Although the traveling speed was slow, fortunately the distance was not far. After sneaking for about five minutes, Ying Yue finally passed through the five to six meter deep bottom of the pool and arrived at the underground cave below.
There is another world in the underground caves.
Not only is it not dark, it is extremely bright.
In the very center of the underground cave, there is a statue of a big snake about three feet high. The snake has a high body and spits out a message. Its whole body is as green as emeralds, and its eyes are bright red with blood.
Under the snake statue, there was a chair made entirely of gold. Sitting on it was an old man with a withered face, his eyes slightly closed, and a cold aura surrounding his body.
This old man was like a piece of dry wood with dry skin. If his eyes weren't still moving, he might have been regarded as a mummy.
What is frightening is that at this moment, there is a big green snake sitting at the old man's feet, curled up into a ball.
In addition to this old man, at the other end of the underground cave, there were seven or eight people completely shrouded in black robes who were busy.
They gathered around a stage, holding scissors, scalpels and other things in their hands, cutting and cutting a corpse on the stage.
It is not difficult to judge from the size of the corpse that it is the corpse of a child, about one and a half meters high!
The men in black robes continued to remove various organs from the corpse and put them into a petri dish on the side. The blood stained the table red, and a thick layer of blood scabs accumulated on the ground, which was dry and bloody!
Around the table, there are countless petri dishes containing hundreds of organs, including human hearts, kidneys, livers...
The most unacceptable thing is that not far from the stage, there are seven or eight large iron cages, and in each large iron cage, twelve or thirteen children are imprisoned.
There are children between three and five years old, young men between eleven and twelve years old, and high school students between seventeen and eighteen years old...
At this moment, nearly a hundred children were shivering and huddled together, with fear in their eyes, but no one cried!
Not a word!
Around the cage, four men in black robes stood, each holding a long whip, and their fierce eyes kept scanning the children in the iron cage.
The stage over there was very bloody. Logically speaking, these children should have been frightened to tears, but no one cried or shouted.
They were all as silent as a cicada, not daring to breathe.
This is obviously abnormal!
If you observe carefully, you will find that these children are covered with whip marks on their faces, arms, necks...
There was a three-year-old child whose back was badly beaten, but he didn't cry or make any fuss. He just buried his little head in the arms of a little girl, and his petite body shivered.
He is scared!
Everyone in the cage is scared!
But I can only sit quietly!
It’s been almost five days since I was caught here!
Liu Yuan felt that this was the most miserable day in her life. Even though she had been tortured by diseases since childhood, but compared with these five days, those tortures were nothing.
Over the past few days, she had seen with her own eyes twelve or thirteen of their children being taken to the operating table by these men in black robes, disemboweling them alive and draining their blood.
Then one organ, one organ was dismembered, an arm, a head, a heart, a liver...
Dismembered and bottled!
This made Liu Yuan extremely frightened, but she did not dare to scream, because if any of them dared to make a sound, they would be greeted with painful whipping!
This is a special steel whip with small but sharp barbs all over it. When the whip comes down, the skin will be ripped open and a bloody groove will be made directly on the person's skin.
Liu Yuan saw with his own eyes that a boy about three years old was crying out of fear and was beaten to pieces!
With one whip, a crack was ripped open in the little boy's belly; with two whips, the little boy's head was beaten to pieces...
The little boy was beaten to death like this!
This is why all the children were so frightened that they did not dare to make a sound.
Quietness is required here, absolute quietness!
No matter it was the man in black robe who dismembered the child or the children who were captured, no one could make a single sound, and they must not disturb the old man under the snake statue.
Thinking of this, Liu Yuan couldn't help but look at the withered old man, with a flash of deep fear in his eyes.
Looking at the entire cave, the most terrifying thing is not the man in black robe holding a steel whip, nor the man in black robe dismembering the child.
But the old man!
He is the most feared of all!
Because he controls the life and death of everyone, including the man in black robe!
Two days ago, a man in black robe accidentally broke a petri dish containing a child's organs. As a result, the old man attracted tens of thousands of centipedes and ate them alive.
Thinking of that man being eaten bit by bit until only a skeleton was left, Liu Yuan couldn't help but want to vomit!
"No! I can't vomit, otherwise I will be beaten to death!"
Liu Yuan's pretty face changed, and she quickly took a deep breath, trying to suppress the feeling of vomiting. However, it was better not to take a deep breath. After taking a deep breath, a strong smell of blood mixed with a fishy stench hit her face.
My stomach was churning, my throat was sore, and I vomited it out.
"vomit--"
At this moment, like thunder from the sky and fire from the earth, the man in black robe next to the iron cage immediately glared over fiercely, and dropped the steel whip in his hand without hesitation.
"Stab-"
The whip came down and hit Liu Yuan's leg directly. There was a soft stinging sound, Liu Yuan's pants were torn directly, and a blood groove more than 30 centimeters long was suddenly exposed on the white leg.
"ah--"
Liu Yuan screamed in pain, but she reacted in time and covered her mouth, forcing herself not to scream again.
"Stab-"
The man in black robe was not merciless, and whipped his subordinates three or four times in succession on Liu Yuan's body, directly drawing out four blood channels.
Liu Yuan, on the other hand, covered her mouth tightly, shaking all over in pain, sweat rolling down her forehead, and her pretty face turned pale.
The children in the other cages were terrified, but no one screamed, not even the three or four-year-old children.
One can imagine how afraid they were of being whipped by the men in black robes.
"Hmph, be honest with me!"
The man in black robe glared at Liu Yuan fiercely and whipped him a few more times before Shi Shiran stopped and glanced at the other people in the cage, his eyes full of warning.
It seems to be saying: Whoever dares to scream again might as well give it a try!
The children were so frightened that they could not help but shrink back and hugged them tighter. It seemed that this was the only way to give them some comfort.
"come here!"
At this moment, a strange hawk-like cry sounded from the other side of the cave.
All the men in black robes trembled and looked at the old man under the snake statue. They all wanted to know who the ancestor was calling.
Then, when all the men in black robes saw that the ancestor was staring at the man in black robes who had whipped Liu Yuan just now, instead of themselves, they couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Okay, okay, I didn’t call them!
But the black-robed man who had whipped Liu Yuan tensed up, his heart suddenly lifted, and he trotted to the snake statue, knelt down on the ground, and squealed for a while.
"Ancestor, you...are you looking for me?"
These words are not in Chinese or English, but in Burmese!
The withered old man did not speak, but just waved his hand. In an instant, a rustling sound was heard, mixed with a soft hissing sound.
"Old... Ancestor, please spare my life!"
"Please, ancestor, have mercy on me!"
Having stayed here for more than three years, the man in black robe was so familiar with such a sound that he was immediately frightened out of his wits and kowtowed as if pounding garlic.
The sound of "dong-dong-dong" collisions continued, and the ground shook every time. One can imagine how hard the man in black robe kowtowed.
"Ancestor, please spare my life!"
The ancestor didn't care about him, and at this moment, red snakes emerged from the gaps behind the snake statue.
One, two...
In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of crimson snakes appeared!
Some are long and some are short, some are thick and some are thin!
The longer one is three meters, the shorter one is 20 centimeters, as thick as a wrist and as thin as chopsticks.
"Old... Ancestor!"
Seeing tens of thousands of red snakes coming towards him like a tide, the man in black robe was so frightened that he immediately ran away.
Seeing this, the ancestor waved his sleeves, and a tiny green snake shot out from his sleeves, shooting towards the man in black robes like lightning.
Then he bit the man in black robes on the neck, and heard a scream. The man in black robes covered his neck and fell to the ground, and was drowned by the incoming wave of snakes.
"ah--"
After a while, the sea of snakes dispersed, and the man in black robe also disappeared.
There was nothing left on the spot, no blood, no hair, not even clothes.
The ancestor stood up slowly, and then walked to the big iron cage where Liu Yuan was sitting in front of everyone's horrified eyes. He stared at Liu Yuan with a pair of green eyes, a trace of heat flashing in his eyes.
When Liu Yuan was stared at like this, her delicate body trembled, her eyes couldn't stop being frightened, and she couldn't help but shrink back hard.
The other children in the cage did not dare to breathe or look at him, for fear of ending up like the man in black robe.
After staring at Liu Yuan for a long time, the ancestor finally withdrew his fiery gaze, stood up slowly, and let out a strange cry like an eagle: "Don't touch her from now on!"
Several men in black robes understood the meaning instantly and quickly knelt on the ground: "I will obey my ancestor's will!"
The old man in black robe nodded with satisfaction, then walked to the operating table and asked hoarsely: "How many accessory organs have been prepared?"
"If I go back to my ancestors, I will prepare a total of 169 sets of organs, including 78 sets for children under five years old, 61 sets for children under twelve years old, and 30 sets for teenagers under seventeen years old!"
A man in black robes replied respectfully.
"Why haven't you collected 200 sets yet?"
The ancestor frowned, and two green lights flashed in his eyes: "I will give you three days to prepare 200 sets immediately, otherwise..."
"Yes Yes Yes!"
"Be sure to be ready!"
All the men in black robes trembled with fear and quickly agreed. They did not dare to disobey their ancestor's order!
