Chapter 138: Demonic Disease
Zhu Xuanchen looked at the frightened little girl and smiled slightly and said: "Don't be afraid, these two are also cultivators who protect you with me, don't look at them as fierce, in fact, they are very kind, martial arts friends, please introduce yourself." ”
"I'm a martial artist. "I'm Wuji. The Wu brothers briefly introduced themselves one after another.
"You're not going to just walk over like this, are you? It's urgent, we don't have flying spirit weapons, and the three of us can't take so many of you." Zhu Xuanchen looked at the group of doctors who were empty-handed, and asked with some doubts.
"We each have three foals, and we're grazing in the woods, and they're big enough for us to get to the Five Rivers Country without stopping, so don't worry about it. Li Lingyu stretched out her hand and pointed to a small forest in the distance and said.
Spirit horses are a kind of horse, but they are a little different from ordinary horses, except that there is not much difference in appearance, spirit horses are fed and cultivated by people with spirit grass, each of them has a speed of traveling thousands of miles a day and eight hundred at night, and they can run without eating or drinking for up to three consecutive days, of course, spirit horses are not everywhere, only the city of chaos will cultivate some spirit horses for some mortals in the city to use, and other sect forces are generally rarely seen.
"Oh, that's good, let's go, on the way you tell me what the current situation is, I want to learn more about it, so that I can accurately estimate how dangerous these infected creatures are, and we can better protect you." Zhu Xuanchen said slowly.
"Yes, Niu Zhenren, according to the people who came from the Five Rivers Country for help, this infectious disease had actually been heard of as early as a year or two ago, but at that time they didn't care very much, they thought it was just a rumor, but just three months ago, dozens of infected people suddenly appeared in the west of the Five Rivers Country, as well as all kinds of countless mutated animals, it only took half a month, this infectious disease has spread to most of the Five Rivers Country, the speed of transmission is extremely terrifying, even their government sent troops several times to clear these completely irrational infected people, the result is that the whole army was wiped out, not only failed to clear itInstead, the soldiers sent were infected, and because the disease was so terrifying, the locals called it the Demon Disease. Li Lingyu had a very distressed expression on her face, and said to Zhu Xuanchen as she walked.
"How could this demonic disease come so ferociously?! According to what you said, then this disease should have spread from the direction of the Qingfeng faction at the earliest, and even if the Qingfeng faction could not stop the spread of this demonic disease, it would have issued a notice to various places very early, and the Qingfeng faction would not have been so negligent! By the way, have you ever had this disease before? Have any infected people been cured? Is there a difference between the infected people and ordinary people? What do we rely on to identify these infected people or animals?" Zhu Xuanchen was surprised and asked several questions.
Li Lingyu shook her head and said, " I don't know very well why the Qingfeng faction didn't issue a notice, this kind of demonic disease is the first time it has appeared, even if it is not recorded in the earliest medical canon of our doctors, these infected people will become extremely violent when they see people or animals, ordinary people can't control them at all, let alone cure, when they are infected by the demonic disease, they will become infected in just a few seconds, the characteristics of these infected people or animals are that the blood vessels of the whole body will protrude, the skin will be blood-red, the eyes will be bloodshot, and a number of densely shaped protruding blood vessels will grow on the face and head, and the strength and speed of the body will be greatly improvedAnd if you want to completely destroy the infected, you can only attack their heads, cut them off or crush them, otherwise even if you cut off the hands and feet of the infected, they will still live until the blood runs dry, and then they will stop completely, Niu Zhenren, that's all we know at present. ”
Zhu Xuanchen nodded, and soon they found eighteen spirit horses eating special spirit grass in the grove, six of which had some wooden boxes on their bodies, which were some medicine supplies for the doctors, and the six doctors turned over the horses, each riding one and leading two horses, and then quickly whipped their horses to the west of the Five Rivers Country, and rushed to the dust, while Zhu Xuanchen and the Wu brothers flew above them to protect and observe.
Five days later, Zhu Xuanchen and his party still have a five-day trip from the Five Rivers Country, since they set off from the Chaos City, they are rushing to the Five Rivers Country all the time, the spread of the demon disease is too fast, so that they dare not stop for a minute and a half, it is now noon, three people suddenly rushed out of the towering weeds on the side of the road in front of the group, these three people are a man, a woman and a little girl, the man is holding a little girl who is about four years old, they look flustered, Fear, while running and looking back from time to time, at this time which woman ran off one of her shoes, but still did not stop, and continued to run wildly.
Li Lingyu and the others soon saw this family of three, the six of them immediately tightened the reins on the spirit horse, stopped the galloping horses' hooves, Li Lingyu asked with concern: "What happened to the uncle in front, why are you so panicked?"
As a result, after the man glanced at her, he rushed over to snatch their spirit horse, and cried while pulling Li Lingyu's legs: "Have pity on our family, let us ride two horses and run for our lives! The devil is coming! Please save us!"
Seeing that Li Lingyu was about to be pulled off the spirit horse, Zhu Xuanchen slowly descended from the air, first held Li Lingyu's crumbling body, and then gently bounced the man away with a dark force, and then said: "If you have something to say slowly, what kind of demon is there?"
As soon as the man saw Zhu Xuanchen, he immediately put down the little girl in his arms, pulled the woman and pressed the little girl's head, bowed to Zhu Xuanchen, and pleaded: "Please let the immortals save us! My daughter is still young, she can't die! The devil is chasing us behind!"
As soon as the man's voice fell, he heard a sound of swaying grass in the grass they rushed out, and the grass suddenly rushed out of ten people whose faces were bursting blood vessels, including a few mice and a few cats and dogs, these animals were also full of protruding blood vessels, their eyes were bloodshot, and their expressions were vicious, when they saw Zhu Xuanchen's group of people, the blood vessels on their faces seemed to become more and redder, and after a collective howl, they rushed to Zhu Xuanchen's side very quickly, in order to speed faster, the infected people all ran with their hands, and their fingers were grinding to see the bones inside, but these people didn't feel the pain at allIt doesn't look like a crazy run like once or twice.
