Chapter 189: The Smell of Blood

The catastrophe began at the end of that autumn, for more than ten days, there was a strange fishy smell wafting in the sky, ordinary people just frowned, cursed, and the people in the rivers and lakes clearly knew that this fishy smell was a strong smell of blood, most of the people in the rivers and lakes lived a day of licking blood from the knife edge, this smell was too familiar to them.

It's just such a strong smell of blood, and it is pervasive in the sky, but it is incredible, from time to time some gossip comes from the north, what "the factions in northern Xinjiang have turned the world upside down", "there is a big devil in northern Xinjiang, he will kill people when he sees them, and countless doors will be destroyed, and he will come to the Central Plains immediately" "There is a great plague in northern Xinjiang, and the corpses are thousands of miles away, and they are starving all over the wilderness, and they are about to spread to the Central Plains."

All sorts of exaggerated or absurd rumors spread far and wide, and when I looked north, it was clear sky, but there was a dark and dense black cloud in the north, moving slowly towards this side in the far distance, like a flock of black crows, hovering there.

A great sense of uneasiness and fear hung over the hearts of the people, and all of them became distracted, and the crowd in the streets hurried to the threshold, while others leaned on the threshold, staring in amazement at the black clouds to the north, and a sense of foreboding that had never been seen before permeated the town.

Some people have already begun to stand in place and tremble, and under the corner of the street wall, there are three or two old people there telling some terrible legends in the village, which attracts the children gathered together to exclaim.

Compared with the people in the town, the rivers and lakes have begun to boil at this moment, and after the Purple Cloud Palace and Yaoshan sent out the northern frontier, they used various ways to pass on the news of the birth of the Tiger Power Evil Beast as quickly as possible.

Anger, horror, confusion, and confusion suddenly erupted, and this monster that only existed in horror legends was now in the world without warning, and some people questioned it, and many sects questioned it, and more people felt that it should be a conspiracy.

But all the words of suspicion seemed so superfluous and pale in the face of the ominous atmosphere of great horror, and the strong smell of blood that was clear in the air made the skeptics have to shut up, and the people are even more angry, frightened, dazed, and confused.

For a while, the various sects that were originally attached to Baihua and Edgeworth, as if they had grasped a life-saving straw at this moment, became more dependent on Baihua and Edgeworth, and they took it for granted that since the Tiger Power Evil Beast was summoned by the two factions of Hundred Flowers and Edgeworth, then Hundred Flowers and Edgeworth must have a way to deal with the evil beasts of the last days, and it is absolutely right to stand on the side of the Hundred Flowers and Edgeworth factions at this moment.

And the various sects that were originally wandering left and right, decided to fall to the two factions of Baihua and Edgeworth in panic, this is a tiger power evil beast, and the terrifying legends about it that have been passed down from generation to generation in the martial arts should have exaggerated elements, but even if half of these exaggerated ingredients are true, it is enough to make most of them succumb, and it is important to save their lives first!

Naturally, there are also some sects full of righteous indignation, to unite to crusade against the two factions of Baihua and Edgeworth, but there are very few such people, in addition to the sects that fall to Hundred Flowers and Edgeworth, many sects have pinned their hopes on the Xuanyu Gate on the mountains on both sides of the hinterland of the Central Plains, this thousand-year-old giant faction in the Central Plains, saving the safety of the world is not once or twice.

At present, what people regret the most is that they were instigated by the two factions of Baihua and Yujian, for the sake of a little profit, which caused the Xuanyu Gate to be divided and the power was greatly reduced, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the Xuanyu Gate should have a way, just think about what he did at the beginning, what face did he have to seek the protection of Xuanyu Gate?

Don't think about it so much, everyone advises themselves in their hearts, ants are still stealing life, in the face of this catastrophe of tiger power, survival is the most important!

And at this moment, the Xuanyu Gate does not seem to be moved by the terrifying ominous aura, it is still so majestic and orderly, "In the troubled times, the sword swings the demons, and the wind and clouds stand with their hands!" Outside the Sanqing Palace, the appearance of this huge couplet has not changed at all, and it is still hanging there quietly.

Ziyang Zhenren, the head of Xuanyu Sect, stood in front of the Taishi chair in the middle of the hall, listening carefully to Guo Benchu's words, and after a while, Guo Benchu next to him arched his hand and said: "Senior brother, the whole process is like this, now that the Tiger Power Evil Beast has been born, I'm afraid it's ...... I'm afraid I'm going to go straight to our Xuanyu Gate!"

Ziyang Zhenren slowly turned around, only to see that he was still wearing a gray-white Taoist robe as always, but at this moment, a few new white threads were added to his waist-length hair, and in just a few years, this immortal wind Dao bone righteous path giant had already shown a trace of old look.

Ziyang Zhenren seemed to be indifferent to the matter of Tiger Power, and asked softly: "That little apprentice Chen Jianping under Senior Brother Lu back then really destroyed the Yingdan magic weapon in order to save a person's life?"

Guo Benchu nodded and said, "That's right! Now that the Taiji Seal has been sensed, we'd better prepare early!"

Ziyang Zhenren didn't care, as if the tiger power evil beast that made the world desperate was not worth mentioning here, he waved his hand lightly, and said lightly: "Senior Brother Guo, you arrange according to the predetermined plan!"

Guo Benchu answered, turned around and hurried away, Ziyang Zhenren sighed, looked up at the sky outside the door of the main hall, and for a while, only to hear Ziyang Zhenren snort, and whispered to himself: "I really underestimated this kid at the beginning, Senior Brother Lu, is it really me wrong......

There is also a sense of fear of the coming of the world in the East Medicine City at this moment, but fortunately, there have been frequent chaos in the East Medicine Mountain area in recent years, and the people here have long been commonplace, and the people in the East Medicine Mountain area are very convinced of the Medicine Mountain faction, although everyone is also very afraid, but it is not as godless as other towns and places.

Early in the morning, two men and one woman rode fast horses in the town, it was Chen Jianping and the three, this Nalan Yue's appearance was too beautiful, everywhere he went, all of them attracted people's attention, the three of them patted their horses and walked on the streets of East Medicine City, which attracted people's attention, although the Yaoshan faction was very famous in East Medicine City, but Chen Jianping rarely showed up, so the people in the city did not know that the handsome young man in front of him was the head of the Yaoshan faction.

Nalan Yue immediately asked, "What should we do next?"

Chen Jianping shook his head and said: "I haven't thought about it yet, I'm waiting for a few days to see what the situation is, and the spies who are looking around for news haven't reported the information yet, so it's inconvenient to make up ideas!"

Nalan Yue smiled apologetically, and wanted to say something, Chen Jianping pursed his lips slightly, waved his hand, and said: "Butler Wuda, I'm hungry, hurry up and arrange arrangements, I haven't eaten and drunk well for more than half a month!"

Wu Datong responded smartly and urged the horse forward, only to see that he had changed into blue clothes at the moment, cut his beard short, and washed his face.

Not long after, Wu Datong rode back and took Chen Jianping and Nalan Yue into a tavern, this Wu Datong carried a money bag around his waist, he had never been so generous, and at this moment he looked like a nouveau riche, and he was rich and shouted at the bartender, asking for wine and food.

After a while, the wine and food were all together, Chen Jianping and Nalan Yue naturally had no intention of eating, Wu Datong didn't care, and he was not polite, and he picked up the wine bowl to eat and drink.

Nalan Yue sighed and said, "You say, if the people of the world knew the truth, would they hate me for not dying, and cause them to suffer from the Tiger Power Evil Beast?"

Chen Jianping fiddled with the bamboo chopsticks in his hand, smiled loudly, and said: "This will naturally happen, as long as you can protect yourself, they can't wait for you to die as scum!"

Nalan Yue pursed her lips and smiled helplessly, Chen Jianping snorted coldly and said: "It's not just that, people in the world hate you for not dying quickly when you deserve to die, I'm afraid they hate me even more for not letting you die when you deserve to die!" After speaking, Chen Jianping and Nalan Yue looked at each other and smiled.

Wu Datong looked at the two of them inexplicably, he kept drinking and eating, he was locked up in the dungeon of Juxian Hall for three years, and at this moment he finally saw the meat, and the food could be said to be ugly.

Nalan Yue looked at Wu Datong and said: "You have a good appetite, in a short time, the tiger power evil beast will be powerful, we will all have to die, and I am afraid that by then I will no longer be able to eat meat and drink wine!"

Wu Datong was slightly stunned, didn't say a word, and yelled after a while: "Bartender, another jar of wine, beef and mutton, hurry up!"

As he spoke, he turned around and said to Nalan Yue: "Then I'll eat enough today, so as not to regret eating less when I get there!"

Nalan Yue shrugged helplessly at Chen Jianping, Chen Jianping smiled slightly, and was quite envious of Wu Datong's open-mindedness, this person's martial arts are ordinary, and he is even more timid as a mouse, but he is free, he can eat when he wants, drink when he wants, be afraid when he should be afraid, and say out loud what he wants, although it seems absurd and funny, how many people in the rivers and lakes can do him like this?

Thinking of this, he sighed, took a bowl of wine and drank it all, and said, "Let's eat quickly, and after eating, follow me to meet someone!"
