Chapter 66: A Conspiracy
The same step as last time, the same medicinal raw materials, but the timing of the flame has changed slightly, and this time, the pill that has been practiced is still a circle of Dan halo.
In other words, it is a circle and a half Dan halo, and there is a half circle of unformed Dan halo in the middle of the Dan.
Wang Jian's face remained unchanged, and he continued to hone his experience and skills in alchemy, and said secretly in his heart: It seems that I thought alchemy was too simple before.
Time passed little by little.
In the process of Wang Jian's alchemy, Ren Suru's tribe also ushered in the first crisis after Wang Jian left!
Everyone in the tribe was inside that courtyard, and outside the courtyard, five puppet dolls were guarding the courtyard!
A little farther away, hundreds of wolves the size of bison, with glowing green eyes, gathered outside! In the middle, a wolf that was obviously a punch bigger than the other wolves was pressing the formation!
This wolf, with snow-white fur all over his body, is majestic!
There are still more than a dozen wolf skins on the ground in the middle!
This was killed by the puppet dolls during the previous wolf pack's charge! The dead wolf was quickly taken away by the wolves and gnawed away, leaving only a single piece of fur! Obviously, if the wolves broke through the defense line of these five puppet dolls, the fate of the people in the courtyard would not be much better!
But a few puppets also bear the scars left by the wolves! The wolves bite the tiger to death, even if it is a puppet in the Jindan stage, it is not easy to deal with such a large number of wolves.
The five puppets outside are attacking and defending, and the defense line formed is very solid, and the wolves can't break through it after several attacks! But they are still unwilling to give up, squatting around and staring at each other, oh no, wolves are staring...
Puppets are puppets after all, unlike people who are generally flexible.Wang Jian ordered them to protect these villagers, they really just faithfully follow Wang Jian's orders, stay here, and will not take the initiative to attack, nor will they use tactics.
This is also a disadvantage of puppets, and it is extremely difficult for puppets to have the same intelligence as humans.
The wolves quickly adjusted their tactics, no longer swarming up, but on a few at a time, but not head-to-head, retreating at the first contact, and taking turns to harass!
The eagle's hooked nose and teeth in the yard trembled, looking at the wolves outside, he was outside just now, if he hadn't run fast, he would have been eaten by wolves!
Eagle Hook Nose shouted in his heart: "I don't know how long a few people outside can keep watching? Time, I need time now! I have already obtained miraculous skills! If I were given a few years, I would definitely not be so cowardly! I can't die, I finally got back the right again, although I don't want to lose, but these wolves just want food, in order to survive, all the people in the yard can give up!"
Thinking in his heart, his eyes swept over the other people in the yard, and the people who were swept were all as if they were being targeted by poisonous snakes, and they were uncomfortable!
The eagle's hooked nose rolled his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Folks, we are trapped here now! Although there are people guarding the outside for the time being, the wolves will definitely rush in! There is no doubt about this! We have seen it when we were shepherding sheep before! Therefore, we must find a way to save ourselves!"
An old man asked, "Grad, do you have any good ideas?"
Hook nose said: "It is impossible for everyone to live! You can only sacrifice some people in exchange for the lives of others!"
There was a commotion in the crowd, and there was a faint sound of sobbing.
Seeing this, Eagle Hooknose hurriedly said: "Don't panic, we escaped from those man-eating demons, and we have already earned it by living for a few more days, and I will preside over this matter in absolute fairness and justice!"
"It wasn't you who asked us to surrender to those man-eating demons in the first place, I suspect you're uneasy and kind!" a young man couldn't help but say when he heard this.
"Don't talk nonsense!" a middle-aged woman hurriedly covered the young man's mouth.
Eagle Hook Nose looked at the young man coldly, and he had secretly blacklisted him in his heart, and was ready to use some means to get rid of him!
But his mouth said, "Hey... At the beginning, I didn't expect it! I felt very guilty about the death of so many villagers! However, you have also seen how powerful that demon leader is! Even if we resist, it is useless! If we resist, we might all be killed at that time, and we will not be able to hold out until Eungong comes, so it is right for us to surrender, otherwise, we may all die!"
In a few words, Eagle Hook Nose said that the original surrender was a wise decision, and this ability to reverse black and white is amazing!
The young man was still humming unconvinced, but he didn't say anything more, and the others listened quietly.
Eagle Hooknose nodded with satisfaction: "My method is that some people go out to attract the attention of the wolves, and some people take the opportunity to run to other places! But those who go out may not be able to come back, if we use the method of roll call, I believe that all of us will not be happy to be called! Therefore, I propose to use the method of drawing lots! In order to ensure fairness, I will dispose of all the papers of the lots!"
"Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky!I'll go and prepare for the worst!" Eagle Hook Nose shook his head and said this sentence and left, leaving everyone to look at each other.
Everyone's hearts were heavy, waiting for the hooked nose to appear again! The people who loved each other hugged each other and comforted each other, hoping that the person who went out to lure the wolf was not himself!
However, there are always people who want to catch the lot that goes out to lure the wolf! And they have lived together for many years, and their relationship is already very deep!
The atmosphere was very sad and dreary, thinking that he might lose his life later, and no one was in the mood to speak.
The clock is ticking.
The young man who had retorted before stood up again: "I don't feel like we need to do this, let some of our people go out and die! It's safer for us to stay here! Those few people outside seem to be able to hold on for a long time, if we hold on here for a while, Engong will come back! Even if we can't wait, we will die together!"
"Nonsense!" Eagle Hook Nose walked out with a suitcase, and just when he heard what the young man said, he couldn't help but reprimand loudly: "Are you worried that you have drawn a lottery to go out and lure the wolf and are messing around! Do you want everyone to die together? Sacrifice the small self to achieve the big self! Even if it is me, I will draw lots! All people are equal."
"Nonsense, I'm not because of this! you're spewing blood!" the young man shouted angrily
Hooknose ignored what the young man was saying and said to him. Come, Tashi, you are so afraid of death, you come first!"
Regardless of whether he drew lots or not, he first confirmed that the young man named Tashi said this because he was afraid of death.
Tashi's drawing of lots is tantamount to acquiescing in the practice of hook nose, and not drawing lots is also falling into the trap of hook nose, which is equivalent to admitting that he is afraid of death before saying this.
Tashi stared at the hooked nose and gasped, "How can the sons of the grassland be afraid of death!
As he spoke, he reached into the box and grabbed a ball of paper out.
Seeing this paper ball, the corner of the hook nose and mouth showed a sinister sneer: "For the sake of fairness, you open the paper ball yourself for everyone to see!"
Tashi opened the paper ball and looked at it, and couldn't help but be surprised.
On the paper ball, two words were written: "Lead the wolf!"
"I admit it!" I am not a person who is afraid of death!" Tashi said, with a stalk in his neck.
"No, no, I'm going to lure the wolf and let Tashi stay! please!" the middle-aged woman who had grabbed Tashi before couldn't help but cry into the hooked nose.
"Mom, take care of yourself!" Tashi hugged the middle-aged woman and cried too.
Eagle Hooknose was unmoved: "This is his life, he has drawn a lottery to attract wolves! Don't be sad, maybe you will also draw a lottery to attract wolves later! You will still be together!"
These words are extremely cold, but they are the truth in the eyes of everyone!
"Then the second one, I'll draw lots! You see, I don't have anything in my hands!" said Eagle Hook Nose and turned his hands back and forth a few times to show everyone a few times, ready to start the lottery.
After putting his hand into the box and stirring it around a few times, he took out a paper ball and handed it to the person next to him: "For the sake of fairness, you show it to everyone!"
When I opened the paper ball, it was the word "escape"!
There was an uproar among the people.
Hooknose took the opportunity to say, "You didn't see it, it's completely fair, I definitely didn't do anything! This is destiny! Everyone has half a chance to survive!"
Then, everyone went to the box one after another to get paper balls, but it was indeed half "luring the wolf" and half "escaping".
Eagle Hook Nose looked at the person who came to catch the lot and sneered: "Hmph, a group of stupid X, so that such a simple means can deceive you all over the world! That Tashi dares to disobey me, naturally he has to find a way to kill him!"
Just now, when the hook nose was making the box for drawing lots, all the "escape" sticks were placed at the bottom layer, and then a layer of white paper was covered with tape, and all the labels were "leading wolves".
So the only thing Tashi can catch when he goes in is naturally "luring the wolf"!
And the hook nose, swept the other labels on the white paper aside, stabbed the white paper, grabbed the bottom label, and then stirred it again, completely breaking the white paper, so that the upper and lower layers of labels were completely mixed together.
The main purpose of this conspiracy is that Hooknose can survive on his own, so what he caught is naturally the label of "escape"!
As for others, "escape" and "lure wolves" are mixed! In this way, people are even more convinced that there is no cheating at all with hooked nose! Because what the hooked nose's own brother caught is also the label of "leading wolves"!
"I can't help it! For my own sake, I can give up all the others! Even if it's my own brother, it's the same, but it's just right, so they will believe it even more!Brother, I'm sorry!" Thinking about it, a smile of conspiracy appeared on the corner of the hooked nose and mouth.
