Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Appearance of the Blood Extinguishing Worm
The quiet courtyard, the dark old house, in the glorious years of the unknown years, accompanied the owner for the rest of his life.
The silent man and the sword quietly confronted and searched, feeling what kind of mystery the owner of the small courtyard who could only write the pain into a book in the end left behind the latecomers in the last days of his life.
Suddenly, someone broke into the courtyard, breaking the silence.
"Senior brother, something happened!"
"What?"
Dugu Hexuan held a black sword and stood quietly at the door of the study. It was as if he was having a long conversation with an old friend, forgetting what was happening around him.
"Brother Ji, they"
"Oh!" Dugu Hexuan picked up the long sword, looking very struggling, and the speed of turning around was even slower. When he saw the three bloody people, his brows furrowed slightly, and he stopped talking. After approaching and checking, I was very surprised "Huh", and my eyes were full of confusion.
"Just discovered?"
Lin Dong replied, "Yes!"
"It's so strange! How could the Blood Quenching Worm appear here? It seems that it has undergone bloodline mutation!"
Dugu Hexuan pondered for a moment, took out an incense burner and a blue petal, kneaded the petals into powder, and put them in the incense burner. With his right hand, he pinched the trick and poured a pure spiritual power into the incense burner. After a while, blue smoke rose from the incense burner, wrapping around the heads of Ji Ning, Qin Guan, and Liu Ming.
A moment later, small bright red caterpillars appeared in the blue smoke, and "swam" into the incense burner in the direction of the smoke. Gradually, the blue smoke from the incense burner began to redden. The blood on Ji Ning and the other three gradually disappeared and slowly returned to a normal situation.
It wasn't until the bright red caterpillars no longer appeared in the blue smoke that Dugu Hexuan stopped casting. The right hand changed from the tip to the palm and gently pressed it towards the incense burner, and the reddened smoke suddenly returned to the incense burner. The incense burner was restored to its original state.
"The three of them are fine, and they will recover after a few days of rest. Dugu Hexuan instructed, "Senior Brother Lin, after feeding these three elixirs, find someone to take care of the three junior brothers." ”
Lin Dong promised. But the others just looked at Dugu Hexuan quietly, and a strange atmosphere quietly formed.
Dugu Hexuan glanced at everyone and asked, "What kind of eyes are these?"
"Yes!" Gan Dan responded softly, but looked at Ji Rong mysteriously, with a smile between his eyebrows.
"Brother Gan, what's the matter?"
"Toad!" Gan Dan blurted out, suddenly feeling that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Eh, Brother Dugu, you have to go and see for yourself." ”
Dugu Hexuan frowned and looked at Qiu Xu.
Qiu Yu hesitated for a moment before he said: "Senior Brother seems to have evil spirits in the city, which has caused many people to contract strange diseases. The evil person softens his whole body, and his body is like a toad. ”
"Is there such a thing?" Dugu Hexuan said with a little anger, "It's rare to have a quiet place to improve everyone's strength, how could such a strange thing happen." Are there any other signs before that?"
Gu Jia said bluntly: "Yes, the people who have taken your elixir have all become toads. ”
"Oh, people who don't take it, are you okay?"
"yes! We don't want to stand in front of you!"
"Those five elixirs are just ordinary elixirs, and their main effect is to dredge the meridians and resolve the effect of channeling different spiritual power to the body. How could the situation you said could happen?" Dugu Hexuan took out five spirit pills, pondered for a moment, and said, "If you don't believe it, you can try it yourself." Everyone was silent, and they all looked at each other with mysterious eyes.
Ji Rong said: "I'll try!"
Dugu Hexuan nodded, gave him the elixir, and said, "Before the incident, were there any other signs or visions?"
No one responded. But these smart people have already understood that Dugu Hexuan has already won this game, but he wants to be a scoundrel and does not admit that he did it himself.
Just imagine, is it possible to refine so many elixirs in such a short period of time? Of course, it is absolutely impossible! If there is one possibility, it can only be the preparation of "poison." Obviously, Dugu Hexuan has all the conditions.
"Let's go, let's take a look!" Dugu Hexuan said in a deep voice, "These things you gave me are really a headache. What can I do in the future?"
Dugu Hexuan sighed at life, but some people who saw the truth couldn't cry or laugh. However, these people still know that Dugu Hexuan's ability to play a scoundrel is very good. Therefore, the thinking of this group of smart people quickly changed, and the next thing to cooperate with Dugu Hexuan to stage a play was without any obstacles, and it came naturally.
After carefully examining a few people lying on the ground, Dugu Hexuan said to himself: "This seems to be an ancient curse, it seems to come from the demon clan, and it seems to come from the barbarian race. It's just that there is a mysterious power in this castle that weakens the power of the curse. It was only these people who survived with great difficulty. What a blessing!"
Everyone followed Dugu Hexuan to the square, and Dugu Hexuan quickly focused his attention on the deep pit, and said in a deep voice: "Could it be, is it?"
After a while, Dugu Hexuan took out a Xuanqing Dadan furnace from the Ruyi bag, put it on the deep pit, lit the fire of hardware, and began to boil the medicine. In less than an hour, the medicinal soup in the furnace was just boiling, and Dugu Hexuan extinguished the fire and commanded: "This is the soul soup." Quickly serve everyone with one spoonful per person. ”
Qiu Yu and the others knew in their hearts that they couldn't say it, so they had to act quickly and do what they were told.
Gan Dan received the decoction, quickly followed Ji Rong, and saw that he was far away from Dugu Hexuan, and said in a low voice: "Brother Ji, how is it?"
Ji Rong smiled rarely, and said, "It turns out that when Brother Dugu was silent on the edge of the pit at that time, he had already thought about how to fulfill this lie. However, with his success, all this will seem meaningless. ”
"Yes, he not only thought of fooling us, but also thought of how to play scoundrels in his sect in the future. Gan Dan grinned and said, "Brother Ji, to be honest, do you think he is a big scoundrel?"
Ji Rong glanced at Gan Dan very calmly, smiled suddenly, didn't answer, just walked away silently. Gan Dan also squinted and smiled, and quickly followed. Ji Rong suddenly stopped again, stared at Gan Dan, and said meaningfully: "Brother Gan, don't be cautious in front of him in the future." ”
Gan Dan was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, and said in a low voice: "Thank you for reminding me!"
For ten days, although the others had doubts, they chose to remain silent. Among the people who spoke out, Ji Rong was righteous, Gu Jia was upright, Song Wu was rational, and only Gan Dan seemed to be the most thoughtful. ”
"He was the first to think about leaving. It can be seen that only he is a truly normal person. Dugu Hexuan paused for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Second child, it can be seen from this that the third and the four of them are not as good as Huang Shu, Ji Rong and other six. In the future, you and I will help them and let them grow up as soon as possible. ”
After the others left, only Dugu Hexuan and Qiu Yu were left on the edge of the pit.
Qiu Yu never expected that Dugu Hexuan would talk about it. He regretted his private opinion, and he realized that in Dugu Hexuan's position, it was not a certain person or a small group that needed to be considered at all, but the overall situation.
Dugu Hexuan suddenly asked again: "Why don't you see the big gray and the big green cow?"
"I also remember that after entering the city, the senior brother released all the little black. But then, no one seems to have talked about it. Qiu Yu was a little confused, and thought: "There is a place in the city where there is a small hill with a strange shape. No one has been there, could it be there?"
"It must be!" Dugu Hexuan said, "I'll go first." When you wait for the people to recover, let them come there too, I have something to say. ”
Dugu Hexuan followed Qiu Xu's instructions and walked quickly to the southeast corner of the castle. There is indeed a small hill here, about 36 zhang 5 feet high, and about 24 zhang in diameter. It was covered with all kinds of gray sharp stones, like a cluster of arrows. Little black wolves, big gray sheep, big green cows, etc. lie around the mountain bag, looking very enjoyable.
Dugu Hexuan approached, and gently patted a sharp stone with his palm, but the voice of Jin Tie sounded, his heart moved, and he suddenly looked back at the square, and blurted out: "The golden cicada is out of its shell, and it is true to be fake?"
A complete story gradually formed in his mind, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile, and he said in his heart: It turns out that the demon clan power who is guarding here has been deceived.
About three hours later, Qiu Yu and the others gathered here one after another. In the past, those who were "evil" seem to have hidden an abnormality under normality. They seem to have the power of a tiger and wolf that can erupt at any time.
Some people showed doubts and doubts, and some people were very flat.
These people, who have long put life and death aside, naturally understand the truth of "a creation, a catastrophe". As long as we survive and get enlightenment, what else is worth pursuing? If so, probably not now!
Dugu Hexuan ordered that according to the current team division, each team will take turns for an hour, day and night, to chisel this mountain bag as quickly as possible. Then, he took out many tools from the box and let Qiu Yu lead the people to lead them. He drove away the big green cows.
The little black wolf and the others walked away reluctantly, but they were not far away, guarding the side. It seems that there is a fatal attraction of the treasure there.
Qiu Xi's men and horses went up first, surrounded the mountain bag, and soon, the sound of "bang" resounded and resounded in the sky.
Dugu Hexuan walked away quietly and returned to the square. Here, there is a thin teenager who looks at the crowd with some blankness. He is Huang Shu.
"Are they all okay?" Dugu Hexuan said with a smile, "Leading them is far more difficult than leading a Terran monk. So far, you're doing a great job. ”
Huang Shu replied: "Brother Dugu, they are all very good. However, the group of boys and girls who were taken in in this castle behaved strangely, and it seemed that they were neither barbarians nor humans. ”
"It's the demon clan!" Dugu Hexuan said, "There are barbarians and human clans over there, and demon clans over here." Brother Huang, did you notice anything wrong?"
"You mean, they were all abandoned?" Huang Shu reacted extremely quickly, and immediately understood what Dugu Hexuan meant.
"Yes, I guess that's true!"
"Brother Dugu, with all due respect, have you prepared for organizing a team of demon and barbarian clans in the future after discovering some clues?"
"I'm just an ordinary mortal! Sometimes, I think that there are many, many hard things in the world, but somebody has to do them. Only when you do it will you know how difficult it is. Brother Huang, are you right?"
