A rich smell of meat fills the relatively spacious cave.
Tianling used a barbecue rack to hold a slender firewood in both hands, and used the built firewood stand to erect a round human head, sitting around the bonfire and turning the firewood to barbecue.
By the campfire, a headless corpse fell to the ground, and from the gap in the corpse's neck, a viscous colorless liquid flowed out, mixed with wood chips, looking horrifying and disgusting.
Contrary to Tianling's expectations, this remnant soul puppet is not too difficult to deal with, and its strength is just a little stronger than the group of crazy people he met before, it is estimated that even if Sha Pei Ge stays, it is possible to win in desperate fights.
But come to think of it, this spirit of resentment is not a puppet master, what a powerful puppet it can make.
Her strength should lie in her ability to curse, and it is already very good to be able to seal the remnant soul of an ugly man in her body and drive it by herself.
In addition, this puppet is not as flexible as when it was alive after all, and it is very stiff to act.
And before being made into a puppet, the ugly man was just a woodcutter, and he didn't know any real fighting routines, so it was impossible to become a martial arts master out of thin air.
Relatively speaking, although Tian Ling has not systematically trained his fists and feet, after all, he has been in the martial arts hall for so long, and when he has nothing to do, he imitates the movements of other martial artists, and he can still do one and a half moves.
Because of this, Tian Ling, who was originally like a great enemy, noticed that the opponent's strength was not strong as soon as he handed him over, and his heart relaxed a little, and it didn't take much effort to solve him.
But then it took a lot of effort to take off the man's head.
Tianling first broke its neck, then found a sturdy firewood that had not yet been burned, sharpened one end of the firewood on the cave wall, and sawed it off little by little.
Fortunately, after the man's death, although his body was not as badly rotten as those before him, it was still somewhat rotten, and sawing it was like using the edge of a cutting board to scratch a piece of cooked meat skin.
"I can assure you that he will certainly not see or hear anything now."
Looking at the charred black head stuck in the wooden stick in his hand, Tianling silently muttered to himself.
Standing up and patting the footprints on his pants, Tianling didn't know what he was thinking, and walked towards the left passage with a slender piece of firewood.

At the end of the passage on the right, Li Jinyao walked side by side with Shapige, Shapi Ge's left hand clutched the carved dragon jade pendant he wore on his chest, and his right hand groped for the wall and walked cautiously.
Li Jinyao on the side leaned against him, looking around vigilantly, and from time to time he would turn his head and glance into the dark passage behind him.
She didn't want to be so close to this weak man at all.
But she had no choice, and she had not received the notification of Tianling's death until now, which made her have to be vigilant.
I don't want to admit it, but if I haven't been notified yet, there's only one possibility.
He's still alive, and he's dealt with the Remnant Golem.
She didn't dare to think about how she would face that man for a while, for fear that Tianling would suddenly catch up from behind, she couldn't hear the footsteps, so she could only keep looking back worriedly.
After a few more steps, the torches were about to burn out, and the two of them reached the end of the passage.
It was shrouded in a thick layer of black mist, and the black mist was like a collection of thin black palms, struggling to grasp something, but after all, it couldn't catch anything.
Behind the black fog, a woman's laughter came faintly, and the laughter was mixed with the sound of crying, which was particularly terrifying.
"You go ahead." Li Jinyao looked at the black mist in front of her and her scalp was a little numb, and she reached out and pushed Brother Shapi.
Shapego walked half a step in resistance, he couldn't see anything, and at this moment his ears were filled with strange cries and laughter, which made his nerves tense to the extreme.
But he didn't have a choice, and swallowed, Shapego moved forward with trembling legs.
As he continued to get closer to the black mist, the carved dragon jade pendant on his chest suddenly burst out with dazzling light, illuminating the passage transparently!
Those black, thin palms were illuminated by the light and scattered as if they were fleeing for their lives, making way for them.
Seeing that the road was open, Li Jinyao took the lead in stepping over, and just took half a step, a ray of sunshine shone on her face, and the long-lost warmth made her heart trance.
"Here...... How can there be sunshine! Isn't this in a cave? ”
The sudden appearance of sunlight made Li Jinyao feel unreal, and she fixed her mind to see what was going on.
In front of me was a circular space, not large, about the size of the cave from the previous encounter with the Remnant Golem.
The difference is that there is plenty of light here, and in front of Li Jinyao, a few rays of sunlight shine out from the cracked stone cracks, dispelling the gloom in the space.
Beneath the cracks in the stone, a naked woman sits cross-legged on a stone platform.
The woman sat there quietly, her eyes festering, her ears swollen like drums, and her mouth wide open as flesh and blood, tilting her head to look at the two of them.
At this time, Shapego from behind also walked in, and as soon as he came out, he stumbled and almost tripped over.
It turned out that there were many cracks of different shades in the ground here, and these cracks were spliced together to form a mysterious symbol.
This symbol is a bit like the word "Xi", and the top of the symbol is the location of the stone platform.
The sun shone on the stone platform and on the ugly cheeks of the woman who sat cross-legged.
The woman remained motionless, as if she were a long-dead corpse, her head tilted and curled up, looking this way with her festering eyes.
Somehow, Li Jinyao always felt that the scene in front of her was particularly weird.
Even if it was spacious, even if it was well-lit, even if the air was no longer humid, even if it didn't even smell the fishy smell that she had always smelled, even if the spirit of resentment was as motionless as if it had been dead for years, she still felt weird.
Because she always felt that this evil spirit was smiling at her.
She couldn't hear the sound, but she could still feel the hateful laughter of the woman in front of her echoing in her head, mixed with the smell of burnt burning, and a creepy feeling arose.
Wait, burnt? How can there be a burnt smell?
Li Jinyao followed the scent and looked to the right, and on the right side of this space, a slender wooden stick stood upright in the cracked ground.
At the top of the stick, there is also a charred human head.
