1. Chapter 52—Bright as the Moon (14)
"He's going to be here because we're going to go around here, and I'm afraid we know something to save the day." I say.
Chen Chuan: "Well, that's true. But it's useless either, because, we won't believe him. ”
"But if the hero is still.,Maybe it's going to be like this.。
I thought about it, it is very likely that I will lose some judgment in a panic.
"So what do we do now? Wait until tomorrow, or kidnap the village chief until tomorrow. I said.
He was eerily silent for a while, and said, "Why do you want to kidnap the village chief?" ”
"What he said may not be true, and moreover, NPCs with too high hatred will debuff us like an incarnation."
I blinked a little disappointed: "Okay, for the sake of sustainable development, I will be wronged and not look for the matter of the chief of Chrysanthemum Village." By the way, our noses don't seem to be that long, and that's the only thing to be happy about. ”
"Chrysanthemum Village Chief?" Chen Chuan was stunned, and suddenly smiled, this time his smile went straight to the bottom of his eyes, and it was no longer so fake.
"Why, isn't it like? He laughed like a chrysanthemum. I explained in a serious way, and saw that he was already laughing.
He cleared his throat and nodded at me with the rest of his emotions: "Well, it does. Then let's go back and see if the village chief of Chrysanthemum has been here. ”
"Okay." I say.
Just approached the place where we lived, an exclamation came, I made a difference, and it was determined that it was Liu Qingyan's voice, we walked over quickly, and then saw the village chief who was smiling like a chrysanthemum looking at us with a calm face, and rushed out while we didn't react.
Let's hurry over to see how Liu Qingyan is doing, her status bar is still very stable, but her face is a little paler.
Her whole person was very mentally unstable: "Luo Miao went to get food, I just wanted to condense some pills, but I didn't expect him to come and knock on the door, and I ignored it." ”
"But he came in, found me alone, interrupted my cohesive movements, and snatched all my medicines. What can I do, the potency of the lilies will expire tonight. How many pills do you still have? ”
Chen Chuan whispered, "There are three more pieces." ”
"Don't worry, we can get out of here by tomorrow at the latest, and maybe we won't bleed when we get back to the train station."
"You're sleepy, you need to rest." He didn't know when there was a small square in his hand, white, with blue words engraved on the north side - sleeping incense.
Soon, Liu Qingyan slowly closed her eyes, her brows furrowed, and she struggled to wake up, but she couldn't stand the power of the sleeping incense, and gradually fell into a deep sleep.
"I'll carry her to the bed, and you go out and wait for me." He picked Liu Qingyan up and said to me.
It was indeed not a good place to talk about things, so I went to the living room, and it was really okay to sit, so I opened the tea can on the corner of the table and looked at it.
Not a very good tea, the smell of dust is heavy.
I closed the jar, and it happened that Chen Chuan also came out.
"You said it would end tomorrow at the latest, did you think of a countermeasure?" I asked.
Chen Chuan paused for a moment and said, "No." If I don't know anything for sure, don't you believe it? ”
"I believe it." I picked it up without pause.
"Chen Chuan, whether you are sure or not, I believe you."
"Don't wonder why, just ask, thank you for pulling me out of that game world."
"......," he said, looking at me and opening the tea can, "Would you like some tea?" ”
After that, he began to make tea and wash tea by himself.
"This tea is not very good." I said, my brow was already furrowed, and yes, my heart was very rejected.
I'm not used to drinking very bad quality tea.
"You don't have to worry about this, I'll make the best tea, better than any tea you've ever had." He said.
I only thought he was a hi talker, but I forgot that Chen Chuan was not a hi person.
Then, I saw a cup of fragrant tea in front of me, and my first reaction was that Chen Chuan used props, and the color and fragrance of the tea can also deceive people, out of politeness, I took a sip to show respect.
Respect the fruits of others' labor, he is good and I am good.
But the taste buds exploded with a completely different flavor than I had imagined, and this cup of tea was indeed much better than any cup I had ever drunk.
"You...... Did you use anything? I asked.
He smiled, "It's a secret." ”
"Oh, well, thank you for your tea." I don't ask too much, savor these teas.
"Yo, what's this drinking?" Luo Miao's voice came, and she came back.
"Look what I brought, a roast chicken." Luo Miao put things on the table, "What about Qingyan?" ”
"She was resting, something went wrong, and the village chief took advantage of our absence to come in, he interrupted the action of the Qingyan condensation pills and snatched those pills." Chen Chuan explained.
"What?! This old thing, I've long looked at him unpleasantly! ”
"Death like this!" Luo Miao was extremely angry, and his action was to find the village chief.
"What are you looking for him?" I said, "When it's over tomorrow, let's find a chance to kill him." ”
She was a little surprised when she heard the words and sat in front of me, but she still asked, "I can't see it, do you have anything to do?" ”
"You'll know when you go to the ceremony." I was vague and didn't really think about it, but it would be nice if I could turn him into a fish with a sharp nose.
The head of the chrysanthemum village is really annoying.
After eating roast chicken at night, we all went to rest, and the roast chicken also left a portion for Liu Qingyan so that she would not wake up hungry.
The next morning, the village chief sent someone to call us, and this time they no longer cared about purity or impurity, and almost squeezed us in the middle in a kind of hostage, and walked in a circle.
The two leading men were talking in a low voice, and I listened carefully, and I vaguely heard a few words.
"Bells, drums, water, offerings." I silently recited in my heart, and there was a sentence "just take it away".
What to take away, taiko or bells? I guessed in my heart, and couldn't help but glance at Chen Chuan, who also frowned at the hard sword eyebrows.
There is not a single bell in the village, which means that it may be a bell that has been taken away?
Why take away the bell, does the bell have any special purpose? What else is there besides the incense maker's car that makes these residents so afraid?
Nothing more than one thing - the ritual was disrupted.
The tentative bell can ruin the ceremony, and for now it can only be taken one step at a time, and the subsequent events can only be known when you arrive at the ceremony venue.
The direction of the procession was the open space behind the village, which was already full of people of all sizes, all holding taiko drums in their hands.
I subconsciously looked at my long nose, I don't want to beat the drum here, right?
What about our noses...... Isn't it going to be long again?
"Everyone, take your seat! Offerings—" Chrysanthemum Village Chief shouted loudly.
I kept an eye on the people carrying the sacrifices, and they pulled a cart with a gray cloth on the back, and when they got to the center, they stopped and ripped the gray cloth apart.
We saw still, the little Japanese girl, her mouth gagged and her hands and feet tied to the shelf.
