Mirror lake

Chapter 8 Praying Mantis Catches Cicada Who Is the Oriole

When Tang Tang came back, he saw that the door was wide open, there was no one in the room, and there were messy marks on the ground. The second uncle followed Tang Tang and saw all this and asked, "Priest, this..."

Tang Tang's expression didn't change, but he betrayed him by clenching his pale hands: "Hmph, some people just like to mess around."

"Then, shall we..."

Tang Tang rubbed the muddy footprints on the ground: "No, everyone has to pay for what they do...no one is an exception..."

"Yes." The second uncle replied respectfully.

"Let's go, tonight's ceremony can't be messed up."

The two turned and left, and the room remained as it was before.

Tang Tang walked all the way to the edge of Mirror Lake, looking at the calm lake water, just like its name, the lake surface is like a mirror, reflecting everything, it has not changed for thousands of years, only people's hearts have changed.

"You have fulfilled the wishes of millions of people, so who will fulfill your wishes."

The surrounding was quiet and silent, and no one could answer this question. Tang Tang stood by the lake for a long time, squinting his eyes, as if wanting to merge with the lake.

The second uncle came over with a group of people holding red packages, lowered their heads slightly and said, "Priest, everything is ready, and you should be ready too."

Tang Tang nodded and opened his hands. Immediately, someone stepped forward and took off Tang Tang's clothes, and took out a white gown made of yarn from one of the red packages, and put it on for Tang Tang, so that the half-covered and half-exposed The appearance is very attractive, but it is a pity that no one appreciates it. Everyone lowers their heads as if they want to see through the ground under their feet.

Tang Tang put on her gauze dress, slowly approached the lake, and walked into the lake step by step, her face was indifferent, and the people on the shore knelt and sat on the ground with their hands clasped in front of their chests, as if they were praying for something.

After a long time, human voices came from the woods, but this place seemed to be isolated from the world, no one moved, no one spoke.

Sometimes the quieter you are, the more you want to break.

"Yo, is our High Priest still in the mood to take a bath?" The person who came was Li Yao, who had been tidied up in an afternoon, and the person behind him was Uncle Li.

"Uncle Li, are you going to betray the priest?" Second Uncle said coldly.

"Priest? He is not worthy to be a priest at all!" Uncle Li roared emotionally with red eyes.

"As long as he is still a priest, he will always be a priest. Li Yao, you deliberately murdered a priest, and you should be punished for that. Now that the ceremony is in a hurry, you will be punished at another time. Someone will come and suppress the rebels."

The second uncle's words hadn't finished yet, and he didn't see the expected result. Li Yao laughed in front of him, "Second uncle, second uncle, I really admire your stupid loyalty. See for yourself, is there anyone else?"

The second uncle looked around, and the people who were praying stood up and walked behind Li Yao. The second uncle's indifferent face finally changed, "You guys!"

"Second Uncle, don't worry, because you are so loyal, I won't do anything to you. After all, our priest also needs a foolish and loyal dog, hahaha!"

"Hey, there is always only one priest, so how can you have any priests?"

"Why not, someone, please come out, Lord Priest..."

A little girl in red clothes came out from the crowd, everyone moved away, the second uncle took a closer look: "So it's you?"

Under the support of the red priestly costume, the little girl looks even more lovely, just like the piranha's disguised appearance.

"Second Uncle~ I respect everything you have done for the village. Don't worry~ I won't do anything to you. After all, what you respect is only the priest." violation.

The second uncle was unmoved: "If you want to hurt the priest, step over my corpse first."

"Second Uncle, why are you so stubborn? The priest you respect may not protect you. His purpose is to have all of us die here. Do you want to protect the priest?" Li Yao pretended Distressed look.

The second uncle stared into Li Yao's eyes, for a moment Li Yao felt as if he was being stared at by some kind of beast, and his throat would be torn in the next second, and then the second uncle's voice sounded: "Since it is the priest's order, you must obey it, There is no reason for betrayal."

"Hey... Then you don't blame me." Li Yao spread his hands helplessly, and waved back, "Grab it."

Then a group of people rushed forward, and the second uncle was able to parry at first, but in the end he could only be pinned to the ground in embarrassment and could not move.

"Li Yao! You will be punished sooner or later!" Because his face was facing down, the second uncle's voice was particularly indistinct.

"Retribution? Come! Who will take revenge on me! Mirror Lake?! Hahahahaha, sooner or later, Mirror Lake will be mine?! Sooner or later, you people will submit to me!" Li Yao went up and kicked his feet with madness in his eyes. Pushing the second uncle's head.

At this time, the sound of "crashing" water came from the mirror lake, and when everyone looked over, they saw a beautiful woman in white gauze, with graceful posture and elegant movements, stepping out of the lake, and came to the shore in a leisurely manner. , picked up the red priest's gown that had been thrown on the ground to cover his eyes, some unsteady villagers swallowed subconsciously, Li Yao turned his head and glared at them.

"My lord priest, is this trying to impress someone? I wonder if this second uncle has already paid for this delicacy in the world?"

The second uncle struggled suddenly and violently, and his words were vague: "Trash! Priests are something you can think about overnight!"

Li Yao kicked his second uncle on the head again: "Shut up, old man, once a gentleman becomes a courtier, a prisoner will look like a prisoner."

Tang Tang looked at everything that happened in front of him indifferently: "Uncle Li, this man's ambition is so clear, do you still want to follow him and be slaves for the rest of your life?"

Uncle Li saw Li Yao kicking and beating his second uncle so cruelly, he couldn't bear it, he knew Li Yao's ambition, but...

"So what! Follow him, at least you still have your life." Uncle Li turned his head to the side, avoiding himself.

"Don't you think you will never have to pay for what you did?" Tang Tang straightened his clothes by himself.

"Don't you know the real reason why you did this? You are just afraid that what Li Yao said is true, and you are just guilty."

Uncle Li's eyes flickered: "We were really sorry for you back then...we..."

Li Yao suddenly said, "Uncle Li, there is no turning back when you shoot a bow~"

Uncle Li was stunned, and then knelt down in front of Tang Tang: "Tang Tang, we were sorry for you at the beginning, but we just wanted to live because of it, and now... I'm sorry! Tang Tang!" Uncle Li rushed towards Tang Tang Tang Tang, holding a sharp knife in his hand, obviously wanted to put Tang Tang to death, Tang Tang was always weak and couldn't dodge a sudden blow.

Li Yao was imagining what he would get after Tang Tang's death, when he saw the tip of the knife stopped centimeters away from Tang Tang's abdomen, Li Shushun grabbed his hand and looked up, when he saw the person coming, he trembled and let go The hand holding the knife: "Qin...Qin..."

"Yue..." Qin Yue received it, as if returning to the day when the two met, with the same stammer, the same answer, and a different mentality.

Qin Yue waved his hands and made an aiming gesture and said to Li Yao: "You bully my wife so much, are you ready to die?"

Li Yao looked at the drenched man in disbelief: "No...no...impossible!"

"The reversal of the plot is so unbelievable, Li Yao, look at who this is?" Qin Yue pointed to the side, and saw a tall and thin man with wet clothes sticking to his body, but his eyes revealed the momentum But it was extremely firm.

"Wu Yuqing!" Li Yao shouted.

"I'm surprised to see that I'm still alive, Li Yao, I told you I'll make you pay the price."

"how is this possible!"

"I have to thank my lord priest, otherwise I would be caught by you just like them...Li Yao, how does it feel to be miscalculated?"

"You're talking nonsense! I didn't do anything!"

Uncle Li sensed something was wrong: "Li Yao! What does he mean! Could it be that you killed those young people?"

"Uncle Li, you listened to the nonsense of a foreigner! It was Tang Tang who killed them."

Wu Yuqing sneered: "Do you think everyone is a fool? I don't know who killed my friend? Can I still help the enemy?"

Uncle Li rushed over with his face flushed and grabbed Li Yao's collar: "Why?!"

Li Yao let Uncle Li grab him without struggling, as if he had given up resisting, looked at Tang Tang and said, "Why? Because I hate him! When Qin Yue abandoned him and left, I was always by his side, but he didn't look at it. My eyes! Why?! I hate him! I want to make his life worse than death! Qin Yue thinks you are lucky to be rescued by Wu Yuqing. I think your friend may not be so lucky, hehehe, Wu Yuqing, if you kill Tang Tang now, I will let He Xiayan and the others go, how about it?"

Wu Yuqing looked at Qin Yue and Tang Tang and smiled sullenly: "Li Yao, Li Yao, you still want to control Jinghu with your IQ? Why do you think I can rescue Qin Yue from you?"

Li Yao was stunned: "What do you mean?"

A crisp voice said: "Brother Li Yao, why do you believe so firmly that I will help you after you plot against me? Besides, you are so ugly, and Brother Tang is more beautiful (*/\*)"

Li Yao looked at the little girl...and the three strangers beside her in a distorted posture.

He Xiayan rushed to Wu Yuqing first, threw herself into his arms and began to cry: "Yuqing... woo... Fortunately, you are fine..." Wu Yuqing gently stroked He Xiayan's hair and comforted her in a low voice.

Aunt Li also came out from the crowd and said: "Old man! Everything is Li Yao's conspiracy, he is the one who wants to kill us."

Uncle Li pushed Li Yao to the ground with force: "What's going on?"

The person who was holding down Second Uncle let him go a long time ago, and he wiped the mud off his face when everyone was confronting each other, and now he has recovered his stern face: "Tang Tang has seen Li Yao's ambitions for a long time, So after calculating this, if it weren't for Qin Yuelai, these things wouldn't have happened. When Wu Yuqing and his party came, Li Yao felt that the time had come, and secretly killed the others. When Tang Tang found out, there was nothing he could do. After saving it, I came up with a tricky way to force Li Yao out, but I didn't expect Qin Yue to come, so in order not to make Li Yao suspect, I can only wrong Qin Yue and suffer some hardships."

Qin Yue waved his hand: "I can't talk about grievances, it's just that this trash has done so many strange things by himself and thinks that no one knows, it's disgusting."

Qin Yue went up and kicked him violently: "You insulted Tang Tang!" After speaking, he ran to Tang Tang's side, touched Tang Tang's face and said, "Baby, are you alright?"

Tang Tang shook his head and wiped Qin Yue's wet face with his sleeve: "Brother Qin, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you. In fact, I hated the people in the village at first, and it was because of them that I couldn't go out to find you. I also thought about letting them be buried with you, but after you came, especially after you decided to stay, I suddenly didn’t hate it anymore. The villagers were forced to do nothing, just like what Uncle Li said, they just wanted to live, they just dealt with it. The method is rather extreme. After you came, I feel that I have not lost anything, but I am surrounded by love... But... Li Yao must not let it go, his ambition is too big, and he even killed Yuqing's friend! It almost caused irreparable damage."

Qin Yue grabbed Tang Tang's hand: "Baby, don't tell me I'm sorry. You did the right thing, and I will support you unconditionally. If you did the wrong thing, I will help you deal with the aftermath. As for Li Yao, I don't think anyone will let it go." Him."

Everyone nodded in tacit agreement. Li Yao almost caused them to lose their priests. Even though the priests really wanted to kill them, nothing happened. Play around and around!

Tang Tang didn't pay attention to everyone's thoughts, and laughed when he heard Qin Yue's petty and ruffian words, and the sound of breathing came from the surroundings. The picture book said "Looking back and smiling, Bai Meisheng" is nothing more than that!The tense atmosphere was instantly leaked by this smile like a balloon poking a hole, and everyone relaxed unconsciously.

Aunt Li smiled awkwardly at this moment: "Brother Qin, I'm sorry, I still wanted to return your food from Jinghu Lake, but fortunately Tang Tang stopped me, I'm sorry!"

"It's okay, ma'am, I know it's not easy for you."

Several people in the village lowered their heads guilty, probably because they had some small thoughts.

He Xiayan came out of Wu Yuqing's arms, and said to Tang Tang with red eyes, "Tang Tang, I'm sorry, I've always been prejudiced against you, my little sister told me that you saved Yuqing, thank you."

Tang Tang shook his head, seeing that the couple in front of him finally got together, he smiled unconsciously.But then his face turned pale, he squatted down covering his heart, everyone surrounded him, Qin Yue patted Tang Tang's back and asked impatiently: "Baby! What's wrong!"

"Hehehehe... Do you think it's over if you catch me? Jinghu's greed has always existed! You are all going to die! Hahahaha!"
