Chapter 228: The Night of Lingshan Mountain (2)
Everyone was anxious, Song Tieqiu helped the Bloody Giant Baby to the corner of the main hall, and sat her body against the pillar, he was an earth attribute, and the Force itself had the energy effect of healing, he exercised the Xuan Qi in his body, and slowly injected the internal force into the Bloody Giant Baby's body.
After a while, the bloody giant baby came to her senses, someone brought a bowl of hot water, she drank a few sips, looked at everyone, and continued to tell the story:
It turned out that she and the old woman with flowers had been ordered to find the two children who met the conditions two days ago, so they inquired around and carried out deception in the name of accepting apprentices.
Just this morning, they finally found a family, a small town about forty miles away from here, there is a Chen family, there are two brothers, one is a son, and the other is a daughter. So the old woman with flowers said that she wanted to take them as apprentices, because these two children were too talented and were materials for learning martial arts.
The two families were very happy, so they were warmly entertained, and they showed a few skills on the spot to open the eyes of these villagers, and they were really recognized by everyone, and they were willing to worship them as teachers, but as soon as they heard that the dolls were going to be taken away, the two parents were a little hesitant, after all, there are too many things to deceive people now.
The old women with flowers did everything they could to prove how they were orthodox and safe, and they had been persuading them until the evening. In the end, the family agreed, and after leaving them for dinner, they were ready to send them away.
However, just as they were about to set off, they suddenly broke into a group of masked men, all of whom had mastered their martial arts. So, a big battle started in the courtyard, and the old woman with flowers was killed on the spot, and she secretly escaped in the chaos, and that's it.
"What's going on?" Song Weiting said to himself, frowning.
Zhou Lanzhi didn't speak, but through this incident, she vaguely felt that something big might happen, and her heart couldn't help but tighten.
Song Tieqiu stood up, shook the dust on his body, he lost another general, he glanced at his second brother, and then walked in front of Zhou Lanzhi, and gave a deep salute: "Sister Lan, my subordinates are very sad and blame themselves, all because of the repeated mistakes of my subordinates, they have dragged things out until now, so that there is nothing to be done now." ”
Zhou Lanzhi waved his hand: "Third brother, it's serious, these things are all accidents, no one can think of it, it's very unpredictable." Our first task now is to deal with the Tiger Spirit Beast, and the other is to find out where this force that suddenly appeared came from, and they may be the biggest enemy to us in the future. ”
"Could it be those people who came from Hongshan County?" Qian Jiangxi looked at Song Tieqiu and said.
Song Tieqiu said: "It's hard to say, when Hongshan County rebelled, in fact, the vast majority of those people were ordinary people, so it was not a problem, and there were also troops of the government's general soldier Tian Jungkook. In my opinion, except for the Beigong girl, no one else will be able to follow in time, the officers and soldiers will not dress up, they will only attack clearly, and they should not dare to act rashly at present. ”
"It's really a strange thing, okay, let's stop for a while, the time is almost up, let's go see the tiger spirit beast." Zhou Lanzhi said.
Everyone nodded, so a group of people followed Zhou Lanzhi into the inner hall, and then went out of the back door and onto a hidden path.
Song Tieqiu was secretly stopped by a person, this person was Feng Lei, Feng Lei brought Hong Si's words to him, Song Tieqiu was stunned at first, and hurriedly asked him to go back quickly, and he quickly followed everyone.
Yuhan and Yun Yao smiled and smiled under the cover of Xiao Hei, and quietly entered the Lingling Mountain. They hung on the top edge of the main hall of the Tiger Spirit Temple, and had a full view of Zhou Lanzhi and the others' action plans and conversations.
As soon as the two discussed, the soldiers were divided into two ways, Yun Yao Xiaoxiao was responsible for saving the group of children, and Yuhan continued to follow them to find out the situation of the tiger spirit beast.
She followed the group of people and came to a mountain cliff, the shape is a bit like the Yandang Mountain's Yanyi Cliff, except that this side is single-winged, much steeper and much smaller, in front of which is a rift about ten zhang wide, opposite is another mountain range, facing this side is a flat mountain wall, and there is a large oval black hole on the mountain wall. The wind was blowing around, and the smoke and clouds at the entrance of the cave were entangled, which was eerie and terrifying, and it was very scary. The cliff was already surrounded by people in black.
I saw everyone walking on the cliff, Zhou Lanzhi was in front of the left, Song Weiting was standing in front of the right diagonally, and everyone else was standing around.
Everyone looked at the cave opposite, the night was already deep, and it was pitch black in the distance, even the men in black were holding torches, and the valley of the cliff seemed to suck in all the light.
Yu Han couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, this ghost place is really a terrifying place, thinking that the tiger spirit beast lives in the black hole opposite, the yin qi is heavy, and dozens of children are buried here every year. These evil people are innocent of death, and this tiger spirit beast is also a heavy sin.
Zhou Lanzhi turned his head to everyone and said: "Everyone, in a quarter of an hour or so, the tiger spirit beast will come out, everyone should respect it a hundred times, although it will not talk to us humans, but it can understand what we say, the demon beast is different from the demon beast, it is very spiritual; As a result, it sucked it up and devoured it in one gulp. ”
"Yes, please rest assured, Sister Lan. And they all answered.
Zhou Lanzhi said again: "I say this because no one else here has seen a tiger spirit beast except for me, Master Enping, and Song Protector, and I may be surprised when I see it for the first time, and if I miss it, it will be bad." ”
Everyone replied again: "Thank you, Sister Lan, you must not make a mistake." ”
"Today it will be upgraded to a third-level demon beast, this power is not trivial, Brother Qian, you have to work hard, go and escort those children over, remember to blindfold them, otherwise because of their cries and other frightening tiger spirit beasts, everyone will be bad." Zhou Lanzhi said, "Master Enping, Song Protector, can you see it?"
The two of them nodded. Master Enping waved his hand, and a middle-aged lama hurriedly stepped forward, "Apprentice, take him there"
"Yes"
Qian Jiangxi hurriedly left with the lama.
The crowd waited silently. A quarter of an hour or so, suddenly, a few lightning bolts in the sky brightened the inky black night sky, and the roaring thunder suddenly rose up, which seemed to shake the entire Lingling Mountain.
Master Enping clasped his hands and said something in his mouth, everyone knew that the tiger spirit beast was about to appear. Many people are excited, and there is a lot of fear and fear.
The tiger spirit animal comes out of the hole once every five years, so every time it comes out of the hole, eighteen similar children must be provided to honor it. There is an iron chain in the cave from the cliff to the opposite mountain wall, usually, put two children into the basket, blindfolded, the basket hangs on the chain, and with a push, the basket can automatically slide slowly into the black hole from this side.
Yuhan hid in the shadows, and she was also very curious, although she said that she had seen all kinds of demonic beasts, demon beasts and divine beasts in the Black Forest. But what kind of monster is this child-eating tiger spirit beast, she also desperately wants to see it.
I saw that in the black hole, a puff of white smoke floated up, which became thicker and thicker.
Zhou Lanzhi whispered: "Brothers, wait a minute, please obey my commands." Don't talk nonsense, remember. ”
"Yes, please rest assured, Sister Lan. The crowd whispered yes.
The white smoke cleared, and it was the light of the flames...
Yuhan remembered the fire lion camel beast back then, and when he came out of the hole, it was also full of fire, of course, it was not as strong as the current tiger spirit beast, it was only a seventh-level demonic beast, and this guy was about to enter the third-level demon beast. If Xin Bai is here, he can definitely defeat it.
In the red light appeared a fierce, tall tiger, this tiger was dark red, black markings, a huge head, a horn on the top of the head, the body was long, the tail and limbs were very strong, it was a little deformed, and indeed it was a little ugly.
It stepped on the entrance of the cave with its front feet, looking at this side, the difference was more than ten zhang, and people still felt the heat and sultry, but there was a bad wind.
Zhou Lanzhi's facial expression was calm, but she was very nervous in her heart, it was the first time that she led the team to greet the tiger spirit beast alone, although she knew the etiquette and routines well, but no one knew if there would be any changes in the middle, and besides, there were obviously two children missing, this tiger spirit beast didn't know if it would let them go.
She hurriedly took the lead and knelt down on her knees, shouting in her mouth, "Welcome to the arrival of the Tiger Spirit God Emperor." ”
The others behind also bowed down one after another, and also shouted the words "Welcome to the arrival of the Tiger Spirit God Emperor".
The tiger spirit beast shook its head, looked around, as if it was enjoying it, it squinted, and snorted gently, like a bell.
Zhou Lanzhi hurriedly led everyone to stand up, and then retreated from a clearing, the tiger spirit beast jumped from the entrance of the cave, and came to the empty field, the red light dispersed, and it slowly lay down.
Zhou Lanzhi waved his hand, and ten young girls in front of him came with big brushes, brooms, and bath towels, followed by more than 20 strong men carrying five large buckets and walked slowly, it turned out that they were going to bathe it.
Yuhan wanted to laugh in his heart: It's very interesting, I also bathed my pet cat in my previous life, and it was very difficult, mainly because the cat was afraid of water and refused to cooperate. I didn't expect this tiger to really know how to enjoy it, and I need someone to help it take a bath, and I want a beauty to wash it, hehehe!
There are many and complicated steps in bathing, and a lot of time is consumed. Yuhan waited patiently.
But Zhou Lanzhi couldn't wait, because Qian Jiangxi hadn't brought anyone with her, she looked at Elder Enping and Song Weiting and the others.
Song Tieqiu hurriedly said: "Sister Lan, why don't I go and take a look, and chase them back quickly?"
"Okay, there's Third Brother Lao. ”
Song Tieqiu just ran outside and collided with a person, everyone took a closer look, it was Qian Jiangxi.
His face was solemn, and he approached Zhou Lanzhi and said softly: "It's a big deal......
After Zhou Lanzhi listened, her face changed greatly, and she didn't take a breath, but fainted directly.
