Chapter 272: Torture
Half an hour later, in the attic house.
"My lord Mingjian, I have already told everything I know, and I hope that my subordinates will be merciful and spare the villain's life. Today's events, I can swear I will never tell the second person!" The gray-clothed middle-aged man was now shrouded in a layer of gray light, his face was distorted, as if he was suffering a great pain, and he couldn't stop begging for mercy from Hussele in front of him.
As he spoke, he glanced at the ground beside him.
The deacon's breath was already gone, his eyes were blank, his hands and feet were nailed to the ground, and blood was flowing.
The Stygian Moon Cult has its own set of methods of torturing people's souls and bodies, making people unable to survive and die, and although Hu Sailei's status in the sect is not high, he is no stranger to this way.
The middle-aged man in gray had used this method to extract confessions from many people in the past, but he never expected that one day he would be treated like this.
At this moment, he regretted it in his heart, he could only be regarded as a small leader in the main altar of the Dark Moon Sect, this time he relied on the care of the Lord of the Blue Wolf Hall to get the identity of this selection envoy, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make a profit, but he didn't expect to run into Shi Mu, the two evil stars.
"The villain is willing to follow Lord Shi from now on, if you are not at ease, you can use the Forbidden God Bead to control part of my Yuan Shen, so that you are not afraid that the villain will betray you. The man in gray suddenly looked at the door and shouted.
"Senior Mu! I have asked everything that should be asked. Hussele was stunned, and when he looked back, Shi Mu walked in from the door at some point.
"Lord Shi, this cultivator beside you who is not at the peak of the spiritual level, and the villain martial arts practitioner will definitely be more useful to you!" said the gray-clothed messenger quickly.
Hussere's heart was furious. I wanted to stab this messenger to death right now, but Shi Mu stood beside him. He didn't dare to show the thoughts in his heart on his face, and turned his head to look at Shi Mu.
Shi Mu waved his hand. Motioned for Hussele to stand down.
Hu Sailei was shocked, retracted his arms, and threw the gray-clothed middle-aged man's body to the ground, and he retreated to the side.
"Thank you for your kindness, the villain will definitely ...... in the future" The middle-aged man in gray only felt his body loosen, and hurriedly struggled to sit up, his left hand quietly reached into his waist, and held a talisman.
At this moment, a golden light flashed in front of him. Pierced the throat of the gray-clothed middle-aged man.
Burst!
A large hole in his throat was opened, and blood gushed out.
The gray-clothed middle-aged man's eyes bulged out, and he desperately covered his throat, trying to curb the flow of vitality in his body
However, after just a few breaths, the look in the eyes of the gray-clothed middle-aged man had completely disappeared, and his body fell to the ground, without breath.
The golden light flashed, and it slashed the throat of the deacon on the side, slitting his throat as well.
Hussele stared at it all. Didn't speak.
Shi Mu's face was expressionless, he waved his hand to recall the money sword, and then walked to the body of the man in gray and searched for a while. I found a black staff, two or three medicine bottles, and a black jade plate. More than a dozen spirit stones, and a Stygian Moon Order.
The staff is dark and smooth. Like a bamboo, the top is decorated with a black crystal. There were flashes of black electric light inside, and at first glance it was not ordinary.
A dark red moon mark is engraved on the corner of the black jade plate, the material is quite special, I don't know what it is used for.
Aside from this staff and the black jade plate, everything else was ordinary.
In a few medicine bottles are detoxification and healing pills, the quality is very average, and most of the more than a dozen spirit stones are low-grade, and there is only one medium-grade fire attribute spirit stone.
"It's just such a thing...... Shi Mu was a little disappointed, picked up the black jade plate, and played with it.
According to him, this black jade plate is the magic weapon used to record the list of primary candidates. Hussele said.
Shi Mu nodded, picked up the black staff again, and threw it to Hussere.
"It's useless for me to hold this thing, so I'll give it to you. Shi Mu said.
"Thank you, Senior Shi. Hussele was overjoyed, hurriedly caught it, and took it in his hand and rubbed it carefully.
The quality of this staff was more than a cut above his own, and the black crystal at the top of the staff contained pure yin attribute spiritual power.
Shi Mu took off the gray-clothed man's robe again, and kicked the two corpses to Hussere's side with a wave of his foot.
"These two corpses should be good sacrifices for you Moon Cultists, and if you sacrifice them, you should be able to increase your strength a little. Shi Mu said.
"Thank you Senior Mu for your generous gift!" Hu Sailei was stunned for a moment, bowed deeply to Shi Mu, and thanked him.
The cultivation of the owners of these two corpses before their death was not weak, and his strength would inevitably increase greatly after the sacrifice.
Shi Mu waved his hand and stepped aside.
Hussele took something out of his body and excitedly began to set up a sacrificial circle in the room.
The circle was quite complicated, and it took half an hour to complete the arrangement.
Hussele dragged the two corpses into the circle and chanted a spell that emitted a black glow.
Shi Mu stood aside, and with a wave of his sleeve, several talismans flew out and landed in all corners of the room, opening an enchantment, matching the enchantment that Hu Sailei opened at the beginning, completely blocking the mana fluctuations emitted by these Hussailei.
He had seen the sacrifice once, but it was far away and not as clear as it was at this moment.
As Hussere's mouth recited the words, the blood of the Dark Moon in his hand was magnificent, and in an instant, the raging blood-colored flames surging up in the magic circle enveloped the two corpses, and with a flash of light, the two corpses disappeared in the flames.
The next moment, a large area of gray light flew out from the surrounding magic circle and submerged into Hussere's body.
The gray light on his body rolled, fluctuating and tumbling like the waves of the sea, emitting waves of powerful mana fluctuations.
Hussele looked stunned, sat down in place, and closed his eyes.
The gray light around him converged above his head and slowly swirled into a gray swirl the size of a skull.
After a while, the whirlpool gradually stopped spinning and turned into a vague nebula, and a star gradually lit up in the nebula.
Shi Mu watched all this silently, and did not show a look of surprise.
Hu Sailei's cultivation had originally reached the peak of the spirit level warlock, and he was only one chance away from advancing to the star level, and this time he sacrificed two sacrifices whose cultivation was not weak, and it was reasonable for him to break through in cultivation.
It was a full quarter of an hour before Hussele opened his eyes, and the gray light on his body subsided.
He looked at his hands in a daze, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
"Thank you seniors for your success. Hussere bowed to Shi Mushen again.
Shi Mu smiled and waved his hand to throw the gray-clothed man's Dark Moon Order and coat to Hu Sailei.
"Senior Mu is not cowardly. It's just that the disguise technique is just an ordinary small technique, and it's nothing to deceive and deceive the low-level people, if you encounter some poisonous and careful people, I'm afraid you will be able to see through it soon, and it will be a big deal for the seniors. Hussere said.
"It's okay, no one in the city knows this messenger at all, and you just need to pretend for a while, and when I pass the preliminary round, my name will be registered on this jade board. Shi Mu said, and handed the black jade plate to Hu Sailei.
Hu Sailei looked at the black jade plate in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.
He walked into the inner room, and half an hour later, a middle-aged man in a gray robe walked out, still looking a little uneasy.
Shi Mu raised his eyebrows, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, looked Hu Sailei up and down, nodded, and said:
"Not bad. Your disguise technique is enough to confuse the truth, even if it is a close person to the gray-clothed messenger, I am afraid that there will be no flaws. Don't worry, even if there is real trouble, I will solve it for you. ”
"Yes. When Hussele heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then you'll stay here tonight, and I'll go first. Shi Mu nodded to Hussere, waved his hand and withdrew a few talismans arranged in the room.
Shi Mu left here, and quickly returned to his residence, sitting cross-legged on the bed.
Hussere's disguise technique is still very confident, as long as he passes the preliminary round, the rest of the matter will be easy to do.
It's just that why did the Stygian Sect suddenly want to go to the Xihe Continent?
Shi Mu's thoughts turned in his heart, and after a moment, he shook his head, stopped thinking about this, and closed his eyes.
A few days later.
Ten rudimentary rings had been set up on a square outside the inn, and thousands of people had gathered here.
Today is the start of this overseas selection.
Shi Mu blended in the crowd and found an inconspicuous place to stand.
At this moment, a commotion came from the front of the post house.
Shi Mu raised his eyes and saw a thin gray-clothed middle-aged man, accompanied by several deacons of the Stygian Moon Sect, walking out of the post house, and some nearby Stygian Moon Sect disciples saw this and crowded up one after another.
This gray-clothed middle-aged man was naturally pretended by Hussere.
Shi Mu frowned slightly, Hu Sailei still looked a little nervous at the moment, and his steps were slightly stiff.
Hussere's eyes were looking at the crowd around him.
At this moment, among the surrounding crowd, there are not a few star-rank warlocks and innate martial artists, and if he is found to be an impostor, the consequences will be unimaginable......
Hussele thought about it, his heart trembled, and his body trembled slightly.
"Your Excellency, what's wrong with you?" asked a short, stocky deacon of the altar next to him, as if sensing Hussere's strange appearance.
"Oh, nothing. Hussele was startled in his heart and hurriedly said.
A hint of doubt flashed in the short and fat man's eyes, but he didn't ask anything more, which made Hussere breathe a sigh of relief.
"By the way, why don't you see the deacon?" said another deacon suddenly.
"It's true that I haven't seen him since this morning. ”
"Your Excellency, I remember last night that Deacon Quan said that he asked to visit you, do you know his whereabouts?" the stocky man asked.
"Oh...... He came to visit me last night and left very quickly, and I don't know where he went. Hussele said, his tone slightly flustered.
"Stupid, what are you nervous about!" A cold voice suddenly appeared in Hussere's ears, it was Shi Mu's voice. (To be continued.) )
