The vast majority of the golden-veined war bees have no mind of their own, and are ordered by the Lord and the Crimson Highness, which is the whole meaning of their existence.

In their simple and mechanical thinking, the Lord's directive is to set a predetermined direction for them to go forward, and even the slightest deviation is not allowed, which is contrary to the meaning of their existence.

The task of this bee colony is to continue to expand the scope of inspection on the basis of the previous stage, strangle the weak spirits, and find and report the powerful spirits.

Therefore, the golden-veined war bee found these corrupt walking corpses, determined that they belonged to weak alien creatures, and directly strangled and devoured them, and then continued to start the next stage of patrol.

As for the injured male human, including his dying horse, it wasn't within their mission scope, so it couldn't be noticed at all.

"Wait, wait!"

Seeing that the swarm was about to leave, the knight immediately shouted with all his strength, "I have 100,000 urgent information to pass back!"

The swarm was indifferent to this, and had risen to a height of ten feet.

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and shouted again, "This is the task that King Chitose of Zhennan personally gave me, and I must deliver the secret letter to King Chitose of Zhennan!"

Airplanes!

The swarm instantly froze in mid-air.

Moments later, a warbee the size of a baby's fist descended from the sky and hovered in front of the knight's eyes.

"You should feel lucky because it's me who meets you...... He has been given a precious and rare wisdom by His Royal Highness the County Lord, so that he can understand the meaning of your words and make your own choices, so that you can get the opportunity to complete the Lord's mission. ”

It looked at the knight with a pair of compound eyes, and continued in a mechanical tone, "But you must know that if you are falsely reporting military information and have not been tasked by the lord, then in the near future, they and I will become food for His Highness the county lord for disobeying the order, and you will also be punished more terrible than death...... So, are you sure that you are indeed under the command of the Lord?"

The knight gritted his teeth and said, "You believe me, I am a person from Jin Jiewei, and I am indeed on the orders of King Chitose of Zhennan to explore the Dark Forest, and I have an urgent military situation that needs to be reported to the king!"

The golden-veined war bee stopped talking, shook its wings, and made a sharp sound, and the swarm in mid-air quickly landed, lifted the knight's body, and flew in the direction of the Great Wei capital city at a much faster speed than just now.

................................................

"Part of Nakaguri Province is blocked by a large area of inky forest cover, and it is temporarily named the Dark Forest, and several counties have disappeared, and there are many dangers in the dense forest, and all kinds of strange rumors are frequent......"

Gu Juan finished reading the secret letter stained red with blood from beginning to end, closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

The Dark Forest is the name given to the general of Kyoying who wrote this letter, and according to what he has seen, heard, and speculated, it seems that this huge dense forest, which almost cut off the waist of Nakaguri Mansion, has been expanding outward, and the danger inside is also increasing day by day, and if this trend continues, it is unknown how far it will develop in the future.

After tea time, he opened his eyes from his thoughts and patted the blood book on the table, "Go and call me the autumn water and thorns." ”

The ugly dog returned to the room with Qiushui and another middle-aged man who looked like an elegant scribe.

The middle-aged man is a thorn, the advent monk who was captured by Gu Ju not long ago is still the same relationship as the female monk who was killed by him and the red cloth, and he is considered to be a junior disciple of the same generation.

It's just that Thorn's luck is better, just when Gu Juan is in a good mood, and his eyesight is excellent and he can bend and stretch, so he took a few juniors to successfully surrender to Cheng and turned into a caretaker in the Zhennan Palace.

Gu Juan handed the secret letter to the two of them, and gave them a while to read the letter before asking, "You monks who came here from the outer lands, have you ever seen the situation described in this letter before?"

Qiushui frowned, shook his head after thinking for a moment, and said, "Back to the Lord, my subordinates have heard of similar situations where the wood is overly prosperous and breeds strange spirits, but whether it can correspond to what is happening in Zhongli Mansion now, we still need to observe and perceive it closely before we dare to make further judgments." ”

Thorn was silent for a longer time, and it wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that he said slowly, "Before the genus descended, I was led by the deputy sect master to go down to the sect's treasury, and I specifically looked for words about the changes in heaven and earth and the revival of the spirit yuan to read, but I remember that there is a record that is related to the current situation. ”

"Oh, what does that record say?" Gu Juan raised his hand, let the two of them sit down on the chairs, and asked the big butler of the ugly dog to spread out the pages of the book, ready to take notes.

Thorn said while recalling, "That's what it says in that ancient book, in the process of heaven and earth, if the change of the spiritual energy of a certain region increases too quickly, it will naturally cause all kinds of creatures to advance beyond common sense, so that an extremely tragic hunting and killing will break out in a short period of time, and it may eventually give birth to a great demon to descend into the world, so my subordinates suspect that in the dark forest of Zhongli Mansion, there may be a certain great demon who wins from killing and completes the transformation by devouring other lives." ”

Gu Juan took a sip of tea, and after listening to it, he suddenly thought of what he had experienced in Wangbei City.

Now the "Seven Samurai" under his command are the "transcendent beings" who finally survived after the golden light.

If you compare it carefully, there are many similarities and understandings with what Thorns said.

Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind.

Strictly speaking, after Wangbei City was affected by the combined effect of golden light and gray mist and blood mist, the changing trend of various creatures inside and outside the city was actually not finished.

Because of his move, he forcibly disrupted and truncated it from the middle, which can be regarded as terminating the process of change in advance.

If......

If he hadn't made a move at the time.

Gu Juan closed his eyes and began to make a rough deduction of this guess in his mind.

It is really possible that the result will be a terrifying demon coming out of the sea of corpses and blood after bloody killing and mutual hunting and devouring.

So, whether the changes that have occurred in the current Zhongli Mansion are the same as the situation described by Thorns, and whether there is a big demon hidden in that dark forest that has won from killing and devouring, maybe it is really only possible to reach a conclusion by exploring deeply.

But he is too busy now, whether it is his own cultivation, or his comprehension and discussion of the changes in heaven and earth with Hongyi, as well as the formation of the flying sword army, the study of the production of Taoist soldiers, and many other complicated trivial matters......

It has taken up almost all of his time, and even his favorite two things of eating, drinking and sleeping have been squeezed and compressed to the point that he can no longer squeeze it, and if he wants to spare a large chunk of time, he must suspend all the above plans, which will undoubtedly cause a considerable degree of loss and waste.

But it is not possible to figure out the incident in the dark forest of Zhongli Province, after all, it is too close to the land of Gyeonggi, if you leave it alone, maybe one morning you will wake up and find that the outside is already a green color, forcing people to spend several times or even dozens of times the price before to deal with it.
