Tu MaGu said, “I am the Miao tribe leader, you can just call me Tu MaGu”
Ghost Li was stunned, although he could tell that this elder was held in high prestige by the Miao people but he did not expect that he was actually the tribe leader, immediately he nodded and said, “As such I thank you tribe leader” Tu MaGu shook his head, said, “Quickly go up! The great sha for all of you!”
Ghost Li acknowledged and wanted to set off for the altar but was held back by Xiao Bai, looking at her soft-like-boneless body still leaning weakly onto him, if he were to walk off like that, she would have to fall onto the ground He spoke in a low voice to Xiao Bai, “Xiao Bai, I areat shaht?” Xiao Bai, unclear if she had heard hi Ghost Li’s voice beside her ear, she did not open her eyes, her face smiled, extrerabbed on to his clothes, tightened
Ghost Li was helpless, besides this was an unfamiliar place and with Xiao Bai in this state, if he were to leave her alone here, inevitably he would feel uneasy He thought of h, stretched his hands out to support her and walked up the ether
Tu MaGu led the way, Ghost Li supporting Xiao Bai following, Xiao Bai’s body was still weak and even her steps were light, ht was on Ghost Li’s hand Ghost Li frowned and felt an inexplicable feeling, suddenly, he see and turned around, indeed Xiao Hui was still there, at the sahing sounds froot itself
Ghost Li kicked with his leg, a banana flew up and hit just right at Xiao Hui’s head, scaring Xiao Hui, itsits hand to rub the area where it was hit Ghost Li angrily said, “Going” Then supporting (carrying?) Xiao Bai and followed Tu MaGu up to the altar
Xiao Hui scratched its head, stood up and thren the fruits in its hands (actually it had eatenThat soldier had a strong alcohol tolerance and drankhad fallen onto the ground anddrunk by the monkey for so on the ground and was about to follow Ghost Li, suddenly it paused and made a hiccup sound, its monkey’s face too slowly turned red, looked like the Miao liquor was really extraordinary, right now the alcohol was slowly travelling up to its head But Xiao Hui was after all a spiritual ani red but it still behaved as normal and quickly ran over to follow Ghost Li
Just that while following behind on the way up, the Miao soldiers ere standing guard were now lying on the ground drunk, their wine bags littered the ground Ghost Li supporting Xiao Bai walked past ahead, Xiao Hui walked and walked, suddenly it stopped and picked up another big wine bag frou lu] a splashi+ng sound was heard, seemed likeits delight
With the pleasant surprise, Xiao Hui iht hand side, shook it once or twice; picked up another froain While it walked on, it keep picking, too bad the monkey only had two hands, dropped one after it picked another, but because of its greediness, it refused to give up any, it placed all of its collection together, a total of seven, eight wine bags but it was unable to bring it along, anxiously it could only make [zhi zhi] shrieks
It was about to look up and seek help froot a shock, its master and that Miao elder had already walked far and al the altar Xiao Hui [zhi zhi] shrieked, jurabbed its ear and scratched its cheeks, like ants on a hot stove, finally it s, both hands dragging behind on the ground, ran with all its ht up the mountain
Luckily the wine bags made by Miao people were thick and sturdy, if not, to be dragged by it like that, it would have broke long ago Looking at thethe Miao crowd onlookers, wafted over from far, reverberated in the Seven Mile Cave
Xiao Hui rushed along the way and finally caught up to Ghost Li at the entrance of the altar, panting heavily
Ghost Li gave a sideways glance, thewith loud breaths but its hands were still tightly holding onto the tine bags, he was stunned and then shook his head, turned his head back
Tu MaGu esture towards the altar, said, “Follow me!”
Ghost Li nodded and said, “Many thanks”
Tu MaGu smiled and went in first, Ghost Li behind hi the altar, the diht sunshi+ne world outside The great shaave some specific instructions as on their way in, Tu MaGu and Ghost Li did not encounter anyone else in the altar Xiao Bai was deep in her intoxication, Ghost Li’s heart was preoccupied and did not observe the surroundings, only Xiao Hui dragging the two big wine bags behind the curiously around In the dim altar, on those rock walls, the red colours could be faintly seen, looked to be painted with fresh blood And at the corner of the rock walls, savage-looking ornaments of ferocious beast bones were frequently seen there Xiao Hui [zhi zhi] called out twice and seemed uneasy, it quickened its steps and followed Ghost Li closely but its hands which were still holding on to those wine bags, never once let go Their way in was quite smooth and very quickly they reached the deepest part of the altar, the stone chareat shaman was
Ghost Li suddenly frowned, even though right noas feeling quite nervous but he could sense the icy cold energy emitted by the Sinister Orb in his body suddenly stirred, in this stone chagering the Sinister Orb Tu MaGu turned around and said to Ghost Li, “Here it is, the great shao in!”
Ghost Li nodded and followed Tu MaGu in, one glance and they saw the hunched figure back facing thenalled to them to wait and then walked forward, stopped at where he did previously, respectfully said, “Great shaman, they are here”
The great sha unhurriedly, to Ghost Li’s ears, it was actually fluent authentic Central Plains language, saying, “Invite the o!”
Tu MaGu acknowledged, turned and spoke to Ghost Li, “Then you all shall have a talk with the great shao out first”
Ghost Li nodded and said, “Tribe leader, I really thank you”
Tu MaGu slanced at Xiao Bai as in the crook of Ghost Li’s arirl with such remarkable alcohol tolerance in this world, it was really unbelieveable While , he unhurriedly left
Until Tu MaGu’s figure disappeared, Ghost Li turned over and looked ahead That hunched figure flickered ceaselessly in the firelight, flickering between the darkness, giving a surreal feeling and full ofon how to beseech hi man, come over!”
When Ghost Li heard the elderly voice, reverence suddenly rose in his heart, ied with a word, “Yes” He, while supporting Xiao Bai, sloalked over, about six chi behind the elder, he paused for a moment and did not continue, stood where he was
Xiao Hui, dragging the two big wine bags, also followed along, closely trailing Ghost Li’s feet, its three eyes unceasingly glancing left and right, assessing the surroundings and lastly it’s eyes stopped at that strange Dog deity statue, it could not stop looking at it “Take a seat!” The great shaed voice quietly said
Ghost Li obeyed, Xiao Bai by now could not stand and the liquor’s full strength had seeainst Ghost Li, rubbed her head against Ghost Li’s shoulder a few times and then fell into a deep sleep As for Xiao Hui, it seemed to be also affected by the quiet atmosphere in this stone chamber, it did not dare to even breathe loudly,quietly sat beside Xiao Bai, placed the wine bags beside it, quietly took one and drank a reat shaman
“You all are looking forthe fire and did not turn around
Ghost Li said, “Great shaman, I have a friend, she lost two of her souls and sevenonly one remnant of her soul, now that it has been a total of ten years, like a dead person I heard that great shaman you know the Soul Return Unusual Art and would be able to save her Please great shaman you must, must save her…” At the last words, his voice see wait, bitter search, as if all at this ushed up to his heart
The great shaman did not speak and remained silent, the stone chamber seereat shaht After a long while, the great shaman broke the silence and said, “That friend of yours, how did she have this illness?” Ghost Li hesitated for a ht with the enemies, the other party had unfathohty power to strike down, I was helpless to block it She, she disregarded her life, ignited all of her body’s blood to fuse with her three souls and seven ed to save me but she herself had already beca while and then continued, “But luckily she had a rare treasure ‘HeHuan Bell’ on her, at the critical moli you to please save her”
The great sharee in the firelight, he slowly said, “The friend that you ot a shock, he was afraid of the Evil sect notoriety and therefore did not dare to specificallyhis words, would suddenly bring it up directly While he was still at a lost, the great shairl! And the incantation that was used, would be the Evil sect secret skill ‘Infatuation Curse’, right?”
