There is no other way in the Three Realms, and everything is created by idealism.

In the year 1398 of the Qingguo calendar, two years after the beginning of the ten-year Civil War, there was a villain.

This person was originally the captain of the city guard army of a small city in the south of the Red Flame City of Qingguo, and in the winter of 1396 of the Qingguo calendar, the southern barbarian invasion began, and this small city bore the brunt.

The city lord died on the spot, and the rest of the people defended the city, confronting the Nanban Red Flame Dragoon Vanguard Army, and they did not surrender.

It was not until the army of Qing Wannian, who was still the prince at the time, temporarily retreated to the Nanban that the city was rescued.

At this time, there were more than 1,200 people in the city, but after being besieged for seven months, only 278 remnants remained, and the rest of the city's men, women, and children were nowhere to be found.

The battle report said: The people of the whole city, with the same hatred of the enemy, put on armor and led the troops, rushed out of the city, and died with the enemy.

In fact, as long as you have been on the battlefield and know what it means to fight, you can see that this battle report is not very detailed, the Red Flame Dragoon has the highest mobility ability in the three continents, if the people of the whole city rush out of the city with foot soldiers, the other party only needs a charge, it is enough to break through the city.

But anyone who can fight will not come up with such a bad idea, not to mention that this city is located is the gateway to the Southern Barbarians, and there are no weak soldiers under the strong generals, so there will be no such fools to lead the army.

So where did the people of the city go?

No one is looking into it. This is a forbidden area, if you dare to touch it, then the remaining 278 people, are they heroes?

It is in this context that the captain has completed his transformation.

After he and more than 200 colleagues were rescued, some continued to join the army because of national hatred and family hatred, and some were like this captain, who suffered some mental damage and came down from the battlefield, and were already homeless, and a group of poor people were sent to the capital of Qingguo, which is now Cheongju City.

After half a year of peaceful life, the captain gathered a few old fellows and gathered some idlers.

He claimed to have seen hell.

These people formed a group, calling themselves the "Truth-seeking Sect", the captain of which was the leader of the sect, and the doctrine was revised several times to open the eyes to the world, purify and break the falsehood.

The religion of seeking truth has developed rapidly, and the fertile soil in which belief is most likely to take root and sprout is the years of life and death during the war years, when people could not see hope in their hearts, so they turned to the gods.

The emergence of the Truth-seeking Sect caters to this trend, and in just a few years, the Truth-seeking Sect has developed into the largest sect in Qingguo.

In those years, anyone who was a Qingguo person would recite a few words of the teachings of the Truth-seeking Sect: If the heart is in hell, the world is hell, and if I have hell in my heart, my body is a hell cage. I would like to bury my body in hell to keep peace on earth.

Then there is the burning that comes with the doctrine, burning one's own flesh and blood.

So the Truth-seeking Sect began the path of cult.

First, the sect leader and a group of Dharma kings ate human flesh raw, and after the sect members discovered the secret, they tried to kill it, and then the beliefs of those sect members broke down, and they simply reported it to the official family together.

After the matter was revealed, Qingguo began to put forward a request for internal supervision of the Seeking Truth Sect, and assigned the general of the town army at that time to bring his sergeants to the Seeking Truth Sect to meet the sect leader.

However, the sect leader sought the truth, and the mad captain who came down from the battlefield at the beginning already had supernatural powers.

The general and more than 30 sergeants under his command, somehow confused their minds, turned back to the court that day, in front of the Qinghuang, everyone watched, and suddenly the whole body burst into flames.

Dozens of people felt no pain, but shouted in the flames: "Now I have hell in my heart, bury my body to keep peace."

The whole country was shaken, and when Qingguo faced the invasion of the Southern Barbarians, he began to purge the truth-seeking sect members in the country.

After all, the Truth-Seeking Sect is a folk sect, relying only on word of mouth and the divine power of the sect leader, and when the official channels of public opinion began to participate, all kinds of books, teas, and taverns began to have storytellers to give lectures on cult activities, and the scourge was fierce. Basically, the Truth-seeking Sect is completely unable to return to the front stage except for hiding among the people and waiting for an opportunity.

But even so, the Truth-seeking Sect still caught the mystery with the imperial court for several years, until the bad news came from the north, the White Frost Country sent troops, and the White Devil Soldiers took advantage of the domestic and foreign troubles in the Qing Dynasty to appear north of the White Devil City in the north.

So far, there are many troubles at home and abroad.

In the spring of 1404, the Red Flame City in the south was broken, and the White Devil City in the north was broken in the autumn, and in the spring of 1405, the armies of the two countries pressed the border and launched a one-year war of annihilation in Qingzhou City, the last capital of Qingguo.

In the spring of the following year, when the flowers were in full bloom, the Seeking Truth Sect and 3,000 members of the sect rebelled in Qingzhou City.

Suddenly, there was thunder rolling in the sky, and some immortals rode down from Yulong Mountain, crossing four hundred miles with a single sword, and the three thousand members of the Truth-seeking Sect were killed and wounded, and the white devil soldiers turned into powder, and the Red Flame Dragon Rider did not survive a hundred.

This marked the end of the ten-year war. The Nanban retreated and signed a peace treaty, and the white frost compensated countless gold and silver treasures to the south.

And the Truth-seeking Sect, overnight, changed its name to "Seeking Immortals".

After that, in the long years, there were constantly Immortal Sect henchmen who were captured, and they all had a distinctive feature, that is, cannibalism.

They believed that in the process of cannibalism, they could communicate with the spirits of heaven and earth, and then gradually change their minds and bodies, so as to gain power beyond the human world.

Every member of the Immortal Sect who was caught was the result of dying without a place to be buried, and the mass graves outside the city did not know how many times they were thrown in, and many died under the knives of officials, the guns and sticks of soldiers, and even the stones of the people.

However, these people just can't be killed.

Li Hongyi once arrested several sect members, and he was disgusted with the other party's doctrine of cannibalism, disgusted with the other party's attitude of righteously saving the common people when talking about cannibalism, and even more disgusted with these people's persistence in going forward and succeeding each other and never dying.

He clearly remembered that at that time, he was only in his early twenties, and at the age of his blood, he grabbed the usually kind and kind teacher and turned out the severed thighs, arms and other human body parts in the cellar of his house.

Seeing this ogre smiled easily and said to him: "Do you know, human flesh is a gift from heaven, all the secrets and power of living beings are contained in human flesh, when you have eaten a few times, felt the wonderful happiness, and seen the true meaning of all things in heaven and earth, you will understand that the best food in the world is all around us." ”

For the first time in his life, Li Hongyi stabbed a long knife into the chest of an unarmed sinner who was easily captured.

It was even the first time in his life that he had killed someone.

That's why the memory is so deep, and the memory is so painful.

Cannibalism, cannibalism!

I'm going to eat people~

Li Hongyi covered his face with his hands, leaned under the pomegranate tree, and cried out in a whimper.

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place.

"Why is this happening, why am I suffering such a fate, why is no one coming to my aid? why?"

"Uncle Yi died so desolately, I can't even afford a minimum funeral!

"Why did the high-ranking parents and officials of the government press me to the countryside and fields to be a guardian, but no one spoke for me, why?"

"Why did I go through life and death, and I caught the fox demon in my life, but no one praised me for being a good man and serving the country and the people?

Why did I go so hard that in the end I only threw a waist card at me, and even a soldier standing guard could smash my head full of blood, why?"

"That's why, why I've always been alone! Why didn't anyone come to help me!"

His sanity began to gradually go to extremes, and he began to feel that this world was unfair to him, and this world was not worth it!

However, in the moment when he didn't realize it, a voice that he had forgotten for a long time flashed through his mind, and then finally disappeared completely.

"Open your eyes and see, the world is full of beauty, and the useful body is just a prison!"

Then the god catcher woke up from his madness, he still felt sorry for himself, but he was no longer sinking into darkness, and suddenly suddenly turned his mind around and returned to the right path.

"Why, why am I always alone, no, no, no, yes, yes, I, I'm a person, yes!

I'm a person, and I think I'm a hero!

I'm a catcher, and I make a living chasing sin!

I am a god hunter, and I make my life with justice and justice!"

"How can I eat people, how can I eat people!"

The god of the catcher hissed in his heart, like a mad beast.

He wept so sadly that the children forgot to play, and looked at him with a smile, and one of the older ones, seeing that the man was so pitiful, ran to him, and spread out his hands and said to him, "Don't cry, for this is for you."

It was a pomegranate that was half green and not yellow.

Li Hongyi's heart was full of grief and sorrow, and he took the pomegranate tremblingly, and when he was at his weakest and helpless, it turned out to be an ignorant child.

He wiped tears from his face and tried to reach out to hug the child, the first light he had seen in the depths of hell.

This is his salvation and his hope.

Then, he saw his outstretched hand, and there was a faint black gas on his fingertips.

He screamed, pulled his hands into his arms, and shouted to the group of children, "Go, go, go." ”

The group of children were so frightened and dazed that he stumbled around everyone, clasped his hands, bent slightly, and rushed out quickly.

"Don't do this, don't do this, stop, stop. ”

He constantly exerted his mental power in his heart, suppressing all his mental power against the power in his body. Then I watched as the wisp of black faded into my fingertips and finally disappeared.

Feel the fluctuations of the churning and spreading of the position of the heart. Li Hongyi showed the expression of the rest of his life after the catastrophe: "It's so dangerous, it's so dangerous, I almost can't suppress it"

Originally, it had taken him several days, but this power had gradually been mastered by him, and the influence of the fox demon had gradually approached nothing, and those swirling black qi had never appeared in front of people again.

As long as his mind moved, the black filament rushed straight out, and then the mind was withdrawn, and the black filament seemed to not exist, at least on the outside, there was no trace of it.

But today is very different, the churning power is mixed with a sense of madness, different from the fox demon's coldness mixed with a little madness.

This force is completely in the shape of a madman, and when the mind is slightly separated, it bursts out, revealing the outside of the body, and the black silk thread hangs around the fingers.

Li Hongyi probably guessed, he thought of the mass dug out of Niu Er's body, if it was the soul, then everything was very clear.

Obviously, he is now a soul-eating monster, and this power in his body will change his character with the soul he eats.

The personality of the soul during his lifetime will affect the degree to which he can control his power. And the frequency with which he uses these powers is a process of digesting the personality in it, and after a few more days, this overwhelming urge will slowly disappear, and then it will be like an arm again.

It suddenly occurred to him that in this way, the fox demon might not be the original host of this power?

Maybe one day when he dies somewhere, and then someone will inherit this power?

Maybe at that time, I was in that person's body, struggling to fight every day, and then watching myself being digested little by little?

Li Hongyi shivered all over his body, such a future was really terrifying, and his eyes became firm again.

"I will never die like that, all those who want to put me to death are my enemies, since they are destined to be enemies, there is no such thing as a woman's kindness, I am not eating people, I just want to live, I just want to live well. ”

Li Hongyi thought so in his heart. Try to convince yourself.

Even if you eat all the evils in the world, it will not harm the good and innocent in the world.
