Chapter 208 Chapter Two Hundred and Four: Soul Leaving the Body

…

"Please, how is your investigation going?"

After closing the door, the bamboo hat was taken off, revealing the deliberately obscured face of Li Mu.

After entering the provincial capital, he immediately chose to meet Guan Bin, and then asked him to help follow up and investigate Shi Shaojian.

"I didn't find out. During this time, Shi Shaojian was either following Taoist Master Shi out or staying in the Demon-Suppressing Hall."

"But Mr. Li, isn't Shi Shaojian your senior brother? Why are you staring at him?"

Guan Bin was a little confused. Li Mu suddenly appeared in front of him before, and then asked him to help keep an eye on Shi Shaojian. Although he didn't like this person either, why did Li Mu not only not return to live in the Demon-Conquering Hall, but also conduct a private investigation on Shi Shaojian?

?

"Nothing, I just want to confirm something!"

Li Mu frowned and slowly shook his head. Regarding his suspicion that Shi Shaojian was the real flower picker, the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

The reason why he just frowned was because if Shi Shaojian was really who he suspected, it would be impossible for him to be so calm.

Then why haven’t we found anything during the past few days of tracking?

After coming out of the restaurant, Li Mu followed the crowd and bowed his head in thought. According to his guess, if it was really Shi Shaojian, with his character, he would definitely not be able to resist committing another crime during this period. Being so honest was not his style, so Li Mu decided

Prepare to keep track of it yourself.

In the evening, after the vendors around the Fumodo Hall finished their work and went home, the originally noisy market became quiet. Except for the occasional pedestrians passing by, there was no other movement.

At the entrance of Yitiao Alley diagonally across from the Demon-Suppressing Hall, a cart stood against the wall. The alley was dark, and Li Mu stared at the door of the Demon-Conquering Hall from behind the cart through the gap in the middle.

He has been guarding here for several hours. He has been guarding here since Shi Shaojian entered the Demon-Conquering Hall. He waited until it was almost time and did not see him make any move. Just when Li Mu thought that he had made the wrong preparation

When leaving, the door of the Demon-Suppressing Hall suddenly opened slightly and opened a crack.

Li Mu paused as he prepared to leave, then stared at the door. He saw a head sticking out from behind the door, looking left and right, and then his body emerged from inside.

Seeing his sneaky look, Li Mu raised his eyebrows and then hid his body in the shadows.

rustle…

The sound of the soles of shoes rubbing against the ground went from far to near and then from near to far. Shi Shaojian passed by the entrance of the alley. When only his back was left, Li Mu followed quietly.

I saw Shi Shaojian carefully avoiding the occasional passers-by all the way to a house and then stopped and turned around to look around. Li Mu immediately turned sideways and hid in a blind corner and looked around with his peripheral vision.

Then he saw Shi Shaojian unlocking the door and squeezing in. Li Mu's heart beat faster when he saw this. He knew that Shi Shaojian had always lived in Fumo Hall and did not need to buy a house outside, and he came here so late at night.

Come and say that there is no problem, Li Mu would not believe it even to death.

However, as Li Mu continued to keep an eye on Shi Shaojian until nearly dawn, he did not see any movement from Shi Shaojian. It seemed that he had just come to rest. Before dawn, Shi Shaojian returned to the Demon-Conquering Hall along the same route. This series of actions made Li Mu feel a little agitated.

Can't figure it out.

"No, there must be something wrong!"

Even if Li Mu had not preconceived the idea, Shi Shaojian's behavior was still so abnormal.

During the day, people were watching Guan Bin. Li Mu found Guan Bin again and asked him to check the ownership of the house to see if it belonged to Shi Shaojian.

You don't need to wait long for such a simple thing. Guan Bin quickly found out that it was indeed Shi Shaojian's, and he secretly purchased it not long after Li Mu left.

Li Mu found out that after the house was deconstructed, he found no other entrances and exits, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Is it really just for living?"

Without a clue, he immediately came up with this idea, but quickly gave it up.

If it were anyone else, he might doubt his own speculation, but this was Shi Shaojian. Based on Li Mu's understanding of him at the Demon-Following Hall, if he sneaked out of the Demon-Following Hall in such a sneaky way, even Shi Jian must not know that he was there.

There is such a house outside.

Therefore, Shi Shaojian must have something up his sleeve, but he hasn't discovered it yet.

It was another night, and Shi Shaojian came out of the Demon-Suppressing Hall when he was still around the same age.

After Shi Shaojian entered, Li Mu climbed over immediately behind him, lowered his body and touched the window, gently pierced the window paper and looked through the holes.

After Shi Shaojian entered, he directly lit the oil lamp in the room and then sat quietly on the futon.

Under Li Mu's gaze, he put his hands together and intertwined his fingers to form a hand gesture and then became still.

Seeing this scene, Li Mu's heart skipped a beat, and he thought thoughtfully for a moment, then opened his eyes. A cool feeling passed through his eyes, and Li Mu's eyes paused when he looked at Shi Shaojian again.

I saw another Shi Shaojian suddenly appearing in front of Shi Shaojian who was sitting cross-legged on the futon.

Li Mu's pupils trembled slightly and his mouth opened slightly, seeming a little stunned.

After he entered the spiritual path as a disciple, he naturally understood what he saw before him.

It is mentioned in the Maoshan classics that before entering the realm of Taoist priests to condense their souls, their souls are very fragile. Without the protection of the body, a breeze can cause damage to the soul, and one accident can damage the soul.

Therefore, the warning to all Maoshan disciples in the classics is that they are not allowed to leave the body before entering the mage realm.

Li Mu never stopped polishing his soul because he was learning the thunder method, but he did not dare to leave his soul like Shi Shaojian did.

However, Shi Shaojian's soul came out of his body without any discomfort at this time, which made Li Mu a little confused.

Staring at Shi Shaojian's soul, a bright light flashed in Li Mu's eyes and he suddenly understood.

Upon closer inspection, there is a layer of protection on the surface of Shi Shaojian's soul. It is this layer of protection that protects his soul.

However, this secret technique is a forbidden technique in Maoshan and is not allowed to be practiced.

According to the uncle's style, he would continue to favor Shi Shaojian, and it was impossible to teach Shi Shaojian such forbidden skills. After all, a careless move would hurt himself. So how did Shi Shaojian master this forbidden skill?

Moreover, the soul that has not been condensed will be like an ordinary ghost after leaving the body, without any abilities. What is the use of Shi Shaojian leaving the body at this time? What does he want to do?

Li Mu couldn't figure out the purpose of Shi Shaojian's soul leaving his body, so he could only continue to stare calmly.

After Shi Shaojian felt his own condition, he walked straight through the door and left outside.

Li Mu followed him until he came to a small courtyard. Shi Shaojian stood outside the courtyard wall and looked up at the attic window, his eyes flickering, and the corners of his mouth raised with a trace of amusement.

Li Mu found an obstacle about ten meters away from him and stared at him, then saw Shi Shaojian entering the attic.

"I'm going to suffer!"

Seeing this situation, Li Mu didn't understand what he wanted to do, so he quickly chased after him.

But he was not like Shi Shaojian who could ignore the wall and pass through directly. Moreover, it was still above the attic. Even if he could climb over the wall, he would not be able to get inside.

It's a bit difficult to write
