Master of Metaphysics

"Team, captain, do you feel that it's getting colder and colder?" The young man crowded beside the captain trembled.

The captain felt it for a while, and also felt that the surrounding temperature had dropped significantly. He stopped, looked at the dimly lit surroundings, and said, "Maybe it's here, and then walk inside."

The three of them bravely walked a few more steps inside, and the temperature had dropped to the point where they shivered slightly.

"Captain, look there!" The young man on the left whispered, pointing at a dark thing not far ahead, the captain looked over there carefully, and saw a black skeleton sitting quietly on the ground leaning against a tree, empty Looking this way, he was startled first, and then thought, could this be the "abnormality" he was looking for?

Holding the electric baton in his hand for self-defense, he walked slowly two or three meters in front of the skeleton, observed it carefully, and found that the skeleton was very strange, the bones all over the body were black, and there were traces of silver patterns flashing on it from time to time. It's very penetrating.

"Let's go." Intuition told the captain that we can't stay here any longer. He waved his hands at the two of them, slowly backed away, and left the skeleton. Coming over, the captain dodged it, rolled on the ground, and shouted at the two team members: "Go! Get someone to save me!"

The two team members knew that it was impossible for ordinary people like themselves to fight this kind of monster. They looked at each other and ran towards the way they came in very tacit understanding. The hands of the captain's neck.

"Bastard!" The captain cursed through gritted teeth, quickly got up, picked up the electric baton and knocked it down on the skeleton's skull. The stick hit it, as if it had hit a steel plate, which made his hand hurt.

It seemed to be "pained" by the knock, the skeleton gave up the claws that were attacking the young man, and turned to the captain again. At this time, a silver light flashed on it again, and the speed of the skeleton suddenly increased. After reacting, the skeleton's long hand bones pierced the captain's neck.

"Captain!" The young man only had time to yell, and then he saw the blood in front of his eyes, and his heart jumped, and he suddenly despaired.

"Get out of the way!" An impatient voice sounded behind him, and the young man came to his senses. He turned around and looked at his returning companion, with tears in his eyes: "Captain, captain... is gone!" The splash fell down.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" His companion didn't understand his sadness at all, pulled him aside, pointed behind him and said, "Captain is fine, the blood came from the skeleton!"

Only then did the young man come to his senses, and turned his head to look, his captain was standing not far away, but the skeleton was missing an arm, and dark red blood dripped down from the fractured part of its bone, Rong Zhen He was holding a small dagger and standing opposite the skeleton.

"Just before I walked a few steps, I ran into this... this master! He already knew that we were in danger and came to rescue us."

Hearing what his companion said, the young man looked at Rong Zhen gratefully.

When Rong Zhen felt that something was wrong here, he rushed over very quickly and stopped the skeleton before it hurt anyone.

Looking at the skeleton in front of him, Rong Zhen's eyes were cold. This is no longer an ordinary evil thing, but a ghost general!

A ghost general is a ghost that has been refined into a resentful soul by human sacrifices, and then has a physical ghost after advancing through self-cultivation. This kind of thing has a lot of resentment, basically no consciousness, and is very aggressive, which is difficult to control.The ghost generals he had seen before were all specially trained by ghost cultivators as tools for massacring the city, and they would be discarded if thrown into the city, and there would be no second chance to use them.

But the one in front of him obviously had a sliver of sanity. After he chopped off an arm, he retreated and hid behind a tree, and the severed arm slowly grew back.

Rong Zhen grasped the dagger, took out his own bell, shook it lightly, the rune fell off, and flowed towards the ghost general's feet.

The ghost general seemed a little dull, Rong Zhen thought it would avoid it, but it remained motionless, and when the rune climbed onto its body, it opened its hollow jaws in pain, as if roaring.

Rong Zhen stabbed at its temple with a dagger, and the ghost only moved slightly to let the temple dodge the dagger, and stabbed at its cheekbone.

Rong really felt a little strange, although the ghost general couldn't beat him, why did he feel that the guy in front of him didn't want to beat him anymore?

Could it be that the mind of this thing has reached this point?

Sure enough, after Rong Zhen's dagger pierced the skeleton's face, it howled silently again, then vigorously broke free from the runes on its body, glanced at a small dirt bag, and then jumped away quickly.

Rong Zhen didn't catch up with it, followed its line of sight to look over there, then walked over there, beckoning a few people to come over.

"Dig this up, be careful."

"This..." The captain looked at the soil bag, buried under here, isn't it already dead?

The three of them went to find tools and carefully dug up the soil bag. Qu Huaijiang also came here, looking worriedly at the soil bag being dug up continuously.

"Don't worry, it should be fine."

When the onlookers heard Rong Zhen's words, they didn't know what expression they should have. They were all buried in the ground and they were fine!

As the soil was gradually dug out, the outline of the buried person was revealed. Several people put down the tools in their hands and pulled the person out with bare hands.

After cleaning up the dirt on his face, Qu Huaijiang looked at the person lying on the ground with a very ugly expression.Rong Zhen walked over, touched Deng Chuan's forehead, and said to Qu Huaijiang: "Don't be sad, Mr. Deng is still saved, let's carry him back first!"

"This... I'm out of breath..." Someone said in a low voice, Rong Zhen just glanced at that person indifferently, and he choked back the rest of the words.

After hearing Rong Zhen's words, Qu Huaijiang's complexion became better, he believed in Rong Zhen.

Carrying Deng Chuan's body back to the hotel, someone suggested sending him to the hospital, but Rong Zhen pointed to Deng Chuan's heart: "It stopped beating, should I take it to the hospital and put it in the mortuary?

So no one commented.

Uneasy, Deng Chuan was placed in Qu Huaijiang's room, and Qu Huaijiang took his luggage to Rong Zhen's room.Rong Zhen didn't have any opinions. After setting up a formation in Qu Huaijiang's room to preserve Deng Chuan's body, he began to think of ways to find his soul.

"Teacher Deng's three souls and seven souls have lost two souls and seven souls, and now only one soul remains. In this way, there is no fear that his soul will not come back after a long time."

"Moreover, we can know from the situation of this soul that nothing happened to Mr. Deng's other souls, and they may just be temporarily trapped. But we don't know the purpose of the person who took away Mr. Deng's soul, so we still have to find it quickly. he."
