Chapter 865 Play Along and Find the Children
“Where is this?”
“From the ancient tomb to here, we walked for a total of about two hours. We were all on foot. We climbed a section of the mountain, and took a detour of nearly eight intersections. I guess we should be in some deep mountain.”
Yan Kuan told Shen Xiaoxiao all the routes he had memorized along the way. When Shen Xiaoxiao heard Yan Kuan’s words, she smiled slightly and said, “I knew you wouldn’t be drugged so easily, but I didn’t expect you to remember the routes. I was already very careful, but I still inhaled some knockout drugs.”
“It’s not difficult to remember these things. Let’s go now.”
“Go? To save the secret guards?”
“No, just the two of us. The secret guards will be fine. We’ll go find the children. The children should be here too. Did you forget the watch that Shen Guoan took out? That’s Little Treasure’s.”
“Where’s your backpack? Did they take the eight trigrams wheel?”
Yan Kuan looked at Shen Xiaoxiao’s puzzled look and reached out to fix her hair. He smiled indifferently and said, “I did it on purpose. This eight trigram wheel is useless. To be effective, it needs those gemstone balls. Do you remember the blue gemstone ball? I guess we need to gather at least four gemstone balls before we can activate this eight trigrams wheel. We have one, Lin Jiahui has one, and there are two more.”
“Even if the eight trigrams wheel was taken by the old man, it is useless for him to take it. Besides, he took our bags, which contained the Black Ganoderma. Perhaps Lin Jiahui couldn’t wait to refine the antidote for the Suoyin Flower Tears. When the time comes, we only need to profit from it. We don’t need to waste so much effort and brain cells.”
“You’re really shameless to the extreme, but I like it.”
“You little thing!”
“But why didn’t your gemstone ball get taken
away?”
“If I want to hide something, it won’t be any worse than where you hid it, and it won’t be any more bloody than where you hid it.”
Shen Xiaoxiao naturally knew that Yan Kuan was talking about her action of hiding the Ghost Axe in her throat. She was really curious about the big gemstone ball. Where exactly did Yan Kuan hide it?
However, Yan Kuan was obviously keeping her in suspense. He would definitely not tell her easily, so she just pursed her lips and did not ask anything in the end.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the bamboo house where they were imprisoned. It was very elegant. The most important thing was that there was no electric light in the house. There was only a kerosene lamp placed on the bamboo table at the side. This place was very strange.
“What is this place? There isn’t even an electric light?”
“It’s good that there isn’t one. If there isn’t one, it’s even more impossible for them to find us. Let’s go.”
There were naturally guards outside the door. Yan Kuan and Shen Xiaoxiao could easily deal with these two guards. Even though they were holding submachine guns their hands, they were just decorations in front of them.
However, just as the two of them were about to make a move, they heard the two guards speak:
“Where do you think this evil children have gone? The people down there have gone crazy looking for them. These two little kids are actually able to avoid the sight of so many people.”
“That’s right. The clan leader said that when the evil children descends, our king will be in danger. We must find the evil children and sacrifice them to the gods. Didn’t you see? When the clan leader came out from the prophet’s place, his face was deathly pale.”
“But where did the evil children go?”
“Who knows? Ah Gen’s family is really bold. They actually dared to take in the evil children. Now that they are implicated, they will definitely be severely whipped tomorrow. Anyone who is whipped cannot be treated by a doctor. I’m afraid that the father and daughter’s lives will be forfeited here.”
“Alright, stop talking. Don’t forget, we can’t talk about this. If we are caught, the ones who will be whipped will be you and me. But this black box is really heavy. Why are we carrying this thing?”
“If they tell you to carry it, just do it. Someone will come to change shifts in a while. Be careful. Although those knockout drugs fool them for a day, these outsiders who trespass here will be sacrificed, so we can’t let our guard down.”
The two guards’ words were clearly heard by them. It was precisely because they heard it clearly that the two of them immediately knew that the so-called evil children were their two children. However, the two children really ran out… This made the two overjoyed.
They looted all the things that could be used on the two of them, and then looked at the house next to them, but there was no sign of the secret guards. Shen Guoan would never kill these secret guards. After all, his secret guards were able to fight one against ten. Capturing any one of them would only bring them benefits and no harm.
Yan Kuan whistled for a while with his fingers. The sound sounded like a nightingale at night. Shen Xiaoxiao knew that he was sending a signal to everyone to act according to the situation. If necessary, they would pretend to submit, and their lives were more important.
The ultimate goal of Yan Kuan and Shen Xiaoxiao was to find the children, get the antidote, destroy the so-called time and space roulette, and get out of the mountain.
Under the moonlight, the couple slowly walked out of the mountain.
“That old fart still has such a place here. You said you them on an island before. Is this the place?”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the row of bamboo houses and felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. This Shen Guoan was really living a carefree life. Look at the birds chirping and the fragrant flowers. The surroundings were like a paradise… It really made people feel uncomfortable.
How could Yan Kuan not know what Shen Xiaoxiao was thinking? He immediately said, “My men were recovering from serious injuries. There’s only half of the route map, but it showed an island by the sea. There’s also a video, but the secret guards died from serious injuries, so I’m not sure of the exact location.”
“That means it’s very likely that this isn’t that place.”
“It shouldn’t be. The surrounding environment doesn’t look like it.”
“But it doesn’t matter. The leader is here. Shen Guoan treated Gu Yuehua well and even brought her here. I didn’t see any trace of my cheap father, but he’s just stupid. I guess Shen Guoan couldn’t be bothered to care about him.”
Hearing Shen Xiaoxiao’s evaluation of her family, he naturally couldn’t say anything. However, just as Xiaoxiao had said, these people were truly weirder and weirder than the last.
“Alright, let’s play along and let them come here. We can save ourselves some trouble. Let’s go find the children. Let’s go down the mountain first. Who knows, there might be another grotto-heaven at the bottom of the mountain.”
The two were ranked first and second in the world. They avoided tracking and patrolling the mountains. It was simply too easy to live freely in the deep mountains.
Even if they roasted enough food for themselves under the noses of these people, they wouldn’t be able to discover them.
“If the two little fellows were here, they would definitely be very happy. They like to hunt in the mountains,” Shen Xiaoxiao said somewhat unhappily. Seeing the food she was eating, she didn’t know what the children were eating at the moment.
