"Don't fall for it."
As early as the moment they set foot in Lancerburg, Qing Mo, who was sitting cross-legged in the sea of souls, opened his eyes. He is no stranger to this place, and what he experienced is still vivid in his mind. Qing Mo added, "Although they appear to be two brothers, one on the left and one on the right, it's actually one person."
"Impossible!" Qian Wanyu had felt that there was a slight difference in the aura they exuded from the left and the right ones, not to mention that she would never make a mistake, unless…
"This is an illusion technique. After cultivation, one person can be divided into two identical people. Just like Meng Yixiao used a secret method to divide himself into two parts, these two shadows have the same effect." Qing Mo said regretfully. At that time, Meng Yixiao exploded, and even his space ring turned into dust. Otherwise, that skill would be useful to save a life at a critical time.
"Where is Ninth Sister then?"
Qian Wanyu had a stern face, it was hard to believe that the two madmen were actually the same person. She narrowed her eyes slightly, held the sword in her right hand, and swung the whip in her left, almost simultaneously attacking both at once. Two kinds of spiritual power flowed out.
"Hee hee, our doll."
"Haha, our doll."
The two were throwing around a Dongfang Minghui on their backs like throwing toys. You throw it to me, I throw it to you, back and forth.
When Qian Wanyu saw Dongfang Minghui, her reason almost evaporated."Calm down and feel carefully with your heart."
Qian Wanyu held her breath and calmed down with a puzzled expression, how could she be tricked? Qian Wanyu didn't believe that someone could kidnap Ninth Sister from her so easily without disturbing her. She separated a ray of spiritual consciousness and quickly discovered something that she was blinded by her eyes.
Ninth Sister was still by her side, quietly falling asleep behind her. Wei Junlan, who was standing behind was breathing steadily, her eyes were closed, and she seemed to be asleep too.
Seeing the person lying on her shoulders obediently, not knowing what she was dreaming about and smacking her lips from time to time, Qian Wanyu's heart was instantly settled. Then she looked at the doll thrown by the two people on the opposite side. It was merely an illusion but it was very skillful and showed that the person on the opposite side had a very good control of spiritual power, "Why did they fall asleep?"
The only reason Qing Mo could think of, "Probably because of the illusion, you can try to wake them up."
Qian Wanyu circulated her whole body's spiritual power, mainly wind-type spiritual power and divided it into two small shares, "Wake up!"
The sound was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap, three consecutive sounds awakened the two people who were sleeping at once.
Wei Junlan was agitated, and when she woke up, she found that she didn't know what she was doing just now, her head was muddled, as if her soul had gone out of the body.
“Seventh sister!”
"Good, I'll tell you what happened when I'm done with this person."
"Oh."
Dongfang Minghui was still a little dazed, she rubbed her eyes, yawned, and found that the twin figures alternated faster, she was a little dazzled and simply closed her eyes instead of looking at them again. Next to her, behind her left, where she just entered everyone was watching. The onlookers were applauding, and there are even one or two eager to try join in. In the back right, there were five or six people who blocked an honest-looking man in the corner, intimidating and enticing him. She didn't know what he was doing, but they were served a pot of porridge by the honest man.
Looking at the excited expressions on other people's faces, she could only sigh with emotion, what a chaotic place.
As she was watching the play this time, her vision has changed from multiple angles.
Qian Wanyu's speed was very fast, she blocked the two of them in the first breath of the other party's changing and severely injured the two of them.
Due to the damage to their spiritual power, the illusions were automatically invalidated, and they had to merge into one, exposing his weakness to Qian Wanyu.
"Should I call you Little Left or Little Right?" Qian Wanyu took back her sword and whip, lifted his mask and revealing a devastated face with marks on his face that had long been scabbed. It seems to be an old injury. "It seems that this face is still very disgusting."
The man sneered, "Hee hee, haha, kill me if you want, why talk nonsense?"
The man's voice changed in various ways, sometimes it was Little Left's voice, and sometimes it was Little Right's voice. If the crowd hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, many people would not believe that the twins were actually the same person.
At least among the residents in Lancerburg, there were many people who had suffered because of these two faces. They have been repeatedly guessing which one was Little Left and which was Little Right, and it is only now that they understood it was just an illusion.
Qian Wanyu ended his life as he wished, and found a space ring from him, after erasing the traces left on the ring, she found a fragment of the illusion method, "It should be this. "
"Incomplete… no wonder he turned out so half-baked."
Qian Wanyu declined to comment. She glanced coldly at the group of people who were looking at them, and threw a sword to Wei Junlan, "If anyone finds fault, don't be merciful."
Wei Junlan weighed the sword, and it was a little heavy. Judging from the patterns on the sword, it seemed to be quite old and valuable, but she was used to using soft weapons. Still she felt very grateful to Qian Wanyu, "Thank you."
"Let's go."
Lancerburg's day was only chaotic fighting, adult relations and promiscuity, however the bloody brutality began at night.
Everyone was able to see Qian Wanyu's cold-blooded, cruel and merciless side. Just now, some were still a little bit eager to move, but stayed still for a while, waiting for the best time to fish in troubled waters. They were like mice in the dark, waiting for their prey to relax their vigilance to swarm and tear it up.
"Hey, you two came from afar, do you need me to find a safe place for you to stay?" A fat man with an oily head and powdered face walked towards them, with a chubby figure, standing in front of them, almost as tall as Qian Wanyu.
He could speak the human language which Dongfang Minghui found very strange. Since entering Lancerburg, most of the people who appeared in front of them were human beings. She felt a trace of nostalgia seeing this group of people before and acted rashly. Unfortunately, this little bit of nostalgia disappeared without a trace after witnessing the brutality of this group of people.
She preferred those silly big cute beast people!
"The two guests are talented and beautiful, you two are a match made in heaven. With such high taste as you two, we have a room that absolutely matches the needs of both of you. We only need a hundred spirit stones. Of course, looking at the beauty of both of you, you can get a 20% discount."
Dongfang Minghui, who had been completely ignored, took out her silk umbrella and waved, glancing at Wei Junlan very unhappily. Wei Junlan was not as tall as Seventh sister, so standing next to Seventh sister made a strange scene. In other words, a match made in heaven, hmph she sneered and the silk umbrella in her hand pointed directly at the fat man's neck.
The fat man jumped three times in fright. He stayed far away from them, and his reaction speed was very sharp. Dongfang Minghui looked at the other side's shaking fat with curiosity, "Why don't you just grab it, being so expensive huh?"
There were thirty spirit stones per person to enter here, and the three of them spent almost a hundred spirit stones. In the end, they also needed a hundred spirit stones to live in one place. Dongfang Minghui calculated if the three of them wanted to go to a room, it would cost three hundred spirit stones!
It is also thanks to the fact that she had obtained a lot of spirit stones from selling pills before, most of which went into the pockets of the Blood Fiend Alliance, there was little left. According to this infinite squandering, it is estimated that her small vault will soon be empty!
Qian Wanyu had no idea that the little guy behind her had started to think about earning spiritual stones to support the family.
The fat man's eyes were slender, and when he squeezed out a smile, the fat on his cheeks made his eyes look even smaller.
"Little girl, I don't care about your thoughts, in Lancerburg this price is very fair, and it's also generous since I'm giving you 20% off."
"50% off." Qian Wanyu said suddenly.
The Fatty obviously didn't expect them to be so easy to talk to, so he responded extremely quickly, "Okay, two guests please come this way."
"Three." Dongfang Minghui tapped his back shoulder with the silk umbrella displeased.
"Yes, the little girl is right, how many rooms do you three want?"
"One."
They had just stepped into the ‘inn' where the Fatty had taken them. Rather than saying ‘inn', they were actually bungalows, a large courtyard built with earthen walls. There were several rooms in the courtyard. The house looked very strange, with a ‘house number' erected outside the house, and the name of the inn was also very strange
"Letting you live Inn"
Just by seeing this strange name, Little Minghui could feel a sense of malice from the town…
As soon as they set foot inside, a figure slammed towards them, Wei Junlan and Qian Wanyu tacitly agreed to split to the left and right to dodge quickly. The fat man walking in the middle was smashed and fell to the ground. He was pressed to the ground by the figure for a long time and didn't recover.
"Oh, which immoral, dares to smash your fat grandfather's face!" The fat man pushed away and saw that the person lying on him had already lost his breath and heartbeat. He suddenly pushed the still warm corpse away and stood up cursing in a low voice.
There were a total of six rooms in the yard, and each room was quite close. Only one door was open, and the number was room one. In this open room stood a man standing about 1.89 meters tall. He was quite tall for a human and stood wearing a navy blue dress with his hands behind his back. Just standing there gave people a sense that he could not be ignored. He looked at the two people beside the fat man with an evil smile then closed the door indifferently.
The fat man met the man's stern eyes, and he didn't dare to take a breath. He waited until the door was closed, then patted his chest, before kicking the corpse on the ground twice, "You even dare to provoke Master Qi, it's your fault."
Qian Wanyu and Wei Junlan didn't ask any more questions during the whole process, they just followed him to the room they had agreed to before, and a sign was erected outside – five. It didn't look much better, but it was a step up compared to the living environment in Lalo City.
There was a lone big tree outside the house, blocking the sunlight outside, so the house looked extraordinarily deserted and dark.
There weren't too many things in this room. The best thing about it was that the place was clean. There's only one bed and one stool in the room, and nothing else.
The three randomly chose a place to sit down and sat down. Not long after they sat down, there was a loud fight and a loud bang from the next door. They estimated that most of the beds or stools in the next room were gone by now.
If the arrangement next door was the same as theirs, the only furniture that could make such a big noise would be the bed.
Next door's room number is 2, and it was a wall away from that Master Qi's room.
Dongfang Minghui widened her eyes, wondering, isn't this place a resting place?
“Ninth Sister…”
Qian Wanyu had a sense of joy holding her and regardless of Wei Junlan's presence, she leaned over and kissed the other party's rosy cheek. She was blinded by the illusion just now, thinking that she was missing and it really scared her.
"Seventh sister, don't, there's still someone else here!"
Qian Wanyu didn't care whether Wei Junlan was there or not, she held the person tightly in her arms and didn't let go.
Wei Junlan covered her face and felt like she couldn't watch it any longer. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, she would even want to slam the door and leave. Who would want to watch this damn abuse of singles, "Hey, I said enough, this place is not safe, can you wait until we get out of first to make out!"
Speaking of safety.
Qian Wanyu moved her head away from the other's small shoulder, "That's exactly what I was going to say. There's a big problem with this inn. We must all be vigilant before night approaches."
"What do you mean?"
Dongfang Minghui also stared at the outside of the house, the door of their inn was not closed at all, and the sound of fighting in the next room continued from the inside to the outside of the house, they could vaguely see people coming and going around the inn.
"It's just like what we saw when we first entered the door." Qian Wanyu saw that they still didn't understand, and simply said, "Someone will come to attack our room later."
"Then?"
"Nothing, it will just be very lively later." Qian Wanyu sneered.
The so-called very lively… They soon saw it. A man and a woman walked in from the outside, and said arrogantly, "Master has already taken a fancy to this room, you should get out of here if you don't want to get hurt."
Wei Junlan suddenly realized that it is no wonder that the fighting from the next room hadn't stopped, so this is why.
"Roll."
Qian Wanyu's voice was clear and cold, just one simple word.
Dongfang Minghui was very upset, these two were blatant robbers. This room cost them a lot of spiritual stones, no wonder the group of people outside saw them leaving with Fatty just now, and all gloated over the misfortune. It turned out that they were waiting for her here.
"No, you get out!" Little Minghui was also angry. Even a monk on a mountain had a limit to being bullied by others.
"You don't want to? Hmph." The man and the woman seemed prepared, one quickly attacked Wei Junlan, and the other attacked Dongfang Minghui in Qian Wanyu's arms.
They had probably already seen that Dongfang Minghui was a weakness to Qian Wanyu, so they were ruthless when they attacked, killing from all angles.
“Seventh sister!”
Dongfang Minghui originally wanted Qian Wanyu to put her down, but with a twist, she moved from Seventh sister's arms to her back, and the two went back to back, Qian Wanyu reminded, "In case someone attacks me from behind."
"All right."
Having said that, Dongfang Minghui didn't find anyone attacking Seventh Sister. Instead, the neck of the man and the woman were penetrated by Seventh Sister's whip.
In less than a stick of incense, the fat man sent someone to carry out the corpses, seeing the skilled movements of the other party, she knew that he had done this many times.
Dongfang Minghui gave the Fatty a stern look. Just now, he was eager to pull them into the inn. It turned out that he dug a hole for them to jump in. Those who could live here had to be strong, if not…hehe. Sure enough, she couldn't trust anyone in this place.
"Seventh sister, what's the point of this inn being open?"
"For gambling."
You can also use human life to cultivate.
The reason why this inn charges such a high spirit stone is not to let people come in and stay rest one night. The night in Lancerburg is hell. Who could rest in peace? This inn was the largest casino in the town and every guest who came, came in to bet. The room number of the inn was used for this purpose.
"The design of this inn is very good." Wei Junlan was amazed, no one knew the ‘unspoken rules' of this inn.
"They take us gambling chips, so can I bet on us winning?" Dongfang Minghui thought about it, since the matter was already a done deal and they were in the inn, they wouldn't be able to quit easily. They might as well make a profit from their efforts.
Qian Wanyu chuckled softly and pinched her cheek, "Of course you can."
They waited quietly for the second group of people to arrive. When the bodies were collected, the fat man would naturally appear in front of them. Sure enough, a second group of people came soon. There were three people, three to three. Maybe someone lost a bet and complained that it was unfair for them to have three people?
No one talked nonsense this time, they started to fight as soon as they entered. Wei Junlan picked a sturdy one, and the rest of the two were taken over by Qian Wanyu.
Dongfang Minghui, who was very well protected by Seventh Sister, looked left and right, and found that the the number 1 door opened at an unknown time. The design of this room was also special. It faced the main entrance and in that room, the man Fatty called Master Qi was leaning against the door and looking at them with interest.
She tilted her head and looked at the other party. The Master Qi he mentioned looked sloppy, and most of his face was covered by a beard. Only a pair of cheetah-like eyes were flashing with excitement, as if he had found an interesting prey. But looking at it, from her angle he seemed to have become someone else's prey as well.
When Dongfang Minghui saw a person appearing behind Master Qi, her pupils shrank, and she opened her mouth, but she didn't say a reminder.
They couldn't even protect themselves, why should they provoke even more trouble?
Master Qi's beard moved, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he gave her a knowing smile. As soon as the door was closed, another corpse was soon thrown out.
When the fat man came again, there were five corpses lying on the ground, and the guests in the second room were also replaced. It was an androgynous young man. His gestures exuded a strong hormonal smell, but this hormonal smell was radiated towards men.
Especially when the man in the second room saw Master Qi in the first room, he gave him a wink.
"Fatty."
Qian Wanyu threw the white cloth that she had finished using to wipe her whip of blood onto the corpse. The white cloth unfolded and covered the deceased's face, "We want to bet."
Fatty was stunned for a moment, then he laughed out loud, he had probably never seen a newcomer react so quickly, he said, "You guys shouldn't be betting, this is not in line with the rules of the residence…"
Wei Junlan hung the sword around his neck and asked with a smile, "That so?"
Fatty has always been very alert of Qian Wanyu, but Wei Junlan took advantage of it. When he felt the icy cold sword on his neck, the flesh on his body shivered, and he hurriedly laughed, "Yes, absolutely yes, I saw the two outside just now—"
"Three." Dongfang Minghui expressed her displeasure. She was ignored again and again. Her face sank, and her displeased face was written all over her face.
"Yes, yes, it's three." Fatty was kidnapped and led them directly to the place where the bets were placed.
Qian Wanyu took a glance and quickly found their room number 5, which signified the room they were in. The odds were quite high. It seemed that there were many people who bet against them and lost. Little Minghui blinked and took out all the spirit stones to hand over to Seventh sister, "Seventh sister, here."
Wei Junlan rolled her eyes and reminded inadvertently, "Small bets can lead to fortune but big bets lead to chaos, take it easy."
Qian Wanyu glanced at her, then bet all the spirit stones Ninth Sister took out to bet on themselves, even Fatty gasped.
The rules of the house were like this. If someone needed to gamble, they must come to the door to challenge the other party in person. When those people who were short of money in Lancerburg heard that there was a girl, a child and a little young man living in the fifth room, they immediately went to the door with interest.
As a result, there were five more corpses lying on the ground, plus the previous two.
The blood of seven people was already on the hands of these three people.
But it is impossible for someone to be successful constantly without losing a match. After the fat man secretly calculated the probability in his heart, he decisively collected their gambling funds, and politely sent them back, and then looked at their bet. With those sort of odds… he hesitated whether to take the next one.
"Seventh sister, just now I felt that the flesh on Fatty's face was tense. Is he afraid of losing money?"
"Maybe." Qian Wanyu didn't pay attention to this fat man. He was at best a pawn and didn't have the brains or power to plan this gambling match behind the scenes.
Wei Junlan said in disapproval, "It is said that Lancerburg's night is the time to eat people without spitting bones. Should we change our strategy?"
"It goes on and on. When the night comes, we may be exhausted from fighting. I think we have to devise a plan. For example, I will deal with the next few people. You recover and we take turns. What do you think?"
Dongfang Minghui nodded in agreement, "Seventh sister, I'm with Wei Junlan."
Qian Wanyu raised her eyebrows. In fact, she didn't need to rest at all. Unconsciously, she was absorbing the spiritual power of the group of people to improve her own spiritual power, so she felt as strong as ever with no exhaustion on her face
"Alright, you have to pay attention to safety."
"Good."
Then it became the battlefield of Wei Junlan and Dongfang Minghui. Wei Junlan looked at her small body and wondered, "Can you fight?"
Both Little Colour and Toothless were closing up. Before, it was her Seventh sister protecting her. Even Dongfang Minghui couldn't help but doubt herself when asked by Wei Junlan, "No matter how bad I am, I can solve a few little mice…"
"Later, we're going to fight for real. I don't doubt you at all. I'm afraid that you will be injured. Your Seventh sister will tear me apart…" Wei Junlan's strength remained at the stage before her beastization, which was not only enough to keep their lives.
"Don't worry, I won't hold you back."
Hearing her reassurance, Wei Junlan found herself even more worried.
Seeing that the three of them were split into two groups, some of them even wanted to sneak in and attack Qian Wanyu from inside the house, but they were scratched by Little White's claws, "Roar—"
Dongfang Minghui and Wei Junlan felt completely relieved now, Seventh sister would be very safe under the protection of Little White.
The battle continued from daylight until the sun went down, and they held their fifth room firmly.
"You three, this is your reward." The fatty came to look for Qian Wanyu and the rest of them. He took a look and found that Qian Wanyu was still sitting on the ground. He simply took out a space ring and delivered it to Wei Junlan's hands.
"Why, worried that we'll continue to bet?" Wei Junlan sneered.
Hearing the movement outside, Qian Wanyu suddenly opened her eyes and saw that the sky was dark and the outside was already noisy. She stood up and Little White entered her soul sea, "Time's up."
As soon as Fatty heard this, he quickly echoed, "This girl is right, the owner does not open at night, so I'm really sorry, this is how much you won today."
It was the first time Dongfang Minghui heard of an inn that was closed at night…but she took the space ring and checked the spirit stones in the ring. The entire five-cubic metre space was filled to two-thirds!
She also took out a few to verify the authenticity.
"Seventh sister, here you go."
Qian Wanyu checked it again, and finally put it into her own space ring, cutting off all the greedy eyes, "Let's go."
When the last ray of light disappeared, the group of them saw a smear of blood red in the place not far from the residence. The bright moonlight seemed to be stained with this color, and it became more coquettish and strange.
A group of people rushed forward in a hurry, as if there was some special treasure or a show to cheer up the place.
The three of them looked at each other and went with the flow, walking forward little by little behind the group. This road is the only way to the outside of Lancerburg. If they want to leave Lancerburg, they must go all the way forward.
"Seventh sister, do you feel that the weather seems to be normal since leaving Lalo City?"
At night, the cool breeze was refreshing, she felt that she had experienced the four seasons of spring, summer and autumn. Thanks to them being Spiritual Masters, they had spiritual power to protect the body, otherwise there would be no way to adapt.
"Naturally." The reason why the situation in Tanu Forest became like that was because of the fire crystal, Lalo City and Lancerburg were affected by the Tanu Forest boundary, and the temperature would change accordingly. When Tanu Forest returns to its original state, the climate of Lalo City and Lancerburg will change again.
"If you didn't explain why I would there were four seasons in this land at the same time." Wei Junlan spread her hands. She felt that the climate here changed too much. Not long after leaving the beast tribe, they experienced ice and snow the hot and dry heat. There was still even a slight autumn wind. Was it time to experience spring when everything recovers in the future?
"I'm not going, I'm not going!"
"You have to go if you don't go, get up for me."
A sudden quarrel came from the corner in front of them. There were two people, one big and one small. The small one was only slightly taller than Dongfang Minghui. He still stubbornly clawed at the wall, as if that wall was his last resort.
The man couldn't pull him free so he broke the child's hand deeply with one elbow.
"What–"
Everyone appeared to be watching the show, and seeing this scene no one was touched or felt bad for the child, their eyes were full of indifference.
Wei Junlan frowned, obviously she couldn't bear it any longer, "Where is he taking this kid?"
"Just follow."
The kid was forcibly dragged away, and when one hand was disabled, he used the other hand. It took a lot of effort for the man to take him away, until the kid's hand swayed softly, the man was finally satisfied, carrying him up like he was carrying a dead piece of wood.
Dongfang Minghui saw the unwillingness in the blood-red eyes of the kid, "He seems to look very young."
"Um."
Just because he was still young and not strong enough, he was merely a chicken waiting to be slaughtered.
Qian Wanyu didn't know what she was thinking and patted her on the back then warned, "Don't sympathize with anyone, and don't trust anyone."
In this place, any sympathy or trust were fatal. They were only staying here for one night then going back on the road. After that, everything here will just be part of their memories and have nothing to do with them.
What's more, what they were seeing was not necessarily what was the truth.
Dongfang Minghui hugged Qian Wanyu's neck, and their skin was close to each other. The warmth of the her body was transmitted from the adjacent skin. She felt very comforted. It seemed inappropriate to do this action in public again when the backlash recovered and she was back in adult form.
It's better to take this opportunity to wipe take advantage of Seventh sister, thinking of this, her hands became more and more skilled.
“Ninth Sister…”
The other party was so small that she couldn't even feel her moving about but Qian Wanyu's snake venom poison hadn't subsided yet and yet she was being gently teased by the other party. Qian Wanyu felt that she couldn't control herself and a certain emotion was trying to raise its head.
Little Minghui pulled her head away from her body and raised a brow, "Why, what's wrong?"
"No, it's fine."
Dongfang Minghui also grabbed her cheek and kissed her twice.
Wei Junlan was almost blinded when she saw it, she shook her head quickly, and turned her eyes to other places, when she saw the scene in the distance, she was stunned, her eyes widened, "Look, what is that?!"
Following the place where her finger pointed, it looked as if a flame ball was falling down. The sphere was very large and seemed to have the shape of a person.
If you take a closer look, it is indeed a person!
"What's with the big fuss." An unremarkable old man beside her scolded, "At first glance, it can be seen you're a newcomer huh, haha this ceremony is prepared for you, enjoy it."
The old man's voice was very soft, so soft that no one could hear what he was saying compared to the cheers around him. Because of this, Little Minghui felt more and more that there was something odd about the old man's words, "Seventh sister, why do I have a bad feeling…"
"Me too."
Wei Junlan's hair stood up. She has never seen any kind of activity that uses people as props for rituals… This opening scene… it was a human, a living person spontaneously combusting!
"What did the old man mean just now?"
Qian Wanyu pondered for a moment, "I think he told us that this is our last supper so we should enjoy it."
Dongfang Minghui felt a little coldness on her back inexplicably, "Seventh sister, what does that mean?"
Wei Junlan also shuddered.
"We need to leave, unless we want to stay here forever."
Lancerburg's regulations were a bit perverted, the requirements for one-day stay were very strict.
The closer they got, the more they heard the cheers of the group of people. There were not so many people when they entered, but there were many strange people at night, the expressions on their faces were all ferocious and crazy.
Dongfang Minghui was cuddled in Qian Wanyu's arms, and she could only see the scenery on the ceremony platform by stretching her neck slightly. She glanced at it twice and her eyes were full of horror. She was sweating coldly, and the contents in her stomach were churning up. She suppressed it but she still wanted to vomit.
"What's wrong?"
There was a tall man in front of Wei Junlan so she couldn't see the stage clearly. Although she couldn't see anything, her nose was very sensitive, and she could smell a strange smell. It was the smell of cooked meat, but it was stronger than the meat of the monsters they grilled before. Looking at Dongfang Minghui's pale and ugly face again, she had a bad guess in her heart.
Qian Wanyu felt the person in her arms tremble twice, she lifted up her toes a little and saw the scenery on the stage clearly. The ground was bright red, and several groups of boiled corpses were randomly thrown on the ground. A large pot was placed in the four corners. The pot was hanging high, and the water in the pot was boiling.
There were several children lying on the ground next to the person. The little boy whose hand was broken before was now desperately crawling out. He seems to already know his fate, but he didn't feel reconciled at all. A man carried him back while he was crawling, beating him to death.
“Seventh sister…”
Dongfang Minghui smelled this smell and felt like vomiting. She could feel the air was full of blood. Does the so-called ritual use people to sacrifice blood?
"It's a blood sacrifice."
Blood sacrifices were a tradition in Lancerburg, these happened once or twice a month. If there was any rule regarding these blood sacrifices, it is probably that whenever a newcomer enters Lancerburg, there will be blood sacrifices. The most worthless people among them will be taken out to be a blood sacrifice for the ceremony, and next… it would probably be their turn.
After Qian Wanyu finished speaking, Wei Junlan and Dongfang Minghui gasped.
"As long as you stay alive until dawn and you are not caught by them, the blood sacrifice will fail, and the people of Lancerburg will open the doors for you to leave."
Qian Wanyu walked out with Dongfang Minghui almost subconsciously. She took out all the human skin masks and clothes from her space ring. She could fight against two single handedly or even three but she was not sure about a hundred people, let alone trying to protect Ninth Sister in front of so many people.
"Quickly dress up again."
"Seventh sister, it's useless, didn't you realize that all the children in Lancerburg were dragged there…" The plan was already a failure. Her height would drag Seventh sister and Wei Junlan back no matter what they tried to disguise as.
Wei Junlan hurriedly put the things that Qian Wanyu threw on Dongfang Minghui's head, "Stop talking nonsense, just do what we tell you to do."
"Okay." Dongfang Minghui felt Lancerburg's malice, and she didn't want to become like the people on the ceremonial stage at all, she didn't want to be a blood sacrifice! She changed her face quickly, and in a blink of an eye, she changed from a young child to an old man with wrinkled skin.
Wei Junlan pushed through the crowd, "Lanceburg has nowhere to hide, what should we do next?"
"Put the sword into your space ring, pretend to be an old man with a hunchback." Qian Wanyu threw a mask to her, and she herself dressed up as a man. She was taller than a normal person already so when she dressed up she immediately looked like a handsome young man.
Dongfang Minghui became an old woman, Wei Junlan became a hunchbacked old man, the two found an inconspicuous corner to squat, so that people couldn't see clearly.
Qian Wanyu dressed up as the enchanting man from before at the inn. Thanks to her outstanding memory, she had already learned the other party's androgynous nature and mannerisms.
"Hey, didn't you say you were going to fool around with that man in your house?"
"Shhhhh, don't say it so loudly, it might make the master in my family even more excited when he hears it. We're all men, so you know…"
The two chatted indiscriminately and Qian Wanyu even leaned over with a lewd face, before she got close to the man, the man stepped back several steps in fright, and hurriedly glanced elsewhere, "Don't get so close, in case someone sees it and spreads it to your family's ears, how do I want to mix later then?"
"Oh, you also know that when he gets up, he wants to do that! You go and play some kung fu while I guard here for you tonight. Next time, you can stand in for me."
"All right."
After Qian Wanyu watched him leave, she breathed a sigh of relief. She had only seen the person for a small period of time, but she could fully imagine the appearance of that man.
"Welcome newcomers to Lancerburg. There are still five hours before dawn. In five hours, if you can find all the six newcomers who have just entered Lancerburg to become blood sacrificers. Master Shin will reward you."
The blood sacrifice ceremony had officially began.
