Liu Ruxiang led me quickly to catch up with her flashlight.
Immediately, they discovered that in the simple camp, a man fell unconscious beside the extinguished firewood pile, while the other Fang Xiaomei was nowhere to be seen.
"Brothers of the Meng family, wake up!" Liu Ruxiang shouted, squatting down and stretching out her fingers. I don't know which acupoint she pinched with her fingertips, and Meng Laoer's body immediately twitched.
"Uh-ah-"
Meng Laoer turned around and lay straight on the ground, looking as angry as a gossamer, with a wisp of bright red blood coming out of the corner of his mouth.
"What's wrong? How is your health?" Liu Ruxiang asked next, then grabbed Meng Laoer's hand and quietly felt his pulse.
After a long time, she breathed a sigh of relief and put down her hand.
Meng Laoer slowly recovered, but his face was still pale. He coughed violently a few times, spat out a mouthful of bloody sputum, and opened his mouth and said: "Yes... there is a monster. After you left, there was a short, hairy man." A monster that looked like an old man was approaching, and I was so scared that I threw a torch at it, but he caught it easily, then grabbed Fang Xiaomei's arm and tried to drag her away."
"How dare I? I rushed up to get a knife to chop, but before I could see clearly, a heavy slap hit me on the stomach. I fell to the ground and felt that all the bones in my body were falling apart. I almost thought I was dead. died."
Meng Laoer spoke very hard, and after saying these words, he gasped for air.
"Master, good master, where is my wife? Please help me find her, please!"
Meng Laoer stood up and knelt down to kowtow. However, as soon as he straightened his body, he fell to the ground because he had no strength.
Liu Ruxiang did not help her, looked around and said, "I promise to help you save your wife, and I will do my best. This is the reputation and signature of my Liu family's team. Either you don't take the job, or if you take the job, you will do your best."
"Thank you, Master."
Liu Ruxiang checked the surrounding environment at this time and roughly made a judgment on the attack just now.
"First of all, there is definitely more than one mandrill in this mountain. One of them first dressed up as Li Laodan, who often went up the mountain to collect herbs, and deliberately exposed the flaws of the herbs for us to see, so that I could go down the mountain to support, so that I could kidnap Fang Xiaomei. And if we don't fall into the trap, after we deal with this little brat, our resistance will be even less powerful."
The cook clenched the dagger in her hand: "This beast has a good brain and knows how to cooperate with each other. Otherwise, even if the two of them go together, I won't let it. Now we have lost the initiative, and we have to think tonight I'm afraid it will be difficult to snatch Fang Xiaomei back."
Liu Ruxiang bit her lip, looking very heartbroken. She took out a pill wrapped in oil paper from her pocket and handed it to the Meng brothers for him to take.
"This is the Heshang Pill inherited from my Liu family. The process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is difficult for nobles to get even one pill. Now I ask you to take it. It will stop bleeding and relieve pain immediately."
Meng Laoer nodded and kept saying thank you.
"The mandrill didn't kill you at the beginning, and he won't waste any energy on dealing with you in the future. After a short rest, you go down the mountain, and go to Liujia Village as soon as possible to call for help. Let the fifth and seventh masters of the Liu family come up to the mountain to help."
The Meng brothers nodded, swallowed the elixir with saliva.
He probably doesn't understand, but I do. Liu Ruxiang mentioned to me before that there are nine "masters" in the Liu family. Each one of them is a master with high magical powers and specializes in different spells. They are the most important person in the family to hold large-scale rituals. Each of them leads a master team, and when all the masters gather together, they form a top-notch master team.
Meng Laoer sat next to him and continued to rest, while Liu Ruxiang picked up the cloth shoes that Fang Xiaomei had knocked off during the struggle from the edge of the fire, saying that it was a coincidence that having shoes would make it easier to find people. Tell me to look carefully and remember. This time she is going to use a special spell to find people, called "stepping on small shoes". She can find people step by step according to the route they have taken, and finally find where they are now. .
I was also very interested in this, my mind was spinning rapidly, and I immediately thought: "This spell is so powerful at finding people, can you help me find my grandma?"
Liu Ruxiang rolled her eyes at me: "It's just a small magic. You can only find people in a small area. Your grandma has already returned to Huashan, leaving only one body that has been taken over by the snake fairy. This method is useless. If you don't give up, I will teach you in a while." You, try it yourself.”
"Moreover, if people take a car or a plane, this method will fail."
After the cook finished explaining, he took out the incense, red rope, and yellow paper from the box. He first placed Fang Xiaomei's cloth shoes under Liu Ruxiang's soles with the soles of the feet facing each other, and then tied the feet and shoes tightly with the red rope. , the right foot appeared to be wearing one shoe and stepping on the other.
Fortunately, Fang Xiaomei's shoes are flat cloth shoes, which are comfortable to step on. But what about those fashionable high-heeled shoes?
But Liu Ruxiang didn't need to think about this issue now. After tying her shoes, she lit a stick of incense and muttered: "The five internal organs are happy, the five bodies are diligent, the five senses are smooth, and the five senses are harmonious. Nian Fang Xiaotao Village, Daliang Township Xiaomei’s girl’s name, Wan Wang feels it…”
Liu Ruxiang sang a long section, closed her eyes, put a piece of yellow paper on the ground in front of her, stretched out her right foot with the shoe tied on it, stepped on it, twisted her ankle repeatedly, and then fixed the toe of the shoe in the southeast direction.
Liu Ruxiang opened her eyes, raised her feet and walked straight in this direction.
"You little bastard, catch up."
I followed him in a panic and saw Meng Laoer limping down the mountain.
I believe that reinforcements from the Liu family will arrive soon. I no longer felt as worried as I did just now.
Liu Ruxiang was walking in the forest, as if she was going halfway up the mountain. Every twenty or thirty steps she would close her eyes again, put yellow paper on the soles of her feet, and recite mantras to adjust her direction.
It took almost an hour, but Liu Ruxiang finally said that the distance was close.
At this time, we have come to a dense forest. The grass is covered with wild jujube trees that are half a man tall. They have so many thorns that my trousers were scratched without paying attention, and my thighs were also pricked. It was really bad. Extremely unlucky.
While complaining in his heart, Liu Ruxiang quickly pointed forward with a flashlight and said, "Look at Wenshan, there is a large open space not far away. There are some problems."
After the two of us passed through, Liu Ruxiang immediately made a new discovery.
"Look, this is a cave, just big enough for a normal person to bend down and go in."
Liu Ruxiang stopped and threw a piece of yellow paper to re-read the direction. The tip of her shoe was pointing right at this dark and bottomless cave!
