Chapter 280 Tribal Taboo
Ou Ruoling also felt that something was wrong, she looked around and found that they were surrounded by crowds.

They didn't even notice when these people appeared!

"Zixi, why are they looking at us like this?" Ou Ruoling couldn't help hiding behind Ou Zixi.

She turned into a little woman in front of him, and she felt chills in her back when she faced the menacing eyes of these tribal people.

"Don't be afraid, let's go back." Ou Zixi took Ou Ruoling's hand and walked forward.

The people in the tribe immediately formed a circle to surround them.

"Come on, arrest him." A man who looked like a tribal leader raised his scepter and ordered.

Several strong men walked towards Ou Zixi immediately.

"Wait, what the hell is going on? Why is it targeting us?" Ou Zixi felt very strange that they hadn't disturbed them at all these days.

"You two foreign invaders have broken the peace of the tribe." The tribe leader pointed to Ou Zixi.

"What's going on?" Ou Zixi was at a loss.

Several strong men have approached Ou Zixi step by step, Ou Ruoling and Ou Zixi back to back did not know what to do.

"The things in this temple are the sacrifices of our tribe, and they play a vital role in the future development and survival of the whole tribe. How dare you steal it away."

The tribal leader finally told the reason.

"He said we stole things? No way, did he make a mistake? You are the president of the Oushi Group. How could you steal their things?"

A black line descended vertically from Ou Ruoling's head.

"This is in the tribe. They don't know my identity at all, and their thinking is a bit feudal and superstitious." Ou Zixi said in a voice that only two people could hear.

"Then what should we do now? Are we going to be arrested by them?" Ou Ruoling asked.

"The body is not afraid of the shadow tilting, just let them search. Look at the resistance of so many people here, I am afraid it will be useless."

Ou Zixi didn't intend to go shopping with this group of people, because he couldn't be their opponent.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Ou Ruoling said.

Ou Zixi immediately discussed with the tribal leaders, if they can't find anything on them, they must let them go.

The tribal leader agreed, and Ou Zixi was the first to be searched.

A man came over and searched him. Ou Zixi's cold eyes followed the man's hands non-stop.

"We found it." The man took out a jade pendant carved with a dragon from Ou Zixi's pocket.

Ou Zixi frowned tightly, he didn't know why this jade pendant appeared on him.

"Zixi, what's going on?" Ou Ruoling panicked.

"This dress was hanging outside last night. I didn't know there was this jade pendant inside." Ou Zixi explained.

While they were discussing, everyone except the tribal leader had already knelt down.

They knelt down out of respect for this jade pendant.

"This is probably the treasure of their tribe." Ou Zixi had already guessed it.

"What else can you say?" The tribal leader asked Ou Zixi with a jade pendant in his hand.

Ou Zixi knew that it was useless to explain to them at this time, the most important thing now was not to implicate Ou Ruoling.

"The jade pendant was found from me, so just catch me alone. It has nothing to do with her."

"Zixi, I don't want to leave. If we want to leave, we will go together." Ou Ruoling didn't intend to leave alone.

The seriousness of the situation can be seen from the reverence these people have for a jade pendant.

"One of us is free, at least I still have the hope of being rescued. Listen to me and find Doctor Lu, maybe he can help." Ou Zixi persuaded.

After understanding his intention, Ou Ruoling immediately stepped aside, watching helplessly as Ou Zixi was taken away by several men.

She immediately ran back to Miracle Lu's house, which was half an hour away from Miracle Lu's house.

When she returned to Miracle Lu's house, it was already pouring rain outside.

"Doctor Lu, save Zixi. Zixi was taken away by them." Ou Ruoling said back with her body wet and panting.

Doctor Lu, who was grinding the herbal medicine, stopped immediately and listened to Ou Ruoling explain the whole story.

It turned out that this jade pendant was originally placed in the temple, and this is the most revered treasure of the whole tribe.

This jade pendant is believed in by people in the tribe, and it has never been stolen.

Ou Ruoling and Ou Zixi were strangers in the tribe, so they naturally became the first object of suspicion of the tribe.

What surprised Doctor Lu was how this jade pendant was on Ou Zixi's body.

"I believe that Zixi must have been framed." Ou Ruoling dared to guarantee with her life that Ou Zixi would never do such a thing.

Not only that, she also told Miracle Doctor Lu about Ou Zixi's identity.

"I'm afraid we can only go to Xi Ya for this matter." Miracle Doctor Lu shook his head helplessly.

"Who is West Asia?" Ou Ruoling looked puzzled.

Doctor Lu told Ou Ruoling about the situation when they fell off the cliff, and Xi Ya was Ou Ruoling's savior.

Xi Ya was the favorite girl of the tribal leader's son, and Doctor Lu hoped that through this relationship, she could ask her for help.Hope they can open up.

After Ou Ruoling found out, she immediately followed Miracle Doctor Lu to Xi'an's house, but she stopped on the way.

Because she saw Ou Zixi in the rain.

This was the first time she saw Ou Zixi in such a mess. They tied him to a tree next to the temple with a rope.

Ou Ruoling, who was wearing a bamboo hat, couldn't help crying when she saw this scene.

"Zixi, why did they treat you like this." Ou Ruoling immediately rushed forward.

When she was about to contact Ou Zixi, two men in bamboo hats came over to stop her and pushed her to the ground.

Ou Ruoling fell to the ground, but continued to stand up again.

"Xiao Ling, is that you?" Ou Zixi's weak voice came.

It was raining heavily outside, and Ou Zixi could hardly keep his eyes open.He was beaten by them after they took him away.

With a bruised nose and a swollen face, Ou Zixi lost the image she should have had in the past, and was extremely embarrassed.Seeing Ou Zixi like this, Ou Ruoling felt very distressed.

"It's me, I will definitely find someone to save you." Ou Ruoling knew that now is not the time to act emotionally, she must find West Asia as soon as possible and ask her to help.

"You wait for me." After Ou Ruoling finished speaking, she ran towards the residents by the mountain spring.

Ou Ruoling came to the door of Xi Ya's house and knocked on the door hastily.

The door opened, and the girl who appeared in front of her was Xi Ya in the mouth of Dr. Lu.It's just that when she saw Ou Ruoling, she immediately closed the door.

Ou Ruoling stretched out her hand to block the door.

"I hope you can help me and save my husband." Ou Ruoling begged.

She didn't even realize that her husband said this sentence easily.

"I'm sorry, I can't help you." Xi Ya recognized Ou Ruoling at a glance, and she was reprimanded by the tribe for saving Ou Ruoling.

"Now you are the only one who can help me. You saved me, which means you must be very kind." Ou Ruoling continued.

"Because you stole things that you shouldn't steal, look at the heavy rain outside. This is God's punishment for you."

Siya said and made a prayer gesture.

Ou Ruoling felt helpless, as Ou Zixi said, their thinking was still very feudal.Isn't this rain a common thing?

"We didn't steal this jade pendant, please trust us." Ou Ruoling continued to beg.

"I'm sorry, I really can't help you." Xia broke away from Auruoling's cold hand and closed the door.

It's winter now, and it's already very cold in the valley.In addition, the heavy rain made it even worse, and it was extremely cold.

After Ou Ruoling sought help to no avail, she returned to the temple. If Ou Zixi was frozen to death like this, then she wouldn't be able to live alone.

Just now when she went back to look for Doctor Lu, she learned from him what Ou Zixi had done for him in the past few days.

He could sacrifice his life for himself over and over again, so naturally she wouldn't leave him to live on by himself.

This time, Ou Ruoling completely ignored the obstruction of those two men, even after being thrown to the ground by them again and again, she still stubbornly crawled towards Ou Zixi.

Ou Zixi, who was beaten, was already a little blurred because of the cold, he only knew that he was powerless to protect Xiao Ling at the moment.

"Zixi, I'll be with you tonight." Ou Ruoling insisted that in the end the two men did not continue the stalemate with her. When Ou Ruoling hugged Ou Zixi, they kept kicking her.

"Xiao Ling, leave me alone, go back quickly." Even for the dying Ou Zixi, he used his body to cover her from the two men's kicks towards her.

"Please stop fighting." Ou Ruoling broke down in tears.

The two men ignored her dissuasion and continued to kick him.Ou Ruoling hugged Ou Zixi and wept in the rain.

"Stop it." Xi Ya came over holding an umbrella, and the two men stopped.

The people in the tribe obeyed the tribal leader, and Xi Ya was the wife of the future tribal leader, so they naturally obeyed her.

She had been observing Ou Ruoling and Ou Zixi from a distance just now, and seeing how they depended on each other for life and death, she couldn't help but think of her tortuous love with the tribal leader's son.

At first, their relationship was also opposed by the tribal leader. Later, after encountering a wild animal attack on the mountain, she saved his son with her life, and finally got approval.

And Master Lu, who knew very well about West Asia's emotional experience, took advantage of this similarity to ask Ou Ruoling to find her.

"Xia, you're here." Ou Ruoling saw hope, and at this moment Ou Zixi had passed out.

"I can only do my best, and I can't guarantee whether the leader will let you go." Xi Ya said with a frown.

"What about him?" Ou Ruoling wanted to take Ou Zixi back, but Xi Ya shook her head.

"Punishment is necessary. All the people in the clan think that this heavy rain is Shenyu's punishment for him. So he must spend tonight in the rain. If I can make it through, I will intercede for you tomorrow."

Sia turned and left after finishing speaking.

Facing the ignorant thoughts of these people, Ou Ruoling was really helpless.

But she didn't intend to leave, but hugged Ou Zixi hoping to give him warmth.

Ou Zixi's body was very cold, if this went on for a whole night, he might not be able to survive for an hour.

Looking around, Ou Ruoling pulled Ou Zixi under the eaves of the temple to hide from the rain with all her strength.

The two men guarding Ou Zixi just now did not step forward to stop Ou Ruoling because of Xi Ya's special instructions.

"You have to hold on, you know?" Ou Ruoling hugged him tightly, hoping to give him a little warmth.

But the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, as if it would never stop.It seems that at this moment, Ou Ruoling doesn't see any hope in his eyes.
