Chapter 1157 Demon Forest
Situ Lan was very helpless, so he had no choice but to open the door and walk out, looked at the door plate, and suddenly opened his mouth in astonishment, escorting the kissing team? What kind of recruitment is this!
I can't laugh or cry in my heart, why no one is going to this kind of recruitment, if there are some lazy people, they must be willing to do this kind of task that is easy to make money and not tiring.
Not long after, the young man led an old man over, and the old man knelt down excitedly before he could speak.
Situ Lan hurriedly helped the old man up, and sat on the chair with a wry smile: "You don't have to be so polite, it's just a procession to see off your relatives."
"It's not easy for us to send off relatives." The old man looked at Situ Lan very surprised: "Didn't you see where we said to send it to?"
"I see, I sent you to Ningshi Island through the Demon Forest." Situ Lan blinked, "Is there anything wrong?"
The two people glanced at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. The old man took out the map and put it in front of Situ Lan: "You really don't know where the Demon Forest is? Aren't you from here?"
Smiling helplessly, Situ Lan had no choice but to nod.
The old man glanced at the young man beside him, and said to Situ Lan in a blink of an eye: "If there is no problem, we can set off immediately, go to the lower mansion, discuss the process in detail, and after signing the agreement, we will pay half of the reward first , I will pay the other half when it comes back in good condition." He cupped his hands and said, "I'm Xia Yitian."
Situ Lan also hastily cupped his hands: "I'm Situ Lan."
So that night, Situ Lan and Yi Tianchao walked to the mansion.
The old man explained the whole mission process at night and placed Situ Lan in a guest room.
In the early morning of the second day, Situ Lan followed these people on the road.
There are quite a few people in the entourage, but they all seem to be subordinates of Yi Tian's family.
Greeting each other, a group of people walked in one direction.
"Where are we going?" Situ Lan was a little puzzled.
"Of course I went to pick up the bride." Yi Tian rode beside Situ Lan, smiling happily: "The bride lives in a village not far away. host."
Situ Lan narrowed his eyes and followed Yi Tian without saying a word.
They chatted without saying a word all the way, and in less than half a stick of incense, they had already arrived at the young lady's house.
The door of the lady's house has been decorated with lights and festoons, and red is flying everywhere, which is extremely gorgeous.
The whole village knew that this young lady was getting married.
"I heard that this lady is a well-known beauty in the whole village, but she has been waiting to be married. If the parents hadn't forced her to marry the island owner this time, she might have become an old lady and couldn't get married."
"So, so there is such a custom here?" Situ Lan stood outside the door with a group of people, watching two maids help a girl with a red cloth veil come out of the house and walk towards the carriage.
Faintly, it seems that the girl's cry can still be heard.
The people around me seem to be very heavy, only the parents are there, smiling very happily.
As the girl was sent to the carriage, the person at the door drove the carriage, and the group headed towards the Demon Forest.
The big red carriage was extremely conspicuous on this small island, and it passed by all the way, attracting the attention of everyone around.
Situ Lan sat on the horse, looked left and right, and everyone cast curious eyes.
Suddenly, in the crowd, Situ Lan saw a familiar figure from Huanxiang!
At this moment, Cong Huanxiang was standing in the crowd, and the two looked at each other unpreparedly.
Cong Huanxiang frowned, with tears glistening in his eyes, and suddenly, he raised his hand to wipe his eyes, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.
Situ Lan's heart tightened, and he sighed again. Maybe it's really not good to escape like this, but in the current situation, Situ Lan gave a wry smile, turned his head away, and continued to walk forward.
Soon, the team moved from the downtown area to the remote wilderness.
From the beginning to the end, the girl in the red sedan chair did not show her face.
By dusk, everyone had come to the foot of the mountain.
"Climb over this mountain and pass through the Demon Forest to reach Ningshi Island." Yi Tian ordered everyone to dismount and set up camp at the foot of the mountain: "But it's too late, we can't enter the mountain, and we have been walking for a day , so stay here first, and leave tomorrow."
Having said that, everyone began to set up camp quickly until the sky was completely dark.
Everyone started to take out dry food, and some people went to hunt hares nearby. We lit a fire, talked and laughed, although we were tired, everyone was very happy.
Situ Lan turned to look at the red carriage. The girl in the carriage hadn't spoken or made any requests. Situ Lan couldn't help but feel a little strange, so he picked up the freshly roasted hare and walked towards the carriage.
"Girl, come down and have something to eat. You've been walking for a long time, so you should be hungry." Situ Lan stuck to the side of the carriage and said.
Suddenly, there was a sound in the carriage. Immediately afterwards, the curtain was lifted from a small gap, and a beautiful and slender hand stretched out from inside.
Situ Lan reached out and handed the hare in his hand to her. After taking the hare with that hand, he retracted it.
There was no sound again.
Situ Lan felt bored, so he was about to go back to everyone. Suddenly, a small but pleasant voice came from the carriage behind him: "Well, please wait a moment."
After pausing, Situ Lan sighed, turned around and walked over, standing beside the carriage: "Miss, please tell me."
"I, my that..." The girl inside seemed to be very uncomfortable, and she hesitated for a while without explaining it. After a long time, she finally said very shyly: "I think that...you, can you accompany me."
Situ Lan felt a little embarrassed, but after looking at these people, they were all big men, and none of them could take care of a woman's daily life. She was also very depressed in her heart, and was about to agree when she saw a man walking over and patted him shoulder, said: "I'll go with her, you don't know where to go."
Without thinking too much, Situ Lan nodded and walked towards the fire.
Turning his head to look over, he saw the man holding the girl's hand and coming out of the sedan chair, and the two of them walked towards the nearby woods.
In the end, only a dark forest remained.
"Why haven't you come back yet?" Yi Tian muttered, turning his head to look at the woods, he had already fallen asleep beside him, the bonfire was clearly extinguished, and finally extinguished in a gust of wind.
There was a bad premonition in my heart.
Situ Lan looked at the woods, then turned to Yi Tian and asked, "Is this woods safe?"
"How can it be safe?" Yi Tian said: "As long as it is a wooded place, monsters will appear in groups, and besides monsters, there are many bandits around here."
