Chapter Twenty-Nine: Cutting Flesh for Blood

At the bottom of the cave, Yun Hongyue didn't expect that he would come out of the so-called inner demon.

Thinking back to the scene she had just experienced, she still had a little scratching her head.

Speaking of which, what is the key to her breaking the demons in her heart? Was it the sword that stabbed Xingyan?

Also, why did Xing Yan want to take off his mask.

Could it be that she was curious about the face under Xing Yan's mask before, so the demon wanted to fulfill her wish before Xing Yan died?

Yun Hongyue couldn't figure it out, but looked at the unconscious man who was still in a coma next to her and felt worried.

"Lu Li, what's going on over there, why haven't you woken up yet."

Yun Hongyue was worried, and looked at the magic bead that was still held in his palm, and wanted to take it over and check it to see if he could find a way to wake him up.

Yun Hongyue's fingers only touched the magic bead, and before she could hold the magic bead in her hand, a ghostly light suddenly flashed in the magic bead, and Yun Hongyue fell unconscious again.

"Hmm......"

Yun Hongyue woke up rubbing her groggy head in a bush, and looking around, the environment she was in was like a back garden in a deep courtyard.

Just wondering what kind of place this was, suddenly there was a slight sound of footsteps behind the stone arch in front of her, and Yun Hongyue hurriedly hid her figure behind a cluster of flower branches.

I saw a few medicine boys walking from behind the archway, all of them holding palm-sized copper bowls in their hands, and they didn't know what was in the bowl, exuding a bloody smell mixed with the smell of herbs.

Yun Hongyue wanted to see the contents of the bowl more clearly, so she couldn't help but touch her toes, and her slightly leaning forward body touched the swaying flower branches, making a slight sound.

The medicine boy who walked at the back paused and looked sideways in the direction where Yun Hongyue was.

"What's wrong?" The medicine boy who walked at the front looked back and asked.

"There's going on over there."

The medicine boy at the front looked in the direction of his gaze, then shook his head, "Nothing." Let's go, Akatsuki Zhenren is in urgent need of medicine, and beware of being punished if it's late. ”

Hearing this, several medicine boys all shrank their necks in fear, and hurriedly hurried to leave.

After a few people left completely, Yun Hongyue walked out from behind the flowers.

What the hell is this place? Who is the real person of Akatsuki in the mouth of the medicine boy?

After thinking about it, Yun Hongyue decided to follow those medicine boys to find out.

Chased in the direction where the medicine boy left, and soon saw the figures of the medicine boy at the end of a long corridor.

Yun Hongyue hid and followed these medicine boys to an attic.

After a few medicine boys walked into the pavilion, Yun Hongyue cautiously walked around to the side window, and through the crack in the window, he saw a huge Dan furnace in the center of the pavilion.

At this time, the top of the Dan furnace was filled with mist, and a man wearing a red robe and looking enchanting was pacing anxiously in front of the Dan furnace.

Seeing a few medicine boys walking in, the man hurriedly urged: "How is it, how much did you take this time?" ”

The medicine boy who was the leader bowed slightly to him and said respectfully: "Back to the real person, this time I took a total of four bowls." ”

"Only four bowls?" The man frowned, and then flicked his robe, "Forget it, four bowls are just four bowls, now hurry up and pour the medicine in." ”

Following the movements of the medicine boy on the far right, Yun Hongyue saw him pour the blood-like medicine in the copper bowl down the tiny groove outside the Dan furnace.

Soon, the scarlet veins spread along the perimeter of the Dan Furnace, eventually flowing into the interior of the Dan Furnace.

When the Dan furnace absorbed all the so-called medicinal leads, a burst of strange fragrance suddenly wafted out from the Dan furnace, and when they smelled this smell, the expressions of several people present became fascinated.

Mato Akatsuki took a deep breath, the smell in the air seemed to give him a mysterious power, and that power moistened his entire heart, making him feel pleasure between his eyebrows.

Waving his sleeves to dispel a lot of this smell, Akatsuki Zhenren straightened his face and said, "Did he obediently cooperate with this blood collection?" ”

"It's strange to say, last time he struggled so badly, not only knocked over a copper bowl, but also broke his wrist with strong resistance, but this time it was very quiet, and he didn't say a word."

Thinking of the scene of this blood extraction, several medicine boys felt a little strange, that person seemed to die overnight, and he didn't even know the pain, and he didn't frown when he cut the flesh to take blood.

"Hmph, it's finally a little more interesting." Akatsuki Zhenren snorted coldly, and suddenly said again: "Or ninety-nine swords?" ”

"Yes, the number of knives he can take each blood cut is the maximum he can bear."

"This useless thing, after feeding him with so many elixirs and spiritual herbs, the blood taken out is getting less and less."

Akatsuki Zhenren muttered, and several medicine boys didn't dare to say anything when they heard it.

Yun Hongyue had long realized that the so-called medicine was blood, but she didn't expect that the blood was actually taken from people.

Especially the careless ninety-nine knives in their mouths, how painful it should be to cut their bodies.

What's even more alarming is that this cruel thing happened more than once, and even countless times afterward.

Yun Hongyue couldn't imagine what kind of person could live under such cruel torture.

Returning to the back garden where she appeared, Yun Hongyue began to think about what was going on in the current scene.

All the people and objects that appear here are strange to her, especially here she is more like a bystander.

Could it be that this could be Lu Li's inner demon?

This thought made Yun Hongyue suddenly startled, but this statement was obviously the most likely.

If you want to find out if this is Lu Li's inner demon, it depends on whether she can find Lu Li here.

Although he didn't want to believe it, Yun Hongyue probably already knew who "he" would be in the mouths of Akatsuki Zhenren and those medicine boys.

Looking at the stone arch in front of her, Yun Hongyue inexplicably felt terrible about the environment behind it, but thinking that Lu Li might be there, Yun Hongyue still walked in.

Behind the stone arch is a lonely path, flanked by a desolate forest in the depths, which leads to a large courtyard.

Directly in front of the courtyard is a magnificent hall with old bricks and tiles, and many of the doors and windows of the hall have been peeled off, revealing the original wood color.

Yun Hongyue watched from afar, not daring to step forward easily.

After secretly observing for a long time, he found that there seemed to be no one guarding here, so he cautiously walked to the front of the hall and hesitantly pushed open the closed wooden door of the main hall.

At this time, it was dusk, the candles in the hall were not burned, and the vision was very dim.

Yun Hongyue walked in and closed the door of the palace with her hand, and the last piece of light was blocked behind her, making her feel a little uneasy in her heart.

Looking around the entire hall, the environmental facilities are spotless, but in the darkness it is full of depression.
