His figure walks in the void, and the void is very quiet, without any ripples.
Xu Zimo walked across the courtyard and looked down.
The courtyard was vast, but there was no one there. After searching carefully, he discovered that there was another secret hidden under the courtyard.
There is a secret room.
He saw with his own eyes the face of the man in black taking off his black clothes.
How to describe it? It's like a monster that combines humans and monsters.
neither fish nor fowl.
His face is covered with blue hair, and his mouth is like an eagle, shaped into a triangle.
But the nose and eyes are just like normal humans.
And his hands are like two claws. The nails are half a meter long and can be retracted and opened freely.
"This is the lich," Xu Zimo murmured to himself.
He felt the power inside the other person's body.
It was very violent and chaotic, as if even the Lich himself couldn't control it.
Otherwise, Lin Yunhen couldn't detect the abnormality at all just now.
They cannot control their own power.
Xu Zimo followed the other party and walked into the secret room below.
Because he is hidden in the void, the opponent cannot detect him unless he breaks through the void.
Moreover, among the lichs he has met so far, the strongest is none other than the Holy Vein. Even if he stands behind them, they probably won't be able to sense it.
Go straight down the dark stairs.
Xu Zimo finally saw clearly the scene inside the secret room.
There are hundreds of cages of various sizes placed here, and each cage contains a human being.
What surprised him was not this, but these imprisoned humans.
None of them are ordinary people, each one has a special physique.
It's a bit similar to the Hundred Battles, but Xu Zimo doesn't know much about the special physique of the Nine Realms.
So there is no way to know.
It's just that these constitutions are strong or weak.
He saw with his own eyes that these lichs dragged a human out, then skinned and extracted the bones, forcibly separating out the special physique.
It can be seen that they are collecting special physiques.
Before Xu Zimo could take another look, a creature seemed to have noticed him deep in the secret room.
Xu Zimo felt a gaze falling on him through the layers of void.
At that moment, he actually felt a suppressed force.
Although he broke free instantly.
His figure immediately disappeared into the void.
In the darkness of the secret room, a figure suddenly sounded.
"Someone sneaked in."
Several men in black robes who were meditating next to them opened their eyes instantly, and huge coercion radiated from their bodies.
It seems that he is looking for something in the dark.
"You are no match for him," the voice in the darkness sounded again.
"I can't suppress him now and leave a way out."
Several men in black robes bowed to the darkness.
……………
Xu Zimo walked out of the courtyard.
He looked back deeply.
"Is it the Great Sage or the Great Emperor?" He murmured to himself. The feeling disappeared in an instant, and even he did not feel it.
But he didn't panic, no matter who it was, he didn't need to be afraid.
He has two great saints, the Seven-faced Demon General and Bai Meng, and he can reach the fifth realm of the Great Emperor by activating the power of the God of War.
Even if you can't fight, there's no problem in escaping.
He slowly walked towards Xia Wanqing and the others.
"How is it?" Lin Yunhen asked quickly.
"There is a large dungeon inside, where many humans are imprisoned," Xu Zimo replied.
"And every human being has a special physique, and they seem to be looking for a special physique.
It must be a lich."
"This is troublesome," Lin Yunhen replied.
"Not only did they not hide, but they came out in a big way.
It seems that someone in Green Snake City must have colluded with them."
"We have to find a way to find out the mastermind behind the scenes," Lin Yunhen said and looked at Xu Zimo.
"It should be you, not us," Xu Zimo shook his head.
"We are also going to Qianniu Taoist Temple."
Lin Yunhen's expression froze and he looked at Xia Wanqing.
Xia Wanqing was quite embarrassed.
The three of them returned to the inn, and after dinner, they took an early rest.
It's still raining heavily outside.
Xu Zimo heard a knock on the door. He opened the door and saw Xia Wanqing standing outside.
"Come in," he said calmly.
"We can't leave Green Snake City so quickly," Xia Wanqing said.
"The Lich's matter needs to be resolved, and there are still so many people waiting for help."
"I know," Xu Zimo asked.
"But what does this have to do with us?"
"Everyone is responsible for the disaster caused by the lich," Xia Wanqing replied.
"We cannot let previous disasters happen again."
"You know what kind of people I hate most in my life," Xu Zimo said.
"What?"
"Holy Mother," Xu Zimo replied.
"You want to be a good person or a bad person, it doesn't matter.
But the premise is that you must be qualified to choose. Do you think you are worthy?"
"I, I don't quite understand what you mean," Xia Wanqing said hesitantly.
"Do you know what the lich is in that courtyard?
Great Emperor or Great Sage?
And what about you? You are just an ant in the Venerable Pulse Realm, an ant that has died countless times after being slapped by others.
I don’t understand the meaning of your staying, so where do I have the confidence to say this to you?”
Xu Zimo said lightly.
"You want to be a heinous bad guy, or a saint who cares about the country and the people, you can.
But the premise is that you must have the ability to be so powerful that you can ignore everything.
Do you think you have?
The most important thing in being a human being is to have self-awareness and do whatever you have the ability to do.
The sky hasn't fallen yet, and the tall people haven't died yet.
This is a matter for the Linlong Dynasty, and not to mention the existence of the Taoist court and the holy church above.
When will it be your turn to have a respectable ant come to mind your own business?
If it's just a group of robbers having a small brawl and you go out to do chivalry, I will think you are kind.
But what is a lich? You said it yourself, it once brought trouble to the entire mortal realm.
You still want to act chivalrous and righteous, this is not kindness, but ignorance.
The Tianwu sect has not yet been revived, and the future of the Qianniu Taoist court is uncertain. You haven't even solved your own affairs. How can you sweep the world if you don't clean one house?
If you think what I said is too much, you can go to that courtyard, and even if you are killed, I will not blink an eye."
After hearing Xu Zimo's words, Xia Wanqing became more and more silent.
"Don't be angry, I was too naive," she said and looked at Xu Zimo worriedly.
"I'm not angry, I'm just teaching you the rules of life," Xu Zimo waved his hand.
Said: "Go back to sleep, you can think about it again at night.
I will leave for Qianniu Taoist Court early tomorrow morning."
……………
Speechless all night,
The next morning, the rain gradually stopped, and a gray mist enveloped the entire sky.
When Xu Zimo went downstairs, Xia Wanqing and Lin Yunhen seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
"Brother Xu, let's go," Lin Yunhen said with a smile.
