Chapter 50: The Hearteater

The road from this hill to the cave was relatively flat, and it didn't take long for Su Lin to reach the cave.

The cave is very damp, but very shady, and the water droplets in the soil on the top of the mountain seep down the rock crevices left tens of millions of years ago, and drop by drop along the stalactites to the ground, like a time-keeping water clock.

In the darkness, those stalagmites were intertwined with canine teeth, densely packed, like the bloody mouth of some kind of giant beast.

Su Lin and the others crept through the cave, but no matter how light their movements were, they would cause tiny echoes.

Except for the sound of Su Lin's footsteps, there was no abnormal sound in this cave.

Is it Lu Zhuyu that their battle is over? Have they already left?

Although Lu Zhuyu said that they had killed Jindan Dacheng, Su Lin was not optimistic about their actions.

A group of Qi cultivators said that they were going to kill the Jindan Period, which sounded like a fantasy.

In the realm of cultivating immortals, except for the fact that the foundation building is relatively close to the qi training, there are occasional cases of the qi cultivation crossing the level and killing the foundation building, and the difference in strength between the other realms is like a world of difference.

Su Lin was also very curious, what kind of existence was the so-called Zhu Xian Si, a group of Qi practitioners actually dared to ambush and kill Jin Dan, and they seemed to be very confident.

However, the confidence of those people was not pretended, Su Lin could see that they were very confident.

Although Lu Zhuyu said that he killed a Jindan Dacheng last time and made them die a lot, looking at the expressions and eyes of the people before, they had never done this kind of thing more than once.

Su Lin could only guess that the other party did have a strange method of killing high-level monks with a low rank.

Could that method be left by Zhu Jiuqin? After all, Zhu Xiansi is a secret organization set up by Zhu Jiuqin himself.

"Zheng!"

There was a familiar sound in the sky behind him, it was the sound of the tense bowstring suddenly relaxing!

Su Lin had heard this voice countless times on the battlefield, but he had dodged it very few times, because when you heard it, it meant that the crossbowman was extremely close to you, not even twenty meters.

If the other party is using a galale crossbow refined by the Great Xia Kingdom, there is almost no possibility of dodging.

The bolts fired from the Gale Crossbow are lightning fast, and when the sound of the bowstring reaches your ears, you have only a split second to react, and some of the most talented may be able to react, but the movement of the body will never be able to keep up.

After hearing this bullet, the arrow must have hit the person's body, and all the dodging actions made after that were just to prevent the arrow from being hit in the future.

Almost instantly, Su Lin realized that the other party was using the Gale Crossbow, he was fortunate enough to use the Gale Crossbow when he was fighting in the Falling Dragon Beach, that kind of strong and short bowstring flicking, he will never forget it to this day, the sound is exactly the same as Fang Cai!

The sharp iron arrowhead struck him in the shoulder, but the expected pain did not come, and the arrowhead that pierced his clothes quickly deformed and twisted, enough to pierce a cow with a terrifying force, and flowed backwards down the arrow onto the shaft, and the entire pole was shattered into sawdust.

Destroying Feng launched his defense as fast as he could, and even Su Lin didn't have time to think about it, he only vaguely remembered a certain material line in his field of vision, which suddenly became very conspicuous, and then subconsciously launched Destroying Blade.

"Stop! It's your own people! ”

Lu Zhuyu's voice also came from the shadows, and then the sound of flint and steel sounded behind a huge rock.

The other party knocked and rubbed a few times, the light of the torch rose from behind the damp boulder, and Lu Zhuyu, who was wearing an ink suit, slowly walked out with a torch, she was a little surprised when she saw Su Lin.

"Why are you here? Didn't you go to Hirayama Castle? ”

Su Lin's temples ached faintly, and the sudden activation of the divine power just now seemed to consume a lot of his energy.

He habitually looked around, and noticed that in those hidden corners, the people of the Xuan Immortal Division were armed with crossbow arrows, aiming at them vigilantly, ready to fire the gale crossbow at any moment.

"Put your weapons down, it'll be fine." Lu Zhuyu said to his companions, and those people put down their bows and crossbows one after another.

Lu Zhuyu squinted at Su Lin and asked tentatively, "Did you have an accident over there?" ”

"We met the Yuanying Monk, everyone in Huaiyang Village has become a peach tree, and now the Yuanying Monk has been temporarily led away by me, I plan to go through the cave and go to Wu'an City from here, the sky-covering enchantment has been removed, as long as we enter Wu'an City, we will be safe." Su Lin said succinctly.

He didn't stop, and continued to walk deeper into the cave, now time is life, and the Taolin Sanren may come back at any time.

Lu Zhuyu nodded when he heard this, waved his hand, and the group of subordinates also began to pack up their things quickly.

As immortal slayers who specialize in killing monks, they know the weight of the word Yuanying better than Su Lin, and people like them can only rely on one thing to deal with Yuanying - Tiantiao!

"Let's go together, since it's Yuanying, there is no chance of winning, and I also encountered a little accident here." She said.

"You didn't kill Lu Fan?" Su Lin asked.

Lu Zhuyu shook his head: "We didn't wait for him at all, but we found his body on the mountain road, but his body was a little strange, just now I was still researching, and I heard you come in." ”

"He's dead?" Su Lin was a little surprised.

Lu Fan is the Great Perfection of Jindan, there are not many people in Huaiyang Village who can kill him, could it be that Taolin Sanren did it?

But it's not right, before he entered the village, it was the people from the Ant Immortal Gate who led away the Taolin Sanren, if Lu Fan was also killed by him, the time would be too tight.

"Bring the body over."

Lu Zhuyu waved his hand and summoned two of his subordinates to carry Lu Fan's body over.

At first glance, Su Lin didn't think that this was a dead person at all, under the light of the orange fire, the skin color of the corpse became difficult to distinguish, there was no wound on his body, and even his clothes were neat and not messy.

"Listen."

Lu Zhuyu bent his fingers and struck Lu Fan's head hard, and the percussion sound was a little strange.

"It looks like it's empty inside." Su Lin frowned.

Lu Zhuyu nodded: "It's empty, we found his brain in the grass next to him, and there is no wound on his body." ”

Su Lin's pupils shrank suddenly, and the thing that he had been haunting came to mind.

Without destroying the body, the organs are removed from the inside of the human body, this is the hand of the evil cultivator who killed Xiao'e!

It was that evil cultivator who killed Lu Fan, could he even kill the Jindan Great Perfection? Isn't that guy's realm also a primordial baby?

"Can you look at his heart? His heart may be gone, too. Su Lin said.

Lu Zhuyu was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and immediately called: "Xiao Wu!" Look if his heart is still there! ”

"Yes!" A young man beckoned someone to carry the body aside, aiming it at Lu Fan's chest is a knife, he put his hand in and took it around, looked up and said, "It's gone, my heart is gone." ”

Sure enough, it was the evil cultivator who killed Xiao'e!

Su Lin clenched his fists, and the anger in his heart burned brightly.

"It's like a hearteater." Lu Zhuyu touched his chin and muttered thoughtfully.

"What is a mind eater?"

"The monsters mentioned in "Avoiding Disasters" are good eaters of hearts, their physical appearance is no different from ordinary people, they talk and behave like people, they can walk through the wall, they can't be prevented, often on the night of the full moon, hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, calling for help with the voice of a weak woman, choosing people to eat.

Only eat the heart and do not hurt the body, the victim can often leave the whole body, because the heart-eating ghost often has the heart to repay the kindness, so that the deceased can visit his relatives and friends with the appearance of the deceased, and solve problems for him, so there is also the name of the ghost of the dead blessing, and there are also villages and towns to pay tribute to worship it.

There are also some examples written in it, I forgot, but probably this is what mind-eaters are. Lu Zhuyu said.

Su Lin winked at the other party: "This ...... Is it a youkai? ”

"That's right, it's a youkai."
