"It's so serious. Hearing the introduction of the Second Elder, Shi Chen also understood how critical it was, "The Second Elder called me over, what can I do to help?"

"Patriarch, you are the one who was chosen by the mother worm and the young female worm, and you have already lived with the young female worm, so I want you to try it with your true qi to see if you can make the female worm's injuries recover a little. The second elder was also not sure if it would have an effect, the mother worm was injured, which had never happened in Miao Jiang for thousands of years.

"Can this work?" Shi Chen stretched out his hand, and a wisp of pure qi condensed in his palm.

"There's no other way, let's give it a try. The second elder said helplessly, so far, he can only let Shi Chen try to see if he can succeed, if not, then he can only watch the female worm die because of her body injuries.

"I tried my best. Shi Chen took a deep breath, took a few steps forward, and pressed his hand on the mother's abdomen.

As the true qi in the palm of his hand slowly transitioned into the body of the mother worm, Shi Chen closed his eyes, the two wings of the mother worm were closed, and the tentacles on her head were erected again.

"Has it worked?" Looking at the performance of the female worm, the second elder stood up excitedly.

"Wait, don't talk yet. Shi Chen frowned slightly, the true qi had just been instilled into the body of the female worm, and he didn't know what the situation was for the time being, if he was distracted because of the second elder's words, I am afraid that he would not even have the slightest chance.

Hearing Shi Chen's words, the second elder hurriedly closed his mouth and stood aside, but his eyes were still firmly fixed on the female worm.

With the slow input of true qi, the situation of the female worm has improved significantly, and it seems that the female worm also knows that Shi Chen is healing it, and her two wings keep flapping, as if she is thanking.

Inside the ancestral hall.

All the villagers who had come here craned their necks to look into the passage, wanting to see what the patriarch and the second elder were doing, but the passage was too long and dark, and despite the candles, they still couldn't see anything clearly, and they couldn't even hear any sound coming out.

"How's it going?"

The others at the entrance of the ancestral hall were also asking questions.

"It's too dark in the passage, there's no end in sight, the new patriarch and the second elder haven't said anything, can't they go down and see?"

"Then let's wait a little longer, we all know the strength of the patriarch, with him, the second elder will definitely be fine!" Although everyone was worried, they still kept comforting themselves.

Everyone gathered in the ancestral hall, unaware that in the past few hours, footsteps suddenly sounded in the passage.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" the second elder's voice sounded, and then he saw him helping the weak Shi Chen out of the passage, and before he could stand firmly, he reached out and pressed on the mechanism, and the passage closed with a click.

"Patriarch, what's wrong with you?!"

Seeing Shi Chen's weak appearance, the villagers hurriedly asked.

They didn't want to see the newly appointed patriarch encounter any danger, after all, they Miao Jiang had not had a patriarch for more than ten years because of the existence of Zhang Yuandong and other Yin cultivators.

"I'm fine, don't worry, let's go back. Shi Chen grinned, waved his hand and said.

"Patriarch, you are now the hope of our Miao Village!" Listening to Shi Chen's words, everyone relaxed a little.

"Okay, let's go back, the patriarch is fine, it's just that the consumption of true qi in his body is more serious, let him go back and rest for a while, it's fine, everyone shouldn't surround the ancestral hall, just do what you have to do!" After the second elder finished speaking to them, he helped Shi Chen and walked outside.

Under the gaze of many villagers, Shi Chen gradually left from their sight.

Back in the guest room, the second elder fetched a pot of hot water.

"I'm fine, Second Elder, you can go back too. Shi Chen gasped, treating the female worm almost exhausted all his true qi, and now Shi Chen felt that it was a little difficult to support his eyelids, and even his hands and feet were a little numb.

Shi Chen's condition was sensed by the larvae, and after crawling out of the cuffs, the larvae crawled along the clothes to Shi Chen's face, and gently rubbed Shi Chen's skin with her tentacles, as if sensing Shi Chen's current condition.

"How can this be done, you are the patriarch of Miaojiang and a benefactor, I have to take care of you here. The second elder shook his head, he knew that without Shi Chen's help, the female worm's injury would not recover, and she had even died now.

"Second Elder, I'll take care of it!" As soon as the Second Elder's voice fell, a voice sounded from the door.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Zhouzi pushed the door and walked in.

"Well, let me know what's going on. Seeing Wang Zhouzi, the second elder nodded in response, put down the kettle in his hand, and turned around and walked out of the room.

"How do you know?" Shi Chen looked at Wang Zhouzi curiously.

"Just kidding, I'm the Great Elder of Miao Jiang, and someone informed me when you came back. Wang Zhouzi raised his eyebrows, and looked at Shi Chen with a somewhat complicated gaze, no matter what happened in the village before, the first thing the villagers thought of was always her, but now it was Shi Chen who solved these problems.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, I'll recover after a day off. Shi Chen put away the larvae and smiled faintly.

"What about the female worm?" As the Great Elder, Wang Zhouzi has not forgotten his identity.

"It's not very optimistic, but the injury has healed, and I don't know how long I will live. Shi Chen shook his head and said, healing a bug has never happened, and Shi Chen doesn't dare to make a guarantee.

"You still have a larvae on your body, there should be no problem, it's all because you neglected to check the mother's injury at the time, if you had known at the time, it wouldn't be as serious as it is now. ”

Click!

Before Shi Chen could speak, the door of the room was pushed open suddenly, and then I saw a little girl running in in a panic, still carrying a box in her hand.

"Little Flower Girl?" Shi Chen asked as he sat up from the bed.

"Ah, Sister Zhouzi is also here?" Seeing Wang Zhouzi sitting next to her, Xiaohua suddenly stopped and asked a little embarrassed.

"Yes, I'll come over to see his situation, since Sister Zhouzi is here, then I'll go back first. Wang Xiaohua felt very embarrassed, she originally wanted to come here to see Shi Chen, who would have thought that she would meet outsiders.

"You're here to take care of him, and I'm going back to do my homework. Wang Zhouzi hurriedly got up.

"Ah, what kind of homework?" Wang Xiaohua looked at Shi Chen, who was sitting on the bed, and put the lunch box in his hand on the table.

"It's nothing, you take care of it here. Wang Zhouzi shook her head, how could she be embarrassed to say that a dignified Miao Village elder actually had to do the holiday homework arranged by the school every day.

Seeing Wang Zhouzi walk out of the courtyard, Wang Xiaohua breathed a sigh of relief and went to close the door of the room.
