Based on the anomalies Xihe described, this village really looked like an enlarged version of a pigsty.
It’s just that the pigs in the pigsty have become spirits.
As for the fact that there are ten fewer every year, doesn’t that mean they are being dragged out and slaughtered?
If you look at it this way, everything makes sense.
"This place is more likely reserved for sacrifices."
Ye Fan was born in the Ye family. Although the Ye family was not a first-class family, it was not bad either. Although he was a marginal person in the Ye family, he still knew a lot of things.
Unlike Si Lingfeng, although he is the head of the family, he leaves all the sacrificial matters to the elders.
All she needs to do is grab real power.
Generally, for the purpose of sacrifice, the family would set aside a piece of land, raise some livestock, plant some plants, send out some illegitimate sons and daughters with no future to take care of it, or hire some mortals.
Although it is said that when a monk dies, his body is extinguished like a candle, and he may not even leave behind a corpse, but since he has descendants, he must give them something to think about.
Everyone knows that this sacrifice is nothing more than remembering the ancestors.
"...So we're going to pursue the great path in the pigpen?"
Ye Fan has not forgotten his description of this tower, saying that it can pursue the great way.
But looking at this, could it be that what they are pursuing is actually the path of "How to Get Rich by Raising Pigs" and "The Years I Got Rich by Raising Pigs"?
They don’t specialize in raising pigs!
Perhaps Qingcheng Gate is more suitable here.
They are good at taming animals and their expertise is matched with theirs.
"Two hundred years ago, no one disappeared anymore. So, what happened two hundred years ago?"
Si Lingfeng knocked on the table. The changes Xihe mentioned all started two hundred years ago.
The history of this cave is definitely more than two hundred years.
"I know!"
Si Ruoyun raised her little fleshy hand, shook her head and began to speak.
She was forced to study in the mountains, and the history books she read were arranged according to the centuries.
Let’s go back one hundred years or so, to two hundred years ago, Si Ruoyun happened to have read it.
Then Si Lingfeng and the others were filled with gossip.
Which one came out, which one gave birth to a baby, which one found a new love...
There are also the fall of powerful people, etc.
After all, there haven't been any major events in the world of cultivation in recent years, so the anecdotes of those famous and powerful people have become the mainstream of records.
"Wait, two hundred years ago, Lin Shuangxue, who was born in the north, died..."
Si Lingfeng quickly extracted a useful piece of information from the gossip that Si Ruoyun said.
This cave is located in the north and was most likely left behind by a northern cultivator. The only powerful northern cultivator who died two hundred years ago was Lin Shuangxue.
Lin Shuangxue is also a cultivator with water spiritual roots. She is unlucky. When she was weak, she was captured and used as a cauldron. She endured hardships for many years and after struggling to form a pill, she burst out with the power of a cultivator with water spiritual roots.
Those monks who were tending the furnaces were skinned and their tendons were removed, and then they were tortured to death.
At that time, because the methods used were too bloody, Lin Shuangxue was warned by several sects.
Then these sects dug out the ashes of those monks and scattered them.
Which serious and righteous sect would not be extremely disgusted with the matter of raising furnaces and cauldrons?
What did the girl with water spiritual roots do wrong?
Those monks back then were not only skinned and their tendons pulled out, their bones crushed and scattered into ashes, but even their souls were tortured back in the same way they had tortured Lin Shuangxue.
Later, Lin Shuangxue was taken away by one of the sects. After several decades, when all the hidden injuries on Lin Shuangxue's body were healed, Lin Shuangxue appeared in public again.
But it was because of the love-hate relationship between Lin Shuangxue and a male cultivator.
To sum it up in one sentence, it is a story about a male cultivator who wanted to live off his wife and tricked Lin Shuangxue, but was later killed by Lin Shuangxue.
Lin Shuangxue is also a strange person, decisive and never dragging her feet, but she happens to be a love-brained person.
However, Lin Shuangxue's death was not due to love, but because she failed to break through by force and died.
"So, this cave could have been left behind by Lin Shuangxue?"
Ye Fan touched his chin.
Among the northern cultivators, Lin Shuangxue is indeed the only one who can leave behind such a cave.
"Not necessarily. Lin Shuangxue is an upright person and would never do such a thing."
Si Lingfeng shook his head. According to the records, Lin Shuangxue was a man who hated evil. If it was really left by Lin Shuangxue, what about those puppets in front?
Those puppets don't have Lin Shuangxue's personality.
Cheng Yu didn't say anything, just watched the group of disciples discuss. He looked at Si Lingyu who had been silent all the time, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Si Lingyu's performance is not only inferior to Si Lingfeng and Ye Fan, but is also several points worse than Si Ruoyun.
It seems that I still need to practice more.
This was just Cheng Yu's thought, and he never said it out loud.
Si Lingyu naturally didn't know what her master was thinking. She just looked at Si Lingfeng with resentment.
Is she so willing to be in the spotlight?
Obviously, Si Lingyu overlooked one thing. It was not because Si Lingfeng wanted to be in the spotlight, but because Si Lingyu himself could not say anything.
She couldn't even see Xihe's true form.
"That means we're stuck in a dead end again."
As soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, he heard a pig-slaughtering scream. Several people looked at each other, rushed out, and ran towards the source of the sound.
Then he saw Xihe lying on the ground, no longer making any sound.
"He's dead?"
