Chapter 393 Zhai Lao Ge Dong
After handing Su Ziyi to the old man, the woman planned to retreat with them.
Seeing this, Su Ziyi became anxious and quickly stopped in front of the person, saying with a livid face: "Where are my husband and the others? Didn't you agree to take me to meet my husband and the others?" His eyes were gloomy and his hands were touching. When we got to the storage bag, we were obviously ready to take action.
The woman's eyes were indifferent, and she looked back at the old man whose face was as shriveled as a dried orange peel, and said, "Old Getong Village?" He raised his eyelids listlessly, and then the old man who was called the Old Man of Getong
Village He moved his lips that could no longer tell the color: "Follow me." After saying that, he turned around and flew down, and the people who had been following him followed suit, as if they were not worried at all. Su Ziyi ran away. However, Su Ziyi did not run away. He glanced at the woman who still had no expression, and finally followed her with gritted teeth.
Walking into the village, Su Ziyi realized that it was more complicated than he thought.
Although I don't know what methods these people used, as soon as Su Ziyi's feet touched the ground, a spiritual energy poured into his body from under the soles of his feet, which was extremely powerful. However, Su Ziyi sensed some unpleasant presence in this aura, and immediately blocked the other party from his body, refusing to allow him to enter.
But this rejection soon lost its effect.
The weird spiritual energy just seeped in from the ground at first, but as it went forward, the spiritual energy around him also changed in the same way, and the degree of change was even more fierce than that underground, and it poured towards Su Ziyi pervasively. In the end, even if Su Ziyi used all his strength, he still managed to stick to Su Ziyi's skin smoothly and get in.
As soon as the thing penetrated into his body, Su Ziyi shivered instantly, and he felt that something bad had happened.
At this time, the group of people walking in front also turned to look at him. Ge Tong squinted his small eyes and stared at Su Ziyi for a few times before saying: "Let's go." After that, he turned around and took him with him. Everyone walked in the other direction. It was also at this time that Su Ziyi discovered that the other party had been taking him around the outside of the village and had not gone deep into the village.
Obviously there is no layout plan in this village. As long as you want to go, you can take a shortcut at any time, but the other party keeps walking on the edge of the forest with him and does not go deep into the forest. Subconsciously, Su Ziyi looked towards the forest next to him, and saw a small white flower spreading from his feet to the forest. Because the flower was very small and hidden among the green leaves, it was not very bright. Eye-catching.
And now -
when he thought that Qin Sikai had told him that there were many spiritual plants in the world that seemed inconspicuous but had strange effects, his heart went cold. He raised his head angrily and shouted: "What on earth did you do?" He called the person back, but the other person's face was still the same, with a look of disapproval: "It's just a precaution." It's just a last resort."
When he said this, his tone sounded like he was saying that the weather was very good today, without any trace of nervousness or guilt.
And after saying this, the other party acted like nothing was wrong, turned around and continued walking forward, getting into the woods, not caring what Su Ziyi thought at all.
Su Ziyi's chest was rising and falling, and he was about to explode with anger, but when he saw that the other party was almost gone, he had no choice but to hold back the anger in his heart and follow him.
On the other side, Su Yulang and Bian Qing sat back to back with their eyes closed, sitting on the floor. At this moment, they were being locked up in a dark and damp cave. Although no one was using anything to help them, the feeling of weakness coming from the muscles of their limbs, as well as the two initial foundation building members guarding the entrance of the cave, all explained one fact
—They can't escape.
As a result, the two had no choice but to close their eyes and recuperate.
At this time, a familiar sound of footsteps came from outside the cave. Su Yulang's eyebrows immediately furrowed with a look of disgust on his face. At the same time, he moved his body and leaned in, without giving any sight to those who came in from outside the cave. that person. As soon as the man came in, he saw Su Yulang's expression of not wanting to see him at all. Tears immediately filled his eyes, and he looked very aggrieved.
Fortunately, he immediately realized that he had done something wrong this time, and he was not qualified to feel wronged in front of the other party. So, he immediately wiped away his tears and leaned over with a flattering look on his face. He also knew that Su Yulang didn't want to listen to him, so he just smiled reluctantly and put the things he brought on the stone table in front of the two of them. superior.
It was a plate of fried green vegetables, and a few black dumplings that looked like steamed buns. There was no trace of meat, which made people look completely unappetizing.
Bian Qing and Su Yulang didn't even open their eyes to watch it from beginning to end.
He knelt and sat aside. After a while, Su Yulang didn't even look at him. He knew that this would happen again today. He was not discouraged, put away the other things, and left the cave quietly. When his footsteps could no longer be heard, Su Yulang, who had been pretending to be dead, opened his eyes and looked at the food on the table with disgust.
Just at this moment, a warm hand touched the back of Su Yulang's hand.
It's Bian Qing.
Feeling the comfort from Eminem, Su Yulang didn't dare to look at Bian Qing at this moment, because if it weren't for him, they wouldn't have been fooled by each other and got caught here. When he thought that his father who was still in Adari City must be anxious and angry at this moment, he hated his softness and kindness, and regretted extremely why he had reached out to that little Shuang'er in the first place.
All this is his fault.
Su Yulang's self-pity was completely seen by Bian Qing, but the child was now in the corner. No matter how much he said, it would be useless. It was better to let Su Yulang calm down first, and then enlighten him. As for the current situation, Bian Qing is not as pessimistic as Su Yulang. From the moment things were happy to now, these people have not been cruel to them, but have used kidnapping to imprison them here. Apparently they have other considerations. of.
And what exactly does the other party want to use them for?
Bian Qing's eyes couldn't help but flash when he thought of the strange smell they asked about along the way.
Now, he just hopes that Su Ziyi can stay safely in Adali City and contact Cui Yu and others before taking action. Don't act alone because of worries about them and put himself in danger.
But Bian Qing knew that this possibility was very low.
Therefore, when he saw Su Ziyi and several Miao Dian people walking into the cave, Bian Qing was not surprised at all. He and Su Yulang supported each other and went forward. The family of three gathered together and asked each other, for fear that the other party would suffer. What inhuman treatment. But fortunately, their situation seems to be okay.
However, after the previous encounters, Su Ziyi became more wary of the methods of these Miao Dian people.
The three of them didn't talk for too long. Elder Ge Dong, who had been standing at the entrance of the cave, interrupted them: "Now, Master Sudan should be relieved." His voice was very nasal when he spoke, so it sounded a bit vague. In addition, the Miao Dian people originally had a strange accent when speaking Tonghua, so Su Ziyi frowned when he heard him speak.
He protected Bian Qing and Su Yulang behind him, turned around and looked at Elder Ge Dong with an indifferent expression: "I want to be with my family." This was not a request that was too difficult, anyway, they were there from the beginning to the end
. He never relaxed his vigilance towards Su Ziyi, and even used tricks on him repeatedly, so he must not be able to do anything wrong. It would be a good deal if he allowed these two twins to stay with him, making him more willing to do things for them.
With this calculation in his mind, Mr. Ge Dong Village nodded: "Okay."
After saying that, he made an invitation gesture to Su Ziyi: "Let's go." Although Bian Qing and Su Yulang were still frightened in their hearts, they immediately calmed down after Su Ziyi took them by the hand and walked forward. No matter what, as long as the family stays together, things will always work out.
On the way here, Mr. Ge Dongzhai had already negotiated terms with Su Ziyi.
It is impossible to put people back, so the two of them did not discuss this issue from the beginning. They only expressed what Su Ziyi wanted to do for the people here when he stayed here. And how could Su Ziyi be manipulated by others? Even if he is indeed at a disadvantage now, he clearly told Ge Tong that even if he is now under the control of others, it is completely impossible to make him obey orders.
After a battle, Ge Dongzhai Lao took a step back and allowed Su Ziyi a certain amount of freedom, but these freedoms required him to use pills in exchange.
As for what kind of elixir it is, they will arrange it here.
After winning a small victory from the opponent, Su Ziyi probably understood that there were probably no higher-level alchemists in this village, so the opponent kept tolerating to him.
And this is obviously a good thing for him.
Now that both parties have reached preliminary opinions, the next matter will be easier to deal with. Under the arrangement of Ge Dong village elder, the three members of their family walked out of the dark and damp cave, and under the guidance of the other party, they walked deep into the forest together. The deeper you go into the forest, the more prosperous the surrounding trees are. There are some plants that Su Ziyi doesn't recognize. These plants should be spiritual plants. There is a layer of light spiritual energy flowing on them. I don't know if they can be used to make elixirs. .
In addition, they saw more tree houses along the way. The tree houses here were obviously larger and denser than those outside, but surprisingly there were no people there, and they didn't know where the villagers here were. Went there, and it was obvious that every tree house had traces of human activity.
After walking smoothly for nearly a cup of tea, the group stopped.
Chapter 394 The whole story
This is a bigger treehouse than the previous one.
The only difference is that the tree houses they just saw along the road were all built on trees, but the one in front of them was not. Instead, trees grew out of the house.
No, that's not accurate.
To be precise, this is a wooden house with a dead wood trunk in the middle as the beam, and thick wooden sticks underneath to raise the floor nearly three feet. Although the beam in the middle is just a dead tree, or even only half of it, it is as thick as the waist of several adults, not much different from the big banyan tree in front of Luoshan Village.
Moreover, it is not completely dead. At the edge of its uppermost layer, which has become black and decayed, a small branch is being pulled out, and a few leaves are shiny green.
But what caught Su Ziyi's attention the most was that although the wooden house only had one floor, its roof was densely planted with various spiritual plants and herbs. There are some with long leaves, some with short leaves, some with flowers of various colors and some with inconspicuous moss. Such a large number of spiritual plants are gathered on a small roof, emitting radiant colors under the sunlight.
Su Ziyi understood that it was the visual effect produced by the gathering of spiritual energy.
Bian Qing and Su Yulang were also shocked by this scene. They completely imagined how strong the roof was to be able to bear so much weight. But before they could figure out how to come, the elder of the Gedong village over there spoke: "From now on, your family of three will live here." As soon as he finished speaking, the three people of the Su family His face darkened.
To be honest, when they looked all the way over, they really didn't find a better house than the one in front of them.
However, this house is clearly located in the middle of the forest village. There are villagers' wooden houses in the surrounding trees, and the house in the middle is monitored from all angles. When they thought that they would have to live under the surveillance of so many people for a period of time, the three of them couldn't help but feel disgusted. No wonder their expressions changed drastically.
It's a pity that they have no way to resist the decision made by the elder Ge Dong village.
Taking a deep breath, Su Ziyi was the first to lift his legs and walked towards the house. Bian Qing and Su Yulang saw that Su Ziyi moved, so they naturally followed him. After the three of them entered the house, the village elder Ge Dong led a group of people away, leaving only a middle-aged man of about forty or fifty.
As soon as they entered the house, the three of them looked up and realized why the roof could support so many spiritual plants.
It turns out there is something else under the roof.
Only two or three tree trunks as thick as a human thigh were seen growing upward to support the roof. Coupled with other wooden rafters deeply embedded in the dead wood, it was no wonder that the roof was so strong. In addition, the situation inside the wooden house was better than Su Ziyi and the others thought, because the dead wood in the middle was not completely closed, and all the light leaked through the gaps, making the whole house look quite bright.
Just as the three people of the Su family were looking at everything in the house, the middle-aged man left behind by Ge Dong village elder came in with a young man who had only reached the fifth level of Qi refining.
He didn't seem to like them very much, so when he talked to Su Ziyi and the others, the middle-aged man's expression and tone were cold: "This is Ajiao. If you want anything from now on, just tell him directly and he will get it for you." ." After that, he turned around and left. The young man named Ajiu had no expression on his face. He just looked at them like this, obviously not respecting them very much.
The three members of the Su family didn't care either. They were currently immersed in the faint anger caused by what the middle-aged man said before he left.
According to that person, they will be imprisoned here from now on?
Su Ziyi sneered, feeling that these people were really ridiculous, and at the same time he was determined to develop an antidote as soon as possible. However, before carrying out these tasks, he still had many things to say to Bian Qing and Su Yulang, so he immediately invited Ajiu out rudely and set up the formation in front of others. No one is allowed to easily enter this territory that temporarily belongs to them.
And Ajiu didn't care about his attitude. After being expelled, he jumped to the tree house opposite a few times, sat on the floor outside the house with one leg bent, and was rubbing something with a black thing in his hands. .
After setting up the magic circle, Su Ziyi felt a little safer and returned to the house.
There are a total of four rooms in the house, but each room is not big, barely enough for a bed. It looks extremely cramped when you walk in. Only the hall looks okay. People here didn't seem to use stools, so Su Ziyi had to take out three cushions from the storage bag for them to sit cross-legged.
"How did you get caught by them?" This question has always been the one that Su Ziyi cared about the most, so as soon as he sat down, he immediately asked.
When he asked, the expressions of the two people sitting next to him changed.
Su Yulang had a look of sadness and annoyance on his face. He punched his thigh hard and lowered his head, not daring to look at Su Ziyi: "It's my fault. I was too careless and trusted others easily." After saying this, He pursed his lips tightly and his chest heaved violently. It was obvious that he didn't intend to speak until his emotions stabilized.
Seeing this, Bian Qing took over the conversation: "Do you still remember the little Shuang'er that A Lang saved that day? It was him." Su Ziyi frowned: "Sure enough, it was him." His words attracted the attention of
Bian Qing and Su Yulang. He was surprised. Although he didn't ask any questions, his eyes were full of questions. Su Ziyi didn't hide anything from them, and directly told them what he saw and heard in those two days, as well as everything he did after that.
After listening, the two of them looked complicated.
They had no idea that Su Ziyi would do this for the two of them. At that moment, their hearts were so painful and warm, and there was such a heart-wrenching feeling that neither of them could say a word. They could only stretch out their hands and hold Su Ziyi's tightly.
By the time Su Yulang opened his mouth to tell what happened to them, it was already time for a cup of tea.
After seeing Su Ziyi, Su Yulang calmed down, and he told Su Ziyi everything that happened that day in a clear and logical manner.
That day, the two of them went outside the city as usual, but just before leaving Adali City, they met the little Shuang'er who had disappeared for a few days. As soon as the other party saw them, he immediately laughed, but because he took into account Su Yulang's previous warning, he did not dare to come forward. Seeing his timid look, Su Yulang couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, and called the person over to say more. a few words.
Being able to talk to Su Yulang seems to be a very happy thing for that little Shuang'er.
While he was chirping and telling Su Yulang about his recent work as a helper, he carefully took out an oil paper bag from his arms and handed it to Su Yulang. Su Yulang knew it was a snack at the first glance, and wanted to refuse it at that time, but when his eyes saw the other party's lips that were so nervous that they were about to bleed, he accepted it anyway.
As soon as he answered, Xiao Shuang'er immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thanked Su Yulang again with a relaxed smile, and left in a skip.
As soon as the people left, Su Yulang opened the oil paper bag and found that it contained two ordinary rice cakes, the kind that older children were selling in the streets and alleys recently. When I bought it, the oil paper bag was still a little warm. I wanted to give it to him for some time when he got it.
Su Yulang couldn't help but feel better when he thought of this child being so affectionate. He ate a piece of rice cake without any hesitation and gave the other piece to Bian Qing. After finishing eating, the two of them left Adali City and headed towards the hilltop where they had been recently.
However, not long after they arrived at their destination, they noticed a line of sight glued to them. Immediately, they were on guard, but before they could find each other, the other party took action first. I saw a man in black robe suddenly burst out of the bushes nearby and pointed directly at Su Yulang.
Su Yulang quickly waved his whip to fight.
This man was already at the eleventh level of Qi Refining, and he suppressed Su Yulang as soon as he appeared. But fortunately, Bian Qing was by his side, and he helped to fight off the opponent as soon as he took action. But he didn't expect that the other party's skills were extremely agile. Even Bian Qing, who was already in the early stage of foundation building, couldn't catch the person at once. After using several moves with the other party, he seriously injured the other party.
And just when Bian Qing was about to pursue the victory, his spiritual power suddenly stagnated, his movements instantly became sluggish, his head became heavy, and his eyes were filled with double images.
At that moment, Bian Qing understood that they were poisoned.
Unfortunately, they only had time to understand this fact. Before they could take out the detoxification pill from the storage bag, their bodies fell to the ground uncontrollably. Bian Qing is a foundation-building practitioner, but he is doing better. He can still maintain a trace of clarity in his mind. He subconsciously holds the whip tightly in his hand, and looks at several black-robed men who suddenly appear around him. The silk was completely scattered.
The situation on Su Yulang's side was even worse.
His cultivation level was low and he became unwell earlier than Bian Qing. As soon as he showed symptoms of poisoning, before he had time to think about what happened, his vision went dark and he lost consciousness, and he lay down on the ground. . By the time he and Bian Qing regained consciousness, they had already appeared in the cave from outside Adali City.
When the familiar little Shuang'er was ordered to bring them food, no matter how slow they were, they understood what all this was about.
At that time, Su Yulang almost killed the opponent, if it were not for the Miao Dian people next to him who stopped him, and also because his physical and spiritual power had not recovered. But even so, the murderous intention was still buried deep in Su Yulang's heart.
