Chapter 15: Snatched Up

The morning light is shining, the mountains and forests are silent, the new snow is just arriving, and the snow scene that should be calming is supposed to make people feel calm, but from time to time there are strange cries coming out, like a female ghost crying, faint and resentful.

A dilapidated carriage galloped quickly on the rugged mountain road, the carriage swayed left and right on the mountain road with nine twists and eighteen bends, staggering, and a terrible shout came out of the car, tearing through the strangeness of the mountain forest, startling a piece of lonely birds.

Several men in gray rode horses and followed closely around the carriage, and the horsemen in the same gray clothes continued to spur the horses vigorously regardless of the ruggedness of the mountain road, as if there were evil spirits chasing behind them.

A huge manor house was covered with snow and ice, backed by small snow-capped mountains, and hidden among the snow-covered trees.

At this time, the gate of the manor opened, and a middle-aged man dressed in a brown-red staff suit with two henchmen looked forward to the mountain road.

"Altar Master Hu, he is just a little gentleman, how can he let the altar master greet him personally," Wang Shen said suspiciously, "And the fox guard has not returned yet, so the altar master might as well go first to rest." ”

"Shen Yan," was called the Hu Tan Master's drink, although Wang Shen was puzzled, he stopped speaking, and the weak young man on the side looked at the Hu Tan Lord thoughtfully.

"This is an order personally issued by the Dharma King, it is necessary to win over Xiao Gongzi to join the Holy Sect, so you must be respectful to Xiao Gongzi, it will be good for you and me, as long as it is completed, it will be a great achievement," Hu Tan Master said solemnly to the two henchmen.

Hu Feng knew very well that he climbed to this position by virtue of his prudence, and was appreciated by the Dharma King, the prudence when he saw the Dharma King's order before, combined with some rumors and rumors circulating in the sect, and Xiao He's identity, Hu Feng could roughly guess the plans of the Holy Sect's higher-ups.

Therefore, Hu Feng was even more concerned about Xiao He, and he had not yet received a report from his subordinates, so he deliberately went out to greet him in advance.

"The outer village has been notified that it will come at this time, why is it not yet, Zhoumi, you go ahead and check," Hu Feng couldn't help but be a little worried, he found that his right eye was always jumping again, afraid of extraneous branches, and hurriedly instructed the weak young man.

The weak young man quickly reported, "Altar master, but there is a carriage coming quickly, but the person driving and the accompanying person seem to be the rat guards under the rat altar master, and there is no fox guard." ”

"What," Hu Feng panicked, and hurriedly rushed forward, and sure enough, there was a carriage galloping on the mountain road, accompanied by a gray-robed guard.

"Damn, this rat's hand is too long, and it has ignored His Holiness's orders and acted so recklessly."

"The altar owner is not good, look, the carriage has been rerouted." Wang Shen shouted anxiously.

"This rat is simply too deceitful," Hu Feng scolded with hatred as he hammered the trunk of the tree next to him, "No wonder the Dharma King will explain this matter to me before leaving, he will agree so happily, he has already planned to do so." ”

"Let's go, let's go back," Hu Feng said hatefully, and wanted to turn around and leave.

"Is it just like this, let the rat altar master succeed, and give him the credit in vain, and besides, if you lose Xiao He, it is difficult for you to explain to the Dharma King, and your subordinates will bring someone to snatch him back," Wang Shen was unwilling to summon the fox guard, and Zhou Mi hurriedly grabbed him, signaling him to be restless.

"Okay, don't say anything more about this, I will never let him be so proud," Hu Feng stopped, clenched his fists and thought about it, and ordered the two of them.

"Zhou Mi, you secretly go to find out if Xiao He is on that carriage, and where they want to place the carriage."

"Wang Shen, you go and investigate, whether the ghost department deliberately colluded with Rat Yi, or if there was a problem in which link, Xiao He would be taken away by him, and let the outer village have a recent Ansheng Association, don't invite the government, miss the major affairs of the Holy Sect, go."

"Understood."

"Subordinates obey."

The two hurriedly replied and turned to leave.

Hu Feng was not in a hurry to go back at this time, and looked at the mountain road again, the dilapidated carriage had long disappeared into the snow-covered mountain road.

"Rat Yi ......" whispered with a hint of resentment, and the first snow fell.

"Phew~"

The dilapidated carriage came to the small door on the side of the manor, and stopped with a "boom~".

There were also several figures waiting at the small gate of the manor.

Seeing that there were already people waiting in front of the door, the groom hurriedly got out of the car, put on a flattering smile, and ran to the short man in the middle with a servile face.

"The rat altar master, humbly live up to the altar master's trust, and take the person from the hands of the ghost department before Hu Feng's fox guard," the horse man smiled flatteringly, did not dare to slack off, and looked at the short rat altar master in front of him respectfully.

The owner of the rat altar, the rat is easy, thin and short, a gray tight short, the more thin and small, the skin on the face is tight and dull, the cheeks are fleshless, the mouth is bulging outward, unable to cover the protruding front teeth, there are several long whiskers on the side of the mouth, the eyes are flashing with a trace of yellow light from time to time, and a pair of dry and sharp palms are like a big mouse that has become a sperm.

Rat Yi ignored the groom, and even pushed the groom away and looked at the gray-clothed guard next to the carriage.

"Altar master, Rat Wei is fortunate not to be dishonored, and he brought Xiao He to."

"Well, that's good, haha~"

"Stinky fox, don't think that old ghost Zhong is biased towards you, so he wants to press me and make me jealous, hum, no way......

"Now my opportunity has come, the son of the Holy Venerable is coming, and Xiao He has fallen into my hands again, as long as I dedicate the credit of Xiao He's entry into the religion to him, and then he will say a few good words before the Holy Venerable, can't you go straight to the top, Zhong Lao Ghost, stinky fox, then you will obediently lick Lao Tzu's feet, haha......

Rat Yi pinched the rat's whiskers, poking and poking and thinking, a smug smile on the mouse's face.

"Ma Laosan did a good job, okay, please Xiao Gongzi get off, after this matter, I will definitely reward you and others," the rat altar master straightened up, and said lightly to Ma Laosan, who was pushed away, not only was not annoyed, but even more flattering.

"Thank you, altar master, this is a matter within the villain's responsibility, how dare you expect to be rewarded," Ma Laosan looked happy, pretending to be modest.

"Okay, go quickly, your merits, I see it in my eyes, it should be your reward, and there will be no shortage of you," Rat Yi lightly promised.

"Eh, that's good," Ma Laosan got the promise of Rat Yi, and his smile was even closer, and his bent waist was full of strength.

"Xiao Gongzi, you can get off the car," the rat guard helped pull the curtain of the car, and Ma Laosan, who looked happy, whispered to Xiao He in the carriage.

Xiao He was lying in the carriage, his body lying on his back, the clothes on his lower body were soaked with blood and clinging to his body, and his right leg was twisted at an unreasonable angle.

The entire carriage was filled with the smell of blood, and Xiao He looked miserable and didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

"Xiao... Childe ......"

Ma Laosan, who was originally full of joy, was instantly dumbfounded, "This ...... What's going on? He clearly remembered that when he took over from the ghost department, he also deliberately checked that everything was fine, how could it be like this now.

Rat Yi was still thinking about what he was going to say when he saw Xiao He, but after waiting for a long time, Ma Laosan would just stand there stunned.

'These sluts just don't make people worry', Rat Yi scolded in his heart, and suddenly saw this scene from the gap, secretly exclaimed, and directly kicked Ma Laosan away and rushed into the carriage.

"Xiao Gongzi, Xiao Gongzi ......"

Rat Yi didn't respond no matter how he called Xiao He, and his body was soaked in blood, so Rat Yi didn't dare to reach out to move him at all, and couldn't help but be more anxious.

"Quick, go find the doctor, Ma Laosan, your account will be written down first, and you won't hurry up and drive the carriage in."

Ma Laosan only came back to his senses at this time, in order to be discovered by the fox guards under Hu Feng's hands, along the way, it seemed that they were all hurrying and hurrying, even if the road was rough, it was also rushing through.

'This Xiao Gongzi will not be scattered, hit to death! ’

Ma Laosan's face suddenly turned pale, and he quickly knelt down, kowtowed and pleaded guilty, and burst into tears, "Altar master, spare your life, villain... The villain is just thinking about completing the task as soon as possible, Xiao Gongzi...... It's really not the villain's intention. ”

Rat Yi was churning with killing intent in his eyes, what a good plan was actually disturbed by this Ma Laosan, he had the heart to kill him, and he dared to beg for mercy with himself here, delaying Xiao He's treatment.

Lu Jia, the attendant on the side, rolled his eyes and reminded in a low voice in the ear of the rat altar master, "Altar master, this may be a good opportunity, maybe you can trip that one!" ”

"Huh?" Rat Yi looked at Lu Jia with murderous intent.

Lu Jia couldn't help but feel a chill, and didn't dare to show off his cleverness anymore, the person in front of him was not a good man and a woman, so he hurriedly explained his plan and plan.

"Now is the right time, taking advantage of the opportunity of Xiao Gongzi's injury, the altar is mainly to save him, and he will definitely get his gratitude, and then Hu Feng will take the order of the King of Law to force the altar owner to hand over Xiao Gongzi, I am afraid that Xiao Gongzi will not be willing, this is one of them."

"When Xiao Gongzi comes to his senses, we can also tell him that it was Hu Feng's people who made him like this, and it was the altar owner who struggled to save him, Xiao Gongzi will inevitably think of the altar master's goodness, even if he makes trouble in front of the Dharma King, he can also take the opportunity to give Hu Feng an eye, this is the second."

"As for the third point, Hu Feng is incompetent, so he can set off the shrewdness and ability of the altar master, and then gain the appreciation of the Dharma King, then the altar mouth will be respected by the altar owner, so kill three birds with one stone, do you think it's good?"

"Not bad, not bad."

The rat altar owner's eyes lit up, his eyes opened with joy, kicked away the third horse who was lying on the ground and asked for sin, beckoned the gray-clothed rat guards, and asked them to drive the carriage in.

"This brute is also wrong, your dog's life will be written down first, and then next time, my darlings will be hungry."

"Ah, thank you for the altar master, thank you for the altar master's grace of not killing," Ma Laosan was covered in a cold sweat, kowtowing again and again to thank him, for those treasures of the rat altar master, he knew very well, and he could eat people one bite at a time.

Lu Jia stepped forward to stop the rat guard again, and said flatteringly, "The altar master means to move Xiao Gongzi in first, and then find a place to deal with this conspicuous carriage, so as not to be discovered by Hu Feng and affect the altar master's plan, right, the altar master." ”

The rat altar lord nodded appreciatively, there is a subordinate who is dedicated to the main thing and is good at covering up his mistakes for the master, which is really pleasant.

"Quick, quick, bring the plank, put Xiao Gongzi away, send it to the courtyard, be careful, don't let Xiao Gongzi get hurt again."

Lu Jia got the affirmation of the rat altar master, and commanded even more arrogantly, "Ma Laosan, why are you still stunned, don't kneel, hurry up and find a place to dispose of the carriage, it's best to fall off the cliff, nowhere to be found, that's the best." ”

"Well, then I'll leave it to you, you must do a good job of the aftermath, I'll go and see Xiao Gongzi's situation first," the rat altar master patted Lu Jia's shoulder and affirmed, seeing that everyone was still hesitating, they all looked at him, waiting for him to speak.

"Why, don't do as he says," shouted the Lord of the Rat Altar angrily.

"It's still arranged by the altar owner, and the altar owner is wise." Lu Jia, who couldn't help but tremble with excitement, kept complimenting.

"Huh?"

Xiao He was carefully moved from the carriage to a wooden plank, and suddenly made a sound.

"Altar master, Xiao Gongzi has a voice, he seems to be awake," Lu Jia shouted to Rat Yi with an excited face, in fact, he was also worried, after all, he had just said so much, all on the premise that Xiao He was fine.

"What's the matter, Xiao Gongzi, I'm Rat Yi, are you okay," Rat Yi also rushed to Xiao He's side with a smile on his face and said a lot of words.

It's just that Xiao He still has his eyes closed, his brows furrowed, and he has a painful look, obviously not waking up from his coma.

Rat Yi looked at Lu Jia with a dangerous cold light in his eyes, obviously thinking that Lu Jia was teasing him and making him talk to himself like a fool.

Lu Jia obviously felt the threat of Rat Yi, his eyebrows and eyes were furrowed, and he was about to cry, he really heard it, he could only keep praying in his heart, expecting Xiao He to say a word again.

Suddenly, Xiao He's lips moved, and Lu Jia, who was staring at Xiao He tightly, looked at Rat Yi happily, and Rat Yi was sure that Xiao He should indeed be speaking at this time, and it was estimated that he was too seriously injured, so he just muttered in a low voice.

"Listen to what Xiao Gongzi said," Rat Yi urged.

"Oh... Oh..."Lu Jia hurriedly put his ear to Xiao He's mouth, but the more he listened, Lu Jia's face became more and more pale.

"What did Xiao Gongzi say, Lu Jia, say quickly," Rat Yi couldn't help but be anxious.

"Really?" Lu Jia looked at Rat Yi with a struggling look on his face.

"Say!" Rat Yi glared at Lu Jia angrily, damnable, it seems that my Rat Yi has been too merciful recently.

Lu Jia gritted his teeth, took two deep breaths, die or die, closed his eyes, and said what he had just heard, as it was.

"You sluts humiliated Ben Gongzi so much, and you actually broke Ben Gongzi's leg......"

"It's painful to kill Ben Gongzi, you brutes, you can't die well, you are all waiting for Ben Gongzi......"

"When the imperial army comes, they will exterminate you one by one, so as to avenge the broken leg of this son, mother, the child has died painfully......"

The rat guards on the side, Ma Laosan looked at Lu Jia with his eyes closed and a 'excited' face, and sighed in his heart, this is a ruthless person.

Hearing this, Rat Yi's face turned red and blue for a while, and he couldn't get out of his anger, and yelled at everyone, "Why are you still watching, hurry up and move in, and then find a brother who can beat him to watch first, go quickly, it's really a bunch of waste, pull it and move, waste, waste." ”

Everyone hurriedly sped up, and they didn't dare to touch the moldy head of the rat at all.

"The altar master is angry, this is really Xiao Gongzi's original words, if the small one is deceived, there will be five thunders in the sky!" Lu Jia, who had a strong desire to survive, hurriedly knelt down and swore to the sky.

"Alright, get out of here and do something." Rat Yi waved his hand with a stiff face, and he followed Xiao He in first.

Lu Jia followed behind Rat Yi, lowered his head in fear, and couldn't help but show a smile on the corner of his mouth.
