Chapter 7 Misfortune does not go alone
After Xiao Liu ran for a distance with Xiao Jiu, he found that although the dryad behind him was still chasing them, the other party's speed was not fast, and the dense trees along the road blocked his steps, and the pace of the two children was still enough to shake it off.
Although this dryad has a lot of strength, and each of its poles is like a tentacle or an arm to catch prey, its disadvantage is also obvious, that is, it is very slow to move.
Just now, Xiao Liu relied on the reminder of the tapir in his mind to be timely enough to be able to escape the initial capture of the dryad, if it wasn't for that, then the current result must be a different scenario.
After running for about a mile, the dryad had been completely thrown away, and there was no trace of it when he turned back.
Xiao Liu Chang breathed a sigh of relief, and from then on, the two of them didn't even dare to stop to eat, and every time they passed by the trees that grew here, they carefully avoided a certain distance.
After walking about half the distance, that is, more than ten miles, the tapir in his head suddenly asked out loud without warning
"Boy, I was going to take you away before, why do you seem like you don't care? Tell me what you think? Don't you understand what it means to be taken away?"
The sudden question made Xiao Liu's body stunned, but then he took Xiao Jiu to hurry as usual, and Xiao Jiu on the side didn't find anything unusual about his brother.
"Can you hear me?"
Xiao Liu didn't speak, only recited a sentence in his heart.
"Yes. The two of us are now one and two hearts, and it is enough to communicate with each other just by meditating in our hearts. ”
After receiving the tapir's affirmative reply, Xiao Liu was silent for a moment before saying in his heart
"It's not that I don't understand the meaning of taking away, it's nothing more than that after you take away from me, there will be no more of me in my body, which means that I am equivalent to death. I don't blame you, though. ”
"Why?"
The tapir felt very strange that if he encountered the same situation, he would definitely hate the other party to death, and even if he could not immediately kill the person who wanted to take him away, he would still have this matter in his heart and take revenge sooner or later.
But Xiao Liu just said that he didn't blame him, there was no hypocrisy in his words, and the fifth master who fused with his soul was 100% sure.
So he's even weirder.
"I don't blame you, because even if you hadn't taken it away, I would have died of my injuries. You failed to give up by mistake, and you merged with my spirit, but you indirectly saved my life. So instead of blaming you, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, how would I have been able to find that elixir? How could I have escaped the persecution of those people in white? How could I have found out that Xiao Jiu was not a person in the illusion like me?"
Xiao Liu's words are sincere, and the tapir, that is, the fifth master, knows that what the other party says is true.
He didn't expect that he was not a murderer in the other party's heart, but a benefactor.
After hearing this, the tapir fell silent, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of guilt for this boy who had felt stupid before.
"Let me reintroduce me, my name is Mo Wu, you can call me Fifth Brother. I'll call you Xiaoliu in the future. I'm afraid we're going to have to spend the rest of our lives together like this......"
The fifth master introduced himself so seriously and solemnly, and Xiao Liu felt a little flattered.
The mystery and strength of the other party have been ingrained in his heart, and being able to get the face of a character like the other party is something that Xiao Liu can't ask for.
"Okay, Fifth Brother. We're on the road, and we're half safe when we get to the road. ”
As soon as Xiao Liu's words fell, Mo Wu in his mind warned
"Be careful, there's someone coming up ahead!
When Xiao Liu heard that there were people, he was quite surprised in his heart, if he met other people, he could ask for help from the other party, but Mo Wu asked them to hide temporarily.
Out of blind trust in Mo Wu, Xiao Liu still complied.
He took Xiao Jiu to hide in a pile of bushes, and reassured Xiao Jiu to keep her silent.
Soon after, five muscular men with strong physiques and flesh stopped where they had stopped.
"It's weird! I obviously felt the smell of prey here, why did it disappear in a blink of an eye? Could it be that I was mistaken?"
One of the sturdy men standing in the middle spoke suspiciously.
"You're right, because I feel the breath here, too. Let's look around, maybe we will be rewarded this time!"
A big bearded man with two sideburns and hair in the front flashed with a cold light in his eyes, and then with a wave of his hand, the five men who were as strong as robbers began to search around in different directions.
It was obviously not the first time that these five people had acted together, and they seemed to have been discussed, each of them was in charge of one side, and began a carpet search in five directions.
Xiao Liu only understood at this time why the fifth brother would let him hide first, this had just escaped the pursuit of the tree demon, and he met such five unkind big men, it was really a disaster!
Although he didn't know where the other five people came from, just looking at the gangsterism on them didn't look like good birds.
I and Xiao Jiu are just two children, especially Xiao Jiu, she is only seven or eight years old, and she is as cute as a porcelain doll, if the other party finds out about the two of them, it is hard to guarantee that they will not be sold as goods!
Xiao Liu has lived in the valley since he was a child, and he knows very little about the things outside, but the adults in the village, that is, those real illusions, have told him a lot of sinister deeds outside.
Now look at these five sturdy men, how do they look like legendary human traffickers!
Xiao Liu covered Xiao Jiu's mouth with his hand to prevent her from accidentally making a sound, and at the same time, he himself was holding his breath and concentrating, and he didn't dare to take a breath, just hoping that the other party would leave quickly.
But things went in a bad direction.
One of the five men coincidentally searched for a while and began to walk straight towards the bushes where they were hiding.
And looking at the other party's eyes, it is obvious that they intend to conduct a thorough search of this half-human-tall and very dense bush!
Xiao Liu was anxious at this time, although he had practiced a little boxing and kicking, he was not half sure about dealing with this kind of adult!
"What should I do? Is it really going to fall into the hands of these people? It's just my words, but Xiao Jiu ......"
Xiao Liu's mind was in a hurry, but no matter how he tried to break his head, there was no way to break the deadlock.
"Relax, I'll get him away!"
At this critical juncture, the fifth brother in his head spoke again, and his neutral voice sounded like heaven to Xiao Liu at this time!
"Fifth brother, do you have a way?! You say, what do you want me to do?"
is unfathomable to the fifth brother, and Xiao Liu is a hundred trusts, so he said that if there is a way to get rid of the other party, then there must be a way.
"You try to relax your spirit now, I will cast an illusion through your eyes, and you don't have to worry about the rest of the matter!"
The tapir was the fifth brother who hurriedly commanded, because time was running out, and the big man was already less than ten meters away from this bush.
"Okay, I'll try!"
Xiao Liu closed his eyes and gently exhaled a breath of turbidity, trying his best to get rid of his nervousness, and his breathing began to calm down.
"It's now!"
Suddenly, Xiao Liu felt as if he was being pulled into some abyss by a whirlpool, his spirit began to detach from his body, and then he lost all perception of the outside world.
Soon, however, he saw everything outside again, but as if he were separated by a transparent barrier.
At the same time, Xiao Liu's body kept its original posture and slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes had become different at this time, originally Xiao Liu's pupils were black pupils, but at this time, his pupils turned ice blue, flashing with a bewitching brilliance.
"This body is really weak! I'm so unaccustomed to it......"
"Little Six" clenched his fist, this body was too strange for the tapir.
"Whoa!
Soon, the big man came to the bushes, and unceremoniously played with the sheathed knife, and the bushes were swayed from side to side by him, and the scene in them was unobstructed!
"Huh?"
The big man was looking for it carelessly, and suddenly, he saw Xiao Liu and Xiao Jiu hiding in it, and just as he was about to speak out and make further movements, the next thing that caught his eye turned into a pair of ice blue eyes that occupied all his vision.
These eyes are naturally the fifth brother who controls Xiao Liu's body, and when his gaze meets the big man, the gaze of the big man can no longer move a bit, as if it is an iron block attracted by a magnet.
At the same time, all the movements of the big man also stopped, and he remained there with the same qualifications as he had been playing with the bushes.
"There's nothing here! If you stay here, you're going to die!"
"Little Liu" covered Xiao Jiu's mouth with one hand in horror, and whispered something at the same time.
After a few moments, the big man straightened up again and walked towards his brothers.
