Chapter 1082: A banquet for tens of thousands of people
Chapter 1,082 A banquet for tens of thousands of people
The square-faced man trembled in fright, and then he quickly continued, "Although no one has ever expressed it publicly, it would definitely be uncomfortable for anyone to do this to."
"Actually, I can also feel that on the surface, people here are respectful to the ancestor, but in fact, they don't respect him that much in their hearts."
"The thirty-six caves here add up to tens of thousands of people. In fact, they are all servants sent by the ancestors. The ancestors sealed us here. They said it was to protect us, but in fact, they wanted us to become
His servant."
"In addition to selecting the woman with the title of the book to enter the stone tower every year to serve as a medicine furnace for his dual cultivation, the ancestor is said to have to select a few people to offer him blood every month in order to practice a skill that can prolong life."
"Although everyone may have resentment towards him in their hearts, at least they still have to behave respectfully on the surface and obey his words."
Gu Zhenghai frowned and asked again, "What state of cultivation has the ancestor you mentioned reached?"
The square-faced man shook his head and said, "I really don't know about this. I only know that my ancestor has achieved something through cultivation, but I'm afraid no one can tell exactly what state he has reached. But I once accidentally heard someone mention it, saying that my ancestor was at this time.
My cultivation level has probably reached the semi-immortal realm."
"But that's just hearsay. I'm not sure about the specifics. Not to mention understanding the ancestor's cultivation. He stays in the stone tower all day long and rarely shows up. I've only seen him once in the long time I've been here, and here
Most people never met him even once."
"The things he needs are sent to the stone tower by a few people he designated, and those people were all made deaf and mute by the ancestors using a technique, and they are not allowed to have contact with any of us, so we
In fact, we know very little about our ancestors.”
Gu Zhenghai gritted his teeth in anger, "This old bastard is broken to the core. Let me ask you again, how are you going to conduct the sacrifice ceremony later?"
The square-faced man replied, "It's almost like getting married, except that the scene is much larger. There is a large open space next to the stone tower that can accommodate tens of thousands of people."
"At that time, everyone in the Thirty-sixth Cave, regardless of their position, can go there to participate in the banquet. It is a group of people eating and drinking, and then when the time comes, they will bring the medicine stove in."
After hearing this, Gu Zhenghai cursed and said, "Fuck, this old bastard is quite particular. This is just a large-scale concubinage ceremony."
After speaking, he turned to look at Yang Xuandao, "Brother Yang, do you have anything else to say?"
Yang Xuan stepped forward, looked at the square-faced man and asked, "Except for the old monster you mentioned, do you have many masters here? Is there no one who can compete with that old monster?"
The square-faced man replied, "There are masters in the thirty-six caves, and the ancestor will also give us some skills."
"However, there are only a few cave masters who have reached the Grand Master level. They are not even close to the semi-immortal realm of our ancestors, let alone who can compare with our ancestors."
"However, there are quite a few people at the Grandmaster and Junior Grandmaster levels. The total number is estimated to be several hundred."
"Then each cave has its own warriors, ranging from two to three hundred to thousands. These warriors are almost all first-grade warrior cultivators."
"Those like us who have no foundation to become martial cultivators can only serve as the lowest servants and have the lowest status in this valley."
Yang Xuan stared at the other person's eyes for a few seconds, and after confirming that the other person was not lying, he asked, "Do you guys from the Thirty-Six Caves know each other?"
The square-faced man replied, "Except for the cave master and a few other relatively high-status people, we don't know each other."
"The ancestor has issued a ban and we are not allowed to travel before the thirty-sixth hole. I guess he is afraid that we will unite to deal with him."
"So we don't know each other. We can only sit together and drink and eat meat during the annual sacrificial ceremony."
"At that time, you can be unrestrained and talk to whoever you want, but after the banquet is over, you won't be able to interact with each other."
After hearing this, Yang Xuan asked again, "Are there any rules for seating at the banquet?
For example, people in the same cave must sit in designated areas."
The square-faced man shook his head and said, "That's not true. Except for the cave master and other higher-level people who have designated seats, the rest of the people are sitting around."
"And every time we offer sacrifices, we almost never sit with people from our own caves, because this is the only time every year that we can interact with people other than our own caves, and everyone wants to chat with people from other caves, picture
A fresh feeling.”
After hearing this, Yang Xuan nodded, "Yes, I understand. You are very honest."
The square-faced man still looked a little worried, "You have to keep your word. You must keep this matter a secret from me."
Gu Zhenghai nodded and said, "Don't worry, I keep my word. Since I promised to keep it a secret for you, I will definitely do it."
After finishing speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and struck the opponent's neck with a sharp strike.
There was just a crunching sound of bones breaking, and the square-faced man tilted his head, fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, and lost his breath in an instant.
"I promised to keep it a secret for you and I will do it, but I never said I would spare your life."
Gu Zhenghai said lightly to the body of the square-faced man, then looked at each other and Yang Xuan, and the two began to take off the clothes of the square-faced man and the round-faced man and put them on themselves.
The reason why Yang Xuan asked about the details of this banquet just now was because he wanted to know if there was any chance of sneaking in.
At this time, we don’t know where Green Peony is, and many things are still unclear. In addition to the old monster, there are tens of thousands of people in the valley, so we must not act rashly.
The best way is to first find a way to sneak into the banquet, and then act accordingly.
Since the square-faced man said that the people in the thirty-six caves did not know each other, and they would not sit with the people in his own cave when the time came, this was a tailor-made opportunity to sneak in.
Because the people here have been sequestered for a long time, their clothes are different from those outside. Although Yang Xuan and Gu Zhenghai’s clothes are nothing special, you can tell at a glance that they are coming from outside, so they must change into
The clothes here.
After Yang Xuan and Gu Zhenghai changed their clothes, they walked out of the woods as if nothing had happened, and then walked forward along a road.
There were many people passing by on the road, but no one noticed anything about them.
The two followed a group of people and easily arrived at the place where the sacrificial ceremony was held, and also saw the stone tower.
This is a particularly large open space, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people dining here at the same time.
Although it was still relatively early at this time, the seats were already more than half full.
Yang Xuan and Gu Zhenghai chose a relatively unobtrusive table and sat down. After a while, two young women came to the same table and asked enthusiastically, "Hello, which cave are you from?
Can you sit here?"
The two women looked to be about twenty years old. Because there were no external maintenance conditions here, their skin looked a bit rough and their appearance was not good-looking. One was as swollen as a ball, and the other had a pretty good figure, but she had a wide face.
He had a big, big face, and his face was densely covered with pockmarks.
At first glance, it reminds people of sesame pancakes.
