Chapter 1170: Right Priest
Taotie continued to walk to the top of the mountain with the three of them. To this day, the traces left by the bloodbathing were still clearly seen here. The new palace altars were all rebuilt on the basis of the original ruins. They were not magnificent and gorgeous, but added a bit of inexplicable vicissitudes and tragic. Yun Xiao looked around curiously and patted the ferocious beast's head and asked: "The Six Desire Top was destroyed so powerfully. Not to mention ordinary humans, even those animals with more tenacious vitality cannot adapt to the overly barren environment. How did you survive in such a place?"
Taotie shook his head and answered truthfully: "My master feeds me delicious water lilies every day and brings me fresh Ganoderma lucidum. As for others, I don't know what they eat. There are many believers from Liuyu Ting. Every fifteenth month, they will gather at the foot of the mountain to pray for blessings, and the master will take me down for a walk..."
"Walking... are you a dog?" Yun Xiao slapped it on the forehead again in anger, and cursed with anger, "What are you walking? You just take you to scare those ignorant believers. I ask you, Six Desires are deserted, where did so many believers come from?"
The ferocious beast turned his head and glanced at her sadly. I don’t know what kind of nature suppression made it gentle and lowered its tone: “The Chongguang Hall on the top of the mountain has a mysterious space passage. The believers on the Six Desires were brought in by the leader from there. Usually a group of people a year, which has lasted for decades. Each time, about 5,000 people will arrive at the altar. After all, they will be arranged to live at the foot of the mountain after being baptized by the right priest.”
"Five thousand people..." Yun Xiao calculated something silently, frowned and said to the two people beside him, "It seems that there are not so many people in the group of cultists who attacked us before, right?"
Feng Jiuqing's expression was still stern, and he said in a low voice: "A group of people in a year, a group of five thousand people? Then shouldn't there be more than 100,000 people in the Six Desires now?"
"No, there are only five thousand people at most." Taotie responded casually, not paying attention to the solemnity on the faces of the three. "After the newcomer comes, they will replace all the previous ones."
"Swap it?" Yun Xiao was frightened, "Where did you change it?"
"I don't know." Taotie answered truthfully, "The master said that the believers who can come to the Six Desires are all the best selected from thousands of islands of Liuliu. Only those who are devout believers in the Demon Sect can escape the sea of suffering and reach the Pure Land. They probably have really gone to the Pure Land."
"Do they call this kind of ghost place where birds do not poop or lay eggs called Ji Bli?" Yun Xiao hummed disdainfully, and his hands subconsciously clasped, as if he had guessed some terrible ending, and said, "Can you be killed? The Demon Cult has been trying to summon the true body of Maru, and usually similar forbidden techniques will be sacrificed by living people."
"It's probably true. Those who were deceived must be ordinary people without power. Those who are worthwhile, like Shen Miansui, who are of great value, will they not easily kill them as sacrifices." Feng Jiuqing seemed very calm, but his tone was full of sarcasm and disdain, "Even the Blood Tea Formation in the Heaven Realm uses life as sacrifices. Haha, it's really ridiculous. Will those legendary gods and demons really like this sacrifice?"
Yun Xiao sighed and muttered: "The golden lotus in Cang Li's hand is something from the Demon Cult? It's true that it's a bird of a feather, and it's a mess. The Demon Cult, the Demon Cult, did they not avoid suspicion at all and called themselves the Demon Cult?"
Feng Jiuqing also blinked curiously and said in confusion: "Yes, no one generally calls himself the 'Demon Cult', right? The White Cult is also a religion. It is named after the last word Shu Shaobai by the name of Shu Shaobai. The Demon Cult you met in Dunhuang also calls himself the 'Holy Cult'. Most religious sects will fabricate some mysterious history, with the purpose of bewitching people's hearts and convince the church. Why did you come to the Six Desire Top and pretend to be the last word? "
Taotie couldn't understand these complicated things, so he could only repeat the things that he had heard them many times: "The leader said that gods and demons are one, and they can change their appearances in one thought. The Six Desires believe in the demon Buddha who transforms into free heaven. Of course, he does not avoid suspicion and calls himself the "Demon Sect". The demon is the demon Buddha's demon, not the demon of the demon."
"There is a fart difference." Yun Xiao slapped it on the forehead again, and Feng Jiuqing laughed, "It's reasonable to explain this. The simpler the reason, the more trouble it is, the more wrong it is. Anyway, they all call themselves the Demon Sect, so it's normal to use some despicable forbidden techniques to obtain strength. After all, put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha, right?"
Xiao Qianye kept listening to them, his eyes sank silently: "They really thought they could put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha. The Supreme Emperor and the Duke of the Guru Island lived in the east and west courtyards of Moro Temple. They were both the highest-level leaders with national power. They knew better than anyone that the shadows of the Buddha were absorbing the vitality of ordinary people, but they regarded the people as grass. Not only did they not care, but they naturally felt that it was natural to sacrifice ordinary people to prolong their lifespan. If the rulers of every island held this idea, it would not be surprising that the Demon Cult made such a rapid success."
"False truth." Yun Xiao retorted angrily, and Feng Jiuqing held his cheek and shook his head and sighed, "I am a demon sect. If you have the ability to tell the fallacies, it is also his ability."
Yun Xiao was so blocked by him that he could not answer the words, so he could only hum twice and looked elsewhere. When he walked to a fork in the road, Taotie stopped and raised his claw and introduced with great enthusiasm: "There is a medicine field over there. The owner has planted many delicious Ganoderma lucidum there, but there is a magic barrier outside to stop him, saying that he is afraid that I will steal it."
"Medical Field..." Yun Xiao swallowed nervously and asked, "The Ganoderma lucidum you eat is actually a kind of soul lucidum that is derived from the medicine of boys and girls. Did Liuyuding kidnap the child from the black market?"
Taotie blinked and shook his head: "I don't know that the master will bring Ganoderma lucidum to me in person, it's so delicious."
Feng Jiuqing and Xiao Qianye looked at each other tacitly, and Feng Jiuqing got up and jumped off its back: "You go find someone first, I'll go to the medicine field."
When Taotie saw that he was walking towards the medicine field, he immediately shook his tail happily and prepared to follow us. Yun Xiao quickly pressed it down and pointed to another road and laughed and scolded: "Eat, eat, do you have to eat? After all, it is the legendary ferocious beast Taotie. He is raised as obedient as a puppy. If you don't allow it to go, you have to continue to lead the way for us! There is a medicine field over there, and this should lead directly to the main hall, right? Don't be lazy, go faster."
Taotie licked his lips, turned his head reluctantly and walked on another road. Xiao Qianye also stood up and observed the surroundings carefully, and said strangely: "We had been attacked at the foot of the mountain before, but why did we get to the mountain and no one was seen?"
"The ordinary believers in this place will not be allowed to enter." Taotie explained seriously and soon walked to the door of a palace. "This is the Hall of Qiguang, which is the place where two priests baptized the promoted believers. At present, the left priest is not on the Six Desires, only my master and the right priest."
"This is also the place of baptism?" Yun Xiao asked in confusion. Xiao Qianye pulled her down, put one hand on the heavy stone door of the Qiguang Hall, and looked at the same relief of the demon Buddha on the door with complex eyes. He said, "The Demon Cult is of strict rank, and the highest level is the leader, the head and the high priest, and then the seven emotions and six desires. I guess there may be a level difference between ordinary sects. The higher the level, the closer they are to the Pure Land of Bliss they fantasize about. The Demon Cult is using this kind of heart to stimulate them to climb up layer by layer."
"On the surface, it seems to be a religion full of faith, but in fact it is exactly the same as the officialdom." Yun Xiao ridiculed him disdainfully, Xiao Qianye smiled casually and pushed open the closed stone door with force.
The right priest stood alone in front of the water mirror. Before the undead sent out to send the message had responded, the picture presented in the mirror became the picture he could see when he turned around. Taotie tilted his head at the two of them and said, "This is my master."
Yun Xiao's brows were already furrowed. He thought that the right priest who was in charge of the Demon Cult and raised the ferocious beast Taotie must be a very difficult opponent. However, the man standing in the Qiguang Hall looked weak and even turned around stiffly and showed a flattering smirk to them because of fear. He cut off the relationship with humbly and cautiously: "I don't know anything. I am only responsible for planting flowers, medicine, and raising Taotie, and then pretending to baptize the believers... No, no, no, it's either baptism, or sprinkling some so-called holy water on their heads, nothing else."
The right priest smiled flatteringly, because he was nervous and grabbed his head and scratched his neck. Yun Xiao walked forward, and the flames in his palm condensed into a long sword. Every step was filled with bright flames, which scared the right priest backwards and asked: "What you planted is not ordinary flowers, but water lilies that bind evil spirits. What you plant is not ordinary medicine, but soul zhi led by boys and girls. Even what you raise is not ordinary poultry and pets, but a rare adult glutton in the world. If you don't have any skills, you can't do this job. Hum, don't think that you can clean yourself up by just a few words. I won't eat this."
"Girl!" The right priest knelt down and begged without any hesitation. Xiao Qianye held Yun Xiao's wrist and pressed the other party's throat with the bone sword. A golden thread that was exactly the same as that covered the six desire top appeared on the sword. He raised his lips and sneered, "Don't kill him first. A talkable waste is always better than a corpse that can't speak. I don't think that Taotie knows more. Just let the right priest continue to lead the way."
Yun Xiao tilted his head and looked at him, and found that he was catching a meaningful smile. He suddenly lowered his tone and reminded: "The golden thread technique can only cover the island, and there is a space passage for Cang Li on the Six Desires. Since that's the case, why don't you escape but sit here and wait for death? The only explanation is that Cang Li closed the spell, turned against the Dragon Master, and then stabbed the Demon Sect again. Haha, it's true that it's Bie Yunjian's usual style, and I'm becoming more and more interested in them."
