Starting from the recovery of Shanhaijing

Chapter 95 Zerg Egg Hatching

The situation inside the pagoda was really beyond everyone's expectations.

I thought not to mention the splendor, but with the name of Sandu Buddha, at least it should have some style.

As a result, standing on the corridor, all I saw was an old monk, a pile of wood, carved utensils, and a Buddha statue with most of its body still trapped in the darkness. It was unbelievably shabby.

"Several distinguished guests have come to visit. I don't know why?"

The monk put down the wood carving that had just started, and looked up at where Yan Jing and the others were. His eyes were clouded with gray, and his voice was difficult.

The pagoda was very quiet, and he could hear the sudden sound of wind and rain when the window was opened earlier.

Yan Jing and the others didn't come here to hide, so they immediately went down the stairs.

Yu Zhen formed a dharma seal on the way, and a translucent energy barrier covered the main entrance to prevent the voices inside from coming out.

"The few of us are the disciples of the Quanzhen Sect who went down the mountain to experience this time. We came here in order to eliminate many evil spirits in Jingjiang Town. I heard that this pagoda was built to suppress evil spirits before, and I heard from the townspeople. Sandu Buddha can resist the invasion of evil spirits, so he came to visit."

Taking the initiative to step forward, Yan Jing relied on the words that had been discussed on the way, and first explained the purpose of several people's visit,

"The situation in Naihe Town is really weird, so I want to ask Master to give me some advice."

"Eliminate the evil spirits. I don't know how many years. If you want to know something, I will do my best to cooperate."

The monk turned around, his tone was still calm, without any emotion.

Yan Jing was somewhat surprised by his calmness.

Seeing his true appearance clearly by the candlelight at the side, his pupils shrank suddenly, and suddenly realized.

Previously, they were upstairs, condescending, and could barely see the figure of the monk.

It was only at this time that they knew face to face that the monk's physical condition was extremely bad.

The loose brown-yellow monk robe covered a gray torso like dead wood, completely missing the color of the flesh and blood, only the shriveled flesh hanging on the bones, the description of the monk is also terrible Horror, the whole face is out of shape.

It's not that he doesn't want to be excited, but his decrepit body doesn't allow him to make any more expressions.

"I have evil spirits in my body, and there is no room for change. I can only use the mighty power in the pagoda to stay here and try to do a little bit for the people in the town. Even so, time is running out. "

"not much time?"

Yu Ke asked.

"The day after tomorrow is the Ghost Festival. Jingjiang Town has been occupied by those three evil spirits for many years. They changed the town and turned everything into what they wanted. You should have noticed that they spread the famous For the poison of fear."

"As long as you enter the town and see those strange scenes, unless you escape immediately, you can only get stuck in it. Even the Buddha statues I carved can barely protect ordinary people from being hurt by other evil spirits. "

"The earth official forgives sins, the gate of hell is open, the ghosts of the underworld can't compete with these demons from outside, they will only become their nourishment, and they have been gaining momentum over the years, just to completely destroy the Buddha behind me. At that time, Jingjiang Town will truly become a ghost on earth."

The monk described the current situation with difficulty, pausing for a few seconds after every sentence.

"Which three evil spirits are you talking about?"

Finally meeting someone who doesn't regard Xie Chong as a god, Yan Jing and the others unanimously heaved a sigh of relief.

What worried the few people who came along the way was that the Buddha carver, like the townspeople outside, said that it was God's blessing, so they were helpless.

Although the state of the monk is poor at the moment, he is finally able to communicate normally.

"Since the three evil spirits that were suppressed in the pagoda back then, they took advantage of the lunar eclipse to break free from the seal. Over the years, I have also figured out their current identities in Jingjiang Town through the officials outside."

The monk was silent for a while, as if thinking about it, and finally said three titles in a muffled voice,
"He Bo, beautiful girl, foolish boy!"

Xu Shi finally met a "normal person" who could communicate. Coupled with his deteriorating state, the monk faced the inquiries of Yan Jing and the others without hesitation and told all the things he knew without hiding anything.

In his eyes, no matter whether the purpose of Yan Jing and the others coming here is to save Jingjiang Town as they said, at present, it is nothing more than a dead horse as a living horse doctor. It is great to be able to make a difference, even if nothing can be done in the end , he can't help it either.

The flames on the oil lamp wick placed on the base of the Buddha statue flickered, and the shadows cast by several people fluctuated continuously on the ground of the stupa.

Less than half an hour of communication.

Several people finally had a general understanding of the situation in Jingjiang Town.

First of all, the previous conjectures of Yan Jing and the others were correct. Jingjiang Town became what it is today, precisely because of the lunar eclipse 12 years ago, which caused the seal of the pagoda to break, and the three heads that were originally sealed The evil spirit managed to escape.

As for the other evil spirits in the town, they have been attracted here one after another over the years. Now under the suppression of the three tyrannical evil spirits, they seem to have become their followers, and they will wander around at night.

Secondly, the reason why the Sandu Buddha statue carved by the monk can work is actually the golden body of the Buddha statue and a scripture left by the ancestors. The scraped gold powder is consecrated with scriptures.

It is not that the monks do not want to repair the pagoda.

The crux of the problem is that the foundation of the pagoda is damaged. If it is rebuilt, money may not be a problem. The key is that there is still a part of the sealing circle at the bottom of the pagoda that is still in operation, which is why the pagoda can persist until now.

The state of the monk is unable to repair the magic circle, and he is even more afraid that the external construction team will destroy the only remaining part.

At that time, no matter how resplendent the pagoda is, it will not help.

Finally, and the most crucial point, if you want to save Jingjiang Town, you must kill the three evil spirits before the night of the Ghost Festival, otherwise the many evil spirits and weirdness in Jingjiang Town will destroy the pagoda, and by then all the evil spirits in the town will be destroyed. Sandu Buddha statues will be invalid.

The consequences could be disastrous!

After the monk finished speaking, he signaled to Yan Jing and the others that they could stay in the pagoda for a long time, and they could use the surrounding objects at will, and then started carving Buddha statues again.

This has become his only work or spiritual sustenance in the pagoda these years.

Yan Jing and the others returned to the position where they entered through the window to discuss the next action plan.

"The current event background exploration progress is 3%."

The information prompt given by the torch proves that several people have found the right direction of action this time.

The pagoda is undoubtedly the core of the incident.

Yan Jing sat leaning against the fence outside the corridor, her eyes still fell on the monk in front of the Buddha statue, recalling what he said earlier in her mind.

"Three evil spirits escaped from the pagoda, and the task given to us by the torch happens to be to destroy the three evil spirits. Now it seems that this may imply that we must find a way to eliminate them if we want to survive this incident smoothly."

Zhao Qianwu spoke first.

Right now, there is only half an hour left before You time, since they are not sure when He Bo will get married, they must make up their minds as soon as possible.

"Two aspects. First, find out the specific location of He Bo's marriage. The first night is a great opportunity to start an operation. No matter what, since this evil spirit appeared on its own initiative, we must not let it go. Besides, we can also test it through it. Use the strength of the other two evil spirits to prepare for future actions."

Holding the bong in her left hand, Yu Ke exhaled the smoke and said in a deep voice,
"Secondly, I have learned a little about the magic circle about the seal in the pagoda. If I have a reference, even if I can't repair the seal circle in the pagoda, I can make some supplements to enhance its effect and prepare for the Hungry Ghost Festival. .”

"I can help in repairing the sealing circle. In fact, there are some materials in my space, which may come in handy."

Yu Zhen took the topic, and took the initiative to reveal that she had attainments in the magic circle, paused, and added,
"Although I don't know if it will come in handy, as long as it is a formation, there are always some things in common. If we can improve the formation in the pagoda to a certain extent, it may become a great help for us."

"Well, while there is still time, let's go down and check the sealing circle together. After that, you two will stay and try to repair it. Raja and I will be responsible for finding the location of He Bo's marriage."

Knowing that Yu Zhen knew how to form formations, Zhao Qianwu couldn't help showing a touch of joy on his face, and said repeatedly.

"I don't know anything about the magic circle, so I just stay here and watch. Don't forget that He Jianbing is still outside. He knows the existence of the pagoda. It's hard to guarantee that he won't take advantage of our unpreparedness to do the same thing as he did in the county government. things."

Several people were about to leave, but Yan Jing spoke at this moment.

The other people had no objection to his proposal, turned and left, and soon went to the inside of the pagoda to check the seal under the guidance of the monk.

Yan Jing, who stayed alone in the corridor on the second floor, watched them disappear into the shadow behind the Buddha statue, then turned around and took out an object from the space.

The zerg egg obtained in the Hive quest.

He deliberately asked to stay just now, the precaution against He Jianbing was only part of the reason, and the rest was the size of the fist in front of him, and many black and purple patterned zerg eggs appeared on the surface at some point.

If Yan Jing remembered correctly, when she first got this egg, it should have only light purple patterns.

Similar to those worms controlled by the mother worm.

According to the torch, it was time to hatch, and almost at the same time Yan Jing took it out, fine cracks appeared on the top of the egg.

Not long after, an insect with a strange shape but the size of a baby's fist crawled out of it.

Its body looks like a combination of a cicada and a praying mantis. Its torso maintains the appearance of a worm, with several tentacles extending from its tail, several arthropods growing on each side of its body, and two long and narrow claws at its front, with its head and chest The abdomen grows together, and the mouthparts are particularly ferocious.

The color of its body surface is also biased towards the female insect, with black and purple lines interlaced.

[Zerg (juvenile body)]

Status: Hungry
Traits:

[Blood Pact]: With blood as a pact, the Zerg will absolutely obey the instructions of the blood feeder.

[Energy storage]: The juvenile Zerg instinctively devours various external energies to prepare for the upcoming transformation.

(Different energies will cause the Zerg to transform into different forms, please choose carefully.)
Seeing Torch's introduction, Yan Jing smacked her lips, feeling rather disappointed.

I thought it might be an instant combat power, but I didn't expect it to be a larva without combat power.

In its current state, let alone a human, pulling a house cat at random would probably ravage it.

Where can one expect help in the fight?
Looking past the [Hunger] in its status bar, Yan Jing frowned for a moment.

Where to find food for it at this time, besides, he doesn't know what this zerg eats.
Searching for things in the space, Yan Jing suddenly raised his eyebrows.

He couldn't find any food suitable for the zerg, but he had something more interesting here.

While thinking about it, a purple-black crystal resembling a female insect appeared in the palm of my hand.

It is the essence of the female insect collected through the Spiritual Gloves.

Squeak!

Almost at the same time as the spirit appeared, the juvenile Zerg worms neighed as if they smelled some treasure.

Even though the limbs were still softened, they still squirmed and crawled towards the spirit in his hand.

Don't get me wrong, this is not a bittersweet drama where a mother and son recognize their relatives.

Yan Jing put the soul essence on the window frame, and the zerg immediately pounced on it, devouring it, swallowing it!
next second.

The purple-black lines on the body surface suddenly glowed strangely.

　There are two more later
