"It's blood! Clean up the blood on your body!" Mo Zifei immediately reminded.

The smell produced by the fusion of blood and cedar tree sap is the source of attracting strange birds.

He threw a piece of clothing stained with fresh blood tentatively, and sure enough, a group of strange birds rushed towards the clothing.

After finding the reason, everyone started to act immediately.Those without wounds helped stop the strange bird, while those with wounds raced against time to treat the wounds.

If there is no time to clean up, simply tear off the cloth strips and wrap them tightly first.For those with serious injuries, the Holy Son cast a healing spell in due course to help stop the bleeding.

After tidying up hastily, the strange bird's desire to attack was not as strong as before.Taking advantage of this opportunity, everyone hastily continued to flee and evacuated from the cedar forest area.

After they ran out of the cedar forest, the strange bird did not chase after them any more, and the group of ferocious beasts seemed to retreat.

"Damn it! This bastard is more cunning than humans, and he tricked us hard." Temporarily out of danger, he breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, his oxygen-deprived brain finally came online again.

After this incident, they all thought about why they were contaminated with snake juice for no reason before, and encountered snakes.

Those wild beasts pitted them more than once!

Human beings pretend to be the spirit of all things, but this time their IQ is crushed by a group of wild beasts, why doesn't it make people vomit blood?It's just too exasperating!

"Is everyone here?" Captain Lie Yang glanced at everyone.

Counting silently, two were missing.One is the cat slave warlock, and the other is the young Jianxi from the mercenary group.

The Cat Slave Warlock was confirmed dead. He was besieged by strange birds after being seriously injured, and was attacked by ferocious beasts again, and died on the spot.

As for Jian Xi, "Reporting to the leader, I saw Jian Xi was chased by the strange bird and ran in another direction. Later, when the large army withdrew, I didn't see him return to the team."

Captain Lie Yang fell silent, silently putting a question mark behind his list.

"Temporarily rest in place, the scouting team will set off in a quarter of an hour."

Some hard broad-leaved trees, much shorter than cedars, grew in the temporary resting place.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Taoist sat around and set up a pot to cook something to eat.

The knights occupy a place, a wave of people rests, and a wave of people guards.Other mercenaries and warlocks made a group in twos and threes, some were cleaning wounds, some were chatting and eating.

Mo Zifei, who was alone, chose a distance not far from the team, leaned against a tree, and drank water quietly.

He silently looked at the fluttering snowflakes in front of him, and his thoughts did not know which time and space he flew to.

After a while, Shengzi left the protective circle of the Knights, walked to Mo Zifei's side, stood quietly and watched the snow together for a while.

"What's the matter?" After a while, Mo Zifei asked.

Shengzi shifted his gaze to the careless Mo Zifei, "I'm here to thank you. Thank you for discovering the incentive to attract strange birds and saving us."

"No need." Mo Zifei replied indifferently.

The Holy Son was silent for a moment, and then said: "Actually, I noticed you. You didn't say anything along the way, and you didn't like to be with others, and you didn't seem to be very emotional about anything. You seemed to be mediocre along the way. , but seems to be able to handle any situation with ease.”

"What do you want to express?" Mo Zifei looked up at him with a calm tone.

"I want to ask, why did you choose to join us? You don't seem like someone who would save the world, and you're clearly not doing your best. So, why?"

In fact, Shengzi felt that the way he stared at Luoxue just now revealed a hint of world-weariness.In short, a very contradictory person.

Mo Zifei took a sip of water, looked at him, and asked without answering, "What about you, Holy Son, and why?"

Frowning, the Holy Son replied solemnly: "Of course it is to save the common people in the world."

"Hehe, do you believe the altar sacrifice?" Mo Zifei got up, shook his head and sighed, "It's better to ask God than to ask yourself, maybe you can catch that chance."

Panicked, Shengzi worried that he had noticed something, opened his mouth to say something but didn't know what else to say.

It is better to ask God than to ask oneself...

After murmuring twice, the Holy Son looked at his hands and knelt down with his head in pain, "But what can I do?"

He hated his own weakness, and even more hated his inability to change this reality.

"What's the matter? What did he just tell you?" Seeing that something was wrong, Bai Fu rushed over immediately, gently supported his shoulder, and asked in a soft voice, but his eyes were full of eyes when he glanced at Mo Zifei's back. murderous look.

The Son shook his head and remained silent.

Bai Fu, who knew him well, didn't persuade him anymore, and quietly stayed by his side.

After half an hour, the reconnaissance team came back, and Lie Yang's head had chosen a place for today's rest.

There are still many things waiting for him to make decisions, and the Holy Son has no extra time to give up on himself. After adjusting his emotions, he got up, and there was a peaceful and kind smile on his face.

Seeing the slightly red corners of his eyes, Bai Fu reached out to hold his hand, and said softly but firmly: "No matter what you decide, I will be by your side. Don't be afraid."

He thought the Son was afraid of offering sacrifices.The closer they got to the altar, the more they reminded him of his approaching death.

"Don't think too much, I'm fine." Shengzi replied with a smile.

Transfer to the selected camp, set up temporary tents, cook and eat.Everyone has been vigilant against the group of beasts to do things again.

However, until they walked out of the woods, crossed the snow-covered grassland, and were about to reach their destination, they did not encounter the group of wild beasts again.

That day, they actually saw a lake in the ice and snow, a steaming hot spring lake!

The legendary altar is the center of the lake, and everyone is very excited.They cheered and held a simple bonfire party by the lake that night.

Just waiting for the next morning, they were ready to cross the lake to the altar.

In the middle of the night, there are many people who cannot sleep.

Bai Fu pushed open the door of the Son's tent.

"You..." Shengzi lay in his clothes, sat up when he heard the sound, and looked at him suspiciously, "Did you come to say goodbye?"

Bai Fu stepped forward quickly, hugged him, buried his head in his neck, choked up and said: "I regret it."

"I don't want you to die. I don't want to accept your decision. I don't want to trade you for the whole world."

He whispered hoarsely, with desperate determination, "Let's run away."

"Bai Fu, calm down. Don't do this." Shengzi looked at Bai Fu who was completely out of control, and he never thought that he would propose to run away.

"I can't calm down!" Bai Fu roared in a low voice, "You're just lying to me, right?"

"Tell me the truth, will God really come? You swear to the God of Light, no, you swear by the glory of the Holy Court!"

Bai Fu knew him too well. The Holy Son cared more about the Holy Court than the God who only existed in legends.

"Don't force me." The Son was annoyed.

But Bai Fu was even more angry, "You are forcing me!"

In an instant, he understood that it was a lie that the so-called altar sacrifice could summon the gods to descend.

Like the carrot hanging in front of the rabbit that inspires it, it's just out of reach.Not even a carrot, because at least the hanging carrots are real.

"Follow me!" Bai Fu forcefully pulled the Son up.

He would never allow Carlo to make such a meaningless sacrifice!

The author has something to say: Holy Son→_→: To be honest, do you have a crush on me?

Bai Fu (?｀?Д??)!!: I am not, I am not, don't talk nonsense!
