"Hey, what's wrong with this summer mandarin duck?" Li Xiaohui walked up from behind and looked at Xia Yuanyang with some surprise.

I glanced at the animal skin in Li Xiaohui's hand, and hurriedly said: "Xiaohui, don't mess around with the animal skin on the head of this summer mandarin duck, this situation looks a little weird, let's be careful." ”

Li Xiaohui glanced at me and muttered, "I'm not stupid, but the dead hooligan looks like he was suppressed by this animal skin, just like those Taoist priests in Hong Kong movies who stick talismans on zombies' heads." ”

I was woken up by Li Xiaohui's words, I really don't know the strange runes on this animal skin, it may be the ancient inheritance of their Qingyi Qiang, but as Li Xiaohui said, this animal skin looks like the function should be similar to our Taoist talisman, according to normal circumstances, we only need to remove the animal skin on the head of this summer mandarin duck, and he will wake up.

But why is Xia Mandarin Duck suppressed here by someone sticking to animal skin, if you guess correctly, nine times out of ten the person who did this is the weird Xia Lei, but as Xia Yuanyang's grandfather, he suppressed his grandson on the bed with animal skin, and even sealed the door, what is his purpose, is there anything strange about this Xia Mandarin Duck?

"Zixuan, is this the summer mandarin duck you are talking about?" Teacher Jia walked up and looked at Xia Mandarin Duck with a solemn face, with a thoughtful look on his face.

I nodded and asked, "Teacher Jia, the situation is very strange now, if we want to find out the situation in this Qiang village, do we have to wake him up, but I'm a little scared, once the animal skin on the head of this summer mandarin duck is torn, something uncontrollable will happen!"

Teacher Jia pushed his glasses, and he said to me, "What do you think of Xia Yuanyang?" ”

I was stunned, although I didn't understand what Teacher Jia meant, but I still tried to recall the things with Xia Yuanyang, from the little girl who fought together on the shore of Baizhang Lake, to the angry rebuke of Zhuge Jun in the Qiang village, the image of Xia Yuanyang gradually became clear in my mind, I said: "He should be quite righteous, I was caught by Zhang Xiuxiu, he didn't run away, and used the Qiang people's magic to drive Zhang Xiuxiu away." Then it should be quite filial, at that time in this house, Zhuge Junyi insulted Xia Lei, and this Xia Mandarin Duck broke out immediately. ”

"He's still a dead rascal, squinting!" Li Xiaohui added a sentence next to her, and suddenly I heard that my head was full of black lines, but I didn't expect her to remember that Xia Yuanyang looked at her breasts.

Teacher Jia nodded, and then asked, "Then do you think you can beat this summer mandarin duck with your strength now?" ”

I thought about it, now that I have been nourished by Jiaozhu, the strength on my body is amazing, this Xia Mandarin Duck will never be my opponent except for using the secretary of the Qiang people, and in this narrow room, once there is any change, I can also preemptively control him.

I somewhat understood what Teacher Jia meant, and said: "With Xia Yuanyang's character, he shouldn't do anything with us, and even if he does, I'm sure to control him." ”

"You decide." Teacher Jia said.

I gritted my teeth and asked Li Xiaohui and the others to step back, and then I pulled off the animal skin on Xia Yuanyang's head with my left hand, and at the same time, my right hand reached out like lightning and grabbed Xia Yuanyang's neck. As long as he moves the slightest, I'm sure I'll be able to restrain him in an instant.

After the summer mandarin duck was torn off by me, his closed eyes moved and slowly opened, but what made me feel strange was that there were tears flowing out of the summer mandarin duck's eyes when they opened, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he exclaimed excitedly: "Grandpa, don't!" ”

I was stunned for a moment, and the right hand that grabbed Xia Yuanyang's neck involuntarily let go. And Xia Mandarin Duck suddenly stood up from the bed, and when he saw a few of us, he immediately shouted: "What about my grandfather, have you seen my grandfather!" ”

Several of us looked at each other at once, but I said, "When we came, we saw that the door of your house was closed, and there was a skin on it, and when we came in, we found that you also had a skin of the same kind on your forehead, can you tell us what is going on?" ”

I raised the animal skin covered with strange runes in my hand and waved it at Xia Yuanyang, hoping to get an answer from his mouth.

But what I didn't expect was that as soon as Xia Yuanyang saw the animal skin in my hand, he suddenly hugged his head and cried, and said bitterly: "Grandpa, why are you suffering?" I am also a descendant of the Tsing Yi Qiang people! ”

I was stunned, and before I could ask again, this summer mandarin duck suddenly stood up, and he ran out of the house as soon as he pushed me and Teacher Jia away. A few of us hurriedly chased him out, and as soon as we got out of the gate, we saw Xia Mandarin Duck standing in the courtyard at the moment, looking up at the dark clouds rolling in the sky not far away.

"Xia Mandarin Duck, what the hell is going on? Tell me, maybe I can help you! I yelled at Xia Yuanyang, feeling that this matter was getting more and more complicated.

Xia Yuanyang turned his head to look at me, with a trace of sadness on his face, and said slowly: "You guys go, before that thing comes out, you can leave quickly, this matter is not something you can get involved in." ”

That thing?

My heart moved, and a faint thought flashed through me, and I hurriedly asked, "Xia Mandarin Duck, what does that thing mean?" It's only been a day, what happened, where did Grandpa Xia go? ”

At this moment, the dark clouds not far away continued to swell and roll, and unnaturally began to spread, blocking the sunlight, and the entire Qiang village was shrouded in darkness, which was very depressing.

We were shocked by this sudden change, Li Xiaohui and Yaoyao whispered in a little fear, in this case, anyone could see that this dark cloud had an evil nature, completely different from ordinary rain clouds.

"It's late!"

Xia Yuanyang sighed, and he said to me: "Since it is at this time, it doesn't matter if you tell you some things. I don't know what you said to my grandfather yesterday, or what important things you showed him, anyway, since you left, grandpa's whole person is wrong, he knelt in front of the statue of the god of Tsing Yi and kept crying and confessing, and said something like the betrayal of the gods by the Qiang people in Tsing Yi. I discovered my grandfather's abnormality at that time, and after my repeated questioning, my grandfather finally told me a big secret. ”

The big secret?

My heart moved, could it be that the secret in Xia Yuanyang's mouth was related to the legendary demon.

Xia Yuanyang said with some sadness: "It turns out that as early as more than two thousand years ago, after the destruction of the Tsing Yi Qiang Kingdom, the remaining Tsing Yi Qiang people in order to continue to survive, they hid in the depths of this Mengding Mountain and made a deal with an evil demon who did not know how many years had existed. The descendants of Tsing Yi Qiang offered special sacrifices to the demons at certain times of the year to obtain the protection of the demons, and this has continued for more than 2,000 years, until today. ”

"Demons? Sacrifice? "My heart was shocked, it was originally just a guess, but at this moment, it was because Xia Yuanyang's words were confirmed, and the evil demon sealed in the Four Elephants Sealing Array really had a relationship with the Tsing Yi Qiang people, but I don't know what kind of purpose the evil demon asked the Tsing Yi Qiang people to sacrifice.

"Is today the day you sacrifice to the demon?" Teacher Jia walked over and suddenly asked.

Xia Yuanyang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, he said: "I don't know, but it shouldn't be today, I only heard my grandfather talk about this secret last night, before this, although I felt that the village was a little strange, but I never thought that there was such a secret hidden inside." Grandpa told me this morning that he had seen the descendants of the gods, and that they had been sorry for the Qiang god of Tsing Yi, and that he wanted to atone for his sins and to settle with the demon. I said that I would go with him, but he was not allowed, and used a spell to suppress my soul, that is, the piece of animal skin you hold in your hand, which has a special power on it, which can suppress the soul of a person for a certain period of time, which is probably a way for him to protect me. ”

I let out a long breath, and I had a rough idea in my heart, this Xia Lei was probably stimulated by hearing me talk about Ruochu yesterday, and felt that they, the descendants of Tsing Yi Qiang, had betrayed the God of Tsing Yi, so he wanted to go to the evil demon to make an end, but Xia Lei said that he saw the descendants of the gods, so who did he refer to? The god that Xia Lei said probably refers to the Tsing Yi God Silkworm Cong back then, and the descendants of the gods are naturally Ruochu, but those are already thousands of years ago, and the only thing that can be related to Ruochu and the silkworm Cong is the mark on my body, the imprint of the sun god bird that is exactly the same as Ruochu.

Could it be that when he speaks of the Seed of God, he is referring to me?

This thought flashed through my heart, and immediately scared me a lot, this thought was simply too incredible, and then related to the gaffe to the point of almost madness when Xia Lei saw the mark on my body yesterday, and his insult to Chen Shengzhi, a very evil thought suddenly appeared in my heart. I hurriedly shook my head and banished the thought out of my head. Now is not the time to dwell on this, I am desperate to find Xia Lei at the moment, and I have many, many things I want to ask him clearly.

"Xia Yuanyang, do you know where your grandfather is? Let's hurry over and see if we can help him!" I said to Xia Yuanyang, although I don't know what kind of state the demon is in now, but I always have a bad feeling in my heart, and I want to find Xia Lei as soon as possible.

Xia Yuanyang shook his head with a wry smile, he said helplessly: "I don't know, I also told me about this matter last night, about the place of sacrifice to the demon, he didn't say a word, but looking at this vision in the sky, it is estimated that the demon has been awakened by my grandfather." ”

"I probably know where."

Just when I was extremely disappointed, a pleasant voice came, and I suddenly had a thrill, and hurriedly looked in the direction where the voice came from, and found that it was the girl in blue who had been standing next to Li Xiaohui who was talking.

"Huh! Yaoyao, how do you know where it is? Li Xiaohui asked in surprise.

Xia Yuanyang and I and the others also stared at Yaoyao tightly, only looked at her cheeks dizzy, and said shyly: "I feel that it should be related to this dark cloud in the sky, when we first entered this village, the dark cloud in the sky was only a small group, and it happened to be shrouded in a place behind a stockade, and it only began to spread later, if you guess correctly, the place where this dark cloud first shrouded is where that place is." ”

"Well, that's right, the little girl's analysis makes a lot of sense." Teacher Jia also said beside him, he looked at Yaoyao with a hint of appreciation on his face.

Xia Yuanyang and I glanced at each other, no matter what Yaoyao said right or not, at this moment, we can only use dead horses as live horse doctors, this is the moment of a critical moment, and we can't afford to waste time.

I said, "Do you remember where the clouds began?" ”

Li Xiaohui pursed her lips and said, "How is it possible, who has nothing to pay attention to the clouds in the sky!" ”

"I remember, if you believe me, I'll take you there." At this time, Yaoyao on the side pursed her lips and smiled softly, the smile on her face was like a blooming flower, dispelling the haze in our hearts.

I nodded to her, and then everyone rushed to the place where Xia Lei was, guided by Yaoyao.

The dark clouds rolled in the sky, obscuring the sky and the sun, I was very anxious, and shouted in my heart: Xia Lei, you must live!
