Chapter 50: Liar? (Added 1)
"Not decided?"
The boy shook his head. The reward offered by the wooden bell sounds tempting, but even the most generous reward has to be spent. This matter should be done and watched.
Chitose scolded him with a smile and called him a "coward", and then said, "Then give it a try." ”
She paced back and gave everyone an incomparably bright smile: "It is my duty to do the right thing for heaven, and we will try our best to kill that old witch for everyone!"
Speaking better than singing, the boy couldn't help but cover his face.
After receiving such a clear answer, everyone was surprised and delighted, bowed and thanked again and again, and no one noticed that Chitose had secretly changed the concept.
The people did not know what they were doing, but when they had hope, they stopped grinding foreign labor, and the work in their hands was much faster, and in a short time they finished picking the herbs in the furrow and handed them over to Chitose.
She saw that the boy's breath had become more even, and his chest was no longer rising and falling rapidly, and she knew that he had regained some energy, so she said, "What do you think?"
The boy took something out of the basket and shook it in front of her.
It was the fireworks he had scavenged from the dead sentinels, the last one.
Chitose smiled: "It's a way." ”
The boy took the torch, and soon a handful of silver flowers exploded in the dark sky, large and bright, illuminating the whole farm as if it were day.
Such dazzling fireworks can be seen for dozens of miles.
Then she gathered the people together, pointed to the granary, and said, "Go back to the barn first." After a while, someone will open the door and let you out. ”
"What ......"
"We don't want to go back! We've all picked up medicine for you......"
Everyone was shocked, did this woman let them out of the granary just to collect medicine for her? Now that the herbs had been harvested, they had no use value, and she wanted to drive them back?
As a result, Chitose only said one word, and they shut their mouths:
"The witch is going to come back to settle accounts with us soon. If she were to see you gouging her beloved medicine field, you think she wouldn't be angry?"
Some people can't help but argue: "We are collecting medicine for you......"
"Are you going to tell her?" Chitose sneered and looked around at everyone, "Besides, the poisonous fog is about to float back, and you don't want to die?"
The tragic situation of the two people who died in the fog before was vivid, and people were afraid, and the husband and wife who spoke before were expecting Ai Ai: "Fairy Gu, you, can you really save our lives?"
"If you keep grinding, it won't be necessarily. Chitose said lazily, "Kindness means that you have a way to live, and those who want to die just stand here." "If it weren't for the concern that these people were in the way, how could she waste precious time arguing with words?
The civilians walked back to the granary, step by step.
With a bang, the door locked.
Everyone: "......" is becoming more and more unsure.
The boy locked the granary, and when he turned around, he saw Chitose approaching the outer door of the farm. The wooden ape that was nailed to the door was still grinning at him, and Chitose jumped on the door of its head and leaned down, stretched out his hand, and smashed his slender fingertips directly into the wooden golem's eye sockets!
When the white and tender little hand retracted, it was still clutching something. The boy could tell that it was a small piece of wood, about the size of an orange.
Immediately after, its two small pinches of crimson flames vanished, like extinguished candles.
The wood ape suddenly stopped all movement and froze in place.
The life core is taken away, and it is just a dead thing.
Chitose took out the small silver knife and shook it at the boy. She stood with the granary on her back, her hands in her sleeves, and the boy couldn't see the follow-up movements, only sawdust falling and being kicked up and buried by her.
In just a few dozen breaths, Chitose re-revealed the life core of the wood ape, and the thing completely changed. Chitose hung it on the lock of the granary, clapped his hands and took two steps back to appreciate: "The herbs are in hand, this is a return gift to Granny Mu." With that, he picked up the boy's back collar and said with a smile, "Let's go." ”
The wood ape is disabled, and the mother of the wood, as the owner, must have a sense in her heart, and it depends on how long she can rush back here.
In an instant, the figures of the two disappeared at the edge of the field.
After a while, the horse had to run back on its own, but the passengers on the horse's back were missing.
When the people in the granary saw it, they were all shocked:
What about the promised decisive battle, and the soldiers who said they were going to come? These two people were born like human beings, locked them in the granary and left without looking back, could it be that they are just liars?
The window of the granary was so small that the people inside could not see the lock. What is the "return gift to Granny Mu" that the woman said?
¥¥¥¥¥
Deep in the forest, rivers of blood flowed.
After surviving the initial chaos, the officers and soldiers brought by Shen Gu and the mountain bandits quickly gained the upper hand.
Although the other party cooperated with the cannibal willow to launch a sneak attack, and the location was convenient, but the capable people that Shen Gu brought out this time had their own magical powers, such as one of them was seven feet tall and invulnerable, and when he charged in the first wave, he acted as a meat shield to attract all the attacks in front of him, and directly crashed into the mountain bandits, disrupting the opponent's position.
With their help, the officers and men pressed forward quickly, and after half an hour of fierce fighting, they successfully passed through the narrowest mountain pass.
There was no danger to defend, and the mountain bandits were defeated and scattered, and they were torn apart.
There is no suspense in the ending, just look at how many bandits can be eliminated in the end.
For the current situation, Shen Gu was not surprised. The thorn in the side of the magistrate is nothing more than a rabble that can be broken up with a wave of his hand to the pacification envoy who personally supervises the war.
After all, it's just a bunch of recklessness, where is Wang Ting's opponent?
Shen Gu covered his left shoulder.
He was physically strong but not proficient, and although he was protected by his subordinates in the middle, he still accidentally caught the enemy's way. A serpentine vine hung down from the tree silently, and suddenly pierced his shoulder!
At this time, the enemy army retreated, and they fought to catch up, and their hearts were already a little relaxed, and they were not as alert as before. The other party chose to attack with a backhand at this time, and the timing was very appropriate, and it seemed that he still had the idea of capturing the thief and capturing the king first.
The short and thin man who was guarding him cut off the vines and stopped the bleeding for Shen Gu. But the appeasement made the adult's wounds blue and black, and it was obvious that the vines were highly poisonous.
Zuo Shen leaned over and fed the master a green pill: "Suppress the toxicity first." ”
The short and thin man hated: "That old pious woman is not easy to deal with, otherwise I would have broken up this group of soft-footed shrimp a long time ago!"
Zuo Shen also said: "The old woman was hit several times, but it was all fine. ”
The mountain bandits are a group of middle-aged men, but there is a slightly rich old woman mixed in them, which is very conspicuous. Besides, this woman always stood behind the mountain bandit leader and chanted endlessly, and the surrounding trees were turned into puppets by her.
If it weren't for these puppets to resist the attack, the bandits' rout would have been quicker. The people brought by the pacification envoy are well versed in the truth of capturing the thief and capturing the king first, but seven or eight attacks and supernatural powers have hit her, and this woman can still jump up and down to block them, which is not normal.
