Lai Aotian may be greedy for profit and wants to single-handedly control the entire Lai tribe and become the new leader.
In order to achieve his hegemony, sacrificing the lives of dozens or twenty of his own kind was nothing more than an insignificant detail.
But if the entire Lai clan died because of this, then what's the use of him becoming the clan leader.
Now Lai Aotian has lost a wife and a daughter. If he loses his power again, he will really have nothing left. The consequences may be more painful than killing him.
thump……!
After thinking for a moment, Lai Aotian turned from sitting to kneeling and knelt directly in front of Sai Qingfeng.
"Mr. Sai, I, Lai Aotian, have offended many times before. I ask Mr. Sai not to care about it. I implore Mr. Sai to save my whole Lai clan. I, Lai Aotian, will definitely remember it in my heart and be grateful!"
Sai Qingfeng didn't speak, just smiled slightly, and then glanced at our location.
Lai Aotian naturally understood the meaning expressed in Sai Qingfeng's eyes, and immediately spoke to a group of Lai guards who were dumbfounded on the side: "What are you still doing? Let me release them all!"
It seemed that Lai Aotian had really put aside his past grudges. Not only did he loosen our bonds, but he also returned the dragon-detecting claws and black dragon spears that Gouzi and I had to their original owners.
Even Lai Aju also affectionately called Lai Aotian Elder Aotian, but I still couldn't have any good impression of Lai Aotian.
Good people are good people, and evil people are evil people. When Lai Aotian slashed me with the knife, I decided that he was a narrow-minded and despicable person.
I don't believe that he will change his mind because of this. Maybe there is a more sinister plot hidden in his heart.
I didn't make it clear because the so-called reconciliation and the so-called united front had already been reached. Even if I questioned him, he would have all kinds of explanations waiting for me.
So at the moment I don't bother to waste my time anymore, just take a step and see if it goes as I think, sooner or later this old guy will show his fox tail.
The blood-red light on the surface of the pit was still vaguely visible at first, but now it has completely disappeared.
Looking at the nine paper figures standing around the little girl gave me an inexplicable feeling.
It was as if the nine paper figures were not suppressing, but protecting.
Looking at the little girl lying in the pit as if she was asleep, I looked at Sai Qingfeng beside me with confusion, "Mr. Sai, is this little girl... still alive?"
As soon as I said this, everyone looked at me with fear on their faces, especially Lai Aotian, who exclaimed, "What, what did you say, my daughter is not dead, is she still alive?"
"I'm just guessing about this."
I responded, and then my eyes stopped on Sai Qingfeng's face again, waiting for his answer.
"Mr. Sai, is my daughter still alive?"
Lai Aotian asked emotionally.
Sai Qingfeng nodded silently after hearing this, and then said: "This young man is right. This child is indeed not dead, but it is almost as good as dead."
"Mr. Sai, what do you mean by not dead? It's almost like death. Is my daughter still alive?"
Sai Qingfeng raised his hand and signaled Lai Aotian not to worry, "The pure yin life body is originally dominated by yin energy and yang energy is weak. Now that something strange has entered the body, the yang energy has been almost eaten away, but I see that there is still a trace of it in the body. The hairspring is still there, as long as the strange resurgence can be stopped in time, it may be possible to survive."
"Really...really...!"
When he heard that his daughter was not dead and might still live, he was extremely excited. He grabbed Sai Qingfeng's hand and begged: "Mr. Sai, tell me what you need me to do, as long as I can save her." My daughter, you can do whatever you want me to do!"
Sai Qingfeng smiled and nodded, then raised his hand and pointed at the densely packed hanging coffins hanging on the surrounding cliffs, "Are the dead people of your clan among these hanging coffins?"
"Yes, that's right. It has been the rule of our Lai tribe for thousands of years that all the deceased members of the tribe are buried in the grave." Lai Aju replied.
"Are they all here?" Sai Qingfeng suddenly asked again.
"Yes, yes, they are all here, what's wrong?"
After hearing Lai'aju's answer, Sai Qingfeng smiled slightly, squinted at Lai'aju and said, "Since we are all here, can you tell me where your deceased grandma is hanging?"
"This...I'm not very clear about it. Even the news of grandma's death was told to me by Lebo!"
As she said this, Lai Aju looked at Lai Aotian, wanting him to help point out the location where grandma was buried.
Lai Aotian paused for a moment, then slowly raised his hand, but soon put it down again. He looked at Sai Qingfeng and said, "Mr. Sai is indeed an expert. If he can ask such a question, I think Sai must Sir, you also know about the forbidden land of the Lai tribe. Yes, the chiefs and priests of the Lai tribe have been buried in the forbidden land since ancient times. As the previous chief of the tribe, grandma is naturally buried there."
"Forbidden area? What forbidden area? Why have I never heard grandma mention it?" Lai Aju asked with a confused look on his face.
Lai Aotian straightened up at this time, showed a arrogant look and said: "It's said to be a forbidden area, so the average tribesman doesn't know its existence at all, only elders like me and above You have the right to know the location of the forbidden areas.”
You are right. Since it is a forbidden area, of course the fewer people know about it, the better. If everyone in the clan knows about it, then it is not a so-called forbidden area. I guarantee that some people will enter casually. .
However, when these words came out of Lai Aotian's mouth, I couldn't help but feel disgusted. I thought to myself, when is this time? The whole clan is facing the danger of annihilation. It would be unavoidable to pretend to be a leader at this time. You think of yourself too much.
"Oh, I see."
Lai Aju then turned to Sai Qingfeng and asked Sai Qingfeng, "Mr. Sai, why do you suddenly ask me where my grandma is buried?"
"To be honest, weirdness appeared on the ground, so I concluded that the weird body is under our feet, and your Lai tribe advocates hanging burials, and you will not bury the dead under the soil, so I concluded that there is There is a cave in the sky, which should be where the forbidden area is."
"So, the weirdness is in the forbidden area!"
Lai Aotian was silent for a moment, and finally said with determination: "Okay, Mr. Sai, I will take you to the forbidden area. In order to save the lives of the entire clan, I, Lai Aotian, will bear the charge of violating clan rules!"
So, under the leadership of Lai Aotian, a few of us followed him towards the deepest part of the canyon.
Of course, except for a few of us, there was no one more person with us. The guards from the Lai tribe were all left at the altar. The reason was that the paper formation needed to be guarded and not allowed to be touched by outsiders, otherwise all the previous efforts would be wasted.
After passing through a thin wooden house, we walked into a green bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest is dense and tall, and there is even a little mist floating in the depths, just like a fairyland.
After walking through the bamboo forest for a long time, a cliff suddenly appeared in front of me. At the bottom of the cliff was a huge cave, extending downward at a 45-degree angle.
It's dark and empty, and I don't know how big it is inside, nor what kind of scene it looks like inside.
There are piles of white bones piled up in front of the cave. The white bones seem to be the bones of an animal, or they were placed here as sacrifices and formed after being exposed to the wind and sun for a long time.
"This is the forbidden land of our Lai tribe."
Looking at the huge cave in front of him, Lai Aotian said.
"Then what are you waiting for? Come in quickly."
The slow pace along the way made Liu Tingting's impatience seem a little impatient. After saying something, she pulled me towards the entrance of the cave.
But just as he took a step forward, and before he had taken a few steps, a loud shout came from the cave.
"Who dares to trespass into the forbidden territory of our Lai tribe!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a tall figure walked out of the cave.
The man was naked to the waist, holding a metal whistle stick more than ten feet long, and had a fierce look on his face.
This person seemed to be half a head taller than me, at least two meters tall. Looking at his strong demeanor, if it weren't for the beard on his face, I would have thought this was the real-life version of Walker Wu Song.
