Xuanxia

Chapter 116 Tragic
The reason why Wu Changfeng was able to advance to the Sixth Realm was because of the Golden Body Pill from the Jinchan Temple. His father Wu Yue was very grateful to the Jinchan Temple for this. Wu Changfeng himself also obediently "became a monk", which shows that he also agreed with this attitude in his heart.

The Fanyin Temple is attached to the Jinchan Temple...

Before, he helped the two to deal with Fa Zheng, which could only be said to be a personal vendetta, which was completely understandable - but it was normal for him to have some reservations when asked to join the two to destroy the Fanyin Temple.

Fu Qingzhou immediately figured out the key point and smiled helplessly.

But Qiu Chan, who flew over at this time and heard this, was not so good-tempered. She smiled slightly and said sarcastically: "It turns out that Brother Wu is not really irritable and unreasonable. At this time, he is still very rational."

Wu Changfeng's face immediately turned red, and he stiffened his neck and couldn't speak for a long time.

"Okay, let's talk about this later." Fu Qingzhou tried to smooth things over: "Let's rescue the people here first. Brother Wu's eyes and ears are injured. Let's rest here for a while... Later we'll go to the kitchen to see if there is any cooking oil to help Brother Wu wash his eyes."

Qiu Chan rolled her eyes silently, shook her long hair, turned around and walked deeper into the villa.

Fu Qingzhou glanced at Wu Changfeng who was sighing and said, "Brother Wu, please keep an eye on that person alive."

Wu Changfeng didn't say anything else, just nodded and waved his hand, which was considered as his agreement.

Fu Qingzhou curled his lips and followed Qiu Chan.

As mentioned before, the villa is not big, and they had already explored the front yard of the villa, so they went to the backyard. Sure enough, it didn't take much time to find the key house.

That was the master bedroom of the villa. There were many blood-stained bandages on the bed. I guess they were left behind when changing the bandages for Fayuan not long ago.

And in this bedroom, there is clearly a secret passage.

The reason why the secret passage is "clear" is because the mechanism is not too secretive... or in other words, for Fu Qingzhou and Qiu Chan, a mechanism cannot be very secretive and is too easy to find.

Just based on the dust in the room and the traces of hand touches, they quickly found the half-person-high vase fixed to the ground. With a slight turn, the bed board opened with a bang, revealing a staircase leading downwards.

But as soon as the stairs opened, the two of them immediately frowned and covered their mouths and noses.

Such a strong smell of blood!

No…it wasn't just the smell of blood, there was also an extremely rotten and sour smell, like the stench of a corpse mixed with excrement, it was almost enough to make people faint.

Fu Qingzhou and Qiu Chan looked at each other, and both clearly saw some ominous premonition in each other's eyes.

Without hesitation, the two men searched their bodies at the same time, and then each took out a piece of cloth to cover their mouths and noses.

Although it may not block too much smell...but it can at least help.

Going down the stairs, the smell became stronger and stronger. There were dim lights on both sides of the stairs, and there were even some blood and flesh fragments left on the ground, which made Fu Qingzhou feel as if he had returned to his previous life and was playing "Resident Evil".

The stairs were not very long. At the bottom, there was a long corridor with many doorways on both sides. It seemed that the entire villa had been hollowed out to create an underground villa.

Walking along the corridor, they came to the first doorway and looked inside...

"what!"

Qiu Chan, who was walking in front, turned pale with fright, screamed, took a few steps back and bumped into Fu Qingzhou.

Fu Qingzhou didn't have time to reach out to help. He stared at the situation in the room. He felt an extremely cold chill in his heart and his hands and feet were almost stiff and numb.

This room is full of human skins!
Hanging from the roof were bloodstained and rusty iron hooks, with complete human skins hanging on the hooks. At first glance, they should all be men. The hooks passed through the empty eye holes on the heads of the human skins. The mouths of the human skins were pulled wide open by gravity, as if they were screaming or begging.

Qiu Chan didn't dare to look anymore. She turned her head away, closed her eyes, covered her mouth and nose, and didn't dare to breathe.

Fu Qingzhou clenched his fists, suppressed his surging emotions, and walked into the room.

"Hiss..." Just then, the smoker's voice rang in their ears: "Why does this scene look a little familiar?"

Fu Qingzhou stretched out his trembling hands to examine the human skins and asked in a low voice, "Do you know what they are doing?"

"uncertain."

The Smoker made a tut sound. "Many sorcery techniques require skinning a person, but it is rare to see such a complete skinning... You go around first, and I'll follow you."

It was right, the skins of these people were peeled very completely.

The skinner would insert the knife from the cervical vertebrae on the back, and move all the way down along the spine to the coccyx. The cut would be straight and continuous, and the skin would be extremely intact, just like clothes taken off a person.

When Fu Qingzhou was a hunter, he would also kill and skin wild animals. He could see that the people who did this job were very skillful and careful with their knife skills, and they must have put in a lot of effort... or even done this countless times to be able to achieve this level.

He looked around carefully and found that there were roughly seven or eight men's skins hanging here. Judging from the skin condition, height, hair and other details, they were all young and middle-aged men.

"Hey, stop looking!"

Outside the house, Qiu Chan covered her mouth and nose and said in a stern voice, "Let's go!"

Fu Qingzhou nodded and left the room with a gloomy face.

What on earth is this Fanyin Temple doing...

I originally thought that this was just a group of guys who kidnapped believers and disciples from the underworld, but now it seems that the situation is much more serious.

After leaving the human skin room, the two men walked a few steps before another doorway appeared. This time, the smell of blood was stronger and thicker, and even someone like Fu Qingzhou, who was accustomed to the smell of blood, shuddered all over.

The smell was no longer just pungent, it was so spicy that it was difficult for both of them to open their eyes!

In the room, there is a large alchemy furnace that is as tall as a person.

The table beside the stove was filled with broken limbs, internal organs, blood and flesh. One could tell at a glance that they all belonged to human beings.

Not to mention that the edge of the alchemy furnace was covered with blackened blood, countless flies were flying around the furnace, and a strong fishy smell filled the entire room.

There were a few Dange on a shelf in the corner of the room, with five or six blood-red pills scattered inside.

"He, they..."

Qiu Chan's voice was shaking: "Are you using someone to make pills?!"

Fu Qingzhou's eyes turned red with anger. He no longer needed to go into the house to investigate anything. Everything was clear at a glance. Those people in the Fanyin Temple were not monks at all, but evil spirits!

Just at this moment, the voice of the smoker sounded slowly: "Ah... I remember what this thing is."

"Men refine the body shell, and women refine the blood elixir. Isn't this the stuff of the Blood Cicada Secret Sect?"

Fu Qingzhou and Qiu Chan were shocked and asked in unison: "What sect?"

"Oh, a Western demonic cult from my time."

The Smoker sneered, "In the Blood Cicada Secret Sect, those who practice martial arts practice by constantly replacing the skins of others, and those who practice magic practice by swallowing blood pills. Even I find this stuff very evil. In the first few years when I entered the cave heaven, several major sects in the Central Plains united to destroy them. I didn't expect to see the inheritance now."

"Blood Cicada Secret Sect..." Qiu Chan narrowed her eyes and whispered, "Golden Cicada Temple also has a cicada. It's impossible that the Golden Cicada Temple was inherited from the Blood Cicada Secret Sect?"

Fu Qingzhou said coldly: "There is another survivor outside. He doesn't have Fayuan's self-sealing technique. We will know soon."
