Several groups of people have come to Tian Qi's house and searched repeatedly, but no clues were found.
Lu Ren entered the backyard and looked around, trying to find a device similar to a secret door or a secret room mechanism.
However, there was nothing.
He calmed down and scanned the entire backyard again, not missing any details.
Soon, he made a new discovery.
There is a dry well in the middle of the yard.
From the hole in the courtyard wall to the dry well, there are obvious signs of dragging on the ground for more than ten meters.
Although it was covered up artificially later, it was not done carefully enough, leaving some clues.
Lu Ren also paid attention to this dry well at the beginning. The bottom of the well was dark and there was no rope or ladder to go up and down, so he did not doubt it too much.
Now, he stood above the wellhead and looked down again. His sharp eyes pierced through the darkness and finally caught a ray of light at the bottom of the well.
It was shining from the inside of the well wall.
"It turns out that this dry well actually has a different world!"
Lu Ren jumped in without any hesitation.
When he reached the bottom of the well, as he expected, a narrow passage was dug out on the side.
The faint light he saw before came from the candlelight in the passage.
Lu Ren walked into the passage, and after about ten meters, the space suddenly became clear.
Who would have thought that Tian Qi, a private school teacher, would dig out such a large underground palace at the bottom of his own well.
It seems that he did not do it on a whim, but had been planning for a long time!
Right in front of him, there stood a huge lotus platform, exactly the same as what he saw on the cover of the ancient book. There were nine petals on each of the inner and outer layers.
The boys were outside and the girls were inside, exactly eighteen people.
At this moment, the children were all in a coma, lying in the middle of the petals, with a thin tube inserted in their wrists, and the bright red blood slowly dripped from the mouth of the tube.
There was a small ditch under the mouth of the tube, extending all the way to the cushion in the center of the lotus platform.
Eighteen ditches were arranged in a staggered manner, mixing the blood of all the people together.
If you look down from above, you will find that the routes through which the blood flows are combined into a strange pattern.
It is like a symbol or a totem, exuding an evil and terrifying aura.
On the futon, Tian Qi was meditating.
In front of him was an ancient bronze lamp, the light was dim and swaying, and it exuded a strange fragrance.
Unlike usual, Tian Qi did not wear the gray gown, but changed into a colorful robe.
Lu Ren guessed that this should be the uniform issued by Changshengmen to its disciples.
He walked up to the lotus platform expressionlessly, and found Yuanbao who was in a coma among the many children.
Yuanbao's face was a little pale, but his breathing was still smooth, and he looked fine.
Lu Ren stepped forward to pull out the blood-guiding tube, and then tore off a piece of cloth to bandage his wrist.
At this time, a hoarse voice came from behind
"I didn't expect you to find this place."
Tian Qi's robe was as red as blood, his black hair was flying, and there was madness in his eyes.
Lu Ren looked at him calmly:"I didn't expect you to go astray to this extent."
"Nonsense!" Tian Qi roared,"I am a disciple of Changsheng, practicing the secret method of supreme longevity, how can I be said to have gone astray?"
"It seems that the brainwashing ability of this Changsheng Sect is really extraordinary"
"Lu Ren, I will not argue with you about what happened today, you can go now.
Tian Qi waved his hand and said,"If you dare to mess up my plan of ascending again, I will not cherish our friendship."
"Interesting." Lu Ren's mouth twitched, and he sneered:"Although you still have a trace of humanity, I don't intend to let you go."
Using eighteen children as sacrifices, Tian Qi's actions were more cold-blooded and cruel than many demons.
"Humph, you are stubborn and you are courting death!"
A strong murderous intent erupted from Tian Qi's body.
Lu Ren frowned, a little shocked in his heart.
He didn't expect that Tian Qi, a gentle teacher in everyone's eyes, would have such a brutal side.
No, his own aura is still just that of a mortal.
The terrible murderous intent did not come from Tian Qi, but from something on him.
Tian Qi took out a black and murderous token from under his robe.
Tian Qi stood on the mat with bloodshot eyes, like a madman.
He held the token high and muttered something.
On the lotus platform, the children's blood began to be absorbed into the token.
The totem constructed by the blood line slowly rose into the air, blooming a dazzling red light, covering Tian Qi and even the entire lotus platform.
A feeling of depression emerged in Lu Ren's heart.
He felt his breathing was dull and his movements became slow.
Lu Ren stared at the huge The huge blood-colored totem suddenly realized something.
This lotus platform is not only an altar for sacrifice, but also a formation!
Lu Ren didn't know if Tian Qi had any other means. For the sake of safety, he had to strike first.
He took out a dagger and stabbed Tian Qi.
The latter opened his eyes suddenly, and a fierce black gas rose from the token, wrapping him tightly.
As soon as Lu Ren's dagger touched the black gas, it was instantly swallowed up.
The palm-long blade melted into a pool of molten iron and fell to the ground.
Lu Ren wanted to let go, but found that the black gas would drag his arm in together.
It is not difficult to imagine what kind of end will happen to his body once it is swallowed by the black gas that can easily corrode even steel.
He freed his left hand, pressed down his uncontrolled right wrist, and pulled it back desperately.
The process was deadlocked for a moment, and Tian Qi seemed to have lost his patience, holding the token and taking the initiative to walk forward.
""Don't struggle in vain, just be my sacrifice on the road to ascension!"
Tian Qi laughed crazily and pressed forward step by step.
Seeing that the black air around him was about to swallow Lu Ren.
Suddenly, a fist of light flashed before his eyes.
Tian Qi lowered his head in horror and found that Lu Ren's fist was wrapped with a layer of faint white light, which passed through the protective black air intact and directly pierced his chest.
This was Lu Ren using the Xuanling Baolu to gather all the spiritual energy of the world that he could mobilize on his left arm, so that he could ignore the erosion of the black air for a short period of time.
"you......How can it be........"
Tian Qi's guide once told him that the black aura protecting the token was so terrifying that even martial artists at the initial stage of perception or demons at the transformation stage would die from it.
Why was Lu Ren safe and sound? What about that white halo?
Lu Ren was not interested in answering questions.
After a successful strike, he took the token and broke it in half with a flick of his hands.
The token was destroyed, and the black aura dissipated.
At the same time, the blood-colored totem above the lotus platform dimmed and turned into a blood mist that floated down.
Lu Ren swung another punch and made a huge dent in Tian Qi's face.
"Tell me, what kind of power is Changshengmen, and how are you connected?"
Tian Qi spat out a mouthful of black blood, staring at Lu Ren with ferocious eyes, and a feeling of unwillingness emerged in his blood-stained eyes.
"I am a disciple of Changsheng! You can't kill me, hahaha!"
He laughed wildly, and with his last bit of strength, he picked up the bronze lamp that was about to go out on the ground.
""Disciple Tian Qi, please grant me immortality!"
He roared and threw the bronze lamp towards the blood trough on the lotus platform.
In an instant, flames broke out!
Lu Ren looked at the hellish scene in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
The blood was ignited!
Seeing the flames sweeping towards the children on the outer petals, Lu Ren didn't care about much and took them away from the lotus platform as quickly as possible.
Fortunately, they were just unconscious because of taking drugs and losing too much blood, so their lives were not in danger.
It was also considered that I discovered it early. If it was a few hours later, even if the blood had not dried up, the person would have stopped breathing.
After safely transferring the children to the cave entrance, Lu Ren turned around and found that Tian Qi was bathing in fire and dancing wildly on the lotus platform.
In his mouth, he kept repeating the same sentence
"Disciple Tian Qi, please grant me immortality!"
"Disciple Tian Qi, please grant me immortality!"........
His voice became weaker and weaker, and his movements became lighter and lighter.
Until the sea of fire completely engulfed him.
The scorching heat wave rushed towards the cave entrance.
Lu Ren secretly said that it was not good, his mind raced, and he used the Shaking Mountain Fist to collapse the narrow entrance of the passage.
The fallen earth and rocks blocked the passage and blocked the fire in the underground palace.
Without any delay, Lu Ren held a child in each arm, relied on the wall of the well for support, and instantly jumped out of the dry well and returned to the backyard of Tian Qi's house.
After nine trips back and forth, all eighteen children were rescued.
He called the nearby residents to help, either carrying or hugging them.���They used a cart to take all the children to the town's clinic for treatment.
After everything was arranged, Lu Ren finally sat down on the stone steps at the door and breathed a sigh of relief.
Not long after, Liao Jian, Yang Lie and others came after hearing the news.
""Lu Ren, are you okay?" Yang Bin asked with concern.
Lu Ren looked up and smiled:"You always say this every time we meet, right?"
"........Who told you to act alone every time? I don't have the chance to take risks even if I want to."
"I'm fine, just a little tired, I just need to rest for a while."
This was said to both Yang Bin and Liao Jian.
After learning that Lu Ren was not injured, Liao Jian led his men into the backyard and prepared to go down the well to check the scene.
Unexpectedly, Lu Ren had already filled up the dry well.
"Why did you take the initiative?" Liao Jian came out and asked
"Those things at the bottom of the well are too weird, and they involve a lot of people. The fewer people who are exposed to them, the better."
This is the truth.
Tian Qi refused to explain the origin of the Changsheng Sect before he died.
If the people in the sect kept in touch with him, once they found out that Tian Qi was killed, they might come to retaliate.
Tian Qi was just a teacher, and after he got the token, he almost made Lu Ren fall.
If it were Liao Jian and others, they would probably have been turned into a ball of pus by now.
Just think about it, how could the Changsheng Sect behind this token be just an ordinary martial arts sect?
It is enough for him to keep the inside story to himself, and there is no need to let everyone else take the risk.
After all, he killed the person.
"This is just nonsense! Lu Ren, you are too self-righteous!"Liao Jian angrily accused, and then left Tian Qi's house with a stern face.
He was not angry about Lu Ren filling the well without permission, but Lu Ren's character of keeping everything in his heart and bearing it silently.
If he continued like this, if he knew the truth about the murder of Lu Chuan and his wife, he might go alone with a knife for revenge like today.
This was the scene Liao Jian least wanted to see.
