Chapter 265 Seizing the Body (please subscribe and vote monthly)
Qingyan looked surprised, "They really brought Zhang Liugen's body here! Then where did they hide the body before? Even your consciousness can't detect it."

Chou Chou: “You don’t even know how cunning this half-demon is, it actually placed the body under the Buddha statue in the main hall!
You also know that I hate the golden light of merit. This Lingguang Temple has some history, and the Buddha statues inside also have some origins. They really have golden light, so I ignored it. "

Qingyan said doubtfully: "That's not right. Since the Buddha statue has merits and virtues, how come the half-demon has been the abbot here for so many years? Can you still put the corpse underneath, won't it have a restraining effect on it?"

Chou Chou shook his head, "What misunderstanding do you have about merit? If the golden light of merit can restrain ghosts and monsters on a magic weapon, it must be strong enough on a Buddha statue.

Moreover, the golden light of merit has no restraint effect on demons, especially half-demon, which has half human blood. As long as it does not do evil and does good deeds, it can even gain merit.

Moreover, it seems that the half-demon didn't do the evil himself. He doesn't know how he controlled his subordinates and made them bear the blame for him.

As for Zhang Liugen's body, there is no evil in it. He has a pure Yang body. Although he lacks intelligence, his thoughts are simple because of his lack of intelligence. It can be said that he has a pure body, including his soul. "

Qingyan rolled her eyes and guessed: "So, could it be that the half-demon is interested in Zhang Liugen's innocent body or soul?"

Chou Chou nodded, "It's possible, but I don't know what the other party is going to use it for."

While the two of them were talking, they didn't waste time exploring the underground altar with their spiritual consciousness.

I saw the half-demon abbot directing four middle-aged men dressed as monks to place the coffin on the platform in the center.

Then it placed several copper vessels that looked like lamps and goblets on the coffin, and after placing them, it poured some liquid into them.

The first one looks like oil and is yellow and thick, the second one has red inside and looks like blood, the third one is black, and there is another green one, I can’t tell what it is. It’s colorful anyway.

After putting these things away, the five of them lit up all the long-bright lamps placed below. Before, they were just placed there, lighting up a long-bright lamp on the wall. The ones placed below were not lit, otherwise there would probably be none down there. air.

With all the lights lit up everywhere, the air will definitely become thinner.

After all the lamps were lit, the four people went out and stayed at the entrance without leaving.

The half-demon host sat cross-legged on the futon next to the coffin, and then began to mutter something. It didn't sound like scripture, but more like a spell.

Two minutes later, I saw that the ever-burning lamps on the ground were turning on their own without wind, and the flames became higher and began to tilt toward the coffin, as if there was suction there.

Qingyan sent a message to Chou Chou: "Hey, did you see it? What happened to those flames? What was he reciting? Is it a spell? I can't hear it clearly, can you hear it?"

Chou Chou replied: "I can't understand it either. It must be the unique language of their demon tribe. I can't understand what he is saying at all."

At this time, the flames of those ever-burning lamps suddenly swelled up, and it felt like they were burning faster. After a while, the surrounding lights were extinguished one after another.

It's not that it was blown out by the wind, but that it was put out when the oil in the lamp burned out.

The reason why this lamp is called an ever-burning lamp must be that it can be lit for a long time. If it goes out so quickly, it means there must be something wrong.

Moreover, there is a lot of oil in the lamp. If it is used normally, it can last for at least a few days without any problem. But now it only lasts a few minutes, which is very strange.

Then I heard the incantation from the host's mouth become more and more rapid, and the voice became louder and louder.

Not only were the lights brighter, but something seemed to be swimming in the cramped space. There was a lot of translucent gas flowing back and forth, squeezing, seeming to be entangled and torn apart.

Qingyan suddenly felt a biting coldness on her collarbone and couldn't help but shudder. She immediately withdrew her consciousness and looked down at her chest.

Of course, there must be nothing visible. When I touched it with my hand, it was the black bird's soul bead from before.

Chou Chou said that this soul bead could act as a talisman, so she went to a jewelry shop in Fucheng to make a necklace and wear it.

This bead is like a black pearl, set on a white silver base in the shape of a twig, and it is quite beautiful.

So even if it's cold, Qingyan always wears it around her neck. Anyway, she wears a lot of clothes, so it can't be exposed and others can't see it.

Now it suddenly feels like ice, which is very abnormal. After all, it has been warmed by body temperature near the skin.

But now it felt almost indistinguishable from the ice outside. She quickly asked Chou Chou, "Chou Chou, look at it, what's going on with this soul bead? It's freezing to the touch now!"

Chou Chou quickly looked over and said to her: "Quick! Take it off quickly!"

Qingyan quickly untied the red rope from behind and handed it to Chou Chou.

Chou Chou held it in his claws and closed his eyes to feel it. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Now I know what the half-demon is doing."

Qingyan looked curious, "What is it going to do?"

Chou Chou didn't show off, and said directly: "It's time is approaching and it wants to possess its soul into Zhang Liugen's body. This is the so-called body-seizing and rebirth."

Qingyan was a little surprised but also a little aware. After all, she had guessed this before. "Is it casting a spell now? How long does it take? Is this what the blackbird's soul told you?"

Chou Chou: "It will probably take a long time. The black bird said that before it wants to seize the body, it must first strengthen its own soul, otherwise it won't be able to stay in other people's bodies.

The reason why it harmed those children was that at first I thought it was because the half-demon finally couldn't resist the urge to eat people, but now I know I was wrong.

They did this just to give people the illusion of being a ghost and hurting people, so as to cover up their purpose. What he really wanted was the souls of those children.

Of course, they did not let go of those corpses. In order to refine those souls, he boiled the corpses of those children into corpse oil and made them into everlasting lamps.

In the lamps below, all the lamp oil inside was boiled out of those corpses. With the presence of those corpse oils, those souls were detained there and could not leave.

The incantation he is reciting now is to fuse the souls of those children with his own soul, including Zhang Liugen's soul, so that when he enters Zhang Liugen's body later, because his own soul is there, he will not be rejected and can be better. Good blend. "

Qingyan was confused and asked: "How does the black bird know this? Can it detect it?" Chou Chou glanced at her and then said: "Have you forgotten who its master is? What did that guy Yin Jin do? Already?"

Qingyan paused and realized that it was true that Yin Jin also relied on devouring souls to improve himself, and he also wanted to be reborn. This black bird must have known a lot after following him for so many years, and there was no problem knowing this.

Then he thought of something again and asked: "That left root must have been dead for two or three months. Even if it is not rotten due to the cold weather, it should be smelly. It's not like you can be frozen if you die in winter. That child died." It should be when the weather is still relatively warm."

Chou Chou: "There must be some secret method in their tribe to keep corpses from rotting. I don't know that. Anyway, that's what it means.

The reason why the blackbird's soul woke up was because the spell being recited there not only fused the soul, but also absorbed the surrounding souls. The blackbird was awakened by it.

Qingyan nodded, "Then should we stop it now? If it succeeds in seizing the body, it will definitely use Zhang Liugen's body to continue causing chaos. After all, it has killed so many people."

Chou Chou nodded, "Then just stop it. If it succeeds, when Zhang Liugen's body gets older, it will probably continue to take other people's bodies.

Moreover, he has done a lot of evil now. Although I don’t know how he did it without causing any consequences, he will definitely continue to do it in the future. We can also be regarded as eliminating harm for the people. "

Qingyan agreed, "Can you interrupt him now? Will it hurt you? If it will hurt you, then we can wait a little longer. There should be a period of weakness after he has just succeeded in seizing the body. We can sort it out when the time comes.”

Chou Chou looked at the situation going on over there, and tried to wrap it up with his spiritual consciousness. He found that there was no movement from the other party, and he probably couldn't sense its spiritual consciousness.

Then she said to Qingyan: "There should be no need to wait. The other party can't feel me. He is at a critical moment now. If I interrupt him directly, I can probably hit him hard, and then I can go over and deal with it."

While he hasn't refined the souls of those children, he can also let those children return to the underworld and have a chance to be reincarnated. As for his soul, Blackbird said that the other party has demon blood, and it can absorb the soul. "

Hearing this, Qingyan frowned and sent a message to Chou Chou: "Absorb his soul? Wouldn't the black bird become as harmful as that guy?"

Chou Chou also sent a message to reply: "Don't worry, it won't do anything if I'm watching. That guy doesn't have a body. It can indeed strengthen itself by absorbing the souls of other monsters. As long as its own soul is strong, it will not be affected by others." The influence of the memory carried by the soul.”

Since Chou Chou said there was no problem, there should be no problem, and Qingyan would not be bothered.

However, he still told Chou Chou: "Then you should be more careful, don't take it lightly, and be careful about sailing the ship of ten thousand years."

Chou Chou nodded, "I will, and I will get out when I find something is wrong."

After saying that, he covered his entire consciousness.

Qingyan was still worried, so she also used her spiritual sense to see if she needed help.

Then I was surprised to find that Chou Chou just used his spiritual consciousness to extinguish the lamps, knock over the liquid on the coffin, and mess up the surrounding furnishings. Then the half-demon host vomited blood and fell to the ground.

His body was crooked, his legs were still sitting cross-legged, leaning on the ground like that, his face was like gold paper, and he felt like he was getting more air out and less air in.

Qingyan twitched the corner of her mouth speechlessly and said to Chou Chou: "Is it that simple?"

Chou Chou: "Ang ~ What else do you think? Didn't I say that he is at a critical moment now, just interrupt him from casting a spell.

He is fusing other people's souls, and his own soul is also in a state of being separated from the body. As long as the spell casting is interrupted so that his soul cannot return to its original body, he will die naturally.

It's almost done. I'll take Blackbird to finish up there. You and Youqian should pay attention. "

Within seconds of saying this, Chou Chou appeared directly in the underground altar.

Qingyan's consciousness looked over there and reached out to touch her side, and sure enough, she was gone.

The speed of this guy must be too fast. A few seconds passed. It seems that it has recovered a little and is stronger.

Over there, Chou Chou opened his claws and said to the soul bead in his palm: "Only you are allowed to absorb the soul of this half-demon, not the other children. They still have a chance to reincarnate."

The bead, along with the base and the red string, jumped, as if nodding in agreement.

Immediately afterwards, Qingyan saw a translucent mist in the air penetrate into the soul bead, and then the soul bead returned to its original state with a flash of brilliance.

Chou Chou directly received it into the space and let it digest in the space. The space was not full of evil energy. The place where Yin Jin's body was placed was isolated by it. There was Yin energy there, which was most suitable for soul training. .

Then he turned around in the underground altar. The half-demon abbot had completely lost his breath due to the disappearance of his soul.

Chou Chou waved his paw and saw a dozen other translucent mist masses still floating in the air disappear.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Liugen's coffin also disappeared. Chou Chou ducked out of the way, and when he appeared, there were four more lifeless corpses in the underground altar. They were the people who had been guarding the entrance outside.

Except for the blood stains on the corner of the host's mouth, the four people seemed to be asleep. If their chests didn't rise and fall, it would be hard to tell that they were corpses, and I don't know how Chou Chou did it.

When Chou Chou returned to the wooden house, Qingyan looked at it and asked, "You won't put Zhang Liugen's body in your space, will you?"

Chou Chou shook his head, "How is that possible? Why did I put him in the space? I sent him directly back to Shanggang Village. I put him directly in the tomb and sent his soul back with him.

Although he is a bit mentally retarded, his soul still has some sanity, and he can still express his wish to see his parents and sister again, so he sent the souls of those children back together. When they realize their wish, they can probably go to the underworld and be reincarnated. Reincarnated.

There are also some children who may be from other places and have been dead for a long time. They can no longer tell where they are from, so I just put them together so that they can follow them together. "

Qingyan: "There is an underworld in this world. Will there be ghosts and the like who come to lock the soul?"

Chou Chou: "No, in this world people's souls naturally return to the underworld after death. Unless they use special methods or have too deep obsession to stay in the human world, they usually leave.

Of course, if those souls do not leave after a long time, they will slowly dissipate in the world without any cultivation methods. "
