Chapter 25: The Sacrifice?
"Don't look at me, it's not my hand, you still think about whether you have any sins in Southern Xinjiang," the black-robed man said in a hoarse tone.
The words of the black robe made the faces of the rest of the people change greatly, as if they thought of something, and immediately ran out of the inn in a panic.
"Uncle Ghost, can they escape?" the girl asked the black robe.
"I've been marked by a spell master, and I can't save my life even if I run thousands of miles away. The black robe's understatement seemed to have already sentenced these people to death.
However, the joys and sorrows of all beings are not the same, when some people are still fleeing in a hurry to save their lives, the rest of the people in the inn have regained their calm, in the land of southern Xinjiang, such a situation is not uncommon, they are all used to it.
On the contrary, Yang Wen persuaded Lu Yu and said: "Brother Lu, you have also seen it, this southern Xinjiang is a lawless place, killing people is just commonplace, you are a scholar, you have no power to restrain chickens, or don't risk yourself to go to such a fierce place." ”
Lu Yu waved his hand, and said disapprehantly: "Brother Yang, don't worry, although he is a scholar, he is not a pedantic person who only knows how to read, and I also have a good practice in swordsmanship." After speaking, he patted the sword on his waist, and then the senior brother and sister found that Lu Yu was actually wearing a sword on his waist, but it looked simple and unpretentious, and he couldn't see the spiritual light, and it was estimated that it was just an ordinary human sword.
Hearing Lu Yu's words, Mo Chou laughed out loud and said, "You scholar is really bold, you dare to go when you see the scene just now." ”
However, before she finished her words, she was rewarded with a chestnut on her forehead by her senior brother. I saw Yang Wen say majestically: "How do you teach you on weekdays, how do you speak, don't call Brother Lu, open your mouth to be a scholar." ”
After speaking, Mo Chou, who covered his forehead and cried with a sad face, turned his head and said apologetically to Lu Yu: "My junior sister is still young, she is spoiled by us, and she hopes that Brother Lu will forgive me for her inconsiderate words, but this southern Xinjiang mountain is far away, and the smoke miasma is rampant, and Brother Lu is afraid that he is in danger alone, so it is better to walk with my brother and sister, and there is a good way to take care of it on the road." ”
Lu Yu forgot to glance at Yang Wen, but he didn't expect that this young man was still chivalrous, so he didn't say no.
After being satisfied, the people in the inn began to march towards the southern frontier in a scattered manner, they had their own purposes, but the expressions on their faces were not easy at this moment, after all, entering such an insecure place, especially when the previous thing happened, cast a shadow on their journey.
Lu Yu followed the brothers and sisters of Yang Wen and walked slowly on the land of southern Xinjiang, feeling the mystery of people's mouths.
Everyone says that Southern Xinjiang is a mysterious place, and there seems to be some power shrouded here, but most people think that this is just a psychological effect, after all, this is an uncivilized land, and people outside know little about this land, and the tribes living in Southern Xinjiang rarely like to communicate with the outside world, so it has created the rumored mystery.
However, Lu Yu could clearly feel that in this land, there really was a mysterious force, majestic and vast, which seemed to be high up and dominate the fate of this world.
"This feeling is very similar to the evolution of the legendary law!" Lu Yu secretly lined up in his heart.
Southern Xinjiang has always had a lot of rain, high mountains and dense forests, there are countless poisonous insects lurking in this mountain forest, these poisonous insects are even the most terrifying killers in the world are also high-grade medicinal materials, can cure many stubborn diseases, many businessmen enter southern Xinjiang is to buy the corpses of these poisonous insects, make huge profits.
However, for people walking in the mountains and forests, this feeling is a little bad, the elusive poisonous insect is the most headache for all adventurers, after all, the poisonous insect living here, no one can say how poisonous it is, it is very likely that a small insect bite, will easily take the life of an adult.
However, Lu Yu and his party don't seem to have this kind of worry, the clothes on Yang Wen and Mo Chou will emit a faint white light, once the poisonous insect approaches, it will be cut into several knots by this white light, and it will not be able to get close to the bodies of the two people at all, Lu Yu squinted his eyes and looked at the white light, knowing that this was actually a faint sword light.
As for Lu Yu himself, since he set foot on this land, he has constantly sensed the mysterious power hidden in this land, so his body is contaminated with a strange aura, as if he is one with this land, if he doesn't feel it carefully, he can't detect his breath, and those poisonous insects also ignore him, as if he is air.
Yang Wen looked at Lu Yu in surprise, he felt that this scholar had a special temperament, especially when he stepped on this land, he could clearly feel that Lu Yu seemed to have an inexplicable connection with this land, and the feeling that it seemed to be a part of southern Xinjiang made him very surprised.
"Brother Lu, do you have any special feelings when you arrive in Southern Xinjiang?" Yang Wen asked tentatively.
"It feels inexplicable, familiar. Lu Yu said with a smile.
"Yes, I also found that Brother Lu seems to be quite compatible with this land. Yang Wen said with a smile.
Mo Chou looked at the two people talking with a puzzled expression, not knowing what kind of dumb riddle they were playing.
At this time, suddenly a panicked footsteps came, and a girl covered in blood ran out of the dense jungle, and looked carefully to see that it was actually the spicy girl in the inn.
At this time, the girl looked embarrassed, and the black-robed man who had been following her without leaving was gone, only to see that the clothes on her body had been scratched and covered with holes, revealing snow-white skin, and her expression was terrified, and she no longer had the momentum she had when she was in the inn before.
When she saw Lu Yu and his party, there was obviously a look of hope in her eyes, but before she could speak, a gloomy voice came from the depths of the dense forest.
"Little girl, don't run away, you are destined to be the sacrifice of my gods, and it is your destiny to become one with the great gods. "An old man in a strange costume came out of the jungle.
He held a wooden staff inlaid with a skull, an accessory like an elk skull on his head, and feathers on both sides, half of his face was covered with strange patterns, and his face was slightly old, but there was no twilight like that of an old man, but there was a chilling momentum.
When he saw Lu Yu and his party, his eyes couldn't help but light up, especially after seeing Lu Yu, his eyes showed a fanatical look, only to see him suddenly fall to his knees and shout feverishly: "Great God, is this your revelation to me, send the best container in the world to me." ”
