MTL - Beiyin Great Sage-Chapter 614 First sight of the Criminal Court

   "Dang lang lang lang..."

  In the pitch-black passage, the sound of iron chains colliding continued to rise and fall.

  As the voice approached, a figure slowly appeared under the light of the torch.

  The coming man was dressed in ragged clothes, his hands and feet were bound with heavy shackles, his long hair was scattered on his back, and his eyes were shining with a faint cold light.

   "Newcomer?"

  A slightly sharp voice sounded, with some kind of strange charm:

"follow me."

   Zhou Yi turned around, followed the white shadow in front of him and continued to move forward. After a while, he came to a dark and damp cave and stopped.

   "Senior." Bai Ying cupped his hands toward the cave:

   "A newcomer is here."

"Um."

  In the cave, came the sound of laziness.

  Accompanied by a flash of cold light, there was a clatter of 'crack la la', and the heavy shackles on Zhou Yi's hands and feet broke and fell to the ground.

   This surprised him.

  Has been wearing the shackles for nearly a month, and he knows the quality of them clearly, even if he goes all out with a precious blade, he can't stop cutting.

  The man in the cave didn't even show his face, so he chopped it into pieces easily, and he didn't hurt his flesh at all. His strength and accuracy were astonishing.

   Qi Refiner!

  There is a Qi refiner sitting here?

   But it is reasonable to think about it. The Criminal Court has imprisoned all kinds of traitors and monsters captured in the Batu Caves for three hundred years, and it is difficult for ordinary people to restrain them.

"Huh?"

  The breeze was rippling, blowing on a jade leaf hanging from Zhou Yi's waist, which also surprised the man in the cave:

   "Zi Zhen, that girl's heart protector, it seems that you are highly valued."

Um?

  Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows slightly.

  Before he came, he had indeed seen Zizhen, one of the three true legends of Batu Caves, but he couldn't see the other person's figure through the thick gauze curtain.

  As usual, after asking about the process of killing Shuode, the opponent threw out a jade leaf and was kicked out.

  I haven't even met face to face, so how can I take it seriously?

"what is it call?"

   "Return to senior." Zhou Yi came back to his senses, clasped his hands together:

   "Junior Zhou Yi."

   "People outside the mountain." The man in the cave smiled lightly, as if because of Zi Zhen's relationship, his voice was much softer than before:

   "Interesting, except for Bai Xiu, I haven't seen anyone from outside the mountain for thirty years. The old man and Zhong are the juniors of your cave master."

  Cave Master Junior Brother?

   Zhou Yi's heart beat wildly.

  The cave master of the Black Wind Cave is the only overlord of tens of thousands of miles. It is rumored that he has the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the earth.

   This one is actually the junior brother of the cave master?

  When the next face is positive, he speaks again:

   "Junior Zhou Yi, I have met the senior."

   "It's not a good job to inspect the Third Court. Even Tianman rarely survives a year, let alone ten years." He Zhong said in a leisurely voice:

   "Even if there is something to protect the mind, it may not be able to persist."

"but…"

   "It's not without benefits here."

   "Senior, please give me some advice." Zhou Yi listened attentively as it was a matter of life and death.

"The Xuanxin Mirror is the inheritance of the inner sect of the Black Wind Cave. Apart from becoming an inner disciple, only those who guard the execution court can learn it." An object flew out of the cave and landed at Zhou Yi's feet, but it was a scroll. Booklet:

   "Whether you can live for ten years depends on whether you can complete it."

  Hanging Heart Mirror?

  Zhou Yi picked up the book, flipped through it casually, and saw many complicated talismans. This is obviously a spell to protect the mind and spirit.

   "You have seven days to familiarize yourself with the environment here." He Zhong continued:

   "After seven days, be responsible for feeding the prisoners in the criminal court, and go to the veterinary and poison hospital to get the food. Remember not to get close to the prisoners."

   "If you don't understand anything else, ask Bai Xiu."

"get out!"

   Zhou Yi frowned slightly.

  He Zhong's mental state seemed to be a little off. Just now, he had a gentle tone and an orderly conversation, but suddenly he became irritable.

  Even the voice became hasty and impulsive, and the breath in the cave was like a beast about to go mad, making the cicada startling technique jump frequently.

"yes."

  Calm down, he bowed back.

  The man in white has been waiting behind him, and when he sees him coming, he nods and motions to follow.

   "Brother Taiwan."

   Zhou Yi said:

   "Didn't ask for advice?"

   "My name is Qingxiao." The man in white was not the Bai Xiu He Zhong was talking about. Hearing that the speed of his feet remained the same, he said in a muffled voice:

   "Same as Bai Xiu, responsible for cleaning the prison."

   Then point forward:

   "You can choose any of the empty caves here, eat and drink at the entrance of the Criminal Court, and remember not to miss the feeding time."

"in addition…"

  The corner of his mouth twitched, and he said dumbly:

   "I hope you live long enough, otherwise you will have to clean up the dead bodies and bring in new ones."

   Zhou Yi raised his head.

  The people here seem to be a little unreasonable.

  *

  *

  *

  The cave is full of dust, no one has lived here for some time, and the futons inside are rotten and covered with many mildew spots.

   When Zhou Yi cleaned up, I don't know when.

   After receiving the food and drinking enough, he sat cross-legged on the bluestone bed, opened the book in his hand, and tried to cultivate the Xuanxin Mirror.

  He was punished to guard the Third Court, but in fact it mainly refers to the Criminal Court.

  Going to the veterinary and poisonous courtyards is only because there is food for the prisoners in the criminal courtyard, and they don't stay in the animal and poisonous courtyards.

   The entrance to the Criminal Court is located at the back of Heifeng Mountain.

  There are more than a hundred prisons inside, excavated deep in the mountain, the environment is dark and humid, full of lifelessness, and ordinary people will suffer from illnesses all over their bodies within an hour after entering it.

  Even if you are a savage, you have to use your mana all the time to resist the gloomy and dead air here.

  If it was just this, it would be a bit more difficult for Tianman, so that he would not be unable to survive. The real danger should be something else.

  The jade leaves bestowed by Immortal Master Zizhen, and the Xuanxin mirror that He Zhong took out to be cultivated by inner disciples are all treasures to protect the mind and spirit.

   It appears that

  Danger should be related to mind.

  Seven days passed in a flash, and by the time Zhou Yixing left the stone room, he had already mastered Xuanxin Mirror.

  Hanging Heart Mirror: Getting Started (1/100)

  This method is extremely unique. It can use magic power to transform into a void 'mirror', hide the soul in it, and resist various attacks on the mind.

  The higher the cultivation level and the more proficient the skills, the greater the defensive power of the 'mirror'.

Not only that.

  The Xuanxin Mirror can also increase the power of its own soul, and the size of the increase also depends on how far this spell has been cultivated.

   To weaken the offensive and strengthen oneself, and to target the illusory soul, is worthy of the inheritance of the inner sect of Batu Caves.

   "You are Zhou Yi?"

   "My name is Bai Xiu!"

  Bai Xiu has ordinary features, a slender figure, and a white complexion. He looks light and ghostly like a ghost. He nodded and said:

   "Push into the car and follow me."

"yes."

  Zhou Yiying, honestly pushed the wheelbarrow aside.

  There are wooden barrels on the car, and the barrels are filled with all kinds of meat. The meat is fresh flesh and blood, and it has a strong fishy smell.

  He pushed the cart, looked at Bai Xiu in front of him, his eyebrows twitched suddenly.

   Qi Refiner!

  This Bai Xiu is a Qi Refiner.

Thinking about it carefully, Qing Xiao, who took him to the Criminal Court seven days ago, seems to be a Qi refiner, but what they practice is not the most common five poisons and eight evils in the Batu Caves, and the external appearance characteristics are not so obvious , That's why Zhou Yi subconsciously ignored it.

   "Calm down and concentrate."

  Bai Xiu paused, and said in a muffled voice:

   "When feeding food, the most important thing is to avoid distracting thoughts, otherwise I doubt whether you can live for a year."

  These words,

   uses the lingua franca of the outside world.

   "Yes." Zhou Yi calmed down and tried to ask:

   "Brother Bai is also a Batu Cave disciple?"

  Bai Xiu doesn't look very old, it's inappropriate to call him senior, and it's not good to be too close, so he can only speak tentatively.

"no."

  The other party obviously didn't want to talk too much, so he continued to move forward, walked along the dark passage for a while, and stopped before an iron railing:

   "Feed the spider mother first, the three hundred catties of animal meat in the car are all hers."

  Zhou Yi turned his head sideways, looked inside through the iron railing, his eyes subconsciously shrank, and his whole body tensed up instantly.

  Behind the railing, a fat spider about the size of a single-family house squatted on the ground, the white fat on its body undulating slightly with breathing.

  The terrifying spirit makes the scalp tingle.

  Zhou Yi doubts whether the iron railing can trap it. If this thing goes crazy, no other things are needed. A simple burst of energy may crush everything within a few feet.

  Even a barbarian is vulnerable!

What is this?

"don’t worry."

  Bai Xiu's voice is flat:

   "The spider mother has a peaceful temperament. As long as you don't provoke it, it will never attack you. It is a relatively safe category in the Criminal Court."

   "Your main task is to feed it!"

   "It can produce more than a thousand small spiders every day. These small beads are necessary for refining various precious medicines in the Batu Cave. Qingxiao and I are responsible for collecting them every day."

   "Brother Bai." Zhou Yi swallowed:

   "How can we guarantee not to provoke it?"

   "The spider mother doesn't like sunlight." Bai Xiu said:

   "So don't approach it with a torch. Once there was a guard who was curious about the spider mother who approached her with a torch and was swallowed."

"in addition…"

   "Don't feed it bad things."

   Zhou Yi showed a wry smile, it would not be difficult not to stimulate with a torch, but he was really not sure if the food was good or not.

   "Don't worry too much." Bai Xiu said:

   "The spider mother is not picky eater, as long as the food is not rotten, it can eat it."

   "That's good." Zhou Yi nodded, calmed down, and tried to pick up the meat on the car with strength, and sent it to the spider mother through the air.

   "Gulu..."

  The spider mother's body squirmed, and a phantom flashed past. Before Zhou Yi could react, she felt that the flesh disappeared as soon as she relaxed her strength.

  That piece of meat weighed at least twenty catties, so it just disappeared?

  Calm down, he continued to send the meat, and it was devoured in a short time.

   "Let's go!"

  Bai Xiu nodded, and walked forward.

   Except for the spider mother, who is very important to Batu Caves, all the prisoners in the Criminal Court are felons who have committed various serious crimes.

   Respect or some invisible existence.

   "He is the younger brother of the cave master of Feiyun Cave. Eight years ago, he offended the cave master and was captured here. He was chained to the lute bone and tortured day and night."

  Pointing to a skinny and boneless old man in the cave, Bai Xiu said calmly:

   "Every seven days, just feed him one meal. As long as you don't starve to death, you can do the job. But you must be careful, this man is insidious and cunning. At least five guards were lured by his words to make mistakes and died."

   "Hey hey..." The old man was covered in chains. Hearing this, hey hey chuckled and yelled strangely:

   "A newcomer here?"

   "Boy, my Feiyun Cave has been passed down for thousands of years, but it is not comparable to the Black Wind Cave. The old monster Black Wind has trapped me for eight years, so you know why he didn't kill me?"

   "I just want to get the inheritance of Feiyun Cave from me. How can I give it to him, but if you can bring me something, I don't mind teaching you a few tricks."

   "Although I can't compare to the old monster Heifeng, I don't need his junior brother to be weak. A few words of advice are enough for you to benefit from for several years."

   "Brother Bai." Zhou Yi ignored the other party and looked at Bai Xiu in surprise:

   "Are you sure he only eats one meal a day?"

a meal,

  The spirit is so good?

   "It's just bigu." Bai Xiu looked indifferent:

   "A monk in the late stage of Qi refining can also cultivate similar supernatural powers."

   "Supernatural power?" The old man quacked and laughed:

   "Boy surnamed Bai, what do you know about supernatural powers? Even Old Monster Black Wind is not qualified to cultivate real supernatural powers."

   "Don't pay attention to him." Bai Xiu went on:

"let's go."

"yes."

  Zhou Yi nodded, looked back at the old man, and was about to step up to keep up, when his expression suddenly changed.

   At the moment when his eyes met the old man's, a strange light flashed, and everything in his sight suddenly became blurred.

  The already dark passage became quiet and quiet, the path shook and twisted as if it had come to life, and the light flickered on and off.

everything,

  It’s all unreal like a dream, the body is out of control, the consciousness is hazy, and I don’t know what is east, west, north, south.

"Da da…"

   Zhou Yi's cheeks twitched and his body stiffened.

"Um?"

  Bai Xiu frowned, suddenly looked at the old man in the prison, and said angrily:

   "Liu Yunzi, what did you do?"

   "It's just a ecstasy method." Liu Yunzi shrugged and said with a smile:

   "I'm helping you to test him. If I can't even pass this level, I don't know if I will make a big mistake in the future, right?"

   "You..." Bai Xiu looked solemn:

   "It seems that you are still hungry and your time is too short!"

  He doesn't care about Zhou Yi's life or death, but he is leading the newcomers on this trip, and if he dies, he will inevitably be punished by He Zhong.

   And also troublesome.

   "Hoo..."

  At this time, Zhou Yi exhaled lightly, his eyes gradually became clear:

   "Is this the ecstasy method? It's really amazing."

   "Brother Bai, let's go!"

"oh!"

  Bai Xiu raised his eyebrows, and the zombie showed a smile for the first time:

"good."

   "It turns out that there is something that protects the mind." Liu Yunzi rolled his eyes and landed on Zhou Yi's waist, with a look of disdain on his face:

   "Using foreign objects, what kind of skill is it?"

"Ah…"

   Zhou Yi drank lightly, and continued to move forward with the wheelbarrow.

   "She was escorted here a few months ago. I don't know her origin or identity, and she never speaks, but be careful, she is very unusual."

   In front of a prison that is obviously more tightly guarded, Bai corrected the color and said:

   "Don't irritate him, otherwise even a Qi Refiner will find it difficult to resist that... temptation."

   Zhou Yi nodded slowly.

   There is a woman in the prison. The woman has an amazing appearance and a dusty temperament. She is dressed in plain white clothes and is incompatible with the surrounding environment.

  The slightly bulging belly made him raise his eyebrows slightly:

"She is pregnant?"

   "Not bad." Bai Xiu nodded:

   "It's just a stillbirth, it won't survive."

  When the woman heard the words, her delicate body trembled slightly, and Bai Xiu hurriedly stepped forward, as if he was afraid of angering the other party.

   "The master of Batu Cave has made many enemies, and many people detained here are 'missing' to the outside world, so don't spread the word."

  Bai Xiu walked forward and spoke:

   "There are still some people whose descendants know that their elders are trapped here, so they will try their best to come to the rescue."

"certainly…"

   "Most of the people in the prison are harmless, and I will tell you about some that need special attention."

   "Currently there are four people in charge of feeding and eating. The area you are in charge of partially overlaps with them. Go get in touch with them yourself when the time comes."

"yes."

  Zhou Yiying, suddenly stopped, and looked to the side of the prison:

   "This is..."

   "His name is Hauge." Bai Xiu said:

   "The black wind tunnel qi refiner was unwilling to sign a master-slave contract with the inner sect qi refiner. When signing the contract, he devoured his master and escaped. After the incident, he was locked in."

  Haug!

  This person, Zhou Yi, has some impressions. Back then, a man named Ma Yu had some disputes with him. Ma Yu's backstage was Qi refiner Hauge.

   Never thought about it.

   After a few years, this person became a prisoner of Batu Caves.

   "I became a gold miner at the age of eighteen, I became an outer disciple after ten years of hard work, and I became a Qi refiner by luck in eight years. I have come to today step by step."

  In the darkness, Hauge slowly raised his head, with a low voice:

   "The end of the gold digger is to become an inner sect disciple blood contract spirit beast, life and death are involuntary, how can I be willing?"

   "Even if I do it again, I won't regret it."

   "Give me death rather than slavery!"

   "Hmph!" Bai Xiu snorted coldly:

   "Since the day you became a gold digger slave, the mark of slavery has been branded on you, even if you die, you are still a slave of Batu Caves."

   "No one can change this."
