Chapter 175: Burning to Extort a Confession
When Maiyu heard her uncle's answer, she didn't ask any questions, but she was determined in her heart to find out about this matter. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info It's not the most important thing to track down this matter, the most important thing is to find a way to enter the city to exchange for the blood jade, otherwise when Nuwa Niangniang summons her, she will be punished. But how can we get into the troubled waters without attracting the attention of the officers and men guarding them? Wu You racked his brains and still couldn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds.
She looked at her uncle, who was wandering back and forth, and asked her uncle with a polite smile: "Uncle, we have to find a way to go into the city first in exchange for blood jade!
"You'er, you're still too young, and you don't have a strong grasp of many things, think about it, why are they wanted and arresting you? It must have a lot to do with the last time you came to Ba County. The two sticks shook their heads and looked at her earnestly.
"But uncle, I really didn't commit any law last time?" Wuyou still couldn't think of the right reason for the officers and soldiers to want and arrest her.
"Don't be anxious, they won't tell you the truth because they went into the city and saw your wanted warrant. But if I ask, I'm sure they'll tell you the truth. The two sticks patted her on the shoulder and signaled her not to be nervous.
"Yes, uncle, how could I not have thought of that?"
"You'er, I won't tell you my inference for the time being, I'll tell you when I come back after I ask, and see if my guess is accurate. ā
Maiyu nodded at his uncle.
"I almost forgot, you'd better cover yourself, otherwise all my plans will be broken when the officers and soldiers guarding the checkpoint will find out. ā
Wuyou smiled and nodded: "Uncle, what you said is true." ā
The two sticks motioned with their hands for her to twist her head to one side, facing the distance on the side of the road.
At this moment, she was standing there alone, looking at the mountains and hills, and she couldn't help but worry a little about Zhao Yi in her mind, although the Spirit King didn't receive him in the room, but who took him to where he went? I really hope he can be fine.
Erzhu and Wuyou not only did not get the blood jade on this side of Ba County, but were besieged here by officers and soldiers. But at this time, Zhangjia Village was in chaos.
Ziyun found out that they had fallen for the trick of the Spirit King, and hurried back to Zhangjia Village.
Unexpectedly, they rushed back to the village, and the streets were full of chaos and dilapidation, as if Ziyun and the village chief had been gone for months, all in ruin, and desolate. At this moment, the village chief and Ziyun were worried, a little nervous and depressed, and there was no one on the street, like a lifeless, deserted village with no vitality at all. Looking at the streets they passed, they couldn't help but quicken their pace and run towards the village chief's house.
When they arrived at the door of the house, the gate of the compound was wide open, and there were still many broken tiles falling from the houses on the ground at the door, and the village chief looked at Ziyun with a pair of almost desperate eyes, and said with a long sigh: "Dao Chief, hey......"
"Village Chief, it's okay, let's go in and have a look!"
The village chief nodded at him, they ran and rushed in, there were broken tiles everywhere on the ground, they searched all rooms, but they never saw the village chief's wife and Zhao Yi.
They hurriedly ran out to look for it, the Ziyun Dao Chief shouted Zhao Yi's name, and the village chief called his wife.
But no one in the village came out to tell them where they had gone, and they continued to search and shout in the streets.
They shouted as they found a small alley, which was so narrow that it should be so rare that few people usually came here, and there were piles of straw against the wall everywhere.
A person lifted the straw and flashed in front of the village chief and Ziyun at once, and they were taken aback.
The man hurriedly said: "Village chief, you are finally here, no, your wife has been captured by the Spirit King and taken to the ghost forest next to Zhangjia Village, where she is going to be burned to death." ā
The village chief was almost frightened by his words and fainted, but Ziyun hurriedly helped him to stand firm.
"What about the people in the town?" said Daoist Ziyun as he looked at the person in front of him and hurriedly asked.
"They were all ordered by the Spirit King to be taken to the Ghost Forest, and what did he say to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys. The man replied.
"No, village chief, I have to go and save them. ā
"Okay, then I'll thank you first!"
"You're welcome. Daoist Ziyun looked at the village chief and said.
"Then did you see the young man who fought the Spirit King a few days ago?" Ziyun looked at the man again, still a little worried, and asked the man with some worries.
"Dao Chief, it was because the Spirit King didn't find him and couldn't do anything to him, so he was very angry that he arrested the village chief's wife, saying that she hid him. The man looked at the Purple Cloud Daoist and didn't lie at all.
"I see. Now you are here to take care of the village chief, and I will go to rescue the villagers and the village chief's wife. The second stick gave him a task.
With that, the Purple Cloud Imperial Sword cast a spell from the ground and flew towards the Ghost Forest. The village chief looked at him, hoping that he would be able to save all the people smoothly.
It didn't take long for the Purple Cloud Daoist to arrive at the Ghost Forest, and when he heard smoke and bustling voices coming from the forest, he hurriedly cast a spell to land the fairy sword, and waited for the best time to rescue everyone.
"Otherwise, let's die with them!" said the villagers, unable to do so, so they beat each other up in the crowd.
"We are all waiting and seeing, because the village chief and the purple cloud chief have not yet returned, if the fire burns to the feet of the lady, they have not yet appeared, we will fight with them. They whispered to each other and spoke.
The Spirit King looked at the village chief's wife, turned his head to the villagers, and said to them, "This is the end of going against us, everyone can see it clearly?
The village chief's wife was afraid that everyone would be frightened by the Spirit King's torture of her like this, so she gave in to the Spirit King, so she hurriedly cheered everyone up: "Don't be afraid of them, I'm fine, even if I am burned to death, we will drive them back to their world, and we can't tell them Zhao Gongzi's whereabouts, because we really don't know where he went." ā
