Volume 1: Swan Goose Chapter 407: Crossing the Forgotten River under the Bleak Moon
——Anxiety——
Time passed bit by bit, and the night seemed to pass very slowly.
This room, which was extremely gorgeous during the day, was as dark as a tomb at this time, and was as oppressive as suffocating.
Yu Fengjin, who was facing Yu Fengjin's face, stared at the ceiling in trance. He was very tired, but he forced himself not to fall asleep. He was afraid that when he woke up, his head would be in a different place.
Besides Lu Ning, the only thing in my mind was Lu Ning.
Where is she being held?
How many people are guarding the area?
Why do you become such a foolish person?
And...how on earth should I rescue them?
But then I thought about it, I was still locked in this room and couldn't go anywhere, so how could I save anyone?
The hot breath of the woman next to him kept hitting his face, sweet and stuffy, which made him very bored.
A smooth voice sounded in his ear: "You are the first man who has been held by me and yet felt nothing!"
"I don't think there's anything exciting about being forced to sleep with a woman I don't like!" Yu Fengjin frowned and moved a little further away from her.
Meng Xiniang supported her head, stared at his profile, and said softly: "Don't you men all like romantic places? The women there are very proactive, aren't they?"
"Comparing a goddess to a prostitute is too strong a statement!" Yu Fengjin suppressed her anger, but could not hide the disgust on her face.
Instead of being annoyed, Meng Xiniang covered her mouth and smiled: "You really make me like you more and more! I really want to keep you by my side, torture you little by little, and make you surrender to me and be fascinated by me!"
Yu Fengjin turned around and snorted: "I'm afraid it will be difficult!"
Meng Xiniang stroked his back gently, her voice full of urgency: "The more you say this, the more I want to try it!"
Yu Fengjin pondered for a moment, then turned his eyes and glared at her gently: "Okay, I can stay with you. As long as you let my two sisters go!"
"Sister?" Meng Xiniang raised her eyebrows and pierced him with a smile: "No matter how I look at them, I think they are more like your sweetheart!"
Yu Fengjin's expression darkened slightly: "Both of them are engaged. You let them go, and I'll stay!"
He said this with a heart of atonement.
"Are you sacrificing for love? Or...are you attracted to me?" Meng Xiniang smiled charmingly, but her face was still cunning.
"I also want to try it! Will I... be tempted by a woman like you?" After thinking for a moment, Yu Fengjin said as if she had made up her mind.
Even though she said these words, Yu Fengjin trembled all over and couldn't accept it no matter what...br
But he knows that he must not anger the crazy woman in front of him! He must try his best to deal with her, neither letting her succeed nor making her lose her patience. He can only behave indifferently, which whets her appetite!
"But it still doesn't work!"
Meng Xiniang laughed softly, her laughter was very low and soft, but extremely determined: "We finally found a river goddess woman, how can we let him go so easily! You have to know that now the people in the entire Jiangning Mansion are all our Chishui
The believers of the religion. What they look forward to most every month is the sacrificial ceremony! Even if I let the two women go now, they will still be captured before long!"
Yu Fengjin was a little surprised by the influence of Chishui Sect!
He did not expect that such a cult, full of loopholes, lies, and chaos, would lead countless people to believe in and become obsessed with it.
"One woman is going to be used as a sacrifice to the River Goddess, but what about the other one? You can always let her go!" In desperation, he could only resort to this strategy, and he could save one by one.
Meng Xiniang laughed out loud, but her eyes were still cold: "That one is even worse! Her birth date is a perfect match for our leader. So she wants to become the leader's bride!"
Yu Fengjin was shocked: "So, you are not the leader?"
Meng Xiniang shook her head and blinked: "Yes, I am just a goddess! Chishui Sect also has a leader!"
"Then..." Yu Fengjin continued to ask.
But Meng Xiniang stretched out a finger, covered his lips, and whispered softly: "It's better not to ask any more questions. On the tenth day of the lunar month, everything will be revealed!"
Yu Fengjin looked at this woman with a blank expression, a smile as bright as a flower but a heart as thick as a snake's scorpion, and suddenly realized:
All the people in Chishui Sect are no longer normal humans!
They have paranoid ideas that no one can shake!
Continuing to argue with her will lead to no result! It seems that I have to find a way to escape and rescue the two of them.
Thinking of this, Yu Fengjin said: "Since your sect is so huge and we are all turtles in a jar, why do you still lock me in this room? Are you afraid that I will run away without any weapons?"
"Don't think I don't know. You want to go out and save those two women. How can I do what you want?" Meng Xiniang looked at him and smiled slightly, her eyes calm and clear.
Yu Fengjin was startled, thinking that this woman is really smart!
"Can I be rescued? Since you want to keep me, you don't want to keep me here forever! Facing a lifeless man for a long time, you will slowly lose interest!"
After Meng Xiniang thought about it, she leaned on Yu Fengjin's shoulder and said coquettishly: "Okay, I can not imprison you and let you go out of this room for an hour every day. How do you like it?"
"If you do more of this, I might like you soon!" Her intimacy made Yu Fengjin's stomach and heart churn, but he could only endure his nausea and continue to deal with her.
Meng Xiniang pinched his chin and said coquettishly: "You, be careful if you are too greedy and the snake swallows the elephant!"
It seems that her bottom line is here, and if she insists on it, it will only be counterproductive.
Yu Fengjin had no choice but to pretend to accept it happily and stop bargaining with her.
----------------------------------------
No matter what he went through and what he paid for, the result did not disappoint him too much - he gained some freedom and space.
On the first day, he was not eager to explore the place where Mu Qianqian and Lu Ning were imprisoned. Instead, he just walked around freely in the yard, pretending to be taking a walk.
Occasionally, if he deliberately goes the wrong way and enters some restricted areas of the Chishui Sect, someone will immediately jump out to drive him away.
This allowed him to see through Meng Xiniang's trick - she said she was giving herself freedom, but in fact she was monitoring herself all the time.
It seemed that he had to try to get rid of these people. Otherwise, before he could find out where they were hiding, they might have been caught by Meng Xiniang's people. They would not be released again in the future.
It was mid-summer in the middle of May, and there was a cool south breeze in the early morning. Yu Fengjin continued to look around pretending to be casual.
The people in yellow clothes all over the courtyard were very wary of him and wanted to fix their eyes on him.
Yu Fengjin understood: she was just a sacrifice, and the sacrifice was not qualified to move around at will! This was just a gift from the goddess!
This is a five-entry courtyard with many rooms.
Yu Fengjin knew that two such important people as Lu Ning and Mu Qianqian must be imprisoned in a secret place and would not be easily found by him.
He stood in the courtyard a little confused: Where are the two of them among these hundreds of rooms? I can't open them one by one and take a look!
While he was worried, he suddenly saw several people in yellow clothes walking out of a room, holding freshly prepared meals in their hands, which seemed to be enough for one person.
Yu Fengjin immediately hid, and they walked a little further before coming out and sneaking behind them.
Several people walked through the courtyard and walked to a secluded and independent courtyard. One person opened the door and walked in with food, while the others stood outside the courtyard and waited.
Soon, the person who delivered the food turned around and walked out, and then several people left together.
Watching them walk away, Yu Fengjin tiptoed over and found that the courtyard door was unlocked.
There must be Chishui cultists in the yard. The imprisoned people drank the sacred water and became stupid and unable to escape, so they didn't escape at all.
It is necessary to lock the door!
Yu Fengjin gently pushed open the door and saw the five-foot-square room with extremely simple furnishings:
There was just a table, a chair, and a bed, not even a lamp.
There was hot food on the table, and a girl was sitting on a chair, slowly putting it into her mouth one bite at a time.
It’s true that the Emperor and Heaven pay off!
It's Lu Ning.
Yu Fengjin rushed forward in a few excited steps, forgetting her identity at this time, and actually called out "Ning'er" one after another.
But the girl didn't react at all. She still put the rice in her mouth numbly, her eyes were dull and dull, and she completely lost her previous charm.
This must be caused by the holy water! Although Yu Fengjin could not understand the meaning, she knew that she could not save Lu Ning unless she relieved her of this symptom!
The suppressed emotions in Yu Fengjin's heart reached their limit, and finally broke out at this moment.
He stared at Lu Ning sadly for a while, then held her in his arms: "Ning'er, don't worry! I will definitely find a way to rescue you!"
If Lu Ning had any consciousness, he would have pushed him away angrily and ran away without looking back.
But at this moment, Lu Ning's eyes were dull, silent, and she was like a doll at his mercy.
While he was immersed in powerless sadness, there was suddenly a rush of footsteps outside the door.
It seemed that the men in yellow had discovered that he was missing and were looking for him everywhere.
Unable to delay any longer, Yu Fengjin couldn't help but plant a kiss on Lu Ning's forehead, then stood up and quickly left the room.
For this plan, he must first find a way to remove the divine water!
He walked back with concern, and suddenly saw more than a dozen people in yellow clothes in the courtyard, who were putting hundreds of bottles of sacred water into boxes and preparing to carry them out.
He suddenly came up with a plan and stole a bottle of divine water when no one was prepared, hid it in his arms and quickly returned to Meng Xiniang's room so as not to stay out for too long and arouse her suspicion.
Meng Xiniang was not in the room.
He sat at the table, took out the divine water and looked at it, then opened the lid and smelled it.
This sacred water is colorless and odorless, and I don't know what is mixed in it, but it can make people lose their minds.
Although Yu Fengjin is a little worried: If her plan fails, she will miss a good opportunity to save people!
But when I thought of Lu Ning's silly and silly look, I became cruel and drank all the water in the bottle...
