MTL - Stealing the Hero’s Cool Script-Chapter 142 SAKUNLIN
"Have you seen that group of lunatics holding torches and going to Xitan again?"
"Shh! Say a few words less."
"What's the matter? I'm going to complain. There are a few days every month when the trouble lasts until midnight. My house is close to them, so I can't sleep because of the noise!"
"Just pass it with patience, and get angry and hurt your body."
"It hurts your body to endure it! I have such a temper. You say they dance when they dance, and they even beat drums and gongs. Last time my friend came back late and saw them kowtowing around the snake and holding a knife when they were done. Swap your arms, tell me, is this worshiping a ghost? It's really evil."
"Keep your voice down! The people there are out of their minds. If they really heard about it, they might secretly take revenge on you in the future. They will use some kind of witchcraft or voodoo to **** your energy, and you won't even know how to die!"
"I am a dignified woman, still afraid of revenge? Come here, the big deal—" The woman's voice stopped abruptly after seeing a group of passers-by walking hurriedly, "Who is this?"
"Hey, I'm just looking at my eyes, and I don't even look like people from our small place...wait!" Seeing some kind of token, the man exclaimed, "The Exorcist! People from the Red Pavilion! My son is from the Garment Bureau, and he told me privately that their uniforms have this pattern!"
The two were discussing in a low voice, and noticed that their leader came straight over.
"Is it the villagers around here? I want to ask you the way."
"Ask for directions? Yes, yes, of course." It was the first time she saw the legendary Red Pavilion with her own eyes. The peasant woman was very nervous. She rubbed her hands on the bib and put down the sickle in her hand, "Sir, what do you think?" , where are you going, I'll take you there directly."
This is nearly 2,000 kilometers away from the main city, and the villagers use tongue-twisting dialects for daily communication. Even if they pay attention to speaking the official lingua franca at the moment, they also have a strong accent.
"Here." The leader took out a map, "The route marked on the map is going this way, but my people have explored ahead, and it seems to be a dead end."
"This is the road." The peasant woman stretched her thick arms forward, "Isn't it a waterhole to walk forward? The road is just under the waterhole, and the villagers didn't want to let people go in so they deliberately did it like this, but You are Her Lady Queen's people, they will definitely let you go!"
"The road is under the pool?"
"That's right, but don't mess around, they've set up some weird mechanism inside, if you go in casually, people will die!" The peasant woman worried for them, "You go over with the public token, they will definitely Obedient and open the door."
The person next to her lowered her voice and leaned over, "I just went inside to check if there is anything bad. The people in their village are always mysterious and infiltrating."
"What do you mean by bad things?" The leader wanted to ask again, but Lin Luo behind her had already waved her hand to urge her. She quickly put away the map and thanked the two of them, "Thank you, then let's move on."
"It's okay, it's okay! It's our honor to be able to help!"
Infected by the simple and warm smile on the peasant woman's face, she smiled back politely, "Goodbye."
Yan Yu habitually walked at the end of the team, while Yin Beiqing, as the protagonist of this trip, followed the Red Pavilion members who led the way.
Theoretically, Yan Yu can't go with her, but because several imperial masters in the Red Pavilion happened to go out with other teams to do missions, in order to ensure the safety of the team members, she could only temporarily use her as a volunteer.
After all, Yan Yu's name was listed at the top of the recommendation list that the dean sent to the Red Pavilion. If she hadn't had that willingness, she would have become a member of the Red Pavilion long ago.
There was actually another person in the same group—Miao Tan, but she didn't follow in the team openly, but followed behind with her breath hidden.
Except for the three of them, the rest of the team are the referees and the Hongge people who lead the way. They have a token that can find Qi in their hands, which can be used to determine its exact location.
Pushing aside the leaves, you can see the pool that the peasant woman mentioned. Lin Luo took out the saber at his waist, trying to test the depth.
Who knew that the tip had just touched the water surface, and it was bounced back with a bang as if it had hit some hard object. The force made her take a step back, and it was with great difficulty that she held the hilt of the sword without letting it go. Dropped on the floor.
Not only that, the entire pool began to shake, like a bowl of hot water that was not held steady, and the calm water surface began to bubble up.
"Danger!" Someone in the team yelled, and as soon as the words fell, countless flying arrows surrounded them from all sides.
Yan Yu had presciently cast a protective shield for herself when Lin Luo was trying to die. This is an improved imperial technique designed and improved by herself. It can not only block spiritual damage, but also prevent pure physical damage.
Those present were either the elites of the Spirit Elimination Team or the teachers who had taught for several years. No one took this danger seriously. Even so, Yin Beiqing, who was standing at the forefront of the team, wanted to run back immediately, but After seeing Yan Yu's expression of "I'm just here to watch the fun quietly" with both hands on his sleeves, he silently let go of his raised heart.
I almost forgot that the sick child who was coughing up blood after walking two steps on the mountain road had already transformed into a goddess who could protect herself in turn.
What is she worried about.
The arrows flew for a while, and every time when people felt that it was almost safe, another batch flew in unpreparedly. In just a few minutes, the broken wooden arrows on the ground had piled up into hills, and it was hard to wait for the arrows. After the flight, before he could catch his breath, a big hole popped out of nowhere in the ground, trying to swallow people into a trap full of sharp weapons.
Yan Yu stood on the spot, listening to the sound of arrows poking on the protective shield, and admiring the heroic posture of a dozen masters flying around like acrobats, their leisurely attitude was almost a hand in the palm of their hands. The melon seeds are served.
Finally, when the triggered organs were all over, Lin Luo frowned and picked up the arrow on the ground for a closer look.
She originally wanted to roughly confirm its source through the craftsmanship and shape of the arrow, but she didn't expect to see the special logo engraved on the arrow at a glance.
To be able to follow the queen, she must be well-informed, and immediately recognized that it was the symbol of the Youqi family. She reluctantly picked up a few more arrows to check until she confirmed that these arrows indeed came from the same source.
The Youqi family, which is difficult to recruit even the royal family, would actually deploy agencies for this small village built in a remote area?
Lin Luo's face was sullen, and she always felt that there was something wrong with this matter. It was like a chess game that someone had arranged in advance, which made her feel uncomfortable being calculated.
Yu Fusang, who was also at the front of the line, reminded at this time, "There are footsteps approaching, there is probably a small group of people, about seven or eight."
She was right, and soon a line of uniformly dressed women approached behind them, all holding long, sharp weapons.
When they were still a few meters away, the woman with the curly hair who led the team whispered a dialect, with a confused expression on her face.
Yan Yu heard it more clearly when she was closer, and after a systematic conversion, the sentence was translated into a language she could understand—"Why are the people from the royal family here?"
Yan Yu carefully looked at their clothes. The color of the clothes was not bright, but the texture of the fabric was not bad. Even if they were worn a bit old, they would look dirty. Most of their hair was coiled up or tied into strong and dense braids. If you think it's troublesome, you can just shave it to size.
These people are tall and dark-skinned, but their eyes are very light-colored. Take the leader woman as an example. At the root of the finger, it seems that the finger circles around the root of the finger, some people have more and some people have less.
Yan Yu remembered that she had read in a book before that in ancient times, women in Polai liked to use this method to mark the number of partners they had **** with. In private, they would even use this as capital to show off to their friends, but as they The birth of the blood contract was also due to their emphasis on the uniqueness of their partner, and this custom disappeared naturally.
"Are you the ones who triggered the mechanism just now?" The gray-eyed woman stepped forward and spoke in a tone that could not be called respectful.
She looked straight into Lin Luo's eyes, and the expression of asking questions was in stark contrast to the hospitality of the two peasant women just now.
Yan Yu, who was watching from the side, suddenly thought of another weird point.
According to normal logic, it is almost impossible for residents outside the main city, especially those in remote areas, to see the royal family, and they probably only know that their uniforms look expensive.
This is also the reason why the two peasant women were able to recognize the person in the Red Pavilion just now, but they couldn't recognize Lin Luo, who had a higher status behind him.
But the woman who led the team took a look from a distance and knew that there were people from the royal family here, and she even chose to talk to Lin Luo, who is a colonel, among so many people.
Why is that?
