melt water. Thinking of the Scarlet Song Sect searching for fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls everywhere, Ziyu suddenly understood what they wanted to do, and she was a little nervous for a while.

This is an evil method she had seen in a book before, that is, the blood of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old human girl was dripped into a specific spell water, if the blood and the spell were combined, it meant that the person's soul could be used by the spellcaster, and as for what it was used, it depended on what kind of spell the spell caster's spell was.

Although Zi Yu didn't know what the Scarlet Song Sect was doing to find so many special souls, she also vaguely sensed that things were not as simple as Ling Sushuang said.

And the first batch of people has just been examined in the hospital. The basin infused with the blood that conformed to the spell immediately shone with a slight glow of fluorescent red, strange and beautiful.

The owner of the blood was immediately sent to the room on the left by those who were waiting on the side, and the girls in front of the basin without the fluorescent light were taken to the other side.

Of the twelve, only one had blood that matched the spell.

Zi Yu did not hesitate at all, and took advantage of the fact that the second group of people was taken away, pinching and controlling a girl standing beside her, and slashed the girl's palm with her backhand, so that the secret technique drew some blood and then forcibly used the magic to force it into her left wrist.

After doing this, Ziyu carefully used the trick for the girl to temporarily stop the bleeding and hide the wound.

Fortunately, the left and right protectors were in the red gauze tent far away from her, and they didn't notice the situation on her side, so that Ziyu successfully "changed her blood" for the time being.

Zi Yu is a demon, and the blood must conflict with that spell, fortunately, when she was in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, she liked to read some messy books, and one of them mentioned this evil art, so she thought of introducing some mortal blood to fool her around.

After doing this, the fourth group of people has been inspected to take away the fifth group of people, and Ziyu happens to be the penultimate person in the fifth group, and it is relatively far away from the location of the red gauze tent, as long as you are careful, the two snake demons should not be aware of it.

Zi Yu pretended to be sluggish and stopped at the table with the nurse, stretched out her left wrist as ordered, and after a burst of pain, blood flowed out and fell into the basin.

Zi Yu was extremely nervous, and waited for a while but never waited for the red light to shine out.

Immediately, Ziyu was taken to the group of people who had not passed the "assessment".

Zi Yu was secretly annoyed in her heart, she didn't calculate that the assessment was like this, so that she had no way to deal with it at all, if she hadn't accidentally seen the blood induction technique in Ten Thousand Demon Mountain before, it is estimated that she would not have lost the election but directly exposed her identity at this time.

The odds of this kind of blood test are not big but not small, and ten of the more than sixty girls have passed the assessment. It's just that Ziyu is more unlucky, and the girl who was standing next to her and borrowed blood from her happens to be one of the losers.

Ziyu was a little discouraged, and cheered up after complaining in her heart, and she didn't know if Liu Huan had ever been assessed. Thinking like this, Zi Yu searched for Liu Huan's trace in the crowd.
