The carriage moved very quickly, and in just half a day, they arrived at Xiushan County.
Probably because of Wen Guying's status, everything is convenient.
Soon, they met Wen Guying's junior brother Guan Zhongqiu.
He didn't look like a monk. This was Li Chuan's first impression of Guan Zhongqiu.
He was quite large, but skinny to the point of being skinny, so his bones looked a little twisted. The eyebrows are high, the eye sockets are sunken, and the nose and mouth are very big.
It can be seen that he was once a heroic man
Wen Guying introduced: "Brother Li is the heir of the "Wen Jing". If you tell him about Xialin Village, maybe he can find some clues."
After hearing this, Guan Zhongqiu still stood with his head down, motionless.
Wen Guying's tone was calm: "If what you said about the 'White Walkers' is true, then in the current situation, they have escaped, and no one will do anything to them. If you kill a whole village, it is equivalent to killing them in vain. You ask me to go I will not kill that old woman and child, I am not a casual cultivator, I must have evidence."
Guan Zhongqiu finally spoke, but what he said surprised Li Chuan. He asked: "Are you going to let the heir of "The Classic of Patterns" compile a proof for me? How much benefit have you given him?"
Wen Guying denied it, "Of course not, how could you belittle Brother Li like that?"
Li Chuan felt that Wen Guying was so generous this time, first sending the carriage, then the magic weapon, and explaining the whole story of Huan Shuo so clearly, that he might not have wanted to make him deceive.
After all, a master of Xuanmen is a riddler for everyone.
Guan Zhongqiu obviously didn't believe it either, and said: "The descendants of "The Classic of Patterns" are good at repairing all things. You really want to find out the truth..."
"The heirs of "The Classic of Patterns" can repair all things because they can see the original appearance of things. I asked Brother Li to find out whether they are human beings or ghosts. You can tell at a glance." Wen Guying still had no trace of emotion in his tone. anger.
"Since you took the trouble to bring him here, let me tell you the truth once, senior brother. After listening to this, maybe you will regret interfering in this matter." Guan Zhongqiu finally looked at Li Chuan: "38 years ago, I traveled down the mountain and heard about embroidery. There were demons and ghosts in the mountain county, so I came here to destroy the evil ghosts. I thought the scenery here was good, so I stayed for a few days and met Su Niang."
"Su Niang's qualifications are too poor to cultivate immortality, so I found a few ways to change my bones."
"I pulled out Su Niang's soul and kept it in a Horcrux. After her new body grew, I poured the soul into it. As for her original body, she stayed in Xialin Village. Others would only think that She's dead."
Guan Zhongqiu said expressionlessly, "Something happened in the middle, I failed, and Su Niang's soul was gone. I wanted to pay homage to her, and thought of her body being buried in Xialin Village, so I came there again. There, I saw Su Niang. Mom, she is alive. Except that she has no memory of being in the Horcrux, but has the memory of living in Xialin Village for the past two years, her speech and behavior are exactly the same as my Su Niang."
Li Chuan felt that this person was really crazy.
"I took her back to the sect, but no one saw her problem. I invited soul masters, ghost cultivators, and immortals, but no one saw her problem. I was happy in my heart, thinking that she was really a prime mother, except for one thing. His soul can no longer be extracted."
"In order to finally verify this," Guan Zhongqiu's tone and expression did not change, "I took other people in Lin Village and conducted experiments."
crazy!
Just kill him!
"I first found a dying old man, but the soul extraction failed."
"I found a middle-aged man, failed."
"I found an eight-year-old child, and the soul was successfully extracted. I stayed by his body. After one night, he woke up, but became stupid and unable to control his body freely. At the same time, his soul was still in the Horcrux. , I had no choice but to teach him the method of soul cultivation."
"And when I tried to extract the soul from his original body again, I failed."
"I experimented a few more times and finally found the rules. When people in Xialin Village reach the age of twenty, their souls will be replaced by White Walkers, and they will never be able to draw out their souls."
"I taught the souls of those whose souls I extracted, but they resented me. When the truth was revealed to them, they were unwilling to believe it, and even united to kill me."
"I didn't guard against them, and their souls were severely injured, and they died because of it. I decided to end this matter before I died. You all know what happened next."
Li Chuan couldn't help but said: "Is there a possibility that you are wrong?"
"It's impossible." Guan Zhongqiu said firmly.
"Then even if the White Walkers take over their bodies as you said, what is the purpose of the White Walkers? If they don't claim to be kings, fight for hegemony, or make trouble, just to live an ordinary life?" Li Chuan still thinks Guan Zhongqiu is crazy. , after all, according to him, this matter is not that difficult to verify.
Wouldn't it be enough to show the person possessed by the alien ghost and his extracted soul to other monks?
Now that everyone is dead, the so-called soul cultivators no longer exist. It was clear that there was no proof of his death, and he was just waiting for him, the heir of the "Wen Jing", to make up a reason.
If his life was not involved and he wanted a few magic weapons, he would just make it up.
He is a craftsman and does not make this kind of money.
Heartbroken, he took the carriage out of his sleeve pocket and returned it to Wen Guying, "I can't do this."
"Your junior brother is killing people. Even if according to what he said, everyone over the age of twenty will become a ghost. So what are the people whose souls were extracted by him before the age of twenty? Does teaching them soul cultivation count as repairing it? Monks don't have to do it. Do you treat people as human beings?”
Wen Guying did not take the carriage and said, "Brother Li, let's go see Su Niang and her granddaughter first."
Li Chuan didn't move.
"Don't worry, if they have no problems, I will keep them safe for the rest of their lives." Wen Guying saw Li Chuan's thoughts and smiled bitterly, "I didn't know that my junior brother did such a shocking thing to test his ideas. He really deserves to die. , but regarding the White Walkers, we need Brother Li’s help in investigating.”
"Your junior brother is crazy. Can you believe what a madman says?" Li Chuan began to think that Wen Guying was also crazy.
"Just think that I won't give up." Wen Guying pleaded.
Li Chuan thought for a while and asked: "Then you said that Su Niang's soul can't be extracted. Isn't this an obvious abnormality? Didn't they find any problem with the soul master, ghost cultivator and immortal?"
Wen Guying replied: "Her three souls and six souls are the same as those of ordinary people, but they can't be extracted. So we speculated at that time that maybe Xialin Village had a special constitution, or that her ancestors had intermarryed with gods and ghosts... I don't know what he wanted to do for her. Su Niang is cultivating immortality, so it’s about beating her soul.”
He sighed deeply and said to Guan Zhongqiu: "Junior brother, you are really, really..."
Guan Zhongqiu was unmoved: "I have already decided to die. It is Senior Brother Wen who has to intervene."
