The godless eyes of the human beings had a target at the moment of receiving the order, and one by one they rushed towards us like hungry wolves, and the ropes were already prepared in their hands.

Tang Kao squeaked and screamed, jumping to his feet and shouting: "Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! We don't even know who your sister is! If Wang Min harms your sister, you should go to him, it has nothing to do with us! You have wronged a good person, and your sister will not be happy! You're not avenging her, you're resenting yourself! Miss Mu, think twice! ”

"Who is my sister? You came to find Aunt Meng, but you don't know who my sister is? Mu Jinshu sneered, "You refuse to admit this crime at this time, didn't you just say that you and Wang Min are friends?" ”

"I ...... I lied to you! We've only had a one-time relationship with him, really! Tang Jiao shouted, too far away from us, the first one didn't run away, was kicked in the back by a man and fell to the ground, his nose was hitting the ground and bleeding.

They had weapons in their hands, and we were bare-handed, and the three of us were close together to resist attacks from all sides.

There are many and mixed people, and the other side is well-trained and organized, so that our plan to divert the target and let our own people attack each other has failed repeatedly, and in the face of the siege, it does not take long to throw ourselves into disarray.

A few random arrows were shot over, and I had to pay attention to the centipedes and cockroaches that were crawling around, and soon, I didn't even see the appearance of the other party, and I was stabbed first.

We have been on the road for too long, and there are insects and snakes in the river, and our energy has long been exhausted in fear and fear, and we have all supported it in one breath. The blood came out, half of the breath was gone, and the body became weaker and weaker.

Jiang Xun broke a way, and Ziwei immediately picked me up and ran out, but as soon as I arrived at the door, I bumped into the leader standing there.

Zi and I didn't hesitate, but Jiang Xun's treatment of this old man was no different, and when he was about to make a move, a net made of thin iron wire fell from the top of his head.

The three of us stood too concentrated, and the result of our combined efforts was that none of us could run, and we caught all the nets.

It was then that we finally learned the purpose of the shelf that had been set up and lit on fire, and we were tied to it, and two chains had bound our wrists, ankles, and sticks.

The leader sat on a high throne, crutches, and pressed a skull on the armrest.

The mechanism was triggered on the top of the head, and the towering stone roof cracked through the middle, slowly lifted, and folded out to both sides, and the top of the head was clean, and not a single trace of dirt had fallen.

The stone slabs on both sides were farther and farther away, and finally fell on both sides of the wall with a thud, and different staircase steps appeared on all sides, leading to the high upper floor.

Suddenly, their people sang the local song in unison, and the tone was like a memorial or some kind of incantation.

The fires on three sides were lit and burned to the point that my body burned, and I struggled to look up at the scene above, where there were many unformed mounds, makeshift offering tables, and piles of offerings, large and small.

It's a graveyard!

"Zi ......" I was just about to call Ziwei, but when I turned my head, I saw that Jiang Xun's face was surprisingly ugly, pale with a little cold blue.

"Jiang Xun?" I called out to him, and with a manual movement, the chain was so hot that it almost took a layer of oily skin on my wrist.

I gritted my teeth, feeling that my lips were bleeding because of dry cracking, and I wanted to ask him what was wrong, but the next second, I saw that the blood lines in the piece of blood jade on Jiang Xun's wrist were surging and boiling at a rapid speed, as if they had been thrown into a pot and boiled until they evaporated, and they were slowly decreasing.

I snapped my eyes and shouted his name again.

He smiled as if he had just heard it, "You're wrong." ”

I didn't understand, he smiled and raised his hand at me and said, "I'm not afraid of water, I'm afraid of fire." ”

"You're too late now!" I yelled at him.

Jiang Xun hummed shallowly, and his plain appearance made me have nowhere to fire.

Although he didn't know what this string of beads and jade meant to him, the inexplicable abnormality of the utensils he carried with him was not a good sign.

The leader was helped by Mu Jinshu to the side without flames, and stood face to face looking at us, no longer having a seemingly kind smile, and said a long list of words with a serious face, and the people below shouted one after another.

I didn't understand, Jiang Xun leaned his back against the tied shelf behind him, and slowly translated: "Decades ago, these outsiders invaded our territory, occupied our land, seized our houses, and destroyed our fertile land. They plundered and burned, destroyed barriers, destroyed the graves of our ancestors, and brought viruses and pests. In times of famine, they robbed us of food, killed our children, bullied our loved ones, and brought us half a century of disaster. We are going to teach these demons a lesson today, as they did to our relatives so many years ago, to burn their flesh, eat their bones, drink their blood, and make them repay everything they owe us. ”

"And my mother, our previous leader, who was lost by the devil and left us early to be dragged to hell by the damned devil. As her daughter, as her descendant, I will now let our relatives rest in peace in front of Jinji. ”

My back was numb, and my spine was covered in cold sweat.

These are two completely opposite extremes from what is described in the local chronicles, they call each other bandits, and they give each other a bad name, and who is right and who is wrong, I am afraid that only the people themselves from decades ago know the truth.

And what confuses me is the relationship between this family.

Menggu is the former leader of Muzhang County, Mu Jinshu is Menggu's sister, and the current leader is Menggu's daughter, so in series, Mu Jinshu is the sister-in-law of the current leader?

But—no matter how you look at it, Mu Jinshu is also a little girl in her early twenties, and the leader looks like he is seventy or eighty years old, how is this possible.

Tang Jiao struggled hard with the iron chain and said, "What should I do, you guys quickly think of a way, they will burn us to the dead as a tribute!" I'm going to a man! ”

After a moment of silence, Jiang Xun said, "I can open the chains." ”

His voice was not loud, and he was so angry that we didn't hear him clearly, and turned to look at him.

Jiang Xun breathed a sigh of relief and repeated: "I have a way to open the chain, but I am not sure that I can escape, if you are confident, I can give it a try." ”

I looked at Ziwei and looked at each other, if we were sure, we wouldn't be caught and tied here.

"It's better to give it a try than to wait." I say.

Ziwei glanced at the burning flames in front of him and nodded.

The situation is different from the previous one, we can run to the graveyard above from any direction, not just the gate.

"Okay, you will run as soon as the chain is broken in a while, try not to scatter, but if someone is left alone halfway, don't look back, find a way to protect yourself first, and then find a way to come back to save people."

We nodded, Jiang Xun took a deep breath, and shook the locked hand, the lines in the piece of blood jade were pitifully few at this time, only a few drops like ink remained, and they were no longer surging.

In the blink of an eye, I didn't pay attention, and I heard a "click" in my ear, metal collided with metal, and it fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Before I could react, Jiang Xun suddenly pushed me hard behind my back, "Run!" ”

I subconsciously pulled my legs and ran in the direction of the no fire, turned out of the dry wood, and ran away before they could come to their senses.

Ziwei followed closely behind me, and when the first man pulled out his weapon, a fist smashed over and snatched the knife from his hand.

I didn't see Tang Jiao and Jiang Xun, my head was buzzing, coming out of the hot environment, my legs were weak and thirsty, my whole body was hot and hit the cool air, and the whole person was in a daze as if he was about to faint.

Fighting all the way, it is easier to have a defensive weapon in the escape than empty-handed, when I ran to a step on the edge, I heard the leader shouting, and as soon as I raised my hand and pressed a mechanism somewhere, the stone slabs on both sides rose and unfolded rapidly, and the stairs of the stone steps were also closing into the wall, and finally formed a flat plate.

I almost crawled out of the ground with a rolling belt, Ziwei supported Tang Jiao underneath, I leaned over and pulled him up, seeing that there was only a gap left in the stone slab, and in a panic I hurriedly supported it with my hands.

Tang Jiao was about to leave, but when he turned around and saw that I was still in the same place, he gritted his teeth and squatted down to support the gap in the middle.

I hurriedly reached out to pull Ziwei, his skills have always been good, such a high distance even if there is no stairs to borrow strength.

When I stretched out my hand, he was covering us to repel the man who was catching up, and when I called out to him, he immediately stepped back, stepped on the shoulder of one of them, kicked them away, grabbed my hand, and jumped out of the gap with all his strength.

"I ...... I can't do it......" Tang Jiao was sweating profusely, his face was flushed, and when he saw that there was a pursuer who was about to jump up on the tower, he quickly let go of his hand.

The two stone slabs slammed into each other with a "bang" and closed tightly.

Without waiting for a sigh of relief, he looked at the people around him, and suddenly noticed that there was one missing, sat up from the ground and asked, "What about Jiang Xun?" Did any of you see him? ”

Ziwei and Tang Jiao paused, and both shook their heads, "At the beginning, we followed you and ran out when he asked us to run, and we didn't notice him." ”

I wiped the sweat from my face, gasped for breath, recalled the way he spoke, and frowned: "He didn't look right just now, I'm afraid he ran out of strength after helping us break the chains, and he didn't plan to run away with us at all." ”

Tang Jiao realized later, "No wonder he asked us not to look back!" ”

No one spoke, and there was a sound of footsteps in the same place, Ziwei grabbed my wrist and said, "Let's go first, and then find a way to save him when we escape." ”

There was no other way at the moment, I glanced back at the closed stone slab, and called Tang Jiao to run in the other direction.

There are graves of small dirt bags everywhere, many of which have been picked up and refilled with earth.

I followed Ziwei and kept running forward, and the raging flames dried the bleeding wounds, and then they tore open and began to bleed, and all three of them were wounded, and the ground was soon stained with blood.

As long as those people follow the blood trail on the ground, they will find us wherever we flee.

"Wait a minute!" I shouted to them, "Find a way to stop the bleeding first." ”

Tang Jiao glanced back at the marks on the ground, "But there is nothing here, our clothes have also been taken away, and if we use this bit on our body to bandage, there will be nothing." ”

I looked at him, "Do you want to die or do you want to have a face?" ”

Tang Jiao was speechless, Ziwei took off his upper body and tore it in half, his subordinates neatly wrapped it around my knife wound, and the other piece was tied to his shoulder, and as soon as it was tied, the blood soaked and revealed.

I cut off a piece of my shirt with a dagger and wiped it on my body, drying out the blood that might have rubbed against the leaves.

When we all cleaned up, Tang Jiao also took care of his injuries shirtless, but he was injured a lot, and a piece of clothing was not enough, so I threw the strip of cloth in my hand to him, and after he tied it up, those people were already chasing after him, and they were talking about muttering words.

"Hurry up, be careful." I admonished, took the lead and walked to the front, and was about to get out of the grass, when I heard movement in front of me, and quickly shrank back.

Attacking back and forth, when I was about to fight hard, Tang Jiao whispered to us: "Shopkeeper Shen, look, there is a hole in the ground here!" ”
