He and Guo Ziyi were tied to two thick wooden stakes. The two wooden stakes were stuck in the ground, surrounded by dark walls. It seemed to be a very large room. Several huge braziers were placed along the walls of the room, illuminating the room.
"This lady, why did you take our clothes and tie us to the pillar? Looking straight at us like this, could it be that you want to…"
Guo Ziyi's heart skipped a beat when she heard Li Bai's words." As expected of the Immortal Poet. Even at this time, his imagination was still so rich. He could also imagine some scenes...
" Hehehe…" The purple-robed woman covered her mouth and chuckled. Her eyes lit up, and her laughter contained a trace of evil.
"Looking at the two of you, I really want to. " However…" The purple-robed woman didn't hide anything and said directly. Her tone carried a trace of pity.
" This month happens to be the Fiendish Moon, and the Tuoluo Fiend needs a blood sacrifice. Otherwise, I'll have to pluck the two of you…" After saying that, the purple-robed woman smiled evilly.
"Tuoluo Fiend? You're from the Six Demons Hall!" Li Bai said in shock.
The one-eared man flashed out and shouted at Li Bai,""You bastard who doesn't know death! This is the Hall Master of the Tuoluo Hall of our Six Demons Hall. This time, he will personally send you to your deaths!”
Guo Ziyi ignored him. She turned to Li Bai and asked,""Six Demons Hall, Tuo Luo Hall, what do you mean?”
Li Bai pretended that there was no one in front of him and replied directly,""This Six Demons Hall is an evil cult. It worships the Six Fiends in the sky. They are Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong, and Di Jie. The Six Demons Hall had a total of six hall masters, each leading a hall corresponding to the six fiend stars. This Tuo Luo Hall was one of the Six Demons Hall.”
These six auspicious and six evil were related terms in Ziwei Doushu. Guo Ziyi didn't understand what they meant, but she understood that the Six Evil Hall was a cult organization formed by six leaders. This woman was one of the six leaders and also the person in charge of one of the branches.
"I, Purple Mist Luo, pay my respects to the commandant.”After Li Bai introduced the Six Demons Hall and the Tuoluo Hall to her, the purple-robed woman bowed to Guo Ziyi and threw him a devilish look.
Guo Ziyi was stunned. She suddenly remembered that her clothes had been taken off and that she had Commandant Guo Yi's waist token and official plate in her arms. From this, the woman knew her identity.
"Since you know that I'm Commandant Guo Yi of the Imperial Court, hurry up and untie us! Do you know what the crime of kidnapping and assaulting an officer of the imperial court is?”Guo Ziyi shouted. He knew very well that this was the reason why he had been sentenced to death.
"The blood of a soldier is extremely masculine and is most suitable for offering to the Tuoluo Fiend. It wasn't easy for me to get it. How can I let you two go so easily?”Purple Mist Luo laughed sinisterly.
"Blood…sacrifice…what do you want to do?”Guo Ziyi was shocked.
"The two of you will know at midnight tonight. There's less than two hours left. Let's go down and make some preparations. The two of you should rest and recover your spirits so that you can meet our Tuo Luo Fiend in a while.”After saying that, Purple Mist Luo chuckled and left the room with her subordinates.
The door was locked from the outside, leaving only Guo Ziyi and Li Bai in the room.
Li Bai turned to Guo Ziyi and laughed.""I didn't expect that the oath of brotherhood between us would be fulfilled so soon. We will die on the same day, same month, and same year.”
Guo Ziyi rolled her eyes at him. She didn't know if her brother was drunk or poisoned. She said,"Brother, don't say that. We won't die yet.”
" What?" Li Bai's eyes flashed." Brother, do you have a way to escape?"”
As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Ziyi's body slowly rose up. It turned out that he was using his arms and feet to clamp the wooden stake behind him. He used strength to coordinate with each other, twisting his waist and abdomen to climb up.
It didn't take long for Guo Ziyi's arms to be lifted from the top of the wooden stake. He twisted his arms behind his back for a while, and somehow, the rope around his wrist broke free and fell to the ground. Guo Ziyi bent down and quickly untied the rope around her feet.
Guo Ziyi's body fell to the ground, and her hands and feet were slightly numb. She looked up at Li Bai and smiled slightly, moving her hands and feet.
Li Bai was pleasantly surprised and praised,"Brother, you have good skills!"”
As an elite soldier of the Foreign Legion, Guo Ziyi had been trained to break free after being tied up. He had used it many times in simulation exercises and actual combat. It was not difficult for him to break free from the binding method of the Six Demons Hall.
"Hurry up and untie me too!" Li Bai looked at Guo Ziyi and said.
"Big brother, wait a moment. I'll go find a guy.”Guo Ziyi searched the room and found that her and Li Bai's clothes and belongings were placed on a shelf in the room. Guo Ziyi found the knife, took it out, and ran to Li Bai.
Guo Ziyi was about to cut the rope with a knife when she suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the door. Guo Ziyi was shocked. He immediately crossed his hands and feet and buckled them on the wooden stake. He hid the knife behind his back. From the front, he looked no different from being tied to the wooden stake.
The door opened and Purple Mist Luo brought six people into the room before locking the door. These six people wore brown robes and hats, their expressions solemn.
Two of them were carrying a purplish-black jar with a gold lid. They respectfully placed it in the middle of the room.
"It's about time to invite the Tuoluo Fiend.”Purple Mist Luo said softly.
Two purple-robed men stood in front of the black jar, mumbling something that seemed to be some kind of talisman.
The golden lid on the jar was pushed open, and a black, bowl-sized snake slowly poked its head out of the jar.
The snake's head was triangular, and there was a thin red line between its eyes. The snake's eyes were also blood-red, and it looked abnormally ferocious. The snake opened its mouth, and a forked blood-red forked tongue stuck out. It made a sizzling sound, and its blood-red snake eyes stared at Guo Ziyi and Li Bai.
Guo Ziyi was shocked. Judging from the triangular shape of the snake's head, it should be a poisonous snake. However, Guo Ziyi knew that poisonous snakes in nature were not big, and huge pythons were not poisonous. Such a venomous snake had grown into the size of a python. It was truly rare!
This giant venomous snake was the Tuoluo Fiend that Purple Mist Luo had mentioned.
Purple Mist Luo took a wooden box from a brown-robed man. After opening it, she took out a golden booklet.
Purple Smoke Luo opened the booklet and began to recite. The pronunciation did not sound like an incantation, nor did it sound like Chinese, but like a foreign language.
After the Purple Smoke Luo finished reading, it gently closed the little golden book. The giant snake's head shook a few times before it lowered itself. Then, its entire body crawled out of the jar.
