The human skin lantern suddenly extinguished when it touched General Lei's blood, causing Gu Yu to be counterattacked, and his qi and blood flowed backwards, vomiting blood one after another.

The prince took Gu Yu in his arms, turned his head to General Lei and said, "General Lei, you take the men and horses to use this place as a point to search around, and if you can hide five girls without being discovered, it can be seen that it will not be a small place." ”

"Yes!" General Lei immediately led people to search the surroundings.

At this time, Nangong Yu and Yuan Lang appeared.

Nangong Yu pushed the prince away without saying a word, hugged Gu Yu in his arms and said, "How are you?" ”

Gu Yu already felt a little dizzy at this time, but he still insisted: "It's okay." You guys just followed the human skin lantern all the way, did anything special happen? ”

"There's nothing out of the ordinary, why did this lantern go out?" Nangong Yu said.

"Originally, we chased the human skin lantern to a ruined temple in front, but it suddenly turned around and flew over, and when we chased after us, we saw you!" Yuan Lang added.

"There's a ruined temple ahead?" Gu Yu asked strangely: "This place is only seven or eight miles away from the city gate, and I haven't seen a broken temple here before!" Take me to see it! ”

Nangong Yu helped Gu Yu get on the horse, and the group arrived at the place that Yuan Lang said. The surrounding area is clearly a wilderness, and there is no broken temple at all!

"What's going on?" Yuan Lang was anxious, "It's obviously here just now, and there is a broken temple." It says Garanji Temple! Lord, have you seen it too? ”

Nangong Yu nodded and said, "That's right, there was indeed a broken temple here just now!" ”

Gu Yu frowned: "You shouldn't have fallen for someone else's illusion, right?" Didn't you just come all the way and encounter anything else? Or who is it? ”

"Sure no!" Nangong Yu said.

"That's weird!" Gu Yu stretched out his hand for Nangong Yu to take him off the horse.

Nangong Yu has been half-hugging and half-supporting Gu Yu, walking a few steps around, due to the heavy snow before, the snow around is still very deep, and the ice is very thick in the middle of the night. A semi-circular moon hung in the sky, and the Big Dipper was unusually bright.

Gu Yu looked at the Big Dipper in the sky, and then looked at the surrounding environment, the north was about ten miles away from the city gate, and the southwest was a continuous mountain range. Tzu An Monastery is on the highest hill. To the east, there are plains for dozens of miles, and further east are some small hills. Due south is the official road.

In the middle of the night, there was a dead silence everywhere, only the creaking sound of Gu Yu and a few people stepping on the ice and snow.

Gu Yu suddenly thought of something, and she hurriedly asked the prince, "His Royal Highness the Prince, was there a legend here many years ago?" ”

The prince was stunned for a moment when she asked this, and then thought about it carefully and said: "When I was young, I seemed to have heard a legend and story, and I can't remember exactly what Bengong said, but it should be a woman's story!" ”

"The story told by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the legend of Garan Temple!" General Lei rushed over and happened to hear the prince's words, so he said, "The children of your generation may not have heard the legend of the Garan Temple. This has been going on for more than 200 years, and there was indeed a temple in the vicinity, Garan. However, this temple is not inhabited by monks, but by nuns. The enshrinement is also a woman, and legend has it that this woman came from out of town. It's not from the capital, but it is known that it is from the east, and no one knows where it is. This woman had promised her husband's family when she was in a layman's house, and later her husband entered Beijing to catch the exam and became the champion, and returned to his hometown to pick up the woman into Beijing, but he didn't expect that the champion was robbed by bandits on the way and was killed. The woman was ruined by the bandits, and she committed suicide by jumping off the cliff, but she didn't expect that she didn't die after jumping off the cliff. Instead, she was saved by the Bodhisattva, and from then on the woman escaped into the empty door, preaching the scriptures and teachings everywhere, and persuading people to do good. This woman was very respected by the people, and everyone raised funds to build a small temple for her here, and she became the presiding officer of this Garan temple. At that time, the incense was very strong. ”

"Then why did it fall into depression?" Yuan Lang asked.

"Once, the lady who came to this temple to incense brought her daughter with her, wanting to get a good marriage for her daughter, but she didn't expect that the girl had disappeared in the temple. At that time, the government intervened in the investigation, but did not find any clues. In the end, the matter was settled. General Lei let out a long sigh and continued: "Later, the number of missing girls in this Garan Temple has accumulated to dozens of people. The government announced the closure of the Garan Temple, and searched the inside and outside of the Garan Temple, and finally found that there was a secret passage leading to the outside world behind the statue of the main hall of the Garan Temple. After entering the secret passage, the officers and soldiers walked for several miles until they reached the end. It was a huge cave, and all the missing girls were hiding in that cave. It's just that those girls are ......"

When General Lei said this, he suddenly stopped, and then said, "I know where they are!" ”

The rest of the people were all stunned, only Gu Yuqiang supported his weak body, pointed to the southwest and said, "In that direction!" ”

"Yes, come with me!" General Lei was anxious to find his beloved daughter, and took the lead in getting on his horse and galloping towards the southwest.

Galloping all the way to the foot of the mountain, General Lei dismounted and said: "According to the legend of the year, the missing girls in the Garan Temple were all hidden in a cave. Those maidens were sacrificed by the presiding officer of Garan Temple, using the blood of the maidens and their pure bodies to sacrifice to the snake demons who cultivated in the mountains. It turned out that the host jumped off the cliff before he died because he was possessed by a snake demon, and she used the excuse of purifying sentient beings and promoting Buddhism to attract the attention of the people, and then took the opportunity to deceive the girl. ”

"Isn't the missing girl the work of Lin Sanren?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said.

"It's hard to say. The snake demon of the past has long been destroyed, and now I am afraid that some people will follow suit! General Ray walked towards the mountain.

Gu Yu shouted: "Wait a minute! ”

Nangong Yu looked at Gu Yu's weak appearance, felt a little distressed in her heart, hugged her and said, "What's wrong?" If you can't hold on, this king will take you back now! ”

"Someone has cast a formation in front, you all retreat! Let me. Gu Yu said that he was about to move forward, but Nangong Yu grabbed her and said, "Don't be strong, this king is here!" ”

Nangong Yu handed Gu Yu over to Yuan Lang to support, and took a few steps forward by himself. Further back, someone had cast a formation, but this formation was simply vulnerable in Nangong Yu's eyes.

However, Nangong Yu didn't want to show his strength, so he pretended to walk back and forth a few times, and seemed to work very hard to make a few false moves, and finally stomped his foot hard, and the formation was broken. Nangong Yu pretended to take a few steps forward tentatively, and finally turned his head and said, "No problem!" ”

Others may think that it is not easy for Nangong Yu to break the formation, but only Gu Yu saw his pretentious posture. The curiosity about Nangong Yu in my heart became stronger and stronger. This prince is really hidden, just by stomping those two feet, Gu Yu can sense that there is a huge mystery hidden in it.

Nangong Yu returned to Gu Yu's side and carried Gu Yu directly on his back. At first, Gu Yu refused, but she heard Nangong Yu whispering in her ear: "If you refuse, the king will definitely punish you severely when you go back!" ”

He specially increased the word "punishment", Gu Yu understood the deep meaning of the sentence, hurriedly climbed on his back, and let him carry himself forward. She didn't want to be punished like that, although that kind of "punishment" was sometimes quite comfortable for herself......

Gu Yu was lying on Nangong Yu's back, whispering in his ear, actually pointing the way, because Gu Yu had no strength and his voice was very small, so Nangong Yu relayed it.

It didn't take long for everyone to come to a hole where weeds were growing, and this hole seemed to be only big enough for one person to pass through, and it was very narrow. In addition, there is a half-human-tall thatch growing in front of the entrance to the cave, so if you don't pay attention, you won't notice that there is a hole here.

Gu Yu said: "I look at the celestial phenomena and terrain trends, and it is very likely that this is the place. Although I can't open the eyes of the sky, I can sense that the demonic spirit here is very heavy! ”

Nangong Yu knew in his heart that what Gu Yu said was right, because he had been observing, and this place was indeed surrounded by demonic energy. It is very likely that there is a big demon hidden.

"Everyone, be careful, Yuanlang, you go ahead and open the way!" Nangong Yu commanded!

"General Ben opens the way!" General Lei couldn't hold back for a long time, so he led the first cave, and instructed the queen of Yuanlang to protect the prince and the prince!

"You put me down!" Gu Yu whispered.

"Don't move!" Nangong Yu said softly: "You settle down, don't make trouble!" ”

Hearing him say this, Gu Yu naturally knew what he meant, so he obediently lay on his back.

Nangong Yu's body has a faint aroma, like the smell of blue musk, it smells very good, his back is very broad, and Gu Yu's thin body looks more and more petite and pitiful lying on it. Nangong Yu's long black satin-like hair was pulled to the side by Gu Yu so as not to crush him. Lying on his back actually felt safe and steady. Such a wonderful feeling made Gu Yu's little head unconsciously rub Nangong Yu's neck.

Originally, Gu Yu was lying on his back, and the soft plump place pressed on Nangong Yu's back, which was enough to make Nangong Yu's heart beat faster, and all kinds of beautiful pictures in his mind. Gu Yu's unconscious small movements just now made Nangong Yu's mind ripple even more, only to feel that somewhere in his heart was soft, as if there was a spring breeze blowing through the warm and soft, Nangong Yu's heart rippled, and a thought flashed in his mind: This king's little wild cat can only be this king's forever!

General Lei led the way in front, and it was convenient to suddenly open up and have a hole not long before leaving. The cave is three feet high, and the space is large enough to build a courtyard. The water was dripping from above, very damp, and a cold, fishy smell hit everyone, and everyone covered their mouths and noses.

Gu Yu said: "It should be here!" ”

General Lei hurriedly asked several guards to search to see what was in the cave.

"General!" Soon one of the guards shouted, "There's a corpse here!" ”

General Lei was shocked in his heart, he was afraid that it would be Lei Jiani's corpse, so he was stunned and didn't dare to move forward!

However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stepped forward to check and said, "It's a man!" ”

General Lei immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stepped forward, sure enough, it was a man's corpse.

"Looking at the clothes, it looks like a resident of the mountains, who has been dead for at least a month. The cause of death was that something bit his throat! Look at the wound may be a beast, everyone be careful! "General Lei carefully examined it!

"General, there's another corpse here, it's a woman!" Another guard found the body.

This time and again, the light of the torches was relatively dim, and after careful searching, there were eleven corpses here, which was incredible. The corpses were both male and female, and the cause of death was a beast that had bitten their throats off.

There was an inexplicable trace of fear in everyone's hearts, and they cautiously continued to move forward. But just after walking a few steps, he heard a terrible shout "Ah......"

It was clearly a woman's voice, and it was very miserable, and the source of the sound was ahead. General Ray rushed over first. The others also followed, but Nangong Yu carried Gu Yu on his back but took a closer look here before slowly walking forward!

"Why don't you seem to be in a hurry?" Gu Yu asked.

"It's useless to be anxious, it's better to be careful!" Nangong Yu glanced up at the dark roof of the cave and couldn't see anything. But for some reason, I always felt that there was something strange on the top of the cave!

Arriving at the front, General Ray stopped. It turned out that there was a huge altar in front of it, and in the center of the altar there was a white marble carved with a giant dragon, and the jade pillar was so high that you couldn't see the head at a glance, and it looked like it was going to pestle to the sky!

At this time, a young girl was tied to the jade pillar, the veins of her two wrists were cut, and blood was flowing from her wrists, dripping into the complicated grooves on the altar, slowly flowing.

General Ray, in a hurry to save people, rushed to the altar and wanted to cut the rope that bound the girl. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped on the altar, the altar suddenly became faster. And the blood on the girl's wrist flowed faster and faster.

Nangong Yu stopped: "General, don't be impulsive!" ”

At this moment, a white light suddenly flashed on the altar and hit General Lei's body. Hearing only a "bang", General Lei was hit by the white light and fell to the ground.

"General!" Several guards hurriedly stepped forward to help General Lei up.

"Can you see what it was?" The prince asked Nangong Yu.

"Looks like a ......"

Before Nangong Yu finished speaking, another white light came over, this time the target was His Royal Highness the Prince, Nangong Yu hurriedly pushed the prince away and slapped him with a palm. The white light was actually beaten by Nangong Yu and flew out, hitting the altar hard.

At this time, everyone saw that it was not light at all, but a snow-white lightning mink, the speed of the little thing was extremely fast, and the snow-white fur curled up as if it was a white light.

The lightning marten was injured by Nangong Yu's palm and fell on the altar, struggling to get up and get up and ready to run, but was stabbed by Yuan Lang's sword and fell on the altar, the blood on his body stained the snow-white fur red!

"Who dares to hurt my lightning marten!" A cold voice came, and a wall behind the altar opened, and out came a woman dressed in red with snow-white hair.

The crane's hair and childish face, coupled with the blood-red dress, look extremely weird in this environment. Several guards raised their swords in their hands and asked in a trembling voice, "Are you a human or a ghost?" ”

"Hmph, this seat is not a human or a ghost!" The white-haired woman in red was very fast, and as soon as she finished speaking, she reached in front of one of the guards, and stretched out one and grabbed the guard's neck. Just heard the "click", the guard had already broken his neck and lost his breath.

The white-haired woman in red took a deep breath and sucked away a wisp of white Shouyuan from the guard. This scene is not visible to ordinary people. However, Gu Yu could see it. Nangong Yu can also see it.

The white-haired woman in red turned around, stood on the altar, held the lightning marten in her arms, and gently stroked the wound that was stabbed by Yuan Lang, and the wound slowly healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Gu Yu lay on Nangong Yu's body, watching all this quietly, she felt that this white-haired and red-clothed woman was not simple, and they were not opponents at all.

"Trespassing on the territory of this seat, are you rushing to offer sacrifices?" The woman smiled sadly.

"Demon girl, were the five missing girls in the city captured by you? Let them go! General Lei pointed his sword at the woman and glared at her.

"She's the one you're looking for?" The white-haired and red-clothed woman pointed to the girl tied to the jade pillar and asked.

General Lei and the crown prince glanced at each other, this girl didn't know whose family it was, and she didn't report her disappearance. But, no matter what, if a girl appears here for blood sacrifice, this demon girl must have done all the bad things.

"Although she is not the person we are looking for, but you actually used her as a blood sacrifice, it can be seen that she must have been captured by you." The prince said coldly.

"Since she's not, what about her?" The white-haired woman in red raised her hand slightly, and a light flashed, and she saw the girl's body hanging on the top of the cave. Blood fell drop by drop, and it turned out that the cave was damp, and the roof of the cave was not dripping with water, but the blood of these people.

Everyone felt that their scalps were numb, and there were hundreds of corpses of young girls, all of whom had been pierced through their backs by an iron hook and hung on the roof of the cave, and blood was dripping down one by one. Those who died must have died when their blood was drained.

"Demon girl, you actually killed so many people!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince clenched his fists, he didn't expect such a tragic thing to happen in a cave so close to the capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven. This woman's sin is unforgivable, and she really deserves a thousand cuts!

"I didn't force them, they all volunteered!" The white-haired woman in red walked around the altar with a lightning marten in her arms, and then asked the girl who was tied to the jade pillar, "Tell them if you are willing to dedicate yourself to this seat?" ”

The girl nodded, and replied weakly, "The slave is willing!" ”

"You trespassed into this cave today, injured the lightning mink of this seat, and destroyed the altar of blood sacrifice. Don't think about leaving any of you......" As soon as the white-haired woman in red finished speaking, she saw a flash of red light, and another guard was sucked away by her, and then broke her neck casually. Moreover, this woman did not stop, her body shook a few times, and several people were brutally murdered.

General Lei saw that several of his subordinates were killed by the demon girl one after another, and he suddenly became furious, and stabbed at her with a long sword in his hand.

The white-haired woman in red was very powerful, and before General Lei's sword reached her body, she waved her big hand, and a palm wind swept General Lei out and fell heavily to the ground.

Yuan Lang followed closely behind, and rushed forward with two brothers from the Black Gate, Yuan Lang and the three of them were all masters around Nangong Yu, the white-haired woman in red was holding the lightning marten in one hand, and the three of them were facing Yuan Lang with one hand, and it was not effortless at all.

I saw a few hidden weapons flying out of her sleeve and shooting towards them. Yuan Lang flew up, and the long swords in his hands flew one after another, knocking those hidden weapons to the ground. Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly swept by a palm wind, and Yuan Lang was beaten out by her without paying attention. And the two black ones were kicked out by the woman, one was seriously injured and the other flew upside down for more than ten meters before falling heavily to the ground.

Gu Yu, who was lying on Nangong Yu's back, secretly observed the tricks of the white-haired woman in red, and when the woman flew up and kicked the brother who flew away, Gu Yu had already thrown out the dozens of poisonous needles in his sleeve, which almost exhausted Gu Yu's strength.

It's just that the woman is very powerful, although she didn't expect Gu Yu to sneak attack her, but when she saw the dozen or so poisonous needles flying in, she just waved her sleeves and blocked them all.

"The embroidery needle of black witchcraft, little girl, what do you have to do with Dieyi?" The woman pinched a poisonous needle, looked at it and said, "This needle can't be played!" ”

Gu Yu took a deep breath and said slowly, "Which faction is the senior?" ”

"Senpai? Hehehehe...... the woman looked up to the sky and laughed, "Is this seat very old?" ”

As soon as the words fell, another slap came, Nangong Yu dodged the palm with Gu Yu's footsteps on his back, and swept it over, and the woman suddenly laughed: "Yes, it turns out that there is still a handsome little offspring hidden!" ”

"Red Immortal Sect Master, it turns out that you are not dead yet. Escaping from Lanxue to Nanli, the journey is extremely difficult, right? Nangong Yu said coldly.

"Who are you?" The Red Immortal Sect Master immediately looked at Nangong Yu vigilantly, but he didn't expect this man to know quite a lot.

"Nangong Yu!"

"Hmph, it's you!" The Red Immortal Sect Master sneered, "It's this seat that is clumsy, I should have thought that I could find someone here, naturally it's not easy!" ”

"We really have no intention of breaking in today, but the sect leader is afraid that his whereabouts have been revealed here, otherwise how could someone deliberately lure me here? Apparently the man wanted to lure us here and kill us by the master's hand. Nangong Yu thought for a moment, and said lightly: "If the sect leader insists on killing us, then we have to fight to the death, this king has no other skills, this fight is the only hobby of this king." The Sect Master is recuperating now, and I think we still have a chance to make a chance! ”

"You're threatening me?" The Red Immortal Sect Master sneered, "Just a few of you, and you also want to escape from the hands of this seat?" It's just whimsical! ”

"You naturally have the ability to kill us, but in this way, it not only delays your Fa, but also consumes your motivation, and the gains outweigh the losses!" Nangong Yu said: "Let's take a step back, tonight we will treat it as if we have never been here." The cave house here has long been targeted by others, and this king advises the sect leader to move out as soon as possible! ”

When the prince heard this, he was not happy. He didn't understand why Nangong Yu wanted to bow his head to this demon girl, no matter how powerful she was, couldn't she still win a game by joining forces with Nangong Yu on her own? Thinking of this, the prince glanced at Nangong Yu, and just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Nangong Yu with his eyes.

The Red Immortal Sect Master naturally saw the small movements of the two of them, she gently stroked the lightning marten's head with one hand, and her eyes swept over Nangong Yu and Gu Yu sharply.

And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unwilling, so many people here have died tragically, and no one in the capital knows about it, could it be that these people were all caught by the Red Hell Sect Master somewhere else? This girl's disappearance may be among these people, who knows if the Red Immortal Sect Master has done anything to those girls?

However, Nangong Yu affirmed that the Red Immortal Sect Master had nothing to do with the girl's disappearance. He proposed to take a step back with the sect leader in order to protect everyone.

The Red Hades Sect Master glanced at the girl on the altar, who had passed out from blood loss.

The Red Underworld Sect Master was about to promise Nangong Yu and prepare to let them leave, but he didn't expect General Lei to quietly approach the Red Immortal Sect Master at some point, and stabbed directly at the Red Immortal Sect Master with a long sword in his hand.

The Red Immortal Sect Master waved his sleeves and slapped General Lei's body with a palm. And the sword in General Lei's hand tightly pierced the Red Hades Sect Master's clothes, and she herself was not injured.

However, General Lei's move directly angered the Red Immortal Sect Master, and the lightning marten in her arms took the initiative to climb onto her shoulder, and then the Red Immortal Sect Leader opened his hands, chanted a spell in his mouth, and muttered a mouth, and suddenly the corpses of the hundreds of girls above the top of the cave all shook, and a gust of yin wind blew through thin air, and those corpses slowly lowered, one with teeth and claws, and the nails of his hands were long and sharp, and he pounced towards Nangong Yu and the others......
