Chapter 4: Conspiracy
Early in the morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone on the earth, the simple peasant families of Fengmo Village also started a new day's life, but how could these ordinary people know that a catastrophe was about to come.
Recently, the number of outsiders in Tulei City has suddenly increased dramatically, they are dressed differently, and some of them are even far from the Central Plains people in appearance. Some of them are rough and arrogant, and they are generous, and they are happy to spoil the business bosses in Tulei City; some are feminine and cunning, and when they look at them, they make people feel dangerous, and their hairs stand on end; some of them are extravagant, and they are carried forward by eight young girls, and the petals are scattered along the way, which is very beautiful; and there are also people who are neatly dressed in uniform clothes, as disciplined as an army, and even all of them act with a wonderful rhythm... But the most eye-catching thing is the three major factions. Each of these three major factions has been inherited from ancient times to the present, and it is still standing after thousands of years, so you can imagine how deep the foundation they have accumulated.
In the early morning, the streets of Tulei City were not bustling as usual, but the doors and windows of each house were closed, and the usual cries and shouts disappeared today, but no one appreciated the beautiful spring light, and the breeze blew, except for the rustling of the leaves on the trees, there was no sound.
Everything seemed so unusual.
At the gate of Tulei City, people from all walks of life have gathered here. Although they came for the same purpose, they all stood in a clear position, and none of them went to communicate with others without permission, and each had a bad idea.
At this time, a person walked out of a team, and everyone in this person's team was covered by black robes, and there was a cold aura around him, so that others did not dare to approach.
He walked to the middle of the crowd, and before he could speak, a sneer came out first: "Everyone, we are gathered here this time to exterminate the last remnants of the demon clan, and when we fight the demon clan, I hope that no one will secretly attack!" His cold gaze swept around, and everyone only felt that they were being targeted by a poisonous snake, and the hairs on their bodies exploded. The people of Lingyinmen are all ruthless, and they really live up to their reputation.
"Amitabha!" A loud Buddha horn came, awakening everyone from the terrifying artistic conception, looking for prestige, are two monks, they are wearing yellow monk's robes, these two are the leader holding a wooden fish, kind eyebrows, smile before speaking, the wide monk's robe covers his fat body, at first glance like a Maitreya Buddha; The two of them have a long breath, and there is a golden light shining behind their heads, which is obviously a scene that can only be found in the great achievements of Buddhism.
"Amitabha!" The monk led by him recited the Buddha name again, and said with a smile: "Lord Mo Shi is not impatient, the people gathered here are heroes from all walks of life, we are here to exterminate the remnants of the demon race, we are all people in the same way, I believe that you will not be behind the scenes." He looked around with a smile, and suddenly his momentum changed, and he suddenly became fierce, not at all like a monk who had attained the Tao: "But then again, whoever dares to be unfavorable to us behind our backs is to be the enemy of the world's heroes!
At this time, the gloomy man surnamed Mo said again: "I also believe that there are no traitors here who eat inside and out, but there are people who are not necessarily." His gloomy gaze looked at a place in the crowd, and suddenly said sharply: "Young Sect Master of the Demon Sect, I don't know what you are doing here? Could it be that your Demon Sect introduced the Demon Clan into this realm?"
Everyone was surprised, and looked towards the crowd, only to see eight girls carrying a huge soft sedan chair and walking into the room. The light veil on the soft sedan chair hung high, cutting off everyone's sight, and a lazy male voice came out from inside: "Mo Yubai, don't be alarmist, we Demon Sect can't afford to wear such a big hat!" He paused, and said: "In the past year, our Demon Sect also contributed a lot in the battle of sealing demons, and there were countless masters of the Demon Clan, and when we were needed, we didn't take half a step back! Although our Sect has long had a dislike with your Lingyin Sect, but at this time, a big chaos is about to break out, and you are a little petty in bringing your personal enmity into the major event of exterminating the Demon Clan? If you talk nonsense in front of me again, I don't mind letting your Spiritual Hidden Sect disappear from now on!"
As soon as the words fell, a terrifying momentum suddenly enveloped everyone, and dozens of Demon Sect masters suddenly appeared from the crowd, and these people's blood and qi were like an ocean, exuding powerful cultivation fluctuations. surrounded the Lingyin Gate.
Mo Yubai, the young sect of the Lingyin Sect, had a gloomy face, and snorted coldly: "Do you really think that my Lingyin Sect is afraid of your Demon Sect? All kinds of signs show that the Demon Clan was brought out by you from the gap in the world barrier!" He waved his hand, and the dozens of assassins behind him were silent, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into wisps of green smoke and lurked, ready to fight to the death with the Demon Sect.
"Amitabha!" A Buddha horn came, and the fat monk walked into the entrance, his fat hands flicking the wooden fish in the shape of flowers. "Bang!" Circles of sound waves visible to the naked eye spread out from the crowd, shaking the masters of the Demon Sect and the Spirit Hidden Sect back a step.
Everyone was shocked, what kind of cultivation did this old monk Shao do? Not to mention the momentum of one man to resist the masters of the two factions, but also to force them back with one move, what a profound cultivation this is!
The old monk's face was not red, he was not panting, and said to everyone: "Amitabha! Don't kill each other because of unfounded suspicions, aren't you falling for the tricks of the demon clan? ! The old man saw that it was getting late, why don't we go to seal the demon mountain now, ambush it, and take the demon clan off guard!"
The crowd responded. So the masters of all walks of life showed their own skills, went straight to the direction of the Sealed Demon Mountain, and rushed away!
Seal the Demon Village.
The early morning sun shines on the fields, dyeing the whole field golden and full of life. The simple peasants had already begun their day's work.
In the field, a little girl raised her head and saw the distant sky flashing with dazzling light, she opened her mouth wide in surprise, called her mother beside her, and said loudly: "Mother, there are fairies!" The middle-aged peasant woman smiled gently at her daughter, "Where are the gods, this stupid child", but when she raised her head and looked at her daughter's gaze, she was stunned, and the bright light that seemed to fly from the sky made her unable to look directly, she hurriedly pulled her daughter to kneel down and prayed sincerely to the sky.
In this Dao Huaguang, it is the heroes of this Demon Mountain Meeting.
In the valley of the Seven Peaks of the Demon Seal, a group of heroes gathered, but the atmosphere was very depressing.
This is exactly the middle of the place surrounded by the seven mountain peaks, the battle of the Big Dipper Demon Seal in the past has long been a thing of the past, the Seven Peaks of the Demon Seal have long been overgrown with weeds and shrubs, only here, the soil is black, not a single grass grows, and even the surrounding weeds have signs of withering, in the vibrant spring, this phenomenon is really abnormal.
The heroes have always been on guard, and if the demons come to attack, this place will become a battleground. But the time of a cup of tea passed, and nothing happened, except for the wind in the valley passing through, and there was not a single sound.
One hour, two hours, and still nothing happened.
The Mo Shao Sect Master of the Lingyin Sect spoke: "This place is strange, if the demon clan invades, it will inevitably fight to the death, but why is there no movement for a long time?" He turned to the fat monk of the King Kong Gate beside him and said: "Master Puhong, I am willing to lead my Lingyin Sect and a group of masters to investigate around, and then come back to discuss and decide with you." ”
Master Puhong scrutinized him, an occasional flash of cold light in his narrowed eyes. After a while, Pu Hong smiled: "It's okay, the Lingyin Sect is good at the technique of concealment, which is suitable for investigation, so you will have to work hard." With that, he picked up the wooden fish and did his Buddhist homework.
Mo Yubai's back was already wet with cold sweat, and he secretly said in his heart: "This old thief has such a vicious eye, could it be that he found something?" he thought about it for a moment and shook his head, "No, my arrangement is seamless, except for Yu Xi, no one knows!" Thinking of this, he had a little more confidence and beckoned everyone from Lingyin Sect to investigate around.
"Senior brother, there won't be any problems with the Lingyin Sect, right?" asked Pu Hong's junior brother Pu Zhi.
Puhong didn't open his eyes, he said lightly: "Mo Yubai hasn't left yet, those who have left are all small minions, if there is a problem, Mo Yubai is afraid that he will be the first to evacuate this place." And when he had said that, he spoke no more.
Night falls. The heroes still did not retreat, because the attack of the demon clan was definitely not groundless. They simply sat on the ground, took out food and drink, and prepared to spend the night in the mountains. The people of the Lingyin Gate had already returned at sunset, and they all reported that they had found no abnormalities.
It was night, the sky was full of stars, and the moon was hanging high. Except for a few people who kept vigil, the group had rested.
Suddenly, a red light flashed on the ground. "Huh?" a night watchman was stunned, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a bewitching red light flashing under his feet, like a bolt of lightning, swimming through the grass, and disappearing in an instant.
"What's wrong?" asked one of the people next to him when he heard his voice. "There seems to be a light, rushing to the grass!" Another night watchman laughed: "Daniel Zhang, didn't you drink too much just now, you look at the moon so bright, maybe it's the flickering light shining somewhere, don't scare yourself!"
However, the next moment he was speechless.
The strange red light flickered and flew among the grass, and in the blink of an eye, a crimson magic circle was formed around the camp where the heroes were resting, and it became brighter and brighter under the baptism of the moonlight, as bright as breathing.
"Wake up!" Daniel Zhang, the night watchman, shouted, "There is a situation!" Everyone heard his shout, and they were all awakened. When they saw the scene in front of them, they were all stunned. Everyone wanted to leave this strange magic circle, but they couldn't mobilize their own cultivation power no matter what, and even the surrounding area was blocked, and when they reached the edge of the magic circle, they were bounced back by an invisible force, and they couldn't leave.
Master Puhong is well-informed, he carefully observed the magic circle under his feet, and suddenly his complexion changed greatly, his original fat face was full of horror, cold sweat poured down, he shouted: "Amitabha! This is the blood sacrifice circle inherited by the ancient demon race, this group of demons does not want to sacrifice blood to seal the villagers of the demon village, but to sacrifice our blood to perform evil spells." This kind of magic circle, I have seen it in the temple classics, it is very vicious!"
When the heroes heard this, they immediately panicked, some pulled out their weapons and slashed the magic circle, some grabbed the ground with their heads and bowed to the sky, and some people were so anxious that they jumped their feet and paced anxiously in the magic circle... This trip seems to have long been out of the category of the word "group of heroes".
Suddenly, an inexplicable black mist rose up around the circle, obscuring everyone's sight, which made everyone in the array more and more restless.
"Boom..." A shrill laugh pierced everyone's eardrums like a magic sound, and people found that beyond the black fog, there seemed to be several figures, fluctuating and unreal.
One of the dark shadows said, "What heroes, are they still struggling like beasts when they are trapped in the Blood Sacrifice Array?" his voice was low and hoarse, but the disdain in his words was obvious. "Struggle, sacrifices, the more intense you struggle, the stronger your blood becomes. At that time, we will use this as a base to sacrifice the people of the Demon Village with blood, completely break the seal, and let the Demon Venerable be reborn!"
The red light in the circle was abundant, and everyone soon discovered that a kind of corrosive power was slowly corroding their whole bodies, and they even felt that even their blood was muddy, contaminated by the evil energy in the circle. After half a cup of tea, some people around who were not good at cultivation were already paralyzed on the ground, and they didn't know who they were, but they still had cultivation in their bodies, if they were ordinary people, they would have already turned into blood!
Master Puhong's eyes were red, and he shouted: "Amitabha! Everyone, sit down around the old man, I have a kind of magic that can still resist, reinforcements are already on the way, you hold on!" In fact, he knew in his heart that there were no reinforcements, and he gave up his Arhat power in exchange for the addition of Buddhism, which had nothing to do with cultivation, but from then on, he could only be a mortal.
However, although some of these people are not good at cultivation and come to join in the fun, most of them are elites, if these people are all here, who will resist the invasion of the demons in the future? It is conceivable how vicious the demons' intentions are!
After listening to Master Puhong's words, everyone felt a little relieved and sat around him according to his words. Master Puhong raised his right hand, two fingers and fingers like a sword, and slashed towards his wrist, and suddenly, a stream of red and gold blood flowed out, dripping on the wooden fish beside him. "Senior brother!" Pu Zhi's eyes were sad, and the senior brother gave up his Dao Fruit in exchange for a moment of peace for them.
Master Puhong gently knocked on the wooden fish, recited the Buddhist scriptures, and suddenly with his tapping, a circle of golden ripples spread out into the distance, and the ripples were everywhere, everyone felt that their bodies were light, and the evil energy of the magic circle was greatly weakened, and even the power of cultivation was slowly recovering.
"This old monk still has a bit of backbone!" said a figure in the black mist, "Look at your Arhat blood or my magic circle energy!" The golden ripples and the blood-colored magic circle energy canceled each other, and Puhong's face gradually turned pale.
Seal the Demon Village.
Sun Quan and the Liao couple were sitting on a stone table in the courtyard drinking, suddenly, Sun Quan sighed: "Alas, the time to come is still coming!" He raised his head and drank the liquor in the cup, and said: "The heroes are in trouble, the demon clan is extremely vicious this time, I will go to save people first, you hold on! There is my magic circle outside the door, I think I can hold on for a while." If the offender is too strong, run away and head in the direction of the Tulei City Bookstore! My spiritual sense tells me that this place is very extraordinary, and may be able to provide shelter!"
He stood up and waved his big hand, and the ape wand in the room flew into his palm. There seemed to be a raging fire in his eyes, and the flames around him were rising, like a flame god of war. Sun Quan stomped on the ground with one foot and rose into the sky, like a comet, straight to the Sealing Demon Mountain!
