A few days ago, the base of Shalan.

After returning, the monk Sora Sakurako explained the task, and they were supposed to be punished because they returned a few days late. However, because the superiors were anxious to do the energy injection experiment, the punishment for them was temporarily canceled.

"I really don't know what he's anxious about....." Zhu Lishang grumbled as he connected the instrument that had previously collected spiritual energy into the laboratory.

The inside of the laboratory is pure white, and the machines around it are all brand new, except for the stone statue in the center of the laboratory. The stone statue is the appearance of a low old man, holding three eggs, two small and one large. Sha Lan planned to inject this spiritual energy that matched the stone statue into the stone statue little by little, so as to study the specific role of spiritual energy. In addition, based on the data of previous experiments, Shalan also built some small instruments and tried to use spiritual power to drive them, but none of them succeeded, and all of them failed.

Sakura didn't say a word, looking at the stone statue quietly through the glass. Zhu Li didn't think it was strange, this little girl from the Far East had done this more than once, maybe this stone statue had an extraordinary meaning to her. So, Zhu Lishang left the laboratory alone, ready to put on an experimental operation suit.

No one noticed that the stone statue seemed to flash a faint green light.

When Zhu Lishang entered the laboratory, the stone statue was no longer there. And Sakurako also disappeared with the stone statue.....

.....

.....

Lu Yuanjun took Shan Xiaoxiao, ran and stopped all the way, and soon arrived at the abandoned factory where Zhu Lishang had arrived before.

The abandoned factory was sparsely populated on the outskirts of the city, and there was no lighting equipment, so Lu Yuanjun had to use spiritual power to illuminate it, but he didn't dare to turn it on too brightly, so as not to be discovered. Shan Xiaoxiao hugged Lu Yuanjun's arm tightly and followed behind him, the gloomy atmosphere here was really frightening.

"That strange spiritual power is here." Lu Yuanjun observed the surroundings and whispered, "There are broken walls everywhere here, and the place is also small, with only two workshops. If not in this workshop, then in another. ”

"Is Zhu Lishang here too?" Shan Xiaoxiao asked softly.

Lu Yuanjun nodded, "There is no movement now, and it is very likely that he is already in danger." ”

"Shh——!h

A dart suddenly struck from the darkness, Lu Yuanjun had no time to dodge, he stretched out his hand, palm facing outward, and a flame formed by spiritual power gushed out, blocking the dart. In the firelight, Lu Yuanjun saw a black shadow flashing, and he wanted to lock on to this black shadow, but found that his visual speed could not catch up with this black shadow at all.

Immediately after, I don't know from which corner, three darts were shot in a row, and Lu Yuanjun simply used the eclipse yin fire formed by spiritual power to form a barrier to block the attack of the darts. He raised his head and looked around carefully, but he couldn't find any trace at all, Lu Yuanjun was strange, he activated his spiritual power perception, but he could only feel that there was a spirit in the workshop next to him.

So, who exactly launched the attack in this workshop?

Is it a human?!

Lu Yuanjun couldn't think about it so much, he stretched out his hand, and with a twitch out of thin air, a chain flashing with blue light suddenly appeared, Lu Yuanjun twitched the soul hook fiercely, and let out a "Boom-pop!" in the air. The black shadow did not launch a frontal attack, but kept switching positions and firing darts at Lu Yuanjun.

It seems that this black shadow only wants to attack Lu Yuanjun alone.

When Lu Yuanjun realized this, he immediately stayed away from Shan Xiaoxiao, Shan Xiaoxiao was a little puzzled, and wanted to run over, but was stopped by Lu Yuanjun.

"Don't come here!"

After Lu Yuanjun finished speaking, he waved the soul hook, shook it vigorously, and knocked off a string of darts that were shooting at him. Even so, Lu Yuanjun had no way to determine the location of the black shadow, he could only always be at a defensive disadvantage, with no way to counterattack, let alone take the initiative to attack. Lu Yuanjun was dodging and defending while desperately thinking of a way.

"If you have the ability, come out! Don't hide in the dark like a cockroach! ”

Lu Yuanjun tried to provoke the black shadow, but it didn't work at all, and ushered in a more frequent dart attack, Lu Yuanjun didn't pay attention, and his shoulder was rubbed out of a shallow bloody wound by the dart.

"What the hell is ....." Lu Yuanjun scolded secretly, at this time he seemed a little powerless, and suddenly, his eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something.

"I can't sense you, but I can sense the stone statue!" Lu Yuanjun suddenly shouted at the darkness above, "If you don't come out again, I'll destroy that stone statue!" ”

This trick really worked, and as soon as Lu Yuanjun finished speaking, a scythe with chains flew out of the darkness and slashed at Lu Yuanjun. Lu Yuanjun waved the soul hook and threw it towards the scythe, and all of a sudden, the soul hook and the chain holding the sickle were entangled with each other, unable to move.

At this moment, Lu Yuanjun occupied the dominant advantage, his strength was greater than that of the black shadow, only to see Lu Yuanjun pull the soul hook hard, and a black shadow shook from the darkness, and then directly gave up the chain and jumped into another dark corner.

A metal ball fell from where the shadow had been, and there was a clatter.

"Scythe?" The more Lu Yuanjun looked at the fallen weapon, the more familiar he became, the scythe in front of him was a sickle at one end, and a metal ball at the other end, a typical weapon of country R, "Shangkong Sakura.....? ”

Lu Yuanjun exclaimed, he shook the soul hook in his hand hard, and the soul hook suddenly burst into blue flames, burning and melting the lock sickle in an instant. Immediately afterwards, the black shadow suddenly came out from behind the pillar on the side, Lu Yuanjun dodged sideways, and saw that the black shadow's hand was equipped with a handnail hook, and the hook tip was extremely sharp.

Lu Yuanjun retreated again and again, dodging a series of attacks from the black shadow, and finally at the last step, Lu Yuanjun seized the opportunity and grabbed the black shadow's wrist, Lu Yuanjun took the opportunity to tear off the black shadow's hood, and the cherry red hair floated out.

"It's really you! Sakurako! ”

Lu Yuanjun grabbed Shangkong Sakurako's hand and didn't let go, his face was full of shock, and he didn't understand why Shangkong Sakurako attacked him.

"Why are you attacking us?"

"There's not much to say."

Shangkong Sakurako replied stiffly and emphatically, followed by a backflip, kicked Lu Yuanjun in the abdomen, and broke free. Seeing this, Lu Yuanjun raised the soul hook and immediately hit Shangkong Sakurako, who knew that Shangkong Sakurako's reaction was extremely sensitive, dodging the soul hook like a gymnast, and ran towards the darkness again.

"Broken Soul——! Broken Soul ——! ”

Behind Lu Yuanjun, there was a sudden cry of a soul-wounding bird, and the entire workshop was instantly quiet, and Lu Yuanjun felt as if his consciousness had been cleansed. Shangkong Sakurako fell directly from the darkness and fell to the ground, Lu Yuanjun immediately caught her with a soul hook for the sake of safety, and tied her up.

Sakurako closed her eyes tightly, covered her head and struggled on the ground.

Shan Xiaoxiao also hurriedly ran over, she looked at Shangkong Sakura worriedly, and put away the five magic umbrellas.

"I didn't expect that the soul fixing of the soul wounding bird would have an effect on her." Lu Yuanjun said.

"Poor child....." Soul Breaker Bird suddenly spoke, "I sensed the spiritual bondage, thanks to this girl who opened the Five Demon Umbrella in time to let me out and untie her....."

"What do you mean?" Lu Yuanjun asked puzzled.

"This kid from the Far East is under a kind of mind control. This kind of mind control is not directed at one person, but is a kind of control that is imperceptible, contagious and long-term from generation to generation. If you stay too close to her for too long, you will also be subtly infected and .....controlled," the Soul Breaker paused and continued, "This kind of spiritual ability can only be done by a big ghost, it must have controlled an entire clan to serve it, fortunately, it has been passed down for so many generations, and its control is not very strong, and this child also has a sense of resistance, so I easily unlocked the control ....."

"Big ghost?" Lu Yuanjun pondered, "That should be the slippery ghost, it has controlled generations of Shangkong clans to guard the stone statue that sealed it to ensure that it can safely release the seal, but the Shangkong clan mistook it for faith and inheritance..... That's why Sakurako disappeared and attacked us. ”

"Is Sakura going to bring the stone statue back to country R?" Shan Xiaoxiao asked herself, "Does she also regard this kind of control as fate.....?" ”

"Ah.....h

"How are you?" Shan Xiaoxiao gently picked up Shangkong Sakura and asked with concern.

"Stone statues.... Stone statue" Sakurako's voice was flustered and weak.

"What's wrong with the stone statue?" Lu Yuanjun suddenly had a bad premonition.

"The stone statue is lost..... Shangkong Sakurako closed her eyes weakly, but suddenly opened them again, and looked behind Lu Yuanjun in horror. Lu Yuanjun felt strange, turned around and looked, and found that a humanoid monster more than two meters tall was standing behind him, and a powerful spiritual power was also rushing towards him.

I saw that this humanoid monster had a dog's head, a red nose and a red face, a pair of huge fleshy wings open behind its back, a long katana hanging from its waist, and its feet wore tall clogs. This dog-headed humanoid monster was holding his chest with his hands crossed, looking at Lu Yuanjun with an arrogant expression.

"The stone statue..... It is a slippery lady. Before Lord Slippery was sealed, there were three guards, two large and one small..... This is..... Lady Slippery's big guard ......" Sakurako's voice was weak, and there was some fear in it.

"A big ghost in the Far East, a subordinate of the slippery ghost." Lu Yuanjun clenched his fists, and his fists made a creaking sound, "I know this guy's name." ”

"Great Tengu!"
