All this happened in a flash, and Su Heng's reaction was not slow.

But he was still a step slower.

A few white fungi were blown away by the wind and surged outward, and finally some of them fell on Su Li and Su Shang.

"Su Li--"

Swish!

Su Heng flashed and appeared beside Su Li.

He reached out and held Su Li's arm, and red spots were emerging on the white arm.

"I--" Su Li's eyes widened, and she felt a strong tingling sensation coming from her arm, as if something was taking root in her flesh and blood.

"This is the power of the demon!" She frowned and quickly realized what had just happened.

The strength from the Qingmu Changsheng Gong was injected into her left arm, and a layer of hazy green light appeared on her arm.

She could cultivate in the Bone Forging Realm.

The strength could not completely eradicate it, and could only suppress it temporarily.

Tsk!

Su Heng injected part of the fire poison into Su Li's arm.

The hot and scorching force swept over, and Su Li felt as if she was held by a red-hot iron clamp, and a sharp pain came.

Su Li gritted her teeth and did not scream.

"It should be fine." Su Heng loosened his sister's arm with a serious face.

The wrist that Su Heng had just held was red, and there were even obvious signs of burns, but Su Li did not care.

"Xiao Shang."

She half-crouched on the ground and saw that Su Shang's consciousness had become blurred.

Dots of red spots had appeared on Su Shang's neck. The latter subconsciously reached out to grab it, but was held by Su Li.

"What should I do?" Su Li raised her head and stared at Su Heng.

"I don't know..." Su Heng's face was solemn, "His physique is too weak, I can't use my strength to help him detoxify."

"I, I should be able to suppress it temporarily." Su Li said, "But this is not a long-term solution. If we can get rid of that demon, it may bring a turning point."

Xiao Qing appeared silently beside Su Li.

He took out a few silver needles from his bosom and handed them to Su Li. These silver needles were made of special materials and could integrate the strength of the warriors.

The needle tip was shining with a faint green light and pierced into the neck, but no blood oozed out.

"It's so itchy..."

Su Shang opened his eyes slowly and saw Su Heng's serious expression, "Sister, second brother, have I gotten into trouble again?"

Su Shang's voice was weak and apologetic.

"It's none of your business, have a good sleep." Su Heng comforted him softly, "Everything will be fine when you wake up."

Su Li reached out and gently patted the back of Su Shang's head, and the latter fell asleep on Su Li's shoulder.

Su Gui had a look of fear on his face.

A living person who was lucky enough just now suddenly took out his heart alive.

If it weren't for the previous incident with the water ghost that raised Su Gui's fright threshold, this scene alone would have scared Su Gui out of his heart.

He didn't dare to speak just now.

Because Su Heng looked serious, such things rarely happened since he started practicing martial arts.

"What happened? What, what happened?" Su Gui pointed at Su Shang who was in a coma, and then pointed at the guard who had been burned into a mummy. The expression on his face had gone beyond fear, and was more of a numbness of not knowing what to do.

"Changqing County... a demon has sneaked into it, and the situation is very dangerous now." Su Heng said softly, "No one should go out. In addition, screen the people in the mansion to prevent what happened just now from happening again."

"Another demon... What happened to this world?"

Su Gui looked at the thick gray and white, almost colloid-like strange fog outside the courtyard wall, and couldn't help asking again, "How does it compare to the previous water ghost? Which of the two is more dangerous?"

"This demon is ten times more dangerous than the water ghost." Su Heng added, "At least ten times."

Su Gui shuddered.

Su Li checked everyone in the mansion.

Fortunately,

Similar situations did not happen again, and the remaining people were not infected by the mycelium.

"Where's the water and food? Are these enough?" In the courtyard, the bonfire was crackling. Su Heng sat on a bench with a big horse and a golden sword, and threw the split firewood into the flames.

It was only noon now.

According to normal reason, it was the brightest and warmest time of the day.

But the strange fog enveloped the city, and it was pitch dark outside, and most of the sunlight was filtered out. The courtyard was so gloomy that a bonfire had to be lit. With the help of the red and warm flames, the despair and fear in people's hearts could be gradually dispelled.

Su Heng sat alone in the middle of the crowd.

He was tall and burly, and his cold face was set off by the dark red flames.

On his left stood Su Li and Xiao Qing, on his right stood Su Gui and the head of the guards Zhao Hu, and outside were a group of confidants in the family, about a dozen people.

The more chaotic and dangerous the situation was.

Su Heng needed to appear tougher, so that he could give people a sense of security and avoid unnecessary chaos.

"Because a batch of goods just came from the town and has not yet been delivered to the business, the food reserves are still sufficient." A middle-aged scholar in a long gown and a black soft hat on his head said tremblingly, "As for water, we can get water from the well, and there is no shortage of water."

"How many days can it last?"

"If you don't count the young master, it will be no problem to hold on for a month." The accountant replied.

'You make me look like a good-for-nothing when you say that. ' Su Heng sighed and waved his hand, "I know, you don't have to worry about me."

"What about you..." Su Heng looked at Su Li and Xiao Qing, "Can your formation be maintained?"

"Yes."

Su Li nodded, and she said again, "But we have to send people to patrol to prevent people from climbing over the wall from outside."

"Leave this to me, Zhao Hu, don't worry, young master!" Zhao Hu on the other side patted his chest and said generously.

"People outside may spread the disease, you should avoid direct contact."

Su Heng looked at his father Su Gui again, "We should have a batch of crossbows and spears at home, just take them out and use them."

No matter what dynasty it is, privately storing military equipment is a serious crime.

But now that demons are emerging one after another and the world is in chaos, there is no scruple about these things.

"Yeah." Su Gui nodded stiffly. He was a relatively honest person. This batch of weapons was once his biggest secret.

But the Su family made their fortune by trading companies. If they went out to trade, they would not be able to do without these weapons.

Su Gui was once worried about this matter and could not sleep all day and night. He did not expect that when it really came in handy, it would be in such a situation.

"It's really unpredictable, it's unpredictable." Su Gui sighed a few words, "Zhao Hu, call a few people later and go to the warehouse with me to take these things out."

"Okay!" Zhao Hu grinned. He was a fearless person.

"What about you?" Su Li looked at Su Heng with a smile, "What are your plans?"

"Give me the monster-hunting plate." Su Heng said, "I'll go outside and see if I can find the real body of this demon."
