New and dark light years

Chapter 39 Things change
Although it smelled bad inside, the smell became much lighter after being ventilated for a while.

The people from the Demon Extermination Department went down and brought up a strange thing, black and red in color, that looked like a jar.

Then they put the jar back on the carriage, seemingly not intending to let the four spirit hunters from Yulin County see it.

Li Lin and others were not very curious.

In this desolate wilderness, curiosity can be one of the biggest causes of human death.

After the Demon Exorcist Division had been busy for a while, Zhang Minsheng came over, clasped his fists, and said, "This unexpected discovery was all thanks to Li Xunshou's clues. When we return to Yulin County, I will definitely commend you for your contribution."

"You're welcome, Captain Zhang. This is our duty as spirit hunters."

"Hahaha, Li Xunshou is indeed a wonderful person." After laughing a few times, Zhang Minsheng turned and left.

It seems that the so-called "asking for credit" is indeed just lip service.

Su Huafang looked at Zhang Minsheng's back and smiled, then asked, "Should we go over and take a look? But there shouldn't be anything left in there."

"You can always deduce something from the clues." Bai Liwei stood up: "I'm also curious about what's inside."

The four of them arrived at the entrance of the secret passage, and the stench became stronger.

But the four of them did not go down together, but in groups of two.

Another group is on top to let off steam.

Li Lin and Su Huafang went down first.

Both of them tied their mouths and noses with cloths, but the stench still hit them hard.

Su Huafang held up a torch, and in the light of the fire, everything in the cellar was clearly visible.

Several skeletons lay on the ground, and behind them was a wall embedded with iron shackles.

Apparently, this was a place used for lynchings.

In addition, based on the tattered clothes and pelvic switches next to the bones, it can be seen that these people who turned into bones were all women in their lifetime.

Li Lin's brows furrowed.

He could guess what this place was for... the poor people captured by the soldiers in the military town to satisfy their sexual desires.

Su Huafang saw Li Lin's expression and said softly, "You can tell from her clothes that she's not a Han woman, but a Southern Barbarian. Don't be too sad. I'm curious about the connection between the Southern Barbarian woman and the object being carried up!"

Li Lin suddenly realized that foreigners at that time had no human rights.

In the eyes of the Han people at that time, the Dongyi, Xirong, Nanman and Beidi were not considered human beings if they were not registered in their household registration.

Li Lin rubbed his eyebrows and then looked around.

There is nothing here except bones and some blood.

So he put on the mask.

Sure enough, I made a discovery. A black gas was coming out of the innermost wall.

Li Lin put away the mask and pointed to the inner wall. Su Huafang understood and started searching nearby.

It must be said that the old man had enough experience. He quickly found the switch of the secret door in a shackle and twisted it lightly... and a crack appeared in the wall.

The two of them pushed it open, took a look, and then closed it immediately.

The reason is simple... there is a lot of money inside, and gold and silver are piled all over the floor.

It makes people feel relaxed and happy.

The two looked at each other, nodded, restored the marks to their original state, and walked out.

The other two were about to go down, but Su Huafang stopped them and said, "There's nothing interesting in there, no need to go down."

After saying that, he blinked slightly.

The two men were tactful enough not to go down, but the four of them ran to the corner and gathered together again.

The four of them continued to eat their dry food around the small fire.

The people from the Demon Extermination Bureau are quite noisy. Since both sides are far away from each other, they probably can't hear the whispers from here.

Zhao Hao couldn't help but ask, "What did you find down there?"

"These are good things, let's hide them first and share them with everyone later." Su Huafang said in a low voice.

Zhao Hao and Bai Liwei nodded slightly.

Then he said no more.

It was soon late at night, and the people from the Demon Extermination Bureau had had enough of the noise, so they began to rest and arranged for people to take turns on guard.

The Spirit Hunters also had their own arrangements. The four of them didn't want to leave their lives in the hands of the Demon Subduing Division. Li Lin was the first to take up duty.

The moon was bright and the stars were shining, and the other three were resting with their eyes closed.

Li Lin had nothing to do, so he took out the mask and put it on his face again. He just wanted to study it to see what other functions the mask had, but when he glanced casually, he saw two "True Lords" at the altar.

One was a red-haired baboon with a human face, and the other was... a shirtless man with a dozen women's faces on his body.

And this man is particularly tall.

The two 'True Lords' were talking and didn't notice Li Lin was looking at them.

Li Lin immediately took off his mask and put it away. He felt a little nervous inside, and then he gently woke up the three people next to him.

"what happened?"

The three of them opened their eyes almost at the same time and looked around vigilantly, but found nothing wrong.

Li Lin whispered, "There are two True Lords."

"I only saw one." Zhao Hao said in a low voice.

Li Lin continued, "The other one... can only be seen with a mask."

The eyes of the three people immediately became sharp.

"What does that True Lord look like?"

"Very strange." Li Lin whispered, "It looks like a human, but it has more than a dozen women's faces on it. Just now, two True Lords were talking, but I don't know what they were talking about."

Zhao Hao's face suddenly turned horrified, and he immediately said, "Let's go! We can't stay any longer!"

After saying that, he immediately got up and ran.

Li Lin and the other three were stunned for a moment, then quickly followed.

The four people's behavior attracted the attention of the night watchman of the Demon Exorcism Department, who shouted: "Why are you running? What happened?"

It was so loud that it woke everyone up.

Zhang Minsheng jumped up from his half-lying position. He looked at the four people who had already run to the city wall, and his face became gloomy.

Then he looked at the four spirit hunters and jumped off the city wall without hesitation.

"You run so fast!" he snorted, then said, "Get started."

Screams were heard, and several members of the Demon Extermination Bureau were immediately stabbed in the back.

The deceased looked at his familiar colleague in disbelief, then slowly fell to the ground.

Zhang Zuoqing came over and said, "Captain, do you want me to bring them back?"

"Of course!" Zhang Minsheng said with a smile, "Without them, how could we put the blame on that old bastard Huang Yan?"

Zhang Zuoqing chuckled, avoided the bloodstains on the ground, jumped onto the city wall in a few steps, and then jumped down.

When it came to Li Lin's side, four people jumped down from the city wall. The postures of the other three were very graceful, but Li Lin was like a weight, falling directly to the ground.

His legs were numb, and he used Yin Qi to protect himself before landing, which barely allowed him to absorb the impact.

The other three looked at him strangely.

"Li Xunshou, when we return to the county this time, I will give you a handwritten copy of the Qingwu technique." Zhao Hao laughed loudly. "I never thought you didn't know Qingwu."

Li Lin asked excitedly, "Really?"

Zhao Hao was about to speak when he heard a voice behind him: "You can't go back!"

A figure floated down from the sky, and at the same time, he flicked the fingers of both hands, and several talismans fell in front of the four people, forming a long wall of fire.

The wall of fire looks normal, but it is actually a bit strange. If you get close to it, it can cause the Yin energy in the human body to fluctuate.

The man who landed was none other than Zhang Zuoqing from the Demon Extermination Bureau.

"Trouble." Su Huafang was facing a formidable enemy: "This guy's talisman can target Yin energy. We spirit hunters are restrained by him."

Zhang Zuoqing walked over slowly, a smug look on his face. "Spirit Hunters," he said, "are nothing more than a bunch of sorcerers obsessed with the evil spirits of demons and monsters. Living with vital energy is the path to enlightenment."

Su Huafang and the other two looked unhappy, feeling that their defense had been breached.

But Li Lin's eyes were excited because he saw a line of prompts.

[Spell +1]

A new ability emerges.
