Chapter 123

After getting the information he wanted, Xiahou Wudang threw the silver coins to the waiter and said, "Hurry up and clean up a few rooms. My general wants to rest here tonight. If you serve him well, there will be a reward."

Although he had found out a place that could accommodate his soldiers to set up camp, Xiahou Wu still ordered the waiter to get busy.

If they rest tonight in a place where there is no village or inn nearby, it would be fine for their general and soldiers to share the hardships together.

The conditions are there and no one can do anything about it.

But there are obviously better options, and no one would be stupid enough to let their boss live in the open.

That night, Ding Hai and some of his personal guards rested in the post station.

At night, Ding Hai looked at the Taoist scriptures and martial arts classics he had looted on his way south, and then went to bed early.

Not long after he fell asleep, shouts of killing rang out from the camp not far away.

Everyone in the post station was awakened by the shouting and flames not far away.

Looking at the Lanruo Temple not far away, which was burning half the sky red in the dark night, a smart waiter rolled his eyes and ran towards the gate.

Judging from the noise, it might be that the 800 cavalrymen have blown up their camp. If we don't run away now, it will be too late later.

But before the waiter could take two steps, the postmaster stopped him and said, "It's very chaotic outside now, and you can't see people clearly at night.

If you really encounter rebel soldiers, they will kill you with a single blow and you will have no place to appeal. The military commander who is staying here today is the leader of those rebel soldiers. Only by staying here can we have a chance of survival."

After so many years of welcoming and seeing off guests, the postmaster knows much more about things than the waiter. The post station is only a few miles away from Lanruo Temple, and no matter how fast one's legs are, they can't be faster than those cavalrymen who ride two horses each.

Going out at this time may seem like avoiding disaster, but in fact it is seeking death.

In fact, in front of Lanruo Temple, which was only a few miles away from the post station, the camp bombing that the postmaster imagined did not happen.

The cavalry that Ding Hai mobilized on this trip were his most loyal and elite subordinates, who had gone north to the grasslands with Ding Hai several times to forage for food.

Such a harsh environment outside the Great Wall did not make them lose order, so how could they blow up the camp for no reason?

But these eight hundred riders were indeed raising their swords to kill.

Amid the scenery of the small bridge and flowing water at Lanruo Temple, hundreds of burly men were standing in the raging flames, swinging their swords to chop off the necks of bald thieves one by one.

Just now, the cooks who had mistakenly entered the back mountain of Lanruo Temple in search of clean water saw a disgusting scene.

These men who had waded through mountains of corpses and seas of blood had seen countless disgusting scenes, and broken limbs and corpses were nothing to them.

But this time, even they who were so resistant found what the thieves in Lanruo Temple did unbearable.

At the edge of the pagoda forest on the back mountain of Lanruo Temple, they saw a scene of hell on earth, where hundreds of naked female corpses were hung on a large locust tree and arranged in a large letter shape.

The internal organs of the female corpses had been hollowed out from their vulva by the bald thieves, and many of the female corpses that had been dead for a long time even had their white bones exposed.

The ground under the big locust tree had turned black and red due to the blood of the female corpses, and there were countless abandoned bones in the forest behind the big locust tree.

If it were just this, the many cavalrymen who could be called butchers in the Anbei Army would be angry but would not feel disgusted. After all, they were also men who had built Jingguan outside the Great Wall.

But what was found in a large cauldron in the Tallinn underground palace later made many killer embryos vomit.

The internal organs, the purple river, and the bodies of babies that had not yet fully grown in the cauldron all made these killer embryos feel nauseous.

It is true that they are man-killers, but when they were roaming the grasslands, they never ate people even though the environment was harsh!

This thief bald man from Lanruo Temple actually disregards humanity and eats humans!
They have lost all conscience!

"Kill all the people in Lanruo Temple who were involved in the incident at the back mountain pagoda forest. If anything goes wrong, I, Xiahou Wu, will take full responsibility. I will go and explain to the general."

A bald head was chopped off by a knife, and Yang Ye, who was dragged to the back mountain of Lanruo Temple by the cooks, shouted fiercely.

He is the direct superior of these 800 elite cavalrymen, and because of his status as a family general, he also has a say in front of Ding Hai.

Therefore, these eight hundred elite cavalrymen carried out Yang Ye's orders without hesitation.

One after another, the thieves fell under their long swords. The mixture of blood and fire frightened the believers and pilgrims who were staying overnight in Lanruo Temple into trembling with fear.

With a knife, he cut through the flames in front of him. A personal soldier brought a kind-looking old monk to Yang Ye and said, "Captain, when we were chasing those thieves, they were still obeying and protecting this old thief while they were running away.

In my opinion, he must be an important figure among the monks in Lanruo Temple. I will capture him and wait for the captain to decide his fate."

Looking at the old monk with a normal expression, Yang Ye did not ask him directly.

Instead, he casually called over a pilgrim who was staying at Lanruo Temple and asked him about the origins of the old bald thief.

He looked at the eight hundred elite cavalrymen with their long swords shining coldly, and then looked at Yang Ye who was carrying the old monk.

The pilgrim who was being questioned swallowed his saliva and then said, "Reporting to the captain, this eminent monk is the Three Precepts Master of Lanruo Temple.

"I have a profound knowledge of Buddhism. May I ask why the captain wants to arrest this man?"

"He is wearing a monk's robe and committing evil deeds. This thief baldy deserves to be cut into pieces!" Yang Ye explained casually in anger.

But the pilgrims who had never seen the hell on earth of the pagoda forest behind Lanruo Temple were confused by this answer.

Among the 800 elite cavalry, some smart ones immediately turned around and led the male pilgrims towards the pagoda forest in the back mountain. Doing good deeds without leaving a name is not the style of their Anbei Army.

Watching the many pilgrims leave, the old bald thief who was kneeling in front of Xiahou Wu finally spoke.

"The captain is a superior person, and a superior person should have superior cognition. Our Lanruo Temple is protected by Buddhism. The captain rashly used weapons, and I am afraid he will go to the eighteenth level of hell in the future."

Seeing that the old bald thief not only did not beg for mercy, but instead threatened him implicitly, Yang Ye didn't waste any words and wanted to chop him down with a knife.

Seeing that Yang Ye had no moral principles and was really going to kill him with a knife, the old bald thief immediately became nervous.

"Captain, why would you offend my Buddhist sect just for the skin of some human medicine?
As long as you give the order, Captain, your soldiers will stop waving their swords.

This old monk is willing to recommend you, Captain, to enjoy wealth and honor in the Buddhist sect. The current national master Pu Du Ci Hang is a member of our Buddhist sect.

Not only that, the old monk is also willing to give you some of the human elixir that is being brewed in the pagoda forest in the back mountain.

This human pill gathers the essence of ginseng fruit and the body of the beautiful girl, supplemented by the best purple car river. It is an excellent medicine for nourishing yin and tonifying the kidney.

The old monk is already ninety-nine years old this year. After taking this elixir, he can still have sex with several women at night without being out of breath.

"If a great hero like you, the lieutenant, had eaten the human pill, I'm afraid no woman in this world would be able to resist your love."

In response to the temptation of the Three Rings Thief Bald, Yang Ye's answer was to chop him with his sword as originally planned.

However, Yang Ye changed his mind. He didn't want to kill the thief with one blow, which would be too easy for him, so he cut off the ears of the thief first.

Then, two flashes of the knife chopped off his patella, forcing him to kneel on the ground for the rest of his life.

Looking at the patella that had just been separated from his body, Sanjie was afraid: "Captain, how dare you disregard my Buddhist identity? Aren't you afraid of my Buddhist revenge?"

“Besides, this human pill is not only consumed by monks like us from Lanruo Temple.

In Jinhua County, Songjiang Prefecture, and Zhejiang Province, there are countless inhumane dignitaries who have consumed the human pills of my Lanruo Temple.

You can kill these unarmed monks in my Lanruo Temple, can you kill those powerful people all over Zhejiang Province?

The force that those powerful people can mobilize to satisfy the two pounds of meat between their legs is absolutely beyond your imagination, Captain.

Even if you are a captain of the Anbei Army, you will definitely not be able to withstand their counterattack. "

Yang Ye didn't care at all about the three thieves' shouting before his death.

As a person with a high IQ, although Yang Ye did not dare to say that he had seen through Ding Hai's thoughts, he also knew what kind of person his general was.

They are just a bunch of chickens and dogs. If they really anger their general, they should just wait at home for the Anbei Army to come and confiscate their property and exterminate their family.
The soldiers of You and Bing states had long regarded the imperial power and laws of the Great Zhou as waste paper.

In response to the barking of the Three Ring Dogs, there were dozens of lightning-fast knife flashes. After calmly chopping a hundred times in a cup of tea, Yang Ye finally vented all the anger in his chest.

Looking at the bald thief Sanjie who had not a single bit of flesh and blood on his body, Yang Ye waved his hand and chopped out a palm wind towards Sanjie's still alive head.

The hundred-knife torture has been carried out, and it is time for Sanjie to report to the remaining souls of the victims and atone for his sins.

To ensure that the remaining souls of the victims can harm the soul of the Three Rings.

Yang Ye even took the trouble to circulate his qi and blood, and with the suppression and damage brought by qi and blood to the soul and body, he melted Sanjie's soul into dozens of incomplete soul fragments.

Not long after Yang Ye eliminated the biggest evil in Lanruo Temple, his cavalry quickly killed all the monks in Lanruo Temple who had eaten the human elixir.

The pilgrims in Lanruo Temple did not express any objection to this.

As a result, Lanruo Temple, which had stood outside Jinhua County for more than a hundred years, disappeared!
But this matter is not over yet. Ding Hai, who heard the noise here, did not come here in person. It was just a bloody cave of demons. There was no need for him to take action personally.

In his opinion, it would be enough to have Yan Chixia, who came from the Xuanxin sect, come here to give some guidance.

Tallinn, under the big locust tree.

Yan Chixia, holding a torch, ignored the headless bald thieves and looked at the big locust tree in front of him.

As a direct descendant of the Xuanxin sect, he discovered that there was something strange about the locust tree as soon as he entered Lanruo Temple.

After being nourished by the blood and spirits of countless people, it has become a spirit: "Hand over the names of those dignitaries who took the human pill, and I will bear your hatred.

I, Yan Chixia, swear here that I will not let the beasts who feed on your flesh and blood go unpunished.

After you hand in the list, your souls will be scattered between heaven and earth. If we try to expel you, I'm afraid you won't even have a fragment of your soul left."

The big locust tree, which had already developed some initial intelligence, did not agree with the conditions offered by Yan Chixia.

Even ants try to survive, let alone a creature like this that has become a spirit.

Moreover, it may not be without a chance of fighting.

Having been in the back mountain of Lanruo Temple, this hell on earth, for hundreds of years, even it itself doesn't know how much resentment and hatred it has absorbed.

If he attacks with all his strength, even if Yan Chixia is not corrupted by the resentful energy and turned into a demon, he will definitely be seriously injured and will no longer have the strength to hurt it.

However, looking at the raging flames in the front mountain, the locust tree demon did not dare to really turn hostile.

It could sense the dozens of blood and energy smoke rising into the sky from the Lanruo Temple in the front mountain.

The advance and retreat of those blood and energy smokes were in order.

If you encounter it one-on-one, you may end up dead.

But once they formed a battle formation, even if it could absorb and spew out massive amounts of resentful energy to corrode them, it would definitely be torn to pieces by them.

'I hate it so much. In another ten years, I can refine this body and hide myself among the trees on the mountain.

By then I could have sucked all those thieves dry, but I didn't expect a group of soldiers to show up and ruin my years of forbearance.'

Although she was filled with hatred, the tree demon who had not yet grown up did not dare to ignore Yan Chixia in front of her.

The leaves rubbed against the branches and danced. A voice that was difficult to distinguish between a man and a woman came from the big locust tree: "I have not yet transformed into a human form and opened my cross bones. I cannot show my body to meet you, sir. I hope you can forgive me.

Sir, please understand. Although I am a monster, I have never killed anyone. The human corpses on my body are all the sins committed by those bald thieves in the mountain in front of me!"

Yan Chixia was unmoved by the tree demon grandma's plea. After so many years in the martial arts world, he had his own set of criteria for judgment.

In terms of crime, the tree demon grandma has never killed anyone with her own hands, so she shouldn't kill for no reason.

However, the tree demon grandma, who was able to become a spirit because she was nourished by the resentment of people before they died, is no longer a tree demon with a heart as pure as a blank sheet of paper.

After absorbing the soul fragments of those who died resentfully over the years, it has embarked on the path of evil.

A tree demon with mental problems and violent emotions dominating his mind.

Even if you are in the mountains, you should not let yourself go: "Letting you shatter your soul has nothing to do with whether you have killed anyone.

Even if you destroy your own soul and all your cultivation will go to waste, I can guarantee that your true spirit will remain awake.

However, if you choose not to cooperate, in order to prevent future troubles, we can only choose to grind you to ashes."

Seeing that Yan Chixia was unwilling to let her go, she immediately became angry and said, "General, don't push me too far. Even a rabbit will bite when it is angry.

I am not without the strength to fight. If the general is willing to show mercy and let me go, I am willing to tell the general a huge secret. "

Yan Chixia was not very interested in the secrets told by the tree demon grandma.

Don't look at the fact that he works under Ding Hai, but he is the direct descendant of the Xuanxin Sect, the leader of the three Taoist sects.

Although the Xuanxin Sect has declined somewhat in recent years due to the deliberate suppression of the Great Zhou, the foundation of the sect is still there. It is obvious that there are great secrets in this world that he does not know about.

"As long as you are willing to swear to let me go, I will give you the secret of why the Heavenly Palace fell into the human world."
