Miao Rui's words hit the hearts of all the Snow Valley villagers like a heavy hammer. Everyone looked ashamed. Even Miao's father and mother did not dare to look at their daughter.
It's not that they forgot the fact that Li Mu saved the entire village, it's just that as ordinary people, they would instinctively choose to escape when faced with death. After all, moral condemnation is nothing compared to losing one's life.
"Okay, okay, you go, I'll go find Brother Li by myself."
Miao Rui's heart sank to the bottom completely. The villagers and parents in front of her seemed so strange. The usual enthusiasm and tenderness disappeared, leaving only the indifference and selfishness of self-preservation.
"What should we do? I remember that the building owner's order was to bring all the guides back to the building. No one should be left behind. Now that this girl refuses to leave, isn't our mission not completed?"
The stalemate between Miao Rui and the villagers gave Hongye and Bi'an a headache. They had watched the villagers who stayed in Snow Valley die tragically, which had put their mission on the verge of failure.
But because of the presence of the King of Hundred Snakes, they were powerless. However, the situation is different now. If they cannot take Miao Rui out together, it will bring irreparable flaws to the rescue mission, even if Xiao Yiqin does not pursue it. , Hongye and Hiangan themselves couldn't accept it.
"Why don't we knock her unconscious and carry her out by force?"
"Is she so violent? What if she resists desperately?"
"That's not true. Would anyone risk their own life for a stinky man?"
"Hey, hey, calm down and don't put the knife to your neck."
Hongye and Bi'an were discussing whether to use unconventional means to take Miao Rui away, but they saw Xiaonizi resolutely took out a small dagger and put it on her neck.
There was no doubt about the firmness in her eyes. Miao Rui had already made her final decision. There was only one condition for her to give up Li Mu and escape alone today, and that was death.
"Okay, okay, sister knows, we will find a way to support your brother Li, you put the knife down first."
Seeing that the sharp dagger had already pressed a bloody mark on Miao Rui's neck, Hong Ye also quickly "raised his hands in surrender", and Bian An also patted his chest to make a promise, and then Xiao Nizi slowly put down the sharp blade in his hand.
Looking at Miao Rui, who was trembling with fear, Hongye and Bi'an looked at each other helplessly and smiled bitterly, but they were both people who kept their word and would not cheat in order to complete the task.
"What should I do? That Hundred Snakes King has perfect strength in the Tribulation Realm. There is no chance of him relying on the two of us. If he goes there, he will be killed."
After arranging for the villagers of Snow Valley to move on, Hongye and Bi'an also discussed how to fulfill the promise just now, while Miao Rui stayed close, staring at the two of them with a pair of big eyes.
"What else can we do? Just shake people. I remember that Lord Zimo should be not far away. How about you contact us? See if you can come and support us."
Bian'an scratched his head and made a very feasible suggestion. After all, the strength of the Hundred Snakes King was too terrifying, and those who could fight him should at least be at the level of the four major lords in Tingxue Tower.
"Why don't you contact me? The last mission in Rongcheng troubled Lord Huangquan, and I was scolded by Sister Chi when I got back. This time I don't want to do it, and I want to fuck you. Lord Zimo usually likes you the most anyway."
Hongye rolled her eyes. She strongly resisted Higan's behavior of "only commanding, not doing work", and she was the one who waved the person last time. This time, someone else had to do it.
"Nonsense, don't listen to what those people in the building are talking about. Lord Zimo has also done some research on spiritual patterns, so he often gives me guidance."
Bi'an waved his hands to refute the rumors frantically, but one was a beautiful lord with a gentle temperament and strong strength, and the other was a super star in the building who was young, handsome, and infinitely talented. It was normal for this combination to spread some gossip.
"What are you feeling guilty about? I didn't say it was that kind of like. I advise you to hurry up. If you don't sway me, my sister's brother Li may not be able to handle it anymore."
red leaves
He and Bian were bickering every day, while Miao Rui looked at the two of them helplessly. Seeing that there was still no movement, he put the dagger in his hand on his neck again.
"Okay, okay, my Aunt Di, please don't bring the knife so close. Can't you just call someone right now?"
Bian finally chose to compromise. He really couldn't do anything to Miao Rui and Hongye.
A resentful expression was written on his face, and then he slowly took out a crystal clear jade plaque from his arms.
At the level of Hongye and the other side, long-distance communication through magic weapons has become a common thing. Unlike when Li Mu first saw Yun Li'er take out a communication bronze mirror in Yunlan Sect, he was shocked. .
Bian'an input a trace of heaven and earth energy into the jade tablet, and soon a light flashed, and a small text was automatically generated, and then disappeared with a "whoosh".
"Okay, I have sent the situation to Lord Zimo, and now I am waiting for the reply. Based on my understanding of the Lord, as long as she does not have something very important at hand, she will definitely come to help."
After sending the "text message", the other side also breathed a sigh of relief, so it is often the hardest when some words are left unsaid. As long as they are said out loud, it is actually not that unacceptable.
"Sister, we have done everything we can, can you come with us now? Don't worry, as long as Lord Zimo can pass, your brother Li will definitely not die today."
Hong Ye put her hands on her hips and looked at Miao Rui helplessly. Even for super rising stars like her and Bian An, who are Tingxue Tower, it is extremely difficult to mobilize a lord to come for reinforcements. They will be questioned and questioned a lot afterwards. Questioning without justifiable reasons will also result in punishment.
"Yeah, thank you, sister, thank you, brother. Let's go quickly. These men in black robes are very scary. It will be tragic if they are caught."
Having achieved her goal, Miao Rui was no longer worried, jogged back to the team, greeted the villagers and continued along the tunnel.
"Why do I feel like we were deceived by this girl? Was her determination just now an act?"
"I feel the same way. Isn't it true that the people who lead the way are unsophisticated and have simple folk customs? How can they be smarter than us?"
Seeing Miao Rui's jumping back, both Hongye and Bi'an had the illusion that it was not the two of them who were in charge of the overall situation because of their high cultivation, but this innocent-looking village girl.
At the same time, the communication jade plate lit up again, and only two words slowly appeared on it.
"receive."
