Chapter 272: Leave it to me
"Why are you looking at us like that?"
"It's just a coincidence, we're all human beings, don't believe it!"
The people who were watching were furious in their hearts and said one after another.
Li Zhen stood up and said, "All fellow Daoists are coming back with us, don't be suspicious and make trouble!"
He is not in a hurry to find out the truth, but to reassure people's hearts.
"I remember, the corpses who attacked those scattered cultivators before seemed to be similar to their own appearance! Elder Qi had instructed him to keep an eye on them secretly. ”
Suddenly, someone remembered something and exclaimed.
Li Zhen said: "Are there any scattered cultivators who were attacked before, they are all here, I want to ask." ”
The people in the chamber of commerce immediately followed their words and brought a few loose cultivators over.
"It's true that there was such a thing, and we were suspicious of each other at the time, but then we found out that it was those monsters who played the trick, and we were relieved......"
Several casual cultivators learned of the cause and effect and explained.
"There is no need for everyone to panic, this is just a change method for those black devils, similar in appearance, just to confuse us and others!"
"Is it just a means of confusion?"
This can be regarded as an explanation that conforms to the logic of the immortal cultivation world, but Li Zhen has a somewhat different opinion.
"When you came back, what did you do besides recuperate normally?"
Li ...... What does Master Li mean by that?"
"Do you doubt that we brought these monsters in?"
There was obvious resistance.
Li Zhen shook his head: "This is not a question, but for your own good, if I am not mistaken, several of you have been weak since you came back, and you have not improved." ”
"How do you know?" blurted out one of them, and even when he saw it, the others looked surprised.
"When we came back, we did feel a little unwell, but we found some medicine to take and it was fine. ”
"Is it really okay?"
Li Zhen sighed.
"You guys are too careless, Elder Qi and I are also careless......
How does he know?
Smell it, of course!
The talent of smelling incense and reading people gave him an extremely keen perception, even things that ordinary people's divine senses could not explore, they could be clear.
However, those things were indeed hidden deeply, and there were many chaotic smells along the way, and they were temporarily blinded.
Fortunately, it's not too late.
He forcibly grabbed the wrist of one of the people next to him and pulled up the sleeve of his shirt.
Immediately, the fragrance of the wonderful incense was urged, and the fragrance of tea turnips passed.
"Look, what is this?"
Everyone looked at the man's arm, but it didn't matter, and they all frowned.
What kind of arm is this, it has long been riddled with holes, festering and swollen.
Sarcomas the size of a bull's eye grow on it, and the vicinity is littered with sores and mold, giving off a disgusting and unpleasant smell.
But what really makes the scalp tingle is that among those sarcomas, one after another fat worm-like things shrink into a ball, and they are actually living beings with life vitality, living in translucent cell robes.
"Ah, this ......"
Sanxiu himself was also stunned, and thanks to his rich experience, he was replaced by ordinary ordinary people, but he was afraid that he would faint immediately from fright.
"One, two, three, four, five......"
Li Zhen quickly counted and found that there were five sarcomas growing on just one arm, and there were five freaks.
"I see, those corpses who thought they were provoked from outside......" Han Kang's face was solemn, "I'm afraid it's the growth of the sarcoma that fell from their own bodies!"
The culled flesh fell to the ground, but it was actually a seed, which could be "planted" into a humanoid body in just one night, and then tracked down by the living qi machine.
This is the truth behind the monster chasing from the island and attacking here!
When everyone heard this, they gasped, as if they wanted to clean the air here.
"Could it be that we saw the corpse mountain grow like this before?"
"The corpses...... In fact, it is all the flesh and blood of the living people......"
This is already a new life form, with the ability to reproduce spores, and the ability to steal flesh and blood like a parasite and transform itself.
Take the human body as the mother's body, steal life information, and reproduce and evolve.
Unconsciously, there are more than 100 million dependents.
This is both an umbrella and a material for alchemy.
If it is allowed to develop, sooner or later it will flood the entire island, and it is not surprising that it will create an army of tens of billions.
Li Zhen said: "This is also a monk's flesh and blood essence is strong, in exchange for mortals, dropping a sarcoma is like giving birth once, and it has already lost both qi and blood." ”
"No wonder we feel very weak, we thought we had just escaped death, and it would be good ......to rest for a while" Everyone hurriedly checked each other, but strangely, they couldn't see anything strange about each other.
"What's going on, we can't see ......"
"Of course not, because your own spirit shields your senses, and it's the same principle as stinking from your own stench!"
Li Zhen once again urged the tea turnip fragrance and sprinkled it all around.
"Ah, I see!"
After inhaling enough tea aroma, everyone indulged in this strange fragrance, and finally began to notice.
This alien thing completely relied on the paralyzing spirit to survive the weak embryonic period, and it did not have the slightest combat power of its own, and it was quickly wiped out.
Those people in the casual cultivators and chambers of commerce have the determination to debone and cut the meat, and even if they are occasionally afraid of pain, others will help them.
They don't want to be attacked by parasites born on people nearby while they are meditating at night.
Some of them have sarcomas that grow on their bodies, backs, and unlucky eggs on their buttocks, but at the moment, their faces are small, and the hidden dangers are solved, so they all go to the corner and peel off their essence and solve it on the spot.
Seeing this, Li Zhen did not skimp on the tea and turnip in his hand, and asked the people in the chamber of commerce to bring the spare medicine that was retained and use it together.
Seeing this, Han Kang sighed secretly: "It's a pity that most of them are stored in Elder Qi's small cave. ”
Those tea incense fragrances were only afraid that they would be scattered in the chaotic void with his death, until many years later, when they accidentally connected with a naturally generated cave secret realm, and they could see the light of day again.
It may be ten years from now, a hundred years from now, maybe thousands, or even billions of years, and it will be an adventure for others.
Although they are materials that are in short supply at the moment, they are not worth the trouble to find them, because the cost is too high, and they can only be cheapened by the destined people of future generations.
This time, thanks to the presence of Li Zhen, otherwise everyone on the ship, except for Han Kang and others in the Foundation Building Realm, who could detect the signs with their strong spirits, and protect themselves with mana and secret treasures, everyone else would probably be entangled to death by these parasitic monsters, and it would be difficult to extricate themselves.
Temporarily solved the trouble in front of him, Li Zhen was still not at ease, so he summoned everyone and distributed the only remaining tea and turnip in his hand.
"These things were to be sprinkled at the entrance and exit of the cabin, and a separate room was found, and incense was burned and fumigated for isolation, but any other new boarders were to enter and be examined by more than one of the foundation-building monks. ”
"Understood. The two chamber of commerce stewards hurriedly responded.
Li Zhen glanced at Han Kang, who understood, and after dispersing, he came back to meet him in the secret room.
"Li Daoyou, you say, my master respects...... Could my master not be dead?"
It's easy to talk to smart people, and he obviously thinks about it.
Those strange insects are small, but Shi Jizi itself is big.
If he really mastered this kind of arbitrary parasitic means, hidden in someone's body, quietly growing and developing, and waiting for a certain time to burst out, it would be an extremely terrible thing.
Those mortals and low-level cultivators in the outside world couldn't stop it at all.
And when he devours enough flesh and blood essence, he will probably be able to reforge his body and recover again.
This is the so-called immortality!
However, Li Zhen pondered for a moment and denied this speculation.
"Your master's spirit is extinct!"
He was in a dream, crossing the boundary between fiction and reality to kill the other party.
God descended here and cut off the heart, but directly erased it from the level of the soul.
Even if Shi Jizi incarnated in thousands of people, he definitely didn't have such a high level of divine soul cultivation to support it, so Li Ji was very sure that he had already killed him.
"But ......"
While he was convinced of this, he couldn't help but hesitate.
"It's possible that his body isn't dead!"
Han Kang was surprised: "What do you mean ......?"
Li Zhen said: "You should have guessed that he has transformed himself into an inhuman existence, originally thought that the human face tree was his body, but now it seems that the human face tree, like the living corpses and strange insects seen before, is just a few offspring, which can reproduce infinitely......
His true body should be the entire island, integrated into the Spirit Vein Spring!
He had already combined himself with the entire Spirit Peak Blessed Land and turned into an earth!"
Han Kang frowned, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Li Zhen said: "The human body is indeed too fragile, relatively speaking, it is the body of other living beings, but even those powerful species who are born with a Dao body, the physical body always has a limit, and only by transcending the mortal body, evolving heaven and earth, and being true with the Dao, can it be immortal and immortal......
In a sense, he can be regarded as walking on the path of merging the path and refining the truth, but the difference is that he has not been able to achieve the spiritual level out of the body, and he cannot truly combine with heaven and earth.
But his life, his essence and flesh and blood, can all be reproduced, and even endlessly!"
A cancerous cell may continue to multiply and survive forever if it is cultivated under suitable cultivation conditions.
Even if the original mother dies and the meaning of being a human being disappears completely, it can still leave its mark on this heaven and earth.
This is also a disguised method of immortality and immortality.
Shi Jizi's pursuit, of course, is not so simple.
He also prepared a high-level species like the Human Face Tree and an incarnation for himself to control, and was ready to continue to survive in other forms, and even rely on the orthodox cultivation method to form a true pill, and then restore the origin by cultivating the supernatural power of reversal.
Over time, maybe you will be able to open up a small hole in your own body and absorb the vitality of heaven and earth in the inner scene.
And when the Yuan Infant is achieved, it will become even more terrifying to be able to go out of the body.
Fortunately, he killed his spiritual will and stopped his plot.
"Now it seems that even I can't solve the matter completely. ”
Li Zhen had to admit that he couldn't do anything about this level of immortality.
Han Kang said: "You can't help it?"
Li Zhen said: "I was discussing with the monk elders before, how to wash the ground and purify the entire island, now it seems that this island is Shi Jizi, Shi Jizi is this island, except to use the big array to suppress it and seal it here, there is no other good way." ”
Han Kang said: "Isn't it okay to spread tea and turnips?"
Li Zhen said: "Of course not, even if the entire Jixiang Sect is sold, it will not be enough to make up the cost of refining so many tea and turnips." ”
Han Kang said: "We can start from the source and lay this thing in the spiritual vein spring......
Li Zhen thought about it, this may really be a solution.
In addition, you can also try to improve this incense so that it has another growth form of its own soil Tai Sui, suppressing the growth of stone spores.
But in any case, huge costs are inevitable and may not be beneficial.
He euphemistically: "Relief is also a solution ......"
Han Kang shook his head: "As long as there is no peace here, someone will point to it one day, saying that it is a scourge caused by my master, and those monsters are all changed by him."
But we can't argue with that, because that's exactly what happened......"
Li Zhen: "......"
Without waiting for Li Zhen's persuasion, Han Kang himself was relieved, and said with a forced smile: "Forget it, let's do what you say for the time being, Li Daoyou, you can rest assured, I won't deny it because of this." ”
After that, Han Kang left, and Li Zhen contacted Elder Shang again, informing the other party of what had just happened, along with his own discussion with Han Kang.
At this time, he finally made up his mind.
"Elder Shang, leave this matter to me. ”
Elder Shang was surprised: "You agreed?"
Li Zhen said: "I won't hide it from you, I am quite interested in the things on this island, but at the same time, I am also worried that it will fall into the hands of others, and it will cause disaster again!"
Now it seems that it is up to me to bear the burden to avoid those troubles.
But I also have a condition, all those who know must issue a gag order to keep this secret, if you want to share the results, you must not dispose of anything that flows out of this room without authorization, and you must wait patiently for the results of my research......."
After all, he decided that Haosheng would use his identity as an authoritative expert to gain the initiative.
Elder Shang said happily, "We can rest assured that this island will be handed over to you. ”
The "we" in her mouth naturally refers to the parties involved in this matter, even including the Moon Sword Immortal.
Then he asked, "But what are you going to do, can you give me a thorough understanding first?"
handed over to Li Zhen, it is not said that the transfer of ownership is a complete matter, he must have this ability and ability in order to be recognized by all parties.
Therefore, Li Zhen's next plan is related to the support of all parties for him.
Li Zhen naturally knew this, and he groaned slightly, and said: "This place should be closed down and prevention and control should be the mainstay, but according to my guess, the earth's veins are uneven, disasters are continuous, and the offspring of Shi Jizi will continue to reproduce and regenerate......
Instead, we turned it into a fixed secret place, which is open regularly, and invites casual cultivators to kill monsters and remove pollution!
If all goes well, maybe we can harvest some local specialties regularly to supplement the cost of the closure of the town......"
