The years when I explored the fairyland.
Chapter 261 258: Blood Sacrifice and 'Suffering'
Chapter 261 258: Blood Sacrifice and 'Suffering' (12)
Bai Di did not rush to answer, but lowered his head and took a sip along the edge of the bowl.
The rich aroma at his mouth made him pause. After swallowing it, he took another small sip, letting the taste of the broth spread thoroughly between his lips and tongue, and he felt it carefully again.
"Good soup! Good soup! Good soup!"
This was Bai Di's evaluation. He looked up again and carefully looked at Chu Zhou and the old scholar, with a hint of excitement on his face.
After a pause, he said, "Sang Qing told me that you came to this world. I didn't believe it before, but now, I believe it about 70%?"
"Why?"
“This soup is one of the proofs!”
"How to say?"
"I am the White Emperor, and I have dedicated my life to the human race. I don't have many hobbies, except for the desire for food, which is difficult to eliminate. Therefore, I follow the example of my superiors. I have tasted all the food that can be served in this paradise, and I call myself a glutton.
But in this soup, not to mention the ingredients, there are several seasonings that I have never heard of or seen before!"
What he said was true, because although the food was made by Xiaoji, the seasoning was indeed brought in by Chu Zhou from the outside world.
Chu Zhou also put down the bowl in his hand, looked up, and said, "So what if it is? So what if it isn't?"
"If so, it means that you have the means to enter the blessed land. This has never happened since the ancient times when the earth and the sky were connected.
But this is not important. What is important is that since you can come in, you can definitely get out!"
"go out?"
The old scholar finally spoke, with a slightly confused look on his face. He stared at Baidi and asked, "You said you want to go out? Do you really want to go out?"
Bai Di answered without hesitation: "That's just a dream!"
"why?"
"what why?"
"Why do you want to go out?"
"What other reason do you need to go out?"
Although Baidi said this, his expression also showed some contemplation. After a pause, he said, "Maybe it's because life in this paradise is too hard!"
"Bitter?" The old scholar seemed to find it hard to understand.
Baidi looked at him with a calm expression, but his words were extremely heavy: "In one's lifetime, one must fight against the beast tide, fight against monsters, be careful of dangerous places, and seek food and clothing. It's like the single-plank bridge on the cliff, every step is thrilling.
Life is not easy, isn't it bitter?"
"I know what you are thinking. In the ancient times, when the Great Red Dragon decided to close the paradise, he called back a group of immortal servants.
At that time, those who could follow the immortal servant into the cave were all close to him, and they also regarded this as a great opportunity.
But the ancestors at that time would never have thought that their descendants would hate them so much and would be so eager to get out. "
This sentence contains a lot of information, especially since it involves the Great Red Dragon and the Jedi Tiantong, which are obviously unknown to anyone in the world.
However, Chu Zhou still looked at Baidi first, then at the old Confucian scholar, and suddenly laughed. His laugh was a little strange and a little mocking.
"You guys are really interesting. Those outside want to come in, and those inside want to leave. You all think the other person has the best, and your hearts are full of resentment!"
After a pause, he looked at the old scholar and asked, "It is said that the Immortal Slaughtering Palace was built out of hatred. I am very curious. If they knew what would happen after entering this cave, would they still want to come in?"
The old scholar actually thought about it and said, "I guess their faith will collapse! I am actually looking forward to their expressions when they know the truth."
"hehe!"
Chu Zhou smiled lightly, then turned his head to look at Baidi, the smile on his face gradually faded: "I have a question, I wonder if His Majesty Baidi can answer it truthfully?"
"You ask?"
"I'm curious, what are you doing?"
"Who do you mean by 'you'?"
“Of course it’s your Baidi City and Black Wind Mountain, or maybe you should also add Donghuang City, Yanbo Mountain, and even the most mysterious Canglong Mountain.
What is the purpose of all the wars and killings you have been waging in this region?"
Chu Zhou's voice became sharper and even questioning: "I was confused before, if you want to enter the Spring and Autumn Palace, then go ahead.
Why don't you get some experts and go together? When the Spring and Autumn Palace opens its gates, you can rush in and grab the elixir you want, right?
Even if there is a conflict, it will only happen in the Spring and Autumn Palace. Why would we need to gather so many troops outside the city to fight and kill?"
"So, this is clearly a blood sacrifice! You used the blood and souls of countless people to pollute the earth veins, pry open a crack in the Spring and Autumn Palace's mountain protection formation, and then enter it.
I said that, am I right? "
Chu Zhou suddenly became angry, and his powerful blood and energy mixed with the power of his soul, even shaking the surroundings like water waves, causing constant turbulence.
Xiao Ji was even frightened by Chu Zhou. She was trembling all over and her eyes were filled with fear. The old scholar pulled her closer and comforted her softly.
Only Bai Di's expression did not change at all, and he even looked calm. He looked at Xiao Ji and said, "This little guy is the survivor of Shanghe Village, right?
There are 58 households in the village, with a total of 232 people, including men, women, old and young. Now, she is the only one left!
In addition, there are the Red Flame Army I sent, which has left behind 92 soldiers who dared to fight to the death! "
"Didn't I know that sending them would lead to losses? Didn't I know that Shanghe Village would be wiped out? Didn't I know that this was a blood sacrifice?"
"I know everything, but what do you want me to do?"
"If I do nothing, those demon mountains will also send out their half-demon armies to invade our human territory, plunder the population, kill them, and sacrifice blood to the earth. It's better for us to fight it out, to the death, and to each his own.
At least this way, those monsters will also suffer casualties, and those half-monsters will be contained. If we kill them too hard, they will also suffer serious injuries, instead of just a one-sided loss on our part."
“Besides, in the Spring and Autumn Palace, there are two kinds of elixirs that we desire the most.
One of them is called Shengsheng Zaohua Pill, which is used to prolong life. Getting one pill can extend one's life by a hundred years. Although the effect will decrease if you take too much, it is still a rare elixir.
In the past, all the harvests were eaten by us to prolong our lives and guard the world.
The second one is the fourth-turn barrier-breaking pill, which is used to break through the realm. When it reaches the fourth turn, masters who have reached the pinnacle of martial arts can make another breakthrough, cleanse their marrow and replace their blood, restore vitality, and thus enter our realm.
Of course, this fourth-level barrier-breaking pill only has the chance to break through, and only when it reaches the fifth level can it be absolutely effective. And as long as my human race has one more king, we can compete with the demon mountain."
"Over the years, the times when our human race was not afraid of the demon race were always the times when the third king was born. Unfortunately, they never had a stable inheritance."
Baidi looked at Chu Zhou and suddenly smiled. His smile was very gentle, even full of kindness.
"I am actually very happy. I am very happy about your questioning. I am also very happy that you can see the sacrifices of the human race. But this is the current living situation of our human race in this paradise."
Seeing Chu Zhou was silent and seemed unconvinced, he continued, "'Baidi' is a title. Anyone who sits in my position will be called His Majesty Baidi.
My original surname is Luo, and my given name is Changling. Because of my extraordinary talent, I was accepted as a disciple by the previous generation of the White Emperor. My family is also a martial arts family, and I have some strength.
However, my parents died in a beast tide. They led 300 soldiers and guarded the people of an area for three days and three nights.
When I arrived, both my parents had been killed and all three hundred soldiers were dead or wounded. Only in the cellar were there hundreds of children hiding. There were only children, no elderly people or women.
I have three brothers, and I am the youngest. I have two older brothers. Although their talents are not as good as mine, they are both quite capable.
In order to help me consolidate my power, they all joined the army. One of them died at the hands of a monster, was torn into pieces by five horses, and his head was sent back.
That was the work of Black Wind Mountain. I wanted to go to Black Wind Mountain and have a fight with the Black Wind King, but in the end, it ended in nothing.
There was another one who died in a sudden dangerous place. I was supposed to go there, but I was delayed by some things, so he went out for me and never came back.
I became the White Emperor, but I couldn't marry the woman I loved, so I had to marry someone else. But she was also very proud and gave birth to a son and a daughter for me, but they didn't grow up and died in an assassination by a monster. "
"So, I, His Majesty the White Emperor, the ruler of half of the human race, am actually a loner!"
It is hard to imagine the ease and calmness with which Baidi said these words, as well as the deep sadness hidden within.
At this moment, Chu Zhou looked at him with a somewhat frozen expression.
If what the other party said was true, if that kind of sacrifice was not limited to mortals, but was applied equally to everyone, then it would be a bit untenable to blame them for knowing about the blood sacrifice and not stopping it.
Furthermore, the living environment of the human race in the paradise is far more difficult than he had imagined!
Chu Zhou was an outsider after all. He had spent most of his time in the Forest of Ten Thousand Trees in this secret realm, and he didn’t know much about the actual situation of the human race.
But under Baidi's words, that kind of "suffering" seemed to be materialized.
The atmosphere of silence spread among the crowd, and it seemed that no one wanted to talk. After a while, Chu Zhou broke the silence: "Your Majesty Baidi, I still have the same question, why are you here?"
"Of course, we need to meet the outsiders that Sang Qing mentioned, confirm your identities, and try to find a way out!"
"We have seen the person. Whether his identity has been confirmed or not is up to you to decide. As for the way out?"
Chu Zhou paused and continued, "The gate to heaven is open, so theoretically one can go in and out without any hindrance, but this paradise is different.
I am also looking for a way out, Your Majesty Baidi can wait for a while.
I can make you a promise that if I really find a way out, I will help you."
"Is this true?"
"You can choose not to believe me, or we can have a fight here. You can measure my strength, and I can see how strong the top masters in this world are."
Bai Di looked into Chu Zhou's eyes, and finally shook his head and said, "My heart tells me that this is not a good choice.
But, since you are helping us so much, I want to know, what do I need to give in return? "
"You don't need anything. Just think of it as me being kind."
After a pause, Chu Zhou looked at Xiao Ji again and said, "Just think of it as me giving you this benefit for Xiao Ji's sake."
The old scholar suddenly said, "If you are really worried, then give us some useful information, okay?"
"What do you want to know?"
"For example, what is the situation of the Red Dragon Immortal and his servant you mentioned? For example, the ancient history of the blessed land, and the changes in the world. For example, the situation of the human and demon races, and the strength of those kings? What are they good at?"
The old scholar said: "We come here for our own purpose, which we need to accomplish by ourselves, but we want to know more useful information in order to successfully complete our goal.
This is the only way you can help us.”
"So where do you want to start?"
"Let's start from the end of the ancient times. I really want to know why that Supreme Immortal activated the Jedi Tiantong when nothing happened."
"You want to know this?!"
Bai Di narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was recalling something. After a moment, he spoke again, his voice carrying a sense of distance that came from the passage of time.
"According to the ancient books I read in Baidi City, all this started with the Red Dragon Immortal. He should be the Supreme Immortal you are talking about."
"In a sense, in this world, he is worthy of the title of 'Supreme Immortal'."
"Of course, if you let the Red Dragon Immortal choose himself, he probably wouldn't dare to give himself such a title. After all, he is just a pioneer sent here by a more powerful force!"
The editor gave me a small recommendation and asked me to update more, at least twice today!
