One month later.
Nanami.
The once-rumored matter of Jinlu Island's fall into the devil's path has finally been determined.
The former deputy leader of the Seven Seas Alliance and the leader of Golden Tortoise Island, Master Biyang fell into the devil's path. At the same time, he was linked to the deputy leader of Jinjing Island, including Chihaihou Lin Yuanyang, the deputy leader of Jinjing Island. The scope spread to the entire Seven Seas Inland Sea.
Later, the Seven Seas Alliance sent elders and generals of the Water Dragon clan to Jinjing Island to suppress the unrest. With the assistance of the major forces of the Seven Seas Alliance, the situation finally began to improve and the problem was resolved.
Jin Turtle Island fell into the devil's path, and twenty-seven people above the true king were killed, including twenty-three people including Zhenren Biyang and the Marquis of Chihai Lin Yuanyang.
The remaining four people fled overseas, and the Water Dragon Clan was responsible for hunting them down.
Meanwhile, another month.
The Golden Turtle Strait, which is a major transportation artery for the two major water systems of the inland sea and the outer sea, was finally repaired and rebuilt after being closed for three months. The water dragon clan was responsible for it, and it was reopened and tax-free for March.
It didn't take too long for the long-depressed sea area to once again be joined by thousands of sails, fighting for the flow, and returning to the sea.
Under the sunny weather, at the rebuilt Golden Turtle Wharf, the porters loading and unloading goods had smiles on their faces. While sitting and relaxing, they drank the free seaweed tea and discussed the new water transportation regulations that were announced not long ago. , calculating how much more they can earn.
Maybe it can be doubled!" A porter who was literate and once worked as an accounting apprentice in Mipu said coldly.
No way?
How can this be?
Just talking, everyone got up excitedly and scrambled to start unloading and loading goods.
Yizhou.
The situation here is not as clear as Qi Hai. The previous hunting operations did not improve the situation.
In the grain area of Chongbei Province, the new season's rice has not yet matured, making food more scarce. Even though the government organized several warehouse openings to release grain to stabilize grain prices, it still had to create a situation where grain had a price but no market, and grain prices rose on the black market. Ten times the situation.
Although the sea festival incident that had been rumored among the people had subsided for a while, it soon returned to its old ways, and even involved some real Zhenjun bosses, overtly and covertly, and launched various searches. In addition, Mingjiao had previously , various locations launched destructive revenge on the God Catching Gate, which seemed to have initiated some kind of signal, causing some vicious events to continue to occur.
Even Wanyi City has implemented a curfew, and a special sergeant Zhou Sheng patrols at night. At this time, there is the Jinshan Mountain Range outside Wanyi City.
It rained continuously and the sky was gloomy.
In these high mountains, the wet feet and the inexplicable roars coming from all around made people even more bored.
A cave.
The entrance to the cave is hidden, with messy claw marks on the ground. In the corner, there are piles of bones and a few clumps of spiritual grass.
There was a pungent smell coming from the depths. This cave should be a bear weapon. It should be quite big. To occupy such a position in the Jinshan Mountains, it must be at least a beast king level existence.
But at this moment, the beast king fell to the side. On his huge body, there was a huge wound on his chest that forcibly separated his entire bear body. The ferocious wound had rotted away and attracted countless ants and insects to eat him. Climb.
big.
The palm in the wide cuff holds a strange snake-shaped seven-headed poem.
At the same time, it emits an indescribably disgusting breath.
The most terrifying thing is the scene illuminated by a glimmer of light deep inside the cave entrance.
People in red robes sat on the ground with their legs spread apart, their heads lowered. There were strange patterns on their faces painted with red blood or paint. Two people in black stood in the middle.
Both of them are old men with wrinkled faces and dark eyes, but they are extremely tall. The seven-headed gong has a snake mouth and a sharp twisted tail with dark twisted patterns printed on it.
The blade was glowing with a faint light, and seemed to have some kind of thrilling magic power.
Wusheng Old Mother... Two old men in Vacuum Hometown sighed softly, their voices hoarse, like the sound of fingernails scratching glass.
Then his eyes showed piety
, the seven songs in his hand pierced his body at once.
There was a puff, extremely transparent, and the strength must be quite strong.
Just listening to it, one can imagine the sound of the seven songs scratching the skin, cutting the muscles and cutting the blood vessels.
A large amount of blood immediately sprinkled on the ground.
"With my blood, the grave-painting mother returns to the vacuum with my thoughts.
With the long and complicated chants, the two old men released their hands holding Qi Song, and at the same time, they used the splash of blood to smear and outline the traces of evil on the ground.
As the traces became complete, it was vaguely visible that it was a portrait of a woman. As the portrait became more complete and clearer, the people in red robes who were sitting with their legs crossed slowly began to raise their heads, their eyes gradually turned red, and their faces became even more... With bulging veins, he also started stabbing his own body with his hair, screaming like crazy.
At this time, the faces of these red-robed men had just been revealed. They were young faces no more than twenty years old, but now their little faces stained with blood were full of ferocity.
He also chanted small, sacrificial eulogies in his mouth.
It sounds convoluted, but when you listen carefully it makes your heart chill.
He Youde has been in the world for decades. He has seen everything about car and boat shops, people's hearts are sinister, and he has seen the tricks of ghosts. Naturally, he knows that this is some kind of evil ritual!
And these people must also be those extremely dangerous evil cultists!
Once discovered, it will definitely be a death sentence.
If he could, he would have escaped long ago.
But the key is that he is not alone at this time. He has his daughter by his side. Who would have thought that the three of them, father and daughter, came to hunt bear bile and brew medicinal wine, and finally found their way into a bear den. How could there be such a lion inside? With an ugly face, he glanced at the two daughters in front of him.
They were also dressed in powerful attire, carrying crossbows on their backs, and were sprinkled with special medicine that concealed Qi.
Even the shoes on the feet are covered with a layer of animal hair to muffle sounds.
Ready to go.
It's just that the two men, who usually hunt bears and tigers and are no weaker than men, looked panicked and at a loss when they saw this scene.
He Youdao said nothing, sighed softly in his heart, took a deep breath, and patted his two daughters on the shoulders.
Then he gently touched his leg and pointed outside the hole.
Any sound made at this time will soar.
After years of hunting, father and daughter already had a good understanding of each other, and they immediately understood what to do next.
The eldest daughter was in front, and the younger daughter He Youdao was behind. The three of them bent over and tiptoed out.
Observing carefully, the movements of the three of them looked like mice carrying rice back to their burrows, making almost no sound.
This is the rat walk that is unique to Heyou Taoism. It was originally passed down from male to female, but in this generation, Zhao Di and Wang Di both gave birth to a cub and could not raise a cub. In order to avoid having no successors, they had to hold it in the end. Identify by nose.
Fortunately, his two daughters were extremely talented, which gave him some comfort.
One step, two steps,
One step, two steps.
I didn’t dare to take a breath, and practiced every breath repeatedly.
finally.
The cave entrance is getting closer and closer, and the light is getting brighter and brighter.
The sound of rain hitting the leaves gradually became louder than the weird chanting. It was not until they took the last step and stepped on the wet forest floor that the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking carefully, even the most experienced He Youdao is soaked in sweat at this moment.
Not to mention the two daughters, their clothes were even soaked with sweat, and their legs and feet were trembling.
But just when the two of them wanted to rest for a moment, He Youdao shook his head and continued to move forward.
From what he had just observed, those evil people were so weird that he could not see through anyone.
There was no guarantee that there would be some evil means to get out of the cave, and it was not safe. The daughters trusted their father and followed every step.
The three of them still remained cautious and soon passed through the forest. At this time, the rain was about to stop, and the sun moved from behind the dark clouds, shedding layers of light.
The bright sunshine falls on
People always make people feel warm.
"Dad...Dad, what on earth is that?" The youngest daughter Huan Didie saw that He Youdao's tense body had also relaxed, and she breathed a sigh of relief. She patted her not-so-full chest and couldn't bear it. asked.
I don’t know, but in this world, there are even weirder things that we can stay away from, especially those in our line of work. He Youdao lowered his voice and said.
Their line of work had actually been prosperous for three generations, and they were the most famous catchers in the God Catching Sect. However, during an important mission, the mission failed due to an accident.
The result of the failure was very tragic. According to the rules, he was beheaded, so he had to escape. Fortunately, those former colleagues also acquiesced and did not investigate in detail, so they were able to remain anonymous and pass on.
But it also changed from hunting people to hunting animals.
As the Yang tide recovers, there are more and more good things in the mountains, and life has become much easier these days.
Okay, if we have bad luck this time, let’s go back and find a better day before heading into the mountains again. "He whispered.
As he spoke, he moved but the two daughters in front of him were standing still, as if their feet were rooted.
He Youdao frowned, "You guys..." Before he could finish his words, his heart suddenly stopped, as if he realized something, he suddenly looked back.
From here, you can see the deep shadows of the trees in the forest over there, and in front of the patches of shrubs is the hidden cave.
Everything is so normal.
Nothing at all.
He Youdao felt relieved, then angry.
"What are you two doing! Why don't you leave?
Because they have seen Wusheng Old Mother, and you, have you seen it?"
Suddenly, a nervous voice sounded behind him.
"???" He Youdao turned around suddenly, and one meter behind him, in front of his two daughters, there was an extra person.
A tall old man in black robe!
There was a weird smile on his wrinkled face, and the seven snake-shaped swords were stuck in his chest, standing in front of his two daughters.
Then, with their hands stained with blood, they painted some meaningless lines and weird patterns on their faces.
Both the eldest daughter, Zhaodi, and the second daughter, Huaidi, stood blankly on the spot, their Adam's apple rolling, and it took a long time to hold back a word.
"Dad..." He looked like he was about to cry.
"You... Your Excellency... we haven't seen anything... Can you let me wait for a way to survive? What price are we willing to pay?" He gritted his teeth and whispered.
Have you seen Wusheng Old Mother? The old man asked with a weird smile still on his face.
He said and pointed at himself.
....·Wusheng Old Mother He Youdao was stunned for a moment, then she quickly reacted and said, "I saw it, I saw it...
Brother Tao, Wusheng Mother has just issued a decree to me, asking me, my father and my daughter to leave immediately for the outside world to complete a task. Please allow Brother Tao to let me go!
As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and chanted "Silent Mother, Vacuum Hometown".
"Chek Kok, he thinks you are a fool. Suddenly, another voice came from behind.
It was another old man in black, He Youdao, who was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but look up.
The old man who originally had a nervous smile on his face turned calm now. How do you know that I didn't treat him as a fool?" the old man said calmly.
"Is there no one around?"
"No, it seems that this little guy accidentally found us. We thought he was the one who caught the door, but our efforts were in vain."
The newly appeared old man said in a deep voice.
It's not in vain, the two little girls here were actually born in the yin year and yin time and can be used usefully. ” Chijiao touched He Zhaodi and the two people beside him.
The two of them were in good shape and good-looking, and their trembling appearance made people feel pity for them, but at this moment, there was no lust in his eyes.
There was only a touch of heat, as if I had seen something cherished.
"Do you really want to kill the fish? We are obviously willing to vote..." He Youdao looked sad when he saw this.
However, before he finished speaking, his hands moved violently, and two small silver arrays suddenly slipped out of his sleeves. Three crossbow arrows emerged from the sound.
However, at this moment, He Youdao was stunned. He felt that the irregular lines in front of him seemed to come alive, and their shapes changed between human and animal forms.
Then jumped in front of him.
He subconsciously raised his hand to block it, but at this moment, Silver Horn behind him suddenly stepped forward, pulled out the snake-shaped head from his chest and stabbed it in his chest.
puff!
Blood spilled all over the ground.
He Youdao froze, the small silver box in his hand fell to the ground, and he knelt heavily on the ground.
Dad has a silly smile on his face!" The eldest daughter Zhao Di and the younger daughter Wang Di were stunned. Seeing the miserable condition of their father, they burst into tears and wanted to resist.
It was a pity that Jinjiao casually hit Fujia's father in the lower back, causing him to collapse to the ground.
"The cleverness of a weakling is really ridiculous." Seeing this step, Yinjiao said in a disdainful tone.
Okay, let’s arrange the ceremony somewhere else. The dogs at the God's Gate are watching closely to prevent anything from happening. "Jinjiao said calmly.
He Zhaodi and He Wangdi, who had been knocked to the ground, were struggling to get up and looked at the two of them with hatred.
I like the look in your eyes. Red Kok laughed loudly and prepared to lift the two of them up with one hand.
Are you feeling good?
Suddenly, a voice came from the forest.
Red Horn and Silver Horn turned back sharply.
At the entrance of the link, there was actually another person, like a wall, appearing silently, just standing there with his hands behind his back.
