Chapter 53: Escapism
And a lot of gray-white insects were snaking out of the skeleton's eyes.
Immediately, countless cracks appeared on the surface of the skeleton, and more gray-white insects poured out of those cracks, and if someone glanced into the basin at this time, it would not be difficult to see that the "things" contained in the skeleton were far larger than the skeleton itself, and it was not surprising that the skeleton was propped up and cracked apart, first deformed not like a skeleton but like a rotten and fluffy dough, and then turned into a pile of gray-white powder sprinkled on the surface of countless small insects.
Paegon Toast didn't see anything unusual in the basin, he splashed the water on the floor, sighed again, and decided to have a few more glasses of wine before the meal.
But even if he had done so, the strange and mournful prayers of that day echoed in his ears still echoed in his memory, as if they had echoed in his skull, and he fled to the drunken land not because he pursued sensual indulgence like ordinary drunkards, but because he knew how powerless his cunning, his cunning, his cunning, his wealth and power as the headman, were in the presence that had once captured him. It is impossible to be an enemy of it, and since all he can do is escape, the most convenient way in the near future is undoubtedly to flee to the drunken country.
Sadly, the method of sending Gang Toast is not useful to Xiao Zaiping, the wine shop in Shuanghe County has been stopped under Xiao Ruyun's order, and the wine stored in large households and small shops is not in their eyes, Xiao Zaiping still remembers the order of the ancestor, and has done some work to repair the city wall, and the other two family elders can only use the whole day of strife to dispel time. Fortunately, the day before yesterday, the two of them finally came up with a result, someone must go to Qiyun Peak to see what is going on, as for the candidates, they are naturally the lowest status, the lowest mana, and Xiao Ruyun, who has the most no way to resist their orders.
When Xiao Ruyun heard this, she opened her eyes again, thinking that if there were only three of them who had been cultivating for many years and a beggar who was about to die, they would also send beggars to "go to Qiyun Peak to explore the way".
Before she could reply, Xiao Yongkui scolded: "What do you mean by this attitude? I have been an 'immortal official' for a few days, and I have been worshiped by mortals, I really think that I am a character, and I can disobey the dispatch of the family elders? Although the situation on Qiyun Peak is not clear now, and the ancestors do not know where to go, I expect that I can still practice family law and kill a county official!"
Xiao Zaihe hurriedly persuaded on the side: "There is something to say - the pathfinder must be unobtrusive and come and go quietly, the more low the mana, the more ...... at this time"
The two of them were angry, and the other was kind and coaxing, and they didn't mention a word that the idea of exploring the way was originally made by themselves, but now they want Xiao Ruyun to go to the top tank.
Xiao Ruyun grew up in the end of the family on Qiyun Peak since she was a child, and she has already seen a lot of these things in the family, and at this moment, seeing the elders performing like this, she didn't squeak, Xiao Yongkui Xiao Zaihe thought that she still wanted to shirk as an immortal official, but if she hadn't bitten her lip, she would have laughed out loud at this moment!
Do they really think it's safe to hide here?
Do they really think that a little intimidation can make people do things with a dead heart?
These tricks that are inferior to Mengban have been able to succeed in the past, not because of their rhetoric, nor because they are representatives of the upstream family! Someone has given them support! Even their cultivation is also not worth mentioning, the same resources in the family, the good ones are distributed to them first, and the broken ones are distributed to others! If Hua Lin has such resources as them, at such an age, I am afraid that he is not a true immortal! No, even if he is not a true immortal, he will definitely not do such a thing! It's one thing to let cannon fodder step on a trap, the stakes are so high, and if you don't go into battle in person, you think that sending a few low-status people out can keep you safe in a place where it's not even a hole, how ridiculous it is!
Xiao Zai chatted with Xu Xu for a while, Xiao Yongkui was already impatient, seeing that Xiao Ruyun didn't look like he wanted to agree, he took out a thing from his sleeve, which seemed to be a green willow leaf, with white light on it, and a faint sound of wind and thunder, which was a magic weapon he used daily.
"Don't worry, for example, Ruyun is most likely to let this Shuanghe County go," Xiao Zaiping, who had been hiding aside, saw Xiao Yongkui take out the magic weapon, and he was so frightened that the sweat also came out, he was reluctant to come out, but it was one thing to be more than a dead person, and killing people on weekdays still exceeded the scale he could accept, not to mention, he was faintly aware that as a family member at the end of the same family, he was lowly cultivated, and he had the name of a family elder, and Xiao Ruyun was afraid that in the eyes of these two people, he was afraid that it would be about the same status, and when they sent Xiao Ruyun away, the next thunder light was afraid that it would not fall on him! So I was reluctant and helpless, but I still stood up at this time and said a few words that I sincerely said for Xiao Ruyun: "Besides, if she goes, she won't have the magic weapon to travel the long way - the waterways are frozen, and the official ships are not easy to use." ”
"Isn't it just a county seat!" Xiao Yongkui shouted: "These mortals, what are they worth! ”
"You held the Shuanghe Sword for her," Xiao Zaihe rolled his eyes and said, "I have a magic weapon that I don't need right now, and I can send her to Qiyun Peak." ”
"Since the elders are so thoughtful for Ruyun, Ruyun is the one who takes the order. Xiao Ruyun's lips flashed a sneer, replied respectfully, and casually untied the Shuanghe Sword that had not left for a moment since he was ordered, and handed it over to Xiao Zaiping, Xiao Zaiping took the sword that represented the power of a county, and his face was a smile that he couldn't cry for, and the whole person seemed to have broken his bones by this sword, not for anything else, because of the words just now, he finally understood that Xiao Ruyun was gone, and he was the lowest-ranking person in the Shuanghe Immortal family!
Therefore, when Xiao Ruyun set off, Xiao Zaiping privately gave her a few magic weapons, a number of elixir charms, and many cautious words to return quickly, for fear that she would not be able to come back.
Xiao Ruyun was not polite to the things that were sent to her hands, and took them all, and Xiao Zai and Xiao Yongkui obviously had more magic weapons, except for one given that day, they didn't make up for it, as if this matter had nothing to do with them, Xiao Ruyun didn't go to reason with them, and after explaining all his official affairs to Xiao Zaihe one by one, he set off towards Qiyun Peak without looking back.
