Chapter 246: Lurking (Part 1)
The junction of Huizhou and Cangxi Prefecture stretches from north to south to the mountains. The terrain gradually shrinks from the vast and smooth roads on the east and west sides of the mountains to the Hukou Mountain Road less than a hundred feet long and wide. Because it cuts the access between the east and west states, it is called Hengduan Mountain.
There are mixed forces of large and large forces in the Hengduan Mountains, and there are many third-grade sects and secular cities and villages, and there are no distinction between immortals and customs. There are even many "wild sects" that have not been registered and included in the Immortal Dao Alliance. The grievances and entanglements between these large and small forces may not be able to distinguish them clearly even if those who have been struggling in this mountain since childhood.
Such as the weak sects being washed away overnight, the bandits who had no eyesight to stand in the wrong team were slaughtered, and other tragic events happen every day. The cultivation level of practitioners who can get a bowl of rice in Hengduan Mountains is not necessarily high-level, but they must be smart people who can judge the situation the most. Otherwise, in this Hengduan Mountain where people eat people and rob people, they will sooner or later become a handful of white bones that no one cares about under the loess.
Whoever can monopolize the Hukou Mountain Road in Hengduan Mountain, which is only a hundred feet long and wide, can control the largest lifeline of Hengduan Mountain. The high-ranking first- and second-grade sects sometimes pass by through the passage. No matter how they eat the courage of the bear heart and the leopard, they dare not act rashly and the dirty thoughts that may cause a catastrophe.
But when ordinary families or convoys transporting food and goods in big cities passed by, they had not been able to eat the oil and water they had in their hands before, and they had to seize them from these poor people. The private taxes and the black shops spread across major forces in Hengduan Mountain made ordinary families suffer, but they dared not speak out, so they had to break their teeth and swallow them into their stomachs, which further enriched their prestige.
The third-grade sect that occupied Baizhang Hukou Mountain Road has undergone several storms and storms. Finally, the disciples of the Tianpu Sect stepped on the thick plasma as deep as a ruler under the disciples of other sects, and hung the plaque of the Tianpu Sect on the Hukou Mountain Road.
However, the disciples of the Tianpu Sect who should have shown their power in this way turned out to be abnormal and did not continue to expand the territory of the sect. Instead, they all lived in simplicity, but made the forces that were silent around them before and didn't know what the Tianpu Sect sold in the Tianpu Sect gourd.
Tianpu Sect, outside the main hall of the sect.
The hall was covered with snow, covered with pine and cypress. Yang Kai, as a sweeper, grabbed a broom that was a piece taller than his body, as if he was meticulously sweeping the snow in front of the hall. However, his hands, which were still trembling, and his face were terrified, making a few drops of discordant ink stained with a quiet early spring scroll at this time.
Yang Kai was frightened inside, and the snowflakes piled under the broom seemed to be unable to be cleaned. He raised his head from time to time and looked around, hoping to see the familiar figures in the past, but hopes failed again and again.
Rather than saying that there is hope in his eyes, it is better to have more luck.
The sect leader, elders and senior brothers and sisters seemed to have disappeared overnight. Instead, some strange people who had never seen before. They took over the entire Tianpumen Gate and killed a lot of sects fighting for Hukou Mountain Road, almost slaughtering more than half of the surrounding forces. The Tianpumen Gate, which was not very famous, became the overlord of Hengduan Mountain who owned Hukou Mountain Road that day.
He would not forget the horrible appearance of the monsters when they returned that night. The thick plasma under their feet almost dyed the entire hall red. Are the bright red eyes and pale faces under the broken hat really humans?
Later, several crazy chefs in the Tianpu Gate disappeared. He once plucked up his courage to go to the kitchen that was abandoned for half a month. He could smell the strong smell of blood from a distance, so he didn't dare to go in. He crawled back to the dormitory with his heels weakened, for fear that he would disappear like those cooks after entering.
He swept the snow in a daze, not knowing that in all parts of the Tianpu Sect, a puppet with pale faces and scarlet eyes stared at him in the dark, and his empty jaw suddenly grinned out a ferocious corner of his mouth that reached the root of his ear.
The Heavenly Puppet Sect has been dead in name only.
The doors and windows in the Tianpu Gate Hall were closed, and the light in the hall was dark. Dozens of figures wearing soap clothes and soap robes sat cross-legged. At first glance, they looked like people in the Taoist temple, but they could vaguely see countless red silk threads floating on their bodies. Only one of the insignificant wisps had a great smell of blood. The scarlet blood in the entire hall was as shaped as a substance, which made people disgusting. But these figures in the soap robes did not show a painful and tormented expression, but were happy to indulge in it.
The man in the wide door owner's seat had a charming face, with his pale fingertips curled up with red silk threads, and his black hair hung on the corner of his mouth like a waterfall. His red lips were as cold as a knife, and he looked at the figure kneeling in front of him with a smile.
"A man, still not caught?"
Before the kneeling figure raised his head, the charming man laughed at himself: "I think it's me talking nonsense. If the person has been caught, how could you kneel in the palace?"
The figure on the ground was trembling and frightened. Among the younger generations of the Wanmo, the cold and weak nature of Senior Brother Yuan Kwai was as good as his cultivation strength. He was moody and acted entirely on his preferences, and his methods were the most cruel and ruthless. If he did not give an explanation that satisfies Senior Brother, he would not need to step out of this palace alive today.
The figure knelt down and raised his head. It turned out to be Luo Mie, who had fought with Chang Xi and his party in a valley near Lijia Village. He reported truthfully: "Brother, the disciple of Qingyun Mountain riding a black panther is indeed quite tricky. Since he entered the Hengduan Mountains, he has killed many of us. His sword skills are extremely outstanding, and he cannot get close to the ordinary Jindan realm. Moreover, this boy is well versed in the earth escape technique. He does not pursue the victory after he succeeds, but immediately escapes away."
Yuan Kui, who was tall and tilted his head, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Is that so? After all, he is an inner disciple of Qingyun Mountain, so it is reasonable to be a little more difficult."
Luo Mie bowed his head and kowtowed. His forehead was soon covered in blood and blood, "Please give me some more hands and demon puppets, junior brother, I will definitely be able to peel the Qingyun Mountain disciple within half a month!"
"Baoshi, you were so happy back then that time, you were so happy that you led people to encircle Qingyun Mountain to reinforce the disciples, but you never thought that you would not be able to steal chickens and lose rice. You fled all the way and were chased by the righteous monks like a stray dog. Then your group not only died in battle, but also implicated us and were forced to reveal your whereabouts. Now you can't even catch a disciple of Qingyun Mountain in the back of the Jindan realm. What's the use for you?!"
A sinister man standing beside Luo Mie was furious when he heard this. The majestic aura of the Nascent Soul Realm was undoubtedly revealed. He raised his feet and kicked Luo Mie. Luo Mie groaned, and his body hit the pillar in front of the palace like a broken sack. His throat became sweet, and his chest was dyed red. He was so nervous that he didn't dare to speak again.
Just as the sinister man was about to flash over and break the spine of the waste, the senior brother's casual voice suddenly rang in his ear.
