Chapter 116: A fire broke out in the middle of the night
"Miss Jiu, be careful!"
Mo Hanxue rolled with Jiu Yao in her arms, and finally rolled out of the door.
Raising her eyes, facing the girl's cold and guarded eyes, Mo Hanxue immediately let go of her, the tips of her ears were a little red for no reason, and the heart in her chest was beating even more.
"Let's go, let's run away, everyone else has already escaped!"
Hurried along the way, and soon joined the large army.
But the entire small building was engulfed in flames, forming a large burning fireball.
Not far away, there was a familiar figure standing, it was the patriarch from before, at this time, the patriarch clasped his hands together, not knowing what he was praying for.
"Senior, don't come unharmed, is the fire in front of you good-looking?"
Accompanied by the girl's cold and indifferent voice, the Guishan sword was placed on the patriarch's neck, and with a slight force, his head could be cut off.
When the words fell, he felt a slight coolness in his neck, and the patriarch didn't dare to move in an instant, and the nervous trembling sensation spread all over his limbs.
"Alas, I thought you were a good person, but who knew that you wanted to burn us alive, and your mind was so vicious, this so-called patriarch's position, I'm afraid it won't be easy!"
"Don't worry, we won't kill you, but you must tell us what you are doing it for, but if there is half a lie, this girl can also kill all the elves in this fairy mountain spirit domain, and make them pay the due price for your concealment......"
"Okay, okay, I say, I say!"
Knowing that he couldn't beat him, and he didn't want the entire Immortal Mountain Spirit Domain to be buried with him, the old patriarch could only nod extremely stiffly.
Sitting on the ground and looking at the sea of fire burning in front of you, an ancient legend was also told......
The elves here were originally ordinary birds and beasts, but later a great immortal came here and turned them all into conscious and intelligent elves, who could possess spells and human flesh without cultivation.
They enshrined the great immortal as a benefactor, and also specially built an ancestral hall to worship, and there were countless elves who came to worship, and the small ancestral hall was full of fireworks.
They thought they could live without worry, but soon they found themselves evolving into elves and being subjected to a strange curse.
In the depths of the Immortal Mountain Spirit Domain, there is also a huge ancient lake, the lake is surrounded by lush greenery and life, but the lake water is as cold as the snow that has just melted.
The great gods told them that in order not to be affected by the curse, they had to sacrifice the bodies and souls of thirty elves every year, and then throw them into the cold lake afterwards.
No one knew the point of doing this, but no elf dared to ask.
Because, all the elves who dared to question the great immortals had already been thrown into the bottom of the lake to sacrifice, in order to protect more elven people from the vicious revenge of the great immortals.
By now, some elves have begun to regret it, and watching their people being innocently sacrificed one by one is more uncomfortable than death.
It turned out that the so-called Immortal Mountain Spirit Domain of the Outer Immortal Realm was actually a cursed cage.
"Your arrival is considered to be a new source of evil, which is why we want to get rid of you so that no new tragedy will occur...... Now that the truth is told to you, I pin my last hope on you, and I beg you to help the elves to free themselves from the control of the great gods, so that they no longer have to sacrifice any elves, and they will no longer be plagued by curses......"
"Judging from the observation, you are different from the great immortal, as long as you can help our people, even if you are a dead demon, you are willing!"
While speaking, the patriarch Shi Shiran wanted to bow down, but was carefully helped by Mo Hanxue, and pinched his pulse by the way.
"He's not lying." Mo Hanxue opened her mouth lightly, let go again, and raised her eyes to look at Jiu Yao.
In front of everyone's eyes, Jiu Yao rubbed her chin and thought for a moment, then nodded hesitantly,
"Okay, this girl promised to help you, but you must also show us that we are sincere, after all, there is no such thing as a free lunch, and besides, we were almost burned to death by you with a samadhi fire......
"If you are willing to help with this, we can give you the treasure of the Elven Clan, but before that, the mission must be successful."
"A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase, this deal is done."
Over there, the sky was bright, and in the blink of an eye, a new day came, and the fire was finally extinguished by the holy water of Xianshan.
The small attic was burned to the ground, and it was full of black char and unburned ruins.
"Okay, now you can take us to the ice lake to find out."
Jiu Yao paused, her voice cold.
The words fell, and before they could take a step, a group of elves suddenly appeared and surrounded everyone.
Facing the bewildered gazes of the above, the patriarch could only speak, and patiently explained,
"There are secrets of the elves buried in the ice lake, and it is inevitable that they will be coveted by outsiders, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, someone must stay as a hostage, rest assured, the reward will not be less."
Hostage? Soon, Li Ergou became the focus of everyone's attention, and he was obviously the best hostage candidate.
"He, it's him, leave him as a hostage, I don't know what the patriarch wants?"
"Master Dog, I can only wronged you temporarily, but this is also a helpless way, I hope you can understand...... But once you have good things, you can't do without them. “
"I ......" Li Ergou opened his mouth, wanting to refuse, but he didn't know what reason to find.
After all, he is indeed the weakest existence in the team, and as a hostage, he can exert the greatest value.
Watching it, the group embarked on the road and began to climb over the rolling mountains.
It was when he was in a daze that someone suddenly patted Li Ergou on the shoulder.
"Who, who, who!" Li Ergou was so frightened that he jumped up, but he saw that the person who came was just a child with a general horn.
Blinking his big black and white eyes, the child said very quickly, "This strong man, please come here, in order to entertain your guests, we have specially prepared many delicious dishes for you, as well as the best wine of the elf clan." ”
Delicious dishes? And the best wine?! When the words fell, Li Ergou's face could be regarded as better-looking.
Immediately, surrounded by the elves, they came to a table full of food.
"Today, Master Dog, I am bound to have a big meal happily, turn grief and anger into food, and don't get drunk or return!"
The glow-in-the-dark glass at hand was quickly filled with wine, with a spicy and pungent aroma, obviously a spirit that had been cellared for many years.
One cup after another, Li Ergou immediately fell to the ground drunk, unconscious.
