The maple forest faces the sea on one side and the mountain on the other, which is a very famous scenic spot in Yangcheng.

Thousands of acres of maple trees are planted here.

Every autumn, there will be a scene of "thousands of mountains red".

Ye Qiu and Changmei Zhenren walked in the maple forest for a while, and suddenly stopped, only to see Cao Yuan and them confronting the enemy in the open space a hundred meters ahead.

With the help of the street lamp, Ye Qiu saw the enemy's appearance clearly.

There were eight people in total.

Seven men and one woman.

"How could there be so many people?" Ye Qiu was shocked. According to Qinglong's previous guess, the enemy should only be five or six people.

The long-eyebrow real person pursed his lips and said, "Qinglong made a mistake in judgment. ”

"Do you know all those people?" Ye Qiu asked.

"Most of the awareness. Changmei Zhenren introduced: "The bald head on the far left, named Wujing, is good at Vajra Boxing, originally a disciple of Wutai Mountain, and later violated the precepts and was expelled from the mountain gate. ”

"The woman next to him who was wearing a red dress and was dressed very beautifully, named Red Lady, was good at using poison. ”

The real person with long eyebrows suddenly asked, "Ye Qiu, have you seen that pair of dwarfs?"

"See. ”

Ye Qiu had already noticed that among the group of enemies, there were two men who were very short, only about one meter tall, very ugly, and almost identical in appearance.

"Are they twins?" Ye Qiu asked.

"Yes. Changmei Zhenren said: "They are the Tan brothers of the Tan family in Xiangxi, the eldest is called Tan Mian, and the second is called Tan Guitar." ”

Puff –

Ye Qiu couldn't help but laugh and said with a smile: "These two names are so good to obtain, you can remember them after listening to them once." ”

"I heard that the Tan family's parents wanted their son to be able to eat by his hands when he grew up, but they didn't expect that these two guys now rely on their legs to eat. ”

"What do you mean?"

Changmei Zhenren explained: "The Tan brothers have been practicing martial arts since they were children, and later they worshipped an old man in the clan as a teacher and learned authentic Tan legs. ”

"Don't look at them not tall, in fact, they are nearly fifty years old, they have been practicing Tan legs for decades, and the brothers cooperate seamlessly. ”

Over the years, the two brothers have teamed up and killed many ruthless characters. ”

"If you fight against them, then you must find a way to kill one of them first, break their brother's cooperation, so that you can win, otherwise, it is very dangerous. ”

Ye Qiu nodded slightly: "I know." ”

"The withered old man standing next to the Tan brothers is the Great Elder of the Witch God Sect, Wei Leran. ”

Changmei's real person's tone became a little more solemn, and he said, "This old thing's skills are not weak, and he should be ranked in the top three in the Witch God Sect." ”

"How can I compare it to you?" Ye Qiu asked.

The long-eyebrow real person raised his chin and said disdainfully: "A waste is qualified to compare with me?"

Beep.

"By the way, I have a question. Ye Qiu said, "Why does the Witch God Sect have to go against the Dragon Gate?"

"You're a member of the Dragon Gate, and you don't even know this?"

Ye Qiu said: "I really don't know. ”

"It's actually very simple, just two reasons. Changmei Zhenren said: "The first reason is to fight for territory. The Wushen Sect wants to get involved in the Central Plains, and the Longmen wants to dominate the world, so naturally it will inevitably collide. ”

"The second reason is that Cao Yuan once swore that he would use all his life to destroy the Witch God Sect. ”

"As for the reason, it is that Cao Yuan's beloved was killed by the elders of the Witch God Sect. ”

Ye Qiu was taken aback.

He had heard the Dragon King and Zhao Yun say before that the reason why Cao Yuan was called nine thousand years old was because Cao Yuan was a eunuch.

After the death of his beloved, Cao Yuan waved his knife from the palace, showing that he loved only one person in his life.

Unexpectedly, Cao Yuan's beloved was actually killed by the elders of the Witch God Sect.

"Why did those elders of the Witch God Sect kill their beloved who was nine thousand years old?" Ye Qiu asked.

According to the timeline, when Cao Yuan's beloved died, Cao Yuan was still very young and had not created the Dragon Gate, so he should not have intersected with the Witch God Cult.

"Tell you a secret. Changmei Zhenren said mysteriously: "Cao Yuan's beloved person was the holy daughter of the Witch God Sect at that time. ”

"What!" Ye Qiu was shocked.

The nine-thousand-year-old beloved is actually a saint of the Witch God Cult?

Changmei Zhenren continued: "According to the canons of the Witch God Sect, the holy woman is not allowed to have an affair with a man, and she is not allowed to marry for the rest of her life. If you violate it, you will be lit with sky lanterns. ”

"Light the sky lantern?" Ye Qiu wondered.

It was the first time he had heard that.

Changmei is really humane: "The so-called lighting of the sky lantern is to apply some flammable materials such as grease and sulfur on the prisoner's body, and then wrap the prisoner in linen, so that the prisoner only has his head exposed. Then, the prisoner was put into the oil tank and soaked, and at night, after dark, the torturer would call the crowd to watch, and the prisoner who had been soaked in the oil tank would be fished out and hung on a very high wooden stake, and at this moment, the person was still alive. ”

Immediately afterward, the torturer would count the mistakes made by the prisoner in front of everyone, and finally set the prisoner on fire with a torch and watched the prisoner die in agony. ”

"In history, there are written records that there are only two people who were lit sky lanterns, one is Dong Zhuo in the Three Kingdoms period, and the other is Zhu Jiumei of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. ”

"Lighting a sky lantern is a very cruel punishment. ”

Moreover, when his beloved was burned to death, Cao Yuan was at the scene. ”

"The elders of the Witch God Sect punished the Holy Maiden, but let Cao Yuan go, just to make Cao Yuan suffer for the rest of his life. ”

"But the Witch God Sect never thought that letting Cao Yuan live was equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain. ”

"Over the years, Cao Yuan has not only been against the Witch God Cult, but also created the Dragon Gate, which has the posture of exterminating the Witch God Sect. ”

Ye Qiu sighed when he heard this, and sighed: "I didn't expect that nine thousand years old also had such a sad past. ”

"Everyone has a sad past to a greater or lesser extent, but the Witch God Cult really should be destroyed. Changmei Zhenren said: "The Witch God Sect acts unreasonably, kills innocents indiscriminately, and cultivates Gu art to harm people, such an organization should be completely exterminated." ”

Then, Changmei Zhenren continued to introduce Ye Qiu.

"I don't know the zombie-faced guy next to Wei Leran, and it seems that he is also a member of the Witch God Sect. ”

"The two on the edge are obvious, they are Dadong Ronin, and the specific names are unknown. ”

Ye Qiu took a closer look and found that the two Great Eastern Ronin, with messy hair, a pinch of beard under their noses, were wearing loose kimonos, clogs on their feet, and a katana hanging from their waists.

"The Witch God Cult actually colluded with the little devils, hum. ”

Ye Qiu snorted coldly, killing intent appeared in his eyes, as a Chinese, he hated the little devil from the bottom of his bones.

At this time, I saw Qinglong striding out.

Ye Qiu knew that the decisive battle was about to begin.
