Chapter 116: Weirdness and Killing
The thirty-fourth pass of Longmen, the territory of Jiangshenbao, the Qianliu River Basin!
Yuan Yi stood invisibly, his brows furrowed tightly, obviously a little puzzled.
At this time, it has been a day since he set off from Jiangshen Peak, and the scorching sun is shining at this moment, and it is noon.
The place where he now rests is called "Sanjiangtan", which is a small body of water formed by the confluence of three small rivers.
As for the things that puzzled him, it was the scene he often saw on the road, patrolling the bandits, and wantonly searching for monks, trying to restrain people's heads.
As far as Yuan Yi knew, although Jiangshen Fort occupied the Qianliu River Domain within a radius of five hundred miles, its power was not very large, and the number of bandits was not too much, but it was only nearly three hundred Qi Condensators and three Foundation Building Cultivators, but the strange thing was that those three were all mid-stage cultivators!
As he read this, he suddenly remembered a rumor.
I heard that Huangjin Mountain and Jiuhuazhai are old enemies, and the Jiangshen Fort here seems to be independent, but it is actually a branch of Huangjin Mountain, which is placed in the Shanglongmen area and used to clamp a nail in the development of Jiuhuazhai.
If this rumor is true, then everything makes sense, why when he was in the Yellow Turban Mountain, the foundation building thieves he encountered were all in the early and late stages, but there was no middle one, it turned out that they were those people who were placed here to prevent their great enemy Jiuhua Village.
Thinking about it like this, he thought back to the matter in front of him, and it was obvious that it was the bandits from all sides of the other forces in Longmen who were now assisting Jiangshenbao in patrolling, searching for enemies, and killing people, and it was Jiangshenbao who borrowed the influence of Yellow Turban Mountain and invited assistants from all directions.
But Yuan Yi thought about it carefully, but he had deeper doubts, he was sure that with the prestige and strength of Yellow Turban Mountain alone, even if it ranked in the top three, it would definitely not be able to do such a scale.
If so, what kind of changes have happened, and will such changes cause a major obstacle to his journey?
Thinking about it like this, he suddenly felt uneasy about such a strange and unclear situation.
He also wanted to find someone to understand, so soon after entering this place, he rescued a group of people who were about to be killed.
Then, he wanted to ask the rescued people for some information, but he didn't expect those people to disperse in a hurry, as if Yuan Yi had done a heinous thing, so he was afraid that he would be involved, and he wanted to leave him in a panic.
This made his heart cold, and when he encountered a similar situation, he watched coldly and did not intervene rashly.
He also thought about forcing the thieves to obtain information, but since he killed the bandits, all he encountered on the road were a large group, and he secretly thought about it for a while, feeling uncertain, so he didn't attack again.
So, until now, he has been walking silently, ignoring idle things, and being cautious all the way, always hanging on the courage of his heart, and cautiously on guard, in case he is careless, and suddenly makes some small mistakes, so he is surrounded and killed by a group of enemies, and falls into the point of no return.
Now, he stood at the head of the Sanjiang Beach, looking at the bubbling water, while looking down and thinking to himself.
At this moment, the sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded, and from the position in front of it, dozens of patrolling bandits flew in.
Yuan Yi's heart froze, and he immediately stopped thinking, and at the same time restrained the breath of his whole body, and then looked forward with his eyes.
I saw that the people who came were three groups of thieves with different costumes, obviously belonging to different forces, and there were as many as thirteen or fourteen in each group, except for the thieves of Jiangshen Fort who were wearing blue clothes, the other two groups were wearing black shirts and green robes.
As far as Yuan Yi knew, those green-robed bandits belonged to the Ghost Shadow Gorge in the Lower Dragon Gate, while those black-robed monks belonged to the Heavenly Demon Cave in the Middle Dragon Gate.
I don't know how the thieves of the Ghost Shadow Gorge and the Heavenly Demon Cave could run so far and suddenly come to this Jiangshenbao force that belongs to Shanglongmen.
Yuan Yi thought about it like this, and the sound of the three bandits had broken through the air for a while, and then they all stopped.
I saw that the leader of Jiangshenbao suddenly said: "Brother Zheng, Brother Zhu, the place has arrived." These three river beaches, no matter which road you take, are all places that must be passed, so it is a good place to hunt people's heads and complete tasks. ”
Hearing this, the leader of the black-shirted bandits looked around, nodded, and said, "What Brother Jiang said is extremely true! This is indeed a good killing field!"
The leader of the green-robed bandits also looked around, suddenly frowned, and said, "Brother Jiang, could it be that the preparation of the past three days, the number of hundreds of heads gathered is not enough for the god sacrifice ceremony of Guibao?"
The leader of the blue-suited bandits didn't rush to answer, he just made a few gestures, and after issuing a few orders, he turned around and looked at the two people beside him.
So, with a few orders from the three of them, all the bandits moved one after another and hid around.
In a few moments, they were all gone, and now there were only three leaders left on the field.
At this time, Yuan Yi had already seen that the three of them were all young people, and the monks were all in the tenth-layer realm of condensation.
But at this moment, the blue-clothed young man surnamed Jiang shook his head and said, "Brother Zheng's doubt, I am also puzzled. According to the custom of worshipping the gods in previous years, a hundred heads were sufficient. I don't know why there are so many of them this year. But since it is an order issued above, I think they have a certain idea, and we, as subordinates, will try our best to complete it no matter what!"
When the green-robed young man surnamed Zheng heard this, he immediately frowned, obviously dissatisfied with this answer, so he took a big mouth and was about to ask again.
At this moment, the black-shirted young man surnamed Zhu suddenly said:
"Brother Zheng, don't be so curious, not to mention that the number of human head sacrifices this year is unusual, it is our Longmen allies who were invited to the appointment, and the number of them is much more than in previous years, and similar to the leaders of the Heavenly Demon Cave, Ghost Shadow Gorge and other forces like us, those foundation-building level existences have even left many important things to come here, and some of them are even like us, joining this operation of searching for monks and hunting for human heads.
As long as you have a brain, you can guess with a little thought that there must be some big reason for such a big action. However, our kind of condensation realm, which exists like ants, has not yet understood the capital of such a cause.
Therefore, Brother Zheng, for the sake of our friendship for so many years, I would like to advise you here, it is better to suppress your curiosity, lest one accidentally come into contact with such forbidden things, and thus bring such a disaster of killing yourself!"
When the green-robed young man surnamed Zheng heard this, his heart suddenly sank, and then he bowed to the black-shirted young man surnamed Zhu, and thanked him: "Thank you Brother Zhu for reminding me!"
And the blue-robed young man surnamed Jiang was smiling and looking at the green-robed young man surnamed Zheng Shi Wei next to him, listening to the discussion of the black-shirted young man surnamed Zhu, and did not say a word of advisability.
After a while, the green-robed young man surnamed Zheng changed the topic and took the initiative to talk about other things, and the other two immediately joined in when they heard this, and then they discussed fiercely.
Yuan Yi listened to the next words of the three of them, and found that they were talking about the affairs of bandits who suddenly grabbed someone and a certain treasure at a certain time and place, but there was no useful information.
At that moment, after knowing that Jiangshenbao was carrying out the ritual of sacrificing to the gods, he urged the Shadowless Wall Magic Weapon, and at the same time ran the Breath Gathering Exercise with all his might, and then walked by the three of them, and quietly crossed the Sanjiang Beach without the three of them noticing, and then continued to walk forward.
Along the way, relying on the method of breathing, the shadowless wall magic weapon, as well as the invisible charm, water escape charm and other talismans, even the foundation building monks who met on the road could not find their traces, so there was no major incident on the way to the original easy, and the journey was very smooth.
At dusk the next day, Yuan Yi arrived at a place, a place called "Shuangshen Pond".
There were two middle-aged men fishing in front of the pool, one with a kind face and the other with a caracal face! Seeing their faces and dresses, Yuan Yi thought about them carefully, and after a while, he recognized them: the one with a kind face is Bai Qi from the Demon Valley of Zhonglongmen Town, and the one with a caracal face is Pi Chu from Qilingzhuang in Shanglongmen.
Although they were two early foundation building monks, Yuan Yi did not panic, but slowly continued to move forward.
In a short time, he was about to pass through the Twin Gods Pool, ready to leave this place.
But at this moment, a sound of breaking the air sounded, and a person flew in from a distance.
Yuan Yi suddenly stopped when he heard the sound, and at the same time turned his head to look, only to see-
