Chapter 58: Meat into the Dog's Mouth
The Black Cherry Zex Empire's Panda City branch is being established in a valley fifty miles outside the west gate of Panda City. All the rooms necessary for office, lodging, dining, hoarding, bounty, hospitality, and imprisonment were provided by a cave dug in the cliff, and the highest cave on the cliff was the special room for the head of the branch, the priest.
After just leaving for more than two months, they returned with a full load again, and the Li family brothers walked into the cave on the top floor of the cliff with Han Xue with a red face, and smiled excitedly: "Lord Sacrifice, see what gift our brother brought back for you?"
The entrance to the cave is the same size, and they are all arches that are one zhang wide and high, but the interior of this cave is open, five zhang wide and ten zhang deep, and the size is comparable to that of an ordinary church. In the cave, two rows of eight stone pillars stand on top of the sky and the earth, supporting the rocks, and a circle of one hundred and eight torches is not extinguished day and night, and the lights are bright! There is also a long blanket made up of hundreds of monster furs, which is spread directly from the entrance of the cave to the depths of the cave.
At the end of the long carpet, there is a half-meter-high stone platform, and in the center of the stone platform is a chair made of some kind of magical beast skeleton, and on the chair sits a kind and kind old man - the Golden Cherry List ranks sixty-one, and Shoulu, who is nicknamed the Dog King, is the sacrifice of the Panda City Branch of the Black Cherry Zex Empire!
"Oh, hey, our hero is back!" the old man named Shoulu beckoned to the Li brothers with a smile and said, "Come here, come here, let the old man see what good things you have brought?"
After being summoned by the priest, the Li family brothers immediately escorted Han Xue to the depths of the cave. As soon as they were halfway through, two black-clothed men with long swords at their waists walked out from both sides of the long carpet, and put on a black robe for the two brothers, and on the collar was the golden cherry that Su Ze was so familiar that he couldn't be more familiar!
There are also four well-made stone chairs on both sides of the stone platform, which are smooth, simple and generous. Only one of the four stone chairs was seated, and that person was also dressed in a black robe, and a pair of golden cherries were also embroidered on the collar. Seeing that the Li family brothers returned with beauty, he sneered with a cold face: "Every time I come back, I don't forget to give gifts, no wonder the betrayed twins can be prosperous all the way." ”
"Eh, what did Brother Zhang say? Our brother can be promoted to the position of captain, and we don't have to rely on the support of the priest and you!" The Li family brothers flattered them very carelessly, and then walked to the stone platform, the elder brother forced Han Xue to kneel on the ground, and the younger brother took out Su Ze's fish intestine dagger from his arms, raised his hands above his head, and said loudly: "The great blessing of the sacrificial lord, this operation has gained a lot! The Li family brothers specially presented a beautiful woman and a sharp weapon, and I hope that the sacrificial lord will accept it with a smile!"
"That's Su Ze's knife!" Seeing that the Li family brothers were going to give away the fish intestine dagger, Qiuqiu was about to flip the table on the spot, and jumped on top of Han Xue's head and shouted angrily: "Old man, I don't allow you to take Su Ze's things!"
"Presumptuous!" Brother Li didn't think that the ball ball of the five scum would be in such a difficult situation, Brother Li was so angry that he couldn't kill it on the spot with a fish intestine dagger!
"Okay, well, it turns out that not only the sword and the beauty, but you also found a magical beast that can speak human language, which has opened the old man's eyes......" As soon as Han Xue entered the cave, the old man had already taken a fancy to her pretty face. It's a pity that he is an old eunuch, and it is difficult for a woman to attract his attention after all, but it is Qiuqiu, a cute beast, that makes him interested, and he says with a smile: "Little guy, come and let grandpa take a look." ”
Qiuqiu glanced at Shou Lu disdainfully, then turned around one hundred and eighty degrees above Han Xue's head, pointed his butt at him, and said angrily: "As long as Su Ze is in this ball, what are you?"
"Ignorant Warcraft, look for death!" Hearing Qiuqiu's disrespectful words, the black-clothed man surnamed Zhang who was sitting on the side immediately stood up, glared at a pair of bull's eyes, and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Li Wen, Li Wu, is this also a gift you prepared?"
"The villain doesn't dare, sacrifice to the adults and spare their lives!" As soon as the hat was buttoned, the Li brothers were so frightened that they immediately knelt on the ground. Brother Li even grabbed the ball above Han Xue's head, and said viciously: "Sacrifice the adults to calm their anger, and the villain will slaughter this beast that doesn't have long eyes!"
"Hey, hey, it's a little thing, look at the ...... that scares you" Looking at the performance of the three people in the seat, Shou Lu was very useful, so he said magnanimously: "It's just an ignorant little beast, let me use the Foolish Loyalty Circle to modify its memory another day, and it is also a rare plaything." You two hurry up, and Zhang Xi should not be angry about these little things. ”
"Thank you, Lord Sacrifice!" Hearing that the old man said that he would not be held accountable, the Li family brothers slowly stood up, and Qiuqiu also took the opportunity to break free from Brother Li's hand, jumped into Han Xue's arms and shouted in pain.
From beginning to end, Li Di kept the action of dragging the dagger above his head with both hands. Shoulu nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his right hand like a withered tree, and took the dagger in his hand tremblingly, and his yellow old eyes looked at it intently, and the fish intestine pattern on the knife made his eyes light up, and then said angrily: "This knife is extremely sharp and extremely evil, and it is a contemporary divine soldier at a glance." There are only three people in the entire continent who can create this sword, and it is fate that you can find such treasures!"
Hearing the praise of the sacrificial lord, the Li family brothers finally smiled with their heads bowed. But at this moment, the old man suddenly frowned and whispered to himself: "It's strange......"
Turning wave after wave, the Li family brothers' hearts rose to their throats again, and they hurriedly asked, "I don't know what advice the priest has?"
"People are getting older, and their memory is getting worse and worse......" Shoulu raised his head, closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and said melancholy: "For some reason, the old man always feels that this dagger is familiar, but he can't remember where he has seen it...... However, since this familiar thing can enter my hands, I guess it is also my fate. ”
Brother Li was sarcastic in his heart: What a greedy old thing, the knife I got from Su Ze's hand, you sent it away with a sentence of "déjà vu"? Having said that, he could only sing with a smile on his face: "The sacrificial lord is nearly a hundred years old, and how many things in the world are something you haven't seen?" Everything you have seen is ours, this is exactly where the spirit of our black cherry lies!"
"Okay, okay, Li Wu, your little mouth is better than your brother!" The old man was coaxed by Brother Li to be full of spring, only to see him walk down the stone platform slowly along the steps, slowly help Han Xue on the ground, and then said cordially in the tone of a conversation between grandpa and granddaughter: "Girl, don't be afraid, don't be afraid." You see the cherries on their collars, right? They're all bad guys, but grandpa is a good guy!"
Han Xue is not a blank slate who is completely ignorant of the world, how can the leader of a group of bad guys be a good person? But now that the future is uncertain, she suddenly saw a life-saving straw, she, a weak person who has no ability to protect herself, what can she do except hold on tightly?
Han Xue begged with tears in her eyes: "Grandpa, please let us go!"
"Oh, don't cry, don't cry......" The old man wiped the tears on Han Xue's cheeks distressedly, then gently took her hand and walked slowly towards the left side of the cave, saying as he walked, "Grandpa promised you." As long as you can do grandpa a small favor, grandpa will personally send you and your family out of here after the job is over, okay?"
Han Xue asked timidly and helplessly, "Really, what can I do?"
Shou Lu showed a kind smile and said kindly: "Don't be afraid, it's a beautiful thing that can make girls feel so comfortable that they want to die......"
