657. Are we leaving
Shen Li heard this and asked, "Where is he?" Why was he besieged by the half-ghost people? How did you solve it later? β
Lord Mitsuka put down the towel and said, "I don't know what kind of place it is." His place is relatively remote, but he is very closely guarded by the half-ghost clan. However, there are not many half-ghost guards today, and there were no people nearby when I passed. It's convenient for him. β
As soon as Lord Mitsuka and Li Xiangying passed, what they saw was the scene of Xu Ling being attacked, and they had the upper hand.
They didn't care about asking anything, and went up to save Xu Ling.
What I didn't expect was that the deer people who attacked Xu Ling were very powerful, and they said that they were the top ones in the half-ghost clan, and the three mound lords didn't doubt it.
You can see how important that place is.
With the help of the three mound lords and Li Xiangying, Xu Ling quickly got out of trouble, but fainted due to injury, excessive blood loss and physical exhaustion. Worse still, those deer people also sent messages to the other half-ghost people for help.
The Lord of the Three Mounds and Li Xiangying had to leave with Xu Ling in a hurry.
Before leaving, Lord Mitsuka did not forget to hypnotize those people to forget.
But the traces of the fight at the scene were difficult to eliminate, and the Mitsuka Lord only reluctantly found a reason for them to fight for themselves, and left some deep wounds on their bodies to corroborate.
Not long after they left, a lot of deer people rushed over, and the guards could be said to be the most seen by Lord Mitsuka and Li Xiangying so far.
"In case those people didn't believe and searched suspiciously, we didn't come back at first and hid outside." Lord Mitsuka said, "We won't come back until we're sure there's nothing unusual in the half-oni clan." β
Shen Li said: "With such a big movement, don't they really suspect it?" Besides, if the place was so important, why weren't there many people guarding it before? β
"I don't know." Li Xiangying sighed, "We hid for a long time, and then Xu Ling and I passed out due to injury and fatigue. Luckily, Lord Mitsuka brought us back. Whatever the reason, it's always good that no one finds out. β
Shen Li didn't feel relieved when he heard her say this, but his heart lifted even more. She asked Lord Mitsuka: "Senior, did you find anything unusual when you searched for it yourself?" β
Lord Mitsuka: "Yes." I found a few people who seemed to be of a good position in the half-ghost clan and hypnotized them to ask. It was found that there were no old people in the half-ghost clan, but that the situation of the old people in this group was relatively special, and it was related to the sacrifice of the day after tomorrow. They were as secretive about the old man as the sacrifice, so I didn't ask too much. β
"I know ......"
Suddenly, a weak voice rang out.
A few people looked over, and it was Xu Ling who woke up.
After General Li finished dealing with Xu Ling, seeing him struggling to get up, he hurriedly held him down and said, "Just take care of your wounds, you need to rest in bed, don't move anymore." β
Xu Ling wanted to speak, but coughed violently.
Shen Li found a few anti-inflammatory pills, gave them to him with water, let him eat them, and said, "It's not convenient for you now, let's rest for a while." β
"No...... Ahem, Miss Shen, I have to say ...... now."
Xu Ling slowed down for a long time before he gained some strength, his breath was weak, and he said firmly: "Miss Shen, what happened to us, Lord Sanzuka and Li Xiangying have already told you." β
Shen Li nodded, thinking that he might not know about Li Xiangying and Lord Mitsuka, so he told him again.
Unexpectedly, Xu Ling became excited after hearing this.
"It's not that the half-ghost clan doesn't have old people, it's that their old people cough cough...... Survived in some other form...... Ahem......"
Seeing that Xu Ling was coughing again, Li Lao hurriedly patted him on the back to smooth his breath.
Xu Ling was a little better, and said with a solemn expression: "The place I went to is one of the most guarded by the half-ghost clan after many inquiries, and the other half-ghost clan people also have many taboos to mention, and they won't talk about it deeply." It seemed that there was a problem, so I took the risk. β
When I arrived, I found that there was an old man with white hair and dead wood lying in the cave! He was asleep, and I didn't disturb him, and I flipped through the things around me and found a codex. β
"Only then did I know that the half-ghost clan had a secret method, if the people in the clan were over fifty years old, they could make them younger! The cost is only 20 years to live. What the specific method is, it is not recorded above, but it is recorded that it is related to sacrifice. They are making the old man young in a sacrifice! β
"What do you say? And this kind of thing?! β
Several people looked stunned.
Xu Ling nodded heavily: "If it weren't for such a secret, why would they send so many people to guard it?" When Yin Dong talked about finding out if there were any old people in the clan, wouldn't the object of the inquiry be a little intriguing now? Looking at it this way, although Yin Donggu asked about a child at that time, his actual age may not be inside, he may have just asked an old man who has rejuvenated! β
In other words, maybe half of the young people and children in the half-ghost clan are actually the old seniors of their patriarch!
"This ...... How could there be such an incredible thing in the world? β
Li Lao was confused: "If you are as young as Lord Mitsuka, the old man can still understand, but once a person changes, how can he change back?" Not to mention, it's about reversing your own aging. β
"Looks like that's the secret of the half-ghost clan."
The lord of Mitsuka said: "According to ancient records, the half-ghost clan has found a way to suppress alienation. Wouldn't the half-ghost people not be alienated when they were young? They should have found a special ancient method that could turn them into children. Once you get younger, you won't turn into an orc again. β
"Really." Li Xiangying said in amazement, "So far, none of the children and young people of the half-ghost clan I have seen are orcs. So they've succeeded? β
Xu Ling said: "Obviously. Moreover, combined with what Li Xiangying saw, they should use human blood and human lives as sacrifices in the sacrifice to make their secret method successful. β
Shen Li was puzzled, "They want to rejuvenate that old man at the sacrifice?" Is that a big formation just for that one person......"
"I don't know. But what is certain is that if we continue to stay here, the half-ghost people will definitely do something to us. They will not allow us foreigners to see the content of their sacrificesβwhat kind of secret methods can rejuvenate them. "Mitsuka is the main road.
Shen Li thought of the medicine that the half-ghost people had given them food.
Truly.
The Half-Ghost Clan had done this to force them to leave.
This is the reason why Bago said to her in the morning that she couldn't ask the patriarch or the old man.
If she had known the truth at the time, there was a high probability that Bago would have attacked her. But he didn't say anything because he didn't want to, and insisted that she leave, even when he heard that she might know about their ancestors.
"So what now?" Li Xiangying looked at Shen Li hesitantly, "We...... Do you want to leave as they say? β
