Chapter 139: The Martyrs' Shrine in Flames
Go forward one day in time.
The day before yesterday, the Yingfeng Gang, where Scar Dog belonged, suddenly gathered a group of peripheral members like them, and secretly sent them to a house, reportedly to carry out a special mission.
But when they arrived, they found that they were greeted with plenty of fine wine and delicious food, as well as many beautiful and graceful dancers.
Seeing them arrive, the dancers immediately helped them to take their seats, their slender arms caressing their chests or waists, and even the dancers drank the wine themselves before feeding it to them.
The music sounded slowly, and the dancers twisted their tulle clothes, their graceful figures looming in the candlelight.
This scene shocked the members of the Yingfeng Gang who came to participate in the mission.
These scums from the lower class had never been treated like this before, and for a moment, all their missions and tasks were forgotten.
All members were immersed in this debauchery at this moment.
And in the alternation of fine wine and beautiful women, a clear bell rang slowly, imprinting the joy of the moment along with the bell into their minds.
About an hour later, when the members of the Yingfeng Gang were getting drunk, several guys dressed as managers and thugs suddenly broke into the room. Following a signal from the leader, all the dancers left the stage.
The man cleared his throat, looked around at everyone, and said loudly: "Everyone, are you satisfied with the reception just now?"
"Satisfied! Satisfied!"
"Thank you for the hospitality, sir!"
“You don’t have to call me sir, I’m just a servant of the Liu family.
Since you are all satisfied, then my Liu family's sincerity is also counted. I hope that when I ask you to do something later, I hope you will not drag your feet. "
After saying that, the manager clapped his hands, and two of his men brought up a box. Then the manager waved his hand to signal his men to open the box, revealing a large amount of silver and talismans made of talisman paper inside.
"I believe that the gang has given you instructions when you came here. All actions must be under our command. Now, it's time for you to get to work."
"Sir, just give your orders. We will definitely get it done for you no matter if it means going through fire and water."
Yingfeng gang, taking advantage of the alcohol, shouted loudly.
"Okay! Take as much silver as you can from this box. In addition, each of you will get a stack of fire talismans. Follow me out of the city later. After the job is done, you can pick any of the dancers who served with you for drinks and take them home."
"Hey! There is such a good thing. What do you want us to burn, sir?"
Someone in the crowd recognized the fire talisman. Their Yingfeng Gang had committed many murders and arson before.
"Haha! North of the city, Hengyue Mountain, the Martyrs' Shrine!"
Wow!
The crowd was in an uproar.
"Why do you want to burn it? It's just an ancient building. There is no money or profit in it. There is no benefit in burning it. On the contrary, it will attract investigation from above.
After all, that place has a special meaning, and ordinary people only worship it, not desecrate it."
"Hmph, you don't have to worry about this. Just follow our instructions and don't worry about anything else."
The manager snorted coldly and looked at the people of Yingfeng Gang with a cold look in his eyes.
Everyone was speechless for a moment, and suddenly someone spoke up: "Although I am a bastard, I will not do anything that blasphemes my ancestors. I want to quit."
After saying this, the man walked towards the door, intending to leave.
Behind him, five or six members of the Shadow Front Gang followed.
These people have already realized that something is wrong. Instead of just killing people and setting fire to things, they burned down the Martyrs' Shrine, which is a place to commemorate the heroes who died in battle.
Even though I am a scum, it does not mean that I have no bottom line. I can be inhumane, but I cannot do anything that betrays the beliefs of my ancestors.
Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Suddenly, the knife flashed and blood splattered everywhere.
As soon as those men approached the gate, they were killed by the men behind the steward with swords.
Scar Dog looked carefully in the crowd and saw that the weapons used by these servants of the Liu family were all a kind of slender samurai swords.
"Haha, you've drunk the wine, you've touched the beauty, and now you want to run away when the time comes. There's no such thing as a cheap thing in this world.
Although what I want you to do is a bit absurd, the benefits I give you are also real, money, wine, and beautiful women. As for the survival of those broken buildings, what does it have to do with you? "
The manager sneered, and at the same time, the crisp bell rang.
As the bell rang, the memories of the enjoyment they had just had came flooding back to them, just like training a dog.
The refreshing coolness of the wine, the beautiful woman's graceful figure, and her soft and boneless body, every scene seems to be right before my eyes.
The clear ringing sound amplified their desires several times, and some people's eyes were already red.
"After the deal is done, we can choose any of these beautiful women with money?"
One person asked gruffly.
"Of course, you can take the silver in this box now, but girl, come back to me after you complete your mission."
After saying that, the manager clapped his hands, and the dancers who had gone down before came back together. They pestered the members of the Yingfeng Gang, asking them to come find them when the time came, just like girls sending their lovers to the battlefield.
The members of the Yingfeng gang, including Scar Dog, surrendered immediately. They took out a handful of silver and a stack of fire talismans from the box, and then said goodbye to the dancer who had accompanied them before.
What's more, some people even gave all the money they had just received to the dancer they liked.
As for the bodies of the five or six Yingfeng Gang members who were killed at the door, no one even glanced at them.
The scene of blood flowing all over the ground did not affect people's desires at all.
A day later, they were secretly escorted to the foot of Hengyue Mountain in batches by Liu family's men and found a place to hide.
Scar Dog stood at the entrance of the Hengyue Mountain Martyrs' Shrine. With him were Feilong, Shougu and a dozen other members of the Yingfeng Gang, as well as five or six bodyguards from the Liu family.
Although they were said to be security guards, Scar Dog knew that these people must be warriors or even monks, because he could feel the aura from these people that only the real masters in the gang had.
As the clear bell rang again, the joyful scenes of yesterday came to my mind again.
"Listen carefully, everyone. When we get there, we will set fire everywhere, but you must pick up and move down the bricks and stones on the base of the shrine in the main hall. I will use those bricks and stones. After the task is completed, you will be rewarded handsomely.
If you fail to accomplish it, hmph, I will make sure that you die without a complete corpse. Believe me, our Liu family can do it.
The time has come, let’s go up the mountain.”
Faced with desire and using both kindness and force, the members of the Yingfeng Gang immediately became obedient.
Following the order from the manager, all the members of the Yingfeng Gang rushed forward.
At the same time, above the Martyrs' Shrine, a blood-red Great Wall forged by obsession emerged, or to be more precise, it was just a section of the Great Wall, a beacon tower on the Great Wall.
Upon closer inspection, the beacon tower seemed to be very old, with mottled blue bricks, weathered, and traces of knife and axe cuts visible everywhere.
It seemed as if it had gone through countless battles, but its oppressive feeling remained the same, as if it had not diminished in the slightest after millions of years.
Where the smoke of war rose, countless foreign armies were defeated and returned home in defeat.
They are the guardians of this land.
The original intention remains unchanged for a thousand years; fighting the enemy to the death without regrets!
Seemingly as still as a mountain, yet also moving forward courageously!
However, the Yingfeng Gang, a group of scum who had never practiced cultivation, could not see all of this.
Among the group of Liu family warriors following behind the Yingfeng gang, one of them walked a little too fast and accidentally stepped into the cemetery.
In mid-air, a blood-red blade light slashed down like a streak of silk, and before the Liu family general could react, he was crushed into powder.
A pressure was imprinted into the ears of everyone in the Liu family: "If you are not of our race, you will die if you enter the garden!"
The steps of the Liu family members following behind suddenly stopped, and the manager in the lead had an extremely ugly expression on his face.
But then he shouted at the group of Yingfeng Gang members who had already entered the park: "What are you looking at? Hurry up and work. We are waiting for you here."
Then, the manager murmured towards the blood-red Great Wall in the air.
"It's useless. These are your blood. But what good is it if you can keep them safe for a while but can't stop them from being dogs!"
Faced with the hero's obsession, the Akita manager had an arrogant expression, without a trace of respect.
Soon, the fire began to spread throughout the cemetery, and above the cemetery, the blood-red Great Wall also began to emit flames.
An hour later, the Hengyue Mountain Martyrs' Shrine was destroyed, and the main hall was torn to pieces, especially the bricks and stones of its base, which had completely disappeared.
Compared to the fact that the entire Hengzhou Prefecture was destroyed by evil spirits, no one noticed this little detail.
With the bricks and stones of the ancient temple that had been carefully worshipped by the people for thousands of years in hand, the Pantheon Sect’s goal in Hengzhou Prefecture had basically been achieved.
The materials for the Bakongyiyu Pagoda were also increased.
