When Yu Hu returned to his horse, Ban Lu came over and said, "Boss, I also want to ride in the car."
"Shut up." Yu Hu shouted.
Most of the confusion in Ban Lu's eyes was suppressed.
Yu Hu said coldly: "Without the magic weapon, you don't even have basic vigilance? Why didn't I see you like riding in carriages in the past?"
Ban Lu was enlightened, and the last bit of obsession was suppressed by vigilance. Looking at the alluring treasure car no longer felt good.
She lowered her voice and asked quietly, "Is there something weird about this car?"
To attract wealth and treasure, the twins are close together.
Yu Hu took a deep breath and said, "There is a wooden figure sitting inside. I don't know if it is strange or strange."
The expressions of the three people changed, and Ban Lu said angrily: "I just said that the businessman must be weird if he is too enthusiastic. I'm afraid he is using us as a shield. Let's see if I don't take them down."
Yu Hu pulled her back and reprimanded: "When will you change your bluffing temperament?"
Ban Lu said unwillingly: "Then let them plot against us like this?"
Yu Hu's eyes flashed with a fierce light, "Of course I won't let it go like this, but the adult had shouted to stop when he saw the caravan earlier, for fear that he had some plans. Teach these mediocre people a lesson, and ruin the adult's plans. big."
Thinking of Mi August's unpredictable methods, Ban Lu felt pain again from the burn on his face that had not healed yet. He nodded obediently and muttered: "Then we will settle the accounts with them after the adults' affairs are finished."
After the discussion here, in the carriage at the other end, the businessman was also arguing with his wife.
The businessman's name is Du Yuanda, his wife is Li, and there is a cardamom girl who is about twelve or thirteen years old, their daughter Du Xiaomei.
Mrs. Li looked uneasy and kept mumbling since she returned to the carriage.
"The girl just barely had haircuts, and she looked like she had never been out before. She didn't understand the dangers of the world. The child next to her was even smaller, so thin, and he was probably the poor one saved by the little girl. "
"Okay." Du Yuanda was irritated by the reading, and his expression and tone were completely different from the kind and enthusiastic expression in front of Yu Hu and others, "It's going to be night soon, and they won't go up, just in case the man-eating demon car wants to eat him this time. It’s women, and now you and Xiaomei are the only women on the team, should you go or let Xiaomei go?”
Hearing her name, Du Xiaomei hugged Ms. Li's arm tightly, trembling with fear, "I won't go, I don't want to be eaten, mother, I'm afraid!"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Mrs. Li comforted her little daughter, her pale face showing unbearable struggle, which gradually turned into silent compromise.
"Hmph." Du Yuan's eyes were sinister and he cursed: "I didn't expect to meet Mr. Wen, but there is nothing I can do about it now. Let's see how lucky this Mr. Wen is. This demon car is going to eat men tonight. It’s still a woman, if it’s a man eating him again, he’s still the same child.”
Mi Feixue has shoulder-length short hair and a thin appearance. Outsiders would easily mistake her for a boy at first sight, and Du Yuanda is no exception.
"If he is eaten, we will put the responsibility on the people in Si Ye Mansion. I have tried my best to stop it, and I kindly asked the doctor to treat Mr. Wen. It was only the people in Si Ye Mansion who stopped him that caused Mr. Wen to die of illness on the way. Do you all remember it?" Du Yuanda asked his wife and children.
Li asked softly: "What if the night messengers cause trouble for us?"
Du Yuanda sneered, "They are just a bunch of lackeys barking at night. It is their duty to eliminate demons and protect the road. The disaster we encountered on the official road this time was due to their dereliction of duty. When we get to Beiyuan City, I will go to Fu Yin to consult." Give them a copy, so they can’t eat it and carry it around.”
Du Xiaomei said: "Dad is still great."
Du Yuanda smiled proudly.
In the treasure car.
Satin soft pillows, sandalwood small table.
The incense of the stove is faint, and the smell of tea is overflowing.
The space inside is much wider than it looks from the outside.
Mi August leaned on a soft pillow and read a book, while Mi Feixue sat beside her and also read attentively.
On the ground, the young man in brocade clothes with a bruised nose and swollen face lay limp, still unconscious.
There is a puppet sitting cross-legged in front of the sandalwood table. She is dressed in a light green maid's uniform and has her hair combed into a maid's temples. From the back, she looks just like a real person.
Click.
The puppet maid was making tea when she suddenly turned to face Mi August.
Its body posture below the neck has not changed at all, and its head alone faces sideways in a position that is simply impossible for humans.
“Where do guests come from and where are they going?”
What is completely different from the puppet's smiling face is that the sound it makes is sinister and harsh, as dry and hoarse as a saw blade sawing wood.
According to the puppeteer's consistent experience, the guests will be startled at this time, with frightened faces on their faces.
The puppet man's smile deepened.
"Come from hell and go to the world." Mi August raised his eyes and responded with a polite smile.
puppet:"……"
It stared at Mi August, as if it wanted to penetrate her face.
Mi August asked kindly: "Are your eyes uncomfortable?"
The puppet man, who had a bad start, had a gloomy expression, his eyes turned to the left, and he attacked Mi Feixue, "Where is this guest?"
Mi Feixue said nothing.
Ten seconds later.
Puppet Man: "Guest?"
Mi August said: "The baby's throat is uncomfortable and he can't speak for the time being."
Puppet Man: "..." Why didn't you tell me earlier! ?
The puppet man, who had become increasingly angry, lost all patience with the last prey in the car.
"Last guest, how about you?"
The gloom came out of every word.
"Guest?" The puppet's upper body leaned out of the table, and its head was close to Wen Qingyu's ear. "Guest, don't pretend to be asleep. If you don't tell the destination, I will lead you the wrong way."
Wen Qingyu, who was pretending to be dead, was told by the voice in his ear. The harsh voice tortured his ears, like a saw rubbing in his brain.
I had no choice but to open my eyes, and saw a sinister face of a puppet. The puppet's red bloodshot eyes rolled around and fell out of it.
"ah--"
Caught off guard, Wen Qingyu's heart trembled and she blurted out a scream.
The puppet man chuckled, and his eyes on the ground bounced up and down happily as if infected by his emotions.
Wen Qingyu suddenly felt his legs sinking. He turned his head to look, and what he saw made his eyes wide open.
The wooden planks of the carriage under his feet turned into a quagmire, and his legs sank there. He couldn't see what greasy things were licking his legs in the quagmire underneath, making Wen Qingyu's scalp numb with every stroke. , covered with chicken skin.
"Save me!" At this time, Wen Qingyu couldn't care about anything else and asked Mi August for help. "I am a direct descendant of the Wen family of Kaiyun Shipping Merchant. If you save me, you can get ten thousand gold!"
Seeing that Mi August was unmoved, the young man was frightened and angry. Then he looked pitiful and said in an extremely sincere and well-behaved tone, "I know you don't despise this worldly thing. I have spiritual crystals in my home. As long as you save me, what do you want?" I offer them all. If you don’t believe me, please look at the ring on my hand. It originally had a spiritual crystal embedded in it. Although it has been used, the spiritual energy still remains, which you can appreciate."
Mi August's eyes fell on Wen Qingyu's fingers, who was full of hope.
"It turns out that I still have this backup plan." She whispered, her eyes neither happy nor sad.
