Chapter 903 Selecting Warriors
The night was as cold as water. When the two returned to Ah Cai's bamboo house, Ah Cai had already vacated a room for them to live in. He and Ah Gen were guarding the other side.
15 was taking care of the two children and Atawa in the secret compartment. The two looked at the children and saw that they were fine and lay on the bamboo bed to rest. Perhaps it was because they had talked it out, Yan Kuan's worries and fears were much less.
Yan Kuan actually didn't know that if he didn't say it, Shen Xiaoxiao would definitely not live alone if something happened. Moreover, Shen Xiaoxiao had told 19 when entering the ancient tomb that if necessary, Yan Kuan would be knocked unconscious and taken away, just to save Yan Kuan's life.
But now, Yan Kuan almost wanted to hide it from her and get involved alone. At this moment, Shen Xiaoxiao realized that they both wanted each other to live, no matter how wronged they were, or whether they were worried about life and death.
Instead of this, it would be better to talk it out and face it together. After talking it out, not only Yan Kuan but also Shen Xiaoxiao never felt so relaxed.
Didn't they say from the beginning that protecting the child is the most important thing, right?
"Go to sleep, there is another tough battle tomorrow."
"I can't sleep."
"Still want it?"
"Go, you are really horny and can't eat meat."
Yan Kuan couldn't help laughing when he heard Shen Xiaoxiao say that. If it wasn't late at night and the location was wrong, he really wanted to hug the beauty and be unbridled.
"But will the child be sent away tomorrow?"
"No, leave after the sacrifice is over. It is very likely that you will be caught if you go out tomorrow. Shen Guoan is not a fool."
"That's right, then tomorrow we will pretend to be villagers and go into the mountains together?"
"Yes, that's right, it can only be done this way, go to sleep."
The two of them were speechless, hugged each other tightly, and fell asleep...
...
Shen Guoan looked at An Yi and An Er sleeping on the ground with an unchanged expression. This Yan Kuan really has some skills. It's a pity that he is actually from the Ouyang family. Otherwise, he can be his grandson-in-law.
He was able to get rid of the people under such a powerful arrangement. He was really capable. Moreover, it seemed that he not only got rid of the people, but also lifted the spell of bewitching he made.
However, An Yi and An Er were not so easy to deal with. The spell he used was twice as powerful as those people, otherwise they would not have abandoned them.
Of course, it was good to abandon them. The seven secret guards could not match one of these two people. He had these two people as a trump card, but it was a pity for the blood of those strong men. With their rich yang energy, they were much stronger than those young people in the village.
Now it seems that we need to find more people. As for these two, since their master didn't want them anymore and wanted to give them to him, he would definitely not let them down.
"Take them away."
After Shen Guoan finished speaking, he slapped them hard on the top of their heads. Both of them spit out a mouthful of black blood, and then the whole person became stupid again and followed the bodyguard out.
Shen Guoan looked at the two mouthfuls of black blood on the ground thoughtfully. The power of this boy's urine is not small. It seems that he is really a reincarnated spirit boy. It is worth the decision he made that year. Xiaoxiao can really bring such a great opportunity to the Shen family.
...
"Dong Dong Dong..."
Just as the sky was getting light, the sound of gongs and drums in the village sounded. Yan Kuan turned over and sat up, covering Shen Xiaoxiao with a quilt to indicate that she didn't need to pay attention. He walked out of the door and watched Agen and Acai busy putting on clothes.
"An'an Dad, the village is urgently gathering. I don't know what happened again. Let's go and see first. I'll leave it to you here."
Agen explained to Yan Kuan a little, and Yan Kuan nodded and let the two leave. He followed to check what happened, but the whole village was destined to be in turmoil on this day. Such emergency gatherings would probably not be less than three times, so Yan Kuan didn't follow them in the end, but returned to the room to hold Shen Xiaoxiao and rest.
When Agen and Acai hurriedly ran to the altar, almost everyone in the village had arrived. They lived far away, and they were always the last to arrive. Everyone had long been accustomed to it. If it were not for the village rules that everyone must be present before announcing things, the chief would not wait for them at all.
At this moment, the chief looked at the team of nearly 400 people in the yard and said to everyone excitedly:
"The warriors we sent yesterday are already waiting for the arrival of our king, but the prophet told us that we still need 29 warriors as guardians to welcome the grand event tonight, so now, we will have 29 warriors born here."
After the chief finished speaking, he looked at everyone excitedly. As soon as the chief finished speaking, the crowd was already boiling, and even many young people were actively signing up. After the 20 warriors were selected and left, many young people who were not selected felt particularly sorry. Now there is still a chance, naturally everyone responded actively.
However, it is not so easy to select 49 warriors aged between 18 and 30. Their village is small, with a total population of more than 400 people. Excluding the elderly, fathers, daughters and children, there are not enough people.
If 29 more people are taken away at this moment, the whole village can be said to be only the old, weak, sick and disabled.
Acai was originally the most capable person to meet this requirement, but even if they did not have enough people and finally found a 15-year-old boy, no one hoped that Acai would go.
Warriors are the pride and hope of the village, but Acai's parents are not to be mentioned. They were the sinners of their village. Acai himself is not very likable. Moreover, this position is originally fought for by everyone. There is no difference between 15 and 16 years old. There are nearly 10 15-year-old boys in the village, which is not enough to share. So it is normal that Acai was not selected.
Of course, Acai himself was not willing to go at all. 49 warriors were selected to welcome the king. Who knows what they will do.
Since they have nothing to do and the people have been selected, everyone watched these warriors leave. As for the last sacrifice saint, they only need to wait until noon to sacrifice.
Acai and Agen walked back slowly. Because Agen's Atawa was burned to death by the fire, he was considered a person with a funeral at the moment, so he looked at Acai and no one in the village would talk to him.
The two walked back very peacefully and did not waste much time.
It took them nearly 2 hours to go back and forth. When they came back, Yan Kuan had already cleaned up and even cooked porridge. Of course, Yan Kuan only knew how to cook porridge.
"An An's father, I'll do it."
As soon as Ah Cai saw what An An's father did, he immediately took over the work. Ah Gen told Yan Kuan what had just happened.
Yan Kuan already knew what those young people were sent to do. They were all ground into human bones and blood, just to die. At this moment, he felt that Ah Cai was lucky. Not being sent away was the real good luck.
