Seeing that the Fourth Ridge Master didn't seem to be joking, Lin Wu was stunned.
She immediately thought of Mo Chuan's reaction when she called him that not long ago... So it was because of this! "No, I didn't mean that," Lin Wu explained, "When I knew my master, he just called me... No, I meant..."
Lin Wu choked.
How to explain this?! She couldn't just say she came from a thousand years later!
I don't know if the Fourth Ridge Master understood it. He sighed and said, "It's no use for you to explain to me. Go back and talk to your master yourself."
Lin Wu: “…”
What the hell is this? She shook her head and put it aside, saying, "Master Siling, why didn't my master agree to leave with you? Was it because of the restrictions of the blood binding, or because he had a knot in his heart about this place?"
If this problem is solved and Mochuan is willing to go back to the Thirteenth Ridge with the Four Ridge Masters, then she can get out?
The Fourth Ridge Master sighed upon hearing this: "Perhaps it is because of the Blood Binding Technique. But that is secondary. This Ridge Master can see that he clearly does not want to live anymore."
Lin Wu thought of the way he saw Mo Chuan on the altar before, his expression froze, and he said, "Did he let those villagers do that to him... and even let other outsiders do that... because he didn't want to live anymore?"
The Lord of the Four Ridges said in a gloomy voice, "The villagers of previous generations could barely do it, but this generation... maybe they are well fed and clothed, so they started to have feelings for him again. With the restriction of blood binding, he couldn't refuse. Moreover, the villagers spontaneously named this village Baimin Village, and spread the news that he could increase lifespan, which attracted countless coveted people."
The villagers would not protect Mochuan like their ancestors did, but would trade with outsiders. As long as the outsiders could provide what they needed, or exchange it with huge wealth, they would provide the flesh and blood that the outsiders wanted, without the outsiders having to bear the possible danger.
Outsiders all thought it was worth it, and gradually more and more people came, and the villagers became more and more excessive.
By now, Mochuan has gotten used to it.
Lin Wu's face turned ugly when he heard this. "Master of the Fourth Ridge, since the Thirteenth Ridge wants my master, you should have considered the impact of the blood binding. Can't you untie the blood binding?"
"Of course there is a way."
"What?!"
Lin Wu unconsciously leaned forward and listened carefully.
The Fourth Ridge Master glanced back, with an ambiguous expression: "Only he can do this method, and he knows it."
Lin Wu was stunned, "Then why didn't my master untie himself and go with you immediately?"
The Fourth Ridge Master withdrew his gaze and looked at her.
"You'll have to ask him about that."
"Little girl, if you can persuade him to follow me, I will owe you a favor and will repay you in the future."
Lin Wu thought about it, but she really couldn't understand why Mo Chuan didn't want to leave.
"Okay, you sit here by yourself. It's time for me to go and rest." The fourth ridge master stood up and was about to leave when he suddenly stopped. "Don't say that I didn't remind you. You disturbed the villagers. They won't let it go and will come looking for you."
Lin Wu frowned.
The Siling Lord entered an empty room on the right.
Lin Wu sat quietly for a long time, then suddenly stood up and went to the back.
There is also a small courtyard behind the main temple, facing the slope. On the north side there is a cave entrance deeply embedded in the hillside, and the cave door is tightly closed.
There are no other houses, so Mochuan should be inside.
Lin Wu walked over and knocked on the door first.
No response.
Mochuan is still sleeping?
Lin Wu looked at the cave entrance in deep thought.
So what she had to do now was to find out why Mo Chuan knew how to remove the blood binding but didn't do it, and left it to the villagers to do what they wanted. Then she could persuade him to leave with the Four Ridge Lords.
Then come back to find Mochuan later and let him get some sleep and rest first.
Lin Wu didn't want to just wait, so he left and went back to the village.
After a while, the villagers around the altar were able to move. They supported each other and staggered together, saying something angrily.
Lin Wu got angry when he saw them, so he went up to them and shouted at them.
The villagers were startled and when they turned around to see that it was her, they wanted to rush up to take revenge, but perhaps because they remembered the memory of being beaten, they stopped out of hesitation and just pointed at Lin Wu and talked in muttered terms.
Lin Wu didn't know what they were saying, but from their expressions he could tell that they were swearing.
She frowned, "I hate people pointing fingers at me and scolding me."
The villagers didn't seem to understand and talked even more excitedly.
So Lin Wu rolled up his sleeves, went over and beat them up again.
Lin Wu stacked the three priests together, then tied them up with the ropes on the stone platform, squatted in front of them, and patted their bruised faces.
"I'm saying, don't go looking for my master again, do you understand?" Lin Wu said while gesturing.
The three of them were now unable to speak clearly and could only mumble, still struggling hard.
Lin Wu slapped him.
"Do you understand?"
The three struggled violently.
Lin Wu pinned him down and beat him again.
The three men were motionless, as if they had fainted.
The other villagers who were still awake were huddled together, shivering, and muttering something.
Lin Wu's eyes rolled around, and he suddenly stepped back. In front of them, he transformed into a beast, and deliberately grew several times larger, roaring at them fiercely.
Lin Wu's beast form is actually a wolf, but under normal circumstances, he is as small as a kitten. His entire body is snow-white, and his fur is long and smooth, beautiful and harmless.
Perhaps because the blood power in her body is too strong, she also inherited certain characteristics of the clan leader's generation, such as pointed green eyes, crimson hair on her chest and forehead, and possessing strength far beyond that of an ordinary wolf.
But Lin Wu still felt disgusted.
Because her beast-like appearance looks weak and unintimidating, and is also very conspicuous, she can be noticed at a glance wherever she goes.
But the visual impact after being enlarged several times is completely incomparable.
Lin Wu smashed the stone platform with one claw.
The villagers were stunned.
The next moment, they ran away screaming.
The three priests also screamed and fainted.
Lin Wu then changed back into human form and walked back slowly.
The sky gradually darkened, Lin Wu went back, and she was the only one in the yard.
After struggling for so long, Lin Wu was extremely hungry and looked for food everywhere. However, he couldn't find even a grain of rice in such a big place!
Lin Wu didn't want to disturb Mo Chuan's recuperation, so he went to knock on the door of the Lord of Siling.
Soon the Four Ridge Masters came out.
"Hello, senior. Are you hungry?" Lin Wu asked politely.
The Siling Lord was at his ease: "Are you hungry?"
"It's OK."
"Then bear with it for a while."
"?"
Lin Wu called out to Si Lingzhu who was about to go back, "Aren't you hungry?"
She pointed at the sky suggestively. It was already late! It was time to eat! The Fourth Ridge Master said slowly, "This Ridge Master no longer needs to eat."
Lin Wu: “…”
The Fourth Ridge Master said again: "Oh, you don't need that master either."
So there is nothing to eat in such a big place?
The Lord of Siling closed the door.
Lin Wu had no choice but to give up asking him for help and went outside to look for food, but found nothing.
In desperation, Lin Wu turned back to the village.
There was no one at the altar. Lin Wu entered the village, but found that every household had closed their doors.
Lin Wu tried to knock on doors to exchange food with the villagers, but he knocked on seven or eight doors in a row and no one dared to open the door.
She clearly heard voices inside, but she pretended that no one was there.
In the end, Lin Wu returned with nothing and lay powerless on the stone table.
This was the scene that Mochuan saw when he finally came out.
