Logically speaking, Xie Agui's mood was very complicated.
He wanted nothing more than to sing a song at the top of his lungs, to express the sadness and melancholy in his heart.
"It's the second time …" He thumped his chest and stamped his feet. His hand trembled as he pointed at the innocent-looking monkeys around him. "Early in the morning, we were breathing in the fresh air, running laps, and listening to your lecture. Suddenly, we were splashed with feces!
If we hadn't been quick enough, now, now … "
Xie Agui's face was filled with grief and indignation. "Now, we've really become a dirty shrew!"
"… You're talking as if you're not now."
"Huh?"
"No, I mean …" Sun Lang pulled the iron-headed ape over with a gentle expression and patted the monkey's shoulder. "Now that he has abandoned the dark and joined the light, everyone is working under me. Don't kill each other and make others laugh.
Almost being splashed twice in one day can be considered a kind of ape feces, don't you think so? "
Xie Agui's conflicted expression clearly said, "Of course it's not right."
"Gui Zai, I know you can't take this lying down, but I've already taught him a lesson. Now, I'll let him apologize to you and treat you to a meal later. Then, this matter will end here. Are you going to roar?"
Sun Lang said with a smile, "We're people in the pugilistic world, so don't be so calculative. Look at that Fiery Thunderbolt Qin Ming. Although Third Fatty Song sent someone to pretend to be him to plunder the state capital and set him up, causing him to be regarded as a traitor. Not only did he lose his official position, but his wife was also hacked to death. However, Song Jiang apologized to him and married Hua Rong's sister to him. Qin Ming was not angry anymore, and this matter was over. In the future, he will be an honest henchman … Look at his values, how righteous!"
"… Although I don't know who Qin Ming is," Xie Agui said with a complicated tone, "I think he definitely doesn't like his original wife."
"Great minds think alike." Sun Lang nodded and said, "So let's let this matter go."
"… Is there any cause and effect between the two?"
Xie Agui suddenly shook his head and said, "No, this is too vexing. You don't have to worry about it. I'll fight with this guy and vent my anger first."
The Ironhead Ape saw that Sun Lang was obviously trying to take sides. He squinted and said, "Why would I be afraid of you? Come, come, come!
If I lose, I won't dodge and let you throw a bucket of shit at me! "
Xie Agui called out, "If I lose to you, you don't have to do anything, I'll fall into the dung bucket myself!"
Hearing this, Sun Lang's eyes lit up. He took two steps back and asked in surprise, "Is that true?"
"…"
Xie Agui and the Ironhead Ape looked at each other with strange expressions and suddenly felt very tired.
"Forget it, forget it …" Xie Agui shook his head and said, "I don't want to play anymore. You punish yourself by drinking three cups …"
Before the Ironhead Ape could show any joy, Xie Agui pointed at a golden-haired monkey and said, "That monkey has a ladle in his hand. The feces are all ready-made. Please go ahead."
Before the Ironhead Ape could get angry, Sun Lang said hesitantly, "That's not good, right? Three cups?
As the saying goes, two women, only one cup. You're too much … "
No matter how stupid Xie A 'Gui was, he could still tell that Sun Lang was taking sides. As the saying goes, even a clay figurine has some anger, a rabbit will also shoot an eagle when it is anxious. If a person is hot-blooded, they will not care about anything else. He looked at Sun Lang with an unfriendly gaze and raised his hand, about to speak.
"Hey, why are you still wearing the chain on your hand?" Sun Lang said with a gentle expression, "Come, I'll help you untie it."
It turned out that when Xie Agui broke free of the chain, he only used the centipede's venom to corrode the iron chain. The two parts of the chain were still handcuffed to his wrist. At that time, he thought that since he did not have any weapons, the chain was very tough and could not be damaged by swords. It was also very lethal when wrapped around his fist. Therefore, he did not untie it.
Now, Sun Lang stretched out his hand and gently broke it. The fine iron ladle broke into pieces of iron that were even more brittle than porcelain. The Ranger pulled it a few times, and the iron chain that Xie Agui spent a lot of effort to break was broken like dough. After untying Xie Agui, Sun Lang said as if nothing had happened, "What did you want to say just now?"
Xie Agui glanced at the broken iron chain on the ground and swallowed his saliva, "No … Nothing …"
As a bystander, Kong Zhongwu had long seen that Young Hero Zhou did not intend to mediate, but wanted to watch the show. He thought that it would be better to give Xie Agui a way out now, so he said, "Let's talk about your dispute later. Don't delay business. We have something important to report to Young Hero Zhou …"
As he said this, he looked at Xie Agui, "Is venting your anger more important, or is your life more important?"
He looked at Sun Lang and said in an agitated tone, "Young hero Zhou, that woman surnamed Lu, I'm afraid she's not a good person. The reason we're trapped here is because we were deceived by that femme fatale by her side. At that time you weren't here, so we hid in the cellar and didn't dare to come out. Suddenly that femme fatale appeared and told us to follow her. We thought it was you who sent her to pick us up …"
"I see."
Sun Lang nodded, not surprised. No wonder after Lu Shu-jen's b * tch personality appeared, Hei Xuan Dang disappeared. It turned out that he had received a secret order from the b * tch personality.
But who did this snake listen to?
"I guessed before that the person who kidnapped you must be someone you trust or are familiar with. After eliminating the possibility, it was either Hei Xuan Dang or Xianglin Sao …" Sun Lang touched his chin and pondered, "Now it seems that the one who kidnapped you was Hei Xuan Dang. Then the one who killed Zhao Si and He Chunlai's family was undoubtedly Xianglin Sao …"
When they heard Xianglin Sao's name, their eyes immediately flashed with the tragic and strange scene of her death. They could not help but shiver, and their faces showed sadness.
Sun Lang observed their expressions and frowned, "Looking at you, she's already dead?"
A trace of fear flashed in Xie Agui's eyes, and he explained what happened in a low voice. Sun Lang raised his eyebrows, "There's such a thing … Well, you just said that you didn't see anyone along the way?
And you didn't find any corpses or the smell of blood? "
Xie Agui nodded.
"Tsk, it seems that we worked for nothing this time."
Sun Lang looked around at the four people, and then pointed to the Iron Head Ape, "Before, we tracked all the way here, wanting to capture the leader of the Five Savages Gang and ask something.
I originally wanted to use the stealth skills I inherited from Master Kang to enter and investigate. After all, I'm quite good at Killer 47. But he insisted that it was better to throw feces inside and flood the seven armies with feces to smoke out the people inside. "
The four people who were almost drowned by the feces glared at the Iron Head Ape at the same time — this person was so disgusting.
The Iron Head Ape had a bitter feeling in his heart, but he could only take the blame with tears in his eyes. After all, it was better to be blamed than to be blamed in the future … This guy would definitely do such a thing …
Sun Lang threw the blame away as if nothing had happened, and continued, "Now it seems that this operation is meaningless.
After all, there is no one inside. They must have been sent away or dealt with in advance, which means that it is no longer the usual state inside. The enemy must have noticed something, or is preparing to do something … "
"In such a case, even if they were smothered by feces, the leader of the Five Savages Gang would definitely not appear …"
He thought for a moment and waved his hand, "Come, take me down to see the stone room where you were imprisoned."
Immediately, the Iron Head Ape commanded the monkeys to spread out and be on guard. If they encountered any suspicious people, they would warn them with their ape cries. With Sun Lang's speed, once the enemy discovered him, he would directly break through the wall and advance in a straight line, breaking out of the mountain in minutes. Even if the enemy had two more legs, he would not be able to escape from the old man's pursuit.
After the arrangement was done, Xie Agui's group and the Iron Head Ape, under the leadership of Sun Lang, re-entered the belly of the mountain through the vent. All the way back, the large underground room and the rooms on both sides of the corridor were indeed empty and silent. Sun Lang deliberately went to several stone rooms to take a look, "Everything is neatly arranged, and there is no sense of haste. It should not be an emergency transfer, but a step-by-step plan. Where did the people inside go?"
No one could answer his question. The six of them returned to the altar-like stone room.
After walking in, Sun Lang whistled.
The Iron Head Ape saw Hua Xiaoshuan and the Nine Catty old lady who were hung like shadow puppets, and then saw the strange arrangement and unknown sacrificial offerings in the altar. A trace of instinctive disgust and fear flashed in his eyes. He walked two steps closer and saw the corpse of Xianglin Sao. He was stunned for a moment and shouted, "This is … Wolf Woman!"
"As expected."
Sun Lang's eyes were shining, "The Wolf Woman of the Five Savages Gang is Xianglin Sao of the Eight Distresses. Now it seems that the identity of the Snake Woman is not far from the truth.
The Snake Woman is Lu Shu-jen's pet, and Xianglin Sao is one of the Eight Distresses. These two actually belong to the Five Savages Gang … Hey, the noble circle is really messy. "
He walked up the altar and first saw the dead flying centipede. Sun Lang squatted down and touched it twice. He found that the centipede was already a dried corpse, and the flesh and blood essence inside had disappeared. He could not help but show a surprised expression.
"Meng Nan."
He solemnly clasped his hands at Xie Agui, "You are not dead now. I guess you are already immune to poison, and your skills have improved greatly.
As far as I know, the last person who was bitten after being entangled by poison was called Guo Jing. He was doing very well … "
Xie Agui took a few seconds to understand Sun Lang's meaning. He waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, I don't have that ability, nor do I have the guts.
I did not eat this centipede. When I killed it, its body suddenly shot out a thick blood aura, as if it had a spirit. It rushed out of the stone room, and I don't know where it went … "
"Oh …" Sun Lang's face showed an 'oh Moses Roy' expression, "There is such a thing?"
He looked around and shot his gaze towards the sacrificial offerings placed on the altar. The entire altar was ghastly and suffused with a demonic aura. Within the hideous murals and strange containers were various colored and shaped living beings' limbs and blood of strange odors, and it caused one to feel coldness in one's heart with a single glance.
Sun Lang walked over, raised his foot, and kicked over a jar. The jar was engraved with a monster with a three-winged lion tail, a bull head, and bat wings. With a crash, it fell to the ground, and the things inside spilled all over the ground. Dark green liquid flowed out, and there were also some strange things. Anyway, when they took a look, a look of nausea appeared on their faces.
The paladin did not change his expression and snorted, "Ha, I haven't seen this thing in a long time."
He casually took a two-eared beast bottle, took a look inside, and threw it aside. It hit a bloody mural of a monster eating a human, and made a loud crash.
Just think about it, the surroundings of this strange, terrifying, and evil altar that was covered in lifelike, strange, and ghastly murals and evil beings. The entire altar emitted a brutal and strange aura that crushed all living beings, and it caused fear to arise out of nowhere in the hearts of others. On the other hand, a young man was rummaging through chests and cabinets while kicking about randomly ….
"I've heard of such a scene in operas …" Xie Agui's voice was almost inaudible. "Usually, some world-shaking monster or sealed demon Shura is released by such a reckless fool. Should we remind him to be careful?
If he really releases some terrible demon, none of us will be able to escape … "
Kong Zhongwu deeply agreed … After all, in this world where demons existed and people believed in ghosts and gods, Sun Lang's firm materialism could easily be treated as an idiot.
But before he could say anything, Sun Lang, who was fiddling with the offerings, turned around and smiled innocently. "It's okay. I can run faster than you guys anyway."
"…"
If it wasn't for the fact that I couldn't beat him, if it wasn't for the fact that I couldn't beat him, if it wasn't for the fact that I couldn't beat him …
Kong Zhongwu also had a conflicted expression on his face. He cautiously shouted, "Young Swordsman Zhou, Brother Xie is right. There's nothing wrong with being careful. Please be careful and don't touch anything carelessly. This place looks very strange. If you accidentally summon some terrifying monster, it won't be good …"
Sun Mo rolled his eyes. "What's there to be afraid of? When I was in Andariel's nest, I also kicked all the pots in there and got some equipment, gold coins, and potions. I didn't see that crazy woman say anything. Instead, she was very enthusiastic and gave me some equipment …"
He fiddled with the altar for a while and looked around. Perhaps there really wasn't any monster here, or perhaps this monster was also afraid of Master Sun's despotic power. In short, he made a mess of the altar, but there was no change.
Sun Lang stood up in satisfaction and stretched his body. "Ha, interesting, interesting …"
He kicked the beast goblet that was blocking his way to the side and pointed at the strange characters on the altar. "This is the ancient language of the demon race. It's very old. Legend has it that it was created by an elder of the demon race … Hmm, a very ancient person. I think only those who are above level eight in the demon language can barely understand it. This altar has the meaning of sacrifice, stripping, and extraction. It's probably trying to extract some kind of essence … Oh shit, that's good.
That's weird … "He turned around and looked at Xie Agui and the others. Their expressions had become extremely ugly.
Sun Lang tilted his head and said in a strange tone, "So, what did you say just now? What kind of thing came out of the centipede's body?"
Xie Agui took two steps back and said in a hoarse voice, "Extract the essence … What is it trying to do?"
Sun Lang said casually, "Maybe it's trying to summon some kind of demon king … Isn't this usually the trick?"
Xie Agui was silent for a moment. Suddenly, he knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly. His head hit the altar and made a heavy sound.
Sun Lang said casually, "You've always been thinking fast. This is not a good thing."
Xie Agui said resolutely and decisively, "I only ask you to save my life. If I'm lucky enough to escape this time, I'll be your lackey. I'll go east and I'll go west. I'll go through water and tread on fire without hesitation!"
"You're useless to me. I won't spend a lot of effort to save you. It's not difficult to save you in passing. However, it still depends on your own fate and fortune."
Sun Lang said calmly, "However, people who only know how to bet on others are usually not very stable. You'd better be careful."
He didn't know if Xie Agui understood or not, but he just nodded his head vigorously. Then he nimbly climbed up, and just like before, he proudly stood beside Sun Lang, thinking of himself as a lackey of the sect.
Sun Lang smiled. He really didn't care about this. "Then, let's go and see why this place is empty and what our enemy is up to …"
They left the stone chamber and walked toward the depths of the underground chamber. Before leaving, Sun Lang looked back at the five people following behind him. "… There are too many people. If there's any trouble down there, I may not be able to protect you. Otherwise, who doesn't want to follow me? Go up and wait?"
Xie Agui and the others all shook their heads. Are you kidding me? We're not idiots. Why would we split up at this time?
And leave the strongest person in the team?
"You'd better think it through."
Sun Lang said with a smile, "If things go wrong, I'll leave you behind and run away alone. You can't do anything about it. Even if you escape by yourselves, you can't do anything to me. Maybe I'll just kill you to silence you because I'm afraid that you'll hold grudges against me …"
… Why do you have to be so open about it?!
How many times have you done this?!
They didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But after looking at each other, they still made up their minds. The farmer seemed to have objections. Just as he was about to speak, Xie Agui looked at him coldly. "Everyone else can go up, but you can't!
You'd better not do anything suspicious. For the sake of Fourth Sister-in-law, I didn't mention what happened before. Don't be so shameless! "
Sun Lang smiled and looked at the farmer. "Why, he's passive?
Oh, I understand … When you were kidnapped by Hei Xuan Dang, he must have testified that Aunt Lu was reliable. But in the blink of an eye, he was knocked out and locked in a small dark room. What happened?
Is this guy colluding with the enemy?
Brother, I've always wanted to talk to you … "
The farmer suddenly raised his head and looked at Sun Lang. He said word by word, "Eldest Miss has her reasons!"
Sun Lang shook his head and smiled. "Which one are you talking about?"
