Beneath the tunnel was a small space, not even as large as the inn's room, and judging by the irregular walls and dirt, it was probably improvised excavation.
When Meng Xiao entered it, everyone was watching curiously around a high platform in the center of the dark room.
"This is the soul device that can take away other people's souls, it doesn't seem to be anything strange to be gray," Jin San tilted his head left and right, and said with doubts, but he clenched his hands tightly and didn't dare to reach out and touch them at will.
"That's what we thought at first, because it was like a toy when it was in the hands of the hairy fish.
As a result, so many lives were taken in an instant" Chen Lu shook his head with a sigh, Fang Wolf only became the city lord later, and now the only officials who have experienced what happened back then are Chen Lu and some veterans.
Yu's face was full of inexplicable meaning, and he said with some grievances: "Over the years, I have given most of my savings to the families of those sacrificed soldiers, just to be able to get a trace of understanding. ” Chen Lu sighed when he heard this, "Madam doesn't have to mind too much, we didn't have too much resentment about the original matter, after all, the situation of the soul being out of control is not so rare."
What's more, Xiaoyu was only three years old at the time, and he didn't have the least judgment at all.
Besides, it is enough for you to atone for your sins for so many years, and everyone has forgiven you."
Yu Shi's eyes saw that the sad body was about to kneel down again, but fortunately, everyone was already somewhat immune to this sudden attack, and they all stepped out to support it.
"It turns out that this soul device is so virtuous" Meng Xiao approached from behind, he didn't have any scruples and directly reached out to touch it.
It was a black flag, half a man tall in all directions, and the gray appearance was completely invisible, and in the center of the flag were three skulls arranged from top to bottom, all of which were silver.
It's not very special when you look at it from afar, but as you get closer, it feels eerie.
"Adults be careful" Chen Lu hurriedly pressed Meng Xiao's shoulder, "Although no one controls this soul tool, it can still absorb people's souls."
Meng Xiao asked curiously, "Then how did you transfer it here?"
Fang Wolf replied: "After losing the control of people, the function of this soul tool to absorb souls is all concentrated on those three skeletons, as long as you are careful not to touch it."
Meng Xiao nodded when he heard this, gently pulled up the two corners of the flag with both hands, looked up and down, but did not see any peculiarities, thought about letting everyone retreat a little and at the same time slowly input a trace of spiritual power, originally wanted to see the special function of this soul tool, who knew that spiritual power was like a mud cow entering the sea, and it could not be used at all.
Chen Lu, who had already retreated to the exit, said: "We have no way to use this soul tool, so it can be seen that the owner of this soul tool must still be alive, so unless the owner of the soul tool agrees, it will not be able to exert special abilities, after all, this is not a sword soul tool that only uses chopping." ” Meng Xiao nodded, and suddenly said, "You haven't let Xiaoyu touch this flag since then."
Chen Lu replied: "No, because this does not prove anything, if someone really wants to plant the blame, just give Xiaoyu the right to use." ” Meng Xiao put the flag back on the high platform again, "Looking at this thing, it looks like it is very in the style of the Soul Refining Sect, then, let's talk about the previous crimes of the Soul Refining Sect."
"At first, we didn't see that those people were from the Soul Refining Sect, they were originally very cautious, and the reason why their identities were revealed was because a thief stole their baggage while they were out, and then found the soul bead in it, which alarmed the Hanging Mirror Division."
Chen Lu continued.
"It so happened that the thief reported the crime" "It should be."
"What should it be" Meng Xiao heard that there were twists and turns in the middle.
I only heard Chen Lu say awkwardly: "At that time, the letter was delivered to the branch department, and the messenger did not show up, but only reported the matter because of the responsibility of being a person from the country of light."
Later, we went to the inn based on this report, and sure enough, we got into a fight with those people.
They weren't many at first, but they were all battle-hardened, and it was difficult for my spies to take advantage of them.
Fortunately, we had a numerical advantage, and in the end we were able to catch three, but we also ran two. ” "What about the three prisoners," Meng Xiao asked.
Chen Lu choked up and said helplessly: "Not long ago, the gang of thieves who ran away suddenly reconvened their manpower to attack the Hanging Mirror Division, and when they rushed into the evidence room, several people also sneaked into the cell and rescued them."
Meng Xiao blinked, and after thinking about it, it was not surprising that the spies under Chen Lu and the soldiers in the Fang Wolf City Lord's Mansion had parallel strength.
After everyone saw the soul device, they rushed out, and everyone didn't ask anything more, just followed closely behind Meng Xiao.
Fang Wolf sent everyone out of the house and went back, Meng Xiao said to the Yu family: "Madam, let's go back first, you have been waiting for more than ten years, and you don't care about this short month, please rest assured, I will definitely let Xiaoyu be free." ” After watching Yu Clan's joyful departure, Jin San said thoughtfully: "My lord, how long do you think it will take for those people from the Soul Refining Sect to come back?"
"It doesn't matter if you come or not, what matters is why you came" Yu Long'er said and looked at Meng Xiao, who also looked inexplicable, but unlike everyone, he didn't care if the people from the Soul Refining Sect would come again.
"What do you see?"
asked Kim San.
Yu Long'er said: "As far as I know, the Soul Refining Sect people are completely led by a powerhouse of the Dao Realm when they carry out their tasks, coupled with a squad mode of several mortal realm cultivators.
The few people who were discovered by Master Chen were more like a few Soul Refining Sect disciples who were in a hurry, and this whole thing gave me the feeling that someone was deliberately making trouble for the Soul Refining Sect. ” "Who is the bastard who dares to use the Hanging Mirror Division as a gun," Chen Lu frowned, greatly dissatisfied.
Yu Long'er thought for a while and asked, "Master Chen, do you remember what else happened that day?"
Chen Lu grinned in embarrassment, "This Fancheng is usually very peaceful, if you have to say anything, the Yu family came to sue again that day, but this is basically a fixed program that appears every year." ” Jin San said abruptly on the side: "If you say so, Yulong'er's guess is very likely to be true."
However, I don't think this is to make trouble for the Soul Refining Sect, but more like asking for trouble for us."
"What do you mean, why don't I understand what you said at all," Chen Lu looked confused.
Jin San smiled and said: "Maybe the truth is just like what Yu Long'er said before, those few Soul Refining Sect disciples are really just passing by, but someone reported them not for the responsibility of the Kingdom of Light, but to make them notice that the Yu clan is like you said, the Yu clan has to sue once a year, so this is basically something that everyone in Fancheng knows."
This person may have known for a long time that you would not be able to catch those disciples of the Soul Refining Sect, so someone would inevitably look for reinforcements and report the matter of the Yu Clan, which led to the subsequent incident of the Hanging Mirror Division.
They want to save people and snatch soul equipment."
Chen Lu's face was full of astonishment when he heard this, "Is it so complicated, who is this person What is the motive If it is really like what you said, this person must know the affairs of the Yu clan very well, and he also knows the whereabouts of the disciples of the Soul Refining Sect."
If that soul tool is really taken away by someone from the Soul Refining Sect, what benefit can this person get from it?"
Jin San shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile, "I'm just reasoning, in fact, the only contradiction in the whole thing is here."

I really can't figure out what the motivation of this person behind the scenes is, and what benefits he can get.
As he spoke, he looked at Meng Xiao.
Meng Xiao may have felt it, everyone's gaze, and said: "You should think that this person is really a thief, after all, there are still many good people in the country of light."
Everyone gave him an angry look when they heard this, but Yu Long'er unexpectedly pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, just take it as a coincidence, so what were you thinking just now?"
Meng Xiao scratched the back of his head and asked, "Have you heard the story of the wolf coming and Little Red Riding Hood when you were a child, if you had to choose, would you say that you would go to the wolf first or find Little Red Riding Hood first?"
