Chapter 129 Eggs
The flying boat lowered a few points, and it was faintly audible. The people gathered in the village were surrounding the burning flames and praying devoutly, "The Lord is merciful and bless Laifu Village to have good weather and no disease or disaster in the coming year..."
Some people pray there, hoping that the "Lord" will bless their children and grandchildren to have spiritual roots, so that they can be selected by the sect and embark on the path of spiritual practice. Or they may pray for the blessings of the "Lord" to eliminate the illness and pain in the family.
, and regain health.
There are also some villagers kneeling there, kowtowing to the lit talisman fire one by one, hoping that the omnipotent "Lord" can bring them a generous sum of spiritual stones, preferably thousands.
There are as many as ten thousand. In this way, they no longer have to stay in the cold and barren extreme east of the North Continent, but can move to the richer places in the Central Continent and live a good life like a master.
When a monk reaches the Nascent Soul realm, his ears are strong enough to hear sounds several miles away.
These noisy sounds fell clearly into Yu Xi's ears.
The talisman paper burned in the flames, the flames flickered, and desire continued to grow with the rising flames.
The scarlet mist filled the village more and more.
The villagers seemed invisible to these fogs.
But surrounded by the mist, they gradually fell into an increasingly crazy state.
The flames were still burning. In less than half a stick of incense, the people who had just kowtowed had already kowtowed to their foreheads until they were bloody and bloody. It was obvious that they had used great force. But they still did not stop, and continued one after another.
It's as if he doesn't feel any pain at all.
This is so wrong.
"There's something wrong with those talismans." What Yu Xi said was exactly what everyone in the cabin guessed.
The airship slowly descended from the sky and stopped at a height of only ten feet away from the village. The formation that concealed traces on the ship was activated, and no one below noticed the airship.
In fact, even if this formation is not activated, the villagers below who have fallen into a state of madness may not have time to pay attention to this flying boat that appears in the sky.
In the cabin, Elder Mai's eyes fell on the blazing flames, and he suddenly said: "Your Majesty, look over there!"
Yu Xi looked in the direction of his finger.
In the flames, clusters of red things appeared in the ashes of the burnt talismans. When the villagers were not paying attention, they slowly squirmed away from the flames and into the crowd.
Yu Xi's eyes narrowed, "Is it a soul-eating insect?"
"Yes." Elder Mai was worried, "Last time when Wan Du Sect was swept by soul-eating insects, my subordinates participated in the strangulation. The insects that appeared in the village were almost the same as what I saw in Wan Du Sect at that time."
He took another closer look and added: "But the soul-eating insects here are far less powerful than the insects that invaded the Ten Thousand Poison Gate at that time. They seem to have just hatched not long ago?"
These insects do not act alone, but gather together in dozens and dozens, and first go towards those who are kowtowing to seek wealth and who are in the craziest state.
Dozens of bugs crawled onto a person's body at the same time. In just a few breaths, the bugs disappeared from the surface of the skin. Then, the person who was spotted by the bugs froze, suddenly lost consciousness and fell backwards.
Only those who were further away from the ignited flame noticed the strange behavior of the fainted person and anxiously approached him to ask.
One of the girls in blue cloth looked the most panicked and kept shaking the fainted man on the ground, "Uncle, wake up? What's wrong with you? Wake up quickly!"
There were three or four people who fainted. The number of people who stayed awake and stepped forward to care for them was only a handful. The rest of the people's eyes were still focused on the blazing flames, as if they didn't see anyone faint at all.
"Aunt, cousin, and uncle are all like this, why do you..."
The two people who were still praying with their hands together and eyes closed showed no reaction.
The girl in blue began to realize that something was wrong. After shining her hand in front of four or five people one after another, she said loudly: "Stop it, everyone, stop it!"
"There's something wrong with these talismans. Stop burning them. Stop it!"
"This woman is quite courageous." Chang Hui's eyes showed a bit of pity for talent.
"Let's do it." With a thought, Yu Xi's figure appeared on the bow of the ship and said to everyone, "Catch all these soul-eating insects."
"Ma Yi, go and peel the soul-eating insects from those people."
"Yes, I obey." After receiving the order, Elder Mai flashed his figure, and the next moment he came to the girl in blue, lifted the man on the ground, clasped his shoulders with both hands, and penetrated the spiritual power into the other person's body.
The girl in blue was stunned at first, and then was shocked, "Who are you, and what are you going to do to my uncle..."
Elder Mai glanced lightly and ignored her inquiry.
At the same time, Yu Xi and Chang Yi Changhui on the flying boat also took action.
The three of them did not show their bodies, but Chang Yi was wrapped in black mist. He used the mist to catch hundreds of red insects that were still crawling on the ground, and trapped them all in the black mist surrounding them.
Chang Hui hid beside Chang Yi and cast several spells one after another. Pieces of water vapor condensed in her palms, covering the crawling insects on the ground.
After the water vapor gets on the bugs, it quickly condenses into ice. After a while, the squirming bugs turn into lumps of condensed ice and can no longer move.
Yu Xi's method was simpler. She hovered in mid-air and waved her soft whip, and the whip wind swept the insects and sand away from the ground.
Yu Xi saw the right moment, took out the metal box from the snake bracelet, and locked all the soul-eating insects into the box.
Capture alive.
It only took the three of them a dozen breaths to kill all the hundreds of soul-eating insects emerging from the flames.
Elder Mai also peeled off the bugs from the bodies of those who fainted, and boarded the airship again with the bugs stuck together in the sand.
The burning flames had also been extinguished by water vapor, and the eyes of the villagers gathered around the flames finally showed some clarity.
Looking at the chaotic scene around them, everyone was confused for a moment.
"What happened just now?"
The village chief had blood on his forehead and grimaced in pain. After looking around in confusion, his eyes fell on the girl in blue who was taking care of the fainted person, "Yufu, why did your uncle faint?"
The girl in blue, who was called Yufu, shook her head blankly. After the village chief looked away, she raised her head and looked up at the sky.
After leaving her uncle in the care of her aunt and cousin, who had regained consciousness, she walked eastward along the path outside the village.
The girl could only cultivate by introducing Qi into her body, but she spontaneously learned to use her spiritual power in her throat in desperation. "Thank you, senior, for saving me. I am investigating the clues about those bugs? Yu Fu may know something..."
"Your Majesty?" On the flying boat, Elder Mai cast an inquiring look at Yu Xi.
Yu Xi said quietly, "Let her speak."
The flying boat stopped at low altitude.
The girl in blue bit her lower lip lightly and said, "I have seen how the bugs that senior caught hatched!"
