Chapter 9: The Secret of the Underground (Asking for a Red Ticket Collection)

The three of them glanced at each other, and Kyungsheng was the first to walk into the entrance of the cave, and there was a stone staircase down the entrance of the cave.

After the three of them saw the lights, their spirits couldn't help but perk, and after the stairs were finished, it was a one-and-a-half-person high, about two parallel passages wide, and there were short torches inserted in the walls of the passage, and the firelight jumping on the torches pulled the backs of the three of them strangely, and the gloomy surroundings made the three of them feel a little heartbeat.

There was no one to guard the passage, and the three of them walked with their own hearts. Soon, the passage slowly widened, and finally after the three of them had walked for a quarter of an hour, they saw the exit. As they approached the exit, the three of them finally heard a sound other than the sound of their footsteps, which was not loud, like the sound of insects and ants gnawing on grass and trees.

Xu Mo leaned against the wall of the exit and secretly looked inside, only to see that after the letter was out, there was an empty circular space, about ten times the size of an ordinary room. The cave was surrounded not by walls, but by prison doors, which were shadowed by many prisoners. On the opposite side of the corridor they were on, there were three other dimly branching passages, and they didn't know where they led.

There were few guards in the cave, only five or six, dressed in large black robes, covered with black cloth, and carrying a short scimitar like a farmer's sickle for harvesting wheat. However, the attention of all three was not focused on the cells and the guards, but all looked at a large pool in the center of the cave in disbelief.

The large pool is like the public bath in Xu Mo's real-world sauna, and is made of black stones to form a large circular pool with a diameter of about five meters and a height of about one meter. In the center of the pool, there is a long sword hung by iron cables, half of the sword body is soaked in the pool water, the hilt is shaped like a dragon's head, and the dragon's eye is inlaid with two brilliant red gems, shining in the light of the torches around it.

However, Xu Mo's attention was not on this sword, but on the water in the pool soaked in the sword. The water was so thick that the breeze blowing through the channel could not stir up the slightest ripple of the pool. The water in the pool is dark red, and there are some small red bubbles on the surface, and the strong fishy smell makes the three people who are more than ten meters away from the pool cover their noses.

The color is dark red, the texture is dense, the smell is fishy, and among the liquid that the three of them are familiar with, there is only one kind of pool water like the pool in front of them, blood! This big pool in the cave is like a pool of blood!

While the three of them were looking at each other in disbelief, there were some changes in the quiet cave, and one of the guards made a few gestures to the other guards, and two of the guards walked to the cells around the cave.

After only a few low sobs, two black-robed guards lifted the two prisoners from a cell. Due to the distance between the cells and the dim lighting, the three did not see the two prisoners clearly at first.

When the two prisoners were lifted to the edge of the blood pool, the three of them finally saw the appearance of the two prisoners clearly, and they were immediately surprised. The two prisoners, dressed in wide linen prison clothes and barefoot, with their faces covered by the stray hair on their heads, snuggled up to each other and sobbed quietly.

If the gray prison clothes were worn on someone of Xu Mo's stature, it could only be said that it fit just right, but wearing these two prisoners, it did look extremely wide, so wide that an ordinary person-sized prison clothes covered the prisoner's knees, plus the prisoner's exposed delicate limbs, although Xu Mo and the three of them couldn't see their faces clearly, they could also know that these were two underage children!

At this point, two guards lifted the child to the pool of blood, and the other guard pinched the child's chin with his hand, forcibly lifted his little head, and placed a short scimitar in the shape of a sickle under his neck.

"Rats, dare!"

"You dare!"

"Keep people under the knife!"

……

When Xu Mo and the three of them saw this, they still didn't understand where the blood in that blood pool came from, originally the three of them only thought it was the blood of livestock, but now it seems that the blood in this blood pool is completely in these cells, and it is very likely that it is the blood of young children or teenagers who are not yet weak crowns.

Among the three, the first to pounce on the letter was Gao Yan, whose short body jumped out with asymmetrical agility, but the first person to rescue the immature child was Kyungsheng.

I saw that this young man, who was usually like an elegant scholar, like a falcon fluttering on food, grabbed to the side of the blood pool with a vertical leap, stretched out his palm, and had already grabbed the arm of the black-robed guard holding the knife. Then, a cold light flashed from Qingsheng's wide sleeves, and the black-robed guard immediately froze in place, and Qingsheng let go of the guard and pulled the young boy to his side.

After the boy left the guard's grasp, the guard's mouth let out a few "gurgling" sounds, and then a blood mark slowly appeared in his throat, and then the blood stain cracked into a large gap, and the blood gushed out like a fountain of blood, and the frozen body fell to the ground limply, and his eyes lost focus.

Kyungseung's wide sleeves were hidden with a sharp weapon, and the moment he caught the guard just now, he slashed him with lightning speed.

At this time, Gao Yan also pounced in front of another black-robed guard holding the boy hostage, and pressed his big fan-like hand on the guard's face wearing a black cloth. I saw this stout man, with five fingers closed, and the guard's head was like a pinched tomato, and red and white things gushed out from the gaps between his fingers.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Xu Mo smiled helplessly, turned around and pounced on the other remaining guards.

In a few moments, the few guards in the cave were all corpses. The guards who were killed by Qingsheng, in addition to the bloodstains on the vital parts, can basically keep the whole corpse, and the guards who were killed by Gao Yan or Xu Mo are much more miserable, either their limbs are twisted into shapes that ordinary people can't pose, or their heads are broken like rotten fruit.

Strange to say, when these black-robed guards were attacked and killed, although they also fled in panic, none of them shouted for help. However, after the black cloth covering their faces was lifted, Xu Mo and the three knew why they didn't ask for help. The faces of these black-robed guards were festering, their faces were completely disfigured, and their tongues had been pulled out, and they were all disfigured mutes.

The three of them were in the dim and gloomy underground cave, and they couldn't help but feel a creepy feeling when they looked at these black-robed guards who were disfigured and plucked out their tongues. After calming down slightly, Xu Mo began to look for the keys to the cells on the bodies of these guards, while Kyungsheng softly comforted the two frightened and sobbing children.

Two children, a boy and a girl, looked closely, they were no more than seven or eight years old, probably having been detained for a long time, and both of them looked a little dazed, looking at the three of them at a loss.

After Xu Mo searched for the cell door key, he and Gao gradually opened the cell one by one, and the cells were all boys and girls, a total of thirty-six people. These boys looked at Xu Mo and Gao Yan in fear, and did not resist, but still carried them out of the cell one by one by the two and concentrated them in the open space of the cave.

Dressed in ragged prison uniforms, the children were skinny, their faces were gray, their eyes were dull, and they were at a loss as to what to do after being rescued from their cells. Children of their age were supposed to be playing under their parents' knees, but now they were being raised like cattle in such a gloomy underground cell, and finally slaughtered and bled like chickens.

Looking at the miserable appearance of these children, at this moment, whether it was Qingsheng, Gao Yan, or Xu Mo, who was a reincarnation, the faces of the three of them were gloomy as if they were about to drip water, and an irrepressible anger rose from the hearts of the three of them.

After a long silence, Qingsheng took the lead and said, "This place is not suitable for a long time!" We need to make a decision early! ”

"I'm afraid this matter is inseparable from the Yang royal family, but I don't know if the teacher knows about it or not?" Gao said in a hoarse voice.

"Yang Ye brought the three of us into the mansion here in the morning, and he was not hindered in the slightest, he must know about it!" Xu Mo looked up at the two of them and said coldly.

Seeing that Qingsheng and Gao gradually fell silent, Xu Mo continued to say coldly:

"You are a disciple of Yang Ye, if you continue to meddle in this matter, you will be a traitor, Nie Li is just a guest, and the bellows diagram has already paid for the grace of his life. Nie Li wants to save these innocent boys, if the two of them want to obstruct them, they will do it! ”

"Although a certain is just a reckless man, he also knows that the husband has something to do and something not to do, if Yang Ye is really related to this matter, the traitor will betray the teacher, even if it is pointed out by the thousand husbands, he will not regret it!" Gao gradually shook his head and smiled bitterly. He was coarse and detailed, how could he not have thought that Yang Ye was definitely related to this matter, and he no longer called him a teacher.

Xu Mo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Gao gradually replying, and then turned his head to look at Qingsheng, with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes. Qingsheng saw that both of them were looking at him, and said loudly:

"If you read the book of the sage, you will stop the chivalrous deeds of the two virtuous brothers, I am just thinking, this sword in the pool!"

The two of them were startled, turned their heads to look at the dragon-handled sword in the blood pool, and Qingsheng's next words came from behind them:

"Sheng once saw this kind of sword in a certain ancient book The blood refining method is to collect the virgin blood of a boy and a girl, soak it for three years, and inject fresh human blood every day without interruption, when the sword is completed, I am afraid that it has taken the vitality of more than a thousand young children, and it is called the Blood Demon Sword!"

"This kind of blood demon sword is extremely powerful, it is not for mortals to use it, only some sword immortals of the evil path will use this method of harming heaven and reason to sacrifice their own saber. As far as I know, in Qiu Chi City, I'm afraid there is only one person who can have this kind of ability! ”

Kyungsheng said...... He? Hearing Qingsheng's words, the cold light in Gao Yan's eyes skyrocketed.

The cold light in Xu Mo's eyes also flashed, and Qingsheng's words made him understand a lot of things, not only about the owner of the Blood Demon Sword, but also ......
