Chapter 36: Destruction

Three watches in the middle of the night

Fang Cheng rushed to the Su Mansion in the south of the city, and according to Wang Lingyu, he met the ghost when he was running errands in the Su Mansion.

And after Fang Cheng inquired about others, he learned that this Su Mansion was originally the city lord's mansion, but it had been abandoned ten years ago.

Wang Lingyu went to Su Mansion because he had just bought this house and was preparing to clean up the sundries, so he would move in after a while.

Standing outside from afar and looking at this long-abandoned mansion, Fang Cheng felt a gust of wind for no reason.

Su Fu is like a giant beast full of fangs, waiting for the living to be sent to the door with its mouth open.

But after only a moment's hesitation, Fang Cheng sneaked directly into the Su Mansion.

As soon as he landed, he heard the sound of moving weeds, as if something was coming.

Fang Cheng jumped up and landed lightly on an eaves, looking around through the starlight.

Due to disrepair, the entire Su Mansion has long been overgrown with weeds and is barren.

Many of the houses have been eroded by the rain and are in a state of semi-collapse.

Grunt

There were a few insect chirps from the pond, especially loud in the silent night.

Fang Cheng walked against the wind and floated out silently, hovering over the entire Su Mansion.

Soon he spotted an anomaly, which appeared to be a lady's boudoir, all the wood was painted red, and the room emitted a faint white light.

Fang Cheng landed in front of the door, gathered all his breath, and leaned in front of the window to look into the room from the shabby window paper.

The room was filled with a strong smell of blood, as if it had been fermented for many days, and the smell was extremely fishy.

More than a dozen corpses were lying on the ground, and there were many glowing insects lying on the corpses, and it was the light emitted by these insects that attracted Fang Cheng's attention.

"It's a corpse worm. ”

He knew the origin of these insects at a glance, they were very old insects that could only hatch in places with sufficient spiritual energy.

However, the source of the attack on Wang Lingyu had not yet been found, and Fang Cheng couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Just as he was about to turn away, he suddenly felt a warm current in the back of his neck.

Something came and was standing right behind him, but they couldn't seem to see him.

Fang Cheng pressed his mind to turn his head and look, and directly launched the end of the world, appearing a few zhang away.

Only then did he see that there was an extra shadow on the window paper, but there was nothing in his field of vision.

He quietly took out a golden talisman from his sleeve, opened his mouth and swallowed it directly.

After swallowing the talisman, the world in front of Fang Cheng was suddenly covered with a light layer of pink, and in the pink world, he finally saw a person standing outside the window.

The man looked a little a foot shorter than him, and seemed to be a woman when he died, and the lower half of her body had become very bloated, as if she was flatulent, and it was half a foot above her shoulders.

But her senses were very sensitive, and as soon as Fang Cheng's gaze fell on her, she immediately turned around.

Fang Cheng found out that this woman had a foxy face that brought disaster to the country and the people, but her white hair did not destroy her beauty in the slightest.

At this time, she still didn't find any trace of Fang Cheng, but she only hesitated for a moment before suddenly opening her mouth wide, revealing two rows of teeth as sharp as knives, and spit out a foot-long tongue from her mouth, like a snake constantly searching for the smell in the air.

Fang Cheng immediately felt creepy when he saw it, fortunately, he had already been mentally prepared, and when he saw her ugly state at this time, he calmed down after just a few breaths, and his palms were filled with true qi and ready to go.

She followed the smell of the air and approached until she was three feet away.

At this time, Fang Cheng could already smell the stench emanating from her body, and saw the worms that were constantly wriggling under the skin on her face.

"Sure enough, it's the mother body of the corpse insect, I can't imagine that there is such a cruel Dao technique in the world. ”

Fang Cheng had already confirmed his original idea, it was not a ghost that attacked Wang Lingyu, but a man-made disaster.

Someone used cruel Taoist techniques to train a real-life female cultivator into a corpse insect mother, and this mother naturally injured Wang Lingyu without intention.

bang

Fang Cheng clasped his hands together, and a Daoist true fire burned in his palms, which slapped directly at the head of the female worm.

At the moment, the mother worm seemed to have sensed the danger and tried to leap back.

But before she could escape a foot away, the Daoist True Fire in Fang Cheng's hand fell on her forehead.

It was as if a spark had fallen into the oil pot, and as soon as the Taoist true fire was stained with the mother worm, it triggered an explosion that spewed out countless flesh and venom.

Fortunately, Fang Cheng had already fled far away, so he was not hit by the flesh and venom on the mother worm's body.

The weeds on the ground were not as lucky as him, and they withered immediately after the venom was sprayed, as if they had experienced the four seasons in an instant.

"It's a pity that I don't know who laid this vicious Dao technique, what secrets are hidden in this mansion, and I need a corpse mother worm to protect it. ”

Fang Cheng finally left the Su Mansion with a lot of doubts and returned to the attic, and just after he left, a flame fell from the sky, igniting the weeds on the ground, and finally forming a fire.

The fire burned until dawn before it was discovered by a passing vegetable farmer, but by that time the entire Su Mansion had already been reduced to ruins.

……

"What? Su Mansion was burned to the ground!"

After Fang Cheng helped Wang Lingyu recuperate, he ran into Huo Dong as soon as he walked out of the attic, and Huo Dong told him about the destruction of Su Mansion.

"That's true, I heard that the fire was very strong because the weather was dry. Huo Dong affirmed.

"I had just left Su Mansion in the early hours of last night when there was a fire...... Hmph, it seems that someone is a thief. Fang Cheng also reacted at this time, there must be some kind of conspiracy in it.

He had just killed a corpse mother worm last night, and before he could take a closer look, the entire Su Mansion was burned to the ground, covering up all the secrets.

The person who performed this evil Dao technique was probably in the Su Mansion at the time, but he had never met him.

"Forget it, we'll investigate this matter after Senior Brother Wang's health improves. Fang Cheng explained.

"Yes, Uncle Shi. After Huo Dong answered, he retired on his own, he was in a hurry to rush back to cultivate the Vientiane True Scripture, and strive to become a real person as soon as possible, so as to prolong his life.

After Huo Dong walked away, Fang Cheng rushed outside Changsheng's boudoir.

He knocked lightly on the door three times, and Changsheng came to open the door for him.

"What strange things happened to you during my absence last night?" Fang Cheng asked.

"No, Huo Dong and I stayed outside the attic until dawn last night, and then we went back to our rooms to rest. Changsheng shook his head and handed him a sword he was holding in his hand.

"That's hard work, so take a good rest. Fang Cheng took the green steel sword and said softly.

Changsheng nodded, then turned away, closed the door with his hand, and shut him out.

syllable

Seeing this, Fang Cheng directly stretched out his hands and pushed forward suddenly, knocking the door open.

"You are so bold that you dare to throw yourself into the net!"
