Chapter 172: A dilemma

Bai Shu walked up to the woman and made a silent gesture, the woman understood, nodded, Bai Shu squatted down, and carefully examined the rope tied to her.

"The rope seems to be a little too tight. Bai Shu looked at these ropes, he tried to loosen them, but found that the ropes did not loosen at all, but tightened more and more, and the woman's expression became more and more painful, which made Bai Shu a little surprised.

Bai Shu looked at the stone spear in his hand, he wanted to cut the rope, "This stone spear?" Bai Shu frowned, "Where did Wuchen go? ”

"Wait, wait......" When Bai Shu was about to cut the rope with a stone spear, the woman spoke, as if begging, "Don't touch this rope......"

"What's wrong?" Seeing the woman speak, Bai Shu asked softly, "Why can't you touch this rope?"

"These ...... The rope is the high priest...... High Priest ...... Crafted with divine power. The woman replied with a painful look on her face, "If you forcibly cut it by brute force or force, the rope will be tightened ......."

"Huh?" Hearing this, Bai Shu frowned, thinking in his heart, "What is the divine power she said, what is the strength of this high priest?"

"Then what is divine power?" Bai Shu asked suspiciously, Bai Shu didn't touch the rope again, so the woman was not as painful as before.

"Divine power...... The woman was silent for a moment before speaking, "Divine power is the power that Lord Hanyue bestowed on the high priests of the tribe, and it is very powerful. You can call for wind and rain, you can open mountains and gravel, etc., the high priest uses this divine power to protect the tribe and let the tribe develop. ”

"Huh?" Bai Shu nodded, and spoke again, "Have you ever seen the high priest's so-called divine power, and what is it like?"

"I've seen it. The woman nodded and said, "Whenever the High Priest uses divine power, we can feel a strong fluctuation, and then there seems to be a strong wind blowing. ”

"Fluctuation?gale?" Bai Shu frowned, his eyes immediately moved, and he muttered to himself, "Is this divine power ......?"

"If that's the case, then what is the strength of this high priest?" Bai Shu thought to himself.

After a while, Bai Shu opened his mouth and asked, "You said that this rope was made by the high priest with divine power, don't you use other raw materials?"

"Hmm. The woman nodded, "The raw material of this rope is a plant called thistle that grows in the east of the tribe, and the high priest just injected divine power into the rope......"

"I see. Bai Shu nodded, and then asked, "What do you think of being a sacrifice to Lord Cold Moon?"

The woman was silent, bowing her head and not saying a word.

"Are you willing to be a sacrifice to Lord Cold Moon?" Bai Shu smiled.

"It's my honor to be a sacrifice to Lord Cold Moon...... the woman said softly.

"Huh. Bai Shu smiled faintly and said, "Why deceive yourself?"

"I, I didn't. The woman softly denied.

Bai Shu shook his head and smiled, "Your eyes have betrayed you, and there is a strong desire to live in your eyes. ”

"I ......," the woman stopped talking.

"I know, you want to say that you were born in the lunar year, and you are a sacrificer, and if you can become a sacrifice to Lord Cold Moon, you will receive eternal life in another way, and your family will also be blessed. Bai Shu said.

"Hmm......" the woman nodded, "So, it's my responsibility to be a sacrifice to Lord Cold Moon." ”

"Fool. Bai Shu shook his head and said, "Even if you become sacrifices, your family will not receive the blessings of Lord Cold Moon, and you will not gain eternal life, because Lord Cold Moon is just one person." ”

"Nope. The woman hurriedly shook her head, "Don't say it, beware of bringing disaster to you, we are all unfortunate people, and anyone who comes into contact with us will die inexplicably in the end, like ice." ”

"There is no one of calamity. Bai Shu shook his head and continued, "My sister, she is in the same situation as yours, she has that extremely cold physique, that is, the Taiyin physique, however, she did not bring me calamity, she is not a sacrifice, she lives happily every day, I like to see her smile like a spring breeze, it will give people strength, it will make people feel at ease......"

Speaking of this, Bai Shu smiled, revealing a sunny and handsome smile.

Seeing this, the woman was slightly stunned, lowered her head, and her face was slightly red.

Bai Shu continued, "No one wants to die, you are the same as everyone else, there is no difference, the Taiyin physique is not your calamity, but your good fortune......"

Hearing this, the woman's eyes moved slightly, her lips opened, and she didn't say anything.

"Do you know why I'm only looking for you and not a few others?" Bai Shu asked.

The woman shook her head and said, "I don't know, maybe it's a coincidence?"

"Huh. Bai Shu smiled and said, "There are three reasons. First, I always feel that I have seen you somewhere, and my heart tells me that I must save you, otherwise, I will regret it. Second, your eyes, your eyes are different from them, you want to live, you hope that someone will save you, and several of them, with empty eyes, have already determined the ending, which is the most fundamental reason why I saved you. ”

"As for the third ......," Bai Shu paused, "It's too cruel to sacrifice a living person......

Hearing this, the woman did not speak, was silent for a moment, and asked, "This rope has been infused with divine power by the high priest, how do you plan to save me?"

"Huh. Bai Shu smiled faintly, "Divine power naturally needs to be broken with divine power." ”

"Huh?" The woman looked at Bai Shu in surprise, not knowing why Bai Shu said this.

Bai Shu smiled faintly, and a spiritual power in the chaotic golden sea slowly overflowed, gradually enveloping Bai Shu's body.

"This is divine power?" the woman looked at Bai Shu in surprise and said, "How can you also have divine power?"

Bai Shu just smiled and didn't speak, Bai Shu gathered the spiritual power in his hand, and then, with a slight touch, the rope on the woman's body was untied.

"You get up first. Bai Shu said, "We have to get out of here as soon as it gets night." ”

"Your divine power is golden, unlike the High Priests. The woman said, "Could it be that you are from another tribe?"

"Do you think I look like me?" Bai Shu smiled faintly and asked rhetorically.

"Not really. The woman shook her head, "I have a feeling that you're not from here. ”

"Hehe, your instincts are good. Bai Shu smiled and nodded.

"It's not a gut feeling, it's just a feeling, you're a little weird. The woman spoke, "Your divine power does not seem to be as strong as the fluctuations of the high priest...... If we're going to go, we're going to do it before dawn......"

"How strong is the high priest's divine power?" Bai Shu asked with a smile.

"It's strong, much stronger than yours. The woman spoke, as if she was worried that Bai Shu would feel inferior, so she continued, "However, the high priest has practiced all his life, and you are still young, you can have such divine power, you must be very powerful in the future, and even be able to surpass the high priest......

In this regard, Bai Shu just smiled faintly and did not speak, Bai Shu guessed well, the so-called divine power is just spiritual power, as for how strong it is, it still depends on your own realm, the higher the realm, the stronger it is.

"By the way, girl, what should I call you?" Bai Shu asked with a smile.

"It's good to call Lingwu Xuan. The woman replied.

"Ling Xuan?" Bai Shu nodded and smiled, "Not bad name, my name is Bai ...... Bai Jiuxiao ......"

"Hmm. The woman nodded, "Thank you Lord Bai Jiuxiao for saving your life......"

Bai Shu smiled and said, "Let's go, let's leave the Xuanyue tribe first." ”

So, the two quietly walked out of the tribe.

Taking advantage of the somewhat bleak night, the two quietly left.

Suddenly, in front of Bai Shu and Ling Xuan, a large group of people walked out and surrounded the two, as if they had been ambushed in advance.

"How come?" Seeing this, Bai Shu frowned, looked back, and saw that Shi Cangyuan was long gone, how smart Bai Shu was, he naturally knew what was going on, and said to himself, "Is it?"

"Hehehe. At this time, a voice came from the crowd, "Shi Cangyuan is right, this kid is really a spy of other tribes." ”

Following the sound, it turned out to be the person named Chang Xun, and beside him was the Shi Cangyuan, who was nodding and currying favor with Chang Xun.

"Well done. Chang Xun said to Shi Cangyuan, "If it weren't for your notification, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to catch the spies of these other tribes, and we wouldn't be able to let tomorrow's sacrifice go on normally, in this case." The high priest must have been angry that we didn't have any good fruit to eat at that time. ”

After that, Chang Xun squinted his eyes slightly and asked, "Boy, which tribe are you? What do you want to do when you come here to take away our sacrifices? If you are willing to invite you truthfully, I can also give you a happy death." ”

Bai Shu ignored Chang Xun, and just asked Shi Cangyuan coldly, "When did you notify them, and how did you notice it?"

"I noticed it just when you promised me not to return the shells, and when you proposed to help them with the Taiyin constitution, I was sure. So, when you rest, I'll already go and inform Tsune-sama. Shi Cangyuan replied.

"Why?" asked with a frown.

"Huh. Shi Cangyuan smiled, "I grew up with Bai Jiuxiao since childhood, so I naturally know him very well. First, Lao Bai loves money like his life, so it is impossible for me to delay time. At that time, I thought that you were a little depressed because of the affairs of the Holy Maiden, so I didn't ask much, but I still kept an eye on it. ”

"Second, Lao Bai never called me Brother Shi, but called Shi, which deepened my suspicions. Shi Cangyuan continued.

"Thirdly, and most importantly, Lao Bai hates people with the Taiyin constitution the most, because his family members died from the attacks of the people with the Taiyin constitution, so it is impossible for him to help them. Shi Cangyuan smiled.

"So, where is the real Lao Bai?" Shi Cangyuan was a little angry, "You killed Lao Bai, I will make you pay for your life." ”

"I see. Bai Shu smiled, "It turns out that I was exposed from the beginning, and I thought how good my acting skills were." ”

"But ......" Bai Shu smiled, "I'm really not from other tribes, I'm really Bai Jiuxiao." ”

Hearing this, Shi Cangyuan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Hehe, nonsense, how can I not recognize the real Bai Jiuxiao, you have to hide it from me, you are just taking a step back is death, and taking a step forward is also death, so I want to pretend to be the real Lao Bai, you must be a spy of other tribes......"

"Oh?" Bai Shu smiled faintly, "Yes, it's a dilemma." ”
