Chapter 995: Hunting Fire Flies for Immortality?

The holy water pool suddenly boiled, which immediately attracted Tong Yan's attention, but when he looked closely, he was suddenly shocked on the spot.

It was incredible, the whole pool of holy water was like a cauldron of boiling water, not only steaming, but also gurgling inside. In addition, in the boiling water, he saw a strange red creature.

This thing is about half a meter long, bright red all over, and swims extremely fast in the pool water, even if Tong Yan has good eyesight, but can only see a rough idea. In appearance, this strange creature resembles a snake, but there are also animals like eels or dragons. Able to swim freely in boiling water without the slightest discomfort, this thing is certainly not an ordinary creature, maybe some kind of spirit or strange beast.

Tong Yan stared at it for a while, and decided to fish it out to see what was going on. But just as he was about to use his ability to retrieve things from the air, he didn't expect that the boiling pool water would instantly return to calm, and the little thing would disappear inexplicably.

"Why did it suddenly disappear? Did you burrow into a spring? ”

Thinking so, he searched the pool of holy water carefully, until he was sure that the little red thing was really gone, and he withdrew his gaze from the pool.

As the saying goes, the world is so big that there are no surprises. Creatures that can live in boiling water must exist, but how can they really know all of them?

Instead of wasting your energy on this sacred pool, you should return to the Taoist temple and see if you can find any clues about the murder of the ghost.

Thinking of this, he decided to leave right now, as for the red liquid on the ground, maybe it was really left by some beast, he really couldn't take it seriously.

But at this moment, the blind man Chen, who was hiding in the talisman, suddenly spoke.

"Brother Tong Yan, didn't you ask me what the red liquid on the ground is? I thought about it for a while, and now I've finally figured it out! ”

Hearing this, Tong Yan hurriedly asked, "What is it?" ”

"Fire Blood!"

"Fire? Are you talking about the ancient books? ”

Blind Chen replied: "Yes, it's Yu, and it's Huoyu!" It was a fire fly swimming in the pool just now, but it should be a young fire fly. But I don't understand why anyone would hunt fireflies. Could it be that there is another use? ”

Tong Yan frowned slightly and said, "Brother Chen, how are you sure that someone is hunting?" ”

Blind Chen opened his mouth and replied: "Whether it is a fire fly or a water fly, the blood contained in the body is extremely rare, and the blood of such a large pool of fire flies on the ground is either a giant fire fly or hundreds of juvenile fire flies just now. No matter which one it is, it will never be the fire fly jumping out and flowing down on its own, because as long as the beast is out of the water, it will be difficult to survive, except for the kind that is about to cultivate into a dragon. And there was another point, there was only blood on the ground, and there was no corpse of the fire flyer. So I analyzed that someone hunted the fire fly here, and then took the fire fly's corpse away. ”

Tong Yan still knows a little about this strange beast. Legend has it that the dragon is a type of dragon, but it is not a real dragon, at best it is a strange beast a little more advanced than the snake. There is a saying, "Five hundred years into Jiao, Jiao into a dragon for a thousand years, five hundred years for a dragon to be a horned dragon, a thousand years for a dragon." ”

The main reason why this kind of beast is obviously higher than the snake is that they are easier to cultivate into Jiao, to put it simply, it is a good foundation, good blood, and it is extremely close to the existence of the dragon, which can also be called a relative of the dragon family.

Another point is that it is also a dragon, and the strength of the dragon cultivated by the dragon will be much higher than that of an ordinary dragon, and it even has the strong strength to fight with the real dragon. It is precisely because of the above reasons that the Yu is treated as a foreign beast.

But Tong Yan is still a little confused, if it is really as Chen Blind said, someone hunted the fire flies in this spring, then what is the purpose of doing this?

"Brother Chen, you said that the person who hunted the fire fly took away the body of the fire fly. What's so amazing about this fire fly's corpse? Can it be used in medicine or can it be refined? ”

Hearing this, Blind Chen patiently replied: "I have also seen some records about Yu in an ancient book, which mentions what the corpse of Yu can do, but whether it is true or not, I can't determine, I might as well tell you." You've probably heard the rumors of a living corpse turning into a dragon, right? When a person is dying, put the body in the dragon's den, inhale the dragon qi before dying, and the corpse can slowly turn into a dragon body with the dragon qi. Just wait for a coincidence, you can fly into Jackie Chan, and from then on, you can travel for nine days, like a fairy, happy and happy. There are also people who hold dragon scales or dragon horns before they die, so as to achieve the purpose of turning into a dragon. But in fact, the possibility of turning a corpse into a dragon is very slim. Throughout the ages, how many people have been able to turn corpses into dragons? Since it was too difficult to turn a corpse into a dragon, there were people from the side who found another way to come up with a way to turn a corpse. Although Jiao is not as powerful as the dragon, it can be regarded as close to the existence of a divine beast, Jiao is still expected to cultivate into a true dragon through cultivation, and the most important thing is that the corpse is much easier than the corpse to turn into a dragon, and the success rate is much higher. Therefore, the corpse transformation has gradually become a spiritual technique that many dignitaries and people from the sidelines flock to. ”

Hearing this, Tong Yan immediately asked, "You mean, the corpse of the fire dragon can be used to perform this corpse transformation technique?" But compared with the corpse of the fire dragon and the corpse of the dragon, there is still a big difference, right? ”

Chen Blind laughed and said, "Brother Tongyan, you only know one and don't know the other. Although the dragon is not as good as the dragon, the corpse of the dragon is not weaker than the dragon's body, and it is even stronger than the dragon in absorbing the qi of the dragon vein. Therefore, as long as the corpse is connected to the human corpse, it is not difficult for the corpse to turn into a corpse. ”

Listening to Chen's explanation, I'm afraid this is the case.

Tong Yan thought to himself for a while, then had a flash of inspiration, and immediately asked, "Brother Chen, who do you say is this person who hunts the fire dragon?" No matter how bad the fire is, it's also a strange beast, right? Being able to easily extinguish the fire flies is probably not an ordinary person. Have you ever wondered if the person who killed the demon was the same person who hunted the fire? ”

Blind Chen smiled bitterly and said, "How can there be such a coincidence in the world, Brother Tong Yan, don't comfort me." ”

Tong Yan dragged his chin and thought for a while, and then said, "Brother Chen, this is not a coincidence, but a reasonable suspicion. If you think about it, there are fire flies in this holy pool, and I'm afraid not many people know about it, right? And how did the firefly hunter know? He must have stumbled upon it here, and he may have stepped on it a little before he did it last night. Another point, the corpse body into a dragon or the corpse into a dragon belongs to the category of corpse alchemy, right? And anyone who is proficient in the art of alchemy often makes himself a human being. In this way, he will definitely have to be proficient in the art of soul gathering, and even the art of soul refining. At the end of his life, his soul fell into the netherworld. In order to live forever, not to enter the underworld is to be the enemy of the underworld. Think about it again, if such a wicked person who is an enemy of the underworld collides with the onicha, do you think the onicha will turn a blind eye? If you do, who will have a better chance of winning? ”

When Blind Chen heard this, he immediately exclaimed, "You mean, such a wicked person who refuses to enter the Netherworld has killed the ghost who happened to come to take me to the underworld. So, those two ghosts ended up scattered? ”

Tong Yan nodded in response: "That's right, this is exactly my speculation. But whether this is the case, the only way to find the wicked man who hunted the fire fly is to find it first. It may not be long before the truth is revealed! ”
