Chapter 441
No expression could be seen on the faces of these white-cloth malevolent entities, and no one could guess their thoughts, so everyone couldn't help but feel nervous.
But these white-cloth malevolent entities passed straight through them.
They gathered around the ashes of the black monster's corpse, motionless, as if they were having some kind of silent communication.
Then.
Whoosh! The largest white-cloth malevolent entity with several heads disappeared with a whoosh, and a large piece of white cloth fell to the ground.
Then the second, the third...
Finally, only the female white-cloth malevolent entity that had tried to communicate with everyone before remained at the scene.
This white-cloth malevolent entity floated in front of Xiong Gang, stood slightly for a while, and left before Xiong Gang could respond, then walked to Fu Liang Liang Jian's side and stood there straight.
Fu Liang Liang Jian didn't understand why.
He was just an ordinary person and had no connection with this thing; why did it have to pester him?
Fu Liang Liang Jian looked at the hollow part of the white-cloth malevolent entity's eyes, trying to greet this thing.
"You... hello?"
Whoosh! This white-cloth malevolent entity, like the other white-cloth malevolent entities, suddenly lost its support and fell to the ground like an ordinary bed sheet, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Phew, scared me to death."
Fu Liang Liang Jian felt fortunate in his heart, but for some reason, a sense of sadness arose in his heart for no reason.
Wu Xian saw all this in his eyes.
"Collect all these white cloths; these white cloths are very important and can help us survive."
He picked up the last piece of white cloth and handed it to Fu Liang Liang Jian.
"You take this one."
Fu Liang Liang Jian looked down at the white cloth, didn't think too much, and stuffed it into the snake-skin bag he carried with him.
Then.
Wu Xian walked to the ashes left by the black monster and dug out two silver incense burners and two pieces of Treasure-level malevolent incense from inside.
He didn't know the name of the black monster, but judging from the dropped products, its strength should not be underestimated; if it weren't for the help of the white-cloth malevolent entities and the marble girl, the best outcome for Wu Xian and the others would have been to escape from the monster in a sorry state.
Although there was no statue.
But silver malevolent incense could also be considered a good thing.
Using Treasure-level malevolent incense to offer to a Common-level god statue also had a probability of producing Treasure-level offering props.
After picking up the spoils.
Wu Xian didn't stop, but continued to walk a few meters deeper along the corner cavern.
Then he saw a large pit.
This large pit emitted an abnormal stench, the smell of which was far worse than a rural dry toilet in summer; it was piled with various scattered bones, clothes, jewelry, etc., and some rotting meat residue mixed in.
This place should be the black monster's lair.
The things at the bottom of the large pit should be the items left behind by those swallowed by the monster; this monster should only possess the ability to digest flesh and blood, and the rest of the things would be excreted from its body.
Wu Xian was silent for two seconds and turned to call Fu Liang Liang Jian over.
"Help me dig around in here and see if there's anything you're familiar with."
Fu Liang Liang Jian walked over, almost fainted from the smell, and his mood became more and more uneasy; he sensed the change in Wu Xian's attitude toward him, and even if Wu Xian didn't say anything, he vaguely guessed a terrible possibility.
So he lay by the large pit with the spider-leg spike and searched hard, his movements becoming more and more rough.
Searching and searching.
He found a mobile phone.
It was a flip phone with peeling paint, and there was a rabbit pendant on it.
Fu Liang Liang Jian was very familiar with this phone.
This was the birthday gift he personally picked out for his daughter more than ten years ago, before his family had an accident.
After his family had the accident.
People often came to the house to collect debts; once, Fu Liang Liang Jian really had nowhere to retreat, so he wanted to sell his daughter's phone for some money to ease the predicament.
But he was strongly opposed by his daughter.
Therefore, this matter was left unsettled.
A few days after this, his daughter wanted to play hide-and-seek with him, and then he never saw his daughter again. Since this phone appeared here, many things didn't need to be stated clearly.
Fu Liang Liang Jian couldn't think for a long time, his eyes wide open, and he couldn't say a word.
Wu Xian stood behind him.
"Looking at your reaction, I should have guessed right."
"You said the Labyrinth Will used your daughter to threaten you, which means your daughter also came to the underground labyrinth with you."
"Huang Debiao and Xia Caoqing came in together, and you and your daughter were not far apart, so the time you two entered the underground labyrinth should be the same, and the distance shouldn't be too far."
"And coincidentally at that time, Xiong Gang, who was near the Inverted Corpse Forest, also saved a young woman."
Xiong Gang was stunned after hearing this.
"You say Gao Qian is his daughter? That's not right, his surname is Fu, the two surnames are different, how could she be his daughter?"
Wu Xian sighed a long sigh.
"He disappointed his daughter, so she ran away from home; so many years have passed, such a small child couldn't live alone, is it hard to understand that she changed a surname after being adopted by others?"
"Gao Qian, Fu Qian, the tail sounds are the same."
Fu Liang Liang Jian suddenly became emotionally agitated, turned around and grabbed Wu Xian's collar, his eyes red and saliva spraying.
"You damn it, since you knew it long ago, why didn't you tell me?"
Wu Xian shook his head.
"First, I only had this conjecture and couldn't be sure if it was a coincidence; in order to verify the conjecture, I brought you to hunt this monster."
"Second, have you forgotten the ability of this black monster?"
"To hell with the ability, you..."
Fu Liang Liang Jian's words stopped halfway.
He understood what Wu Xian meant.
Wu Xian's eyelids closed slightly: "It seems you realized it; the ability of this monster makes people want to save people at all costs. If I told you your daughter might have died in the hands of this monster..."
"You would definitely die!"
In fact, long before killing this monster.
Wu Xian was not guessing, but certain.
The ones who told him the answer were those white-cloth malevolent entities.
The appearance of these white-cloth malevolent entities was a mystery, and all their behavioral logic was hard to explain, but when that female white-cloth malevolent entity stood in front of everyone and tried to say something, Wu Xian guessed the whole picture!
That monster could only swallow flesh and blood, not souls.
People swallowed by it would turn into wandering lonely ghosts, bound in the labyrinth and unable to be liberated, only able to act in the underground cavern by wearing a white cloth.
The white-cloth malevolent entities frolicking around the work-clothed man were not to torment him, but to prevent the work-clothed man from being swallowed by the monster, so when they saw Wu Xian and the others arrive, they felt relieved and knocked the work-clothed man unconscious, because at this time the work-clothed man no longer needed the protection of the white-cloth malevolent entities.
Based on this inference.
Wu Xian concluded that the large white-cloth malevolent entity with many heads was the old lady summoned by Zhao Zixuan! She died in the hands of the black monster in order to save people.
Perhaps it was precisely because it swallowed the old lady that the black monster was able to evolve and grow so many eyes, ears, mouths, and noses, because the black old lady herself had many heads!
And that white-cloth malevolent entity that tried to communicate with them...
Was Fu Liang Liang Jian's daughter!
Everything that happened afterward confirmed Wu Xian's conjecture.
When the monster died, these white-cloth malevolent entities lost their restraints and finally gained liberation, so they dissipated one by one out of thin air.
They might have gone to the Netherworld, or they might have turned into dust.
Suddenly.
Fu Liang Liang Jian frantically turned out the white cloth he had just put away.
Until now.
He realized what he had just missed.
His daughter's soul wanted to communicate with him at the end, but he couldn't hear his daughter's voice at all! "Ah... ah..."
In the dark cavern, the miserable wailing of a middle-aged man echoed.
