Volume 1 The Human World Chapter 101 Human Sacrifice
By the eleventh day, Xu Xuan and Xiaoqing were able to shuttle freely through the crowd and fight directly with the pursuers, instead of blindly fleeing and blocking the weapons flying in the sky.
By the sixteenth day, the two of them did not need eyes and ears, they could gradually sense each other's thoughts, and the attack and defense were united, and the sword momentum was like a raging storm, and they began to attack from defense to attack. On the eighteenth day, the combination of the two swords stood out and stabbed four strange men one after another, forcing the pursuers to retreat one after another.
Seeing that these two people were making such rapid progress, every other night, it was like being reborn, and all the Penglai Islanders were shocked and angry, and they raised their spirits to deal with them.
In the next few days, instead of grabbing food, they were killed to the ground, thrilling, thanks to the young man in Tsing Yi who pretended to be invincible several times and released a way to live, so he was able to pick up his life.
The attitude of the young man in Tsing Yi seemed to be friend but not foe, which was beyond the expectations of the two. Instead of going around to publicize that Xiaoqing was the descendant of Nuwa, he also did his best to help each other secretly, and sometimes even took advantage of the dead of night to sneak into the bushes outside the cave and leave them some cooked meat, vegetables and fruits. But the more he did this, the more he aroused Xiaoqing's annoyance, and the more ruthless he became.
There were more and more strange people gathered around the cave, at least four hundred. These people, who had been divided in the valley and did not interact with each other, were united by the same hatred.
The islanders elected a tall and thin old man with white hair and long beard as the leader of the alliance, this man was blind and weak, but every time he spoke, the noise around him immediately stopped, and everyone listened respectfully.
Since the arrival of this blind man, the layout and formation of the Penglai Islanders have changed dramatically, no longer spontaneously encircling and pursuing, but every time they set up ambushes and roundabout raids, killing Xu Xuan and the others by surprise, and they did not dare to go deep into the mountains and forests for several days.
Compared with the rapid entry of Xu Xuan and the others, Lin Lingsu and Li Shaowei recovered extremely slowly, and only the second pulse of Ren Du could barely channel the true qi among the eight veins of the Qi Sutra.
Li Shaowei's cultivation of "Cathode True" went crazy, he was afraid of light and heat, and it was really difficult to operate during the day, so he could only breathe after sunset, and the progress was even slower, and after nearly a month, he still couldn't get up and move around. Although Lin Lingsu's limbs can move freely, his breath is unsustainable, and with a little effort, he sweats profusely and is tired.
The slower the recovery of the two demons, the more relieved Xu Xuan and Xiaoqing naturally were. But life and death are connected, day and night together, and the vigilance, hatred and fear between the four of them have gradually weakened a lot with the passage of time, and even gradually have a little bit of friendship similar to that of master and apprentice.
Thinking of the powerful Demon Emperor and Demon Queen trapped here, like a wasted person, Xu Xuan's heart was happy, but he couldn't help but flash a few unspeakable sourness and pity. However, when I thought of my parents, Ge Zhenren, and Bai Suzhen, these pities turned into anger again.
On this day, the sun was setting, the sunset was like fire, and Xu Xuan and Xiaoqing swept into the mountains and forests side by side as usual to find food.
But I saw the bonfire swaying, the burnt fragrance was permeated, and the boar and elk on the grill were roasted black and yellow, but there was no one around. Just as he was suspicious, thinking that he had been ambushed by the white-haired old man again, he suddenly heard a loud "boom", and the red light in the valley in the south rose to the sky, the gongs and drums were loud, and a mournful and tragic roar and beast roar sounded.
Then the sky shook, the hoofs rolled, and under the expulsion of those strange people, thousands of monsters were rolling through the mountains and valleys like a tide, roaring towards them.
The beasts were so hot that they swept up the grassy slopes of the valley in a blink of an eye. Xu Xuan and Xiaoqing didn't have time to think about it, they hurriedly grabbed the roast boar and swept back as if flying.
The two of them rushed into the cave, thinking that the people of Penglai Islander would retreat as usual, but unexpectedly, the horn was high, and those people continued to chase the beasts and drove straight in.
The sound of "Xiu Xiu Xiu" was loud, arrows flew randomly, spears broke through the air, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of fierce beasts were nailed to death on the grassy slope.
The beasts roared in horror and rushed up the slope desperately, but when they reached eight or nine feet from the entrance of the cave, the beasts at the forefront seemed to be frightened, and they all stood up and let out a terrible roar.
The green and giant elephants in the rear couldn't hold back and collided one after another. The beasts were suddenly in chaos, trampling each other, tearing together like crazy, miserable. Several lion tigers were even lifted into the air and slammed into the mountain wall, their flesh and blood blurred.
Xu Xuan and Xiao Qing are cold-haired, once these crazy beasts rush into the cave, even if they have the ability to reach the sky, they are bound to be trampled into meat sauce
Lin Lingsu didn't seem to be afraid, and laughed: "These guys also have some filial piety, for fear of starving to death, they will personally send us game......
Before the words fell, there was another "boom" and a violent earthquake, and the gongs, drums, and horns stopped in unison. Without the drumming, the beasts woke up from a dream and fled in all directions. Piles of hillock-like corpses were left on the slope of the cave entrance.
The four or five hundred Penglai islanders rushed up the slope until they were three feet away from the entrance of the cave, and the inner and outer three layers surrounded the cave.
Unlike usual, everyone was naked, with strange patterns smeared with blood on their chests and faces, and their expressions were sad and frightened. They turned a blind eye to the four people in the cave, and drew their long knives and axes one after another, disemboweling the beasts on the ground, and cutting out animal beads of different sizes and piling them at the entrance of the cave.
More than a dozen beasts that had never died were sliced open alive, roaring in pain, struggling and biting like crazy. The strange people around them immediately rushed forward and held it down, and blood shot out, splashing all over their faces and bodies, as hideous as fierce demons.
Xu Xuan had never seen such a bloody and brutal picture, and it was terrifying. Xiao Qing's face was also a little pale, and he clenched his long sword and leaned towards him unconsciously.
But more than fear, there was more shock, wondering why they had driven so many fierce beasts to the entrance of the cave and dissected the beast beads.
Then I listened to the long blow of the sad horn, and the strange people parted like a tide to the sides, and eight big men carried a pair of young men and women high towards the cave.
The pair of boys and girls were tightly bound by chains all over their bodies, like rice dumplings. The boy was about sixteen or seventeen years old, shirtless, his face full of anger, struggling and scolding; The girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in a purple skirt from the Tang Dynasty, with her eyes closed and her beautiful face full of tears.
It was she Xu Xuan's heart sank, and she was furious, I don't know why these Penglai Islanders sent the purple-clothed girl here? Did they find out that she was smuggling her flute and food?
Suddenly, the young man shouted in a loud voice, "Are you barbarians impatient? This king is the son of Wanyan Zongbi, the marshal of the capital of the Dajin Kingdom, and will not let me go again, and when the fleet of the Dajin Kingdom finds me here, this place will be burned to scorched earth, you will be uprooted, and the nine clans will be wiped out."
Xu Xuan was stunned for a moment, only to find out that this person shaved his head and braided his hair, and it turned out to be the little prince of Jin Guo who went to sea with Wang Wenqing
Lin Lingsu laughed and said, "Little Tartar, aren't you looking for the Heaven Refining Stone Diagram to destroy Zhao Song?" Qinglong has been sealed by Nuwa for thousands of years, and he must know it clearly. These people sent you into the belly of the green dragon, you can just ask the roundworm in its belly, if you know, remember to tell us. ”
When the little prince of Jin Guo recognized them, he became even more angry, blushed, and cursed in Jurchen words.
Seeing that Jin Wushu's son ended up like this, Xu Xuan's heart was very happy, but when he recalled the meaning of Lin Lingsu's words, his cold hair stood on end, and he lost his voice: "Qinglong? Are you saying that these two people were sacrificed to the green dragon?
Lin Lingsu said with a smile: "Qinglong is sealed at the foot of Penglai Mountain, only on the night of the full moon will wake up once, hungry and furious, ferocious, and if you don't stuff its virgins between your teeth, Thirty-three Mountains are afraid that they will be overturned by it." Hehe, if this is not the place where the Qinglong is sacrificed, why is the cave wall covered with blood? Why didn't these people dare to take half a step closer? ”
Xu Xuan and Xiaoqing remembered that when they first arrived here, they met the pair of young men and women who were devoured by the green dragon at the entrance of the cave, and suddenly realized.
Li Shaowei sighed and said, "The blood of a boy and a girl is the best way to quench thirst, but I don't know if this little Tartar is a boy or not." If Qinglong felt deceived, it would be even more terrifying to get angry. ”
Lin Lingsu said hesitantly: "Qinglong hates Nuwa to the core, as long as there is snake blood in the human sacrifice, it can calm its anger." As for the boy, whether it was real or fake, it was just an add-on. ”
The two of you are confident, just like chatting about some ordinary family routines, and they are not afraid at all.
The more Xu Xuan listened, the more awe-inspiring he became, according to this, this purple-clothed girl was used as a human sacrifice, not because of her friendship with him, but because of Nuwa's blood. So, what about the young man in Tsing Yi who is inseparable from her? Could it be that he is also a descendant of the Serpent Clan? That's why that night when I heard Xiaoqing claiming to be the descendant of Nuwa, I was so surprised, and even secretly helped?
After Xiaoqing swallowed the "Yuanying Jindan", the seven emotions and six desires were all sprouted, and after going down the mountain, he walked all the way with the demon queen, and he knew nothing about men and women, listening to their left sentence "virgin", right sentence "virgin", his face was slightly hot, and he couldn't help but interject: "Since you know that this is the Qinglong altar, why don't you tell us earlier?" It's better to fight to the death with these weirdos than to be ...... by Qinglong" Before the words fell, my heart suddenly shook and I understood the sinister intentions of these two demons
She is a snake demon who has been cultivating for five hundred years, and Xu Xuan is a virgin body, which is simply a green dragon human sacrifice made in heaven
Although these two demons controlled themselves with the "Three Corpses Golden Thread Gu" and relied on her and Xu Xuan for food, they were always on guard against them in their hearts. With their pair of "human sacrifices" as substitute ghosts, even if Qinglong comes, the two demons can save their lives. After all, when the four of them made an oath, they only said that they would not kill each other, but they did not say that they would protect each other from being filled by the green dragon.
