Let's talk about this Eastern Territory land, which is vast and boundless.
After leaving the Great Tang boundary, I don't know how far to the west.
This is the Spirit Mountain paradise.
This place is not subject to secular jurisdiction and has no imperial laws.
It is the lair where Demon is entrenched, the paradise of alien cultivation.
Look around.
If you don't know about it, at first glance, you will only think that it is a paradise for immortals, or a paradise for seclusion.
Spirit Mountain Although it is big, there are many hills.
But what can truly be called a place of honor are the ten most majestic and majestic main peaks.
Each one has a statue of Demon Emperor in the first ten holes.
Rule one side and command the demons.
And among those ten peaks.
There is a place that is the most peculiar.
The name of this mountain is Green Phoenix Mountain.
Different from the barren mountains and harsh waters elsewhere, Yao Qi reaches the sky.
On this Qingqiu mountain, there are birds singing, flowers fragrant, and flowing water flowing.
The mountains and fields are covered with tender pink wildflowers. When the wind blows, the fallen flowers are colorful and beautiful.
There are also pavilions and pavilions built against the mountain.
The cornices are upturned, the beams are carved and the buildings are painted.
At first glance, it looks exactly like the garden in the Jiangnan water town.
On the mountain road.
There are even more people coming and going all the time.
Just got closer and took a closer look.
But it makes people's hair stand on end and sends chills down their spines.
Who is that person?
They are clearly a group of foxes walking upright!
These foxes are all dressed like monkeys.
Some were wearing Confucian shirts and square scarves, waving folding fans in their hands, and others were shaking their heads.
Some of them were dressed in silk silk, smeared with makeup and powder, imitating the appearance of other ladies, hiding their faces and smiling softly, growing lotuses every step of the way.
They learn how people speak and how they behave.
I even learned the etiquette of bowing my hands to a 100% degree.
What a pity.
The big tail trailing behind him and the sharp-mouthed monkey cheek look look awkward.
And halfway up the mountain.
Outside a hall named Cinnabar Heart Pavilion.
It was even more lively.
Dozens of huge Pill Furnace are lined up in a row, the fire is blazing and the heat wave is rolling.
The air was filled with a strong medicinal aroma, mixed with a burnt smell.
The person busy next to Pill Furnace was not a fox demon.
Instead, they are all ragged, sallow-looking human beings!
Their ankles were chained with thick iron chains, and all of them were disheveled and looked numb.
"Pa--!!"
The crisp sound of the whip broke the dull sound of work.
I saw a fox demon wearing a butler's costume, waving a long whip full of barbs in his hand, and whipped an old man on the back viciously.
The old man screamed and fell to the ground.
The skin on his back was instantly torn open and blood was dripping from his body.
"Old guy! Didn't you eat?!"
The fox demon butler screamed and uttered human words, with a ferocious look on his lips. "Huo Hou! Huo Hou! How many times have we said this?!"
"This alchemy technique is all about simmering over slow fire. Do you still need my family to teach you? Are you trying to explode the furnace with such a fierce attack?!"
The old man ignored the severe pain on his back and quickly got up. "My boss, please forgive me... My boss, please forgive me..."
"Little old man... little old man is really exhausted, this hand... this hand is shaking..."
"Lack of energy?"
The fox demon butler sneered and lifted the old man's chin with his toes.
"Since I have no strength, there is no use keeping these hands."
"Here comes someone!"
"Drag this old guy down, chop off his hands, and throw him to another mountain."
"Yes!"
Two strong guards stepped forward with grins.
"No! No!"
The old man was so frightened that he screamed miserably.
The surrounding Cauldron Sect disciples all had their heads lowered and their bodies were trembling.
His eyes were full of despair and grief.
But no one dared to speak out to stop it.
here.
Human life is like grass.
Even though the surrounding scenery is picturesque and the peach blossoms are blooming.
But in their eyes.
What kind of paradise is this?
The fox demon butler looked at the old man being dragged away and kicked his toes in disgust.
Then he turned around and smiled sinisterly at the rest of the people.
"We've all tightened our skins!"
"Our king is the most particular person and cherishes talents the most."
"As long as you are obedient and refine good elixirs, your Majesty will be rewarded."
"But if anyone dares to cheat or have any evil intentions..."
It pointed to the mist-shrouded mountain cliff in the distance.
"Down there, there are many hungry and red-eyed babies waiting to be eaten!"
Say it.
It changed into a gentle look again, opened the folding fan in its hand, and shook it gently.
"Okay, don't be stunned."
"Get on with the work!"
"This alchemy is an elegant matter and requires a calm mind..."
"You humans are just too impetuous and don't understand the elegance of this..."
Listen to such ridiculous remarks.
Everyone Pill Slave felt a sense of sadness in their hearts.
A group of beasts that drink hair and blood.
Now he wears human clothes, speaks human language, and wants to teach these alchemy masters what elegance is?
This world.
It really confuses right and wrong and messes up everything...
Green Phoenix Mountain somewhere.
This place is not as smoky as the front mountain, and there is no sound of howling with whips.
On the contrary, there are dense pines and cypresses, standing bamboos, and the faint sound of reading loudly, which is quite elegance of a scholarly family.
I saw a group of young children gathering together and playing on the flat grass.
But among this group of children, there are many little beasts with rough faces and loud mouths mixed in.
These little foxes, all wearing miniature versions of Confucian shirts and scarves, with big fluffy tails trailing behind them, mingled among the crowd like humans and dogs.
Either playing sepak takraw or holding a bamboo horse, having a great time.
It's not like Cauldron Sect still has the heart to reproduce after being reduced to a prisoner like this.
It's not like Demon suddenly had a kind heart and allowed these human children to live here without any worries.
This matter is actually the rule set by Green Phoenix Ancestor... that is, Green Fox Demon Emperor.
This Azure Phoenix lineage prides itself on being noble, and has always looked down upon those vulgar Demons who only know how to drink hair and drink blood, and rely on brute force to show off their evil deeds.
In their view, how are those behaviors different from those of wild animals?
Therefore, the Green Phoenix Mountain people not only practice martial arts, but also focus on refining weapons and elixirs. They also learn all the music, chess, calligraphy and painting of the Perfected Person clan.
The reason why this group of human children are kept in captivity is to allow their own cubs to eat, live, and play with them.
The purpose is to let these descendants of the Fox Clan, who have been exposed to it since childhood, know the habits of the human race and understand the thinking of the human race.
Only when you know yourself and the enemy can you... replace yourself.
At this time.
I saw that on the grass, the original sound of play gradually stopped.
Instead, there was a burst of red-faced argument.
A little fox in a green shirt stood up, with his two front paws on his waist, shouting in a high-pitched voice.
"No! No!"
"What you said is wrong!"
The big tail behind him was wagging angrily, pointing at the human children opposite.
"The master of the clan has clearly said that the virtuous will inhabit everything in the world, and the capable will control it!"
"In today's world, the human race is weak and has already lost the favor of heaven."
"We, the fox tribe, are intelligent, understand yin and yang, know etiquette, and know how to advance and retreat. We should be the protagonists of this world!"
