Chapter 47: The Blood Soul Banner
Tian Nongxiang was lying bored on the trunk of the tree, thinking wildly. Suddenly, a red light rose in the distance, and it disappeared in an instant. Tian Nongxiang's heart was shocked, and he sat up suddenly. He stared at it for a long time, but nothing out of the ordinary.
What was that? He wondered as he jumped off the trunk of the tree and ran in that direction. Although the shrubs are not high, they can be intertwined with each other, and it is extremely unsuitable to wander in between. Sometimes jumping, sometimes climbing, like a lonely monkey lost in a group, desperate to find a way home that has long been lost.
He ran forty or fifty miles in one go, not to mention people, not even an animal. Tian Nongxiang was greatly surprised. Since he came to this territory inexplicably, all kinds of creatures have run rampant, and it has never been so quiet and terrifying as it is today.
Suddenly, a wisp of smoke slowly rose from the depths of the mountains, which was extremely conspicuous among the endless mountains.
Tian Nongxiang's heart was shocked, and he ran with his legs raised. There must be smoke! At this moment, his Dharma foundation is stable, and the ancient Xuanjing is peculiar, and under the traction of the "sage" character text, his potential has already been developed to the extreme. Therefore, although his cultivation is quite low, his divine power is amazing, and he runs extremely fast.
The shrubs are thinning, the grass is green, and there are faint traces of people passing by. There was an inexplicable ecstasy in his heart. As he ran at great speed, the sky grew dark, and when the last rays of sunlight drowned out, the entire mountain was completely immersed in night. It's close, it's finally close, so let's meet someone.
At this time, I saw a few bonfires lit a few miles away. Tian Nongxiang did not want to delay, and accelerated his rapid travel, but fortunately, he could see at night, and it was not difficult to walk through this desperate mountain. "Haha......" A long laugh broke the silence, followed by a whip and the screams of the crowd.
Tian Nongxiang was startled, and hurriedly slowed down his pace and slowly approached there.
At this time, he noticed that the air was filled with a pungent fishy stench and a strong smell of medicinal herbs, which was disgusting. The bonfire drew closer, and several figures flickered.
When he came to him, Tian Nongxiang didn't dare to make a mistake, so he bowed his body and pinched his feet and cautiously approached there. Although it was less than 200 meters away from the campfire, it was still difficult to see the scene there because of the shade of the bushes. When you are thirty or forty meters away, you will be real.
More than a dozen men and women were bound by ropes, and they trembled together. There are seven or eight big men around, all holding leather whips, fierce and vicious. Not far away, a copper tripod was erected, and wood was burned under it, the flames were blazing, and the smoke was rising. There was a thick soup boiling in the copper tripod, and I don't know what it was. That's where the disgusting smell that permeates the air comes from.
A big man with a hooked nose on his face and a big flag in his hand slowly approached the copper tripod, pressed the flag into the tripod, and recited words in his mouth. After a while, the banner was raised, soaked in blood, and the black curtain rose. With a volley in the air, there were countless powerful ghosts roaring and remnant souls roaring on the flag.
"Add medicine!" the hooked nose drank.
A big man grinned and snorted as he walked towards the tied man. looked at these people who were trembling with disdain. "It's you!" said the big man, picking up a young man nearby, turning around and leaving.
The young man wailed in despair, "Please, let me go, let me go, my father will be grateful." ”
"What kind of bird is your father!" the big man scolded disdainfully as he walked.
"My father is, ah, you must not die well......" Before he could finish speaking, he was thrown into the big ding.
The young man struggled for a few moments, and in an instant, he turned into dry bones, and a wisp of Yuan Shen twisted and roared in pain. The hooked nose pressed the blood flag in the tripod and read the words. The banner glowed with blood, devouring the soul of the youth.
Tian Nongxiang's heart trembled, and a wisp of fear rose up after an incomparable anger. Blood Soul Banner! There are really people who sacrifice this kind of demon weapon. The patriarch had said that this kind of magic weapon had reminded him to avoid it when he encountered it. Because this magic weapon is made by steaming the true body of the monk, hunting its essence and blood soul, and refining it. The higher the cultivation level of the boiled monk, the more powerful the banner will be. However, this magic weapon is too vicious, and those who practice this weapon are regarded as common enemies by the monks, and everyone can get it and punish it. Therefore, no one dared to cross the thunder pool lightly.
However, Tian Nongxiang bumped into it, and it was right in front of him. He stared angrily at the hooked nose, a thought in his mind constantly reminding him that it would be useless to rush out like this, and that he would even have to stick himself in. He turned his head to look at the dozen or so men and women who were trembling, and his heart was unwilling. "We have to find a way to save these people." He looked around anxiously, his mind racing, but he couldn't think of a good solution for a while.
The bound monks looked at the Blood Soul Banner in horror, some scolded bitterly, others wailed. Tian Nongxiang knew that these people were either bound to cultivate or poisoned. At this time, it is completely a lamb to the slaughter, and it will not help at all. can be alone, but he can't deal with the combination of those strong men, and even the hooked nose alone may be difficult to deal with, not to mention that he also holds a demon weapon in his hand. Although that thing has not been successfully refined, it is already powerful and should not be underestimated.
He took advantage of the night to slowly move closer to the crowd, if he could relieve them from their imprisonment and resume his cultivation, he would be much more sure. He knew that it would be impossible for these people to recover their cultivation in a short period of time, but now that the matter had come to this, he could only try his luck.
He crawled to a bush less than ten meters away from the crowd, and secretly picked up a stone and held it in his hand. At this time, I heard another shout: "Add medicine!" The strong man just now turned around and walked towards the crowd.
The strong man leaned over to grab a girl in purple. The girl struggled to avoid his big hand, crying, "My father will not spare you." ”
The strong man paused for a moment and said with a cruel smile, "Another one with a father! The chick looks good, it's a pity to throw it in, it will make the old men feel refreshed later." Suddenly, he grabbed the middle-aged man who was trembling on the side, "It's better for you to come first!"
"Don't! don't ......," the middle-aged man struggled desperately.
"Ha......" The strong man laughed triumphantly, he felt extremely satisfied with the act of being able to decide the life and death of others. Suddenly, there was wind in the back of his head, and "bang", a stone fell on the back of his head. The strong man snorted and fell into the crowd. The desperate crowd suddenly saw this and immediately became agitated.
Due to the haste of the incident and the constant wailing of the kidnapped group, the sound of the farmer throwing stones was completely muffled. The strongmen around him didn't know what was going on, and they didn't know why, and some even sneered.
But no matter how the strongmen around him shouted and scolded, the strong man lay on the ground and did not move. After a long time, Zhou Fang noticed the abnormality.
The two strongmen rushed to the crowd with their whips, and their first reaction was that someone was playing tricks here. However, before the two of them could get closer, another stone broke through the air, and a strong man fell in response, half of his face was already blurred with flesh and blood. The other strongman yelled, glanced at his companion, turned and ran back. Pointing in the direction where the stone had just flew, he shouted in horror: "Someone!
At this moment, Tian Nongxiang had quietly retreated more than 20 meters under the cover of night, and then dived to the other side. Fight hard, he is unwilling. It should be said that Tian Nongxiang didn't take these strong men to heart, because the cultivation of these people is not high, and they can see things at night, and they occupy an absolute advantage in this cliff. can be jealous of the hooked nose, especially the blood soul flag in his hand, there is an inexplicable fear, afraid of getting close.
The six strongmen looked at the hooked nose pleadingly, and one of the bearded men trembled, "We are exposed!"
With a wave of his hooked nose and big arm, he gritted his teeth and said coldly: "Find him out!"
Several strongmen looked at each other a few times, scattered in all directions, and cautiously moved in the direction where the stone had just flew.
At this time, Tian Nongxiang had already avoided more than forty meters to the side, hiding behind a boulder, staring at a strongman. Leaned over and picked up a stone and held it in his hand. "If you can slap that hooked nose, the situation here will be managed. He pondered as he quietly moved towards where the hooked nose was. But Tian Nongxiang didn't dare to get too close to him, after all, this guy's cultivation was not low, at least like Cangyi, if he didn't have that blood soul flag, he might be able to maneuver, but at this moment, Tian Nongxiang didn't dare to make a mistake.
