Knife splashing

Chapter 501: Suspicion of the Ancient Clan
coming!

Li Yan held the certificate tightly, carefully concealing his breath.

This demonic energy was also very special compared to the others he had seen.

The others were either hiding or making trouble, but they were all running around, and it was very difficult to find any trace of them.

But Zuo Shouquan became a sitting tiger.

Li Yan was also very curious about what kind of person this guy was.

Call ~
The wind was howling and thick fog was gradually rising in the village.

This is purely caused by the evil energy.

This kind of situation occasionally occurs in the wilderness and mountains, which not only attracts nearby wandering ghosts, but also causes strange phenomena such as ghost walls.

But this village is particularly rich.

In just a blink of an eye, thick fog filled the vision, everything became hazy, and various strange noises were faintly heard.

Li Yan pinched his fingers and used all his strength to display his magical powers.

He suddenly turned his head and looked towards the west side of the village, where he smelled a strong smell of corpses and heard the sound of messy footsteps.

There were so many of them, at least hundreds of them.

Not only that, but the sound of a tiger roaring could also be heard faintly in my ears.

Inside the village ancestral hall, everyone in the Du family had also heard it.

They were like they had met their nemesis. They trembled all over, knelt down with their foreheads on the ground, kowtowed to the statue continuously, and chanted spells under their mouths.

But those death warriors with cold faces didn't care at all.

The Du family members kowtowed, while they lowered their heads and worked.

The two large carts were filled with various offerings, even bronze chimes for rituals and music. The most solemn "Tai Lao Ceremony" was used.

After doing this, they took out pieces of blood-stained red ropes from the box and tied them around the necks of the unconscious coachmen.

Li Yan had naturally noticed all of this.

He was not in a hurry. He secretly restrained his breath and waited.

These unfortunate coachmen were obviously the living sacrifices offered by the Du family to the devil. This was just the right time to attract the devil, who would then directly use warrants to arrest them.

But after waiting for a while, Li Yan realized something was wrong.

The smell of corpses coming from outside the village was getting heavier and heavier, and the messy and dense footsteps were getting closer and closer.

Soon, they saw what these things looked like.

This was a group of headless corpses with ragged clothes and festering skin. They were like an army, marching with stiff steps towards the ancestral hall.

It's a zombie!
The so-called walking corpse is a corpse that can walk.

When ordinary people hold funerals, sometimes the corpse in the coffin will suddenly stand up due to bad luck, which is called "resurrection of the corpse".

Startled and frightened.

After reviving their corpse, most of them will lie down again, but some will get up and walk around the house.

Especially places that were familiar to you during your lifetime.

This is the obsession after death, combined with the evil energy.

Compared to zombies, walking corpses are much less dangerous and can be held down by two or three ordinary people.

But these things in front of me are obviously different.

Not only are their numbers frighteningly large, but they are also filled with rich Yin energy, only slightly weaker than zombies, and their movements are also quite agile.

It is the ability of the evil god Zuo Shouquan that allows him to capture his minions.

A large number of ghosts and zombies swarmed into the ancestral hall.

Not only the Du family, but even those death warriors were kneeling on the ground, with their foreheads touching the ground and their eyes tightly closed, as if they were afraid of breaking some taboo.

Snapped!Snapped!
The sound of heavy footsteps rang beside my ears.

The stench of the corpse gas made these people feel nauseous and want to vomit, but no one dared to open their eyes and watch.

Afterwards, these headless zombies formed groups of four, grabbed the coachman's hands and feet, and headed towards the stage opposite.

Li Yan was completely confused.

The evil god hasn't shown up yet, but he's acting so arrogantly.

Is it possible to enjoy the sacrifice?
Still have to perform a play?
Bang, bang, bang!

Before Li Yan could react, a dim yellow light appeared on the stage opposite and the sound of gongs and drums began.

A few blurry figures in costumes were spinning around, as if a real troupe of actors had been invited.

Of course, Li Yan saw through the mystery at a glance.

This is pure illusion.

It only appears particularly realistic because of the strong evil aura.

Afterwards, the coachmen were carried onto the stage, and densely packed headless zombies stood under the stage, looking very much like the audience.

The scene before my eyes was truly bizarre.

Li Yan also had some vague guesses in his mind.

Drama is meant to entertain gods.

The Du family's sacrifice caused such a strange phenomenon.

It seems that the place where the evil god appears is most likely the stage.

Thinking of this, Li Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and used the Xuanshui escape technique again. Under the cover of the "Dragon Snake Card", he circled towards the stage from the side.

But before he got close, his face darkened.

As the gongs and drums sounded, several people from the Du family also moved. They slowly stood up, lifted the huge iron basin together, and walked towards the stage.

Some of them were holding machetes.

As they approached, the headless corpses under the stage turned around one after another.

But at this moment, there was no fear in the eyes of these Du family members. Instead, they looked confused and had completely lost themselves.

The biggest side effect of the obscene priest Zuo Shouquan's practice of "The Art of Longevity by Beheading" is that he has become a lackey of the evil god.

Although he seems free, he has actually become a puppet.

They are going to go up and kill animals for sacrifice.

The evil god will not appear.

Li Yan made a judgment in his mind, and a fierce light suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Originally, the best method was to wait for the evil god to appear, use the hook to suppress it, eliminate the source, and these monsters in front of them would naturally be reduced to ashes.

But now that things have come to this, we can only force him out by force.

Clang!
Without any hesitation, the moment the Du family came on stage, Li Yan drew his sword and jumped onto the stage.

The knife flashed and blood exploded.

Before the two middle-aged men of the Du family could react, the head had already flown up and rolled to the ground, their eyes full of fear and confusion.

There were five people from the Du family on this trip.

Three middle-aged men and two old men.

After the two middle-aged men following behind were killed, the remaining three people turned around suddenly, their faces were ferocious and their eyes were slightly red.

Black smoke began to seep out of their necks and their heads slowly rose.

This is the "Headless Longevity Technique", which is usually very secretive, and it is even difficult to detect that it is a sorcerer. Once the head is cut off, it will be like a flying head barbarian, and can cast all kinds of evil magic to harm people.

Especially the spells, which are specifically aimed at the soul and are extremely powerful.

Li Yan would never give him time.

Two soul-breaking flying knives whizzed out, and with two "pu pu" sounds, the two hearts of the flesh bodies lying on the ground were pierced directly.

The weak point of this thing is not the head.

Even if the head is destroyed, it will turn into an evil creature and continue to cause trouble.

The heart was pierced and the two heads fell to the ground.

At the same time, Li Yan had already raised his foot and rushed out, swung the Dust-Breaking Knife in his right hand, and stabbed downwards suddenly.

"slow!"

The last old man seemed to regain consciousness. He turned his head up and down and gritted his teeth and said, "This is the sacred place of the ancestors. If you disrupt the sacrifice, you will definitely be punished by the ancestors. Let me go and run away!"

Even as he was speaking, headless corpses rushed up from the stage frantically, and the Du family's assassins also rushed out of the ancestral hall with knives in their hands.

The old man was the third master of the Du family.

He was a shrewd man, and although he spoke softly, he actually wanted to use the zombie riot to force Li Yan away.

After all, if I say something tough at this time, I'm afraid Li Yan will die together with me.

"Hahaha!"

Li Yan naturally guessed his thoughts, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes, and laughed: "I'm afraid he can come but can't leave!"

After saying that, he suddenly exerted force with his right hand. "No——!"

The third master of the Du family roared miserably and suddenly opened his mouth to bite Li Yan.

Unfortunately, halfway through the flight, its heart was pierced, and its head fell to the ground, smoke coming out of its seven orifices, and its eyes gradually lost their luster.

Li Yan didn't have time to pay attention to it at this time.

The zombies in the audience have completely rioted.

Those in front had already climbed onto the stage, and those at the back huddled together, with the evil aura on their bodies forming black smoke, and they suddenly leaped up with a whoosh.

"Humph!"

Li Yan snorted coldly and let go of the fight.

Firstly, there were still many coachmen and coachmen on the stage, so they were saved if they could be saved.

Secondly, it is a good opportunity to force the evil god out.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Faced with these evil creatures, the Soul-Catching Rope showed its great power.

The so-called walking corpse is nothing more than a wisp of obsession in the spirit, which attracts the evil energy. The soul-catching rope is its nemesis.

Wow!
There was the sound of chains, and two soul-catching ropes flew up and down.

The little bit of essence in the corpse can be easily drawn out.

Because it is an invisible creature, all you can see is that every time a zombie approaches, black smoke will come out of its body and it will collapse to the ground.

Li Yan also used thunder magic at the same time. His Dust-Breaking Sword slashed left, chopped right, and cut upwards, and his left fist flashed with lightning.

Soon, the area around him was filled with corpses.

But as the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands. Even if the zombies can be killed by him with one move, more and more of them flocked to the stage.

As the knife flashed, Li Yan gradually retreated.

shhhhhh!
Several sharp arrows whizzed towards me.

It was the Du family's assassins who, seeing the crowded corpses below the stage, simply climbed up onto the brackets on both sides of the stage, hooked their legs on the brackets, and drew their bows to shoot arrows.

Li Yan had no idea how these assassins had been brainwashed, as they still refused to give in even after the Du family members had died.

But at this moment, I can't think about these things.

Li Yan drew out the flintlock rifle from his waist, and without aiming at anyone, he pulled the trigger at the beam of the stage.

boom!
There was a loud bang, and wood chips flew everywhere.

The beams were broken in half, and with the weight of the dead men, the brackets tilted and creaked, and the tiles fell off.

With his magical powers, he could easily find the weak points of this old stage and do this with ease.

Those dead soldiers lost their balance and had no choice but to jump down, falling directly into the crowded tide of zombies.

They were not believers of the evil god and were immediately attacked by zombies. Although they tried their best to resist, they were still ripped open by the muddy hands.

The falling stones and bricks also slightly eased the zombie tide's attack.

At this moment, Li Yan suddenly felt palpitations.

He could feel that he seemed to be stared at by something, and at the same time, he could hear bursts of tiger roars in his ears.

The tiger's roar carried a strange and intimidating power.

Li Yan felt like a frog being stared at by a poisonous snake. His heart was pounding and he felt cold. His brain became numb and he couldn't move.

It's a spell!
Fortunately, the zombies heard the tiger's roar and stopped attacking. They all lay on the ground as if they were welcoming something.

Thick fog rolled in the distance, and a tall figure vaguely appeared, holding a knife in one hand and a head in the other.

The black shadow's appearance could not be seen clearly, only its eyes were glowing red.

The hook became hotter and hotter, and clearly pointed out the direction.

Li Yan was waiting for this moment. Without any hesitation, he activated his Daluo Dharmakaya and lifted the spell. At the same time, he held the hook and shouted, "Heaven has rules, earth has guidelines. The underworld is arresting souls, and living people must stay away!"

"Roar!"

In the distance, the roar of a tiger arose again, filled with rage and panic.

The thick fog rolled in, and the dark shadow turned and fled.

However, it was all too late.

The moment Li Yan finished chanting the spell, the surroundings immediately fell into darkness.

The sound of chains, armor, swords and guns rubbing against each other...

Various voices rang in Li Yan's ears.

Then the darkness quickly dissipated.

Li Yan was a little stunned and looked into the distance.

The underworld troops had already moved away, which meant that the other party escaped very quickly. This was the first time he encountered such a situation.

Wow!
The zombies around the stage also went crazy.

He no longer paid any attention to Li Yan, raised a cloud of black smoke, and ran madly towards the east entrance of the village, as if to save his master.

But after running less than a hundred meters, the corpses fell to the ground one after another, with bursts of black smoke coming out of their bodies. The thick evil aura even caused a thick layer of white frost to condense on the surrounding ground.

At the same time, a divine force appeared in the certificate.

Captured?!

Li Yan was stunned at first, then shook his head slightly.

The living ghost messenger was indeed just a spy from the underworld. As long as the target was identified, the underworld soldiers would capture him.

He didn't even see the process.

Having said that, there are still many questions in my mind.

Li Yan jumped off the stage and followed the direction where the corpses were coming from, following the scent.

The evil god's hiding place is somewhat unexpected.

It is a quarry far away from the village.

This quarry is a bit strange.

The exposed rocks outside are all mixed with pebbles and are winding and undulating.

From a distance, it looks like the scales of a giant dragon.

Li Yan thought of what Du Yuanguang said again.

This village is called Shilong Village. Because of its special topography, it is believed to be an exposed dragon vein.

It was because of digging the mountain and removing the rocks that the evil god Zuo Shouquan was awakened.

This evil god should have escaped from the underworld in ancient times. Why is he hiding here?
Li Yan followed the smell and searched carefully, and indeed found a cave that was exposed due to the collapse of rocks.

There were dense footprints along the way, indicating that the zombies were hiding here.

The cave was filled with frost, which was a sign that evil soldiers had passed through.

Li Yan continued to go deeper into the cave.

Soon, densely packed heads were discovered, all with disheveled hair, dark and ferocious faces, and fangs.

The further you go in, the more there are, almost like a mountain.

In some cases, the skin even showed signs of petrification.

After seeing this, Li Yan couldn't help but feel scared.

He vaguely guessed that this demon was probably much more powerful than he imagined. Before, he was just a ghost wandering around outside the stage and killing people.

As you go further in, the scene changes.

In the cave, there were traces of artificial carvings, as well as skulls pierced by copper spikes engraved with runes, densely packed and nailed to the wall.

This has been suppressed!
When Li Yan saw it, he immediately understood.

Ever since he learned about Zhao Changsheng's background, he has been collecting relevant intelligence.

This person comes from the evil Zhu family in Jiangzuo.

The Zhu family has a close relationship with the Feitou barbarian clan.

During the Three Kingdoms period, the Eastern Wu general Zhu Huan discovered that there was a maid hidden in his mansion. She was a flying-headed beast, which could harm people with its flying head.

He caught this woman just to brag about it as a rare thing.

However, some people in the Zhu family were tempted and took the opportunity to look for Feitou Liao to study evil methods, becoming the leaders of the evil ways at that time.

The famous animal-making technique originated from the Zhu family in Jiangzuo.

And based on the information collected by Li Yan.

The Feitou Liao clan has been recorded since the Qin and Han dynasties, but at that time they were rampant in the land of Baiyue. Later, they probably followed the sorcerers to the sea and went to Japan, becoming one of the famous monsters there.

During the Tang Dynasty, this ethnic minority was active for a period of time, but then disappeared inexplicably.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, historians revised the history "New Book of Tang", which clearly stated the habitat of the Luotou tribe in the Tang Dynasty, which was roughly in the area of ​​Chongqing today. At that time, it was called "Nanping Liao".

Could it be that this is the Feitou Liao tribe that mysteriously disappeared?
