After the immortal disappeared

Are there any ghosts in this dark room?

He groaned, walked around, then stopped in the corner of the darkroom, lowered his head to look at something: "There is a surprise here."

He Lingchuan took a closer look and saw that it was a wooden birdcage.

At least it looks like a bird cage in appearance, but there are no pillars, no sink or trough, just a grille and a small door.

Dong Rui also came over to take a look: "This is a cage made of seabed wood."

Undersea trees can house souls. For this reason alone, this so-called "birdcage" is extraordinary.

Fu Liushan raised the bell and approached the cage. It rang twice more.

"Come out." He put away the bell, "I don't want to harm you, I just have something to ask you."

The cage was quiet and empty at first glance.

Fu Liushan took out an incense stick, lit it, and blew the smoke toward the cage.

In the smoke, a vague shadow seemed to be thrown out.

"Show yourself, don't give me a toast, and you'll be fined with wine!" Fu Liushan pointed the shiny cigarette butt at the shadow, "I don't want to torture you like Xuanlu Ghost King did."

After hearing the words "Xuanlu Ghost King", the shadow moved a few times, and finally got up from the bottom of the cage and gathered into a human form.

It took a few puffs, and the smoke was sucked cleanly.

Fu Liushan's special incense is a tonic for weak ghosts, helping them stabilize their human form.

The shadow took shape. It looked like a man in his twenties, but his appearance was haggard and there was nothing below his right shoulder.

He is actually a ghost with a broken arm.

Fu Liushan is also good at chatting: "How can you live alone in such a big cage?"

The Broken-Arm Ghost spoke with a hard voice: "There were more than thirty people left just now."

"It's so crowded. Where are they?"

"They were eaten." The Broken Arm Ghost took two steps forward. "They were originally Xuan Lu's food preparation. Before the ghost king escaped, he asked his ghost slaves to catch them and feed them to himself to replenish his strength."

Dong Rui raised his eyebrows: "The Ghost King escaped? Are you sure?"

"Its vitality is severely damaged, with only a little ghost energy left. I have never seen it so weak. It even needs a ghost slave to put it in a box." The Broken Arm Ghost said, "If it doesn't escape, is it just waiting for you to come and collect it?"

"It took all the other souls in the cage for nourishment. Why was it the only one left out?" Is this a trap left by the Ghost King?

"I have lived in this cage for too long, longer than other unlucky ghosts. I know how to disperse the soul, and I can hide it from the ghost slaves for a while." The ghost with a broken arm said in a seductive voice, "Xuan Lu was too anxious to escape, so he lost everything here. The captive ate it up in a hurry and left without taking a closer look. I have been waiting for eighty years for such an opportunity!"

"Eighty years?" Even He Lingchuan was a little moved, "Have you been in this cage for eighty years?"

"More than just 'waiting'?" The Broken Arm Ghost gritted his teeth. Before this, Lingguang had only heard of "Ghost Moya", but today he finally had the chance to see it, "Xuanlu would take me out for as long as a month, or as little as ten days, and torture me, either gouging out my eyes, chopping off my hands, or having cramps." , full of tricks!”

"Then heal me. As soon as I recover from my injuries, the next round of torture will begin!" Veins appeared on the back of the arm-broken ghost's hand as he grabbed the grille, "Eighty years! I've been here like this for eighty years. Yes! Five days ago, Xuan Lu put my arm into a millstone and ground it into powder for two hours!"

"Whether it's a human or a ghost, it likes it all!"

Fu Liushan couldn't help but said: "It especially likes to torture you, why?"

Xuanlu Ghost King specially kept a ghost and tortured it for eighty years?

This is not love, this is hate.

"It hates me to the core." The Broken Arm Ghost said indeed, "It hates my ancestors to the core!"

"Who are your ancestors?"

"Eighty years ago, I was doing a small business in Yaopo. I was married and had children. Although my life was ordinary, how could I ask for luxury in troubled times?" The Broken Arm Ghost whispered, "One night, the Xuanlu Ghost King lurked It came in and killed my whole family, and ate the souls of my wife and children in front of me. It said that my ancestors had betrayed it, and when it was at the end of its rope, I cut off its head as a tribute!"

"It has been searching for more than two hundred years, and finally found the descendants of the traitor. After it killed me, it imprisoned my soul and brought it back, and tortured me in different ways. I begged it to give me a good time, but Xuanlu Ghost King said, there is Every day it happens, I suffer, neither sooner nor later."

He Lingchuan understood when he heard this. Three hundred years ago, Wang Xuanlu fled into the Howling Forest. In the end, he did not die at the hands of Bao Ning, but had his head cut off by his subordinates. Given his nature, he turned into a ghost after his death, so of course he would never forget revenge.

Baoning's descendants were killed by it, how could the subordinate who betrayed him be spared?

The Ghost King hated him even more, so he wanted to torture his descendants forever.

"Do you know how desperate I was?" The Broken-Arm Ghost grabbed the grille and shouted, "Later, I didn't want to die. I swore that one day I would take revenge, and I would kill it like my ancestors did. Cut off his head!"

Fu Liushan took out the pestle and said, "We can do this for you. You should seek relief most."

He is a heavenly master, and it is his duty to transform ghosts.

"Wait, wait!" The Broken Arm Ghost quickly waved his hand, "I can help you catch the Xuanlu Ghost King!"

"You're stuck here, how can I help?"

"I know its scent best. Within three hours, I can track wherever it has been!" The Broken Arm Ghost tried hard to prove his worth. "Besides, its men tortured prisoners here. I heard many secrets." , a lot! They never avoid me, they think I can’t get out.”

"For example?"

"For example, this used to be an immortal's cave. The dark room we are in was also the immortal's torture chamber in the past, and it was filled with all kinds of torture instruments..."

"Wait a minute." Dong Rui was surprised and interrupted, "This is the immortal's execution chamber? What do you mean, the immortal tortures others?"

"Yes, that should be the meaning. I heard them say that when the Xuanlu Ghost King first discovered this place, there were all kinds of torture instruments here, but they were very large and did not seem to be for human use. Also, there were also There are many remains tied up, some with their chests cut open, some with their heads cut off, but they are not small, and none of them look like..."

Dong Rui thought it spoke too slowly: "It doesn't look like a human being?"

"Yes, they don't look like humans."

Dong Rui's eyes showed a bit of fanaticism: "Does it look like the two skeletons outside that were pierced by swords on the wall?"

"Uh, or, maybe."

He Lingchuan and Fu Liushan looked at each other in shock:

What does it mean? The immortals living in this cave tortured the demons?

The title "immortal" sounds like a fairy. However, in ancient times, the war between immortals and demons had long been intensified. Both sides were jealous of each other. What methods could not be used?

Demons are ruthless, but immortals are very loving?
