Mysteries

Coming out of the underground palace, it was night.Looking up, you can see the half-circle of the bright moon, which has just risen from the east, illuminating the dark blue night, making the mountains gloomy.Nearby, weeds are rustling, and in the distance, shadows of trees are whirling, and the mountain wind shuttles from south to north, with woody fragrance and coolness.

Not far away, the man in black let his horse graze.

The dwarf dragged a boy over.The boy screamed in shock and was knocked unconscious by his backhand, leaving a shrill cry echoing in the valley.

The rabbit died and the fox was sad.The other teenagers were trembling with fright, and at first they could hold back, covering their mouths and whimpering, but then the atmosphere of fear and sorrow spread, and the cries were like a cloud, forming one piece.

Neia and Oak were caught in the middle, neither crying nor not crying, very embarrassing.

The dwarf throws the boy to the man in black.The man in black threw him onto the horse's back, lying face down and back up, took out the rope and tied him tightly from hands to feet.

The midget came back to pull the next one.The man screamed before he stretched out his hand, the voice was so sharp that it pierced into the sky.

The cry attracted other men in black to rush forward.The teenagers broke up and fled in all directions.The man in black and the dwarf shot like lightning, carrying each person onto the horse one by one like chickens, and tied them up.

Oak protected Neia, and retreated backwards.

In fact, from the very beginning of their escape, their rationality knew that normal situations could not escape-it is difficult to have abnormal situations in the barren mountains and mountains here, but the young minds always have some bloody impulses, and they are caught in a group of running people. Among people, he moved with his feet.Today, there are fewer and fewer people standing behind, and they face an awkward choice.Whether to be tied up after being beaten up, or to give up resistance and be tied up voluntarily.

"I'll stop them, you run into the woods." Oak clenched the hilt of his sword.Out of self-confidence and contempt for them, the dwarf did not take away his sword.At this time, the sword was the only weapon they could rely on.

The man in black was about to rush forward, but was stopped by the dwarf.With a playful look on his face, the dwarf slowly moved his wrist.

"Run!" Oak pushed Neia away and rushed over!

The sword shone coldly in the dark of night, pressing straight for the dwarf's face.He knew that he didn't have many chances, so he used his strongest move, the air cut!The silver-white sword light drew a circular arc and struck down from the dwarf's forehead.

Seeing the sword light passing through the dwarf's body, Oak still couldn't believe it.The silver light gradually dissipated, and the figure of the dwarf also disappeared.He thought of something, turned around suddenly, was hit in the chest by a kick, fell to the ground, spewed out a mouthful of black blood, and passed out.Before he fell into a coma, he saw Neia standing not far away looking at him worriedly, and the dwarf was walking towards him.

Neia clenched her fists and tried to remain calm: "As long as you let us go, I promise I won't reveal anything about you."

The dwarf sneered, "What's there to reveal?"

Ning Ya was startled, and opened her mouth to say the God of Darkness, but stopped in time.It is obviously an act of courting death to show that you know a lot when the enemy is outnumbered and the enemy is strong and we are weak.He said: "I'm not from Gu Lan, and I don't want to get involved in Gu Lan's civil war. We just want to go home."

"where is your home?"

"Senrisgar." Neia chose to lie without hesitation.

The dwarf said: "Oh, the hometown of knights."

Neia said, "Or, if you have any conditions, you can put them forward."

The dwarf sneered, and grabbed his shoulders.Neia was more than a head taller than him, and when he grabbed his shoulder, he raised his hand.

Neia looked at his suddenly approaching face, feeling disgusted in her heart.As a prince, there are very few people who have been able to touch him since he was a child. They are either relatives or close officials. He has never been so close to someone as strange and rude as a dwarf.

Shame and anger tangled together in his chest, making him almost out of breath, his heart was beating a little fast, his left chest was burning hot, as if something was about to explode, and the palm of his left hand by his side suddenly became cold, A small metal ring appeared in the palm of the hand.

Is that the lip ring?

To Neia, its elusiveness was like a dagger hidden in the dark, and it would stab herself at any moment.After all, it was obtained from the palace of the Dark God.

As if sensing his uneasiness, the lip ring suddenly flew up.Said it was flying, but in fact it was still in Neia's palm, but he raised his arm involuntarily, and hit the dwarf in the face—hit.

Neia was taken aback.He was very aware of how much he weighed, and he never thought that he could hit a seventh-rank knight.

The punch did far more damage to the dwarf than he had imagined.With a scream, the dwarf fell away and fell to the ground.Hearing the sound, the men in black gathered together in surprise, forming a siege.

The slightest excitement in Neia's heart just now subsided spontaneously after seeing this battle, and then she felt bad.Waves of coldness spread from the heart, and the mantra wrapped around the body suddenly seemed like the traces of a whip, and it hurt hotly when it fell.

His body was hot and cold one after another, but they didn't cancel each other out, torturing him everywhere.

Neia bit her lower lip, trying hard to get over it, but the harder she tried, the more dizzy she became.The people in black are like long strips of black cloth, walking from left to right...

When I woke up again, it was already daytime.

Neia found herself tied to a horse, just as she had seen the dwarf do to the other boys.It's just that there are no groups of horses on the left and right of him, there is only a black pony, and the dwarf is sitting on the horse, slowly moving forward.

Neia tried her best to turn her head, trying to see if Oak was following her, but found that the people in front turned their heads.

"You're awake. Do you want some water?" The dwarf rode up to him, took out the water bag, and held it to his lips.

Neia looked at him suspiciously.

It wasn't that he was suspicious by nature, but because of his relationship with the dwarf before he fell into a coma, the other party really had no reason to treat him so well.

"Don't want to drink?" the dwarf said, "There is still a long way to go."

Neia asked, "Where's my companion?"

The dwarf said, "Go the other way." After a pause, he was a little impatient, and then said comfortingly, "As long as you behave well, I will let you see him again."

Neia was silent for a while and said, "How long have I been unconscious?"

"Two days."

It has been two days?

So it has been a long time since I and Oak have parted?

Neia didn't feel any pain this time, but had a headache.

The dwarf saw through his thoughts and said calmly: "Dream Continent is so big, you can't catch up with him. The only way is to cooperate with us."

Neia asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"

The dwarf said, "We'll know when the time comes. It's almost noon, let's rest in front." It wasn't asking for Neia's opinion, but a routine notification after making a decision.

During the rest, Neia was not untied, but still lying on the horse's back, watching the dwarf gnawing beef jerky and pouring himself a drink.

It’s okay if you don’t look at it, but when you look at it, you feel very hungry. Let alone a few pieces of beef jerky, Neia has no doubt that she can swallow a whole cow in one gulp.

The dwarf turned around, blocked Neia's sight with his back, took out a small bottle from his pocket, uncorked the bottle calmly, handed a drop of black liquid into the water, shook it lightly, and handed it to Neia. .

Although Neia didn't see his movements, she had doubts about him.He didn't know what happened during the two days he was in a coma, but the dwarf's attitude was really strange.

Seeing that he didn't drink, the dwarf didn't force it. He took a sip into his mouth, then took out the beef jerky and stuffed it in his mouth carelessly.

Neia was dry and thirsty, so she just had to be cheeky and beg for water like a dwarf.The dwarf made fun of a few words, and finally fed the water into Neia's mouth.The water was clear and sweet, and Neia couldn't stop after taking a sip, and drank half of the water sac.

When he finished, the dwarf stared at him.

Neia looked uncomfortable, "What's wrong?"

The dwarf didn't answer, but just stared closely, and after an hour, he said meaningfully: "Sure enough."

Sure enough what?

The dwarf didn't say anything, and he didn't say anything after asking. Neia was puzzled, but found that his attitude towards her became more polite afterward.
