The fool prince: the world's number one concubine

Chapter 130 Three: The Ancient Ritual 3

The three were silent at the same time.

The cries were still coming and going all around, and the heavy air suddenly condensed.

Wen Chuyao relaxed a little, and said to the coachman: "Carfu Sun, if there is anything Rong Xuan and I can help you, just say it, if we can do it, we will do it."

The coachman burst into tears, a strong man with beards, suddenly cried like a child, with snot and tears flowing everywhere.

Han Rongxuan walked over, lightly patted the coachman on the shoulder, and said, "Say something."

The coachman tried his best to control his emotions, finally calmed down, bowed deeply to Han Rongxuan and Wen Chuyao, and said, "I'm sorry, I know you have important things to do and I shouldn't delay you, but for the sake of the villagers, I There is really no way."

Wen Chuyao stepped forward to help the coachman, and said, "Chef Sun, we have known you for so long, we all know what kind of person you are, you will never do anything for yourself, just tell me if you have any difficulties."

The coachman finally said: "This village is called Dafu Village. The people in the village have always lived a very simple and happy life. I am also from this village. Last year, a wizard came to the village suddenly and performed a ritual. Everything has changed."

"Wizard?" Han Rongxuan asked, "What wizard?"

The coachman replied: "That day, a sorceress came to the village. She said that she came from the dead wood forest in the northern country. She said that she had calculated that there was a disaster in our village and came to rescue us."

Wen Chuyao asked, "Do the villagers believe her?"

The coachman said helplessly: "At that time, some of the villagers believed it. The village head is too old to distinguish these things, so he can only ask the wizard what to do."

"The wizard said that we must use the potion she brought us to sprinkle all the flowers, plants and trees in and around the village, and at the same time, pour the remaining potion into the river, so that everything can be resolved."

"The witch also gave each of us a small bottle of potion, saying that we should drink it every day."

Han Rongxuan and Wen Chuyao became more suspicious as they listened, and asked, "Then what happened after that?"

The coachman said: "Later, an official from the imperial court passed by our village. The villagers warmly entertained him with fruits and meals. Who knew that the official died after eating our food."

Han Rongxuan and Wen Chuyao were surprised at the same time, a thought immediately popped up in their hearts, the villagers here must have been framed.

The coachman really said: "Later, we found out that the medicine that the so-called witch gave us was an antidote, and the medicine that was sprinkled in the river and on the flowers and trees was poison."

"Later, the villagers ran out of antidote, and many children and elderly people began to get sick. No one dared to eat or drink the village's water. Some died of starvation, and some died of illness."

Han Rongxuan asked, "Then you haven't thought about relocating?"

The coachman smiled wryly and said, "Why didn't I think about it, but because we killed the important officials of the imperial court, the whole village was guarded, and now everyone can only enter but not exit."

Wen Chuyao and Han Rongxuan lamented at the same time that it was too much.

Han Rongxuan asked: "Then, if you asked us to come, how can we help you?"

The coachman fell silent suddenly, and looked straight at the ground. There seemed to be a trace of chill in that gaze. Wen Chuyao shuddered unexpectedly when she watched.

Han Rongxuan felt that feeling, which was a dangerous signal.

The coachman said suddenly, "Because that wizard wants to see you."

"What?" Wen Chuyao and Han Rongxuan said it almost at the same time, their hearts filled with question marks and anxiety.

The coachman nodded, looking from the ground to their faces.

Han Rongxuan adjusted his state and said calmly: "In this case, let's go to the meeting earlier."

Wen Chuyao also nodded understandingly.

The coachman's gaze became docile all of a sudden. It seemed that he was afraid that they would refuse or run away, so his whole body was full of vigilance.

Han Rongxuan led Wen Chuyao, and slowly followed behind the coachman.

The surrounding trees seem to be artificially set up, standing straight on both sides of the road. Both the flowers, fruits and leaves on the trees are very bright in color, but the two weeds have withered.

Gradually approaching the village, the village is very small and surrounded by low fences. There is no paddy on the ground or peppers hanging on the wall like other villages in the village. This village seems to be uninhabited.

The only sound was that cry, one after another, intermittent.

Wen Chuyao tried hard to see a figure or an open window but couldn't find it.

The coachman saw the surprise of the two of them, and he said: "This village is like this now. The villagers dare not go out during the day, because the witch said that anyone who dares to go out will have no antidote."

Wen Chuyao asked puzzledly: "The villagers don't come out during the day, so what do they eat?"

The coachman replied: "The witch will send people to deliver food and drink to them from door to door."

Han Rongxuan asked again: "You said, this place is under surveillance by soldiers, where are the soldiers?"

The coachman pointed to the window of one of the houses, Han Rongxuan and Wen Chuyao looked intently, and saw a knife handle protruding from the window, they couldn't help but gasped.

The coachman said: "Every soldier is directly monitored at home."

Han Rongxuan asked suddenly: "So you say, soldiers and witches are together?"

The coachman shook his head and said: "The soldiers who came before have all disappeared one after another. These soldiers came later, and they should all belong to witches, but I don't know what the relationship between the former soldiers and them is."

Han Rongxuan fell silent thoughtfully.

Wen Chuyao said: "It seems that those soldiers before are all in danger."

Han Rongxuan nodded and said, "Yes, this woman is not simple."

The palms of the two people clenched at the same time.

There was a slight change in the sky suddenly. The coachman took Han Rongxuan and Wen Chuyao around the village and went out from another exit. Immediately afterwards, the sun was suddenly covered by dark clouds, and the whole forest was blown out of the shadows by the wind. air conditioner.

The driver suddenly said, "The road ahead is slippery, be careful."

Wen Chuyao couldn't help asking, "How long will it take?"

The coachman said: "The place where she lives is very hidden, and it's a little hard to find, but it's not far away, but the road will be rough."

Wen Chuyao nodded, and Han Rongxuan took her hand carefully.Wen Chuyao tried her best to maintain her body balance, and there was actually a thin bend of shallow water along the side of the path, and the sound of the water made people feel a little more relaxed and happy.

Soon, the dense trees on both sides of the road began to disappear, Wen Chuyao's face was gradually illuminated by the sun, the two of them couldn't help looking around, and there was another world, a beautiful field, with flocks of sheep, chickens and ducks , there is a small wooden house in the middle of the field, the strange thing is that it has a pointed roof.

Wen Chuyao walked over and saw that the fence around the wooden house was not ordinary wood, but surrounded by layers of sharp thorns and thorny roses. It looked beautiful from a distance, but it made people feel chills when viewed up close.
