"Xin'er, come and take a look." Zhu Xingli waved to Lin Xin.

Lin Xin took out the small bronze mirror on his waist, pulled his scissored fingers and took a bite.

"Aww!" Junior Brother Jian screamed, and quickly drew a talisman on the back of the bronze mirror with his fingers, then was thrown aside, holding up his injured finger in aggrieved manner.

The scene in the bronze mirror gradually turned positive, and the face in the mirror suddenly disappeared. Move the mirror to the vicinity of the coffin, find the soul that is not wandering, but can see the soul that has not been separated from the corpse. When a mortal dies, his soul will be separated, his soul ascends to heaven, and his soul goes to earth with his body.

The facial features of the three corpses are intact, and the skin has not collapsed. "The soul is gone, but the soul is still there. I can't survive, but I can still reincarnate."

"Where did you find your son?" Zhu Xingli asked the three of them where the accident happened, and without stopping, he led his disciples into the mountains to find it.

The mountain for picking herbs is thirty miles east of the town. There are cliffs, jagged rocks, and tall trees that block out the sun. Zhu Xingli found a flat ground, took out a box of cinnabar and a jade pen, and began to set up the formation.

"Master, is it really a Soul-swallowing Gu carving?" Jian Zhong found a piece of herbal leaves to wrap his injured finger.

The mountains are silent, and in late spring, there are no birds and insects, only the rustling of the mountain wind blowing through the treetops.

Lin Xin was looking around with his unexpired mirror, and he climbed up a tall round stone in twos and twos, and Shen Lou followed him with a good step, "Why did you bite your junior's finger when you drew the talisman?"

"It hurts to bite yourself," Lin Xin laughed, and brought the mirror in front of Shen Lou, "Look, there is a vegetable leaf on your tooth."

Shen Lou looked over subconsciously, but the wandering spirit of a wild boar appeared in the mirror.

"Hahahaha..." Lin Xin couldn't help laughing, Xindao Shen Lou in his youth was really fun, much easier to deceive than when he was in his twenties.

Shen Lou took a step away and blocked the edge of the stone to prevent him from falling when he laughed, "Next time you can bite my hand."

"I can't bear it." Lin Xinzheng smiled, and casually said what was on his mind, and both of them were taken aback after speaking. Realizing that what he said was a bit ambiguous, Lin Xin rubbed his nose, turned around and jumped off the rock to make trouble for Master.

The cinnabar array was one zhang square, and when the last stroke was completed, Zhu Xingli took out a piece of deer glass and asked Lin Xin to place it in the eye of the array.

There were ghostly symbols all over the floor, and he didn't say where they were the eyes of the formation, so Lin Xin put them in Gen's place without hesitation. As soon as it landed on the ground, it seemed as if volcanic magma had cracked the ground, and the red light spread around Luli as the center, lighting up the entire magic circle in a few breaths.

The souls of the sporadic wild animals seen in the shadow mirror quickly floated towards the formation, and a figure flashed across the gap like a white horse. When I looked again, Lin Xin's own face was reflected in the mirror, and the talisman had expired. Looking at it with the naked eye, Zhu Xingli's large formation was getting brighter and brighter, but there was no movement. But Lin Xin knew that the souls who had died in the mountain for less than seven days were all gathered into the formation.

The soul-gathering array will make the dead soul show the aura of a living soul. If there is a soul-eating monster, these souls should be able to attract it.

"Are there Gu carvings in the Northern Territory?" Lin Xin was quiet for a while, and then couldn't help but move closer to Shen Lou.

A hundred years ago, the Soul-swallowing Gu sculptures were flooded like locusts. After these years of hunting, they have almost disappeared, and it is difficult to meet them even if they appear occasionally. In his previous life, he had only seen a Gu sculpture once, and it was still in the desert. I don't have much hope for today's monster-hunting operation, and it will probably disappoint Master who wants to see something new.

"Yes," Shen Lou answered succinctly. The tragedy in Dahuang's family was caused by Gu Diao. How did you die?"

"He is not eaten by gu carvings." Lin Xin curled his lips.

"How do you know..." Before he finished speaking, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the mountain, flying sand and rocks around, branches and leaves flying, Shen Lou immediately dragged Lin Xin to his side.

"Wow—" A neigh that resembled a baby's cry pierced sharply through the ear bones, and the heavy black wings swept across the place where Lin Xin was standing just now, and the strong wind pushed Lin Xin hard, and he fell into the Shenlou in the arms.

"Oh, I didn't stand firmly." Lin Xin apologized without sincerity, took the opportunity to rub his face on Shen Lou's shoulder and neck, and was about to stand up, but was caught by Shen Lou, jumped onto the Yu Yuan sword and soared into the air.

The monster was heading straight for the Soul Gathering Formation, but it turned around when it saw Lin Xin and Shen Lou who were fresh and delicious on the way.

Yu Yuan's Sunset Sword turned into an afterimage in the air and fluttered to Zhu Xingli's side. Zhu Xingli slapped the two apprentices with bright eyes, "Chonger, come on!"

"Ah?" Before he could see what kind of weight it was, he was pushed out by the master just like that.

It has a carved body with brown flower feathers, a beast head with horns, and a sharp mouth as round as a bamboo tube exposing an empty black hole. It is exactly the strange beast mentioned in the ancient book-the soul-swallowing Gu carving!

Jian Zhong was pushed to the back of Gu Diao's buttocks, so he had no choice but to lift his foot and kick it up, so as to turn over by relay. This kick immediately attracted Gu Diao over, stopped chasing and killing Shen Lou and the two, turned around and roared at Jian Zhong.

The Ban Xia sword is not out of its sheath, the heavy sword and the Gu carving are circling in the air.

The Gu Eagle was more agile than ordinary birds due to its perennial pursuit of souls, but it turned back directly in mid-air, and its Zhang Xu long body was flying up and down like a butterfly. A palm patted on the long mouth that seemed to suck people's brains, and cut off a few feathers of the Gu carving.

"Yes, cut its neck off!" Lin Xin and Zhu Xingli leisurely watched the fun with their arms folded. They didn't look like they were going to slay demons, but rather came to walk their disciples.

She learned the heavy swordsmanship well, but Yujian was a little weak, unable to flexibly connect between Yujian and slashing monsters. Dodging the giant wings, jumped onto the back of the Gu Eagle, cut heavy and raised the sword to stab him, but unexpectedly, the Gu Eagle turned over suddenly, with huge sharp claws facing upwards, grabbing at his chest. It's too late to improve further!

"Shua—" A frost-like sword light struck, and firmly caught the claw. Shen Lou's figure was like electricity, and after blocking the sharp claw, he flashed to the outside without hesitation, let go and let the spirit sword stay in the air, Step on the sword with one foot, relay upwards, withdraw the sword and return to the hand. Flowing clouds and flowing water, all in one go.

"Eagle step!" Seeing Shen Lou's movements, Jian Zhong was taken aback.

Cultivators need to use flying swords to volley in the air, and fighting in the air can only be done at the moment of jumping off the sword. This move of stepping on the eagle is similar to the movement of an eagle stepping on the backs of other birds in the air to use its strength upwards. It is extremely difficult to practice.

Jian Zhong has not yet learned how to hold the sword in the air, but Shen Lou has already mastered the "Eagle Step" skillfully.

"Good boy," Zhu Xingli put away the spring marks that hadn't had time to make a move, crossed his arms again, and said angrily, "What kind of virtue did Shen Qirui accumulate to give birth to such a brilliant son!"

"That must be because Xuanguo Gong taught it well." Lin Xin said coolly.

"Bah, he'll teach a bird egg."

Shen Lou was not in a hurry to draw out his sword, and circled the Gu carving back and forth, "This thing is very flexible, you have to provoke it to strike, left."

"Oh!" Jian Zhong responded, and immediately swung his sword to the left, the Gu Eagle's big wings just swept towards him, and his sword cut off the front half.

"That's right," Shen Lou said lightly, swayed down, and hit the front of the Gu carving directly, the sword blade collided with the long beak that was comparable to gold and stone, sparking a string of sparks, "Cut its tail feathers, will it be cut in the void? "

"Yes!" Raising the knife in his hand, he swung his sword in the void, and a sword light as bright as lightning slashed towards the bird's tail in the void. Losing its tail, Gu Diao's body began to tilt, it was difficult to balance, it became more and more irritable, and with a long cry, it opened its sharp claws and grabbed Jian Zhong.

At this time, Shen Lou flew to a high place with Yujian, without help, Jian Zhong dodged in a panic, "What should we do now?"

Lin Xin raised his eyebrows. This Shen Qingque probably didn't intend to help to the end at first, but he couldn't help but start directing as soon as he made a move. It's amazing that his junior brother is still so obedient. This scene would never have happened in his previous life.

"Follow me." Sensing that Lin Xin was staring at him, Shen Lou made an extremely gorgeous swing in the air, leading the Gu sculpture to follow, and rushed straight to the soul-calling formation covered with cinnabar.

The soul-calling array suddenly became red, and a circle of beams of light rose into the sky. Shen Lou quickened his speed and escaped before the beam of light passed him, the red light trapped the Gu Eagle inside like a cage, making it hard to get out.

Jian Zhong was taken aback, there was actually a sleepy formation inside the summoning formation, how did Shen Lou see it

"Ah—" The monster with a broken wing and tail was struggling endlessly in the trap, Zhu Xingli immediately stepped forward, cut off the beast's head with a sword, and then sacrificed a palm-sized trap. The cage grew bigger in the air, covered the beast with a bang, and gradually shrunk.

This cage has a space stacking array, which can make things smaller, but it can only hold dead things and not living things.

"The cage?" Shen Lou recognized this thing as the Zhu family's treasure, the only one in the world, "Your uncle really loves your master."

"Is there? But every time my master goes home, he gets beaten." Lin Xin whispered to Shen Lou.

"Hahaha, I actually caught one for me, let's go and go home!" Zhu Xingli put the cage back into his sleeves, ordered him to get some water to wash away the cinnabar array, and patted happily Shen Lou's shoulder, "How do you know that I have formed a sleepy formation in the summoning formation, do you know the way of the formation?"

"Guess." Shen Lou avoided Zhu Xingli's slap and said concisely.

Zhu Xingli paused, bared his teeth and scolded the stinky boy, then turned to rub Lin Xin's head, but was also dodged, "Master, I just saw a human soul in the mirror."

"That's right, let me see." Zhu Xingli took the mirror and squeezed a formula, grabbed the void, and threw a human soul that had just been scattered from the soul-gathering array into the mirror image. The soul was very weak , indistinctly, barely discernible as a teenager.

"Isn't this the drug boy from the pharmacy!" Jian Zhong recognized it at a glance. He has an excellent memory, especially when he recognizes faces. He is the only one who remembers the four people present in the town at a glance.

Why is the soul that should have been eaten wandering outside

"It's probably the remnant soul that the gu eagle vomited out from belching after eating too much." Zhu Xingli said, letting go of the ignorant soul.

"Maybe it's farting... Cough..." Lin Xin said halfway, realizing that Shen Lou was present, and swallowed it.

The author has something to say: Small theater:

Lou Lou: What were you going to say

Xinxin: Maybe it was blown out when it kicked Thunderbolt Invincible II
