Summoner, He is Never Alone

With the help of the noble shovel, Ye Xu's digging efficiency has improved a lot. Because too much time had passed, and he couldn't see where it had been dug up, Ye Xu could only dig it bit by bit without any clue.

He didn't know how deep the original owner had dug. After thinking about it, he felt that the system was unlikely to embarrass the player, either because there was something like a map that he didn't find, or it was buried shallowly. So I didn't dig deep, just a shallow layer at the beginning.

It didn't take long for him to dig a square stone in the center of the house, on which some mysterious rune was drawn. After Ye Xu picked up the stone, the half-beaten ghost slowly dissipated.

The system popped up a message at the right time, informing Ye Xu that he had picked up the "Mysterious Soul Stone", but there was no specific introduction. Ye Xu studied it over and over for a while, but couldn't see any mechanism, so he had to throw it into his backpack first.

The ghost has disappeared according to the normal process, which means that it will not appear again in the future. It should be that the prohibition that imprisoned it has disappeared, and it can go to reincarnation. Then the stone itself is probably unable to store the soul, otherwise the ghost should not disappear, but should turn into a light point and return to the stone.

It is worth mentioning that there is a small thing like a progress bar in the back texture of the Soul Stone, and it has reached about 60% of the current position.

Ye Xu suspects that this thing can also collect energy, but it should collect soul energy. Combined with the fact that the ghost's strength is much weaker than the normal level 100 monsters, it may be that these ghosts have been drained of their soul power by the soul stone.

No wonder he saw that the soul itself is still intact, this ghost does not look like a remnant soul that has lost part of its soul. Presumably the soul itself has a certain amount of energy, but I don't know what it would be like to reincarnate after losing most of the energy.

Ye Xu remembered many novels he had read before, and there was a passage in it that said that people with weak souls would also become weak after reincarnation. If this is the case, then these villagers may be reincarnated as sickly seedlings or die young, and it is unknown how many times they will have to reincarnate to bring back their souls.

He believed that the stone would not be buried secretly by outsiders, which means that the stone was buried in the ground by themselves. It may be that they know that this thing can make their souls immortal after death and can live forever, but they did not expect that immortality is actually a price to pay.

Not only was the energy taken away, but it was also kept locked in the house and could not go out, even if it was immortal, what was the point of it. Knowing that there are still companions in other houses outside, but can only stay in the same place every day, and the ghost can't talk and communicate, it feels terrible to think about such a day.

Ye Xu always felt that these ghosts were not very rational, but now it seems that they have been locked up for a long time and have gone crazy.

He sighed for a while, then continued to dig in the ground. The ghost's mystery is solved, but the treasure he's trying to find isn't there yet.

After Ye Xu dug all the land, he couldn't find the so-called treasure. He was a little unwilling, but he didn't want to dig the whole house again, sitting there thinking about where things might be hidden.

Thinking about it, he suddenly thought of a question, why is the soul confined in the room? If the Soul Stone will limit a certain range, why is it exactly the same size as the house? All ghosts in the village are confined to one room, but their rooms are different.

Ye Xu felt that the stone itself should not have the ability to adjust the range, and there must be something else cooperating. And this kind of cooperation thing, just look for it against the wall.

Since it was inconvenient to dig down other walls, Ye Xu was afraid that the house would collapse, so Ye Xu went to the door first. It shouldn't be a problem if the soil here was dug.

Most of the undead build houses are not very particular, there is not even a threshold for the door, just dig it down. As soon as Ye Xu shoveled down, he quickly felt that he had dug up something, and hurriedly scraped away the surrounding soil.

I saw a long iron pipe below where the Soul Stone was buried at about the same depth. He cleared away the soil along the left and right, and found that the iron pipe seemed to form a frame under the wall, which framed the room inside. If nothing else, the reason why the ghost could not go out was because it was stopped by this.

He tapped it with a shovel, and there was a clear and hollow sound from the iron pipe, and there were some rustling movements. There seems to be a lot of small particles inside, I don't know what it is, you have to open it to find out.

With such a long iron pipe connected into a loop, it is difficult to dig out all of it. Even if there is a hole in the iron pipe, there is no way to get all the contents out of the pipe, unless the pipe is pulled up and down.

Ye Xu felt a bit of a headache, he thought about it, and decided to open a hole to see what it was. If it really doesn't work, I demolish the house. Anyway, it's not his home, so I don't feel bad if it's demolished.

The noble shovel was quickly switched to an awl for drilling holes. I didn't study it before, but I didn't know that this expensive high-end product not only had three modes: medicine shovel, mining hoe, and cooking knife. As a qualified tool, it can change a variety of modes, which is very easy to use.

The awl quickly opened a hole, but after Ye Xu opened it, he realized that he was stupid, what can be seen clearly in such a small hole. So I replaced it with a knife and tried to open a circular window on it.

The material of the iron pipe seems to be slightly inferior, not as strong and sharp as a knife, and a piece of iron was cut in a short while, revealing the contents inside. It was a random piece of metal particles, not specially polished into a fixed shape, but it shone beautifully under the moonlight.

Ye Xu reached out and grabbed a handful, and the system prompted him to pick up the "Sand of Soul", a rare item. Don't look at it as a small one, each of which is the size of a soybean, but this thing adds random special effects to the items when making life occupation products.

Of course, the strength of the effect is directly proportional to the amount added. If you really only add one pill, you may only get an effect of less than 1% randomly, at least five or ten.

My dear, how many pipes are there... and with so many houses here, the amount of soul sand that can be obtained is also very impressive.

Ye Xu himself didn't use it very much. His scroll effects were already very useful, and the special effects were completely unnecessary, but those pharmacists and equipment blacksmiths would really need this stuff.

He immediately took out the jade box and began to dig out the sand of the soul from the tube. Some places are too far to dig out, so simply open the opening a little bigger, and after a while, all the iron pipes at the entire threshold will become half-open.

As for the jade box for the stuff, it was the one he used to store snacks in the past. One box can hold a lot of snacks in individual small packages. After eating, the box will be empty. Because the price of recycling is not cheap, he didn't throw it away, and he can use it to continue to pack snacks in the future.

I have been staying in the Undead Continent these days, I have not replenished snacks, and I have eaten a lot of stock, but a lot of boxes have been emptied. I just used it to hold this joke. Isn’t it often written in cultivation novels that the treasures of heaven and earth must be packed in a jade box so that the medicinal properties will not be lost? Now it would be very suitable to use it to hold the sand of the soul.

After all, the sand of soul in the pipeline at the entrance is limited. If you want to get all of it out, you still have to smash the wall and dig soil. Ye Xu looked at this building and felt that his head was too big. After all this tossing, more than 100 houses had to be demolished, and the amount of work was too great.

Just when Ye Xu had a headache, the golden mouse slipped into the pipe, and soon the mouse's sac filled with sand of soul came out to trade with him. Ye Xu was immediately pleasantly surprised. Why didn't he expect that the golden mouse was just smaller than a pipe, so he could go in and fish for him.

Ye Xu immediately summoned a bunch of golden squirrels and put them all in. The mouse sac of the golden squirrel is really useful. Fortunately, it is there. If there are any other pets, even if the small size can withdraw the sand of the soul, it will easily block the nozzle due to the large number.

However, the rat sac is filled with grids that cannot be stacked, so it can only hold 2,000 grains of soul sand at a time, so it needs to come out and trade with Ye Xu every once in a while. Those little mice set off together, and finally came out together, basically bringing out all the sand of the soul, without having to make a second trip.

Ye Xu asked them to pile their things on the cloth on the ground and put them in the jade box. If he traded directly, it would fill up his backpack grid one by one, and he would definitely not be able to put it down.

I don't know if this irregularly shaped soul sand can be superimposed. He thought about it and thought that it should be possible. After all, not every piece of ore mined by the player has the same shape, isn't it still superimposed. But even if it can be stacked, it will take up a lot of grids, so it is more space-saving to use the jade box directly.

With the help of the golden mouse, there is no need to worry about collecting the sand of the soul. Ye Xu was in a good mood. After collecting this batch, he happily took the mice to the second room, not even looking for the treasure.

There are so many sands of souls here, it is obvious that there is no more treasure buried here, so the search is in vain. Anyway, no matter how you look at it, the sand of the soul is more valuable. I don't know if those treasures will be designated exclusively for the undead camp. How can anyone use the sand of the soul?

As for why the undead here can get so much soul sand, Ye Xu doesn't know. Maybe they were lucky and found a sand mine. It's none of his business. After so many years, even if there is a sand mine, it is estimated that it has been completely mined. He is very satisfied that he can get so much soul sand. Ask for more.
