I know that Lao Chang wants revenge, but I also know that his best target right now is not the Miao warrior who killed him, but Gao Yang who has been giving orders.
The result of attacking a warrior is that we expose our back to the opponent. Even if we kill him, we will also die.
But I also know that when it is difficult to achieve complete victory and it is impossible to retreat unscathed, the only thing we can fight for is to "get enough money." Killing him alone is probably enough!
I simply gave up control of my body and let Lao Chang manipulate me to run several meters close to the ground, go around behind the man, and then suddenly stand up and open my mouth to bite the man's neck.
I didn't expect Lao Chang to suddenly use such a seemingly fierce but not necessarily fatal move. When I wanted to help him change his moves, it was too late - my teeth had already bitten into the opponent's artery in a flash. I wanted to bite down hard and tear a piece of flesh from the opponent's neck, but before I could exert force, Lao Chang took me back to the original position quickly and fell to the ground with my head raised.
What is Lao Chang doing
Before I could react, several Miao warriors nearby raised their swords and rushed towards me. This time, Lao Chang not only did not fight back, but swam quickly with me into the bushes.
The Miao warriors who reacted rushed forward, and the strong winds raised by their long swords chopped at my back one after another. However, Lao Chang took me and twisted his body quickly to shuttle back and forth between the blades. Every time, he managed to escape the blade range before the long sword hit the ground and escape between the messy blades and footsteps.
When the flying stones from the long sword hit me continuously, I tried desperately to tell Lao Chang, "Turn around and fight them, even if it means we both die. If we keep hiding like this, we won't get a chance to fight back." But I couldn't say anything...
At the moment when the whistling sound of the knife fell on my side, a dark green color appeared in my sight - half of my body should have been led by Lao Chang into the grass. Once the snake enters the grass, it is difficult to find its trace. Is Lao Chang going to take me away
Just as I was thinking, someone suddenly stepped on my vest, and I stopped involuntarily, like a poisonous snake with its neck stuck. Although I was still twisting my body desperately, I couldn't get rid of the other person's foot.
I only heard Gao Yang say with a hint of doubt: "This man also has a poison? It seems to be a spiritual poison... How is Ah Shun?"
Someone answered: "He's dead, poisoned by a snake."
Gao Yang said softly: "It is indeed a spiritual Gu. Take him away as well."
Several Miao warriors tied my hands and feet together behind my back, and carried me deep into the forest with a wooden stick.
Only then did Lao Chang's voice ring in my head. He chuckled and said, "This is all I can do for you. How about it, Lao Chang is not bad, right? Take care of yourself... You still have some money, right? Lend it to me to rest for a while."
As soon as Lao Chang finished speaking, I felt his soul slowly leaving me and quietly sneaking into the ghost-eye money hidden on my body.
Lao Chang said he was helping me
I see.
The corpse driver, Gui Qi, Gao Yang and the others were fighting each other, weren't they all fighting for the poisonous insect hidden in one of us
Gao Yang initially thought that the poisonous insect in my body was not something he could consider, so he was ready to give up on me.
But at this time, Lao Chang sacrificed his life and attached himself to me, giving Gao Yang the illusion that I also had the spiritual Gu in my body, which made Gao Yang spare my life.
The reason why Gao Yang was fooled was because he was too familiar with the poison. After Lao Chang possessed me, he had been using snake-like means of attack; especially after biting the warrior's neck, he chose to escape immediately. Isn't this the habit of poisonous snakes attacking large opponents
Gao Yang is undoubtedly an expert in using Gu, but the more proficient a person is in Gu poison, the less likely he is to leave Miaojiang easily. He may have heard of the Northeast Great Immortal, but he may not have seen it with his own eyes. Although Gao Yang saw Lao Chang's true form, he would regard Lao Chang as a Gu worm, or the host of some kind of Gu worm, rather than the possession of a great immortal because of his habitual thinking.
More importantly, Gao Yang and the other two were looking for an extremely special poisonous insect, so he would not give up any possibility and would definitely keep me.
Could Lao Chang have calculated all this
From what I know about him, he is obviously not a person who is good at calculating, nor is he a fairy who is good at predicting the future. He can't predict this step.
Little white sugar
Although Lao Chang possessed my body, I am not a poisonous snake and I cannot possibly have venom in my mouth. How could the warrior whose neck I bit died of poisoning? Did Xiao Baitang do something to me
impossible!
Lao Chang and his people are very cautious and will not trust others easily. He has not been in contact with Xiao Baitang for a long time and will not risk his life to listen to her arrangements.
Lu Xiaoying? Yes!
The only person who could make such an arrangement was Lu Xiaoying. She was the only one among us who could predict the future with her extraordinary ability, who could plan countermeasures in advance, and who could gain Lao Chang's trust.
The "Heaven-Defying Hand" should also have a secret technique similar to the "Ghost Eye Money" to tamper with the fate, but Lu Xiaoying did not tamper with the fate, but tampered with the chance of life. She should have forcibly reversed a glimmer of hope when we were doomed to die. Is this what the "Heaven-Defying Hand" means
The god's hand is trying to save his life, while the ghost's money is trying to usurp the throne
Could this be the reason why the Lord of Connections allowed the gods and ghosts to come together
While thoughts were racing through my mind, the Miao warriors had already climbed over several hills as if walking on flat ground and brought us into a mountain village built against the rocks.
I looked around the lifeless village. Apart from the warriors blocking the village gate and a few Miao girls carrying Gu pots, I didn't see any signs of residents' activities. But this village didn't seem to be abandoned for a long time. The villagers here were either forcibly expelled or had been killed.
Gao Yang directed his men, "Put them all down, take off the zombie-dissolving powder on their bodies, and drive them all to the cave entrance. Don't take away their weapons, just let them hold them. They can't do anything to them anyway."
Gao Yang's confidence was not without reason. Even if we had weapons in our hands, we were just lambs to be slaughtered in front of the Gu poison master, with no room for resistance.
When we were driven to the entrance of a cave, Gao Yang smiled and said, "You should be familiar with this cave, right? Go in and stay in there for a few more days. As long as you are not dead, I will let you go."
Just as I was about to turn around, I was pushed hard by someone. The person spoke in Miao language, which I didn't understand, but I guess he said "go quickly".
After I walked more than 50 meters into the cave, I could no longer see the light at the entrance. The air in the cave was also filled with humid water vapor. I thought I was going deeper into the cave. I turned on my flashlight and shone it into the sky.
When the situation nearby is unclear, it is best to shine the flashlight upwards to let the soft beam illuminate the nearby space, rather than directly waving the flashlight at a certain place. Because some things hidden in the shadows can easily lose control in the shock of strong light, and we will also pay unimaginable sacrifices for this.
I held the flashlight upright on the ground: "Come over here one by one. I want to see how many people are left."
Jiang Yan and his men walked past the flashlight beam one after another, and they were missing four people. Lu Xiaoying, Ye Jin, Shi Heshang, and Xiao Baitang were all there, but Lao Chang was missing.
I couldn't help but look at Xiao Baitang: "What happened to you and Lao Chang just now?"
Xiao Baitang said, "I was going to turn around and intercept the corpse driver's men, but as soon as I rushed into the bushes, I felt like a needle pricked my ankle, and then I knew nothing."
Xiao Baitang's experience was similar to what I thought. She encountered the Miao warriors earlier than I did. I said in a deep voice, "Jiang Yan, have you been here before?"
"I I..." Jiang Yan's lips trembled and he couldn't speak for a long time.
My face suddenly darkened: "You'd better tell me the truth. At this point, if you still hide it, you're courting death."
Jiang Yan sighed and said, "I'm telling you the truth! This place is our last stop. We came here to see the Fallen Flower Cave Girl. At that time, the cave girl was in this cave, just... lying on a stone bed in front."
I turned my head and looked towards the dark cave: "And then? What did you do to the cave girl?"
Jiang Yan whispered: "We...we took the cave girl out."
"What did you say?" Ye Jin was furious and reached out to pull Jiang Yan up: "What else do you want to do? You are courting death by taking the cave girl out!"
"Ye Jin, let him go first." I said in a deep voice, "Jiang Yan, tell us what happened when you took the cave girl out. Don't leave out a single word."
"Yeah!" Jiang Yan wiped her tears and said, "Before we came in, I thought the tour guide was going to take us to see wax figures or something like that. Who knew that after we came in, there was actually a real living girl here. That girl is very beautiful, more beautiful than any girl I have ever seen."
"I asked the tour guide what would happen after the cave girl married the cave god. He said that the cave girl would die because she had already dedicated herself to the god and would have to stay here forever to serve the god."
"The tour guide said that the girl was his childhood sweetheart and that he came here to exchange himself for her. He knelt down in front of us and begged us to take her away."
When Ye Jin heard this, he was so angry that he roared wildly: "You agreed? You are so pitiful and gentle, and you believe in love with empathy? The reason you have a brain is to breathe and eat? That is Luohuadongnv, do you know? This is Miaojiang, do you know? You are looking for death!" (To be continued)
