"Then why did the corpse worm become an ant?" , Sister Li asked beside her. This is also the question I am most puzzled about - yes, corpse insects are extremely yang things, and that kind of ants are extremely yin things, although it is said that yin and yang can be transformed into each other, but I just can't understand how they are transformed.

After listening to Sister Li's question, Xiao Lei smiled and continued to explain: "Have you noticed, that kind of weird big ant, and the corpse insect, just in appearance, there is a little similarity - that is, they all have a humanoid face, and there are vague facial features on the face", after Xiao Lei reminded him, the three of us suddenly thought of this, Xiao Lei is right, why didn't we think of it before?

Xiao Lei continued: "It was the strange 'face' of both of them that made me suddenly realize that there may be some kind of connection between the two. I analyzed it carefully and came to the conclusion that they were all bred on corpses.

Of course, the corpse worm is bred from the corpse of a high monk, and another point, we have all heard my cousin say before that the 'human face worm' in the stomach of Zhang Yuanwai's son was bred from the corpse of a Taoist priest.

So I thought that the insects that breed on the corpses of the extreme yin and the extreme yang may have a head in the shape of a 'human face'. And since that kind of ant also has this kind of 'human face', it is very likely that they are also corpse insects that breed from corpses, and later become ants because of the special environment in the valley!

What are the peculiarities of the environment in the valley? Obviously, it is the yin qi that is extremely heavy. In other words, in this special yin environment, the corpse insect has developed into that kind of weird ant.

One more thing, ants crawl out of the dirt!

Therefore, I wondered if the corpse insect would turn into a butterfly when it was directly exposed to a hole with a strong yin qi, and if it was buried in the soil of the cave, it would become an ant.

Moreover, the soil in the cave is very special, when you were in Shanghai, do you remember what the Taoist priest said? ”

When Xiao Lei said this, he took a notebook from the side, then turned to a certain page and read:

"Qin Shi Huang once refined the elixir of life in the cave. How to refine this medicine primer? It was in that cave that three hundred pairs of eighteen-year-old virgins were given a special silk cloth to make peace day and night until they died of exhaustion, of course, to achieve this effect, three hundred pairs of men and women had to be given a special aphrodisiac, so that they were extremely excited.

After the death of these three hundred pairs of men and women, the corpses were wrapped in this large silk cloth, and then on the cloth, a specially configured decoction was repeatedly poured on the cloth, and after twenty seven days, that is, one hundred and forty days, these corpses and bones will condense into a piece of purple crystals that are only the size of a fetus under the joint action of the decoction and the yin and yang qi in the cave. This purple crystalline can be turned into a kind of spirit fetus. ”

When visiting the Taoist priest in Shanghai, only Xiao Lei held a notebook, sat next to him and carefully recorded what the Taoist priest said, now think about it, his approach is very good, as the saying goes, "a good memory is not as good as a bad pen", in addition, turning the information into words, it will make the information clearer, more organized, and easy to find more details.

Xiao Lei closed the notebook and said with emotion: "Fortunately, I recorded the words of the Taoist, so I remember this detail of the Taoist priest very deeply, when I was in the cave, I suddenly thought of this detail, and realized that although the mixture of these bones and decoction is padded with a cloth, it is impossible not to penetrate into the soil under the cloth, so that these soils become a kind of soil with a strong yin and yang qi." Xiao Ming, you also smelled it, that kind of soil has a special fishy smell, that is, the expression of yin and yang is extremely strong.

As for whether that kind of soil is extremely yin or polar yang, I haven't thought it through. But I remembered the book I read at my cousin, which said that both extreme yin and extreme yang can be transformed into each other, and when I combined these factors, it occurred to me that maybe if you bury the corpse worm in the soil, you may become an ant. I didn't expect it to be crooked, and it actually succeeded. ”

After Xiao Lei said this, although I still don't quite understand, I have a little understanding. In addition to being afraid, we admire Xiao Lei more and more - in that dangerous situation, he can see so many details and think so clearly, except for Xiao Lei, I am afraid that no one can do it.

Originally, we were full of confidence in this operation, thinking that we might be able to eliminate the blind man in one fell swoop, because we had made so many preparations after all, but what we didn't expect was that not only did we fail to eliminate the blind man, but we almost lost our lives. Well, what's next? Yiqiē seems to be back to square one.

My cousin suddenly interjected and said, "Listening to all these experiences in the cave, I think it's a little weird."

Hearing my cousin say this, we all turned our eyes to him, he leaned back on the sofa, touched his chin with his hand, tilted his face slightly, squinted, and continued thoughtfully: "We are in Shanghai, why didn't the Taoist priest mention the strange corpse on the rock wall when he heard him talk about the situation in the cave? Did he not know, or did he know but deliberately did not tell us? ”

These words of my cousin shook us very much—yes, the Taoist priest had been in the cave for so long, and he should have known that there was a corpse on the rock wall, but if he knew, why didn't he sue us?

However, if you think about it carefully, it is possible that the Taoist priest is completely unaware of this, and it is possible that the cave is pitch black after all, and maybe he really didn't find that strange corpse during the time he was cultivating in the cave.

But another question is: even if the Taoist priest doesn't know the corpse, but the Taoist priest will see the ants after all, don't those ants usually crawl to the corpse?

My cousin said that this possibility also exists - because after all, we disturbed the corpse with the corpse worm that day, the corpse is extremely yin, and the corpse insect is the most yang thing, and the yin and yang meet, just like water meets fire, both sides will inevitably react violently, so the corpse worm feathers into a butterfly, and the corpse also undergoes corpse transformation, which causes the ants to pass. And in normal times, it may not attract ants at all.

This kind of possibility, it makes my head a little dizzy, it's too complicated.

The secrets of the tall blind man are really peeled off layer after layer, but we have no other choice but to use perseverance and will to continue to peel back the cocoon until these secrets are completely clarified and the tall blind man is killed.

Uncle Tiyì, about these situations we encountered in the cave, it is best to ask the Taoist priest in Shanghai, he should be the person who knows the most about the qiē in the cave.

But the last time we visited the Taoist priest in Shanghai, we wanted to leave his contact information, but the Taoist priest told us that he had no telephone or other modern communication equipment, and that the only way to contact him was to contact the historian.

So, we immediately called the historian and told him in detail about the qiē we encountered in the cave, and asked him to go to the Taoist priest and tell us about our experience in the cave to see if the Taoist priest could provide some useful information.

But what happened next turned out completely unexpected.

When the historian in Shanghai answered the phone, he immediately went to the Taoist priest's house, but brought back a shocking news - the Taoist priest had moved away, and no one knew where he had moved!

The Taoist priest did not move early or late, but he moved at this time, and we vaguely felt that it was very strange. Is it hiding from us? So why hide from us? Is he scrupling about something? Or what are you afraid of?

The shape that was gradually becoming clear suddenly became confusing again.

Another day passed, just when we were at a loss and didn't know what to do next, the even more terrifying news came, the Taoist priest died!

The news came as a bolt from the blue for us, and the despair, fear, and unfathomable mystery enveloped us again.

It was about ten o'clock in the evening, Sister Li and I came back from my cousin's house, and when we were about to rest after washing, we suddenly received a call from Sister Li, saying that my cousin called and asked us to go over immediately, saying that something was wrong!

I was already drowsy in bed at the time, but when I received this call from Sister Li, I immediately bounced up from the bed like I had taken a stimulant, and I felt that every muscle in my body was very tense.

I wanted to ask a few more questions, but Sister Li had already hung up the phone, as if she was in a hurry.

Something went wrong? What the hell is going on, could it be that the blind man is attacking again? I immediately took out the tranquilizer gun and dagger, and my heart was beating wildly, pacing around the room with anxiety, waiting for Sister Li to pick me up.

After about ten minutes, the mobile phone rang again, and Sister Li drove downstairs to me, I hurried down and quickly got into Sister Li's car.

On the way, I couldn't wait to ask Sister Li what happened, Sister Li said that she didn't know the specifics, it was a call from my cousin, asking us to come over, saying that something important had happened, and we needed to discuss how to deal with it immediately. But he didn't say anything on the phone.

The two of us drove to my cousin's house full of doubts.

When I went to my cousin's house, I found that Yiqiē was as usual, but I felt that my cousin, Xiao Lei, and Hongmei were discussing something, and after the two of us were on the sofa, my cousin talked about the ins and outs of the whole thing.

Just now, my cousin received a very unusual phone call -- it was from the historian in Shanghai. On the phone, the professor said a shocking news: the Taoist priest is dead!

Here's the thing:

Just this morning, at about nine o'clock, a middle-aged woman suddenly came to the historian, and the middle-aged woman looked frightened.

As soon as they met, historians immediately recognized that this middle-aged woman was the nanny of the Taoist family.

The middle-aged woman handed the historian a letter and said, "This letter was written by Mr. Yang before he died, and he specially instructed me to give it to you."

When the historian heard this, he immediately asked in shock: "Do you mean to say that Mr. Yang is dead?" ”

The nanny nodded, her face pale, her lips trembled, and she said in a trembling voice, "Well, I just found out this morning." ”
