Man is in the midst of the mysteries of the spirit, and the flesh is infinitely deduced

The jade hairpin on the head is very valuable.

Even this Taoist robe does not seem to be an ordinary item.

However, it was stained with blood, otherwise Anle really wanted to take it off.

In this dark and enclosed space.

Anle had nothing else to do, so he simply closed his eyes, regulated his breathing, and practiced the Spirit Tempering Technique to restore himself to the best possible condition.

"Uncle Lin...should be alright?"

Anle was actually also very worried about Lin Shanbai's safety.

It is definitely not easy to deal with Tang Lan and others.

But now he can't do anything.

It is difficult to tell the passage of time in the tunnel.

It seemed like a long time had passed, yet it seemed like only a few minutes had passed.

Anle gradually felt the tingling in her body begin to recede like the tide.

The almost exhausted Dantian accumulated a certain amount of spiritual power again.

He tried to input spiritual power into the storage bag.

"It's a good thing, but now... it's mine!"

It was extremely difficult at first, like an old, rusty machine.

But as spiritual power continued to be input, the resistance gradually disappeared.

Originally there seemed to be a faint mark belonging to Bai Shanghai.

After his death, this stigma was easily removed by Anle.

Then, it turns into a shape of peace and happiness.

A gray space gradually emerged in Anle's mind, and the outline of the edge could not be seen clearly.

Bai Shanghai's relics were placed among them.

Before Anle could count carefully, there was a slight noise beside him.

His expression changed and he looked upward vigilantly.

The wooden planks of the tunnel were opened.

Chapter 30: The Captive Village

Fortunately, what came down from above was not a murderous attack, but the hunter Lin Shanbai.

His expression was a little pale and his face looked much more haggard.

Seeing Anle waking up, Lin Shanbai forced a smile.

"you're awake."

"This time... you really gave me a big 'surprise'."

"Uncle Lin, I'm the one who implicated you this time. This is what happened..."

He explained the whole story to Lin Shanbai.

Concealed the deduction.

It just means that Bai Shanghai wanted to kill him, but he killed him in the end.

"So domineering?"

Lin Shanbai sighed: "I thought too highly of them."

He looked at Anle deeply, without mentioning how Anle had killed Bai Shanghai.

"This tunnel was dug by me to escape before."

"After I hid you and him here, Tang Lan and the others arrived soon."

"I lied and said that after I woke up, I saw a white-haired monster fighting with Bai Shanghai, and it took both you and him away."

Anle's heart skipped a beat.

Lin Shanbai said it lightly.

But he could fully imagine the pressure that Lin Bo was under when facing the angry cultivator.

Moreover, this seemed to be the first time that Lin Shanbai took the initiative to mention the existence of monsters to him.

Anle asked carefully: "What is a demon beast?"

This time, Lin Shanbai did not show an extreme reaction, but spoke as if he had been prepared.

"Didn't you ask me before what happened to the villagers who were possessed by evil spirits?"

"I originally didn't intend to tell you, but now the situation has changed, and...the speed at which your strength is increasing is far beyond my expectations."

There was envy hidden in Lin Shanbai's eyes.

In just less than two months, Lin Shanbai could be said to have watched Anle grow from a somewhat weak teenager to a man with a strong body, full of energy, and even able to kill an orthodox cultivator.

He couldn't find any reasonable explanation for his rapid progress except that he was an extraordinary genius.

How could he not be envious?

It is precisely because of this that Lin Shanbai decided not to hide it anymore, he said slowly.

"In fact, there is no such thing as evil that can be possessed by evil spirits."

"It's all just a lie woven by the witch doctor and the village chief."

As soon as these words were spoken, Anle's face changed immediately, and he subconsciously turned his head to look beside him.

The bright red skirt remains.

As if she had sensed his gaze, Xiao Xiaohong became restless and the chillness around her body grew stronger.

It was about to attack him.

Fortunately, Anle's nerves were tempered and his facial expression remained unchanged.

He continued to turn his head to look at Bai Shanghai's head, then moved his head back as if nothing had happened.

This prevented a tragedy from happening.

The woman in red froze in place.

Her remaining instincts were unable to judge the current situation, and her pretty face was filled with confusion.

After a while, it returned to its original harmless attitude.

"Hey, why is it a bit cold?"

Lin Shanbai muttered to himself, turned his head and looked twice, but found nothing unusual, so he continued.

"The villagers were possessed by evil spirits because the witch doctor used hallucinogenic herbs to poison the chosen people. When the patients were sent to him for treatment, he increased the dosage again."

“So, almost every person who is possessed by evil spirits cannot be saved.”

"Of course, they have their reasons for doing so."

Anle guessed the answer: "Because... a monster?"

"Exactly."

Captivity!

After hearing these words, Anle thought of this word first.

The villagers of Chenjia Village are like pigs and sheep kept in captivity by monsters.

When they are mature, they will be slaughtered.

No wonder all those who are possessed by evil spirits are young and middle-aged men!

No wonder the witch doctor had that reaction before he died!

But is the purpose of the monsters keeping the villagers captive just for eating?

Anle expressed doubts about this.

At this time, he finally figured out why the monster was dissatisfied with the two "sacrifices" Chen Ergou and Chen Xiaosi.

They were not the ones who were supposed to be chosen at all.

But I ran into Xiao Xiaohong that night, and I was really possessed!

The witch doctor may not have noticed, or he may have discovered it but didn't expose it, and just let them go.

This is what happened next.

******

In the courtyard temporarily occupied by Ziyun Sect.

Tang Lan's face became more and more gloomy.

In just a few days, two fellow apprentices disappeared.

One of them is Bai Shanghai, whom the master values ​​very much.

Why did Tang Lan always tolerate Bai Shanghai's extraordinary behavior before? Wasn't it because of this?

As a result, he also disappeared?

This cast a cloud of uneasiness over Tang Lan's heart.

Putting aside the current crisis, her master's evaluation of her would inevitably be lowered when she returned to the sect.

"Sister."

Wan Yinhua spoke carefully.

"Do you really believe what the hunter said?"

"Are there any monsters nearby?"

Hearing the question from her junior sister, Tang Lan forced a gentle smile and explained.

"He shouldn't have the guts to lie to us. I used my inspiration to search the area around the yard and found that he was the only one left. There was no sign of An Le."

Tang Lan thought he was cautious enough.

"Also, blood stains can't be faked."

"Shang Hai must have encountered a powerful enemy, which left such traces. Of course, this blood may also be An Le's."

When talking to Wan Yinhua, her attitude was surprisingly humble.

"It's such a pity."

Wan Yinhua felt sorry for Anle's death.

Suddenly, a guess emerged in her mind -

Is there a possibility that Anle killed Senior Brother Bai?

As soon as this thought came to her mind, she dismissed it and even found it a little ridiculous.

Bai Shanghai is a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi training, and he also has the Purple Cloud Shield bestowed upon him by his master to protect him. How could he be hurt by a young hunter from a small mountain village?

It’s simply a fantasy!

Shaking his head, Wan Yinhua asked again.

"By the way, what was Senior Brother Bai doing in his yard?"

"Do I need to think about it? I guess they don't want him to join the sect, so they have evil intentions..."

Zhang Ren, a male cultivator who had always had little presence, sneered.

He usually doesn't get along with Bai Shanghai, so of course he won't say anything nice.

Covering her mouth lightly, Wan Yinhua's beautiful eyes slightly widened, and she asked in surprise: "Senior Brother Bai is so vicious?"

Tang Lan looked at her junior sister's expression and felt a chill in her heart.
