Chapter 96
96 The secret of the dark spirit and the late Qing Gong
“Eh?”
This was a little strange.
Li Chu had personally used his heart’s eye to survey the area last night, ensuring that there were no other corpses or spirits within a mile of the river.
If it said that there was someone underwater, where was it?
If her lingering spirit meant that her obsession had not disappeared, he could guess that she did not want to leave her corpse outside in the previous dream.
This time, Meng Taowu was really confused.
Li Chu felt that he should go and see her.
“I’ll go with you,” he said as he stood up.
Zhou Dafu raised his head and looked at Li Chu. He suddenly felt that although Li Chu was already very handsome normally, he was especially radiant at this moment.
A man who gives people a sense of security is so good.
Li Chu was dressed in green, carrying a sword pouch that contained the pure yang sword on his back as he walked out of deyun temple. Because they were going to town this time, they didn’t let the Fox girl follow them.
Zhou Dafu brought him to the mortuary behind the government office.
Even the Yamen runners of the county government were usually unwilling to get close to this place. This was because most of the corpses in the morgue did not die a good death. Each of them had their own evil ways. It was inevitable that she would feel a little uncomfortable after seeing it too much.
This female corpse stopped here, giving off the feeling that she was “the only outstanding one.”
Other than the slightly wrinkled silk that had been soaked in water, her hair was not messy, her face was delicate, and her skin was fair and smooth.
If it wasn’t for the fact that his body was cold and hard, he would have been sleeping.
However, it was precisely because it was so well-preserved that it was extremely strange.
It could be said that it lacked the self-awareness that a corpse should have.
“Little Daoist priest li, why don’t you just release it from purgatory?” Zhou Dafu asked.
What he meant was that he didn’t care about the meaning of the dream and directly dealt with the corpse.
It was indeed possible to deal with this kind of Yin soul that was not very powerful. Because even though the yin spirit had left the corpse and existed, it was still inextricably linked to the main body.
In fact, most exorcists would do the same in such a situation.
When Yin souls were not mature enough, they were very fragile.
Most of the time, the corpse could be directly cremated to make it dissipate. The more powerful ones would at most invite a monk or Daoist priest to recite the Scriptures a few times and perform a ritual. After ferrying the soul, they would cremate it.
This corpse did not rot even after death and did not float in the water. It was obviously one of the more powerful Yin souls.
However, no matter how strong it was, it was still a Yin spirit. If Li Chu had used the pure yang sword to slash at the corpse, it would probably not have been able to escape its fate.
This saved him a lot of effort and could also prevent the yin spirit from growing stronger.
It was indeed the most efficient and reliable choice.
However, Li Chu did not really want to do that.
The main reason why he was still here was that his obsession had not disappeared.
This kind of obsession was most likely not something that went against the natural order of things, or else it would become a vengeful spirit.
If possible, it would be best to help it complete it.
Let it enter the cycle of reincarnation in peace.
This was the best plan.
And,
Li Chu had a premonition.
It was as if the dark spirit would tell him something extremely important.
This premonition was very strong.
In this case, he couldn’t handle this matter rashly.
Let’s take ten thousand steps back and talk about it.
So what if he allowed this dark spirit to grow?
If it were to cultivate for a few more years, it would at most become a little ghost. If he cultivated for a few more decades, he might be on par with vengeful spirits. After a few hundred years, he might become a ghost general. If he was lucky, he could become a ghost king after cultivating for a thousand years, and a weak one at that.
It wasn’t like Li Chu had never encountered such weak ghost kings.
There was no need to mention what happened next.
“It’s best if we can find its obsession. Constable Zhou, you still haven’t confirmed the identity of this woman?” he said after a moment of silence.
Zhou Dafu shook his head and said,”I’m sure he’s not from Yuhang Town. Judging from his clothes, he’s not from the surrounding villages either.” Liuhua is connected to the state government to the West and the sea to the East. There are many passenger ships coming and going, so it’s hard for the officials to find out the origin of a person who drowned quietly like this.”
“Then I’ll stay here tonight and personally meet it,” Li Chu said.
Since he couldn’t find her life experiences, he could only start from the ghost itself.
Zhou Dafu was helpless and didn’t say anything more.
Since Li Chu was willing to put in more effort, he could only let him be.
……
It was still early in the morning and the dark spirit did not have the ability to appear during the day. Li Chu did not wait in the morgue.
There was one thing that should have been done long ago.
Back when he was fighting the Demon King, Li Chu had already felt that he was lacking in speed and had wanted to find a way to make up for it.
However, there were too many things to do later on, so it had been delayed until today.
His sword was already invincible, and now with the addition of the pure yang sword, Li Chu was unable to determine how strong his attack had become.
After cultivating the iron Skin technique, his defense had reached a level that he was rather satisfied with.
In terms of the divine soul, it would improve with the level, and Li Chu had never been afraid of spiritual attacks.
After learning the sunflower pressure point hand, he had gained another effective crowd control skill.
Attack, defense, spirit, control.
After some careful consideration, Li Chu felt that he was lacking in speed and recovery.
If he could fill in these two gaps, he could become a more qualified hexagonal warrior.
Such a self
He should be qualified to leave Yuhang Town.
Taking advantage of this gap, he walked past two streets and arrived at the miscellaneous books House, full of anticipation.
In the end, it wasn’t the old shopkeeper who came face to face, but a group of fanatical girls.
Now, the line in deyun temple during the day was very long, and the priority was to receive those who came because of the evil. It was difficult for the girls who went to Daoist priest li to get in the line.
Li Chu was often not in the temple recently. He had been waiting in line for a long time, so he might have seen an old man or a silly girl.
After the miscellaneous books House was the first to hang up a ” little Daoist priest Li’s favorite ” sign, it quickly became another place for girls to gather.
She didn’t expect her dream to come true today, meeting a wild Li Chu Qianqian.
“Little Daoist priest li-”
“It’s Alive!”
“……!”
Li Chu’s scalp went numb when he heard the scream.
Bad.
After a while, his Daoist robe was torn a few times, and he finally managed to get away with the help of the old shopkeeper.
The old shopkeeper directly closed the door, and the father and son leaned against the door and panted for a long time.
“I’m sorry, little Daoist li. Business has been getting better ever since I left with your name,” he said, turning his head. I just didn’t expect that it would be inconvenient for you to come.”
“It’s fine,” Li Chu waved his hand. you’ll get used to it.
The old shopkeeper caught his breath and asked with a smile, ” “What book are you looking for this time, Daoist priest li? Is it still a martial arts secret manual?”
“Yes.” Li Chu nodded.
The old innkeeper walked over and said with a smile, ” I don’t have many martial arts secret books in this small shop, and you’ve almost bought all of them. Hehehe, what type are you looking for this time? ”
I’m looking for two types, ” Li Chu said. the Kasaya that can increase speed and the one that can restore blood and heal injuries. Is that okay? ”
The old shopkeeper bent down and rummaged around for a long time before saying, ” “There shouldn’t be any blood recovery Pixiu. These are mostly high level cultivation techniques. This is just a small shop after all, how can I get in that kind of stuff?”
In other words, everything I have here is common goods.
Li Chu was slightly disappointed.
The old shopkeeper did not get up. He continued, ” there’s a Qinggong movement technique that focuses on speed. I wonder if it’s to your liking? ”
After saying that, he lifted up an old book as usual.
“Oh?”
Li Chu’s eyes lit up when he saw the title of the book.
