Chapter 4: The Soul
The night gradually faded, and a touch of fish belly white quietly appeared in the sky.
Duo Yi helped Lang Jun, who was not in good spirits, back to the attic, and the entire main hall of the Bian family was empty, leaving only the still cold wind, blowing the oak forests around the main hall of the Bian family.
In a pit in front of the main hall, an inhuman-shaped corpse could be vaguely seen, half-hidden by white powder. Only a half-severed arm was exposed on the edge of the pit, and the black stains of blood on it that had long since dried up showed how ravaged the corpse had been.
The square where the pit is located is huge, and there are two giant beast statues carved from golden spars on both sides of the square. The statues that were originally dead things suddenly came alive, and in a moment, the eyes of the two statues brightened, bursting out with hundreds of bright yellow round particles, floating in front of the statues.
In the originally quiet square, two figures quietly appeared, each holding a black cloth bag, tiptoeing in front of those round particles.
"Shici, these pills were cast into this candle dragon statue by me eight years ago. Just in case of a boundary gate war in the future, our family will also be under the protection of the Bian family, in exchange for some benefits. ”
"And this statue of the candle dragon is also the two young dragons I hunted in a dragon pool in the Northern Regions decades ago, absorbing their souls, and then sealing them with a crystal stone to form. ”
Li Muyu looked at these pills with great pain, and then looked sideways at his son.
"As long as these pills can save Lao Hua, if you want me to practice the Hades Skill, I will practice it. The other replied repeatedly.
Got the promise of his only precious son, Li Muyu didn't say a word, and with a wave of his big hand, those round particles turned into arcs and loaded into a black cloth bag.
After the two of them had put away all the particles, they hurried to the edge of the pit and looked at the mutilated corpse, sighing.
"Shici, you are optimistic!"
I saw Li Muyu open his mouth and suck it in violently, and those messy severed limbs and stumps shook and flew towards Li Muyu's mouth in unison.
After a while, when there was nothing in the pit, Li Muyu stopped absorbing it with a flushed face. Li Shici was also dumbfounded when he saw all this, and suddenly felt that his old father was amazing.
Without any extra nonsense, Li Muyu grabbed his son's shoulder with his right hand, lifted his true qi, and suddenly turned into two puffs of smoke and disappeared into the square.
......
In the chaos, a translucent soul body surrounded by blue fire slowly opened its eyes.
"What about Sun Tzu, where am I?" Lao Hua muttered suspiciously, seeing that there was a hazy smoke all around.
Shaking his head, Lao Hua suddenly found himself a little floating, looked down at his body, and was suddenly frightened.
Lao Hua's entire soul body suddenly fluctuated with the mood fluctuations just now, and the soul body that was still intact dissipated in a blink of an eye, and the torso from the feet to the abdomen completely disappeared.
"I'm really out of the way, I'm ... Dead?" Lao Hua couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, a voice seemed to come from far away above Chaos.
"I respect you for being a good man, I didn't expect to be so afraid of death. ”
As the words fell, the smoke floating around Lao Hua shook violently, and a huge illusory face appeared above Lao Hua.
The human face looked at the extremely small soul body below, and laughed awkwardly.
"For the sake of a woman who offended the Bian family, now she ended up like this. ”
When Lao Hua heard this, he gradually remembered the scenes that happened before. There was a painful look on his face, and he didn't notice that his soul was dissipating rapidly.
Seeing this, the human face stopped talking nonsense, opened its mouth, and blew towards the soul body violently.
The bright yellow particles were wrapped in several cyan light curtains, and they continued to pour into Lao Hua's eyebrows. And it continued to dissolve into a flocculent thick substance, flowing in the body of Lao Hua's soul.
The soul was constantly shaking, as if it was enduring great pain.
"Hmph, it's really cheap for you, these two hundred Immortal Emperor Pills are enough for you to reshape your physical body. ”
With that, the huge human face slowly disappeared, leaving only the soul body that was still struggling violently, suffering greatly in this chaos.
......
In the main hall of the Bian family, on the square in front, hundreds of people were gathering densely at this time.
Bian Yue knelt on his knees in front of the square, his upper body naked, and his extremely thick back was covered with dense scars.
"Smack"
Several whip shadows slammed into Bian Yue's back in the blink of an eye, and an unimaginable stinging pain suddenly hit from behind, making his entire body tremble.
Not far from Bian Yue, Duo Yi couldn't bear to see her Lang Jun suffering, and knelt on the ground with tears on her face, hiding her face with her hands, for fear that she would faint.
And the one who beat Bian Yue was a young man with eight arms, vertical lines on his eyebrows, and heavy armor all over his body.
Next to the young man, there was a red-bearded old man standing with his hands in his hands, looking at Bian Yue expressionlessly at this time.
The red-bearded old man is Bian Yue's father, the head of the Bian family, and the first person in the southern realm.
"Two hundred lashes, remember your wedding day, deliberately destroying the Bian family's venue. ”
"Three hundred lashes, remembering the day of your wedding, it made the Bian family murdered. ”
"Five hundred lashes, remember that you are reckless, act rashly, and kill the medicine elder who can cure your wife's poison. ”
"Seven hundred lashes, remember that you lost the body of Yao Lao and let his accomplices take it away, right in front of the door of the main hall of the Bian family!"
The strong voice of the red-bearded old man came into Bian Yue's ears, and Bian Yue gritted his teeth and looked at the pit in front of him with tears in his eyes.
In the crowd watching from behind, there were two figures, an old man and a young person, showing unbearable expressions.
"It's good that he is the first person of the younger generation in the Southern Realm, and just because of us, he has suffered 700 more lashes. Li Shici said.
"If we are discovered, it is estimated that it will not be a flogging, but a disaster of extermination. Li Muyu looked at his son sideways, and he was also afraid for a while.
When the two of them waited until Bian Yue ushered in the punishment of the thousandth lash, they retreated from the crowd very tacitly and walked to the side of the square.
"Father, is Master okay in your stomach?"
"I guess in six hours, he'll be able to jump out of my mouth by himself... ”
Before he finished speaking, Li Muyu's neck and face instantly became extremely hot, and his eyes flowed out of two lines of bright yellow liquid in an instant.
"Quick, this old boy's soul body is too weak, and he is about to condense into an entity and jump out. ”
Li Muyu hurriedly quickened his pace and ran towards an exit in the mountain where Bian's family was located. Only when they get there will they be allowed to fly in the air, and those who disobey will be led by the Seven Thunder Heavens arranged by the Bian family, and they will be destroyed!
......
Thousands of miles away from the Bian family's mountain, a courtyard made of red bricks and tiles stands abruptly on a mound, surrounded by barren mountains and mountains.
In the courtyard, there were a few poultry looking for insects to eat, and several grinning earth dogs, constantly chasing a grass snake desperately fleeing.
Such a scene can only appear in the nether realm, in the village of ordinary people.
A sharp whistling sound suddenly appeared from the sky above the courtyard, and it continued to amplify.
"Bang!"
In the middle of the courtyard, the floor was paved with stone bricks, and in the blink of an eye, countless cracks were cracked, and the dust rolled up buried the birds that had no time to escape.
A bloated figure emerged from the dust, and hurriedly threw away the thing in his hand,
"Oops!" Li Shici was smashed by his father on the floor tiles that were still on the side.
Li Muyu didn't care about anything else, and stretched out two fingers with his left hand, which were connected to the three acupuncture points of the neck, abdomen, and eyebrows.
I saw a large amount of hot air gushing out from Li Muyu's whole body, and the native chicken in front of him, which was crushed by the broken floor tiles and couldn't move, was instantly scalded into black bacon by the heat wave.
Li Muyu's throat swelled up, but after a few breaths, he spit out an oval object and lay in front of him.
Li Shici, who was relieved, hurriedly crawled to his father's side, and followed his father to look at the "unknown" object.
This is Lao Hua, who is curled up all over, but at this time his eyes are tightly closed, and his whole body is covered with a layer of green mucus. There were faintly visible several bright yellow rays of light, which were constantly moving up and down Lao Hua Zhou's body.
"How did my master become so young?"
Li Shici had to be surprised, the impression of Lao Hua is always an old face full of wrinkles, and when he grins, he can still see the leaky teeth.
Although Lao Hua has not woken up yet, he can vaguely see that he has become a young man in his early thirties.
"If he can absorb all the medicinal power, he can barely be regarded as a golden cicada. Li Muyu shook his head and said, "He is only young in appearance now, and his cultivation is not high, but he is only two or three out of ten, which is a little stronger than the mortals in the lower realm." ”
Li Shici no longer looked like a joke before, and looked at his master who had only worshiped for half a year with a complicated face.
"He has now become the mortal enemy of the Bian family, although his appearance has changed greatly, with the skills of the Bian family, he can be found out in a few days," Li Shici thought of this terrible consequence, and couldn't help but close his eyes, "Father, can we... ”
"Never!" Li Muyu hurriedly interrupted, "We have already taken a great risk to rescue him, and now when he wakes up, we have to send him away immediately, the farther away the better!"
Just as the two were talking, Lao Hua, who was lying on the ground, shrugged slightly, and several lines of blood flowed from his mouth and nose.
"Ahem," Lao Hua coughed violently, his curled limbs slowly erect, only his eyes still closed.
The two hurriedly squatted down and looked at Lao Hua's face.
After a while, Xu Shi finally had some strength, Lao Hua's mouth opened slightly, and after spitting out the blood in his mouth, he said softly: "I, Lao Hua, owe you a favor." ”
Li Shici was about to speak when he heard this, but found that his squatting knee was touched by a palm full of mucus.
"Little apprentice, now that you are a teacher, all my martial arts have been learned by you, a little hairy child, in three months. ”
Feeling that his nose was a little sore, Li Shici hurriedly closed his eyes tightly, not letting tears come out of his eyes, for fear of being seen by Lao Hua.
It's just that Li Shici hasn't realized it yet, and Lao Hua can't open his eyes at this time.
Seeing that Lao Hua's limbs were becoming more flexible and free, and his breathing was gradually smoother, Li Muyu puffed out his abdomen and blew a gust of hot air towards Lao Hua's whole body, and at the same time, a light curtain shot out from the palm of his left hand towards Lao Hua.
The mucus covering Lao Hua's whole body disappeared completely, and a robe with a cyan halo was put on Lao Hua's body out of thin air.
"As soon as you have a stick of incense, you should get up, and the farther away you are, the better, the Bian family is east of the southern boundary, and you will flee west. After Li Muyu finished speaking, he went back to a room in the courtyard to recuperate, and just now he induced the real power flight of his whole body, which consumed a lot of his strength.
As if remembering something, a large piece of rune paper tied together with several strands of hemp rope flew out of the room, and fell on the open space in front of Lao Hua with a "snap".
