The sky has eyes, but they never open to some people.
——
Somewhere in a deserted mountain, there is a cave full of blood, bones, filth and stench.
"Hurry up, you losers! In a quarter of an hour, the king's food won't be ready yet, so just put yourselves on the table!"
"You idiots! I will starve you to death for a moment."
A half-human, half-dog monster took the lead, followed by several half-transformed little monsters.
They are armed with swords, guns and clubs, showing off their power wherever they go. Swinging it up and down, the weapon made a rapid, noisy, ping-ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong collision sound, which disturbed those who listened.
In front of the monsters, several humans were busy in front of two large pots.
Their clothes are in tatters, they are thin, their faces are withered, their eyes are numb, and their hearts are as gray as death.
A series of skilled, mechanical, and repetitive actions all show the word despair.
The clatter of pots and pans mixed with the clang of weapons, creating a chaotic melody that added to the unpleasantness and harshness.
Yun Tianyue moved quickly in front of a pile of baskets. Wash, cut, and mix various vegetables, fruits, and herbs.
As he moved, his black eyes on the left and white on the right squinted slightly, using a series of movements to hide them, and secretly glanced at the little monsters.
I saw little monsters walking around, showing off their power, and seemed to be very serious and careful.
As I was busy, I naturally wiped my clothes with my hands, and scratched my nails lightly, catching the dust-like things on my clothes. Then, very naturally, I handle those things with my hands. The monsters don't care whether you are hygienic or not, as long as it suits your appetite and tastes good, it's good.
The others lowered their heads, did not even look at him, and were busy with their own business, as if everything had nothing to do with them.
Tianyue learned about it in the years since he was captured here. Everyone was kidnapped by monsters and imprisoned here as slaves.
Some of the people who were captured were sent to help the monsters find treasures; some were sent to do coolies; some stayed in the cave to serve the monsters; some stayed here forever...
The eight of them were imprisoned here because they cooked delicious food, specially cooking for the monsters.
The leader of the monsters is a pig monster. Tall and plump, oily and shiny, it is very edible. I often eat it in several large pots and still feel it is not enough. They are busy all day long. After you are busy today, you are busy tomorrow, and tomorrow is tomorrow, with no end in sight.
Today, we are even busier, with much more food prepared. It seems that a lot of monsters want to eat, and everyone is not allowed to stop for a moment.
The Yun family has been a family of doctors for generations, and Tianyue has been studying with them since she was a child. Although she is not very proficient in it, she has a little understanding of medical theory. Based on the balance of yin and yang and the principles of the five elements' control of life, some combinations were made, which suited the pig demon's taste very much, so he has been responsible for making combinations for the pig demon.
In the three years since they were captured here, the monsters have been fed and comfortable, and their moods have also improved. This group of people was not troubled by the little monsters and had a slightly better life.
After all, without them, they will suffer if the higher-ups get angry. Moreover, if you want to bully someone, why bother looking for these few people when there are a bunch of slaves to bully? However, it is only slightly better. Slaves are slaves after all, and there is no difference in essence.
Tianyue put the food stained with special things into a pile of food. Others were helping. Everyone was doing it skillfully without saying anything, just like before.
Seeing that the food was ready, Tianyue and a man named Lao Li were the strongest people here. They lifted up two large cages of food and walked towards the group of little monsters.
"Thank you for your hard work. This is a little thought from us. I hope you will accept it!" Tianyue said with a smile, feeling very helpless in her heart, but she had to do this in order to survive.
When the food was brought to them, the little monsters took it for granted and felt that everything was as it should be. They nodded and were very satisfied.
The two of them were respectful and laughing together, making them feel that they were superior. And you can blame everything on these people with peace of mind, saying that they contributed voluntarily, and if anything goes wrong, blame them.
"Well, not bad! Let's go!"
The dog demon shouted, and the little monsters rushed up together, fighting for it, and stuffing it with big mouthfuls. He was busy and waved to everyone to leave.
After eating for a while and feeling comfortable, the six little monsters wiped their mouths, rinsed their mouths, covered them up, and then carried the pile of food to the king.
They seemed to be in a good mood today and left some steamed buns as a reward for them.
Several people picked up the steamed buns, half for you and half for me. They huddled in the corner and ate them quietly.
Although it is a cupboard, the little monsters are supervising it and they dare not touch the food. It would be nice if he didn't starve to death.
'Bitter cold grass plus hot sunflower, these monsters have been eating it for so long. Also add today's Fei Pu grass as a medicinal herb. Hopefully, it's as I expected. '
While Tianyue was chewing, she looked at the ventilation hole diagonally above the side. From there, a faint light came in, spreading dusk on the ground.
The hole is not small. It is used for exhausting smoke from the kitchen. It is more than enough for people to get out from here. However, the little monsters naturally knew that there were two little monsters guarding outside in shifts to prevent them from escaping.
On the other side, six little monsters were carrying food and walking halfway, looking left and right to make sure there was no one else. They looked at me and I looked at you, you smiled and I smiled, and they all laughed evilly.
When the time came, he skillfully took out several plates of food and moved a stone away to reveal the cave inside. Carefully place the food inside and hide it. Then you pointed at me and I pointed at yours, suppressing a bad laugh and not daring to make too much noise. Afraid of being delayed for too long, I imitated others, made a shushing gesture, and hurriedly carried the food over.
In the widest room of the cave, on a stone throne, sat a half-human, half-pig monster with shiny oily skin. In front of the pig demon, the newly captured dancer was performing. On the side, the little monsters with high status were sitting, drinking heavily and living happily.
"You haven't come yet after eating so much?! Do you dare to neglect your brothers? Do you think you have a long life?" The pig demon smacked the table and was shocked. As soon as the atmosphere came out, two balls of snot spurted out of his nose, and he wiped his body with his big hand, making him look smoother and shinier.
When all the little demons saw it, they quickly stood up and advised: "Brother! Why get angry? If you make yourself so angry, you will delay important things!" As he spoke, he still nodded and pointed towards the outside of the cave.
When the pig demon heard this, his head turned. Thinking about it carefully, he felt that it made sense. Then he also calmed down, raised his hooves to signal the demons to sit down, and said: "Brothers are right, let's be prepared and use our plan to make sure that the group of human monks never come back."
When the monsters saw it, they quickly flattered them and said, "Brother is wise, let's get ready and kill them by surprise! Hahaha!"
"Hahaha! As long as we kill those people! I, the king, can use their power to advance to the third level. When the time comes, we will be blessed together! Come! Drink!"
The pig demon raised the bowl, and all the demons responded. They drank the strong wine in big gulps. They also imitated the human race. After drinking, they threw the bowl away and smashed it into pieces.
"Here it comes, here it comes! The king has been waiting for a long time! Please calm down, the king!" The six little monsters quickly brought up the food. At the king's signal, a lot of pigs, dogs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese, various vegetables and fruits, and spiritual herbs were distributed to the demons.
The monsters stuffed things into their stomachs with big mouthfuls, as if they hadn't eaten in decades. Chew a bite of that food and feel very satisfied. I only said the words "pleasant" and "delicious", but no other words. I was very satisfied and didn't feel anything unusual.
After one sip of the pig demon, he felt comfortable all over, and the speed of spiritual energy flowing in his body even increased by three points. He was very satisfied.
After the six little monsters were done, they retreated.
I jogged all the way to the place where I hid the food before, and looked around, but there was no one there! Great joy!
Carrying the food, he walked outside the kitchen and placed a full table. You and I imitate the human race, use their way, punch and drink, and have fun.
Outside the entrance of the cave, the bear demon who was guarding was salivating as he looked at it. He glanced at the people sitting there obediently and quietly, and hesitated a little after thinking about it.
The leader of the dog demon in charge of the kitchen saw this and waved his paw, calling the bear demon to come down.
"Hey! Brother Bear, come down and join us! We are just here to guard these few mortals! Nothing serious will happen!"
"become!"
The bear demon was overjoyed when he heard this. His body was too big and he couldn't shrink down from the hole. Furthermore, the hole was so dark that I didn’t want to go down from there. Then he made a detour and rushed in from somewhere else. As soon as he came in, he said hello, quickly picked up the bowl, picked up a piece of meat for himself, and poured a bowl of wine. Eat, drink and have fun together.
Tianyue closed her eyes and looked like she was asleep, quietly listening to the monsters eating, drinking and having fun. Judge the situation from their words.
Ever since I was caught here, I started thinking about how to escape.
If you stay here for a long time, your health will get worse and worse. If you stay here any longer, the end result will be death. It's just that the monsters are well-defended and their fighting power is much stronger than mortals like them. There are too many and they have no chance to escape.
'Thinking about it, maybe the sky has eyes, but they don't open them on me. In this way, it is better to seek help from others than from yourself. Since there are no opportunities, create opportunities. '
Thinking this way, he started taking action. Observe, think, search, formulate, implement. After finishing it, a plan was made.
The food that the monsters eat is within his own reach, so he starts with the food. The monsters are not that highly intelligent, and they don't understand any medical science. They only know what tastes good and what is good.
This gave him a chance. Through your own discrimination, you can mix some things that you are sure and can control to produce effects. Then quietly pick out some special things and keep them for future use. In this way, the monsters were drugged without anyone noticing. The monsters didn't notice it and kept saying it was good.
Although, we are all grasshoppers on the same rope, and we should live and die together. However, this is just the way it should be. Once exposed, everyone will die. Tianyue couldn't afford to gamble, didn't dare to gamble, and had no need to gamble.
One day, I witnessed a slave killing another slave for a bite of food. He was convinced that not everyone could see clearly who his spearhead should be aimed at. In the face of interests, anything can happen.
Moreover, after observation, it was found that other people did not understand any medical knowledge. If there were more people, it would be easier to be exposed. So, he carried on by himself.
…
Outside the Wilderness Mountain, eight figures flew here and gathered in a dense forest.
Eight human monks appeared, wearing uniform clothes. As soon as he appeared here, he quickly cooperated and set up a barrier to block perception.
"According to reliable information, today, the pig demon will break through to the third level. When it breaks through, it will have no time to care about anything else. This is our great opportunity!" A handsome young man spoke, as if taking the lead, with a somewhat excited tone. , like ambition being rewarded. The others listened to his arrangement and nodded in agreement.
"There are many mortals imprisoned here. When the time comes, when the pig demon breaks through. Junior Sister Ying, Junior Sister Fangruo, you two are responsible for solving the monsters where the mortals are imprisoned, rescue them, and escort them out of here!"
"yes!"
"At that time, there will definitely be monster guardians. Junior Brother Qi, Junior Brother Wu, and Junior Sister Lin. The three of you will be responsible for dealing with these little monsters."
"yes."
"Junior Brother Wu, Junior Brother Chu. When the time comes, the three of us will work together, while the other brothers are restraining us, to face the pig demon head-on, and take advantage of its unpreparedness to kill it."
"yes!"
"In this operation, our first priority is to protect ourselves. Secondly, it is to rescue those mortals. Thirdly, it is to kill those monsters. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Okay, just in case. Let's set up a formation on the outside first to prevent future troubles."
"good!"
The monks retreated to a distance and cooperated to set up another formation.
…
Tianyue sat there quietly, motionless, not wanting to move, just save some energy. Listening to the sound of the wind outside, the wind seems to be particularly strong tonight, making the flowers, plants and trees scream. No matter where the monsters were shouting, they couldn't cover up the sound. It penetrated a few strands and entered the ears. That is the sound of freedom.
Listening to the tone of the little monsters, they paused after saying a few words, and they were speechless. You don't need to look to see that he looks drunk.
'Three bitter colds, seven blazing suns. If yin and yang are not balanced, the body will be unstable. The dark clouds close the moon, and the flying rain falls in the cold. Frost and cold bring about, the imbalance is broken, and everything condenses. '
Tianyue thought silently in his heart that he prepared this elixir himself. A mortal has never come into contact with it and has no chance to experiment. He doesn't know how effective it will be. The heartbeat speeds up unconsciously. He raised his head slightly, revealing a trace of his eyes, and glanced at the moonlight that squeezed in from the hole.
In the sky, the wind blew harder and harder. A large group of dark clouds was blowing in the wind. It floated over here and covered the moon, leaving a period of darkness.
Suddenly, the bodies of those drunken demons were soaked with cold. They shivered unconsciously, and their breaths were filled with a hint of coldness. The demons were too drunk and it was late at night, so they didn't think it was that strange.
'efficient! '
Seeing this, the opportunity you have been waiting for for many years has arrived! Heartbroken, Tianyue stood up suddenly, decisively grabbed a jar containing Yuehan Stone that was used to store food to prevent it from expiring, and threw it at the little monsters.
Everyone was stunned, not knowing what happened, where they were, dumbfounded, and even a little scared.
The jar was smashed, and with a clang, the cold moon stone fell out and fell on the bodies of the little demons, causing the cold air to flow.
The surrounding temperature can really feel that it has dropped. Ice appears along the stone and spreads. In just a few strokes, the bodies of the little monsters were crawling all over, and in an instant, they were frozen into ice cubes. During the whole process, the monsters did not move at all.
Everyone's hearts speeded up unconsciously, and their breathing became a lot heavier.
Lao Li on the side understood something, and quickly greeted everyone and moved the table over.
Everyone reacted immediately and quickly went to help and put the table on the table. Scrambling to climb out of the hole.
"Quick! Xiaohong, you go first! Come one by one, don't be in a hurry!" Lao Li directed. Normally Lao Li would do the talking among these people, so it was better for him to direct. Send the youngest Xiaohong up first, then the women.
Tianyue, while waiting for others to go out, scraped off the pot ashes and smeared them on herself, turning herself into black so that she could hide better in the dark night. Others were stomping around waiting to get out, only regretting that they climbed too slowly.
If you wipe yourself and don't open your eyes, they will be black. At this time, it was almost time to reach him, and only himself and Lao Li were left.
"Hurry up, Tianyue! You go first!"
Tianyue was turning around when she caught a glimpse of something. On the waist of that dog demon, there is a jade pendant, which is very exquisite and is engraved with the phoenix in the phoenix seeking the phoenix.
'The phoenix seeks the phoenix! '
Tianyue was stunned for a moment. This is the ancestral jade pendant of the Yun family. It was originally on me, but it was so messy at the time that the jade pendant was snatched away by the monster. Now that I see the jade pendant, my legs no longer move forward.
He made a gesture for Lao Li to let him go first, and then rushed to the dog demon's side.
"Tianyue!" Lao Li didn't dare to delay and shouted while crawling.
Tianyue doesn't care, there are some things that cannot be thrown away casually. I want to get back the jade pendant.
The dog demon was already frozen, his meridians were disordered, his body's spiritual power was in chaos, and he was half dead.
He picked up the red-hot iron beside him, carrying the hatred accumulated over the years. He stabbed the dog demon decisively in the waist.
Just hearing a sizzling sound, a section of the dog demon's waist fell from his body. With the jade pendant and a small bag.
The dog demon wanted to scream and take action, but the meridians were blocked and the spiritual energy was flowing wildly, making it unable to do what it wanted. Coupled with the cold, the sound was as subtle as a mosquito's cry.
Tianyue felt that it was not enough, so she picked up a red-hot iron and pierced the dog demon's eyes. Two eyes rolled to the ground. He kicked me into the fire.
Then he grabbed the small bag and the jade pendant, put them into his arms, and put them away.
Looking at the kitchen, the anger still lingers. Throwing the coals in the stove to the firewood aside, he immediately climbed onto the table. Lao Li and Xiao Hong were still waiting there, pulling him up. Suddenly, he ran out.
…
"Do it!"
Seeing the dark clouds closing the moon, the opportunity is great. The monks acted instantly and rushed towards the monster cave.
…
"Prepare!"
Seeing the dark clouds closing the moon, the time has come to take advantage of the situation. The pig demon gave the order, and some of the little demons hid, while others pretended to be drunk and fell asleep somewhere. He took several monsters with him into the secret room and began to pretend to break through.
