After the ascension failed, I picked up the protagonist's golden finger

Sure enough, as soon as Shen Shubai walked under the mulberry tree, Yan Ye opened the door and rushed in.

"Elder..."

After shouting, he didn't know what to say next, but he did it anyway, it seemed that only in this way could he feel a little more at ease.

A group of people followed him one after another. They were all disciples of Xuan Mingzong. They probably met on the way here. When they saw Shen Shubai and Kun Daozi, they seemed to have found their backbone. Many people's eyes were a little red .

Shen Shubai counted and it was exactly twenty.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that everyone felt a little heavy, and many of them looked haggard, as if they hadn't slept all night, Shen Shubai didn't know how to comfort them.

"People safe is good."

"What's the matter, let's talk while walking."

This time, Shen Shubai walked at the front of the team. He wanted to visit Li's house, and he also wanted to confess something to them.

That's right, Shen Shubai didn't intend to hide their current situation. The puppet had already played its role last night, that is, to cover Kun Daozi and move rescuers.

Xiao Wu stayed beside Shen Shubai very quietly, just now when Shen Shubai asked him if he had been to the altar yesterday, he shook his head in confusion, as if he didn't even know what the altar was.

This made Shen Shubai even more suspicious of the identity of the black figure he saw yesterday.

"Last night, what happened?"

A disciple asked, his voice a little timid.

Yan Ye already stepped out of the door with half of his feet last night. Fortunately, Shen Shubai's firework reminded him, and now thinking about it, he feels cold all over his body.

Even if he didn't read it, Shen Shubai knew that they were all waiting for his answer, but instead of answering the question, he asked.

"Did you all hear my voice last night?"

"Yes."

same answer.

The air was quiet for a while, and while they looked at each other, they felt even more disturbed.

Shen Shubai was not surprised by this result.

"I believe you can also sense that something is wrong this time."

Shen Shubai said straight to the point: "Unfortunately, I have to tell you one thing. There are indeed some problems in this experience."

"Still a bad question."

Even Yan Ye, who was participating in the training for the first time, could realize that something was wrong, let alone the others, but guesses are guesswork, when these words really came out of Shen Shubai's mouth, they still couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

Seeing their expressions, Shen Shubai sighed and said, "At the same time, there is good news and bad news."

Shen Shubai didn't care which news to listen to first, he said directly: "The good news is that someone has sent rescuers."

"That's right, it's your Daoist Kun."

"The bad news is, I'm the one staying."

"So, next, you may have to rely on your own."

Shen Shubai spoke very plainly, and everyone understood what he meant, so they felt a little heavy in their hearts for a while.

They just didn't expect that the matter had become serious enough to call for rescue.

Then, can they still survive?

They didn't know, and Shen Shubai couldn't guarantee it. For a while, people were panicked, and it was false to say that they didn't complain.

The entire team even faintly revealed a hint of despair.

Although it was an expected reaction, Shen Shubai still felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't show it.

"Actually, there is no way, let's calm down first."

Gu Yu spoke suddenly, her tone was firm, calling back their scattered thoughts.

She is the person with the highest cultivation in the group, and she is also a person who has participated in many trainings. From yesterday's training, it can be seen that in this team, her words are still quite convincing.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, everyone seemed to be in a better mood.

Seeing her calm appearance, everyone's anxiety seemed to be calmed down strangely by a pair of calm hands.

Yan Ye said very cooperatively: "Yes, isn't there a rescuer? We just need to persist until the rescuer arrives."

Other disciples echoed, "Yes, we are at the foot of Xuanmingzong's mountain, very close."

"Maybe in the afternoon, the rescuers will arrive."

Seeing how encouraged they were, Shen Shubai couldn't bear to continue talking.

Because judging from last night's situation, whether Kun Daozi can successfully move to rescue soldiers, he actually has no idea.

It's just that he doesn't intend to speak out about it now.

In the team, the atmosphere became lively again, except for Gu Yu and Yan Ye, they should have realized something.

"Then, now I have one more thing to tell you."

Shen Shubai interrupted their conversation.

Everyone fell silent.

"Although I don't know why you all heard my voice last night, I guess this matter should have something to do with the demons."

As soon as this was said, someone exclaimed.

"Demon?!"

Why did the rumored demons appear in a small mountain village under their sect.

Shen Shubai didn't give them a chance to discuss, his tone was still flat, and he continued: "Yes, so I hope you can be more careful in doing things."

"Then why don't we stay in the house and wait for the rescuers." A disciple suggested.

"Yes, we can all stay together. If the demons come to the door, we can take care of each other."

Some people backed out immediately, or they should have chosen a safer way, which was also expected by Shen Shubai.

The reason why he said this was to give them the right to choose.

So he was not surprised, and even proposed two options for them.

"Well, those who are willing to investigate, come with me."

"Those who want to wait for rescuers can go back now."

There was no other emotion on his face, and his tone was neither urgent nor slow. He actually admired such a person, at least he could correctly understand his own strength and make the best choice.

You know, except for him, no one here has even faced the demons head-on, so it is understandable for Shen Shubai to shrink back.

People, the fear of the unknown is far greater than the known things. Shen Shubai has known this for a long time, so he will not force them.

However, Shen Shubai had to go, he didn't like being in a passive position, and at the same time, he could complete the task and get huge reward points, so he had no reason not to go.

"I choose to investigate."

Yan Ye silently stood behind Shen Shubai, Gu Yu, and a male disciple who was not very conspicuous in the crowd.

"Okay, except for them, everyone else go to the altar, and we will meet there at night."

Shen Shubai quickly arranged the whereabouts of the remaining disciples. After what happened last night, he would naturally not allow them to be scattered in the villagers' homes, so the altar was also a gathering point he had thought of in advance.

Others naturally agree.

Although Xiao Wu didn't have any sense of existence from the beginning to the end, he was standing behind Shen Shubai at this moment. Seeing Shen Shubai like this, he felt a little strange. There was a slight panic in his expression, and he even felt a little calm.

This is completely different from Shen Ci in the Xiao Mansion.

But I have to say that such Shen Ci is very attractive.

After the discussion, they will naturally split up.

Shen Shubai took Gu Yu, Yan Ye and Chu Yun to Li's house.

Another taciturn disciple is Chu Yun, who is a sword cultivator, and his cultivation in the Tribulation Breaking Stage is not bad.

On the way, Gu Yu helped to undo the Aphonia Curse on Xiao Wu's body, and also used several cleansing spells on him, so Xiao Wu looked much cleaner now.

Shen Shubai originally wanted him to stay at the altar with other disciples, so nothing would happen during the day.

He even felt that Xiao Wu should offer to stay there by himself, but the kid kept following him.

Forget it, in fact, it would be more at ease to follow him.

He even thought very optimistically that the protagonist generally has a special physique-triggering the plot!By the way, it would be nice to help him complete the task.

Of course, Xiao Wu didn't know what he was thinking. Although he could speak now, Xiao Wu was still very silent, and Shen Shubai was not in the mood to ask him those questions now.

What Yuan Niang said yesterday clearly meant something. Shen Shubai originally planned to go and have a look last night, but he couldn't go out because of the situation last night.

He even suspected that what happened last night was caused by Yuan Niang, but he couldn't be sure.

As soon as he arrived outside Li's house, a strong wind blew up.

It was clear that the scorching sun was hanging high, but the wind made everyone flinch unconsciously.

The door creaked, causing Shen Shubai, who was about to knock on the door, to pause. The wind blew the door open a small crack, and the stench coming from the pavement made everyone's complexions a little ugly.

Although I don't know what happened, it will definitely not be a good thing.

Although Shen Shubai had smelled blood many times, every time it would bring him a strong sense of discomfort, he pushed the door open with a pale face, and the situation inside the door was presented before them.

Blood, blood all over the yard.

The blood splattered and even flowed to the door, and even stained some on the courtyard wall. There seemed to be a magic circle drawn with blood in the middle of the courtyard, and in the center of the magic circle stood three pillar-like things.

"Isn't this exactly the same as the arrangement of the altar?"

Gu Yu only took one look, then asked.

She had inspected the altar several times yesterday, so she could see the layout here at a glance, except for the water tank, the location where the stones were piled up, and even the stone ditch on the ground were exactly the same as the altar.

It's just that although she saw the stone ditch at the time, because the display was not complete, many places were covered by mud, which led her to think it was just a simple ground defect.

Now it seems that it is not a ground defect at all, but a stone pattern used for sacrifice.

What is the sacrificial offering in this village?And what exactly are they offering sacrifices to?

There is no answer, none of them know.

Shen Shubai carefully avoided the bloodstains and walked in.

After walking in, the strong smell of blood dissipated and turned into a more intense floral fragrance, which made him a little dizzy. The others followed him closely, and naturally they smelled it, and they all frowned in discomfort. .

After getting a little closer, everyone lost their voices again.

"It's human!"

At first they thought it was a pillar, but when they walked in, they realized that it was a person wrapped in something, with only two eyes left to lead to the outside world, and they were staring at them with blood flowing from under them. Like an endless flow, it keeps pouring out.

"Are they still alive?"

Yan Ye asked with some doubts.

"No, he's dead."

Gu Yu replied that she had just checked the breath of the three of them, and there was no more breath.

Everyone retched.

"There is one more person here."

Yan Ye suddenly shouted.

Originally, behind the altar, there was a little girl covered in blood, but they couldn't see it because they were blocked by the human pillar.

Yan Ye tremblingly reached out to probe, then raised his head suddenly, his voice trembling.

"She's still alive."
