There are no living people on Manling Island.

Both of them stared at the corpse that was still moving by themselves.

This corner of the peaceful world could not be kept after all.

"Although the island is mixed with human beings and demons, at least there are people of the same race, but the water demons are so vicious." Yu Wuque couldn't believe it, and asked, "They are all dead, so what about the corpses, have they become like Wynn?"

"Yes, each family left a corpse. Like this person, the head was stitched together, and it was responsible for burning the fire and cooking the cinnabar."

Sora unfolded the island map he had just drawn, and simple marks had been made on it.

"The corpses of the rest of the islanders were stored in culverts on the mountain, embalmed, and the blood had been drained. That's how the rotting blood near the sea should have come. In addition, the surface of the corpse was brushed with spices, and the inside was filled with white water. Almost a month without any rot."

The crane did not return: "Just now Wynn touched Haiyan and stained the body of the bird with blue fire. I guess the internal organs of Wynn's body were burned by the blue fire. Is it the same for the corpse on the mountain?"

Kong knew: "Yes, there are beasts looking for corpses in the culvert. They died of blue fire. The corpses are well preserved and should be infected from human corpses. In addition, the corpses in the cave have no heads. We found a large pit on the edge of the village. covered in snow."

Yu Wuque was horrified: "Hold your head down?!"

Sora: "Yes."

Yu Wuque was puzzled: "What's the reason for this?"

"Manling Island is extremely cold, which is good for preserving the corpse." He Bugui stared at Wynn's busy back for a while, and murmured, "If it's for controlling the corpse, it would be superfluous to separate the head, but since they cut it off, There must be a reason why some people were left to sew up their heads.”

He Bugui raised his hand to call the puppet: "Tie up Wynn, don't hurt him."

Yu Wuque: "Master, what did you think of?"

"Wynn moves freely, has self-awareness, and the soul still exists in the body, maybe it has something to do with the head." He Bugui began to search around, "Only by finding something that confuses him can he find a way to wake him up. What happened on this island? We can only let Wynn tell us in person."

After Tang Huaien's body was tied up, he did not show any intention of attacking, but fell into a stiff and sluggish state, and the two rummaged through the house.

There were too many sundries piled up in the kitchen, cinnabar ore and firewood were randomly thrown all over the floor. After searching for a long time, not to mention the talisman stones, they couldn't find even a little bit of spiritual power.

Kong Zhi lifted the lid of the wooden basket at the foot of the wall, and said "Ah", as if he had discovered something novel and was about to share it with Yu Wuque, when he suddenly squatted down covering his ears.

Kongzhi let go of the cover, and hurried over to look at him: "Wu Que, what's wrong with you?!"

He Bugui had already taken the first step to support him, Yu Wuque shook his head, lost his mind for a moment: "What did you touch just now, I heard... I heard the voice of the goddess."

"I lifted the lid." Kongzhi pointed to the wooden basket in the corner, "There are a lot of long spiny murex in it."

Yu Wuque was puzzled: "Long piercing snail?"

He Bugui explained: "It's a kind of conch shell, it can store sound."

"Master, what you mean is that the Goddess used the long thorn shell as a medium to release the turbid moon soul technique?" Yu Wuque's eyes lit up, "Kongzhi, bring the wooden basket here!"

"Spells stored in a medium are naturally ineffective, but you were affected just now by just opening a corner." Crane Bugui pressed the lid of the wooden basket with one hand, and reminded, "I don't know if the soul spell is related to your physique, don't act rashly."

"Master, don't worry, I'm fine." Yu Wuque calmed down and smiled confidently, "It's not accidental that I can hear it. I don't know if it's God's will or man-made that I learned to eat the sun in my dream, but it may be a chance. Master, the premise Do not use the forbidden technique without authorization, it is an expedient measure for now, Goddess is not the only one who can use the soul technique in this world, I can also use that method to repay the other body."

He Bugui was not at ease: "What do you want to do?"

"Eating the sun and the cloudy moon are very closely related. I have pondered the principle of the spell in private." Yu Wuque said, "The medium's spellcasting effect is not good. Since the goddess is not here, I can forcibly counter-control."

Kongzhi worried: "Why don't you destroy the conch, isn't it a one-hundred-thousand?"

The crane did not return without saying a word, Yu Wuque knew that the master had thought of something with him, and explained: "The soul technique is extraordinary. Once activated, it will act on the target soul. Destroying the medium will not help, and the only way to reverse the effect is Can cast spells again."

He Bugui admitted that what he said was right, but the forbidden technique is the forbidden technique, and the other party's origin is unknown, and he is proficient in the forbidden technique, but Yu Wuque had a few big dreams.

Even if he has learned to eat the sun, he still has only a half-knowledge, and it is really risky to counter-control the higher-level Zhuoyue.

Crane Bugui refused to let go: "You are in danger of being backlashed."

Yu Wuque asked back: "Master, can't you trust my ability?"

He Bugui answered blankly: "It's not that you can't believe it, you have learned the principles of magic skills very well, but..."

"That's why you're worried about me." Yu Wuque hooked Gou He's missing little finger, and slipped away the hand that was pressing on the lid of the wooden basket. But so many innocent people died in Manling Island, we are here, we must give them an explanation, right?"

"Yes." He Bugui nodded helplessly, "Then I will protect the law for you, and if you notice something unusual, you must not force it."

Yu Wuque smiled and said, "Okay."

He Bugui picked up a few small stones from the cinnabar mine, and the two sat down cross-legged. He quickly set up the spirit protection formation. The souls of the two were tied together on a spiritual thread.

Yu Wuque suddenly felt a lot of pressure: "Master, it's hard for me to use my fists like this."

He Bugui willfully threatened: "If one person has an accident, two people will share the responsibility. You can handle it yourself."

Yu Wuque: "..."

Crane Bugui tried to force him to do what he could, and Yu Wuque naturally cast spells with [-]% energy. With the protection of his master, he lifted the lid of the wooden basket and poured out all the conch, then slowly closed his eyes and tried Self-isolate.

The rustling prayers from the pile of conch shells grew from small to large, and exploded into a burst of brain-drilling magic sounds. Although Yu Wuque had successfully left the body and entered the realm of the soul, this force was like a giant hand that easily held her. With all his nerves, at first he regarded himself as a marionette, still dominated by the other party's voice, and at this time he took the opportunity to feel everything around him.

The realm of the soul is much more illusory than the real world, and more real than the illusory realm of the sea of ​​consciousness. Not only can he see everything in the outside world, but he can also see the burning golden fire of the master's soul power, held by a thin gossamer thread. On top of his golden soul, not far away, the soul in Tang Huaien's corpse has turned purple-black, covered with mantras, with blue fire burning around the edge, densely packed mantras like crawling worms, the thickest one It is drawn from the conch.

With the continuous effectiveness of the conch, the mantra root burning with blue fire stretched to Yu Wuque, and was frightened by the golden fire several times when it touched his soul. At that moment, without a teacher, he burned the flames around him even more vigorously. The moment the tongue of flame hit the root of the mantra, he uncontrollably jumped into the pile of conch shells, gold and blue collided, and Yu Wuque felt his soul At the speed of consumption, I saw that the blue fire was swallowed alive.

The golden light in front of my eyes, the voice of the goddess changed, distorted, and gradually extinguished, while Yu Wuque's golden fire spread from the root of the mantra to Tang Huai'en's soul, the blue fire dissipated, Yu Wuque heard "Enough", and saw that he and the crane did not return The threaded filament hooked vigorously, and his light and fluffy soul was pulled back to his heavy body.

Suddenly opened his eyes.

He Bugui's cold fingertips touched the back of his heart, and the other hand held him vainly. Although he stared at him without saying a word, Yu Wuque could see from the eyes of the other party that his every move was affected by the other party's attention. Anxiety of attention.

Yu Wuque smiled in a daze: "It's done."

He Bugui gave a faint "hmm": "You are a little weak."

"After all, it's the first time I entered the soul realm."

The release of the soul technique burns his own soul, and this is the first time Yu Wuque knows the key to the forbidden technique.

But he was worried that the crane would not return, so he skipped mentioning it. He blinked and said: "I know some soul skills, and I will discuss it with the master later, and go to see Wynn first."

When Tang Huai'en opened his eyes, he fell to his knees with a "plop" and waited for half a stick of incense before he gradually woke up.

The rotten eye sockets had been carefully treated by Kong Zhi, but the two big black holes were still terrifying. Rui Su felt uncomfortable looking at them when he woke up, so He Bugui temporarily made a pair of puppet prosthetic eyes for him.

Handwork was no problem, and Yu Wuque also treated the incision on his neck, removed the carrion, and wrapped a layer of gauze to cover the sutured wound.

If it weren't for the fact that his complexion was darker than that of a living person, Tang Huai'en was just a frail scholar with a thin yellow skin but delicate features.

"Thank you."

This was the first sentence Tang Huaien said when he woke up. He was not emotional. On the contrary, he was unusually calm after going through such a great ordeal, his voice was dry and hoarse, and his limbs were very stiff. He curled his fingers and hooked Gou Ruisu pointed his finger, and said again: "Thank you for your help, I still have the opportunity to say goodbye to Asu."

He touched his eyeballs, staggered to his knees, and was helped back by Yu Wuque: "Tang Huaien, you know who we are."

Wynn nodded: "I heard from Asu before, and I knew it when you came in just now. It's just that your body is out of control and you can't respond."

Just as He Bugui expected, although he was controlled by others, his head was still there, and his soul remained in the corpse. Tang Huai'en was a witness to everything that happened outside.

That's why he was able to remain calm when he woke up. Maybe he was just as excited and terrified when the incident happened. After a month of hard work, he may have accepted the fact of his own death. On the outside, he is a walking dead, but his soul has not stopped struggling. and thinking.

"The home is gone, and Manling Island has become a purgatory on earth. Fortunately...Ah Su is still alive." Tang Huai'en put Rui Su's hand into his palm, and he looked at his lifeless complexion, feeling unspeakably miserable. Sad, but his eye sockets were dry, and he didn't have a single tear. He said, "It's fine if you're dizzy, but if you listen to such a thing, I'm afraid it will be hard for the rest of your life, and I don't want him to know."

Yu Wuque asked: "What exactly happened, you just say it's okay."

Tang Huai'en turned his head: "I see everything in my eyes, and I would like to tell you the truth, but please promise me one thing first."

He Bugui said: "I will protect Ruisu and prevent him from being implicated."

Tang Huaien was stunned for a moment, then bowed respectfully: "Thank you, Chengquan."

He closed his eyes, suppressed the great sadness and fear, and spoke slowly.

"Three months ago, the water monster's fleet landed on Manling Island for the first time. Under the slogan of conscription and revival, they wanted to catch some young and strong people from the island. The island is mixed with monsters, with mediocre qualifications, and a good reputation outside. It's not very good, seeing that everyone didn't intend to participate, the water demon didn't force it, and after that, it came several times one after another, but nothing major happened."

"Until a month ago, when their fleet approached the coast again, everyone thought that the other party was probably just going through the motions and coping with it."

It was originally an ordinary day with calm and calm, but it became the end of Manling Island. Tang Huai'en couldn't help but clenched his lover's hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Who would have thought that this group of people would be fully armed and start slaughtering on the island? We are unarmed , before he could react, he was decapitated."

The one-sided massacre was silent and cruel, bloody and bloody swept across the entire island, and most of the people died without knowing what happened, but when they turned around, they saw the shining knife falling down.

Tang Huai'en was marinating meat in the kitchen at the time, and it was too late when he smelled the blood and ran out to have a look. He panicked and hid everywhere, and the strong blood was chasing after him like a demon. , One of them was chopped under the knife without leaving.

Knowing that he was doomed, he finally returned home. When the water demon chased him to the door, he crouched in front of the desk and just wanted to send another letter to his beloved, telling him that everything was fine and don't worry about it. Seeing the tragic image, he didn't dare to mention a word, his only thought was that Ah Su didn't want to go home, but wanted to live.

It's just that the letter couldn't be sent, and writing the letter became the last thought before his death, just like his own head.

When he opened his eyes again, his body was out of control. The water demon dumped the conch and picked out some corpses to sew up the wounds. Tang Huaien didn't know what he was doing or why he did it.

But he couldn't control his behavior. He refined white water and watered corpses day after day. There were many corpses like him on the island who could move, but they couldn't communicate with each other.

Controlled by conch shells, the water demon didn't worry about accidents when the corpses moved freely, and let them become walking dead.

"I heard the name of the person who slaughtered Manling Island." Tang Huaien said, "Does the Immortal know Xie Miao?"

Yu Wuque asked, "Who is it?"

"The water demon called him the high priest. He has followed the goddess for many days and is her trusted right-hand man. This time he brought people here." Tang Huai'en said, "He brought a long snail and used the sound of the conch to control the corpse. To do things, I also said that there are too few living people on Manling Island, and these islands are excellent corpses, we must not let them go, a group of people killed people in a mighty way, and then left in a hurry."

"There are two places around the same place of exile as Manling Island. Camel Bell Island and Jibo Island are both in the north. They must have gone there." Speaking of this, Tang Huai'en was a little anxious, "The two elders must Stop them, the more people die, the stronger the magic power of the goddess, I heard Xie Miao personally said that the head stores the soul, which is dedicated to the goddess for food."
