Chapter 10: Corpse Guards
The bright moon of the two wheels exudes a gentle and pure light in the blue velvet night sky.
Normally, every night, Zoe would begin to sigh that the night on Los Mercury was much better than her hometown, and the night sky here, like a dazzling gem platter, was very beautiful. There is an inexplicable sense of comfort.
But tonight, Zoe doesn't have time to enjoy the beautiful night sky, she has turned on her detection system, and as Chenfeng approaches the "murderous house", Zoe's detection system also starts working.
"There is no one within 10 meters around!" Zoe's voice sounded in Chen Feng's mind, 10 meters is the detection distance she has now, according to Zoe herself, if there is no damage, the detection distance she can reach can reach a range of 200 meters, that is to say, with Zoe as the center, within a circle with a radius of 200 meters, you can clearly know the situation. But now, she can only detect the surrounding 10 meters, and this house is far more than 10 meters, so even if Zoe turns on the detection function to the maximum, she can only roughly detect the energy fluctuations inside, and what it is, you still need to walk in to see.
Of course, in order to completely repair Zoe, Morning Maple needs to make Zoe absorb a lot of energy. Now he is not even a martial artist, and he can't do this for the time being, which is why Zoe stays by Chenfeng's side temporarily.
"This function is really easy to use!" Every time Zoe used the detection function, Chen Feng would sigh in his heart.
"How do we get in? Will anyone come?" Ke Mengyu followed Chen Feng, and the two came to the edge of the wall around the murderous mansion, where a few big trees were planted, and the branches and foliage of the big trees were luxuriant, so it was easier to hide.
The wind was strong at night, and the branches and leaves were rustling.
After Ke Mengyu asked, he couldn't help but shudder.
Chen Feng reached out and patted her shoulder gently, and then said, "Don't worry, no one will come for the time being!"
After speaking, Chen Feng had already taken out the rope he had made during the day.
The wrist trembled, the rope was tied to the iron hook, and after a few turns in Chen Feng's hand, one end of the iron hook was thrown over the wall by Chen Feng.
As soon as he pulled hard, the hook hooked the protruding part at the top of the back of the wall, Chen Feng pulled the rope a few times to make sure it was fixed, and then said to Ke Mengyu: "You go first!"
Ke Mengyu was a little hesitant, the girl's family was still a little scared when she came to this kind of haunted murderous house at night. But her eyes flickered, and she thought of the secret that her mother might be missing, so she gritted her teeth and reached out and grabbed the rope hard.
Ke Mengyu is also training her physical strength, climbing this kind of wall is not a difficult task for her, her arms are hard to go up, and her body quickly rises off the ground.
Seeing that Ke Mengyu's speed was a little slow, Chen Feng hurriedly reached out and pushed Ke Mengyu.
The palm of his hand touched the softness under the gauze skirt, Chen Feng's face flushed slightly, and at this time he remembered that they were no longer children when they were children, and now Ke Mengyu has a bumpy figure, and has already become a young and beautiful girl.
Finding that Ke Mengyu didn't react, Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief, let go of his hand, and Ke Mengyu finally climbed the wall.
Standing on the wall, Ke Mengyu thought of the warmth of his palm from behind him just now, and his face flushed: He, did it happen on purpose?
Shaking his head, Ke Mengyu didn't think much about it, the most important thing now is to explore the secrets of this house.
Ke Mengyu stood on the wall and waited for Chen Feng, Chen Feng's physical fitness was much better, this kind of wall, with the help of ropes, it took him 3 seconds to come to the wall.
Standing on the wall under the starlight, you can see the courtyard in general view.
Grass, rockeries, some unknown trees, and a small pond in the middle of the yard. Behind the courtyard is a deep and dark house, and the location of the house is not clear. Such a courtyard can indeed be called a mansion in Tianling City, where the land is tight.
"Let's go, let's go down!" Chen Feng looked around and said to Ke Mengyu. Standing on top of this, it was eye-catching, and he didn't want to stay too long.
Ke Mengyu nodded, Chen Feng grabbed her little hand, and the two jumped down together.
It landed easily, with soft grass under your feet and no movement. However, Chen Feng still looked around very carefully, during the day, Zoe said that there were spiritual power fluctuations in this house, and he had to be careful.
The night was terrible, and when they took a careful step forward, they could clearly hear the sound of their shoes rubbing against the grass.
The two came to the pond, and at this time, Chen Feng's brows furrowed slightly and stopped.
"What's wrong?" Seeing this, Ke Mengyu hurriedly held Chen Feng's arm with both hands, then looked around cautiously and asked in a low voice.
"Do you think that the silence is terrible? There is not even an ordinary insect call!" Chen Feng whispered, according to previous experience, in this kind of densely vegetated yard, it is impossible to have no ordinary insect calls at night.
Before Ke Mengyu could speak, a clear sound of trees breaking sounded in the quiet night, extremely clear.
Chen Feng and Ke Mengyu's faces changed, and then, a small black shadow scurried through the grass in front of them.
"Ah——, what is it?" Ke Mengyu's hands tightly grasped Chen Feng's arm and looked nervously ahead.
"Zoe!" Chen Feng saw this black shadow, and the first time he called out to Zoe in his heart, this distance was within 10 meters, and Zoe's detection function could help him know what it was.
After finishing speaking, Chen Feng couldn't finish protecting Ke Mengyu's hand, making her lower the fear in her heart.
"Yes, it's a corpse worm!" Zoe's voice sounded in Chenfeng's head.
"Corpse Guardian!?" Chen Feng shouted in surprise.
In the next second, under Zoe's control, information about the corpse guard insect had appeared in Chen Feng's mind:
Corpse Keeper Worm, insect spirit animal, has a global distribution, likes to be generated in the shadows, is very interested in the corpse of humans, animals, and spirit beasts, and after discovering a corpse, it will always stay by the side and devour the corpse cleanly, and after the corpse devoured by the corpse worm, only the skull will remain, and after devouring the corpse, the corpse keeper insect does not like to leave, but will guard it for a long time. According to investigations, some corpse guards may even stay in place for more than 10 years after devouring a corpse, waiting until they advance before leaving. The corpse guards can reach the 3rd order at the strongest, and their horizontal sharp teeth are their weapons, and the sharp teeth are highly poisonous, and the toxicity can make a first-rank martial artist die. The Corpse Keeper hates to be disturbed, and when it enters its territory, it may initiate an attack.
Directly let the information appear in Chen Feng's mind, this is also Zoe's ability, she can directly transmit the information she knows to Chen Feng's brain, so that he can know the comprehensive information as quickly as possible. Chen Feng has read the "Spirit Beast Encyclopedia", but it is impossible to remember the information of every spirit beast, but Zoe can, the books in the library of the Heavenly Spirit Academy have been recorded by her, and in just a few tenths of a second, she can search for the information that Chen Feng needs, and then transmit the information to Chen Feng's mind.
This information appeared in Chen Feng's mind, and Chen Feng felt a chill down his spine, although it was said that because of the conjecture of the Ancient Demon Insect Body, before Ke Mengyu came to him, he was thinking about finding some insect spirit beasts by himself to test the awakening of the Ancient Demon Insect Body. However, that is the kind of insect spirit beast that he is going to choose to be safe and does not take the initiative to attack people to test, this corpse guard worm, as said in the information, will take the initiative to attack people, and it is also highly poisonous. If you are hit, a first-class martial artist may die.
Thinking of this, Chen Feng's whole body tensed, and his feet standing on the grass couldn't help but tremble slightly.
During the day, he was frightened by the golden horn insects, and at night he encountered the corpse guard insects.
"Zoe, what do we do now?"
Chen Feng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, the light at night was too dark, and the corpse guard insect was in the grass, so he didn't know when it would attack. Now Chen Feng's mind is blank, and he can only ask Zoe.
"According to your book, the corpse keeper is very hot-tempered, and if it enters its territory and disturbs its rest, it will take the initiative to attack. But it's still quiet, could it be your body, does it really have any special abilities?" Zoe speculated.
During the day, the Golden Horn Worm was on Chen Feng's legs, but did not attack Chen Feng, and Chen Feng had some kind of guess in his heart, and this guess was also discussed with Zoe during the day.
As a result of the discussion, it was very likely that Chen Feng really possessed the Eternal Demon Insect Body. According to the introduction in "The Legend of the Ten Absolute Bodies", the ancient demon insect body has the ability to control all insects in the world. A person who owns 10,000 shares of a demon insect body can achieve symbiosis with insects. This symbiosis is mutually beneficial, and insects fight for people, and naturally they will gain something from people. Of course, the specific details of this may only be known to the owner of the Eternal Demon Worm Body. However, this speculation in the book is also very reasonable.
Therefore, Zoe speculated that although Chen Feng had not awakened the Ancient Demon Insect Body now, if he did have this kind of physique, the insect spirit beast would not attack him, and he would say it in the past.
Just as Zoe was discussing with Chen Feng, the corpse guard in front of him moved.
Chen Feng only saw a black shadow rushing out of the grass and rushing towards him.
"Flashlight on!"
This was Zoe's voice, and after her voice sounded, the bracelet on Chen Feng's hand suddenly lit up, and a dazzling light shot out from the bracelet.
Then it shone accurately on the dark shadow ahead.
The black shadow did not move in vain, and landed on a stone not far in front of Chen Feng's eyes.
Chen Feng saw what it looked like clearly:
Its size was much larger than that of the Golden Horn Insect, the size of a fist, and its body was also pitch black, and its black shell was somewhat shiny under the light of the bracelet. Above the head, there are two slender antennae, and below the antennae are the highly poisonous sharp teeth, which are long horizontally, and they are moving slowly at this time.
Seeing this somewhat scary insect, Ke Mengyu couldn't help but screamed out directly.
"Ahh
Shrill cries spread across the night sky.
"Oh no!" Chen Feng's face changed slightly.
