War Concubine Mad Emperor

Chapter 87
The woman's laughter heard earlier has disappeared, but that weird atmosphere is always around.

"Girl will rest here tonight, and the poor will call you again tomorrow morning."

With a triumphant smile on his face, the goatee priest took Ziluan to the guest room and closed the door.

"Ming'er, you've driven for half a day, are you exhausted? Have a snack to fill your belly!"

Ziluan took out the prepared dry food and water and handed them to Xiao Cangming.

"Mother, Ming'er is not tired, I lied to that person."

Xiao Cangming shook his head, with a sly look on his face.

"This Taoist temple is full of smog, not a good place."

Ziluan held the handle of the knife in her hand, and the thin blade picked apart the candle wicks placed on the table.The blade made of sterling silver was covered with thick black.Presumably, if she subconsciously lit a candle when she entered the room, the poison in the candle would stun them unconsciously.

"Mother, there is a strong evil spirit here, presumably there are monsters rampant. But Ming'er smelled a very pure spiritual energy, there are spiritual things in this Zixiao Temple."

Xiao Cangming said in a serious voice with a soft and waxy voice.He was transformed by Qinglong, with an extremely sensitive sense of smell and a keen sense of aura.A spiritual thing that can make him feel good is definitely not an ordinary thing.

"Ming'er came in because he took a fancy to that spiritual creature!"

Ziluan smiled slightly, looking at his strange appearance, it is really lovely.

"Last time my mother gave Xueyun fruit to Ming'er, so Ming'er has to give her a gift too!"

Xiao Cangming said in a childish voice, his little face was full of admiration and dependence.

His mother treated him so well, and he wanted to repay his mother.

He wants to find all kinds of spiritual treasures in the world and give them to his mother!

Hearing Cang Ming's words, Ziluan felt warm in her heart.Having such a lovely son is the best gift God has given her!
"Ming'er, let's eat! We'll have the energy to find Lingbao when we're full! Now that we've met it, wouldn't it be a pity if we didn't go and see it!"

Ziluan gently stroked Xiao Cangming's head, her soft hair was very comfortable to the touch.

Xiao Cangming half-closed his eyes in enjoyment, with a sweet satisfied smile on his face.

"Mother, where do we find it? This Taoist temple is so big! I think that monster seems to be after the spirit treasure, and I'm afraid that the spirit treasure has already been taken."

He leaned against Ziluan, looked up at her, and asked curiously.

"Why do we need to look for them? Sooner or later they will come to our door by themselves. We just need to eat and drink enough, and then rest."

Ziluan took out a candle, lit the candle, then sat down with Xiao Cangming and had a snack.

The Taoist priest who was guarding not far away was relieved to see the light of candles lit up in their room, but he also felt a little regretful.

Not long after, a few Taoist priests quietly opened the door, and seeing Ziluan and Xiao Cangming fainted on the table, they immediately wrapped them in sackcloth bags and took them out of the room.

"Oh, I really don't know when this day will end?"

A Taoist priest was carrying a big sack, with a look of helplessness on his face.

"Shh-"

Another fat Taoist hurriedly made a silent movement, looked around for a while, and then gave a warning in a low voice.

"Disaster comes from your mouth, don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, if you are overheard, you and I will have to play!"

"Let's go! With this girl, there are already thirty girls this month. That one should be satisfied."

The two walked quickly towards a firewood room, where many girls were imprisoned, all crying, looking very pitiful.

"Let us out!"

"Good job, two Taoist priests, let us go!"

"We are all girls from a good family!"

"..."

The cries of the girls made the faces of the two Taoists not very good-looking. They also felt irritable when they heard the cries of the crowd.

But let them go, and they will die.In the face of life and death, they can only harden their hearts and act against their conscience.

They put Ziluan and Xiao Cangming down and put them in the cell together.Then he hurried out, not wanting to stay here for long.

"Another poor man."

A girl saw Ziluan being arrested, and said sympathetically.

"They didn't even spare such a small child!"

The other girl saw that Xiao Cangming was also arrested, and said angrily.

"These people really are like snakes and scorpions!"

"Our life is too bitter, how could we meet these beasts!"

The girls cried again, the moon could be seen from the cell, and tonight was the night of the full moon again.

They remembered that every night of the full moon, a few good-looking girls would be taken away, and then they were never seen again.

From the mouths of those Taoist priests, they vaguely guessed that something happened to those girls.

Tonight is another full moon night, and an ominous haze hangs over everyone's heart.

Ziluan slowly opened her eyes, she didn't pass out all the way, she just pretended to be unconscious so as to figure out what these people were going to do.

She was also a little surprised to see so many young girls imprisoned in the dungeon.

"Sister, you are awake."

A plain-looking commoner woman saw Ziluan wake up, came over and said with concern.

"Where is this? Why am I here?"

Ziluan hugged Xiao Cangming and asked suspiciously.She wanted to find out the situation of the Taoist Temple from these people.

"Sister, you and we are both poor people who were killed by those unscrupulous Taoist priests. This is a secret prison in Zixiao Temple, where everyone is imprisoned. Every night when the moon is full, the girl The five with the best looks will all be taken away."

The commoner woman whispered to Zi Luan, tonight is the night of the full moon, and those people will come to choose candidates soon.

"Sister, you look so good-looking, quickly smear the mud on your face, or you will be doomed!"

"Thank you for the reminder! What's my sister's name, and how did she get caught here?"

Seeing that the girl had a good heart, Ziluan asked.

"My name is Xiao Xin'er, and I live in Raging Flame City. I was the eldest daughter of my family, but my parents were framed and I was expelled to Raging Flame City. I heard that there is a Taoist priest with excellent medical skills in Zixiao Temple, and I want to invite him Treating my mother's illness, but unexpectedly encountered this catastrophe."

Xiao Xin'er wiped her tears, she was originally the young lady of the Xiao family, she was extremely talented.But he mistrusted his cousin Xiao E, and that's why he ended up in such a situation.The mother was poisoned, the father died of hatred, and the position of the head of the family fell into the hands of the vicious uncle.
