Chapter 317: Persecution
The food in the pot was quickly snatched up, and the fire under the stove was completely opened, and the food buried in it was found. But most of the people at the scene still didn't eat, and the people who ate didn't eat enough.
When the food was exhausted, they stood in place, looking at the scene around them with red eyes.
"Ahhh
Within a radius of 100 meters, there were wails everywhere, and a figure lay on the ground, all curled up and twitching. Others lay on the ground, no longer silent, trampled to death by the crowd.
There were even corpses lying on the fire, being grilled, emitting the aroma of meat, causing the living people around to swallow their saliva.
"Eat, eat......" someone muttered with dull eyes and trembling fingers.
Although the miserable situation made their hairs stand on end, the hunger in their stomachs scorched their stomachs like charcoal fire, and made them extremely painful. The little food that I was lucky enough to grab not only did not quench the hunger, but was more like water poured into a pan of oil, causing the hunger to boil.
"I'm going to eat. "Someone stood up and stumbled through the crowd to find something to eat, but found nothing.
The corpse was still roasting in the fire, and no one stepped forward to remove it, all for fear that they would not be able to bear it.
"Master!" Finally, Yu Dao and the old monk, who were quietly staying on the side, were discovered by them.
The mortals staggered and swarmed up, encircling the two of them closely.
"Abbot!" ......
Yu Dao raised his eyes and squinted at the mortals around him. These people all had hideous faces, no different from the evil ghosts on the murals in the ruined temple, and their eyes were bloodshot with a crazy color.
"Master, master, go out and get something to eat again!"
"Abbot, I'm hungry!" ...... The sounds of crying and pleading are all around, which is moving.
But Yu Dao stood calmly, his face did not change in the slightest, and the old monk beside him just read the scriptures silently, without pausing a word.
"Master, have mercy on us!"
"We want a bite, we want a bite. Seeing that the old monk did not move, one after another knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the old monk.
Someone sobbed, knelt on the ground and crawled towards the old monk, crying: "Abbot, you watched me grow up, I am hungry, I want to eat!"
But the old monk still read the scriptures silently, and his face did not change.
Gradually, more than 1,000 people around knelt on the ground, black and oppressive, kowtowing to the old monk.
"Master help! Master help!" The shouts resounded all over the mountain, but they did not alarm the birds and beasts, which had already been eaten up and driven away.
Yu Dao stood beside the old monk and watched this scene with amusement in his eyes.
He could clearly see that the madness in the eyes of the mortals around him was getting stronger and stronger, and it was becoming ferocious, if the old monk didn't agree again, the mortals would have to do it.
A sigh sounded, shocking the bodies of more than a thousand mortals, the shouts in their mouths stopped, and the madness in their eyes also stopped temporarily.
"Poof!" But the old monk's body suddenly bent and coughed up a mouthful of black blood, "Ahem, ahem!" He held the wooden rosary and couldn't read it anymore.
"Master mercy, master help!"
The shouts sounded again, and more than a thousand mortals bowed to the old monk, begging the old monk to get something to eat again.
Yu Dao stared at the old monk's movements, and there was surprise in his eyes.
Yu Daoruo's guess was right, at that moment just now, the old monk wanted to use mana to drive away the ferocity in the hearts of mortals, but as soon as the old monk mobilized his mana, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
This old monk, like Yu Dao, was seriously injured.
Strictly speaking, the injuries in the old monk's body were much more serious than those in Yu Dao. After all, Yu Dao Xiu has an immortal heart, and his foundation is solid, so he can recover without the need for medicine or anything like that, and at most he needs to recuperate for a few days with peace of mind.
A look flashed in Yu Dao's eyes, and he raised his eyes to look at the iron pot that had already been overturned in the field.
"In this way, the food that those mortals ate just now was added to it. ”
Thinking about it, Yu Dao mobilized the small amount of mana in his body and blessed it on his nose. As soon as he was blessed, he smelled the residual aroma of rice around him, and his heart beat slightly.
Sure enough, as he expected, the things brought back by the old monk were filled with medicine, and there was no need to eat them, as long as they were boiled, they could release the fragrance and cause people to go crazy.
No wonder the scene just now was so unbearable, competing with each other, more beasts than beasts.
Staring at the old monk, Yu Dao was suspicious in his heart, and he couldn't decide if the medicine in the food was given by the old monk.
Before Yu Dao thought too much, the mortals around him couldn't bear it anymore.
"Master, if you don't agree, don't blame us for being rude!" someone suddenly got up and stared at the old monk.
One by one, they got up from the ground, staring at the old monk and Yu Dao with unkind eyes. Especially when they saw Yu Dao's fine skin and tender meat, the fierceness and madness in their eyes were magnified again.
"Arrest them, arrest them, and force them to find out where the food is hidden!" the people were so bold that more than a thousand people were crazy in their eyes and pressed towards the two of them.
Yu Dao saw their gaze, and a cold look appeared on his face. Although he was in a state of serious injury at this time, it was not something that these mortals could deceive. Without using mana, he could kill more than half of the mortals in the field with just the power of his physical body, not to mention that he also had a natal corpse weapon.
With a cold snort, Yu Dao stepped out lightly, preparing to kill the mortal in front of him.
"Delusion......" sighed beside him again.
"That's it. The old monk opened his eyes and looked at the mortals around him with a cloudy gaze, "Donor, please spare their lives." ”
Yu Dao's brows condensed slightly, but he still stopped for the time being.
Saying that, Yu Dao's movements stopped, but the mortals around him did not stop, and just as they were about to rush forward, the old monk stood up tremblingly, and said in an old voice: "The poor monk will go down the mountain again and change some food." ”
Hearing the old monk's words, the madness in the eyes of the mortals around him lessened, and he sobered up slightly.
"Thank you, Master!" they all cried out in ecstasy, "Abbot has mercy!"
One by one, they lay on the ground again, kowtowing to the old monk non-stop, and the hideous madness on their faces suddenly disappeared.
The old monk didn't look at these people too much, he made a Buddhist salute to Yu Dao, and then staggered down the mountain.
After most of the hour, when the mortals around him were restless again, the old monk walked back with a large bag on his back.
Yu Dao's nose moved slightly, and he seemed to smell the slightest smell of blood, which was still fresh......
