Chapter 1040: Corpse beetle
The impoverished and barren Mobei is located between the Central Plains and the polar regions. Even the grasslands there are not so fertile, and the people do not have enough to eat and wear.
There, being able to eat a hot meal is a festive treat, and a person may not be able to eat a barbecue in his life!
That's why the Heran people like to eat raw meat, because the climate is not suitable for cooking, and even if a fire does rise, it can't even boil water!
Only princes and nobles, or people who have made great contributions to the whole of Mohuan, are allowed to tattoo the pattern of flames on their foreheads, but even if they are members of the royal family, there are only two flames at most, and there is only one person in the whole of Helan like this, and that is the Great Khan!
This time, the Herlan people raised troops to break through the barrier and invaded the Central Plains, which was the strength of the country! If they did not succeed, they would destroy the country! Therefore, the Great Khan personally led his troops, and the momentum was like a bamboo, and finally took Kyoto!
But I didn't want to come here and become a shadow guard of Yinhu! Now I only ended up in a different place, which really made everyone fall into the fog!
All the men in black have been killed, except for Tiger Eyebrows and Finch. Without exception, the whole body of these black-clothed people was covered with red spots, but as their heads were looked down, these spots had quickly turned black, and even the corpses began to stink!
Fortunately, only Tiger Mei and Bird Fox know each other, and the others don't know each other except for the Great Khan of Helan, who should be dressed by the guards in the palace, after all, only those people have the skills that do not belong to the Martial King!
The people hurried inside, looking for a way out. Originally, the guards of the Divine Palace still wanted to carry the corpse of the old man of the empty mountain for Xuanbao, but after inexplicably explaining the meaning of Nianzhi to him, Xuanbao still decided to carry it himself!
Among the cultivators in the Hongluan Continent, in addition to the two main streams of spiritual cultivation and martial arts cultivation, there is actually a way to become a god, that is, to cultivate literature and enter the holy world with literature!
Wen Tao's martial arts strategy has always been the most relied on by mortals to become gods, and this cultivation is even before the practice of martial arts! It's just that this path is far more difficult than the martial arts path that focuses on the tempering of muscles and bones, and the threshold for starting alone is higher than the martial arts path!
It can even be compared with the difficulty of spiritual cultivation! Because spiritual cultivation focuses on having spiritual affinity, while spiritual cultivation focuses on the talent of the mind, those children like prodigies are good blanks with the most holy texts, but there are very few who can really laugh to the end!
And the old man of the empty mountain is this rare one! He has already been sanctified by literature, because he already has the mind! This is the sign of the literati being sanctified!
The so-called Nian Zhi is equivalent to the Yuan Dan of a martial artist. Martial artists become gods, and Yuan Dan becomes a spirit pill. And when the literati enter the sanctification, the mind becomes the divine consciousness!
With this kind of mind, the old man of Kongshan has a spirit close to immortality, even if his physical body suffers a heavy blow, as long as the mind finds a host again, that person is a new generation of Wensheng!
This person must be an infant, because only the consciousness of the infant is blank and is most easily received by the mind!
Before the old man of the empty mountain died, he gave his mind to the inexplicable through the Xuanbao, which was equivalent to giving up the opportunity to be reincarnated, and the inexplicable was fulfilled in vain! This made the inexplicable divine sense suddenly much stronger, and he had the old man's lifelong learning, but he did not have the memory of the old man's own identity!
Based on this, it is only natural for Xuan Bao to carry this venerable old man on his back! Thinking about choosing the master, without any choice, even if he is a demented child, he can become a literary saint in the future!
If this child lacks education since he was a child and becomes a person like Yinhu, for the old man of Kongshan, he will not be willing to die even if he dies, so he simply gave up this opportunity and gave all the things he has learned in his life to inexplicable, this mind, even Xuanbao sighs to himself!
Originally thinking that the corpse hiding place was just to launch the corpse qi array, and there would not be too many corpses, but they didn't expect that there were nearly a thousand dead corpses here!
"These are palace people! Yinhu has slaughtered the entire palace! There are palace maids and guards!" "The inexplicable face is already full of resentment and fear, this Yinhu is really ruthless, the Heran people haven't done it yet, he himself has slaughtered the people around him first!
The further I went, the more terrifying I became, even more terrifying than in the Netherworld! There were fewer inverted stalactites here, and some of them were on the top of a high cave with the scale of an upside-down sword, not as big as reaching the ground!
There were a lot of chains hanging from it, and there were many black corpses hanging from them, and they were all dressed in black clothes. There were also chains hanging down, but they were empty. Inexplicably, he said to Xuanbao: "Tiger eyebrows and finches, they should have come down from above!"
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the pair of iron hooks hanging on it, thinking that they were using a pair of hooks to hook people's shoulder collarbones, and when they heard Yinhu's order, they climbed the iron chain with both hands to remove the hooks.
Fortunately, these people no longer have the perception of pain, otherwise they really don't know how to endure such pain!
There were about thirty or forty corpses left on it. In fact, it doesn't have to be a corpse, because although they all reveal dead and corpse energy, judging from the battle just now, they shouldn't be considered dead!
Their bodies kept dripping with water, and some black liquid merged into a stream under the feet of everyone, which flowed into the ditch next to them.
The gutter was full of black liquid, emitting a strong stench that was disgusting. Inexplicably, he covered his nose and said to Xuanbao: "We have to let Phantom Ji or Sister Ximei come out, otherwise we won't be able to get by!"
The arrangement here was completed by the old man of the empty mountain under the persecution of Yinhu, and without the phantom hime, there would be unpredictable dangers here.
Xuan Bao still listened to her words and asked Phantom Ji and Ximei, who had almost recovered from her injuries, to come out. As soon as Phantom Ji smelled the smell here, she frowned, looked at the ditch next to her, and said to everyone, "This is corpse oil!"
Ximei smiled bitterly and said: "Corpse oil is not poison, I can't solve it!" But I have done a lot of antidote to corpse poison in the original realm just now, and I will also share some with you, which can help everyone resist the corpse qi here!"
Everyone took the green pills handed over by Ximei, and according to the method she taught, some of them were chewed and swallowed raw, and a small part was kneaded into a small ball, and stuffed into the nostrils.
There should be a little mint leaf mixed with it, so the smell is not as bad as just now! Ximei was thinking about returning to the original realm, and there were still two people who had been poisoned by the corpse waiting for her to be treated, but she suddenly stopped and said to everyone: "Don't go, now the poisonous gas is coming!"
The crowd stopped and turned their heads to look around. There was nothing else here but the hanging corpses. Where does the poison come from?
Phantom Ji frowned tightly and shouted to Xuanbao: "Xianggong, inside the oil ditch, set fire!" With her shout, Xuanbao hit the spiritual fire into the ditch full of corpse oil next to her, and the raging fire quickly burned!
There was a raging flame in the oil ditch, and Xi Mei took a long breath and said, "Fortunately, I just gave everyone the anti-corpse poison medicine! But you should also cover your face and try to let those black smoke touch your skin as little as possible!"
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly took out a cloth towel to cover their faces and covered their mouths and noses, revealing only their eyes. Keep your eyes on the fire in the oil ditch!
The oil ditch was originally very shallow, as if there was something strange in it, so the corpse oil inside overflowed, and the fire had burned to the road, blocking everyone.
Xuanbao had already sensed that something was coming, but he didn't know what it was, and when he turned his head to look at Phantom Ji, he looked like he was facing a great enemy, and he didn't dare to be careless, and said to Inexplicable: "You and Ximei go back to the original realm first!"
Unexpectedly, he and Ximei shouted at the same time: "No!" and then shouted to Ximei inexplicably: "Sister Ximei, quickly put the things that drive away poisonous insects according to the position I told you!"
Ximei immediately took out a very large sachet from her body, opened her mouth, pinched a handful of the medicinal powder inside, walked to the inexplicable side, and then sprinkled the medicinal powder little by little in front of Xuanbao according to the inexplicable instructions.
At first, Xuanbao thought that it would save trouble by sprinkling medicine powder around everyone, but as soon as he saw the oil ditch next to him, he dispelled this idea, and the corpse oil in the oil ditch kept splashing out, and he was about to come here, even if there was medicine sprinkled under his feet, it would be washed away by the corpse oil!
However, according to the inexplicable arrangement, something surprising to everyone happened! The corpse oil in front of it had already formed a lot of waves, surging over wave after wave, but it was avoided in the places where the medicine was sprinkled, and even the spiritual fire did not burn over, just like setting up an enchantment!
Phantom Ji said excitedly: "Sister Inexplicable, Sister Ximei, you are so powerful!" Ximei shook her head and said: "It's Inexplicable Niangniang, I'm just listening to her orders!"
Shaking his head inexplicably, he said, "It's just a small phantom array, it can't last long, we have to make these corpse oils disappear as soon as possible!"
Xuan Bao looked at the surrounding terrain and said to the Jingu Wei behind him, "Go to the back and dig up the ridges!"
"Emperor Zun wants to burn this place with a fire?" Tu Die'er immediately understood what Xuanbao meant, and hurriedly said to him: "If you want to drain and burn here, I have a way!"
These things are the skills of the Tutian clan, Xuanbao nodded and said to her: "Since this is the Little Demon Palace, you can't let it continue to exist, and you don't have time to check what harmful things are here, so you can just burn this place down with a fire!"
"Okay! I'll do it! you don't need it, me and the little slingshot are enough!" Tu Die'er nodded, and turned away with the little slingshot!
"Look, what is that?" The earth kite stood behind Xuanbao, and suddenly pointed to the front and shouted!
The coals were moving, scurrying around in the burning corpse oil, but they were certainly not corpse oil, they were clearly insects!
Phantom Ji's face turned a little pale, and she shouted at everyone, "Be careful, it's a corpse beetle! Don't let them get into the flesh, otherwise it will be difficult to get out!"
The so-called corpse beetle is a group of silkworm-like things, the whole body is black, it looks fat, the head is big, the head is on both sides, and there are antennae and teeth on both sides!
It looks clumsy and round, but it gets up very quickly, and it's dense, I don't know how many of them have come!
