Chapter 60: Ghost Eggs
"Xiao Jiu, come out quickly, don't touch the ghost eggs on the leaves"
Ghost Jiu hurriedly retracted his hand into the cuffs, carefully brushed away the leaves, and withdrew: "Uncle, there are tadpoles in there." [Ran^Text^Library] []
Liu Gen made a silent movement on his mouth with his hand, and pulled the ghost Jiu to carefully retreat five meters away: "That's not a tadpole, it's a ghost egg!"
"Ghost eggs! What's that? "Oni has never heard of such a creature for a long time.
Uncle said in a low voice: "The ghost egg is like a tadpole, it is difficult to see on the ground, it lives in the deep underground, and it is difficult to be discovered, so few people know that there is such a creature, according to some ancient records, there is a creature in the underground stone, their body is in the form of a corrosive liquid, free in the stone, every thousand years will climb out of the stone, lay eggs on a special plant."
Ghost Jiu listened to his uncle's Arabian Nights, and was not too surprised, because the things in his recent * calendar can also be said to be Arabian Nights.
"What's that plant called?" Onihisa asked.
Liu Gen glanced at the grass and said slowly: "Then these grasses must be grass."
Oni Jiu frowned, trying to find in his memory, and there was no impression of this plant.
Liu Gen saw the ghost's thoughtful appearance for a long time, knowing that he had doubts, and then said: "The grass is a legendary plant, I haven't seen it, there is a record in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, "The Mountain of the Middle Seven Classics and Aunts": The emperor died, and her name was called the female corpse, which turned into a grass, and its leaves became and its Hua Huang was actually like a mound, and it was flattering to people."
"And how do you know it's a weed?" Oni Jiu was a little puzzled.
Liu Gen continued: "The feng shui book handed down by my ancestors records that ghost eggs are attached to the grass. There are also pictures that closely resemble the scene. The ghost egg eats away at its flowers and fruits at the beginning, and when it grows to a tadpole type, it begins to enter the leaves to eat its leaves, and then enters the stone, and begins to change to an adult shape, and when it becomes an adult, it is called a stone ghost, but when it does not fully become an adult, it is extremely acidic, and it is soluble with the inorganic matter in the stone, even if you knock the stone artificially, you can't see it, because the whole stone is it."
Liu Gen told a strange story that Onijiu had never heard of in one breath, and Onijiu couldn't understand it for a while, because this biological phenomenon was too unreasonable.
"Xiao Jiu, these ghost eggs have grown into tadpole shapes and are in the stage of entering the stone, so we better stay away from them, the acidity can even corrode the stone, not to mention our flesh ......" Liu Genzheng said, realizing that those tadpoles were already crawling outside the leaves, very fast.
The grass was covered with mud, the stones were not exposed, and these tadpole-shaped ghost eggs began to pour in the direction of the onijiu and the others, thousands of them, and they were black and overwhelming.
Liu Gen pointed behind Ghost Jiu, who looked back and realized that not far behind him were some rocks that were exposed to the ground, and these tadpoles must have come from the stones, but it was impossible for them to deliberately bypass him and his uncle, and if they crawled over them, they would easily be severely burned. The situation is urgent, and with the speed of the tadpoles, it is impossible to dodge.
It makes sense that Oni Jiu suddenly thought of the greenstone in his arms, since the greenstone can scare away ice insects, maybe it can also block ghost eggs. Thinking of this, Onijiu quickly took out the greenstone, which was not stimulated by ice insects and did not emit light. However, when the ghost eggs surged two meters below their feet, they stopped.
The ghost breathed a long sigh of relief, it seems that this greenstone still works.
Liu Gen was shocked at this time, after he hypnotized Xiao Jiu and Liu Nianzu, he had already taken the green stone from Xiao Jiu's bag, intending to deal with the expected ice worms. Why does Xiao Jiu still have a greenstone?
Regarding why Liu Gen had to come to Mongolian Mountain, there is actually a hidden story, and the ghost seems to know some reasons in the blur, that is, it is related to the soul-locking insect bowl, and it is actually true. However, some of the original commissions involved the greenstone.
In the feng shui book handed down by Liu Gen's family, there is also a legend about the soul locking bowl, which can replace the soul of the human body. But in the process of replacement, there is a very critical step, that is, after the soul leaves the body, the body requires an extremely cold temperature to be instantly frozen, and the thing that can achieve the effect of instant freezing is the legendary underground ice worm. Then everything has its opposite, which is the way of the universe, and Liu Gen certainly understands this truth. Ice insects can be frozen instantly, and they need to have things that they restrain to do in the later stage of human body channeling, so as to force the cold that invades the internal organs, otherwise even if this person's soul is put into the body and thawed, if there is no restraint of ice insects to help, this person's * will not live long.
Of course, this is all recorded in the book, and Liu Gen didn't fully believe it, after all, he hadn't seen the ice worm and its hostile object with his own eyes.
However, when Ghost Jiu came back to attend his grandmother's funeral, he told Liu Gen about the adventures in the Jingdong Grand Canyon, and Liu Gen completely believed that these records were true.
At the beginning, Changshou Lao was very angry because Liu Gen and them stole the soul lock bowl, and found Liu Gen the next night, but was defeated by Liu Gen. But they also reached an agreement, that is, Liu Gen let him go, and he never again sought revenge on Liu Gen, and lived in seclusion in the depths of the Mongolian mountains for the rest of his life.
Liu Gen took the bowl and studied it for many years, but there was no result, because the ice worms recorded in the book had nowhere to find it, but I didn't expect that more than ten years later, Liu Gen's soul lock bowl was lost inexplicably, Liu Gen suspected that he had lived a long life, but after thinking about it, maybe the old man missed his lover too much, her soul was still in this bowl, and it was just because of infatuation. Since I haven't researched it, it's just a matter of sending a favor.
And after the ghost Jiu told Liu Gen about the adventures of the Grand Canyon, and saw the greenstone again, Liu Gen decided to recapture the soul lock bowl, and the soul can be replaced, which will be of considerable help to the secret business of the Liu Gen family, and Liu Gen will not let go of this opportunity.
Unexpectedly, that Liu Nianzu had to follow them, and of course Liu Gen would not let outsiders get involved. When Liu Gen observed the changes in the compass, he had already noticed the strangeness in the vicinity, so he used the knocking stone to hypnotize them, and then took away the green stone of the ghost for a long time. According to the estimate, if that old man is here, with his own deduction of feng shui, it will be enough to find him within twelve hours, and then retrieve the soul lock bowl, so that Liu Nianzu and they will just sleep for a while, and then they will make up a random reason, and the matter will be done without knowing it.
Unexpectedly, the world made people, Liu Gen's body fell into the fountain hole, and it was the place where the old man hid the soul locking bowl, and by chance Liu Gen's soul was sucked in, and Liu Gen's body later erupted up with the geyser, was found by the monkey, and thrown into the prison full of human bones. Then there is the Three Corpse Worms, which use the monkey to periodically check the Soul Locking Bowl, and escape to return his soul to his body. The three-corpse worm followed the monkey and later took advantage of the inspection to return to the bowl.
These are not listed for the time being.
At this time, those ghost eggs stopped, and the ghost long thought it was the effect of the green stone, but within a few seconds, all the ghost eggs actually bypassed the ghost and swarmed towards Liu Gen's position.
The situation came suddenly and strangely, but fortunately, Liu Gen had martial arts and reacted quickly, pulling onions on dry land, twisting his feet, and flying out seven or eight meters away.
Onihisa also quickly followed, and the two of them ran together, but fortunately, the target of those ghost eggs was not exactly them, and after encountering those stones, they quietly disappeared into the stones.
When Oni Jiu and Liu Gen looked back, they were not only amazed, but there were still such strange creatures in the world!
They were now in a small mountain nest, perfect for hiding.
For the first time, Liu Gen revealed to Ghost Jiu that his family was going to carry out a business, but he did not specify what it was, and then simply told Ghost Jiu about how he came here, and Ghost Jiu was shocked to hear it. Of course, it's too late to say anything about the crystal ball.
Onijiu's heart is full of doubts, and he doesn't want to ask too much for the time being, but the most important thing now is to study what to do next.
"Uncle, since the Soul Locking Bowl is so important to you, why don't we think of a way to get it back," Oniku suggested.
Liu Gen didn't answer immediately, leaning over and looking out.
Onijiu said: "Uncle, don't look at it, there's no one around here"
Liu Gen looked back at Ghost Jiu, of course Ghost Jiu understood what Uncle meant, and returned: "Uncle, I was pushed into a glass room by them, and the outside was covered with ice worms, and at this time, the green stone in my arms suddenly emitted a green light, and I suddenly had a lot of strength to break free......"
Onijiu told his uncle what had happened in the past few hours.
Liu Gen said: "No, I took away your piece of greenstone, and my bag is now gone, where did you get this piece of greenstone?"
Ghost Jiu hurriedly explained: "Uncle, the greenstone I put in my bag is an imitation made of green ghosts, and after the greenstone was lost and recovered on the Great Wall, I was afraid that I would be followed and stolen by others, so I went to the jade shop to make a fake and put it in my bag, and I really kept it in my personal pocket all the time."
Liu Gen thought about it, fortunately, what he took was fake, otherwise Xiao Jiu would never have escaped, and he would not have come to save himself, it seems that everything can't just look at the temporary good or bad.
"Xiao Jiu, it was you who received the powerful energy that the greenstone was stimulated to completely open the Heavenly Eye, and the ears were all opened, and our phase-breaking stunt seems to have been carried forward and refined by you." Liu Gen was a little excited, thinking that at his age, he could still see that he was still blue, and there were successors, and it seemed that someone could help realize his family's great cause as soon as possible.
However, Oni Jiu still has a question: "Uncle, why did those ghost eggs bypass me just now, is it also because of the greenstone on my body?"
"When your greenstone is not stimulated by ice worms, it shouldn't have any effect, I think it should have something to do with the corpse insects that you ate when you were a child and were cursed" Liu Gen's inference should be correct.
When I mentioned the thing I ate in 1979, I reflexively wanted to vomit. But it's true that all the mosquitoes have never bitten themselves since that night. Also, his appearance and physical signs are enough to be twenty years younger, and the most likely reason is also because of eating that thing.
There is only one creature that is not afraid of itself, and that is the green snake in the Great Cave, which is different from other insects and has a direct relationship with the green ball in the cave. If that's the case, then what will happen if this greenstone is activated and touches the three corpse insects in the soul locking bowl?
Oniku didn't know why he thought this way.
The uncle then said, "Xiao Jiu, don't you think that monkey is a little weird?"
Of course Onijiu thinks that the monkey is extraordinary, and was about to ask his uncle why he could ask this, when suddenly there was a sound of running in the distance, coming straight to this side...... You provide the latest, fastest and most complete free novel updates【】
