Chapter 40: The Black Worm

Three days passed in a blink of an eye in the middle of the practice.

Early this morning, there was a gentle knock on the door of Zhang Xiaofeng's room.

The two masters of the secret realm came to see Zhang Xiaofeng in person, but from the eyes of the two, they didn't seem to realize that there was anything wrong with this, as if it was just a sparse and ordinary trivial matter.

For Zhang Xiaofeng, the two were indeed afraid, but at the same time, Zhang Xiaofeng took the initiative to give up resources that were obviously very important to the two, and did not take this opportunity to extort a sum of money, which also made the two of them feel good.

"Come in and say. Zhang Xiaofeng's eyes swept over the boss at the door who was looking at him with his neck stretched, and reluctantly invited the two into the house.

The two of them obviously noticed the not very polite boss just now, but since Zhang Xiaofeng didn't say anything, the two naturally wouldn't have much to do.

"We've searched almost all of the area we're in, and we've found some whereabouts, but people, presumably, have already left here. The two said straight to the point.

Zhang Xiaofeng took the letter and map they handed over.

The letter was put aside, and Zhang Xiaofeng's eyes were on the map.

I saw that it had been painted with ochre and small red circles.

"These enclosed places are the places where the little girl used to be. ”

One of the masters of the secret realm said to Zhang Xiaofeng, and the other stretched out his hand and pointed at the map.

"After the little girl left the entrance of the drizzle realm, she hurried towards the secret realm where I was, but there seemed to be some accident on the way, and the little girl suddenly turned back and returned to the drizzle realm again, and stayed in this inn for a month, and then no one saw her again. ”

"We went to the land lord here, and he said that the little girl left alone in the middle of the night, and after leaving the drizzle realm, she did not enter either of the two secret realms according to the previous route, but continued to walk out towards the outside world. ”

He glanced at Zhang Xiaofeng, stretched out his hand and dotted on the map.

"The two of us guessed that his final destination might be here. ”

The Lord of the Realm's finger landed on a boundary on the map.

"Beiju Luzhou, this is the closest continent with a teleportation circle to her mouth, if the little girl is determined to go to the Great Spirit Realm, she will definitely go here. ”

Zhang Xiaofeng sighed when he heard this.

The so-called Great Spirit Realm is really those realms under the nose of Heavenly Court, these realms are strictly restricted and governed by Heavenly Court, all families, sects, secret realms, cave mansions, and suppression are all registered by Heavenly Court, where is the real cultivation world, which can be called a strong cloud, and this kind of place where Zhang Xiaofeng is at the moment, that is, it can be slightly stronger than the barbarian land, it is called the small spiritual realm, which is probably the three-regardless zone, after all, this place is too remote, and the spiritual energy is barren, and a strong person cannot be born in almost a few hundred years, and Heavenly Court will also let it grow savagely, and it is too lazy to care。

"These letters are secret letters sent back by the scouts of our secret realm, and most of them are of little value, but this one, you must take a look. ”

Zhang Xiaofeng took it.

When I opened the letterhead, the handwriting inside was a little sloppy, apparently written in a hurry.

"Cuijiazhuang's thirteen tribes all died overnight, and the subordinates were responsible for a thorough investigation At this time, when they first entered Zhuangzi, they only felt demonic, and preliminarily concluded that it was a fourth-order demon. ”

The letter is a short sentence, and there is nothing to see in the name.

The Lord of the Secret Realm handed one again.

Zhang Xiaofeng then took it apart and looked at it.

"Two days before the incident, there was a girl in the village, not very old, there were injuries on the body, and she stayed overnight again, after the incident, the girl disappeared, and the body was not found when the body was counted. ”

Putting down the letter, Zhang Xiaofeng's eyes looked towards the two.

The two shook their heads.

"No, this is the last one. ”

"Can I meet this scout. ”

"I'm afraid it won't work. ”

Zhang Xiaofeng looked at the two masters of the secret realm suspiciously.

"He's dead. ”

"This letter was sent a few months ago, when the matter was quite troublesome, and the Drizzle Sect sent a disciple to help investigate thoroughly, so we ignored the matter again, and this scout died after sending the second secret letter. ”

Zhang Xiaofeng frowned, and a haze instantly rose in his heart.

Is it Little Liu?

Is there an injury on the body? Who did you meet? The deceased in Zhuangzi definitely couldn't have been done by Xiao Liu, just saying that the demonic spirit has nothing to do with Xiao Liu, because she has just transformed into a shape, and there is no difference between her and ordinary people at the moment, where did the demonic spirit come from?

Fourth-order demon.

How could a fourth-order demon appear here?

These chaotic and chaotic thoughts flashed through Zhang Xiaofeng's mind, but the words of the Lord of the Secret Realm on the side caught Zhang Xiaofeng's attention.

"Anyway, it's a little strange that the scout died. ”

"There was not the slightest scar on his body, and his soul did not look like it had been attacked, but before he died, it was as if he had seen something terrifying, and his eyes were so wide that even I could not find out the true cause of his death, so I had to bury him immediately. ”

"Can you go and see it?"

The Lord of the Secret Realm did not hesitate, and directly nodded in agreement.

He really wanted to find out the real cause of the scout's death, and now that Zhang Xiaofeng was here, maybe he could finally figure out what he had been wondering about for so long.

A few people didn't waste any more time.

The Lord of the Secret Realm hastily put away the letters and maps on the table, threw them into the storage artifact, and the three of them left through the window, stepping on a gust of wind, and instantly became a white shadow, rushed out of the sky, and flew in the direction of the secret realm.

The speed of the three of them was not slow, and in less than two pillars of incense, the Lord of the Secret Realm took Zhang Xiaofeng to the cemetery of the Liuyun Secret Realm.

The large and small dirt bags here are buried under the most loyal subordinates of the Lord of the Secret Realm.

Most of them are orphans, who have been collected and specially cultivated to do things for the Lord of the Secret Realm, and some of them can die well, but they are also lonely all their lives, and they are extremely pitiful.

The Lord of the Secret Realm took Zhang Xiaofeng and walked to a dirt bag.

stared at the crude tomb in front of him for a moment, and then used his mana to instantly move the soil on the dirt bag aside.

The spells on the master of the secret realm flowed, and after a while, Zhang Xiaofeng vaguely saw a white skeleton.

He frowned.

It's only been a few months, and besides, it's an immortal cultivator, how could it be that the corpse is completely decomposed so quickly?

When the Lord of the Secret Realm saw this scene, he was obviously a little surprised.

Zhang Xiaofeng stepped forward, wrapped his hands in a spell, and then walked directly to him, carrying aside the clod of soil that was pressing the head of the skeleton.

He froze.

I saw a small black insect with a metallic luster under the sun lying quietly in the skull of the corpse, the size of the insect is not large, but the whole body is jet black, just looking at it, it will give people a feeling of chill down the spine.

The two masters of the secret realm walked over at the same time, and their eyes were also fixed on the black worm.

"How did all the villagers in Zhuangzi die?"

"All of them were wiped on their necks. The Lord of the Secret Realm replied.

"Where is the body?"

The Lord of the Secret Realm seemed to realize that things were not as simple as he imagined, and immediately turned around, preparing to take Zhang Xiaofeng to the place where the corpses of the villagers were parked.

Zhang Xiaofeng used a spell to grab the black worm in the skull, and he could feel a vitality of vitality.

It's still alive.

Zhang Xiaofeng used a spell to cut off the head of the insect entirely, and the body was stored in the Qiankun bag.

Stepping up the pit, the three of them hit the road again and walked towards the burial place of the corpses of the villagers in Zhuangzi.

The tragedy of Zhuangzi really alarmed all the supplements and villages in the surrounding ten miles, because it was so tragic.

In the end, it was the Drizzle Sect that came forward to appease, and the people's hearts were much more stable.

They should be buried in a secluded place on the mountain behind Zhuangzi, and the Lord of the Secret Realm remembers clearly that this matter was a big trouble at that time, how the Drizzle Sect dealt with it, and every day there were scouts in charge of this matter to report to him.

Zhuangzi was in the Fuqi Realm alongside the Drizzle Realm, and the three of them were not slow, and soon they arrived at the Zhuangzi in the mouth of the Lord of the Secret Realm.

Standing here, the three of them could clearly feel a burst of demonic energy.

All three of them were a little surprised in their hearts.

A few months have passed, and although the demonic aura has faded a lot, it can still exist, which really means that this demon is not extraordinary.

It's just that why did such a powerful demon suddenly appear here? and even did such a cruel thing, which is indeed a rare thing that has never happened before.

The Lord of the Secret Realm shook his fingers, and after a moment, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared behind him, dressed in ordinary clothes, no different from the local villagers.

"The subordinates reprimanded the second and met the adults. ”

"Take us to the place where Zhuangzi is buried. The Lord of the Secret Realm said to the second of the Secret Realm.

He didn't waste time, he hugged his fists and said yes, then turned around and walked towards the mountain not far away.

In order to bury people, a large part of the trees here have been cut down, and at this moment the mountain is bare, the sky is a little dark, and it is indeed a bit terrible.

The Lord of the Secret Realm casually found the closest tomb to him, and used his own magic to open the tomb again.

The three of them looked into the tomb.

Sure enough, it's still a skeleton.

Zhang Xiaofeng once again found a black insect in the skull of the skeleton and quietly attached it to the skull.

"What the hell is this?"

"Is the real cause of death here because of this big bug?"

The Lord of the Secret Realm frowned and asked, after all, he had never heard of such a bizarre thing when he was so old.

Zhang Xiaofeng squinted his eyes, with a somewhat worried look in his eyes.

Reaching out and touching the jade pendant around his neck.

An old man suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

It is the patriarch of the spirit family.

As soon as the old man appeared, he suddenly knelt down towards Zhang Xiaofeng......
