Chapter 454

"I... I... I don't know, I really don't know!"

When the scene inside the courtyard was revealed, Master Mu was so terrified his face turned deathly pale, his body trembling violently, and patches of yellow fur began to emerge.

Compared to a failure in hospitality or a slip-up in arrangements, he feared even more being misunderstood by his benefactor as a traitor working from the inside.

He had sought his official recognition from Li Zhuiyuan; if Li Zhuiyuan were to deny him, he would revert back to what he once was.

Li Zhuiyuan looked at Master Mu and said, "You may return to Lijiang now."

With a "thud," Master Mu knelt before Li Zhuiyuan, kowtowing incessantly; his black hair began to turn yellow, and the demonic aura on his body gradually permeated the air.

Li Zhuiyuan: "If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't let you leave, and you wouldn't be able to leave either."

Upon hearing this, the demonic aura on Master Mu's body stagnated, and the withering yellowing of his hair stopped.

The intensity of the situation had not exceeded Li Zhuiyuan's expectations.

However, the speed at which things were developing was indeed much faster than Li Zhuiyuan had anticipated.

Therefore, there was no need for Master Mu to continue following them, lest he be dragged into the fray.

Master Mu, kneeling on the ground, placed his hand over his chest, looked up, and gazed at Li Zhuiyuan with tears in his eyes.

Although he had come under the guise of picking them up, he didn't just want to pick them up; he wanted to stay here or nearby to serve them.

He had no thoughts of sponging off their merit in his mind; he simply wanted to repay their kindness.

Li Zhuiyuan: "You spent a lifetime doing good and finally managed to become a human, so cherish it well."

The demonic aura on Master Mu's body faded, and his hair slowly turned black.

Li Zhuiyuan: "You chose to be a human for yourself, not for me. The past you needed my judgment and recognition, but the current you should learn to discard the crutch and walk on your own two legs."

The demonic aura on Master Mu's body dissipated completely, his hair became entirely black, and he was fully restored to normal.

Li Zhuiyuan: "Since you are a human, don't kneel."

Master Mu did not rush to stand up, remaining on his knees, but he straightened his upper body and puffed out his chest.

Li Zhuiyuan reached out and gently patted Master Mu on the shoulder.

Master Mu had high aptitude; the matter of kneeling or not did not lie in the posture itself.

Those who ignore the reality of the environment and their state of mind, immediately reacting and jumping up the moment they see a kneeling gesture, hear an honorific, or encounter an old custom, are the ones who have truly engraved this set of things rigidly into their brains.

Master Mu bowed down, pressed his forehead to the ground, and spread his hands upward, formally paying his respects to Li Zhuiyuan.

Li Zhuiyuan held A Li's hand with his right hand and walked toward the homestay courtyard, waving his left hand.

After paying his respects, Master Mu stood up; he felt much lighter than before. He also waved at the youth's back, then returned to his car and drove away.

Tan Wenbin was the first to enter the courtyard. At this moment, he was slowly circling the three corpses in the yard.

With his snake eyes opened, he appeared to be observing these three eerie corpses, but in reality, he was conducting a more detailed and precise investigation of the entire homestay surroundings.

Every step he took was equivalent to collecting a round of information about the surrounding environment.

Air temperature, heat, sound, killing intent... nothing was found.

Preliminary judgment: other than these three corpses and this stone tablet, there were no other anomalies here.

Li Zhuiyuan walked to the stone tablet and stopped.

Hell of Death and Falling.

Quite stylish.

No matter how small a small hell is, it is still hell.

The current scene matched the speculation about the current situation he had made while in the car earlier.

Tan Wenbin: "Brother Xiaoyuan, I think these three were likely lamp-lighters, a team whose hideout was found and who were hunted down by the Living Person Valley."

Lin Shu You: "They are truly unlucky."

Living lamp-lighters are competitors; only the dead are suitable objects for feeling a sense of shared sorrow.

Lin Shu You: "Brother Xiaoyuan, do we need to change places to stay? I'll go look for one now."

Tan Wenbin: "If we needed to change places, Brother Xiaoyuan wouldn't have let Master Mu leave just now."

Lin Shu You: "So we are still going to continue staying here? Hmm, then do these three corpses need to be cleaned up?"

Given their experiences, even if the corpses in the courtyard were holding a meeting, it wouldn't prevent them from sleeping peacefully at night.

Tan Wenbin: "A You, do you think they need to be cleaned up?"

Lin Shu You: "Either way is fine. Cleaning them up might look cleaner, but if we don't, it's like a stamp of approval has been placed here. Might that save us some trouble later?"

Tan Wenbin: "That makes sense."

"Hehe." A You, having his statement effectively affirmed, was very happy and continued, "Since it's safe here, I'll go into the room to tidy up, then set up a formation, and everyone can rest early tonight."

Tan Wenbin stretched, and while yawning, he straightened his right arm and clenched his left hand into a fist, tapping the back of his neck.

This was a signal.

The red thread connected in the next moment.

Tan Wenbin thought to himself: "Brother Xiaoyuan, there's a problem here."

Lin Shu You: "..."

Li Zhuiyuan did not rush to respond.

Just as Tan Wenbin was guiding A You, the youth was actually also training Tan Wenbin.

Tan Wenbin thought to himself:

"Brother Xiaoyuan, even A You knows that a formation must be set up around a campsite.

Even if there isn't a formation master among the team members, at the very least, some other early warning and defense arrangements should have been made.

Yet, other than these three corpses and this stone tablet, it's very clean here.

It couldn't be that the Living Person Valley side came over, killed them, and then conveniently did a deep cleaning, right?"

Li Zhuiyuan raised his hand, gesturing at the blood-red characters on the stone tablet; these characters were written quite well.

Tan Wenbin continued to think: "Brother Xiaoyuan, I can only perceive that there is a problem, but as for the specific root cause of the problem, I..."

Li Zhuiyuan thought to himself: "Empiricism has its limitations, but it doesn't hinder one from first running through a cycle in one's own mind whenever a problem is encountered."

Tan Wenbin was thoughtful and thought to himself: "Could it be... could it be... could it be..."

Lin Shu You's face revealed a sudden realization; he rested his chin on his hand and nodded continuously: "So tense, I don't understand at all what Brother Bin and Brother Xiaoyuan are talking about."

Huh?

A You suddenly realized that since the red thread was connected at this moment, his inner thoughts would be transmitted for everyone to hear.

"Oh no, I've been exposed, letting everyone discover that I was just pretending to think."

Huh?

Lin Shu You lowered his head, his ears turning red.

Tan Wenbin thought to himself: "Last time in Lijiang, the broken jade that emitted corpse Qi was a marker; whoever held it would be sensed by others. Could this time be the same?

This wave of river-walking teams once joined forces to attack the Living Person Valley and must have already entered the small hell. After being defeated and retreating, they must have tried to hide while in the city, yet intelligence shows they were frequently found and frequently engaged in battle.

This indicates that after entering the small hell, certain specific auras must have remained on their bodies, which allowed the Living Person Valley to quickly capture and locate their positions when counterattacking.

Just now, A You said that if the corpses aren't dealt with, it's like having a stamp of approval; that's what he meant.

If there's no way to remove the special aura or marker on one's body, then staying with a group of people who also have this aura and marker, and who are also dead people who have been 'officially' executed, is actually the safest."

Lin Shu You thought to himself: "Brother Bin is truly kind, being able to cover for me like this; I hadn't even thought that I was thinking that."

Tan Wenbin once again focused his snake eyes and looked at the three corpses.

"Brother Xiaoyuan, it was my negligence. Earlier, I only performed the set of investigations I deemed correct and ignored the specific changes within this."

Tan Wenbin's gaze moved away from the corpses and landed on the stone tablet. His snake eyes shimmered with blood color, and the blood-red characters on the stone tablet began to sway. Two black shadows appeared, one moving upward and one moving downward.

The one moving downward from the stone tablet dispersed after touching the ground and then each connected to the three corpses kneeling there.

At this moment, looking at the three corpses again, he discovered that wisps of faint black Qi were rising from their bodies; the black Qi first gathered at the stone tablet and then rose upward.

People who have mastered specific methods can detect their existence even from a very long distance.

Lin Shu You followed Tan Wenbin's line of sight and also opened his vertical pupils, looking along with him:

"Wow, I see it, there really is."

Tan Wenbin thought to himself: "If this is the case, then perhaps the one who killed these three wasn't from the Living Person Valley side; after these three were killed, they were arranged in the style of a demonstration after a Living Person Valley killing.

And to be able to enter the campsite, quickly kill the three, and not even give them a chance to make arrangements, either the person who struck was extremely powerful... no, if he were extremely powerful, there would be no need to deliberately hide here.

Or, the one who struck and killed these three was the person in their team who lit the lamp."

Treating the retainers who worship and follow oneself while walking the rivers and lakes as expendable materials is a trend not uncommon among river-walking teams.

People die for wealth and birds die for food; many retainers beside lamp-lighters are just like mercenaries, using one batch and then recruiting the next.

Teams like Li Zhuiyuan's, which always strive to ensure the team members remain alive, are actually in the minority; even back then, Zhao Yi's team member turnover was quite frequent at one point.

Tan Wenbin thought to himself: "Using one's own partners as one's own cover to ensure one's own safety, then the position most suitable for him to hide is..."

Li Zhuiyuan thought to himself: "Right under my feet."

In the next moment, everyone's gaze, except for the youth's, fell on the area under Brother Xiaoyuan's feet.

The position Li Zhuiyuan was currently standing in was the most suitable for blending the black mist on his own body with that emitted from the three corpses above.

The youth began to step backward, with A Li at his side following along.

He was not flustered at all.

Because Tan Wenbin had failed to detect temperature, killing intent, and the like, it meant that this person was in a state of deep turtle-breathing or even feigned death, isolating all perception from the outside world.

Li Zhuiyuan brought the girl safely out to a sufficient distance. Runsheng silently stood at the position where Xiaoyuan had stood earlier, took the Yellow River Shovel out of his bag, and with a "click," the shovel head and the peach wood handle were joined.

Runsheng gripped the shovel with both hands, preparing to smash downward.

Li Zhuiyuan: "Brother Runsheng, keep him alive, interrogate him."

Runsheng turned the Yellow River Shovel around, handle end downward, adjusted his breathing, prepared to control his strength, and then stabbed downward.

"Bang."

The ground cracked, pebbles scattered and flew, and underneath, a man lay wrapped in a layer of translucent white cocoon.

The man was about thirty, with many ghost claw marks on his body; clearly, his injuries were not light, and he had been sleeping here peacefully, healing his wounds.

However, no matter how deep the sleep, Runsheng's smash still startled him awake.

His eyes opened, the white cocoon on his body tore, and he stood up rapidly, accompanied by a piercing sound of breaking air, attacking Runsheng with fierce momentum.

This reaction, this movement technique, could not be called anything but fast; by normal standards, he must be a difficult opponent to deal with.

The man was also feeling fortunate in his heart, fortunate that although he had been discovered, the other side had given him a chance to counter-kill.

Runsheng flicked the lower end of the shovel handle with his left hand, drawing an arc, and while releasing his left hand, he loosened his right hand forward.

The shovel handle sprang out, striking the man.

"Bang!"

The man only felt himself being struck by a huge force, his body uncontrollably springing upward.

In mid-air, he forcibly controlled himself, pinched a talisman with his left hand, gripped a cone with his right hand, intending to turn around after a circle, pierce the talisman with the cone, and counterattack.

However, his turn only managed to get halfway through because his leg was grabbed by Runsheng.

The air waves around quickly compressed toward here, and the man immediately discovered that he was unable to move, as if he had been thrown into a cement tank, and this cement was quickly solidifying into shape.

In the eyes of others, the man's current posture was very strange; Runsheng was holding his leg, his body extended straight forward, hands raised to the side, like an acrobat performing a frozen stunt.

Runsheng's hands began to wave up and down, bringing the man he was holding along with him up and down.

Xiaoyuan wanted to catch him alive, so Runsheng had to constantly weigh his strength.

This was quite difficult, and he didn't know if this guy was actually resistant to beating or not.

To be safe, Runsheng greatly reduced his strength, controlling it within a safe range.

He swung his hand downward.

The man's upper body smashed into the ground.

"Bang!"

He lifted him up and swung him again.

"Bang!"

He continued to lift him up and continue swinging him.

"Bang!"

Small amounts, many times.

Occasionally stopping halfway to carefully observe the heat.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

By the time the man's upper body was bloody and mangled, with white bones exposed in some places, Runsheng stopped swinging.

He switched to a light toss, placed the man on the ground, swept back and forth a few times, and wiped the bloodstains off the ground.

Tan Wenbin: "Runsheng, throw him here."

Runsheng threw the man over, and he landed in front of Tan Wenbin.

The man still harbored a bit of viciousness; the moment he was separated from Runsheng, a discordant sound came from his chest cavity, his body twisted, holding the cone and piercing the talisman, striking the ground one meter beside Tan Wenbin.

"Bang!"

A hole the size of a basketball was blasted into the ground; the area wasn't large, but the soil and stone in this area had already turned into dust and dissipated. If it had really landed on a person, the damage would definitely not be light.

"Heh... hehe..."

The man emitted a hoarse laugh.

Tan Wenbin: "You are really naughty."

The man: "..."

Brother Xiaoyuan's "Code of Conduct for River-Walking" was revised time and again, repeatedly requiring everyone to recite it. It standardized the disciplinary guidelines under various combat scenarios, and facing a cornered beast was one of the key points.

Tan Wenbin raised his foot and first kicked away the iron cone in the man's hand.

Then he took a pair of white gloves out of his pocket and put them on.

He bent down, reached out, grabbed the other party's neck, and turned the other party's head toward his own face.

Snake eyes rotated.

The severely injured body and the weak state also greatly reduced the other party's willpower resistance. Tan Wenbin successfully made the other party's gaze become turbid.

Now, the other party had completely lost its threat.

Releasing his hand and letting the other party lie on the ground in a daze, Tan Wenbin stood up straight and looked at Brother Xiaoyuan behind him.

Li Zhuiyuan: "Hand the interrogation transcript to me tomorrow morning."

Tan Wenbin: "Understood."

Li Zhuiyuan: "Cast a long line to catch a big fish."

Tan Wenbin: "Yes."

Li Zhuiyuan and A Li walked into the wooden house.

The room was very clean, but the quilts were already damp.

Li Zhuiyuan took out the sleeping bags from his and A Li's bags and spread one on each bed.

There was a shower room in the room, but no hot water came out.

Li Zhuiyuan had always believed in treating himself well when conditions permitted.

After taking a plane and then a car, the fatigue of the long journey could be much relieved by a hot shower.

Li Zhuiyuan walked out of the room, and the girl followed him out.

"A Li, I'm going to boil water; you sit here or go into the room to rest first."

The girl did not follow anymore, nor did she go into the room, but sat on a chair outside the room, watching Tan Wenbin prepare for the interrogation in the courtyard.

There was a kitchen behind the front desk, inside which were thermos bottles and a quick-boil heater. Not finding a larger kettle, he could only first fill the thermos bottles with cold water and then put the quick-boil heater inside.

Runsheng, who had originally been standing in the courtyard, moved back a distance to ensure that Xiaoyuan inside was within his line of sight.

Li Zhuiyuan walked out with two thermos bottles in one hand.

"Brother Runsheng, there is still hot water inside that I've boiled; you can take it yourselves later."

"Hmm, okay."

Li Zhuiyuan carried the thermos bottles across the courtyard.

The man was tied to an upright wooden stake; the spot where the stake was poked was the area where the man had previously been lying, which was to ensure that the "hidden means" remained effective during the interrogation.

Lin Shu You brought a chair for Tan Wenbin. After Tan Wenbin sat down, he began to hypnotize and torture the man, interspersed with questioning.

A You held a notebook and pen, making records.

From the perspective of karma, Runsheng kindly saved him, but he acted like the farmer and the snake.

From the perspective of morality, there was nothing to be polite about toward a guy who killed three partners to build a safe house.

As long as his mouth could be pried open, the first-person perspective intelligence of this group of losers in this wave could be obtained.

A Li was still sitting at the door of the room, watching the interrogation very seriously.

Sensing that the youth had returned, the girl stood up and opened the room door.

Li Zhuiyuan: "Next time, let Brother Binbin take you to the interrogation to familiarize yourself with the process."

The girl blinked.

Li Zhuiyuan: "You go back outside and watch for a while; I'll wash first."

The girl returned to the door outside and sat down.

Unable to manage a shower, he could only dampen a towel after adjusting the water temperature to wipe himself down.

After washing, seeing that A Li had not yet returned to the room, Li Zhuiyuan did not call her, chose a bed on the inside, lay into the sleeping bag, and went to sleep.

During this time, the youth could hear the girl returning to the room and wiping herself down, but Li Zhuiyuan did not wake up.

The girl's bed was by the window; she sat into the sleeping bag, not lying down, but continued to watch the inhumane interrogation outside through the window.

After watching for a while longer, she looked up at the position of the moon, knowing it was getting late, so she lay down to prepare for sleep. Before closing her eyes, she first turned her head to look at the youth lying on the bed next to her.

At three in the morning, the interrogation ended.

Tan Wenbin sat on the chair and did a round of eye exercises.

After finishing, Lin Shu You handed over the record book: "Brother Bin, I've finished recording."

Tan Wenbin took it and looked; it not only vividly described how he had carried out the torture but also recorded all the colloquialisms, screams, and groans of pain in the other party's answers.

"A You, you have really worked hard; the recording is so detailed."

"Not hard, not hard, I think this can allow Brother Xiaoyuan to fully grasp all the details."

"If Brother Xiaoyuan wanted to fully grasp all the details, why didn't Brother Xiaoyuan sit here and interrogate personally?"

"Uh... I'll organize and reduce it immediately."

"It's too late, it's time to fish."

"Fishing?"

"Brother Xiaoyuan ordered it before resting: listen to both sides and you will be enlightened, trust only one side and you will be in the dark. Now that the positive perspective has been obtained, next it's time to get the negative perspective.

Come, move this stone tablet to the corner and smash it."

Lin Shu You carried the stone tablet, placed it in the corner of the courtyard, drew out the golden mace, and smashed it to pieces.

When returning, he discovered that Tan Wenbin had moved a table over, and there were four chairs beside the table.

The three corpses that had originally been kneeling there had been manipulated by Tan Wenbin onto the chairs, their heads that had been turned back were straightened, and each was adjusted into a posture: one with a foot on the chair picking at its toes, one with an arm swung back scratching its back, and one clenching a fist as if about to smash the table.

The one originally on the wooden stake was also untied and tied to a chair, body leaning back, arms hanging down.

Tan Wenbin took out a deck of playing cards and stuffed three cards into each of their hands; this posture and action suddenly became reasonable.

Two candles were lit on the table, and bowls, chopsticks, and cooking wine were taken from the kitchen and filled for them.

After adjusting the light and shadows, from a distance, these four people looked like they were sitting in the courtyard playing cards and drinking.

Lin Shu You: "Brother Bin, are you planning to attract the pursuers sent by the Living Person Valley?"

Tan Wenbin: "I already said, this is Brother Xiaoyuan's arrangement."

Lin Shu You: "Will there be fish on the hook before dawn?"

Tan Wenbin: "Before this, several batches of Living Person Valley people should have already come to scan this place, thinking that the companions had already completed the hunt. Wanting them to return here to check again in a short time is very difficult and relies heavily on luck. In short, our bait isn't fresh enough."

Lin Shu You: "Then what should we do?"

Tan Wenbin moved another chair over and handed Lin Shu You three cards: "A You, you sit here and play together."

Lin Shu You took the cards and sat down.

Tan Wenbin: "Although Fengdu and the Living Person Valley aren't the same hell, the style should be quite close. You just deliberately emit some ghost Qi here, transition it onto them, and increase the concentration for them."

Lin Shu You: "Okay."

Reaching out to touch the forehead ornament on his forehead, Lin Shu You released his ghost Qi, which circled around the four people at the table.

Those three corpses were fine; they were dead people to begin with, and they had died quite freshly, so there was no need to worry about them turning into zombies in the short term.

That one who was severely injured and tied up began to twitch, clearly somewhat unable to withstand this ghost Qi erosion.

Tan Wenbin reached out and pinched the back of the other party's neck, causing the other party to faint.

It was just that this ghost Qi invasion was like piercing the heart with a bone-chilling sensation, and soon it stimulated him to wake up again.

Tan Wenbin: "Forget it, just like this. It's normal to be crazy with joy after getting a good hand of cards."

As he said this, Tan Wenbin bent down and looked at the cards he had previously dealt him in his hand: four, five, six of hearts, a straight flush.

Lin Shu You had nothing to do while sitting, so he slowly touched and looked at the three cards in his hand.

"Brother Bin, three aces, I have three aces!

If I could have this hand of cards when playing cards at home during the New Year, that would be great."

"Then I would definitely think you were secretly cheating."

Tan Wenbin stepped back a few paces and opened his snake eyes to look upward; this black mist was incomparably thick.

"Brother Bin, how is the effect?"

"The effect is very good. You work hard, continue playing, and I'll go to Runsheng's place to nap for a while."

"If someone arrives, oh no, if a ghost arrives, I will..."

"You just go up and do it directly."

After giving the instructions, Tan Wenbin walked to the long corridor, where Runsheng was sitting and keeping watch.

Tan Wenbin: "It's fine, sleep, A You is watching there."

Runsheng nodded and closed his eyes.

Tan Wenbin raised his hand, wisps of blue smoke overflowed, wrapping himself, Runsheng, and Brother Xiaoyuan's room behind together, isolating the view from the outside.

After doing this, Tan Wenbin also went to sleep.

Lin Shu You, sitting at the table, looked at the three aces in his hand repeatedly.

The twitching frequency of the big brother next door was getting lower and lower, looking a bit like he was dying.

At this moment, Lin Shu You suddenly sensed an aura that was both strange and familiar, rapidly approaching him.

The reason he could sense it so early was that the other party was actively echoing the black Qi here, which in turn affected his own underlying ghost Qi.

Lin Shu You turned his head to look at the long corridor behind him and couldn't see the figures of Brother Bin and Runsheng. He knew that this must be Brother Bin using the Green Ox's ability to hide them.

Withdrawing his gaze, when he looked forward, a black shadow seeped out from the courtyard wall in front.

The black shadow wore an official hat, official boots, and held a pen and book.

Judging from its form, it should be a female.

As soon as it entered, the black shadow threw the pen in its hand.

"Hum!"

The writing brush pierced into the head of the straight flush holder beside Lin Shu You, whose head instantly turned black, changing from a small death to a thorough death.

"Hum! Hum! Hum!"

The writing brush passed through and successively pierced the heads of the other three corpses.

Seeming not to have sensed the living person aura on the other three people through the writing brush, the black shadow immediately retreated, wanting to leave.

Lin Shu You first reached out, gripped the writing brush that was about to pierce his own head due to inertia, and then flashed out, rushing toward the black shadow.

The black shadow submerged into the wall again.

Lin Shu You originally wanted to crash directly through the courtyard wall, but fearing to wake Brother Xiaoyuan, he simply leaped and jumped over the courtyard wall.

When landing, he knelt on one knee and supported the ground with one hand.

It wasn't to maintain balance, but to suddenly raise his head, opening his vertical pupils.

In front of the black shadow that was fleeing, a Dharma net appeared, blocking its path.

Regardless of whether it was the Bai He Guarding Guarding Zhenjun or the Ghost Marshal, they absolutely restrained such ghostly things.

The black shadow stopped fleeing, turned around, and threw the book in its hand forward; the pages fell off and transformed into armor.

However, before this armor had time to be worn on its body, Lin Shu You had already approached.

"Puff!"

A You's palm pierced through the armor, and with a very casual flick, the armor flew out, landing on the ground and turning into a piece of paper, quickly catching fire and turning into ashes.

The black shadow instinctively opened its mouth and spat out ghost fire.

Lin Shu You opened his mouth and took the ghost fire completely, swallowing it.

"Hiccup~"

The ghost fire of the small hell was not as pure as that of the Fengdu hell and had many more impurities, but this was just like drinking alcohol, and because of this, it actually had more flavor.

Before the black shadow could continue to do anything else, Lin Shu You's hand gripped its neck, and the majesty of the Ghost Marshal bore down.

"Slap!"

The black shadow attached to the other party dissipated, revealing the true body, which was a young woman.

The woman's face revealed pain, her eyes filled with tears, looking miserably at Lin Shu You, who was destroying the flower with a heavy hand.

Tongzi: "Hahahaha, you actually used this kind of seductive ghost charm technique on this seat's spirit medium!

If he could fall for your trick, why would this seat's next generation of little True Lords not even have a shadow seen until now!"

Before Tongzi could speak, Lin Shu You hadn't even realized that the other party was using a seductive ghost charm technique to hook him, so he swung his fist and smashed it toward the woman's face.

The fist stopped.

The woman's eyes revealed hope, thinking that this move was truly effective, and immediately immersed herself more deeply in displaying her charm.

She was very fortunate, fortunate that the sacrificial girl she had chosen had a good foundation of appearance, not in vain for her to have devoured her true soul and fused her flesh when she was in her prime.

A You withdrew his fist, not out of pity for the fragrant and cherishing the jade, but because he had encountered the same problem as Runsheng earlier: if he blew this ghost general up with one punch, how would he record the confession later?

He loosened his fist into a palm.

"Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!"

A You slapped the ghost general's face.

In every slap, there was a portion of Ghost Marshal majesty mixed in.

The woman was slapped into a daze, and soon, she discovered that her soul body had begun to loosen.

She struggled desperately, but her neck was restrained by the other party, and it seemed as if an invisible majesty bound her, making it impossible to break free from his control.

While slapping, Lin Shu You discovered that on the face of the ghost general in front of him, two faces were constantly alternating.

"Tongzi, what is going on?"

Bai He Tongzi: "This is the object she borrowed a corpse to return her soul to, used to facilitate walking in the Yang world."

Lin Shu You: "Borrowed a corpse?"

Bai He Tongzi: "Although there is nothing new under the sun, the rules of the small hell are definitely not as strict as those of the Fengdu hell." ===== CHAPTER 455 =====
