Chapter 427: The Man Behind the Scenes

Seeing their faces like this, Su Han's heart couldn't help but sink and said, "What's the matter?"

Ke Ling shook his head, "It's okay if we want to save this one, but if we want to save thousands of people, it will be too embarrassing." ”

Su Han also knew this truth, Ke Ling said: "Do you know who did it?"

Su Han shook his head, "I came out this time to investigate this matter. ”

"Do you have a clue?" asked Ke Ling.

"No clue. Su Han shook his head, "There are dead bodies everywhere, and this old man is the first living person I have encountered." ”

As he spoke, he handed over two pills, "Do you need it?"

"These Gu worms can't help us. Ke Ling waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Gu worm?" Hearing Ke Ling's words, Su Han felt refreshed and asked.

"It's a Gu worm. "Ke Ling Dao," is still a very rare and difficult to refine Gu worm in southern Xinjiang, called Silver Thread Gu. Because it was so terrifying, even the most evil sect in Southern Xinjiang didn't dare to use this kind of Gu worm. But I didn't expect ......"

As she spoke, she clenched her fists.

Su Han seemed to see a glimmer of hope again, and asked, "Then since you know that it is a silver thread Gu, how can you deal with it?"

"It's hard to deal with. Ke Ling said, "Just like this old man, we have to spend a lot of effort to expel the Silver Thread Gu, and it is okay to treat one, and it is too reluctant for us to treat a hundred and a thousand." ”

Speaking of this, Keling paused and said, "However, there is another way to completely eradicate the current crisis, and the insect infestation will also be completely eliminated." ”

"What way?" Su Han hurriedly asked.

"Find the person who released the worms. Ke Ling said, "The Silver Thread Gu was born from the Silver Thread Mother Worm, and the Silver Thread Mother Worm issued an edict. These Silver Thread Gu are thousands of miles away, and they have to go back immediately. ”

Su Han smiled bitterly, "But now I don't even know who did it......" Thinking of this, Su Han's heart moved, "What if the mother worm is killed?"

Ke Ling's face changed, and then he lowered his head a little sadly, "That Dongtu mortal, I don't know how much is left." ”

Su Han said with a strange expression: "You should be scaring me, right?"

"You see I have the skills to scare you. Ke Ling said, "That's the case, there is no mother worm." Although the silver thread Gu acted out of order, he had the instinct to harm people. And do you know where the most terrifying thing about the Silver Thread Gu is, it lies in its terrifying reproduction speed, a Silver Thread Gu, as long as there is nourishment, can breed to 10 million in just one month. You count two months, three months. How many Silver Thread Gu will there be? ”

Su Han felt a chill down his spine. He asked, "What is their nourishment?"

Cling paused before spitting out a single word, "People." ”

Su Han had nothing to say.

"Is there a way to stop the spread of the Silver Thread Gu?" Gu Yun asked Ke Ling at this time.

This made Su Han a little surprised, he glanced at Gu Yun, because he thought. In the Wu clan, the stronger the strength, the more you understand.

Ke Ling said: "I can't do it alone, but I have already sent a summons to the clan, not long after. Help should have arrived. ”

Su Han asked, "What are your plans now?"

"Find out who's behind it. Ke Ling said, "This matter, my Wu clan has completely taken over." There is no need for a person or sect that would do such a thing that people and gods are angry about, and there is no need to exist in the world. ”

She was just a young girl, but the words she said were cold, which showed that this matter had indeed made him angry.

"What about you?" Ke Ling asked, looking at Su Han.

Su Han said: "If you don't mind, I don't know if I can join you, after all, I came a little earlier, and there are people I know well here, so I may be more familiar with the situation here." ”

Ke Ling glanced at Gu Yun, and Gu Yun nodded.

"Well, you can come with us. ”

Then, Su Han sent the old man to a place that had not yet been affected by the Silver Thread Gu, although that was just to help the old man live a little longer, but now the top priority was to find the Silver Thread Gu Mother Worm.

When they returned, Ke Ling and Gu Yun were already waiting outside the city. Then the three of them went on the road together and headed towards another epidemic area.

In the days that followed, they met a number of monks, all of whom were angry at the abomination of the person who had done such a heinous thing, and were trying to find the culprit behind it.

But along the way, there is still not much useful information. During this period, Lin Shuzhen sent a summons and told Su Han the location of the Xindong Mansion, and Su Han replied to the summons and told Lin Shuzhen about the Silver Thread Gu.

On this day they came to a great city again.

The city is located on the edge of the city, and in just these days, more than thirty more cities have been completely turned into dead cities.

"The territory is too vast for mortals to react effectively. Ke Ling sighed as he looked at the people outside the city who were burning their bodies.

Su Han looked at the road, guarded by a large group of soldiers, wearing masks, at the beginning of the epidemic, restricting the movement of people within the epidemic area became the consensus of the mortal government.

Su Han said: "And now the scope of the epidemic area has expanded to a radius of more than 10,000 miles, and with the ability of mortals, there is no way to cross the distance of 10,000 miles. ”

"It's unthinkable. Ke Ling said, "If you don't find the silver thread Gu mother worm again, I'm afraid that the surrounding countries will become a dead domain in just a few years." ”

Su Han imagined the situation where the Silver Thread Gu would spread to Diancang, with fear on one side and powerless anger on the other.

"Where is it, who did it? He muttered under his breath, a little frustrated.

They entered the city and looked at the mourning in the city, but they were also helpless, they could help one person, but for now, it was just to help them survive.

Even the people of the Great Song Dynasty in the north were alarmed. ”

At this time, Gu Yun said.

Su Han followed Gu Yun's gaze and saw that not far away, several people dressed in Baixuanmen costumes were asking a question from a local monk, who was originally poisoned by Gu and was cured by several Baixuanmen people.

There are several super sects in the Great Song Kingdom, in the four countries that belong to the remote areas of the eastern soil. They have always had a transcendent status, and the local monks often look at these people as if they were from the Celestial Empire.

But of course, this does not include the Wu clan, the 100,000 mountains are self-contained, and the powerful sects are not few, and they have a profound background, and even the sects with a longer history than the Baixuanmen Tenglong Pavilion are by no means nothing.

And of course, this does not include Su Han, who once had to face the old faces of Song Chan, Li Tiancheng or Liu Yong all day long, to these ordinary disciples. Naturally, I didn't catch a cold at all.

But now, seeing them, Su Han couldn't help but feel that he had grabbed another life-saving straw. These sects are no better than the eight sects, they are very large and can survive for so long. There must be a strict and sophisticated system inside the door. Generally speaking, they are always efficient and fast. Maybe their investigation. What progress can be made.

Come to think of it. He glanced at Ke Ling and Gu Yun, but the two of them didn't seem to be very willing to deal with these people, Ke Ling shook his head, "If you want to ask, go over and ask." ”

Su Han didn't say much. Immediately walked over. He had made up his mind that in order to find the murderer, he could let go of any prejudice.

When he walked up to the men, he heard the monk say, "More than a year ago. More than a year ago, I thought about it, by the way, it seems that I didn't go anywhere else at that time, but I went to the Jinfeng Pavilion not far away once, and there was a competition held during that time, which was very lively, so it was convenient for a few Taoist friends to go and see it together. ”

There are three Jindan and three people who build the foundation, and those who build the foundation are all seven or eight layers of the foundation. Seeing Su Han, they just glanced at it, and their eyes fell on the monk who was speaking.

"Huh?" At this time, Su Han couldn't help but sigh lightly when he heard the monk's words, which caused two of the real people to look at Su Han dissatisfied.

"And then you came back?" asked a Jindan real person, dressed in a black robe, who seemed to be the leader of these hundred Xuanmen monks, at this time.

"It's back. ”

"Never been anywhere else?"

"Since then, I have been in retreat, trying to hit the fourth floor of the foundation. ”

"Okay, we got it. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, from here to the northwest three thousand miles, there is a rescue point established by this gate, where you can go first, the insect infestation has not subsided, it is better not to leave there. ”

When the native monk heard this, he clenched his fists and said, "Thank you for saving your life, it's unforgettable." ”

"You've helped us a lot, too. Jin Dan Zhenren said lightly.

The native monk said: "In this way, I will say goodbye, I hope you can catch the mastermind behind the scenes as soon as possible." ”

After the monk left, Su Han took a step forward, hugged his fists and said, "In the lower point of Cangsu Qun, I have seen a few real people. ”

The three real people of the Baixuanmen only glanced at Su Han lightly, and two of them turned their heads and talked to the three Zhuji monks, but the one who seemed to be the most kind among them, asked at this time, "Is there something wrong?"

Su Han said: "It's not a secret, I and two friends from the Wu clan over there have also been investigating this matter in the past few days, so I want to come over and communicate with a few people about the results of the investigation to see if there can be something complementary." ”

"Wu Clan?" The black-robed real man turned his head at this time, glanced at Ke Ling with interest, and then said lightly: "There is nothing to communicate." ”

As he spoke, he nodded to the others, who were already about to leave.

Su Han hurriedly said, "I don't know why you asked about the matter of the Golden Phoenix Pavilion a year ago?"

Hearing this, the black-robed man turned his head and looked at Su Han, "Do you know anything?"

Su Han said: "I don't know very well, but the incident of the previous year, Su Qun happened to be at the meeting, so maybe he may know something." ”

Hearing this, the black-robed real man suddenly lost interest, turned around and said, "Let's go." ”

Su Han said, "Don't you want to stop them? Just give up the possibility of finding the mastermind at once?"

A foundation building monk beside the black-robed real man turned around, looked at Su Han, and said viciously: "We are going south this time, not for any other purpose, just to find out the murderer, what qualifications do you think you have to say such things to me!?"

Su Han sneered: "It's just that you put on such a big sect shelf, and you don't want to cooperate with the local monks. ”

Hearing this, the black-robed monk raised his hand and motioned for everyone to stop, and then he turned to look at Su Han, "I'll give you a cup of tea, our time is very tight." ”

Su Han said: "I have a little guess, but I don't understand it very well, so I hope you will tell me, what have you found?"

Words here. Ke Ling Guyun could also hear it, and at this time they also came over, and the black-robed monk glanced at it and didn't care.

"What are your guesses?" the black-robed real man didn't answer Su Han's question, and asked rhetorically.

Su Han said, "Do you suspect the Golden Phoenix Pavilion?"

"I just think it seems to have something to do with this sect. The black-robed real man paused, looking at the eyes of Su Han and the two Wu clans, the black-robed real man continued: "Since there are two Wu clans here, you must also know the root cause of this incident. It's a silver thread Gu. ”

Su Han nodded.

The black-robed real man continued: "We have a total of more than 100 people going south this time, and we have also united with some sects, and after several months of inquiry, we found that the spread of the insect infestation is very fast. According to the point of the initial outbreak, the location of the Gu worm in the incubation period that we speculated. The number of Gu worms that reproduce. and after the initial group of people carrying Gu worms. We found that the vast majority of the people who carried Gu worms at the beginning were monks. ”

"Monk?" Su Han was stunned, "But shouldn't a monk be much more powerful than mortals in their ability to resist Gu worms?"

"Yes. "The black robe is really humane," but because of this, the incubation period will also be longer. We guess. It is likely that the person who released the Gu worm did not want to be discovered, so he took the monk to start. In this way, the monk fell into the Gu worm without knowing it. After the middle Gu, continue to live and practice. Then at the end of the incubation period, the Gu worms broke out, the monk died, and a large number of Gu worms poured out of the monk's body and went in all directions, and then this crisis broke out. ”

Su Han listened, and then asked, "How long is the incubation period in the monk's body?"

"Monk Tsuki, it's a year. "The black robe is humane.

Su Han's heart moved, "That is just the right match with the previous competition of the Golden Phoenix Pavilion." ”

"After thinking of this, we went to investigate the first group of monks who died, and later found that these people had one thing in common, that is, they had all been to the Golden Phoenix Pavilion a year ago. ”

Su Han pondered for a moment, "I know that the Golden Phoenix Pavilion has a big plan, but I don't really understand it, what is the use of doing this for the Golden Phoenix Pavilion?"

"What big scheme?" asked the black-robed real man.

Su Han didn't hide anything, "They want to unify the four countries. ”

"Unify the four kingdoms?" The black-robed real man was also stunned, "Is it all four kingdoms that are all dead by one person?"

Ke Ling asked at this time, "Maybe ......"

Her words caught everyone's attention, and everyone looked at Keling.

Ke Ling said: "Actually, the Silver Thread Gu, in addition to harming people, also has a function that is not very well known. ”

When she spoke, her expression was a little unnatural, and Gu Yun gently patted Ke Ling's shoulder beside her.

The black-robed real man asked, "What is the function?"

Ke Ling glanced at Su Han and said, "Silver Thread Gu, as long as it is slightly transformed, it can be used to collect souls. ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

"I was exposed to this kind of Gu worm for a while. Ke Ling said, "After the Silver Thread Gu kills a person, it will devour their souls, and at this time, he will not look for the next target, but find a place to sleep. Once the Silver Gu Mother Worm is summoned, these Silver Thread Gu will immediately return to the Mother Worm and hand over the devoured soul. ”

The black-robed real man sneered when he heard this, "Sure enough, the Wu Clan is studying this kind of harmful thing." ”

"What are you talking about?" Gu Yun's expression was not good, and his body immediately exuded a terrifying aura.

Only then did everyone notice Gu Yun, before that, Gu Yun had been standing behind Ke Ling, although he looked mighty and handsome, but his strength couldn't see anything. But it was only at this time that the black robe knew that the strong man in front of him was not something he could deal with at all, so he realized that he was speechless and kept silent and stopped talking.

"Hundreds of millions of souls......" Su Han seemed to think of something, and his expression changed slightly.

"Maybe it's more. The black-robed monk glanced at Gu Yun, "At this time, there are almost four or five billion people, and after a while, I am afraid that there will be ten billion." ”

Su Han's face was cloudy, and he finally attracted the attention of the black-robed man, and he said, "Did you find something?"

Su Han shook his head, "I just think this matter is too cruel, what are these people thinking?"

The black-robed man was a little dissatisfied: "But you still haven't told us any useful information. ”

"I'm sorry, we still have some things, let's take our leave. Su Han couldn't care so much at this time, he gestured towards Ke Ling and Gu Yun, and walked in the direction he came.

Ke Ling seemed to remember something, and he had been a little depressed, and was pulled by Gu Yun for a while, and then walked along.

The black-robed real person stared at Su Han with a somewhat cold expression.

He must have found something, but he didn't expect it to be such a person. A real person next to him sighed.

The black-robed real man looked at it for a long time, and then sighed again, "That's it, let him go." ”

"Huh?"

The black-robed man said: "I also know what he discovered, and even know what he is worried about." ”

"Huh, dare to ask the real person, what is he worried about?"

He was worried that if too many people knew the truth, it would kill the silver thread Gu motherworm. As a result, things can become completely out of control. "But he is too underestimated by my Baixuanmen, which is understandable, but unforgivable." ”

"Would you rather believe in the Witch Clan than believe in us?"

The black-robed man said: "The one next to him should be a witch servant, the strength is too strong, we are not opponents, and we can only let them go." ”

"What should I do now?"

"It can already be determined that this matter is inseparable from the Golden Phoenix Pavilion, so you arrange for the people over there in Shanyang to go directly to the Golden Phoenix Pavilion to visit, and say that to investigate this matter, how many sects have been united here, and I want to invite the Golden Phoenix Pavilion to join in. In such a case, there should not be much suspicion. ”

"What about us?" asked the man next to him.

The black robe is really humane: "Naturally, with this Su Qun, maybe the rise and fall of tens of billions of people is in his hands." (To be continued......)
