Chapter 517 36 The Origin of Soul Sacrifice (6)

"This girl's name is Lin Jiu, and she was born in a mountain village 13 miles outside Xuzhou City on "Henan Road".

Since the establishment of the "Neighborhood Inspection System", our Legalist instructors have joined forces with the Shushan and Kunlun Sword Sects to kill many ancient monsters hidden among the people.

This girl was originally very safe, because 5 years later we learned that her entire village, all 76 households, had been bribed by the Illuminati.

But there is no airtight wall in the world!

The Illuminati can buy off a village and officials, but it cannot buy off all the residents of a state capital!

The powerful "neighborhood inspection system" still allows the existence of girls to be leaked.

In the second year of Yuanhe, a group of merchants passing by the village to sell dates chose to sleep outside the mountain village. At night, an idle man working as a date seller sneaked into the village. He originally wanted to steal two chickens to eat. Unexpectedly, after jumping into a farmhouse, he suddenly saw water vapor coming out of the window in a room.

The idle man originally thought that this was a lady or young lady taking a bath. He just got closer to the glass and unexpectedly saw a few blond and blue-eyed mysterious people writing complex magic circles on the back of a girl!

Although the idle man does not know a lot of Chinese characters, he has been in casinos and wine shops all year round, and he has heard a lot of stories from storytellers.

The appearance of Westerners in a wilderness mountain village is already completely weird. The formation they drew on the girl's back is more like the coming ceremony of the evil god described by storytellers!

Therefore, Xianhan did not stay or even return to the team. He returned to Xuzhou covered with stars and moonlight and reported the whole incident to the prefect of Xuzhou.

This idle man's luck is really good. He caught up with the old magistrate who had just resigned and the new magistrate had only taken over the court for two days.

The Illuminati hasn't had time to bribe him yet!

The trusted prefect of Xuzhou was named ‘Xie Baogen’. He comes from a rough background, is decisive in killing, and is well versed in the skills to deal with such strange things.

He did not choose to alert the enemy, but sent a legalist action team to observe secretly for a few days. After discovering that it was indeed true, he still didn't say anything, but found his mistress, a "witch" who once believed in King Xin!

Relying on the Vulcan Cult's "Witch's Dream", Xie Baogen discovered the secret hidden in the villagers' minds!

This girl has been valued by Westerners since before she was born. They gave the girl's biological parents a large amount of gold and silver, and drew complex formations on the girl's back on the second day after she was born.

This painting lasted for 5 years.

Mr. Loki, you don't need to look at me like that. I am still in the awkward stage of "voting for the Illuminati", so I don't know what the purpose of this formation is.

But there is no doubt that this is an ominous sign

Because Westerners will not waste such huge manpower and material resources for no reason to do an insignificant thing!

The advice given by the instructor is based on secret observation and must not be taken off guard. Therefore, the entire action team never went deep into the village until the girl slowly grew up to the age of 5, and she began to draw unfamiliar characters and speak an unfamiliar language.

The Illuminati suddenly decided to transport her away, and the mentors knew that the time was ripe to close the net! "

What happened next profoundly demonstrated the power and forbearance of the Legalist school before Loki's eyes.

According to the general routine, after the political party that rules a country discovers a secret society lurking within the country, after a long enough period of observation, they will inevitably capture them all with thunderous means.

What followed was a routine of torture, interrogation, and exposure of accomplices.

However, the brain circuits of Legalist teachers seem to be inherently different from ordinary people. When they discovered that the "Illuminati" had hundreds of people lurking inside the Tang Dynasty for a long time, and the only task of these hundreds of people was to transport a 5-year-old girl out of the country

Concubine Xue's superior, the Legalist tutor code-named "Old Madam", keenly sensed a hint of something abnormal.

First of all, there are no less than a hundred state nobles in this hidden line!

They traveled frequently to various prefectures every day, and even if they encountered military disasters and cholera, they still did not dare to delay their work.

This is enough to show that this ignorant girl with a humble appearance has great value in this gang.

Secondly, the Illuminati's secret agents take this action very seriously.

They invested a lot of manpower and material resources without asking for money or information. Their purpose was just to smuggle a girl out of the country.

In the era of Tang Xuanzong's rule sixty years ago, they could have done this kind of thing at will. However, since Li Chun, Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty, came to power, his success in reducing vassal states in successive years made him begin to pay more and more attention to the contribution of the Legalist school.

With the support of the two major governance concepts of "victory of the people" and "control of the people", the Tang State stepped up its investigation of every treaty port.

Except for caravans with official travel certificates printed on them, any traveling merchants passing through treaty ports, whether by land or water, will undergo extremely strict inspections.

The Illuminati members had been planning for a year simply trying to transport the girl across the country.

A year later, the method they came up with was also very desperate.

They first found a Nascent Soul sword cultivator.

Then he spent a huge amount of money to find a Mohist disciple who was good at "Mokist Puppetry" and built a precise puppet of the same size as the sword cultivator in proportion.

Before clearing the level, the puppet opens its hollow abdomen so that the girl can hide inside the puppet's body.

As for dealing with the interrogation, the "Nascent Soul" of the Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator temporarily separated from the body and hid in the wooden body of the puppet. Through the separation of the soul of a powerful sword cultivator, the girl was successfully transported out of the country.

**

It is not uncommon for Western profiteers to smuggle Tang women out of the country during the war.

This is mainly because the Tang Dynasty in the East never sells women. The Tang merchants are used to riding on the necks of foreign races and doing good deeds. Residents of other countries also want to try the taste of Tang women, so illegal traders will take risks from time to time.

However, even if Yang Yuhuan was reborn, it would be too grand to use such a large hand to transport a weak girl out of the customs.

The "old procuress" has been doing intelligence work all her life, so she has a very keen sense of smell for this seemingly ordinary little thing.

She decided to do the opposite.

The "old procuress" formulated the following plan for the three-person team of Concubine Xue under her command.

First of all, this secret passage of the Illuminati must not be kept for long. If she delayed, something might happen. She immediately mobilized all her troops and captured all the Illuminati members whose identities were known within her sight.

Regardless of their rank or position, they were all executed on the spot, and the cause of their death was covered up by the excuse of "acute illness".

As for the girl who had just been shipped out of the country, the Illuminati also sent the Legalist Action Team to hijack the mysterious cargo code-named "Soul Sacrifice" to bring the girl back.

Afterwards, through severe torture and extremely sophisticated interrogation methods, the madam successfully asked the caravan that their action goal was to send the soul sacrifice to the northern continent.

She took the opportunity to stuff the girl to a chamber of commerce called "Hengcheng" that was responsible for the desert route of the northern continent.

The next step is the essence of the whole operation.

The madam instructed Concubine Xue, who had been hiding in the shadows for a long time, to surrender to the Illuminati!

Don't you like to develop peripheral members among the top officials of various major countries?

Very good, I'll give you one.

At this point, Concubine Xue finally came out of the shadows.

**

The reason why the madam chose Concubine Xue was because of three considerations.

First, Concubine Xue's personal ability is very strong. She assisted Emperor Xianzong of Tang in reducing the power of the feudal lords, and the several assassination missions she completed were still impeccable no matter how critically she looked at them.

Second, Concubine Xue's age is very confusing.

This assassin with a delicate mind but experienced skills is only 20 years old. Even in the Assassin Academy, many instructors do not believe that these brilliant achievements are from Concubine Xue.

They prefer to believe that the madam or Tang Qianye is behind her.

The most important thing is her low-key personality.

The only one who knows about Concubine Xue's existence is the Legalist Assassin Academy in the mountains.

Out of the mountains, even most of the Legalist politicians active around Emperor Xianzong of Tang are completely unaware of her existence.

Being a rookie and keeping a low profile, she never actively sought fame and fortune, but honestly fulfilled her duties as an assassin.

Even for a disciple of the Legalists, this is still a rare quality.

Therefore, the "madam" placed a heavy bet on Concubine Xue. She promoted Concubine Xue to 12 levels for the first time and directly granted her the position of "Tang Envoy".

This is extremely rare when the Legalists dominated and the entire country was almost closed.

After arriving in the Western Continent, the two secretly entered the city of Paris and tried to form an alliance with Loki, but were ruthlessly driven out of the castle.

The madam took advantage of the situation and immediately let Concubine Xue join the Illuminati.

With the fall of Mutu, the "King of the Earth Sea", the remaining 11 masters could not establish a combat force that could be used at will in the Mediterranean business circle for a period of time.

Under internal and external troubles, and with the soul sacrifice just lost, the Illuminati would love to have a peripheral member like Concubine Xue!

However, simply having a conflict with Loki is not enough to explain the problem.

Submitting a pledge of allegiance is still an indispensable means.

The first task assigned to Concubine Xue by the Illuminati is to let her take back the soul sacrifice in the hands of the "Hengcheng". She must have the determination to "slaughter her own people" before she can be allowed to join the association.

In this way, there was the scene that Loki saw in the desert after waking up.

Concubine Xue tended to "New Moon Trading Company" to eat the black, slaughter and rob the "Hengcheng".

This was originally an impeccable action plan.

What the "Illuminati" needs, Concubine Xue's mind is as clear as a mirror. What they need is a strong hidden stake that can mobilize sufficient social resources.

After submitting the pledge of allegiance, Concubine Xue still needs to continue to use the name of "Tang Envoy" to serve the Illuminati. Therefore, she cannot do it herself and must rely on outsiders.

In this way, the Illuminati can first see whether she has enough resources to mobilize.

Secondly, it can also see clearly whether this person is as smart as she appears.

After all, the Illuminati does not keep idle people, let alone fools.

However, everything has its surprises. The uncertain factor "Loki" suddenly entered the scene and snatched away the precious "soul sacrifice".

Xue Fei, who was lurking in Memphis waiting for the result, knew that she had to make a decision immediately.

Loki Starrag had the terrifying name of "God Killer", and he killed Mutu, the "King of Earthsea", one of the 12 leaders of the Illuminati, in front of millions of people.

It is extremely irrational to fight him.

But at the same time, it is equally important to complete the lurking mission set by the Legalist School!

The Legalist School has already invested so much manpower and material resources in this undercover operation.

If I can become a nail in the Illuminati, I will make a huge contribution to the stability of the country.

Concubine Xue doesn't have much time left.

Her brain has been working fast all night, and when the sky is turning pale, she decides to use the most primitive method to achieve her goal.

Tell the truth.

Drag all the plans I have made to Loki in exchange for his joining and support.

This seems to be very risky, but if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find the hidden logic.

First of all, Loki, who killed Mutu, the "King of Earthsea" in public, must be the mortal enemy of the Illuminati.

The enemy of the enemy may not be a friend, but at least he is not an enemy. Even if he cannot return the "soul sacrifice" to himself for the time being, he will not leak the secrets he told him.

Secondly, the mission given to her by the Illuminati was to deliver soul sacrifices to the Temple of Anubis, where there would be Styx priests who would contact her.

As long as the transformation with the Styx priests was completed, her mission would be completed.

Although she had only met Loki once, and the experience of that meeting was far from pleasant, Concubine Xue still chose to believe in his character.

She chose to believe that when he heard the complete truth from her, he would continue to fight against the all-powerful Illuminati as usual.

She held her breath and waited for his answer slowly.
