Black blood flowed from the corner of Yang Jin's mouth, and everyone's perception of his Fahai decreased rapidly until it disappeared.
Ma Shaochong took a step forward and touched Yang Jin's chest, indicating that his heartbeat had stopped and he was dead.
"Yang Jin committed suicide out of fear of crime. This traitor was given the advantage!" Wu Chengfa said bitterly.
Yang Jin knew that he had committed a serious crime. According to the Yunxiao sect's rules, traitors in serious crimes were punished with a month of wind, thunder and flames before being executed. He bit the teeth that concealed the poison beads and committed suicide.
Ma Shaochong poured out the items in Yang Jin's storage bag. There were not many spiritual stones and pills, and nothing unusual was found. Wei Geng ordered people to search Yang Jin's stone house carefully. Sure enough, he found the hidden storage bag under a tampered stone slab. , containing 70,000 spiritual stones, two first-grade magical instruments and a telegraph instrument to contact Shi Hongda.
Wei Geng also asked several Yunxiao Sect disciples who often gambled with Yang Jin. They all said that Yang Jin was impoverished due to losing money in his early years and had nowhere to borrow money. Later, he gradually changed to playing small games occasionally.
"It turns out that Shi Hongda took advantage of him, started by borrowing money for gambling, and finally bought it with spiritual stones!" Wei Geng said angrily.
…
The meeting hall on the second floor of Yunxiao Pavilion.
"Uncle Wei, the detailed situation on the way to Yicun..."
Xue Tong couldn't wait to ask. After he returned to Pingshan, he gambled casually in the casino. In order to prevent Yang Jin from escaping when the situation was bad, Wei Geng arrested him first, then notified Xue Tong and the three of them entered the compound in a big way.
Wei Geng interrupted Xue Tong's questioning and said: "Bao Shu was hacked to death by me. Of the two, Bao Shu was the chief culprit, and Ying Zongze was just an accomplice."
"Ying Zongze was injured under the attack of the Bronze Corpse Puppet, Ma Shaochong, and Zhu Qingling. I spared his life and let him return to Canglang Mountain. There is a huge difference between killing Houtian warriors and killing martial disciples, which can easily lead to a sect war. , letting Ying Zongze go is also to preserve evidence of survival, so that the Blood Sword Sect will know that it is wrong and cannot retaliate."
"Oh, what if Ying Zongze doesn't admit these things?" Xue Tong asked.
"Hehe, if he defaults on his debt, all he needs to do is activate "The Black Centipede Trial". He won't be allowed to talk nonsense, he can only admit it obediently." Wei Geng said confidently.
"The Black Centipede Test refers to using spiritual power to send a radiant black centipede into the sea of consciousness of the subject. If you lie during the interview, the centipede will explode in the sea of consciousness, making the person's life worse than death. The answer is It’s clear at a glance whether it’s true or false.”
"This technique is weaker than the "Soul Searching Technique" and cannot understand the mind of the person under investigation, but it is extremely effective during torture. The initiation of the Black Centipede Trial requires the approval of the sect and requires the use of innate-level masters." Wei Geng said. .
Xue Tong stuck out his tongue. He had read about the Soul Searching Technique in the Strange News. A master-level warrior could use it on practitioners whose mental strength was far weaker than his own. However, it was extremely difficult to control when casting the spell. If you were not paying attention, you would cast the spell. The person's own sanity may also be seriously damaged.
"What is a bronze corpse puppet? Master Wei knows how to refine corpses?" Xue Tong frowned slightly and asked.
It was difficult for him to connect the elegant and calm Wei Geng with the smoky corpse refining.
"Haha, that orc mummy is of extremely high quality and is not disgusting. You can just treat him as a human puppet." Wei Geng said.
"Uncle Wei is proficient in puppetry, where are you thinking?!" Zhu Qingling rolled her eyes at Xue Tong.
Xue Tong was busy, and only now he took a serious look at Zhu Qingling. A few years ago, he was still young, but now he is more than seventeen years old and full of energy, and he can truly appreciate Zhu Qingling's charm.
"Sure enough, she has beautiful face and beautiful figure, and a great figure..." He was thinking wildly when Zhu Qingling seemed to notice it and glared at him fiercely.
Xue Tong said hurriedly: "Uncle Wei is extremely thoughtful and considerate. It's amazing."
"Actually, you are the one who made the most of the effort! You are brave, resourceful, and thoughtful. You have obtained conclusive evidence and dug out the sect traitor." Wei Geng said with a smile on his face.
"It's okay, it's okay. I was taught by Senior Sister Zhu and only from the perspective of evidence collection can I accomplish this." Xue Tong patted the horse while being modest.
"Well, Qing Ling, your contribution is not small, and you should also rush less."
"Xue Tong, tell me how you killed Shi Hongda?" Wei Geng asked.
Xue Tong narrated the incident, omitting the section about the gray dots devouring the soul, and deliberately made the battle difficult and difficult in his narration.
"Well, I tell you to run away if you can't fight. Don't force yourself. It was not easy for you to kill Shi Hongda in the end. Now that we have killed people from the Blood Sword Sect, we must guard against retaliation. Chengfa, please inform everyone in the compound to be on guard. Suspend going out.”
"The four members of the Law Enforcement Hall will leave today and rush back to report to the sect." Wei Geng said.
"Xue Tong, have you arranged everything in Pingshan?" Wei Geng asked again.
"Well, the disciple has made arrangements and is ready to leave at any time."
…
In No. 6, West Ninth Street, the door to the inner courtyard was always open. This had never happened before. Dong Sanbiao was suspicious for a long time, and finally couldn't help but look for the "incense owner". As soon as he entered the door, he saw one in a conspicuous position in the hall. envelope.
"Wei Wuhuang" said in the letter that the family had to rush back immediately if something happened. Dong Sanbiao would handle all the inventory worth more than 2,000 yuan in Fulu Shop, and distribute 500 yuan to the Zhan brothers and sisters. The rest belonged to Dong Sanbiao and his brothers.
In the letter, Dong Sanbiao was instructed to submit this letter to Gang Leader Mo for reading, thanking the Longhu Gang for their care and concern, and hope to see you again.
Dong Sanbiao lived up to his trust and obeyed everything.
…
Xue Tong risked his life to infiltrate the Pingshan Gang to obtain important clues, offer suggestions, and seize key evidence. His heroic deeds were greatly appreciated by the senior leaders of the sect, and he received a high reward of 200 sect contribution points and 8,000 spiritual stones.
The Yunxiao Sect confiscated half of the 70,000 spirit stones stolen from Yang Jin's storage bag, and the remaining 35,000 were equally divided among Wei Geng, Zhu Qingling, Ma Shaochong, and Xue Tong.
The spirit stones and items in Shi Hongda's storage bag were worth five thousand. The bloodthirsty sword Xue Tong sold it to Jubao Pavilion at half price and received six thousand.
Xue Tong repaid Wei Geng's advance payment for opening the shop, and earned about 8,000 spiritual stones from the talisman business in seven months.
After the Pingshan battle, Xue Tong made a total of two hundred sect contributions and thirty-five thousand spiritual stones!
The Yunxiao Sect sent people to the Blood Sword Sect to submit documents, demanding severe punishment for the relevant warriors and tracking down the stolen goods. In addition to the meaning on paper, this move also had the meaning of preemptive strike to block the Blood Sword Sect's mouth and prevent them from continuing to entangle. .
…
Blood Sword Sect, Canglang Mountain.
Under the dim light stone lamp, three acquired warriors in the room were talking softly.
"Junior brother Bao died tragically, and junior brother Ying was seriously injured. The sect master ordered me to keep a low profile and stop causing trouble. What do you think?"
The white-browed old man who spoke was Bao Shu's senior brother Du Qingyun, who held a high position as the protector of the Blood Sword Sect.
"Old thief Wei Geng grabbed our pigtails and tried to kill us. We must not show weakness!" Yu Kui said.
"Nonsense, I'm asking what to do?" Du Qingyun frowned and said dissatisfied.
"Why don't we kill everyone in Pingshan, Donglai, Yuegu and other towns?" Yu Kui gritted his teeth.
"Fart! How can the Blood Sword Sect still hang out in Jiayuan if they kill people blatantly?" Du Qingyun cursed.
"Senior Brother Du, in my opinion, be patient for the time being and wait for an opportunity to strike in Hongzhou!" Liang Su, who had been silent, suddenly suggested.
"Oh" Du Qingyun couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
…
Xue Tong changed the "Thousand Talisman Book" in the Sutra Pavilion. The Hundred Talisman Book did not have the French text that matched the eight-layered talisman. The first four French texts in the Thousand Talisman Book were the same as the Hundred Talisman Book, with eight new additions.
"From now on, it will take some effort to obtain the French language, and there is no such thing as the Ten Thousand Talisman Scripture."
Another mental power book, "Shen Chi Jue", is also something Xue Tong urgently needs. Although his mental power is slowly growing, the spiritual cultivation technique can no longer meet his training needs. Xue Tong spent some time in the Jubao Pavilion to read the ancient books on Yuanshen's possession of the body and sojourn, and became more and more convinced that the gray spots in his head came from others and were slowly growing.
"If Gray Dot continues to draw spiritual power from my sea of consciousness, it will eventually blur my mind and take the opportunity to replace it. However, every time Gray Dot swallows the beast soul and soul, it feeds back and nourishes the sea of consciousness, making my spiritual consciousness stronger. , and why is this, is it a sojourn?”
"Sojourn usually occurs between different types of creatures. It is impossible for a person's spirit to take away the soul of an animal, and the soul of a monster beast cannot take away a person's spirit. Could it be that the soul of a super monster has penetrated into my head and is living in it? Consciousness sea?"
Xue Tongji Ling shuddered.
However, his strategy is also very simple. If Hui Dian absorbs spiritual power, he will stop practicing. If he doesn't, he will continue practicing. Anyway, he just doesn't let Hui Dian take advantage of him.
The first two levels of Shen Chi Jue can be mastered in one go. Xue Tong estimated that his mental strength is not low, and with the help of gray dots, he has already reached the second level.
He asked to see Wei Geng. In his impression, Wei Geng once mentioned that his strong mental power was very beneficial to the practice of drawing talismans and puppetry.
"Well, at the second level of the Shen Chi Jue, you can start practicing the Puppet Technique. The Puppet Technique costs money and effort. You can get a copy of "Puppet Curse Explanation" and I will explain and guide you. If it does not violate the rules, you are not an inner disciple, and I am not allowed to teach you. The sect’s rules and regulations for the martial arts.” Wei Geng said.
""Puppet Curse Solution" uses a spell to inject spiritual power into the puppet you want to control, so that it is no longer an inanimate doll. If the magic and spiritual power are strong enough, you can even directly seal the soul in the puppet's body."
"The improvement of the primary puppet's military power mainly relies on the tempering of drugs and the injection of mana. As the puppet grows and its spirit and intelligence improve, the puppet will gradually give birth to a soul, master the skills of mana refining, and absorb spiritual energy to practice independently."
"Puppets are similar to humans. The speed of cultivation and the level that can be achieved are closely related to innate factors. Puppets made of ordinary bones, earth, wood, metal and stone are destined to be unable to break through the bottleneck of martial arts."
"At worst, you need to use low-end spiritual materials to make puppets."
After Wei Geng finished speaking, he took out an ebony puppet about a foot tall and said, "This puppet is only for practice. When you have some success in unraveling the curse, you can try to get a real usable puppet. "
For half a month, Xue Tong came to Xiaodang Mountain every day and listened to Wei Geng's detailed interpretation of the essence of the Puppet Curse and the first three chapters.
The ebony puppet was exquisitely made, resembling a warrior. Xue Tong silently recited the puppet's mantra, and when the heat reached the point he waved his hand lightly, and an invisible spiritual power hit the puppet. After the impact, it dispersed and entered its body without any trace. Xue Tong soaked the puppet in the spiritual liquid for ten days. After thousands of attempts, the puppet finally moved slightly, as if it had received a very weak spiritual power.
Two months later, the induction between Xue Tong and the puppet strengthened. He wrapped his thoughts and spread them on the surface of the puppet. As the puppet received more thoughts, the ebony puppet was able to wave a few unfamiliar moves according to Xue Tong's pre-planned movements. Lower arm.
Now, what Xue Tong needs to do is to make a real puppet into a powerful helper like a bronze corpse puppet.
