Chapter 544: The Law of Blood Feeding

"Don't worry. I've 'picked' them up. Shirakuyuki pointed to the corner of the cave, where there was a bamboo basket with a lid.

Luo Jingbo blinked: "You made the bamboo basket?"

"Of course. On the way down, I cut a few bamboos. It's not bad, right?" said Bai Yingxue with a smile.

"The bamboo has to be cut into bamboo strips before it can be woven into a bamboo basket, and then you return to the foot of Yixia Mountain and grab the three of them into the bamboo basket......" Luo Jingbo scratched his head, "How long have I been unconscious?"

"I'm a little heavier, you've been in a coma for more than half a day. ”

"But...... The three of them are very fierce to outsiders...... Haven't you been bitten?" Luo Jingbo pulled Bai Yingxue's arm and looked at it carefully.

"I didn't touch it with my hands. I just sprinkled a little bit of 'insect powder' in the basket and attracted them in. ”

When Luo Jingbo heard this, he immediately ran over to the bamboo basket and said anxiously: "Oh no! Your incense powder will make them lose their minds, I'm afraid they will already lose all three at this time!"

When he opened the lid, Luo Jingbo saw that the three centipedes had been separated by the compartment and were safe and sound. She breathed a sigh of relief.

"Afraid that they would bite through the compartment, I made a little trick to put them all into a deep sleep. If you think I'm interfering with their habits, just sprinkle this vial of powder. Bai Yingxue tossed a vial over.

"Well, now that we are on the run, it is better to be wronged to stay in the bamboo basket. Luo Jingbo closed the lid of the bamboo basket and returned to Bai Yingxue's side, "Although you can also repel insects, it is different from our Luo family's insect repellent technique." You rely on smell, we rely on sound. ”

"There is no content about the insect repellent technique in the "Poisonous Insect Sutra", and this smell insect repellent technique was painstakingly created by my master. Compared with your Luo family's skills, it's still a little troublesome. First, it is necessary to make incense powder, and second, it can only drive poisonous insects according to the trajectory of throwing incense powder. Later, Master finally discovered and bred a poisonous insect that could be driven away without the help of incense powder, and finally 'wiped out' in my hands......" As soon as she thought of the dead blood flyflies, Bai Yingxue felt heartache, that was the hard work of two generations of master and apprentice!

"You don't need to use incense powder...... How did that drive it?" Luo Jingbo was very curious.

"It's action. Blood flies are very intelligent and can guide them visually. ”

"Ah, isn't there a third way to repel insects? Your master is really amazing!" Luo Jingbo exclaimed.

"My master also discovered it by accident. Later, other insects were concocted in the same way, but nothing was found. Whether poisonous or non-toxic, only the blood flyfly can drive it like this. ”

Luo Jingbo said regretfully: "That's a pity. The toxicity of blood flies is average. However, if there are many of them, they are also a powerful force...... It takes a lot of effort to train them to understand human movements, right?"

Bai Yingxue recalled the hardships of the master and apprentice training insect swarms, especially the blood flyflies, which gathered in swarms but did not have insect heads, and she sighed: "Of course. In fact, there is another disadvantage of using incense powder to repel insects, that is, you need to be at the forefront when fighting. Master was overjoyed when he discovered that he could use his movements to drive the blood flyflies, so he has been training them how to read and obey the command of the natal weapon, so that the insect repellent can repel the worm behind the swarm. ”

"Replace the 'action' of the insect repellent with the 'action' of the weapon, your master is so smart!" Luo Jingbo said seriously, "I can also understand why he is so overjoyed, why he has paid great hardships just to be able to drive the insect swarm in the rear." Do you know the most essential difference between powder insect repellent and sound insect repellent or action insect repellent?"

Bai Yingxue was stunned for a moment, she really hadn't thought about such an esoteric question. She didn't expect a little girl to think so deeply. "I beg for advice. She said sincerely.

You may not like to hear what I say, but it's true. Strictly speaking, 'incense powder insect repellent' cannot be regarded as 'drive' at all, but 'lure'. ”

Bai Sakuyuki was stunned.

Luo Jingbo shook his head and continued: "Na, use the fragrance to lure the poisonous insect somewhere, use its natural belligerence to attack the enemy, or more extremely, use another fragrance to lure the poisonous insect to attack. All in all, it is inseparable from the word 'seduction'. Just like in the previous situation, you lure the three of them together with the incense powder, but it seems that you can't effectively stop them from killing each other, and even if you remove the fragrance, it will be difficult for you to let them go back separately. Unless, you have three other kinds of incense powder specially made for 'Poison Heavenly Dragon', 'Red Thorn', and 'Lei Gongxu', and then scatter them separately to lure them apart. In my opinion, I'm afraid it's difficult to make incense powder with such a precise effect, right? In any case, incense powder is too troublesome to repel insects. If it were me, I would only need to carry a small worm flute with me, and with a few simple whistle sounds, I would be able to complete the process of gathering them together and separating them. ”

Bai Yingxue was so impressed that she even wanted to worship Luo Jingbo as a teacher for a moment. "The sound of the flute should be different for different kinds of poisonous insects, right?" she asked.

Luo Jingbo nodded: "Different poisonous insects have different sensitive areas for tone, timbre, and rhythm. In fact, this can be extended to all kinds of poisons and even all living things. Changing the voice, tuning, and changing the tune can prompt different poisons or convey different commands. However, the range of tones, timbres, etc., is too wide, and it is indeed too difficult to drive all the poisons with just one flute. For example, some poison minks prefer a deeper tone, and the flute may be more suitable than the flute. Therefore, his brother devoted himself to research for many years, and chose five kinds of poisonous insects and five kinds of poison that were easier to drive with a flute

The beast was the main object of feeding, and perfected all kinds of driving flute songs, and wrote the book "Ten Absolute Tunes". It's not easy to drive the ten poisons, but it's still much easier than when you prepare various incense powders and balms. ”

Bai Yingxue took out the "Ten Absolute Tunes", caressed the cover, and sighed: "It turns out that "Ten Absolute Tunes" is a profound secret book of flute sound insect repellent! Brother Ling is really not simple, in my opinion, his attainments in this area are no longer inferior to Ling Zun!"

"It's to drive away 'poison', not 'worms'. Luo Jingbo corrected.

Bai Yingxue quickly flipped through the contents of the book, this book is divided into two parts, one episode each, five episodes each, that is, one episode of each poison of the "Five Insects and Five Beasts", and each episode is subdivided into many articles, corresponding to different species of a type of poison. For example, in the episode of Centipede, there are ten articles, and the first article is about "Poison Sky Dragon". There is also an entire section in each episode that does not address the exact type of poison, for use in the event of encountering certain poisons of the same type that have not been separately recorded. Each chapter is divided into several chapters, including chapters on poisonous insects, chapters on breeding, and chapters on driving and training. Often, the last few chapters of each episode are driven flute scores, which are arranged in a very orderly manner according to the subsections of feeding, driving, and commanding battles. Just looking at the scale of this record, you can imagine how much energy and effort Luo Huansheng spent on this book.

The upper part is the poisonous insect part, and the lower part is the poisonous beast part. Bai Yingxue suddenly noticed that the bamboo flute that drove poisonous insects and poisonous beasts seemed to be different. "Why is it that poisonous insects and poisonous beasts use different flutes?" she asked.

"You're very careful. That's right, the length of the flute is different, the shorter one that drives poisonous insects and the longer one that drives poisonous beasts. In addition to the difference in length, the size and position of the flute hole are also different. As I said earlier, different poisons are sensitive to the sound of the flute in different areas......"

"It's the vocal range, right?" Bai Yingxue understood what Luo Jingbo meant, and said a more precise word for her.

"Hey, yes, yes, it's the vocal range. The elder brother found that the five insects and the five beasts were more sensitive to the sound of the flute that was light and cheerful, and the mellow and soft sound, respectively, but it was difficult for the two to be unified in the range of the same bamboo flute. So my brother decided to simply separate completely, but it was not much inconvenience to bring an extra flute with him. Because my skills are still shallow, I first took the easy-to-blow piccolo and started to practice from the centipede chapter. My brother said, choose one to practice first, and then teach me how to play the flute after I have practiced all the piccolo songs of the five insects. It's a pity that my brother will never be able to teach me anymore......" Luo Jingbo said, tears falling down again.

Luo Jingbo's "practice" of flute music is not only about learning to play the flute, but also a long way from being able to play music to being able to drive poisonous insects with flute music. Bai Yingxue would have played a few simple flute songs, and I believe it shouldn't take long to learn the flute music of insect repellent. But she knew that she would definitely not be able to successfully repel poisonous insects just after learning flute music.

Seeing that Luo Jingbo remembered the sad thing again, Bai Yingxue hurriedly diverted her thoughts: "As far as I know, the shorter bamboo flute has a name, called 'Bangdi', and the longer flute is called 'Qudi'. There are many people in the world who love to play the flute, and there are also many masters of 'bang' and 'qu', if they learn it, it should be easier, right?"

"Some things are about talent. According to Daddy's words, it is to 'have a heart' with poison. My brother also once said that wind skills are only a form of auxiliary, and the real connotation is not in the flute, let alone the score, but in the hearts of people. Luo Jingbo said one by one, "But I haven't understood it all the time." My brother also gave me an analogy at that time, some people played the flute to the earth, but the poison just didn't move, and some people played the flute so badly that the poison loved to listen to it. It's hard to find a reason for this kind of thing, but to put it simply, it's just two wordsβ€”"

"Talent!" Bai Yingxue said in unison with her.

Bai Yingxue shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Although I am entrusted by Brother Ling, I don't know if I have any talent." In case I can't, it's up to you to continue to forge the path of detoxification in the future. ”

"Don't worry, my brother won't be wrong. Luo Jingbo comforted, "You are also like me, choose one to practice first." The upper part of my practice, I think you can practice the lower part, so that you can cooperate with each other when you avenge your brother. At that time, we will have a 'Bang Flute' and 'Qu Di' to have a 'Bang Qu and Ming', and that will be very powerful! The five insects and five beasts in "Ten Absolute Tunes" have never fought together! Ten kinds of poisons poured out of the nest, killing those two groups of wicked people without leaving a single piece of armor!" The more she spoke, the more excited she became, waving her little fists again and again.

Bai Yingxue asked in confusion: "Huh, the five insects and five beasts have never fought together, why, even your brother is not proficient in the "Ten Absolute Tunes"?"

"My brother is a writer, how can he not be proficient? But it's impossible for one person to drive ten poisons, so I'll show you. Luo Jingbo picked up two branches, one short and one long, from the ground and put them to his lips, "Look, even if you have a 'Bang Flute' and a 'Qu Flute', you can't play two flutes at the same time, and you can't even use your fingers! If you want to drive ten kinds of poisons, you can only blow one and then change it, which is not troublesome enough." Moreover, once the flute music stops, the effect of insect repellent disappears, and it is very unwise to change the flute during battle. Therefore, my brother has always attacked poisonous insects that are easy to gather, and defended by several poisonous beasts, and the division of labor between the five insects and the five beasts is clear.

"I see. No wonder the courtyard of the bamboo house is full of the corpses of poisonous insects, and the poisonous beasts are all gathered in the bamboo house!" Bai Yingxue flipped through the lower part of "Ten Absolute Tunes" again. When she turned to the last page, she unexpectedly caught a glimpse of a small piece of small print, so she looked at it carefully:

"I have been living in seclusion in Yixia Mountain with my sister for a long time, and I have bred countless poisons in the surrounding mountains, but I don't want to invite misfortune and be coveted by treacherous people. I am single-handed

Thin, I am afraid that my life will not be long, and my sister Jingbo has low skills and cannot take revenge. So I wrote down this and wanted to hide the two secret books written by my father and me here, and if they were discovered by those who were destined in the future, they could practice according to the flute music. Those who have completed the cultivation can go to the cave of Xiulin Mountain, which contains many poisons carefully selected by my father and me to drive away, and hope to avenge me. If you do not succeed in cultivation, you must bury these two books forever. The great grace is not grateful, and Luo Huansheng respects. ”

Bai Yingxue frowned, this passage was obviously written recently, and it can be regarded as Luo Wansheng's "last words". It seems that he originally wanted to hide the two books somewhere, but it was because of the sudden appearance of Bai Sakuraxue that he decided to entrust the two books to each other. This passage made Bai Yingxue discover a strange place, Luo Huansheng desperately sent Luo Jingbo down Yixia Mountain, definitely didn't want her to go back, since the two books are the life's work of Luo Shiran and Luo Wansheng's father and son, why not entrust the two books to Luo Jingbo? The "last words" also said at the end, "If you don't succeed in cultivation, you must bury these two books forever", which is too strange.

"Xiaobo, have you ever heard of 'Xiulin Mountain'?" Bai Yingxue asked tentatively.

"I haven't heard of it. What, is my sister going there?" Luo Jingbo was very curious. As long as it doesn't involve the skill of drug repellent, she will return to her naΓ―ve nature.

"No, I just suddenly forgot where I had heard the name of the mountain. Bai Yingxue smiled. "Luo's father and son even hid the matter of Xiulin Mountain from Luo Jingbo, why on earth?" she thought to herself, "Since the 'last words' said that the 'second book will be buried forever', then the answer should be found from the book." So, Bai Yingxue set her sights on the "Poisonous Insect Sutra". She was already familiar with the fragments handed down by the Master. The important thing to check is what you haven't seen.

When turning to the back part of the "Poisonous Insect Sutra", the shocking four words at the top of a certain page jumped into Bai Yingxue's eyes: "The method of blood feeding"! Judging from her many years of experience in raising poisonous insects, the words "blood" and "feeding" appear together, which must be very dangerous. She settled down and continued to read the chapter. The first few paragraphs read:

"The reason why poisonous insects are 'poisonous' is because they are human. The ultimate purpose of driving poisonous insects is also to attack people. Therefore, how to make the poison of poisonous insects more 'poisonous' is the primary task of a breeder. Although the best environment for poisonous insects to grow is natural, it does not mean that breeders have nothing to do. In my previous concept, the selection of the environment and the transformation of details are the first priority, and feeding is a taboo that affects the habits of poisonous insects. However, if it affects the habits of poisonous insects, it will make them more toxic, so why not do it? 'Feeding' itself is the act of making it stronger by feeding. However, for poisonous insects, most feeding will reduce their fighting spirit and toxicity, and it is not possible. The only way to do this is to feed it with blood.

Blood feeding can be divided into several types and listed in each order.

First, the flesh of the dead beast. This meat is no different from ordinary meat and should be discarded.

Second, the flesh of living beasts. It can mention the fighting spirit of some poisonous insects, but long-term feeding of insects will dilute their toxicity and the effect is not good.

Third, the blood of living beasts. Beast blood has a difference between hot and cold, and it is more fishy, and most poisonous insects do not like it.

Fourth, the flesh of the dead. When a person dies, blood clots, and its effect is average. Those who have died for a long time carry corpse poison and must not be fed.

Fifth, the flesh of the living. It should be able to enhance toxicity, but it is a thing that hurts nature and reason, and it should not be done.

Sixth, the blood of the living. Collecting blood can not hurt people's lives, it can be. Blood gas can not only enhance the belligerence of poisonous insects, but also enhance their toxicity after long-term feeding. However, blood is also different from person to person, and exchange transfusion is less effective. Therefore, it is best to feed the insects with the blood of the same person for a long time, and direct biting is preferable when supplying blood. ”

These paragraphs of content are terrifying to see Bai Sakura. In Luo Shiran's "enumeration in stages," this "time" originally referred to several forms of viciousness in the "method of blood feeding"! Fortunately, in the paragraph "The Flesh of the Living," Luo Shiran noted that "it is a thing that hurts heaven and reason, and cannot be done," indicating that he has not yet lost his humanity.

"It seems that the poisons in the caves of Xiulin Mountain have all been cultivated by the 'blood feeding method'. The reason why she hid it from Luo Jingbo may be that she was worried and scared. Bai Yingxue guessed in her heart. Suddenly, she suddenly realized again, and hurriedly began to look at "Ten Absolute Tunes" again.

This time, she flipped through it quickly, looking for the word "blood feeding" in many handwritings.
