It may be okay to say that Lu Sheng is the number one master among mortals, but with Shangyang Jiuli guarding him and two smiling tigers in front of him who can't figure out the details, he really has to think that he is some kind of Beidi.
The number one master is that his brain is really crushed.
"Let's talk in another place." Xiao Hongye suggested.
The three people quickly changed rooms. As for the dead Ling Feng, no one mentioned it again. After a few people left, he turned into black ashes and burned up in the blink of an eye.
Ling Feng at least had the strength of two lines. When Lu Sheng grabbed it with one palm, he felt as if he had caught an extremely slippery fish-like object. As soon as he exerted his strength, the Chi Ji Jiu Sha Gong was directly penetrated into his body, causing shock and shock.
The blood network's special effects activated at the same time, pinning Ling Feng in place.
In other words, once an ordinary expert is caught by him and the two special effects explode, he will never be able to escape again.
Ling Feng was like this. Before he could show his strength, Lu Sheng seized the opportunity and killed him with one palm.
It may seem that he died after his head was blown, but in fact the inside of the body was already covered with a large number of internal energy nets from the Chiji Jiusha Gong. Without internal energy, it is impossible to kill a person at this level by just relying on hard skills and brute force.
To exist, the two must assist and cooperate. Only Yang attribute internal strength can effectively kill the opponent.
The three of them moved to a new place that seemed to be a collection room. The room was filled with various sculptures of flowers, birds, insects, and fish. They were all root sculptures and looked strange and lifelike.
"Hohoho, I'm just interested in collecting. Don't make fun of me," Xiao Hongye said with a smile, covering her mouth with a folding fan.
"Well, member Xiao has unique hobbies. I didn't expect him to be a master of root carving." Lu Sheng smiled and praised a few words. From these root carvings, he could clearly see the same weird and unique style as Xiao Hongye, plus the details can be seen.
The carving took place not long ago, and they are all made using the same technique. It is not difficult to guess that Xiao Hongye carved them by himself.
"Gang Leader Lu is ridiculous." Xiao Hongye narrowed his eyes, then waved away the surrounding servants and maids,
After everyone left and only the three of them were left in the storage room, he closed the doors and windows and then motioned for the two of them to sit down and talk.
"Speaking of which, I invited you two here this time to discuss the future Dharma sacrifices." He said softly with a smile.
"Dharma sacrifice?" Master Bai Feng frowned, "Is it starting so soon? Isn't it once every ten years?"
"Isn't this a pre-discussion in advance?" Xiao Hongye said with a smile and looked at Lu Sheng. "Gang Leader Lu, this matter requires your full cooperation. You are the first to prepare it. Do you have any arrangements?"
Dharma sacrifice?
Lu Sheng's expression remained unchanged, but his mind was completely at a loss. He didn't know what Dharma sacrifices were at all, and this seemed to be common sense that everyone in the family knew. Judging from what these two people meant, it seemed to be the most common common sense.
"What arrangements I can make, doesn't it all depend on your plans?" His heart moved slightly, and he said something that simulated a dilemma.
"There are still six months until the ritual ceremony of my Wuyou Mansion, so there is no rush. The Red Dragon Tribulation Blood Sacrifice consumed too much before, and my family master was somewhat exposed, so this matter still depends on the two of you, and there can be no disturbance.
Too big." Xiao Hongye said with a smile, "Our Wuyou Mansion is willing to pay a hundred fake silver pills as the total reward for this time."
"Fake silver elixir!" Old Taoist Bai Feng suddenly shouted, with a look of surprise on his face. "It's really a generous move. Master Wuyou Palace is quite generous."
Lu Sheng had no idea what the fake silver elixir was, but it didn't stop him from pretending to be slightly moved.
Xiao Hongye seemed to be very satisfied with the expressions shown by the two people, and said with a smile: "This trip requires at least ten people born with ten fingers without moon, regardless of size. One hundred ordinary living creatures. The main thing is not to cause too much turmoil."
"This is considered a standard share, and I have no objection to it," Bai Feng said, which meant that the official court would not have any objections.
Xiao Hongye's eyes suddenly moved to Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng had a vague guess in his mind. He thought about it and asked something that seemed to be of little relevance.
“What does it mean to be in need, big or small?”
Xiao Hongye smiled.
"Oh, it's okay for the elderly and children. They just need a drop of blood from the heart, so the amount doesn't matter."
Lu Sheng understood now.
This Wuyou Mansion is basically looking for people to be sacrificed! This is a murderous business! Blood from the heart, blood from the heart, blood from the heart, what is that but murder?
He took a closer look at the expressions of Xiao Hongye and Baifeng Lao Dao, and saw that both of them had a matter-of-fact expression, as if they were discussing what to eat for lunch today. It seemed that the human life in the words was not a person, but some treatment.
Slaughtered animals.
Xiao Hongye explained: "I brought a hundred people over from Yunzhou a while ago, but they were intercepted by some small insects on the way, otherwise there would be no need to search here this time.
So this matter needs to be solved by Gang Leader Lu."
"Is it okay for death row inmates and criminals?" Lu Sheng asked in a deep voice.
"Of course, this is the best, it won't cause trouble easily, but it's not that easy to find someone with no moon on their fingers." Bai Feng followed with a smile.
"Okay, Gang Leader Lu, let me tell you clearly, you are the boss, how about counting 70 fake silver pills?" Xiao Hongye urged.
Lu Sheng sighed in his heart. He had never been a kind and weak person, but he was asked to kill people for no reason, just for a so-called ritual sacrifice? He asked himself that he was not that bad.
But no matter what, once you refuse, it will be a disgrace to the Wuyou Mansion. And judging from Bai Feng's performance, it seems that this is a common thing for all families. It cannot be avoided after all.
At this time, he noticed a hint of strange color on the faces of Xiao Hongye and Baifeng. Knowing that he had hesitated for too long and made them a little suspicious, he said.
"In this case, I can't guarantee that there will be people with no moon on their fingers, but I can provide a share for a hundred people." He planned to start with the prisoners in the prison, or to find those who committed crimes. This base is so large.
, finally able to gather a hundred people.
"That's okay." Xiao Hongye slightly looked away from Lu Sheng. "Then it will be like this every ten years from now on?"
"I don't have any objections from the old Taoist side, as long as the things that should be handed over to Wuyou Mansion are not missed," Bai Feng said with a smile.
Lu Sheng also showed a smile.
"Yes. But the price is not fixed."
"Of course." Xiao Hongye suddenly burst into laughter. "I wonder how long it will take Master Lu? There are still two months left before the ritual ceremony will be held at my house."
"I'll try my best to do it as soon as possible." Lu Sheng said solemnly, "Commissioner Xiao just prepares the fake silver elixir."
“Don’t worry, don’t worry.”
After deciding on the matter, the three of them chatted for a while, mostly with Xiao Hongye and Bai Feng talking. Lu Sheng listened more, and only occasionally expressed his opinions when asked.
As the conversation progressed, he gradually understood.
The so-called Dharma sacrifice is a sacrifice that aristocratic families must make every ten years. It is a sacrifice of human life to the magic weapon enshrined by the family. If the sacrifice is not performed, the children of the aristocratic family will be weak and their own abilities will decline.
Lu Sheng made some insinuations and asked, as long as someone enshrines the divine weapon and magic blade, he must make a ritual sacrifice, without exception.
Therefore, whether it is aristocratic families or demon forces, they try their best to maintain the stability and prosperity of their areas so that the population can multiply. They can easily find the population for ritual sacrifices at any time.
After all, the specific conditions required for ritual sacrifices may change from time to time.
When Lu Sheng learned this answer, his mind suddenly became clear.
The aristocratic family is simply a weird monster in human skin. They treat ordinary people just like pigs and sheep, and maybe at most they are slightly better than pigs, sheep and livestock.
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Master Baifeng confessed in advance and left, leaving Lu Sheng and Xiao Hongye behind.
Xiao Hongye called Meiji to accompany her, and put one hand unscrupulously into the bottom of Meiji's skirt to touch it. She and Lu Sheng sat side by side in the small hall, watching the concubine dance below.
The music was soft and charming, and it was unknown what instrument it was playing. Lu Sheng was sitting in his seat, and it sounded like a young girl singing softly and gracefully, like the wonderful sound she made when she was enjoying herself in the rain and dew.
He sat upright on the chair, with a graceful woman with turbulent breasts sitting next to him. Although the environment was beautiful, he was not looking for pleasure at all, and there was only a hint of coldness in his heart.
"Brother Lu, the concubines here are all processed goods. If you like any one, you can choose at will." Xiao Hongye waved his hand and said happily.
"Brother, I'm joking. Lu is not interested in these things. Martial arts is my lifelong pursuit. The rest of the trivial matters are just floating clouds." Lu Sheng said calmly.
Although he didn't know what "processed" meant, he roughly understood what it meant when he saw that all the women here had dull eyes and listened to whatever they said, just like automatic dolls.
"Nowadays, it is rare to see a pure person like me. No wonder he can step into the three levels at such a young age." Xiao Hongye sighed. He picked up a glass of wine and toasted Lu Sheng.
"Brother, you are so complimentary." Lu Sheng responded with a toast.
"Speaking of which, I specifically stayed with you on this trip because I have an important matter and I want to communicate with you." Xiao Hongye said seriously.
"Please tell me." Lu Sheng had already guessed that Xiao Hongye had something to do with his hard skills.
Xiao Hongye waved her hand to the surrounding guards to go down. Only Xian Wu and Mei Ji who were playing around were left behind.
"I don't know what I know. The little thief wanted by Wuyou Mansion recently arrived in the North. He even got together with some wanted criminals in Yunzhou, and he actually seems to be gaining some power."
"Oh? With the strength of your house, isn't it enough to solve the problem?" Lu Sheng said with a smile.
"That little thief is too cunning. He never confronts him head-on. He runs around and is really difficult to solve. So I want to ask Brother Lu to help me investigate. If you find any clues, please inform me as soon as possible.
." Xiao Hongye said sincerely. "After the work is completed, I will give you a Wuyou flower from my Wuyou Mansion as a reward."
"Worry-free flower?" Lu Sheng didn't know what this thing was, but he thought it shouldn't be bad.
"As long as the body is not injured more than five levels, you can completely recover after taking it once. I haven't used it yet, have you?" Xiao Hongye said with a smile, "We have a limited supply of this thing every year, and we basically don't give it away, but I will naturally share it with others.
It’s different, you and I hit it off right away, this little thing is not worth mentioning.”
"Thank you very much, brother." Lu Sheng clasped his fists and smiled.
He recalled the first time he saw Zhen Yi, her head was cut into two pieces, but she was still alive and could recover. He also thought of the umbrella girl and Ling Feng he had seen before.
He had only fought against three high-level opponents, but the first two were almost immortal. Ling Feng was killed in one go, and he couldn't figure out the pattern.
