Chapter 48: The Secret of the Basement
"Is this blood, right? Or is it some kind of liquid that looks like blood?" asked Twilight sluggishly.
Several people didn't answer his words, they didn't need to answer at all, they were all people who had seen bloody scenes, the smell of blood was very familiar to them, from the moment they opened this door, there was a strong smell of blood from the opposite side, obviously this scene in front of them was blood.
Or it is more appropriate to describe it as a pool of blood, there is a huge pool in the center of a huge basement, and there is a lot of blood flowing in it, and it is all human blood, and the scene looks particularly terrifying.
Yezhou gasped and didn't speak, and after a while, there was a sound outside, and Yezhou was startled, and hurriedly pulled Lan Xia and the others to hide in the corner.
Nightboat peered through the cracks, and then saw the door open and two figures entered.
Although I couldn't see their faces clearly, I remembered the costume.
Yuan Xiong and Hu Ying?
"The boundary seal of the source vine side is about to be prepared, and then our target will start to be placed on the bodies of other forces, the closest to us is a good choice, I heard that it has not been peaceful there recently, just when we attack, and when you take the side of the fusion and balance, your status will be higher, and it won't be long before the eight directions of the mixed realm will fall into your hands." ”
Hu Ying's voice came, and everyone present was shocked when they heard this, they didn't expect that this Hu Ying's goal would be so big, and he planned to take the entire Bafang Mixed Realm into his hands? This was clearly an attempt to rebel! Do they want to betray Tiandu?
Yuan Xiong, who was opposite, also had a slight sinking face when he heard this.
"Is it necessary to do this? I just want to make Gento no Fang more stable and strong, I don't want to control the entire Eight Directions. ”
Hu Ying frowned: "What? Are you planning to retreat at this time? Yuan Xiong, don't forget that it was you who begged me to help you in the beginning, I have been giving you advice for the sake of your ambition, and even dedicated the boundary seal to you, and now that you have a soft temperament, you plan to invalidate all my hard work all along?"
"You didn't tell me at that time that the price of the boundary seal was to let so many people die! I am the master of the source vine side! These people are my people, they love me and trust me, but I used the method of recruiting strong men to capture them here and kill them, so I am still qualified to be the city lord of the source vine side?"
Yuan Xiong gradually became excited, he is not a bad person in his bones, on the contrary, at first, he was really dedicated to the source of the vine, but for some reason things became like this, one wrong step and one wrong step, and now he can't turn back.
Hu Ying naturally saw the other party's worry and weakness, and the ridicule on her face became more and more intense.
"You should know that you are not qualified to bargain with me, and don't forget that your daughter is still waiting for me to save her life, and if you don't do what I want, you know best how much that girl will suffer. ”
Hu Ying's words made Yuan Xiong quiet down at once, and the other party was very clear about Yuan Xiong's weaknesses.
Seeing that Yuan Xiong hung his head and didn't speak, Hu Ying continued to sneer: "Why do you always have to go against me? What I am doing now is also good for you, since it is a win-win situation, it is better to cooperate well, you can get power, and I can complete my task, I will leave when my task is completed, and I will make your daughter a really healthy person, no matter how you look at it, you have nothing to lose." ”
Hu Ying continued to coax, the four words of soft and hard are very suitable for dealing with Yuan Xiong, and sure enough, Yuan Xiong gradually quieted down after hearing this, and after hesitating for a long time, he spoke.
"How many people will have to be sacrificed next?"
Hu Ying smiled lightly: "The boundary seal of the Source Vine Fang has been completed, there is no need to kill people for the time being, just wait for us to take down the Fang of Melting and Balance and then continue to pick people from there, I will handle these things for you, you don't have to worry about anything." ”
Saying that, Hu Ying looked at the huge pool of blood in front of her, and the expression on her face gradually became excited.
"You see, this is the result of our persistence for five whole years, people's soul power is the power of transformation from heaven and earth, and all the breath of life is the source of soul power, and I did the opposite, using corpses and blood to create death qi, covering up the breath of life, so that the conversion of soul power is cut off, resulting in people not being able to use soul power. ”
"Such a huge project can only be done by us, as long as we master the boundary seal, in the future, even if it is the entire Tiandu, no one will be our opponent, the current Tiandu is not like a thousand years ago, today's people are too dependent on soul power, without soul power, they are just a group of waste ants, a finger can crush them, then we will be the peak of the world. ”
"Yuan Xiong, don't you want to see such a grand scene? Don't you want to stand on the top and look up at everyone?"
Listening to Hu Ying's gradually crazy words, Yuan Xiong did not answer, maybe he did yearn for such a grand scene at the beginning, but seeing his people die tragically one by one, and even the bones could not be left, he began to waver.
For five years, he couldn't sleep peacefully every night, as long as he closed his eyes, thousands of unjust souls would come to him, he was really tired, but things had come to this point, and he couldn't turn back.
The two of them didn't stay in the basement for long, and only after they had completely left did the night boat and the others slowly walk out.
Several people did not speak, but their faces turned black in unison.
"It turns out that this pool is filled with the blood of those who have been taken away...... How could they be so cruel? There are still many old and weak women and children waiting for their families to return, but they never think that those people are already dead, or even have no bones left. ”
Twilight was a little difficult to accept, he was still young, he had never experienced such a thing, and now that the facts were in front of him, he couldn't slow down.
Lan Xia looked at the night boat: "We have to find a way to stop them, otherwise the dead people will not only be the source vine square, their next target is the Fang of Melting Balance, and then the entire eight directions will become a dead land." ”
Yezhou frowned, of course she wanted to stop Hu Ying and Yuan Xiong, this day was established by Lu Dui, and she personally beat it, she would never allow anyone to destroy the heavenly capital.
"I think we're going to kill that Hu Ying now! The original city lord seems to be saved, but he must have been bewitched by that woman! As long as that woman dies, Bafang will be safe!" Gu Nanci said viciously.
Yezhou shook his head: "It's not that easy, the soul power of a few of us hasn't recovered yet, and even the people of the City Lord's Mansion can't deal with it, so how can we deal with Hu Ying?" Although I haven't seen Hu Ying make a move, I can feel the danger of that person, her strength is much more terrifying than we imagined, maybe even if our soul power recovers, we are not her opponent, and now we are just killing ourselves to find her." ”
"What then? Are we just going to watch like this?"
Yezhou clenched his teeth, his eyes flashed, and he turned his head to look at Gu Nanci: "You are right just now, the original city lord can still be saved, if we only rely on our own strength to kill Hu Ying, if we can make the entire city lord's mansion stand on our side, maybe there will be hope." ”
"But how can we convince the original city lord?"
"Through Yuan Ye, the original city lord cares most about his daughter, the reason why he has been controlled by Hu Ying is also because Yuan Ye's illness depends on Hu Ying, if I can help Yuan Ye recover his health, the original city lord's weakness will be gone. ”
Lan Xia was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and asked, "But your healing soul crystal can't be used, how can you treat the original leaf?" Her illness is not simple, and the entire pharmacist of the source vine prescription is powerless. ”
"I'm going to give it a try anyway, even if I don't have a healing soul crystal, I can still refine the potion, maybe it's really effective. ”
