"You old bastard, you've finally found me! You were just putting on an act for me, but now I'll see what tricks you have up your sleeve!"
I placed my hand on the doll sculpture and squeezed it hard. The next second, the sculpture shattered into pieces.
Just as that strange sound was about to come out, I extinguished it, just as I had thought. This was the true form of the demon.
"Old Chen! You found it?"
Luo Tianhe turned around and looked at me excitedly.
I nodded and told him that I had eliminated the evil spirit, but this was just the beginning. I felt that there should be something else in this secret room.
My words caught Luo Tianhe's attention, and he told me not to worry, that he would search carefully inside.
I had Lei Jijian examine it, and he told me that this evil spirit was quite powerful and cunning, and had not distributed all its power into the ceramic doll.
I raised an eyebrow slightly. Good heavens, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. As expected, weak demons are all like this. I didn't intend to completely eliminate this thing in one go.
Just then, Ji Xinglan called me over from not far away.
Without wasting any words, I rushed over as fast as I could, and there appeared a small water vat in front of Ji Xinglan.
When I opened it, it was filled with scarlet liquid and had a fishy, foul smell.
This is blood, and it's that kind of blood!
"That old bastard! He's been doing all sorts of bad things in the temple all the time!"
I took a deep breath. With so much snow, I wonder how many girls I'll need.
I waved my hand, beckoning Luo Tianhe over. Luo Tianhe came to my side, staring at everything before him with an unusually solemn expression.
"Old Chen, I've seen something similar in ancient books before. It seems to be a kind of evil cultivation method!"
It's like absorbing yin to replenish yang! The main purpose is to use this blood to refine elixirs, thereby enhancing one's own strength.
I truly can't believe a monk would resort to such a method; it's really quite unbelievable!
Luo Tianhe stared at the pile of blood, remained silent for a long time, and then finally spoke his mind.
After listening, I nodded in approval. I had seen this method in Yingniang's notes before.
It's the worst of the worst; if anyone used a similar method, they would be utterly wicked.
"Judging by the amount of blood, he must have harmed at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, girls over the years! Now let's see if there are any survivors!"
Luo Tianhe placed his hand on the water tank, sensed its approximate capacity, and then drew a conclusion.
This is similar to the conclusion I just reached, that beast.
I then sent a telepathic message to Lei Jijian, asking if I could absorb the power of this blood, since I'm currently very short of energy.
I don't want to give up any way to improve my strength.
Lei Jijian, on the other hand, reprimanded me.
"First of all, this blood has been there for a long time, and the energy inside has long since dried up."
Secondly, even if it is absorbable, I would not recommend that you inhale it!
Master! Improving your strength is indeed urgent, but you must also act within your capabilities!
Lei Jijian's voice came through in a deep, old-fashioned tone; I never expected this guy to start trying to persuade me.
I was also awakened by what Lei Jijian said.
Yes, I almost fell into the devil's trap.
If I actually absorb these things, then I'll be no different from that guy.
Thinking about this, I shook my head and quickly realized what was happening.
I then used the lightning sword to destroy all the blood.
Sure enough, these things made a sizzling sound when they came into contact with the blood.
I also removed all the evil energy inside!
"Holy crap, there's evil energy in this too!"
Seeing this, Old Dao was stunned; he had also thought it was just a pool of blood.
I told Lao Dao that the demon inside was extremely cunning; it had possessed this place specifically to bewitch me.
Looking at the scene before me, I was still a little shaken. Fortunately, the Thunder Strike Sword had sensed something unusual earlier; otherwise, if I had absorbed the energy directly, my mental state might have been affected.
"Uncle Chen, this place feels a bit familiar!"
Ji Xinglan suddenly grabbed my arm and spoke softly. I frowned and looked around. I was sure that this was my first time here. It was so unfamiliar to me.
However, since Ji Xinglan said she was quite familiar with this place, it must be related to some kind of experience Ji Xinglan had in the past.
"Uncle Chen, follow me, I think I know how to get around here!"
Ji Xinglan reached out her hand, and I held it tightly.
And so, under Ji Xinglan's guidance, we searched the entire secret room, but found nothing.
Just as we were about to give up, Ji Xinglan came to a wall and knocked on it hard.
The walls made a thumping sound, clearly indicating that they were hollow inside.
Sure enough, there was something else going on here. Old Dao kicked the wall again, and this time he kicked a big hole in it.
To our surprise, a huge bridal chamber was found inside the hole, filled with many, many women.
We were stunned by the sheer number of people!
I glanced around and counted; there were at least 200 people.
Good heavens, he's keeping a mistress hidden away!
As expected, this Abbot Hongshi fits my preconceived notions about monks.
"So many people! But thinking about it, it makes sense! After all, there are so many monks in the temple, that's two people per monk!"
Luo Tianhe clicked his tongue and sighed.
I don't know what to say now. It truly lives up to its reputation as a sacred Buddhist site; it has never disappointed in terms of being disappointing.
Meanwhile, Lao Dao and Ant had already gone inside and were driving the women out one by one.
I scanned them one by one using the Sky Eye, and these women are all innocent.
Although he also possessed that evil aura, it was likely left behind by the red stone.
I had the ants gather these women together and keep them under guard, then I selected two of the bolder ones to begin interrogation.
We originally thought these women were just playthings for those monks.
But we later realized we were completely wrong; I had greatly underestimated the abilities of Abbot Hongshi.
These 200 or so women all served this Abbot Hongshi!
We were all stunned when we heard these words.
"Fuck you!"
I couldn't help but swear.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it was real.
