From the foot of Python Mountain to Fancheng, more than 60 miles of road, as wide as 97,000 pours, in this month came all kinds of news of the appearance of snake nests. Bai Wen originally thought that this disaster was big enough, but Shen Congrong's words made Bai Wen even more afraid, isn't it just that these places have suffered snake damage?

Shen calmly looked at the snake scales and said: "From here to the west, Mulian Town, three hundred miles away, was also hit by a snake half a month ago, and a total of twenty-six surrounding counties are also the same. ”

Bai Wen was in a cold sweat for a while, such a large-scale disaster, if it was because of the scales he brought back, it would be too much of a sin. Thinking like this, Bai Wen couldn't stand still.

Shen calmly glanced at Bai Wen and saw that Bai Wen was a little shaking, and his head was still sweating, so he naturally knew what he was for. So he comforted: "Taishou doesn't have to blame himself so much, this disaster will happen no matter what, sit down first, the most important thing at the moment is to solve the demon chaos and prevent the demon chaos from continuing to expand." ”

Bai Wen sat down, but his mood was still not calm, Mulian Town suffered a snake infestation half a month ago, which means that the snake pest spread from Python Mountain to Mulian Town, three hundred miles away, as early as half a month ago, and now more than half a month has passed, where should it spread?

Shen Congrong did not tell Bai Wen that the snake damage in Mulian Town had appeared as early as a month ago, on the one hand, it was to make Bai Wen less self-blaming, and on the other hand, he was thinking about why the beast roar had just come out of Python Mountain a month ago, and it lasted for a few days before Bai Wen went up the mountain to investigate, but almost at the same time as the beast roared, there was a snake gnawing on the field in Mulian Town, which conflicted with Bai Wen going up the mountain to explore and bring back snake scales and snake damage again. Moreover, Liu Hu appeared in Mulian Town after the snake gnawing the field in Mulian Town, and although there were snakes and insects in the town after Liu Hu appeared, it was not as serious as Bai Wen described. If it is said that it is a snake pest created by Liu Hu, how can such a large-scale snake pest be completed in just a few days. There should be other reasons for this.

Imagination and reasoning alone can't get the truth, and Shen Congrong didn't dwell too much, so he continued to focus on the snake scales in his hand, hoping to get any useful clues from them.

Regarding the demon chaos in Mulian Town, although Han Qu knew that there was such a thing, he didn't know the specific time, so he didn't pay special attention to it, his eyes were always on Shen Congrong and the snake scales in her hand.

"Such a large snake scale, although it is not very rare on the spirit, but this purple one is the first time to see it, and if it is said that a single snake scale can cause a wide range of snake damage, then this snake scale must have a special effect, but how to confirm it?" Han Qu squinted and thought, his hand unconsciously tapping on the armrest.

In this way, the room fell silent for a while, only the sound of Han Qu tapping on the handrail.

Suddenly, Han Qu seemed to think of something, and the movements in his hands suddenly stopped. As Han Qu stopped moving, there was no sound in the room, and Shen Congrong also turned around from his contemplation, looked at Han Qu, and waited for him to speak.

Han Qu looked at Shen calmly and said with a smile: "I think this scale is not an ordinary snake scale, ordinary snake pythons do not have this color, and this scale is very likely to come from a snake." ”

"Hu?" Shen calmly searched for information about Yu in his mind, and said, "You mean that you can turn into a Jiao?"

Han Qu nodded and said: "Yes, a snake can become a python in a hundred years, a python can become a python in a hundred years, a python can become a dragon in a hundred years, and a dragon in a thousand years. ”

"Yu is born with purple gas, can swallow the essence of the sun and the moon, the purple gas is swirling around the body, the water and soil do not invade, the adult body is eighteen zhang long, three zhang thick, and the roar is like a bull and tiger. Shen calmly recalled the record about the Yu.

Han Qu said: "Yes, the purple aura around the body is a major feature of Yu. ”

Han Qu walked to Shen Congrong's side, stretched out his hands and said, "Lend me the scales." ”

Shen calmly handed the scales to Han Qu to see what he could do.

Han Qu took the scales and raised them up to the sun, only to see the sunlight passing through the snake scales, and there seemed to be purple vapor steaming around the snake scales, and there were some more patterns on the scales.

After seeing the purple qi, Han Qu pointed to the scales and said, "Look, the purple qi is swirling, and according to Lord Taishou, there is a beast roaring in the python mountain, I don't know what the roar looks like?"

Bai Wen recalled the voice he heard that day and said, "It's like the cry of a tiger." ”

"That's right, this should be the scales of the snake, it is said that devouring the scales of the snake can make the snake obtain the bloodline of the dragon, which has a very good effect on their cultivation and transformation, and a large number of snakes appear for this scale. Han Qu is quite confident.

Shen Congrong felt that something was wrong, and said: "Just counting here, according to what Taishou said, there are 97,000 snakes in a wide area, and it is absolutely impossible to attract snakes in such a wide range with this scale alone, not to mention that there must be some other reasons for not only here." ”

Shen Congrong's words made Han Qu also feel that it was impossible for a single scale to cause such a large-scale turmoil, but what was the reason, or what means could cause such a large-scale turmoil?

Han Qu suddenly thought of something, and raised the scales again, and in the sunlight, the patterns on the scales resurfaced. Looking at the direction of the patterns on the scales, the corners of Han Qu's mouth hooked up a smile and said, "That's right, it must be because of these patterns." ”

Shen calmly walked behind Han Qu, looked at the patterns on the scales and said, "How can you see it?"

Han Qu pointed to the pattern and said: "The scales of the Yu are hard, and it is difficult for the mountains and rocks and trees to leave any scratches on its scales alone, let alone form such a regular pattern, so this pattern must have been deliberately left by the Yu, in order to cause demon chaos, or in other words, to gather strength." ”

Shen calmly said to Feng Muge: "Pastoral, there are a large number of formations in the inheritance you have learned, you can take a look at what these patterns represent." ”

Feng Muge took the scales from Han Qu's hand, looked at the pattern on it and said: "This is a formation for information transmission, the information in it is hidden, it should be information that only snakes can understand, if there is a large amount of spiritual power, it can be transmitted far away." ”

Shen calmly asked, "Then is there any way to know the hidden information?"

Feng Muge shook his head and said, "This information can only be understood by snakes, but if you can catch a snake that understands human language, you can ask it." ”

The so-called snake that understands the language of the people is a snake demon that has been cultivated, even if it can't transform into a shape, it is not far away, but where to find such a snake now?

Although he couldn't get the information in it, Shen Congrong didn't feel that there was any problem, but went on to ask another question: "You said that if you have a large amount of spiritual power, you can transmit it far away?"

Feng Muge nodded and said: "Yes, although this scale itself has a certain amount of spiritual power, I think it should be left by the blade to save information, and it can't transmit information far away, so it must have used other spiritual power, and it is very large." ”

Shen calmly turned his head to look at Bai Wen and said, "Lord Taishou, where do you put this scale after you take it back?"

Bai Wen got up and said, "Just put it in the warehouse." ”

"What's in the storeroom?"

"It's just some sundries, utensils, emergency gold and silver. ”

"Where's the Great Luck Array?"

Bai Wen looked at Han Qu and did not answer directly.

Han Qu knew that he didn't know, so he motioned for himself to go out for a while.

However, Shen Congrong stopped him and said, "Forget it, go to the warehouse to check it out." ”

After entering the warehouse, Shen calmly looked around, but it was quite clean, and all kinds of things were placed everywhere according to categories.

Bai Wen led Shen Congrong and the others to a small shelf and said: "There was no spare space in the warehouse before, so a small shelf was made now, and the scales were placed here." ”

The small shelf was covered with a piece of cloth that covered the whole shelf, and there was a seat on it, and the scales were always placed here.

Shen calmly asked, "Why is such a cloth covered on this shelf?"

There is no such cloth on the other shelves in the whole storeroom, so this cloth seems a little redundant.

Bai Wen said: "Oh, there was no place to put this cloth, so it was covered on this shelf, is there anything wrong?"

Feng Muge grabbed the cloth and threw it aside, revealing a hole in the ground under the shelf.

Looking at this hole, Shen said calmly: "Lord Taishou, do you say there is anything wrong?"

Bai Wen began to sweat again, and he didn't know what to say.

A few bricks on the side of the cave were lifted, and a small tunnel appeared in front of everyone, scattered with some jade, still emitting light.

Feng Muge looked at it for a moment and said, "It should be a leading formation, using these jade stones as a guide, channeling the aura here, and using it to stimulate the formation on the scales." ”

Bai Wen suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "The lower official doesn't know!"

Shen Congrong patted Bai Wen's shoulder and said, "Taishou doesn't have to be like this, I know this is not what you prepared, but let the demon take advantage of the loophole, you have to arrest the demon for me." ”

"Yes, the lower officials will definitely capture the demons. Bai Wen stood up tremblingly.

Shen Congrong glared at him and said, "Stand firm, you are my official of Great Qin, how can you lose your honor in front of foreign envoys!"

Bai Wen took a deep breath to calm himself down.

Shen calmly looked at the jade in the cave and said to Feng Muge: "Muge, in your opinion, how long can these jade stones last in this formation. ”

Feng Muge said: "The jade that transmits the aura can be used all the time, but the one at the source will have to be replaced in real time." ”

Shen Congrong knew that there were only two possibilities at the source of this formation, one was at the Great Fortune Formation of the Taishou Mansion, and the other was in the Python Mountain or other places, and the other was to be personally urged by that Monkey, but in this case, what was the need to let this scale be in the Zhenshou Mansion?

Shen Congrong suddenly thought of a possibility, and said, "Go back to the reception room, there is a problem with the scales!"
