Xingye Temple was not too complicated. Lin Ji went all the way deep and soon reached the back of the temple.
Compared with the splendor of the front yard, the interior of this temple is much simpler.
Finally, he looks a bit like a monk.
After passing a corridor, two forked roads appeared ahead.
To the left were the entrances to several halls. In the distance, he could see people rushing towards him, each of them with a murderous aura on their body.
"There are also those in the fourth realm." Lin Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, but ignored them and walked directly to the right.
The road on the right is much darker, there is no fluorite, and the ground under your feet has become a bluestone pavement.
Without any delay, he moved forward.
Soon, a four-story building made of stones appeared in front of him.
This building is really not small, even compared to the main hall you saw when you entered Xingye Temple.
However, the walls of this stone building were covered with moss, and the entrance to the building was only an iron gate gate two people wide, and some shouts could be faintly heard inside the door.
"Who are you, who dare to come to our Xingye Temple to cause trouble?!"
The person guarding the door of the building is an old monk, who is also in the fourth realm.
He glared at Lin Ji angrily, picked up the tin stick lying next to him, and hit Lin Ji head-on.
clang!
The long sword in Lin Ji's hand was moved forward, and it just happened to get stuck in the hollow at the head of the tin staff.
The old monk's expression suddenly changed, and he tried hard with his hands, but he couldn't shake Lin Ji at all.
"The fifth realm?!" an exclamation sounded.
At the same time, just as Lin Ji was about to kill the old monk in front of him, there was another sound of breaking wind behind him.
He turned around and saw another Fourth Realm person whom he had ignored before.
"Where is the wild monk who dares to kill people in Xingye Temple? I will capture you and skin you and remove your bones, so that I can relieve the hatred in my heart!"
"Well said, you have to peel off the skin and bones to relieve your hatred." Lin Ji nodded in agreement.
Withdrawing the Tiangang Sword and kicking away the old monk who was in the way, Lin Ji turned to face the man behind him.
Lin Ji was in a different level from him, so it didn't take much effort at all to make a move. He could overcome all the tricks with one force.
After a few sword blows, the monk could no longer hold on, and then Lin Ji stabbed his dantian with a sword.
Seeing that all his energy was shattered, Lin Ji refused to kill him.
"I'll take you back to skin you and remove your bones."
The monk was so frightened that when Lin Ji turned back to look at the old monk, he covered the wound on his lower abdomen and stumbled away.
Lin Ji didn't pursue him either.
There are too many damn bald donkeys, and they will kill everyone.
"It would be fine if it was just one place, but the situation is like this everywhere in Victoria. What's the use of just killing some unscrupulous minions...it also dirty my sword."
Thinking of this, Lin Ji glanced at the old monk standing aside who turned pale with fright.
"Although I'm afraid of dirtying my sword, seeing you bald donkeys in front of me is really an eyesore." With that said, Lin Ji raised his hand and struck the old monk with a sword.
Lin Ji continued to walk towards the stone building.
Pushing open the iron gate, a strange smell of decay mixed with the smell of blood hit my face.
Lin Ji couldn't help but frown.
Entering the door is a divided and orderly prison.
The area of each prison does not exceed one square meter, but at least three to five people are imprisoned.
The prisoners were packed so tightly that even breathing was extremely difficult.
Some people are missing arms, and some are missing ears.
In most cases, the wounds are still dripping with blood.
The sound of wailing is endless.
There were no less than a hundred people imprisoned on the first floor. Lin Ji looked around and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"I won't live long." He thought to himself.
Go upstairs again.
The second floor is a bit more open, with cages of the same size, but only one person in each cage.
Compared to those on the first floor, those imprisoned on the second floor were obviously of a higher class.
At least he has complete clothes, and it can be seen that before entering here, he was at least a decent person.
Not only that, in addition to holding more decent prisoners on the second floor, there is also a slightly larger room.
It's said to be a room, but it's actually just a half-built wall. You can see what's going on inside if you look around.
There were several chairs in the room, and there were tortured, shapeless corpses on the chairs.
There were other corpses piled in the corner.
"Is that a place for you to be tortured?" Lin Ji asked a man who seemed to be in a better state of mind.
The man shook his head repeatedly and huddled in the corner.
Lin Ji stopped asking and continued upstairs.
The situation on the third floor is better, as the prison area has become larger.
Most of the prisoners were well-dressed people, and all of them looked extraordinary.
But Bufan was also imprisoned here.
"So the first floor is for pigs, the second floor is for officials, the third floor is for nobles...then the fourth floor is for sacrifices."
Lin Ji had some guesses in his mind.
Go upstairs again.
Finally reached the top floor.
The cells here are at a new level. At least they have beds and even mattresses on the beds.
Although it is still dark and damp, it still smells bad.
But at least there is progress.
Compared with the first three floors, the fourth floor is empty.
Only in the innermost prison, a little boy hugged a little girl, trembling and staring at Lin Ji in panic.
Lin Ji breathed a sigh of relief and came to the prison.
Seeing Lin Ji approaching, the two children became obviously more frightened.
After looking at each other quietly for a moment, the boy summoned up the courage to protect the girl behind him.
"Are you...are you here to kill us?"
"Do you know you are going to be killed?" Lin Ji asked.
These two children are only four or five years old.
The boy nodded.
"No one who was sent to Xingye Temple came back alive."
Lin Ji swung his sword, cut off the iron bars of the prison, and walked into the cell.
He sat on the floor, opposite the two children.
"Where are you from?"
"Moxi."
Lin Ji recalled the map of Victoria and quickly remembered.
In several areas under the control of Tantric Buddhism in Weizhou, the county system of Da Qin has been almost abolished, and only a few names are left.
Just like the magistrate I saw in Nanmo County before.
If you say kill, just kill.
Instead, Victoria was divided into several parts.
Moxi is the west, covering the vast desert where Lin Jichu arrived in Weizhou, as well as a large area of Sakya Temple, the headquarters of Tantric Buddhism.
Come to think of it, these two children don't know where they are from, they only know a place like Moxi.
Lin Ji did not go into details and asked again: "Are these monks good or bad?"
Perhaps the question was too straightforward. There was fear in the boy's eyes, but he did not dare to speak.
After a moment of silence, the girl behind him spoke.
"It's bad! They killed our parents and brought us here!"
"It must be very bad!"
The girl said firmly.
Hearing this, Lin Ji finally had a smile on his face.
