Chapter 149: Civil Strife

、、、、、、、

The night gradually darkened, and the Viper Valley, which had been immersed in the invisible tension for a whole day, seemed to slowly fall into a deep sleep, and the dim lights slowly went out, except for the cold and lonely mourning hall.

The door of the mourning hall was still open, and the cold night breeze blew through, blowing the candles that were still burning on the mourning hall to the light and extinguish, casting strange shadows on the ground. In the distance outside the door, in the silence, there seemed to be some voice whispering, like crying, like chuckling, and it seemed to be the sound of the wind blowing the trees, which made people not really hear, and only felt a little chill in their hearts.

From the few candles on the mourning hall that were still lingering to the light outside the house, there was still a faint mist floating outside the house at night in this valley, like light smoke, floating in the darkness and shadows, changing various shapes.

And above the mourning hall, there is still only one person who keeps watch all night, Qin Wuyan.

He still knelt before the spirit, his head bowed, his eyes wandering, as if he were looking at some unknown place. The copper basin in front of him was already full of burnt paper money turned into black paper ashes, fluttering with the night breeze blowing in from time to time, and occasionally one or two pieces of scattered paper ashes were blown up by the wind, leaving the copper basin, slowly floating in the room, and then most of them quietly fell back on the offering table in front of the coffin, and fell on the three animal plates of worship.

In the dark, but there is still a pair of eyes, looking at all this?

Footsteps suddenly sounded, and he stepped on the flat ground and walked into the mourning hall. Qin Wuyan's body shook, no matter who said it, it was not a pleasant thing for anyone to suddenly hear the sound of footsteps behind him at this moment. He looked back, his brow furrowed, and his face was a little surprised, obviously the person who came was not what he expected.

What caught his eye was a tall person, but his clothes were very different from ordinary Demon Sect disciples, dressed in Taoist robes and with a dignified square face, who was the person of the Demon Sect Ten Thousand Poisons Sect who worshiped Cangsong Dao.

Qin Wuyan looked at Cang Song, Cang Song also looked at Qin Wuyan, neither of them spoke, and then Cang Song walked straight to the front of the offering table in front of the coffin, picked up the fine incense placed on the table, put it on a residual candle on the side and lit it, bowed respectfully to the spiritual position, took another step, and inserted the incense candle into the incense burner.

Qin Wuyan patiently watched Cangsong Daoren's every move, from beginning to end, when Cangsong Daoist turned around again, Qin Wuyan bowed his head slightly, it was considered a disciple to return the salute, although there was no expression on his face, but his tone was still very calm and polite and said, "Thank you, Daoist. 」

Cangsong Daoren nodded and said, "After all, I have a guest with the old man, although this incense stick is a little late, but it is always my heart. 」

Qin Wuyan still knelt, looked at the spiritual position, and said lightly, "It's okay, as long as the Dao Master is sincere, I think the master will be very happy if he has a spirit in the sky." 」

Cangsong Daoist stared at Qin Wuyan, looked at it for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Young Master Qin, you don't seem to like me all along. 」

Qin Wuyan's eyes raised slightly, as if he didn't expect Cangsong Daoren to suddenly ask such a question, which was a little strange, but after looking at Cangsong Daoren for a while, he still said calmly: "Daoist Master misunderstood, Your Excellency was a guest of honor when his master was alive, and he was also a respected senior in the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, Wuyan didn't dare to be slack. It's just that now the teacher has unfortunately passed away, and he is sad in his heart, if there is any disrespect and faux pas, please also ask the senior Haihan. 」

Cangsong Daoren still had a smile on his face, and his gaze slowly turned to the spirit seat of the poison god in front of him, and in front of that spirit position, the box containing the seal of the master of the Ten Thousand Poison Gate was quietly placed there. Cangsong Daoist looked at it for a while, and suddenly a few low and weird cries came from him, as if it was like some kind of insect chirping, Qin Wuyan's face changed slightly, and Cangsong Daoren was also stunned, but then he suddenly smiled and said: "Old master, old master, you should be able to go with peace of mind, look at what you taught, there is such a talented apprentice, it's really not easy!"

Qin Wuyan's face sank, a faint glint flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Dao Chief, what did you say?"

Cangsong Daoren turned his head and smiled slightly, but did not speak, just gently pulled up his wrist sleeve. Qin Wuyan's pupils contracted, and he saw a small box tied to the flesh on the arm of the Cangsong Daoist, and the strange sound just now came from here again, which was clearly audible.

With a mysterious smile on his face, Cangsong Dao slowly stretched out this hand to the spirit position in front of him, but when the box tied to his wrist was slightly closer to the box where the seal of the head of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect was placed in front of the spirit position, the box in front of the spirit position suddenly made a low but very clear insect chirp, and the sound sounded exactly the same as the sound from the box on Cangsong Dao's wrist.

Cangsong Daoist slowly withdrew his arm, turned his head to look at Qin Wuyan, and said lightly, "Seven-tailed centipede?"

Qin Wuyan took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were full of essence, and the whole person suddenly changed from that feeling of silence and decadence to being lean and sharp, only to see him slowly stand up from the ground, a pair of eyes staring at Cangsong Daoren, and slowly repeated: "Seven-tailed centipede!"

The originally dark and gloomy mourning hall, after he stood like this, suddenly seemed to be a little bright, and the original cold aura in the air disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Cangsong Daoren didn't see any fear, but instead seemed to feel nothing about the changes around him, and asked Qin Wuyan with a calm expression, "You say, if your master knew that these disciples of his were messing around in front of his spirit shortly after he died, he would be very angry, right?"

Qin Wuyan snorted coldly and said, "Master, his old man is wise and intelligent, he has long seen through this so-called etiquette and customs, not to mention that he is disrespectful in front of his spirit, even if our disciples are fighting each other here, most of his old man will laugh and watch the excitement. 」

Cangsong Daoren nodded slowly, suddenly sighed, and said, "That's true, I've been getting along with the old master day and night for the past ten years, and with his character, I'm afraid it's really like this. As he spoke, he looked at Qin Wuyan and smiled, "I didn't expect you to follow him for the shortest time, but you were the one who knew him the most among the disciples. 」

Qin Wuyan's expression remained unchanged, but his body took a step forward, and said coldly: "Dao Master, aren't you also very good, not only can you see Master clearly, but even my every move can't escape your eyes!"

The smile on Cangsong Daoren's face stiffened slightly, his eyes glanced at Qin Wuyan's footsteps, and suddenly said, "It's past your master's first seven now?"

Qin Wuyan was stunned, he didn't know what Cangsong Daoist suddenly meant by asking such a sentence, but tonight this person's attitude was really strange and unfathomable, not to mention that he had already seen through what he had done on the door master's seal, I was afraid that he would not be able to keep him. Qin Wuyan thought like this in his heart, and said lightly in his mouth, "It's ugly now, it's just passed, what's the matter, doesn't the Dao Master have any advice?" As he spoke, he took another step closer to the Cangsong Daoren.

Cangsong Daoren immediately took a step back, nodded and said, "That's good, let your master pass the first seven safely, it can be regarded as my heart." 」

Qin Wuyan was stunned, and before he could come to his senses, Cangsong Daoren's figure suddenly moved, and in a blink of an eye, he flashed to the door of the mourning hall, raised his breath, and said loudly: "Hey, the door master seals the letter...... Ah......" The first few words in front of him were full of consternation, and halfway through speaking, he was obviously still standing in place, but Cangsong Daoren suddenly cried out in pain as if he had been hit hard, as if he had been attacked by someone.

Qin Wuyan's face suddenly changed color, but it was too late to stop it, the voice of the Cangsong Daoist was already echoing in the quiet and deep Viper Valley, and after a while, there seemed to be an echo in the distance, and there was a faint "ah" sound everywhere in the valley.

At the first moment, the Viper Valley seemed to be startled by something, almost more dead and silent than before, but just after a moment, countless noisy voices surged from all corners of the Viper Valley, like waves, but countless people who had been waiting for a long time jumped out, and all kinds of questions, scolding, scolding, and commanding voices merged into one, turning into invisible waves, and they poured from all directions to this mourning hall.

Cangsong Daoren turned around and smiled slightly, waved his hand at Qin Wuyan, who was pale, and said, "Virtuous nephew, I will help you as an uncle, in case you can sit on the throne of the Lord in the future, don't forget today's feelings!" Then, without saying much, the figure shook, and the moment before Qin Wuyan rushed to the door, he quickly flew into the darkness outside the door, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Qin Wuyan gasped by the door, his eyes were full of anger, obviously Cangsong Daoren's sudden appearance completely disrupted his wishful thinking, at this moment, the surrounding people were boiling, seeing that the mourning hall was about to be surrounded by countless people and horses of the three senior brothers, Qin Wuyan stomped his feet fiercely, and immediately made a decision, and threw himself into the darkness outside the house like Cangsong Dao people, and disappeared after a while.

In the next moment, countless Ten Thousand Poison Sect disciples with torches and sharp blades in their hands, under the leadership of the three great disciples of the Poison God, rushed into the Poison God Spirit Hall with great momentum.

And after a moment of silence, the sound of angry shouts of killing resounded in the Viper Valley under the night, and suddenly swept through the entire valley.

The night is getting darker and darker.

When the rising sun cast the first light on the earth, the Cangsong Daoist who flew out of the Viper Valley unconsciously had already flown in the air with his sword, and appeared above a small city four hundred miles northeast of the Viper Valley.

This nameless hill is mostly covered with wild maple trees, which look beautiful from the sky. In front of the maple forest, there are three men and one woman standing at this moment, it is the Ghost King, Mr. Ghost, Ghost Li and Youji.

Seeing Cang Song falling, a smile appeared on the Ghost King's face, and he greeted him, smiling and saying, "How is it, is it going well?"

Cangsong Daoren nodded, and said, "Sure enough, as the sect master expected, Qin Wuyan's injuries have indeed recovered, and he has done things and feet in the box of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect Master's Seal Letter, most of which is to put the seven-tailed centipede in it, no matter who opens this box, as long as Qin Wuyan secretly manipulates, no one can escape the bite of the seven-tailed centipede." With the strange poison of the seven-tailed centipede, most of this person will die. 」

The Ghost King laughed loudly, and turned to Mr. Ghost and the others, "You see, these local methods have been used countless times, and there are still people using them!"

Ghost Li's face was indifferent, he didn't say anything, Yuhime also remained silent, only Mr. Ghost said lightly: "The method is indeed a bit outdated and rustic, but as long as it works, it is a good way. 」

The Ghost King nodded and said, "That's right, speaking of which, the Poison God Seniors are also a generation of heroes in our Holy Sect, and it's really disappointing that the apprentices they accept are all in such roles. 」

Cangsong Daoren smiled beside him, "But that Qin Wuyan is indeed a good character, it's a pity. 」

The ghost king glanced at him, and couldn't help laughing again, everyone didn't speak for a while, the ghost Li stood aside, glanced at the ghost king silently, frowned, somehow, he seemed to feel that the ghost king was a little strange today.

However, this idea did not go deeper, because soon, in the small city that had just woken up in the early morning, there was a sudden burst of heart-rending screams, and soon, countless screams rang out everywhere, among which someone could clearly be heard shouting in horror: "Beast demon, it's the beast demon coming......

A piercing and cruel screeching sound came from the south of the small town, and puffs of smoke and dust suddenly rose from the calm fields in the distance, like a thousand charging warriors, rushing inexorably. From far and near, the shouts mixed with excited roaring voices swarmed with bloodthirsty desires, and the five members of the Ghost King Sect standing at the other end of the small city all took off into the air and flew towards the small city.

Flying closer, Rao is people had already seen countless big scenes, but the sight in front of them still made them change color slightly. Countless monsters and mutated monsters roared out of the smoke and dust on the field, their huge bodies, sturdy bodies, sharp teeth and claws, exuding a strong intent of death in the early morning light. And the residents of the small town on the other side are panicked and running wildly, but no one knows where to go safely?

The dense running sound grew closer and louder, and finally reached the point of deafening, and more and more beasts and demons poured in from the south, rushing towards the small city. The ancient roads on the field and the wide land on both sides of the road have become a paradise for these beasts and demons at this moment, and the red-eyed monsters surrounded this small city in the earth-shattering roar, and the poor people who had no time to escape into the city were swallowed up by the smoke and dust raised by the monsters in a blink of an eye, and there were blood flashes in the gray mist, and there were screams coming out, and then they were annihilated.

At the head of the small city, some people who still barely had the will to survive tried their best to pull up the drawbridge of the city gate, temporarily blocking these fierce and cruel beasts from the city, and then the beasts and demons seemed to come from the south endlessly, surrounding the small city.

The five people in the sky all gasped.

In the distance, there was a loud roar, the sound sounded sharp and piercing, and it was actually a somewhat sonorous sound, as if it rushed through the smoke and dust in the sky. The Ghost King's expression changed, and he said in a low voice, "Here, it should be this demon beast, everyone be careful and act according to the original plan. 」

The rest of the people nodded slightly, and then dispersed, only the ghost king remained in the air, glanced at the screaming voice a few more times, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then his body flew upward, disappeared into the sky and clouds, and disappeared.

As the scream grew louder and louder, the countless monsters that surrounded the small city shouted at the same time, and all kinds of harsh sounds were mixed together, mixed with the smell of beasts and the faint smell of blood in the wind, which made people feel creepy.

In the smoke and dust, there was a sudden roar, the scream stopped abruptly, and the brilliance flashed in the air, and I saw a huge body, like a tiger-like demon beast jumping out of the smoke and dust. From a distance, this monster beast is shaped like a tiger, and even there seems to be a faint word "king" on its forehead, but its body is not known to be many times larger than that of an ordinary tiger, with sharp teeth and claws, and the fur on its body is even more colorful, and the most peculiar thing is that the tail behind it is extremely long, and it seems to be much longer than the body. The ferocious monsters around it looked like kittens and puppies compared to it.

The ghost, who was hidden outside the city, frowned and whispered, "Woo!" (Note 1).

The small city surrounded by the beasts was originally just a small city on a small scale, and this demon beast with a body of five or six feet tall stood in front of the city, and the tiger's head was almost all constructed above the city. The heavy smell of fish blew with the wind, and the people on the city wall were either frightened and stupid, or they were lost and fled for their lives.

He roared twice, his eyes flashing with fierceness, and he let out a scream, raised his thick forefoot, and smashed directly into the city gate. The sharp claws of the tiger easily pierced the city gate made of thick wood, and before the civilians who were struggling to resist behind the gate could not react to what was going on, several of them had already been pierced by the huge tiger claws, and the rest of the people were terrified and fled in all directions.

After a few loud bangs, "boom, boom, boom", the broken city gate collapsed, and the whole city cried in an instant, and the excited roar outside the city also sounded immediately, and countless fierce beasts swarmed in, and in the blink of an eye, it was bloody and rainy.

It opened the gate for the other monsters, but he didn't go in to kill, as if it didn't bother to do such a thing, and at this time, it seemed to have found something, the tiger's head turned, its huge body slowly twisted, and its nose kept sniffing into the air, as if trying to determine something.

Just when he was hesitating to look for it, suddenly from the city wall in front of it, there was a loud bang, and the city wall suddenly cracked, and the Cangsong Daoist broke out of the hole, and appeared right in front of him, and a yellow sword in his hand hit his chest with lightning speed.

Wu let out an earth-shattering roar, and the entire huge tiger body flew backwards and flew out, but after all, Cangsong Daoren is a figure who has been famous for many years, and he is the first person in the world today.

If it were an ordinary monster, this wound would have killed him on the spot, but Shu Wu was obviously different from the ordinary monsters around him, as one of the thirteen demon beasts under the Beast Demon Seat, its vitality and demon magic were far from being comparable to other ordinary monsters. Although the blood in his chest flowed out like a spring, he didn't even look at it, roared angrily, and pounced in the blink of an eye, looking at the movement of the body, which was not much slower than before the injury.

Cangsong Daoren's face changed slightly, his body flashed, dodging the claws smashed by Shuwu, and the sword quickly left the beast herd and flew towards the north of the small city.

Cangsong Dao people wanted to quickly fly to the nameless hill, and then work with a few other people to get rid of this demon beast, but they flew less than half the distance, only to feel that the wind behind them was loud, and the fishy wind and heat were almost behind their heads. Cangsong Daoist was shocked, looked back in a hurry, and was surprised, only to see that the speed of this Wu Wu was incredibly fast, after being injured, his four feet were like flying, like a storm and lightning, and he actually caught up with the Cangsong Daoist who was flying with a sword.

Chasing behind the Cangsong Dao people, Wu Wu did not hesitate, yelled and opened his big mouth to bite down, seeing that the posture did not bite the Cangsong Dao people into two pieces, it was really difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart. But after all, Cangsong Daoist has been practicing for many years, and he is not panicked at the critical moment, his body sinks down violently, and he narrowly escaped the doom of being buried in the tiger's mouth when he can't afford it. Rao is like this, and Cangsong Dao people also broke out in a cold sweat.

Next, Cangsong Daoren no longer dared to be careless, and drove the fairy sword up and down, moving left and right, so that Shu Wu could not run in a straight line to exert his incredible speed, and then he ran dangerously in front of the maple forest on the hill, and at this time, Shu Wu had been led away from the herd of countless monsters for some distance.

Seeing the sound of Cangsong Dao and his body disappearing into the red maple forest, he became even more angry and rushed straight into the maple forest. But the moment it stepped on the clearing in front of the maple forest, suddenly Mr. Ghost's black figure appeared, chanting a spell in a low voice, and after a while, his whole body was covered in black, and a strange spiritual power slowly emanated from him.

He slammed his footsteps, and the huge momentum inertia made it still slide forward a few feet, knocking down more than a dozen maple trees, but he suddenly didn't care about the woods under him or even the Cangsong Daoist who disappeared just now, and only the black figure floating around him and the strange spiritual power emanating from his body suddenly didn't care about it.

And this time, Wu Wu didn't even rush forward again, the huge tiger head flicked, but when he saw it roar, he opened his mouth wide, and three black smoke floated out of its mouth, and quickly condensed into three hideous skeletons holding big knives in mid-air, and pounced on Mr. Ghost with teeth and claws.

Mr. Ghost's body shook slightly, this demon beast is not only fierce and fast, but it also has strange witchcraft in southern Xinjiang, which is really not to be underestimated.

However, Mr. Oni did not stop casting his spell to avoid the witchcraft skeletons that he sacrificed, and sure enough, at the moment when the three skeletons rushed in front of him, the figure flickered, and Yuhime and Oni Li flew out from both sides, blocking Mr. Oni. Yu Ji's hands are intertwined, holding the strange law seal, the palm of the hand is positive and the other is reversed, which is completely different from the magic seal of the Middle Earth Buddhism, and a beam of silver light appeared in the palm of the palm in a moment, quickly enlarged against a skeleton, the skeleton as if it was burned, a violent shock, and when it was about to rush, the skeleton of the whole body suddenly spread out, and it was the spell that was broken by the "Vermilion Bird Seal" of Yu Ji.

On the other end, Ghost Li's face was indifferent, facing the two fierce skeletons killed in front of him, his right hand flipped over, and the Soul Eater wand appeared in his hand, but this time he did not sacrifice the Blood Devouring Bead as his head as usual, on the contrary, he strangely turned the black rod like a burning stick upside down, and rushed forward with a blue-black rod.

The two skeletons slashed down at the same time, but before they reached three feet around the black rod, under the urging of the ghostly strange true law, the black rod suddenly lit up with a red light around the body, and the rod body was shining, and the black gas surged, which was even more ghostly than the two skeletons, and in a blink of an eye, the two sides collided together, and the ghostly black rod penetrated into the demon body of the two skeletons like cutting tofu, and the black gas surged, and after a while, the two skeletons opened their mouths wide, but they couldn't make any sound, and they dissipated silently, and the remaining little black gas was also sucked in by the black rod.

In addition to the blood-devouring beads of the great murderous thing, the original soul of the rod body is the ancestor of these ghost things and demon methods, and it is also a natural nemesis.

I obviously didn't expect these people to be able to break their witchcraft so easily, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and at this time, Mr. Ghost had completed his practice, his arms shook, and a red light fell from the sky, it was Fu Longding who was sacrificed by him, only to see that the sky was red in an instant, and there were faint birds singing in the red light, and the sound was poignant, and the power seemed to be greater than back then.

The red light descended like a curtain, and when he landed, he caged him in it. I only felt as if there was a big mountain pressing on my body in the blink of an eye, and I was almost out of breath, but the demon beasts of southern Xinjiang have always been beastly and fierce, and I was in deep adversity, but I was even more annoyed, roaring and struggling with my life.

At this moment, the figure on Fulongding flashed, and the ghost king fell from the sky, flying down in the red light of Fulongding like lightning.

I seemed to be aware of it, and raised my head in anger, but the ghost king had reached the top of its head, and with a long roar, I saw the red light trembling and dazzling, and the periphery couldn't see the scene clearly, and I only vaguely saw the ghost king's figure flickering, and something suddenly appeared in his hand, and he shot straight down, hitting the door of my head.

After a while, the red light gradually quieted down, and the mysterious thing in the ghost king's hand disappeared, but the original glorious fur of the ghost king suddenly dimmed, and all the seven orifices on the tiger's head flowed blood. The Ghost King let out a long laugh, and his right hand slammed down, plunging into the hard skull of the Devil King.

He let out an earth-shattering roar, shook his body a few times, and finally collapsed without support.

Note 1: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the North of the Sea" Shuwu: The Lin family has a rare beast, big as a tiger, five picks are complete, the tail is longer than the body, the name is called Shuwu, and the day is thousands of miles.

Another note: "Gods and Demons and Monsters" Shu Wu: There are strange beasts in the southern Xinjiang of Shenzhou, which look like tigers, with colorful fur and long tails, commanding hundreds of beasts, and calling for the king of all beasts.
