At the sight of Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie's apprentices rapidly stood up as they bowed towards Zhang Tie respectfully, "Master!"
All the survivors in Xujia Village including Xu Yian also stood up and bowed towards Zhang Tie respectfully. Zhang Tie nodded towards them.
Zhang Tie had people bring the beef stored in the icehouse of the airboat and the two bloody figures who had lost their ability to move. There were almost 200 kg of beef. As they were stored in the icehouse of the airboat, they were very fresh. After being taken out of the icehouse, the moment Zhang Tie opened the sealed box, the bloody smell of the beef had drifted over.
In order to maintain the freshness and taste of the beef, these beef were directly cut and sealed after being slaughtered. They didn't need to be washed at all.
Beside the bonfire, those who had participated in collecting the corpses in the daytime turned pale at once when they smelt the bloody smell of the beef.
Since he ate the first fruit of redemption, Zhang Tie had understood the value of those trivial lives. Therefore, he seldom ate meat. However, this time, Zhang Tie still took all the meat off the airboat.
Zhang Tie nodded silently; he just waved his hand. Bai Suxian's bodyguards behind him then put everything in place.
The bloody beef was put in place one plate after another. A bodyguard even took some iron forks and knives which were specially used for barbecuing. On the other side, some bodyguards took two foldable metal operating tables which could be used for field operations.
After opening the metal operating tables and fixing the limbs, waists, necks and heads of the two bloody figures on the metal operating tables, the atmosphere beside the bonfire became weird.
On one side, there were bloody beef; on the other side, there were two bloody figures on the metal operating tables. 'What does my master want to do?'
In the silence of the crowd, the two bloody men who had lost the ability to move were still struggling on the operating table.
Watching those apprentices, Zhang Tie revealed a smile, revealing his white teeth, "You've not eaten yet, right? I've already prepared supper for you. Each of you has at least 1 kg of beef. You could roast it here. Of course, you can also eat it if you like to eat it half-cooked!"
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, some female apprentices started to vomit at once.
Zhang Tie ignored them; instead, he continued to throw a glance at his other apprentices, "Those who have learned anatomy or surgical rescue, raise your hand..."
Liu Xing and the other 6 apprentices raised their hands at the same time. Over 10 of the other apprentices also raised their hands. What made Zhang Tie a bit surprised was that Zhu Dabiao also raised his hand.
It seemed that those who were born in provincial governors' clans could receive a different education.
"Well, I will leave the two bloody figures to you. As we're all here, you can dissect and analyze the two bloody figures from head to toe. Show us the difference between the two bloody figures' physiological structure and that of commoners. Liu Xing, you guys just give them instructions on one side!"
As for the 121 people of Iron-Dragon Sect, Zhang Tie's words were the imperial edict. After saying that, Zhang Tie sat beside the bonfire with Bai Suxian and started to roast two pieces of beef using iron forks. Liu Xing and those who raised their hands dared not waste time as they immediately prepared to dissect the beef. As for the others, when they saw Zhang Tie roasting the beef, all of them came over here and started to roast the beef with iron forks consciously, whether they looked pale or were retching.
Zhang Tie said that each of them should eat at least 1 kg of beef. No matter how disgusting they were and how much they didn't want to eat meat, they still had to eat it.
"Master, those girls have not experienced this before. Don't you think it's a bit excessive this time?" Bai Suxian whispered to Zhang Tie using battle qi after watching some female apprentices taking the bloody beef and some of them vomiting the moment they took the beef.
"If they couldn't stand such a trivial scene, how could they be my apprentices? Additionally, do you think that there would be fewer scenes like this in Xujia Village in Taixia Country? I brought them out here to practice and travel from time to time! It's already a preferential treatment for them to not eat the flesh of bloody figures... "
"Flesh of bloody figures? You're getting more and more disgusting!"
"Disgusting? Do you know how many human fighters on the battlefields of other subcontinents would even eat the flesh of rotten demonized puppets in order to survive themselves in a desperate situation? If they couldn't pass this test, they would be useless even if they promoted to knights. "
After hearing Zhang Tie's question, Bai Suxian became silent. Zhang Tie was not bragging. Because such a thing had indeed happened in Selnes Theater of Operations. Zhang Tie even witnessed how those human fighters survived the mountains of corpses and seas of blood on Selnes Plain and how those human captives were living in the underground space of Misty Moon Woods every day.
"These two bloody figures are very valuable. While they're still alive, we should cut open their skulls and observe the difference between their brains and that of humans. Many demonized humans have parasitic worms in their brains. You should check their brains to see whether they have parasitic worms in their brains or not! As for the other organs, dissect them one by one... "Watching Liu Xing and the other apprentices picking up various tools and preparing for dissection, Zhang Tie told his apprentices to" start from the beginning "...
Soon after Zhang Tie's words, someone had found a bone saw and started to cut open the skulls of the two bloody figures.
The two bloody figures were not anesthetized; instead, they were fixed on the operating table from head to toe.
With the shrieks of the bloody figures, the bone saw and the skulls of the bloody figures uttered cracking sounds. Closely after that, the skin of the bloody figures was cut open, causing blood to spurt out and spray onto the bodies of those people around the operating table.
When the skulls of the two bloody men were slowly sawed open and blood spurted everywhere, the aroma of the roasted beef on the bonfire had already drifted out. Surprisingly, the two bloody men did not die during this process. Instead, they only screamed loudly along with the sound of the saws rubbing against the bones and struggled futilely on the metal operating table.
At this moment, the greater part of Zhang Tie's apprentices turned pale. It might be the first time for the two apprentices who were holding the saw to do this as their hands were quivering.
Liu Xing and the other apprentices were guiding them on one side. They should not directly cut off the two bloody figures; instead, they should slowly saw along the periphery of the skulls like peeling an apple. The teeth of the saws should not go too deep into the skulls so as not to hurt the brains of the bloody figures.
None of Zhang Tie's disciples had ever done vivisection; especially a bloody figure who looked as same as a human. Therefore, they were all very intense. One of them slipped his saw and cut off a bloody figure's ear, causing the bloody figure to shriek more miserably.
"Let me have a try..." With red eyes, Zhu Dabiao gritted his teeth as he rolled up his sleeves and took the bone saw from the apprentice who cut off the bloody figure's ear. After pressing the bloody figure's badly mutilated head by one hand, Zhu Dabiao started to work. In the beginning, Zhu Dabiao's hand was still quivering. After sawing for a few times, he had stabilized his body.
Zhang Tie threw a glance at Zhu Dabiao, 'Although this guy looks sloppy at ordinary times, he's indeed a bit fierce at the critical moment.'
All the surviving young men and Xu Yian in Xujia Village had long been silent; especially those young men who watched what happened here with dumbfounded looks as they felt that Fire Dragon Hermit's image became a bit terrifying for the first time.
Xu Yian didn't tell these young men that they would join Zhang Tie in the future. Therefore, those young men didn't know that their fates had been closely related to Zhang Tie in the future.
As Xu Yian had been a soldier, he had already guessed Zhang Tie's intention. When he was in the army, he had experienced the same battle. However, he was not as fierce as Zhang Tie at that time. Zhang Tie directly found two LV 9 bloody figures to dissect them alive.
Xu Yian threw a glance at the surviving young men whose faces were also pale as he made a decision inside. Closely after that, he came to Zhang Tie's side.
"Hermit, do you have any meat in your airboat?"
Zhang Tie threw a glance at Xu Yian, "Do you want it too?"
"We want it too!" Xu Yian replied resolutely.
"Fine!" Zhang Tie called a guard beside Bai Suxian, "Give them 100 kg of beef!"
After receiving the order, the guard left. After a short while, he brought back the knives and forks for beef and roasted meat and gave them to Xu Yian.
Xu Yian watched those young men in Xujia Village with red eyes as he gritted his teeth and said, "We also want to eat meat. By eating meat, we can gain strength and avenge our family members!"
Xu Yian started to eat meat, closely followed by all the young men in Xujia Village.
...
"Let's eat..."
As the skulls had not been completely cut off, the roasted meat was not fully cooked. Being covered with blood streaks, some people might feel it was tender; however, for those who had seen too many bloody corpses today, Zhang Tie's words were like a curse.
Those who had felt that Zhang Tie was amiable since they became Zhang Tie's disciples didn't discover the solemn and cold side of their master until now.
Nobody dared refuse Zhang Tie's order, even though the beef had not been cooked yet.
Closely after Zhang Tie, all the others started to eat.
Many people had started to vomit after the first mouthful. However, at the sight of Zhang Tie's glassy-eyed face, they still gritted their teeth and continued to eat.
Two minutes after they started to enjoy the meat, the skull of the first bloody figure had been cut open. Closely after that, the brain was exposed. What was terrifying was that a grey octopus-like puppet worm that had already integrated with the brain of the bloody figure could be seen on the exposed brain tissue of the bloody figure …
All of a sudden, a puppet worm wriggled as if it wanted to shrink back into the brain of the bloody figure. However, before that bizarre puppet worm shrank back into the brain, the person who was responsible for dissecting the brain had already picked it up from the brain of the bloody figure by a pair of tweezers.
When the puppet worm left the brain of the bloody figure, the bloody figure suddenly quivered all over while rolling his eyes. Only after quivering for a few seconds, he had completely become still. The tentacles of the puppet worm wanted to stick onto the brain of the bloody figure; however, when it was picked out, the brain of the bloody figure was also destroyed by the octopus-like puppet worm.
Under the flame, that thing was put on a surgical tray. It was still wriggling as if it wanted to climb out of the tray. It was very disgusting. Many people who had just stopped vomiting started to vomit again.
"Haha, I wonder whether it tastes good or not!" Zhang Tie burst out into laughter as he picked himself up and came to the front of the surgical table. Closely after that, he caught that wriggling puppet worm by one hand and walked to the front of the bonfire. Closely after that, he put the puppet worm on the bonfire and started to roast it.
The puppet worm kept struggling and wriggling in Zhang Tie's hand; however, it gradually stopped moving in the flame while giving off a layer of oil...
Under the gaze of everyone else, after a few minutes, Zhang Tie's hand remained perfectly fine in the flame like performing a magic. However, the puppet worm in his hand had been roasted. Zhang Tie then put that roasted octopus-like puppet worm into his mouth and started to chew it, causing crispy sounds as he praised it as tasty.
After eating this thing that was taken out of the brain of the bloody figure, Zhang Tie threw a glance at all his disciples, "In the previous holy wars, demon armies could feed on humans. No matter where they were, they didn't worry about food supply. All the humans would change their faces at the mention of demons. Can you treat demons as your food? Can you make demons change their faces at the mention of you one day? Or do you think that Taixia Country would be peaceful forever? Do you think that wars and turmoil would have nothing to do with you? Do you think that you only need to cultivate peacefully? After this event in Zhongzhou Province, do you think that demons and Heavens Reaching Church would only have one bloody sea in Pingsha Valley, Longxi Prefecture, Zhongzhou Province? Although we all hope so, if you really think so, don't tell others that you're my disciple. I don't have such a stupid disciple. "
"Do you know why I took you to Zhongzhou Province? Because I want to show you the war that you might face in Taixia Country in the future and what your opponents are like so as to prepare for it in advance. As your master, I don't hope that you could promote to knights in the future; instead, I hope that you could survive after this holy war. Only those who are alive could have a future. I'm afraid that you would be involved in a difficult situation without any preparation... "
After saying that, Zhang Tie threw a glance at Bai Suxian. Bai Suxian then walked towards him. Closely after that, they returned to the airboat.
Beside the bonfire, everybody became silent once again. Closely after that, someone started to chew the bloody beef in his hand...
The autopsy continued. Although someone was still vomiting, the sound of them chewing the beef grew louder and louder...
As the first disciple of Zhang Tie, Liu Xing roasted that disgusting worm which was stained with bloody brain over the fire and ate it with a calm look... (To be continued)
