The young man who came in was called Wu Chun, the grandson of Wu Zhu. However, after Wu Zhu pa.s.sed away, his family"s position was not as great as before.
However, he had grown up with Wu Shuang"er. The two weren"t considered childhood friends, but they had grown up together, and they had always been on good terms with each other. Whenever Wu Shuang"er was in the Wu Village, Wu Chun would be the first to step up, and today was no exception.
s.h.i.+va looked at him, "Wu Chun, what did you say? "When did it become your turn to speak in this Magus Altar?"
Every generation of Spirit Matriarchs had an absolute position in the Wu Village, even higher than Wu Zhu. Wu Zhu may have the position of the head of the village, but according to the Wu Village"s heritage, Spirit Matriarchs were truly supreme.
After all, Wu Chun was the grandson of the old Wu Zhu. Furthermore, he was young and full of vigor, so he did not appear to be afraid. He puffed out his chest and said, "s.h.i.+va, none of the women that we sent to the Jade Serpent Sect these few years have returned. I … I don"t want Shuang"er to go!Hearing these words, Lin Zichen was stunned. It seemed that not only did Wu Village send Shuang"er and a girl to the Jade Serpent Sect, but also … Not a single one returned. This didn"t make sense. Even if they were married, they would still have to return to their parents" home. Could it be …
Upon hearing these words, the spirit grandma was enraged and stomped her cane on the ground. "Hmph, you"re rebelling. Men, bring Wu Chun out of here!"
After s.h.i.+va finished speaking, a few men stepped forward and captured Wu Chun. These men were all in their twenties or thirties, and Wu Chun was only sixteen or seventeen. Their strength couldn"t be compared, so they didn"t even have the chance to resist.However, even though he was being held by the arm and pressing his head down, he still loudly yelled, "No! You can"t take Shuang"er away! G.o.ddess, I won"t let you do this. You will harm Shuang"er!"
Seeing this scene, Shuang"er"s tears fell as she shook her head with all her might. "Wu Chun, don"t speak anymore. Leave quickly. Don"t charge into Spirit Apostle just because of me."
"No, Shuang"er, you can"t go. That Jade Serpent Sect eats people but doesn"t spit their bones out. I heard that all the girls that went to that place were eaten by them. You can"t go!"
s.h.i.+va"s eyes widened at once, and he even said with a nervous expression, "What are you still standing around for? Take Wu Chun out of here and enforce the village rules!""Yes, Spirit Apostle!"
Wu Chun struggled and screamed, but he was still dragged out, and his voice grew smaller and smaller. Wu Shuang"er fell to her knees and sobbed on the ground. Since she was young, Wu Chun was her best friend, and Wu Shuang"er"s heart was filled with guilt and self-blame when she saw that he was going to be punished.
"Granny Ling, I beg of you, don"t punish Wu Chun anymore. This has nothing to do with him. It"s my fault …" Wu Shuang"er cried as she spoke.
"Hmph, of course it"s your fault. You were raised by me since young, and now you actually disobey my orders. I regret raising you to such a big extent!"Lin Zi Chen laughed: "Hehe, if raising a person is better than not raising them, how could there be such a purpose in this world to raising them?"
"Hmm?" Grandma Ling looked at Lin Zichen, she had noticed these two strangers before, but she didn"t have the time to question them, "Who are you people? Shuang"er, did you bring it? "
Wu Shuang"er looked at Lin Zichen with a complicated expression. In the end, she lowered her head and did not speak.
"Shuang"er, you called these two outsiders over …" Not planning on dealing with me? " s.h.i.+va stared at Wu Shuang"er"s face as he forcefully asked.
Wu Shuang"er didn"t even dare to look at Spirit Apostle, and the truth was, even she wasn"t clear in her heart. In fact, she didn"t even know what had happened in the past two days, that she had been inexplicably caught and run away, and that she was dying.
Grandma Ling snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, that"s good, Wu Shuang"er. You plan on inviting outsiders to deal with me?" "Good, good, very good. This is the Shuang"er I raised. However, I"ll let you know the consequences of fighting against the Witch Village"s Spirit Apostle!"
Heart Losing Gu!
The old woman took out something from a bag on her waist and threw it towards Lin Zi Chen and Huo Qing. Although her movements were very fast, Lin Zi Chen still noticed that she was throwing out a rigid insect!Gu? Hmph, I have long heard of the Gu techniques cultivated by these foreign races. Today, I, Lin Zichen, have witnessed it. Lin Zichen did not plan to resist, after all, his purpose in coming was not to create trouble for the Wu Village, but to save Wu Shuang"er.
From the looks of it, Wu Shuang"er should have also been afflicted by some Gu technique from s.h.i.+va. It was obviously impossible for her to dispel the Gu for Shuang"er, so Lin Zichen had no choice but to stay in the Witch Village and slowly find a way to dispel the Gu.
Although Lin Zi Chen thought this way, Huo Qing, who was standing beside him, did not plan to surrender. Seeing the Spirit Apostle"s sudden action, he leaned to the side, wanting to dodge the Gu technique"s attack, but right at this moment, Lin Zi Chen lightly pointed at a spot behind him. He felt weak all over and turned to look at Lin Zi Chen, his eyes filled with confusion …
Lin Zi Chen smiled and did not say anything. In the next second, both of them were hit by the Losing Heart Gu. They watched Huo Qing"s eyes become misty for a while, and Lin Zi Chen also started to imitate it.
Seeing the two of them in such a state, Granny Ling sneered, "Humph, bring them into the cage. Once Shuang"er goes to the Jade Serpent Sect, I"ll deal with them!""Yes, Spirit Apostle!"
"No, no, they are just my friends. Can I promise you that? "Stop hurting them …" Wu Shuang"er cried even harder. After all, compared to Wu Chun, Lin Zichen and Huo Qing were even more innocent. They only wanted to help him, but she had underestimated the power of the Spirit Apostle …
After the two of them were escorted out of the spirit altar, Huo Qing struggled to open her mouth and said, "Master, you … "What are you doing …"
Lin Zi Chen said in a low voice, "Don"t say anything, I"m here."
Huo Qing immediately felt relieved upon hearing Lin Zi Chen"s words. "Master, what kind of strength do you have? I guess that the Gu wouldn"t be able to do anything to you. But for the sake of this girl, Master seems to have put me in his shoes again …"
Along the way, Huo Qing was in a daze, as if he had seen some vague images, but he couldn"t recall anything. This was the effect of the Heartless Parasite, as the people who were afflicted with it would lose their strength and consciousness for a period of time.
However, Lin Zi Chen clearly remembered this route and could only watch as the man brought him and Huo Qing into a huge bamboo cage.It was only at night that Huo Qing gradually woke up from his daze. When he saw the st.u.r.dy bamboo joints around him, he remembered what had happened previously.
"Master, we … "He"s locked up?"
Lin Zi Chen smiled and nodded: "These bamboo had all been soaked and aren"t worse than steel. This little Witch Village actually designed this kind of prison. Hehe, this is quite interesting."
Huo Qing rubbed his temples and said, "Master, what the h.e.l.l did that old woman do to us? I"m still dizzy."
"It"s a Gu!"
"Gu?" Huo Qing also knew some legends and stories about the Gu, but he didn"t expect to experience it for himself."It seems that Wu Village is much more troublesome than we thought. Not only is this Spirit Apostle of Wu Village of the highest status in Wu Village, she can also use a Gu technique. In addition to that Jade Serpent Sect, there must be a story behind this!"
"Master, what should we do now? Stopped just like that? " Huo Qing said as he rubbed his head."It"s much quieter now. I"ll go out later to check out the situation. You can just rest here."
"Ah?" Should I rest? This won"t do, Master. That Spirit Apostle"s methods are not simple. I have to follow you! " Huo Qing said.
Lin Zi Chen glanced at him and asked, "How is your practice of the Tornado Technique going?" If you are not satisfied with my examination three days later, I will expel you from my sect! "
"This... Master, I am afraid you are in danger. ""Haha, this Spirit Apostle"s Gu is not simple. However, what can you do to me?" After saying that, Lin Zichen stood up, but after touching the bamboo in the cage, he saw that the bamboo slowly became bent, and finally left enough s.p.a.ce for a person to pa.s.s through.
Lin Zichen stepped out, turned around and restored the bamboo cage. He said, "You stay here and cultivate properly, I"ll go find Shuang"er."
With that, he walked into the depths of the Witch Village. Due to the cage"s complicated intersecting bamboo, it was difficult to see the inside of the cage from the outside at night. Lin Zichen"s departure would not attract anyone"s attention.He followed the route from his memory and found the spiritual altar. Lin Zichen looked at the wooden building on the third floor. The second floor was already empty, and the hall on the first floor and the room on the third floor were still lit up.
"This time, Shuang"er"s return is like a lamb entering a tiger"s den. It was extremely difficult for Spirit Nanny to capture her, so naturally she will be confined close to him. But unfortunately …" I, Lin Zi Chen am still here! "
There were two guards standing in front of the Spiritual Altar. These guards were here to protect the Spiritual Altar by night and by day. Lin Zichen rushed over like a gust of wind. Before the two guards could react, their figures had already pa.s.sed by them."Hey, did you see that? "Just now, was it..."
"Un, I think there is something here, but …" Was it the wind? "Or a wild cat or something …""Right, right. It"s probably a wild cat. I thought I was hallucinating."
The two guards exchanged a few words before continuing to stand guard.The moment Lin Zi Chen got close to the building, he could hear the conversation inside. Because the building was made of wood, he could see inside through the sculptures on the doors and windows.
At this moment, there were still a few people on the first floor. On the two main seats were Spirit Apostle and a man in his sixties. The man"s hair was white and he had a short beard.
Ling Zhi said, "Snake King, don"t worry. Wu Shuang"er is at the top floor of my spiritual altar. This time, I won"t let her escape."
The man called Snake King snorted and said, "Humph, that"s good. I do not wish for another rebellion this time. My Supreme Dragon Physique is only missing one last girl with Ji Yin const.i.tution. Tomorrow night"s full moon is the chance. I must send Wu Shuang"er up the mountain!""Yes, yes, yes. Don"t worry, Snake King. There won"t be any mistakes this time. In the future, if the Snake King successfully refines the Absolute Dragon Body and slays the Dark Yin Dragon, it will also be our Wu Village"s fortune."
The spirit grandma nodded and bowed as she spoke with a flattering look. It was very different from the day, her dignity had long been overshadowed by the Snake King.
Lin Zi Chen nodded his head when he heard this. "So Shuang"er went up to the mountain to make the materials for the Snake King"s training. The reason that Spirit Grandma raised Shuang"er and used a Gu to bathe her in her body is probably to make her become a Yin const.i.tution. d.a.m.n it, the most dangerous thing in this world is the human heart!"
