Before Yu Qing reached the foot of the mountain, he received a call from Yu Huilian.
Tang Heyan woke up.
He suddenly woke up at the moment when the high priest's soul dissipated.
Yu Huilian asked her on the phone if she had done anything, but Yu Qing didn't explain. "Mom, I'll be back in two days, don't worry."
"It's good that you have your own ideas. Mom won't interfere with you, but you have to be careful." Yu Huilian's voice on the other end of the phone was relieved.
Yu Qing could hear Tang Heyan talking nearby. She stopped by the truck outside the village and said, "Mom, I have something else to do. I'll hang up first."
…
…
The third level of security gate of the village was full of people. The leading ones had serious expressions. When they saw the high priest coming back from outside, they hurried forward.
"High Priest, the illusion created by the barrier has been destroyed. Is there something wrong with the Snow Wolf?"
Yu Qing, who had transformed into the appearance of a high priest, grasped the wooden staff and asked, "Are the magic tools in my room still there?"
The high priest was able to completely seal the snow wolf mainly by relying on the magic weapon.
The person who answered didn't have too many concerns: "I have people guarding the door since the incident. No one has entered, and we dare not rush in rashly."
"Well done." Yu Qing nodded. "Give orders to everyone, including the girls, to gather here. I'm going to cast a spell."
"Okay." The man ordered his men to bring people over without hesitation.
No one found it strange. Perhaps they thought that something had happened suddenly in the mountain and the high priest needed those girls to cast a spell to restore things to their original state.
A few people who had seen snow wolves moved particularly quickly, as they were well aware of how dangerous they were.
The people in the village were in a hurry, like a group of worker ants migrating with their families, moving back and forth in the village in dense crowds. Many girls wearing hoods were taken away rudely.
At the same time, Yu Qing on the other side had already arrived at the door of the high priest's room.
She found an excuse to send the guard away, pinched out a talisman and placed it on the handle. With a "click", a chilling air emanated from the slightly opened door.
The room was dimly lit, with only a little more light than a candle casting a shadow.
There was a wine glass next to the leather sofa, and the cigarette butts in the ashtray had not been dealt with. The cold and gloomy air in the room and the lingering smell of cigarettes mixed together, making it very unpleasant.
The curtains were drawn tightly, blocking out any light. A wooden box, a bit like a pencil case from the 1990s, was locked in a transparent glass display case near the edge of the windowsill.
Yu Qing touched the lock and studied it for a while. The source of the surrounding Yin energy was exactly what was emitted from the wooden box.
After confirming that the lock was just a piece of scrap, Yu Qing directly destroyed the lock core, tore the lock apart roughly, opened the glass display case, and took out the wooden box inside.
Just about to open——
“???”
A strange rustling sound came from behind, and it was impossible to tell who the owner of the sound was.
A sudden chill hit his ears, and Yu Qing quickly dodged and turned around to look.
“Crackle!”
A humanoid corpse, completely black and seemingly burned by fire, smashed the glass display case. The next second, it pounced towards Yu Qing without feeling any pain.
Except for the door and windows, black shadows gradually appeared on the rest of the walls in the room, as if they were "spitted out" by the walls.
It was exactly the same corpse as the one that had attacked her just now.
The charcoal-burned corpses gradually surrounded the girl by the window.
…
“Knock, knock.”
The guard responsible for notifying the high priest stood outside the door. When the door opened, a talisman flew towards him and stuck to his forehead.
The visitor seemed to have already taken off the talisman paper as if he was already used to it. He showed some doubts only when he saw the golden light flashing in the house, but he did not take the next step.
In his eyes, the room was pitch black, with only occasional flashes of golden light visible.
When the light completely disappeared and no more light appeared, he spoke respectfully: "High Priest, all personnel have been arranged."
About two seconds later, the high priest's voice rang out from inside the house: "Got it, I'll be right there."
The guard closed the door considerately and turned to go downstairs.
In the room, Yu Dan grabbed the last corpse with one hand. The body was burned into mottled pieces like charcoal. The flames burning from the inside did not burn her at all.
After dealing with the last burnt corpse, Yu Qing did not go out immediately, but picked up the wooden box again. This time, nothing stopped her.
The wooden box was slowly opened, and the magical instruments inside were once again exposed to light.
The flute is emerald green, with one end flat and the other slightly pointed, forming a semi-triangular shape, as if a bamboo flute had been cut in half by a knife.
The bamboo flute does not have a flute hole, so I am not sure if it can be played, and I don’t know its specific use.
Yu Qing put the bamboo flute away and then left the room.
There were a lot of people in the village, including the girls who were originally imprisoned, gathered below. It was noisy and many people were whispering to each other.
The crowd suddenly quieted down until the high priest appeared. The young man in black robe who was first met at the foot of the mountain was also in the crowd.
Compared with the standing men of different ages, the girls look particularly pitiful.
Some girls were half-naked and had bruises on their bodies to varying degrees.
There are also some girls who look healthy, with fair skin and round figures, but their slightly bulging bellies obviously indicate that they are pregnant. Next to the group of pregnant women should be women who have already given birth.
Occasionally, they couldn't help but touch their chests, and the swelling and pain were not pleasant.
They were all wearing black hoods, and the fear of the unknown spread in the girls' hearts.
Yu Qing stood on the platform at the front of the team, without saying a word. He swept his cold gaze over everyone and let out a light breath.
There were pregnant women and new mothers in the village, but she didn't sense any babies after entering the village, so those babies should be...
The crowd was crowded together, and occasionally a man would unhappily kick away a girl who had squeezed him, even if they did it unintentionally.
Yu Qing suddenly said, "All the sacrifices should be driven to the left, and all of you should go to the right."
Everyone in the village obeyed the high priest's orders. Upon hearing his words, they immediately took action and soon the team was divided into two factions, one for sin and the other for sinful offerings.
Yu Qing looked down at everyone. Fortunately, the high priest did not teach these people any cultivation methods, so they were still ordinary people.
"You also saw the sudden accident on the mountain. I will cast a spell to remedy the situation. You all close your eyes and don't look at what you shouldn't see, otherwise!"
"Don't ask me at midnight why you suddenly died."
The crowd, who had originally found it strange, closed their eyes immediately after hearing this, fearing that they would see something they shouldn't.
In the past, the high priest did not allow outsiders to enter when he was performing sacrifices. He must have been worried about their life and death, but the high priest did not explain it before.
This time there is no other way, so this is what happened.
