After dinner, he was ordered to go back to King Jin's mansion to bring Xueqiu'er and the spiritual guard brought by Yaoqin.

Lin Wanyan couldn't help but be a little worried, according to the time, they should arrive earlier than the additional spirit guards.

"It can't be that something happened, right?" asked Lin Wanyan worriedly.

Xiao Yuwen was also very uneasy, but he still smiled and comforted: "Maybe something is delayed on the road." ”​

Lin Wanyan thought that he couldn't sleep anyway, so he pulled Xiao Yuwen to walk outside the marching tent, and when he met Yang Chengyue, who was on patrol, the two followed him into his tent and sat down to chat and kill time.

"Third Master, I've been thinking about it today, I'm afraid that Mu Sino is not practicing some kind of magic skill, I heard that when the magic skill is activated, it will make people's bodies change, especially the eyes, and some people will expand several times in an instant. ”

Yang Chengyue said with a frown. Now when they talk about things, they don't shy away from Lin Wanyan.

Xiao Yuwen nodded, "Well, I'm very impressed, his body hasn't changed in any way. I have another guess, maybe it's witchcraft. That's why he ran away in a hurry, and I should have caught up with him and finished him off. ”​

"Witchcraft..." Yang Chengyue pondered for a moment and continued: "If it is witchcraft, I am afraid that it is more powerful than magic skills, and it is correct that the third master did not chase it." ”

"How do you say this?" Xiao Yuwen was a little puzzled. If you want to break the witchcraft, you must destroy its body, otherwise you will not be able to kill it.

"I've heard of the witchcraft of the Hundred Flowers Palace, it's not ordinary witchcraft, ordinary witchcraft can't bring the dead back to life instantly, you have to summon the soul.

The witchcraft of the Hundred Flowers Palace is more powerful and more evil, can the third master still remember that five years ago, in many remote villages of the Great God Yue, as long as a newborn was born, it would disappear before the full moon?

It is said that the same was true of the Tanglin Kingdom that year. And these babies were all sent to a place called Black Eagle Mountain in Xuanmu Country.

Black Eagle Mountain, in the easternmost part of the Xuanmu Kingdom, is a backward city, where the ground is hard, plants are scarce, and it is not suitable for farming, and the people live extremely hard.

The people there followed a peculiar funeral method called sky burial. There is a heavenly burial platform on the Black Eagle Mountain, the body is wrapped in a white cloth after death, the mortuary is suspended for one day to several days, the lama is asked to recite the sutra and cross over, and the date is selected for the funeral.

During this period, a red clay pot was hung in front of the deceased's house, and food was placed in the jar for the soul of the deceased.

On the day of the funeral, the family will send the body to the celestial burial platform, and the bearer and the mourner are not allowed to look back, and the red clay pot is broken on the road, and then handed over to the celestial burial master for processing, and the family is not allowed to follow to the celestial burial platform.

The celestial burial master places the corpse on the celestial burial platform, and the undertaker burns a fire and ignites the "mulberry" smoke, and the vultures in the distance will fly over voluntarily when they see the thick smoke, gathering in the nearby mountains, waiting to peck at them.

The celestial burial master peels off the flesh and bones of the body, smashes the bones with stones, and decomposes the body for vultures to peck at, and the bones are eaten as auspicious, and if there is any remnant, it is incinerated to eat.

It is rumored that those celestial burial masters have psychic skills and can refine souls for their own use. But those souls who die of old age and sickness have their own thoughts and ideas, and they are not easy to tame, so they are not of much value.

Newborns, on the other hand, are much easier to control, and those who are sent to Black Eagle Mountain have been being tested. Some died tragically, and some were kept in captivity like livestock.

If Musno used witchcraft, it probably had something to do with Black Eagle Mountain. The witchcraft that they had spent so much time and mutilated so many babies must have been terrible.

That's why I said that it was correct that the third master didn't chase after him, because we didn't know what other means Mu Snow had. ”​

After Yang Cheng finished reading it, he felt creepy.

Xiao Yuwen's face was not good-looking, but Lin Wanyan was very calm.

Lin Wanyan's calmness is because she has long known about the heavenly burial, and what Yang Chengyue described is not much different from what she remembers.

It's just that the celestial burial master is psychic, and he can refine the soul for his own use, which she has never heard of in modern times.

As for using newborns for such inhumane experiments, she felt that these people would not be too much to die hundreds of times.

Lin Wanyan, who is already a mother, not only spurns this kind of behavior in her heart, but wants to get justice for those innocent babies in person.

"This matter will be investigated immediately, if it is true, it is not only Mu Si and Baihua Palace that should be damned, but there is no need for Xuan Mu Kingdom to exist.

My father is just too merciful, so that if there is no humane evil, how can the people in the world live in peace?"

Xiao Yuwen's words trembled a little, it was anger, extreme anger.

Before Ze Ge'er and Hao Ge'er were born, he didn't have much feeling for the child. can witness the suffering of Lin Wanyan when she was pregnant in October, and seeing the cute and innocent appearance of Brother Ze and Brother Hao, he can't imagine how sad those parents who lost their children will be.

How innocent are those children who have not experienced the beauty of the world and seen the beauty of the world?

What the Hundred Flowers Palace does is not what people can do, the tiger poison does not eat children, those people are not even as good as animals.

Yang Chengyue nodded silently, greater responsibility means more danger, and the path Xiao Yuwen chose was not easy to follow.

But not only Xiao Yuwen, not only Lingye Palace, this is the whole world, but everyone who has morality and righteousness will make the same choice.

Lin Wanyan agrees with Xiao Yuwen's idea very much, and blindly compromising and retreating will only make unhealthy trends more and more popular.

Or maybe you're glad you escaped a catastrophe, but you don't know when someone else's grief will creep in and repeat itself in you.

Xiao Yuwen and Yang Chengyue chatted about some other things, and didn't walk to their tent with Lin Wanyan until late at night.

They saw two supernatural guards waiting at the door from a distance, Lin Wanyan became excited for a while, these two must have come back from King Jin's Mansion and were waiting for their lives.

"Master!, ma'am!" the two psychic guards called in a low voice.

"What happened on the road?" Xiao Yuwen looked the two of them up and down, and saw that their clothes were not very neat, and their shoes were also stained with some mud.

"When we returned to our master, we passed through a forest, and the snowballs flew away like a demon, and we chased them all the way, detouring many ways, and delaying some time. ”​

One of the psychic guards explained.

Hearing this, Xiao Yuwen and Lin Wanyan were taken aback.

"Is Snowball hurt, where is that wood?" Lin Wanyan felt that there must be something wrong with it, and Snowball wouldn't be like this for no reason.

"Please rest assured, Madame, Snowball is fine. The woods are not far from here. The paranormal guard replied.

"Third Master, I think it's necessary to take Snowball to take a look, maybe you can find something. Lin Wanyan said to Xiao Yuwen seriously.

Xiao Yuwen was silent for a moment and nodded, "You two go and prepare the horses, and call the twenty-four spirits and the twelve divisions." ”​

"Yes!" the two psychic guards hurried away.

Xiao Yuwen was still standing outside the tent, and Lin Wanyan walked in and hugged Xueqiu'er out.

"Xueqiu'er, did you find anything? Don't be afraid, will you take us there?" Lin Wanyan said to Xueqiu'er in a soft voice.

Xueqiu'er seemed to understand, looked at Lin Wanyan, and winked at her.

After a group of people gathered, they got on the horse, and Lin Wanyan put the snowball on the ground and stepped on the horse.

"Snowball, let's go!"

As soon as Lin Wanyan's words fell, Snowball ran out, followed by dozens of horses.

In order to ensure Lin Wanyan's safety, the one who ran at the front was still the twenty-four spirits, and the twelve divisions were behind the palace, protecting Xiao Yuwen and Lin Wanyan in the middle.

The snowball is very fast, and it is not an ordinary forest path, and it is a bit difficult to keep up.

Fortunately, Snowball would stop and wait for a moment from time to time, and everyone was amazed. Anyone who knows Snowball is sighing, but how can a wild cat that has been picked up seem to be psychic?

After touching half a pillar of incense, Snowball stopped in front of a very hidden cave.

Ling Mu and Ling Yue took the lead in dismounting, holding torches and swords to split the weeds in front of the cave, and walked a few steps inside, and soon retreated, with a frightened face.

"Master, there's a pile of animal and human corpses in it!"

Ling Mu walked up to Xiao Yuwen and whispered.

Xiao Yuwen frowned, turned his head and said to the twelve divisions behind him: "You guys protect Princess Jin!"

"Yes!" the twelve divisions responded in unison, and when Xiao Yuwen got off the horse, he surrounded Lin Wanyan in the middle, holding a torch in one hand and a sword in the other, each staring at the direction they wanted to defend vigilantly.

Xiao Yuwen went to the cave with the twenty-four spirits, and to their surprise, Xueqiuer was the first to rush in, and after entering, he jumped on a "corpse" that fell to the ground, and kept licking his face.

The twenty-four spirits quickly divided their minds to inspect the cave, some were examining the corpses, and some were crouching down to study the structure and soil of the cave.

"Master, except for the unidentified man under Snowball, who still has a breath, everyone else is dead.

The dead were all from the Hundred Flowers Palace, but they were all dressed strangely, and they were all between thirty and forty years old.

As for the animals, one of the fox-like ones was seriously injured, and the others died. The deceased animal was preliminarily judged to be a vulture, but as far as the subordinates knew, it should not have been present here.

It is very likely that this group of people brought it, and the number of vultures matches the number of people in the Hundred Flower Palace.

In addition, these dead people and animals did not have any external injuries, as if they were shattered by internal forces and died. And just a few hours old. ”

Lingmu reported clearly.

"Leave it as it is, bring this man and that kind of fox back for treatment. ”

When Xiao Yuwen heard the word "vulture", his heart tightened, it seemed that what Yang Chengyue said was true.

"Yes!"

Soon, Ling Mu and Ling Yue carried the injured man out, and Ling Yin also picked up the snow-white fox and walked out.

Xiao Yuwen picked up the snowball and exited the cave with the others.

Lin Wanyan, who had been waiting anxiously outside, didn't react much when she looked at the man who was carried out, and she couldn't see the person's appearance clearly.

But looking at the kind of white fox that Ling Yin was holding, she instantly understood something...
