Staring into Ah Chu's eyes, Xiao Ruyu wanted to get more information about the witchcraft cult, so he began to persuade her, "So according to you, your leader is even more powerful?"
When talking about the leader, Ah Chu couldn't help but show a look of admiration on his face.
"Of course, the master has learned from the orthodox Miao village tradition."
"But I learned it from him, so I am considered semi-orthodox."
Orthodox Miao village?
Xiao Ruyu caught the important news and couldn't wait to ask.
"Where is the Master?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Ah Chu instantly became alert and looked at her with a bit of impatience.
"Why are you asking so much?"
"Could it be?" He suddenly approached, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"Want to do something unlawful to the leader?"
Xiao Ruyu quickly shook her head and made up an excuse to fool him, "No, I'm just slightly interested in witchcraft and want to learn a little bit about it."
Achu didn't think much about it. He looked her up and down and snorted in disdain.
"You should think about how to protect yourself first."
After saying that, he ignored me and left.
The dungeon door was closed again, and even the moonlight was obscured by dark clouds at some point, and a feeling of darkness and loneliness came over them.
Xiao Ruyu flashed into the space and remained deep in thought.
Orthodox Miao heritage?
But when they went to the Miao village that time, they clearly learned that the Miao skills would not be passed on to outsiders.
It also proved that no one from Miaojiang had left the village without permission...
etc……
There is one more person!
Xiao Ruyu suddenly understood and when she came to her senses she heard Eleven calling her.
Seeing that she looked absent-minded since she came in, Eleven thought that Lu Zongyuan had cast a spell on her again, and anxiously pinched her all over her body.
"Little princess, they didn't do anything to you, did they?"
Eleven's words could not conceal his worry and his expression was nervous.
Xiao Ruyu shook her head, but her eyes were firm.
[Eleven, I know who the leader of that witchcraft cult is.]
"Who?" Eleven was stunned, looking at her confident expression.
[I guess, this is most likely the genius boy who left Miaojiang! ]
Xiao Ruyu recalled what the village chief said when they were in the Miao village. Counting the years, he could almost match the age of the leader!
"Little princess, what you mean is... the young man from Miao who was driven out?"
Eleven also reacted and nodded thoughtfully, "If that's the case, everything can be connected."
[Eleven, go and tell Master about this and ask him to be extremely careful!]
Xiao Ruyu looked nervous and told Eleven to go back immediately.
Eleven agreed and was pulled out of the space by her.
Seeing that she was alone in the dungeon, Eleven walked a few steps and turned back, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
【What else? 】
Thinking that he had forgotten to pass on something, Xiao Ruyu asked in confusion.
Eleven opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing. He only told her to be careful and left quickly.
Looking at Eleven's stern expression, Xiao Ruyu scratched his head.
Why can't I see through him anymore...
After leaving the dungeon, Eleven attacked the gatekeeper from behind, knocked him to the ground with one move, and then quickly rushed to where Doctor Yang lived.
The night wind was blowing, piercing his body with a chill, but he did not dare to delay for a moment.
Whenever I thought of Xiao Ruyu staying alone in the dark and damp dungeon, my heart felt like someone was pulling it tightly.
When they arrived at where Doctor Yang lived, Eleven squatted in the grass and imitated the chirping of a cricket.
“Chirp…chirp…”
The seemingly chaotic and disorderly calls actually contain a mystery.
After a while, a dim candlelight came on in the room. With the creaking sound of the wooden door, a dark shadow sneaked out.
"Hey! What are you doing up in the middle of the night?!"
As luck would have it, just as Doctor Yang was about to close the door, he suddenly heard the voice of a patrolman behind him.
He forced himself to calm down, turned around and gave a forced smile.
"Go to the toilet."
"Go ahead." The patrolman waved his hand to let him go with some disgust, then turned around to patrol in the opposite direction.
Doctor Yang breathed a sigh of relief, moved to the bushes, and said anxiously, "Eleven, didn't you go to rescue the little princess? How is the situation?"
Eleven lowered his voice to a very low level and recounted Xiao Ruyu's words one by one.
"The little princess said that there is a witchcraft cult behind the Lu family, and the leader is the talented young man who was driven out of Miaojiang."
Doctor Yang was also very surprised when he heard the news. After confirming it again and again, he fell into deep thought.
"In this case, we must not alert the enemy."
"It will take a few days for the imperial court's reinforcements to arrive, and Master will need to lead the way for them to come in."
Doctor Yang sighed softly, feeling depressed when he thought of Xiao Ruyu who was still in the dungeon.
"It's unfair to the little princess."
"Master." Eleven suddenly spoke up, mentioning that he wanted to go back to the dungeon. "How about Eleven go to the dungeon to accompany the little princess, and when Master brings the officers and soldiers here, I can also bring the little princess back safely."
Doctor Yang hesitated for only a moment and then nodded.
Inside the dungeon.
Xiao Ruyu fiddled with the iron railings out of boredom. After all this torment, she no longer felt sleepy.
There was suddenly a rustling noise at the door. She looked up and saw two familiar people walking down.
【Master! Eleven! 】
【Why are you back again? ! 】
She was extremely surprised and reached out across the railing to grab the hand that Doctor Yang offered her.
Seeing Xiao Ruyu staying in this dungeon for several days, Doctor Yang felt unhappy, "Little Princess, Master will leave the mountain today and bring the imperial court reinforcements into the mountain."
"Besides, Mr. Lu is expected to arrive tomorrow, so it's time to close the net."
He held Xiao Ruyu's small palm and made a secret decision.
Xiao Ruyu nodded and told Doctor Yang to be careful.
[Master, this trip is bound to be full of dangers, so you must pay attention to safety.]
He turned his head to look at Eleven beside him and said the same words again.
Eleven stood there in a daze, but was ready to leave, "Little Princess, can Eleven..."
"Stay in the little princess's space and accompany her."
Seeing his frowning brows and worried expression, Xiao Ruyu readily agreed.
[Of course you can, I just happen to be bored. ]
She pulled Eleven to her side and waved at Doctor Yang.
[Then Master, go call for reinforcements quickly and be careful along the way. ]
Doctor Yang looked at the two of them getting close while he himself was alone and couldn't help but complain, "Well, you left your master behind again, didn't you?"
"Little princess, don't you worry that your master will be swallowed by the mountain king on the road?"
Xiao Ruyu stuck out her tongue playfully.
[Master is more powerful than the mountain king. I believe that Master will come back safely.]
"Okay, okay." Doctor Yang waved his hand with a wry smile and prepared to leave.
"Then wait for Master to return with his soldiers to encircle and wipe out the remnants of the Lu family!"
