Chapter 465: Blood in the Jar
Through the curtain, I smelled a strong stench coming to my face, and I almost vomited.
How to say it, this stench is like the smell of decay that volatilizes after the corpse has been decomposing for more than ten days, as long as you get close, it makes people feel dizzy and even suffocated.
What is going on with this Thousand Yang Dao Chief, and why does his body emit such a strange smell?
Thinking of this, I became more and more curious, and wanted to explore what the situation of this Thousand Yang Dao Elder was.
"What's the matter, Master Ding, I care about the condition of Qianyang Dao Changdi, do you want to stop it?"
I frowned and said to Master Ding dissatisfied.
"President Cheng, you misunderstood, I didn't mean that."
Ding Busan hurriedly explained: "Qianyang is suffering from a severe cold, and it is inconvenient to see people, if you are infected, then I can't afford to be responsible." ”
"Ahem......"
On the hospital bed, Daoist Qianyang coughed twice, and also said in a trembling voice: "President Cheng, thank you for your concern, and after Qianyang recovers, he will definitely go to the association to thank him in person." ”
I naturally knew that this Thousand Yang Dao Elder had openly attacked me several times, wanting to snatch the Character Less, but of course he didn't dare to show up in front of me.
I also understood that Ding Busan would not be able to let the Qianyang Daoist show up no matter what, so he smiled faintly and did not continue to insist.
"Well, in that case, let's talk after you recover."
"Qianyang Dao Chief, you take care of your illness, we won't bother too much."
With that, I turned and walked out of the room.
Ding Busan followed out, and after seeing the door closed, he took a long breath and seemed to be a lot more relaxed.
At this time, an inner disciple came over and whispered a few words to Ding Busan, Ding Busan nodded, and then walked in front of me.
"President Cheng, the dinner has been prepared, please come with me."
"Master Ding is bothered."
I arched my hand, and immediately followed behind Ding Busan, leaving the next courtyard and entering a spacious hall.
In the center of the hall, there is a large round table, on which all kinds of delicacies are already available.
There were several robed Dao Masters standing in the room, and they all looked like they should be senior elders of the Shangqing Sect.
"You may be seated."
Ding Busan waved his hand and politely beckoned us to sit down.
"Heh, Master Ding is really atmospheric, you monks also eat chicken, duck and fish?"
Looking at the table full of wine and meat, Bai Ze couldn't help but say mockingly.
"Hehe, this brother Tai smiled, our Shangqing faction is vegetarian, these chickens, ducks and fish are all bought by us in order to entertain a few people who came here."
An elder said with a smile on his face.
These so-called elders are really lying and don't make drafts, I can't help but sneer.
If I hadn't seen how those disciples of the Shangqing Sect looted the food at the foot of the mountain, I guess I would have to believe him by now.
"Thank you."
I didn't expose it in public, but said politely.
"Where is there, President Cheng is coming, we will definitely entertain it, you are welcome."
The elder said proudly.
After the wine and food were served, the dinner officially began, and Ding Busan was very enthusiastic and frequently toasted me.
The rest of the elders of the Shangqing faction were also full of honorifics, and they were full of sensual praise at me.
"It is really an honor for President Cheng to come to our Shangqing faction today to guide us."
"President Cheng is young and promising, and under your leadership, the Yin and Yang Association will definitely develop better and better!"
"We, the Shangqing faction, are proud to have such an excellent president as President Cheng!"
It seems that these so-called masters are all sycophants, and they have long been accustomed to the praise of these fleshy hemps, and they say them one by one without blushing.
I deliberately pretended to be overwhelmed, and as soon as I had a drink, I staggered and was drunk.
"No, I've drunk too much, I need to go and put some water in it."
I staggered to my feet and was about to walk out.
"President Cheng, don't go, where is this, let's have another drink."
An elder hurriedly stepped forward to stop me, still holding two full glasses of wine.
"Elder, I'll drink with you!"
Without waiting for me to speak, Bai Ze immediately stepped forward, took the elder's wine glass, drank it all, and quietly glanced at me at the same time.
Lonnie and Jing Jing also took the opportunity to toast to the other elders and Ding Busan, giving me a chance to slip out.
Brother Bai, Ni, Jingjing, it's up to you here!
I said something to myself, turned and walked out of the hall, and when I walked out of the doorway, I saw that there was no one behind me, so I couldn't help but speed up my pace and quickly walked to a corner.
At this time, the night is deep, the whole Taoist temple is empty and lonely, the sandalwood during the day has been burned out, there is no incense ash to cover, and the bloody breath during the day has become more and more intense.
I looked around to make sure that no one was there, and then followed the bloody breath along the base of the wall to the backyard, through a corridor, and around a bamboo forest, stopping in front of a stone wall.
That bloody breath came from behind the wall, and if you wanted to find the source, you had to climb over the wall.
But this is not a difficult thing for me now, the true qi in my body is running, I bent my legs and knees, and after accumulating strength, I flicked violently, and the whole person jumped over, and then climbed over the stone wall and landed on the other side.
After landing, I rolled around a few times before I quietly stood up and began to look around.
Inside the stone wall was a small courtyard, surrounded on all sides by stone walls, and there was not even a single door to enter or exit.
Directly in front of the courtyard, there was a hut, the door was closed, and faintly, I heard a burst of crying from inside.
I tiptoed to the door, and saw a brass lock hanging from the latch, and the smell of blood came from this room!
I reached out and groped in the Qiankun bag for a while, and soon took out a wire, *** There was a pounding in the keyhole, and with a click, the copper lock opened in response.
Carefully removing the brass lock, I slowly pushed open the door and walked inside.
The room was dark, I lit a fire fold, held it high, and the whole room was clearly displayed in my sight.
On the left side of the room were several large vats, which were filled with blood, and red blood was almost overflowing from them.
There were several stacks of dry firewood in the corner of the wall on the right, and under the dry firewood, more than a dozen women were hiding together, shivering.
The women, dressed in ragged clothes and thin yellow muscles, looked to be in their twenties at most, and looked at me with fear in their eyes.
I wondered in my heart, and just as I was about to take a step forward, the women screamed in fright.
"Help, don't kill us!"
