Welcome to the game room of luck supremacy

When Huo Lian saw Shen Rin and the others, his back stiffened for a moment, as if he had discovered some secret, he avoided Shen Rin's eyes and turned his head away.

The stunned young man hung his head and pushed open the door without saying a word, and the aura of a strong man who was gone and never returned came out like a blowout.

Shen Lin stopped him: "Send the head?"

Huo Lian: "..."

Huo Lian didn't say a word, and took a few steps outside, Shen Rin didn't stop him, and said flatly: "The village chief hasn't woken up yet, I read the county records, he only has your grandson left."

"I—" Huo Lian gritted his teeth, "I can't let that mountain ghost come here! It's a monster! It's a man-eating ghost! I'm going to kill him!"

"No one will let you go," Shen Lin followed Huo Lian's wishes, "I don't know where the mountain ghost is, what it looks like, and if you have any skills, you dare to stab it with a knife. We don't see warriors in our place, they are called reckless .You can go, just help us collect some information, and see how we will die."

Huo Lian choked, staring at Shen Rin with red eyes: "Then what do you say?!"

Shen Lin said: "Calm down. Let me ask you, was the mountain ghost who came here last night?"

"No," Huo Lian shook his head, "It's just the subordinate of the mountain ghost, and the mountain ghost never leaves that forest."

"How do you know?" Shen Lin asked back.

Huo Lian froze for a moment, he was actually not very sure, when the thick fog gushed out of the woods and the woods trembled, that little ghost would come out to patrol and devour all the creatures it saw on the road.

The villagers couldn't catch the law of his parade, so they could only strictly enforce the curfew every day to prevent sudden death.

Some people say that this little ghost is the mountain ghost, while others say that he is just a little ghost sent by the mountain ghost. They hid at the edge of the dense forest on the sacrificial day and secretly inspected it. The mountain ghost dragged heavy shackles on its ankles. There was no way to get out of the forest, so he used his breath to transform into a little ghost to patrol the land for him, looking for food.

"My grandfather said," Huo Lian lowered his eyes, and said, "The mountain ghost can't leave that forest, and only the little ghosts with its weak power are sent down."

"Have you seen that little ghost?" Shen Lin asked Huo Lian, looking at Huo Lian.

Huo Lian shook his head, then nodded again: "I didn't dare to meet him directly, I just hid behind the window and watched secretly."

"He didn't want to hurt you," Shen Lin said very directly, but his voice was soft and coaxing, "Alian, do you know why? He didn't attack you after seeing you, but chose to leave instead."

"I, I don't know..." Huo Lian obviously realized this too. He was the closest person to the monster at that time. Through the misty gray fog, he saw the huge body of the monster with his own eyes. Its surface was uneven. , like a toad with sarcoma, the skin was very rough and terrible. At that moment, he thought that he was sure to die, but he didn't expect that the stench falling in front of him would suddenly fade away.

"Maybe it's because of that stick..." Huo Lian looked blankly at the wooden stick on the table.

The wooden stick is nothing more than ordinary, it is made of tall wood broken off in the forest and flattened. It does not have any fancy patterns all over its body, and no one will care about it if it is sold by the roadside.

"Stick?" Shen Lin asked.

"That is a sacred object passed down in the village. It is said to be the scepter of the high priest."

"Isn't the high priest sacrificed as a sinner?"

"Yes, but the sacred objects have been handed down." Huo Lian couldn't explain clearly, he himself was fooled, "When the village sent people to encircle and suppress mountain ghosts, this wooden stick was given to the bravest villager at that time. .”

"He came back alive?"

"Well," Huo Lian nodded, "He died not long after. He couldn't stand the nightmare and committed suicide."

Shen Lin: "..."

Huo Lian suddenly understood something, his eyes returned to their usual sparkle, he grabbed the stick, and said, "I have to take it with me! If the night ghost is afraid of it, maybe it will be really useful to the mountain ghost!"

"I still want to die," Shen Lin said helplessly, "I haven't listened to persuasion for a long time."

"It's not—" Huo Lian gasped.

Yan Xiu glanced at his right ankle, lifted his foot and kicked it lightly. Huo Liandeng let out a "wow" and fell down on the chair, gasping for breath again and again: "It hurts—it hurts to death!" Already!"

He rolled up his trousers and hastily bandaged them. Unstoppable blood seeped from the white strips.

"The monster still hurt me," Huo Lian said dejectedly, "The black mist is as sharp as a sharpened knife."

"The wound is very deep," Yan Xiu knew from the amount of bleeding, "It almost hurt the bone, and if you can't take care of it, your leg will be limping."

"I don't even want my life, let alone my legs." Huo Lian gritted his teeth and said, "That monster has hurt people so much! I will kill him even if I try my best!"

No. 3 KP suddenly said: "Just listen."

Shen Lin threw 60/28, Yan Xiuyi threw 55/32, and after taking the average, they all succeeded.

The two of them heard what seemed to be a small voice coming from outside the window. Huo Lian's face changed, and he suddenly remembered something, but the next second, he hurriedly raised his voice and shouted: "Ah, I, Huo Lian, must kill the people! Two Immortal! Let's go to the forest again!"

Shen Lin pushed open the back window and saw a figure hiding in the grass with a "swoosh". Yan Xiu opened the window and pulled the man out of the grass.

He has a gray face, and his face is deliberately covered with mud so that no one can see it, but the boy who has appeared so far is only the little boy who defeated a bunch of strong men that night.

He grinned, before he finished speaking, Huo Lian hurriedly said: "You two immortals, this is a boy from the village, please let him go."

Yan Xiu threw the little boy on the ground. The little boy fell and hurt his buttocks. Before he could stand up straight, there was a gurgling sound in his stomach.

"I'm hungry." The little boy grinned at Huo Lian, "Brother Alian, give me something to eat!"

"Something happened last night." Huo Lian picked him up with his hands under his armpits, put him into the room, touched the boy's dirty head, and said, "Sit down for a while, I'll give you Take two pies."

"Hey!" The boy sat obediently on the chair, looked at Shen Lin and Yan Xiuyi's scrutinizing eyes, and said with a smile, "I can survive, thanks to Brother Alian's relief, he is a kind-hearted Bodhisattva!"

"Isn't there a lot of food in the woods?" Shen Lin asked, "The gift of those mountain ghosts, can't you eat that food?"

The boy said in embarrassment: "All that grows is rice. I can't make anything edible. Occasionally I eat some wild fruits and vegetables, which can only temporarily fill my stomach. For meat, I can only catch some fish and use traps to catch some. rabbit……"

Yan Xiuyi: "It's very rich."

Shen Lin: "..."

The little boy showed an aggrieved expression, and said, "But it's not always possible to catch them. Those animals in the forest are very cunning, and I, I... eat a lot, so I can only ask Brother Alian for help."

"How long have you known him?" Shen Lin asked.

"It didn't take long," the little boy scratched his cheeks, his bright eyes dimmed a little, and whispered, "Since I participated in the sacrificial ceremony, the villagers have... hated me, and they even suspected that I was possessed by a mountain ghost The monster wanted to beat me to death secretly, but brother Allen saved me, he let me live."

"Don't you suspect that there is something wrong with you?" Shen Lin asked back, "You are so edible with such a small body, and the priests in the village just want to choose the one who can eat to the end. You and the mountain ghost really have no relationship." anything?"

The boy looked at Shen Lin coldly, and asked lightly: "What if it matters? Will you kill me?"

Shen Lin was silent for a moment, and said, "Huo Lian really believes you? You just used Huo Lian's benevolence and kindness to deceive him and let him help you cover up your true identity unconsciously."

Shen Lin glanced at the boy's shoulder and said, "Over investigation."

He and Yan Xiu made separate rolls, and this successful roll made him clearly see that the boy was wearing worn-out clothes that had been changed from big to small. Although there were many patches, they were neat, and there was a dark mark on the shoulder that Shen Lin focused on. , there was a faint medicinal fragrance coming out.

In order to prove something, Yan Xiuyi pressed on the boy's shoulder, and the boy jumped up from the seat suddenly, screaming in pain.

At this moment, the half-closed door was pushed open, and an elderly woman walked in with a medicine box in her arms, and said enthusiastically, "Alian, I heard that you were injured. Aunt Wang has good medicine here." , " when she saw the boy, her voice suddenly rose, "it's you—it's you, the scourge!"

The boy bit his lower lip, turned around and opened the window to leave.

Huo Lian happened to come out with two pieces of cake. When he saw Aunt Wang, his expression changed, and he hurried up to stop him: "Aunt Wang! Calm down!"

Aunt Wang stared at Huo Lian, and asked forcefully, "You have been protecting that evil? Why is he here!?"

Huo Lian was speechless, and let Aunt Wang scold him with his head blank: "Do you know what kind of monster he is! He must have colluded with the mountain ghost! He was sent by the mountain ghost to kill us! How can you help us?" he!?"

Shen Lin glanced out the window, the little boy didn't leave, hid outside the window, looking up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

Aunt Wang scolded, seeing that Huo Lian was not enlightened, she didn't bother anymore, she went out and called other people to arrest the boy.

The boy concealed the loneliness in his expression, turned his head and smiled at Huo Lian and said, "Brother A Lian! Thank you for the cake!"

"Go away," Huo Lian rubbed his head again, "find a place to hide, they dare not go to that forest."

The boy hesitated to speak, he bit the cake and ran towards the woods, turned back halfway, and glanced at Huo Lian.

After he left, Shen Lin asked Huo Lian, "What's the matter with that little boy?"

Huo Lian hesitated and said vaguely: "It's just a little boy with a poor background... nothing special."

Shen Lin's eyes fell on the small bottle of ointment on the window sill. If it was said that the little boy had nothing to do with the mountain ghost, the ghost would not believe it.

But the relationship between him and Huo Lian is worth pondering.
