Volume 1, Chapter 29: The conspiracy of blood sacrifice, Li Gao’s substitute technique.
The little monk continued while eating the cake, "We have to find a way to escape and report this to the government in Ye City. If this continues and this evil cult really resurrects the willow tree monster, the people of Beimang will suffer."
Government?
Hearing these two words, Ye Tingmu couldn't help but recall the scene when he just crossed over.
At that time, Yejia Village was surrounded and attacked by the government troops of Beimang City.
Later I also inquired about it, and the conclusion given in the massacre manifesto was disobedience, that is, rebellion and rebellion against the superiors.
I asked Feng He if there was anyone in Yejia Village who was an official in the current dynasty, or a general on the battlefield.
Feng He told himself, none of them.
I was confused at that time. If I had nothing, how could this isolated village with only a hundred households and a group of villagers rebel? How could they possibly rebel?
Isn't this a false accusation?
Later, in order to escape pursuit, he took a few people and left the territory of Beimang City.
However, except for himself and Feng He, the other three cubs did not know about this.
In fact, the reason why he agreed to let Dongfang Qingzhu go to Beimang this time was that he had some selfish motives. He wanted to investigate what happened in Yejia Village in the past.
You have to know the cause of the matter. Besides, when you become strong in the future and want to avenge your brothers, sisters and family, you also have to know who the enemy is.
He said to the little monk, "Are you sure the officials in Yecheng don't know about this?"
"Donor Ye, why do you say that?" The little monk raised his eyes and looked at him.
Ye Tingmu narrowed his eyes and began to analyze.
"Just think about it, there are at least hundreds of thousands of bodies in the black water pond outside. With such a large population base, I'm afraid even ten Willow Towns combined wouldn't be enough to support them."
After hearing what Ye Tingmu said, the little monk lowered his head and began to think.
"Well, I asked when I came here, and the total population of Willow Town is only tens of thousands."
Ye Tingmu shrugged.
"So, the bodies in this black water pond are enough to kill at least ten Willow Towns. How could the government not know about such a large-scale disappearance of the population?"
The little monk suddenly looked up.
"What Patron Ye meant was that... this matter was also somewhat related to the government office in Ye City."
"Then I don't know, but what is certain is that someone from the Yecheng government must be involved in this matter, and this person's rank is not low." He replied indifferently.
As the saying goes, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so the county magistrate can become king.
If this matter had nothing to do with the government, he would never believe it.
It was announced that there was a Fire Cloud Python in Willow Town, but wow, there was also a Fire Cloud Dragon.
Someone also spread the rumor that the Fire Cloud Python was in this black water pool.
No matter how I think about it, I feel that there must be some conspiracy behind this.
He didn't believe that if the government really cared about this matter, they would not have discovered this place and would not know that so many people were missing in Yecheng.
The number of corpses in this pool of water might not reach one-tenth of the population of Yecheng, but it must be at least one percent.
If it was really as he thought, then this demon-killing seemed like a trap set by someone to lure people like them into it.
Suddenly, he felt that the Fire Cloud Python head he had snatched was no longer attractive.
If it is really as I thought, that guy will probably be killed to silence him.
I have encountered two powerful people in the Divine Wandering Realm in one day.
God knows how many masters like this there are in Yecheng.
"In that case, we can only go back to Beimang City to ask for help. I just don't know if it will be too late." The little monk gritted his teeth and frowned tightly.
At his speed, it would take at least six or seven days to reach Beimang.
Ye Tingmu rolled his eyes at him.
"Why don't you go back to the sect and call for reinforcements? Isn't your Kongling Temple one of the six major sects? That guy must have a Ninth Realm master in charge. One move and they'll all be wiped out."
The little monk smiled.
"Master Ye, do you really not know or are you pretending not to know? You are just teasing me."
Ye Tingmu was stunned for a moment. What he said was correct. Could it be that Kongling Temple, one of the six major sects, did not even have a ninth-level expert? That was impossible. After all, the small Beimang City still had two.
"Hiss... Where did you get that from?"
"Among my six major sects, the closest Piao Miao Sect is thousands of miles away from Bei Mang, and my Kong Ling Temple is located in the Imperial City. It will take more than a month for me to return to the sect."
Ye Tingmu's eyes rolled.
"Is it that far?"
"That's natural."
"Then I really don't know." He curled his lips and looked at the little monk.
"That's not right. Why did you run so far? Aren't there any monsters over there?"
The little monk shook his head.
"How could there be any monsters in the Jiuzhou Imperial City? Among the Jiuzhou, only the Northern Mang Province borders the Great Wilderness, where monsters roam rampant. If we, disciples of the Kongling Temple, want to eliminate monsters, we need to travel thousands of miles to the Northern Mang territory."
"Also, I heard from my master that there might be a cult causing chaos here, so I traveled thousands of miles to come here."
Ye Tingmu nodded disapprovingly.
"I see. Why have I never heard of these six major sects?" He then continued to ask, "What about the Blood God Cult? Where is their territory?"
The little monk swallowed the pancake in his mouth and looked at Ye Tingmu.
"Donor Ye, do you have any more bread? Give me another piece."
Ye Tingmu rolled his eyes.
"Answer my question first."
The little monk sniffed angrily.
"I don't know. They used to be in Moyun Valley. Later, in the war, Moyun Valley was razed to the ground. No one knows where they went."
"All right."
"Where's the cake......"
“No more.”
“Speechless.”
At this time, Li Gao beside him also woke up. He opened his eyes in a daze and found himself tied up. He was stunned.
"you........."
With a bang.
Li Gao stared at the little monk in disbelief, then fainted again.
The little monk held an oval stone in his hand and looked at Ye Tingmu and asked, "Did he want to say something just now?"
Ye Tingmu shrugged.
"Who knows?"
After more than half an hour, Li Gao woke up again.
"Why the hell are you hitting me? I saved you, are you kidding me?"
Ye Tingmu's hand holding the scabbard stopped in the air.
It seems to be true. Even if the person is a ghost, he saved me after all, so it is really inappropriate to beat him like this.
"Well, brother, let me tell you, when we die, we should just be reincarnated. There's nothing to be nostalgic about in this world. Don't worry, I'll definitely build a tomb for you when I get out."
Li Gao stared at him blankly, as if he were a fool.
What is reincarnation and what is a cenotaph?
"What are you talking about? Let me go."
"We all saw that you were burned to death by the Fire Cloud Dragon. You may not be able to accept it yet, but this is indeed the fact." Ye Tingmu said to him seriously.
The little monk beside him nodded quickly.
"Yes, I saw it too. Not a single hair was left."
Now Li Gao understood, my goodness, it seems you thought that I was dead.
I couldn't help but feel angry and amused.
"Do you know that there is a Taoist magic called the art of substitution? What you saw is my substitute?"
“Ah~~~”
"Ah, what? Untie it for me quickly."
