That day, the wind and snow on the top of Buzhou Mountain stopped for a rare moment.
Ao Yan was sitting on a recliner, brewing tea by the stove as usual. Suddenly, he felt something and frowned.
After counting with his fingers, he figured out that there was something wrong at the bottom of Mount Buzhou. The Demon Lord seemed to be showing signs of revival. However, he could not figure out the specific reason.
"Feng Sui," he called decisively, "Pack your bags, let's go down the mountain."
He tightened his cloak and pointed two fingers into the air. A silver sword flashing with blue light appeared in the air. The sword seemed to be able to recognize the owner's mind and went straight to his feet. Then the man and the sword flew out quickly.
"Sir, wait for me."
Regardless of how hurriedly Feng Sui packed his luggage, he followed him...
————
The Bi Yue Sect is currently selecting a saint.
They will select the twelve best female disciples from more than one hundred who have been carefully trained for three years and eventually send them to the capital.
In this regard, Li Shushu was originally confident of victory.
However, she didn't expect that a few days before the finals, her best friend Sisi secretly took her to the back mountain to drink and eat meat.
They used to do this activity occasionally, and usually Li Shushu would take Sisi with her.
Although she joined the Bi Yue Sect, Li Shushu did well in other aspects, but she never cared about eating and drinking. After all, she had always been a foodie, and the only truth she believed in was: drink while you can.
This time, it was a rare occasion that Sisi took the initiative to invite him. Although Li Shushu knew that this time point was critical and had planned to be quiet for a few days, seeing Sisi's worried look, he thought that she was worried about the finals in a few days, so he went anyway.
After three rounds of drinks, Sisi began to reveal her true nature. "Shushu, I really envy you. With your strength and the respect the envoy has for you, you will definitely become a saint. But I'm different. I'm not as good as you in any way..."
Li Shushu took a sip of wine and comforted her: "Sisi, don't be discouraged, you are also very good. As long as you perform normally, you will definitely be selected. Don't worry."
Sisi was obviously not comforted, she said quietly, "Tell me, if I'm not chosen, where will I go?
Where did all those disciples who were not selected in the previous batches go?"
Li Shushu frowned.
She really hadn't thought about this question in detail, because she had always believed that she could be selected.
But where did all those disciples go?
It seemed like they had gone through several rounds of selection, but I never saw those disciples who weren't chosen again. Could it be that they had found a place to go so quickly and left on their own?
This question aroused her curiosity.
At this time, there was a sudden rustling noise not far from the back mountain. Li Shushu was very alert. He quickly turned off the lights and pulled Sisi to hide behind a big rock.
Soon, a small group of men in black, two by two, carrying some sacks, passed by.
There were obviously living things in those sacks, and they were still moving.
They didn't light torches either, and it was obvious that what they were doing was not a good thing.
Li Shushu prepared to follow secretly to find out what was going on.
She glanced at Sisi and motioned her to follow, but Sisi shook her head vigorously, and her mouth shape roughly meant that she didn't dare.
Li Shushu always knew that she was timid, so he didn't force her, and she followed him on her own.
The men carried the sacks and walked grunting all the way until they finally reached the entrance of a hidden cave.
The man in the lead lit the torch, and they continued to move forward, carrying the sacks.
Although Li Shushu was a little scared, curiosity killed the cat, so she still followed quietly from behind.
The group of people walked to a deeper part of the cave, put down the sacks, and without saying a word, rushed out, as if they were extremely scared.
Li Shushu hid behind a big rock in the cave and waited patiently until she was sure that those people had left. Then she tiptoed out.
After taking out a tinder from her sleeve and lighting it, she continued to walk towards the sacks in the cave with the faint light of the tinder.
During this time, she felt that the ground under her feet was not flat. There were often things that made crunching sounds when she stepped on them, and there were also some things that were round and lumpy, and she would kick them far away if she was not careful.
She used a tinder to shine on the ground to see what was going on.
This photo doesn't matter...
There were only some white bones and skulls, and some mummies with intact skin and hair, but it seemed as if all the blood had been drained out!
Piled all over the floor.
She was almost scared to death.
Fortunately, she has always been quick to react. As soon as she noticed something unusual, she immediately covered her mouth tightly and bit her palm hard, so as not to scream "Ahhh".
She knew that it was not advisable to stay here for long and that saving her life was the most important thing, so she turned around and wanted to run away.
But after running two steps, she had to stop after hearing the movement in the sack - the voice coming from the sack was obviously a female voice. She guessed that there might be a companion who studied with her in the past.
Never mind, it'll just take a short while.
So she decisively turned around, ran to the pile of sacks, and quickly untied a few of them. Inside were indeed several female disciples dressed like her.
She quickly took the cloths out of the mouths of several people and untied the ropes that bound their hands and feet.
Although she didn't know almost all of these people, perhaps because she usually stood out, someone quickly recognized her. "Shushu, it's Li Shushu. She saved us. Everyone, hurry up and thank her."
"Now is not the time to talk about this, we should not stay here for long.
"Everyone, hurry up and help each other. After we untie the ropes, we'd better escape as soon as possible." Li Shushu said sternly.
Her hands were not idle either, and she continued to untie the sack quickly.
The women obviously thought what she said made sense, and they quickly helped each other.
After everyone was able to move around on their own, Li Shushu took the lead and led everyone out of the cave...
It was midnight. Outside the cave, the moon was completely covered by dark clouds. The entire mountaintop was pitch black without a trace of light.
Suddenly, there was a strange noise in the cave.
The exit from the cave was suddenly blocked by something. Although they could clearly see the road ahead, it seemed as if there was a wall in front of them. No matter how hard Li Shushu and the others tried, they couldn't push it forward or step over it.
In the back, black smoke suddenly emerged from the huge crack in the stone. Two red spots of light appeared on the huge stone. The black mist instantly condensed into the shape of a big mouth. Then, an old and deep voice sounded: "Now that you are here, do you still want to leave?
I advise you all to be obedient. If you obey me, I will let you enjoy the ultimate happiness before you die!
As for the disobedient ones, I'm sorry, I'll probably just swallow them whole and digest them slowly!"
