Cloud of the Qing Dynasty

Everyone looked at the ordinary-looking audience, Qin Wuqi was not annoyed, but said indifferently: "I don't know who you are?"

The audience said: "I'm just here to watch the excitement, so can't the unknown juniors not speak?"

Qin Wuqi smiled: "Your Excellency's question is reasonable, and there must be many people here who have such doubts in their hearts. Qin might as well tell you some examples, maybe you can understand why Qin wants to eradicate The Red Lotus Sect is upholding justice in the martial arts world."

Then he began to talk eloquently: "I won't talk about more distant things, just say that six years ago, the Jinhong Escort was ransacked by the Red Lotus Sect. Not only the escorts were lost, but all the escorts, including the servants and children, were killed. In the same year, the head of the Shahai Gang became insane and disappeared after killing a large number of gang members. It was later confirmed that it was the work of the Red Lotus Sect. Five years ago, the Flying Fish Gang and the Black Mountain Gang were annexed by the Red Lotus Sect. The Long Whale Gang refused to join , everyone was tied up in the house and burned alive. In the same year, the young master of the Haisha Sect was bewitched by the Red Lotus Sect, tied his parents who prevented him from believing in the religion, and burned them to death. The Honglian sect killed 37 members of Qingyujian Zhuo Bufan's family, set fire to more than 70 houses in Hongye Town, and killed or injured more than 13 unrelated people. In February, they burned down the Changfeng Escort Bureau, killing 47 bodyguards and killing the head of the bodyguard. Ling Chi asked about the whereabouts of the escorts. In April of the same year, [-] members of the Zhenhai Gang were killed, and all the old, young, women, and children of the gang were tied to fire pillars and burned alive..."

He announced these evil deeds one by one in a steady voice. The closer the time was, the more intensive the incidents were, ranging from a few incidents a year to more than a dozen incidents a year, until May of this year.

People in the rivers and lakes occasionally hear about the evil deeds of the Red Lotus Sect. Apart from thinking that the Red Lotus Sect is a cult, they just talk about it after dinner, and they don't think that the evil deeds of the Red Lotus Sect have anything to do with them. .Now Qin Wuqi reported all these things together in one breath. After talking for a quarter of an hour, the more everyone listened, the more creepy they felt.

Until he finished talking about the last case, the scene was so quiet that a needle could be heard. The audience looked at each other, and no one spoke for a long time.

Long Jiu frowned and said softly: "Unexpectedly, those cases were also made by the Red Lotus Sect, but I don't know whether Qin Wuqi has real evidence, or just talked about it casually based on guesswork."

"Why don't you just ask him?" Zhang Chi suggested.

Long Jiu nodded silently.

Qin Wuqi continued to give a speech. Even after speaking for so long, his voice was still full of confidence: "The ambition of the Red Lotus Sect has been clearly revealed. They not only killed many fellow martial artists, but also killed countless people. Common people. In the past, they only picked out some small sects that were weak and isolated. Now that the Red Lotus Sect has accumulated a certain strength, it is about to set off a bloody storm in the Jianghu. Xue's attitude is likely to be defeated by the Red Lotus Sect sooner or later."

The nine major sects sitting in the front row and the audience from the countless minor sects behind were all whispering to each other, and gradually there were some voices of approval in the conversation.

Qin Wuqi waited for a while before continuing: "I know that everyone here may have many doubts about the crusade against the Red Lotus Sect, especially the rumor that the Red Lotus Sect has refined a secret medicine called 'Blood Demon Pill' , after taking it, it can greatly increase one's power and become extremely difficult to deal with. Some people even intend to join the Red Lotus Sect because they are greedy for this method of rapidly increasing their power. Martial arts comrades show how the 'Blood Demon Pill' really works."

As he spoke, the iron guards of Jinghong Villa soon brought up two large iron cages, each containing a man with disheveled hair and a crazy expression. The hands and feet of the two prisoners were hung by iron chains. It seemed to be very weak, but he still struggled feebly to hit the iron railing with his head, and stared at the blood-red eyes, trying to bite the iron guard outside with his teeth bared.

Such a terrifying scene caused the audience to scream one after another.

Qin Wuqi said: "During the battle with the Red Lotus Sect, the Iron Guards of Jinghong Villa risked their lives to capture some members of the Red Lotus Sect who had eaten the Blood Demon Pill, but only these two survived."

Audiences who were closer also saw that the two men were naked from the upper body, with red flame tattoos on their left back shoulders.

Qin Wuqi waited for the whispers in the auditorium to spread for a while before continuing: "According to our observations, people who take the Blood Demon Pill will have seizures within a quarter of an hour, and if they start to fight with others immediately after taking it, the seizures will be even worse. Hurry up, after the attack, some people can still retain a little clarity, and most of them are completely insane, but without exception, all the people who took the blood demon pill never recovered their normal sanity. And Honglian The way the church treats these people is to tie them up with iron chains like dogs, and release them to bite people when necessary. They call these people who have taken medicine "blood slaves", and there is a special "blood slave" in the Red Lotus Sect. People will control these 'blood slaves' with flute sounds, and give them some simple commands to attack or stop. What's more frightening is that all the 'blood slaves' captured by us, no matter how we take care of them, have never lived beyond three years. It's been a month. Speaking of which, I believe that no one here is willing to become a 'blood slave' of the Red Lotus Sect in order to temporarily improve his power."

Some people thought at first that the scars on the two people were caused by the torture at Jinghong Mountain Villa, but now many discerning people can see that their injuries were caused by their own struggle, and there were medicines applied to the wounds. The traces of bandaging were just that the bandages were pulled away by themselves again.

Zhang Chi couldn't help but secretly stunned. He didn't expect this secret medicine to be so cruel, overbearing and inhumane. Marquis Yongning's idea of ​​using it to improve the combat effectiveness of the army seemed to be in vain.

"After several months of hard work, the doctors of Jinghong Villa have figured out the principle of this secret medicine. The Blood Demon Pill is the result of the joint action of Gu poison and psychedelic medicine. It can't actually improve the skill out of nothing. It’s just squeezing out the potential of the human body.” Qin Wuqi continued, “The martial arts students present here must know that the potential that a person unleashes under extreme conditions is very powerful, but in normal times, people will instinctively suppress it. Hold your own potential and control the limit of your body within a range that won't hurt you. However, people who take the Blood Demon Pill will lose this instinct of self-control, and their body will be under extreme excitement. Ignoring all the moves, the muscles will be strained, the bones will be broken, the internal force will break through the meridians, and even cause death from overwork. Moreover, the blood demon pill will make people completely lose the sense of pain and become insane. It causes great psychological pressure on the opponent, so it will give people the illusion of greatly increased skill. As long as you know the truth behind the blood demon pill, this so-called secret medicine of the Red Lotus Sect is just a little troublesome, in fact it is not horrible."

A disciple of the Kongtong sect here raised a question: "I have heard a rumor that these people who have eaten the blood demon pill are the incarnation of the blood demon. As long as they are scratched or bitten by them, or come into contact with their wounds, The blood that comes out will be overwhelmed by the blood of the Gorefiend, and will go crazy like them, is this true?"

These words made many people look horrified. Compared with justice, their own safety is obviously more important. After all, no one wants to be such a lunatic who has no sense and is dying.

"This is nothing but nonsense. The conflict between Jinghong Villa and Red Lotus Sect has been going on for a long time. Many subordinates have been injured by blood slaves, but none of them have experienced such symptoms."

Someone questioned: "The absence of Jinghong Villa does not mean that there are no other places."

Qin Wuqi said calmly: "Even if there is, it is estimated that someone was injured first, and then drugged by the Red Lotus Sect, which caused such a misunderstanding. You may wish to think about it, even if the blood demon father and son are still alive None of the people injured by them became blood slaves, let alone this blood demon pill that was purely an impostor?"

A disciple of the Qingcheng faction said, "You mean, the blood demon pill has nothing to do with the rumored blood of the blood demon?"

"No." Qin Wuqi replied bluntly, "The Red Lotus Sect is entirely because the blood demon father and son are too deeply impressed in people's minds, and the traits shown after eating the blood demon pill are similar to the rumored blood demon. There are some similarities, so it’s just a bluff in the name of Gorefiend.”

The audience began to whisper again, and one person's voice was a little louder: "Even so, these blood slaves are still very difficult to deal with, and I heard that there are hundreds of thousands of members of the Red Lotus Sect, and they will smash us with every stone. If you're dead, don't join in the fun."

Qin Wuqi once again said solemnly: "Those who say that blood slaves are difficult to deal with, you might as well think about it, since blood slaves can't live long, and the Red Lotus Sect's ambitions are getting bigger and bigger, they will definitely need more talented people in the future." People who have a certain foundation in martial arts become blood slaves that they can drive. No matter how they can confuse people, where can they find so many willing victims? What if there are not enough blood slaves in the future? Naturally, they will hunt around for those who know martial arts People in the Jianghu, if they are forcibly drugged and turned into blood slaves, as long as the Red Lotus Sect is not eradicated for a day, everyone present here and your relatives and friends may suffer such a fate."

He pointed to the two lunatics who were still struggling in the cage: "As people in the Jianghu, victory or defeat or life and death are just common things, but who wants to suffer such humiliation and torture that is more terrible than death, and who can endure their own suffering?" One day, your relatives and friends will lose their sanity and become such a puppet driven by the Red Lotus Sect?"

This is the real heart-breaking words. Qin Wuqi successfully mobilized people's sorrowful emotions, and said while the iron was hot: "The Red Lotus Sect is so perverse and demagogic. It is not only the enemy of the rivers and lakes, but also the cancer of the entire Central Plains." Although they have tens of thousands of congregants, we are not fighting alone. The government has already started mobilizing food and salaries, and is about to send troops to wipe out the congregation of the Red Lotus Sect. We just need to temporarily form a martial arts alliance to cooperate with the government to deal with Red Lotus Just be the most difficult master in the sect. After the event is completed, the name of the Tongmenghui will be recorded in the annals of history, and there will be a generous bounty issued by the government as a reward. I also hope that everyone will work together to eradicate this gang of evil cults that harm people , to restore the peace and stability of the rivers and lakes and the civil society."
