Chapter 892: We Are Both Surnamed Ouyang

Ah Cai and Ah Gen stumbled back to Ah Cai’s small courtyard. As soon as they entered the door, ah Gen collapsed to the ground. The huge shock made Ah Gen’s heart nearly collapse.

They had just arrived when Yan Kuan followed them. Shen Xiaoxiao had no idea what had happened. The two children looked behind them and asked Ah Cai,”Where’s Sister Tawa? Uncle Cai, why didn’t Sister Tawa come back with you?”

Only then did Shen Xiaoxiao realize that one of them was missing. She looked at Yan Kuan in surprise. Ah Gen’s condition was not good. Was what had happened related to Ah Tawa?

“Ah Tawa has been chosen as the saintess of sacrifice. Perhaps she will be sent to sacrifice those Nine-Tailed Snakes the day after tomorrow.”

“What? How could this be? Ah Tawa is only 10 years old.”

“Yes, my Ah Tawa is only 10 years old. D*mn the villagers. How could they bear it? How could they bear to let my Ah Tawa be sent to feed those d*mn Nine-Tailed Snakes? Why did they do this to my Ah Tawa?”

Ah Gen was already crying. A grown man was crying uncontrollably for his daughter. Ah Cai was even more emotional. He rushed to the wall, took his bow and arrow, and prepared to run out.

Shen Xiaoxiao was shocked when she saw this. Ah Gan, on the other hand, saw Ah Cai stand up and snatched the knife from Ah Cai’s hand.

“That’s my daughter. If you want to go, I’ll go.”

“No, that’s my fiancée. I have to save her.”

“Ah Cai, what Uncle said before doesn’t count. You two have nothing to do with each other. Ah Tawa is not your fiancée. This matter has nothing to do with you.”

“Who said that this matter has nothing to do with me? From the moment you said that she was my wife, she was already my person. I will not ignore her.”

Yan Kuan saw that the two of them were frowning. He took away their weapons and said to the two of them, “Alright, now is not the time to save people. They have already sacrificed one person today. They will definitely not touch the second one so soon. Plan well and take action at night.”

Yan Kuan’s words were like a calming needle, finally calming the two of them down.

Yan Kuan pulled Ah Gen to the side of the bed and sat him down. Then, he said,”I will help you bring Ah Tawa back tonight, but you have to be mentally prepared. Once Ah Tawa goes missing, the entire village will definitely suspect you. Where are you going? Do you know the way out?”

After hearing Yan Kuan’s words, Ah Gen and Ah Cai realized how impulsive they were. Yes, what would they do after they rescued Ah Tawa? They definitely could not stay in the village. However, if they were not here, where would they go?

Outside the village?

They could not find the way at all. They had only heard a few words from outsiders and did not know the way out in the future.

“Shall we enter the mountains?”

“The people of your entire village will enter the mountains at midnight the day after tomorrow to look for the prophet. The king will descend.”

When Yan Kuan reminded the two of them, the two of them naturally thought that they could not enter the mountains. Then, where would they go?

“Why don’t we follow the river? If we go down, the river will always connect to the outside.”

Ah Cai spoke tentatively. Ah Gen looked at Ah Cai and sighed helplessly.

“If you follow us, it will be difficult for you in the future.”

“No, I will not leave you alone. Even if I am not related to you, you are my only family. I, Ah Cai, will definitely be with you.”

“Then we will go down the river.”

“Alright, now is not the time to leave. After we save Ah Tawa, you guys hide first. Everything will be discussed after the day after tomorrow. Who knows? There might be another opportunity.”

Hearing Yan Kuan’s words, the two of them looked at each other. It was Ah Gen who came to his senses. He looked at Yan Kuan and said,”An An’s father, why did you come here?”

Ah Cai was also stunned by these words. It seemed that they had never asked them before. Previously, he thought that they had come here to save An An and Le Le. However, after seeing their actions, he felt that it was not the case. Could there be a hidden reason?

Yan Kuan looked at the two people who had just realized what was going on and smiled.

“I thought that you would never ask. To be honest with you two, we came here to find the antidote for the Suoyin Flower Tears for An An and Le Le’s mother.”

“What? The antidote for the Suoyin Flower Tears? An An Le Le’s mother, how did you fall to the Suoyin Flower Tears? This is an ancestral poison passed down through the generations in our clan. How did you outsiders fall for it?”

“This can be considered a coincidence. However, do you know anyone from the Ouyang family?”

“Ouyang? Our entire clan is surnamed Ouyang. Didn’t we tell you before?”

“What? Your entire clan is surnamed Ouyang?”

“Yes, of course we remember the surnames that have been passed down for thousands of years.”

Yan Kuan and Shen Xiaoxiao looked at each other. Now everything could be explained. The people in this village were really the ancestors of the Ouyang family or the same branch.

“But you only recorded a little bit about the Suoyin Flower Tears.”

“Yes, we did record a little bit, but there will definitely be more on the family genealogy. But the family genealogy can only be checked after entering the Temple of the Gods. The past generations are things that only our chief can record.”

Speaking of the Temple of the Gods, and then mentioning the Nine-Tailed Snake and the Yang-Revolving Pearl that had appeared before, Shen Xiaoxiao asked Yan Kuan, “Where’s 19? Where’s the Yang-Revolving Pearl and the Nine-Tailed Snakes? Why hasn’t he appeared?”

Yan Kuan could not explain this matter clearly either. 19 had indeed not appeared. Now, if he wanted to know where 19 was, he would have to enter the temple of the gods.

“Tonight, when I save Ah Tawa, I’ll also enter the Temple of the Gods. Xiaoxiao, you take care of the children.”

This time, they had no choice but to split up. Shen Xiaoxiao knew that they had to know where 19 was, or else she would not feel at ease.

Ah Cai and Ah Gen had been inexplicably excited when they heard Yan Kuan say that he would save Ah Tawa. It was always good to have an extra helper. Moreover, they knew that An An’s father was extremely skilled. He could come and go as he pleased a few times, but they had not discovered him. They wouldn’t be able to find him even in their village. If that were the case, then their chances of winning would be much greater.

Ah Gen and Ah Cai were naturally very grateful in their hearts. Moreover, Ah Cai thought for a while and said to everyone,”The people in the village are still in a state of panic. I want to go and investigate. I also want to see if there’s any news about your brother.”

Seeing that Ah Cai was so smart, Yan Kuan nodded. Indeed, he wanted to ask around in the village. At this time, only Ah Cai could do it.

“Ah Cai, be careful. The people in the village are definitely preparing to welcome the arrival of the king. You can go to the doctor and ask him to find some medicinal herbs for me. Although the clan won’t let anyone treat me, the medicine master will definitely give me some medicinal herbs. Now, ah Tawa is still a saintess of sacrifice. This doctor has been through three generations of clan leaders. He will definitely know more than you and me.”

“Yes, I know, Uncle Gen.”
