Ruthless Seeker

Gu Zhuo found a dead cow in a man's home.

The cow had almost no external injuries, but strangely lost all blood and turned into a mummy.

After confirming that Ye Fan and Yu Qiangren were not nearby.

"Stand up!"

Although the cow had become a mummy, its brain was not damaged, so it could still become a corpse puppet.

The cow slowly stood up, its eyes dull, and had turned into a corpse puppet.

"Search the soul"

This is a corpse technique. Gu Zhuo's corpse seal reached ten threads, finally reaching the minimum usage requirements.

The next moment, black air came out of Gu Zhuo's hand, and he slapped the cow's head.

The next moment, the mirror image of the cow before death appeared in Gu Zhuo's mind.

On a quiet day, a middle-aged man came to the cowshed to feed the cow. Everything was normal, but the middle-aged man suddenly stopped moving and his eyes turned red.

The middle-aged man seemed to lose consciousness and became a puppet. It was quite similar to the corpse puppet that Gu Zhuo had just controlled.

The middle-aged man was motionless in place. After a while, he seemed to be under control and limped out of the house.

After a while, the other people in the family also walked out of the house one after another, with lifeless eyes. A woman was holding a child in her arms.

This scene was too weird, and Gu Zhuo frowned fiercely.

An hour later, a man in black entered the house.

"Yes, a lot of blood was harvested this time. Hahaha, the injury of the steward will probably be healed soon."

The man in black laughed to himself and came to the side of the cow.

He took out a blood-colored bead, and the next moment the cow's skin began to bleed continuously. The blood flew into the blood-colored bead.

"Although the blood of animals is not as good as that of humans, it cannot be wasted."

The cow fell to the ground in pain, and the mirror image shattered soon.

"Deacon?"

Gu Zhuo was a little surprised.

The stewards of the Blood Demon Road are at least second-level strongmen.

There was actually one who escaped to such a remote place as Xiaobiancheng.

The person who just held the bead was estimated to be around the middle of the first level and was not a threat.

Then Gu Zhuo withdrew his ability, and the cow turned into a corpse again.

Gu Zhuo then tried a few more corpses, and the results were similar.

First, the people were controlled, and then a man in black came and sucked the livestock into mummies.

The man in black was obviously not the same person, and that person had more than one subordinate.

"That person said that the deacon was seriously injured, and it is estimated that he is still recovering from his injuries. I may take the opportunity to kill the deacon."

A demon deacon can definitely get a lot of things, and Gu Zhuo is also very interested in these demon skills and knowledge.

An ordinary first-level demon member may not know much, but a deacon must know a lot.

You can even try to transform into a corpse puppet.

Gu Zhuo lowered his head and thought, there were several first-level subordinates around the deacon.

It was very troublesome. Although the first-level cultivators could not pose a threat to him now, these demons were always weird, and there was also a deacon whose strength was unknown.

"It just so happens that there are those two people, so I can ask them to help."

The most important thing is to find the hiding place of the demon group first.

Gu Zhuo found that all the controlled people were walking to the west.

Gu Zhuo also tried to find clues. Gu Zhuo walked all the way west, and everything was normal along the way.

There was a forest to the west.

Gu Zhuo walked very fast. After two hours, Gu Zhuo felt something was wrong. It was too quiet. The birds and animals in the forest seemed to have disappeared.

The road ahead was blocked by a cliff.

"What's going on? It's probably nearby. They can't control ordinary people to go too far."

Gu Zhuo carefully investigated the surroundings and finally found a footprint.

"This should be the mud stepped on on a rainy day."

The direction of the footprint was facing the cliff.

Gu Zhuo walked straight from the footprint. When he reached the cliff, Gu Zhuo stretched out his hand forward, and Gu Zhuo's hand actually went through the cliff directly.

"It's an illusion!"

Gu Zhuo entered the cave carefully, and a bloody smell rushed straight to the top of his head.

"This is it, and then I have to leave clues."

Gu Zhuo did not go deeper, it was too dangerous.

Gu Zhuo began to deliberately leave traces, and Gu Zhuo deliberately left a mark every few meters.

Gu Zhuo didn't stop until he reached the vicinity of Heijia Village and returned to the village.

When the sun was about to set, Gu Zhuo came to the meeting place.

Ye Fan and Yu Qiangren were already waiting. Both of them looked unhappy and obviously had not found any clues.

"The remnants of the evil are indeed cunning. They didn't leave any traces."

Yu Qiangren said angrily.

Ye Fan also nodded. He found that there were no missing villagers, not even a drop of blood.

Seeing that Gu Zhuo and the others didn't have any hope.

"Brother Gu, do you have any clues?" Yu Qiangren asked casually without any hope.

Gu Zhuo pretended to be thoughtful and said: "I searched in the village for a long time, but still had no clues. Then I did find a footprint near the village. It led to the forest, which was quite suspicious."

This news instantly cheered up Ye Fan and Yu Qiangren.

"Where is the footprint?"

Arriving at the scene, there was indeed a footprint leading to the depths of the forest. This was actually deliberately stepped on by Gu Zhuo.

"There are actually footprints. This may be a clue left by the remnants of the evil ways." Yu Qiangren was a little excited.

"But how could the remnants of the evil ways be so cautious and leave such obvious clues?" Ye Fan was a little puzzled.

"Won't we know if we go and have a look?"

After saying that, Yu Qiangren followed the footprints directly.

Although Ye Fan had doubts, he could only follow.

Gu Zhuo followed behind.

Following the footprints, the sun set and the surroundings fell into darkness, but it was not a problem for cultivators like Gu Zhuo and Ye Fan and warriors like Yu Qiangren.

Finally, they arrived at the stone wall.

"The clues are cut off here." Ye Fan and Yu Qiangren also felt that the surroundings might be the base of the demons, so they spoke in a low voice.

They began to look for clues around and soon found that one part of the stone wall was an illusion.

After they quietly entered, they really smelled a strong smell of blood.

"This is it, the gathering place of the demons."

"Let's go in and kill them all at once." Yu Qiangren said and wanted to go deeper.

But he was pulled back by Ye Fan.

"We don't know the depth of the demons inside. I suggest we go back and report first." Ye Fan's doubts were even greater. He felt that everything was too coincidental.

Seeing Ye Fan wanted to leave, Gu Zhuo said: "There may still be civilians alive in there. They will definitely be dead when we come back."

"Besides, how strong can the remnants of the evil ways be?" Gu Zhuo added.

Ye Fan was stunned and hesitated. He also grew up in the village. He knew the suffering of these ordinary people, so he was more friendly to civilians. He thought of his grandfather's death again.

"As knights, how can we watch people die without helping? Brother Ye, I became brothers with you because I saw that you have a chivalrous heart. Why are you so hesitant now?" Yu Qiangren was also a little dissatisfied.

Ye Fan finally compromised because he was defeated by two people. The three of them slowly explored deeper together.
