Section 400 Whereabouts and Intentions

Looking at the few pregnant women who were cramped and uneasy, and looked very cringe, Shi Yi knew that they were very afraid of their identity as monks.

After all, there are also shameless people like Wang Sinian who use women as the furnace among the monks.

Shi Yi tried his best to show his kind side, and said very gently to the women in front of him:

"You can rest assured that I will not do anything to you.

All you need to do is stay with me for a while, after which I will give you a settling-in allowance and promise to send you out of Shun to the surrounding countries.

There you may be able to start a new life. ”

The women were a little excited, and some of them even wept.

None of them doubted Shi Yi's promise, they knew that they were just mortals, and even if the other party did not make such a promise as a monk, they could only stay here obediently.

Besides, it was difficult for them to leave the Shun Kingdom, but for the monks, it was just a gesture, and there was no need for the other party to deceive them.

After the women calmed down, Shi Yi asked directly:

"Okay, I've got some things to ask you. I wonder if the Smoke Pie, other than you, has detained anyone else from the underground market. ”

"Well, yes. There are also a number of sisters who are still under the control of the Smoke Sect and do not appear on the list for sale.

It's only because the Yanxiao Sect still needs them to have children that they have no plans to sell them.

Several of us were sold by the Yanxiao faction because we were a little older. One of the women replied boldly to Shi Yi.

This woman's answer, Shi Yi, had already guessed that the Yanxiao Sect would naturally leave a large number of women as breeding tools when they kept mortals in captivity, which was obvious.

However, it was clear that the fire borer was not present among those women.

The speed at which a borer kills a mortal host is very fast, especially after the death of the host who planted the borer in the first generation, the host who is reincarnated again will basically be sucked to death by the borer in ten days and half a month.

In this case, the borer host has no chance of adulthood at all, and the person can only be a newborn baby.

Thinking of this, Shi Yi then asked:

"On top of that, I wonder if there are any recently born babies who have also been directly intercepted by the Smoke Pie. ”

"That's really a lot, many sisters I know have recently been taken away by the Yanxiao Sect after giving birth to a child. Hearing Shi Yi's question, another woman replied.

"Do you know why the Smoke Sect is doing this? Shi Yi asked anxiously when he heard this.

Shi Yi had discovered a phenomenon in the underground market before, where the proportion of babies sold was much lower than that of adults.

Normally, babies take a lot of time to raise and be useful, and they are far less valuable than adults.

Why did the Yanxiao faction only leave a large number of babies in their hands, did they really plan to raise them for ten or eight years before selling them, this reason is really not credible.

"In fact, the reason why the Yanxiao Sect did this was mainly because of the sword provocation ceremony.

The sword provocation ceremony is held once a year, and a large number of mortals are killed every year.

We women are still of some use, and naturally we are not on the list of slaughter, and most of the slaughter is men and the old and weak.

Year after year, so that there is no hope in sight.

Since sooner or later they will be killed, in desperation, some people begin to rebel against the Smoke Sect.

This rebellion naturally does not refer to a head-on conflict with the monks, as a mortal, it is clear to everyone how many catties and taels they have.

Although it is not the opponent of the monk, everyone can still do it if they want to destroy the sword provocation ceremony.

After that, anyone who was selected to participate in the sword provocation ceremony would choose to commit suicide directly during the sword provocation ceremony, and would not make a wedding dress for the Yanxiao faction when they died.

The sword provocation ceremony of the Yanxiao Sect in the previous two years was destroyed in this way.

The Yanxiao faction was also very troubled by this for a while, and in order to ensure that this year's sword provocation ceremony could be held smoothly, the Yanxiao faction planned to replace adults with some babies.

Now there are only a few days left in the sword provocation ceremony, which is why the Yanxiao faction will intercept the baby so aggressively. One of the women explained to Shi Yi.

Shi Yi heard the words and knew that the sword provocation ceremony in the past few years still had such an inside story.

The Yanxiao Sect does not leave these mortals with a way to live, since they will die no matter what, these mortals naturally want to disgust the Yanxiao Sect before they die.

Now that the situation has become clear, the Yanxiao faction intends to replace adults with a large number of babies at this year's sword provocation ceremony to ensure the smooth holding of the sword provocation ceremony.

And Shi Yi inquired about this year's sword provocation ceremony, and there are still three days to go.

Judging from the current situation, there is a very high probability that the host of the fire attribute borer will appear in the Sword Provocation Ceremony.

Now Shi Yi must find a way to blend into the sword provocation ceremony and bring out the host of the fire attribute borer safely.

If Shi Yi didn't take action, the borer host would die directly on the sword provocation ceremony.

There are a large number of mortals in captivity of the Yanxiao Sect here, even if the moth host dies in the sword provocation ceremony, he will not have a chance to fly to other places, but will continue to return to the captive place of the Yanxiao Sect nearby.

In the case that the Yanxiao Sect was interested in using babies as the main sacrifice of the sword provocation ceremony, it was difficult for Shi Yi to buy a borer host.

This means that if Shi Yi can't seize the opportunity of this sword provocation ceremony, he will bring out the borer host.

Then it is likely that it will not be until next year's sword provocation ceremony that there will be such an opportunity.

In addition, one year is enough time for the borer to kill the host nine times, and then completely precipitate.

Even if Shi Yi has this patience, it will add a lot of variables.

In short, procrastination is highly undesirable.

Since the sword provocation ceremony has become the only way to obtain fire attribute borers, then Shi Yi can only fight.

After settling the five women, Shi Yi quietly waited for the sword provocation ceremony three days later while making preparations in advance.

............

Time flies, and in a short period of three days, Shi Yi set off directly to the venue of the Yanxiao Sect's Sword Provocation Ceremony after making full preparations.

This location is located deep underground in the Smoke City, and the Smoke Sect has deliberately carved out a large area deep underground for the purpose of holding the sword provocation ceremony.

When Shi Yi arrived, a large number of monks had gathered in the vicinity.

After all, the sword provocation ceremony is an annual event of the Yanxiao faction, and it is normal for someone to come to watch the ceremony.

However, Shi Yi still heard the whispers of some monks with his amazing hearing, and felt that most of the people here should have come with the mentality of watching the excitement.

After all, the mass suicide of mortals has already caused the Yanxiao Sect's sword provocation ceremony to fail for two consecutive sessions......
