Chapter 68: The Sad Old Man

"Notes on Taming Insects" remembers briefly, but the major events of more than 20 years of taming insects have been recorded, there are hundreds, and Su Rongrong picked out the important ones to read. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"In the summer calendar 15827, July 12, I read the strange book "Luo's Exorcism of Puppets", and I was surprised to hear that there is a secret method to refine puppets, which can be driven by the soul of the yuan, and the puppet insects that are the key to the secret method are hidden in Yishan. Fortunately, the soul of Juan'er was gathered with requiem wood, grateful for the providence of God, and now the taming of insects is hereby remembered. ”

"December 15, 15827, now I gathered the materials and refined the puppet, but to no avail. ”

"In 15828, on March 17, the tenth refining of the puppet failed. Because of the impurity of insect blood, the organs of poultry and beasts are not effective, and they are fed with human blood. ”

"In 15829, on the third day of October, I found the "Persona of Western Xinjiang" and learned the method of purifying insects. Catch 100 puppet insects, form a cage, and feed them with human blood and corpses. ”

"In 15833, on October 13, a worm mutated, and the human corpse could be controlled. ”

"In 15835, on the eighth day of June, the birthday of the insect king, the third order, the beginning of the spiritual wisdom, can respond to people's words. Catch a hundred puppet insects and feed them. ”

"In 15835, on the ninth day of October, there were less than 100 puppet insects in Yishan, and they hunted monsters every day to throw insect holes, and they were fed. Pour out the spirit to feed the insect king. ”

"In 15844, on the twenty-first day of March, I sought to obtain the Water Spirit Crystal, the King of Insects, and advanced to the middle of the third order. ”

Thinking of this, Su Rongrong stopped and took a breath.

It's crazy, it's crazy.

The language of this notebook is in the vernacular style of ancient dialects, to the effect that Old Man Chen heard a secret method that can use puppet insects to refine dolls, so that people's souls can attach themselves to the puppets and act. It just so happened that he had already adopted the soul of his wife Juan'er in the requiem wood, so he began to tame insects.

However, refining dolls has been failing, and Old Man Chen felt that the blood of the worms was not good, so he used the method of raising Gu to imprison a hundred puppet insects, raised them with human flesh and blood corpses, and raised mutant puppet insects and insect kings.

After that, he continued to feed the insect king with puppet insects, and when there were not enough wild insects, he caught monsters every day to feed the insects and promote them to reproduce.

He also nourished the Worm King with treasures containing rich aura, and finally made the Worm King evolve to the middle of the third order.

"It's incredible. Su Rongrong was still in shock, "Is it really feasible to raise insects like this? Ten years of raising Gu has made the puppet insects advance by one and a half steps?"

Lu Bo shook his head and said, "Unheard of." Generally, the advancement of demon beasts is slow, but if it is nourished by natural resources and earthly treasures for a long time, it is not impossible to advance to divine speed. I'm afraid that Old Man Chen's entire net worth has been thrown into it. ”

Su Rongrong sighed: "I really didn't expect that the mutated puppet worm that caused the people of Yicheng to suffer a catastrophe was actually cultivated by the people who lived in Yicheng, it's really ironic!"

"There's a few years left after that, right? Lu Bo reminded her.

Su Rongrong raised the jade slip again, and gradually, his expression became serious.

"In the summer calendar of 15845, on the first day of the fifth month, the puppets of Yishan were full of insects and began to enter the city to disturb the people. ”

"In the summer calendar, 15846, on June 12, the mutant puppet worm fled, causing panic, and the upper echelons wanted to get rid of it quickly. Rush and bribe, block. Let the insect king return to the mountain, and the regular group of insects is not allowed to enter the city. ”

"In the summer calendar of 15847, on the twenty-fifth day of November, the king of insects has a way, the insect swarm is prosperous, and the mutation is full of ten. ”

"In the summer calendar of 15847, on the twenty-seventh day of November, the puppet insects were set to mutate and refine the puppets, and they were first formed. When it is mutated to ten more, it can be perfected. ”

"In the summer calendar 15853, on the fifth day of the fourth month, there were spirit beasts in the city entering the mountain, and puppet insects attached to them entered the city, causing panic. The upper echelons want to enter the mountain, bribe it, and block it......"

When Su Rongrong read this, everything that happened back then became clear.

Under the daily feeding of Old Man Chen, the puppet insect swarm flourished and began to disturb the people. The upper-level people in Yicheng wanted to kill insects, but they were bribed and stopped by Old Man Chen, and released the insect king to regulate the range of activities of the insect swarm, and kept the puppet insect nest.

Under the leadership of the insect king, ten mutant puppet insects soon appeared, and Old Man Chen used these ten insects to refine the puppet, and he achieved a small success. Wait until you have gathered ten more puppet worms and refined the puppets again, and you're done.

However, during this period, there were more and more puppet insects in Yishan, and the spirit pets raised by people occasionally passed by the mountains and forests, and they could be possessed. This angered the people of Yicheng again, and Old Man Chen bribed and blocked him many times.

Come to think of it, this is probably the inside story that the five elders of Yicheng want to blockade, because they have accepted bribes and have not done anything, so the insect swarm is thriving, and there are heavy casualties during the insect plague. If the people knew about this, they would have to riot, and the number of people going to the city to work would drop sharply.

Su Rongrong continued to look down, and finally saw the last record:

"In the summer calendar of 15855, on the twenty-fifth day of June, a worm in the Gu mutated, and it will be released tomorrow, returning to the king of insects. ”

The insect Gu in the basement raised another mutant puppet worm, and Old Man Chen planned to release it back into the mountains and forests and let it follow the insect king.

However, this time he went into the mountains, and he disappeared for five years, and finally died in an unknown place.

A year later, the puppet insects attacked the city, and a terrible insect plague broke out.

After reading the jade slip, both of them were thoughtful and speechless for a while.

The image of an old man with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, lonely and vicissitudes, clearly appeared in Su Rongrong's heart.

He was originally a lowly child, but he worked hard to win the life he wanted; he thought he could give happiness to the person he loved the most, but she left behind and passed away early; in order to get her back to his side, he did not hesitate to imprison her soul and spent more than 20 years making outrageous deviations; he was unwilling to give up his research, and he could not bear to hurt others, so he had to work himself back and forth; when he was finally about to finish, he died and everything came to naught; and even after his death, the people he had been defending were both defeated by his research results, making his efforts a joke......

What a sad man who has been played by fate......

Su Rongrong felt sad in her heart, so she looked at Lu Bo and saw that he also had a solemn face, thinking that she was also sighing for this sad old man.

Lu Bo glanced at her, shook his head and said, "Everyone has his own life. Our top priority is to find a way to stop the infestation, what can you do?"

Su Rongrong looked around the room and thought about it.

She didn't have much confidence if she wanted to fight hard, but now that she saw Yu Jian, she had some guesses in her heart, although she might be a little naΓ―ve and romantic, but she really wanted to give it a try. If you're lucky, you'll be able to get a way to nourish the soul of Velvet.

"Ding-dong!"

[Main Story] Obtain the Requiem Wood of Old Man Chen

Mission Description: Stop the puppet insect plague in Yicheng, and take the requiem wood held by Old Man Chen from the Yishan forest.

Su Rongrong smiled, the main line that has been lost for a long time, you are finally here!

Su Rongrong turned to Lu Bo and smiled brightly: "Let's go into the mountain to find the puppet insect king and make a deal with it!"

Lu Bo raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "You are really getting bolder, Miss Su." ”

The two took away the iron plate and jade slip that fed the puppet insects, and walked around the Chen family's mansion again, finding a few items from the old man Chen and his wife before their deaths and putting them away as bait to lure the insect king out of the hole.

When he returned to the room after being busy, Lu Bo stood in the corridor and watched Su Rongrong walk into the room.

Su Rongrong entered the room and lit the candle, seeing that the room was still the way it was before going out, knowing that Azhu had not come in, he returned to the door to report Lu Bo's safety.

The candle flame was bright, and she saw that Lu Bo's cheeks and ears were red.

She was stunned and asked, "Do you have a fever?"

Lu Bo was also stunned by the question, and asked rhetorically: "Why?"

Su Rongrong pointed to his earlobe and said, "Your face and ears are so red." ”

Lu Bo was confused for a second, suddenly thought of something, his whole face turned red instantly, and he said bluntly, "I'm fine", and quickly opened the door of his room and flashed in.

Su Rongrong was inexplicable, recalled for a while, and suddenly remembered the specimens of the naked fruit on the second floor of the basement, among them, there were also young women......

So this guy has been blushing ever since then, and has been laughing and talking with her casually until Candleflame betrays him.

Su Rongrong looked at the door of the closed Lu Bo room, and suddenly wanted to laugh, this guy is really, Hinako......

Also, in her hometown, isn't a child of Lu Bo's age at the age of being interested in action movies from an island country......

"In the end, it's still flesh and bloodβ€”"

When this meaningful whispered sigh came into the room, Lu Bo's whole face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

He thought seriously again, why don't you form a team?

Kill her.
