Chapter 223: Gu Worms

"Bugs?attack?" Qin Wu thought silently in his heart.

"If these insects are driven by people to attack us, then the people who drive them can only be witches......

Qin Wu came to the camp and found that the people in the camp, along with Huangfu Yizhen, had jumped on the nearby trees or shacks, it seemed that they were indeed attacked by these insects, and they also knew that they could avoid these insects at a high level.

"Mr. Huangfu!" Qin Wu came to Huangfu Yizhen and asked, "Are you all right?"

"Mr. Qin, you're here. Huangfu Yizhen said solemnly, "The damage is not big, but there are still two second-rate masters who died...... Since the rain just started, these strange insects have been popping up on the ground, and when they meet people, they will come up and bite like crazy, and many of us are sitting on the ground eating, or some of us have already laid down, and when it happens, many people don't even have time to react, and the whole person is covered with these insects......"

Huangfu Yoshizhen said as he glanced at his subordinates around him.

Qin Wu also glanced around, and found that many people were injured, but they were not serious, except for those who only injured their feet like themselves, the most serious ones were only crawled by insects on their bodies, although they looked very scary with blood all over their bodies, but in fact, the wounds were not deep, after all, these insects were only so big, being bitten was equivalent to being stabbed by sawdust, as long as they were not completely wrapped by insects and could not get out, it would basically not be a big deal.

As for the two dead...... Probably lying on the ground at the time of the incident, before he could react, he was wrapped in insects, no matter how small the wound was, it couldn't accumulate so many insects to eat in turn, and now even if the two people are not left with no bones, I'm afraid there are only two white bones left......

Qin Wu asked, "What do you think of these insects, Mr. Huangfu?"

"This is a Gu worm!" Huangfu Yizhen said categorically, and then he put his palm in front of Qin Wu and spread it, "Mr. Qin, look!"

Qin Wu looked at the palm of Huang Fu Yizhen's hand, Huang Fu Yizhen's hand was lying on a fairly intact insect corpse, Qin Wu was dark just now and couldn't see clearly, but here in the camp, with the help of the light of the bonfire, Qin Wu finally saw the appearance of these strange insects clearly.

This insect is indeed similar to an earthworm, with a crystal white flesh, and nothing else except a long strip-like body, but the obvious difference from the earthworm is that a section of this insect has a pair of mouthparts, and the fangs in the mouthparts do not look like this kind of insect without even limbs should grow.

"Gu worm, so ......" Qin Wu already understood something in his heart.

Huangfu Yizhen retracted his palms, nodded affirmatively and said: "Yes, only those witches like to use these strange things, except for witches, no one else is good at driving Gu worms, and with such a large-scale Gu worm, it seems that they have been prepared for a long time, and they are determined to kill us!"

"I don't think so. Qin Wu said suddenly.

"Oh?" Huangfu Yizhen looked at Qin Wu, "Does Mr. Qin have any high opinions?"

Qin Wu said: "Mr. Huangfu, do you think, even if this is arranged by the witches, how can they be sure that we will be stationed here?

"It's not easy. Huangfu Yizhen said, "We are so close to their station, and we are cutting wood and making fires, will they not be able to find us? Even if we didn't ambush in advance, so long is enough time for them to let the insects crawl over the ground, right?"

Qin Wu shook his head and said, "Yes, there can be this method, but Mr. Huangfu, look at the ground." ”

"What's wrong on the ground?" said Huangfu Yizhen.

Qin Wu said: "Look at how many Gu worms there are on this ground? Even the ground dozens of meters away just now is densely packed with these insects, if so many insects are brought by the witches, then how big of a container do they have to bring to hold these insects?"

Huangfu Yizhen snorted from his nose: "Then Mr. Qin is going to say, apart from the witches, who else will cultivate so many Gu worms? Yang people? Han people? Yes, they may also have knowledge of dabbling in Gu worms, but Mr. Qin, you also said that there are so many people here, besides the witches, who else will cultivate so many Gu worms?"

Qin Wu was dumbfounded for a while, although these insects did come strangely, but what Huangfu Yizhen said was right, it was indeed the most suspicious witch.

Huangfu Yizhen then said: "Yes, the old man may not have said it accurately, these insects were not brought by the witches, but there are still many methods, isn't it? For example, they happened to occupy a favorable position here, so they came here early, and used their secret methods to make these insects multiply rapidly, and even the insects have been spread all over the woods, and they are naturally not only targeting us, but everyone except them." Or if you don't think about it, maybe this forest was originally the seedbed where they secretly cultivated these bugs, but it just so happened that the tomb was also here, and there was no need for special preparation to deal with us. ”

After listening to what Huangfu Yizhen said, Qin Wu still felt that there was something wrong, if this happened to be the seedbed where the witches cultivated Gu worms, then why did they send so many people to attack at the edge of the forest in the first place? Could it be to make their group careless? No, even if they had been cautious, as long as these insects suddenly crawled out of the ground, they would not be able to be guarded.

And if the Gu worms were allowed to breed here in advance, would it really be possible to breed such a terrifying number of worms in just a few hours?

Whether it is the seedbed of Gu worms here, or the witches have been preparing since a long time ago, it is very likely that as Huangfu Yizhen said, their witches are not small, and they are not only targeting Huangfu Yizhen at all, but want to destroy everyone except them in one fell swoop, and even the tomb is very likely to be a rumor released by them......

"Mr. Qin doesn't have to think about it. Huangfu Yizhen said coldly, "What's going on, let's go to the witch's territory to question, and we will naturally know, if they are really so well prepared, they must not be afraid to turn against us, right?"

Qin Wu thought for a moment and said, "Yes, if it's really them, they may have prepared a trap and are welcoming us over." ”

Huangfu Yizhen sneered, "Wouldn't that be better, Mr. Qin didn't want to go and see what means a witch who didn't even have a Divine Condensing Rank could deal with two of us at the same time?"
