Chapter 248 Is the meat delicious?
Chu Xinglan held Tuanzi in his arms and walked forward cautiously.
He had already released his spiritual sense to explore the road. There were no forks in the road in this cave, but it was winding inside and he would often come across sudden corners while walking.
And according to him, although the cave was not very visible, it was always going lower.
Because there was already some distance away from the cave entrance, there was no light at all in the cave. The only light was from that small ball of spiritual fire, but it didn't shine very far.
Except for the beginning at the cave entrance, Chu Xinglan and Tuanzi tacitly agreed not to make any sound. For a while, the only sounds in the cave were faint breathing and light footsteps.
After he turned another corner, he suddenly heard faint noise and sounds of fighting in the front, mixed with screams.
Chu Xinglan and Tuanzi looked at each other, quickened their pace, and quickly rushed towards the direction where the sound came from.
……
Deep inside the cave, not far from the open space where dozens of people were.
As soon as the two sides met, a fierce battle broke out.
On one side, there were dozens of people led by disciples from Cangqiong Mountain and Hanshan Temple. They were determined to fight to the death and their attacks were all killing moves.
The other side only had six people. Judging from the clothes they wore, they were not from the same sect, but unlike the embarrassment of the other side, each of them had a ruddy complexion and abundant spiritual energy.
After being ambushed, he reacted quickly and began to fight back.
Because this passage was not wide, the six people directly blocked the entire passage.
For a moment, he was able to attack or defend. In addition, he had abundant spiritual power and his physical injuries had almost recovered, so he could handle the situation with ease.
What's more, because of the terrain, they were only facing a few people and didn't even think about retreating.
On the contrary, the other side was constrained everywhere. Not only could they not play to their advantage of having more people, but they were also very prone to accidental injuries.
The moment the weapons came into close contact, a lot of curses were heard from behind.
Several disciples from Cangqiong Mountain and Hanshan Temple felt a lot of pressure after those people came to their senses, not to mention that there were people behind them, so they didn't even have room to maneuver.
The scene suddenly became chaotic. As injuries appeared on people's bodies, this small passage was gradually filled with the smell of blood, adding a layer of gloom to everyone's hearts.
A huge burst of spiritual power burst out, and a small space suddenly appeared in front of the six people.
Opposite them, several disciples at the front were all holding their chests and gasping for breath. The severe pain made their faces even paler.
Cui Tao, the leader of the six, patted the wrinkles on his body, sneered, and looked down at the people opposite him. Finally, his eyes fell on the disciple from Cangqiong Mountain who had been at the forefront.
"Xu Rui, have you finally been unable to resist and want to enforce justice?"
"But, don't you think too highly of yourself and the mob behind you?"
Hearing this, Xu Rui supported himself with his sword, slowly straightened his back, and wanted to say something, but a series of coughs broke out of his throat, making his face turn blue-gray.
Cui Tao smiled sarcastically and raised the sword in his hand to press against his chest. With just a little force, the sword would pierce through his heart.
This made the faces of the people around Xu Rui change. Just when they were about to step forward, they were forced back by the other five people.
One of them had a cut on his shoulder, and blood was trickling out, making his face look even uglier.
"Brother Cui, why waste time talking to them? Since they don't appreciate it, just kill them directly."
Then he looked at the group of guys who were huddled together with timid looks on their faces.
"Brother Cui was kind-hearted and spared your lives. But now it seems that you are really a bunch of ungrateful people."
Xu Rui couldn't help but find it funny that there were only six people on the opposite side, but they could show off in front of dozens of people. He actually laughed out loud.
But that laughter always sounded sad and desperate.
Perhaps because he felt his laughter was too harsh, Cui Tao frowned and moved the sword in his hand forward an inch, and Xu Rui's chest was immediately stained with blood.
However, he seemed not to feel it. He looked directly at Cui Tao in front of him and spoke with a smile.
"Kindhearted? Haha, you let us live on, aren't you just using us as food reserves?"
"Is the meat of my fellow disciples delicious? Is their blood tasty?"
After Xu Rui said it so bluntly, Cui Tao and the others' faces turned very ugly.
When they were imprisoned here, they had no hope at all and all their cultivation resources were taken away.
And I don’t know if it’s because of the restrictions set by the man in black robe, the spiritual energy in this cave is very thin.
This resulted in them being unable to heal their wounds and they could only wait to die. No one wanted to die, let alone Cui Tao.
So when his good senior brother from the same school once again used him as a punching bag and beat him up, he stabbed his senior brother in the heart with a sword.
When the warm blood splashed on his lips and he licked it subconsciously, everything seemed to be out of control.
When he came to his senses, one of his senior brother's arms was already a bloody mess, and everyone else was looking at him in horror.
Afterwards, several of his fellow disciples wanted to kill him to avenge their good brother, and then they all turned into corpses.
Perhaps it was his ferocity that frightened those people, or perhaps most people didn't want to meddle in other people's business, and then they watched Cui Tao eat his good senior brother bite by bite.
There were more than a hundred of them in total, how could he be the only one who wanted to survive?
So five more people chose to follow him, and all they asked for was to have some of his meat.
Cui Tao readily agreed, and even felt that it would make him happier if his good senior brother could be shared with others.
After all, they are monks, and flesh and blood are good things. Their injuries recovered quickly and they became the strongest among the crowd.
Even though they were disciples of the three major sects and were high and mighty, they could only watch helplessly and dared not say a word.
After Cui Tao and his companions had eaten and drunk their fill, they left the bloody skeletons there.
Then they walked out of the open space that could no longer accommodate them.
Cui Tao thought about the scene at that time, and then looked at the somewhat similar scene in front of him now, and suddenly burst into laughter.
"Xu Rui, at this point, why are you still pretending to be a righteous and upright gentleman?"
"Back then, none of you dared to fart."
"Those people wanted to kill me first. I was just seeking revenge. I did nothing wrong."
"As for eating them, it's just a waste recycling. People can still be useful after death. They should be happy."
His crazy-like speech made Xu Rui and the others feel a chill in their hearts, and a chill ran up their spines.
What made them even more disheartened was that a scream suddenly came from behind the crowd.
