Chapter 103: [103] The Identity Of Shan Taiye

Chapter 103 [103] The identity of Master Shan

The lifespan of a monster is much longer than that of a human race. If it wasn’t for Mangqiu Liu’s explanation, Ning Xiu would never have guessed that he was four hundred and sixteen years old.

But correspondingly, the difficulty for monsters to cultivate will be far more difficult than for humans.

One hundred years of enlightenment, one hundred years of wisdom, one hundred years of cultivation, and one hundred years of small success.

These are the four most difficult initial stages of a monster. Only after passing through these four stages can it be considered a relatively powerful monster.

Like Mangqiu Liu and Hu Taigu, they belong to this stage of monsters.

The ancestors of the Mang Sect Grotto were not born, and snake monsters like Mangqiu Liu were one of the talkers in the Mang Sect Grotto.

And since she has to leave the mountains and go to the outside world to meet the people, Mrs. Hu naturally can no longer show her face in the image of a fox walking upright, which will definitely attract a lot of people’s attention.

So she turned into an ordinary-looking young girl, and no one should notice her appearance in the crowd.

This suddenly accompanied the two great immortals, Taigu Hu and Mangqiuliu, and Chang Fenghai was very excited. In this area of Donghai Prefecture, the status of demons was very high, and they were especially respected by Wu Zhu.

As soon as he got out of the mountain, Jiaolong, who was waiting on the spot, saw Ning Xiu’s figure, and immediately ran over with his claws cheerfully. The two monsters Hu and Mang were stunned by the expressions of this behemoth.

It would be false to say that the demon clan has no noble or inferior. How can ordinary beasts be compared with the Jiaolong? Although the Jiaolong does not have the real blood in the mythology, it also has the shape of a dragon and the blood of a dragon.

So when they saw the flood dragon appear, both Taigu Hu and Mang Qiuliu looked surprised, wondering why there was a flood dragon in this place in Donghai Prefecture.

“Don’t panic, you two, this dragon is familiar to me,” Ning Xiu said.

Mangqiu looked at Jiaolong with admiration: “Master Ning is really powerful.”

Jackie Chan is the dream of every scaly monster, such as turtles, fish, crocodiles, snakes, etc., all have the opportunity to transform into dragons. As one of them, Mang Qiuliu knows that Jiaolong has the greatest chance of transforming into dragons, so his eyes are very envious. .

“Don’t talk about this, when I came, I asked Liu Mei to store Granny Ma’s body in the village. It’s not too late. I’ll rush over and perform the first seven revival techniques on Granny Ma.” Ning Xiu said.

When they sat on the back of Jiaolong and hurried all the way to the village where Liu Mei was, they found a lot of thick smoke floating on the horizon in the distance, and a pillar of fire shot into the sky, just like a sign of a big fire.

“That seems…” Chang Fenghai frowned.

“Fight the fire! Fight the fire!”

“Quickly put out the fire, why can’t this fire be put out.”

Outside the fishing village where Liu Mei lives, I heard a lot of anxious shouting from the village. The fishermen who did not go out to fish ran around with buckets, just to put out the fire in the village.

But the effect was not very obvious. The houses built of wooden planks were constantly attacked by flames, which gradually increased the increase of the fire.

Ning Xiu didn’t say much. He jumped directly from the back of the dragon and entered the village quickly. This season is not a dry and fire season.

Now that there is a fire, things are really weird, but you have to take care of Granny Ma’s body quickly to prevent accidents.

However, Ning Xiu and the others arrived quite late. The fishing village was deeply affected by the fire. If there was no immortal master who was good at water movement, it would be difficult to put out the fire in a short period of time.

“Sir, don’t worry, leave the firefighting to me.” Hu Taigu followed Ning Xiu into the village and said confidently.

“Does the aunt have this method? Then I’ll trouble you.” Ning Xiu said immediately.

Seeing Mrs. Hu sitting cross-legged on the ground with her hands on her knees, she had already started the practice. Suddenly, the entire fishing village was gusty, sweeping all the sand grains on the ground and turning it into a dust storm to wash away the limelight. of fire.

The fire was put out with sand, and the fire was quickly brought under control. The houses were slapped with yellow sand, and the flames were extinguished in just a few blinks of an eye.

After the fire was under control, Ning Xiu immediately searched for Liumei in the village, and finally found Liumei in a half-burned house.

Unfortunately, she was already dead, with a **** cut on her neck.

“It seems that someone has prepared the first seven resurrection techniques in advance.” Mang Qiuliu said, looking at the burned coffin in the house.

This coffin was used to contain the body of Granny Ma. Now, the coffin and the body are both burned to ashes in this fire that I don’t know who set it up.

According to Mang Qiuliu’s statement, after the corpse was burned, the connection with the soul was completely cut off, so they could no longer use the first seven revival techniques, and they were completely unable to contact the soul of Granny Ma.

“Now that the clue is broken, trying to find out the identity of the black hand is like looking for a needle in a haystack.” Chang Fenghai shook his head helplessly.

Ning Xiu put down Liu Mei’s corpse and asked with a gloomy face, “Is there any other way for the two great immortals, if I can’t find out the identity of the black hand this time, this matter can only be handed over to the Fu Mo Si. Divided to many subduing lieutenants to act on their behalf together.”

When he came to Donghai Prefecture this time, Ning Xiu’s purpose was to find the Demon Buddha and take him to the Four Elephants of the Outer Territory. .

Therefore, if the loss of the child cannot be resolved in a short time, Ning Xiu can only report the matter to Tianmu Tower.

But not all demon-defending captains are as easy to get along with as Ning Xiu. Some demon-subduing captains pay attention to prudent investigations, while others are slaughtered. In order to complete the task, they can do everything. Wei, even if Rao is a demon, it will also be a headache.

“Master Ning, don’t worry, leave this matter to me.” Mangqiu Liu responded immediately.

I saw him reach out and pat the ground, and after a while, the ground was dug up, and a small-eyed gopher emerged from the ground.

“Shenxian, what’s the matter?” Gopher asked in a slurred voice.

“Let me ask you a question. If you leave this village within an hour, you can help me find them. You will definitely be grateful if you do.” Mangqiuliu cupped his hands.

“This is not a trivial matter. According to the old rules, I want three snakes and golden grasses.”

“Yes.” Mang Qiuliu replied without hesitation.

“Wait a minute.” Leaving those words, the gopher burrowed back into the ground again.

“Master Ning, this is the immortal of the Su family. He is best at finding people and things. If they come out, we should be able to find the real culprit soon. We will wait here for a while.”

If you want to ask the demon to take action, the advantage is to be given. In order to help Ning Xiu, Mangqiu Liu is also willing to give it up this time.

Snake saliva golden grass is a very expensive herbal medicine. It has the effect of helping monsters to increase their cultivation speed. It can only be spawned by snakes and pythons. On weekdays, other monsters have nowhere to go.

So once the Mang Zong Cave asks other demons to help with things, all the other party asks for will be this thing.

While working at the Dixian of the Su family, Ning Xiu carried Liu Mei’s body out of the house. First, he stole children from people’s homes, and now he set fire to kill people in order to destroy the corpses. It was an unforgivable crime.

…

Pang Chao took a few villagers to run wildly in the mountains and forests. After leaving the village, he followed the order of Master Shan, not to go back to the village, but went to the mountain to meet Master Shan, and the other party would explain some things to Pang Chao.

“Wu Zhu, I can still accept arson. Is this killing too much of a line? If someone from the government finds out, we will inevitably get a knife.” A villager asked worriedly.

Pang Chao turned his head and said viciously, “Stop talking nonsense, do you think we won’t get stabbed for the things we’ve been doing for Mr. Shan, we guys from Fengmeng Village have long been no good people. already.”

Hearing this, everyone sighed, and it was indeed as Pang Chao said.

Over the years, in order to ask Mr. Shan to transport them for their village, they did not hesitate to kidnap and kidnap the children and send them to Mr. Shan as a tribute.

They have long since ceased to be human, and they have sinned deeply, and they are afraid of more evil deeds.

“I just don’t know what happened this time. Mr. Shan actually needed us to do things in person, which was rare before.” Pang Chao couldn’t help muttering secretly.

The group did not notice that in the forest behind them, the ground was inexplicably swelled, and several gophers of different colors were burrowing out of the soil.

“Jeep jiji!”

“Squeak!”

Several gophers called to each other, then nodded to confirm.

The olfactory perception of rodents is extremely sensitive, and for gophers who live underground all year round, it is even more sensitive.

After Pang Chao and the others set fire to escape, they thought the traces were covered up clean, but they didn’t want to smell this thing, it would not be cleaned up in a short time, and it happened that Su Family Dixian found him right.

So a few gophers stayed behind and continued to follow, while the other gophers turned and left, preparing to bring the news back to the village and inform Yu Ningxiu and his party.

…

Skillfully advanced in the mountains, walking through the bushes, and finally the gloomy stone temple came into the eyes of Pang Chao and several others.

Although it is not the first time that he has come here, every time he arrives here, Pang Chao will feel inexplicably depressed, as if there is a terrifying monster in that stone temple, and it is possible to devour the trespassers at any time. .

went up the steps and came to the gate of the stone temple, Pang Chao respectfully saluted and shouted: “Master Shan, we are here.”

Hu Hu Hu! ~

A large amount of yin wind emanated from the depths of the stone temple, causing Pang Chao and the others to shiver.

In the cloudy wind, the mist rose, and a thin figure slowly walked out of the darkness in the stone temple.

was a short, thin old man who was snow-white but covered with sores, and there were not a few hairs left on his head.

This person was dressed in tattered dark blue robes, exuding a stinky stench, and there were many white seedlings that looked like potatoes sprouted on his face, which could be described as an indescribable evil.

“I have seen Master Shan.” Pang Chao and the others said clearly after seeing the appearance of the old man in front of them.

“The things I explained have been done.” The old man’s voice was unusually hoarse, and his eyes were chaotic and dirty, as if he was blind.

But even so, Pang Chao didn’t dare to look at him, so he lowered his head and replied: “Master Shan, everything is done, that Wu Zhu’s body was completely burned by me with fire, and there was a woman who found us later. , was also killed by me, and will never leave any clues.”

“Jie Jie Jie, very good, come in with me.” Master Shan turned around and walked into the depths of the temple.

At this time, Pang Chao was able to see clearly the appearance behind Shan Taiye.

The skin is open to the flesh, but the skin is not flesh, but a white body similar to paste. White seedlings grow out of Shan Taiye’s body, lush and numerous.

“This…” Pang Chao looked suspicious, but he didn’t dare to say anything.

Fengmeng Village used to have another Wuzhu, but later he was replaced by Pang Chao as the new Wuzhu.

The reason for all this has to be mentioned in the past Wu Zhu, when Wu Zhu became attached to a willow tree in the mountain, and used the power of Liu Xian to shelter Fengmeng Village, which also allowed Fengmeng Village to be free from the intrusion of water demons.

But I don’t know why one day later, the willow fairy disappeared suddenly, even with the former Wu Zhu without any warning, without a single greeting to the villagers, the world disappeared.

Fengmeng Village lost Wu Zhu, and the originally impoverished villagers became even more hopeless. At this time, Pang Chao, who had no talent, was selected by the sudden appearance of Mr. Shan, and he was willing to form a bond with him and support him. Pang Chao is the sorcerer of Fengmeng Village.

In order to help everyone in the village get rid of this unseen life, Pang Chao is willing to follow Shan Taiye and do various bad things for him in exchange for the transfer to the village, and he has embarked on a road of no return.

And after so many years, Pang Chao never knew what kind of monster Shan Taiye’s body was.

Seeing Master Shan’s back, Pang Chao was even more puzzled.

Followed Shan Taiye all the way to the inside of the stone temple, and a spacious hall came into the eyes of everyone.

In this hall, there are several piles of braziers burning with blue flames, and above each brazier hangs a human corpse that cannot be seen clearly.

Because it happened to be scorched by the flames, drips of grease oozing out of the corpse continued to fall into the brazier, which intensified the fire.

In this scene, even though Pang Chao and others did a lot of bad things, they couldn’t help feeling a little creepy after seeing it.

In the center of the hall, there are a lot of bones without heads, piled up there like garbage, but it adds to the feeling of a devil’s cave in this place.

“Master Shan, why did you ask us to come here? There are still things in the village waiting for me to deal with. It’s not good for me to go out for too long.” Pang Chao asked out of nowhere.

“You have been loyal and loyal to the Empress over the years, and the Empress is very satisfied.” Shan Taiye stared at Pang Chao and smiled: “Today, I will let you see the real face of the Empress.”

On weekdays, Pang Chao would definitely be overjoyed to hear Master Shan say this, but the current situation made him inexplicably have a bad premonition.

Before that, let alone meeting the mysterious empress, Taiye Shan wouldn’t even let them in at the gate of the stone temple. At this moment, something abnormal must have clues.

As Master Shan clapped his palm, one wall of the hall suddenly separated automatically, revealing another space behind the wall.

An ancient black tree with no treetops above and no roots below, only a trunk in the middle appeared in front of everyone.

At the moment when they saw this ancient tree, including Pang Chao, everyone subconsciously took a step back, and their expressions were extremely frightened.

On the surface of the ancient tree, there were actually a large number of children’s faces, and they were so crowded with each other that there seemed to be at least hundreds of them.

These faces are either crying, laughing, scowling, or quirky.

“Master Shan, this, this is!” Pang Chao asked in a trembling tone.

Although he had thought before that Shan Taiye and that mysterious empress were not good demons, but he never thought that empress would look like this, it was too evil.

“Pang Chao, it’s really thanks to you that I have sealed Mengcun over the years.” Master Shan said gloomily.

“I heard the tone of this speech, you…!” An idea suddenly flashed in Pang Chao’s mind, and he said in disbelief, “Could it be that you are!”
