They actually came to Mount Bronze Cauldron!
Xie Lian said, "Gu Zi is here.
Is Qi Rong here too? "
Hua Cheng said, "Look at the green light on top of her head.
There's no doubt about it. "
"…"
Gu Zi seemed to be a little afraid of Xuan Ji and didn't dare to move in her arms. But maybe it was because Xuan Ji's cold body was really uncomfortable, so he quietly twisted twice. Xuan Ji said, "Don't move!"
As soon as she opened her mouth,
The muscles on her face became more and more distorted under the illumination of the green will-o '-the-wisp. Will-O '-the-wisp was also one of the symbols of ghosts.
This taste was really terrible.
Xie Lian felt that any female ghost with normal taste and who cared about her image would refuse to put such a green will-o '-the-wisp on her head. Needless to say,
Qi Rong must have asked her to wear it. The green fire and the red dress formed a very visually impactful scene.
This was even more frustrating than the Sect Leader forcing the disciples to wear the incomparably ugly school uniform.
Gu Zi said with tears in his eyes, "Sister, I drank that water.
My stomach feels a little uncomfortable. "
Water? Xie Lian couldn't help but sweat. That underground water was something that corpse-eating rats swam in groups.
Although it wasn't to the extent of being poisoned, children's resistance was weak.
If they drank it, they might have diarrhea. Xuan Ji didn't seem to be the type to like children. She didn't have much patience with him.
She said, "Bear with it. We're already on our way back. "
Their backs melted into the darkness in front of them. Without saying another word, Xie Lian and Hua Cheng quietly followed. Not long after,
They followed Xuan Ji.
After a few turns, they turned into another street. At the end of the street, there was an exceptionally gorgeous house with voices coming from inside.
This must be their destination. Xie Lian and Hua Cheng hid in the dark and rushed to the roof of the house. They looked down through the cracks. Sure enough, Qi Rong was sitting in the middle of the hall of the mansion.
He moved more than ten stone people over and had their heads facing him. Because these stone people were all lying on the ground, it looked like they were prostrating themselves on the ground. As he enjoyed the "worship", he happily gnawed on a bloody arm. There were five or six farmers sitting in the corner. One of them had his head lowered as if he didn't exist. it was Yin Yu!
He was indeed intercepted by Qi Rong. Although none of them were bound by ropes, there was a green will-o '-the-wisp hovering above their heads. Upon closer inspection, those balls of will-o '-wisps were different from the ones on Xuan Ji's head for ornamental purposes. They actually had facial features, and their eyes looked down with a sinister expression, as if they were evil little men closely monitoring the people below.
Xie Lian whispered, "There's something strange about that fire."
Hua Cheng said, "That's Qi Rong's Ghost Fire Lock. After being stared at by the fire, if you dare to escape, they will scream loudly. As long as you activate the incantation, the hostage will be burned to death in an instant. "
Qi Rong was gnawing on his hand with relish when he suddenly heard Xuan Ji's voice from outside: "Daren, I am back."
He threw his hand away and wiped the blood from his mouth. Xie Lian was slightly surprised. What kind of action was this? Afraid of being seen? There was actually a day when Qi Rong was embarrassed to let others see his table manners?
Before Xuan Ji came in, she put down the grains first. Gu Zi rushed in and ran to the front of Qi Rong. He pointed at him and shouted, "Father is secretly eating something bad again!"
Qi Rong said, "No!"
However, Gu Zi said, "I smelled it! If you eat it, your breath will stink! "
Qi Rong blew on his hand a few times. He must have smelled the blood in his mouth. Unable to deny it, he became angry and said, "Damn it! Xuan Ji! Why did you suddenly bring him back? Didn't I tell you to bring him out to wander around a bit while I was eating?! "
Xuan Ji quietly walked in and said, "After he drank the water, he complained that his stomach wasn't feeling well, so I brought him back first. Daren, please don't let me take care of children anymore. I also don't know how to deal with him! "
Qi Rong glared and criticized, "What! Aren't you a female ghost! How could a female ghost not like to take care of children?! You are not qualified! "
Xuan Ji said, "This isn't even my own child!"
Gu Zi grabbed the hem of Qi Rong's clothes and said, "Father, don't eat those things anymore, it's not good … …" Qi Rong was annoyed by him and scolded, "Get out, get out, get out! Don't be a nuisance here, a child is trying to control an adult. Go out and play by yourself! "Gu Zi could only go out to play in the mud. Before he left, he looked at the person in the corner of the house. After he left, Xuan Ji said, "Daren, I really don't understand. If you think this child is troublesome, why did you bring him along? Along the way, he ate, drank, cried and fell sick. If it wasn't for the mountain monsters that gave us a lift, I'm afraid he would still be burdened now. "
Qi Rong chuckled and said, "Since my cheap son insists on calling me father, then let him. Bah, nonsense, of course it's because I want to eat this little idiot! Such a young child's flesh is fresh and tender. It's delicious even without seasoning! Hehehehe … … "
Xuan Ji said, "Then why hasn't Daren eaten yet?"
Qi Rong's eyes glowed green and said, "You don't understand! Fatten him up before killing him! The best is left for last! Besides, we still have so much food stored, there's no hurry! "
Speaking of food stored, Xuan Ji stared at the jade and said, "I think this newly captured person is very suspicious, very suspicious. Daren, have you found out where he came from? "
With Qi Rong's hatred towards Hua Cheng, if he knew that the jade was Hua Cheng's subordinate, wouldn't he be the first to eat him? However, he heard Qi Rong say, "I've asked clearly. This kid also came with Master Rain to help. "
Not having a prominent presence and personality was sometimes a good thing. Normal people wouldn't associate Yin Yu and Blood Rain Tanhua together. It seemed that Yin Yu had successfully fabricated a lie to cover up his identity. Xie Lian heaved a sigh of relief. Xuan Ji's expression changed, "Master Rain has already chased him here?!"
Qi Rong said, "No. This kid is the same as us, he accidentally found this underground city. Master Rain hasn't found us yet. Damn it! "He suddenly cursed," Why is this Master Rain so difficult to deal with? He chased us all the way here and forced us to hide underground! Didn't he just catch a few farmers from this broken village and eat them? Is there a need to be so petty? And he's even a Heavenly Judge. I knew that none of the Heavenly Judges in the Heavenly Court are good! Narrow-Minded! "
He was always so self-righteous. First, he caught the farmers, then he blamed them for being narrow-minded and not giving him more to eat. Xie Lian couldn't help but feel his hands itch when he heard this. Xuan Ji said, "Then should we let these people go?"
Qi Rong felt that this was very embarrassing. He glared at her and said, "No! I've already eaten half of it. It's useless even if we put the other half back. We've already formed a grudge! Either we don't snatch it from the start, or we eat it all! If you push me too far, I'll burn them all down. None of them will have an easy time! "
Xuan Ji said, "I didn't expect things to turn out like this. Master Rain's personality wasn't like this in the past. It's not an exaggeration to say that everyone can be bullied. I thought that even if the people from Master Rain's village were robbed, they would swallow their anger and not dare to make a sound. Who knew that I would get into such big trouble that I can't even get rid of! "
Xuan Ji actually knew Master Rain and didn't seem to think highly of him. It seemed that they had known each other since they were young. Thinking of all the legends, Xie Lian whispered, "Could it be that Xuan Ji is a general of Master Rain's country?"
Hua Cheng said, "Brother guessed correctly. That's right. "
Xie Lian said doubtfully, "But that's not right? Master Rain is a descendant of Master Rain's royal family. His status is noble. Xuan Ji is just a general, a lowly official. How could he dare to look down on someone from the royal family? And he even said that 'everyone can be bullied' … "
At this time, Qi Rong said, "Who cares if he's a Master Rain or a Master Dog. When this Ghost King enters the copper furnace and successfully cultivates, I'll be born in an earth-shattering manner. Everyone in the world will kneel at my feet and eat the mud at my feet! When that time comes, I'll tear down the ghost city and sink Black Water Island. Even Jun Wu will have to give me face and be polite to me, hahahaha … "
"…"
Listening to him boasting and imagining the limitless future, Xie Lian didn't feel anything but want to laugh. Hua Cheng didn't even have the interest to laugh. Qi Rong said to Xuan Ji, "When that time comes, I'll cut off Pei Ming's penis for you to play with. He can only be your slave."
Hearing that name, Xuan Ji clenched his fingers. A trace of anger appeared on his pale face as he said, "No need! As long as you promise to hand him over to me, Xuan Ji will be extremely grateful! "
When it didn't involve Pei Ming, Xuan Ji looked like a normal female ghost. However, when it came to General Pei, Xie Lian saw the shadow of that crazy female ghost from Mount Yu Jun. She actually placed such an absurd hope on Qi Rong. It could only be explained with love making one dizzy. Xie Lian raised his head and said, "San Lang, the Yin Jade and these farmers are in Qi Rong's hands. What should we do?"
Of course, they could directly go in and violently beat up Qi Rong and Xuan Ji. However, those farmers and the Yin Jade were hostages. Qi Rong was a scoundrel. If they hit him and he burned someone to death with a punch, they would be the ones to be passive. If it really was as he said, he might burn them all. Hua Cheng calmly said, "Qi Rong's Ghost Fire Lock has a password. First, think of a way to get the password to unlock it."
Xie Lian said, "Who's going to do it? How? We definitely don't have a way. "
Just as he finished asking, the two people's gazes coincidentally fell on Gu Zi, who was playing in the mud outside the house.
After pausing for a moment, Xie Lian said, "That won't do. It's too dangerous. Qi Rong originally wanted to eat Gu Zi. What if he sees some clues … … "
However, Hua Cheng said, "With that brain of his, it doesn't matter if he can see anything. If he wants to make a move on this child, we can just save the child first. Gege, why don't you worry? This child has been by Qi Rong's side for so long. Has he been assimilated by him? Has his mind become abnormal? "
Xie Lian said, "Judging from Gu Zi's reaction just now, it shouldn't be. Then … … why don't we give it a try? "
Thus, Hua Cheng spread open his five fingers. An exceptionally small silver butterfly flew out from his palm and leisurely flew downwards.
Qi Rong and Xuan Ji continued to talk inside the house while Gu Zi sat on the ground outside and drew a picture. He drew an adult who was holding onto a little person. Suddenly, he saw a butterfly whose entire body was emitting a faint silver light fly over. In an instant, he raised his head and widened his eyes. Just as he was about to cry out, he heard the silver butterfly let out a soft human voice. "Gu Zi, don't speak. If you speak, I'll disappear. It's me. Do you still remember me?"
If Gu Zi continued to shout, Hua Cheng would have the silver butterfly use its light to confuse his mind. However, Gu Zi covered his mouth. Sure enough, he was obedient. In a small voice, he said, "I remember. It's the voice of the rag-and-bone collector, gege. "
"… …" Xie Lian said, "Hahaha, your memory is really good. Yes, that's right, it's me, the rag-and-bone collector. Quietly come over to the side. Don't let Qi … … don't let your father find out. "
