Chapter 286 Iron Armor Skill

Xu Ling, who was dragged out of the cell, did not struggle. Maybe he was mentally prepared, or maybe he was too numb.

The sky, which I haven't seen for a long time, is still gray, and the lead-gray clouds are motionless, like a frozen oil painting.

The scenery that had remained unchanged since she was born was suddenly filled with sadness.

This world is like a cage that will soon cover her short life.

Waves of cold wind blew through the empty streets, making a whining sound. In the simple houses on both sides of the street, there was no human habitation. Only from a three-story attic not far away, painful moans of men and women could be heard from time to time. .

"Boss is really full of energy!" A guard looked at the attic in the distance and said with envy.

"There's nothing else to do in this damn place!"

Another guard licked his lips, also looking envious.

The two of them crossed the street and walked toward the attic.

They did not go through the main entrance, but went around to the yard at the back.

Before he even entered, a lingering smell of blood hit his face. Xu Ling's heart couldn't help but beat hard, and she felt a trace of fear again.

No matter how numb the mind is, it is difficult to remain calm in the face of death.

How she hoped that someone could come and save her!

She suddenly felt a little regretful as to why she had to act so self-righteously. She was obviously not much older than the other boys and girls.

With a creak, the courtyard door was pushed open.

There is nothing too scary inside. There are several hanging-like racks, more than a dozen different types of knives, and several stoves. They are all very clean. After all, they are cultivators, so they can be cleaned up with just a few spells.

The smell of blood, which smelled very pungent outside, became much lighter in the yard. The only trace of peculiar smell came from a small pile of hair and bones in the corner.

"Who took care of it today? Why is it still left in the corner?!"

After hanging the two people on the shelf, one of the guards pointed to the hair in the corner and said.

"It must be that lazy guy named Lao Wu who always likes to collect things together and deal with them!" another guard complained.

"Ignore him! I think he will inevitably be dealt with sooner or later!"

After saying that, the two of them each picked up a knife, blessed the Ruijin surgery, and walked towards Xu Ling's cousin. Then Xu Ling saw the horrific scene of disembowelment.

Because of the magic she was blessed with, she couldn't move. She could only watch her cousin die with his face twisted.

The two guards were already used to it and were even in a mood to comment.

Xu Ling on the other side was trembling with fear and almost fainted.

After taking care of the boy, the two guards walked towards her. The two people who had been cleaned with magic showed no blood on their bodies and had smiles on their faces. If they hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, no one would have thought that they were doing the job of killing people. .

"Who will save me? Who will save me? As long as you can save me, I will do anything you want!"

Xu Ling kept praying in her heart.

As if her prayers had an effect, an old man in blue suddenly appeared in front of her.

My hair and beard are all gray, and I am extremely old, as if I am out of breath after walking a few steps.

But at this moment, in Xu Ling's eyes, he was like a god.

Facing the sudden appearance of the old man in blue, the two guards suddenly stopped in their tracks. Before they could react, whether to ask or call directly, the old man reached out to grab them, and the two souls were forced away from them. It was pulled out of his body and swallowed by the old man.

Xu Ling, who had just been rescued, was once again frightened.

Why does the old man in front of me feel more evil than the two guards?

The old man in blue ignored Xu Ling's complicated thoughts and closed his eyes for a few breaths. Then he reached out again and grabbed the attic in front of him. The next moment, densely packed souls flew out from it and were swallowed by the old man.

Xu Ling recognized one of the sinister middle-aged souls. He was the boss mentioned by the two guards, the murderer who hurt his father, and one of the original managers of the town.

She never expected that her father's murder would be avenged so easily.

Who is this old man? Could it be someone from the palace?

But the big shots in the palace don't seem to be that strong.

Xu Ling's thoughts were complicated, her mood was even more ups and downs, and she didn't know how to deal with it.

After I swallowed everyone's souls, I closed my eyes and took a few breaths. Suddenly a smile appeared on his face and he muttered: "I'm really lucky, I actually have a map of the entire territory."

After saying that, the old man was about to leave, but just as he took a step, he suddenly stopped and waved to her.

Xu Ling was so frightened that she thought her soul was about to be drawn out.

The next moment I discovered that this did not happen, but that the restraints on my body had been released.

"What's your name?" the old man asked casually.

"Xu Ling!" Xu Ling replied instinctively. At this time, she was still a little confused and didn't know why the other party let her go.

I don't know if it was her imagination, but the moment the old man heard her name, his body seemed to tremble, and his eyes suddenly softened.

"It seems like the two of us are really destined to be together!"

The old man formed a magic formula in his hand, which emitted green light and enveloped her body.

Xu Ling immediately felt light all over, giving birth to an unprecedented sense of comfort, and the accumulated poison in his body was instantly swept away.

Then the old man took out a storage bag from somewhere and put it in her hand.

"Leave the town and go north. If you meet anyone, tell me that I asked you to go there. There is enough in this storage bag to keep you safe."

After saying that, the old man disappeared from her eyes, and everything seemed like a dream.

It took a long time for Ling to react, and he didn't know what to do. He just knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times, then got up and ran outside.

…

"It can actually transform a person's body into this magic weapon. This iron armor skill is quite interesting!"

Xu Mu couldn't help but marvel as he recalled the techniques he had obtained from soul searching in his mind.

Although he did not collect the method of making corpse puppets in the town, he could deduce some clues from the techniques practiced by the townspeople.

First, capture some ordinary cultivators from the outside world, let them practice this special method, and transform their own physiques, which is equivalent to cultivating materials, and then further process them.

These people should be ordinary monks captured by Lord Jade and kept in captivity. However, with the death of Lord Jade, something happened here and it became a closed place of death.

Although it was a bit miserable, Xu Mu had seen so many things that he had no feelings for a long time.

On the contrary, it was the little girl whose name was similar to his daughter's that made him feel the slightest emotion.

"I wonder how Xiao Ling'er is doing now? One day I will kill that woman!"
