The Secret History of Xuanmen

Chapter 188 Soul Eater
When I saw these nearly a thousand wandering corpses, my head exploded with a bang.

The scene was extremely shocking, with countless corpses standing densely.Although they were dead, they were uniform, like soldiers on call at any time.

In addition, their skin and flesh were swollen, and their sunken heads were even more bulging, as if they were breathing through their heads. How weird was that picture.

At this time, the group of wandering corpses we were following had already entered the line, and Chen Anbang also pointed to the group of corpses, motioning for me to insert them.

I immediately understood, followed him and carefully squeezed into the crowd of corpses.

We did not stand on the periphery, but entered the middle position. From the angle we stood, we could just see the situation inside the temple.

I saw that the inside of the temple was not large and simple, but strangely, there was no water inside, and even a few oil lamps were lit, which looked similar to the temple built outside. Communicate with the outside world.

I continued to look, and finally my sight stopped on a huge stone.

This is a rectangular stone, it looks natural, but it is so square, I don't know if it has been polished or it is born with this shape.

And the reason why I was attracted by this big rock was not because it was so mysterious, but because there was nothing else in this temple except it.

For a while, I was extremely puzzled, what is the purpose of this underground temple?Need so many weird corpses to guard?

I looked at Chen Anbang suspiciously, but he suddenly bent his back slightly, lowered his head, and made exactly the same movements as those corpses.

At the same time, I heard the sound of water coming from not far away. It seemed that someone was coming. Like Chen Anbang, I held my breath and concentrated, pretending to be one of the corpses.

Sure enough, after a while, two figures swam over.

I looked out of the corner of my eye and found that the visitors were not wandering corpses changing guards, but Lu San and the skinny man from the Eight Corps Gate.

These two people are surrounded by a huge vortex, which is the effect of water-repelling beads. The water-repelling beads are made of whale swim bladders, which can slowly release the oxygen stored in them, forming a cyclone to isolate the river water, and avoiding water. Function, as long as it can move like on the ground in the vortex of water-repelling beads.

Soon the two came to the front of the group of corpses. They stood there and did not check the corpses one by one. Naturally, they did not find me and Chen Anbang.

Suddenly, the skinny man at the Eight Corps Gate excitedly said: "Master Lu, I didn't lie to you, did I just say that I can smell the large-scale corpses below?"

Seeing the thin man's attitude as if he had grasped at a straw, he presumably wanted to use this secret to exchange lives with Lu San.

Lu San nodded, and said: "It's true, there are eight hundred Taoist sects in the world, and it is true that each sect has its own unique knowledge. Although your Eight Corpse Sect is not a famous sect, your perception of corpses is indeed at its peak."

With Lu San's approval, the thin man showed a proud expression subconsciously, and said: "Master Lu, these corpses are extraordinary at first glance, and they are a great hidden danger to Longjing Village. I discovered this secret for you. Can you release me now?"

Lu San didn't answer him directly, but said: "Boy, then you said that these people are obviously dead, why are they still guarding here as if they have thoughts? Someone secretly used the technique of expelling corpses?"

The thin man sniffed with his nose, stared at one of the corpses for a while, then pointed to his forehead and said, "It's Soul-devouring Gu insects, they have eggs of Soul-devouring Gu insects in their heads. You just need to control the mother Insects, you can control this group of corpses."

Lu San was surprised: "Is there such a method of controlling corpses?"

The thin man proudly said: "That is, Master Lu, you Lu Banmen are the best in the world in carpentry and victorious skills, but you may really not understand the control of corpses. The soul-eating Gu worms come from the Western Regions, and it is said that they need to be eaten raw 81 Only a personal soul can raise a soul-devouring mother worm. Not to mention you, I have never seen a soul-devouring Gu worm in the eight corpse sects."

Suddenly, Lu San took out a glass bottle, and saw a thumb-sized black long worm in the bottle, and the face of this black worm looked like a human face, extremely strange.

Lu San showed a sinister smile, and said to the thin man, "Is it the Soul Eater you are talking about?"
