a very dark dark guard

Chapter 145 Vice-Cult Master

In the afternoon, the rain became heavier and heavier, turning from drizzle to moderate rain.I came out of Wan'er's residence and went to Moshi Mountain to see Yunzhou and the others. They were protected by a biological barrier of white fur balls, and nothing happened.

There is no place to sleep, no food and water on Magic Stone Mountain, so it can only be used as a temporary refuge.

I went back to Ximen Wuhen's dormitory, discussed with the masked man and told them to retreat to the town first.

Since Ximen Wuhen agreed to go with them, he would definitely go, and they didn't have to guard outside his house.

The masked people accepted my suggestion, all exited the headquarters, and waited in the nearest town.

In this raid, they only killed the rebels, as well as... cats, dogs and other small animals.

Ordinary members of the Demon Cult are not allowed to keep pets, only those who have reached a certain level can keep pets.

The hall masters are busy with work every day, and the stewards of the four courtyards go back and forth on shifts, and they don't care about raising these things. Only a few elders have the time to raise a bird, amuse a cat or something.

They must not carry their pets on their backs in rebellion, and the pets did not take the antidote, and were all poisoned to death by the poisonous smoke from the masked man.

No matter how you look at it, this action of the masked man feels a bit anticlimactic.

After they left, I went up the mountain and brought Yun Zhou and the others back.

Everyone went back to their homes. After a day of hunger, they could start cooking for dinner at night, and every family started to cook.

The rebels who were killed by the masked men were mainly concentrated around Ximen Wuhen's sleeping hall. This area is usually a 'key area', and ordinary congregants would not come here.

So the guard Jia observed the street along the way, wondering why the end of a storm seemed so normal.

The scene of the battle he imagined is similar to the special effects of fighting in ancient costume movies made by modern people. With a wave of hands from both sides, the lake exploded, the boat exploded, the ground exploded, and the houses all collapsed.

"Give up fantasy and return to reality."

He just watched the fun and didn't think it was a big deal. If Ximen Wuhen and the Fourth Elder played the special effects of frying fish and knocked down the whole house, they would have to repair it and spend money. throw money.

One of the people who knew how to open and close the labyrinth is dead, and the other is sleeping.

The labyrinth cannot be activated for the time being, so I took back the air walls of the four courtyards, leaving only the air threads in the place of the labyrinth.

Elder Gongsun came to me to inquire about Ximen Wuhen's situation.

He knew that Ximen Wuhen was sleeping, and it was not a normal sleep, so he came to me just to ask, if Ximen Wuhen could not come forward to preside over the overall situation, what would he do next.

The loss of four elders, as well as hall masters, guards, and patrol members instantly freed up many positions.

Especially the seats of the four elders. They are the decision makers of the daily work of the Demon Cult. The leader can not come out of seclusion for a long time, but it cannot be done without these decision makers.

I called Wan'er to my side and asked the opinions of the Four Great Guardians. I hoped that the four of them would fill the vacancy first. The Four Great Guardians were to protect the safety of the leader, and when foreign enemies invaded, they would respond to the enemy before the leader.

Since the small martial arts conference, Ximen Wuhen found Wan'er, the 'saint', and the four guardians have been responsible for protecting Wan'er.

I called Wan'er here to make time for the four of them. Wan'er will be under my personal protection, and they can take the place of the Fourth Elder temporarily.

Wait for Ximen Wuhen to wake up before deciding how to go next.

What the Devil's Cult lacks most these years is people. Those selected from the outside, those born inside the Cult, and those who meet the criteria for joining the Cult, all have 'official staff'.

It is not difficult to select some of these people and cultivate them.

Although the four guardians are 'military duties', they are familiar with the affairs of the church, and if they temporarily act as elders, there will be no major problems.

Other vacant positions can be decided after Ximen Wuhen wakes up.

The Four Elders and their faction had all been killed, and there was no suspense that the Demon Cult would be ruled by the leader Ximen.

All his fans, fans, and secrets gathered together to discuss how to assist him in leading the Demon Cult to greater glory in the future.

Elder Gongsun wanted me to go too, but I declined.

Because I was afraid that they would plan in vain and fail to realize it in the end.

I haven't told Elder Gongsun about Ximen Wuhen going to meet his biological mother with the masked man.

They would definitely disagree when they knew about it, Ximen Wuhen himself told them about it.

Ximen Wuhen woke up three days later. During this period, He Chao escorted the shopkeeper of the pharmacy in the town, and returned to the headquarters with Yue Nanxiang and Manager Zhang.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy confessed that he did have contacts with the people from the Golden Gu Society, but it wasn't the person he was looking for. It was the people from the Golden Gu Society who took the initiative to find him and said that there was a big business they wanted to cooperate with.

Golden Gu gave him a batch of antidote pills and told him that they would be sold out in a short time.

The other party confiscated his payment, it was free medicine, and the business of his pharmacy was bleak, so he accepted it in a moment of enthusiasm.

The day before the masked man broke into the Demon Cult's headquarters, someone went to his pharmacy and bought the batch of antidote pills.

When he accepted the batch of detoxification pills, he also muttered. He had a premonition that something would happen to the Demon Sect, so he kept some of the pills.

It was these pills that he sold to He Chao and the others.

He admitted that he had raised the price and sold it to He Chao and the others at five times the price. He is a profiteer, he has a rotten heart, and begged me to spare his life.

I carefully observed his life energy group and knew that what he said was the truth.

He and the Golden Gu Society have only cooperated this time, and they had no contact at all before.

He also wanted to make money so much that he risked his life regardless of the consequences to take the batch of pills.

I asked him, since the business here is not good, why not leave and look for opportunities elsewhere?

The shops in the town are all half dead, I have seen them when I came here.

Some facades are simply dilapidated and cannot be rented out or sold.

Ordinarily speaking, with such a large population, it is impossible for the Demon Cult to support several shops.

He Chao and the others learned through interviews and investigations that the church has long stopped buying necessities such as food and daily necessities from the town.

Ordinary congregants can't get out, and those who are not ordinary... don't like things in this dilapidated town.

The consumer groups faced by the shops in the town are only the residents of the town and the villagers in the nearby villages.

These people don't like spending. The pharmacy owner confessed that his monthly income is just enough to eat.

The medicine cabinet in the shop had already been mostly empty, and only seven or eight kinds of medicinal herbs that were commonly used were in stock, and they were grown by himself.

Facing my question, the owner of the pharmacy sighed deeply. His family has lived here for several generations, and the pharmacy has been handed down to him for the fourth generation.

Shops, real estate, land, all his wealth is here, and it is impossible to realize these.

He has no money and is old, so what can he do if he goes to seek a living elsewhere?

He will definitely not be able to do physical work, and he will not be young after re-learning, and his brain power will not work.

He only knows a few words, can calculate and keep accounts, and he is quite old, and he is working for others as a "beijing" drifter. He really has no confidence that he can do better than he is now.

I learned about his situation, nodded, and said: "You help the Golden Gu Association and provide antidote pills to outsiders, this matter can't be forgotten."

The pharmacy owner trembled with fright, with a bitter face on the verge of tears.

"But you are quite old, let's punish you physically... If you can't bear it, fine... You don't have it. How about this, in the next five years, you will teach and sell medicine for me, we will get nine points, I will get nine points, and you will get one. It's your punishment."

The owner of the pharmacy was taken aback when he heard the words. I didn't wait for him to react, so I asked someone to write a contract and send it to him for his fingerprints.

When the pharmacy owner was sent out by Xiaojiao, he was still in a state of mind wandering, holding the contract for him in his hand.

Xiaojiao sent him out of the courtyard before returning, covered her mouth and smiled and said to me: "He just asked me, is this still the Devil's Cult? Have you changed schools?"

The Devil's Cult has always left people with a very vicious impression, and it really can't be called a decent sect.

In the past, the four elders were in power, and they were harsh and cruel to outsiders. Like the medicine shop owner, he was risking his life to do it, because he knew that if he was discovered by the demon cult, he would die.

Now he not only got out alive, but the Demon Cult will cooperate with him in the future, and he can get a commission. Isn't this a dream?
The pharmacy owner walked out of the Central Hospital as if sleepwalking.

I was thinking about the treasure land of the Demon Cult. Since it is suitable for growing things, in addition to food, vegetables, fruits, medicinal materials can also be tried.

This place is more than 200 kilometers away from the nearest big city, and [-] kilometers away from the nearest county seat.

There are no decent medical clinics in the surrounding villages and towns. Residents in the villages and towns are sick, and they can carry them as much as they can, and they don't take medicine easily.

One is that the medicinal materials are not complete, and the other is that it is too expensive.

Selling high-quality and cheap medicinal materials can not only make money, but also solve the problem of difficulty in taking medicine for local people.

Moreover, members of the Devil's Cult also need medicinal materials. Ordinary believers, like townspeople, cannot take or afford medicines at all.

The contract I signed with the shopkeeper of the pharmacy was kept by the Demon Cult, and I sent someone to the store.

The medicinal materials have not been planted yet, so there is no rush for this matter. They replied that they have saved the contract and will classify and archive it when there are related plans in the future.

Elder Gongsun arranged for the corpses of the rebels to be transported outside the cemetery, and a large pit was dug farther away and buried collectively.

No grave was erected, only a stone tablet was erected, on which it was written that traitors should be punished.

It is estimated that it is to warn future generations, whoever dares to be a traitor will end up like this.

The bodies of the four elders were buried together with their subordinates, and no other graves were raised.

All the property seized from their residence was confiscated. As for the fragmentary evidence found later, it is not important now.

From the moment the four of them became murderous, colluded with outsiders, and cooperated with outsiders to raid their lair, there was no need to find any more evidence to prove their crimes.

However, through these evidences, it is possible to roughly calculate how much money they have corrupted and how many lives are in their hands.

I will let people publish everything I find, so that ordinary church members will know.

There are also canon rules. The elders have modified many contents in order to facilitate them to use their power for personal gain.

Apart from what the predecessors left behind, they added a lot by themselves.

Some are what they set for others, and they never abide by it.

Ximen Wuhen woke up after sleeping for three days, and there were a lot of things waiting for him to make a decision.

He listened patiently for half, then interrupted the report.

He summoned all the members of the Devil's Cult, and announced on the square in the center of the headquarters that I will be solely responsible for all affairs in the Church from now on.

He set up a new position - Deputy Hierarch!

I have the right to make decisions for him, as long as it is something I agree with, he also agrees.

His loyal fans almost burst into tears on the spot, and the power he had finally regained was handed over as soon as he slept and opened his eyes.

The reason he gave was simple. He was going on a long trip, and he was not sure when he would return, maybe three years, maybe five years.

During this period, the Devil's Cult cannot live without a leader. Just like when he was retreating in the past, there must always be someone in charge of the church's affairs.

He trusted the elders before, but they let him down.

Now he wants to rely on his own sister, what's wrong?
He brought up the canon of 'duel' again, and before he finished speaking, Elder Gongsun saluted first and interrupted him.

"The leader is wise, I have met the deputy leader!" Elder Gongsun told me later that he didn't think Ximen Wuhen was wise, but they really couldn't beat me.

Then there is nothing to say, obey the arrangement!

Elder Gongsun took the lead, and others also voted for it.

No disapproval, no one wants to duel with me.

Although they didn't witness the battle of the four elders with their own eyes, they can guess what a terrifying 'superior' I am through the aftermath.

The kerosene collected from all over the city was enough to burn the entire headquarters of the Demon Cult to ashes.

However, there are only extinguished torches beside the kerosene, and the unconscious traitor is still poured beside the torches.

They wouldn't be terrified if only one was like that, but it's like that next to every fire cylinder.

The scariest thing was the scene in the blood pool forbidden area. The guards and patrols outside had already been killed, all poisoned to death by magic vine pollen.

The group of wooden mice, wooden birds and wooden cats in the forbidden area were also seen by those who went in to deal with the aftermath.

There was magic vine pollen all over the ground. When they went there, it rained all day, and the rain turned the pollen into a paste. It didn't matter if they went in with special airtight clothes.

It is not difficult to imagine that when those puppets can still move, they are poisonous weapons.

I am under their siege, nothing happened, isn't that scary?

In their eyes, this is almost a supernatural event.

Don't say they don't have the martial arts as high as the four elders, even if they have, they don't want to duel with me.

So they felt that Ximen Wuhen's decision seemed to be right.

They had just lost a few masters, and it was time for the strong to sit in and protect the Devil's Cult.

Am I not a stronger person than the Four Great Elders?

No one objected to Ximen Wuhen's decision, but his decision to go with the masked man was resolutely opposed by his loyal fans.

Since it was mentioned that he was going out, he had to ask where he was going?

Elder Gongsun and the others didn't know that the masked man was going to take Ximen Wuhen to meet his biological mother.

Ximen Wuhen told them that he was going to see his mother, she was running out of time.

His die-hard fans all had 'ridiculous' expressions on their faces.

In the past, people often used the news of his biological mother as bait to lure him into various traps.

He rarely believed it, so why did he believe it this time?
The spokesman for the masked man was called back to the Devil's Cult, and Elder Gongsun wanted to detain him and torture him to extract a confession.

Ximen Wuhen disagreed, he didn't want to waste time, he wanted to leave immediately, and he wanted to take Wan'er with him.

Everyone can see how he treats Wan'er, and he will never allow Wan'er to be in danger.

He was willing to take Wan'er with him, which showed that he really believed what the masked man said.
