Chapter 238 The Truth
Watching Lu Jianchi and Jin Youdao disappear around the corner of the cave, Wu You withdrew his hand.
"What a moving love story! Even though Brother Jin is in this state now, Brother Lu still hasn't given up. He's willing to take him to the ends of the earth to find talented and extraordinary people. Their love is so deep, it's known throughout the world."
"Wu You, what are you muttering about? Your pen looks really convenient, could you lend me one?"
Fang Duobing didn't hear what Wu You was saying, but he was somewhat tempted as he looked at the pen that had returned to her hand.
"I didn't say anything, it's inconvenient." Luckily, no one heard me, otherwise my image would have been ruined.
Wu You glanced at the pen in her hand and casually put it into her bag. It had become a habit during her school days; she would automatically start spinning the pen as soon as she picked it up and forget to put it back.
"How is it inconvenient? I think Li Lianhua uses it quite conveniently to write prescriptions." Fang Duobing was puzzled.
"It's inconvenient to give it to you."
Wu You: You can look at it, but why do you want to own it?
"Oh." Fang Duobing blinked his big eyes, a hint of disappointment in them, his gaze fixed on Wu You's bundle.
"Oh, right, I just found something important in here. I'm afraid the Southern Yin people's purpose is not so simple."
After a long while, Fang Duobing turned around, pushed open a hidden door.
"I suspect this is a place where they specialize in studying the 'human head evil' (a type of malevolent spirit). Since Brother Lu is here, I didn't want them to get involved, so I didn't mention it earlier."
"Oh, Fang Duobing, I never expected you to be so thoughtful."
Wu You and Li Lianhua had just looked around and didn't see the manual for the Nan Yin people to refine the Human Head Demon, so they thought they had taken it out.
"Let's go in and take a look. It's hidden so well; maybe it contains what we're looking for."
Di Feisheng led the way into the dark room, and the others quickly followed.
Compared to outside, this place is not only well-ventilated, but also much brighter, making it a much more suitable place for people to stay.
“Look at these, what are they?” Li Lianhua pointed to the many patterns on a stone table.
The group approached and each picked up a card to examine.
"It should be an ancient mural copied from the wall, with human skulls used to raise insect eggs."
"This is clearly Nan Yin's ancient secret technique, the method for refining the Karmic Fire Gu."
"Come, come, let's arrange them in this order first, and we'll also study this great secret technique of Nan Yin."
Wu You instructed the group to arrange the papers in their hands.
"Why are there still some areas that are not clear? Was it not copied?"
"This notebook explains that the Karmic Fire Gu has been cultivated in the skull, and there is a distinction between the mother Gu and the child Gu. Once you master the mother Gu, you can control the child Gu to enter the host body."
Li Lianhua finished reading through the booklet in her hand and summarized it for everyone.
"So this Karmic Fire Gu is used to control people?"
Li Lianhua nodded in agreement.
"The Human Head Demon might have used this method as well, but what does that have to do with the Karmic Fire Gu?" Di Feisheng didn't understand.
"Because this is an evil technique of the Southern Yin, and the method of its creation has long been lost. Think about it, back then, the Southern Yin only had one Karmic Fire Gu left in the royal family, but now that the Southern Yin has been destroyed, the Karmic Fire Gu has disappeared."
"You mean that Nan Yin actually discovered these murals, but the depiction of the production process is incomplete, so the descendants of Nan Yin did not fully master the refining method."
"That's why they experimented again and again, turning those martial arts masters into uncontrollable monsters."
Wu You pointed to the papers on the stone table that had not been fully copied.
