"Cockroaches, belonging to the phylum Arthropods, Insecta, and Cockroaches, are also often used for medicinal purposes; Gradual metamorphosis, omnivorous, like warmth and love tide, like dark and afraid of light, there are thousands of kinds of them, and the common ones are...... "For the book knowledge related to these animals, Lu Keke can be said to be like a few treasures, open your mouth to come.

"Stop, stop...... I don't have time for you to popularize science, just say what to do! Wen Renchu interrupted her impatiently, if she was allowed to continue to talk like this, it would not be over.

"Hehe, I don't know." Lu Keke's old face turned red, and he couldn't help but scratch his head in disgust.

"I really want to throw you back now, maybe I can buy us some time to escape!" Of course, Wen Renchu was just talking, and he was reluctant to really throw this sister out, although she was fat and skinny.

Looking around, everything has been razed to the ground, and there is not even a place to hide, so everyone can only subconsciously run forward desperately.

"Wasn't there a temple on the hill when we came? It should be possible to avoid it for a while. Lu Keke suddenly looked up and caught a glimpse of a mountain-style pavilion building standing quietly on the mountain to the west.

"That's all it takes, let's run again." Wen Renchu reluctantly accepted this proposal, mainly because he couldn't think of a better way or place to go for the time being. Running into the jungle? No, it will slow down your speed and increase your chances of being overtaken; Jumping into the river? Didn't even think about it...... The key is not whether the cockroach can swim, but whether he can swim, not to mention that the water situation at this time is not optimistic! In short, let's take a step away and see a step, maybe there will be a turnaround, but it is not known.

As far as the eye can see, there seems to be no place in the whole town that can be called a building except for the fact that it is still well preserved.

Along the way, the embarrassed and panicked crowd was gradually dispersed, so that by the time they reached the mountain, there were less than twenty people left, including Wen Renchu and them; The others who ran away were either panicked like headless flies, or were overwhelmed by the cockroach tide because they were injured or sick or left at the end of the line with the old and the young.

However, Wen Renchu noticed another detail that surprised him in the process of escaping, that is, in addition to the young man who was attacked and devoured by the cockroaches at the beginning, although there were two other people who suffered the same fate after that, but that's all. It's strange here, because it wasn't just the three of them who were chased by the cockroach tide, but only the three of them were attacked; The rest of the people who fell behind the group had already closed their eyes and given up hope, but in the next second, the cockroach tide completely ignored them, and just bypassed them and walked away.

And he also noticed that these cockroaches ...... Seems to have been chasing their group? But I can't think about it so much at this time, so it's important to find a place to hide first.

The green mountains to the west are not too high, and it is estimated that the highest point above sea level will not exceed 500 meters. The mottled mountain gate of "one floor and two pillars" has experienced many winds and frosts on the mountainside, and the building in front of you is actually a quaint Taoist temple, I don't know its name.

At this time, the door of the Taoist temple was open, and the people inside seemed to be unusually busy back and forth, because Wen Renchu had heard the people of the search and rescue team mention it before, and it should be because some of the wounded were transferred by the Taoist leaders in the Taoist temple for treatment.

Everyone rushed in directly, the view is not big, at a glance, only a simple pure wooden bell and drum tower in front of the front and the side halls on the left and right sides. After briefly explaining the current situation to the people in the audience, everyone immediately decided to retreat to the temple for refuge, because even if they wanted to take other measures to save themselves, it was too late.

However, after more than ten minutes, the tide of cockroaches that should have poured in did not appear, which made Wen Renxiao and others hiding in the main hall look at each other, and for a while the tense atmosphere in the hall overwhelmed everyone, but no one dared to go out rashly to find out.

Wen Ren had already felt that something was wrong, and he didn't want to be trapped here all the time, so he volunteered and decided to go out alone to see the situation.

"I'll go back as soon as I go." Wen Renchu didn't want to be strong, he knew his current situation, but there were some things that maybe only he could figure out.

"Then be careful." Lu Keke knew that he was not a reckless person, and seeing him decide like this, he must have his own thoughts. Wen Renchu pinched her fleshy face, smiled and cast a reassuring look at her, and then walked straight out.

It's true that I haven't seen a single cockroach in the courtyard of the temple, but the more this happens, the more weird it feels, and it's impossible to chase all the way to the mountains and suddenly withdraw the troops, which is too illogical. Is it because they have some scruples or other reasons that they are blocked outside the door and dare not come in?

In order to verify his guess, Wen Renchu carefully watched the surroundings, came to the gate lightly, and then poked out half of his head like a thief and looked out.

Sure enough, the black army of cockroaches was all crowded outside the door, obviously the entire Taoist temple was surrounded by water, looking at the battle of the three layers and the outer three layers here, the people in the temple were estimated to be unable to fly. But for some reason, they have remained unmoved. And in the cockroach colony a few meters away, Wen Renchu was stunned to find a figure with a side - the white cat he met in the jungle before.

I saw that it was surrounded by an army of cockroaches, followed by the giant dark red cockroach, and was walking towards him.

"Human, we meet again." The white cat is still as cold and arrogant as when it first met, and its round eyes are faintly shining with green glow.

"I see, ......" The unexpected appearance of the white cat really caught Wen Ren by surprise, but it also made him suddenly a little surprised by the cockroach incident, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be a rare soul beast, right?" ”

"Human, you're smart. I am the heavens listening, from the Yellow Spring. The white cat said proudly.

"No wonder...... In that case, can you please tell me what is the purpose of controlling these cockroaches? ”

Its origin is really as much as Wen Ren guessed before, in fact, the vast majority of soul beasts live in the underworld, and it is not allowed and difficult to come to the human world; But there is a kind of soul beast that lives in Huangquan is allowed, and they are the Tianting clan known as Huangquan Mengpo.
