My apprentice is too diligent.

Chapter 192 [192] Life is worse than death (two-in-one, please subscribe)
Otherwise, it would be unexplainable that the other party just glanced at Leng Yuekui on the street and came to her door to prompt her.

It is rare to see a body with heavy yin in a spirit body.

Most people can't see it.

But for some people, this physique is like a furnace, burning brightly and attracting attention at first sight on the street.

For ghost slaves and ghost tribes, it is a torch in the dark night, lighting up all directions, making them instinctively look for you.

Chen Wuji had never told Leng Yuekui about this characteristic.

First of all, Leng Yuekui has never been out since she entered the mountain.

Secondly, telling Leng Yuekui will only increase the psychological burden on the little girl, and may cause depression.

Chen Wuji didn't know that Leng Yuekui came down the mountain this time.

Of course, even if you know it, you won't stop it.

After all, Baihe City has been peaceful for more than half a year.

Who would have thought that the peace in the city was only superficial.

There is already a real ghost clan lurking down there, killing people and creating ghost slaves!
Leng Yuekui entered the city at this time and was unlucky.

But she was reminded that she was lucky.

That woman in her thirties has a mysterious identity and is most likely related to the ghost clan!

A traitor to the human race?
Chen Wuji looked calmly and pondered in his heart.

There is a real ghost lurking in Baihe City.

It stands to reason that letting Leng Yuekui stand up and cooperate with the ghosts can quickly uncover this ghost clan behind the scenes.

But people have positions.

Leng Yuekui's step forward can indeed shorten the time and achieve twice the result with half the effort, but the hidden danger is also greater.

Previously, a ghost slave possessed Leng Yuekui and left her half-dead.

Let alone a real ghost?
Now Leng Yuekui is from Qianlongmen and his disciple Chen Wuji.

Then Chen Wuji could mainly ensure Leng Yuekui's personal safety.

It's impossible for Leng Yuekui to stand up and cooperate in attracting ghosts.

But Chen Wuji was interested in meeting this ghost clan for a while.

Chen Wuji has never seen a real ghost yet!
It just so happened that the difficulty of refining the Earth Yuan Great Pill was beyond Chen Wuji's expectation.

Obviously following the elixir recipe step by step, with the power of divine consciousness supervising at all times, the elixirs refined are either waste elixirs or residues.

There’s no problem with the recipe, the ingredients, and the heat.

The whole process is [-]% flawless.

It was the last step, the drug turned into a pill, but failed one after another.

This step is also a step that cannot be controlled.

In fact, not only Diyuan Great Pill, but also high-level pills, the chance of success in the last step is very small.

Chen Wuji knew very well that the more urgent it is, the more useless it will be.

The number of divine herbs is limited.

Stop temporarily and go back to refine it, maybe it will work.

……

White River City.

Chengshoufu.

Qin Mu, Su Dingnan, Lin Wanlou, Cao Fangfang, Song Huaien...

The city's official agencies and main responsible persons gathered together.

"Cao Zhang Seal, are you sure?"

Qin Mu looked at Cao Fangfang with a serious face and said in a deep voice, "Is there a real ghost clan lurking in Baihe City?"

"It's been confirmed."

Cao Fangfang was equally solemn and replied, "I used the 'soul manifesting stone' to make it clear that there is a ghost clan lurking in the city."

"How many?" Su Dingnan asked.

"One!" Cao Fangfang said in a slightly slower tone, "Only one is shown on the 'Soul Revealing Stone'."

"Are you sure?" Qin Mu frowned, "The display range of the 'Soul Revealing Stone' is limited..."

"I know that." Cao Fangfang quickly replied, "I personally took the 'soul-revealing stone' to the south, north, east, west, and inner city of the city, and found that only the 'soul-revealing stone' was found in the north of the city. A reaction occurred, showing a ghost clan."

"very good."

When Qin Mu heard this, his frowning eyebrows relaxed, "There is only one ghost, and it is lurking in the north of the city. This news is very useful!"

"Master Qin means that we take action immediately and surround the north of the city?" Lin Wanlou asked.

"No." Qin Mu shook his head, "There are so many people in the north of the city. Once we surround them, it will only make the ghost go crazy and kill people wantonly. When people die, they will be turned into ghost slaves by the other party. The increase in the number of ghost slaves will be harmful to us. Nothing but trouble."

"Not only is it troublesome, if the number of ghost slaves reaches a certain level, it will be a complete disaster." Su Dingnan shouted coldly, "If you ask me, it is impossible to do it in the city."

"Old Su, do you have a way to lure him out of the city?" Qin Mu looked at him.

"Isn't this negotiable?" Su Dingnan remained calm.

"..."

"Can the 'Soul Revealing Stone' be able to pinpoint the location of the ghost clan more specifically?" Song Huai'en, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke and asked, "If we can pinpoint the approximate location, we can solve the problem together."

"No."

Cao Fangfang shook his head, "The best 'soul-revealing stone' can only display the ghost clan within a radius of a hundred feet. The 'soul-revealing stone' assigned by the Jingyesi Division of Baihe City has a large range and cannot be specifically targeted."

The soul-revealing stone is a treasure transformed from a special kind of stone, which can reveal the soul within a certain range.

As long as there is a spiritual life, it can be displayed.

The real ghosts are natural spirits.

There is a clear difference between the soul, the human soul, and the animal soul.

Jingyesi has accumulated many years of experience in hunting monsters and ghosts.

You can use the "soul manifesting stone" to tell whether you are a ghost at a glance.

On the contrary, when it is a ghost slave, the "soul manifesting stone" can be revealed when it is first transformed, because its sanity is still there.

After a long time, the ghost slave completely loses his memory and intelligence, and the "soul manifesting stone" will lose its effect.

For this reason, Cao Fangfang confirmed through the "Soul Revealing Stone" that there were real ghosts lurking in Baihe City, but he had no way of knowing how many ghost slaves there were in the city.

The "soul manifesting stone" thing, the smaller the display range, the more precious it is.

……

"It cannot be specifically targeted, let alone alert the enemy."

Qin Mu pondered and spoke slowly, "It seems that we can only use the old method, gather enough people, spread them out, and enter the north of the city at the same time to force this ghost to show up!"

"That's all it can do." Su Dingnan sighed.

"Then I'll get rid of all the people in the Zhenqi realm as soon as possible." Lin Wanlou said.

Qin Mu nodded, "Over there at Fengyun Tower and Wanbao Pavilion, Lao Su, you go and take a look."

"I will personally invite the sects from Crescent Bay."

"it is good!"

……

Baihe City, north of the city.

A remote courtyard, in a spacious underground space excavated underground.

"Nangong Sanniang, where were you last night?"

In the dark secret room, a thin man with sunken eyes and a pale face, with a ferocious face and a sharp voice, looked at the thirty-year-old woman walking down the steps and spoke coldly.

"Where am I going? Do I need to report to you?"

Nangong Sanniang asked calmly without changing her expression. "Hmph, how dare you lie to Master's face!" The man shouted, evil aura swirling around his body, and a faint wind howling.

"I do not know what you're talking about."

Nangong Sanniang still responded indifferently. At the same time, she took a few steps forward, faced the dark corner deep in the secret room, knelt on one knee, bowed her head in salute, and shouted respectfully, "Nangong pays homage to the master!"

In the corner, there was silence.

The dark space seemed to swallow up all light.

But there is a gloomy, cold, and dead atmosphere that is constantly passing out.

"Master, Nangong Sanniang is lying."

The man's sharp voice sounded again, "My people saw with their own eyes that she entered the inner city and went to a mansion last night..."

"I'm going to Li Mansion, shouldn't I?"

Nangong Sanniang responded calmly, "Taking down the Li Mansion is part of the plan. I went to find out. Did I do something wrong?"

"You..." the man was speechless, and his pale face became more and more ferocious, "Since you are spying, why do you act alone? Don't you know that Jingyesi's people have noticed us? What if Jingyesi discovers you, the master's The plan will be ruined! Because of your recklessness, you ruined the master’s long-planned plan! Let me ask you, Nangong Sanniang, can you take responsibility!"

"I was just inquiring, I didn't attract anyone...ah!!"

Nangong Sanniang had just said a few words when she screamed and fell to the ground, trembling and writhing in pain.

"Your courage is indeed great."

A hoarse sound, like the sound of metal rubbing against each other, resounded in the underground secret room.

The air was vibrating at this moment, forming a unique sound wave. When it was transmitted into the ears of Nangong Sanniang and the man, it also sounded in their minds.

"Do you know where you leaked it?"

"Your soul!"

"Do you think that this general has only given you a little restraint in your soul?"

"Let me tell you, this general has not only restrained you, but also bound your soul trajectory. Wherever you have been, this general can retrace your route!"

"You entered the inner city last night and went to a mansion, but that mansion was not the planned Li Mansion!"

"Tell me! Where did you go last night? Which mansion did you enter!!"

The last sentence was like a sharp knife, piercing into the depths of Nangong Sanniang's soul. The stabbing made Nangong Sanniang scream and howl in agony and agony.

However, this kind of pain and blessing did not make people unconscious.

Nangong Sanniang was in so much pain that she was dripping with sweat. She was in so much pain that she was living and dying.

Rolling on the ground, hitting the wall, head banging, banging, banging.

Trying to knock him out or kill him.

However, I just can't faint or die.

Life is better than death!

At this moment, Nangong Sanniang once again realized what life was worse than death.

The man on the side saw it.

The ferocious face was full of excitement, excitement, and morbid joy.

"How dare you deceive the master, you deserve to die! No, death will be an advantage for you!"

"Nangong Sanniang, tell me quickly, where did you go last night?"

"Which mansion did you enter! Tell me! Tell me quickly!!"

Nangong Sanniang didn't respond, she just screamed and kept hitting the wall.

The feeling of life being worse than death, experienced many times, actually made her a little numb, so she endured it.

"Owner!"

When the ferocious man saw this, his eyes spit fire, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Nangong Sanniang is so uncooperative, please ask the master to peel off her soul and make her a slave! A slave can do the same..."

"what!!"

With a scream, the ferocious man also held his head and howled miserably, falling to the ground and rolling.

"This general is doing my job, when will it be your turn to take command?"

The hoarse voice in the air was cold and ruthless, "If you dare to interrupt again, I will strip your soul away from you!"

"No...don't dare..."

The ferocious man stopped screaming, trembling, and slowly stood up, "Thank you... thank you, Master!"

"Humph~"

The air shook, and the hoarse voice sounded again, "Nangong Sanniang, you are very tenacious. If your body was not still useful, I would have stripped off your soul today and let you taste the taste of a rootless tree."

Nangong Sanniang howled in pain and hit the wall without responding.

The hoarse voice didn't mind, and said again, "You can fight to the death and keep it a secret, and I admire you very much. But unfortunately, even if you don't tell me, I know the location of the mansion you went to last night."

Having said this, the ferocious man next to him suddenly had a bunch of information in his mind.

"Go and find out who lives in this mansion and who is in it!"

The hoarse voice ordered calmly.

"Yes, Master!"

The ferocious man absorbed the information in his mind, walked up the steps with an excited expression, and left quickly.

During this process, Nangong Sanniang was still suffering torture that was worse than life.

In the underground secret room of the space, the hoarse sounds stopped and silence waited.

I don't know how long ago.

Nangong Sanniang stopped howling miserably, and the pain from her soul gradually disappeared.

She lay on the ground soaked, gasping for air, her eyes full of unwillingness and despair.

"Master, it's been checked, it's been checked!"

The ferocious man's voice sounded. He quickly came down the steps and stood on the ground, his face full of excitement.

"very good."

There was satisfaction in the hoarse voice, and in the dark corner, black mist surged.

"Tell me, who owns the mansion that Nangong Sanniang will protect even to death?"

"Go back to the master, that mansion is the mansion of Chen Wuji, the master of Qianlongmen, a local sect in Baihe City!"

The ferocious man immediately replied, "This mansion has existed for decades and is the old residence of the Chen family. However, almost a year ago, Chen Wuji moved to Qingniu Mountain outside the city. The only people who stayed in the mansion were A few old servants."

"Although they have moved, Chen Wuji and his apprentices will come back to stay for a few days from time to time."

"Yesterday, Chen Wuji's four female disciples came back from Qingniu Mountain and stayed at the Chen Mansion for one night!"

"In other words, Nangong Sanniang went to meet one of Chen Wuji's four disciples last night, or did she meet all four of them?" the hoarse voice said calmly.

"Yes, Master." The ferocious man replied respectfully, "Only Nangong Sanniang knows who he is meeting specifically. Only Nangong Sanniang knows what the purpose is."

Nangong Sanniang lay on the ground with her head lowered and unresponsive.

The fingers of both hands could not help but tremble.

"Nangong Sanniang, if my general remembers correctly, you are not from here, why do you want to meet Chen Wuji's apprentice?"

The hoarse voice said calmly, "After you went to see me, why did you hide it?"

Nangong Sanniang was silent.

"Prefer not to say?"

The hoarse voice sneered, "Okay, you don't have to say it, but my general's expectation is correct. One of Chen Wuji's four female apprentices should have a special physique and be very suitable for use as a furnace, right?"

"Ahhhhh!!"

Nangong Sanniang, who had been unresponsive, finally screamed, her face twisted, and she yelled crazily.

"Haha."

The ferocious man laughed, "That's it, Nangong Sanniang, you are so vicious that you don't want your master to become stronger. You are so cruel!"
