The two found a relatively flat open space in the forest, put down the baggage behind them, found some dry branches around them, and built a small fire.
It was the first time for the little snow wolf to see such a dense jungle, and he ran around in the forest excitedly. However, it only played in the forest near the two of them and did not go too far.
Not long after the two sat down, the black donkey jumped out of the forest dragging a deer.
When the little snow wolf saw the black donkey, he immediately ran to it very happily, wagging his little tail and pulling the prey from the black donkey's mouth, looking like he wanted to help.
But it was too small, only a little bigger than the head of the roe deer, so how could it be of any help?
The black donkey placed the dead deer next to the fire and lay down on the ground, looking as if he was exhausted.
Bu Xiaotian and Letian had long known what the black donkey was capable of. Without looking at the pretentious black donkey, they mentioned the roe deer and went to find a place to deal with it.
The little snow wolf, on the other hand, kept stretching out its two front paws to press the black donkey's body.
Although Little Snow Wolf didn't have much strength and could only make Hei Donkey feel a slight sensation, Hei Donkey still looked like he was very useful.
By the stream, Bu Xiaotian and Letian were taking out the internal organs of the deer and removing the hair.
"Did your black donkey really treat my Silver Moon as a bastard?"
But it was Lotte who was shaving the roe deer who spoke. Silver Moon was the name he gave the little snow wolf.
Bu Xiaotian glanced over there and replied:
"It was obviously your little snow wolf who came up to me, how could you open your eyes and tell lies?"
"this…"
Lotte thought that this was indeed the case and could not refute it. Instead, he said with a bit of hatred:
"This little guy doesn't live up to expectations! When will he understand that he is a wolf and not a dog?"
Hearing Lotte's words, Bu Xiaotian looked slightly weird and said:
"It's not too bad if your little snow wolf thinks it's a dog. After all, wolves and dogs are pretty much the same. I'm afraid it might think it's a donkey!"
Thinking that those two guys, one big and one small, staying together every day, might actually have the phenomenon Bu Xiaotian mentioned, I suddenly felt anxious:
"Keep your donkey away from my little Yinyue from now on. If you really mislead little Yinyue, I won't be able to spare it!"
"hehe."
Seeing Lotte's look, Bu Xiaotian chuckled and said:
"Don't worry, no matter who it hangs out with, the wolf nature in its heart cannot be changed. It's just because it's still small now. When it grows up, it should show its true nature.
Besides, it was obviously your little snow wolf that went to the black donkey on its own. If you want to blame it, it can only blame itself. How can you put all the blame on the black donkey? "
"..."
Lotte is speechless.
The two quickly finished processing the roe deer and returned to the clearing with dozens of cleaned pieces of meat.
Little Snow Wolf had fallen asleep leaning on the black donkey. Perhaps he heard the two people's movements. Little Snow Wolf's ears moved, and he slowly opened his eyes and saw the two people who had returned.
What happened next was the same as every time they took a break, grilling meat, eating meat, and throwing bones.
Late at night.
The fire in the center of the clearing burned quietly, with the crackle of branches popping from time to time.
Bu Xiaotian and Letian sat cross-legged by the fire and meditated quietly, but they both maintained a trace of vigilance, ready to deal with possible wild beasts and dangers at any time.
The surroundings became quiet, and even the chirping of insects and the roars of wild beasts became much quieter.
Suddenly, Bu Xiaotian and Letian opened their eyes at the same time.
wrong! It's so quiet around here!
Even on a quiet night, it's not so quiet.
The two stood up and looked around.
It was late July, and there was only a thin curved hook left in the sky, emitting dim moonlight, which looked even dimmer among the dense forest.
Under the dim light of the fire, there were only tall black shadows in the surrounding trees, like ancient gods and demons, watching them motionless.
In the dark jungle, a white shadow flashed past the corner of Bu Xiaotian's eyes.
Bu Xiaotian turned his head sharply, but saw nothing, as if it was just his hallucination.
Letian also looked in the direction Bu Xiaotian was looking, but except for the faint trees, there was nothing else.
Just when Lotte wanted to ask, Little Snow Wolf, who had woken up at some point, also rushed over there, growling in a low and suppressed voice.
The black donkey also stood up and looked in the same direction. Although he made no sound, his eyes were full of vigilance.
Looking at their movements, Letian also knew that they must have noticed something, so they stopped being distracted and secretly concentrated on vigilance.
Sure enough, after a while, the white shadow Bu Xiaotian saw before appeared again in the jungle ahead.
But neither Bu Xiaotian nor Letian noticed how it appeared. There was no movement when it appeared, and it just appeared out of thin air in the woods a few feet away in front of them.
It can be vaguely seen that it is the shadow of personality, but its appearance cannot be seen.
This time the white shadow did not disappear immediately, but slowly floated towards the forest.
Bu Xiaotian and Letian looked at each other and immediately followed. Black Donkey and Little Snow Wolf also followed closely behind them.
Just as it appeared silently, Bai Ying's movements also made no sound at all, as if a light smoke passed directly through the dense trees.
There was still no other sound around, only the trees rustling softly as Bu Xiaotian and Lotte passed by.
The white shadow that suddenly appeared was very strange. No matter how Bu Xiaotian and Letian chased it, it kept a distance of about three feet from them. But when they stopped and stopped chasing, the white shadow would appear again. Stop and wait for them, seeming to guide them somewhere.
Finally, the two of them followed the white shadow for about half an hour. When they arrived at a small open space, the white shadow in front of them suddenly disappeared without any warning.
The two of them hurried to the place where Bai Ying disappeared and searched around, but found no clues.
Just when the two of them had no clue, they saw the little snow wolf pawing at the soil with its paws at their feet.
They immediately understood that something was buried underground.
Letian lifted up the little white wolf and pinched out a magic formula. He saw the soil under their feet slowly churn up.
The two of them took a few steps back to get out of the way. They saw the soil rolling up all around, and not long after, a large pit with a radius of half a foot appeared on the spot.
Suddenly, something seemed to be exposed from the bottom of the pit, but it was really hard to see clearly in the dim night.
Letian quickly threw away the original magic formula in his hand and replaced it with a new one.
I saw a trace of light slowly appearing on his fingers, gradually illuminating the bottom of the pit.
After seeing the situation at the bottom of the pit clearly, both of them were shocked. There was actually a skeleton buried here!
At this time, only half of the skull's head and a few white bones were exposed, and the other parts were still buried in the soil.
In the middle of the night, in this silent mountain forest, a skeleton was suddenly dug up, which was really scary.
Fortunately, neither of them were ordinary people. Although they were a little surprised, they were not afraid.
Bu Xiaotian also pinched out a magic formula, and the soil at the bottom of the pit slowly moved away, revealing the entire skeleton.
Lotte on the side also kept the light on, allowing the two of them to see clearly what was going on at the bottom of the pit.
At this time, Bu Xiaotian's technique changed, and the entire skeleton slowly floated up out of thin air, floating out of the pit and landing on the flat ground beside it.
After moving the bones from the bottom of the pit up, the two of them looked at the light in Lotte's hand carefully.
This skeleton is petite in size, probably about fourteen or fifteen years old. It is the skeleton of a woman.
Looking closely, the two found a total of nine pitch black spikes on her skull, torso and limbs, one on the top of her head, four on her spine, and one on each of the big bones of her limbs.
It looked like he had been crucified alive!
Bu Xiaotian took off the long nails one by one and held them in his hands with his zhenqi. He did not dare to touch the weird-looking nails rashly.
The two looked carefully and saw that the long nail was about two inches long and had strange patterns engraved on it.
Bu Xiaotianbu knew this thing, but Letian beside him couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Soul-locking nails!"
Bu Xiaotian looked at Letian who looked shocked and asked:
"Do you know this thing?"
Letian calmed down his excitement, nodded and explained:
"This is a soul-locking nail unique to the Holy Soul Mountain lineage of the Demon Sect. In conjunction with the secret method of the Demon Sect, this thing can be nailed into other people's bodies alive, first into the limbs, then into the spine, and finally into the heavenly spirit.
In this way, the seven souls of a person can be nailed to the body and the three souls can be extracted. It is also an extremely cruel method among the demon sect. It is the method used by the demon sect to punish disciples who have committed serious crimes, so that they will never be reincarnated.
The three extracted souls will be refined into various magic weapons, which are stronger than ordinary magic weapons. "
"Is there such a vicious thing in the world?"
After listening to Letian's words, Bu Xiaotian couldn't help but frown deeply. Thinking of the torture this woman suffered before she died, he couldn't help but feel sympathy and intolerance in his heart.
"Well, you should know that people have three souls, namely the heavenly soul, called fetal light, the five-element soul, called Shuangling, and the earthly soul, called Youjing.
There are seven souls, one of which is the swallowing thief, which can eliminate harmful things in the human body and eliminate evil spirits and evil spirits; the second is the corpse dog, which can sense changes in the surroundings after a person falls asleep; the third is the removal of impurities, which can remove useless things from the body. The fourth is the odorous lung, which controls the number of breaths of a person. If the stinky lung is lost, the qi will be exhausted; the fifth is the sparrow yin, which controls the reproduction of a person. If the sparrow yin is lost, the person cannot be humane; the sixth is non-toxic, which can eliminate cold and heat in the body. The poison, and years of hard work will exhaust the non-poison, so it will cause illness due to overwork; the seventh is Fuya, which is in charge of the other six souls, and is the first of the seven souls, so it is called the life soul of human beings. "
Lotte explained a lot, paused, and then continued:
"The three souls can exist without the body, while the seven souls are attached to the human body. When the body dies, the soul will be dispersed.
But this soul-locking nail forcibly imprisoned the seven souls of a person in his body, causing him to suffer torture and die.
If I guessed correctly, the white shadow just now was the manifestation of the seven souls imprisoned by the dead woman. "
Bu Xiaotian also knew what these three souls and seven souls were saying. Listening to Letian's guess, he nodded, but he couldn't help but guess the identity of this woman.
Could it be that she was a member of the Demon Cult during her lifetime?
But what big mistake did she make that warranted such cruel punishment?
Seeing Bu Xiaotian's expression, Letian understood what he was thinking and said:
"She is not necessarily a member of the Demon Sect. Ever since Qiu Tianren, the leader of the Demon Sect, was killed on the Demon Mountain, the Demon Sect has fallen apart and rarely punishes sinners in this way.
The people of the Demon Cult were cruel and vicious, and it was possible that someone had taken her three-soul refining magic weapon. "
"How could someone use such a cruel method to refine a magic weapon? Wouldn't such a harmonious thing be punished by God?"
"Actually, there is no such thing. Strictly speaking, the sword 'Ganjiang' on your body was made in a similar way to 'Moye'."
Seeing Bu Xiaotian's expression of disbelief, Letian said slowly:
"However, Gan Jiang and Mo Xie jumped into the furnace to sacrifice their own three souls, instead of extracting other people's souls for sacrifice. This created a poignant story that has been passed down through the ages."
