[Honghuang + Liao Zhai Breaking Demons
Chapter 74
"Hey, is there anyone inside?" The voice suddenly sounded above the head just now, accompanied by two knocks on the stone slab.
"Yes, there is someone," Qiao'er was overwhelmed with surprise, and rushed to respond before wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Is that Mr. Shi outside, please help us,"
Shi Chen looked sideways slightly, and he could also hear the somewhat familiar voice outside the cellar, it was Shi Yiming and Mr. Shi, who stayed in the room next to him last night and had an acquaintance with him in the morning.
"Hey, Miss Qiao'er, why are you locked in there? Are you alone?" Shi Yiming's voice seemed a little vague through the stones outside.
"There is still Mr. Shi Chen." Qiao'er thought for a while and added, "We were bullied by a villain in the village and locked in the cellar. The villain has gone far away now. I hope Mr. Shi kindly rescued me. The little girl will be grateful in the future. "
Qiaoer explained in a few words, deliberately making the listener mislead the matter into personal hatred.
After all, if the whole village is involved in this, as an irrelevant outsider, most of them will turn a blind eye in order to protect themselves.
So, she was quite wise in not coming out with the whole thing.
"Mr. Shi Chen is here too? Wait a minute, I'll rescue you right away!" Shi Yiming heard that the young gentleman with exquisite eyebrows was also in the cellar in the morning, so he quickly swung his arms and began to move stones in a hurry.
"..." Qiao'er silently stared at the dark cellar above her head, why did this Mr. Shi suddenly become excited like a chicken blood?
Although Shi Yiming said that he was dressed in a white shirt and a jade crown, and was dressed like a typical rich son, and his strength was not as strong as Wang Er, who hunted and patrolled the mountains all the year round, but he was still considered a normal adult man, and finally managed to push Shi Yiming away with all his strength. The block was moved down from the cellar mouth.
After breaking open the cellar lock, sporadic light poured in from outside, and Shi Yiming's appearance of being out of breath with exhaustion immediately came into view.
He took out a champagne from his pocket and wiped the sweat from his forehead and neck, showed a warm smile, and said with concern: "Young Master Shi, Miss Qiaoer, are you all alright?"
Qiao'er: "It's okay, please trouble Mr. Shi to help find Zhang Ladder."
After wiping his sweat, Shi Yiming said, "Okay, I'll go out and look for it right away."
After finishing speaking, he stood up neatly and began to search for usable things nearby.Fortunately, this deserted wooden house was located in a remote place with few people. Wang Er did not expect that there would be people coming at this time, so he casually threw the drawn ladder into the haystack at the door.
Shi Yiming quickly found the discarded ladder, and successfully rescued the two people in the cellar.
"Thank you, Mr. Shi, for saving me. My daughter is very grateful." Qiao Er gave a blessing to Shi Yiming as soon as she came out of the cellar.
"You're being polite, it's just a matter of raising your hands." Shi Yimingxu helped Qiao'er up, with the attitude of a handsome young man, his eyes turned to Shi Chen, who looked calm at the side.
"Young Master Shi was not shocked, right? It's all because Shi came a step late. He didn't expect such a vicious villain to exist in such a pure mountain village. After Shi returned to Beijing, he decided to report to the prefect and send people to arrest him. This person is just as fair as Young Master Shi and Miss Qiao'er." Shi Yiming spoke uprightly.
Shi Chen glanced at him thoughtfully, nodded and said nothing.
On the other hand, Qiaoer showed gratitude and thanked him repeatedly, as if he thought that Mr. Shi was a rare good man, not only rich, but also quite righteous.
"What are these things?"
Shi Chen glanced around and found that there were some sea bowls filled with dishes and snacks neatly arranged in the courtyard, as well as sesame oil paper money, and yellow talisman sacrificial wine, and the entrance of the cellar was right in the middle of these strange arrangements!As soon as you climb out of it, you can see three pig heads, sheep heads and cow heads placed side by side in your face...
As soon as the bleak night wind blew past, it made one's skin crawl for no reason, and even one's hair stood on end.
"Here, these are the three animals used for sacrifice..." Qiao'er turned pale, shook her body, and her voice became shrill, "My uncle and aunt really sacrificed me to the lake god! For more than ten years, I have treated them like my own Parents, just throw away such a deep family relationship?!"
Shi Chen took a deep look at Qiao'er, whose face was full of despair and collapsed, and said in a cold voice, "If you have revenge, you will repay your injustice. When you know that they are the real culprits who killed your biological parents, they are no longer relatives. Now They teamed up with the brothers of the Wang family to set up a trap to trap you to death, and then you are only an enemy. Not to mention that they have raised you for more than ten years, and their kindness is hard to repay, and you have served them for more than ten years. The two don’t owe each other. Distinguishing between likes and dislikes, knowing people’s desires, this is the way to behave.”
"Yes...you are right, they are not my relatives for a long time." Qiao'er lowered her eyebrows and seemed to have calmed down, only the coldness left in her eyes. "My biological parents are still waiting for me to avenge them."
Shi Yiming looked at this one on the left and that one on the right, swallowed his saliva, his eyes flustered, he just felt like a little white rabbit accidentally caught between two evil wolves, although he didn't understand what was going on, but It seems that only myself is the purest and kindest one.
"By the way, what is Shi Gongzi looking for in this barren mountain so late?" Shi Chen turned his head and smiled at him.
Shi Yiming trembled inexplicably, and quickly told the truth: "There was a hole in the stable of the village chief's house, and my baby disappeared along with it. Uh, it was the white horse. It was the best horse in a hundred that I found from the Western Regions." , noble blood, pure white fur, able to travel thousands of miles a day..."
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and in the end he even looked fanatical. Once rare treasures were mentioned, this person would become like this.
"Okay, Mr. Shi, if you don't want to dedicate your life to the Lake God, I think we'd better leave this place first. If there is no accident, that thing will be here soon." Shi Chen interrupted Shi Yiming's long praise.
"Ah? Lake God? What is that?" Shi Yiming didn't know why.
"Mr. Shi is not safe here, we will explain to you after we go out." Qiaoer persuaded.
"Oh, good."
Anyway, he has also searched this forest, and his precious white horse should not appear here.
Now that people have been rescued, there is no need to stay any longer.
In the pitch-black night sky, the starlight is bleak, and the waning moon hidden in the depths of the dark clouds is actually a bit scarlet. The leaves in the forest are rustling, as if countless demons are hiding in the dark, quietly coveting.
Stepping on the soft soil under their feet, two men and a woman are hurrying towards the lake. This path is the shortest way to the village.
The footsteps of the three appeared messy and flustered.However, those with excellent hearing will find that there is a footstep inside that is steady and light from the beginning to the end, without rushing.
It's just that the other two present were flustered and didn't notice it.
Shi Yiming panted while running: "Why... why, I, we have to run so fast? I'm going, I can't run anymore..."
Qiaoer had a serious face: "Mr. Shi, didn't I explain it to you? As this year's sacrifice, the Lake God will appear at any time to take our lives."
Shi Yiming: "...but, but I'm obviously not a sacrifice."
Shi Chen asked strangely, "Then why are you running with us?"
Shi Yiming: "..." Why do you suddenly feel like an ape with fishy lips?Nima Laozi didn't want to talk anymore, it was a waste of energy. _(:з」∠)_
Qiaoer: "..."
After running for a while, Shichen suddenly sighed.
Qiaoer turned her head back: "Brother Xiaochen, what's wrong with you?"
Shi Chen: "Although this is the shortest distance back to the village, I'm afraid it is also the road with the greatest chance of encountering the 'God of the Lake'."
Qiaoer: "..." _(:з"∠)_Why didn't you say it earlier, you said earlier that I would not choose this path, don't be scary.
It's a pity that Shichen obviously didn't have the slightest telepathy with Qiaoer, so he turned his head calmly and looked to the other side.
"Mr. Shi, is the BMW you lost covered in snow and white, without a single hair, and has a touch of blood red on its forehead?"
"Huhu...huu...you, how do you...know?" Shi Yiming was almost exhausted like a dead dog.
"Ah, I think I found your horse." Shi Chen stretched out a finger, pointing to the dark bushes ahead.
There was a monster covered in black scales. It looked like a fish but not a fish, and a snake but not a snake. Its huge mouth was full of serrations, like a sharp and powerful saw knife, chewing something in the darkness. .
With Shi Shi's inhuman eyesight, he has already seen clearly that it is a white horse with strong limbs, and the meat is quite delicious due to the year-round running.But at this moment, there was no life in his dark spiritual eyes, the flesh was brutally bitten open from the neck, and the dripping blood soaked the snow-white fur.
Before they could stop, they ran a few steps forward.At this time, Shi Yiming and Qiao'er finally saw clearly the monster living in the bushes and devouring horse meat.
The two of them turned pale with shock, and Shi Yiming, who was exhausted and out of breath, suddenly lost strength, his legs and feet went limp, and he sat on the ground, staring at the monster in the dark with his wide eyes in panic.Qiaoer was not much better, when standing beside her, Chen could even hear her teeth chattering up and down.
But as ordinary people who saw a non-human monster for the first time, Qiaoer and Shi Yiming were pretty good, at least they didn't scream to attract the monster's attention, and they didn't incontinence urinate their pants and pollute the air.
"It, is it the lake god?" Qiao'er asked in a trembling voice.
"It should be." When the scene was the calmest, he looked at the lake monster carefully.
"While it's here, it's eating... I, let's leave quietly first." Shi Yiming's face was still pale and bloodless, but he quickly calmed down from his fear and found the best solution so far.
Shi Chen nodded: "That's a good idea, but it seems too late."
The crocodile lake monster obviously sensed the breath of fresh flesh and blood from the stranger, and raised his head from the gluttonous chewing on the horse meat, his small yellowish-brown eyes fixed on the three people on the path!
The two dark nostrils fluttered twice, as if they were distinguishing the smell of the people in front. I wonder which one is better than the delicious horse meat?
"Run, run, let's run!" A strong desire to survive burst out from Qiao'er in an instant, she turned around and started running in the opposite direction.
Shi Yiming gritted his teeth and stood up from the ground, followed closely behind, also fleeing for his life.
When life is strongly threatened, people with a strong will can always burst out with amazing power, and miracles are often born in this way.
"Yes, there is someone," Qiao'er was overwhelmed with surprise, and rushed to respond before wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Is that Mr. Shi outside, please help us,"
Shi Chen looked sideways slightly, and he could also hear the somewhat familiar voice outside the cellar, it was Shi Yiming and Mr. Shi, who stayed in the room next to him last night and had an acquaintance with him in the morning.
