Waiting for Luo Qingyan to say that they passed the swamp, it was completely dark.
In the tree house on the big tree in the distance, there are lights.
"It's finally here." The dark guard breathed a sigh of relief: "Wait for us to arrest the leader of the witch man, force them to hand over the antidote that can save His Highness the Prince, and then go to detoxify His Highness and rescue him. Enough."
"Let's be careful. These witches know witchcraft, and the Gu insects are very vicious. Not a single plant, tree, or insect in this place can be taken lightly. It's also strange..."
The dark guard who spoke licked his lips: "These witches have lived at the southern border of Ningxia and Ningxia for generations, and we have always been in harmony with us. Why did they suddenly take our prince away and feed him Gu worms?"
Outside, Luo Qingyan has never been very constrained by the hidden guards in his hands. Hearing what they said, a gloomy look flashed in Luo Qingyan's eyes: "No matter what they are for or what they want, since we are here , you can’t go back without success.”
"That's natural. You don't need to tell the master, we know it too. If these witches don't hand over the antidote, we'll just take this witch clan at once." The dark guard responded: "It's just that their Gu insects are really powerful. Everyone must be careful."
"Speaking of Gu worms, it's really a bit strange. It's clearly early summer. At this time, the sky is already dark, and it should be the time when the crickets are making noise, but here, it seems that it's too quiet... a bit too much."
Luo Qingyan pursed his lips: "It's too quiet."
As soon as Luo Qingyan's words fell, a drum sounded suddenly, and then all the trees around were lit up with lights.
Luo Qingyan frowned.
"Why did the lights on the tree suddenly turn on? Could it be that there was someone in the tree that we didn't notice?"
The dark guards all raised their eyes to look at the surrounding trees, but even though the lights were on, they couldn't see anything because the branches and leaves were too thick to cover the trees tightly.
"nobody."
Luo Qingyan's voice was calm and unwavering, but cold: "If there is someone in the tree, we will definitely be able to find it."
"Although witches are good at witchcraft and voodoo, their martial arts are really mediocre. If they hide in a tree, we will definitely be able to detect it."
The dark guard nodded: "I'm afraid it's some sorcery."
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw countless people coming out of the tree houses, all lighting torches, looking at Luo and whispering to them: "Guests from afar, welcome!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a woman covered in silver ornaments and covered her face with a door curtain coming out of the group of people: "Welcome to the Wu Clan, we have prepared a welcome banquet for all distinguished guests, please Come and enjoy, everyone."
"Master?" Luo Qingyan asked the hidden guard behind him in a low voice.
Luo Qingyan pursed his lips: "Let's go, we've all been discovered by now. Go, I'm afraid we won't be able to get away. Since we can't get away, then let's go to the leader of the witch clan in a good and fair manner. Let's talk. I'd like to know what they... are planning. What... are they going to do?"
Luo Qingyan put back the unsheathed sword and walked straight towards the tree where the woman was.
Countless eyes fell on Luo Qingyan and his party, their eyes were cold, like a snake letter.
Luo Qingyan ignored it, and walked straight to the woman.
It was just far away, and the woman was still covered with a curtain, Luo Qingyan didn't know her age, and thought she was the leader of the witch clan.
Now that I walked in, I realized that this woman was unexpectedly young.
If he guessed correctly, this woman is probably around twenty years old.
With such a young age, it is unlikely that he is the leader of this witch clan.
"I want to see your leader."
There was a bit of charm in the woman's eyes, and she looked at Luo Qingyan from bottom to top with her eyes, and finally fell on Luo Qingyan's face, with a teasing voice: "I... am the leader of the Wu Clan .”
Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows, just looked at her casually, without making a sound.
The woman walked around Luo Qingyan, and moved her head towards Luo Qingyan.
Just about a meter away from Luo Qingyan, he was stopped by the sword that was suddenly unsheathed by the dark guard.
The woman laughed: "Why are you so nervous? It's just that our Wu Clan hasn't had any guests for a long time, so I'm just curious. Curious, what's the difference between the people outside and our Wu Clan. Curious... this The king of a country in the Xia Kingdom, doesn't it taste better..."
Luo Qingyan's eyes suddenly sank.
After he left the palace, he had actually been pretending all the time. He didn't change his appearance, just made some disguises. Ordinary people who were not very familiar with him would not be able to recognize him at all even if they saw him suddenly, but these words The woman who claimed to be the leader of the witch tribe called out his name with her mouth open.
Luo Qingyan glanced at the woman: "I heard that the Wu Clan is very mysterious. For hundreds of years, they have been sticking to one side and isolated this place from the world, making the Wu Clan a rumor in the hearts of ordinary people."
"The art of witchcraft has always been feared outside. Even in the royal palace, the art of witchcraft is regarded as a forbidden art. It has been hundreds of years since no one from the witch clan has left here to contact the outside world. But I never thought that all of this, It's an illusion."
"It turns out that it is not isolated from the world, but also has its own ambitions..."
Luo Qingyan looked into the woman's eyes firmly: "I don't know, who is the person who is in contact with the Wu Clan? What benefits did it give you?"
The woman laughed like a silver bell: "Your Majesty told me this to tell us that if others promise us any benefits, can you double promise us?"
"It's okay." Luo Qingyan pursed his lips: "Since you know my identity, you naturally know that in this world, the only person who can promise you the greatest benefits is me."
The woman smiled and said, "If I, the Wu Clan, want to go out of the mountains, don't want to live in seclusion in this corner, but want to let the world know our existence, and even get a place in the court."
"Can."
Luo Qingyan's face was indifferent, and there was only one word, but it was loud.
When the woman heard the words, the smile on her face became even brighter: "Our witch family tree has not come out of the mountain for a hundred years, and we have no foundation outside at all. Even if we enter the court, we can only be bullied. But Our temper is not very good, I am afraid that the trouble will not end."
"I have an idea..."
Luo Qingyan's face was still calm: "Say."
"If you can... marry me as queen..."
