There are many faded prayer flags hanging on the big trees here, and there is also a skull wall, which turned out to be a sky burial platform.
At this time, I saw the sky burial master waving the burial knife, and the cold sword energy passed by, the bones and flesh of the corpses were separated, and the terrifying corpse odor filled the air.
The man who wielded a knife to dismember the body was the owner of the sky burial platform here.
Luo Ning's spiritual consciousness discovered that this sky burial master was an eighth-grade tomb cultivator, that is, a monk from the Corpse Forest Sect.
He was emitting tomb aura, corpse aura, and soul aura all over his body, like an ominous weakling.
Of course Sky Burial Masters are not weaklings (walking corpses), they are half angels and half ghosts, both compassionate and ruthless.
In Tubo, the Sky Burial Master was the disciple of the Master of the Corpse Forest and the monk of the Cold Forest Cemetery.
They rely on the soul energy, corpse energy and tomb energy of corpses to practice, half yin and half yang, half human and half ghost.
A large group of vultures swooped down. Each large and ugly vulture stretched its long neck and tore its internal organs. The bird's head was suddenly bloody.
In the sparse pine forest, the sound of sharp claws and sharp beaks tearing apart rotting corpses was suddenly heard.
The sky burial masters cut up corpses and fed them to vultures, preaching that "King Shibi gave his body to feed pigeons, and Mahasattva devoted himself to feeding tigers."
There are too many corpses. Even if the sky burial master is an eighth-level monk, his workload will be huge.
The strange thing is that so many corpses obviously died of poisoning, and their flesh and blood are highly poisonous, but these vultures show no signs of poisoning.
The two young disciples Xi Guan'er and Fu Guan'er did not dare to watch this scene, so they could only hide in the carriage.
Luo Ning said to them: "This is an evil world with five turbidities. You cannot escape many things. You must see, hear and encounter them yourself."
The little fox girl Bai Yuanyuan said: "Master, these vultures are poisonous vultures, not ordinary vultures."
"There are such poisonous vultures on Qianqiu Mountain. They love to eat poison and are the slaves of poisonous birds."
The slaves of the poisonous vultures? Of course Luo Ning knew that the poisonous vultures were famous for their extremely poisonous nature, but he did not know that these poisonous vultures were actually the slaves of the poisonous vultures.
"Do you demon cultivators in Qianqiu Cave also have poison?" Luo Ning asked.
Bai Yuanyuan shook her tail, "Zhen is not a demon cultivator, but a demon bird that does not change its form."
It turns out that it is difficult for a monster bird like a bird, which is very rare and unfamiliar to the human race, to enter the memory of the human race and therefore difficult to transform.
In addition, because domestic animals live with humans day and night, they are inherently humble in front of humans and are also difficult to transform.
What is easy to transform are wild animals such as jackals, tigers, and leopards that are familiar to humans and are easy to contaminate human memories, and at the same time are not domestic animals or poultry.
Bai Yuanyuan pointed at the disgusting vultures, "The poisonous vultures will feed the poisonous blood to the poisonous ones after eating poison."
"There is Poison Cloud Mountain hundreds of miles away, which is the territory of poisonous birds. I heard that more than one poisonous cultivator wanted to take poisonous birds as pets, but they were all poisoned and eaten by poisonous birds."
Luo Ning suddenly said to the Sky Burial Master in Tubo:
"Pious Dobhutan, compassionate Regyalpa, what kind of misfortune did the people you sent away suffer?"
Thousands of people were poisoned to death, and it was no small matter wherever they were placed. Although serfs had no personal freedom, they were the property of noble lords, and even those gentlemen would not ignore them.
That day, the burial master raised his head, looked at Luo Ning with cold and dull eyes, and swept the flag of the Luo family class. His voice was like the murmur of the dead in the tomb:
"Curious and kind actor from afar, I tell you with an honest heart."
"These poor people with unfinished karma were poisoned to death by the demons in Qianqiu Cave."
What? Poisoned to death by the demon from Qianqiu Cave? Hearing this, the little fox girl suddenly looked surprised.
Then she understood.
It must be that proud peacock!
Because he is the boss of Qianqiu Cave, and because he is related to the master of Corpse Forest and the master of Jinpeng Temple, he acts without any scruples.
That "Master Kong" has a centipede spirit, a spider spirit, a snake spirit, and a scorpion spirit under his command.
These four poisons are very familiar to the human race and can easily contaminate their memory. Therefore, once they have practiced for a long time and become successful, they will be able to transform.
They are known as the Messengers of the Four Poisons, and they are his most loyal minions and his four concubines.
These four poisonous queens helped "Master Kong" poison many people to death.
One time he passed by a ranch, and the herdsmen were ignorant of gold and jade, and they were negligent in their etiquette and speech, so he let a few poisonous girls kill hundreds of herdsmen.
Another time, a lord offended him, and he sent people to poison the lord's thousands of yaks.
He is a ruthless person who will retaliate.
If the tribal envoy offended him, he would not be able to kill the official, but poisoning thousands of serfs in revenge was commonplace.
Luo Ning asked again: "Why did the demon in Qianqiu Cave poison so many people?"
He was bent on seeking the official position of the Naixue tribe envoy, and increasingly regarded the serfs here as the common people under his jurisdiction. How could he tolerate large-scale murders?
Even the Tibetan officials would not tolerate this kind of thing unless the murderer had some background.
Seeing that Luo Ning was a seventh-grade monk, the sky burial master could only say:
"Guests from afar, I don't know about this. Maybe they have offended the cave master of Qianqiu Cave."
Master Kong? Luo Ning understands.
Although the peacock is a demon clan, he has connections with the temple, the lord of corpse forest, the great lord, Green Forest and other forces. He is a prestigious and luxurious figure in Xifan County.
Whatever the reason, it was not a big deal for him to poison thousands of serfs.
Most likely, Jin Yanshou offended him, and he wanted to give Jin Yanshou some color.
…
Luo Ning hurried on with a gloomy expression, while the little fox girl cursed "Master Kong" uneasily.
The killing was so wanton that even a fox demon like her couldn't stand it.
"Master." Bai Yuanyuan rode up to follow Lao Jianji and looked at Luo Ning's profile.
"Master has noble blood and unpredictable methods. If we go to Qianqiu Cave, even if we can't replace the peacock's position, we can still compete for the top spot."
"That peacock is very domineering. He has many enemies. Even among the demon clan, there are many people who want him to die."
She always believed that her master had the noble bloodline of an ancient demon.
"Master, Qianqiu Mountain is three hundred miles away and produces spiritual grass, spiritual materials, and spiritual fruits. It also produces gems, saffron, fur, gold sand, and red sandalwood..."
"The big and small demon lords of Qianqiu Cave are all extremely rich."
"If Master grabs a top position, it is worth ten thousand acres of land."
Luo Ning suddenly asked: "If someone kills that Master Kong and replaces him, what powerful person will avenge him?"
The little fox girl thought for a moment and said, "If he was killed, someone would definitely want to avenge him. But as for powerful people... they probably won't show up."
"He knows a lot of powerful people, but he doesn't want to avenge him. As long as the annual filial piety is gone, they shouldn't care who is in charge of Qianqiu Cave."
Luo Ning sneered, "Okay, then I'll go to Qianqiu Cave. Do you demon cultivators from Qianqiu Cave like watching a show?"
Bai Yuanyuan smiled and said, "I love watching plays. Not only the demon cultivators like to watch it, but also the bandits in the green forest nearby and the monster beasts and birds in the forest also like to watch it."
"Every time Master Kong takes a concubine, he will hold a big show, summon the demon lord, and the powerful green forest to come and watch."
After Luo Ning heard this, he decided to take a trip.
In the final analysis, Mr. Kong is just a Green Forest Demon Lord, not an aristocratic official or a senior monk in a temple.
Since the strong are respected in Qianqiu Cave and I have the domineering spirit to control monsters, I might as well break into the dragon's pond and the tiger's den.
"Go back to Naqin Manor first, and then go to Qianqiu Cave!" Luo Ning said.
…
Eight days later.
A man and woman came to Qianqiu Mountain Pass.
The man is a young boy riding a bull, and the woman is a fox girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.
"Master." The little fox girl pointed to the mountain covered by clouds and mist, with many mountains. "This is the only way to enter the Qianqiu Cave. After one day in the mountain, you will reach the Demon Cave."
"Let's go." Luo Ning slapped the horns.
The little fox girl followed on horseback, her face showing the joy of returning home.
