Chapter 14: The Secret of the Mountain Youguo (2)
The cavalry widened the encirclement, widened the opening, and the man in black drove the black horse closer to Ah Nian.
The man in black sat upright on the horse, only lowered his gaze slightly, looked at Ah Nian condescendingly, and he opened his mouth to say a word, "Say!"
It's a person, but a very hard person to mess with. Ah Nianqiang calmed himself, looked up at the man in black and said, "Shouldn't you say it first, what do you want to do?"
The man in black stared at her silently, and the fox demon spoke again, "We are doing a routine inspection, and we have found that something happened in Pinglin Town, and we are investigating it thoroughly. β
"I don't believe it!" Ah Nian said, "It is customary for the monarch to send envoys to inspect all places, but it is customary to arrive in Pinglin Town another month. "And this year, Shanyouguo is not peaceful, the new monarch has been on the throne for less than half a year, and it is not good news, and it is also a problem for him to take care of this stubble.
"The new monarch is on the throne, and some things will change slightly!" the fox demon said lazily, took out something from his sleeve, held it in his hand and showed it to Ah Nian.
It was an iron plaque with a red string on it, and the iron plaque had a pattern on it, and it was carved with a unique secret symbol.
"Do you know?" the fox demon asked.
Ah Nian had never seen the token of the king's envoy, but he had heard from his grandmother. The iron plate was made by the first generation of national teachers of Shanyouguo, and it is more said to be a token than a magic weapon that has blessed mana. The moment the iron plate appeared, Ah Nian felt a concussion in his head, which was enough to prove that this was the real monarch's messenger token.
After thinking for a while, Ah Nian bowed his head slightly and saluted them, "The witch Chu clan Ah Nian has seen the messenger. β
The fox demon was slightly surprised, "Could it be that you are the witch here?"
"Yes!" Shanyou Country is very small, with only three cities and thirty towns, and each town has a spirit witch stationed in the roster, which will be passed down from generation to generation. Ah Nian's grandmother is a witch in Pinglin Town, and she naturally inherited this position after her grandmother passed away. However, over the years, the envoy had only handed over official duties to the mayor of the town, and had never met her.
"There's no one in town, but you're here in good shape?"
"Yes!"
The fox demon smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Then you have to explain it well!"
"I can't explain it! I don't know what's going on in town. β
"Then there is no way!" the fox demon sighed as if sorry and shouted, "Take it!"
Ah Nian didn't have the slightest intention of resisting, and obediently planned to tie his hands and arrest him, but at this time, the man in black suddenly waved his hand and stopped the cavalry from moving.
"Have you ever seen a little girl?" asked the man in black.
The fox demon changed his smiling face again, and added, "The appearance is ordinary, but not ugly, the face is round, the eyes are big, wearing a white dress, the small one, looking at the eleven or twelve years old." β
Ah Nian swept his heart and said truthfully, "I've seen it." β
"Where is she?" said the man in black again, his tone revealing a hint of urgency.
Ah Nian felt a chill behind her, raised her eyes, and found that the man in black seemed to be angry, she looked straight at him without fear and said, "She is injured and unconscious!"
The man in black was expressionless, and Ah Nian felt a little strange in his heart. What is the relationship between this person and the little rabbit demon? seems to be in a hurry to find her, but he doesn't care so much about her condition.
The fox demon said again, "Little witch, hand over that girl, maybe you can make a contribution!"
"Then how many sins can I give?"
The fox demon tasted interested, "Are you talking about the conditions?"
Ah Nian did not deny it, and confessed, "I am sixteen years old. At the age of sixteen, each generation of the Witch Clan can choose whether to stay or leave as a spirit witch. I want to leave. "Originally, Grandma had planned to let her leave when she turned sixteen, and the people in the town would have been happy, but no one expected this to happen.
"Yes!"
The fox demon was about to speak, but the man in black spit out first.
Smacking his tongue helplessly, the fox demon added, "If you want to leave, you have to find out what happened in Pinglin Town." β
"I don't know how the people in the town died, and it has nothing to do with me, I only have the crime of dereliction of duty!"
"I'll worry about this later!" the fox demon waved his hand indifferently, "Take us to meet that little rabbit!"
How could the fox not smell the smell of rabbits? Ah Nian never doubted that this fox demon knew that the little girl was a rabbit demon, but what about another person? Ah Nian glanced at the man in black again.
The man in black had a cold face, his eyes were straight, and he didn't look at Ah Nian at all.
Ah Nian couldn't figure out the mind of the man in black at all, but she still thought that this person was more trustworthy than the fox demon, and although the fox demon always interjected, it was obvious that the fox demon couldn't help but take this person's words seriously.
Ah Nian led the group back the same way, but only in front of the mountain, Ah Nian asked them to stop and wait.
"What if you sneak away?" the fox demon raised an eyebrow.
Ah Nian straightened his back, neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "When I was in trouble, I had to be rescued by a superior person, and I was bothered here." It would be rude for me to take you there at will. β
"Let her go!"
The fox demon's more doubts were blocked by the man in black's words, and he couldn't speak, so he had to sigh and nod.
"Okay, little witch, you go! Go early and return early! If you don't return, I'll set fire to the mountain!" the fox demon waved his hand.
Ah Nian didn't say much and went up the mountain......
The fox demon turned over from the horse and fell to the ground, and said with emotion, "Your Majesty, you really trust people easily!"
"I don't trust anyone but you and Yun Ji. The man in black's voice was never loud, but every sentence seemed to be loud.
Ah Nian didn't know that the man in black was the new monarch of Shanyouguo, named Shuo Ye, and he was indeed just a young man of Ah Nian's age, and the fox demon's name was Hu Yu, and he was one of his most powerful and trusted henchmen.
Hu Yu curled his lips and squinted with a smile, "If you don't believe this little witch, why did you let her go?"
Shuo Ye was silent for a moment, and said indifferently, "You can make sure that she can't escape!"
"Yes! The king will summon people!" Hu Yu sighed, "I am also a toil!"
Shuo Ye was silent, Hu Yu turned to face the mountains and forests, his arms outstretched, his sleeves fluttering, and the wind rose from the ground, passing through the mountains and forests......
Ah Nian hesitated for a moment, and then didn't react, still heading towards the dwarf pine forestβ
The small courtyard was tired, Yu Huaji sat alone under the eaves and drank, and when she saw Ah Nian, she smiled faintly, beckoned, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
Ah Nian said what happened to him without concealment.
Yu Huaji had a flat face from beginning to end, "The little demon was picked up by you, and the matter was caused by yourself, since it is your own business, then you can handle it yourself!"
Ah Nian nodded.
Yu Hua Ji glanced at Ah Nian, "I believe that you are a person who can take care of yourself, but since I promised to take care of you, I can't do nothing!" Yu Hua Ji stretched out her hand and drew in the air with a finger, and a piece of paper appeared out of thin air, and she said, "If you are in danger, I can protect you Ichigo!"
After speaking, Yu Huaji waved her fingers, and the paper talisman flew into Ah Nian's chest, and disappeared in an instant.
"Thank you, Madame Jade. β
Yu Huaji nodded her head, poured herself a glass of wine, raised her glass to the sky, smiled and spilled the contents of the glass, the wine flew out but never fell, as if it had disappeared, and a rainbow rose across the sky......
Ah Nianwang was slightly stunned when he saw Rainbow, and quickly came back to his senses, silently turned around and went back to the house to pick up the little girl who had not woken up yet, and left Yuhuaji's courtyard.
Yu Huaji watched Ah Nian leave, her heart was filled with emotions that Ah Nian didn't know, put down the wine glass, and whispered, "If it is an extraordinary person, there must be an extraordinary thing." β
