Chapter 415: Human Skin Demon
After Yu Changsheng joined the Ran Sect, he told Lu Ran and the others a lot of information.
Lu Ran naturally also knew the name of the powerful sea realm master Dongfang Ning.
He is still thinking about taking revenge in the future!
As a result, this woman came to the door first.
Yu Changsheng suddenly asked, "How do you know where we are?"
Yu Changsheng does not have a fixed residence, and he has only recently settled in the mountain lake.
"I, I don't know." The tall woman said in a trembling voice, "I just followed the team. It was the master, Dongfang Ning, who ordered us here."
Yu Changsheng's face was not very good. He turned to Lu Ran and said apologetically: "Master, this matter should be blamed on me."
Lu Ran was puzzled: "Why do you say that?"
Yu Changsheng: "Before, we stayed in the lake area for a few days, so it is inevitable that there will be some traces of activities left."
Lu Ran: "That was due to my and Meng Yan's carelessness. It has nothing to do with Mr. Conglong."
Yu Changsheng pondered and said, “There are few lakes in the mountains, and it is easy to attract human and demon investigations, so it is not a good place to stay.
But I am a believer in dragon carp and have become accustomed to recuperating in water.
I am afraid that the enemy may think that we are the ones stationed in the lake area because of me."
Listening to Yu Changsheng's detailed reasoning, Lu Ran did not comment and waved his hand casually:
"Next topic."
Yu Changsheng was stunned for a moment, but seeing that Lu Ran was determined not to pursue the matter, he didn't know what to say.
Thanks for having nothing to do tonight!
If there is even the slightest mistake, the three members of Ranmen will be in life-and-death crisis!
Yu Changsheng lowered his eyes.
Now, I am no longer alone, and I can't just walk away casually.
Not only do I have colleagues, I also have a leader to follow.
Yu Changsheng felt more and more guilty.
Some details need to be considered in advance and you need to be more cautious.
Deng Yuxiang asked coldly: "How many of you are here?"
The tall woman responded in a trembling voice: "Nearly 30 people. Led by Dongfang Ning, four Sea Realm Sword One disciples led the team, and the rest are us slaves."
Lu Ran: "Four Sea Realm Sword One disciples?"
The tall woman begged, "My Lord! I am just a slave. I was forced. I have no choice."
"Shut up." Deng Yuxiang said in a low voice.
The tall woman shuddered and did not dare to disobey Deng Yuxiang's order. She could only look at Lu Ran pleadingly.
Of course she could tell that this young man was the leader.
She also recognized early on that the young man with four knives on his back was Dongfang Ning's target.
Before setting off, Dongfang Ning gave a death order that if the prey really came, he could ignore anyone else and must kill this "evil dog youth" first!
I really don’t know how this young man offended Dongfang Ning.
And is he a dog believer?
Isn't he a follower of the evil demon Qiansiying?
Thinking of this, the woman became even more desperate!
Falling into the hands of such a person would definitely be a fate worse than death!
It’s over.
Completely finished!
The woman knew that this day would come sooner or later.
In this Holy Spirit Mountain, she is the lowest being. Her life or death depends entirely on the mood of Jianyi's disciples.
But she really didn't expect that the one waiting for her at the end of her life would be an extremely cruel follower of Qiansiying!
Fear, powerlessness, despair
The woman couldn't hold back her tears and they flowed out.
As her emotions gradually collapsed, she forgot Deng Yuxiang's orders and begged in a trembling voice: "Please, I am just a slave, I was coerced, please spare my life."
She kept shaking her head, as if she wanted to wake up from a nightmare: "I don't want to come to this place, I really don't want to come! I have children at home, and I still have a mother."
The trembling cry was heartbreaking.
The woman seemed to suddenly wake up and realized that this was Holy Spirit Mountain.
While Deng Yuxiang was still silent, the woman begged, "Please give me a quick death! Don't torture me, please, sir, give me a quick death."
Lu Ran: "Shh."
The woman was completely voiceless and her face was ashen.
"Master, Jianshan Peak has dispatched four powerful sea realm warriors. We'd better stay away from them for the time being." Yu Changsheng suggested.
As if worried about Lu Ran's youthful vigor, Yu Changsheng added: "Jianshan Peak is standing there, and he can't run away. Once we improve our strength, it won't be too late to come back for revenge!"
Lu Ran nodded silently.
Seeing this scene, Yu Changsheng felt relieved and continued, "Let's find another place to rest. This woman."
"Take it with you." Lu Ran said directly.
Deng Yuxiang listened to the woman's sobbing and turned to look at Lu Ran.
The Holy Spirit Mountain Realm is a killing battlefield deliberately arranged by the gods, and it is also a breeding ground for sin.
If all the people in this world were pulled out and stood in a row.
If we execute them one by one, there might be some innocent people.
Kill every one we meet, there will definitely be some that slip through the net!
But Deng Yuxiang also knew that what the middle-aged woman in front of her said was true.
Weakness is the original sin.
This woman cannot control her own destiny.
You can't expect everyone to have the courage to die with dignity.
Survival is human nature.
No matter how difficult life is, who doesn't fantasize and yearn for a glimmer of hope?
"Take her with you?" Deng Yuxiang looked at Lu Ran and loosened her hand that was pinching the woman's neck.
Lu Ran took back the red thread.
With a plop, the woman hanging in the air fell to the ground.
She hurriedly raised her head, wiped her moist eyes, and looked at Lu Ran in shock and fear.
Lu Ran asked: "What's your name?"
"Jing, Jinghong." The woman stammered, "Jing of thorns, Hong of red."
"strength."
"Fourth stage of Jiangjing."
"How long have you been at Holy Spirit Mountain?"
"About seven or eight years, maybe more than ten years." Jing Hong responded cautiously, not quite sure.
Lu Ran: "The year is 2020 in the human world."
Jing Hong was a little dazed, and it took her a while to react: "I have been in this world for seven years." Lu Ran nodded: "Then you should be very familiar with the Holy Spirit Mountain Realm?"
Jing Hong looked sad: "I, I just came here not long ago, and I was captured by Jianshan Peak."
Have you been a slave for seven years?
This fate is really miserable.
This group of Jianyi believers were arrogant and extremely cold when they were on earth.
After coming to Holy Spirit Mountain, he really regarded human life as worthless and turned into a slave owner who oppressed and harmed all living beings!
Lu Ran was silent for a moment, then said, "From now on, you will follow us."
Jing Hong was stunned, and then quickly knelt down: "Yes, sir, I will serve you with all my heart."
Lu Ran frowned slightly and interrupted him: "Stand up, we don't need these here. You are just a tool in Dongfang Ning's hand, I won't do anything to you.
But you have seen many of my secrets, and I can’t let you go back.”
"Yes, yes!" Jing Hong obeyed the order hurriedly, stood up tremblingly, and a glimmer of hope of life emerged in her heart.
Even if this young man was an extremely cruel follower of Qiansiying, she would accept it!
If possible, even if there is the slightest possibility, Jing Hong still wants to live.
She hopes that one day, she can see her children and her mother.
I don't know how to get home.
Maybe it's flying into the sky.
Although, the most likely outcome is total destruction.
However, the followers of War Horn do not have the ability to fly.
The difficulty of ascending to heaven and the feeling of despair are difficult for believers in powerful gods to understand.
But no matter what, survive first!
First you have to survive.
"You take her with you." Lu Ran looked at Deng Yuxiang, "Ask her for more information about Jianshan Peak."
"Yes." Deng Yuxiang nodded in response.
She had no objection to Lu Ran's decision and obeyed it unconditionally.
Yu Changsheng, who was standing aside, did not make any suggestion this time.
"Let's go east. Walk farther and then find a place to rest." Lu Ran was the first to walk out of the cave.
"Wait a moment." Yu Changsheng nodded slightly to Deng Yuxiang and followed him out quickly.
Deng Yuxiang remained silent, leaving the two of them enough space.
"call"
Outside the cave, Lu Ran let out a long sigh of relief.
Yu Changsheng stood behind Lu Ran and whispered, "Holy Spirit Mountain is very ugly. It is rare that the Sect Master is willing to retain a little kindness towards his fellow tribesmen in this world."
Lu Ran asked, "Sir, do you support my decision? Don't you think this is a hidden danger?"
Yu Changsheng smiled and said, "She is only at the fourth stage of Jiang Realm. What kind of waves can she stir up?"
Lu Ran: “.”
Just saying hurtful words!
I am still only at Jiangjing Level 2.
Yu Changsheng said softly: “As long as this person understands a little gratitude, when she realizes that you and Dongfang Ning are fundamentally different, she will eventually be grateful to you.
Thank you for saving her from such a difficult time."
As he said this, Yu Changsheng added in his mind: If this person is unreasonable and dares to have the slightest bit of disloyalty, then I will clean him up myself!
Yu Changsheng's support for Lu Ran is not just lip service.
He is confident that he can protect Lu Ran.
However, Yu Changsheng felt that if there was a real situation, Deng Yuxiang should have already taken action before he did.
"Maybe." Lu Ran felt a little complicated.
Since entering the Holy Spirit Mountain Realm, he has been taught lesson after lesson.
In the human world, strength is also respected.
But at least it is wrapped in the shell of law and is still subject to moral constraints.
Can be within this boundary.
People can no longer be called "people".
We are all evil spirits in human skin.
Pure evil.
Lu Ran has a belief in his heart: he will adapt to this place, but he is unwilling to integrate into it.
My mother's earnest teachings still linger in my ears:
“Don’t lose yourself.”
Now that I think about it, my mother’s warning may not just be directed at matters concerning gods and demons.
Maybe she was also warning him not to let the Holy Spirit Mountain destroy his humanity.
Lu Ran thought about his mother's gentle face, as if he was back in the study room again, and saw her drinking tea across from the desk.
In a trance, he seemed to smell the faint scent of jasmine.
"Yeah." Lu Ran shook his head vigorously and came to his senses.
His gaze penetrated the pitch-black night, looked at the distant mountains, and casually summoned out an ancient bronze mirror.
In the back, in the cave where golden rain was falling.
With the help of the faint light, Jing Hong saw the evil magic that belonged only to the Evil Mirror Demon clan.
Evil mirror and evil magic? !
"Gulp." Jing Hong was shocked and couldn't help swallowing.
Until now, she still hadn't figured out what kind of existence she was following.
Deng Yuxiang glanced at Jing Hong indifferently.
Jing Hong knelt down subconsciously, her body trembling slightly, and she lowered her head in panic.
Having been a slave for seven years, she had already learned how to serve her master through endless oppression and torture.
Deng Yuxiang: “.”
"He just said that we don't use these here." Deng Yuxiang looked at the woman with messy short hair, "From now on, change to one knee."
Although it is just a small change in posture, the meaning can be very different.
"Yes." Jing Hong was very well-behaved and obeyed orders very well.
"Let's go." Yu Changsheng's voice came from outside.
"Walk."
