Chapter 14: Tragedy Repeated
"I didn't expect that there was also a stronghold of Baibao Pavilion in Xiangxi. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Ye Lei looked at Zhou Qing at this time and said, "By the way, please help me get the most detailed map of Xiangxi." ”
"My subordinates will do it. Zhou Qing looked at the young man in front of him, he was young, he didn't look like he was twenty-five years old, he actually had the strength of the first level of martial arts, and his identity must be unusual.
As the helmsman of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion, Zhou Qing still has some eyesight, who can be offended and who cannot be neglected, he knows these things very well.
"Look, this is the map you want. When Zhou Qing said this, he then pointed to the two areas on the map, "This is Tianhuai Village, which was destroyed not long ago, and this is Shangwu Village, which was also killed not long ago, so these two places are already a wasteland." ”
Ye Lei put away the map with satisfaction, but he didn't expect that the news of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion would be so well-informed, and in such a short period of time, even such a small village could be discovered.
"Thank you. Ye Lei looked at Zhou Qing and threw out a silver ingot, where did Zhou Qing dare to collect this money, after all, he was a VIP of Baibao Pavilion, and he didn't dare to collect money for a map.
"You are the guest of honor of our Hundred Treasure Pavilion, and this map is a gift from our Hundred Treasure Pavilion. Zhou Qing said, "Of course, if you have anything you need, we can get it all for you." ”
"No need. "Ye Lei got the map, and he was able to understand a little bit about the Xiangxi region, and he would not be as confused as before.
"By the way, do you know about the Spirit Corpse Society?" At this time, Ye Lei remembered that the organization of the Spirit Corpse Society still didn't have the slightest understanding of itself, and it was better to figure it out before leaving.
"The corpse will naturally know. Zhou Qing said, "The people of the Spirit Corpse Society will also purchase some things from me, but we will not leak the news about the guests." ”
"Don't worry, I just want to know, what kind of organization is the Spirit Corpse Society?" Ye Lei said as he looked at Zhou Qing.
"That's right, the Spirit Corpse Society is an organization that specializes in cultivating corpse chasers, and the difference between them and the corpse chasers is that the so-called corpse chasers they cultivate are actually not human beings, they can only be regarded as a kind of corpse. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Hearing Zhou Qing's words, Ye Lei was even more confused, "Could it be that this spirit corpse will not use zombies to fight?
"Ordinary corpse chasers are people who control corpses to fight, but the terrifying thing about corpses is in this place, they are not people controlling corpses, but people and corpses are one......"
"I see. Under Zhou Qing's explanation, Ye Lei also had a preliminary understanding of the Spirit Corpse Society, and Ye Lei also deliberately inquired about the goods purchased here by the Spirit Corpse Society and the Corpse Chasing Sect in the recent period.
"Thank you, you can take this thing. Ye Lei looked at Zhou Qing, and then casually threw out a small jade bottle, which contained the myelin-washing pill refined by Ye Lei.
"Thank you. Zhou Qing looked at the jade bottle in his hand, he had been in the Hundred Treasure Pavilion for several years, and he was also very familiar with the taste of these pills, when Ye Lei handed the pills to himself, Zhou Qing already knew that this was a small bottle of marrow washing pills.
After saying goodbye to Zhou Qing, Ye Lei took Chitu and Ziye to embark on a journey to the depths of detail again, and this time, because Ye Lei had the map Zhou Qing gave him in his hand, the journey was smooth.
"You said that according to our search method, when will we be able to find the Corpse Exorcism Sect and the Spirit Corpse Society. Gathered around the fire, Chitu looked at Ye Lei and said.
"It's not just the Corpse Cult, but now there is another Corpse Society, and it's really troublesome. Ye Lei thought about these two organizations, and he was also a little helpless, "And the most mysterious thing now is what this spirit corpse will do!"
According to what Zhou Qing said, the Spirit Corpse Society has been collecting the corpses left behind by people after death in recent years, and Zhou Qing didn't know what it was used for.
"The first feeling that the Spirit Corpse Society gave me was that there was definitely something wrong with this organization!" Ye Lei said to what Zhou Qing had told him at this time, "Cultivating corpse chasers is probably not their ultimate goal. ”
All night, Ye Lei has been thinking about this problem, but no matter how he thinks about it, he has no way to figure out the reason for this, and the next day, Ye Lei looked at the rising sun in the east, and there was a trace of understanding in his heart.
"When the sun rises in the east, only the light of the sun shines brightest among the heavens and stars, and after sunrise, everything becomes its foil. ”
"But this can't erase the traces of the existence of other things!" At this time, an unfamiliar voice came, and Ye Lei saw that a young man about twenty years old appeared in front of him.
"Who are you who dare to come to our Xiangxi!" The young man looked at Ye Lei at this time and looked at him carefully.
"In Xiatian Yu, I came to Xiangxi to take risks. Ye Lei had already transformed into another middle-aged man at this time, looked at the young man and said.
"If you're an adventurous person, then you might as well go back. The boy said, "We don't care about you outsiders here!"
"Why is that?" Ye Lei said as he looked at the young man, "Could it be that it is also taboo for us to venture here?"
"You outsiders are not welcome here!" the young man said, "Tianhuai Village and Shangwu Village have been wiped out by an outsider, and for us, the talents in your outside world are the most terrifying. ”
"Sometimes, if you don't kill people, people will come and kill you, and this kind of thing can't be changed. Ye Lei said, "The destruction of Tianhuai Village and Shangwu Village is a certainty, and it is not something we can control. ”
"I don't care if you have any definite numbers, you don't want to go over!" The young man picked up the long sword in his hand, looked at Ye Lei and said, "Go back quickly, otherwise you will die a miserable death!"
"It's really interesting, then let me see how miserable I will die!" At this time, Ye Lei rushed directly towards the child, the long sword in the young man's hand seemed to be tied to his hand, and the move did not panic at all, and stabbed directly towards Ye Lei's face.
"Is it innate?" Ye Lei looked at the child in front of him, and after confirming that the child did not have any corpse qi on his body, Ye Lei directly took the child in his arms.
"Little friend, we don't want to kill you, but in exchange, you're going to take us to your village!" Ye Lei looked at the child and said, "Don't try to lie to us, you know?"
"Hurry up and let me go!" the young man said, looking at Ye Lei, "Why should I believe you! You are nothing more than those masters, defrauding us of our money, and finally ruining our family." ”
"Who are you talking about?" Ye Lei said, looking at the young man, "If there is such a person in your village, we may be able to help you get rid of him." ”
"Aren't you guys in a group?" the young man looked at Ye Lei and said, "Then what are you doing in our Liuhuai Village?"
"Did those masters make you do something you didn't want to do?" Ye Lei asked as he looked at the young man at this time.
"You really don't know each other?" The young man glanced at Ye Lei, he knew that he was not Ye Lei's opponent, but the young man still couldn't do such a thing as revealing his whereabouts,
"Liuhuai Village, it seems that there should be a lot of willow and locust trees in your village. Ye Lei said at this time, "Don't worry, you take us there, and we will help you kill those masters." ”
The young man looked at Ye Lei suspiciously, and then at the red rabbit behind Ye Lei, he knew that if these two people wanted to kill themselves, it would be just a matter of gestures.
"Okay, I believe you!" Immediately afterward, the young man told Ye Lei what had happened in Liuhuai Village.
Liuhuai Village, located on the edge of the Xiangxi region, because the whole village is halfway up the mountainside, there are many willows and locust trees planted in the village, but three months ago, a group of people broke the tranquility of Liuhuai Village.
"I don't know what those people do, each of those people has the strength of martial arts, and the highest strength in our village is only the Innate Void Pill realm. ”
According to the young man, after Tianhuai Village and Shangwu Village were destroyed, such a group of people came to Liuhuai Village, and all the villages were very vigilant, and it is said that people from the outside world did it, and these people relied on their own strength to say that they could protect the people on this side, but this is not free protection, and Liuhuai Village also needs to pay a certain price.
"So, your village must have given these guys a lot of benefits?" Ye Lei looked at the young man and said, "What do they want from you?"
"They want children who are under the age of 10. When the boy said this, his teeth gritted out, which showed that the boy's resentment towards these people was very heavy.
"We don't know exactly what they're going to do with children under the age of 10, but the only thing I know is that these kids haven't been back since they were sent away. ”
"So, how many children have you sent out during this time?" Ye Lei frowned, he knew in his heart that there was a chance that this would be a ghost of the spirit corpse.
"Thirty, a whole thirty children. The boy said, "Those people promised to train these children well and make them excellent warriors, and when they heard the news, all the villagers felt a little impulsive to hand over their children to these people. ”
"Didn't those parents go to find their children?" Ye Lei asked with some confusion at this time, "Didn't you find out where these people took their children?"
"Someone approached them, but they were turned down. "Some of the parents followed, but, like their children, never returned." ”
"It's already like this, can it be said that the villagers still don't doubt it?" Ye Lei looked at the young man, "Also, you were talking about the Xiangxi region before, not your Liuhuai Village." ”
Ye Lei's gaze became extremely cold at this time, and under his gaze, the young man also trembled a little.
"This ...... This is because the ......" young man squeaked and couldn't speak at this time, and Ye Lei's gaze became even colder.
"So, you should tear off your mask too!" Ye Lei put his hand on the young man's face and directly tore off the young man's human skin mask.
"Who are you?" After tearing off the mask, what was revealed was a charming face, and Ye Lei didn't expect that this person would be a girl.
"I didn't expect to be discovered by you. At this time, the girl struggled hard, directly broke away from Ye Lei's hands, and kept a certain distance from Ye Lei to ensure her safety.
"Who are you, why are you here to stop us!" Ye Lei said as the Heavenly Sword came out of his hand and pointed at the woman.
"After you came, you destroyed our two villages in Xiangxi in a row, can we still welcome you? In our opinion, you are a cold-blooded butcher like those so-called masters!" The girl's voice had returned to its original state at this time, "Is it possible that you still have to wait for you to destroy all our villages?"
"The demise of Tianhuai Village has nothing to do with me!" Ye Lei looked at the girl at this time and said, "As for Shangwu Village, they deserve it, and besides, I only killed the people of the Spirit Corpse Society, and the people of Shangwu Village have already been killed by them!"
"This is just your words, your name is Tian Yu, right, do you want to know how we recognized you?" the girl looked at Ye Lei and said.
And this is also the question in Ye Lei's heart, he has changed his appearance, but these people still recognize him, it stands to reason that it is absolutely impossible.
Moreover, Ye Lei also carefully checked the items on his body, and even the piece of jade on his chest was put away by himself, and there would be no flaws at all.
"It's not you, it's your friend!" the girl pointed to the red rabbit behind Ye Lei at this time and said, "Although you have changed your appearance, your hair has revealed your identity!"
"Hair?" Ye Lei looked at Chitu, but he didn't find anything different, and the hairstyle had changed dramatically from when he came here before, so it was impossible to recognize it.
"You smell blood in your hair. The girl said, "I didn't expect it, people in our Xiangxi area have been dealing with corpses since childhood, and they are the most sensitive to the smell of blood. ”
"I see. Ye Lei didn't expect that he would be negligent about this, and from this girl's words, he could also hear that this girl was not a member of the Spirit Corpse Society.
"Let's go. Ye Lei put away the Heavenly Sword and said to the girl, "Just because we have never seen it." ”
"You let me go?" The girl looked at Ye Lei, originally she thought that Ye Lei would kill herself without hesitation, but this man actually said that he would let himself go.
"That's right, you go, what I'm going to kill is the Spirit Corpse Society and the people of the Corpse Sect, and it has nothing to do with you. "I don't kill innocent people. ”
"But how many innocent people have died because of you?" said the girl, "I advise you, you better leave Xiangxi, Xiangxi is not a place where your strength can travel." ”
After saying this, the girl left directly, but what the girl said when she left made Ye Lei's heart feel a little touched.
Maybe she's right. Ye Lei shook his head helplessly, he didn't know how many people died because of himself, but what he could do now was to avoid more lives from being ruined.
Under the girl's reminder, Chitu also restrained the breath of his hair, he didn't expect that just a little bit of blood breath could be discovered by these Xiangxi warriors, which also increased his curiosity about Xiangxi.
"I didn't expect that there really was Liuhuai Village on this map. Ye Lei looked at the map in his hand, the location of Liuhuai Village formed a triangle with Shangwu Village and Tianhuai Village, and at the same time, he also believed that what the girl said just now was true.
When they arrived at Liuhuai Village, the village was already empty, only bones everywhere and some stinking livestock, and it was obvious that the village had been slaughtered before he arrived.
"This is not the method of the Corpse Society. Ye Lei looked at the several corpses lying on the ground at this time, "This person looks more like he was torn in half and died." ”
"Who would have such strength to be able to tear people in half, and he is also a martial artist. Ye Lei looked at these people lying on the ground at this time, these people died in different ways, they were bitten to death, hacked to death, they were taken out of their hearts and died, etc., the methods were very cruel.
"And this man was here before us, as if he knew we were coming. Ye Lei frowned, "If that's the case, we can easily be framed!"
"It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go quickly!" Chitu looked at Ye Lei at this time, and hurriedly pulled Ye Lei out of Liuhuai Village.
Leaving Liuhuai Village, Ye Lei's mind was still the tragic scene of Liuhuai Village, although he preliminarily decided that this was not done by the Spirit Corpse Society, but it was not the Spirit Corpse Society, could it be the method of the Corpse Sect?
Following the instructions on the map, Ye Lei walked through the next few villages, all of which were killed without exception, and the method of killing was exactly the same as that of the murderer in Liuhuai Village.
"The blood is still warm, which means that the murderer has not gone far!" Ye Lei looked around at this time, but did not find any clues.
"It looks like we can only go to the next village!" Chitu looked at Ye Lei, "Since this person hasn't gone far, then he must have the next goal!"
"Wait a minute, I've found a problem!" Ye Lei said after squatting next to a corpse at this time, carefully observing the wounds of this corpse, "These people seem to have been killed by zombies!"
"What did you say, zombie?" Chitu said in surprise, "How do you know?"
"Look at this scar, it's clearly two fangs, and the whole body of the corpse remains intact, but there is not a drop of blood left in the whole corpse. Ye Lei said calmly at this time.
