Chapter 72: Believers
In front of him was a corpse with an extremely strange death.
In addition to these corpses in the house, there is only one hime, a ghost country shinobi, a medical ninja, a total of three living people inside.
Under the watchful eyes of Kazuhime and Kamishinobi, the medical ninja scrutinized the corpses neatly arranged in the room.
Because of the active treatment, even if it is left for a period of time, it does not produce odors.
The medical ninja held a miniature flashlight to shine on the body parts, pupils, nostrils, mouth and other parts of the deceased, which was his key target.
Of course, there were also corpses with bulging chests, as if a huge tumor had suddenly bulged.
The body of the deceased remained in its original state, and even the fear and pain on his face were vividly displayed and undamaged.
"How?"
Kazuhime took a step forward and asked about the medical ninja's test results.
After two days of long travel, she has led a small team of Oni no Kuni ninjas to the land of the valley.
An investigation into the militia injuries here has begun.
Such an abnormal way of dying is obviously not done by ordinary people, but ninjas.
Not only the militia, but even the two ninjas of the Oni Country were murdered here.
The death was exactly the same as that of these militiamen, they were killed by the same person, and in the process of being attacked, there was no resistance at all.
The strength of the attacker is very strong, at least he has the strength of the upper ninja, and it is a very strong kind of upper ninja.
"Some people die because of an object blocking their throats. In addition, the object flows directly into the body, slowly squeezing the internal organs. But either way, the deceased did not die instantly, but slowly watched himself into death, struggling for at least half an hour before dying. β
There was some pity on the face of the medical ninja.
Generally speaking, ninjas kill people in the most concise and clear killing methods, such as torturing the living for half an hour, so that the living people can watch themselves step by step into the abyss of death...... This kind of brutal killing method doesn't feel like something that a regular ninja can do.
Kazuhime's face sank slightly, and the atmosphere inside the room became oppressive.
She pointed to the bulging chest of a part of the corpse and said, "Cut it open and see what's inside." β
"Yes."
Medical ninjas put on protective suits and hoods, and must take precautions before they don't know what is in the body's bulging chest.
He picked up the scalpel and uncovered the clothes of a deceased man, and when he opened his chest, he revealed a hemispherical body, which, when touched, looked like a balloon, as if the chest cavity was filled with water.
But...... It doesn't feel like a water balloon.
This was puzzling to the medical ninja.
With curiosity, he skillfully cut open the bulging chest of the deceased with a scalpel.
Poof.
Poof.
Fluffy, disgusting fluid erupted from the torn wound and splattered the medical ninja's body.
"It's ...... Mud? β
The medical ninja saw what the fluffy fluid was.
The soil is softer than normal soil and flows well.
Because it is not only water but also human blood, the color of the soil is reddish-brown.
"What kind of ninjutsu is this? Did you fall into a soil retreat like the Yellow Spring Swamp and die? β
Kazuhime raised an eyebrow.
The medical ninja shook his head slowly and replied, "No, the death of Huangquannuma is not like this. It should be some kind of unknown ninjutsu...... Or rather, the Blood Inheritance Limit. The soil is mixed with water and earth, and the nature of the chakra is changed, and it is not a simple retreat. β
He pinched a soft mass of mud and sensed the change in the nature of the water and earth chakras in it.
It means that this mud is formed by the mixing of water and soil chakra
After being mixed with the water attribute chakra, the earth has a terrible fluidity, not only the fluidity of the water escape, but also the tenacity and defensive ability of the earth escape.
"Does Tananoku have a ninja village?"
Kazuhime asked Kamishinobu next to him.
"There is no such thing as a ninja village in the conventional sense...... However, in the past, there seems to be a concentration of defector ninjas here, called the 'Valley of Hypocrisy'. However, I remember that the Valley of Hypocrisy was wiped out by Ruri-sama a long time ago. I heard that the people of this place later migrated to other countries. β
Shangnin thought of something and replied.
"You continue to follow up on the investigation, and I'll take the others to the Valley of Hypocrisy to have a look."
Ichihime gave the order, and then left the house and led the people to find the Valley of Hypocrisy.
Although it is not certain that this incident was carried out by the people of the Valley of Hypocrisy, it cannot be ruled out.
β
"Ahh
In the forest, the man who was about to attack suddenly covered his heart.
A sharp pain, like a blade piercing his heart, screamed from his mouth, and a large mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.
He looked incredulously at Fei Duan, who was standing in the blood-red magic circle, holding a black spear piercing his heart, and a blank look flashed in his eyes, completely unaware of what was happening.
Why did the other party pierce his heart, and his heart was also destroyed.
With such incomprehension, and the reluctance to die, the man fell to the ground, convulsed twice and then remained motionless.
"Haha, see, you atheist, this is the end of going against the will of the evil god!"
Seeing the bounty target die in confusion and incomprehension, Fei Duan's mood was full of joy.
God is 'redeeming' the lost Lamb.
That's how it feels.
"Now, it's time to finish the final prayer service."
Although the process of 'redemption' is very important, the finishing work after 'redemption' must also be perfect, without the slightest regret.
Just as he was about to lie down and prepare to pray for the dead, an untimely voice rang in his ears:
"It's amazing, don't you die if your heart is pierced?"
It's a voice that belongs to a stranger.
It's not in vain that you come to find yourself.
"Bastard, who's there?"
Interrupted from the prayer ceremony, unable to enjoy the redemption and mercy that comes with killing, Fei Duan suddenly broke out and looked impatiently towards the source of the sound.
Maybe it's because he has an abnormal immortal body ability, so he doesn't feel the slightest sense of vigilance about strangers approaching him.
It can be called no sense of crisis, or it can be called a large nerve, and the alertness to danger is not high.
"I'm Aoxue, good afternoon."
What came out of the tree was a young man, with the same brown skin and silver hair as the people of the Land of Thunder, and his body was not as tall and powerful as the people of the Land of Thunder, he belonged to the slender type, and even his face was more neutral and soft, and his face was delicate.
But what Fei Duan cares about the most is the other party's eyes.
It's a pair of empty and empty eyes.
But at this time, these empty and empty eyes flashed a look of curiosity.
I guess I had a little interest in the 'Evil God-sama' that Fei Duan was shouting just now.
"Good afternoon, stinky little ghost. You've interrupted the cult's important prayer ritual, and if you don't kill someone like you who disrupts the ritual, the god will be punished. So, be enlightened! β
It was determined that this boy was not an ordinary person, but a ninja with good strength like the bounty target he had just killed.
Fei Duan picked up the blood-red March Scythe and smiled bloodthirsty at the young man named Yuxue.
"Cult of the Evil God...... Lord Evil God......"
Xue Xue repeated these two terms.
"That's right!"
"Great, how do you join the Cult of the Evil God? I want to join this sect! β
Xue Xue raised her head suddenly, as if she had found some answer, and looked at Fei Duan with burning eyes.
"Uh......"
On the contrary, it was the flight segment that was the first to get stuck.
I didn't expect the other party to come to such a hand.
Judging from the sincere and pure gaze of the other party, it seems that it is not a joke, but a real thing.
The other party really wants to join the cult he is in.
A kind of gratuitous emotion filled the heart of Fei Duan.
On more than one occasion, he preached the teachings of the cult within the organization, but the people of the organization were a group of atheists with no faith.
Not only rejected him, but also mocked the cult he belonged to.
If it weren't for the pressure of the leader, I really wanted to treat all these people as sacrifices, carry out 'redemption', and sacrifice them to the great evil god!
Although disturbing the ritual is carried out, a trial is required.
But if you come with a noble belief in the evil god, well, in the eyes of Fei Duan, this is a forgivable behavior.
Thinking of this, Fei Duan couldn't help but have some tears in his eyes.
Finally...... Finally, some people realized the greatness and nobility of the cult.
For a moment, his face was also full of excitement:
"You've got a lot of vision, little ghost. That's right, the cult of the evil god is the only religion in this world, and this rotten ninja world can only be saved by the great evil god masters! β
That's right, this world of ninjas is rotten.
In Feidan's opinion, this boring ninja world needs to be saved.
And the way to save is to kill.
Creating 'salvation' through killing.
Send the lost lambs into the warm embrace of the evil gods, and ascend to heaven.
"Uh-huh."
Xue Xue seems to agree with this point of view.
He felt yearning for the strong faith that burst out of Fei Duan's eyes.
"Okay, I'll tell you about joining the sect when I'm done praying."
As he spoke, Fei Duan lay down in the blood-colored circle, holding up his chest pierced by the black spear, holding the silver pendant chain and began to pray to the evil gods of the Cult.
"Please let me see the brilliance of the evil god up close!"
Yu Xue solemnly asked on the side.
What a faithful, steadfast believer!
Fei Duan wanted to be moved to tears.
"Feel free to observe, as long as you don't disturb me."
Fei Duan didn't mind that Yuxue was close to him.
Yu Xue also walked over quickly, kneeling down next to Fei Duan in an extremely upright posture, looking serious about learning.
It seems to radiate the radiance of a pilgrim.
β¦β¦
"Remember, Xue Xue, if you want to join the Cult of the Evil God, you must understand several important purposes of the Cult."
After the prayer ceremony, Fei Duan stood in front of the young man who wanted to join the Cult of the Evil God, and said the various purposes and teachings of the Cult to Xue with a solemn and solemn expression.
Yan Xue also listened attentively, without the slightest impatience.
Such an attitude makes Fei Duan feel like he has found a confidant.
"First of all, 'you are going to kill your neighbor', 'if someone hits you on the right cheek, you will snatch his left heart', 'killing is equivalent to salvation, negating all senseless killing'......"
Fei Duan began an education that seemed very long and boring to outsiders, but he enjoyed it and worked tirelessly to convey the idea of the cult to Yuxue.
And Xue Xue has always maintained a believer posture of listening carefully.
"Do you remember all of this?"
"Yes, Mr. Feiduan."
Xue Xue replied loudly.
"No, you should call me the Sect Master now. After all, the cult of the evil god has moved away from the one-man religion, well, you are now the bishop under the master. β
Fei Duan preached.
"Yes, Master."
Regarding Yu Xue's attitude, Fei Duan is undoubtedly extremely satisfied.
Master...... What a beautiful word.
It's great, the distance between him and the evil god has been shortened again.
With the first believer joining, will the second believer be far away?
Revive the Cult of the Cult...... Such a great ideal instantly surged into Fei Duan's heart, making him unbearably excited.
"Speaking of which, which village are you a ninja?"
Fei Duan asked the question again.
"Me? In the words of the Lord of Islam, I am from a place called the Valley of Hypocrisy. β
"The Valley of Hypocrisy? What's going on there? β
Fly Duan was curious.
He had heard a lot of ninja institutions, but he had never heard of a place like the Valley of Hypocrisy.
ββ¦β¦ To put it simply, it is a place to escape from the world. Dangerous fugitives from the outside world, in order to escape trouble, a paradise built together. However, since the converging is a dangerous fugitive, in order to maintain order and prevent the feuding fugitives from fighting, everyone who enters must transform and change their personalities to live a new life with a new identity, which means that they will no longer be involved in the strife of the ninja world and enjoy a long peace. β
She briefly describes what the Valley of Hypocrisy is like.
"Huh." Fei Duan showed a mocking laugh, and did not hide the contempt in his tone: "What is this, a group of cowards who dare not face reality? He said that he was trying to get peace, but he was just a coward who was afraid of death. There is no more superficial and ignorant than the man who always pays lip service to peace. β
"Well, the Sect Master is right, that's why I think that place is getting more and more boring. I think the cult might be a better fit for me. That kind of peace, just a false peace. β
Yu Xue nodded yes.
Clearly, he was extremely dissatisfied with the current state of affairs in the Valley of Hypocrisy.
"That's right, Xue Xue, our cult of the gods exists to judge these boring and naΓ―ve people. We need to punish the fools who indulge in false peace. If you want peace and hate war, either way, you will eventually lead to killing. β
Fei Duan's tone seemed quite serious, no longer full of distraction as before.
"There is no such thing as a paradise in this world. After all, if you want to escape from death, escape from war, just die. But the cowards did not dare to resist, nor did they dare to die, they only escaped from reality...... I'll tell you about the ultimate doctrine of the cult of the godsβpeace, which is killing! β
"Peace...... That is, to kill......"
Yu Xue pondered this matter carefully, and her expression was quite shocked.
"In order to complete your redemption, I now command you to destroy the place called the Valley of Hypocrisy. The existence of this place seriously violates the purpose of the cult. Cult of the Evil God, clean up such moths! β
Fei Duan gave such an order to the newly joined believer Yu Xue.
It's in line with the idea he preached before - you're going to kill your neighbor!
"Well, not really, Lord Sect."
Xue Xue paused and said this.
"Well, what's wrong?"
The flight segment is unknown.
I saw a cheerful and happy smile on her delicate face.
"Because the people there have been all eliminated by me not long ago, well, two hundred and three people in total...... One of them is not less, and all of them are killed. β
"Oh, what a good job to be my bishop, good job, Yuxue! You have completed true salvation, and you are indeed a born cultist! β
Fei Duan patted Xue Xue on the shoulder, proud that he had such a vision.
"Well, yes. Next, I'm going to kill someone. β
When Xue Xue said this, a sharp murderous aura flashed in her cloudy eyes.
"Who is it?"
"A woman called 'Ruri Uchiha'. She slew the village chief in the Valley of Hypocrisy, whom I had longed for in the past. If it weren't for her, the Valley of Hypocrisy wouldn't have become like this...... Everything was her fault, it was she who disturbed the tranquility of the land...... She broke my perception of hypocrisy and truth, and made me go from the unreal to the real, and she inadvertently became my guide. Therefore, in order to thank her, I had to kill her...... Well, then give her heart to the great evil god! β
Ao Xue has words.
Although many years have passed since this incident, the name 'Ruri Uchiha' and her appearance still make him remember it, and he has not forgotten it all these years.
The woman.
Honorable woman, hateful woman.
It was she who awakened the reality of the Valley of Hypocrisy and shattered the false peace that once hung over the Valley of Hypocrisy.
In this regard, he has always been angry, and vowed to kill the other party.
It can be said that after burying the Valley of Hypocrisy with his own hands, killing Uchiha Ruri is his only pursuit and goal.
"Ruri Uchiha...... Haven't I heard this name anywhere? It sounds like it's in the same family as Itachi. β
Fei Duan tilted his head, thinking incomprehensibly, where he had heard of this name, and he couldn't remember it for a while.
In fact, he didn't particularly want to know anything other than the cult.
"Does the Sect Master know her whereabouts?"
Xue Xue asked excitedly.
"It's not very clear. But among the people I know, there is indeed a guy with the surname 'Uchiha', maybe you know the woman you said called 'Uchiha Ruri', so it's better to ask him when the time comes. It's really not good, please Bai Jue is the same. Alright, that's the end of the business, let's go. I'll take you to the leader of the organization, and you'll be able to join me in the future. I don't know if your strength is up to par, if you don't, you can only be a substitute. β
Fei Duan picked up the corpse with a large bounty and left the forest with the newly recruited believers.
β
The Valley of Hypocrisy, the old site.
The valley's huge caverns are full of collapsed houses, and muddy mud will cover the caves that can hold the village.
The corpse twisted into an alien state is vividly displayed in the dry and hard mud, posing as a painful struggle when it dies, trying to escape from the village.
The corpse has been decomposing and has been sitting here for some time.
Wearing a gas mask, Kazuhime led a team of Oni no Kuni ninjas here, and what he saw was such a scene in front of him.
Because it was once invaded by Liuli, the illusion enchantment used for defense here has become invalid.
Kazuhime easily led someone to break in.
It's just that she didn't expect that after being invaded by her mother, the remnants of the Valley of Hypocrisy continued to rebuild a village on the collapsed site.
But now, it seems, the village has been devastated again.
And all the villagers were killed, and none of them survived.
The tragic condition of the corpse is the same as that of the dead militia and the ninja of the Oni Country.
Needless to say, all of these people died at the hands of the same person.
Yiji frowned in embarrassment, based on these alone, there was no way to determine who the murderer was.
Whether the murderer is male or female, tall or short, he is also at a loss.
It is only known that a special bloodline limit is used.
"Recover all the corpses here, and hopefully their brains are still intact."
From the wounds of the corpse, and since the scene cannot be determined, it can only start from the memories left by the corpse.
This is also the quickest way to know the real culprit.
"Yes."
The Oni no Kuni ninja began to dispose of the already somewhat decomposed corpses, preserving them one by one in the scrolls.
Just as the ninjas of the Oni Country were cleaning up these corpses, a series of figures also followed the path of the cave and came here, lined up in a formation.
Ichihime looked at it fixedly, and the ninjas who appeared here were not the ninja troops to which the country of ghosts belonged, but the shadows of Yunyin.
There are eight people in total.
The two upper ninjas took the lead, and the other six were all middle ninjas with good strength.
"Why are you from the shadows here?"
Because Yun Yin communicated with the country of ghosts in advance and would come to the country of Gu to inquire about some things, it was not surprising that Yun Yin's dark part appeared in the country of Tani.
"On the orders of Lord Thunder Shadow, we have come to find the defected ninja who haunts the country of the valley. However, it seems that the other party is not here. β
One of the leading Yunyin Shadow Upper Shinobi replied.
"This is the Valley of Hypocrisy, but there is no traitor you are looking for, please go back."
Kazuhime refused coldly.
"Excuse me."
Hearing the meaning of Ichihime driving people away, Yun Yin's dark department had no choice but to retreat, and it was very unwise to fight the ninjas of the country of ghosts here.
Watching the clouds leave, Yiji continued to direct the on-site personnel to recover the corpses here.
Regarding Yun Yin's actions in the country of Valley, Ichihime just turned a blind eye and didn't pay much attention to it.
------Off topic------
(Yu Xue is an official character who is curious about the Cult of the Evil God and intends to join, although he was later killed by Fei Duan himself...... As for the strength, if it weren't for the horns being reminded by the side, there was a high probability that the flying section would overturn. As for the brain, like Feiduan, it doesn't seem to be very normal, and it doesn't like to think. οΌ
