Chapter II: Cleanup
After going down for two or three hundred steps, I came to a stone platform, the stone platform was not big, there was a cave more than one zhang high on the stone wall near the top of the mountain, the stone door at the entrance of the cave was wide open, and the inside was dark.
This is the cave of the Black Wind Ancestor, and the rock wall on the top of the cave is engraved with three blood-red characters of "Black Wind Cave".
There is a fierce and bloody meaning in the words, which makes people feel uncomfortable when they look at it.
Chen Jing turned his head sideways, saw that Liu Fei'er also looked up at these words, frowned slightly, and said, "Senior sister, cut off the three words 'Batu Cave'." ”
"Good!"
Liu Fei'er nodded, shook her shoulders, and a golden rainbow rose to the sky in the sound of a dragon's groan.
Liu Fei'er stretched out his hand and pointed to the top of the cave, the golden rainbow flew away, the sword light on the stone wall was vertical and horizontal, the broken stones fell one after another, and after a while, the golden light dissipated, and the rock wall had become flat and neat, and there was no word.
"Beautiful!" Chen Jing cheered.
Liu Fei'er smiled slightly, and the golden rainbow in the sky flew back to the scabbard with a little streamer.
Chen Jing saw Liu Fei'er's smile in the corner of his eyes, and he was also in a bright mood, but if he wanted to practice peacefully with his junior sister in Lingyan Mountain, if he wanted to realize the grand plan in his heart, he had to solve the trouble in front of him first.
He walked into the cave first, and was confronted by a scorched smell after the fire burned, mixed with a faint fishy smell, and the pine cones behind him smelled the smell and couldn't help but snort.
Yesterday, when the Heavenly Wind Master and the Black Wind Ancestor were fighting, the Black Wind Ancestor sacrificed the black wind in the sky, and there were countless fierce evil gods hidden in the black wind, and the master found that these evil gods were made of the blood sacrifice of the monk's soul with the law of the Demon Dao, so he was really angry, and used the magic power of "Wind and Thunder Annihilation" in the Nine Changes of the Heavenly Wind to kill the Black Wind Ancestor.
After entering the Batu Cave, Master burned the Black Wind Ancestor's blood sacrifice site with thunder fire, so now the cave is full of this smell.
The roof of the cave is inlaid with pearls, and under the dim pearl light, it is gloomy everywhere. Chen Jing didn't like everything in this cave, and he made up his mind not to live in this cave.
After yesterday's great battle, the Black Wind Ancestor and his three disciples had already been ambushed, and now they had to deal with the seven or eight remaining servants in the Black Wind Cave.
The Batu Caves are a demon cave, and these servants are more or less suspected of helping to commit abuse, although some of them must be persecuted.
Most of the servants had cultivation in the Qi refining period, and as far as Chen Jing knew, many disciples like Black Wind Ancestor were selected from among the servants for their casual cultivation.
Chen Jing is not a person who is easy to kill, now he wants to interrogate these servants, kill those who should be killed, and let them go.
The inside of the Batu Cave is very large, with two floors, the upper floor has dozens of caves, and the lower floor is the place of blood sacrifice.
Coming to a stone room closest to the entrance of the cave, Chen Jing glanced at Liu Fei'er, and seeing that she was not distracted, he reached out and removed a shimmering talisman on the stone door, and then pushed the stone door open.
There were eight people in the stone chamber, sitting and standing, and some of them were lying down, and they all looked at the door together when they heard the door open.
These servants have been in the Batu Caves all the year round, most of them are pale and obscene, and now their faces are numb, or fearful, or desperate, or expectant, and some have flashing eyes, and their hearts are full of ghosts.
A middle-aged woman with half-black and half-white hair trembled and pleaded: "Shangxian, I am just a cook, and I have never done anything unreasonable......
Chen Jing didn't wait for her to finish, he released the coercion of the early stage of foundation building, interrupted her words, and blocked back the words that others came to their lips.
He glanced at the eight people in the stone room, and the servants did not dare to look at each other, and lowered their heads one after another. Chen Jing said in a deep voice:
"Don't worry about those who are not guilty, those who are guilty also have a chance to make meritorious contributions and live, don't speak now, I will call one out and one will come out, and those who riot will die!"
Chen Jing paused, casually pointed to a servant closest to the door and said, "You, come out!" ”
This is a middle-aged man with two whiskers on his lips, his body trembling like chaff, and he slowly moved his steps out of the stone gate.
Chen Jing slapped him on the shoulder, sealing his mana, this person's legs were weak and he almost fell, Chen Jing shouted in a low voice: "Stand firm!" Go to the stone platform outside the cave and wait. ”
In this way, Chen Jing called out the servants one by one to seal the mana.
These people are terribly afraid, and they don't know if they know that their sins are deep and they can't escape death, or if they are simply afraid of Chen Jing, a "fairy" who is not easy to talk to.
"You!"
Chen Jing pointed to a woman, who stood next to the middle-aged woman who had previously called herself a cook, who looked to be in her twenties, and the servant's old clothes could not hide her charm.
She walked over with some trepidation like the others, and when she walked in front of Chen Jing, she stumbled on her feet, let out a coquettish cry, and fell down towards Chen Jing.
Chen Jing raised his eyebrows, took two steps back like lightning, and a small wooden shield flew out of his sleeve to block him.
The woman's body fell halfway, and when she saw Chen Jing retreating, the weakness on her face turned into astonishment, and instantly changed to vicious and fierce.
Her arms were slightly raised, and a gust of black wind rushed out of her sleeve to rush towards Chen Jing, and dozens of faint poisonous needles shot out silently with the black wind.
Chen Jing used his mana to urge the blue light shield, and a green light emitted from the small shield, and the green light formed a huge light shield to seal the stone gate.
The black wind swept in, but it couldn't shake the light shield in the slightest, and the poisonous needle pierced the green light shield and made a fine "snort" sound, and then slipped off the shield one after another.
Seeing that the black wind poisonous needle was useless, the charming woman pressed her hand on the door, and her body flew back upside down, directly hitting the middle-aged woman who claimed to be a cook.
Maybe you can exchange the cook's life for your own life, the woman thought for a moment.
Her originally delicate face was now distorted and hideous, with a layer of black gas on it, like a ghost, and the middle-aged woman didn't have time to dodge, and her eyes couldn't help but show fear and despair.
She was about to close her eyes and wait for death, when she suddenly saw the ghostly woman's eyebrows shining with a golden rainbow light, the rainbow light flashed away, and the woman in mid-air rolled down to the feet of the middle-aged woman with a "plop".
"You, come out!"
Chen Jing didn't wait for the middle-aged woman to scream, he pointed at her and snorted softly, and gave his senior sister Liu Fei'er a thumbs up with his other hand behind him.
Liu Fei'er summoned the golden rainbow sword back to the top of her head, the golden sword light illuminated the surroundings, and the corners of her mouth curled up when she saw Chen Jing's gesture.
Songguo saw Chen Jing retreat and offered a small shield, although he didn't know where the danger came from, he hurriedly summoned a layer of yellow light to cover his body.
The junior sister usually looks stunned when she understands the swordsmanship, but when it comes to the critical moment, she reacts quickly and unambiguously.
Soncone is far from being a minor, but now there are some generals.
When the middle-aged woman came out, Chen Jing sealed her mana as usual, and then asked without showing joy, "What's your name?" ”
The middle-aged woman was shocked, grateful with some trepidation, and she said honestly: "The people's girl's name is Liu Wuniang. ”
Chen Jing pointed to the woman on the ground and asked, "What's her name?" How many disciples of the Black Wind Old Monster? ”
Liu Wuniang didn't dare to look at the ground with her eyes, she replied softly: "Her name is Feng Fifteen, we all call her Fifteen Niang, I don't know how many disciples of Lao Zu are." ”
Feng Fifteen was hiding in the servants, so the servants were all afraid, how could this cook dare to be the first to speak? Obviously, it was also instructed by Feng Fifteen.
Chen Jing secretly thought that he was a human being in two lives, and he was well-informed, and he even thought about how to react when he encountered this situation, Feng Fifteen's trick was really old-fashioned, and it was too uninspiring.
He was also cautious in dealing with several of his servants, and this caution now proved to be necessary.
Chen Jing then asked, "What are the names of the few who died yesterday?" ”
Those few are the disciples of the Black Wind Ancestor, who have been cultivating in the Black Wind Cave all the year round, Liu Wuniang knows it, she said: "It's Wind Six, Wind Seven and Wind Twelve." ”
These disciples of the Black Wind Cave seem to have Feng as their surname and their name as their ranks, so there are quite a few apprentices of the Black Wind Old Monster.
Thinking of this, Chen Jing asked, "Is there only a few disciples of the Black Wind Old Monster?" Are there still people who have gone out and not returned? ”
Liu Wuniang thought about it and said with a little hesitation: "...... There seems to be another one called Feng Jiu, I heard that he is the leader of the Black Wind Thieves, and the others ...... It's like, they're all dead. ”
It seems that it is not safe to be a disciple of the Black Wind Old Monster.
"Okay, if you are a cook, go get some more dry food and water, take it to the stone platform outside the cave and wait, and tell the people outside that Feng Fifteen is dead."
Feng Jiu, the Black Wind Thief ......, maybe there will be some trouble in the future, Chen Jing thought.
There was only one last servant left in the house, Chen Jing sealed his mana, asked him to pick up the poisonous needle on the ground at the door of the stone room, and then entered the house and came to the corpse of Feng Fifteen,
This Feng Fifteen is the early stage of foundation building, and like Chen Jing's cultivation, she deliberately hid it, and Chen Jing didn't find any clues before.
Maybe Master Tianfeng Venerable had already found out, but yesterday he first burned the cave of the Blood Sacrifice in a rage, and then re-refined the formation disk of the Black Wind Cave Great Array, and then suddenly had an epiphany, so he didn't have time to deal with it.
After all, Feng Fifteen was only in the early stage of foundation building, and in the eyes of a Yuanying monk like Master, he was like an ant at all, insignificant.
Chen Jing searched for a storage bag from Feng Fifteen, and then punched out a fire talisman to turn the corpse into ashes.
After the last servant picked up the poison needle at the door of the stone room, Chen Jing put away the poison needle and walked out of the cave with his junior sister and pine cone.
When he arrived at the stone platform, Chen Jing saw that some of the servants had finally seen the light of day, and learned that Feng Fifteen had died, and then there was hope on his face, while some of the servants were even more panicked.
Chen Jing took out the servants one by one for interrogation alone, and soon figured out that the four people, including the cook Liu Wuniang and the rat-bearded man Du Er, were not guilty of any major evil, and the minor mistakes they committed were also forced to be helpless, and the other three were guilty of death.
However, Chen Jing said that meritorious service can live, and these three people are more deeply connected with the master and apprentice of the Black Wind Old Monster, and confessed a lot of information that the other four servants did not understand.
The Black Wind Thief is one of the six great cowards who are ravaging the Shattered Star Hills, and behind it is the support of the Black Wind Ancestor.
The big leader in the Black Wind Thieves, Feng San, and the small leader Feng Jiu, are both disciples of the Black Wind Ancestor, of which Feng San is in the middle stage of Jiedan, and Feng Jiu is in the middle stage of foundation building.
This is the Yuchen realm, and the cultivation realm is divided into several major realms from low to high, such as qi refining, foundation building, knotting, yuanying, and transforming gods, and each major realm can be divided into three small realms: the early stage, the middle stage, and the late stage.
Chen Jing and Liu Fei'er were both in the early stage of foundation building, and the two of them thought that even the enemy in the late stage of foundation building could win in battle, but Feng San, a monk in the middle stage of the foundation building, was a whole realm higher than Chen Jing and Liu Fei'er, and they were a strong enemy that they could not defeat.
However, Master Tianfeng Venerable even killed the Black Wind Ancestor in the early stage of the Yuan Infant, and Feng San would have hid far away if he was smarter, and would not come to Lingyan Mountain to find trouble.
The Venerable Heavenly Wind is in retreat, but his prestige is the talisman of Lingyan Mountain.
Chen Jing let go of the four servants who were not guilty of death, and allowed them to bring some dry food and water.
These people have been in the Batu Cave for a long time, even if they are innocent, their hearts will inevitably be a little distorted, and Chen Jing doesn't want them to stay on the mountain.
Three of them committed capital crimes, and Chen Jing abolished their cultivation and drove them down the mountain.
Chen Jingyan believes that he will not kill them, but he will not let these wicked people go lightly, they have no cultivation and no dry food and water, whether they can get out of Lingyan Mountain alive depends on whether the gods and Buddhas are willing to bless them.
