Miaoben and Jueyu finally came back with a few dead vines.
Jueyu asked: "How are you?"
Qu Le glanced at the two of them with difficulty, and said in a dying voice: "I think I can save him a little more."
Miaoben and Jueyu connected several vines and hoisted one end into the pit. They worked together to pull Qule out of the pit.
After finally climbing out of the pit, Qu Le seemed to have found some motivation to survive. She grabbed Miao Ben's coat sleeves and followed him unsteadily on the way. The three of them couldn't walk in the snow-capped mountains.
After who knows how long, just when their bodies reached the limit of overdraft, they actually saw a small house with dim yellow lights in the gray sky!
Thank God, they finally saw a little hope of living!
They staggered up to the small house. It was two stories high, made of large adobe bricks, and had a thick thatch roof. It looked very shabby, but in the eyes of the three of them, it was already comparable to heaven.
What a wonderful place!
The most important thing is that there is an angry lantern hanging under the eaves outside the house, with the words "Qiao's Inn" written on it.
There is actually an inn in such a deserted wilderness where no one can be seen? This is unscientific, no matter how you think about it!
But Qu Le, Miao Ben and Jue Yu can't think too much now. Their top priority is how to survive tonight and live peacefully.
Miao Ben stepped forward and knocked on the door.
The door was pushed open from the inside, and a plainly dressed peasant woman came out. She first glanced at Miao Ben in surprise, wondering how a monk could appear here. After listening to Miao Ben's explanation of his purpose, she became friendly.
Smile: "There is only our family living in the area of more than ten miles around here. Fortunately you found this place, otherwise you would have slept in the wilderness tonight. Come on, please come in, I will boil a kettle for you right away."
Tea to warm you up!”
Miaoben, Jueyu and Qule walked into the inn one after another. A brazier was burning in the room, and the warm breath hit their faces.
The three of them greedily felt this rare warmth. They didn't even move a stool, but sat directly on the ground next to the brazier, leaning against the brazier to keep warm. Their faces were all filled with enjoyment.
The peasant woman came back with three large bowls of steaming tea. The three of them drank one bowl each. After swallowing the hot tea, their bodies suddenly became warm.
After self-introduction, it turned out that this peasant woman's original surname was Wang. Later, after marrying Qiao Laoba, she changed her name to Qiao Wang.
Not long after, Qiao Laobao came down from upstairs. He just went upstairs to repair the roof. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, there were three more guests in his inn. He was tall and tall, with dark skin.
He has thick eyebrows, big eyes, a square forehead and a square face, and looks very honest.
Qiao Laobao looked expressionless. He said hello to the guests and went into the kitchen to work.
Mrs. Qiao Wang said with a smile: "I'm sorry, my boss doesn't like to talk. I usually make noises when I see strangers. Don't mind me."
Qu Le waved her hands quickly: "It's okay, men who don't like to talk are very calm and reliable, which is pretty good."
Qiao Laobao's attitude was very cold, but his cooking skills were unexpectedly good. He made three vegetarian dishes. As soon as they were served, he was so hungry that Qu Le, Miao Ben and Jue Yu all ate them up.
Lao Ba had to go to the kitchen to improvise two more dishes and a large pot of hot soup.
After eating and drinking, Qu Le, Miao Ben and Jue Yu went upstairs to sleep and rest.
At the same time, deep in the snow mountain forest, in a deep cave, the snow mountain wolves came back with a fresh living person who had just been hunted outside. This fresh living person was none other than the missing bearded uncle.
The female wolves welcomed their return in a very warm atmosphere, but they did not eat the human directly, but dragged him deep into the cave and sacrificed him to the highest-ranking alpha wolf in the wolf pack... a
A young man with an almost suffocatingly handsome appearance.
He is Qu Lang.
At first, he ran far away to chase the man in black. When he followed the scent and returned to the inn, he found that Qu Le had disappeared. Ignoring the persuasion of Lan Li and others, he left the group alone and began to search for Qu Le along the road.
When he was passing through the snowy mountain forest, he saw a hunter preparing to attack a lone snowy mountain wolf cub. At the critical moment, Qu Lang took action to save the cub's life and returned it to the wolf pack.
With a natural admiration for the strong, the Snow Mountain wolves were quickly tamed by Qu Lang and collectively elected him as the new alpha wolf.
Qu Lang originally didn't want to be this alpha wolf, but the snow mountain wolves were so enthusiastic that they dragged him and refused to let him leave. They also tried their best to hunt all kinds of fresh meat and delicacies for him. They even set their sights on human flesh.
Uncle Beard became their first victim.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Qu Lang saw the bearded uncle, he smelled a familiar scent from him.
That is the warm breath that belongs to music.
Qu Lang was in a very excited mood. He grabbed the unconscious bearded uncle and sniffed him. Although there was only a subtle smell, he still keenly caught it.
It's really her!
Qu Lang rudely woke up Uncle Beard and asked him if he had met a girl named Qu Le before. Uncle Beard recalled it tremblingly for a long time, and finally replied cautiously: "I haven't."
Qu Lang frowned and asked again dissatisfied: "Are you sure?"
Uncle Beard had to recall it carefully: "I only met a little nun named Wukong, who was followed by two other monks, but I really never saw the girl named Qule."
Wukong? Qu Lang doesn't know him, but those smells don't deceive people. Could it be that the bearded man in front of him is deceiving him? Qu Lang narrowed his eyes and exuded a dangerous aura: "You tell what happened in the past two days from beginning to end.
I’ll say it again.”
The bearded uncle didn't dare to disobey, so he started to narrate tremblingly...
In the guest room on the second floor of the inn, Qu Le was sleeping drowsily. She suddenly felt someone opening the door. Who would come looking for her in the middle of the night?
Qu Le woke up immediately. She opened the quilt and sat up. She lifted the bed curtain and looked outside. She saw a tall figure quietly walking into the room. Although it was pitch dark at night and could only vaguely see a figure, Qu Le still caught a glimpse of it.
Then she recognized that the person who sneaked into her room was none other than Qiao Laoba.
Qu Le instinctively sensed something was wrong, and decided to stand still until she didn't know the other party's purpose.
She immediately fell back on the bed and covered herself with the quilt and continued to pretend to be asleep. She took out the purple bamboo tube and dagger from the bundle beside the pillow, and hid them all in her sleeves. In the blink of an eye, Qiao Laoba gently walked to the bed and reached out to lift them.
When he saw Qu Le "sleeping" at the bed tent, his expression was very calm. Without any extra movement, he directly reached out to lift Qu Le up from the bed and tied her up with a rope.
They had just been tied up. Mrs. Qiao Wang walked in quickly. She changed her previous enthusiastic look, and there was a shrewd look in her brows. At first glance, she felt that she was not easy to deal with.
She glanced at Qu Le who was tied up by Wu Hua Da: "The amount of medicine used in the meal this time is relatively large. Get rid of them quickly before they wake up."
Qiao Laoba's voice was very dull: "That fat monk is covered in fat. It will take a lot of effort to transport him. It's better to kill him now and make human meat buns."
As the saying goes, a dog that bites doesn't bark. This guy looks honest and honest, but he turns out to be very evil inside.
"I'll leave that fat monk to you. This little nun and that little monk will be sold back to Boss Chui. Both of them look good and should be sold for a good price," Qiao Wang said, Xu thought of making money.
In the money scene, I raised the corners of my mouth and smiled happily.
Qiao Laobao nodded: "After we finish this work, let's move to another place. It's no longer peaceful here."
As if she thought of something, the smile on Mrs. Qiao Wang's face faded a little: "I didn't expect that the weather in the snowy area would change so quickly. I'm afraid our days in the future won't be easy..."
After the two of them added up, Qiao Laoba put the "sleeping" Qu Le on his shoulders and strode out of the room behind Qiao Wang. They came to the guest room next door. Qiao Lao Ba put down Qu Le and took advantage of his back to turn around.
When she was standing, Qule opened her eyes slightly and quickly glanced around through the slits. She saw that Miaoben and Jueyu were also tied up and thrown next to her. They both seemed to have really fallen asleep.
, couldn't wake up for a while.
It seems that they really encountered a black shop this time...
Qu Le cried silently in her heart for her own character. It was so unlucky that she would encounter the evil boss and his wife at any inn in the wild!
"You stay here and watch the three of them. I'll go outside and notify Boss Chui to pick up the goods." After saying that, Qiao Wang turned around and left.
Qiao Laobao took out a machete from nowhere and started sharpening it at the door of the room. He planned to kill the fat monk first later.
Meat is enough to make hundreds of large meat buns.
Qu Le took off her coat when she went to bed and wore only a white shirt. Sitting on the ground now, she felt that it was getting colder and colder.
Taking advantage of the fact that Qiao Laoba was alone now, she quickly found an opportunity to escape! Qu Le slipped out the dagger from her sleeve and quietly cut the rope. After gaining freedom, she did not stand up immediately, but moved her fingers.
The black spider fell from her finger to the ground, then swung its eight long legs and ran quickly towards Qiao Laoba.
When it climbed up Qiao Laoba's shoulder without anyone noticing, it quietly approached his neck and took a bite on his neck.
Feeling a slight sting, Qiao Laoba immediately reached out to cover his neck and pressed twice on the stinging area with his fingers. He didn't touch anything strange. He frowned. Could it be that the sting just now was just an illusion?
He touched his neck twice more to make sure there were no wounds or other symptoms. He temporarily forgot about this trivial matter and continued sharpening his knife to the monk, preparing to cook a feast of human flesh.
Xiao Hei is a fighter among poisons, and there is no doubt about its toxicity. After a while, Qiao Laoba fell softly. He even didn't know what happened to him after he fell, and his face was confused and stunned.
