Chapter 144: Killing Demons and Snatching Corpses
In the past two days, Yan Qi's intestines have almost repented, if he still has intestines, he really wishes he would die at that time.
"What kind of person is this!" Yan Qi secretly exclaimed in his heart, every day the soul stones collected by the ghost slaves would be sent to his cave mansion for his collection, and at the end of each month, a centurion would be sent to collect them.
But since that day, his subordinates sent the soul stones of the day to be seen by Mo Ming, since then, the soul stones mined by the ghost slaves every day will be forcibly taken away, and then they will be sucked out under his nose, and the mining area he is in charge of is only a few dozen soul stones a day, which is only a few minutes for Mo Ming.
Yan Qi's heart was dripping blood, but he didn't dare to object at all, dozens of soul stones were enough for him to cultivate for a year.
Seeing that it was almost the end of the month, the centurion under Yingqiang was also about to collect the soul stone, but the soul stone in the past few days was snatched away by Mo Ming, and he couldn't make a deal at all, every time he saw Mo Ming's unfinished expression when he absorbed the soul power in the soul stone, his heart twitched, and he didn't move at all, for fear that he would find out the inventory hidden in his body.
"My lord, at the end of the month, the centurion will come to collect this month's soul stones, but all the soul stones mined in the past few days are ...... ...... are all defendants" Yan Qi stopped talking, and looked at Mo Ming's face cautiously.
Mo Ming's face suddenly sank, and when he looked sideways, Yan Qi immediately didn't dare to make a sound.
"It's just a centurion, don't take it personally. β
After Mo Ming finished speaking, he closed his eyes again, and sensed the location of the body with all his strength, he has been trying to sense the location of the body for the past two days, but he has never been able to determine its location, but there is a wonderful connection between the two in the dark, when he was at the altar, but he had this feeling, and then killed Yan Qi's entourage, and absorbed their soul power, and then absorbed a few soul stones, and when he calmed down, he found that the connection with the body was actually strengthened a little, although it was very little, if you don't experience it carefully, you may ignore it, but it did increaseγ
At first, he thought that it was because the soul power had increased, so the induction would be enhanced, but in the past few days, he had almost absorbed more than a hundred soul stones, and the amount of soul power had increased much more than that day, but the induction between him and the body did not show the slightest sign of increase.
"Could it be that it's not because of the increase in soul power?or is it not because of the soul stone?......"
After carefully recalling the situation of that day, and comparing it with the situation of these days, he suddenly thought of a possibility.
"My lord, my lord, it's not good, it's not good. Suddenly, Yan Qi's subordinates rushed in in a panic.
"What's the matter? Don't panic. Yan Qi shouted.
The subordinate secretly glanced at Mo Ming, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, this great god came to Yan Qi's cave mansion, as Yan Qi's henchman, he naturally knew it, and seeing that Mo Ming didn't pay attention to him, he whispered to Yan Qi: "I just got the news that the centurion sent this time is Xu Hong, and it will be there in the next few days." β
"What?" Yan Qi sighed in his heart when he heard this, Xu Hong is the cousin of Slack Fei, this person has never dealt with his own master Manshan, this time I am afraid that he will deliberately embarrass him, and the soul stones have been robbed by this great god in the past few days, I am afraid that this time it will be difficult to deal with, Xu Hong will definitely grasp this point and drive the forces of Manshan out of this mining area.
As long as I think of the anger of the barbarian mountain that I will endure and the punishment that is worse than life and death brought by the retinue contract, I can't help but shiver all over my body.
"What can I do?" Yan Qi anxiously walked around the cave, but couldn't think of any way.
"Are you worried about that centurion?" asked Mo Ming suddenly.
"Ah!" Yan Qi was startled by the sudden voice, then reacted, and hurriedly replied: "My lord, you wake up, please save me, all the soul stones mined in the past few days have been offered to you, my lord, at the end of the month, I can't make up enough amounts, I will be grabbed by this centurion, and then I won't be able to eat and walk away." β
"What if you can't make it up?" I asked, calmly.
"There is only one way, that is, someone replaces Xu Hong, in fact, not all the soul stones every month are handed over to the Centurion Flame Sea, but a small part is detained by the centurion for their own use. β
In the Ghost Spirit Continent, strength is respected, although Xu Hong, as a centurion, is nominally his boss, but if he kills Xu Hong, not only will he not be punished from above, but he can take Xu Hong's place.
"Replace him?" Mo Ming suddenly smiled coldly, killing intent flowing in his eyes, "It just so happens that I want to find someone to try it too." β
After about three days, suddenly a team of people and horses appeared at the gate of the mining area, about a hundred people, and the leader of the group rode on a ghost horse, the ghost horse has no eyes, many animals on the ghost continent are without eyes, because the ghost continent is shrouded in darkness, the eyes do not play any role at all, they rely on the soul eye, which is very similar to the magic of divine consciousness.
Divine consciousness can only be generated by cultivators above the Spirit Sea Realm, of course, it is relatively rare for a soul like Mo Ming to be too powerful to give birth to divine consciousness in advance, and the living beings on the Ghost Spirit Continent are all soul bodies, so they are more blessed and can use the soul eye.
When he heard the report from his subordinates, he hurried to the door to greet him, and when he saw the leader, he immediately greeted him with a smirk.
"Cousin, you're here, why don't you notify your cousin in advance, your cousin will pick you up on the way." Lu Fei stepped forward in person, took the reins, and then praised the horse endlessly, "Hey, cousin, your ghost horse king is so handsome, this ghost horse king has a long mane, how can it be like a fire, how can such a god horse be controlled by ordinary people." β
Xu Hong is very useful in his ears, he has something wrong with this person, he obviously likes to listen to good words, but he likes to pretend to be high, and does not let others praise him in person, but Slack Fei has a clear understanding of his temperament, otherwise it is impossible to be assigned to this mining area as a small leader.
"Cousin, it's been hard all the way, cousin, I'll take you and your brothers in to rest. Saying that, he personally took the reins and walked to the mining area, and Xu Hong did not object.
"My lord, Centurion Xu Hong asked you to meet him and hand in the soul stone. Yan Qi's subordinates came to report, Yan Qi was shocked when he heard this, sighed, glanced at Mo Ming, who was sitting motionless, and walked out.
As soon as Yan Qi left the cave, Mo Ming opened his eyes and glanced at the entrance of the cave, a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"My lord, Yan Qi is here. β
Xu Hong was watching the female ghost slave dancing in the slacking cave, and when he heard this, he sneered, waved his hand to drive the ghost slave aside, sat upright, and shouted: "Let him in." β
Yan Qi walked into the cave step by step, only to see a burly man sitting on the main seat, while Slack Fei and the others were sitting in two rows, when Yan Qi stepped into the cave, everyone's eyes were focused on him, Slack Fei smiled, but it was ill-intentioned.
"Yan Qi has seen adults. β
Xu Hong glanced lazily at Yan Qi below, nodded in response, and then asked in a cold voice: "Lord Ben was ordered by the powerful firefly to collect the soul stone this time, can you bring it?"
Yan Qi's heart jumped, but he didn't dare to change his face, so he respectfully took a small bag from his waist and handed it over.
Someone took the small bag and sent it to Xu Hong, Xu Hong took the bag, opened it for inspection, and then his face changed, and he threw the bag on the ground.
"Bold Yan Qi, he actually dares to swallow the soul stone privately, come here, take it for me. Xu Hong shouted angrily, and Fei Fei and the others hurriedly responded, and they were about to do it.
"Slow down, my lord, I am the retinue of Lord Manshan, although my lord is a centurion, but if there is no evidence, I will not have the right to move me. "Yan Qi can only be beaten to death and deny it, it is a big crime to swallow the soul stone privately, if it is known by the powerful people of Firefly, then his fate will be extremely miserable.
Hearing this, Xu Hong laughed instead, "Hmph, it's okay if you don't admit it, do you want evidence? Okay, slack fly." β
Hearing this, Fei Fei stood up proudly, and glanced at Yan Qi, who had an ugly face, with a sneer.
"Back to my lord, someone reported that all the soul stones mined in the mining area that Yan Qi was in charge of in the past few days have not been registered and put into storage, but have been privately detained by him and divided with his new entourage," Yan Fei said conclusively, "My lord, Yan Qi is usually arrogant and domineering, and he is sometimes disrespectful when he does not take the adult and the elder of the thousand husbands, this time he has done such a big rebellious thing, please your lord must not tolerate it." Slack Fei's face was solemn, his words were serious, and he glanced at the others.
Seeing the slack eyes, the others all understood, and they all stood up and said in unison: "Please don't be appeased." β
Yan Qi's face turned pale, and it suddenly became clear in his heart that this situation was clearly intended to rectify him, no matter how much he argued, it would be useless in the end.
"My lord, the villain is the entourage of the Centurion of the Barbarian Mountain, even if there is a mistake, it is not the turn of the adult that you will not punish, and the Centurion of the Barbarian Mountain will do it. Yan Qi could only hold on to this point, only hoping that Xu Hong would have some scruples about the main mountain and would not dare to take matters into his own hands.
"Hmph, looking for death, you dare to use Manshan to press me, tell you, that old thing in Manshan won't be able to jump for long, and after sending you back to the ghost pool, he will soon accompany you." Xu Hong's face turned cold, and he said with a dark smile.
"You ......"
"Hands-on"
Just when Xu Hong's ten captains were about to make a move, suddenly a figure flew into the cave and fell heavily on the hall.
Rumble!
"Who dares to make trouble in front of the centurion?" shouted Slack Fei angrily, for he recognized that the man who had fallen to the ground was one of his attendants, who was in charge of guarding the entrance to the cave.
As soon as Sao Fei's words fell, a figure appeared at the entrance of the cave, and it was Mo Ming, Yan Qi's new 'entourage'.
Xu Hong's eyes froze, and he shouted coldly: "If you dare to commit a capital crime, Yan Qi instructed his entourage to attack the centurion, and the capital crime will be executed together, and it will be killed." β
