Seventy-seven Puppet Demons
"This place is Qingniu Mountain, which is one hundred and thirty kilometers away from Lingjiang, you should have heard of it, right? These people are villagers in Luojia Village, at the foot of Qingniu Mountain. This man was their leader, Luo Dingshan. Glaire said, his finger tapped, and the head of the man wearing black-rimmed glasses in the light curtain was enlarged.
Gao Jin patted his head and suddenly remembered. These people are the ones they met with Zhao Chen in the roadside food stalls after the mandrill was eliminated that day. Mainly the young man who came to provoke at that time, he had some impressions in his mind. But at that time, it was in a hurry, and the memory was not so deep.
At that time, the drunken young strong man came to provoke, but was scared back by Zhao Chen's pistol. I thought they were just ordinary gangsters, but I didn't expect them to be tomb robbers.
"That evil spirit is very cunning and good at evading the pursuit of the spirit world, not only can it become an invisible object, but it can also control the thoughts and actions of mortals. After two thousand years of sealing, it must absorb a large number of living souls on the night of the full moon using the method of blood sacrifice to restore its mana. Glare said.
"It's so tricky, it's so powerful, what's the matter?" Gao Jin was a little curious, the evil spirit that could make Gler's face a little moved, was definitely not so easy to deal with. It seems that this time it is a good time to test the results of cultivation.
With a wave of his right hand, Glerle closed the light curtain. Then he stretched out his left hand and pinned the small red gourd, causing it to fly into Gao Jin's hand. He said: "The evil spirit does not have a fixed name, and the spirit world calls it a puppet demon. You have taken this gourd, and you can use it against it when the time comes. ”
Gao Jin stretched out his hand to catch the little red gourd, which was the size of an egg. It looks ordinary, with a golden stopper at the mouth of the gourd. It was so light that you barely felt the weight, and it shook it, and there was no sound in it.
"If you find the evil spirit, you can use this gourd against it. As long as the plug is pulled out within three meters of it, it will be put into the gourd. "Remember, you have to be within three meters to be effective, and if you exceed three meters, it won't work," Glyer reminded. ”
Gao Jin nodded, and swiped his right hand on his left arm. The storage space is turned on, and the small gourd is included in it. In the last few days, he has become more and more fond of using this storage space. Not only is it very convenient to use, but it also does not take up space.
"The information of this mission has been transmitted to your galactic heart, you can take a closer look at it when you go back." The expression on Gler's face was a little stern, and he said, "That evil spirit is very cunning, you only need to find its traces on this mission, and then contact me." You are not required to capture it, understand? ”
When Gao Jin saw Gler's expression, although he felt her worry, he also felt that he was underestimating himself a little. Just casually said, "I know what to do." ”
"It's good that you know. Remember, don't let it complete the Blood Sacrifice! Otherwise, it will be more difficult to catch it. Glare said, and a circular spatial door appeared behind her. She turned around and floated in, and in an instant she vanished along with the spatial portal.
Gao Jin didn't care, and he is now confident that he can face any tough opponent. Because he is full of unprecedented confidence in his own strength, which can no longer be compared to a few days ago. This is the strength that has been regained after thousands of actual combat exercises and the price of "dying" hundreds of times.
For the first two days, he was killed in every actual battle. Then, as his strength continued to improve, he went from serious injuries to minor injuries to a draw. can already fight evenly with Guang Longzi in the cave, and in the last duel, the two fought for more than four hours before he was defeated by one move.
After Glaire left, Gao Jin looked at the empty Xuantian Temple, felt an inexplicable loneliness, and couldn't help sighing.
After a while, he changed into his original short-sleeved summer dress. Walked to the gate of the temple, closed the gate, and plugged in the door. I went through each room one by one, closed the doors tightly, and cleaned them up inside and out. Only then did he take out the Galaxy Star and enter the virtual space.
"Galaxy Star 70132 is at your service, may I ask Gao Jin, how can I help you?" The opening remarks of the big face are still very mechanical.
Gao Jin nodded and said, "You have already received the information of my mission, right?" Tell me about that evil spirit, and I want to know what it did. ”
"Okay, Gao Jin." The big face disappeared from the light screen, replaced by a moving image that resembled a movie.
In the picture, a magnificent and splendid palace was surrounded by many soldiers wearing armor and holding spears and blades. And there was an official in an official robe, holding a holy decree in his hand, and was reading it to more than 100 people kneeling in front of him.
Since there was no sound, it was impossible to hear what was being written. However, as the official rolled up the decree, the soldiers around him swarmed up and slaughtered more than 100 men, women, and children......
"This is a big case in the Western Han Dynasty, known in history as the 'Witch Curse', and the official who took the lead was manipulated by evil spirits. With the help of his hands, the evil spirit killed more than 13,000 people and sucked their souls. The voice of the big face matches the changes in the picture, as if the narrator is explaining.
Seeing the screen constantly changing, it's like a fast shot. More and more people were slaughtered, and the souls of the people who were killed turned into small blue dots of light, flying into the sleeves of the leading official.
Gao Jin couldn't stand it anymore, waved his hand, and said, "Look how it was caught." ”
"Okay, Gao Jin." The picture in the light curtain changes.
I saw that it was a dark night in the picture, and a man in a white robe held a three-foot long sword in his hand. Fighting with a sturdy soldier. The long sword in this Daoist's hand glowed with a glowing white light, obviously full of spiritual power. Look at the man dressed as a soldier, but his eyes are blood-red.
The man fought with the soldier for a while, and suddenly the figure disappeared from the spot. The next moment, he appeared behind the soldier. He raised his sword and fell, and the soldier's head was cut off.
However, the Daoist's face was still solemn, and he quickly turned away. Behind him, a thin old man in coarse cloth clothes rushed out. The old man's movements were almost crazy, and his eyes were equally blood-red.
In this way, the Dao man killed hundreds of people one after another, and the corpses were strewn with rivers of blood along the way. However, every time a Taoist kills a person, another person will rush out and entangle him. Even though this person is extremely powerful, he finally can't resist it later.
And just as the Dao was panting, he threw out the long sword in his hand with all his might, and assassinated a man who rushed at him. Behind him, a black shadow suddenly appeared. A pitch-black humanoid with two blood-red round holes in the eyes. Silently, it just appeared out of thin air.
When Gao Jin saw it, he couldn't help but gasp. This shadow is the evil spirit he had seen before, he didn't expect it to be so cunning!
Looking at the evil spirit again, it seemed that it was about to succeed, but unexpectedly, the peak turned around. A golden object suddenly flew out of the sleeve of the white-robed Taoist, and because of the dazzling light, he couldn't see what it was for a while.
After the golden light faded, a small and exquisite seven-story golden pagoda slowly fell into the hands of the Taoist. There was no trace of the evil spirit around, but the Taoist raised his right arm, and with a slight stroke of his left hand, a white light appeared. Immediately, the little golden pagoda disappeared.
"Could it be that this Taoist is also a spiritual detective." Gao Jin understood. The white glow on that arm, which he was all too familiar with, was definitely emitted when he opened the storage space.
"Yes. This is Spirit Detective 31044, who captured the puppet demon and sealed it in Tian Qianqiu's tomb. There are rules in the spirit world that for departing spirit detectives, their personal information is top secret and is not allowed to be viewed. Big Face explained.
Gao Jin was a little surprised. He was just about to ask who this senior came from. Unexpectedly, the big face actually guessed his mind and came out of the rules first. I had no choice but to give up and asked casually, "This puppet demon doesn't seem to have any powerful abilities other than seducing mortals, right?" ”
"Yes, Gao Jin. This puppet demon has no ability to attack, and its power is in the spiritual realm. It can exploit the evil thoughts and desires of mortals in their psyche, and thus control mortals to work for them. The big face reappeared in the light curtain, and there seemed to be some expression on it.
It looked at Gao Jin and said, "I need to remind you that the rules of the spirit world now do not allow killing mortals, even mortals possessed by evil spirits, as long as they are alive, they cannot kill him. Hope you notice this. ”
The rules of the spiritual world, Gao Jin naturally knows. This rule, which does not allow the killing of mortals, was established decades ago. Once you commit a foul and kill a mortal, you will be disqualified as a detective. This rule also means that the next task is extremely challenging.
Gao Jin touched the purple fist glove in his left hand, and it seemed that he had chosen this fist glove that could paralyze people without killing effect, but it was crooked, which was just right for this mission.
"Because the evil spirit has absorbed too many souls, it is no longer possible to completely destroy it. It can only be sealed indefinitely, until the spirit world invents a technology that allows souls to be separated from evil spirits. Big Face continued.
"Okay. Tell me the information about the six grave robbers, and let me see how they got into trouble. Gao Jin waved his hand and let the big face convert the content.
"Okay, Gao Jin." The image in the light curtain changes to the heads of six tomb robbers. Big Face continues to play the role of narrator.
