Chapter 223: The Soul Refiner
Duan Tianyu and Chu Wushuang left the community and took a taxi......
"Where are you going now?" Chu Wushuang asked in a low voice.
Duan Tianyu didn't say the specific location, just asked the driver to follow his instructions.
At this moment, not only Chu Wushuang was puzzled, but even the driver looked at Duan Tianyu, and it took half a day to start the car......
However, although the car was started, the driver looked at Duan Tianyu and Chu Wushuang through the rearview mirror.
Duan Tianyu took out his ID card, handed it to the driver, and said, "Big brother driver, this is my ID card, you can take a look." We're not bad guys, don't worry. The two of us came here to visit relatives, why don't we go back, we bet that I still remember the way back...... Don't send us to the Public Security Bureau!"
"Don't say it, lad. The driver said with a smile, "If you don't say it, don't look at the two of you talented women, maybe I'll really call the police!"
"Brother Driver, do you think he can recognize the way back?" Chu Wushuang glanced at Duan Tianyu and began to make up nonsense for him......
"I, I wish you hadn't been able to find your way all night, so I'd have business all night!"
"Then I'll try my best to fulfill my eldest brother's wishes!" Duan Tianyu said with a smile.
The driver shook his head, "Just kidding, you'd better go home as soon as possible, it's not safe to be outside at night." If you can't remember, just tell me the address!"
Duan Tianyu and Chu Wushuang were warmed by the words of this driver's eldest brother, and looked at each other and smiled, "Thank you, driver's brother." ”
Two hours later, in a village on the outskirts of Shanghai, Duan Tianyu and Chu Wushuang got out of the car. Chu Wushuang looked around and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Don't you want to see ghosts?" Duan Tianyu began to walk forward.
Chu Wushuang immediately followed, grabbed Duan Tianyu, and asked excitedly, "Are you telling the truth? Do you really take me to see the ghosts?" Oh, by the way, just now at Brother Wang's house, you said that I should see enough, so that's what you meant!"
Duan Tianyu nodded, then turned to the right......
"How long will it take?" Chu Wushuang followed Duan Tianyu closely, constantly looking around.
"We'll have to walk for a while. Duan Tianyu responded.
"Then why don't you ask the driver's brother to send us directly?"
Duan Tianyu shook his head, "The place we are going to is a deserted village, and it is not appropriate to ask the driver's brother to send it over." ”
"Then you have to hold me tightly, I'm afraid!" Chu Wushuang clinged to Duan Tianyu.
"Scared, afraid of what?" Duan Tianyu asked.
"Of course it's a ghost!" Chu Wushuang said.
"Didn't you just see it all?
"Of course I'm scared, no, I want you to carry me away!" Chu Wushuang said and began to drill into Duan Tianyu's arms.
Duan Tianyu stretched out his hand to resist Chu Wushuang, "I think it's better to send you back first!"
"Don't, don't, don't......" Chu Wushuang immediately shook his hand, "I won't go back, I don't want you to hug me, okay!"
Duan Tianyu nodded, "Then let's go." ”
"Then you hold my hand, okay?" Chu Wushuang said pitifully.
Duan Tianyu looked at Chu Wushuang and stretched out his hand......
Chu Wushuang stretched out his hand and held Duan Tianyu's big hand, and his heart was instantly surrounded by warmth......
Duan Tianyu led Chu Wushuang and continued to walk forward, there was no light around him, and the moon was not working tonight, so now he couldn't see his five fingers......
"Can you see the way?" Chu Wushuang asked, "Shall we get some light?"
"No, you just follow me. Duan Tianyu responded.
Chu Wushuang rolled his eyes, then let go of Duan Tianyu's hand, went behind him, and jumped onto Duan Tianyu's back at once, wrapping his arms around his neck and hooking his waist with his feet,
"I'm tired, you carry me!"
Knowing that Chu Wushuang did it on purpose, Duan Tianyu had no choice but to cross his hands in front of him, fix her legs, and then speak, "Don't move." ”
Chu Wushuang's goal had been achieved, so he didn't understand the meaning of Duan Tianyu's words at all...... Instead, he nodded obediently with satisfaction, then leaned his head on Duan Tianyu's shoulder, and said softly, "I see...... Now it seems to be back to the time when you took me to escape!"
Chu Wushuang lay on Duan Tianyu's back, closed his eyes, and quietly enjoyed the tranquility of the moment. Suddenly, only her and Duan Tianyu's breathing and heartbeat were jumping......
Suddenly, she felt that Duan Tianyu's speed of progress had accelerated. She opened her eyes and looked around...... It was still pitch black all around, but with the sound of the wind in her ears, she could be sure that Duan Tianyu's speed was very fast......
"Is it that far away?" asked Chu Wushuang.
"It was there in a few minutes. Duan Tianyu responded.
"Did you just deliberately let go of that ghost?" Chu Wushuang asked again.
Duan Tianyu responded, "Yes, that ghost is not a normal ghost. When I caught it at that time, it was normal at first, but soon I felt that an energy dozens of times stronger than itself inexplicably appeared on its body, which is very rare!
"What are the factors that make this happen?" Chu Wushuang asked.
"There are not many factors, and the two biggest possibilities are oneself and being manipulated!" Duan Tianyu said, "The possibility of the former is almost gone, then only being manipulated by others remains!"
"Being manipulated, is there anyone still 'raising ghosts'?" Chu Wushuang asked in surprise.
Duan Tianyu nodded, "You're right, there are indeed people who 'eat ghosts,' for them to drive. And such people are called 'soul refiners!'"
"Soul Refiner, why haven't I heard of it?" Chu Wushuang asked.
"The Soul Alchemist also belongs to a class of professions, and he belongs to a branch of the Puppeteer. Duan Tianyu explained, "In today's era, such an unpopular and extremely cumbersome profession has basically been lost, and it is normal that you have not heard of it...... Suddenly a soul refiner came to ......"
"So, you came over to take a look, right?" Chu Wushuang said the latter words for Duan Tianyu.
"Calling him a soul refiner is to elevate him!" Duan Tianyu said, "If it's a real soul refiner, I'll be curious, but it's more respectful." Because in today's cultivation world, those who can learn the soul refining technique are amazing! But this soul refiner......
Duan Tianyu's words didn't go any further, but Chu Wushuang could hear that the tone was not good...... "Then what are we going to do?"
"Catch him first, then talk about it!"
Chu Wushuang hugged Duan Tianyu's neck tighter again, "How powerful is he?"
"He, if it's a real puppeteer, or a soul refining master, or a more comprehensive soul refining puppeteer, their combat power is not as good as underestimating! But the one we're facing!" Duan Tianyu said, a sneer rising on the corner of his mouth, and the contempt in his words was overflowing.
Duan Tianyu's tone, Chu Wushuang heard it for the first time. She always felt that such words came out of Duan Tianyu's mouth, which was very inconsistent with his image and temperament...... "These words shouldn't have come out of your mouth!"
"Is contempt right?" Duan Tianyu chuckled, "Indeed, this can be said to be the first time in my life that I have spoken in this tone! But I think it's a pity that the word contempt is used on him! People like them can be said to be the scum of the scum among cultivators! They are the stain on the puppeteer's profession!"
"Soul refiner, as the name suggests, is to refine the soul into its most powerful weapon. Duan Tianyu continued, "And in the cultivation world, what soul refiners refine is the soul of demon beasts. Of course, the human soul can also be refined, and the strength is stronger. However, such an act will be regarded as against the Heavenly Dao, and if it is discovered, it will be regarded as the public enemy of the cultivator and will be hunted down! Of course, this is all official ......."
"And raising the soul is the key to the growth of the soul...... Soul refiners usually put their souls in places where yin qi is heavy, and then help them grow by feeding them yin herbs and other methods...... And the person we met, the way he raised ghosts was to absorb people's energy! This method is the same as refining with people's souls, and everyone will be punished for this kind of behavior......"
Suddenly, Duan Tianyu felt that his cheek was sneak attacked by Chu Wushuang...... Immediately after that, Chu Wushuang raised his hands and shouted loudly, "Husband, you are so powerful, you actually know so much! I really like you so much......
This can startle Duan Tianyu, he never thought that Chu Wushuang would come to such a loud voice...... "Didn't you ask you not to move?"
Hearing Duan Tianyu's words, Chu Wushuang immediately returned to Duan Tianyu's shoulder and said obediently, "Got it, husband." ”
"Another ......"
"I won't change it, don't forget, you agreed. Chu Wushuang said confidently, "When no one is around, I will call you husband! If you want to regret it, I can go to Xiaoqing to give you a review!"
Duan Tianyu sighed secretly and said no more......
Chu Wushuang saw that Duan Tianyu didn't say anything more, and he was overjoyed in his heart, but he didn't 'get worse,' but asked in a low voice, "Haven't you arrived yet?"
"Soon, there will be an uncomfortable scene for a while, you have to pay attention to yourself!" Duan Tianyu admonished.
"My husband is so nice, don't worry, I'm not afraid of anything with my husband......!
Duan Tianyu hurriedly ended the topic, "Ahem, it's here, come down." ”
A dilapidated house, a few ghosts in the house reflect a human figure, dark and eerie, creepy!
Chu Wushuang looked around and asked in a low voice, "Husband, how is this gloomy?"
Regarding Chu Wushuang's title, Duan Tianyu was powerless and shook his head, "There are a lot of ghosts and corpses here, and they are all yin attributes, of course they will feel this way!"
"Corpses!How can there be corpses?" Chu Wushuang asked in surprise.
"Not only corpses, but also corpses!"
"Do you mean, someone inside is about to die?" Chu Wushuang covered his mouth......
Duan Tianyu sighed, "It's already dead! If Wang Xi hadn't met us, he would have ...... soon."
"Then let's hurry in and catch that heinous person!" Chu Wushuang gritted his teeth.
Duan Tianyu nodded, pulling Chu Wu forward in both directions......
They entered the courtyard with great fanfare, and Duan Tianyu casually threw out a few spirit stones around the house......
Suddenly, a large number of ghost howls rushed out of the house! Chu Wushuang didn't see anything, so he was very scared at the moment, hugged Duan Tianyu tightly, and fell into his arms......
Duan Tianyu stretched out his hand and clicked a few times, and the ghost howl suddenly disappeared. However, an eerie voice came, "Who are you, what are you doing here?"
Chu Wushuang got up from Duan Tianyu's arms and looked over to the place where the voice came from...... Through the dim light around him, he saw a man standing at the door of the house, with his hair disheveled, his face pale and his limbs withered......
"Husband, is that him?" Chu Wushuang asked in a low voice, "Is he a human or a ghost now?"
"It's still human for the time being, but it will ...... soon" Duan Tianyu's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
Chu Wushuang shrank back into Duan Tianyu's arms, she felt very comfortable like this...... "Why did I only hear the ghost howl just now?"
"He cast some small spells. Duan Tianyu said, "You can see it now when you turn around." ”
Sure enough, when Chu Wushuang looked back, there were four or five ghosts in front of him, and their appearance was the same as the ghost he saw in Wang Yongde's house, illusory and ethereal!
"Can they speak?" Chu Wushuang asked.
"Yes, but you can't hear it yet, you need to ......"
Duan Tianyu's words were interrupted, it was the guy at the door. His tone was annoyed, "Didn't you hear? Who are you?"
His complexion changed from sallow white to yellow, and he didn't know when something similar to a staff appeared in his hand, he raised the staff, only to see more than a dozen ghosts intermittently appear around him, this face is really a ghost crying wolf!
Duan Tianyu's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, why didn't he pay attention just now, how could he still have a scepter, this is a good thing, because he can't see the grade of this scepter at all! It seems that this person not only has the art of mastering ghosts, but also has such a treasure in his body, but he has not exerted the energy of this treasure is one in ten million. But then again, not only him, but even his current self can't exert one-ten-millionth of his power!
Duan Tianyu stretched out his hand, only to see that the scepter in the hand of the person opposite had reached his hand in a blink of an eye......
The person on the other side didn't know what was going on, and when he reacted, he found that the scepter in his hand was in the other person's hand, and he immediately panicked......
Chu Wushuang was looking at the scepter in Duan Tianyu's hand, and when he heard the movement in front of him, he laughed...... "It turned out to be a paper tiger! Husband, hurry, he's going to run away!"
Duan Tianyu's attention was on this scepter at the moment...... The reason why he can't see the grade of this scepter and expel it as an ordinary object is because his divine sense will be swallowed up when he sweeps it up, which means that this scepter contains an unfathomable array, it is sealed, and that person can use this ability to control ghosts because of the power of this thing itself!
Put the scepter away, this thing is not enough to snoop with his current ability...... "It's okay, he can't run away!"
Sure enough, as Duan Tianyu said, that person opened his hands and bumped into him like a headless fly! Yes, it was a rambling bump, a rambling rambling!
"Husband, look at him!" Chu Wushuang shouted in surprise, and then asked, "Husband, is it you, did you do it!"
Duan Tianyu nodded, and then walked forward.
Chu Wushuang held Duan Tianyu's hand tightly, and his beautiful eyes stared at Duan Tianyu.
"Don't bother, you won't be able to get out. Duan Tianyu came to the person's side and spoke.
The man with the disheveled hair had just been knocked to the ground, and when he heard Duan Tianyu's voice, he immediately got up, and crawled in front of Duan Tianyu, crying, "Senior, spare your life, spare your life!"
"Shut up!" Duan Tianyu shouted, "Where did your ghost control technique and that scepter come from?"
"Senior, senior, can you spare my life after I said this?"
Duan Tianyu stared at the person closely, his eyes constricted, "Forget it, what do you have to say...... and stretched out his hand as he spoke......
"I said, I said, my predecessor spared his life!" The man crouched on the ground, trembling, "I said, I said, my name is Zhan Wenyong, it's ......"
"No one wants to know your name, don't talk nonsense!" Duan Tianyu shouted again, "Get up and speak!"
Zhan Wenyong slipped down and stood up, "What you said were all found by me from an ancient tomb, and there are a lot of gold and silver jewelry, antiquities and cultural toys in it, all of which are in the house, and those are all yours, and the rest are not ......."
"How did you get your ghost trick?" Duan Tianyu asked.
Zhan Wenyong's eyes began to flicker, and he took out a secret book and handed it to Duan Tianyu......
Duan Tianyu took the cheats handed over by Zhan Wenyong, swept through it with his divine sense, and immediately frowned...... He raised his head and looked at Zhan Wenyong, "You shouldn't have anything else to say!"
