Chapter 351
With the help of the tree Tianzhu, the group quickly chose a path and set off.
Yu Xi originally thought that he would see the environment made by medicine makers here, but he didn't expect to walk into this road. After passing through the corridor, the first thing he saw was a group of animals.
The larger animals include lions and tigers, the smaller ones include cats, dogs, parrots and birds. At a glance, there are probably hundreds of animals, filling the house at the end of the aisle.
From Yu Xi's perspective, he could also see two turtles placed on the cabinet on one side.
These animals were lying quietly in the same place. When they saw Yu Xi and the others appear, they just raised their eyelids, and soon lay down again as if they were wilted, looking listless.
If you look more closely, you can see that each animal has a shackle-like ring around its neck, with heavy chains tied to the protrusions on the ring, and the chains are connected to the wall behind the animals.
Even the two turtles had small red rings around their necks. The chains were smaller, but the other ends were also buried deep in the wall.
Every animal has its own place, and all the animals are quiet. Even the lamb lying next to the tiger does not seem to be worried about being eaten at all, and sleeps with its eyes closed.
It’s more numb than brave.
Yu Xi couldn't communicate with the animals and could only look at Gu An.
Gu An made a clear bird call to a parrot standing in a birdcage.
The parrot seemed to react a little, tilting its head to look over, then suddenly flapped its wings and slammed into the cage, screaming in a human voice:
"Kill me! Kill me! Kill me!"
It screamed so shrilly that even the tree angel who was exploring the way ahead looked over.
However, the animals did not react.
Gu An lowered his voice again and said something to the parrot in a language that Yu Xi could not understand. Only then did the parrot finally calm down a little and let out a shrill cry.
Gu An nodded, and then said to Xi: "Senior Sister, this parrot said that they were all raised by a cultivator."
"They are all ordinary animals, right?" Yu Xi asked in a low voice.
When the parrot made human sounds just now, she almost thought that the immortal monks had gone so far as to stuff human souls into animals.
Don't say it, now she really thinks that the monks are capable of doing such a thing.
Gu An was stunned for a moment, then looked at the parrot and asked something, then quickly said:
"The people who keep them hate disobedient animals, so they give them medicine, which is why they are so quiet."
Hearing this, Yu Xi wanted to say something, but seeing that Shu Tianzhu had already walked ahead, he hurriedly followed.
There are many animals on both sides, neatly arranged on both sides of the road. At first glance, some of the originally cute animals appear inexplicably weird because of such neat arrangement.
She caught up with Shu Tianzhu and asked softly:
"After we obtain the Wind and Thunder Pearl and take back the Medicine Spirit Valley from the cultivators, can these animals live in the Medicine Spirit Valley?"
Shu Tianzhu didn't reply.
Yu Xi looked at Shu Tianzhu and seemed to sigh, vaguely feeling that something was wrong.
Soon, Shu Tianzhu placed his hands on the wall at the end of the road, and the spiritual energy of the wall was decomposed and disappeared, soon revealing the appearance inside.
The stench that hit her face made Yu Xi's nose hurt. She immediately held her breath and looked up, only to see large piles of animal carcasses.
These corpses were piled up in a pit next to the door. Some red plants were growing above the pit. There were monks squatting at the edge of the pit, collecting these plants.
Yu Xi immediately understood something.
"Those drugs that make them obedient..."
"Shorten your lifespan."
Shu Tianzhu coughed weakly twice. Seeing the cultivators, he took the initiative to step back so as not to cause trouble to Yu Xi and the others. At the same time, he whispered:
"There is no medicine in this world that can make people obedient. Only poison can destroy consciousness."
Gu An also took over at this time:
"The parrot said that there are monks called Qingzheng who like to raise well-behaved animals and use the disobedient ones as food."
Yu Xi clenched his fist and his eyes darkened.
The monks who were collecting herbs were stunned when they saw outsiders breaking in, and then they immediately scolded:
"who are you?!"
They are not very strong and are responsible for raising medicine men. Those who are strong have gone outside to stop the invaders.
When they saw Yu Xi and Gu An drawing their swords together, their faces turned pale and they quickly realized that Yu Xi and the others were the invaders!
what happened?
Where are the monks who went to stop them?
Qingzheng's capable subordinates, the three monks who were so powerful that they had won the Immortal Sect Conference, actually failed to stop the invaders?!
Realizing that the people in front of them might be stronger than the three monks, these monks' first reaction was to run away.
But there were also some who were not so cowardly and picked up the sword, wanting to fight with Yu Xi and the others. Unfortunately, Yu Xi was murderous at the moment and used a killing move right from the start. Several monks who reacted a little slower had their heads chopped off directly.
Gu An acted decisively and swiftly, cutting off anyone who attacked him.
I have to say that Yu Xi and Gu An are worthy of being disciples of Luo Chunxi. No matter what moves they use, they don’t have so many fancy moves and they just go straight to take the other’s life.
After discovering that Yu Xi and the others were using demonic energy, some cultivators quickly realized their identities and hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy:
"Fourth Young Master? You are the Fourth Young Master of the Demon Realm, right? Please don't kill me. I am just a small cultivator from the Xuanxing Sect. I, I know nothing."
Yu Xi didn't answer, but just looked in the direction the monks were fleeing. This glance almost became her nightmare.
In front of us is a barn similar to one used to keep livestock, separated into compartments.
There was a wooden barrel in each grid, some of which were sealed and some were open. A long, heavy iron hook hung from the top of the open barrel, and all the people were hanging on the sharp end.
The tips of the hooks pierced through the backs of these people and came out from their chests, hanging them high up. All of them hung their heads as if their necks were broken, their bones visible, as if only a hanging piece of human skin was left.
Some were missing arms, some were missing lower bodies, and almost all of them were incomplete.
But everyone is alive.
Yu Xi gasped, the cold air hit her throat, and the pain made her feel cold all over.
Brother, brother, has he been treated like this before?
"Sister."
Gu An noticed that Yu Xi's eyes were not right, so he gently pulled Yu Xi's hand. When he found that Yu Xi's hand was ice-cold, he frowned.
Yu Xi ignored Gu An and only looked at the monk who was kneeling beside him:
"Did you guys do that to them?"
The monk was stunned for a moment, and fearing that Yu Xi might misunderstand him, he quickly explained:
"Fourth Young Master, Fourth Young Master! Please listen to my explanation. They are not human. Their souls have been taken away. They can't feel pain. They can't be considered human. They are just living medicinal herbs, just like the legendary ginseng!"
As if afraid that Yu Xi might not believe him, he continued:
"When I first arrived, I was just as shocked and scared as you were. But as time went by, I realized that these are all medicinal herbs, they just look like humans!"
