Chapter 167: Altar Sacrifice
In the huge open-air cave, there is a strange stone platform in the center of the crowd, which happens to be in a pentagonal shape, and above it is facing the cave above the big hole that leads to the outside, five water tanks of different shapes are placed in the five corners of this high platform, a deep hole is opened in the center of the high platform, and I don't know what is underneath, Zhang Renshan has been supporting San'er below so that he can stand firmer, and he naturally can't see anything, thinking about asking San'er about the specific situation, But San'er handed over the words before, and when he arrived at the place, he tried to say as little as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble, so Zhang Renshan endured it and didn't ask anything.

San'er tiptoed and looked at the high platform in the center of the crowd, the height had to rely on the joint efforts of the two of them to climb up, and then looked at the five water tanks of different shapes placed on it, San'er nodded, and then gently retracted his body and looked at Zhang Renshan and said in a low voice: "Xian'er, I think we can be regarded as a place, this should be the blood altar in Li Ping's mouth, but there still doesn't seem to be a shadow of Xiao Lingling!" ”
Zhang Renshan tilted his head, and also looked at the five-sided high platform in the distance, nodded and said in a low voice: "I guess those people still haven't brought Xiao Lingling over!" We also all know that this place relies on living people to sacrifice, I guess it will definitely not be able to bring people before the time comes, and now Xiao Lingling should be hidden somewhere! ”
San'er also nodded in agreement with Zhang Renshan's statement, looking at the surrounding crowd, the two of them were together, squeezing forward as much as possible, and they were a little closer to the five-sided platform.
The bright moon outside the cave hung high and the white moonlight shone from the big hole at the height of the cave to the high platform, only at the moment when the moonlight touched the high platform, the crowd that was still bustling in the cave before suddenly all quieted down, Zhang Renshan and San'er hurriedly looked around and turned their heads, the two of them came to the tunnel entrance before, the crowd was naturally separated, five people with unicorn masks walked out of the tunnel, San'er and Zhang Renshan because they wanted to save Xiao Lingling, so they were closer to the high platform, and naturally they stayed away from the tunnel entrance, As soon as these five people came out, although San'er wanted to take a closer look, he was indeed a little far away now, so he had to take a look first, Zhang Renshan didn't care about these, and he still stared at the top of the high platform, thinking about how to save Xiao Lingling at that time.
The five people who came out of the tunnel mouth also didn't have much politeness to walk in the middle of the scattered crowd, moving towards the high platform little by little, every time they walked a section of the crowd was automatically making way for these five people, almost no one dared to stand in front of a few people, San'er turned around and looked at the five people who came over, as they got closer and closer, San'er saw more and more clearly, although these five people are also black robes in the body mask to cover their faces, but they give people a feeling that is absolutely different, just to that station can naturally give people a sense of oppression, When the light flickered, San'er looked up at the unicorn masks on the faces of the five people, and saw that the unicorn masks worn by these five people were all intact, and there were no broken horns, and these intact unicorn masks were all engraved with the words of the five elements on their foreheads, San'er nodded and said secretly: "This should be the five elders in Li Ping's mouth, each of them is in charge of the entrance of a unicorn club!" ”
The crowd was divided into left and right, and the five people walked to the high platform without stopping, but they saw that they were about to get to the place, but they had to pass by Zhang Renshan's position, and the people around him had already dispersed, but Zhang Renshan himself was still stunned and looked at the high platform and didn't know what to think, San'er saw this and hurriedly went to pull him, Zhang Renshan came back to his senses and just wanted to ask San'er what he was doing, but there was someone behind him: "Why don't you give way to this Jintang!" ”
"Who? Lao Tzu, I ......" Zhang Renshan turned around and turned behind him, and was about to scold a few dirty words, but he saw the five people coming from the side of the tunnel, and after being stunned for a while, Zhang Renshan quickly jumped to the side of the crowd and said: "Please!" ”
The five of them looked at Zhang Renshan, all of them were happy, and a black-robed man with gold characters engraved on his forehead walked to Zhang Renshan's side and said, "You kid is very interesting!" Let's not come to live in the hotel, but also 'please' you, this is the usual shop boy to do too much work! ”
Zhang Renshan smiled awkwardly, although he was angry when he heard this, but San'er grabbed the corner of his clothes behind him, Zhang Renshan naturally held back his ridiculous words, lowered his head and said, "Yes...... Oh, yes! ”
The black-robed man with golden characters smiled when he heard it, turned around and walked to the side of the other people, and the five people continued to walk towards the high platform, and the crowd saw that the five people passed and slowly merged together, Zhang Renshan stood in place, and from time to time he exhaled out, his heart was angry, San'er kept pulling the corner of his clothes on the side, signaling him to bear with it again, so as not to expose the two of them now, Zhang Renshan naturally knew the priority, although he felt uncomfortable, but for the sake of Xiao Lingling and at the same time for the safety of San'er, he still chose to be patient.
After calming down a little, Zhang Renshan followed San'er and squeezed to the front of the crowd again, looking at what the five people around the high platform were going to do.
The five elders of the Qilin Society on the side of the high platform walked to the five corners of the high platform, looked up at the high water tank, and then one of them directly turned over and jumped up, the crowd saw this is a burst of cheers, Zhang Renshan looked at it and was a little dumbfounded, the height of this high platform may not be able to be obtained even if he and San'er Lei are together, but the person directly turned over and jumped up is incredible, San'er also saw it, and looked at the mask on the person's face by the moonlight shining from above the high platform, and it was the elder of the Golden Qilin Hall who had just spoken to Zhang Renshan.
"I didn't think that this person really has some skills, how do you compare with him, Xian'er?" San'er looked up at the Golden Qilin Elder on the high platform, and then whispered to Zhang Renshan.
Zhang Renshan shook his head when he heard San'er's question, and whispered: "One in the sky and one in the ground!" ”
"Oh...... Who's in the sky and who's on the earth? San'er glanced at Zhang Renshan curiously and asked.
"See for yourself!" Zhang Renshan looked up at the Golden Qilin Elder on the high platform and said.
San'er looked at Zhang Renshan, then looked at the top of the platform, nodded and already understood what Zhang Renshan meant.
The two of them were still discussing the matter of the Golden Qilin Elder, and the remaining four people on the ground over there all walked to the high platform in their own ways, some with ladders, some with ropes, and some by people to lift up, in short, none of them were as powerful as this Golden Qilin Elder's tricks.
On the high platform, when all five people stood firmly next to the water tank, the crowd returned to a calm state, and the surroundings were so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be understood in their ears, Zhang Renshan and San'er did not dare to say a word at this time, but they just cooperated with the surrounding crowd to quietly look at the top of the high platform, time seemed to freeze, no one dared to move and no one made a sound, until a golden light suddenly flashed in mid-air, and a person flew down from the big hole that was high and penetrated, Zhang Renshan and San'er were staring at the high platform, but they didn't expect that people were coming from a high place, and when the two hurriedly looked up, the surrounding crowd and the five elders on the high platform all suddenly knelt down and said in unison: "Welcome to the sect master!" ”
Zhang Renshan and San'er didn't know that there were such rules, and they didn't react for a while, but fortunately, the two of them heard the sounds around them, and quickly followed the appearance of the people around them, and also half-knelt on the ground, although they didn't speak, but they were basically the same, the person who floated down from the height staggered and slowly landed next to the unfathomable hole in the center of the high platform, and then stood with his head back, his hands naturally hanging on his sides, and he looked around, and a loud voice echoed in the hole: "Get up!" ”
After everyone heard this, they all quickly stood up from the ground, but except for the five elders, everyone else lowered their heads and did not dare to look at the top of the high platform easily, although Zhang Renshan and San'er said that they didn't want to expose themselves, but if they didn't go to see what the meaning of the two people coming here was gone, San'er stood behind Zhang Renshan and clicked on his clothes, Zhang Renshan naturally understood that he leaned next to San'er to block his body for him, and then San'er gently raised his head and looked at the high platform.
The five elders are still standing by the water tank in the corner of the high platform, and there is a person standing next to the hole in the center of the ground who is the leader of the Qilin Society, and the moonlight is shining on his body from top to bottom, only to see that the leader is wearing a golden dragon head mask on his face, a pure white robe on his body, the figure is not burly but it is also a little tall, standing next to the hole in the ground with his hands raised as if to call everyone quiet, San'er looked at the pair of eyes behind the mask just by looking at it to know that this person is not trivial, Those eyes were blazing, as if there was an indescribable power in that person's body, as long as he looked at it lightly, it could make people uncomfortable.
Zhang Renshan blocked his body for San'er, although he wanted to look up, but the place where he was standing now was too far forward, as long as he looked up, it would definitely be discovered by the people on the high platform, and in desperation, Zhang Renshan had no choice but to continue to look down at his feet and wait for the news from San'er's side.
On the high platform, the leader of the Qilin Society first talked to the five elders about something, and then his body straightened up a little and walked to the side of the cave, and a loud voice came out: "When the night is gone, chaos opens, all things rest in peace, and the earth gate is sacrificed!" ”
After the voice, the five elders began to get busy, and an elder wearing a wooden character standing in a corner hurriedly nodded to the bottom, and then some people walked out carrying something from the pile, San'er and Zhang Renshan said that they didn't dare to move too much, but their eyes still glanced over there, and they saw that everyone was carrying an incense case made of jade, and there were people holding a copper tripod on the side.
Zhang Renshan almost didn't control his mouth when he saw this, and San'er also saw the abnormality over there and said in his heart: "I didn't expect this copper tripod to be really here!" ”
But the two of them didn't dare to move now, so they could only watch the incense case of the copper tripod and jade being lifted to the high platform little by little, and placed next to the entrance of the cave, and then the leader of the Qilin Society moved his body and walked to the back of the incense case, and he didn't know where to take out the three pillars of high incense, and with a flick of his hand, the three pillars of high incense were all burning, and he stood in the copper tripod with a gentle insertion.
The leader of the Qilin Society here has just inserted high incense, and the elder of the Golden Qilin over there hurriedly said to the bottom: "Sacrifice!" ”
After speaking, a few people came out of the tunnel with a wooden stretcher on their shoulders, and on the stretcher was Xiao Lingling, who Zhang Renshan and San'er were looking for.
On the stretcher, Xiao Lingling closed his eyes tightly and looked as if he was asleep, and he didn't know what kind of drug he was given, Zhang Renshan saw this and wanted to rush over to save people, but he was pulled by San'er behind him and said in a low voice: "Xian'er, now is not the time, we have to wait!" There are too many people around, and if we act rashly, we will inevitably fail! ”
Zhang Renshan listened to San'er's words, although he was already anxious in his heart, but he could only endure it for the time being, secretly let go of the hand in his robe that had already held the handle of the broadsword, and looked at Xiao Lingling's direction and stared deadly.
The elders of the golden unicorn on the high platform saw that Xiao Lingling was carried over, and then jumped down with one hand, and then grabbed Xiao Lingling's waist with one hand, and then jumped back to the high platform, and the remaining four elders saw that people came up and hurriedly walked to his side, and then tied Xiao Lingling's hands and hung them high on the top of the hole, as if they were preparing bait for fishing. Zhang Renshan and San'er were shocked when they saw it, but they really didn't dare to act rashly at the moment, they just secretly prayed in their hearts that Xiao Lingling would not fall suddenly.
On the high platform, the sect leader of the Qilin Society saw that the preparations had been properly stood behind the incense case and nodded at the five elders, these five elders also understood that they hurriedly walked back to the water tank in the corner, and then each of them took out a delicate dagger from their sleeves, and gently slashed on their hands, and the blood overflowed and the five people raised their hands to drip blood into the water tank beside them, and as the blood fell bit by bit, the leader of the Qilin Society also kept reading something in his mouth, Zhang Renshan and San'er were really some distance away and couldn't hear what the sect leader was saying, but Xiao Yue, who was in San'er's arms, heard it clearly, and said to San'er through the robe: "Little cub, this person seems to be gathering demonic power, you have to be careful!" ”
San'er didn't understand what Xiaoyue meant, but when she heard what she said, she didn't dare to slack off, so she quickly raised her hand and gently patted Zhang Renshan's back and whispered: "Xian'er is afraid of danger, be vigilant!" ”
Zhang Renshan nodded in understanding, secretly stretched out his hand hidden under the black robe and held it on the handle of the broadsword, and the two stood a little closer, cautiously watching every move around them.
The leader of the Qilin Society on the high platform was still gushing endlessly, and after a while, the copper tripod on the incense table in front of him suddenly moved, and the high incense inserted on it just burned to the head at the fastest speed in the blink of an eye, and it was extinguished in an instant, although San'er said that he was standing far away, but he also saw the strange appearance of the copper tripod, and hurriedly whispered to Xiaoyue: "Fairy Gu, what's going on?" ”
Xiao Yue exhaled a ball of hot air through the black robe on San'er's body and said, "Bad! I said why these people went to catch the little demon in the mountain, it turned out to be for this matter! Little cub, if you want to survive now, there is only one way to smash the copper tripod, otherwise there will be a catastrophe between heaven and earth! ”
"Fairy Gu, this ......" San'er listened to Xiaoyue's words, and looked at the copper tripod, which was unknown.
Although Zhang Renshan didn't hear the conversation between the two, looking at the things on the high platform, he also faintly felt bad in his heart, and the broadsword in his hand trembled slightly.
Seeing that San'er still didn't understand, Xiao Yue quickly poked his head out from behind his black robe, spit out a cloud of white smoke on his face, and then said, "You can see for yourself!" ”
San'er was smoked by the white smoke and wanted to dodge it, but there was no trace of burning in front of his nose, and he felt a little more cool in his brain, staring at the top of the high platform again, only to see that this high platform, which was originally ordinary, was now shrouded in a cloud of filthy black gas, and this filthy gas came out of the five water tanks, as the five elders dripped more and more blood into the water tank, the filthy gas became more and more intense, but this black gas had no intention of spreading, and they all circled around the high platform. It wasn't until the last San'er found through the gaps that appeared when some black gas flew that all these black gases were sucked into the copper tripod, and when he saw this, San'er understood and said secretly: "No wonder the three pillars of high incense burned so fast, it turned out that these black gas were all ghosts!" ”
Zhang Renshan naturally didn't see anything and listened to San'er muttering to himself behind him, so he wanted to ask him, but before Zhang Renshan could speak, there was a loud noise on the high platform, and the two of them quickly looked up, only to see the leader of the Qilin Society raise his hands high and slam on the incense case made of jade, and the entire copper tripod was also slightly deviated by him, Xiaoyue also saw the things on the high platform through the black robe on San'er's body, and quickly poked his head out and said to the two:" Watch out for this underground stuff coming out! ”
Zhang Renshan and San'er instinctively retreated as soon as they heard this, but there were still others behind them who happened to block the two of them, Zhang Renshan and San'er had no choice but to continue to stand in place and watch in a daze, after the sound, the incense case made of jade had been slapped into countless pieces by the leader of the Qilin Society, as for the copper tripod on it, it was held in his hand and swayed left and right, and there was a slight sound in the cave.
Zhang Renshan glanced at Xiao Lingling, who was hanging on the top of the cave, turned his head to look at San'er and said, "San'er, don't we do it yet?" ”
San'er looked around and saw that almost everyone was standing in place, nodded in a daze, and said, "It's time!" ”
Here, Zhang Renshan was still waiting for San'er's reply, but there was a roar in the cave on the high platform......
