As soon as he heard the word "spiritual cultivation", the young man's face changed. He was not excited, but turned pale. There was also an incoherent excitement, as if he knew something.
"You...do you know something?" Gu Mo asked tentatively. He was afraid that the young man would not say anything after encountering something?
"This is not the place to talk. Come with me." The young man took a deep breath, calmed down his tone, and slowly said to Gu Mo.
"Okay!" Gu Mo felt that he should have caught a clue, but he didn't know what he would experience next.
The young man led the horse slowly to a remote house, pointed to the room inside and said, "Go in, I will put the horse away and go in."
Gu Mo looked around the small courtyard. There were piles of wood everywhere, and it looked like a woodshed.
But when Gu Mo walked to the door, he vaguely heard someone crying. The sound was faint, dim and bright, but if he listened carefully, it disappeared.
Gu Mo opened the door, and the oncoming dust went straight into Gu Mo's nose. There was dust everywhere. It seemed that no one had been here for a long time.
Gu Mo covered his nose with his hand and entered the room. From the front, there was a staircase leading directly to the ground. There were some strange torture instruments next to it, such as ropes, knives, splints, cannons... spiritual absorbing stones.
Gu Mo shivered as he looked at them. These instruments of torture were too strange. Others were fine, but why would something like a spirit-absorbing stone appear in a place like this?
Gu Mo walked further in and heard the sounds again, this time coming from under the stairs. Gu Mo began to have doubts. He suspected that someone had been kidnapped here.
Gu Mo knelt down and listened with his ears. The screams coming from the ground made him feel terrified and creepy.
"Sir, are you okay?" Gu Mo was surprised to realize that the young man had not spoken for a long time. Gu Mo walked out of the door. There was no shadow of the young man outside the door, and even the horse was gone.
Gu Mo felt relieved and turned around to enter the basement that the stairs led to. The stairs made a creaking sound and looked like they could break at any time.
There is a small door at the bottom of the stairs. The blood marks on the door are so shocking that it makes people nervous.
Gu Mo slowly opened the door, and what he saw was two people barbeque. The broken leg next to them, it goes without saying that he knew what they were doing.
There are cages all around, and soul-absorbing stones are placed on each cage. Each of them is so skinny that their original appearance can hardly be seen.
Seeing Gu Mo's appearance, the two of them were not surprised at all, as if they had already known about it.
They put the barbecue aside and were about to attack Gu Mo. As soon as Gu Mo used his spiritual power, the two of them fell down and vomited blood.
Before Gu Mo could figure it out, a large number of officers and soldiers came down from the stairs, helped the two barbecue men up, and pointed their swords at Gu Mo.
"Young master is such a person...I'm so disappointed." The young man's voice came from the stairs and looked distressed at Gu Mo. Gu Mo didn't know why.
Immediately afterwards, a sword pierced Gu Mo's shoulder. Gu Mo looked at the blood on his shoulder and they convicted him without even giving him a chance to explain.
"Wait, what did I do?" Gu Mo endured the sting and spoke tremblingly.
"Don't you know what the young master has done?" Another voice came from behind. He was wearing armor and had a righteous look, but he was so eager to convict others.
"I don't know what I have done, please tell me clearly!" Gu Mo's face turned pale, and the corners of his mouth kept trembling.
"Xing'er, tell me." Shangguan Muhan poked the boy next to him, signaling him to tell him what happened.
When Gu Mo saw this scene, he knew that he had been tricked. This harmless young man actually harmed him. And how did he know that there was someone here? The only explanation was...
"When I met this young master, he shot me with an arrow... Then I followed him here. I heard the screams and thought about the recent disappearance of the spiritual cultivator, so I knew something was wrong. But as a father
My son, I couldn't run away from the battle, so I went to find two officers and soldiers, and they..." The young man's extremely wronged look made others feel extremely distressed.
Their young city master has been unable to cultivate spiritually since he was born. Under such circumstances, he still has the courage to stand up. It seems that he has really grown up.
After saying these words, Shangguan Muhan's eyes became moist. He had been so wronged. Ever since his wife died young and his son was unable to cultivate spiritually, he no longer focused on his feelings and ignored this.
son.
Gu Mo thought to himself how could this be so made up? If he hadn't known the truth, he would have been fooled by him.
"Shangguan City Lord, you won't listen to anything I explain now. In this case, I don't have to be polite to you." Gu Mo called out Yin Zhu and directly penetrated the basement. The people above looked at it curiously.
downward.
Gu Mo sat on the boat and walked away without giving them time to react.
"Hmph, you issued a wanted order for me. If you want to run away after killing someone, you don't take me seriously." Shangguan Muhan punched the wall, and now he was really angry.
Shangguanxing looked at the big hole above, a smile appeared on his lips, "It's interesting."
Gu Mo ran with Yong Zhu to send a message to Jiu Yan and the others, but unexpectedly found that his portraits were everywhere. It seemed that he could not walk on the ground, and Gu Mo's shoulder was still aching.
"They left too fast, what to do with those people?" Gu Mo became worried. They were eating human flesh. If they were one step behind, they would die.
Gu Mo took out the purple bead from his waist and smashed it. Purple smoke came out. When the two people far away in Qinglong Continent saw the purple smoke, they rushed to Nanxing City non-stop.
After a while, the two people came to Gu Mo panting and said, "Is there any news?"
Gu Mo then opened his mouth and told everything about what had just happened. The more he spoke, the more the two people's brows tightened, and their eyes looked up as if they wanted to kill someone.
"You know something, right?" Gu Mo concluded that these two people must know something, but they may not want to say it.
Jiuyan spread his hands, "Okay, I'll tell you this. This thing should be related to a book." Jiuyan's face didn't look very good, and Li Ge patted him on the shoulder.
"Let me tell you, when the Demon Clan was exterminated by the Celestial Clan, in addition to the magic beads being taken away, a forbidden book of the Demon Clan was also taken away. It had disappeared without a trace at that time. This book records
Some things that defy nature and change one's destiny include spiritual planting." Li Ge didn't want to reveal Jiuyan's scars, but there was no other way.
"What is spirit planting?" Gu Mo asked doubtfully, can spirits still be planted? It sounds mysterious.
"Sucking out a person with spiritual power and injecting it into a person's body using a spiritual absorbing stone is called spiritual transplantation. And it can only be done by seven or forty-nine people." Li Ge sighed, how could he use this kind of magic?
obtained.
"But won't the spiritual power be chaotic?" Gu Moguang felt cruel when he thought about it. He seemed so innocent to do such a thing.
"This is also the reason why there are seventy-seven and forty-nine. In short, they are just evil heretics. No one has tried it." Li Ge rubbed Gu Mo's head and turned to look at Jiuyan who said nothing.
