Chapter 38: The Devil's Cave

Old Man Han has led the army to fight countless battles in his life, and has experienced all kinds of bloody storms, but to be honest, this is really the first time that he led the army to set fire to an academy.

Fortunately, with Han Jing here, the old man actually doesn't have to command it himself! Moreover, Han Jing's heavenly sense has already locked a certain area, so there is no need for the army to set fires everywhere!

"This is it!"

Leading everyone and a large army directly into the mountains and forests in an academy, Han Jing looked at the bamboo sea on the mountain, and coldly ordered: "Surround this mountain and forest, burn it!"

The reason for this is that October had disappeared from his Extreme Realm Consciousness since he came here. And after that, Han Jing has been locking this place with his heavenly sense, and he has determined that no one has left here since he entered the mountain forest in October.

In this way, there must be some good place to hide in the mountains and forests, a stronghold protected by an enchantment!

Hearing Han Jing's order at this moment, countless soldiers immediately rode their horses and galloped.

Among them, more than 20,000 people directly completely besieged the small mountain forest, surrounded by iron barrels layer upon layer!

The remaining thousands of people, armed with torches or tinder, rushed all the way into the bamboo sea to search for and set fires.

In this way, even on the other side of the imperial capital, which was the farthest away from the academy, this night, he saw the fire rising in the direction of the academy.

After only two teas, the army of searchers seemed to have discovered something.

"My lord, a hidden cliff cave has been found on the south side of the foothills, and no matter how much oil is used to set fire to the cave, the fire cannot move forward an inch!"

Hearing this, Han Jing was overjoyed: "That's right! Although the enchantment can block and deceive the heavenly sense and sight, the enchantment can't deceive the flames!"

......

Unexpectedly, Yang Lin's army was still an expert in arson--it seemed that the entire mountain forest was burning, but in fact, they still reserved unimpeded roads.

So Han Jing, Old Man Han, Xue Qi and Zhan Fan and others quickly rushed to the south side of the foothills.

Here, as expected, there is an extremely strong barrier - regardless of the fire around it, this area seems to be blocked by mirrors, and there is not a single flame that can enter a strange circular space.

If you need a metaphor, it's like there's an upside-down glass cover, making it impossible for the surrounding fires to enter it!

Then Zhan Fan personally took action, and the enchantment collapsed!

"I can't imagine that there is really such an enchantment in the old man's academy!" Looking at the broken enchantment, Zhan Fan's anger was already monstrous.

After all, the current Yiqiē seems to have proved that many of the words that Han Jing said before are true—someone is hidden in the Imperial Academy, and even the head of the Academy, Lord Bishop, has never noticed it!

In this way, Zhan Fan is tantamount to dereliction of duty!

"The old man wants to see what kind of person is today who dares to use my Imperial Academy as a cover!"

Scolding angrily, the old guy took the lead and rushed in!

Subsequently, everyone also followed into an extremely hidden hole, and what they saw was the downward stone steps that were artificially excavated, and as they continued to go down, everyone's complexion became more and more solemn.

Because here, anyone can smell the smell of blood and decay, and even faintly hear some faint screams and wails of weakness.

Moreover, after the heavenly consciousness was dispersed, dozens of hidden sword-wielding figures had already been clearly seen by Zhan Fan and the others!

Seeing this qiē, Zhan Fan was completely furious!

In the academy, there is indeed a secret stronghold that even he, the bishop, doesn't know!

A stronghold belonging to the Assassin League.

How can this qiē make him embarrassed?

And what made him even more angry was that in the Heavenly Sense, he also saw the scenes in the depths of the stronghold, which were like hell!

......

Here, there are dozens of large and small caves, some of which are natural, and some of which were dug out by people in the later period. At the entrance of the cave, there are all cast-iron fences, and the people inside are imprisoned like animals.

Most of the people inside are dead!

And just dead!

"The Thorn Alliance sensed the fire outside and knew that there was no way to hide it here, so I killed these people just now!" Yang Yuwu looked at the hundreds of corpses in the cliff caves, and his face turned pale: "And then just before we came in, these little minions of the Thorn Alliance also killed themselves!

Also, in this sentence, he had already said with certainty that this qiē was done by the Assassin League, because there were actually dozens of other corpses around, all wearing night clothes with the badge of the Assassin League.

"October is not here!" Heavenly Sense swept over, and Han Jing's eyes were as cold as a sword: "There are other exits here!" He ordered his subordinates to kill the people imprisoned here and then asked them to commit suicide, but he escaped!"

Now that you've escaped, there's another exit here!

Hearing this, Old Man Han immediately ordered: "Search for the old man, even if this mountain is hollowed out, you must find that exit or a deeper secret room!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, hundreds of soldiers who entered here immediately rushed deeper into the depths.

At the same time, a soldier rushed here: "Report...... General, a secret room was also found under the Dan room on the east side of the academy, and dozens of children were found inside!"

Danfang, a place that was once managed by Jia Wuxian!

......

There is indeed a spacious secret room under the Dan room, and there are dozens of small spaces in this secret room, large or small.

In every space, there are more than a dozen or twenty children!

It's a pity that by the time Han Jing and the others came here, most of these children were already cold corpses.

"The youngest of them is only four years old, and the oldest is only fourteen or fifteen years old......

"They are supposed to be the children of the Assassin League, and the Assassin League is doing this to train them to become the top assassins of the Assassin League from an early age!"

"There was only one child alive in a few rooms, and the rest ...... They must have been killed by this surviving child!"

Of a dozen children, only one can survive!

This is how the Assassins were originally selected?

In the face of this qiē, looking at the scrawny but glazed children, at the corpses that were mutilated or covered with blood-colored holes, and at the murderous cold light that flashed in the eyes of some children......

Everyone, gradually, fell silent!

In the end, it was Han Jing who said softly: "Lord Bishop, my Han family wants to take away all these children, is it okay?"

Hearing this, Zhan Fan took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes: "What's next...... One qiē up to you!"

Hearing such a promise, Han Jing immediately stepped forward, looked at Yang Yuwu and said, "Uncle Yang, I want you to order the army to turn the entire academy upside down, burn it or tear it down, you must make sure that there are no more demon caves here!"

Yes, this is the Devil's Cave!

This is hell on earth!

Han Jing didn't want to see such a demon cave continue to exist, so he ...... He's going to destroy the whole academy!

And Zhan Fan immediately opened his eyes when he heard this, but he thought of something again, and finally chose to keep the promise he just said - whatever you want!

One qiē, whatever you want!
