My brother is so cunning.
Chapter 3 The Cruel Truth of the Catacombs
In an empty, majestic and solemn underground hall, He Lingyun widened his eyes and looked at the "wonderful scene" in front of him in disbelief.
This empty stalactite hall located deep on the ground floor is divided into several areas. The western area is full of tombstones and tombs. The northern area has more than a dozen sarcophagus towers with densely packed urns. The southern and eastern areas are even weirder, with rows of them. , line by line, the remains of countless female corpses, insects, snakes, birds, beasts and other spiritual beasts sealed in crystal covers!
There are spherical crystal lamps hanging high on the ceiling of the hall. The lights are incandescent and bright, illuminating the huge underground hall as if it were daytime.
It was very clear to see under the light. The female corpses and the remains of spiritual beasts and spiritual birds seemed to have been specially processed. Upon closer inspection, the skin was bright red, the fur was smooth, and the feathers were distinct. They were lifelike. If they were not motionless and lifeless, He Lingyun would not be able to see them at all. I thought they were just sleeping here.
In order to prove that the so-called "remains donation agreement" was not just a lie, Brother Jinguang Zongwen brought He Lingyun here and used tombs, urns and remains sealed in crystal coffins to formulate the "remains donation agreement". Endorsement of the authenticity of the book.
"After signing the donation agreement, in addition to getting what you want immediately, no matter where you die, I will retrieve your remains and bury you peacefully here after completing the anatomy and sampling study."
Wen Rui still had the tone of enthusiastic salesmanship, and while spreading his hands to show the "wonders" of the underground hall, he talked eloquently:
"You can also choose your own burial method. If you want to be buried in peace, I will build a tomb and erect a monument for you. If you want to return to dust, I will cremate you into ashes. If you want to retain your appearance, I will also use my makeup preservation technology to preserve your body. A must.”
As he spoke, he gestured as if he was promoting a high-end cave: "What you see is the cemetery of fallen monks from the Lishan Immortal Sect over the past three hundred years. It can be described as a high-end community, with good winds and water, underground CBD, and immortal life. The back garden is absolutely solemn and majestic, with a one-stop service for setting up mourning halls, delivering paper money, and funeral services. If you want, we can find six Kunlun slaves to dance and carry the coffin for you..."
He Lingyun neither understood nor understood a word. She was shocked at the moment. Although she had long known that the disciples of Lishan Immortal Sect were in miserable situations and were often suppressed and bullied. Every year, many fellow disciples and sisters who went out to collect resources privately had disappeared since then. There was no news, and she had guessed that they had probably died.
However, seeing so many tomb remains with my own eyes confirmed my previous speculations and completely dispelled the luck that "perhaps so-and-so senior sister just found a small cave to retreat and meditate and never came back." Faced with the cold and cruel reality, It was still difficult for He Lingyun to adjust his mood for a while, and sadness kept pouring out of his heart.
"So many sisters have died..."
He Lingyun murmured that her original determination to pursue the Tao seemed to be somewhat shaken. With the resources extremely scarce and the external environment so dangerous, the sect could not provide protection. A non-human monk like her, even if she could cultivate A person who is full of Xuanmen righteousness and has not done any bad deeds in his life will hardly have any chance of becoming enlightened. I am afraid that in the near future he will become a tomb in this hall, a handful of loess.
Wen Rui seemed to be completely unaware of the despair she had shown, and still used his business-like tone to promote diligently:
"Junior Sister He, I don't need to say anything when you see the scene here. You should be able to understand it by yourself. What the remnants of the Jiejiao Cult are facing today is such a harsh reality. You never know which one will come first, tomorrow or death. In this case, let’s face the reality. By signing a donation agreement, you can not only immediately obtain the resources and magic weapons that are in short supply at the moment, but also ensure that you will at least die with value and dignity in the future.”
"What does it mean to die with dignity?" He Lingyun suppressed his surging emotions, pointed at the corpse sealed in the crystal cover and said coldly: "Like this?"
"What if?"
Wen Rui calmly spread his hands and said: "Do you think those monks from the Interpretation, Humanity, and Western religions openly or quietly hunt down our non-human disciples of the Interception Sect because they claim to 'eliminate demons and protect the Tao'? Demon cultivators can be described as Every body is a treasure, especially the corpses of demon cultivators who have practiced Zhengfa and contain a lot of pure spiritual energy. When refined into magic weapons, flying swords have a very high grade bonus, and each one is worth a lot of money.”
Tilting his head, the human monk glanced at He Lingyun expressionlessly, as if valuing her body, and said in a calm tone: "Do you want to be hunted like a wild beast, and then kill your people with skin, bones, and feathers?" Take it apart and refine it into a weapon to continue hunting your kind?"
At this point, he paused and his voice became a bit colder: "Even if it is a wild beast, a wolf will tear its own fur after falling into a trap, not wanting the hunter to benefit from its death!"
He Lingyun was startled when she heard this. Although she has been transformed for more than two hundred years and has reached the realm of pill formation, due to the special situation of the sect, she has never stepped out of the Lishan Mountains a few times. Her experience is almost as low as that of the person in front of her. Human monks who cannot detect spiritual energy, but have experienced the Great Tribulation of the Gods, and who usually open their doors for business and have close contact with the outside world, cannot be compared at all.
"Back then, in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, three thousand mortals were kidnapped by the Western Cult as slaves and used as mounts. Three thousand mortals died on the spot, and their bodies were recovered by the disciples of the Chan Sect who were cleaning up the battlefield. That was not a waste of resources."
Wen Rui continued: "The monsters practicing in the mountains and wilds, not to mention the mixed auras that cannot be cultivated, and some cannibalistic ones with a fishy stinking aura, cannot be refined into high-grade immortal magic weapons.
At this point, he pointed at He Lingyun and continued: "For a non-human monk like you, who is from the Jiejiao sect, who practices the righteous method, has pure spiritual energy, clear Taoist heart, and no karma and evil spirits, that is the best training material. Nowadays, Chan Jiao, Western Jiao and Human Jiao are getting stronger and stronger, and the sects are opening up. Sanye, the materials accumulated in the previous Conferred God War are no longer enough, and the resources of the cultivation world are gradually becoming scarce. The third and fourth generations of disciples want to get a good treasure that is enough to build the foundation of enlightenment. Instead of going to the secret realm to explore and collect, they also It’s better to hunt down the remnants of the ‘furry and horned’ cult.”
Shaking his head slowly, the human monk who had always spoken calmly finally had some mood swings, and his tone slowed down and he sighed softly: "The older the Mother of God, the less courageous she becomes. After retreating from the battlefield of Ten Thousand Immortals, she will be I have no intention of competing with the Chan Sect and the Western Sect. I only hold on to the last ray of incense of the Jie Sect. Immortal, I am afraid that in the future, we will have to work hard to make peace with Western religions and Chanjiao, try to gradually integrate, and strive to become a so-called "normalized" Taoist sect. I think Lishan Xianzong will end up like a certain country in the future. After using it, eat it and wipe it clean, then throw it aside to die!”
At this point, his tone changed and he said coldly: "Now some branch sects of the Chan Sect have regarded Lishan as a breeding ground for demon cultivators, and slaughtered Lishan Sect's disciples who went out for training as livestock!"
He Lingyun was dripping with cold sweat as she listened. The emotions of anger, humiliation mixed with helplessness and loss almost made her unable to breathe. She took a few deep breaths. She suddenly thought of something, as if she had found an outlet to vent her anger, and said angrily: "Outsiders" Covet us too That's all. As a fellow Jie Jiao, aren't you still trying to squeeze out the value of the corpses of our Lishan disciples? You've even opened a shop selling magic weapons! You must have made a lot of money from dead people over the years. This is what you call 'death'. Gotta be valuable'?"
When Wen Rui heard this, he shook his head indifferently. He spread his hands and said, "You are not the first one to doubt me before signing the donation letter. Please use your spiritual consciousness to sense it." The remains in the tomb over there and in the crystal coffin are not damaged at all."
Released spiritual consciousness, with He Lingyun's cultivation in the realm of pill formation, the range of perception soon covered the entire hall. Just as Wen Rui said, whether it was buried in the tomb or sealed in the crystal cover, every body The remains are basically intact, at least the scales, feathers, horns, claws, bones and even the inner elixir that are most valuable for refining into magic weapons are not missing, and even the abundant spiritual power attached to them has not been extracted.
Facts speak louder than words. If the human monk in front of him wanted to use the remains of Lishan disciples to make a fortune, he would definitely not keep them so intact. He Lingyun was refuted and was speechless.
All this seemed logical to Wen Rui's explanation, but after careful consideration, there were many doubts. Her mind was spinning and she questioned: "Then what is your intention in doing this? Since these remains are so valuable for outsiders to compete for. , With your cultivation, taking back so many remains is like pulling out a tooth from a tiger's mouth, pulling a chestnut out of a fire, how did you do it?"
"Being able to escape from the Ten Thousand Immortals battlefield where 'golden immortals are everywhere and the heavenly immortals are as numerous as dogs' naturally means that I have some skills to save my life. Back then, I threw one at Yuanshi Tianzun from 800 miles away in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation. Shuriken, am I proud? Besides, if I can’t steal it, why don’t I cheat? If I can’t steal it, why don’t I buy it?”
He Lingyun frowned when he heard this. He didn't believe it no matter what, the low-level sloppy Taoist in front of him had fought against legendary saints like Yuanshi Tianzun.
Wen Rui shrugged and said: "As for the plot, I have told you a long time ago that these remains are of extremely high scientific research value to me. I have obtained physiological, biochemical, and genetic research results according to the agreement. Of course, I must fulfill the burial requirements." The obligation to donate the body. Even if we are talking about business, regardless of comradeship, I still have to talk about basic credibility. Otherwise, how can I continue to benefit from the benefits of the Lishan Immortal Sect's junior sisters? "
This human senior brother spoke so frankly and openly about squeezing and exploiting his junior sister. He Lingyun was speechless and stood there in shock with his eyes wide open. The outside monks killed the chickens to get the eggs, knocked the bones and sucked out the marrow. This person had a close relationship with the Lishan Immortal Sect. I heard that the elder brother was forcing him even half a point, which was just plucking the hair, drawing blood, and desecrating the corpse.
Wen Rui didn't care about the sad expression on her face. He took out the jade slip from his arms again, handed it to the front and said: "Junior sister, this 'body donation' project has been explained clearly. La, do you want to think about it?”
Seeing that He Lingyun did not answer, he continued to talk: "Please believe me, you will die sooner or later. If you live in the present, you can exchange your remains for benefits." Combined with various parameters and the ending samples of Lishan Sect disciples in the past, we calculated If you study the principles and calculate, your chance of becoming an immortal and ascending to heaven is only one in 10 to the 62nd power. The chance of death within one year is 15%, within ten years it is 48%, within a hundred years it is 76%, and if it exceeds a hundred years it reaches 99.6%. Not to mention that after you sign this agreement, you can get something you urgently need now, I will do the same after you die. I'll build a monument and a tomb in your memory, and pay homage to you during the holidays. Isn't this just a free bargain?"
He Lingyun gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes slightly as he glared at Wen Rui. If he really wanted to, he would just kill someone and seize the treasure. Now that the flying sword is damaged and his strength is weak, he may not be able to defeat this person. The profiteer brother who was able to escape from the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation back then was unlikely to have any tricks to take advantage of him.
I was still angry, but after thinking about it calmly, I realized that what Senior Brother Wen said was quite reasonable, and it was consistent with the current predicament faced by the demon cultivator disciples of the entire Lishan Immortal Sect.
Sighing deeply, He Lingyun fiercely snatched the jade slip, concentrated his spiritual power on his fingertips, and carved three bronze characters "He Lingyun" on the jade slip.
Seeing her signing the agreement, Wen Rui couldn't hide his joy. At the same time, his eyes stared at He Lingyun's body and wandered up and down, as if declaring that this body was his, and he was looking forward to what he said about this body in the future. "Physiological anatomy, organ observation, tissue sampling and testing, cell microstructure analysis, gene sequence analysis, etc." A series of things that He Lingyun couldn't understand, but sounded scary and disgusting.
"I've finished signing, please give me the flying sword!"
He Lingyun threw the jade slip back and urged it impatiently. She really didn't want to face this senior brother Wen for a moment, and she especially hated the evil look he looked at her. It almost made her feel extremely physically uncomfortable.
However, Wen Rui put away the jade slips unhurriedly, showed a meaningful smile to He Lingyun, and said: "As for the flying sword, I will definitely offer it, but..."
As soon as he heard the word "but", He Lingyun's heart trembled. He thought that he might have been deceived by this thief. His face turned cold and he shouted in a cold voice: "But what? If I can't get the flying sword today, I will dismantle it." Kill you, this black shop, and kill you, the profiteer who exploits your fellow disciples!”
"Don't get me wrong..."
Wen Rui quickly waved his hand and said: "I always keep my word, I will definitely give you the flying sword, but it is not a flying sword in a narrow sense, but a flying sword in a broad sense. The appearance may be different from what my junior sister imagined, but I can guarantee it. "The new flying sword I developed is far superior to traditional flying swords of the same level in terms of comprehensive combat effectiveness, operational sensitivity, functionality and maneuverability. It can be said to be a fighter among flying swords."
He Lingyun narrowed her eyes and squinted at this senior brother Wen who was full of weird words. She neither understood nor wanted to understand, and she was even less willing to believe this guy. She seemed to be convinced now that he was as simple as a blank sheet of paper. Like me, I must have been deceived by the treacherous human senior brother.
