Chapter 64: The Bearded Vulture Maiden

Chang Jue was just about to go back after shopping, when he heard someone crying in front of him.

"Don't take my child!, please!" a woman fell to her knees, her hands clutching the hem of the man in front of her.

The man was dressed in black, wearing a black hat, a long red whip pinned to his waist, and holding a child about two or three years old in his hand.

"I have come to take your child on the orders of the priest's temple, do you want to disobey the order of the high priest?" came the man's cold voice, and it turned out to be a woman.

The woman bit her lower lip tightly and shook her head desperately, but her hand did not let go.

"Let go. The woman in black was already impatient.

"Madame, let it go, my lord, my lord, I am only bringing the child to the priest's temple for healing, and I will not do anything to the child. A middle-aged man came to the woman's hand and comforted her, but his tone was trembling, and he must have tried his best to convince himself.

"No, I don't believe it, so many, so many people have been taken away by the priests' temple, and none of them have returned!" the woman grabbed her husband's arm and snapped, "They all say that the priest's temple has taken these children to the priest's nightmare!"

"Nonsense! You are talking nonsense to ruin the reputation of the priest's temple!" the woman in black kicked the woman away, holding the child and about to leave, "I will definitely report this matter to the high priest, and you will wait to be punished!"

"No, I don't want you to save my child!" the woman burst into tears, and suddenly stood up and threw herself forward, as if to snatch the child.

The woman in black might as well be thrown to the ground, and the child in her hand flew out - "My child!"

Everyone closed their eyes, couldn't bear to look at this scene, and when they opened their eyes again, they saw that the child had been taken into the arms of a young man in green clothes, and the young man was the elder.

Chang Jue held the child, Rao was so big that the child still didn't wake up with his eyes closed.

The child's eyes were blue and black, and Chang Jue tried to touch the child's pulse, but he was still alive, but the pulse was floating and weak, and he seemed to be seriously injured and unconscious.

Chang Jue opened the child's eyelids and looked at it suspiciously, and his eyes sank in an instant.

He turned to look at the woman in black, who got up from the ground and seemed angry, drew the whip from her waist and whipped it at the woman.

It's just that before the whip fell, it was grabbed by Chang Jue in his hand.

"Who are you?"

Chang Jue did not answer, looked at the child, then looked at the couple, handed the child back to the two, and was about to leave without looking back.

"Come back, you, you dare to obstruct my errand!" the woman in black felt that he had ignored her, and she was even more angry, and swung her whip at Changjue's back.

Chang Jue flashed sideways, grabbed the whip that flew to his ear with one hand, and pressed it hard, and the long whip fell off the woman's hand with a shock.

"I can't hold my own weapons, so I'm embarrassed to do evil on the street. Chang Jue didn't reply, and said in a calm tone.

The more peaceful Changjue was, the more angry the woman became, and she saw a little bit and directly attacked Changjue.

Chang Jue dodged with a short body, only resisted with a scabbard, and the two of them made a few moves on the street. Chang Jue has always only used one hand, and the more angry the woman in black is, the faster her body moves, and the more unstable her breath becomes.

Chang Jue saw the flaw and struck at her vest, the woman in black was unstable, her hat also flew, and her body fell to the side of the road.

was about to land, she only had time to protect her face, but found that her belt was ripped off, and her whole body was pulled back, although she didn't fall, but her belt was loose.

The woman in black turned her head, and saw Chang Jue throw her belt back with a cold face, and turned her head to leave.

"Hey, what's your name?" The woman in black has no hat, black hair reaches to her waist, a small face the size of a palm under her bangs, and a pair of upturned foxes with a small nose under her eyes, looking like a beautiful girl.

As if he hadn't heard, he continued to walk forward.

The woman in black was open, but she didn't care, and shouted at him: "You remember! My name is Fan Xiaotan!

She looked at Changjue's back and hooked the corners of her lips, and muttered, "We'll see you again." ”

When Chang Jue returned to the tea house, he saw Phantom Wu sitting on the stool frowning in a daze, while Bai Yu was anxious to turn in circles.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing him coming back, Phantom Wu hurriedly stood up: "Let's go, let's go to the royal city." ”

Changjue: "So urgent?"

"Well, I'll tell you on the way. Bai Yu was as anxious as Phantom, and the three of them quickly left the town and stepped into the rolling desert again.

"So, it's not just a nightmare anymore?" Chang Jue asked after listening to the two of them's narration and frowning.

Phantom nodded and replied: "That Xiao Er said, at first it was just a nightmare, but then gradually someone was eaten by demons in their sleep, but anyone who was eaten out of their eyeballs would be taken away by the people from the priest's hall, saying that it was a centralized healing, but no one knew where those people were taken." Many people fled, but many more who could not afford to leave forced themselves not to sleep. ”

"When I left, I was just a nightmare for people in Wangcheng, but I didn't expect it to spread here so quickly. Bai Yu looked very anxious, "It's all my fault, it's too late." ”

"Just now I met a child who was taken away by the priests' temple and just didn't have eyeballs. Chang Jue looked at the two of them and told them what had just happened.

"By the way, Priest's Hall," Phantom Wu suddenly thought of something, looked at Bai Yu and asked, "Didn't you tell me before that you were the priest of the prayer branch?"

"I ...... That ......" Bai Yu couldn't finish a sentence for a long time.

With a "snap", a bone fell from the sky and knocked on Bai Yu's head.

The three of them looked up, and a black-brown bearded vulture circled down from above, and when it fell to the ground, it instantly became the appearance of a young girl: "I said that I smelled a foul smell at such a high place, it turned out to be you, Bai Yu." ”

"I said how to lay bones in the sky," Bai Yu widened, and instantly laughed again, he shook the white bone in his hand, "Fan Xiaotan, you have a big mouth, don't mess with your dinner." ”

The person who came was the woman named Fan Xiaotan who Chang Jue met before, her real body was originally a bearded vulture of raptor in the desert, she was born to eat bones, and she liked to throw bones from mid-air and crush them and swallow them alive, because of this habit, she was a woman who was not less laughed at by Bai Yu.

She didn't get angry when she heard Bai Yu's words, and said with a smile: "Don't do it, I'll give it to you to plug your braggart mouth." ”

Bai Yu was so angry that his feathers were about to explode, he and Fan Xiaotan had known each other for a long time, and they had pinched since they were children, but whether it was force or verbal kung fu, he was not as good as her, so he was always half angry.

Fan Xiaotan glanced at her, then moved to Changjue's side, and smiled coquettishly: "I just said, we will meet again." ”

Chang Jue glanced at her, but did not answer.

Fan Xiaotan was not in a hurry this time, smiled again, and turned his head to look at Phantom: "You are the dream doctor, right?"

The woman in front of her was smiling like a flower, but her eyes were not as eager as a smile, and Phantom Wu nodded and replied, "Exactly, just call me Phantom." ”

"Oh, in Xia Fan Xiaotan, it's the right protector of the temple of the priests," she took out the token on her waist and shook it, glanced at Bai Yu, and said with contempt: "I'm genuine, different from someone." ”

Bai Yu glared at her, but did not refute.

Phantom Wu didn't seem to want to delve into this matter, she nodded, and said to Fan Xiaotan, "Xiaotan, you are also going to the royal city?"

"yes, I'm going back. Phantom Wu saw her take a quick look, and then said: "Since we are on the same road, why don't we go together, with me, the level of this road will be much easier." ”

Before Phantom Wu could answer, he heard Bai Yu's voice bulging and saying, "No need, you fly yours, we will go ours, different roads!"

Fan Xiaotan glanced at him: "You have the time to waste time here, why don't you go back to the royal city as soon as possible to see your Royal Highness the princess...... Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot, now with your identity, the lord of the country probably won't let you into the palace again. ”

Bai Yu's eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief: "Who is the lord of the country?"

"If you marry our princess, you will naturally be the lord of the country, who else do you say?" Fan Xiaotan poked Bai Yu's chest: "You must know that if it weren't for me, you wouldn't even be able to enter the city gate now!"

Bai Yu still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Phantom Wu: "Since this is the case, I bothered the girl to take us into the city." ”

"You still know each other. After Fan Xiaotan finished speaking, he stepped back and stood next to Changjue, "Let's go." ”

Chang Jue took a step away and stood on the other side of the illusion, and Fan Xiaotan followed and moved to his side.

Seeing the actions of the two of them, and then seeing the brightness in Fan Xiaotan's eyes when he looked at Changjue, he was a little panicked somehow, turned over and climbed onto the camel quilt, and walked forward by himself.

The scorching sun was scorching, and her cheeks were hot, she licked her dry lips, glanced at Chang Jue and Fan Xiaotan in front of her, and glanced at her head without making a sound.

"Now that we're all the way, can you tell me your name?" Fan Xiaotan looked straight at Chang Jue with an earnest look in his eyes.

Chang Jue replied politely: "Under Chang Jue." ”

"How old are you?"

"Seventeen. ”

"You're a year older than me, I'm as old as White Feather, I'm sixteen. ”

Chang Jue let out a faint "um".

"Then I'll call you Brother Ajue, okay?"

It was the first time for Chang Jue to be called "brother", he was a little unaccustomed, he glanced at Fan Xiaotan, only to see her looking at her with a pair of amber eyes shining with expectation, and sighed silently in her heart: "Whatever you want." ”

Fan Xiaotan was so happy that she was almost jumping up, completely different from the cold-blooded and brutal girl she saw for the first time: "Then I'll call you Brother Ajue?" Haha, I also have a brother!"

Bai Yu looked at her and rolled his eyes: "Virtue." ”

Phantom turned his head sideways, glanced at Bai Yu seriously, and asked in a low voice, "Bai Yu, you are not a priest, are you?"

Bai Yu didn't expect Phantom Wu to suddenly ask, lowered his head, raised his eyes to look at Phantom, he bit his lip, and said, "I'm not...... But I'm not lying to you. ”
