I always thought that witches were the kind of old, thin, skinny and skinny characters in movies and TV shows.
This is different from Sister Lin's understanding.
In her memory, witchcraft was the belief of the ancient ancestors. They fought against the sky, the earth, and ferocious beasts, fighting for a way out for their people in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
Therefore, witches should be strong and stocky, and only the strongest warriors deserve to be called witches.
It is the dying priests and elders who are what people remember.
Tribes blessed by witches are called witch tribes.
Once upon a time, witches ruled the land beneath their feet, but with the rise and fall of dynasties and changes in political power, the witch clan gradually disappeared in the long river of time.
All in all, this is a great tribe, and its descendants naturally retain the pride in their bones.
Just like the man named Hu in front of me, although he was half-infuriated by the promise and cut off his retreat by a group of people, I could clearly feel that there was only anger in his eyes and no trace of panic.
"Interesting, so interesting!"
"I can't believe that after living for so many years, I would be tricked by two kids in their twenties."
"What a terrible future life. Nowadays, I can't understand the world more and more. But it's okay. I finally understand why there are those hexagrams on the tortoise shell."
He suddenly smiled while stroking his hands. They thought he was going to fight a trapped beast, but everyone who was on guard suddenly felt a little confused.
"Isn't this person crazy with fear?"
Xu Nuo asked me in a low voice next to me, and I gave her a shushing gesture, meaning to ask her to shut her mouth first.
"Okay, now that the matter is over, let's open the skylight and speak frankly."
Liu Changsheng broke the deadlock and walked up to Hu: "Mr. Hu, please tell me your purpose. I'm very curious about what you want to accomplish, and what does it have to do with Gu Yan?"
"This is between me and Gu Yan and has nothing to do with you."
He just glanced at Liu Changsheng coldly, and then turned his gaze to me: "Gu Yan, I will give you one last chance to become your teacher. I will protect you in the future."
"No, there's something wrong with your wizard mind, right? There are so many of us here, why do you need to take care of me?"
Qian Shousan made some mocking remarks, but Hu didn't even look at him and just sneered.
"Mr. Hu, I think you are a shaman, and I will respect you only if you have some connection with our shamans, but you must not be ignorant of the compliment."
Liu Changsheng's tone also became cold: "As long as you tell me about that incident and swear not to cause trouble to Gu Yan in the future, then I will immediately give way to an escape route and send Mr. Hu away, and the past incident will be treated as if it never happened."
The man named Hu narrowed his eyes slightly: "What if I don't say it?"
Liu Changsheng was calm: "There is no enmity between you and me, there is no need to fight to the death, but today is New Year's Eve, and we cannot neglect Mr. Hu's coming all the way.
Well, since Mr. Hu insists not to say anything, please come to my house first so that I can fulfill my duties as a landlord. When Mr. Hu figures it out and is willing to say it, I will naturally send you off respectfully.
Also, Mr. Hu, don’t forget, this is the Xing’an Mountains, the shaman’s territory, no one can leave unless I nod.”
"Oh, that's such a big statement, you want to keep me? Just because you want to keep me too?"
He suddenly let out a wild laugh, and then glanced around with cold eyes: "Just looking at you guys, two Taoist priests, one is barely capable, and the other is not popular at all.
Two willow immortals, you are considered a prophet, and your daughter has just touched the threshold of being a wizard.
There are still five unscrupulous villains, and if you tie them up, they won't be any better than you.
Just because you want to keep me? You deserve to keep me!"
As soon as he said these words, the whole audience fell into silence.
I was also a little surprised, wondering if the person named Hu was really crazy, as Xu Nuo said?
No matter how unbearable Master Yin is, he is still an outstanding person who can escape from those demon cultivators, let alone Liu Changsheng. Qingqing told me that her father was the leader in Xing'an Ridge.
There are also the Qian brothers. These five people are shady after all, and no matter how bad they are, they are still stronger than ordinary evil spirits.
But are these people so miserable in his eyes?
I didn't understand and didn't dare to speak. I could only stare at Liu Changsheng silently to see his reaction.
"Um...our brother has a few dishes, but there are so many of us."
Not long after, Qian Shousan broke the silence. He murmured something in a low voice, and then clapped his hands: "Come on, come on, brothers, please come out. Don't let others look down on us."
With the sound of his clapping, the woods not far away suddenly became blurry.
A large group of black figures wearing short shirts appeared in the darkness. They came to stand behind Qian Shousan.
It seemed that with the blessing of a large team of people, Qian Shousan was more confident. He yelled at the man named Hu: "Come on, come on, that old boy, aren't you awesome? You are awesome. You can challenge a group of us alone."
Try it?"
"Huh, rabble."
The man surnamed Hu snorted coldly again, and turned to look at me: "Gu Yan, don't expect this group of people to protect you. At this level, once the hexagram comes true, they may not be able to protect themselves.
It's okay if you don't agree to become my teacher. I won't force you today. I'll give you time to think about it carefully. After you think about it, come to the hospital to find me. Remember, only I can protect you in this troubled world.
That’s all I have to say, you and I may meet again when we are destined!”
He said this and turned around to leave.
Naturally, Liu Changsheng would not let him get his wish. He took a sideways step to block his way: "Did I let you go?"
Following Liu Changsheng's actions, Qian Shousan's undercover agents also dispersed and surrounded the area in small groups.
I saw that their positions seemed to vaguely form a formation, and I even felt a hint of aura pulling them, but I couldn't be sure whether it was exactly that or not.
Even Master Yin moved. He took out the long sword I saw that day from his sleeve, and Xu Mingyang also took out the Shocking Bell from his arms.
As a strange fragrance came, the dragon bone whip also appeared in Qingqing's hand.
In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the surroundings fell into deathly silence.
But Xu Nuo's trembling voice came again in his ears: "Gu Yan, what are uncle and the others doing? I think that old man looks like my uncle's master, but isn't he already dead?
And what the man said about shamans, prophets, and wizards, and the Yin difference, where is the Yin difference, why didn’t I see it?”
…
I was too lazy to talk to her, but stared nervously at the two protagonists.
Not long after, the man surnamed Hu broke the silence. He was not surprised but smiled: "Why, do we have to take action?"
Liu Changsheng's tone was gloomy: "Answer the question I just asked, and then tell me what the hexagram you mentioned is, and I will naturally let you go."
"Hexagram? Haha, the hexagram means that you can't keep me here even if you invite Jesus here today. That's what I said!"
As soon as the man named Hu finished speaking, he immediately slapped Liu Changsheng with a palm.
