Overnight, dead bodies no longer scare people and have become a sought-after commodity. If a dead body had appeared before, it might have caused people to scream and be frightened.
But now, after the corpse appears, of course, it will still cause people to scream, but this is not a scream of fear, but a scream of excitement.
Because as long as a dead body appears, it means that the God of Wealth is coming and is about to make a fortune.
Therefore, as soon as they heard that a dead body had appeared somewhere, countless monks' eyes lit up and they swarmed in, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
At the beginning, dead corpses were not so popular. Although many people knew that the black stones in dead corpses could enhance their skills, for the vast majority of strong men, it was of little use. Their requirements for the black stones of dead corpses were not that high. eager.
However, when You Dao Tong bought the corpse black stone at a high price, the whole situation suddenly changed. The corpse black stone suddenly became popular, and the price was rising steadily, especially under the instigation of some caring people. The price of corpse black stone has skyrocketed to a certain level.
"I heard that the black stone of the corpse has a great relationship with the immortal stone." Suddenly, a rumor came out in Mingluo City, saying: "The black stone in the corpse is the corner of the immortal stone. It is precisely because these corpses swallowed the immortal stone The scraps from the leftovers will allow them to be resurrected from the dead. Rumor has it that the immortal stone of Shiyun Taoism was left by an immortal and can lead to immortality..."
When such gossip spread, the entire Mingluo City became even more crazy. Some of the Taoist ancestors who had been on the sidelines before joined the ranks of accumulating dead bodies and black stones.
As long as the mystery of immortality is involved, any Taoist ancestor and any old immortal true god will not be able to calm down. Of course, they who are dying want immortality more than anyone else.
It is precisely because many Taoist ancestors have joined the ranks of accumulating corpse black stones that the price of corpse black stones has soared overnight, and the price has reached the extreme.
With interests, there are disputes, so whenever a dead body appears, it will lead to a fight and a lot of friction. Many strong monks will fight for the black stone of the dead body.
There is even crazy gossip spreading in Mingluo City, saying: "If you take the corpse black stone, as long as you take a large enough amount, you will live longer..."
All of a sudden, various gossips spread wildly in Mingluo City. In short, the dead body that initially made people scream in terror has now attracted many people to be excited and screamed.
Li Qiye didn't ask about anything in the Copper Palace. He closed his eyes and meditated there, wandering in a daze. When Li Qiye heard the news that the black stone of dead corpses could increase his power and prolong his life, he smiled and said lightly: "They don't know whether to live or die. When the time comes, they will know what fish on the chopping board is."
"Could it be that the corpse black stone is poisonous?" Wu Youzheng was surprised, but thinking about the evil aura of the corpse black stone, he felt it was not impossible.
"I don't know if it's poisonous or not." Li Qiye said calmly: "However, this is not wrong. This thing is indeed a bit tonic. It can indeed increase one's skill and prolong life."
"What kind of sequelae does it have?" Wu Youzheng also heard the news. Nowadays, a corpse black stone is worth a sky-high price on the market. If he really encounters a corpse, he can make a lot of money.
"You are fishing, do you want bait?" Li Qiye glanced at Wu Youzheng and said calmly.
Wu Youzheng was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses. He suddenly understood what Li Qiye said. He was shocked and couldn't help but screamed, "Young master, this, this corpse black stone..."
Thinking of the terrifying evil aura when Li Qiye rubbed away the black stone of the dead body, Wu Youzheng couldn't help but shudder, and the hair on his body stood on end.
Li Qiye said nothing and slowly closed his eyes, as if falling asleep.
Dead corpses became extremely popular overnight, and the supply of dead corpse black stones suddenly exceeded demand. Therefore, when a dead corpse appeared, it was immediately divided up by the strong, and others could not even touch the fur.
I don’t know the reason. It might be because too many corpses were killed, or it might be that the corpses were frightened. Therefore, there were fewer and fewer corpses appearing in Mingluo City. Within two days, Mingluo It's hard to see even one or two dead bodies in the city.
"Oh, it seems that we have killed all the dead bodies." Many people sighed after searching for a long time but not finding a single dead body.
Although no one found a dead body, no one gained anything, and everyone could only sigh or complain, but nothing could be done. It cannot be said that a dead body was conjured out of thin air.
Just when many people thought that the corpses had been completely killed and the corpse crisis was about to pass, suddenly, someone in Mingluo City gave an order.
"Seal the city -" overnight, the unparalleled and powerful Immortal God in Mingluo City issued an order, saying: "Drove all the residents and monks of Mingluo City together."
After the order was given, the sound of "roll, roll, roll" was heard to seal the city. The local residents and monks of Mingluo City were immediately driven away by a group of strong men, and all of them were driven and imprisoned to a place in the city.
"What are you going to do? There is no king's law." In a short period of time, all the local residents and monks in Mingluo City were imprisoned in the same place. Some people wanted to escape, but it was already too late.
In the blink of an eye, all the local residents and monks in Mingluo City became prisoners. Even if some people wanted to resist, it was of no avail, because the monks in Minluo City were limited in strength, and they were simply unable to fight against these strong men.
"What happened?" Seeing someone suddenly sealing off the city, many foreign monks and strongmen in Mingluo City couldn't help but be surprised.
"Hey, you guys are being too domineering." Some strong monks from outside couldn't help but speak out when they saw these people hunting down local residents and monks in Mingluo City.
After all, Mingluo City still belongs to the local residents, and the foreign monks are still guests. It would be too much to suddenly hunt them down like this.
"Hmph, what, do you have any objections?" These strong men who hunted down the local residents and monks of Mingluo City were not good at all. They immediately glared at the people who spoke uprightly and showed their cards.
"Kemen is working here, don't make mistakes." The other party said coldly, with an arrogant attitude.
"You——" The monk who spoke upright couldn't help but feel angry, but his companion immediately pulled him away.
When the group of strong men walked away, his companion reminded him and said in a low voice: "Kemeng, it's better not to mess with it, otherwise it will lead to death. Kemeng, that is not something to be trifled with. Although they are not as domineering or high-profile as Zangjindong, once they take action, they are very terrifying and they will destroy any enemy with lightning speed."
Although this monk who is determined to speak out is a little resentful, he is stronger than others, so what can he do? To be honest, he really cannot afford to offend the Hakka Alliance, even the most powerful sect in their tradition. You can't afford to offend Kemen either.
While the people of Ke Meng were going around capturing local residents and monks in Mingluo City, a rumor spread in Mingluo City, saying: "Ke Meng will be executed at the gate of the city tomorrow. It's fun to watch."
"Execution, why should we execute the local residents and monks of Mingluo City? They are so weak, it is impossible to offend the guest alliance." Some people were surprised.
"Fishing." A strong man suddenly understood the mystery, his face changed, and he said: "Dead corpses are bloodthirsty. They will suck people's blood every time they appear. The guest alliance wants to target the local residents and monks of Mingluo City. Come as bait, bleed them, and lure the dead bodies to appear.”
"Bloodletting -" After hearing this, many people understood it immediately. Many people gasped, their faces changed drastically, and they whispered: "This is a blood sacrifice in disguise."
Many people look bad when they hear the word "blood sacrifice". The word "blood sacrifice" is very taboo. Once this word appears, it will often be thought of as heretical and evil.
Now that an alliance like Kemeng actually uses such methods, why shouldn't people be dismayed by this?
"Ke Meng, this is too much." Some foreign monks felt that this was too much and couldn't help complaining.
"The benefits are touching people's hearts." An ancestor gently shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it was the orders from the top of the guest league. Most people don't dare to give such orders. You know, Lu Keweng is very old. , in the imperial lineage world, in terms of age, there are probably few who are older than him, and his lifespan is not long. If the dead black stone can really extend life, hey, hey, the guest alliance will also be there No matter what..."
Lu Keweng, this is the leader of the Ke League.
"Blood sacrifice, this is a very taboo thing." A strong man couldn't help but murmured, "This is a demonic way. If it is not done well, it will arouse public outrage."
"So, the Ke Meng will take action against the local residents and monks of Mingluo City and use them as bait?" An ancestor said slowly: "In the entire Shiyun Taoism, there is not even a Climbing Heavenly God, so what are you using them for?" Come to fight against the Kemeng? I’m afraid no one will make an enemy of the Kemeng for the mere sake of Shiyun Taoism.”
"That's right." Although some people felt that this was too much, they had no choice but to smile bitterly.
Today's Shiyun Taoist tradition is in decline. Even if the Guest League sacrifices tens of thousands of lives in Mingluo City, no one in the Shiyun Taoist tradition can save them.
Moreover, the declining Shiyun Taoism had no allies outside the country, so who would stand up to them?
If it were other powerful Taoist traditions, the Ke Meng would not dare to do this, which would arouse public outrage. However, a weak existence like Shiyun Taoist tradition would be nothing more than meat on the chopping block, and no one would stand up for them. Honest words.
