Chapter 108 The truth of the blood stained red (2)
"Brother, why do you think the city lord imprisoned all those untouchables in the stronghold? They have to take away a group every day, and these people who were taken away have not been seen coming back."
The young soldier casually threw the weapon in his hand to the ground, then took a sip of wine from the pot and asked his companions.
"Go, what are you asking about something you shouldn't know? If you know too much, you may lose your head!"
The older soldier did not answer directly, but slapped the recruit on the head and began to curse and reprimand him.
"Brother, there are only two of us in this passage. What are you afraid of? Tell me. You said you haven't seen those people you captured actually join our guards and be sent to fight, and you haven't seen them work in the mines.
Coolie, where have these people gone?”
The relationship between the two soldiers, the old man and the young man, was obviously not a simple one. Seeing the old man scolding him, the new man smiled playfully, handed the bottle of wine to the old man, and continued to ask.
"You brat, if my sister-in-law hadn't entrusted you to me before she left, I would have been too lazy to care about you."
The older soldier took the flask and took two big sips. The red color spread to his cheeks, and he began to have difficulty holding back his tongue when he spoke.
"Let me tell you, in the entire stronghold, with so many soldiers, I am probably the only one who knows the whereabouts of those untouchables. Hum, even the captains and commanders may not know as clearly as I do."
Maybe he really thought that there was no one in this passage, or maybe he was eager to share the secret in his heart with others. After drinking three ounces of wine, the older soldier started talking non-stop.
"You know that I was temporarily assigned to be in charge of escorting that group of untouchables some time ago, right?"
"One night, I sent the fifty untouchables who were selected that day to the designated place. It was a mountain col, deserted. The mountain wind was howling at night, not to mention the group of untouchables who were half-clothed.
, we brothers who were escorted were all very cold."
"Then we knocked out the untouchables one by one as required and left them all there, and then we returned the way we came."
The older soldier said a few words and then took a sip of wine. The young soldier on the side did not rush him, as if he was listening to a story, nodding frequently to the details.
On the contrary, Li Mu and Liu Long, who had been standing and hiding at the side, were so anxious that they wanted to rush up and slap the old drunkard twice, telling him to talk to his mother-in-law quickly.
"But when I was halfway back, I suddenly remembered something, and then I told the other brothers that I wanted to go to the Peacock Tower to drink wine in the middle of the night. No one suspected it, so I left the team and went back."
The older soldier's words made Li Mu and Li Mu prick up their ears. This old guy was old. Not only was he addicted to alcohol, but he also wanted to drink flower wine. He didn't mind that he had a long life.
"I turned back because I wanted to get something. One of these untouchables was the son of Old Yutou in the west of the city. I heard that his ancestors were also nobles, but they later declined and became poor. But he had a glass rod.
He was reluctant to sell the pipe until his death, and later passed it on to his son."
"Have you never seen that glazed pipe? It's emerald red and white, as solid as jade. It's definitely the best of the best. Haha, you also know that I like to smoke like that, so on the way I thought that this pipe must have been used by my old friend.
Yu Tou's son took it with him, so he turned back and wanted to get it back."
When Li Mu and Liu Long heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. They didn't expect that this old bastard was not only drunk and lewd, but also smoked. Such a person could gain a foothold in the Guards. It was conceivable that the entire city lord's palace was full of people.
The quality of the guards is so worrying.
"Then I used the moonlight to climb all the way up the hillside. But when I first entered the mountain col, I realized that something was wrong. The moon that was originally hanging in the sky suddenly disappeared, and the entire mountain col was covered with ashes.
A strange blood mist covered it up, and the smell makes me want to vomit just thinking about it."
"I panicked at that time. What I was afraid of was that something went wrong with that group of untouchables. If the city lord discovered it, wouldn't it mean that all our brothers that night would be unlucky? You also know that the city lord has been decisive in killing in the past two years. If it really happens,
If I offend him, I'll probably have to move my head."
At this point, not only the young soldier, but also Li Mu and Liu Long, who had stood stiffly beside them, also held their breath. Obviously, what the veteran ruffian saw behind him was probably the huge fog shrouding Lishui City.
the truth.
"Then I rolled and rolled towards the col, but when I passed through a small forest, do you know what I saw?"
The older soldier shuddered involuntarily when he said this. Even though a long time had passed, the memory of that night in his mind still made him, an old man who was used to life and death, scared.
"In the bloody mist, there is a figure suspended in mid-air, enveloped by a huge bloody ball of light, and those supporting the bloody ball of light are the fifty untouchables I escorted there."
"The untouchables who were lying there unconscious by us were kneeling on the ground one by one, but their upper bodies were straight. The blood that I could see with my eyes just poured out of their seven orifices and converged into the blood-colored light in the air.
Ball that.”
"That bloody ball of light shines with such dazzling brilliance in the dark night, but it was fifty living lives that made it possible."
"I finally understand why, whether we were drafted or arrested on various charges, we are all strong men with strong blood. This is obviously someone practicing some kind of evil and cruel method, using living people
Use your blood to improve your strength."
Hearing this, the anger in Li Mu's heart surged again. In the immortal world, there are as many martial arts and martial arts as there are stars in the sky. They are too numerous to mention. Although hundreds of schools of thought are flourishing, any cultivation method should be accepted
Respect, but this practice of using other people's lives to improve one's cultivation has been the public enemy of all those who cultivate immortality since ancient times.
But in the fairy world where strength is respected, there will always be people who are obsessed with strength to the point of forgetting their true intentions. Demon cultivator is synonymous with this group of monks. Once in the far north of the mainland, there once appeared a demon cultivator.
By practicing the art of devouring the souls of living people, he caused a bloody storm in the isolated northern countries.
After slaughtering a million people, this demonic cultivator achieved great success in demonic skills and achieved the state of transcending tribulations. He is only one step away from the highest realm of cultivation, the ascension state. His arrogance and vicious methods are unparalleled in that extreme north.
The earth is truly invincible.
You must know that there are not many decent sects there, and the strongest monks are no more than Wuliang or Tribulation Master. They can barely protect themselves by relying on the mountain gate formation. If they want to eliminate demons head-on, they simply don't have the strength.
Fortunately, God has eyes. In the end, when the demon cultivator was massacring a big city, he met Ouyang Ling, the Medicine Immortal who happened to be passing by. At that time, the Medicine Immortal had already established the Alchemy Sect, and his own strength had also reached the Great Perfection of the Tribulation Realm.
Xiu Tucheng, Ouyang Ling stepped on his Nine Color Pill Furnace and started a battle with him.
In that battle, the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and the sun and the moon changed color. In the end, the Medicine Immortal was superior in skill and killed the demon cultivator on the spot, thus averting a catastrophe for the entire immortal world.
Li Mu heard that there was someone in Lishui City practicing this evil technique based on the blood of living people. He wanted to show up on the spot and interrogate the veteran ruffian to find out who the figure he saw was.
However, Liu Long on the side took his arm, signaling him to calm down and listen to the older soldier continue.
Li Mu finally calmed down, took a deep breath, and returned his attention to the conversation between the two Guards soldiers.
