Mutated Tao Chapter 232: Lion dance (added to the leader Li Chou!)
When he discovered that these dead sheep might have become human beings, he was completely shocked.
But after the shock, a new question appeared in Li Huowang's mind.
"What do they worship? Who are they?" Li Huowang kept thinking about these two questions.
It is very necessary for him to clarify these two issues now. If this kind of cult is still deep in the cave, then he has to consider whether he should continue to take risks.
It's worth risking to black Tai Sui, but it's not worth dying for.
After learning about this, Sun Baolu said: "Brother Li, this is not right, you look at the way the heads of sheep, cattle and pigs are placed on the plate, they are placed upside down, these offerings are for these dead from the sheep."
"Aren't they worshiping... gods? They are worshiping these sheep?"
Li Huowang, who was frowning, stood beside him, constantly switching back and forth between the tribute and the dead sheep.
"Is it... for the sheep god? Old Sun, do you have a sheep **** here in Qingqiu?" Gou Wa asked from the side.
"Sheep are animals, why do we worship animals as gods? Qingqiu has no such rules."
After hearing this, Li Huowang's mind quickly presented the various forces he had experienced.
The obscene and evil Buddha of Zhengde Temple, the Suffering Buddha of Jingjiao, and the rotten Bodhisattva of Anci Temple.
Suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and the words in his heart couldn't help blurting out.
"I understand, they are not worshiping these sheep, these sheep are just the props they need to realize the appearance of the objects of worship, they sacrifice to death, they are worshiping death itself!"
"What?" The others obviously didn't understand what Li Huowang wanted to say.
They don't understand, but Li Huowang does.
He stood on the giant cauldron, looking down at the sheep corpses below again.
There are certain beings who have driven hundreds of people here, and then some people have turned them into sheep.
Some of the unsuccessful ones were thrown aside, while the successful ones were gathered together and killed at the same time.
The moment these sheep died was the beginning of their worship. They did not worship the sheep, but worshiped the death of the sheep itself.
As the details were sorted out, he felt that at this moment he fully understood the behavioral logic of these existences back then.
The underground of Qingqiu is not only filled with messy evil spirits, but also a religion that worships death!
What's even more outrageous is that Li Huowang doesn't even know whether the people who believe in this religion are people or something else.
Judging from previous experience, since they worship death, these things must have some kind of ability about death. Guan is just a simple association. Li Huowang knows how dangerous the other party is.
After fully understanding what this meant, Li Huowang became nervous, and he looked towards the other people around him.
"Go, you go out first, this is not a problem of evil spirits!"
That's all, Li Huowang led the others outside, but just a few steps away. "Da~da~da~" The wood knocking sound suddenly sounded.
Li Huowang, who was startled, quickly grasped the hilt of his sword and looked around the darkness.
"Da~da~da~" The sound of wood beating has a certain melody and echoes from all directions, and the overlapping echoes make Li Huowang have no idea where it is coming from.
Unable to tell where the enemy is, Li Huowang didn't dare to charge rashly, for fear of bumping into the enemy.
Li Huowang clenched his teeth, his ears kept moving slightly, and he tried his best to distinguish the direction of the sound by himself.
As the sound got closer, Li Huowang's keen sense of hearing finally came in handy, and he recognized the direction of the sound.
"Found it! It's...on it!!"
Li Huowang quickly raised his head, looked at the dark top, quickly raised the fluorite in his hand and threw it directly towards the direction of the sound.
As the fluorite was firmly stuck between the top rock cracks. In an instant, a face larger than the round table suddenly appeared in front of them with the help of green light.
It was a man's face with extremely flat features. His face was pale, his mouth was wide open, and his two red and white pupils the size of lampholes were fixedly staring at Li Huowang below.
There are no limbs and torso behind the man's neck, only a long body like a caterpillar, and the white long body is supported by big and small hands.
Li Huowang also found the source of the uninterrupted wood knocking sound, which came from his long body.
His weird voice made Li Huowang immediately recall what he saw at Women's Mountain.
"This is the lion dance of the Lion Dance Palace? No, it is not a lion dance! There is no lion dance with a flat dead face instead of a lion head?!"
"Is it them? Did they make the grand sacrificial ceremony just now? Could it be that they are not the lion dance palace, but the death palace?"
However, no matter what it is, Li Huowang can't pretend that he can't see anything when he sees the big thing hanging on the top of the rock, so he decides to touch it first and try it out.
After deliberating for a while, Li Huowang slowly said, "Masters of the Lion Dance Palace, please be polite in Xiaxuanyang. This time, passing by the treasure land will not offend anyone. It is true and there is a reason for it."
In the blink of an eye, Li Huowang immediately found a new reason.
"I need a Hei Tai Sui as a medicine to make alchemy. I heard that there is a precious treasure, so I come to look for it. If the masters can help me find one, I will be very grateful!"
Don't worry about thanking you later, Li Huowang said he's already here anyway, and the next step is to see how the other party responds.
Unexpectedly, the lion dance was hanging upside down on the top all the time, without saying or expressing anything, just like a stone lion hanging there.
"What does the other party mean? Is it because the lion dancers are all from Qingqiu, so they don't understand what I'm saying?"
Thinking of this, Li Huowang turned his head and told Sun Baolu to speak to him again in Qingqiu dialect.
Just as Sun Baolu was speaking, Li Huowang's whole body tensed up suddenly, feeling the danger, he subconsciously wanted to pounce to the left.
But it was too late to move at this time, as soon as he felt the pain in his back, his body was knocked out by a huge force.
"I was attacked, the lion on top is the bait!"
After thinking about all this, Li Huowang slammed into the darkness. When he got up again and touched his body with his hands, he found that he hadn't suffered any injuries.
"What... what's going on?" Li Huowang touched his back next time, and when his fingers touched the "Daqianlu" under his skin, he realized that it was "Daqianlu" that blocked him just now. for a moment.
Although the process of embedding "Daqianlu" under the skin was very painful, but now I have an extra layer of thick armor on my back.
Li Huowang was overjoyed but quickly disappeared. He didn't care about it now. He leaned on crutches and rushed towards that side.
He saw the thing that was attacking him, it was also another lion dancer, the only difference from the lion dancer on the ceiling was its flat face, it was a woman with black eyes and blood red mouth!
