Chapter 16 Fluffy Little Bunny
The breeze blew through Horn's hair, blowing a few drops of coolness onto his neck, and slowly slid down along the raised scars.
In the eerie silence, the sound of metal friction when Horn drew out his sword was extremely loud.
Looking back at Jeanne, she covered her mouth and did not dare to move, but her eyes were still clear.
Fortunately, Jeanne was not affected. If something happens, you can just "Let Jeane help me".
After waiting for a second, he saw that the group of people were still swaying slowly in the fog. Horn immediately stepped forward and came to the vicinity of Jeshka. Regardless of whether he could wake up the sleepwalker, he stepped up and shouted loudly.
“Jeshka!”
Jeshka, who was still swaying in place like a sleepwalker, was shocked all over, and the confusion in her eyes disappeared, and then her eyes widened in hindsight. Eyes, cold sweat condensed on his forehead at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As if there was some chain reaction, several young men nearby woke up.
But they were not as calm as Jeshka, and they were so frightened that they screamed.
"Quack, it's the Pied Piper in Green, back away!"
"Quack, it must be the Pied Piper who blew us into unconsciousness. Maybe he wants to force us to be his slaves!"< br>
Before Horn could say anything, Father Cosset jumped out and slapped each of the yelling people hard: "What's the point of having such an easy imagination? I didn't see the saint grandson and the saint." Are you here, sir?”
Horn looked at Father Cosset, who was maintaining order, and sighed.
Poor parents in the world, even though they vaguely guessed that Horn was a fake saint grandson, Father Cosset, who was somewhat uncooperative, showed extraordinary positivity in this matter.
But it has been more than ten years, and there is little hope.
Wait a minute, Horn suddenly realized. The villagers took it for granted that Horn was not controlled because he was the grandson of the Holy Saint.
The reason Jeanne was not affected by the Pied Piper is because she is the king of demons and ghosts, an authentic dog devil, and it is normal for a little Pied Piper to be exempted.
But how did I get rid of it? Is it because he held Jeanne's hand?
Before Horn could think clearly, he heard someone shout again: "Hey, what are you doing? Where are you going?"
A skinny boy of fourteen or fifteen years old walked into the stream at some point and walked forward as if there was no one else around.
In the previous screams, almost all the people who were in a trance woke up, but this young man did not react at all, and in the end he even just walked forward regardless.
The companions on the side crossed over the others and tried to pull him away, but Horn stopped him with one hand: "Don't call him, find a rope and tie it around his waist, and see where he goes."< br>
Grabbing Jeanne's hand again, Horn whispered: "Jeanna, please pay attention. Once there is any abnormal situation, don't hesitate to take action directly. Don't be afraid of accidental injury. This is to get rid of the demon." "My mother will forgive you."
Leading him with a rope, the boy moved forward in the stream, while Horn and others followed him on the bank.
After walking for a while, the trees on both sides became sparser and sparse, and the terrain gradually became higher. Horn and others finally came to a mountain wall.
The open space in front of the mountain wall clearly shows traces of manual felling. The nearby trees have been uprooted, leaving large and small earth bags and pits, and only a few gray-black rocks remain.
On the mountain wall, vines hang down like door curtains, but you can still see the dark hole inside through the gaps in the vines.
The melodious flute sound came from the entrance of this cave.
Compared to before, due to the close distance, the sound of the flute is much clearer.
It seems that the Pied Piper is in the cave.
The bewildered villagers were tied to a tree, and the young men gathered in front of the cave.
"Boss Jeshka, look, rabbit!" A young refugee shouted pointing forward. In front of the mountain wall, three fluffy little white rabbits were gnawing on the grass leisurely.
The nearest one is seven or eight steps away.
This is so rare. They searched for more than half a day in the forest and couldn't even find rabbit excrement. There was actually one here.
Unable to suppress his joy, the young refugee took out his longbow and shot an arrow at the rabbit after he finished shouting, without waiting for anyone else to respond.
This opportunity cannot be missed, time will never come again, let them run away or dig into a hole, and you don’t know when you can catch them.
"Thump--" The sound of the bowstring still echoed in my ears, and the arrow cut through the air and headed straight for the white rabbit.
The tip of the arrow shone with cold light, and it was about to penetrate into the soft fur of the white rabbit and pierce its blood vessels and heart. However, in the blink of an eye, the rabbit jumped up on the spot, its powerful hind limbs He kicked the wooden arrow shaft and sent the wooden arrow flying straight away.
Before everyone could feel sorry, the white rabbit jumped up again the moment it landed. This time everyone felt that something was wrong.
Too fast, the white rabbit jumped up too fast. It seemed to be flying at low altitude, turned into a ray of white light, and flew into the archer's face.
"Ah——" A sharp scream came from the archer's mouth. He reached out to grab the white rabbit's ears, but he couldn't pull it alive.
The long curved claws stretched out from the delicate down, pierced the archer's skin and flesh, and clamped his collarbone.
The three-petal mouth opened, and its jagged fangs quickly bit open the archer's throat, sucking the archer's blood.
Jeshka drew the bow like lightning and shot an arrow, but the white rabbit kicked the archer's chest gracefully.
With the help of a backflip, he not only dodged the arrow, but the long claws of his forelimbs also cut off the archer's head entirely.
The majestic bloody gas exploded instantly, and the rising blood column fell to the ground like a fountain, dyeing the water mist red. The snow-white rabbit fur was stained with scarlet blood, which condensed into small points at the ends of the fur.
At this moment, the red eyes are staring closely at this group of uninvited guests.
“Hey, it’s a monster, retreat quickly!”
"Hey, that monster bit us to death, maybe to force our souls to be his slaves!"
"Why are you two again!?"
Looking at what's in front of you White Rabbit, Horn was not in a hurry. He slowly took out the long sword from his waist, raised his chin, and pointed the tip of the sword at it.
Seeing Horn's provocation, the white rabbit's beastly face showed no expression at all.
It's hind legs suddenly tightened and it jumped up again. In a blink of an eye, a white light rushed in front of it.
"Master Holy Sunson, be careful!"
"Hurry and protect Master Holy Sunson!"
With his body motionless, Horn smiled proudly: "The call is coming!"
In Huo Behind En, a bolt of lightning exploded instantly.
The electric light pierced the sky and struck hard on the body of the white rabbit. The dazzling white light kept flashing, making the originally dark forest a little brighter.
When everything returned to normal, the white rabbit, which exuded the tempting smell of meat, had fallen to the ground, and its hind legs were still twitching.
Horn returned the sword to its sheath gracefully. Horn did not look at the fallen monster. He smoothed his hair that was blown by the wind with his hands: "It's just a monster... let Na help me!"
Two electric arcs pierced the sky again, shooting down the other two magic rabbits that were flying and jumping.
Patting the grass blades and dirt on his knees, Horn climbed up from the ground awkwardly.
After coughing twice, he put on a serious face: "Jeanna, my saint and knight, I order you to immediately clear out these rabbit monsters and kill these devil's servants!"
"I obey your order, my lord."
"And you, please clean up the body of this brave archer."
"I obey, Lord Saint Sunzi."< br>
For almost three minutes, there was lightning and thunder in the open space in front of the mountain wall, and the air was filled with the faint smell of lightning and the aroma of meat.
While Jeanne was cleaning up the magic rabbit, Horn was still thinking about the villager who was lured away by the sound of the flute in the first place.
If the magic rabbits were blocking the entrance of the cave, his body should be on the ground now, but the footprints extended all the way to the entrance of the cave.
Why wasn’t the person who was blown away by the flute attacked? Where did these magic rabbits come from? Is the Pied Piper raising these rabbits?
Putting aside these doubts for the time being, Horn walked up to the eight magic rabbits that had been electrocuted.
There were four adults and four children in total, and the whole family was neatly exuding a faint smell of meat, which made many people's stomachs growl.
This kind of monster meat is very expensive, even equivalent to gold.
Knights can speed up the process of knight breathing by taking this kind of monster flesh and blood. Wizards need these monster flesh and blood to perform ritual magic. Even priests need this kind of flesh and blood to refine the ingredients of the holy ointment.
Stepping over these killer rabbits, Horn came to the mountain wall and looked up at the cave in front of him.
He originally wanted to use Jeanne's electric light to lure the possible "Pied Piper" out, but there has been no movement in the cave so far.
You can really keep your composure.
The Pied Piper can keep his composure, but Father Cosset can't sit still.
As if he was afraid that someone would run away, he jumped out voluntarily. After obtaining Horn's consent, he strode in with a butcher's knife.
The sharp butcher's knife was waved on the vines, and the vines at the entrance of the cave were split, and the scene inside was finally revealed to everyone.
"This, this is..."
This, this is——
No one can believe their eyes.
In the cave behind the vines, there are several large bloody characters carved on the wall:
"Please recommend"
"Please collect"
