There is a desk directly in front of the sacrificial platform, which is filled with tributes.
In front of the desk, a dozen boys wearing Taoist robes sat cross-legged.
These boys clasped their hands together, beat the wooden fish with the other hand, and chanted scriptures in their mouths.
Listening to the content of the scriptures, it feels like I am trying to save others.
Qin Tian was a little curious. Huang Xianren had already planned to sacrifice living people, so why did they go to such great lengths to save living people?
This is like a pig butcher in a slaughterhouse who gives the pigs salvation before killing them.
Qin Tian didn't think Huang Xianren would be so kind.
"Xianren Jiang, what are they doing?" Qin Tian really didn't understand, turned to Jiang Ziya and asked in a low voice.
Jiang Ziya frowned tightly, clenched one hand into a fist, and had a trace of sullenness on his face.
"If I guess correctly, they are doing preparatory death fast."
Practicing the fast of death in advance means to offer salvation to the living people in your family who are about to die.
It was recorded in Journey to the West that the King of Inspiration wanted two children as sacrifices every year. Chen Yuanwai made a preparatory death fast for his two children.
Jiang Ziya continued, "About five or six hundred years ago, there was a demon Taoist who used living people as sacrifices to help him cultivate in order to become an immortal."
"However, although using living people as sacrifices can quickly improve your cultivation level, if you commit too many sins, it will accumulate too much resentment for the cultivator himself."
"Cultivators will be backlashed by resentment if they are not careful, so this demonic Taoist thought of a way at that time. Before the sacrifice, he would do a pre-cultivation fast to save the souls of the dead. This way, he could quickly improve his cultivation level and avoid being attacked.
Resentment comes back."
"In the end, this evil way committed too many evils and was purged by Buddhism. This evil method of cultivation was also permanently banned, and few future generations know about it."
As he spoke, Jiang Ziya paused and said to himself thoughtfully, "This Huang Xianren doesn't seem to be very advanced. How did he know this evil method?"
Qin Tian pondered for a moment and replied, "Could it be that he has some connection with someone from the Buddhist sect?"
"I don't know." Jiang Ziya said with a serious expression, "Maybe when the sacrifices start, we will know the cause and effect."
…
At the same time, in a room in the center of the Taoist temple.
Huang Xianren lit three incense candles and inserted them into the incense burner on the table above. A gourd was enshrined on the table.
He clasped his hands together and bowed to the gourd very devoutly.
"Sir Huangmei, thanks to your guidance, I have achieved my current level of moral conduct. In half an hour, I will be offering sacrifices. When my conduct improves, I will definitely help you avenge me!"
Inside the gourd, there is a scene of ice and fire. In the center of the gourd, there is a core, and there is a person standing on the core.
He wears a golden crown on his head, yellow hair hanging on his shoulders, and a cassock.
This person is the old monster with yellow eyebrows who was taken into the gourd between Yin and Yang by Maitreya Buddha.
The old monster with yellow eyebrows snorted angrily and said, "Hmph, how long has it been? I have taught you so many methods of cultivation, and you are only now at the Golden Immortal level. It's really embarrassing."
"If I weren't trapped in the gourd, would I need you to help me get revenge?"
The old monster with yellow eyebrows and Shi Ji worked together to deal with Qin Tian and Nezha. Finally, he was captured by Taiyi Zhenren and sent to the throne of Maitreya Buddha to atone for his sins.
After Maitreya Buddha learned about this, he put the yellow-browed old monster into a gourd with two poles of yin and yang, threw it into the infinite sea, and drifted with the current.
During the drifting, the old monster with yellow eyebrows suffered thousands of years of ice and ten thousand years of sky fire in the gourd at the Yin and Yang poles, and his hatred for Qin Tian became even stronger.
After several twists and turns, the gourds of yin and yang flowed into the four seas.
Because once the earth's crust Due to the loosening of the heart, the sea water in the four seas once submerged the mortal world, and to this day, the four seas are still connected to the currents of the mortal world.
Unknowingly, the old monster with yellow eyebrows drifted from the divine world to the sea of the mortal world, and then from the sea to the stream.
A few months ago, Huang Xianren was still a monster that had just cultivated into a human form. His magic power was not very high, and he didn't even have the capital to serve as a subordinate.
Huang Xianren, who could no longer live in the divine world, fled from the divine world to the mortal world.
One day, Huang Xianren was fishing by the river when he suddenly saw a gourd floating upstream.
There was still a sound coming from the gourd. Huang Xianren hurriedly jumped into the water and fished the gourd out of the water. Only later did he realize that the old monster with yellow eyebrows was locked in the gourd.
Knowing that the famous old monster with yellow eyebrows was locked inside, Huang Xianren immediately surrendered him.
The yellow-browed old monster was immediately disappointed when he learned that Huang Xianren was just a monster who had just become an adult.
I originally thought that someone could help me break the seal of Maitreya Buddha.
With Huang Xianren's cultivation, it would take hundreds of years to break the seal of Maitreya Buddha. By then, the yellow-browed old monster would be able to come out on his own.
The hatred in the yellow-browed old monster's heart became even stronger when he thought that he would have to suffer torture in the gourd of yin and yang.
Although the gourd of yin and yang cannot be created, he cannot wait for a moment to seek revenge from Qin Tian.
Therefore, the old monster with yellow eyebrows taught Huang Xianren the way of cultivation.
This method of human sacrifice was invented by the old monster with yellow eyebrows.
The old monster with yellow eyebrows guarded the Sutra Pavilion under the Maitreya Buddha's throne for several years. During those years of guarding the Sutra Pavilion, he learned many ways of cultivation.
This is where the method of human sacrifice comes from.
Huang Xianren practiced using the method of the old monster with yellow eyebrows, and his cultivation level really improved greatly.
After another period of time, Huang Xianren happened to pass by Shizai Peak and saw this Taoist temple. There were several Taoist priests with good cultivation in the Taoist temple.
Huang Xianren captured the Taoist priests, sacrificed them alive, and occupied the magpie's nest.
Later, Huang Xianren took all the weasels around Shizai Peak as his subordinates, renovated the backyard of the Taoist temple, and built a sacrificial platform.
After gaining the territory, Huang Xianren began to concentrate on cultivation.
In a few months, several villages around Shizai Peak have been almost invaded by the Huangxian people.
Helpless, Huang Xianren could only expand the target range and finally came to Yonghe Village.
Yonghe Village is already the seventh village to be killed.
Before going to Yonghe Village, Huang Xianren thought he wouldn't gain much, but he didn't expect that there were two immortal cultivators in the village. This was an unexpected surprise.
After returning, Huang Xianren immediately chose a good and auspicious day to complete the sacrifice.
Before the sacrifice, Huang Xianren came to offer incense to the yellow-browed old monster according to past customs.
Unexpectedly, the old monster with yellow eyebrows suddenly became furious, which made Huang Xianren a little at a loss and kowtowed to him repeatedly to beg for mercy.
"Lord Huangmei, please calm down. I've been practicing very hard."
"There are two immortal cultivators among the sacrifices this time, which will definitely help the villain to greatly improve his cultivation. As long as these people are sacrificed today, the villain's cultivation will definitely reach the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal. By then, the villain will
I will definitely avenge you, Lord Huangmei!"
When he heard this, the yellow-browed old monster could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and roared loudly, "It's about time! Do you know how long I have been waiting for you?!"
"Including today, it has been a hundred days!
One hundred days, do you know how I got here?"
Within the gourd of yin and yang, there is only one core that can stay.
This core is only twenty centimeters in size and can barely stand on a pair of feet.
If you are not careful, you may fall into the abyss, experience the biting cold, or be plunged into the hot magma.
The yellow-browed old monster didn't even have a chance to take a nap. He was tense all the time for fear of falling.
Every day is spent with fingers clasped.
Even through the gourd, Huang Xianren could clearly feel the anger of the old monster with yellow eyebrows, and he was so frightened that he quickly buried his head in front of his body.
Trembling begging for mercy
"Please calm down, Mr. Huangmei. The villain is already thinking of ways to rescue you."
"After the villain's investigation, I learned that Qin Tian not only offended you, Lord Huangmei, but also offended the Lord of the Demon Realm. When the villain gets Qin Tian's head, he will have a certificate of surrender, and then the villain can ask for help.
The Lord of the Demon Realm has rescued you."
"Lord of the Demon Realm?"
After Huang Xianren reminded him, the anger in the yellow-browed old monster dropped sharply, and he said to himself thoughtfully, "Yes, why didn't I think of it, I can go to the Demon Realm Master!"
The seal on this gourd with two poles of yin and yang was made by Maitreya Buddha himself. No matter whether it is heaven, Buddhism or even the decent immortals in the divine world, it is impossible for them to go against Maitreya Buddha for their own sake.
But there are still people in the Three Realms who are not afraid of Buddhism.
Then there is only the demon realm.
Rahu is the master of the demon realm, and his cultivation is unquestionable. Unlocking the seal of Maitreya Buddha is just a piece of cake.
If we can find Rahu, we will definitely be able to come out of this gourd of yin and yang.
Thinking of this, the yellow-browed old monster showed a happy expression.
"Okay, you'd better keep your word. I'll give you three more days. If you can't find Qin Tian within three days, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Seeing that the anger of the old monster with yellow eyebrows had completely disappeared, Huang Xianren breathed a sigh of relief and with a flattering smile on his face, he repeatedly cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Huang eyebrows, I will definitely fulfill your wish."
"Bang, bang bang!"
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, followed by a boy's voice, "Great Immortal!"
Huang Xianren quickly stood up, straightened out his appearance, put on a majestic look and looked out the door and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
In front of the old monster with yellow eyebrows, Huang Xianren is just a little weasel monster.
But in front of this group of boys, Huang Xianren was a great immortal, so he was naturally much tougher.
The boy's voice outside the door sounded again.
"Great Immortal, the sacrifice is ready."
"Okay, I will be here in a moment."
"yes."
After the boy outside the door left, Huang Xianren bowed to the yellow-browed old monster and said respectfully, "Master Huang-browed, after the villain has completed the sacrifice, he will go to find Qin Tian. Please wait for my return."
"Go for it!"
"yes!"
After bowing again, Huang Xianren turned and left the room and went to the backyard.
…
At this time, Qin Tian and Jiang Ziya were hiding behind a bush of flowers.
"It's him?!"
When he saw Huang Xianren walking towards him, Qin Tian's pupils suddenly shrank, and he secretly thought in his heart that he couldn't hold back the anger in his heart. The true energy in his body surged, and the flowers around him moved without any wind.
Whisper, rustle...
"Who's there?!"
Huang Xianren was very alert, with a pair of sharp eyes He stared closely at the flowers.
Now is the critical moment for the sacrifice. If it is interrupted, the next auspicious time for the sacrifice will be seven days later.
The yellow-browed old monster only gave Huang Xianren three days, and he could not wait for seven days, so this sacrifice must be extremely careful.
Hearing this, the boy at the door followed Huang Xianren's gaze and stepped forward to take a look.
Seeing that there was nothing strange in the flowers, he returned to Huang Xian's side, raised his hands and respectfully replied, "Reporting to the Immortal, there is nothing strange in the flowers. Could it be caused by the wind?"
"The wind blows?"
Regarding the boy's answer, Huang Xianren narrowed his eyes and calculated the direction of the wind with his fingers, and the look of doubt on his face became more intense.
There is no wind at all at this time of day. How can the flowers move on their own without wind?
In addition, I had been feeling uneasy half an hour ago, as if something big was going to happen.
To be on the safe side, Huang Xianren planned to investigate in person.
Huang Xianren's eyes flashed, he activated his pupil technique, and slowly walked towards the flowers.
When he saw Huang Xianren walking towards the flowers, Qin Tian suddenly felt his heart rising in his throat.
Qin Tian's invisibility skill is only a low-level spell. If Huang Xianren's eye skill is slightly higher, he will be exposed to the opponent's eyes.
It doesn't matter if he is discovered by the opponent. The worst he can do is fight. However, Qin Tian is worried about the safety of the villagers in Yonghe Village and his parents.
tread!
tread!
tread!
Huang Xianren slowly approached the flowers step by step, and the heavy footsteps sounded like a hammer, hitting Qin Tian's heart.
I saw Huang Xianren coming to the flowers, opening every green leaf and looking at it, not even an ant was spared.
Seeing that there was nothing strange behind the flowers, Huang Xianren muttered to himself, "Could it really be blown by the wind?"
Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Fortunately, when there was a noise, I hid behind the rockery next to the flowers in time, otherwise I might have been discovered by now.
"Impossible, my divination will not be wrong."
But at this moment, Huang Xianren muttered again and turned to look behind the rockery.
"!!!"
Qin Tian suddenly looked shocked, his back was covered in cold sweat, and he did not dare to make a sound.
Seeing Huang Xianren walking over, Qin Tian reached out and pulled out the Dragon Song Sword, intending to fight with him.
But at this moment, the voice of the boy who served nearby rang out, reminding him, "Great Immortal, it's almost time. If you don't start the sacrifice, you will miss the auspicious time."
Huang Xianren stopped and thought for a moment.
"Okay, the sacrifice is more important, you all keep an eye on me!"
"yes!"
When Huang Xianren turned around and returned to the sacrificial altar, Qin Tian let out a long breath.
Fortunately, Huang Xianren didn't discover it, otherwise there might have been more trouble.
On the other side, Huang Xianren came to the desk, first lit three incense sticks and inserted them into the incense burner, and then bowed three times very devoutly.
"Everyone, you have deserved your death today. After I become the Taiyi Golden Immortal, I will definitely save you."
After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and a gourd appeared in his palm.
"It's now!"
The gourd in Huang Xianren's hand is the gourd that took away everyone in Yonghe Village.
As long as we seize the gourd, we can save everyone.
Qin Tian immediately jumped off the rockery and flashed.
