Episode 4 Blood Sacrifice

"Yes, it's in a valley twenty kilometers ahead, and there are a lot of them!" said the scout, his face pale. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"A lot?!What's going on?!Is it a massacre by the Vietnamese army?What else have you found?" Tang Long on the side hurriedly asked.

"Hmm... We don't know exactly how many remains there are, because the scene is so tragic! And there are some traces of spiritual power fluctuations nearby, as if someone once performed some rituals there. The scout muttered.

"Let's go and have a look!" Lin Da, Tang Long and the others glanced at each other, and immediately got up and left the carriage, taking a group of people and horses, and under the leadership of this scout, they stepped on the flying magic plate and flew into the distance.

More than ten minutes later, Linda and the others finally saw the valley where the remains were found. From a distance, I saw a scarlet color in the valley, and two or three kilometers away, you could smell the stench of the corpse's decay, and a huge ominous aura enveloped the valley.

Seeing this, Linda and her companion glanced at each other, and their faces became even more gloomy.

"Is it really a massacre?" said Linda, who skipped the scene he least wanted to see.

A moment later, they quickly flew over the valley, and when they saw the scene in the valley, everyone was immediately startled by the terrifying scene at the scene, and several people couldn't help but vomit on the spot.

I saw that in this valley within a radius of several miles, it was all piled with human corpses and remains. All the corpses were torn to shreds in a very cruel way, the crushed human heads, internal organs, organs, bones, flesh and blood were mixed together, and spread evenly on the ground like meat patties, and the whole valley was reflected in the terrible red color of flesh and blood, and the air was mixed with a disgusting stench, and great fear enveloped the whole valley!

"What's going on?!How can this be!" After a long while, Tang Long recovered a little from the huge shock and asked with a pale face.

"It's terrible! It's cruel!" Schroeder clenched his fists, his eyes bursting with fire.

"Why is this happening? What is going on? Is this really the work of the Vietnamese army? How did they do this?!" asked Captain Modern with a gloomy face.

It is not surprising that there have been massacres of civilians in war, both on Earth and in other worlds, but the mass slaughter in such a brutal and bloody way is the first time everyone has seen it, and they are immediately frightened.

"Where are the traces of the ritual you found?" Lynda asked calmly as she looked at the valley for a moment, calmly to the scout who had discovered it.

"Report to General Lin, right in the middle of the valley. The scout pointed far into the middle of the valley.

The group followed the scout's direction, and sure enough, there was an unusually prominent place in the middle of the valley, and a building like a platform was erected, but because it was also covered in blood, everyone did not immediately notice it when they arrived.

"Let's see!" Linda was not verbose, and immediately took the lead and flew away, and soon came to the sky above the building.

"What is this platform used for? Was it built by the Vietnamese army? Does it have anything to do with the massacre here?" Tang Long asked himself while carefully observing the platform, as if he wanted to find some excuse from the clues left on it.

Lin Da stared at the platform for a while, although he had never seen anything like this, but judging from some of the spiritual power fluctuations left on the scene, some kind of ritual should have been held here, and the scale should be very large. What's even more suspicious is that, judging from the flow of spiritual power, this ritual should have a lot to do with the human wreckage everywhere.

"It's really miserable! There are at least 100,000 corpses here, right? The Vietnamese army could do such a cruel thing! It's really hateful!" Tang Long said angrily, clenching his fists tightly.

"Why did they slaughter these people? Didn't they intend to occupy Gui Guo? What good did it do them to massacre civilians like this? Did they do it for genocide? It was unnecessary? There must be some reason!" Captain Modern became more and more suspicious of the motives of the Vietnamese army.

For cultivators, although mortals are small, they are also the necessary foundation to maintain their rule, and the labor of mortals can provide them with a large amount of living materials, do all kinds of coolies that cultivators are unwilling to bend to do, provide them with taxes and tribute, and are the source of a large number of low-level forces in the cultivators' army. It is precisely because of so many benefits that the secular world is ruled by cultivators, and certain rules have been established according to their consciousness, allowing mortals to multiply under their control, and will never do anything to slaughter mortals at will.

Everyone observed for a while, but found no effective clues, and were about to leave this place where they felt extremely uncomfortable, when suddenly Linda remembered something, and immediately stopped everyone, saying, "Wait a minute! This seems to be..."

"Linda, have you found anything?" Tang Long asked strangely as he stared at Linda's puzzled expression.

Although Lin Da didn't know it, but the inheritance bead retained Peng Zu's knowledge and experience for thousands of years, and the legends and stories he had seen were countless, it was with this in mind that Lin Da had just probed his spiritual sense into the inheritance bead, wanting to find out the news of the acquaintance with the following rituals. After a long search, he did find some useful information.

"It's like... Some kind of demonic ritual?!" Linda said with some uncertainty.

"Demon Dao, no wonder it's so bloody!" Tang Long said with disgust as if he remembered something.

Just as there are positive and negative sides to things, there are also two different factions in the cultivation realm, the righteous path and the demon path, with two completely different cultivation methods, one pursues going with the flow, talking about slow progress and water gathering, and the other pursues forcible seizure, seeking to advance by leaps and bounds and ascend to the sky in one step. The people of the Demon Dao often practice those dark and strange exercises, and the methods they use are also extremely dark and terrifying, so they often do some bloody and cruel things.

But this is not to say that the righteous path is better than the devil's way, many righteous people are under the slogan of doing the right way for heaven, in fact, there are not a few hypocrisy, hypocrites and the like. If there is enough benefit, its means are not much gentler than the Demon Dao. However, most of the time, most Righteous Path cultivators still have to pretend to be righteous and awe-inspiring. It was precisely because of this that Tang Long would immediately associate the bloody scene below with the Demon Dao.

"There seems to be a little clue in Peng Zu's memory, but it doesn't seem to look like it..."Lin Dayu hesitated.

"Not quite like that, then do you know what the hell is going on?, what kind of ritual is it that wants to kill so many people?" Tang Long asked a little anxiously.

"Peng Zu's predecessors have never seen this kind of ritual ritual, but he has seen a similar ritual in an ancient book, and that kind of ritual is also extremely rare in the Demon Dao, it seems to be called blood sacrifice. Lynda pondered, and finally called out the name of the ceremony.

"Blood Sacrifice?!" Hearing this strange title, Tang Long and the others looked at each other and asked in surprise.

"Yes, Blood Sacrifice!" Lin Da said with a gloomy face: "Blood Sacrifice is when a person of the Demon Dao chooses a specific time to kill a large number of living beings within a certain range, and then borrows the power of the spirit of living beings to do some things that are difficult to do under normal circumstances. For example, summon some fierce beasts or spirits, search for certain objects with specific symbols on a large scale, or directly collect the power of spirits to refine some powerful treasures. ”

"Then can you know what the purpose of this blood sacrifice is?" Tang Long asked strangely.

Lin Da shook his head and said, "I can't see this, although the following ritual is bloody, it is not necessarily a blood sacrifice ceremony, and there is too little information left. ”

"No matter what the ceremony is, this must have been done by the Vietnamese army! I didn't expect them to be so cruel, and the ordinary people of Gui Kingdom are going to have a great calamity!" Captain Modern sighed deeply and said a little sadly.

Lin Da thought for a moment and said, "What happened here, we will investigate it carefully in the future, as long as we catch a Vietnamese officer and interrogate it well, we will know the answer we want." It's a pity that the general of the Vietnamese army Danjing was only banned and let go by me, otherwise he might know more from his mouth. ”

"Hmph, that Yue General killed a lot of us, why didn't you kill him?" Tang Long asked with a little dissatisfaction.

Lin Da shook his head and said, "When is the time for retribution! The killing aura of the Xiuzhen battlefield is so heavy, once captured on the battlefield, there is no possibility of survival at all. I just wanted to set a humanitarian precedent on the battlefield, and I didn't want to make the war too cruel! What's more, he had already been forbidden by me from Peng Zu's predecessors, unless there was a monk who cultivated above the infant realm and was familiar with secret mantras, he didn't want to use a little more mana in his life, let him change from a cultivator to a mortal, this would also be a huge punishment for him. ”

"Hehe, Linda, you're a pacifist, but even if you want peace, the current situation is not up to us, and if we fall into their hands, they will never be soft on us. Tang Long shook his head, disapproving of Linda's approach.

"Maybe! But this situation will change later! When we are strong, they will have to sit down and reason with us. Okay, let's get out of here quickly! We have to speed up the march, this terrible situation shows that the Vietnamese army's invasion methods are becoming more and more cruel and terrible, I am very worried about the safety of Xiaoyu County!" Linda glanced at the platform below, then turned and flew in the direction of the army.

Tang Long, Schroeder and the others glanced at each other, and hurriedly followed, but in their hearts, they slowly understood what Lin Da had just said.

When they returned to their ranks, they immediately commanded the army to speed up their march and soon moved away from this terrible area.

But as they continued to advance into the territory of Guiguo, they found more and more destruction by the Vietnamese army, and even found several massacres on a scale no less than the bloody ritual sites found before, which made Lin Da and the others feel more and more heavy.

After another three days of marching, although the Mortal Legion was extremely careful along the way, the Scouts of the Mortal Legion unexpectedly encountered a group of Vietnamese troops while passing through a valley. (To be continued.) )
