The stars and moon are dim, the wild wilderness ridge, and the Futu Ridge are in danger, and the scene is chaotic.

Some of the villagers in each village not only rushed out from the winding mountain road, but also fled from other directions outside the mountain.

Except for the forbidden land in the north of Futu Ridge, the other three directions have been surrounded, and after several villagers were killed, everyone no longer dared to rush out, and all of them retreated to Mingyue Village.

From the beginning to the end, no one in the army surrounding Futuling came forward to say a word, and everyone who tried to escape was killed.

The panicked village chiefs of the villages in Futuling shouted with loudspeakers, and good words were to no avail.

"Why slaughter us, what are we doing wrong?" Someone shouted.

"Slaughter the villagers, you will be punished, and the snake lady will not let you go!"

"Please, don't kill us!"

A shout of shouts came from outside the window lattice of the Floating Tower, and I could hear it faintly in the forbidden place.

The snake lady sent a message to ask Guo Blind to take me to the dragon vein burial ground, and the hole in the Futu Pagoda was the entrance where Mr. Chang and I entered the dragon vein burial ground.

At this time, the underground world was brightly lit, and in the brilliant shadow, I saw a scene that was even more eerie and brilliant than the last time I saw the underground world.

Huge moats split to the sides, and the walls of the mountains were full of huge caves close together, probably connected to each other, and some of the protruding mountains were carved with strange statues, like the totems of some kind of god of Buddhism and Taoism.

And from these dark caves, I could faintly smell a fishy smell emanating from them.

In the middle of this underground world, in the middle of the trench are pillars of molten melt that rise from the ground, like thousands of layers of stone piled together and then poured with magma from top to bottom.

The iron chains between the mountain walls are the chains that suppress the dragon veins, and the chains fix the molten pillars between the trenches, so that the scene stretches for thousands of feet, and I don't know where it leads.

The stone staircase we were on was a spiral staircase built around one of the giant molten pillars leading to the lowest floor, the light below was blurred, and the blue jade light on both sides illuminated the entire underground, and there was no lava or disgusting corpses below, but rows of white vegetation like trees emerging from the bottom.

There was a hissing sound from time to time in the cave, and I followed Guo Blind to the huge altar dragged above these molten pillars, and Guo Huaiyi and the crystal coffin were already missing.

Guo Blind pointed to the altar where we were and said: "What we see now is the altar built by the army of the Ming Dynasty back then, such a building, even if it is built by people now, it will take several years, but it only took a few months at that time. The price you should know. ”

In ancient countries, whether it was the construction of the Langhuan Palace, or the construction of the Great Wall of the Underground Palace, or even the pyramids and the Tongtian Futu, it often took tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people to complete. Ancient building tools were simple and rudimentary, mostly driven by manpower, and monarchs often could not wait for ten years to complete, and the deadline was to complete in a few months. Then the workers can only build day and night, and it is common for the project to be completed and there are more than 10,000 casualties.

Guo Blind continued: "Since ancient times, the people were as cheap as dogs, and before the blood sacrifice of three thousand boys and girls, many people had died here, and then three thousand boys and girls died in this place, and their blood gathered together and flowed to the dragon vein, in order to achieve the hegemony of the Ming Dynasty. You have a little Zhou Tian compass, and I can let you see what happened back then. ”

I took out the Xiao Zhou Tian compass, Guo Blind held my hand, and dialed on the pointer of the Xiao Zhou Tian compass, the sound of the compass came out, and a circle of light and shadow flew around, and the entire underground world changed in an instant.

The altar in front of me and Guo Blind stood full of people, soldiers with serious faces and long hands standing on both sides of the altar, and in the middle were bound boys and girls, most of them were about sixteen or seventeen years old, and the younger ones were seven or eight years old.

"Let me go, I don't want to be a sacrifice, I want to go home!" A good-looking girl began to cry.

The soldiers on either side retreated, and the armor-clad general Chang Yuchun walked to the middle of the altar with his head held high, his armor making a slight metal crashing sound, and one hand resting on the saber at his waist.

The two teenagers grabbed the crying girl next to them and told her to stop shouting, but the girl still cried. Chang Yuchun walked up to the girl, pinched the girl's chin and said: "It is your great honor to be able to sacrifice for the eternal Ming Dynasty and my emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, why are you crying?" ”

The girl glared at Chang Yuchun fiercely, and spit on Chang Yuchun's face with a mouthful of saliva, and the girl said: "You burn, kill, and plunder, the common people will not let go, God will protect the Ming Dynasty when he is blind, I curse you......"

Poof, before the girl's words were finished, Chang Yuchun slapped the crescent blade in the middle of the altar, and a layer of skin was connected between the head and neck, and the girl was motionless, blood splattered.

I was standing right in the blood trough, and her blood fell through my cheek and backwards, making me take a step back.

A group of people trembled with fright and did not dare to speak, and some children began to cry.

Chang Yuchun immediately pulled out his sword and stabbed the two of them and said: "Whoever dares to cry again will destroy the nine clans!" ”

Some of the children were still crying, and the teenagers around them covered their mouths and couldn't cry.

A young man stood up and shouted: "My Nine Clans have long been wiped out, and everyone in the village has been killed by you, I am not afraid of you!" ”

"Good!" Chang Yuchun walked towards the boy with a sword.

The young man glared at Chang Yuchun and said, "I curse you to cut off your children and grandchildren, eat your wife and mother, and you will not die well!" ”

Chang Yuchun stabbed the young man in the neck with a sword, carried him to the blood trough in the middle of the altar, and put the blood into the blood trough.

"Curse you to cut off your children and grandchildren, eat your wife and mother, and you will not die well!" All the boys and girls shouted.

Chang Yuchun was furious, and he shouted: "Kill them all for me!" ”

"General Chang, the sacrifice must flow blood into the blood trough of the sacrifice, if you kill people by other means in order to vent your anger, the sacrifice will be interrupted, if my emperor is to blame, who will bear it?" Li Shanchang walked from one end of the sacrificial bridge.

Chang Yuchun snorted, and asked the soldiers to escort the boys and girls on the altar around the sacrificial blood trough, and pressed their necks on the surface of the crescent moon, like killing chickens, and one by one the fresh lives disappeared in humiliation and unwillingness.

I turned the needle of the compass back to square one, and everything in front of me vanished.

Guo Blind smiled and said, "Can't stand it? ”

I rubbed my eyes and asked, "What's the use of you showing me this?" ”

Guo Blind said: "It's just to let you see how cheap human life is in the eyes of some people, this has nothing to do with the relationship between ruling and being ruled, as long as the class is different, human life is not much different from the life of ants, including in the eyes of people in Taoism, mortals are like ants, and they can be killed at will." ”

"According to this, the snake lady also has the strength to despise all beings, if she is released, wouldn't it be the same, even more difficult to restrain her?" I said.

Guo Blind said: "The snake lady is different, as early as seven hundred years ago, she was already three hundred years old, and the life span of the white snake even if it became a sperm was only like this, but Chang Yuchun and Li Shanchang led the troops to injure her and threw her into the dragon vein blessed land. The snake lady's body can fix the dragon vein, and at the same time, the dragon vein can also nourish her, but the price is that she will never be able to get out. Thousands of years, the snake Niangniang has cultivated a humanoid soul, which is unheard of in the history of Daomen, she has seen the vicissitudes of the world and the warmth and coldness of human nature, many years older than the old Xiucai, do you know what is the most terrible for human beings? ”

I frowned and looked at Guo Blind, who said, "It's loneliness, the loneliness of being locked up in eternal darkness and immortal, dark and dark. All the snake lady wants is freedom, and besides, she has lived for a thousand years, and the time limit has come, and if she doesn't go out, she won't be able to live. ”

I looked at the ancient oil lamps on both sides of the mountain and the shining jade stones below and asked, "What happened to the three thousand boys and girls?" ”

"All dead, including all the soldiers." An indifferent voice suddenly came from underground.

Then, a huge white snake swam up from under the altar and circled the bridge, its body as thick as a water tank and covered with a layer of white hair.

When Mr. Chang was swallowed by the big snake before, I didn't pay attention to the appearance of the big snake at all, but when I saw it at this time, I couldn't help but be terrified, and the hairs on my body stood on end.

The snake's eyes were completely orange-yellow, its pupils were like a sharp black thorn sticking in the middle, the fangs on its upper jaw protruded from its mouth, and it even had two horns on its head, but these two horns looked a little deformed.

The serpent's head was headed down with long hairs, and it seemed to see that I was afraid, so it stopped in place, and the dense hairs on its neck were like fleshy wings, one by one, with its breathing.

I've never seen a snake so close, and it's such a big weird snake.

"You're a snake girl?" I asked.
