Su Yunfei, whose strength had greatly improved, was eager to find someone to compare with, so he found Ye Qingcheng and Dongfang Nan. As a result, one of them wanted to retreat to attack the Master's Mirror, and the other was busy with sect affairs, so they both rejected Su Yunfei's idea of discussing.
This made him very depressed.
After much thought, he decided to go to the sect affairs room to pick up some sect tasks.
Due to the great reputation of the Shushan Sword Tomb, there are many requests from various parts of the human race for the Shushan Sword Tomb to come forward to solve problems. Therefore, the sect affairs office has an extremely large number of tasks.
Tasks are divided into basic, intermediate, urgent and special levels according to difficulty.
Special missions are generally only accepted by powerful elders.
Su Yunfei browsed for a while and selected an urgent task.
In Tianshang City, Lingnan County, which is adjacent to Shu County, there were many newly buried corpses half a year ago. The graves were dug up the next day and the corpses disappeared mysteriously.
At first, the family members of the deceased thought that the deceased had turned into a ghost, which caused the family members and neighbors to panic. However, after many days, nothing strange happened, so the family members began to report it to the authorities.
The local government is also worried. In the past six months, there have been more than 200 cases of corpse theft. Although there has been no human or financial loss, the deceased was a large number of people, so the government still arranged for many officials to search for it, but nothing was found.
Finally, the owner of Tianshang City reported it to the Lingnan County Government. The county governor felt that the matter was too strange and should be related to the monks, so he asked the Shushan Sword Tomb to help investigate the case thoroughly.
After reading the file, the elder of the office felt that it should be related to the exorcism sect that had been wiped out, so he listed the matter as an urgent task.
------
After Su Yunfei accepted the mission, he said goodbye to Yueyao, and then flew to Tianshang City with his sword.
Tianshang City is a small city with a population of just over 100,000. It is located in the southwest of Lingnan County and is surrounded by mountains.
Entering Tianshang City, he found a house based on the files.
He knocked on the door, and the person who opened the door was a woman in her forties, with a graceful figure and a delicate face. She must have been a lady in her youth, but she must have been too sad recently, and the tears in the corners of her eyes were more obvious.
The woman opened the door and saw Su Yunfei. She was stunned for a moment, and then asked feebly: "What's the matter with this young master?"
Su Yunfei replied respectfully: "Hello, I'm here to investigate the recent body theft case. Can you tell me in detail?"
When the woman heard this, she sighed, then led Su Yunfei into the lobby, made him a cup of tea, and then said slowly: "My master passed away last month, and his body was found strange the day after he was buried.
He disappeared, and after reporting it to the authorities, the authorities also sent people to inquire, but in the end the murderer was still not found.
It's pity that my husband was a well-known philanthropist in Tianshang City for his good deeds, but he can't live in peace even after his death." After saying this, the woman couldn't help crying, and kept wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
Su Yunfei listened patiently. When he saw the sad woman, he felt very angry. These body thieves had gone too far and even wanted to steal the body of such a good old man.
Su Yunfei said to the woman: "I roughly understand, and I will definitely do my best to find the body thief."
The woman hurriedly wiped her tears and thanked Su Yunfei: "Then I'll thank you, Mr.
After walking out of the room, Su Yunfei took a long breath and felt a little annoyed. The clues he learned were of no help in finding the murderer. He visited several more houses and still found nothing.
He decided to find out if anyone had a funeral recently. After many inquiries, he learned that someone was being buried in a village outside the city today, so he secretly went near the village and hid.
At night, he found a new grave and was about to lie in ambush nearby to wait for the body robbers. Suddenly, torches lit up and a group of villagers armed with sticks surrounded him.
"Crazy corpse thief, I finally caught you today!" the villagers shouted angrily and excitedly.
Su Yunfei suddenly felt a little confused and hurriedly explained: "Everyone has misunderstood. I am not a body thief. I am here to catch a body thief just like you!"
"Bah! We caught him and he still didn't admit it! We knocked him out and sent him to the government tomorrow!" a villager said angrily.
A group of villagers began to besiege Su Yunfei, and then he knocked them all down three times.
The knocked down villager asked in horror: "What are you doing! Killing someone will cost you your head."
Su Yunfei also said angrily: "Once again, I am not a corpse thief!"
Then he spent all his efforts, and his voice was smoking when he spoke, to convince the villagers that he was not a corpse thief.
Then he and the villagers lay in wait here all night, but found nothing.
After waiting for three days and still finding nothing, some villagers lost their patience and left part of the way.
On the fourth day, the body robbers were still not there. The remaining villagers no longer had any patience. Some even complained: "If the body is lost, just throw it away. It's no big deal. I won't wait any longer. I might as well stay here at night."
Go home and sleep with your mother-in-law." Finally, all the villagers left.
Su Yunfei stayed alone until late at night, feeling restless. Suddenly he heard the sound of slight footsteps and slowly walked towards the tomb.
He immediately cheered up, calmed down his motivation, and walked in the direction of the footsteps. He did not immediately alert the person.
I saw the man taking out the shovel and starting to dig the grave very neatly. He looked around from time to time. His movements were very skillful. It was obvious that he was a habitual offender. Moreover, the aura exuding from this man was that of a steam engine from the entrance mirror.
Su Yunfei decided to see which direction he would go next.
After a while, the man dug out the body, and the air was filled with a disgusting smell of corpse. Su Yunfei had to shut down his sense of smell immediately.
The man put the body into a bag, carried it on his back and ran into a jungle. Su Yunfei immediately followed him. After chasing him deep into the jungle, the man disappeared out of thin air under Su Yunfei's nose.
He immediately searched around for several times but still couldn't find any trace of that person. He was suddenly confused as to whether that person knew the invisibility technique. Su Yunfei frowned in thought, his eyebrows furrowed into a Sichuan shape.
Suddenly he thought of the possibility that there should be a formation hiding the space here, so he began to sense the energy fluctuations around him.
About a quarter of an hour later, he finally reached a space node and entered without hesitation.
There is indeed a cave inside. No wonder so many government officials and ordinary people have been searching for months but can't find any trace of the corpse thief.
This place is terrifying and filled with endless gloomy atmosphere, like a netherworld, which makes people shudder.
Su Yunfei walked forward cautiously. After walking for a while, he found a cave on his left. He held his breath and slowly walked into the depths of the cave.
The cave was about the size of ten houses. Walking further inside, he saw a scene that made him a little frightened. He saw rows of corpses standing neatly, including young people wearing brocade clothes, and some wearing uniforms.
There were old men in Confucian robes, farmers in civilian clothes, etc. There were men, women, old and young, and there were more than 300 corpses.
Each corpse has its eyes tightly closed, its face is pale, and it exudes a strong evil aura, which makes people shudder.
Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps from the entrance of the cave. Su Yunfei quickly found a shadow to cover his body and hid. He saw two men walking in. One of them said doubtfully: "It's strange, I know it."
I sensed movement here, but why was there no sound when I got here?"
Another man yawned and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't be suspicious, our place has long been isolated from the outside world, and people outside can't be found at all.
After a period of time, when these corpses have grown to the level of breaking the mortal mirror, we can start a sect. Anyway, Lingnan County is high and the emperor is far away, so no one can control us."
When the two were about to leave, Su Yunfei suddenly acted. He first chopped off one person's head, then knocked the other person unconscious, and then sealed the entrance of the cave with sword energy. This series of actions was completed in a flash of lightning.
After waking up the man, Su Yunfei asked in a deep voice: "What kind of organization are you? Why do you dig up the bodies of those people?"
Seeing the tip of the sword pointed at his neck, the man was trembling with fear. He stammered: "We are the surviving disciples of the former Corpse Exorcist Sect.
In order to re-establish the sect, our senior brother needs new corpses to raise corpses. When these corpses are raised into ghost corpses, we can re-establish the sect."
Su Yunfei frowned and asked in confusion: "What are ghost corpses? Are there levels?"
The man swallowed his saliva and replied: "Ghost corpses are zombies in folklore. They are the lowest level and only have the combat power of Breaking the Mortal Realm. The next higher level is the human corpse, the combat power of the Dao Mirror, and then the earth zombies and the airborne warriors."
The combat power of the mirror is followed by the demon corpse, the venerable mirror combat power, the first-level king mirror combat power of the heavenly corpse, the second-level emperor realm combat power, the third-level emperor mirror combat power, and the divine corpse can be used to channel spirits.
It also has the combat power of the Divine Mirror. The highest combat power is the Immortal Corpse Immortal Mirror, which means the corpse becomes an immortal through channeling."
After listening to this, Su Yunfei's scalp felt numb. In the end, the corpse was able to channel spirits and actually attained enlightenment and became an immortal.
Su Yunfei asked again: "Who are the strong people here?"
The man answered cautiously: "The one with the highest level is the senior brother. He is at the king level, but he is not here recently and I don't know where he went.
There are also three senior brothers from the Venerable Mirror, and the others are all disciples from Po Fan to the Yukong Mirror, and by the way, there are also six demonic corpses?"
Su Yunfei was shocked. There were nine powerful warriors here, but fortunately that senior brother was not here, otherwise it would be difficult for him to deal with these people and corpses by himself.
"Tell me where they usually live?" Su Yunfei shouted.
The man hesitated, and after Su Yunfei scratched a bloody mark on his neck with the tip of his sword, he hesitated and said: "We have twelve caves here, and now this cave is used to raise these new animals."
For the corpses that come, the next cave entrance belongs to our ordinary disciples, then there is a cave for each of the three senior brothers, the middle one belongs to the senior brother, and after that are the cave entrances of the six demon corpses."
After Su Yunfei listened, he felt that he had almost understood it clearly, and then chopped off the man's head with a sword.
He began to think seriously about how to fight next!
