Chapter 31: The Offering Hall

Giggle –

The sound came from far and near, like a ghost, wandering outside.

Lao Luo looked nervous, he put his hand to his mouth and made a silent gesture to Tang Yun. The two remained motionless, keeping their stiffness.

The red light in Tang Yun's hand became more and more obvious, and there was a low buzzing sound. Tang Yun hurriedly covered his fingers with his other hand, and Lao Luo cast a surprised look.

Then, both of them held their breath.

The voice came to a stop in front of the stone gate.

Whoa, whoa, whoa—

It was as if there was a claw, scratching the stone door. The claws scratched the stone wall, which was very harsh.

After a while, nothing unusual seemed to be noticed from the things outside. He quietly left in front of the stone gate, his steps gentle, and gradually moving away.

"Whew."

Lao Luo breathed a sigh of relief, he put his hand on Tang Yun's knife, and forced out a smile: "You are fortunate to have met me, otherwise you may end up like those people outside." ”

When Lao Luo spoke, his voice was very low, and he seemed to be very afraid of the existence outside the stone gate.

Tang Yun was about to push the stone door open, but was stopped by Lao Luo: "Don't open it yet!" That thing usually comes out at night, so let's wait until dawn before we go out. ”

Tang Yun looked at this former robe, his long hair was scattered, his face seemed to have not been cleaned for a long time, and his mouth was buried in a long beard.

"What the hell is that?" Tang Yun asked.

Lao Luo sighed, he seemed to be very weak, sat down against the stone door, and said slowly.

He received an order from the general to lurk among the Qing thieves and get a suitable opportunity, but he approached the leader of the Qing thieves. The general is very concerned about this group of relics of the former dynasty who have been lurking in the Central Plains, and he wants to control this force.

Lao Luo was very experienced in this kind of thing, and he quickly gained the trust of everyone in Qingjun. The general gave him the identity of a descendant of the first assistant of the Qing Dynasty's cabinet, and Lao Luo was originally extraordinary, so he made a name for himself in the Qing army.

He was appointed as the commander of the Qilin Guard, and secretly ambushed the troops here.

According to Lao Luo's words, this is a hidden armory of the Qing army. These things can't be put on the surface, so they can only hide in such barren mountains and mountains.

Tang Yun remembered that the 100 households of the Qingjun captured in Huishan Village were also in the Qilin Guard.

"The tax silver lost in the capital is all made by your Qilin Guard." Tang Yun asked,

Lao Luo's face changed suddenly, he seemed to think of something terrifying, and said in a trembling voice: "Then you can get to the point, this matter, they really did it." ”

Qilin Wei is taken from the meaning of the Qilin Protector.

The entire Qilin Guard, similar to the current Baiqi, their mission is to protect the emperors of the Qing Dynasty in the past dynasties. Even though the Qing Dynasty has been dead for a long time, they still do not forget their mission.

In fact, there are still many remnants of the former dynasty in the rivers and lakes. They lurk in the shadows, and this Kirin Guard is one of the backbones.

The Qilin Guard has placed more than 1,000 people in this cave to guard this batch of ordnance.

Although Lao Luo said that he had the trust of Qingjun and others, he did not join it at the beginning after all, and it was inevitable that some people would be suspicious of him. This is the top priority of the Qing army, so just letting Lao Luo be an adjutant actually has no real power in his hands.

"Their commander is a drunkard, and a few good bottles of wine will make him shake off all the plans."

Lao Luo's face suddenly became much more solemn, and he quietly said to Tang Yun, "Those Qilin Guards, they are worshiping an evil god!" ”

It's not a secret, since Tang Yun came here, many clues he has seen can find traces of those evil gods.

This cruel method of pouring a living person into a clay sculpture, he didn't know why anyone still believed in such a god.

"In fact, the current high-level of the Qing army is no longer the group of people left behind by the Qing Dynasty."

Although the Qing Dynasty was destroyed, after all, it was a dynasty that once unified the Central Plains, and there were countless capable people. Some of the generals and ministers of the Qing Dynasty went into exile among the people, secretly manipulating the remnants of the Qing Dynasty in an attempt to make a comeback.

It's a pity that the former Qin is very strong, and with the passage of time, many former ministers are also old.

After several generations, those who now control the Qing army are no longer the descendants of the elders of the original Qing Dynasty, but the worship hall in the royal family of the original Qing Dynasty.

These worship halls are all masters found from the rivers and lakes, and were originally established to protect the imperial palace. But since the fall of the Qing Dynasty, they have begun to reach the upper echelons.

The relics of the Qing Dynasty are under the banner of recovering the Qing Dynasty, and the leader on the surface is a prince left behind by the Qing Dynasty royal family. However, it is the worship hall that really controls these people.

"That is, the group of crazy people in the worship hall like to do these strange things."

"Do you know the most cruel thing I've ever seen, there was a peasant woman in a village who gave birth, and the whole village went to see it, and the people in the worship hall also heard the news. Everyone offered their blessings, but the child who was standing there and still wailing by his mother's side said that this man was a sin and should be killed! ”

"I don't know where he came to know that this boy is going to be a scourge. He just blindly instructed people to go over, snatched the child, and then ...... Then let me go and kill him. ”

"The newborn hairy child, before his eyes opened, he asked me to kill him, so that I could show my loyalty. I really didn't think that a child could have anything to do with sin. ”

Tang Yun asked him, "You didn't kill him, did you?" ”

"Of course not, I'm not going to go under the knife on a hairy child who hasn't been born for a long time." In the darkness of Lao Luo, a silhouette appeared on his face, "But I couldn't stop it, just like now, squatting on the ground, watching those people kill the child." ”

Lao Luo seemed to be talking about something very common.

But his expression was very lonely.

"I said to those worshippers that Lao Tzu is a man who stands up to the sky, and it is made by a beast to do something to a newborn baby. Unexpectedly, these offerings were not stunned, they said, if I really killed, it would really be ulterior motives, and they would be extra vigilant. ”

Lao Luo's voice trembled a little: "Just to test their loyalty, they killed a living life." ”

"The bastards killed her child in front of the mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law went crazy on the spot. The mother-in-law and her husband wanted to come and fight hard, but their limbs were broken by the people of the worship hall, and mercury was poured into their mouths and sealed in clay sculptures. ”

"Those people put the mother-in-law in front of the clay sculpture, made her kneel on the ground, and watched her husband being made into a clay sculpture alive."

"Later, I killed my mother-in-law, and she only knew that she would giggle in the village every day, and it would be a torment to keep her alive."

Tang Yun took a deep breath, and a cold light swept through the tiger head knife.

"Those people are dead, I know your character, you won't let this group of people go."

A smile appeared on Lao Luo's face.

"Of course, I won't let them go."

"I found an opportunity, two people who killed the child at that time. I knocked off their legs and left them on their knees, bleeding to death. However, when I was about to make a move on the offering, something strange happened. ”

"Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and the retribution of these people will come after all."
