The sound is like a bamboo stick struck by a watchman at night, crisp and sweet, two short and one long, full of rhythm.

The Earth Emperor's coffin was originally filled with chaotic, sharp, and piercing screams, but the sound of banging, which seemed neither heavy nor high, was clearly heard by everyone.

Because the sound of banging did not ring in their ears, but in their minds.

An invisible terror shrouded everyone's hearts.

Even those faces stopped screaming.

"he came……"

"he came……"

The next moment, those faces all screamed, and their voices seemed to be filled with endless panic and fear.

"Bang...bang...bangbang..."

At this time, the banging sound started again. Compared with the previous sound, this time the banging sound was a bit louder.

It was as if something was getting closer to them.

"This is the soul collector. If you don't want to die, please go back to your room. You are not allowed to move or speak. Hurry!"

Huo Linglong seemed to have remembered something and roared anxiously, no longer as delicate and charming as before.

While talking, Huo Linglong had already hid in a nearby room.

When Huo Linglong's voice sounded, Ye Qing had already grabbed Yipou's shoulders, rolled into a room, and closed the door.

His mental power may be stronger than that of everyone present, so as soon as the bang sounded, he felt unparalleled fear and trembling in his soul.

Therefore, I had already taken Yipo along with me and quietly stood at the door of a room.

Therefore, their speed is not slower than Huo Linglong.

The others also woke up from a dream and rushed towards the room.

"Go away"

Yue Juejiang did not dare to neglect, he bent his legs straight, and with a soft bang, he rushed towards a room on the left like an arrow, knocking several people along the way to the ground.

"Bang...bang...bangbang..."

At this time, the third burst of bangs sounded. The moment the bangs sounded, the two people who had not had time to hide in the room suddenly stopped in place as if they had been cast on a body-fixing technique.

The ball of flesh on the ground that was screaming and running wildly into the distance suddenly stopped and stopped screaming.

Inside the Earth Emperor's coffin, it was as quiet as death for an instant.

An old man with a stooped figure and shabby clothes walked out of the darkness with a bamboo box in his hand.

The old man is very old, with gray hair and age spots on his face;

The old man is very thin, with protruding cheekbones and bony bones;

The old man was very shabby, wearing coarse linen and ragged clothes.

Just like all the old people who have been bent down by life, the old man bent his waist and lowered his head. Every step he took was very slow and every step he took was very heavy.

There is an abyss behind you and despair in front of you.

Therefore, the old man's eyes are filled with endless sackcloth and unkindness.

When the old man walked slowly, a burst of darkness spread behind the old man.

endless;

Profound and boundless.

In the darkness, there are countless souls struggling and wailing, but they are silent.

When the old man passed by the two men who had not had time to hide in the room, a touch of illusory soul floated out from the two men and disappeared into the darkness.

The old man passed by the man and when he walked to the meat ball, the soul of the person whose neck was broken by Yue Juejiang floated out of the meat ball, the soul of the woman floated out, and the souls of the other two people floated out.

Four strands of soul were swallowed up by darkness one after another.

The old man seemed to have no feeling, and continued to walk forward slowly, surrounded by endless darkness.

In the darkness, there was only the sound of clappers, two long and one short, sounding slowly and slowly;

Only wisps of soul floated out from the room;

There are only countless souls, wailing and struggling, but silently.

…

Inside the room, Ye Qing and Yipou were leaning against the corner, their faces pale and motionless. They didn't even dare to breathe louder.

As if, a wooden man.

Even though he couldn't see the situation outside, Ye Qing could still feel an unspeakable fear and palpitations.

That kind of terror made his whole body stiff;

That kind of palpitations made his soul tremble;

He had only experienced this feeling from two monsters, one was the terrifying existence that destroyed Junshan Village;

One was summoned by Lu Luo and almost destroyed the Youzhu of Luoshui County.

At that time, he was still very weak, and the feeling those two beings gave him was as vast as the sky and the earth.

Now, he is ten times and a hundred times stronger than before, but in front of these existences, he still feels so powerless and helpless, just like an ant.

After an unknown amount of time, the suffocating and shuddering atmosphere outside the house slowly disappeared. Ye Qing and Yi Pou were slumped on the ground like two puddles of mud.

The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but smile, their faces showing the joy of surviving the disaster.

After calming down for a while, Ye Qing looked at Yipin and said, "Brother, what was that just now?"

Yipou touched the sweat on his forehead and said slowly: "That's the soul collector."

"Soul collector?" Ye Qing shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of it.

"Little brother, have you ever heard of a watchman?" Yipo asked.

Ye Qing rolled his eyes, this is nonsense, who doesn't know how to call the watchman?

"The watchman here is not the watchman there." Yipo guessed Ye Qing's thoughts and said with a smile: "Old Taoist, I'm not talking about the watchmen who patrol the streets at night to remind people to be careful of candles, but the big watchmen.

Yan’s watchman organization.”

"Oh, you are talking about Dayan's watchman." Ye Qing suddenly realized that Dayan's watchman, Dawei's night watchman, Daqi's Demon Suppression Division, and Dachu's Jing'an Guard are all the same.

It is a court agency and mysterious organization that is in charge of strange affairs in the country.

"The name of Dayan's watchmen is said to have been passed down to the lineage of watchmen in ancient times."

Yipou slowly said: "In ancient times, weird things were rampant and demons were raging, so the watchmen organization was born. The watchmen walked in the dark, patrolled the night, killed monsters and monsters, and protected the peace of the people."

"In ancient times, the leader of the watchmen was the Emperor of the Earth, and the soul collector, according to legend, was the deputy leader of the watchmen. He was loyal to the Emperor of the Earth. After the Emperor of the Earth died, he voluntarily was buried in the coffin of the Emperor of the Earth.

Keep vigil for the Earth Emperor."

"The Soul Collector is the most terrifying existence in the Earth Emperor's coffin besides the Earth Emperor. Whenever strange creatures dare to disturb the place where the Earth Emperor rests, the Soul Collector will appear and take away their souls."

"It should be that Yue Juejiang made too much noise earlier and we stayed outside for a long time, which is why the soul collectors were attracted."

"Then why did he let us go?" Ye Qing was puzzled. He didn't believe that such a broken room could block that terrifying existence.

"The Soul Collectors guard the place where the Earth Emperor rests, and no one is allowed to desecrate it. If there are noisy or restless creatures when he appears, the Soul Collectors will regard it as an act of blasphemy against the Earth Emperor and collect his soul.

." Yipou explained.

"So, whenever the soul collector appears, as long as we don't speak or move around, nothing will happen?" Ye Qing was stunned. No wonder Yipo immediately told him not to talk after they entered the room.

Don't move.

Huo Linglong seemed to have said something similar.

"You can say that." Yipin said.

"Then why did you hide in the room?" Ye Qing was puzzled.

"Little brother, are you stupid?" Yipou glanced sideways at Ye Qing: "Of course it's because of safety."

"Soul collectors are powerful people in ancient times. Just a wisp of their aura can damage people's minds and souls at the least, and may cause mental collapse and spiritual annihilation in severe cases. These rooms are made of special stone.

Made of it, it can isolate the soul collector's aura and pressure to a certain extent, making it safer."

Okay, that's the truth.
