Chapter 17: The Siege
The paper figure is still following around in circles, and it is very difficult to get it back.
Huang Ye and I slowly leaned over there.
Just after a few steps, I quickly grabbed Huang Ye and pointed to the ground with some concern.
The three sticks of incense we had planted before had long since been extinguished. The two on both sides were half burned, and the middle one was just burned off. Two long and one short, stuck in the ground.
"Oops, we have to hurry." When Huang Ye saw these incense sticks, his expression was also extremely solemn.
"Master Huang, can you let them burn it themselves?" I remembered that after those people found out, they directly lifted the paper figure and burned it. Although it is said that I will never forget the pain that time, but the paper figure smeared my blood that time, and this time the two paper figures did not smear blood.
"No, it's not just about burning. Otherwise, wouldn't it be more worry-free for me to burn them all in a fire. ”
So now we have to go over and get those two paper figures back.
Again, we cautiously leaned over that direction.
As for our approach, it was as if none of the villagers had noticed.
They were still circling around the grave of the old king.
In just a few tens of meters, the two of us walked for five or six minutes, and then we mixed into the circle of these villagers with trepidation.
Although Huang Ye's formation illuminated this place as bright as day, according to him, the time for this formation to last was only fifteen minutes. So we now have less than ten minutes at most to get the paper figure out of the circle.
After entering the circle, I didn't dare to breathe.
With the crowd, he slowly leaned towards his paper figure.
I saw Huang Ye's side, which was similar to my movements.
Fortunately, these villagers are unusually wooden, so we have a chance to take advantage of it.
In less than two minutes, Huang Ye and I grabbed the paper figure at the same time, and slowly dragged the paper figure to the end.
"It's here, let's go!"
Huang Ye shouted at me, and the two of them exerted force at the same time, dragging the paper figure in their hands and preparing to run.
But this pull, we both sensed that something was wrong. The paper man, which was originally light and fluttering, actually weighed a thousand pounds at this moment, as if it was growing on the ground, and we couldn't move it no matter how we dragged it.
Just wanted to look up and ask Huang Ye what to do, he found that the situation around him was abnormal.
The villagers, who were still circling around Lao Wang's grave, have surrounded the two of us in the middle this time.
"Don't do it yet." Huang Ye saw that I had already taken out the dagger he gave me, and immediately reminded him.
The villagers stared at us directly, and I felt furious when I saw it.
Hearing Huang Ye's reminder, I looked at him with some puzzlement.
Unexpectedly, he ignored those villagers and took out things like incense paper money from his bag, and even rune paper and a few bronze coins.
"Stand next to me, I need a minute."
"If they don't move, don't move either; If they rush over, they will just use this to cut it."
I saw him talking, and took out a copper coin sword from his bag, about twenty centimeters, all of which were made of that kind of bronze coin. And before handing it to me, he bit his index finger and smeared the blood on the copper coin sword.
Although I didn't know what he was going to do, that solemn look made me take the copper sword.
Next, I saw him put two pieces of rune paper on our two paper figures.
I can clearly feel that the moment the talisman is pasted, the paper figure is shaken by the wind a few times, that is to say, it is not so heavy.
Huang Ye's movements were not over yet, his hands were quickly sealed, and his fingers dazzled me.
A few loose copper coins on the ground were also pasted on the paper man's body by Huang Ye.
Immediately afterward, three incense sticks were lit and planted on the ground.
At the moment when the incense was lit, all the villagers began to move and pressed towards us.
The outstretched hand seems to tear us apart.
Before I could react, the old village chief's hand grabbed my shoulder. In an instant, the pain in the heart came from the arm, and beads of sweat the size of beans instantly burst out of the forehead. It just hurts.
"Do it, do it!" Huang Ye was also anxious when he saw this situation, and shouted loudly at me.
The copper coin sword in his hand slapped towards the old village chief with his backhand.
