Hearing my question, Old Man Jiang snorted coldly and said: "Hungry ghost insects have a very obvious characteristic, that is, they are afraid of complete closure, because they suffer from hunger all the time, and their temperament is generally very restless, and a completely closed environment will ignite their anxiety, and there are holes on them, which is why a special layer of wax is actually coated on the holes, which is a kind of insect wax, which is extremely difficult to collect, and the hungry ghost insects are very afraid of this, and they are coated with such a layer of wax. It prevents the hatched hungry ghost worms from inadvertently burrowing out of these small holes. (You can find this site)"

"Can you drill such a small hole?" I asked, surprised.

"Of course it can, seven orifices, it can go in, not to mention this small hole, its body can be stretched, and it is no problem to pull it into a hair! It's a pity that the worm wax is very special, you can't see any light, and it melts when you see the light, and the eggs of the hungry ghost are also, they can hatch only if they are strong in a dead environment, as long as they are a little angry, they will rush to hatch, and there is no barrier of the worm wax, so hey" The old man Jiang sighed.

I also roughly understand the cause and effect, no wonder Lao Du brought out this jar from the tomb, and Old Man Jiang would be so angry.

"Master, this worm is too powerful, isn't it? You can't shoot to death, you can cut constantly, you can stretch, and you're not even afraid of dog blood. "I can't think of anything else this hungry ghost worm can be afraid of, what should I do if I meet it again? Do you have to bite the tip of your tongue when you go back? Master forbade me to use the tiger's claws indiscriminately. Besides, the last time the blood on the tip of the tongue could spray on it, it was because of a coincidence.

"Not all insects are like this, the one in Guo Er's stomach is different, it is at least the king of that Gu room, it will be so strong, ordinary insects, if you try your best to get them, you can still make their bodies cut off their vitality."

"And Guo Er, they poured so much dog blood on that bug, and that bug was simply made up." Hui Jue said angrily.

"What's going on? Isn't dog blood to ward off evil spirits? "That's exactly what I couldn't figure out.

"Ward off evil spirits? Dog blood is something that is effective against some spells, illusions, and things that don't have a body, and things that have a body, what's the use of splashing dog blood? And the bug didn't use spells, hallucinations or anything, but the soul of the hungry ghost is strong, and the natural oppression is strong, and this dog's blood can also be broken? Know about zombies? Have you ever heard of zombies splashing blood? Old man Jiang said angrily.

Hui Jue also interjected at this time: "There are many kinds of hungry ghosts, and this one is a kind of blood that likes to eat blood, any blood and gas things are a great supplement for them, you said that this kind of hungry insect for I don't know how many years, meet so much dog blood to it, can it not be spiritual?" ”

Hey, I sighed silently in my heart, this is the difference between Jiang Yaomao'er and my master Huijue, two professionals, it's not that you can use it indiscriminately if you hear about it to ward off evil spirits, it turns out that sometimes, my good medicine, but it is his poison.

"Master, why do you say that the one in Guo Er's stomach is the worm king?"

"Let's talk about that Gu room first, if you look at those pipes, it's deliberate, that is, to let those lucky and tenacious insects crawl down the pipe to the Gu cup on the top! There is a special thing in those tubes, it is a liquid, how it is matched, I don't know, but the most important one, I am sure it is the blood of the person who raised the Gu, you know that in the sealed ceramics, wine can be stored for thousands of years, not to mention that special liquid, more than wine, it is resistant to storage, after the insect is born, attracted by the liquid in the tube, it will try its best to drill into the tube, the tube is connected to the jar, and there is only a very, very small hole in the middle, It's almost invisible to the naked eye, and the bug is stretchy, so you know it, right? Old man Jiang didn't know how to describe it for a while, so he turned his head and asked me directly.

Of course I can understand, but I just feel embarrassed for the hungry ghost worm, to drill such a small hole, I'm afraid it's thinner than a hair, right?

"Of course, no matter how small the hole is, the liquid in it will slowly drain up, and the liquid that flows into the jar will naturally be absorbed by the eggs, but the liquid will have no effect on hatching the eggs, just something similar to spices. When the liquid runs dry, the bugs that have not hatched, even if they are eliminated, because they have not hatched for so long, it can only mean that they are not strong enough. ”

"That's the reason, the insects that hatched have climbed to the top of the Gu Cup, the clay of the Gu Cup is different from the one below, the formula for imprisoning the insects is even stronger, and the insects don't have the courage to go out when they get there, and then they just wait for another insect to come up! Hungry ghosts have a characteristic, because they are hungry, they tend to lose their minds, brothers and sisters devour each other, and what can be left is the strongest, this is the survival law of hungry ghosts, hear now, do you understand? Huijue added.

"I understand, this person who designed the Gu room has put so much effort into cultivating the strongest hungry ghost worm in each Gu room." But what is the purpose of this?

I asked, only Hui Jue replied: "Not only does each Gu room cultivate a hungry ghost worm, he wants to cultivate the strongest hungry ghost worm in the entire tomb!" ”

That's it, but no one answers me what the purpose of this is.

But in any case, I was still very worried about one question: "Master, the two bugs that ran away?" ”

"I guess they've gotten into the bodies of animals, but there are so many animals in this country, human-raised, wild, how can you check? Because of the aura of someone, the essence blood of the said person is better than the essence blood of the beast, I don't know how many times, but he couldn't stand the worm's hunger, and when he saw the beast, he didn't hold back, so he ran in. Because one person can accommodate up to two hungry ghost worms. Old man Jiang said.

"Master, what should I do?" I'm in a bit of a hurry.

"What can I do? Pay close attention to what beasts in the countryside have died mysteriously, I am afraid that they will burrow into the bodies of wild animals, and it will be even more difficult to check, in case they grow into mature bodies, it will really be a disaster. Old man Jiang sighed.

"Yes, so your master and I don't dare to go to the Hungry Ghost Tomb now, because we have to sit here and wait for those two bugs to appear." Huijue was also worried.

"What is a mature body?" I suddenly remembered the worm in Guo Er's stomach, it was so different, it had grown 2 forks, like a hand, and even the tail was separated, and I felt a little frightened.

"Mature body? The mature body is no different from the hungry ghost in the hungry ghost road, you see what the relief looks like, what the mature body looks like, and then it should be eaten raw! Old man Jiang's expression didn't look like a joke at all.

Cannibalism? I suddenly felt some twitching in my stomach, it wasn't nausea, it was fear!

I remembered a very old legend, what a little ghost, what a ghost eats human flesh, no wonder my dad used to tell me, my grandfather, who has long since died, said that his grandfather once saw a hideous-looking little thing on a dead horse one night when he was on a mountain road, and he ran away when he saw it from a distance.

I couldn't help but tell the story my dad told me, and the old man Jiang said: "That's okay, it's a hungry ghost who eats carrion, it's much less harmful, and the hungry ghost who eats blood is a hundred times more fierce, that's how blessed your ancestors are, when he meets a hungry ghost who eats blood, he can't run away, where can there be you." ”

"What can a hungry ghost eat differently?" I think people eat, and hungry ghosts eat in different categories? It's so fresh.

Hui Jue glanced at me with great disdain, and the look in his eyes clearly mocked me for not having common sense: "Of course it's different, some of them eat incense, some eat filth, such as feces, thick phlegm, some eat carrion, etc., and the hunger torture of hungry ghosts is also different. ”

"But no matter how different it is, we can't escape one thing." Old man Jiang sighed, I don't know how many times he sighed tonight.

"What's the matter?" I asked.

"That is, the hungry ghost in the tomb is the most ferocious kind of hungry ghost!"
