Everyone was dumbfounded.

"What's the secret in your book? It can make you change your temperament greatly, and you will not hesitate to give up so many cherished things......" Ma Jian shook his head and sighed while looking at Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng once again showed a sad expression on his face, and said lightly: "Teacher, if you say a secret, it won't be a secret." Unless...... Whoever shouldn't know the secret is dead. There are five of you here, and five lives for a secret, is it worth it? ”

Zhou Zheng's tone was gentle, but it was terrifying to hear, as if the life and death of the five of us were in his hands, and he could take our lives with just a few fingers.

Looking at those poisonous insects all over the ground, I knew that Zhou Zheng's confidence was well-founded.

Ma Tan hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at me, apparently asking for my opinion. I nodded at him, and he looked at Liang Yue and Xing Mo again, and they both nodded in unison. Ma Tan looked at the third uncle again, and the third uncle was still sitting there cross-legged at this time, as if he was asleep, and he was indifferent to everything that happened on the field.

According to the principle that the minority obeys the majority, we don't need to ask the third uncle's opinion.

I guess everyone thinks so, this secret is on Zhou Zheng's lips, and this secret may be related to the origin and direction of the entire incident in Nanliu Village. Even if we don't ask this secret, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get out of this hole in today's situation.

Seeing that we had reached an agreement, Zhou Zheng took a deep breath and said, "Okay." Since you are not afraid of death, I will tell you this secret. After I got the secret book of my ancestors, I found the map of Qiyang Mountain, and I thought that my ancestors would leave me a fortune, maybe there will be a treasure waiting for me to dig up. Who knew that after I studied and understood that book, I realized that many treasures of nature are actually more precious and valuable than more real money. Because real money has a price, but the treasures of nature are priceless. Like what...... Bird elixir, and ...... Gentian sand. ”

"Gentian Sand?" We heard something new from Zhou Zheng's mouth, and we couldn't help but be curious.

Zhou Zhengze continued: "Gentian sand, like the Bird Spirit Pill, has an extremely complex formation process. It's just that the name is good, it is said to be gentian, but it is actually from the body of the insect. We know that, like birds, insects have a natural lifespan that no one knows. Worms have more natural predators, and the vast majority of worms die unexpectedly. Mollusks do not have gallbladders in their bodies, but these insects that die unexpectedly will produce a special substance in their bodies, which is similar to the bile of other animals, but this substance is solid, called worm sand. This kind of worm sand can detoxify all kinds of poisons, but it must be taken out of the worm's body in time, otherwise it will decompose within a minute,"

Speaking of which, I glanced at Ma Yan. At that time, we were poisoned by the sand wolf worm, and he took something from the worm's body to detoxify it. Could that thing be the so-called worm sand?

Nine times out of ten, this is the case, but Ma Jian is silent, listening intently to Zhou Zheng's narration, and we don't need to ask in a hurry.

"Actually, during the time I followed the teacher, the teacher has also been researching

How can this insect sand be preserved for a long time, and if it can be successful, it will be a discovery that will attract worldwide attention. But I guess the teacher hasn't made much progress......"

Ma Tan frowned and asked, "So, you have researched it?" ”

Zhou Zheng smiled and nodded: "I remember that the teacher often said to us, that is, never underestimate the wisdom of our ancestors, what has been passed down by our ancestors is a treasure in many fields. I remember the teacher's words, and I think so. In the book left by Zou Baizu, there is a detailed record of how to obtain this kind of insect sand. ”

"Oh? Sure enough, there is a way to get worm sand. When Ma Tan heard this, his eyes lit up.

Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "I know that the teacher can't wait, don't worry, listen to the students slowly." The book records that hundred-legged insects die without stiffness, and if a large number of poisonous insects die and are buried in the soil, the body will produce a large amount of toxins. If these toxins are emitted, they are insect stiffness, and if people smell them, they will change their body. If these toxins are dispersed in the soil, they will ensure that the worm sand produced by the insect body is permanently preserved. However, once the worm sand leaves the soil, it will still decompose. ”

Ma Jian said: "Isn't this still unsaveable? You can't take the worm sand with the dirt, right? ”

Zhou Zheng waved his hand: "Teacher, you are too anxious, I haven't finished talking yet." Do you remember our project? ”

"Dijiao?"

Zhou Zheng shook his head and said, "Yes, it's not right." Dijiao is just a temporary name given by the teacher? Actually, this creature ......"

As he spoke, Zhou Zheng put his hand into his arms and grabbed a strange worm. The worm twisted its body in Zhou Zheng's hands, with a round head and a slender tail like a snake, but there were many limbs distributed on the body, and there were many dense thin feet. Isn't this the one on the picture that Ma Tan showed me?

The insect was not very large, and its length was more than 20 centimeters. The triangular head spun around, and a snake-like letter came out of his mouth. It gives you goosebumps just looking at it.

Zhou Zheng continued: "Actually, this creature is called a mirage. It is not a creature inherited from ancient times, but a product cultivated by nature by chance. The formation of a mirage requires the cooperation of many conditions. For example, you need a good climate, good soil, and even suitable feng shui, and you also need a place where yin qi is focused. The cliff valley where we are located is such a place. At that time, a large number of insect carcasses were buried in the ground, and this was the best food for a golden silkworm snake. The golden silk earthworm swallows a centipede, the centipede is dead but not stiff, in the belly of the earthworm will gradually wake up and resurrect, after gestation, two years later, the two creatures will merge into one, forming a new species, called mirage. The mirage will swallow the insect sand in the ground, and the insect sand will gather into a tower, and condense in the body of the mirage, and after a few years, the mirage will spit out a thing, which is gentian sand. ”

After listening to Zhou Zheng's narration, I realized that the kind of creature that Ma Tan and they came to look for was not a ground jiao, but a mirage. Moreover, this kind of mirage is still necessary for the formation of gentian sand

To be a link.

Ma Tan asked, "So the last time you came, you were looking for mirages and gentian sand?" Why don't you come alone, but with us? ”

Zhou Zheng shook his head: "No." I was caught off guard by that subject. Because no one else in the world knows this secret. As soon as I saw the picture and the photograph, I knew it was a mirage. But I can't stop us from coming to Qiyang Mountain, and I can't stop it. ”

Ma Tan nodded: "So, you want this secret to be kept unknown." There are only a few means that can be taken to interrupt the research on this topic. ”
