Chapter 263 Bloodwashing Lanruo Temple
Not long after, the officers and soldiers and constables still followed the remaining traces.
When these officers and soldiers and constables came to the vicinity of [Lanruo Temple], they found that Nie Fengyun and others were scattered. When the constables in charge of tracking squatted down and carefully investigated, they confirmed that the target they were pursuing had fled in dispersion.
Immediately, the officers and soldiers and the constables divided into three groups and acted separately.
Two of the teams followed Xiang Nie Fengyun and Nie Yi respectively. As for the other team, they gradually explored and tracked the back mountain direction of [Lanruo Temple] along the traces in the jungle.
...
...
The snow is falling and the sun is shining brightly.
The cold is mixed with warmth, and the gorgeous rainbow hangs among the mountains and valleys.
Such a strange natural scene made the officers and soldiers and constables in charge of the pursuit feel a little furious, but the emperor's order was in his arms and could not tolerate them giving up or rejecting them at all. They could only do their best to pursue and search Nie Fengyun's family.
The officers and constables who were not far from the back mountain of [Lanruo Temple] suddenly stopped, and everyone looked a little solemn.
“It smells bloody and very fresh.”
"It's human blood, and my subordinates are very confident. And if they want to reach this level of concentration, there will be at least hundreds of people who die."
"The smell of blood came from that direction. If I remember correctly, it was where the [Lan Ruo Temple] was located. But it is said that there were more than one Taoist monk in Lan Ruo Temple. How could such a disaster happen?"
"General Zhou, do you think this will be related to the traitor Nie Fengyun and others?"
"Hmph, it's impossible. The fugitive Nie Fengyun and his party are all ordinary people, how could they be so capable?"
...
The leaders discussed and discussed each other, but finally decided not to move forward rashly.
First, a small group of scouts were sent to the direction where the bloody smell came from carefully exploring and seeing what was going on.
...
...
at the same time.
In Lanruo Temple, the roots of black locust trees are slowly squirming, densely packed, like a group of snakes moving, choosing people to eat.
That mysterious and weird scene was enough to scare ordinary people.
However, at this moment, no noise from humans sounded, and no sound of chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddhas was floating. In the entire vast temple, except for the wriggling sounds of the strange black locust tree roots, it was already silent.
The Lanruo Temple, which once had a great reputation, has now become a ruined ruin.
Only the main hall remains.
Inside the temple, there were corpses of monks wearing bright yellow monk robes everywhere. The white and fat face still had a look of fear and despair. They died with their eyes closed, just like they saw something incredible terrifying demon during their lifetime.
The bright red blood spilled over the walls and the ground, and the blood flowed into a river, and the broken limbs and broken arms and human heads were almost everywhere.
Few complete corpses exist.
At this moment, the roots of the black locust trees were rooted in these broken limbs, broken arms and bones, sucking their flesh and bone marrow, and the broken three souls and seven spirits and soul fragments were not spared at all.
Everyone will refuse, swallow and absorb them all.
The evil spirit full of resentment, horror and despair gathered around the roots of these black locust trees, twisting and struggling like a living thing.
"The flesh and soul of these little bald donkeys is really delicious."
"Without the suppression of those old bald donkeys, you little bald donkeys still want to continue to suppress and save grandma, let grandma be a great charity and serve as a guardian dog for you Lanruo Temple."
"It's just a daydream..."
A faint and weird evil sound floated inside Lanruo Temple.
Some men and women do not distinguish between old and young.
After a while.
The corpses of those monks were sucked by the roots of black locust trees. There were only shriveled bones and rotten corpses in the entire temple, as if several years had passed in this short period of time.
"I've finished my snacks before the meal, it's time to have a full meal."
Soon, all the roots of black locust trees suddenly spread faster and came around the corpses of the inexplicable Taoist monks, and suddenly wrapped around them. The tip of the roots pierced into their bodies and began to suck and swallow them wildly.
Not only its flesh, bone marrow and soul fragments, but even Buddha bone relics have never been spared, and they have all become nourishing nutrients to nourish one's body.
A faint golden fluorescence flashed continuously on the surface of the black roots.
For a moment.
The sound of the leaves swaying became clearer and more obvious, as if swaying happily, and the invisible and intangible demonic aura gradually rose and permeated.
"The feeling of freedom is indeed comfortable." The strange voices of men, women, young and old were quietly echoing around Lanruo Temple, and the ancient locust tree near Nie Xiaoqian's tomb grew thicker and taller.
The lush branches and trunks are towering into the clouds, as if they have grown for thousands of years.
The roots lying on the surface of the ground were like thick giant pythons crawling on the ground, which suddenly made the back mountain of Lanruo Temple have an amazing atmosphere like a primeval forest, and the breath of life is extremely vigorous and active.
But strangely, there are no birds screaming, insects ringing, and beasts roaring.
Some roots that fell in the air trembled slightly, wanting to approach Nie Xiaoqian and Yuaner's graves and suck the fresh corpses inside, but hesitated for a long time but never really got close.
That scene seemed like instinctively being afraid of something.
"Who is this woman named Nie Xiaoqian?" The tree demon grandma hesitated for a long time, but she didn't dare to go, but that special invisible temptation made her instinctively understand that if she could directly become a demon immortal after sucking Nie Xiaoqian's life.
"It's better to find a way to swallow her in the future. Now I will eat the snacks that I took the initiative to deliver to my door."
In silence.
One after another, young locust tree seedlings broke out of the ground and grew quickly behind the group of officers and soldiers and constables, completely blocking their escape route.
The roots and vines were like bloodthirsty pythons, suddenly piercing and storming.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Help, there are monsters..."
"Escape quickly..."
...
It takes almost less than one breath.
The group of officers, soldiers and constables who followed him died, all became food for the ancient locust tree near Nie Xiaoqian's tomb.
The corpses everywhere were quickly sucked away and became shriveled and rotten ancient corpses, adding a gloomy and terrifying charm to this place, but no one saw this scene.
...
...
On the other side.
The two teams separated caught up with Nie Fengyun and Nie Yi and killed these people on the spot.
At this point, the entire Nie Mansion was destroyed, and no one was left behind.
As for the various strategic documents written by Nie Fengyun, Nie Yi was hiding in an ordinary farmer's house when he saw the opportunity.
