Chapter 491: Meet the Incense Corpse Maggot Again
I was already a little anxious to find out about this, so I immediately said to the others, "Let's not talk so much, let's go and see first!" ”
Wen Qingshan nodded, bent down and lowered his head, and drilled into the archway, and the others followed closely behind.
There was a foul smell of rotting corpses in the cave, but in addition to this stench, there was also a faint smell of fragrance. The scent seemed familiar, and I must have smelled something similar somewhere, but I couldn't remember it for a moment.
But in any case, the aroma mixed with the stench of rotting corpses is really not very good.
I held my breath, followed closely behind Wen Qingshan and slowly walked into the arch cave, walking about seven or eight meters away, Wen Qingshan suddenly seemed to have found something, stopped, I put my head in front of me to take a look, only to see that there was a person lying about three or four meters away from us.
The man was wearing a black jacket and a trail of blood beside him that had long since turned black and his hair had dried. Needless to say, this should be the corpse Huang Si said, and the stench emanated from him.
We took two more steps forward, and I could see his face clearly, I almost didn't vomit out the meat bun I had eaten in the morning, that face, which had long been unrecognizable, looked like a blur of flesh and blood, and besides, something was faintly visible squirming on it, if it wasn't for the head, it was hard to imagine that it was a face!
Wen Qingshan frowned and said, "According to the time calculation, this guy should have died here half a month ago, and now the body has decomposed." ”
A few of us walked slowly to the corpse, and Haihuzi and the others covered their mouths and noses with their hands and frowned.
Xia Longsheng opened his mouth and asked, "Could it be maggots crawling on this guy's face!?" ”
"It's not maggots!"
Xia Longsheng looked around, and said suspiciously: "But there are no flies here, where are the maggots?" ”
As soon as his words fell, Wen Qingshan immediately turned his head and asked, "What did you say?" ”
"I think it's strange, if this corpse is really maggots, it should be full of flies, but look at it, not to mention flies around here, not even a single mosquito!"
Hearing Xia Longsheng say this, I couldn't help but be slightly stunned, not to mention, there was really not a single fly around here. It's weird.
I was wondering in my heart, Wen Qingshan suddenly made a bold move, he took out a silver nail, bent down, and stabbed the silver nail towards that extremely disgusting rotten face.
"Boss Wen, what are you doing here?"
Wen Qingshan didn't answer me, but stared at the silver nail in his hand, as if talking to himself, and said: "This doesn't seem to be a maggot, at least it's not a maggot under an ordinary fly!" I haven't seen anything yet. ”
Wen Qingshan's words aroused my curiosity, and I immediately leaned over to take a look, only to find that at the top of the two-inch-long silver nail in Wen Qingshan's hand, there was a large white maggot. The size of this maggot is not ordinarily big, it is two or three centimeters long, as thick as chopsticks, several times larger than ordinary maggots, the maggot was nailed by the silver nail to see this maggot, I suddenly had a thrill in my mind, I understood what this thing was, I blurted out and exclaimed: "This is a fragrant corpse maggot!" ”
Wen Qingshan turned his head to look at me: "Have you ever seen this thing?" ”
I nodded: "Why, I almost died at the hands of this thing!" ”
My words surprised everyone, Haihuzi couldn't believe it, and asked, "How powerful is this little maggot?" You can't even deal with Brother Shi Yu? ”
I laughed and said, "Hehe, I was a teenager at the time!" ”
"What is the origin of this fragrant corpse maggot?" Wen Qingshan asked.
"This fragrant corpse maggot is actually not a maggot, but because it looks like a maggot, it is called this, in fact, it is a parasitic Gu worm."
Wen Qingshan's face changed slightly: "What! This thing is a Gu worm!? ”
I nodded, and continued, "Fragrant maggots feed on carrion, and the droppings they excrete give off a strange aroma that prevents other insects from approaching. ”
Hearing me say this, Xia Longsheng suddenly realized: "I said that there is still a fragrance here, and there is not a single fly, it turns out that this thing is all doing trouble." ”
Wen Qingshan pondered for a moment, then turned his head and asked me, "Just now you said that you almost died in the hands of this fragrant corpse maggot, what is so powerful about this thing?" Could it be poisonous? ”
I shook my head and said, "I don't know if it's poisonous or not, but I heard Uncle Zhai say that this thing will sneak into the human body or other animals, parasitize in the human or animal body like a parasite, and control the host's behavior, the purpose is to kill the host, and then suck the essence blood in the host." ”
Hearing me say this, Seabeard, Xia Longsheng and Luo Quan all took a few steps back involuntarily, and Luo Quan also took a flashlight to shine on the floor, as if he was afraid that a fragrant corpse maggot would climb on him.
Xia Longsheng asked in a daze, "Could it be that this guy was killed by the incense corpse maggot?" ”
"This shouldn't be enough, the maggots don't take the initiative to attack people, they usually wait for people to fall asleep, and they unknowingly burrow into people's bodies from their nostrils or mouths, I don't think this guy can sleep in this ghost place!"
Wen Qingshan frowned and said, "It seems that this guy should have been attacked first, and after he died, these fragrant corpse maggots burrowed into the corpse again." ”
As soon as his words fell, Xia Longsheng immediately said: "I'll just say, it must be because of the uneven distribution of the spoils, this guy was killed by his accomplices." ”
I waved my hand and said, "No! I'm afraid he wasn't killed by his accomplices, but by the Mother Gu! ”
Wen Qingshan was slightly stunned: "Mother Gu? What female Gu? ”
I explained: "Fragrant corpse maggots belong to social species, their living habits are similar to bees, ants and other insects, in their group, there is a female Gu, equivalent to the queen bee in the bee colony, and ordinary maggots are equivalent to worker bees, they absorb essence everywhere, feed the mother Gu, after the mother Gu absorbs a large amount of essence, it will be cultivated into Gu essence, Gu essence can grow to the size of a domestic cat, will forage for food, and its saliva contains highly poisonous, as long as the prey is bitten by it, it will be unconscious in a moment, It then slowly drains the blood of its prey. ”
"What did you say!? A maggot the size of a house cat!? This is also an exaggeration! You're not trying to scare us, are you? "Xia Longsheng didn't believe what I said.
I glanced at him and said slowly: "I didn't scare you, I once encountered such a big female Gu, and it hasn't become a Gu essence yet, but the speed is also extremely fast, I was bitten by it, and I fell into a coma at that time, if it weren't for Zhai Bo, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago." ”
When I said this, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone looked around, as if they were afraid that a huge maggot would come out of nowhere.
I'm not afraid, although I almost died in the hands of the mother Gu, but now it's not what it used to be, not to mention that my cultivation has reached the realm of almost becoming a god, the key is that I am already invincible. In time, no matter how poisonous the Gu essence's saliva is, I don't care about it.
The most important thing for me now is to determine the true identity of the body in front of me. I walked over to the corpse and crouched down, first looked at the face that had already been unrecognizable, and when I looked closely, I felt more and more nauseous, and I only felt a churning in my stomach. And the key is that the face is already blurred with flesh and blood, and the facial features are no longer obvious, let alone looking for a black mole.
I had to check his right ear, according to Huang Yixian, Ma Yuanjing's right ear was cut off when dealing with the blood corpse, if this person's right ear is missing, then it can basically be determined that he is my master Boma Yuanjing.
Since this guy's head was tilted to the right, and he just pressed his right ear underneath, I had no choice but to hold his head with my hand and slowly straighten his head.
Seeing this, Seabeard, who was standing on the side, asked in surprise, "Brother Shiyu, what are you doing here!?" ”
I didn't answer him, for I felt like I had eaten a meal of flies, and I was so sick that I had to face a bloody face with white maggots crawling out from time to time, and that the maggots had already crawled onto my hands. I guess as soon as I open my mouth at this time, before I can speak, I will immediately vomit.
I tried not to pay attention to the face, and focused all my attention on the corpse's right ear, but when I straightened the corpse's head and looked at it, I was stunned for the whole pinna of the creature's right ear had been eaten by the maggots, and several fat white maggots were crawling out of the bloody holes.
Seeing this scene, I couldn't hold back anymore and threw up "wow".
Wen Qingshan hurriedly walked over, patted me lightly on the back with his hand, and pulled me back a few steps, while Seabeard laughed and teased: "Hehe, I didn't expect that someone as strong as Brother Shi Yu would feel disgusting!" ”
I vomited and gasped and said, "You can try to hold that head up close!" ”
"Speaking of which, I was about to ask you, why are you touching that head when you have nothing to do!? If you want to do an autopsy, won't you let that old man come later? ”
I wiped the remaining vomit from my mouth with my cuff and said angrily, "The autopsy is my business, I want to see his ears!" ”
"Look at his ears? Why look at his ears? Seabeard asked, puzzled.
Without waiting for me to answer, Wen Qingshan said on the side: "Shi Yu just wants to confirm the identity of this person!" ”
Seabeard and the others glanced at each other, with a puzzled expression, Xia Longsheng asked, "You can confirm his identity by looking at your ears?" ”
