"Exactly one year apart? In other words, that day happened to be the death anniversary of the widow in the village." Meng Xing said.
"Yes! Yes! Young hero, thanks to you reminding me, I remembered it. This matter revealed something strange. It was such a coincidence." Muramasa said with some excitement.
"So, there's something wrong with that cave? We have to go in and check." Gu Qingzhuo said.
"However, that boulder is very big. I'm afraid it will take more than a dozen people to move it," Muramasa said.
"It doesn't matter, I have a solution! Let's go together!" Gu Qingzhuo said.
Now is the time for him to show off. He has been suppressed by Meng Xing just now, which really makes him depressed.
At this time, he was naturally extremely positive and excited, feeling that he must perform well in front of women such as Xiao Yuluo and Luo Yao.
Luo Yao, Zhou Ruoqing, Ye Xuelian and others followed him. Xiao Yuluo glanced at Meng Xing and said, "Do you want to go together?"
Meng Xing showed a thoughtful expression and said, "You go ahead and I'll think about it later."
The system has warned that it might be more risky if you go there, and your strength needs to be hidden. It will be troublesome if you have to show it when the time comes.
Therefore, Meng Xing planned to take a look from a distance and not disturb the muddy waters. Since Gu Qingzhuo liked to show off, let him behave well.
Capt. Li and the other two agents also followed up. They were from the Yamen, so naturally they had no shirk in their duties. The village leader was also curious and followed with a few young and strong villagers.
After a while, everyone left, leaving Meng Xing alone in front of the village. Meng Xing thought for a while, then followed from a distance.
When Gu Qingzhuo saw that Meng Xing did not follow, he snorted and said, "You coward, you don't dare to follow."
"Meng Xing is still thinking about solving the case, and his cultivation level is only at the third level of Pulse Realm. He can't help here. How can you say he is a coward?" Xiao Yuluo's face was somewhat dissatisfied.
Gu Qingzhuo felt even more sour in his heart. Xiao Yuluo really cared about Meng Xing and actually protected this kid at every turn.
Luo Yao was still very surprised by Meng Xing's talent in analysis just now. He was able to find some clues from some trivial things, but that was it.
In this world, strength is still king. Without strength, no matter how clever you are, it is useless.
Ye Xuelian also disagreed, but Zhou Ruoqing was the only one who admired Meng Xing very much. His analysis just now was succinct and he was in control of the overall situation, just like a powerful person in a superior position.
Soon, everyone arrived at the foot of the remote mountain behind the village and saw the cave blocked by huge rocks.
Gu Qingzhuo walked to the boulder and observed it for a while. The boulder was about as high as his shoulders and so wide that two or three people could hug it. He said, "I can move this boulder."
Gu Qingzhuo stood on his feet, took a good posture, stabilized his waist, and started to run the technique. A golden light flickered and flowed between his hands.
He opened up the golden spiritual veins, so the vitality he displayed was also golden.
Holding the boulder with both hands, he let out a loud roar and a roar. In the astonished eyes of the villagers waiting for him, Muramasa moved the boulder to one side, revealing the entrance of the cave.
"Young hero is truly a god!" Muramasa exclaimed and gave a thumbs up.
Gu Qingzhuo had a proud face, smiled slightly, and said slightly modestly: "For us Zhenwu Sect people, this is a trivial matter."
"This cave seems a bit eerie and weird, there is actually cold air coming out." Xiao Yuluo said.
Everyone had already felt it, and a trace of cold air came out of the cave entrance.
The villagers couldn't help but shrink their necks, and with a hint of fear, they stepped back a little further.
"It's dark inside, you have to hold a torch to go in and take a look," Luo Yao said.
The village leader quickly asked the villagers to get the torch and handed it to Gu Qingzhuo.
Gu Qingzhuo held a lit torch, bent down, and entered first.
The entrance of this cave is a bit small, but after entering three feet, it suddenly becomes clear that it is a cave as big as a house.
"Roar!"
At this moment, a shrill scream sounded in front, followed by a sinister figure rushing toward him. With a bang, the torch in Gu Qingzhuo's hand went out. Gu Qingzhuo was so frightened that he quickly threw away the torch.
With a sound, the long sword was drawn out, and the spiritual energy circulated, slashing towards the void.
The long sword burst out with golden light in the darkness, and Gu Qingzhuo also saw clearly the scene in the cave. A gloomy figure retreated back to a corner of the cave.
"Ho! Roar!"
The figure kept roaring, its body was twisted, and its face was also twisted, but its figure was a bit illusory, like a ghost.
Suddenly, the figure twisted its body and rushed towards Gu Qingzhuo. The speed was so fast that Gu Qingzhuo had no time to draw his sword. With a bang, a pair of strange hands struck him and blasted him out of the cave.
The shrill roar coming from the cave had frightened the villagers outside to tremble. When they suddenly saw Gu Qingzhuo flying out, they couldn't help but scream in surprise. Among them were Zhou Ruoqing and Ye Xuelian.
A woman's scream.
"ah!"
The sound shook the small mountain village, startled the birds in the bamboo forest, and caused a burst of chickens and dogs to bark.
Gu Qingzhuo fell at the entrance of the cave, blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and his face turned pale.
Luo Yao quickly helped him up and said in a trembling voice: "Senior Brother Gu, what happened? What's inside?"
Xiao Yuluo stood in front of the cave entrance, holding a long sword and being on guard. She looked back at Gu Qingzhuo with some concern in her eyes.
"Inside, there is a Yin Shen who has cultivated into the Taoist system. She is a woman, but she does not have a physical body. Be careful...be careful! Poof!" Gu Qingzhuo spurted out another mouthful of blood.
"What? If she doesn't have a body, isn't she a female ghost?" Muramasa was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, his face turning pale.
The other villagers were so frightened that they turned and ran away, shouting: "Ghost! Ghost! Run!"
These villagers don't know the cultivation system, so they naturally think that those without bodies are ghosts.
Captain Li and the other three detectives were also trembling, and Captain Li said in a trembling voice: "Young heroes, what should we do now? We have provoked a female ghost. This female ghost will come to kill us at night, no matter how far away she is, thousands of miles away.
"
Many legends about ghosts appeared in Li Captou's mind involuntarily.
"This Yin God has no physical body and cannot go too far, otherwise it will be killed by thunder. You don't have to worry. Now she can only come out at night and move around more than ten miles away." Xiao Yuluo said, forcing
Calm yourself.
"So, the death of the five scoundrels in the village was caused by this evil spirit?" Capt. Li breathed a sigh of relief, and said with some composure in his mind.
"It should be." Xiao Yuluo said.
To be honest, this is the first time Xiao Yuluo has seen a disembodied Yin God. Under normal circumstances, this kind of Yin God cannot live long after leaving the body.
But the Yin God doesn't know what's going on, and seems to have survived in this cave for a long time.
What she said was based on the knowledge she had learned.
"If the sixth-grade Yin God in the Taoist cultivation system had a physical body, he would be extremely powerful. None of us can be the opponent of the Yin God realm master." Xiao Yuluo said with a solemn expression.
Their strongest one is the eighth-level phase condensation realm, which is two realms lower than the sixth-level realm.
"However, without a physical body, it will become very weak. Compared with the original strength, it will be one or two realms behind."
"Her current strength should be between the eighth-level phase condensation realm and the seventh-level god refining realm." Xiao Yuluo said.
"Then what should we do now?" Li Captor asked.
Li Captou is just an ordinary person and doesn't understand the martial arts system, so he is at a loss about all this.
"It's okay! I'm feeling a little better. I'll join forces with Junior Sister Xiao later and we should be able to kill that Yin Goddess female cultivator." Gu Qingzhuo took a healing elixir and looked a little better.
Meng Xing saw this scene in the distance. Although he had expected it, he was also shocked. He didn't expect that there was really a huge danger in the cave.
The shrill scream gave Meng Xing goosebumps all over his body.
Fortunately, he didn't break into the cave alone or lead him into the cave. Otherwise, he would have ended up like Gu Qingzhuo, being beaten until he vomited blood.
Sure enough, the system rewards are not that easy to get. It is better to obtain stable basic attribute points honestly.
