Food Fairy Lord

Chapter 287 Sacrifice Realm

The ancient house was quiet and dark. When Li Mingqing pressed her sword and walked slowly to the backyard, the cold stars in the sky dimmed.

When we asked each other at noon, the servant said that he could not go to the backyard. Now that Li Mingqing was standing here, he understood the reason. The backyard was where the servants lived, and those silent people were nowhere to be seen.

"Save it for later use." After the conversation with Pei Ye, Li Mingqing repeated in a low voice, "So. Is this ceremony called [Chuanzhao] feeding the blood of the Yi family one by one to the son of Lingzhao? "

"Not sure yet." The black cat's blue eyes looked ahead seriously, "But the Immortal Lord does maintain an 'oracle'-like connection with the Zhushi Sect."

"Oracle." Li Mingqing muttered and repeated.

"The place where the Zhushi Cult received the edict. They can exercise the will of the Immortal Lord in the human world, and they should have a way to listen to the edict."

".A place like this should be very important to a sect."

"Yes, but Zhu Shijiao was defeated in Xin Cang, so this place is empty. Pei Ye also said just now that they are preparing to leave." Black Cat said, "This should be the last ceremony before they leave. .”

Li Mingqing said no more. At this time, she had reached the back wall. This was the route she had taken according to the instructions of the kitten. She pursed her lips and pressed her sword. The old wooden door was embedded in the wall, with dead grass growing on both sides. The girl slowly walked Pushing open the door, the autumn wind in the open mountains and fields suddenly ruffled the skirt of her clothes.

With the sound of wind and shadows in the forest, Li Mingqing raised his eyes and saw that in the distance, faintly, the shadow of the Qiubao stele stood under the moon, and a house was shining with some light from a distance.

Yi Chengxin is walking in.

Just disappeared.

At the same time, a wooden wall silently dissolved under the blue flames, and the situation inside fell into the girl's eyes.

As his knees fell to the ground, like the wind blowing over reeds, everyone in the temple knelt down silently.

Li Mingqing was startled for a moment and listened carefully.

When she was nearly four feet tall, the girl held her breath and stood quietly behind a tall pine tree.

Li Mingqing tried to pass her thoughts on: "Okay."

Li Mingqing indeed didn't move anymore.

Then the girl still tied her hands, crossed the altar table, and walked forward.

The high priest fell to the ground and whispered: "Please test the blood of the dragonborn."

It was like pouring water into the water, and the bright red blood disappeared without a trace. But the next moment, the flames in the cauldron suddenly rose unexpectedly. Li Mingqing even subconsciously dodged, and the momentum seemed to burn up the roof.

Li Mingqing nodded and passed over silently, like a night bird among the grass and trees.

After saying this, the high priest took a step back and knelt down on the ground.

Through a thin wall, Daiji's ghostly gray eyes suddenly locked onto this place!

After the ceremony, he seemed to suddenly regain his awareness of his surroundings. Li Mingqing was startled and was about to draw her sword when a claw pressed down on the back of her hand, and the black cat's calm voice sounded in her ears: "Don't move. .”

"The Yi Family Sacrifice Temple, when I just fainted, the black-robed priest walked in there holding a fire."

With a light weight on his shoulders, Li Mingqing turned his head sharply, but only saw a faint trace of air in the night sky.

Li Mingqing watched this scene silently, then suddenly his eyes narrowed and his pupils slowly dilated.

Only then did Li Mingqing see the reason for her awkward movements - her delicate white wrists were tied together by black silk, leaving only a very small range of movement.

There's a lot of breathing and heartbeating in there.

Li Mingqing was startled for a moment. The black cat had melted the latch of the high window next to it and pushed open a slit. Li Mingqing moved over, and the situation in the back hall came into view.

In the middle of two rows of kneeling people, a slender figure slowly walked out from the cover, walked straight forward, and stopped in front of the fire cauldron.

In the hall full of roses and blues, the high priest led everyone to stand up, raising his hands high: "Tongmai Zhaozi, after the ceremony of worshiping the immortals, Xu went to the forest to pass the imperial edict."

The girl looked around quietly, her eyes fixed on a tall tree outside the ancestral hall, and she turned her head and cast a questioning look over her shoulder. The black cat nodded, and she quietly swooped up.

When the flame fell in his eyes, Li Mingqing immediately widened his eyes and turned to look at the black cat beside him.

Nearly twenty servants gathered here at this time, and their silence was no longer abrupt at this time. Among the Gushan tombs, under the Youhuo Temple, the strange solemnity made the girl quietly check herself again. breathing.

Li Mingqing was about to take a closer look, but at this moment, a chill suddenly appeared on her body.

The next moment, a man in black robes flew out from the door of the ancestral hall like an eagle.

The remaining people in the hall also took action immediately, some chased them out, and some still stayed in the hall. Li Mingqing remained motionless, waiting quietly for everything to calm down.

Black Cat's voice sounded directly in his heart this time: "[Quail Head] can temporarily communicate. You can monitor the news here first. I will be back within half an hour."

Yi Chengxin cut the palm of her hand with the blade and looked down at the bright red blood flowing out and hanging into a thin line into the cauldron.

"Looking up to the ancient times, the universe is infinite and the spiritual wisdom is chaotic; Panwa shows his power, and the black and yellow begin to separate... We look up to the Taiyi True Dragon Immortal Lord, who succeeds the sky and establishes the ultimate, the divine rule; all living beings bow their heads, and all the spirits follow. ...In this life, thousands of years have passed, and the stars have changed, but the holy will never fades, and the immortal body is always there. The family members are faint from the mortal world, and it is difficult to listen to the holy edict. Fortunately, there are descendants of gods, and the blood of immortals is passed down from their bodies. Now I serve as a new servant on the stage. Next, preach the gospel to the Holy King."

Yi Chengxin.

More than twenty people stood up and worshiped again. The girl in front of the cauldron said nothing and put the dagger back on the table with both hands.

At the same time, the magical feeling she had experienced once in Bixiao Pavilion flooded into her mind again. With a thought in her mind, everything suddenly became clear.

But the black cat did not speak, and the low voice of the high priest could be heard in the temple below.

As soon as this sentence was settled, she was froze by another fact.

The girl's shoulders were straight, and her peaceful face was reflected in the faint blue flames, which also gave it a more eerie feeling. She stood in front of the cauldron, raising her hands to the cauldron, her left hand was free, and she held a small knife in her right hand.

In her vision and touch, the black cat's soft little claws were clearly and quickly transforming into something else. Tough, delicate, smooth, and sharp. The texture of jade as cool as iron was formed on the back of her hand. The sharp and handsome claws came into view, but before the girl's astonished eyes could follow the claws, this divine object appeared. Already drifting away from the body.

It was indeed a tall ancestral hall, with the roof higher than an ordinary two-story building. It seemed still quiet inside at this time, but Li Mingqing didn't take another step closer, and her face tightened little by little.

Li Pingqing could see clearly from this angle. The bright red was submerged into the faint blue, and a pool of red should have emerged on the thick liquid surface, but nothing happened.

Under the temple, silent people in white robes were divided into two sloping rows, standing quietly and solemnly without moving. In front of them, the old ghost-like high priest had his back to everyone, standing in a cauldron of blue liquid. Before the fire, hold the book and bow your head.

The reply came immediately: "Yeah."

At this time, Li Mingqing moved his eyes to the crack of the window again.

The commotion just now did not disturb the back hall at all, only Yi Chengxin glanced ahead.

There are six people in the hall. In addition to Yi Chengxin, Yi Nandai, who is blindfolded and holding a gun, is also standing here. The remaining four are in Mo Qing's clothes, motionless, like dead wood, with their exposed skin so white that it's scary. .

After the five people surrounded the arch, a deep entrance opened on the ground.

It seems to be a direct connection to Jiuyou. Li Mingqing immediately had an uncontrollable association - these four people came out of here.

In a moment of sluggishness, Yi Chengxin in the audience withdrew her gaze, and then took a step that caught Li Mingqing off guard - she headed towards the entrance of the cave.

Between "the ritual of worshiping immortals" and "entering the purple bamboo forest", was there no pause? So what she said about chatting with me again at night?

But she didn't have the mood to think about this. Li Mingqing looked at the girl's unstoppable pace, wondering if the "Edict" was going to start now. She turned her head and glanced at the night sky where the black cat disappeared, but there was no trace of it.

Looking back, the ceremony in the hall was still going on.

It is indeed a "ceremony". Even though there is no chanting or flames, in the silence, the rich solemnity fills the entire space. The people in green clothes were arranged in four directions, looking down at the entrance of the cave. Even the angle of their chins was exactly the same. Yi Nandai said nothing. In the empty space, the girl's echoing footsteps were as lonely as her temperament.

In such secluded silence, Yi Nandai suddenly said: "Cheng Xin."

The man's voice was as flat and short as at noon.

Yi Chengxin stopped and turned around.

Yi Nandai stretched out his hand and handed her a piece of color. Li Mingqing looked at it and saw that it was a bracelet.

Yi Chengxin was slightly startled, took it and put it on his wrist, then nodded, turned around and walked straight into the deep entrance.

The girl's dress was completely swallowed by the hole, and four men in green descended one after another, leaving only one man in the hall.

Li Pingqing looked at it with some last hope, but the man made no move in the end, and the heavy stone door was slowly closing.

It's controlled from within.

Li Mingqing glanced back at the night sky again, but there was still no trace of the black cat coming back. In the hall, the stone door was more than half closed.

The girl's eyebrows were sharp.

At this moment, her eyes lit up. The man who stayed in the hall finally took a step forward, carrying his cloth-wrapped spear and heading out.

Li Mingqing immediately leaned forward with her sword in hand, staring at the threshold with her peripheral vision. The moment the man's boots stepped over, she immediately opened the window and stepped on the branch. A bird-like green shadow passed by, at the stone door. In the last gap before closing, the girl's slender and straight figure sank into it.

At this moment, she seemed to feel that the figure that had stepped over the threshold cast its eyes on her. Qisheng's lock made her feel chills, but in the end, no gun shadow chased after her.

The stone door was completely closed, and the last layer of diffuse light disappeared from around her. Li Mingqing slowly stood upright on the steps.

Even the sound of the wind has disappeared here, it is a pitch-black silence that truly makes the ears ring, and the five people who just came down are no longer in sight.

"Kitty cat, I'm coming in." Li Mingqing gave a general overview of the situation around him, "They are moving forward, I want to follow them and have a look."

After a moment of silence, the black cat's voice came over: "Be careful, find a way out first, tell me if you have anything."

"Ah."

Li Mingqing first turned around and pressed the stone slab, and the influx of true energy was blocked in the middle.

Be it a formation or some spiritual material, this stone door cannot be shaken at all.

When he reached out and touched it, he saw damp and cold walls on both sides. As expected, he didn't find any switch mechanism. The "key" that opens the door to this formation obviously only belongs to those people in green.

After standing in this isolated darkness for a while, and gradually getting used to it, a faint blue light appeared at the lower edge of the girl's field of vision.

The steps are downward.

But the far depth and slope really made the girl purse her lips. She pressed her steps and vigilantly moved her sword horizontally downwards, and when she reached this point of light, another deep light spot appeared. below.

How deep is this?

Li Ningqing's heart and lungs relaxed carefully, and the dampness and coldness became more and more intense. The girl had never had such an experience before. She really felt that she had entered the realm of Nine Netherworlds, with only the floating blue flames guiding the ghost path.

After shooting six blue flames in a row, the girl finally stepped onto the straight road.

In a round room, there was still only one firework. Li Mingqing took a few steps forward with the help of the faint light, and two passages appeared in front of her.

"."

There was no landmark. Li Pingqing carefully inspected the ground, but there were many hard rocks and no footprints.

Just when the girl frowned, her gaze suddenly became fixed - a drop of half-dried blood appeared on the ground in the left passage.

Early in the morning at Bixiao Pavilion, the girl's smiling voice suddenly came to mind: "I don't practice martial arts."

The cut made by the knife just now was so deep that the girl, who had no real energy in her body, still couldn't stop bleeding.

Li Mingqing followed immediately.

When this passage was short, the number of blue flames gradually increased and floated in the air. In this brightness, some sharp protrusions caught the girl's attention.

There were several small purple cone-shaped ore bodies protruding from the ground, walls, and even the top. Li Qing took a closer look and saw that their texture was brittle and tough, and the condensation on the surface was not ore. They were clearly bamboo shoots!

The forest of purple bamboo.

The girl's mind suddenly froze.

The unknown mystery really shrouded her mind at this time.

Of course bamboo cannot grow underground, let alone purple bamboo, let alone growing on rocks.

Li Mingqing stretched her hand on the hilt of the sword, and worry did come over her.

What is Blue Flame, and what is Zizhu? Without the black cat by her side, she is just a girl with only zhenqi and a sword. She can't influence anything she sees along the way.

If she goes further, even if she sees the [Chuanzhao], even if she sees the formation of Yuke and enters the forest of purple bamboo, what can she do?

This is the world of Lingxuan.

But she could only move forward. The girl frowned and walked slowly. When the stone wall opened, there was another room in front of her.

But here Li Mingqing stopped.

She suddenly realized that she might not be alone.

In the room in front of him, there was an iron cage in the center, and a girl with her hands bound sat in it with her legs crossed. She was holding the bloody handkerchief in her palm, and with her other hand she was pulling up the colorful ring on her wrist.

She looked at the empty space with a calm expression, as if she had long been accustomed to such a fate.

At this moment, she seemed to sense something. She suddenly turned around and looked at the girl in green who was standing silently at the entrance of the passage. Her expression was stunned for a moment.
