Penetrating darkness and chaos, Du Kang's will descended into a body under the guidance of inexplicable power.
A copy of the body's vision was automatically transmitted to Du Kang's consciousness. The sound of heavy footsteps wearing heavy armor echoed in the cave. Du Kang immediately realized that Li Ergou was lying in the cave under Xiaoyao Tower.
From the corner of Li Ergou's eyes, he could see that the twelve graves piled on the ground had been dug up, and the ice corpses inside were being carried out by the shrimp soldiers.
A woman with a soft appearance and cool clothes squatted beside Li Ergou. A ball of crimson light shone on his chest in her hand. The broken bone that had been broken and pierced into the organs was moving back to its correct position at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Heals quickly.
Xiaomei, who had once borrowed clothes from Du Kang, was now kneeling in front of the middle-aged Mr. Shanda, wearing a random piece of clothing, crying bitterly and saying that she didn't know anything.
"Really? But my people saw that someone held Chai Guiling in your face and then calmly killed a city patrol officer and escaped calmly. So do you think I should believe you or me?
A subordinate?"
"Young Master, believe me. If I had that kind of ability, I wouldn't be able to be a brothel girl. It's really not me."
Xiaomei knelt on the ground and wanted to go forward and pull Sheng Zongye's trousers down. The Sheng family had always behaved brutally and cruelly. She was afraid that she would be beaten to death if she soiled the nobleman's clothes, so she could only kneel there with her butt raised and kept begging.
A moment of silence.
"What you said makes sense, so I'll give you a chance."
Sheng Zongye's gentle voice continued to come from above his head.
How could Master Shanda be persuaded so easily? This made Xiaomei feel ecstatic at first, and then she looked up in disbelief.
ah--
Piercing screams resounded in the cave.
Li Ergou, who was lying dead on the spot, saw from the corner of his eye that the shadow created by Sheng Zongye's body blocked the firelight shining on Xiao Mei. With a gentle smile on his face, he pierced the vajra in his hand.
Xiaomei's head was right where she raised her head.
Tonghua's vajra made of fine gold was beyond the capabilities of a mortal skull. The spikes at one end of the vajra were embedded deeply into Xiaomei's forehead like thorns.
Xiaomei was not dead for a moment, milky white liquid seeped out from the gaps in the wound. In pain and despair, the muscles on her face twisted and twitched, her two eyes moved randomly and randomly, and her whole body swayed slightly.
A trail of warm liquid was left between his legs, and he was unable to control all the organs in his body before he died.
"Mortals are so ugly. They can't even control their own urine when they die. I really don't want to deal with you, Amitabhavi... broken soul."
While chanting the mantra, Sheng Zongye turned the vajra twice in the wound until the vajra in his hand suddenly sank and then he pulled it out suddenly.
Xiaomei's corpse, which was still twitching subconsciously, collapsed to the ground, but her illusory and abnormal soul was pulled away from the body. The sharp spikes of the vajra were nailed to the soul's forehead, making it impossible for her to break away from the constraints of this magical weapon.
.
Click, click...
The handle of the vajra began to rotate, and the wheel with the talismans engraved on it began to emit a subtle golden light, like a delicate millstone. Xiao Mei's soul screamed and was sucked into it as the wheel turned, grinding it into fine particles.
of powder.
The soul powder containing a mortal's lifelong memories and beliefs was filtered layer by layer by the wheel, and finally only a tiny bit fell out from the back end of the vajra, flying in the air like a firefly, and was then swallowed by Sheng Zongye.
The memories of the last few days of Xiaomei's life flashed through Sheng Zongye's mind like a revolving lantern, nothing more than picking up guests day after day, showing off in bed and pretending to be in love.
Experiencing the life of a kiln sister from a first-person perspective made Sheng Zongye extremely uncomfortable. He quickly scrolled through the last few guests and fixed the picture on the skinny man who stretched out a finger to point at Zhongxiao Meishan's acupuncture point and looked at the man's face repeatedly.
Appearance and clothing.
After exiting Xiao Mei's memory, Sheng Zongye moved a few steps in the cave and came to a long-dead male corpse next to Xiao Mei's body.
The appearance of the corpse was exactly the same as what he saw in his memory. Even every stain and wrinkle on the skin was exactly the same. The only difference might be that the corpse was not wearing clothes.
"Have his clothes been found?"
"Reporting to the eldest son, we have searched Xiaoyao Building and interrogated everyone in the building. No one has seen his clothes. Moreover, the identity of this person has also been found. He is the third son of a moderately wealthy family in Ruyifang.
Master, my subordinates have taken all his family members here, do you want to interrogate me now?"
A tall demon who was much taller than the surrounding shrimp soldiers, with a red body, a pair of human legs, four pairs of arms, and a shrimp head on his head, came forward to report to Sheng Zong Yehui.
"No, if you think about it, you will know that they are either changing their appearance or controlling the puppet remotely. These two people are of little value. Let's go see the shopkeeper of Xiaoyao Building."
Sheng Zongye walked towards Li Ergou. At this time, the seriously injured Li Ergou had been treated by the woman beside him and recovered. He immediately rolled and crawled to the ground on all fours in front of Sheng Zongye, crying with tears in his eyes.
"Master Shanda, you have to make the decision for my boss. The boss came back from a serious injury last night and was hiding underground to recuperate. Unexpectedly, a woman who transformed into Xiaomei forced her way in late at night and wanted to take the boss's life. Unfortunately, the boss was seriously injured and could not be defeated.
I escaped all the way to the backyard but still couldn't escape the vicious hands of the evil thief, so... I just left."
Li Ergou looked sad and showed no pretense. He kept kowtowing to Sheng Zongye as he spoke, looking like a loyal servant.
"Let me ask you, when Chai Guiling came back from serious injury last night, was he still wearing the tortoise shell on his back?"
Sheng Zongye's voice was still gentle, and even his tone of voice was completely the same as when he killed Xiaomei.
Sheng Zongye's emotions could not be heard from his words alone, but this did not affect Li Ergou's acting skills. After hearing this question, he was stunned for a moment before answering.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "No... no, the boss only had a snake body when he came back. I didn't see the big turtle shell that he carried all year round."
"That's it. Chai Guiling is about to die of old age, which also means that his turtle shell is about to mature. I was busy making preparations in the Shenbing workshop yesterday and didn't pay attention to what was going on outside. General Xia, in or outside the city yesterday
Is there any unrest?"
Li Ergou's answer narrowed the target range, and Sheng Zongye looked at General Xia beside him.
"Canglan City is vast, and there is never a day of complete peace. Yesterday, six monster murders and 18 human murders occurred in our jurisdiction alone. There were also two murders more than ten miles south of the city.
The battle. In one of the places, there was a lot of noise. According to eyewitnesses, a huge water ball appeared, followed by a violent explosion. Someone once saw Xue Yingjun of Xinglong Company riding a three-headed demon dog rushing to that battlefield.
.”
Hearing this, Sheng Zongye raised his brows. As the half-owner of Canglan City, he was one of the top three members of the Sheng family, so he naturally knew the power controlled by various forces in the city.
"If I guessed correctly, the so-called big water ball should be Chai Guiling's Haiyuan God-suppressing Formation, and the violent explosion should be the three-headed demon dog's Samadhi True Fire. Xue Yingjun? He dares to hit my Sheng family
It seems that I have to go see him."
There is naturally a reason why Chai Guiling can live peacefully in Canglan City for hundreds of years. If the Sheng family had not taken a fancy to his turtle shell when they first established themselves here and had been secretly protecting him, Chai Guiling alone would have been
How could someone who was so weak in his early years survive to this day?
Hundreds of years of cultivating demonic power and training in human hearts were cut off at the moment when the magic weapon was about to be forged. Especially when there were no high-level monks in Xinglong Company, how could the Sheng family be able to swallow this sigh of relief?
.
Sheng Zongye turned around and walked out of the cave, but stopped after taking a few steps and turned to look at Li Ergou who was lying on the ground and kowtowing.
"I almost forgot, there is also a loyal dog of Chai Guiling here. What you just heard is too much, but you are so loyal, so for you to accompany Chai Guiling, it should be the same for you.
It’s a good thing.”
When Li Ergou heard the second half of the sentence, he raised his head with horror on his face and wanted to say something, but the woman beside him who had just treated him simply stretched out her finger, and his bones and muscles suddenly stiffened.
Maybe Li Ergou's acting skills are very good, but the current situation is no longer within his control.
No matter how many words he had in his heart that he couldn't say out loud, and how desperately he secretly begged Du Kang for help, Li Ergou couldn't move his body. He could only stare at the Vajra in Sheng Zongye's hand, stabbing involuntarily.
Into the top of his head.
Du Kang, who was leaning over, could only intercept the sensory information of his shadow puppets. He was unable to provide more power support and could only watch this scene helplessly.
After the divine weapon entered the brain, the power of soul-seizing was activated, and the brain was broken into small pieces like stirred tofu. Li Ergou's Yin Shen, which was more condensed than the soul of a mortal, was extracted from the sea of consciousness.
The severe pain was transmitted to Du Kang across the street through the magic connection, causing him to frown and subconsciously press his temples to relieve the pain.
There was a pop.
This is the sound of the vajra being pulled away.
As Li Ergou's Yin Shen was pulled out, Du Kang, who was leaning over, felt Li Ergou's vision spinning. After falling into the toilet, his vision stabilized again, and he saw the handsome middle-aged man Sheng Zongye again.
A handsome face with a smile.
The wheel on the vajra started to rotate, and Li Ergou's Yin Shen immediately fell into it, crushing it into fine powder like rounds of millstones.
A moment later, Sheng Zongye swallowed Li Ergou's memories of the last ten days as usual, and the memory scenes that flashed through them made him smile meaningfully.
"This person is actually controlled by the man who killed Chai Guiling. It's such a secretive technique. If I hadn't looked at his memory, I would have been hard-pressed to detect it."
Sheng Zongye lifted up Li Ergou's body and found that there was no shadow of this man under the flickering light of the torch.
"Being controlled by someone, there is no shadow after death. It looks a bit like a shadow. This is a technique that can be obtained by practicing the Yin Shen method. The person who controls him is a master who practices the Yin Shen method."
Except for the Yin Shen's exit from the body, the rest of the Yin Shen's spells are randomly obtained. However, as long as there are more people who practice any spell, some records will be handed down. Later generations will summarize these spells and discover the Yin Shen's method.
There are probably hundreds of common spells available, tens of thousands of rare ones, and more isolated spells that are too numerous to count.
One of the rarer ones is to follow you like a shadow. The charming woman next to Sheng Zongye majors in Yin Shen magic. She can guess the enemy's ability just by seeing the form of the magic.
Sheng Zongye recalled the scenes he saw in Li Ergou's memory and said to himself thoughtfully.
"There are not many monks who major in Yin Shen Dharma, but there are only a few who can practice to a high level. Such people's lives are very expensive, how can they be sent out to assassinate them?"
Thinking of this, Sheng Zongye glanced at the woman next to him who had a monthly salary of fifty thousand taels, and began to worry about other things.
"Xue Yingjun, and the woman who changed her appearance, could they be the same group of people? More and more people are peeking at the Sheng family's wealth. When did it start? It seems to be the mysterious death of the sixth brother.
After finding the murderer at sea, it seems that the Sheng family needs to show its strength again, so let's start with Xinglong Company..."
In the flickering light of the torch, Sheng Zongye turned around and led the team out of the underground cave, leaving only a dozen cold or warm bodies still here, and no one paid attention to them anymore.
…
The signal connecting Du Kang and Li Ergou was directly interrupted.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Before that, the last scene Du Kang saw was the layers of wheels that were constantly crushing Li Ergou's Yinshen. The last feeling was only his whole body
The ultimate pain of being completely crushed.
Rubbing his forehead with some residual phantom pain, Du Kang no longer had any hope that Li Ergou could keep the secret, because when the vajra pierced Li Ergou's head, he also successfully obtained the magic weapon.
information.
[Name]: Soul-catching Vajra
Grade: middle to lower grade
characteristic:
Soul-pulling: Pierce into the brain of a living being, it can pull out the living soul and crush it, extract the living memory and view it at will.
Fine gold breaks demons: It penetrates into the brain of a creature, and there is a small probability that it can wake up the possessed person and bring him back to consciousness.
Shadow Puppet can gain the loyalty of shadow puppets and control their actions, but it cannot protect their memories. Mr. Shanda must have seen all the memories of Li Ergou being controlled and his subsequent acting.
With the death of Li Ergou, the shadow fragment that Du Kang used to create shadow puppets also disappeared forever. This was also the biggest shortcoming of the shadow puppets. When Du Kang used all the shadows to create shadow puppets one day, and they were all killed
Finally, Du Kang will lose all his shadow forever.
"According to Master Sheng, he wants to trouble Xue Yingjun. I wonder if he changed his mind after realizing that Li Ergou was being manipulated?"
He picked up the lid of the tea bowl on the table with two fingers and slowly flicked the tea leaves floating in the tea bowl. Du Kang did not drink, but quietly watched the steam rising from the tea until he haggled with the shopkeeper on the counter for a long time.
When Qingdai came back, he put down the things in his hands.
"Sir, I have already bought the things. In addition to the Black Demon, this family also has a copy of the blood essence of the great demon Yunlong, so I bought it directly."
Qingdai held two beads, one large and one small, in her arms and showed Du Kang what she had bought.
They are a head-sized glass bead with dense talismans engraved on the outside, a cloud of ink-colored smoke sealed inside, and a large demon-refining bead, with a mass of gaseous blood essence inside that changes in appearance like a white cloud.
If you just go out to buy something, you can encounter the extremely rare blood of a dragon-type great fairy. Du Kang would never believe it if Qingdai didn't ask about it in advance.
But since he had promised Qingdai to buy whatever she wanted, Du Kang didn't take this little thought to heart. He just rubbed her head and waited for her to put the glass beads that couldn't be included in the space equipment in a black bag.
The people walked outside the pawn shop together.
When they came to the street, all the soldiers outside Xiaoyao Tower had withdrawn as Master Sheng left. Only then did Du Kang remember that he still didn't know Master Sheng's name.
"Qingdai, what is the name of the eldest son of the Sheng family?"
"Sir, Qingdai remembers that his name seems to be Sheng Zongye..."
