Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Black Blood Line

"Really?"

Chu Yunfeng asked again and again, but Yuan Bao said that there was no discomfort. But the faint black blood lines are not normal no matter how you look at them.

But his experience, and he can't say what's going on, so he has to bury his doubts in the bottom of his heart.

In the middle of the night, Chu Yunfeng finally discovered the clue.

The sleeping ingot, the green tendons on his body burst out, the skin was red and swollen, and he scratched it unconsciously.

The most frequent places to scratch are the wrists and neck. After a few moments, many scratches were left. Immediately after that, he started talking nonsense again, babbling and babbling, and he couldn't understand what was being said.

Half an hour later, the most bizarre scene appeared: a faint figure stood up from him, the shadow was very blurry, and it was impossible to see what it looked like.

It lasted less than a quarter of an hour, and the shadow vanished. But the impression left made Chu Yunfeng unable to calm down for a long time.

Could it be that the soul is out of the body? It is impossible! The cultivation of the Yuan Bao is only in the Yuan Qi period, and the spiritual consciousness has not been formed, and the soul cannot be freed from the shackles of the physical body.

That's weird!

For several days, the same thing would happen every night, and Yuan Bao was scratched more and more, but he didn't know anything about it.

In addition to the strange phenomenon at night, the amount of ingots is also increasing day by day. Not to mention eating a lot, not only do I often say that I am hungry, but I even lose weight.

Could it be that he has encountered something dirty? The nutrients that ingots eat are absorbed by it?

The more Chu Yunfeng thought about it, the more he felt that it was very possible, but what was the way to get the dirty things out?

I thought about it, but I couldn't find a way. Chu Yunfeng had no choice but to give it a try, walked to the street to inquire about Gu Jian's whereabouts, and asked him for help.

Fortunately, Gu Jian is still a little famous in Yaoyang City, and there are also many disciples of the Sword Sect here. Within half a day, he finally learned where Gu Jian was located.

He lived in the manor specially prepared for the disciples of the Sword Asking Sect in Yaoyang City, but it was not easy to meet him, because except for Gu Jian, no other disciples of the Sword Asking Sect knew Chu Yunfeng.

waited until evening, and Gu Jian finally came out of the manor. Chu Yunfeng hurriedly greeted him and said, "Senior Brother Gu, do you remember me?"

"Huh, it turned out to be Senior Brother Chu of the Yunxiao Immortal Sect, I don't know what to learn?"

Seeing that Chu Yunfeng had been waiting for a long time, Gu Jian couldn't help but ask.

Chu Yunfeng bowed deeply and said apologetically: "If you have no choice, you don't dare to bother Senior Brother Gu!

Chu Yunfeng said solemnly, Gu Jian led him to the side without hesitation, and said, "Senior brother, please speak!"

There was no one left and right, and Chu Yunfeng told what happened to Yuanbao, as well as his own speculation.

After finishing speaking, Chu Yunfeng arched his hand again and said, "I am also in a hurry to go to the doctor, please forgive me for anything inappropriate!"

Gu Jian bowed his hand indifferently and said, "Senior Brother Chu can tell me this, obviously you can trust me, and these red tapes will be avoided! Based on your inference, it is very likely that the ingots will encounter dirty things! Without further ado, I will go to the inn with you tonight and observe in detail!"

Chu Yunfeng immediately led Gu Jian back to the inn, and when he saw Yuanbao, he was eating.

"Senior Brother Gu, this is the ingot. Look, he's eating again! This is the fifth meal of the day!"

Chu Yunfeng gave a brief introduction, and both of them sat next to the ingots.

Being stared at by a stranger, Yuan Bao was a little defensive.

Chu Yunfeng hurriedly explained: "Yuanbao, this is Senior Brother Gu of the Sword Sect. He cultivates to a high level, I specially found it to see your injuries!"

In recent days, Yuan Bao was also worried about the changes in his body, so he didn't dare to escape alone.

Gu Jian grabbed one of Yuanbao's arms, lifted his cuffs and took a look, and sure enough, he saw the green tendons on his wrists.

"Senior brother, please look at it again!"

Chu Yunfeng lowered the neckline of the ingot, exposed his neck, and saw a large piece of green tendons.

"And here! These black blood lines are almost all over the body!"

Gu Jian looked at them one by one, and everything was exactly the same as Chu Yunfeng's description.

He didn't rush to conclusions, but was ready to see how the night went.

A few hours later, when it was time again, Yuan Bao was already asleep.

Sure enough, a faint shadow appeared, and as it moved, a strange sound came out of the ingot's mouth.

"Senior brother, you see, it's this strange shadow. Hey, it's much clearer than it was a few days ago, but I still can't see the specific outline!"

Gu Jian looked at it for a long time, and he didn't blink an eye until the shadow disappeared.

Chu Yunfeng waited patiently on the side, not daring to disturb.

"It can be determined that this shadow is not the soul of the ingot!" Gu Jian said affirmatively, "Only when you reach the Mortal Realm will you have spiritual consciousness. Moreover, even if there is a spiritual sense, it can only replace some of the functions of the eyes. If you want to go out of your body, you have to have certain conditions! I can't say anything else!"

"That's... Do you want to wait until tomorrow night to forcibly wake up the ingots?"

Gu Jian couldn't say why, Chu Yunfeng was a little anxious.

"Senior brother must not be in a hurry!" Gu Jian stopped, "In this way, you take the ingots and follow me back to the mountain villa first, there are seniors from the sect sitting there, how can I say a few words, what do you think?"

"It's... There is Senior Brother Lao!" Chu Yunfeng didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly agreed.

The two took advantage of the night and took the sleeping ingots to Yaoshui Villa.

Who would have thought that after coming to the villa, it would not be until the third day that he would have the opportunity to meet the strong man sitting here.

This is an old man in his fifties, dressed in a simple robe, and the skin on his face is not tight, and he is stunned to squeeze out many folds.

Standing beside him is like facing a mountain, and cultivation is unpredictable.

"Senior Brother Chu, this is Uncle Tai, and the entire Yaoyang City is guarded by him. ”

As soon as he heard the word "uncle", he knew that his identity was not ordinary, Chu Yunfeng hurriedly got up to greet him, and said, "Uncle Tai, I'm tired!"

During the conversation, Chu Yunfeng led Uncle Taiyan to Yuanbao's bedside.

At this time, Gu Jian took the initiative to step forward and said, "Uncle Shi, please see, these are the situations I told you!"

When Uncle Taiyan saw it, there were more wrinkles on his face. He didn't say anything, picked up the ingot, and sat cross-legged on the bed.

After a while, he stretched out his fingers and swiped them in front of his eyes, and two blue rays of light were released, observing the body of the ingots from beginning to end.

When his eyes penetrated the storage bag and saw the "Corpse Sutra" inside, he was first surprised, and then continued to observe the body of the ingot.

"How long has this been the case?"

Uncle Tai retracted his gaze, stabilized his breath, and raised his head to ask.

"Since the younger generation found out the clues, it has been almost ten days. A few days ago, I was able to move normally, but my food intake increased every day, and I couldn't eat enough. After coming to the villa, he has been in a coma. ”

Chu Yunfeng replied.

Uncle Taiyan nodded and remained silent again. I don't know how long it took, he took out a whisk, recited a few incantations, and put it on the center of the ingot's eyebrows.

The next moment, a clear figure appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Corpse!" As soon as he saw this shadow, Chu Yunfeng exclaimed, "No! It's not it! This face, why is it so similar to Yuanbao?"

"Senior Brother Chu, have you ever seen a corpse?"

Gu Jian remembered a story that had been circulating everywhere in the city recently, and immediately asked.

Chu Yunfeng didn't hide it, and gave a definite answer: "Yes, don't hide it, senior brother, I escaped from Wutong Town, and I was on the spot when the corpse led the undead to slaughter the town." Yuan Bao is not from Wutong Town, but he is not far away, he grew up in the Li family's clan land. ”

"Which Li family?"

Uncle Taiyan, who had been observing the ingots, suddenly raised his head and asked again.

"The Li family is the Li family!" Chu Yunfeng touched the back of his head, "That's right! The corpses and those undead were all members of the Li family during their lifetimes, and I heard that you asked the Sword Sect and the descendants of the Li family! Decades ago, when the Li family perished, it was they who buried the corpse in the bluestone tomb. ”

After listening to Chu Yunfeng's explanation, Uncle Tai suddenly said something inexplicable: "Sure enough, it's you, Li Sheng!"

"Li Sheng, what Li Sheng?" the two juniors couldn't understand what he meant.

"What you saw just now was not a corpse, but a person, a living person!"

Uncle Tai didn't answer their words, but he didn't stop talking.

"What? a living person?"

The two looked at each other, and the shock in their hearts was overwhelming. How is this possible? How can a living person loom on the body of the ingot?

"Look at this. Uncle Taiyan took out a scripture book from the storage bag of the ingots and threw it in front of the two of them.

"The Book of Corpses?"

The two were even more confused.

"That's a long story. The Corpse Sutra is an evil cultivation scripture, and it has been passed down from the Asking Sword Sect..."

Looking at this scripture, Uncle Tai told a long story.

Hundreds of years ago, there was a young man named Li Sheng who joined the Asking Sword Sect and became a disciple of Tai Shuyan.

Li Sheng's qualifications are not high, but with his acquired efforts, he not only broke through the realm of metamorphosis, but also went to the extreme in this realm.

However, after all, his qualifications are limited, and coupled with the lack of opportunities, he has never been able to advance to the Purple Mansion Realm.

However, by chance, Li Sheng got a practice of evil cultivation, which was this "Corpse Sutra".

At that time, after reading the "Corpse Sutra", Uncle Taiyan persuaded Li Sheng not to forcibly cultivate, so as not to embark on an evil path.

And Li Sheng saw that there were still decades left in Shouyuan, and if he didn't break through, he would return to heaven and earth. In order to survive, and even more so to break through the Purple Mansion Realm, he had to take risks and practice the "Corpse Sutra".

At first, Uncle Taiyan didn't know, but it wasn't until hundreds of people from the Sword Sect died unexpectedly and traced down Li Sheng's body that the truth was revealed.

After the incident in the east window, Li Sheng was seriously injured and escaped from the Wenjian Sect, and there was no trace of him.
