Chapter 128 Fire Master

Locke looked at it and found that it was a unique courtyard. Right opposite the door is a row of clean and neat houses, with a large patio in the middle, with green vines climbing on the walls on both sides. On the right side of the patio, there is a tall tree against the wall. Under the tree, there is a stone table, and next to the table sits an old man with crane hair and childish face. This should be the grandpa of the boy.

Lock hurried forward, saluted the old man, and said, "Old man, I'm a foreigner selling masks. I'm new to the treasure land. I'm begging for a bowl of water to drink. I'm disturbing you!"

"Grandpa, my brother gave me a mask. Look, it's so beautiful!" The boy showed the mask to Grandpa.

"Good, good grandson, you go play first. Grandpa wants to greet guests. Don't run away!"

The boy answered and ran out with a mask.

"Young man, please sit down." The old man stood up.

"Old man, please sit down."

Locke sat down. The old man poured him a bowl of water. To be polite, Locke took off his mask.

"Young man, looking at your extraordinary appearance, you must be a nobleman of Wang Qi. The little old man is not well treated, rude and rude!" With that, the old man wanted to stand up and salute.

"Don't, don't, sit down." Locke hurriedly got up and grabbed the old man and said, "I'm not a nobleman. I just passed by and came to find a friend."

"Looking for friends? I don't know the name of your friend? The little old man is familiar with the guards of the palace and may be able to help.

"Thank you so much!"

Locke said the name of the xiao and described his appearance again.

"Well, this..." The old man pondered and said, "Listen to the guest's description, I think there is a man very much like the young man named Xiao you are looking for."

"Do you have it? Can you tell me where he is?

"He is the general of the Rising Sun Empire, but his name is not Xiao, he is called Blood Hunter. A hundred years ago, I was an official with his father.

"Oh, so that's it." Locke was extremely disappointed and thought to himself: It seems that they are just two people with similar looks.

"Old man, are you long? I heard from your grandson that you are hundreds of years old.

"I..." The old man twisted his beard with his hand and said, "I'm 203 years old this year."

"Oh?" Locke was very surprised, "Then you must be full of children and grandchildren?"

Locke looked around, and a large yard actually gave people a feeling of desolation.

"Well, you don't know anything about the guests. Now in this yard, my grandson and I depend on each other, and my son and daughter-in-law are... woo-woo..." The old man actually cried.

"Old man, don't be sad. If there is any difficulty, please tell me. Maybe I can help you." Locke hurriedly comforted the old man.

"Alas, what kind of world is this? The devil is rampant!"

"The devil is rampant? Can you make it more clear?" Locke's face was puzzled.

The old man wiped his tears and said, "Guests don't know that there is a dark night empire in the north of our rising sun empire..."

"Night Empire, what's wrong with the Night Empire?" Locke couldn't help interrupting. He remembered Uncle Suto, who was the lord of the Night Empire and didn't know what happened between the Rising Sun Empire and the Night Empire.

"Alas!" The old man sighed and said, "A hundred years ago, when I was young, I once hunted the blood clan with my father, who died at the hands of the prince of the Dark Night Empire. My son and daughter-in-law have been missing for ten years. Alas, they must have been killed by the blood clan. I lied to my grandson that his parents went out to do business, and the poor grandson didn't know that his parents had been gone for a long time.

The prince of the Night Empire? Locke's heart became uneasy. Suto is his uncle. Lisa said that Uncle Suto has imprisoned himself and never set foot in the world. So who is the prince of the Night Empire now? Is it your own cousin or your own brother? Suddenly, Lisa's words sounded in her ear again, "Your brother is fine now. He is the prince in the dark night castle... My brothers and I live in the East Land, and we work under your brother."

Is it that the brother condoned the blood clan, or became an accomplice of the blood clan and hurt human beings with the blood clan? Alas, maybe the xiao has also fallen into the hands of the blood clan. He has no time to find out which god's spell on Qiu Baishi. He can't let Qiu Bai do anything anymore. It's time to make a decision. Locke's heart was extremely entangled and uneasy.

"Old man, don't be sad. I can help you find out the whereabouts of your missing son and daughter-in-law. Could you please tell me the truth, are the prince of the night empire and the prince of the night castle the same person? Locke still holds a glimmer of hope. How he hopes that his brother has nothing to do with missing human beings.

"Well..." The old man pondered for a while and said, "I don't know. I only know that there are five princes in the Night Empire. Since the emergence of five princes, there has been no peace in the Rising Sun Empire, and people often disappear. Well, when he heard that the prince was also missing, the lord was anxious and sent the general and princess to invite the mage.

Maybe those five princes are my cousins. Alas, Uncle Suto is too indulgent to them.

"Excuse me, old man, I don't know why the lord of the country asked the mage to do?"

"I don't know either. According to my guess, it should be the lord of the country to come to deal with the wizard of the blood clan."

The wizard who dealt with the blood clan? Locke pondered and thought: The blood clan is a demon clan, proficient in magic and illusion. I don't know what skills this wizard can deal with Qiu Bai. Why don't I go to the palace to inquire first?

The old man asked his servants to bring tea and fruits, and Locke chatted with the old man while eating. The old man had a good impression on Locke, so he told Locke everything he knew.

Now Locke can be sure that the man named Blood Hunter is indeed not a eagle. He was ordered by the Lord of the Rising Sun Empire and invited a mage with Princess Dina.

Well, the little princess named Dina is very unruly and almost whipped me in the face. I should really go to pay a visit. The beautiful face covered under the mask showed a bad smile.

Locke said goodbye to the old man and walked to the street. The more you walk into the street, the more people there are, and the fragrance becomes stronger. There are many snack stalls on both sides of the street, and the seductive fragrance goes straight into the nostrils.

Some noble boys and girls are in front of a stall, each holding a string of golden things in their hands, which looks crooked. They chewed and laughed at the same time.

Wow, it smells so good! Locke involuntarily stepped forward and asked the stall owner curiously, "What is this?"

"Oh, this is called roast snake skewers. You are a foreigner, aren't you? Try it. It's very fragrant. If you don't believe it, everyone is eating.

Can this be eaten? Why don't I try it too? Locke asked for a lot and carried more than a dozen strings in each hand. When he paid the bill, he swung to the noble men and women and said, "I'm their bodyguard. Let them pay."

Hey, the snack seller really believes it. Locke was very proud. As he walked, he ate it with relish. It was crispy and refreshing. As he ate it, he couldn't help boasting: "The food in the human world is delicious!"

There are more and more pedestrians on the street, and everyone is running in one direction.

"Go and have a look. The new mage is going to open the altar and prepare to sacrifice to the gods."

"I heard that two beautiful women of the blood clan were caught last night."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. I heard that we still have to sacrifice with living people!"

"Where are you going to see!"

......

People are talking about it.

Blood beauty? No, something happened to Qiu Bai! Locke didn't have time to eat. As soon as he raised his hand, the unfinished snake skewers flew out.

"Who is so immoral! Throw something on my head."

"Oh, my God, my new skirt is oily!"

......

There was a shouting from both sides. Locke couldn't control much. He used his magic, separated the crowd, ran forward, and soon came to the palace. Many people gathered on the three floors outside the square. Locke squeezed to the front.

There is a temple in front of the square, and there is a tall statue standing at the door. You can't tell which god it is. In front of the statue sat some people in gorgeous robes, including the little princess named Dina. Presumably these people are all royal relatives and nobles of the Rising Sun Empire.

"Master, please!" I don't know who shouted. With the sound of "lattering", a man in a gorgeous robe came out. The man has long slightly curly red hair and a red beard, and even his skin is red. His nose collapsed, and his eyes were small, almost all squeezed together. How ugly and ugly it was. There was also a man with red hair beside the mage. Locke was surprised when he looked at the man. The man he had seen was not someone else, but a candle.

It turns out that the mage is from the fire clan, and I'd like to see what they want to play. Locke watched quietly.

"Ala", every step taken by the mage made a sound, and people's eyes were attracted. Locke saw that what made a sound was a black strange thing in the mage's hand, which looked like a scepter or wand, in the shape of "S" and a black skeleton at the top. There is a red bead in the skull's mouth. When it rolls from the edge of the skeleton's teeth into the throat, it makes a "shudling". When it rolls back from the throat, it makes a "shudling" sound, but it will not fall out. It feels really strange.

The mage stopped in front of the altar. It was a rectangular stone platform. At this moment, it was noon, and the hot sunlight just projected on the stone platform.

"The ceremony of sacrificing to the gods begins!" Someone shouted again.

The mage raised the wand in his hand, and his head swayed with the wand. The sound of "crying" was endless.

Locke felt very funny and thought: How could there be such a sacrifice to the gods? It should be a ostentat and a fool. He shook his head so hard and didn't know if he would feel dizzy.

After shaking his head for a while, the mage read the prayer again. Locke understood that it turned out that they were sacrificing the Vulcan. No wonder they were called the Fire Clan. It turned out that the Vulcan was supported behind his back. I heard that Heveistos was sealed by Zeus, and the sealed gods were difficult to protect themselves, so how could he protect them? It's so funny.

"Bring up those two blood demons!" Another shout.

The crowd for a while**.

"Look, look, blood-sucking beauty."

"Vampire Monster!"

"The witch!"

......

People talked about it.

Blood beauty? Locke remembered that Lisa once said that blood clans will turn people into blood clans through the way of "first embrace". It seems that there must be a large number of blood clans. In the eyes of human beings, they have become the target of public criticism.
