Chapter 921 Masterpiece (Second Update)
The dark night shrouded the sky like a haze.
The night sky was densely covered with clouds, and the moonlight shed flecks of moonlight through the gaps in the clouds, like a dark afterimage projected on the city wall.
The city wall seemed to be built with huge stones, glowing with a faint deep purple color.
Under the silver moonlight, it looked a bit weird and scary.
Ancient cracks crisscrossed the stones, as if they were traces of time.
Lao Mo stopped and looked around for a while, looking around uneasily and with a vigilant expression.
On the city wall, at intervals, there is a small watchtower, shrouded in shadow.
On the peaked tower, it seemed as if someone was hiding in the dark, looking at the endless grassland in front of the city wall.
There was no light inside the tower, and the dark windows were open and mottled by the wind and rain of the years. It was like an entrance to another world, eerie and terrifying.
The wind on the grassland whizzed by without any obstruction, as if mixed with an unknown roar.
Old Mo covered his head and endured the severe pain and said: "My benefactor, the Shentu family is under the watchful eye of the gods... If you are not a member of the Shentu family, you must not approach their city wall... Let's go..."
There is actually a mental attack at this time...
Xia Chujian felt the stinging pain from the electric current on her wrist. She was a little surprised and raised her eyebrows.
She used a dead branch to write on the ground.
[Xia Chumei]: Is the Shentu family under the watchful eye of gods? What kind of god? Have you seen it?
Lao Mo is actually literate.
He shook his head hurriedly and said: "How can we see the gods with our own eyes?!"
"You cannot look directly at gods!"
"Not even members of the Shentu family!"
"But the Shentu family is said to be the descendants of those favored by the gods, so they can live unhindered under the gaze of the gods."
"No one else can... I heard that if someone comes within three meters of their city wall without the permission of the Shentu family, their life will be immediately taken away under the gaze of the gods, just like the forbidden forest... "
Xia Chujian narrowed her eyes.
She could feel the slight sting of electricity on her wrist, where the quantum optical brain watch carrier was.
That was a small program Huo Yushen made for her, which could detect mental attacks.
She has no feeling at all about mental attacks. Only in this way can we give her a hint to prevent her from "exposing"...
Xia Chujian raised his head and looked at the city wall with a faint deep purple light again.
It stood there quietly, but there was an indescribable power spreading around, suppressing all directions.
Xia Chujian is very familiar with this feeling!
She thought, what kind of divine gaze? !
It's probably the relics that are causing trouble again!
Most people are afraid of the spiritual attack of the relic, but she is only disgusted by the ugly appearance of the relic, which pollutes her pure little heart.
Xia Chujian raised her hand, pressed the Bianhua necklace, and switched the form of the eyepiece to become a mask covering most of her face.
Then Huo Ran jumped up from his horse, grabbed the body of Master Shentu, pulled out the crossbow arrow from his forehead, wiped it on the man, and threw it into the bamboo quiver behind him.
Xia Chujian grabbed the body of Master Shentu and looked up at the tall city wall in front of him, looking a little eager to try.
When Lao Mo saw it, he hurriedly said: "My benefactor, you must be careful!"
"The Shentu family is one of the three major families of the gods in our country!"
"It is said that his family has relics of the true god and is protected by the true god, so he can own more and more land."
"Whoever dares to disrespect them will be punished by the true God..."
It's okay if he didn't say these words, but he didn't hesitate when he said it when Xia Chu met.
She didn't speak, just curled her lips, thinking, that's just right...
She wanted to see how the so-called true god would punish her!
Xia Chujian was sure that this Shentu family was just like the blessed daughter of Dongtianyuan Kingdom, just pretending to be a ghost!
She ordered Shao Si to command the black and silver mecha, suddenly leapt from her horse, quickly flew high into the sky, and stood on the city wall.
This leap was at least six meters high.
Lao Mo's pupils suddenly tightened.
This benefactor girl is so powerful!
Just when Xia Chujian had just landed on the city wall, a shining golden corona suddenly lit up in the secret room of the head of the Shentu family.
This corona has faint rays of light that break through the shroud of the secret room and go straight into the night sky.
However, after breaking through the roof, this faint golden light quickly turned into colorless and lingered in the night sky.
Then he quickly located Xia Chujian on the city wall, quietly placed a circle around the mask on her face, and then slowly disappeared.
Xia Chujian knew nothing about this.
When she came to the city wall of Shentu's house, she didn't stay much.
Through the detection system of Shao Si Ming's mecha, she knew that a group of people, probably the guards of the Shentu family, were about to patrol over from the other side of the city wall.
Xia Chujian tore off Mr. Shentu's hunting clothes, strangled his neck, and hung him on the gate of the city wall.
This is also above the gate of the city wall.
Then he quietly jumped down from the city wall and landed on the back of the horse not far away.
Lao Mo's mouth was wide enough to fit an egg in, and he was shocked.
Xia Chujian ignored Lao Mo's shock.
She followed the same method and hung the remaining seven young masters on the main entrance of Shentu's city wall in the same way.
There are eight people in a row, which is a spectacular sight.
Xia Chujian looked up at his masterpiece, smiled slightly, rode his horse and left quickly with Lao Mo.
…
Lao Mo took Xia Chujian back to the village where they lived.
It was a small village about five miles away from Shentu's home.
Of course, the houses in the village cannot be compared with the Shentu family's house.
The low houses, under the pale moonlight, revealed a strong scene of decay and decay.
Lao Mo stopped in front of a relatively new-looking house.
There were some red banners hanging at the door of the house, indicating that there had just been a happy event here.
Lao Mo knocked on the door.
The door made of several wooden boards opened with a creak.
Xiao Mo's surprised face appeared in front of Lao Mo and Xia Chu.
Behind her followed Ate.
Lao Mo said: "Xiao Mo, let your benefactor live here. It's not convenient for me."
Xiao Mo hurriedly said: "Great! My benefactor, if you don't mind the simplicity of my house, please stay here!"
Xia Chujian shook his head, saying that he didn't dislike it.
How could she dislike it in the middle of the night, as long as she had a place to stay?
Lao Mo called Ace out alone again and said softly in the yard: "Ace, the people my benefactor just killed were all hung on the wall of Shentu's house."
Atze was shocked and said: "Really?! She really did this?!"
Lao Mo said: "I was right next to you, how could I still lie to you?"
A Ce clenched his fist and said, "Thank you, my benefactor, for helping us avenge ourselves!"
Lao Mo said: "Tomorrow morning at the latest, the Shentu family will definitely find out what happened. What are you going to do?"
A Ce said: "...will the Shentu family know who did it?"
Lao Mo said: "What do you want to do? Do you want to hand over your benefactor?"
A Ce said: "Of course not! I just thought, if it wasn't so easy to find out, could we just pretend we didn't know..."
Old Mo said: "The people who are looking for you today are all relatives of my Mo family and your family."
"The Shentu family likes to sit together. They won't tell anyone about this kind of thing. Don't worry."
A Ce nodded: "I feel reassured by all the uncles, but I am a little worried that if I encounter the Shentu family searching for the murderer again, my benefactor does not seem to be someone who can take offense..."
This is because they are worried that Xia Chujian will have another conflict with the guards of the Shentu family.
Lao Mo thought of Xia Chujian's skills and thought, this is really possible...
He has never seen a person with such great ability, who can still bear the anger of being bullied by those beasts!
Old Mo pondered and said, "Then hide her well and prevent her from confronting those from the Shentu family."
"We'll wait and see for now. If the Shentu family doesn't have a clue, we'll just pretend that nothing happened."
"If the Shentu family links this matter to you and Xiao Mo, then leave this village quickly and go to the royal city to find me."
A Ce nodded: "I understand, Abba, if the Shentu family really comes to arrest us, I will take Xiao Mo and the benefactor to the royal city to find you."
Lao Mo said a few more words before turning and leaving.
Ah Ce watched his back disappear into the night before closing the courtyard door.
At this time, in his new house, Xiao Mo was preparing a bowl of pimple soup for Xia Chujian.
Xia Chujian could tell, so she took out the best food she had and made a bowl of pimple soup for Xia Chujian.
Xiao Mo himself couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva.
This is a kind of food she only eats during the Chinese New Year. It is pure grain and will not be mixed with wild vegetables.
When Xia Chu saw that he only ate one gnocchi, he pushed the soup bowl to Xiao Mo.
Xiao Mo opened his eyes wide: "Why don't you eat it? Is it not delicious?"
Xia Chujian pointed to his stomach, made a "full" gesture, and then motioned for Xiao Mo to eat.
When she used her chopsticks, they were still brand new and had not been put into her mouth, so the remaining pimple soup was still very clean.
Xiao Mo understood what she meant and couldn't help but blush.
She didn't expect that this benefactor would be full after only eating one gnocchi...
Is it really because she doesn’t cook delicious food?
Xiao Mo couldn't help but scoop up a piece of dough with a wooden spoon, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully.
How delicious!
It's full of a strong aroma of wheat, a little salty, and a little bit of oily meat that she quietly added.
Putting these things together, it is really a rare delicacy for a girl like Xiao Mo who eats rice bran and wild vegetables all year round.
She unknowingly ate half of it and couldn't stop.
When she stopped, Ate had already come in.
He narrowed his eyes when he saw Xiao Mo eating there, but the benefactor just sat next to him and looked at Xiao Mo with a smile.
A Ce was also a little embarrassed.
But he had no choice but to let Xiao Mo eat it.
Seeing A Ce come in, Xia Chujian nodded towards him.
A Ce sat next to Xiao Mo.
Only then did Xiao Mo realize that A Ce was back, and that he had eaten more than half of the bowl of noodle soup.
She hurriedly said: "Ace, are you hungry? You should eat the remaining noodles..."
This is the second update. Let me remind you again, I have updated every day for the past four days. Although there is only one update every day, there are 5,000 words in one update!
Wow, I’m so tired of reminders.ヽ( ̄▽ ̄)
There will be a new update at 05:00 in the evening!
PS: I saw this question raised by Baozi, saying that they already have mechas, so why can’t they have space? Well, in fact, the situation of Shao Siming's black silver mecha is related to the material properties, and it is also related to room temperature superconductivity, and has nothing to do with space technology. In reality, there should be a country experimenting with a first-generation mecha, which is a big guy that is very tall but cannot freely switch shapes. The shape can be switched freely, and it belongs to the second generation mecha. Without breakthroughs in material technology and room-temperature superconductivity, the second generation of mechas would be impossible to achieve.
