Chapter 98: The Strange Case of Li Tang
After leaving Boryeong, the blood did not stay. Instead, they flew towards the place of the Shura Temple. It used to take five or six days to walk, but the blood came in one day.
He did not go directly into the mountain, but stopped at a town at the foot of the mountain. After getting off the red ice, Xueyi walked to the city, and the gate of the city was written 'Li Tang'. Presumably this is Li Tangcheng.
This person's dress is more belonging to the Tufan tribe, Tufan has the blood of Western barbarians, and they are not very popular in Jingguo, so they generally live in the form of tribes by themselves, and intermarry and trade with each other. Since Jingyan unified Jingguo, Mao Kai, the general at that time, led his troops to the west and included the entire Jingzhou in the territory of Jingguo.
In addition, Jing Yashi, the king of Xiliang, also pacified Xiliang with his own cronies. Later, due to the expansion of too much and neglected management, Jing Yan ordered it to stop expanding, and Jingguo is now Jingguo.
At that time, when Mao Kaixi was on the expedition, it was like a bamboo, and it swept away. It is worthy of the prestige of the 'God of War'. This Litang City was a small tribe in the western part of Jingzhou at the beginning. The place of residence of the Tufan people. Later, after it became the territory of Jingguo, there were special people who came to build the city, forming today's 'Li Tang'.
After entering the city, the people who found this place had dark skin and two distinct red circles on their faces. It is rare for outsiders to come here, and even the resident officials sent by the imperial court will try their best to get through the relationship and want to leave after staying for a few days.
Suddenly, seeing the arrival of the young man Xueyi, those people all looked at Xueyi with strange looks. It made Xueyi very uncomfortable in his heart, ignoring the eyes of others, and went into the city to find an inn.
This inn is called 'Ke Yue Lai' is an inn restaurant opened here by the Central Plains people, and after the blood enters the door, I only see the shopkeeper taking a boring nap in the counter. The only shopkeeper is also fighting flies.
The arrival of Blood One made Xiao Er's eyes light up, and he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"Guest officer, are you going to stay in the hotel? We have good rooms and first-class drinks!" said Xiao Er enthusiastically.
"Arrange an upper room for me, and prepare a pot of good wine and a few side dishes!" said Xueyi, gently stroking Chi Bing's hair.
"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute!" the shopkeeper ran away.
It didn't take long for a few plates of stir-fried dishes to be served, all of which were very local flavors. After eating a few bites of blood, I felt pretty good.
"Little Er, I want to ask you a few things!" said Xueyi.
"Okay, objectively, you say!" Xiao Er ran over positively. It seems that no one has spoken for a long time, and I am panicking.
"This Li Tangcheng, have any outsiders come recently?"
"Yes, guest officer!"
"Oh, then do you know about the Divine Mountain of Gnie?" asked Xueyi.
According to legend, a famous monk once praised the sacred mountain of Genie as a special holy place for pure meditation. Therefore, many people come here. It's just that there have been fewer recently. Xiao Er said with some loss, because there were fewer people coming, so there were few people in this inn to take care of.
"Why is this? so suddenly?" Xueyi was a little curious, if it was really a sacred mountain, there must be many people who admired it.
"I don't know exactly what the situation is, and I haven't been to the mountain, but according to insiders, the mountain is haunted!" Xiao Er said in a low voice. This mountain is a sacred mountain in the area, and the people treat it like a god. If someone hears about slandering Mount Kinabalu, I'm afraid that this small shop will be burned down.
As soon as he became more and more curious, he hurriedly ate his food and drinks, and then left the inn. Get ready to check it out.
The town of Litang is located at the foot of the sacred mountain of Gnie, which is towering into the sky and covered with snow all year round. The snow was white and the wind was fierce. In addition, it is early spring, and the climate is already cold, and the cold on the mountain is getting more and more pressing.
After leaving the city, Xueyi walked up the hill and did not ride the red ice. Rather, I want to feel the beauty of nature. I took out the map and looked at the location of the Abyss Valley in the information. And he got up and went forward.
It didn't take long for the sky to change dramatically. The sky was covered with goose feather snow, mixed with a cold wind. The power of the vast heaven and earth, even the highest level of cultivation will bow their heads in front of it. In the end, it was difficult for the blood one to advance through the blizzard. The footwork is masterful, and the energy in the body gushes vigorously, forming a light mask with a diameter of half a foot. Wind and snow are difficult to invade.
After walking between the white sky and the earth for nearly half an hour, I found a naturally formed cave on the edge of a cliff, and I was overjoyed. One dodged and hid in.
After entering, Xueyi found that the cave was really not small, and when he went inside, he found that there were still a few elk hiding from the wind and snow, and a few snow wolves. When I saw outsiders coming, I didn't take care of it and continued to nap.
The blood was amazing, and the jackals and elks were in the same room, and they didn't even fight each other. It can be seen how wonderful the truth that exists between nothingness in nature is.
It wasn't long before he heard a rustling sound outside, followed by several people swearing and talking. Bloody One hid his breath, sticking to a shadow on the roof of the cave like a gecko.
Then there were four people in the cave, all dressed in black, each wearing heavy makeup and tattoos. You don't need to look at the specific embroidery on their clothes to know that they are from the Shura Temple.
"Big brother, wouldn't it be bad for us to leave without permission?" said one of the men, cringe.
"What do you say? Leaving without permission is an apostasy, and seeing you again in the future is a traitor to the same sect, and anyone who is in the same sect is qualified to clean up the portal, do you say?" the leader was tall and said unceremoniously.
"What then!" said the thin man.
"Kill, kill, kill, the demons retreat! Kill, kill, kill!" suddenly the man who was guarded by several people in the middle shouted, and the heart-rending roar startled the others. A cold wind blew in from outside the hole. After entering the cave, the wind made a ghostly whirring sound. Let a few people in the Shura Hall stand on end.
"If we don't leave, we'll all be the same as the third child!, do you still want to stay?" the boss said with a chill down his spine.
"I'm going to kill you!! I can't kill you, I'll kill myself, and then kill your whole family!!" The crazy third child suddenly burst out and punched and kicked at the void. After seeing that there was no result, the green tendons all over his body burst out, and the pitch-black energy surged out, turning into a dragon-headed horse chopping knife. Directly on his forehead, it is a slash.
"No!!" "Third brother!" "Third brother!!" Before a few people could slow down, the third brother had been split in half by himself, and he let out a mad laugh before he died.
The cave suddenly fell silent, and the other three people looked like ashes. Shivering all over, the poignant laughter echoed in their minds all the time, and goosebumps rose all over their bodies. The skinny man didn't seem to be able to withstand such stimulation.
Run straight out of the cave. The white world is like a beast that chooses people to eat, as long as it enters, it will be blown away by the wind without a trace.
The boss hurriedly pulled it back and pressed it to the ground.
"Fourth, calm down, the third is gone, do you want us to lose you?" said the second brother who stepped forward and gave him a slap.
"I don't want to die!" the fourth man curled up on the ground, trembling all over.
"So we have to go, run out of this ghost mountain!! There are not a few people who have fled in the Shura Palace, and some time ago there was a person named Jiang Haobai who ran away. The boss also sat down and said slowly.
"I knew him, he seemed to have found something, and ran away all night while he was keeping vigil. Later, Shen Protector didn't find it. The second child said.
"Then we still have hope to escape!!" a glimmer of hope flashed in the fourth child's eyes.
"That's right, we're leaving with this blizzard this time, and we'll go out when the blizzard gets a little lighter, and the blizzard will blow away the smell and traces of our escape. So no one will be able to find us!" the Boss mused.
"That's it!!" the other two responded.
After a long time, the wind and snow outside the cave gradually subsided, and the three of them went out one after another, the body of the third child was still in place, and the faint smell of blood filled the entire cave. Blood came down from the roof of the cave.
Walking over to the corpse to check, the wind and snow were still going on, and the temperature inside the cave was very low. The blood had already been frozen, and as soon as the blood looked over the corpse, his brows furrowed. It was found that this deceased person was not poisoned, and if it was a Gu worm, it was very rare to survive in such a cold place.
Thinking carefully about the information that the previous few Shura Hall people had said, Xueyi felt that his originally clear thoughts were gradually surrounded by clouds and mist.
What happened to this Shura Temple, and why were there so many disciples who had fled. Suddenly, there was an inexplicable sense of crisis in my heart. This is a kind of intuition of his, and he will often warn when he encounters danger, is it that the Shura Temple is doing this great murderous act.
Shaking his head flung unrealistic thoughts out of his head, and the blood returned to the mouth of the cave. Seeing that the wind and snow gradually subsided, the animals in the cave scattered in all directions, and when they came out of the cave, the wolf was a wolf, and the deer was a deer. Each fights and flees.
The blood also went out, and a heavy snow froze the heavens and the earth, and the boundless whiteness made it impossible to open your eyes. The red ice in his arms turned into a red flame, and the blood rode on his body and warmed his body. Soar into the air, leaving a few pits of smoke in the air. As soon as the blood came, it flew towards the valley of the abyss.
The climate on the mountain is a little different from that below, and it may rain on different days in the east and in the west. After flying only a few kilometers, Xueyi realized that it was a completely different scenery from before. Mountains full of verdant, boundless grasslands. There are also a lot of grazing sheep on it, the sky is clear and the water is clear, and the sheep are on the snow. As soon as the blood came to mind, I remembered a song of Saibei Mingyao.
"The sky is firm, the wilderness is vast, the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep."
