Zhan You nodded with satisfaction, "Go and send this person to the altar, call all the villagers, this wizard will start the process now!"
"Yes, little one, let's go." The two of them carried Shuo Ling to the center of the altar and went to gather the villagers.
At this time, Shuo Ling opened his eyes slightly. He was now in the center of the altar. There were some strange stones on the ground with some incomprehensible runes painted on them. There were torches around. Following the light, he could vaguely see the wizard mixing some water. .
At this time, villagers came to stand under the altar one after another, with expressionless faces, looking extremely weird!
After hearing the wizard's order, all the villagers standing under the altar knelt down, as if they were being controlled.
At this time, the wizard said again, "Please drink the holy water."
I saw one person picking up the water that the wizard had prepared and walking towards the altar, kowtowing step by step.
Shuo Ling continued to pretend to be unconscious, but he wanted to see what tricks these people were going to do.
The man came up to him, read some words in an unintelligible language, then lifted him up and poured holy water into his mouth.
He also opened his mouth, but he never swallowed the water.
After the man stepped off the altar, Shuo Ling spit out the holy water in his mouth.
At this time, the wizard in the audience announced that the sacrifice had officially begun.
At this time, the wizard held his cane and danced wildly in the air, chanting incantations. The torches under the altar lit up out of thin air, and disappeared in an instant!
The moment the fire light came on, the wizard's face was clearly reflected in Shuo Ling's eyes.
He looked to be in his early thirties, wearing a wizard uniform, and looked extremely mysterious, but his actions seemed extremely funny to Shuo Ling.
At this time, I saw him pointing his cane at the villagers under the altar and saying, "Kowtow to the gods."
After the villagers under the altar heard this, they saluted him on the altar like a puppet, as if his head was not theirs, and made a thumping sound on the ground!
Looking at so many villagers who were being controlled, Shuo Ling felt that the matter was not that simple. He couldn't see what the purpose of this wizard was? But his intuition told him that this matter must have something to do with the wizard.
Shuo Ling wanted to stay and see what the wizard would do to him next, but at this moment, he felt a cramp in his stomach. After a while, the pain still lingered, so he decided to come here first.
Now that I know what the problem is, I will follow this clue to investigate the next thing. Taking advantage of the village name to kneel in worship, Shuo Ling stood up, put his toes on his feet, and flew to the tree behind the altar!
When the wizard saw this, he was stunned for a moment! He looked at the two people who came back to capture Shuoling with cold eyes, "How could this happen?"
"Little... little... I don't know, this person has obviously fallen under our spell and is unconscious. How could... how could..." The two of them suddenly panicked.
Zhan You interrupted the two of them, "Okay, hurry up and let the villagers chase! If this person ruins our plan, everyone will lose their heads!"
"Yes, yes, little one, let's go right away." After saying that, the two of them started to organize the villagers.
Shuo Ling walked on the road based on his memory, but found that the road was very different from the way he came. There were many forks in the road. Could it be that there was a enchantment array around the altar!
Thinking like this, he heard a voice behind him. It must be the wizard who sent people to catch him and take him back. In a hurry, Shuo Ling thought that although he didn't know which way it was, these villagers knew it, so he ducked to the grass beside him. Behind the pile.
As he expected, the villagers who came to look for him all walked along the same road. After everyone left, Shuo Ling followed the road taken by the villagers and walked out of the village.
Outside the village, villagers looking for him could be seen everywhere. Shuoling was helpless and finally found a cave and hid here.
After a long time, there was no movement outside. Only then did Shuo Ling come out of the cave, but found that he had lost his direction.
Fortunately, he and Mo Li had made preparations early. They were afraid of getting lost at the frontier, so they took out the signal bomb from their bodies, opened the valve, and the sky suddenly lit up.
After a while, Shuo Ling saw bright lights flashing in the distance.
When Li Moli saw that his Marquis hadn't returned for a long time, he knew something must have happened. He wanted to look for Shuo Ling, but he didn't know Shuo Ling's whereabouts, so he could only wait and worry about it. No, look. When he heard the signal from his master, he responded immediately.
After a stick of incense, Mo Li saw a figure in the distance. After a closer look, he saw that it was their Marquis, and Mo Li finally felt relieved.
Li Li looked at the sleeping person, quietly walked towards Shuo Ling and asked in a low voice, "Master Hou, what happened?"
"We'll talk about it later." Shuo Ling said and closed his eyes again.
Shuo Ling, who had been working hard for most of the night, had inexplicable stomach cramps again at the altar. At this time, most of his energy had been consumed, and now he was in urgent need of rest.
Li Qiye nodded and fell asleep!
Early in the morning, I was woken up by the sound of Luohe!
"Brothers, cheer up, we will enter Paradise City in half a day's journey, and this mission will be over." He said to the people in the caravan.
"Brother, it's too early for you, it's not bright yet!" Everyone rubbed their eyes and complained.
Then someone teased Luo He, "Brother, do you want to go back and hug your sister-in-law earlier?"
Everyone laughed...
"Go, go, what did you say? Don't you miss your wife and children?" Luo He said clearly.
Everyone shut up one after another, yes! They have already been together for three months, and it would be a lie to say that they don’t want to!
Then he quickly got up to feed the horses and tidy up everything.
Luo He walked towards Shuo Ling Moli and said, "Brother Mo, we are about to enter the city. Although this Paradise City is a land in the Central Plains, it is not as peaceful as the mainland of the Central Plains. There is a mixture of fish and dragons in it. You must behave accordingly." Be careful everywhere!”
"Brother Xie Luo reminds us that we will be careful!" Li Li replied, and he couldn't help but respect Luo He, whom he had only known for a few days.
When they were approaching Paradise City, Luo He showed Mo Li with his finger.
Because of the disappearances, there was a long queue at the city gate. Everyone was holding a sign in their hand, and the guards were checking them one by one.
Luo He suddenly asked Mo Li, "Do you have this sign for entering the city?"
Li Qiye shook his head.
"In that case, how about you two sneak into my caravan first? Can you try it?" Luo He thought of a way and then said.
Mo Lizheng didn't know how to return, but his Marquis said, "This is the only way for now."
Luo He walked to the side dedicated to inspecting the caravan and greeted the guards at the door. It seemed that they had already become familiar with these guards guarding the city.
The guards checked each box one by one and said, "It's time to go."
Just halfway through, the chief guard at the city gate shouted, "Stop!"
Luo He stopped and hurried to the guard chief, "Master, what's the matter?"
"I think these two people are familiar with each other!" The guard chief looked at Shuo Ling and Mo Li up and down.
Luo He explained, "The two of them have just joined my caravan and have not yet met the official."
"You haven't had a face-to-face photo? Then I'm sorry. There are regulations in the city recently. Those who don't have a face-to-face ID card are not allowed to enter the city!" said the guard chief.
At this time, Luo He smiled and said, "The two of them have come all the way here. If they are turned away, what should they do? Please be accommodating, sir."
"I can't bear if something happens in the future. If you really want them to enter the city, go and explain the situation, get the city entry sign, and then let the two of them enter the city." The guard chief also felt uncomfortable.
Seeing that he was helpless, Luo He turned around and said to Mo Li, "Brother Mo, I'm sorry. Why don't you wait two days and I'll arrange these goods and then go to the government for you to handle them."
"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Luo." He said, taking out a piece of silver and stuffing it into Luo He's hand.
Luo He's face suddenly dropped, "Brother Mo, what do you mean by this? Are you looking down on me?"
"Brother Luo has misunderstood what I meant. Go to the government immediately to get the sign. It will inevitably cost you some money. Brother Luo earns hard money. We have been harassing you for many days along the way. How can we let Brother Luo spend more money on us?" "Mo Li hurriedly explained.
Luo He said with an unhappy face, "Since I call you brother, I won't care about this. If you treat me as your eldest brother, just keep your money."
Mo Li had no choice but to take it back, and several people said goodbye at the door!
When the night was dark, the city gate had already been closed. The two of them took advantage of the moonlight and jumped into the Paradise City.
Entering the city, I saw no one on the streets and every house closed its doors!
He remembered that the outside world once said that there was no distinction between day and night in Paradise City, and that people were most active at night. However, it was not yet past midnight, and there was no trace of people.
It seems that this matter will be solved as soon as possible!
The two found the inn, knocked on the door, and prepared to stay first. Let’s talk tomorrow.
But after searching several inns, no one responded, so I had to give up!
Li Qiye found a deserted courtyard and said, "Master Marquis, why don't we rest here first and find an inn to stay in early tomorrow morning."
Shuo Ling nodded and found a relatively clean place to sit down and rest.
On the side, Mo Li found branches and weeds to light a fire. The night outside the Great Wall was much cooler than in the Central Plains.
Early in the morning, Mo Li woke up from the cold and found that the fire had been extinguished. He was looking at his Marquis, who had already gotten up and was standing at the door thinking about something.
Mo Li stood up and moved forward, asking in a low voice, "Master Hou, it's dawn, and people in the city must have gotten up too. Let's go find the inn."
"Okay." Shuo Ling stopped thinking about the wizard outside the city, got up and walked out of the empty room.
Li Qiye followed closely behind.
When they arrived at the inn, they saw the innkeeper looking them up and down, and then asked, "Aren't you two gentlemen from outside the Great Wall? Why are you here?"
"Boss, we are here to find relatives. We are very tired after we have been here all the way. We want to take a rest before going to find relatives." Li Li replied,
The shopkeeper nodded at this time and apologized hurriedly, "I see, the two young masters have offended each other a lot. The city has been really not peaceful recently."
Li Qiye nodded and said it was okay, "Give us two good guest rooms."
Hearing this, the innkeeper burst into laughter.
Then he called the name of the waiter on the side, "Sihe, take the two guests to the guest room."
