Chapter Fifty-Four: Kidnapping
As the last ray of the setting sun dissipates, night has officially fallen.
He had been highly concentrated all day. Such a pleasant and comfortable environment inevitably made Li Xia feel a little sleepy.
"Go back." Li Xia yawned and said.
Slowly getting up, the two of them walked back leisurely.
Walking under the moonlight is quite romantic.
The two of them walked on this path one after another, and after a few minutes, they arrived in front of the car.
Opening the car door and looking at the empty seats, Jiang Xiyan asked doubtfully: "The two of them also went for a walk?"
"I don't know." Li Xia shook his head and said.
Looking at the business card on the back seat, I frowned slightly, and an ominous premonition came to me.
"Ding--"
At this moment, Jiang Xiyan's cell phone ringtone suddenly rang.
It was a call from Xu Changyuan.
"Hey, you are..."
Halfway through Jiang Xiyan's words, she heard Xu Xiao's voice coming from the other end of the phone and frowned.
"Tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon, I will exchange the monster crystals for your teammates."
"I will notify you of the location again, remember to keep your phone open~"
After saying that, Xu Xiao hung up the phone.
The two looked at each other and fell into a brief silence.
"How could it be?" Jiang Xiyan asked in confusion, "That uncle seems to have average strength! How could he take Xu Changyuan and Qin Churan away without making a sound?"
Li Xia didn't respond, but suddenly remembered something, took out a flashlight, and rummaged around the car.
"What are you looking for?"
"Clues." Li Xia said calmly.
When Qin Churan realized that he was no match for his opponent, he would definitely leave some clues.
This is her habit.
Although she didn't know what the clues in Li Xia's words meant, Jiang Xiyan still took out her flashlight and searched with him.
The two turned the car over.
Even the chassis has not been spared.
Finally, an extremely unexpected leaf on the windshield of the car caught Li Xia's attention.
Sure enough, the letter "n" seemed to be carved with fingernails on the leaves.
"This is?" Jiang Xiyan observed the letters in front of her without knowing why.
"It should be the clue left by Qin Churan." Li Xia said lightly.
"what does it mean?"
"North." Li Xia blurted out.
Jiang Xiyan suddenly realized: "In other words, they went north?"
Li Xia nodded.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!" Jiang Xiyan couldn't wait to set out to save people.
Li Xia grabbed her and said, "You can't go now."
"Why?"
Li Xia sighed lightly and analyzed: "Since that person can take advantage of our absence, it means that he knows our whereabouts very well."
"Maybe he is still watching us from some dark corner now."
"Once we leave, they will definitely move."
Jiang Xiyan nodded in agreement, "Then what should we do now?"
Li Xia opened the car door and said, "Get in the car first."
In the car, Li Xia spoke again, "We can't do anything under their noses."
"So, if you want to save people, you have to escape from their sight first."
"We don't even know where they are, how can we escape from sight?" Jiang Xiyan asked doubtfully.
Li Xia pondered for a moment and said eloquently: "If I remember correctly, there is a cedar forest on the map Mr. Chen gave us."
"Yes!" Jiang Xiyan nodded: "It's near the swamp."
Li Xia turned to look out the window and continued: "Tomorrow, we still have to follow what he said and go get the spar first."
…
"Brother Xu, it has to be you!"
Beside a bonfire on a small hill, Huang Mao admired while gnawing on the freshly roasted hare.
"This is all trivial." Xu Xiao chuckled.
"Isn't this trivial?! They are people from the Demon Slayer Tower, and you just captured them!"
Huang Mao did not hesitate to praise him at all, as if he was a licking dog.
Xu Xiao snorted coldly, "So what about those from the Demon Slayer Tower? Which of my treasures is not a first-level or above spiritual weapon?"
"It's more than enough to deal with these little kids."
Huang Mao chuckled and continued to ask: "Brother Xu, can you tell me now why you caught them so easily just now?"
Xu Xiao glanced at Huang Mao mysteriously and said proudly: "The business card I gave that boy is actually a spiritual weapon, a phantom."
"Apparition?"
Xu Xiao nodded and continued: "You may not think that that thing is small and exquisite, but it is very dangerous."
"It can transform into any shape according to the user's wishes."
"For example, when you capture a monster, you can turn it into food that the monster likes."
"Once it comes into contact with a monster, it will unknowingly confine the abilities of monsters within a radius of five meters."
"Of course, the same goes for people."
Saying that, Xu Xiao turned back to look at Xu Changyuan and Qin Churan, who were tied back to back to a tree nearby.
"Boy, didn't your mother teach you not to take other people's things randomly?"
Xu Changyuan turned his head away with disdain and snorted: "You bitch, you don't have martial ethics!"
"What's wrong with martial ethics? I'm afraid of being deceitful in war!" Xu Xiao shouted loudly.
After saying that, he raised his eyebrows proudly again.
Huang Mao nodded as if he suddenly understood, "Brother Xu, since that thing is so powerful, why don't you just capture them together?!"
Xu Xiao tapped the yellow-haired Tianling cover with his middle finger and said angrily, "We have captured them all, who is going to the beast's cave?! Do you want to go?"
Huang Mao covered the Tianling Cap, "Yes!"
After saying that, Huang Mao toasted Xu Xiao with a glass of wine, and the two continued to eat and drink.
"Don't bother." Qin Churan said weakly under the tree, "Are you trying to strangle me to death?"
Xu Changyuan realized something was wrong and immediately relaxed, allowing Qin Churan to breathe.
"This is too weird." Xu Changyuan wondered: "Why is this rope so strong?!"
"Nonsense." Qin Churan said angrily: "Since he knows that we are from the Demon Slayer Tower, he will definitely not use ordinary ropes to tie us up."
"You mean, this rope is also a spiritual weapon?"
"Yes." Qin Churan nodded and continued: "Looking at that man's appearance, he must have more than these spiritual weapons."
Xu Changyuan let out a long sigh, "Then what should we do now? Can we just surrender without mercy?"
"Otherwise?" Qin Churan said lightly.
Although he was kidnapped now, Qin Churan's face was always calm.
"You are so smart, is there nothing you can do?"
"No."
After hearing Qin Churan's straightforward answer, Xu Changyuan had given up.
He slumped on the ground like a wreck and murmured: "I finally came out, but I didn't get the spar, and now I'm tied up. This is too miserable..."
Qin Churan ignored Xu Changyuan's thoughts.
