In the eyes of outsiders, Shengmiao is a group of evil and cruel savages who drink blood.
They traveled through the mountains, lived in caves, kept company with wild beasts, believed in evil gods, raised poisonous insects, and even sacrificed people and ate them alive.
Whatever is sensational, what do they do?
It seems that all the evil things in the world can be suppressed on their heads.
In fact, this is actually a certain misunderstanding.
Because the seedlings actually don’t eat humans.
There are plenty of wild animals in the mountains, endless wild fruits and vegetables, and even some farmland they have cultivated, which can provide ample food.
There is no need to eat people.
But apart from not eating people, all other descriptions are true.
These seedlings who live in the mountains and are isolated from the outside world are, in a sense, a group of evil people who are like wild beasts and wear human skin.
However, not everyone can bear this kind of beast-like life.
Therefore, some Miao people chose to move outside the mountains and became known to the outside world as mature Miao.
These mature seedlings accepted the king's culture, learned to farm, settled in the local area, and paid taxes, and they were no different from most Yue people.
Therefore, although the raw seedlings and the mature seedlings come from the same source, apart from the blood relationship, they are actually equivalent to two ethnic groups.
Some are even hostile to each other.
When we see each other on weekdays, we often kill each other, and there is no mercy at all.
Fortunately, although they were split into two ethnic groups, all Miao ethnic groups still retained some of the same customs.
For example, raising Gu insects.
This ability brought from the mountains has not been forgotten by those mature seedlings.
On the contrary, even because of being bullied outside, many mature seedlings have begun to study voodoo as a means of self-protection.
From this, with Gu magic as the connecting point and blood as the cornerstone, a great sect that spreads across the entire Dongting County, the Five Poison Sect, was born.
The main altar of the Five Poison Sect is located among the vast mountains. It has always been hidden and unknown to outsiders.
But there are always some lucky people in the world who are lucky enough to go there and come back alive.
According to their description, the main altar of the Five Poison Sect is a place where flowers bloom. It is a valley with many wooden houses built in it. Many Miao people live in it and enjoy the life of a paradise.
The Miao people in the mountains call it the Valley of All Saints and respect it as a holy place.
This is what people who are good friends with the Five Poisons Sect say.
There is another description circulating in the world.
The main altar of the Five Poison Sect is the most dangerous and evil place in the world. It is full of all kinds of poisonous insects, poisonous flowers, and even terrible miasma.
If you make one wrong step, you will lose your life there.
And it is in such a restricted area of life that there lives a group of Gu masters who practice Gu techniques and can control countless poisonous insects.
These guys are demons in the world. They use living people to raise Gu worms and cultivate all kinds of terrifying and evil existences in the eyes of ordinary people.
The main altar of the Five Poison Sect is also called the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons by those people, and it is regarded as a forbidden area of life, which is prohibitive.
Amid the turmoil, rumors about the Five Poison Sect spread over and over again in the world, adding countless layers of mystery.
In fact, both rumors are correct.
Because this is the Halloween Valley with brilliant flowers and beautiful scenery. It is also a poisonous valley filled with poisonous insects and miasma.
One Saint and One Poison are just two faces of the Five Poison Sect's main altar.
It's just that the perspective of the people watching is different, so the scenery they see is also different.
…
This day.
In the peaceful Ten Thousand Poison Valley, Lan Zhaoyun, the current leader of the Five Poison Sect, is handling academic affairs.
As the leader of a great religion with power throughout Dongting County and millions of followers, the things Lan Zhaoyun has to deal with every day are not much less than those of the feudal officials who transcend people.
Especially in the past few days, their holy religion has launched a major operation, preparing to once again weaken the imperial power in Dongting County and further weaken the local government's control over the area, so as to achieve the goal of the revival of the holy religion.
Yes, the revival of the Holy Religion is the supreme goal of the Five Poison Sect.
In fact, thousands of years ago, when Dongting County was not called Dongting County, it was called the land of Miao territory.
But then the ancestors of the Yue people came here.
They launched one war after another, killing the Miao people who had lived here for generations, or driving them into the mountains, occupying this land that originally belonged to the Miao people.
Now that thousands of years have passed, the hatred of our ancestors has gradually been forgotten by future generations. Even many Miao people have forgotten their origins and think that they originally lived in the mountains.
Only those Yue people outside may occasionally see records in history books that the sages won this territory for them through a glorious southern expedition.
But these blood feuds can be forgotten by the people below, but Lan Zhaoyun and other senior leaders of the Five Poison Sect will not forget them.
Because the establishment of the Five Poison Sect was closely related to the battle to defend the Miao territory.
But that war was ultimately lost.
But the Five Poison Sect was not destroyed. They entered the mountains and went underground, always preparing for revenge.
And now.
The decline of the Yue court was an opportunity for the Five Poison Sect to see. He saw the opportunity to drive away the Yue people and regain his homeland.
"By the time this operation is over, we should be able to seize a lot of Yue people's cities. If we seize the opportunity well, we might even capture a city.
In this way, the Yue government in Dongting County will be severely damaged and the local government will be even more disturbed. "
After finishing an academic assignment, Lan Zhaoyun stretched and couldn't help but think about it.
These days, whenever he was tired from dealing with academic affairs, he would think about this again, and then he would suddenly become full of energy.
This time is no exception.
But just as Lan Zhaoyun was about to continue handling the next academic assignment, a figure from outside hurried in and saluted him.
"The leader."
Lan Zhaoyun raised his head and saw that it was the Right Protector of the sect. He couldn't help but ask: "Right Protector. What's the matter with you?"
The right protector said with a solemn expression: "I have just received news that a new county magistrate has arrived in Wugang County, Shaoyang Prefecture. He has brought five hundred officers and soldiers to take office. As soon as he arrived at the place, he used thunderous means to directly attack the local sects. Gang of thieves.
Later, they sent troops to attack and massacred the Miao people with three surnames outside the city.
Elder Baiyan was sent to Wugang County, where he was preparing to launch an uprising of the three surnamed Miao people, but now there is no movement.
I suspect he might have been killed by those officers and soldiers. "
"Elder Baiyan is dead?"
When Lan Zhaoyun heard the news, his original good mood suddenly disappeared.
The right protector nodded, with an ugly look on his face, and said with cupped hands: "Leader, should we send someone to investigate and confirm the situation. If it is really those officers and soldiers who did it, do we want to take revenge and go back?"
Although there are dozens of second-rate masters of the Five Poison Sect, if spread across the entire Dongting County, there are actually not many.
The sudden loss of one of them at this critical moment was also a bit painful for them.
"revenge……"
Lan Zhaoyun thought for a while and asked, "Are you sure it was an officer or soldier who did it?"
The right protector affirmed: "It's almost the same. I heard from the spies who came back that the new county captain of Wugang County is a second-rate master. The white eye is probably broken in his hands."
"County captain, second-rate master..."
Lan Zhaoyun pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head: "Well, this time he bumped into the hands of the officers and soldiers, it can only be considered unlucky for him. The captain of Dongting County is still there, if our holy religion openly takes action against Yue officials , fearing that it would attract his attention.
Although now the saint has taken the Five Saint Gu and has entered the innate state. But now he is still in retreat and is stabilizing his state.
At this moment, everything is dominated by the Saint, and no extraneous matters can be allowed.
Let this be settled.
Write down the grudge of rolling eyes first. Wait until the saint comes out of seclusion and has a decisive battle with the Yue people, then we can make further calculations. "
After much thought, the leader of the Five Poisons decided to play it safe first.
"yes."
The right protector obeyed the order and left.
