We still have the mission of the God of Incense. Now that we have a chance to complete it, we might as well finish that side first and consider Garuda in the future. "Jun Aoyan directly ignored their mutual strife and analyzed seriously, "I am also anxious, but things should be done step by step and more safely. Besides, we don’t know what treasures he has. "
They discussed quietly. For some reason, Garuda ignored them for the time being, and they also did not pay much attention to him. Mingming faintly heard that Master Shenniao seemed to have ordered someone to come in. When a familiar and strange aura entered the hall, he was the first to raise his head sensitively, took one look, and immediately shouted:
"Why are you here?!"
Several people turned their heads one after another and were stunned one after another. Bai Ya suddenly drew his sword in front of the temple, and the guards stepped forward with weapons to suppress him. He raised the back of the sword, knocked back several guards with one blow, pointed the tip of the sword at him, and cursed loudly:
"You fucking dare to come out? Give your things back!"
It was clearly the guy who had tricked them the night before and took away the Yaksha amber.
"How presumptuous! In the temple, who allows you to—"
Ling Ge broke out on the spot. It is a great shame and humiliation for such a solemn place to be invaded by a group of mere humans who dare to wield swords and guns. Sure enough, they should have disarmed them when they entered the palace. She was about to draw the weapon from her waist and teach these rude people a lesson, but Garuda suddenly raised an arm and stopped her.
"you--"
"Calm down, kid. Let's see what they can do."
What made Bai Ya and the others angry the most was that Luowu glanced at them with unfamiliar eyes.
"Return? What is it? You guys have met each other, and we are in the Temple of the Bird God. Don't just frame it up." He asked nonchalantly, "What do you think this place is? What a bunch of barbarians."
"you--"
"Or are you asking for help from Lord Bird Bird and want to win sympathy by acting in public?" Lu Wuyou added fuel to the fire, taking his time and teasing their tolerance, "Or sowing dissension, okay?" Step on me and deceive Lord Bird God into trusting you?"
Bai Ya and Jun Aoyan both had red eyes and touched the handle of the knife. Seeing that the situation was not good, Qi Huan and Liu Shenghan tried their best to hold them back with gentle words. There was only one Mingming left, who was so angry that he jumped on his feet.
"You toothless reptile is talking nonsense, how can you tell lies with your eyes open!"
His shouts were also mixed with Ling Ge's sharp, angry voice. She constantly reminded several people, including Lu Wu, to pay attention to their words and deeds. Garuda, however, just watched with cold eyes and was not prepared to intervene in their dispute.
Luwu pretended not to hear. He looked at Mingming sideways, as coldly as a real spider staring at the struggling flying insects in its web.
"Everything depends on evidence. I have a clear conscience, so I can just let you have people search my body and ransack my home right here in this palace. If you really have any lost property, I'll kill you or hack it into pieces, please do as you please. And what about you? Four lowly humans, and the most despicable half-demon. If you want to climb up, don't be so ugly. The rule here is that the weak eat the strong, not tricks and slanderous plots. You burned down my house. I didn't even ask you to accuse me of the incident at Di..." He whispered softly.
"enough."
Finally, on the verge of another round of yelling and scolding, Garuda said solemnly.
The voice was not loud, but somehow it reached everyone's mind clearly, causing them to stop talking immediately. The bird god's fingers tapped lightly on the throne, and he first asked Bai Ya:
"It is rumored that you have obtained Poseidon's treasure. I know it. Now you are saying that the thing is in Luowu's hands?"
Bai Ya nodded and added: "He designed us, took away the amber, and almost killed us."
Master Shenniao was noncommittal and turned his gaze to Lianwu.
"What about you, you couldn't fight these humans, couldn't stop them, and instead your mansion was burned down?"
There is something wrong with these words.
They didn't have time to think about it, but Liuwu already responded happily: "It is indeed true. It was my dereliction of duty that allowed them to enter the Holy Land and make trouble in your palace."
Yes, you co-authored it together?
At this time, this sentence was buzzing in everyone's mind. This makes people a little desperate, and the words of the Lord Bird, who had been so kind and friendly just now, also seemed cold: "I think this matter is confirmed. As for the handling, we will wait until the so-called treasure grabbing matter is investigated clearly. Okay, how about this? Guests, please leave first. I will naturally send someone to contact you when the results are known."
"No, you don't want us to leave before the matter is found out?" Qi Huan's eyes turned dark.
"The visitor is a guest, and it is not appropriate to get involved in my demon clan's family affairs." Garuda stood up, his tone became tough, he clapped his hands and said loudly, "Come, let's see off the guests!"
The bird-headed guards gathered around silently, their unkind eyes and the weapons in their hands made the choice clear: Either be more decent and be escorted out; or be ugly and be escorted out.
The results are the same, so it’s better to choose the former. It's just that they felt somewhat unwilling to give up. In the end, they were frustrated again and left in despair.
Surrounded by the harpies, they gradually walked away.
In the main hall, Luwu and Garuda watched them off together until they could no longer see their shadows. He glanced at the expressionless Garuda covertly, made a mental assessment, and lowered his head without saying a word. Soon, Lingge returned to the hall and respectfully saluted his god.
"Tell me, sir, they have entered the spiritual veins. I saw it with my own eyes."
"Very good...these rules cannot be messed up. Just go ahead."
He waved his hand and winked briefly. The kind-hearted Garuda who had just met him had a straight face at this time, and he was completely different from the other two. He looked at the direction in which the people were leaving, his sinister eyes leaving no room for doubt. No one can disobey his orders, no one can trample on his laws, no one can disturb his order - no one can. There is no contradiction between being nice to you one moment and doing things according to the rules the next. A sense of arrogance like a hidden needle once again occupied the high ground, with strong contrast and separation. No matter how many times Ling Ge witnessed it, he still felt a strange chill.
She understood with her heart and retreated from the hall. Needless to say, no one can survive anything that threatens the rule of Lord Divine Bird.
A sinister smile slipped out of the corners of Luwu's lips. The smile quickly disappeared. As Ling Ge's footsteps moved away, he raised his head and complimented in a long voice: "Decisive in killing, clear in discipline, and worthy of being respected by all demons, Lord Garuda."
Lord Divine Bird finally looked at him. His expression was still gloomy, no longer the gentle and generous look before.
"Lian Wu." He said solemnly, "You should know that Garuda's eyesight is sharp. No matter how high it flies, it can still clearly see the insects on the ground and see through the imperfect webs of spiders. Your thoughts are not One day or two, don’t act like others know nothing.”
Luwu just smiled and didn't reply.
"Where are we going?"
I didn’t know how long I had been standing in the spiritual channel before someone finally asked.
They were all startled and took a moment to react. It was Aoyan who was speaking, and Liu Shenghan, who was questioned by her, paused for a moment, then woke up as if from a dream, and turned to Bai Ya: "Then, shall we go?"
Bai Ya reflexively wanted to refute something, opened his mouth, and then closed it again. He had no other choice. If you insist on staying, I wonder if you can get the amber back. Once you fall out, you will definitely lose the chance of being recognized by the Bird God forever. Moreover, there are those Wuxiaying. The Bird God did not tell the exact expiration date of the Ruyi Pearl. He only said that it was based on their journey back to Xiangji Kingdom. What if? If I miss it and don't get back in time, what's the point of this trip?
The amber has been lost, and there is no hope of proving the seal. The God of Fragrance has three tasks. If he can't complete any of them... Although it is just a return to the starting point, the feeling is much more unbearable than when he first arrived before everything started.
Finally, he shook his head, showing rare disappointment.
"Let's go. Where else can we go."
Unfortunately, one wave comes after another. Liu Shenghan thought about it again and again, and told him the bad news: when she came, she felt that the spiritual veins in this area seemed to be incompatible with the outside world. Along the way, it seemed to form a closed loop around the Bird Temple. It is very likely that no matter how they move through it, they will just wander in the territory of the bird god and cannot get out of the vast mountains.
This is undoubtedly another big blow. Before they could cast their hopeful eyes on the native Mingming, the child had already jumped up: "Look what I'm doing! I'm following you too. Why, can't I get out too? It's over, I haven't seen this. However, I don’t even know how to get back to the village—and who wants to go back?”
"I don't even think about going back. Now I really think even your village is cute." Qi Huan rolled his eyes weakly.
Jun Aoyan also showed depression.
"In other words, even if you leave... is it all a luxury?"
"It's not an extravagant hope." Liu Shenghan reassured, "Let's go and see. Maybe, after we get out of the spiritual veins, we can reach the edge of the territory. If we want to go out again, find the way we came, and look for that piece of land again. Wuxiaying and returning to Xiangji Country will also be much easier."
This is not a big relief, but at least they have found a goal that can be implemented immediately, and although it is laborious, it is not tiring. The adults were all somewhat listless, walking silently behind Liu Shenghan, like corpses being driven by corpse drivers. Only Mingming still had the energy to touch and look around curiously, commenting on something from time to time, in exchange for a few mechanical echoes from Qi Huan.
I didn't know how long I had walked, but I felt that I was far enough away from the Bird Temple. Liu Shenghan hesitated in her steps. Finally, after some groping, she stood still and confirmed to everyone: "When you go out from here, you should be far away from the core of the Bird God's territory. However, I am not sure. What place is it? We may not be able to find a direct way back to Xiangji Country, or to the area where the Bird God lives again."
"Go out, we've come all the way here." Bai Ya patted her shoulder, "Thank you for your hard work."
Liu Shenghan smiled dryly: "It's rare for you to praise someone, so it's not a loss."
After the scenery changed, they appeared in a wilderness. The first impression of this desolation on Qi Huan made him think that they had left the mountainous area. As a result, when I looked up, I saw that the surrounding mountains were still scattered with high and low peaks. Fortunately, Liu Shenghan had already warned them, so no one could say they were too disappointed. They muttered a few words and then each looked around, hoping to determine their location so they could find a way out.
