Chapter 743: Soul Guiding Lamp

I took a lantern from the wall and poured out the oil.

Lin Feng stepped forward expectantly and asked, "Mr. Zhuge , how is the investigation?"

"It's fine."

I replied perfunctorily, and then tapped my fingertips on the corpse's eyebrows, drawing out the last unextinguished soul fire and placing it into the wick.

The faint blue light burned slowly, and the flames swayed in the northeast direction.

The energy of the soul lamp can guide us to the location of the murderer.

I immediately shielded myself from the wind with my body, lest this weak flame be blown away.

"Let's go, let's go and catch the murderer!"

I summoned the Bone Spirit Horse, made a carriage that could block the wind, slipped into it, and immediately galloped towards the streets to the northeast.

On the way, Murphy still couldn't help but ask, "What are you investigating when you go to the sky above Sun Moon City today?"

I said bluntly, "I'm looking for the crisis in Sun Moon City to judge whether I can deal with it."

"If there is a threat from a powerful demon beast, or if your fate should be extinguished, and you need to change your life against the sky, I will find a way to move as much as possible for the people in the city to save their lives, and I will not fight head-on."

"The passage of time and the number of lives are reversed, which is a reversible disaster, so I choose to solve the problem."

Lin Feng was greatly surprised, "Mr. Zhuge , you are simply a god, and what you say is almost exactly the same as Master!"

I used my body to protect the lantern, "It's useless to praise me, go and sit in front and watch the road."

An hour earlier, the city's defense forces had already issued warning notices, and families were closed to avoid the disaster.

When the streets were deserted, the Bone Spirit Horse galloped like a fly, and when it reached the edge of the city wall, it leaped into the air.

Flying out of Sun Moon City, we don't dare to be so arrogant anymore.

If we go too fast and break into the lair of a desolate beast somewhere, we will have to walk around without pumping.

I took away the Pure Bone Spirit Horse, and the four of them walked forward.

Outside the Sun and Moon City, the sun's rays gradually dimmed, replaced by a muddy yellow sky and endless rocky yellow sand.

Lin Feng coughed twice, "The sand and dust outside really can't stand it. It's been a few years since I've been outside of Sun Moon City's energy range."

Passing through the yellow sand, there is a black stone mountain area in front of you.

Huge black rocks towered majestically, and in the ravines and crevices filled with yellow sand, the shrubs of the Spirit Star grew.

The further I went, the more I could sense the power of the sinister and stronger.

The faint blue flame in the lantern suddenly swelled in a circle, and suddenly came out of the lantern, and fluttered forward with joy.

"Keep up!"

We trotted and followed for about ten miles, and the flames stopped in front of the deep cave on the mountainside, and whizzed into it.

Murphy subconsciously wanted to follow, but was dragged by me.

Murphy was puzzled, "I didn't feel the danger from inside, and I didn't have any strong aura, what are you stopping me from?"

I said, "There is no wind at the entrance of the cave, so it can be seen that the whole mountain is closed, so there is no need for us to rush into it."

As I spoke, I twitched the spell with my fingertips, and a forbidden charm stuck to the top of the cavern.

Near the cave, there were speckled green particles, and when they got closer, they still had a foul smell.

Li Wenjuan squatted down curiously to check, and poked with a small branch again, "What is this?"

I said, "If that's right, it's the dung of the beast."

"Phew!"

Li Wenjuan threw away the stick, looking depressed.

I made a shushing gesture to the crowd, and as I listened, I could hear the creaking sound coming from the cave.

There is not only the power of yin and evil in the cave, but also the unique aura of wild beasts, so I can't figure out for a while what is hidden inside.

Fortunately, the guy hiding inside is not very strong.

I pointed to Li Wenjuan and Lin Feng and said, "You two are guarding the door to prevent anything from escaping, and Murphy and I will go in and investigate."

Li Wenjuan and Lin Feng were on the side alone, guarding the entrance of the cave.

Murphy and I went back and forth, and the cat went into the cave with his waist bent.

The moment I entered the cave, there was a foul smell on my face, and I covered my nose and continued to walk, and at the corner not far ahead, I saw a faint blue fire somewhere ahead.

Beneath the light, an old man curled up.

He was no more than 1.5 meters tall, his clothes were in tatters, and he had some kind of slimy liquid on his head that looked like oil stains.

On the wall next to it, there were five people lined up neatly.

The five are all men in the prime of life, their bodies have shriveled and rotted, and bulging bamboo strips can be faintly seen at the location of the bone joints somewhere.

At the chin of these people, a small iron hook is pierced into it, and cotton hemp is worn under the iron hook.

Corpse oil ran down his chin and into a sink.

Inside the sink, slender bamboo strips are soaked.

The bamboo strips, which were originally dry, became shiny under the soaking of corpse oil.

The old man squatted on the ground, holding a bamboo strip in his hand, and carefully stuffed it into the mouth of a corpse.

Even if the old man's strength is very weak, this strange scene can't help but make my scalp tingle.

Murphy drew his nameless sword, "Who are you!?"

Hearing Murphy's voice, the old man turned his head stiffly, and a pair of green eyes stared straight at us.

He slowly straightened up.

Crunch squeak –

The five corpses standing by the wall stood up straight and stared at us with the old man.

The old man fumbled and took out a handful of hemp rope from his pocket, and with a gentle tug, the five corpses rushed towards us like marionettes.

They rely on bamboo strips to support their bodies, and their limbs are twisted strangely when they move, like soft insects.

I stopped Murphy, who wanted to do it, "Such a small place, what if it collapses, withdraw!"

I dragged Murphy to turn around and run, the five corpses behind me in pursuit.

As I ran out of the cave, I opened a gap in the Seal Forbidden Spell.

The moment the five corpses emerged, I pinched the spell with my fingertips, and a fiery red ring appeared in the void.

I walked towards the center of the ring and blew softly.

Boom –

The powerful flames instantly engulfed the five corpses, and in just a few seconds, they were reduced to a pile of ashes.

In a matter of seconds, I saw their flesh charred and their bones reduced to powder.

After the burning, only the bamboo strips used to support their bodies were charred, and they still stood in human form.

A second later, the old man behind him took a slow step.

"Don't rush to do it, catch it alive!"

I shouted, and the moment the old man touched the prohibition, I threw out a charm and hit him right in the center of his eyebrows.

The old man froze in place, unable to move.

Its strength is between the immortal Taoist priest and the mountain dwelling, and it is not troublesome to control.

When the old man stood still, unable to move, I pulled out the Thousand Chill Iron Knife and aimed at the center of his eyebrows.

"I'll ask you one question next, and I'll answer one sentence as soon as possible, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind!"
