In Guiding Light City, in the courtyard where a great battle almost broke out just now.
The corpses of men and women were stacked into a very neat cube.
A stone pillar rose from the ground, piercing through these corpses and sticking its head out from the center. Then it quickly spread out, forming a stone platform with complicated carvings.
If these corpses were removed, this stone platform would become an umbrella shape.
With these corpses filling it up …
This was a sacrificial altar.
Or rather, a divination altar.
The lives of the people in the courtyard were gone just like that.
Thinking about it, if there was a reincarnation, if there was a ghost servant asking why they died.
They wouldn't be able to answer.
Sometimes, human life wasn't as tenacious as ants. The huge difference in strength made it difficult for some cultivators to treat humans as humans.
Sometimes, the human world was like purgatory.
At this moment, a man wearing scholar's clothes was standing in front of this sacrificial altar. Dipping his finger in blood, he drew a frightening pattern on the stone platform — —
It was a headless man with strange patterns on his naked body.
The details were gradually filled out under his finger.
The great general of Guiding Light City, Jing Ye, was tied tightly to his hands and feet like a pig and thrown into a corner of the courtyard.
"Fortune teller!" Zheng Fei glanced at Jing Ye maliciously: "Why didn't you kill him?"
The fortune teller drew seriously, not turning his head.
"This person can't be killed." He said.
"Why?" Zheng Fei asked blankly.
"Yeah, why!" Li Shou hurriedly agreed.
The fortune teller said calmly: "There's no why."
The fortune teller seemed to have a good temper and didn't care about their rude words. But even people like Zheng Fei and Li Shou knew that if the fortune teller didn't want to say, then it was best for them not to ask anymore.
But the Ten Thousand Fiend was the Ten Thousand Fiend after all. Zheng Fei took the opportunity to negotiate: "Then you have to let us play something fun!"
"Yeah, yeah!" Li Shou continued to be a follower.
The fortune teller carefully finished the last stroke and put his index finger in his mouth, gently sucking it clean.
Then he commented: "Your killing methods are too rough. Your emotions aren't enough and your state is a bit lacking. The taste isn't very good."
After that, he turned around and smiled at Zheng Fei. "Didn't you want to find that toy? I'll help you find it now. "
Not only was Zheng Fei not happy, but he was also wary. "I didn't ask you for help!"
The Fortune Teller said, "Don't worry, I was the one who initiated the divination. We won't charge you. "
He revealed a slightly strange smile. "I'm very willing."
…
…
Linzi City's prosperity was naturally the best in the Eastern Region. It could be said that carriages flowed like water and horses were like dragons.
The world-renowned Fragrant Three Portions Restaurant could only be ranked below the four famous restaurants in such a majestic city, even though they had invested a huge amount of resources into it.
However, during this period of time, it had been very popular. It had attracted the attention of some rich and powerful people.
Xiang Ling 'er, the fifth ranked Heavenly Fragrance from the headquarters of the Three Fragrances House, was a living signboard that made people scramble like ducks.
She was temporarily assigned to manage this branch building in Linzi City. It was said that they were going to make this place comparable to the headquarters. There were also rumors that Fragrant House was going to move its headquarters to Qi.
In short, as soon as Xiang Ling 'er appeared in Linzi, she attracted countless wild bees and butterflies, all fighting to catch a glimpse of her beautiful face.
Although everyone knew that the Heavenly Fragrance and Heart Fragrance of the Three Fragrances House were essentially at the Transcendent level. The Transcendent power of the Three Fragrances House could be seen as a Transcendent sect. The Three Fragrances House, which was a brothel, was different from the Three Fragrances House, which was a Transcendent sect.
However, because of the reputation of the Three Fragrances House, it was inevitable that people would have ambiguous associations.
They always felt that … the chances were very high.
And this Xiang Ling 'er was innocent, pure, and amiable. She was unforgettable and could not help but feel pity for her.
There was a famous scholar who praised her, "National beauty is pure and innocent. Fortunately, she is innocent."
Her charm was exhausted.
It could be said that the young masters of Linzi had to bow down to her.
Of course, Xiang Ling 'er rarely appeared to entertain anyone.
At this moment, she had a bright smile on her face as she skipped through the corridors and turned the curtains.
Anyone who saw her would think that she was an innocent girl.
With a creak, she was pushed into a pink room.
"Ah!" She said happily, "My good sister, you're finally back?"
Mei Yue, who was dressed in black and had half her face covered by a thin veil, was sitting in her pink room. Next to her was a tea table.
Her bewitching eyes turned slightly. "I heard that you were drinking tea with a noble from the Junggenjia? I've only been gone for a few days, but you've already managed this place so well. You're really amazing. "
Xiang Ling 'er was discouraged when she heard this. She curled her lips. "I thought we could talk about some cooperation, but I didn't expect you to be just an embroidered pillow. You wasted my time!"
Mei Yue smiled and said, "You're already so old. You should have some experience."
Xiang Ling 'er rolled her eyes. "You're just an embroidered pillow!"
Mei Yue gently tapped the tea. "You gave birth to someone like Chongxuan, Fenghua. You shouldn't be as bad as you say."
"My son didn't take the bait, so I had to start with my father." Xiang Ling 'er sighed and looked very unhappy. "At first, I thought he was just pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. I chatted and laughed with him and spent a lot of effort, but I didn't expect him to be just a pig! A pig pretending to be a pig, no wonder they look so similar! "
Mei Yue couldn't help but laugh. "I can't find a mouth like yours anywhere. It's like you're smeared with arsenic. You just have to insult people!"
Xiang Ling 'er giggled and leaned forward. "How could that be, my good sister? If you don't believe me, you can taste it. It's sweet! "
Mei Yue looked at her with a smile. She didn't say anything, but she didn't avoid her either.
She was eighty to ninety percent naive, but she was a hundred and twenty percent charming.
Halfway through, Xiang Ling 'er felt bored and stopped. She turned around and sat on a stool next to her. She reached out for the teacup on the table, but her eyes were fixed on Mei Yue. "My good sister, you're so mysterious. Where did you go? We agreed to come to the Eastern Region together and work together, but you're so cruel. You always make me feel lonely and can't sleep at night. "
"Sister." Mei Yue chuckled. "You have your things to do, and I have mine. Didn't we agree not to interfere with each other? Why don't you tell me where you went in the first half of March? "
Xiang Ling 'er smiled sweetly. "Where can I go? It's a place where decent girls go. If you're interested, I'll take you there next time. "
"Okay." Mei Yue said, "If you really want to know, I'll take you there next time too."
Xiang Ling 'er took a sip of the tea and didn't continue to pester her. She only said, "Sister, this tea is really good!"
Mei Yue leaned back slightly and said lazily, "It's hard to find peace in life, but there's peace in tea."
Xiang Ling 'er smiled and said, "Since you came to Qi and drank the Eight Tone Tea, your realm has changed!"
"No matter what realm I'm in, I still need you to support me." Mei Yue looked at her and said, "Sister, we're on the same side."
Xiang Ling 'er shook her head and smiled innocently. "Sister, you're serious!"
…
…
However, she said that he was an old embroidered pillow … Oh, no, Chongxuan, Uncle Mingguang.
He walked out of the Fragrance of Three Fragrances Restaurant proudly.
People said that the Fragrance of Three Fragrances Restaurant's Tian Xiang and Xin Xiang were difficult to get close to. Many high officials and nobles wanted to meet them but couldn't. However, he, Uncle Chongxuan, had easily visited them. They had a simple meeting, drank tea, listened to music, and chatted.
It could be seen that he was still as charming as before!
He bent down and was about to get into the sedan when he saw a carriage stop not far away. A noble young master in brocade clothes came down. He seemed to be visiting Miss Xiang Ling 'er.
"Cough!"
He coughed. "Ah Shu, why didn't you greet me when you saw me?"
