Chapter 675: Borrowing a Corpse to Resurrect
After Fu Dahai finished speaking, there was silence around the fire for a while.
No one knows whether to feel sad about his luck or his misfortune.
To ease the embarrassment, Wu Xian looked at Guo Xiake: "What about you? How did you identify those evil spirits?"
Guo Xiake lowered his head and kicked the piece of meat on the ground with his toes.
"I…I was totally deceived."
"There are three evil spirits, who transformed into you, Jiang Huaian, and Yuan Buyai, and designed a series of tricks for me."
"You three all praised me and followed my instructions, making me more powerful than ever before. And when I was at my most proud, you launched a shameless sneak attack on me."
Lan Xuan asked in surprise: "How did you survive after being deceived to this extent?"
Guo Xiake pulled open his leopard print cloak, revealing his tortoise shell with several scratches: "It's simple, they didn't break through the defense..."
This tortoise shell is a magical instrument, named 'Shell of Prime Minister Turtle'.
Of course, this thing was not taken off after Prime Minister Turtle was slaughtered. It was more like Prime Minister Turtle’s office clothes. He had many turtle shells of different colors and styles in his wardrobe.
This turtle shell is strong and durable, and it has only one ability, which is that when encountering a crisis, the whole person can shrink into the shell.
"I was able to survive by hiding in my turtle shell. In order to force me out of my turtle shell, the three evil spirits even..."
"Oh, let's not talk about it anymore. It's all over."
Even for Guo Xiake, who often encountered bad luck, the experience of hiding in a turtle shell to survive was so embarrassing that he did not want to recall it.
Then Wu Xian and Fan Qingyue told everyone about their experiences.
After this exchange, the six people reunited and broke the grudge caused by the disguised evil spirit, and restored their relationship as teammates with a slight level of trust.
Next, it’s time to deal with the captured prisoners.
After being caught, this disguised evil spirit tried several times to break free from the chains and escape, but Huang Yuanjiang was always staring at her, and she had no chance of escape at all.
Wu Xian walked towards the fake Han Yu and stretched out his hand towards her. One end of the soul-binding chain on her body moved into Wu Xian's hand, but the other end was still on the fake Han Yu's body, firmly hooked on her belly.
After getting this magic weapon, Wu Xian has been developing and applying it based on the shape of the chain, sometimes it is a finger tiger, sometimes it is a whip.
But the core ability of this magic weapon is...
Seductive!
Every time the soul is hooked, the length of the soul-hooking chain will be shortened. The effect of hooking souls varies from person to person. It is almost completely ineffective against powerful evil spirits, but it is obviously not ineffective against disguising evil spirits.
Wu Xian lifted the chain, and the fake Han Yu's belly was pulled up high.
"I discovered that when the strange sound of "Wooah" was heard, an abnormal light would appear on the evil spirit. This flaw helped us to crack the evil spirit's disguise and resolve a major crisis."
"But after the danger passed, a question arose in my mind: why did these evil spirits have abnormal brightness after the strange noises arose?"
"Why do our bodies emit fluorescence when we are in this dark space?"
"These two questions have puzzled me..."
Before Wu Xian could finish his words, the fake Han Yu let out a shrill scream, which made it impossible for everyone to hear his words clearly, so Wu Xian could only step on her mouth to silence her.
"While thinking, I remembered another phenomenon that occurred when the strange sound of "Woo-ah" appeared. That is, invisible ghosts would reveal their whereabouts due to the strange sound of "Woo-ah", and the way they revealed their whereabouts was also to emit light." "So I lit the fire and rang the bell to attract everyone. In addition to letting my teammates reunite and reduce casualties, I also have two other purposes."
"One is to catch a disguised evil spirit for an experiment, and the other is to observe again those ghosts that appeared due to strange noises!"
“After those ghosts appeared, I quickly scanned each person’s face, and I actually found some duplicate faces!”
As Wu Xian spoke, he gradually exerted force, and the fake Han Yu's belly was almost broken open. A twisted green ball of light was vaguely pulled out by the soul-catching lock.
"We have confirmed before that many things in this blessed land are related to souls. Combined with this discovery, I have a guess about this dark space."
"Things in this dark space will glow according to the strength of their souls. This is true for our fluorescent bodies, ghosts, and evil spirits."
"Those ghosts are the lost souls and spirits of those who died in the Valley of the Dead!"
"These lost souls are usually too weak to emit even the slightest light, so they are almost invisible to us!"
"So in order to deal with us and avoid being discovered while disguising themselves as living people, these scattered souls spontaneously combined together to form evil spirits!"
"Because their souls are strong enough, the light emitted by these evil spirits is the same as ours. That's why they can disguise themselves as living people and deceive us."
"But this dark space has another characteristic."
"That's the strange sound. When the strange sound appears, the souls of all non-living people will be strengthened. This is also the reason why those ghosts will appear when the strange sound appears."
“But then, there comes the problem.”
"The evil spirit is composed of multiple ghosts, so when the strange sound of "wuah" appears, the evil spirit will appear abnormally bright!"
As soon as Wu Xian finished speaking, the fake Han Yu could no longer hold on, and figures with green light flew out of her stomach.
Each of these figures with green light is different. After flying out of the body, they quickly become invisible. This is enough to prove that Wu Xian's guess is correct.
But before the last figure flew out, Wu Xian took back the soul-binding lock.
After only a soul was left, the fake Han Yu's body lost its light, and something was still wriggling strangely under the skin. It was becoming difficult to control this body.
Before it completely collapsed, Wu Xian took out something and stuffed it into the mouth of this collapsing body.
That's a peach pit!
This peach kernel was a trophy that Wu Xian had obtained in the crack before. It was called the kernel of a small peach. The peach flesh had been roasted, but the peach kernel still had its miraculous effect, which was that it could gather scattered souls!
If different souls combine together to form vicious evil spirits, then what will happen if the same kind of souls combine together?
Wu Xian looked at the fake Han Yu's body expectantly.
Huh, huh...
Gusts of cold wind blew by, the flames of the fat fire began to shake, the fake Han Yu's body began to twitch, and the movement of the flesh under the skin gradually became regular.
After two minutes of summoning, the fake Han Yu changed from a freckled young girl into a hot blonde beauty!
The woman opened her eyes in confusion, sat up from the ground, looked at the six people around her, and a look of disbelief gradually appeared on her face.
Wu Xian squatted down and asked her: "Do you still remember your name?"
The woman thought for a moment and then said, "Fatima, my name is Fatima!"
