unscrupulous spirit catcher

Chapter 42 Zhijin Cave

"I was sleeping. What happened?" He Shen asked.

Song Yu said: "We are all dead, and now we are waiting for ghosts to come and seduce our souls."

"Tch, you're lying to a dog." He Shen snorted.

Song Yu nodded: "Yes."

Congratulations: "."

Soon, Gu Beiqi also came back.

There were a few more holes on his body. Anyway, it was just because there were too many lice and it didn't itch, so he didn't care.

"Let's go, now we can only find Zhijin Cave by ourselves."

"Wu and Wujin Mountains don't know where it is, how can they find it?" He Shen was confused.

Gu Beiqi said: "When I was chasing the toad, I walked a little ahead and saw traces of someone walking by. They should be masons sent by Qianzhou Prefecture. Let's follow the traces."

The four of them set out on the road again, this time without any baggage or food. He Shen broke all the jars and tried everything in the mountains that looked edible.

Song Yu, on the other hand, was much more cautious.

She would pick two of the fruits that He Shen had eaten on the same branch and wait an hour before eating them.

He simply regarded He Shen as a drug tester.

He Shen was shocked by her unabashed and shameless behavior, and was unwilling to let Song Yu succeed, so he deliberately stopped eating and drinking to make Song Yu unable to endure it first.

But Song Yu was much more ruthless than him. He stayed up all day and night without saying a word.

In this regard, she is extremely tolerant.

And looking at her like that, it wouldn't be a problem to stay up for another two days.

He Shen resigned, peeled an orange, and said while chewing: "You, you are not an ordinary person."

Song Yu then picked two oranges, nodded and said, "I am from Yunshan."

Congratulations: "."

The journey became extremely peaceful. The further we walked into the mountains and jungles, the fewer the spiritual beings were. We didn't even see any small spiritual beings wandering in the mountains.

The entire forest became silent and became a cemetery.

What are the spirits in Zhijin Cave, so that these spirits dare not even get close?
The further they walked, the more frightened Song Yu became.

There are always traces on the ground, including orange peels, melon seed shells, and broken branches, all indicating that many people went to Zhijin Cave.

When Song Yu ate oranges and turned into a minion, he finally arrived at Wujin Mountain.

Wujin Mountain is high. Looking down, you can see thousands of mountains and valleys in front of you. The forests are like dyeing, and red maples are everywhere, as orange as gold.

They found Zhijin Cave in this gilded area, but Zhijin Cave was a completely different scene.

The surrounding area was blocked by thick shade, making it increasingly dark and cramped, making it difficult to see the light of day.

Looking inward from the steep slope, there is an extremely long and narrow crack, like a mouth in this dangerous mountain, slightly open, just waiting for people to walk in.

Everything brings great oppression, and people are already afraid before entering.

The human traces ended here and never appeared again.

Song Yu couldn't help but take a step back.

He Shen also took a few steps back: "Well, let's forget it. It's not me. I'm timid. It's true."

In fact, this place is already very scary just looking at it from the entrance of the cave.

They have no way of knowing what they will face after entering. It is very likely that they will die after entering.

Gu Beiqi said: "But the spiritual order in your body can no longer be suppressed."

Song Yu glanced at them: "Is there a way to suppress spirits here?"

Gu Beiqi said: "It's not a solution, but you can put another spirit on your body. The more powerful spirit will devour the weaker one. You can choose again whether to suppress it with an edict or to raise it."

It's like starting over again.

But it is too difficult to capture a spirit again.

"So you are not here to find Jiuding, but to capture this spirit?"

Song Yu asked.

Ordinary spirits can't swallow the painting skin, so they focused on Zhijin Cave.

Gu Beiqi saw her gloomy face and said quickly: "Naturally Jiuding is also a reason."

Song Yu sneered: "More money."

"Huh?" Gu Beiqi was confused for a moment.

Song Yu said: "Why, you want the ghost hunter from my Decryption Department to work for you for free, 500 taels."

"Yes, yes, harmony brings money. I will give it to you when you get back." Gu Beiqi regarded money as dirt.

When Song Yu heard that he agreed so readily, he secretly regretted that he had asked for too little. He should have asked for 1000 taels, which would be enough to buy a larger house in the inner city.

After the two discussed the money, Daozang said: "The poor monk also thinks it's better not to go in."

The four of them combined might not be able to deal with the spiritual beings here.

If you are more confident, you should remove "possible".

"You're here." Song Yu felt that he would be at a disadvantage if he didn't go in.

After going through so much trouble to get here, I didn’t even go in.

"Then, then I, I'll go in too." He Shen gritted his teeth, feeling that he would die sooner or later. This opportunity was very rare and he couldn't give it up.

The most important thing is not to show timidity in front of Song Yu.

Finally decided to go in.

Gu Beiqi found pine logs and lit them on fire. Each person took one pine log and carried a bundle on his back just in case, and then started to enter the cave.

The cave is very tortuous and extremely dark, the fire can only illuminate the feet and surroundings.

The sound of "clatter" can be heard endlessly, and there is still living water in the cave.

The road was extremely winding, and except for the sound of dripping water and running water, no other sounds could be heard.

The four people's breathing was so heavy, which made the strange silence even heavier.

What is the scariest?
The unknown is the scariest.

After walking less than half a mile, Song Yu's palms were already wet with sweat, the ground was covered with wet water, and water occasionally dripped from the top of his head, which was extremely cold.

It was also very cold in the cave, much colder than outside, and dark. It felt like they were dying collectively.

"There is light ahead, be careful."

Gu Beiqi walked at the front and reminded everyone in a low voice.

The water lines on Song Yu's face fluctuated one after another, making a constant "gurgling" sound like the rushing water, ready to turn into running water and escape at any time.

He Shen, who was walking in front of her, panicked, fearing that he would die before he left the army. Song Yu accidentally killed him.

The bright light comes from a hole, and the sky can be seen through the hole. The sunlight occasionally falls from the clouds, as straight as a arrow, like a golden thread, disappearing and appearing in the Zhijin Cave.

The gap was surrounded by water drops, which looked like gold-plated copper coins under the golden light.

Many strange rocks on the ground are carved by water droplets, and the stone lions that became spirits were carried out from here.

Song Yu held up the torch and looked around.

There is a lake below, the moss is as slippery as oil, and countless stalagmites hang upside down. The colors of sunlight, water light, and moss marks combine to make the stalagmites shine brilliantly.

With the light, people's fear dissipates a lot, and they can continue walking inside.

"It should be - think too much, don't scare yourself." He Shen regained some confidence.

But no one expected that as they walked inside, the situation would completely change.

The stones are no longer interesting, but are instead filed and sharpened with knives, and the stalagmites above the head are intertwined like swords.

And there always seems to be something in the darkness, constantly making suspicious noises, which is chilly and very penetrating.

The sound of running water almost roared like a waterfall.

The darkness turned into layers of thick black, making it difficult for even the light of fire to shine through.

This place is already hell.
