There's a Madman Sharpening His Knife at Night

Lu Hu touched the three corpses and found that these three people were surprisingly poor.

The total amount of money the three of them had was only twelve taels!

The one hundred and fifty taels of silver that Lu Hu got was not all of the man who was also a martial arts practitioner and who was involved with the Senluo Society and the government.

Comparing the two sides, I have to say that even in ancient times, platforms were still very important.

I don’t know what’s so good about following this afterlife cult, it makes people poor and unruly!

As for the yellow talisman that can make people go berserk, he also found one on each of the other two.

Under the bright moonlight in the sky, he carefully examined the yellow talisman.

I saw a lot of messy and powerful lines painted on it with red, maybe cinnabar-like paint, which were no different from the common talismans in previous lives.

Lu Hu suddenly put the yellow talisman in front of his nose and smelled it vigorously.

On it, he smelled a familiar fishy smell, which was very unique.

He searched in his mind and found that part of the source of the fishy smell was similar to the earthy smell in the medicinal materials for his medicinal bath, and the rest was similar to the smell of the big tiger heart he had eaten in the mountains.

"The incantation in his mouth and the yellow talisman are all nonsense. They are just tricks. The main thing is the red paint. I am afraid that some kind of elixir was used, ground into powder and added with water, and then painted on."

Lu Hu had never believed in the so-called ancestor's blessing before.

The reason is also very simple. If you are so awesome, you can secretly start a cult, directly change the dynasty, and become the master of your own country.

Is it because you don’t like it if you don’t do it?

Now it seems that it is just some tricks.

But couldn't these three people have discovered this clumsy little trick and been brainwashed into such a fanatical state? No brains at all?

Lu Hu shook his head. He couldn't make a conclusion yet, as for the three corpses in the bamboo basket.

The rot was so disgusting that Lu Hu didn't even want to look at it, let alone let him go over and look for something on the corpse.

Anyway, the village below is a stronghold of the Rebirth Cult, and you should be able to find the answer you want there.

He looked at the short knife in his hand. In the fierce collision just now, the blade had broken into several holes and became jagged. It could no longer be used.

He threw it casually and found the short knife that he had kicked away before, and it was stuck in a big tree.

After pulling it off, he picked up a bamboo hat from the ground and put it on before heading towards the village.

The road to the village has been submerged in weeds. If it hadn't been for the three people who led the way, this dilapidated village located in the mountains would have been difficult to find.

Lu Hu walked halfway along the mountain road and entered the dense forest beside the road.

No matter what, a stronghold must have people guarding it outside.

Lu Hu just wanted to sneak in quietly this time to see what these guys were doing by sneaking corpses out of the city and being so evil.

As for other thoughts, he doesn't have them at all, and he won't do them, and he can't do them.

Sure enough, just as Lu Hu approached the village from the dense forest, he heard a subtle breathing sound on his left side.

Following the sound, I saw a dark shadow hidden in the canopy of a big tree on the right side of the mountain road.

"The guard should not be on guard against passers-by who stray into this place. After all, it is in the wilderness and it is late at night, so no one can come here. The guard is mainly on the tail following the believers.

Those three people may not be aware of their existence. They are passing by normally. If someone is following them, they will be exposed immediately! "

Lu Hu couldn't help but feel glad that he took action to kill three people in advance after knowing the destination. If he continued to follow, he would not be able to pass this section.

As he got closer and closer to the village, his speed became slower and slower, his body lowered, and his steps were as gentle as possible.

After finally walking out of the forest, there was a section of small fence from the village in front of them, surrounding a piece of grassy land.

He looked into the village.

I saw a fire flickering in the center of the village, and I also heard some subtle sounds, which were too far away to hear carefully.

After he made sure that there were no so-called hidden sentries around, he emerged from the woods, crossed the fence, walked through the wasteland, climbed over a low earth wall, and entered a long-abandoned courtyard.

The courtyard is overgrown with weeds. A section of the earthen wall in front has fallen to the ground, exposing a gap. The dark dead trees in the corner are covered with fallen leaves. There are broken tiles all over the ground, and gray-black moss covers the broken tiles. It seems to have a layer of black hair on it.

As for the house on the right, the wooden door was broken and the wooden windows were gone, leaving only two dark window frames staring at him.

It happened that a strong wind blew by, and there was a whining sound inside the house, like the sound of a ghost crying, which was eerie and extremely penetrating.

Lu Hu carefully avoided the broken tiles on the ground and entered the next courtyard through the gap in the earth wall. The conditions of these courtyards were similar, except that there was an extra white bone among the grass.

Lu Hu climbed all the way over the wall and approached the center of the village from the courtyards.

At the same time, the sound reaching my ears became louder and clearer.

"The incense in the furnace is suddenly hot, and the Dharma Realm is smoked. Ancestor Mi Le will hear it from afar. The clouds of auspiciousness will follow. Sincerity will lead to Yin.

May you be reborn in blissful life, and cross the world with compassion.

Innumerable people gathered in the Yoma Heavenly Palace, receiving the power of the Dharma, and looked around the ten directions and spoke praises."

Everyone chanted, and the sound of chanting hummed loudly in front of them. Coupled with the whining sound of the village blown by the strong wind, Lu Hu felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

At the same time, he also smelled an extremely strong smell of corpses and blood.

Feeling that the distance was almost there, he climbed onto the roof from the earthen wall, lay on the sloping eaves, stuck his head out from the ridge, and looked forward.

I saw a huge bonfire burning in the center of the village, and a group of dead believers in white robes were sitting in a semicircle, chanting together.

Seven feet away behind these people, there is a group of white-robed cultists standing with knives.

At this time, people continued to enter this place from the village road, carrying bamboo baskets on their backs. After arriving, white-robed believers came up to them, took away the bamboo baskets, and also gave them a white robe.

After they put it on, they joined the team of chanting sutras.

After the bonfire, there is the village ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall is made of bricks and is well preserved. The newly painted red door is extremely bright red under the light of the bonfire. It opens to the outside, and there are two rows of white-clad believers sitting cross-legged inside.

Going further inside, you can see that in the ancestral hall, the place where the ancestors' tablets were originally enshrined has been replaced by an invisible, dark statue of a god, and the statue is also covered with a white robe.

It must be the deceased ancestor of Mai Le whom they enshrine.

In front of the statue is a huge three-legged copper tripod, with flames burning underneath, as if something is being tempered.

"Religious sacrificial rituals of the afterlife cult?"
