Chapter 170: Brain-Eating Demon Worm
The scene in front of him really frightened Yu Wenjun, and he only felt a burst of creepy and shuddered.
"This ...... This corpse ...... It will move!" Yu Wenjun said with his lips trembling and stammering.
He is also an old man, but when he saw a corpse that had been dead for an unknown amount of time and had long been decomposed, he was actually moving, and a cold air immediately rushed up from his backbone and tail vertebrae, which simply subverted his worldview.
"Is there really a ghost in this world?" Yu Wenjun said in horror.
Ning Xiaotang looked indifferent, calmly looked at the corpse on the edge of the courtyard well, and said lightly: "It's not a ghost, it's a bug." ”
If it was the first time he saw this scene, Ning Xiaotang might also think about ghosts, zombies and the like. But in Yujia Village, he had seen the strange methods of the corpse-raising sect using corpse repellent insects to control corpses.
So at this moment, his first thought was that there were corpse-raising sectarians who were playing ghosts.
"Bugs?" Yu Wenjun looked at Ning Xiaotang in amazement.
Ning Xiaotang nodded and said, "That's right, there are bugs in the corpse, and someone is using bugs to control the corpse." ”
"Someone is using bugs to control corpses?" Hearing this explanation, Yu Wenjun couldn't help but be stunned.
Immediately afterward, an angry look appeared on his face.
Thinking that he was one of the six great thieves of Baling, he could be regarded as the number one person in this Jingzhou martial arts, but he was scared and trembling with insects. If this gets out, will he still have the face to see people?
"So, someone is scaring us?" Yu Wenjun said with some anger.
Ning Xiaotang didn't answer, he squinted his eyes, suddenly turned his head, looked at one of the dilapidated rooms, and snorted coldly and said, "Are you coming out by yourself?" Or will I go and get you out?"
Hearing this, Yu Wenjun immediately looked at the dilapidated house.
A gust of evening breeze blew, and a tattered strip of cloth under the eaves fluttered left and right, faintly tinged with a faint desolation.
However, the dilapidated room was still silent, and it didn't seem like a human being.
Yu Wenjun glanced at Ning Xiaotang with some confusion.
"Hmph. Ning Xiaotang didn't say anything more, directly raised his right hand, stretched out a finger, and pointed at the dilapidated room.
"Huh~~"
A powerful aura suddenly shot out from Ning Xiaotang's fingertips, carrying terrifying power, directly into the dilapidated house.
"Boom~~"
There was a loud bang from the dilapidated room, and I don't know what it shattered, and countless dust drifted out of it.
Immediately after, a hoarse cough rang out from the dilapidated room.
"Ahem~~ Your Excellency has such profound skills, and you have been taught by the old body. ”
With this voice, in the dust, a slender figure slowly walked out.
"Is there really someone hiding there?" Yu Wenjun couldn't help but be stunned as he watched someone come out of the dilapidated house.
Ning Xiaotang looked calm and said, "That corpse on the edge of the well, you are playing ghosts, right?
The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and the slender figure slowly appeared.
It was a silver-haired old woman with a very strange appearance, the left side of her face was full of wrinkles, but the skin on the right side of her face was very well maintained, and she looked like the complexion of a middle-aged woman in her forties.
The huge contrast between the left and right sides of the face is really weird.
The old woman said slowly: "Your Excellency, it seems that you should have made a mistake, the old body is not a disciple of the corpse raising sect. ”
"You're not from the Corpse Raising Sect?" Ning Xiaotang frowned, then snorted coldly and said, "I don't care if you are a member of the Corpse Raising Sect, at least the corpse on the edge of the well is that you are using corpse repellent insects to control it." ”
The old woman said again: "Your Excellency, you are wrong again. The reason why the corpse on the edge of the well moved was indeed because of the insects. However, it wasn't the old body that was controlling the bug. ”
Ning Xiaotang said: "It's not you, do you think I will believe it? Nearby, you are the only one hiding in this room." Who else but you are going to control those corpse repellent worms?"
The old woman did not explain directly, but said: "Your Excellency not only knows about the corpse raising faction, but also knows about the corpse repellents of the corpse raising faction, it seems that your Excellency is not ignorant of the matter of the corpse raising faction. Just Your Excellency, do you know where the corpse repellent came from?"
Ning Xiaotang said lightly: "I'm not interested in knowing." ”
The old woman was not annoyed, and explained to herself: "The corpse repellent insect is a kind of insect that has been domesticated artificially, and the wildness and harm are greatly reduced. In this way, those people of the corpse raising sect can effectively control those corpse repellent insects. ”
"Before it was domesticated, the corpse repellent was called the Brain Eater, a strange insect that specialized in eating human brains. They even attack living people in order to eat human brains. ”
"In addition, these brain-eating demon insects also like to nest on human corpses. Just like the corpse on the edge of the well, inside the corpse is the brain-eating demon worm. ”
"Brain-eating demon worm?" Hearing this, Ning Xiaotang was shocked, he didn't expect that there were such strange insects in the world.
He glanced at the old woman and said, "How do you know so clearly? Or rather, you are actually a member of the corpse cultivators." ”
"Uh......" The old woman was speechless for a while, she didn't expect to say so much, and in the end, she made herself more like a disciple of the corpse raising faction.
But at this moment, Yu Wenjun, who had been silent beside him, suddenly spoke: "Excuse me, are you the Qiu senior of the Water Moon Sect?"
Hearing this, the old woman suddenly looked at Yu Wenjun in surprise and said, "Hey, do you know me?"
Yu Wenjun's eyes lit up, and he said: "It seems that you are really a senior Qiu, more than ten years ago, senior Qiu came to the village of my six thieves in Baling, I saw you at that time, I am one of the six thieves, that white-faced Langjun." ”
After recalling for a moment, the old woman suddenly said: "It turned out to be you, I remember that you were still a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy back then, it seems that your surname is Yuwen?"
"Yes, that's right, my surname is Yuwen, my name is Yuwenjun, I can't imagine that Senior Qiu still remembers me. Yu Wenjun smiled and said, "Senior Qiu, in fact, I wanted to come forward to recognize each other before, but how did your left face become like this? If it weren't for the fact that your right face was still the same as before, I really wouldn't dare to come forward to recognize each other." ”
Hearing Yu Wenjun mention her face, the old woman was slightly embarrassed, and sighed: "Hey, don't say it, there is something wrong with the practice, so I have become this ghost." ”
At this time, Ning Xiaotang glanced at Yu Wenjun, frowned, and said, "She is really from the Water Moon Sect?"
Yu Wenjun nodded and said, "My lord, Senior Qiu is indeed from the Water Moon Sect, and she is the Supreme Elder of the Water Moon Sect. ”
After confirming that the old woman was not a member of the corpse raising faction, Ning Xiaotang was no longer aggressive.
"Elder Qiu, I don't know why you came here?" Ning Xiaotang said, "Also, you seem to be injured, and you are still not badly injured." ”
The old woman said: "I can't hide it from Your Excellency, the old body has indeed suffered a lot of injuries, and hiding here is also a helpless move, just to avoid the pursuit of those evil demons." Because this area is a bug-plagued area for brain-eating demon insects, even if those demons are crooked, few people are willing to set foot in this area. ”
"It's you, why did you get here?"
The old woman looked at Ning Xiaotang and Yu Wenjun suspiciously.
Ning Xiaotang said lightly: "It's just passing by." ”
Yu Wenjun smiled wryly and said, "I was forcibly taken by this master to row a boat. ”
He just wanted to say more in detail, but at this moment, a strange sound of "rustling~~" suddenly sounded in the distance.
Hearing that voice, the old woman's face suddenly changed, and she said, "It's not good, those brain-eating demon insects are coming again!"
