173 This time I'll pass! (Ask for subscription)
The change in Liu Chao's expression was not noticed by Song Ruyuan and others.
Or, even if they notice, they don't pay much attention.
After all, it was just a passing fourth-order casual cultivator, who would have thought that he would know those secrets.
But Su Mo had already known that this person had visited a certain ruin before.
Judging by his expression, it seemed that the slime worm had a lot to do with the ruins.
Immediately, Su Mo asked Liu Chao directly:
"You should know where these slime worms come from, right?"
Hearing this, Song Ruyuan, Yu Hongfei and the others all looked at him, their faces full of surprise.
They had just said that the slime worm was already extinct.
As a result, in the blink of an eye, someone next to me knew the origin of these slime worms.
Could it be that this high-level puppet has something to do with him?
As soon as he thought of this, the eyes of Song Ruyuan and the others became dangerous.
Sensing the treacherous atmosphere at the scene, Liu Chao couldn't help but feel a slight numbness in his scalp.
Seeing that the puppet was suppressed, he was already planning to leave.
I never thought that the expression on my face revealed the details.
It even made the Civil Security Bureau mistakenly think that it was with a puppet.
Liu Chao hurriedly gathered his thoughts, waved his hands, and explained urgently:
"I've never heard of any slime worms, I just came over to see what the doll was all about, and I didn't have any other ideas."
Su Mo listened, but he hugged his arms, and Shi Shiran smiled:
"There's a strange thing in the CAS that can identify lies, are you sure you want to go there and experiment with it?"
The expression on Song Ruyuan's face immediately became more dangerous.
Yu Hongfei and Wei Cang walked to both sides, faintly encircling Liu Chao.
Seeing this scene, Liu Chao only felt a lot of pressure.
Nima, he was just a 4th-order casual cultivator, and now there were two 5th-order and a 6th-order coming to surround him.
There was even a strong man standing on the opposite side who couldn't see the details clearly.
How could he be treated like this?
Sensing the rising aura on everyone's body, Liu Chao knew that if he didn't do something today, he was afraid that it would be difficult to pass this level.
When his face was straight, he said:
"Don't get me wrong, I really have nothing to do with this puppet, but I've heard of the slime worms used to refine dolls."
"Then you might as well tell me about it."
Song Ruyuan's tone was very calm.
The corners of Liu Chao's mouth twitched slightly, and then said:
"I once looked through an ancient book and learned a lot about slime worms.
This thing is like a mosquito, extremely tiny, and was originally used to deal with monks.
Through a special cultivation method, the slime worm is urged to enter the body of others and parasitize and grow in the flesh and blood.
Throughout its growth, it is able to shield the host's perception to a certain extent, making it undetectable.
Until it finally matures, it can control the host and turn it into a flesh puppet.
And even if someone finds it in the middle, it is as difficult to get rid of as a maggot on the tarsal bone.
Unless all the eggs hidden in the body are eliminated, they will soon grow again. ”
"It is precisely because of its concealment and harmfulness that it has caused a large-scale catastrophe in a certain era in ancient times.
Later, the alliance of the five sects developed targeted detection and extermination methods, which once made the slime bone insect almost extinct.
It wasn't until many years later that the latecomers stumbled upon the ability to use sticky bone worms to refine artifacts, making artifacts spiritual.
However, the environment at that time was no longer suitable for the growth of slime worms, and the original magic method was banned and lost, even if they worked hard to cultivate them, in the end, those slimy bones insects still gradually disappeared and turned into history. ”
After listening to Liu Chao's story, Song Ruyuan's face couldn't help but show a strange look.
Wei Cang, who was on the side, suddenly smiled:
"Even our bureau hasn't received too much information related to slime insects, seeing that you know so much about slime insects, I really suspect that you have a relationship with these puppets, otherwise how can you explain that any passer-by can know such secret information?"
Yu Hongfei on the other side also nodded and said:
"There are no such coincidences in this world."
Hearing the assertion of the two, Liu Chao suddenly became anxious.
What can I do if I am so coincidental in riding a horse?
Without waiting for him to argue, Su Mo said with a smile:
"You shouldn't have finished talking just now, right?"
Liu Chao's expression was slightly stunned.
Su Mo continued:
"Since the slime worm has long been extinct, then this puppet can't have appeared out of thin air, can you tell me where this slime worm came from?"
Song Ruyuan's eyes narrowed slightly.
Everyone's eyes were all locked on Liu Chao.
The invisible pressure only pressed his whole body to freeze.
Liu Chao was silent for a moment.
Then he looked at Song Ruyuan and asked:
"I do know the whereabouts of the slime worms, but what's the good of me telling you?"
As a suspect in making dolls, why do you even want benefits?
Wei Cang sneered, and was about to make a threat.
However, Song Ruyuan said directly:
"As long as the information you give is accurate, the transaction is negotiable."
Liu Chao clenched his fists and said in a deep voice:
"I want two Dragon Yuan Pills, three mid-level magic weapons, and ten spirit stones!"
While speaking, he stared at Song Ruyuan without blinking, his expression was very nervous, but extremely resolute.
Obviously, if the other party does not intend to agree, he is likely to stick to the message.
Song Ruyuan hesitated slightly.
It's easy to say that mid-level magic weapons and spirit stones are good, but Long Yuan Dan is only available in the provincial capital.
Without waiting for him to discuss it again, Su Mo on the side responded:
"I can agree to your terms."
The crowd couldn't help but look at him.
Liu Chao was also very surprised.
But he did not let his guard down because of this, but said directly:
"Give me the stuff first, and I'll tell you!"
Wei Cang suddenly became angry, pointed at him and said:
"Don't get too far into it!"
Liu Chao smiled instead, spread his hands and said:
"I'm all here, and the level is only 4th, what are you afraid of?
Could it be that the Civil Security Bureau, which has a good reputation in the outside world, is actually a rogue organization that likes to play tricks in transactions? ”
Hearing his words, Wei Cang became more and more angry.
But Su Mo said with a smile:
"It's up to you."
As he spoke, he directly threw out three mid-level magic weapons and ten spirit stones.
After receiving the magic weapon, although you can see at a glance that the magic weapon is simple and worn, and the quality is not good.
But Liu Chao was not too picky, and still regarded it as a treasure and carefully put it away.
Immediately, he asked in a deep voice:
"What about Long Yuandan? I wouldn't trade without Long Yuandan! ”
Su Mo smiled and said:
"Long Yuan Dan is nothing more than to use it to relieve cold toxins, although I don't have Long Yuan Dan, but I am quite sure about detoxification."
As if looking at Liu Chao with some disbelief, Song Ruyuan said in a deep voice:
"This alchemy master next to me is an alchemy master who can refine the three-grade pill, you don't have to doubt his strength.
And if the toxin is too complicated to unravel, I can also promise you to transfer Long Yuan Dan from the provincial government. ”
Liu Chao smiled stiffly and said:
"I think Director Song shouldn't lie to me, then I'll tell you the location."
"Don't think I'm just opening my mouth, what I've just asked for is nothing more than a fraction of what you're about to gain.
If it weren't for the accident that happened today, and my brother and sister really need to detoxify, I wouldn't have said it, because that place is a relic cave that has just manifested! ”
"What do you say? Ruins of the Cave House?! ”
Wei Cang was suddenly shocked.
Even Yu Hongfei and Song Ruyuan have become more important.
Among the people, only Su Mo's expression was still flat.
"Yes, it's the Ruins Cave, and the slime worm I learned about is in that cave.
To be precise, the slime insects were preserved with special crystal foils.
This is also the reason why slime worms are still used until now.
In terms of quantity, there are at least 50 mucous insects sealed.
In addition to the slime worms, there are many other treasures in that cave.
I've seen Long Yuan Dan just on the periphery, so you don't need to worry about not being able to get this thing.
But I warn you that it's very dangerous.
Not only are there all kinds of special prohibitions and traps, but the cave should have collapsed when it was born.
And from there, I vaguely sensed an extremely dangerous aura. ”
Liu Chao paused and looked at Song Ruyuan:
"To tell you the truth, I feel that breath is even more dangerous than yours."
Song Ruyuan was slightly stunned.
Wei Cang's and Yu Hongfei's expressions all became solemn.
It's not like they haven't entered the dangerous secret realm.
Just like the Heaven and Earth Great Array on Dragon Mountain before, the demon robbery hidden in it was difficult for them to deal with, and even Director Song was afraid that he would not be able to deal with it in the past.
For a while, everyone couldn't help but look at Su Mo.
Su Mo said calmly:
"I'll go over this time."
Hearing this, including Song Ruyuan, everyone had confidence.
Liu Chao no longer hesitated, and said in a deep voice:
"Then please come with me."
The group quickly followed.
Meanwhile.
Somewhere in the wilderness.
The three youthful and beautiful figures walked through the forest at great speed, and their skills were extremely vigorous.
A monkey was about to climb up a tree when suddenly someone touched his head and fell to the ground.
Seeing the monkey behind him who was stunned, Han Yingzhen's helpless voice immediately came:
"Mingyan, why do you want to scratch other monkeys when you run so well?"
"Hahaha, don't you think it's funny when it falls?"
Jiang Mingyan didn't care, and her expression was full of banter.
Xu Anqi, who followed on the other side, said quietly:
"I've heard that these monkeys in the wild are full of parasites.
Don't touch a worm. ”
Jiang Mingyan listened, and her smile couldn't help but stiffen slightly.
She reflexively glanced at her right hand.
It is still white and tender, and there is no trace of insects.
At that moment, he threatened with teeth and claws:
"If I really catch a bug, I'll stuff it in your clothes!"
"Then you'll have to catch up with me."
Xu Anqi smiled, and her speed suddenly accelerated.
"Heh, saying that you are fat and you are still panting, do you think that you have reached the 3rd order?"
As she spoke, Jiang Mingyan's footsteps suddenly accelerated, and her body was like electricity, chasing straight towards Xu Anqi.
When Han Yingzhen saw this scene, he hurriedly stepped forward and stopped him helplessly:
"Don't run around, you have to rely on concentric worms to guide you."
Xu Anqi and Jiang Mingyan were stopped by Han Yingzhen on the left and right.
Xu Anqi looked at Han Yingzhen and said with some emotion:
"It's worthy of the 4th order, it was so easy to subdue us, but the gap between the great realms is even more exaggerated than imagined."
"What can you do if people are talented?"
Jiang Mingyan said sourly:
"It's just that the two of us are still staying at the 3rd order."
Han Yingzhen was speechless and said:
"Most of my breakthrough this time relied on the power of the pill, and when you have cultivated to the peak of the 3rd order, you can easily step into the 4th order if you take the pill."
"Oh, everyone's having fun, take it seriously."
Jiang Mingyan Shi Ran said:
"Anyway, the spirit tide is coming soon, and Angel and I will definitely be able to successfully step into the 4th order, so don't be caught up by us when the time comes."
Han Yingzhen smiled slightly and said:
"Then you have to work hard, I won't stay where I am waiting for you all the time."
At this time, Xu Anqi on the side suddenly said:
"I don't know what level Brother Su has cultivated to now."
Hearing this, the atmosphere on the field suddenly fell silent.
Since the last time they left the secret realm, they have rarely been in contact with Su Mo.
On the one hand, they themselves have to work hard to cultivate and explore the secret realm.
On the other hand, I don't want to disturb people.
You can't just take some small things to trouble others at every turn.
Their pride and self-esteem do not allow them to do so.
But now they've come a long way.
After a lot of experience, he is already a qualified cultivator.
Maybe you can take this opportunity to tell others the good news?
"Don't talk about other things for the time being, maybe you can invite Brother Su on this expedition."
Han Yingzhen looked at a green beetle in his palm that was constantly flapping its wings, and said in a deep voice:
"The first few times we explored low-level exotic lands, and with the addition of teaming up with others, we hardly encountered any danger.
But this time it was different, according to the piece of jade we found, this concentric worm should be able to lead to a cave.
Judging from the records on the jade slip, that place was by no means a territory that low-level cultivators could easily set foot in.
Maybe we can go in with Brother Su this time to have a look. ”
"Anyway, let's make sure first."
Jiang Mingyan glanced at the concentric insects and said:
"First of all, we have to make sure that the cave still exists, otherwise if it has been shattered a long time ago, inviting that person over is just a joke for nothing."
"That's right, let's go first."
With a word, the three girls no longer hesitated, and continued to follow the concentric insects, heading towards the more and more remote wilderness.
Meanwhile.
Not far from here on a river embankment.
The three figures were fleeing forward at great speed.
Behind them, a group of strange dolls dressed in simple clothes.
"Horse-stepping, where the hell did these things come from?!"
Xu Sixue yelled angrily.
Zhou Jiantai, whose face was pale, said in a deep voice:
"Anyway, find a way to get rid of them first, we can't deal with so many puppets comparable to the 5th order."
Lu Zongping's voice was hurried:
"Later, I will try to use a rune treasure to expand the realm to trap them temporarily, and take advantage of this time to gather strength and get them rid of them in one go!"
Xu Sixue and Zhou Jiantai listened, and immediately nodded yes.
All three swallowed the elixir in preparation for the impending outbreak.
Lu Zongping looked at the ruins of several uninhabited houses not far away, and said in a deep voice:
"It's now!"
As he spoke, he violently urged a jade talisman to turn into a huge hemispherical light shield, covering all the puppets behind him.
At the same time, they all picked up speed and rushed towards the ruins in front of them.
But in the next second, they all disappeared into the rubble.
It's like it never happened.
