A cold wind blew, the bright fire swayed, and several people gathered around the fire to devour something.

Although there were more than 20 corpses lying on the ground, the surrounding area was full of the smell of blood, and there were a few screams from time to time in the back mountain, a few people didn't care at all, and still ate what they had in their hands with relish until the screams next to them stopped.

"Damn, old king, you can't move faster, the meat is almost cold." One of the one-eyed dragons stood up, patted the dirt on its armor, and shouted behind him.

"Okay, okay, Seventh Master, those spirit stones have turned black." The man who was called the old king's head was missing the fingers of both hands, so he had to put his hands together and carefully hold a few black spirit stones.

The Seventh Master took the black stone and looked greedily at these valuable stones that he had exchanged for dozens of lives, and this one was worth his salary for several years.

I thought it would be a chore to be stationed here at Yuelong Pass, but I didn't expect to make a lot of money unexpectedly, but thinking that a few brothers around him were looking at him, he took his eyes away from the spirit stone and said to a person next to him:

"Ah Liang, tomorrow you go to the town, exchange these spirit stones for silver, and then buy a few white stones.

Siqi and Houshu outside the mountain are fighting, there will definitely be people who flee to us, we will guard here, if they have few people, they will be arrested to refine spirit stones. ”

Ah Liang nodded, took the spirit stones from the seventh master and did not speak, he was the nephew of the seventh master, and he couldn't speak after his tongue was cut off a few years ago.

In fact, several of the people here were either mutilated or wounded, but they were all wearing armor and weapons, and no one would think they were easy to mess with.

Of course, they are not bandits or rebellious troops, but the officers and soldiers stationed in Yuelong Pass in the Later Jin Dynasty, this place is surrounded by mountains, and the only official road was destroyed by the order of the lord of the Later Jin Dynasty, and people outside can only climb over the mountains if they want to enter.

"Old Wangtou, those people are still angry, right?"

"Of course, Seventh Master, I have a measured approach, and I won't let them die so easily."

"Well, don't let them die too quickly, we still expect them to get rich, of course, it's best to go crazy, so that you can find the government to get a reward."

"Alas, if only there was some kind of heart in that group of refugees, so that we could not only make a fortune but also become a great official.

The rich man Li in my town handed over his daughter-in-law who had hysteria, and it turned out to be the heart that the saint was looking for, and the saint was happy and let him be a waiter. A soldier next to him talked about his hometown.

"How can Xinsu be so easy to find, it would be good if we could catch a few more crazy people and make more money, it's strange to say, isn't this Xinsu crazy, what's the difference between other crazy people."

"Hehehehe, do you want to find Xinsu, I have here, there are several." As several soldiers were chatting, a strange laugh came from them.

"Someone." The Seventh Master drew his sword and looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see four black-clothed men appear not far from them at some point, and they didn't notice it at all.

The voice was a fat man among the men in black, he pulled away the black clothes on his body, and saw several heads sewn into his belly, and the eyes of those heads kept turning, and their mouths made bursts of sounds, and they were still alive.

"Don't you want to be a vegetarian, I'm all of them, come and get it."

Even if it was the Seventh Master and a group of officers and soldiers who had killed countless people, their scalps were numb when they saw this scene.

"Don't be afraid, brothers, there are only four of them, even the monsters are made of meat, let's hack them to death together."

The Seventh Master plucked up his courage and said, but as soon as his words fell, the fat man disappeared in front of his eyes, he only felt a sharp pain in his chest, and only saw a hand inserted into his chest, and then took out a red thing from it.

The Seventh Master fell, and the last scene he saw was that the fat man grabbed his heart and bit him a few times, and then threw it into the mouth of the human head above his stomach.

The seventh master died, and his other dozen brothers were not much better, and they were soon killed by three men in black, and there were more than a dozen corpses on the ground.

"Tut-tut, there's something interesting about this." An old man among the men in black picked up the black stones on the ground and looked at them carefully.

"Alright, old man, don't look at it, go and peel it."

The only woman in black said, only to see her turn over the female corpse of a refugee, take out a tool and skillfully peel off a complete human skin, and then I saw her strip off her clothes one by one, but she did not stop until the last piece of cloth on her body was gone.

I saw that the skin on her own body was also taken off like clothes, and a humanoid flesh appeared in front of the three men in black, but they were not surprised, but followed the example of a woman and skinned the corpse, and after a while, several people were replaced with new skins and completely changed their appearance.

"Whew, it's much more comfortable, the old human skin has been used for more than a month." The old man from before said, but he changed the skin of Ah Liang and became a young man.

"There are a few more alive in the back, I'll go and slaughter them and feed them to my babies." The fat man in black touched his belly and walked towards the back mountain, and the woman said to the man in black who had not spoken:

"Speaking of clothing protectors, what is our mission this time, let's talk about it now."

"More than a month ago, our messenger from the Skinless Sect went to this country to look for a heart element, but the messenger didn't know who killed him, and we found the person who killed the messenger and the heart element."

After the Protector finished speaking, the old man continued:

"Well, it's interesting to talk about the emperor of this country, who was originally just a down-and-out talent in the Southern Zhou Kingdom, but somehow became a general's staff.

Later, the Southern Zhou Kingdom was destroyed by Hou Shu, the general retreated to Yuelong Pass with his subordinates to restore the country, but he was killed, he surrendered to Hou Shu with the general's men and horses, and Hou Shu casually rewarded him with an official.

As a result, within a few years, he raised troops again, occupied several cities and established himself as the king, the country was called Houjin, I heard that this person would have several powerful magical powers, relying on this to defeat the army of Houshu, but I don't know which sect he came from. ”

The Yi Protector looked at the few black spirit stones in Lao Gao's hand, and it was the first time he had seen this thing:

"Mr. Gao, is there anything wrong with the few black stones you just saw, according to the news sent back by the messenger, the emperor of the Later Jin Dynasty ordered the collection of this kind of stone from the people, which may be related to his cultivation of supernatural powers."

"These stones seem to have been nourished by the pain obtained by torturing people, and I only know about the Zorojingjiao through the sect of painful cultivation, but this Zorojingjiao is all torturing themselves, and these officers and soldiers are torturing others to nourish the stones, which is a bit strange."
