I sell lunch boxes in the underworld
Chapter 98 Dead...They are all dead
Seeing her curiosity, Meng Po explained, "This Wan Gui Cliff isn't filled with ten thousand ghosts. It's that even if ten thousand ghosts went there, not a single complete ghost would return. If this is the case with ghosts, then even a human soul wouldn't be left behind."
Qin Yunieyan's eyes widened in shock. She gasped and looked at Meng Po in disbelief, stammering, "Is this Ten Thousand Ghosts Cliff... so terrifying?"
Meng Po looked at her with a hint of deep meaning in her eyes, and said slowly, "It is rumored that Taotie is imprisoned there, and anyone who goes down from the Cliff of Ten Thousand Ghosts will be eaten. However, this is just a rumor, and no one has seen it with their own eyes."
Hearing this, a huge and ferocious figure appeared in Qin Yunie's mind, and a chill surged in his heart.
"Tao Taotie?" She stammered, repeating the name, her eyes full of shock and fear.
The Taotie, one of the four ferocious beasts in mythology?
Qin Yunie felt like her brain was about to stop working.
Is Wangui Cliff related to Taotie?
If this is the case……
It seems that if I were thrown down, there wouldn't be any trace of my body left...
Meng Po nodded, confirming her guess, "It's the Taotie you were thinking of."
Qin Yunie's eyes widened as he asked the question in his heart, "But why is Taotie imprisoned here?"
Meng Po smiled and explained, "Because Taotie can devour everything, including gods. And the miasma beneath the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cliff is inherently dangerous. Imprisoning it beneath the Cliff will prevent it from causing further harm to the world."
The more Qin Yunie listened, the more he felt that it was just a theft, did it need to be sent to Wangui Cliff?
However, Meng Po was not the type to act recklessly. Since she said so, she must have her reasons, so she remained silent.
When the thief heard that there was an ancient ferocious beast Taotie hiding under the Cliff of Wangui, he panicked even more. He quickly looked up at Qin Yunie, and when he saw that Qin Yunie didn't say anything, he thought she agreed to send him to the Cliff of Wangui, and he was really scared and cried.
He kowtowed repeatedly to Qin Yunie and Meng Po, his tone filled with extreme fear, and was much more sincere than before. "My Lord, please don't send me to the Cliff of Ten Thousand Ghosts. As long as you don't let me go to the Cliff of Ten Thousand Ghosts, I will do anything for you."
Meng Po raised her eyelids and looked at him. "Don't want to go? You'll do anything I ask you to do? Then tell me everything you know."
The thief stiffened when he heard this, "Sir, I don't understand what you are talking about."
Meng Po reminded impatiently: "My time is limited, and I don't have that much time to accompany you to make trouble. Since you don't understand, then go to Wangui Cliff and figure it out first."
In the end, he still had a great fear of Wangui Cliff, and was torn between knowing that he might die and not knowing that he would definitely die if he threw himself off Wangui Cliff.
So he said quickly: "I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"
The thief closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said, "It's Master Li Changqing."
A hint of doubt flashed in Meng Po's beautiful eyes, "Who is Li Changqing? What is his purpose?"
He looked troubled and hesitated for a moment before answering, "He is the new leader of the Quanqing Sect. He asked me to find a young girl with a pure body like this sir to improve his skills."
Meng Po asked thoughtfully, "Where did he ask you to take them? Do you know his exact location?"
The thief shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. "He only asked us to lead the people to a pavilion, and he would take care of the rest."
Qin Yunie felt a chill run down her spine. She had originally thought it was just an ordinary theft, but she hadn't expected there to be such an incident behind it!
She couldn't imagine what would happen if she had chased after him just now and Meng Po was not there, and the newly bought talisman was also stolen. What would happen if it fell into the hands of that "adult"?
Meng Po continued to ask, "How many have you brought with you? Are they all girls like her?"
"More than a dozen." He paused, looking at Qin Yunie's expression, hesitant to speak, "This lord is the purest among them. The lord wants only girls who have just taken the Marrow Cleansing Pill and have pure bodies, but no spiritual power."
"Just now, when I saw you two enter the Willow Shade Inn, I actually hesitated about whether to lead this master there. There's a frightening aura about her, and she wasn't traveling alone, so I was worried something might go wrong. But she's so pure, she's the one who would absolutely satisfy that Master Xuanshi. If I take her there, he'll definitely be very happy. That's why I'm waiting at the door for you to come out."
He smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect..."
Meng Po frowned and asked, "Where are they now?"
He opened his mouth, his voice trembling as if something was stuck in his throat, and uttered a few words with difficulty: "Dead... They are all dead."
Meng Po asked, "How do you know?"
He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but he couldn't hide the fear in his heart.
His lips trembled as he recounted, "Once, out of curiosity, I didn't leave after being led there. Instead, I quietly followed the master to an underground vault. He had arranged the bodies of the women in various strange positions, displaying them like exhibits. They were surrounded in a circle with a bright lamp in the center, and each of them had a red string tied to their hands. The whole scene looked strange and mysterious, as if some kind of ritual was taking place. But by then, I was so frightened that I didn't dare to continue watching."
At the end of his speech, his face was as pale as paper and his whole body was shaking.
After hearing his words, Qin Yunie couldn't help but feel a chill running down his spine.
If she didn't have the self-defense amulet given by Meng Po and the others, and the jade pendant of the King of Hell, would she have ended up like those girls?
Thinking of this, Qin Yunie felt a little scared.
Meng Po didn't notice her abnormality. Instead, she stared at the thief with sharp eyes and asked a few pointed questions at this time, "Since you said you followed him there once, how come you don't know the exact location? How did you follow a mysterious master to his secret base without being discovered?"
He opened his mouth, his voice a little hoarse, as if he was trying hard to restrain something. He slowly said, "It was because I happened to have an invisibility talisman in my hand at the time. The master had set up the Bagua formation in that area. Perhaps he was extremely confident in himself and knew that no one could break his formation, so he didn't notice me following him in. I also looked for it based on my memory afterwards, but I came back empty-handed."
Meng Po frowned upon hearing this, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion and suspicion, but she continued to ask: "Since you know that he did this kind of thing, why did you still help him?"
He lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then raised his head, a trace of pain flashing in his eyes, "Because, I have no choice. He put a drug in my body. If I don't take the antidote on time, my whole body will fester and the pain will be unbearable until I die."
