Origin

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Wu Baiye asked nervously, "What kind of poison is it?"

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "It's not poison, it's insect eggs."

"Insect eggs?" Wu Baiye was confused.

Wu Zhongyuan did not answer, but stretched out his right hand, extending water spiritual energy to draw the water out of the pond.

This scene made Wu Baiye take a breath of cold air. The pool in front of him was three feet square, with a depth of up to seven feet, and contained a lot of water. However, Wu Zhongyuan drew all the water out of the pool with just a few movements, as if I poured out a cup of overnight herbal tea.

Before Wu Baiye could recover, Wu Zhongyuan had already grabbed a gray-white thing from the bottom of the pool. When Wu Zhongyuan placed the thing on the bluestone beside the pool, everyone realized that what he had grabbed from the bottom of the pool was a monkey. , to be precise, it was a dead monkey, and to be more precise, it was a dead monkey with a ferocious face and a hairless body.

While Wu Baiye was looking at the dead monkey intently, Wu Zhongyuan asked casually, "Is there such a monkey in Da Kuang?"

"Monkeys are rare in Da Kuang, and occasionally they are ordinary macaques. I have never seen such ugly and ferocious monkeys, and they are so big." Wu Baiye shook his head and said, after saying that, he looked at the people accompanying him. , everyone also shook their heads.

Wu Baiye pulled out his short knife and asked, "Do you want to cut open the monkey's body and examine it carefully?"

Wu Zhongyuan nodded.

Wu Baiye stepped forward with a knife in hand, intending to take action.

The autopsy was so dirty and bloody that naturally it was not Wu Baiye's turn to do it himself. A group of red and blue warriors hurriedly stopped Wu Baiye and took his place.

When the monkey's stomach is cut open, the first thing that comes out is a strong stench, and then the five internal organs and intestines come out.

Huang Di and the city lord were both present. Although the warrior in charge of the autopsy was nauseated by the stench, he reached out and dug out all the internal organs and intestines without avoiding the filth.

While taking out the five internal organs and intestines, a milky-white object that was not an organ appeared in front of everyone's eyes. This object was about a foot long and three inches thick, much like an oversized bee pupa.

Seeing this object, the warrior in charge of the autopsy took it out from among the many organs. But as soon as he picked it up, he looked horrified, yelled, and threw it backhand.

Wu Zhongyuan and Wu Baiye stood aside. Unless they were extremely frightened, the autopsy warrior would not be so panicked. However, Wu Zhongyuan did not blame him, because he was also startled the moment he saw the object clearly.

There is a hideous and ugly human face on one end of this thing.

Before the white thing could land, Wu Baiye stretched out his spiritual energy to catch it from the air and placed it aside in an open space.

No matter what this thing is, it is already dead at this time. After a closer look, I find that this bee-like creature does not have a real human face and features. What looks like a human face and features are actually several parts of its body. spot.

Wu Zhongyuan turned to look at Wu Baiye. Wu Baiye knew why Wu Zhongyuan was looking at him and slowly shook his head, "This subordinate has never seen anything like this before."

Wu Zhongyuan looked at the others again, and everyone shook their heads wherever he looked.

The warrior in charge of the autopsy was embarrassed in front of the city lord and the Yellow Emperor. He was eager to regain his face, so he stepped forward with a knife and wanted to cut open the white strange insect to find out what was going on.

Before the warrior could take action, Wu Zhongyuan called out to him, "Don't worry, there are eggs in the water, which means that this strange insect is an adult, and its belly is undoubtedly full of eggs. I will do it myself."

After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, the autopsy warrior turned to look at Wu Baiye, and only stepped back when Wu Baiye nodded.

Wu Zhongyuan condensed a stone knife and stepped forward to cut open the strange insect with a human face. When the skin was broken, white liquid like pus spurted out.

Wu Zhongyuan stretched out his hand to smear a little and took a closer look. The pus-like thing was indeed the eggs of the strange human-faced insect. Each egg was only the size of a needle tip. It was still active and ready to move, but it was not enough to penetrate the skin. Flesh and blood, this thing is afraid of wind and dryness. If the mountain wind blows, it will die immediately.

After a brief moment of pondering, Wu Zhongyuan squatted down, dipped his right index finger into the pus water, and sucked the eggs into the flesh and blood of his fingertips.

"Your Majesty." Wu Baiye was very nervous.

"It doesn't matter." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said. It is now certain that this matter was caused by malicious poisoning, but the human race has more than one enemy. It is necessary to understand the characteristics of this insect egg to deduce which group is responsible for this matter.

When insect eggs enter the body and encounter spiritual energy, they die immediately.

Wu Zhongyuan followed suit and dipped his hand again. At this time, his control of the spiritual energy had reached the level of perfection. He deliberately restrained himself from the Taixuan spiritual energy that was swimming in his body. Even the Taixuan spiritual energy insect eggs could not bear it. Entering the body means death.

It was changed to a large dark blue hole, and the insect eggs were still intolerable.

If it is changed to the light red cave god, the insect eggs can struggle for a while, but will still be killed by the spiritual energy. Wu Zhongyuan knows in his heart that this kind of insect eggs is ineffective against those who practice Qi, and is only aimed at those without spiritual energy. Ordinary people.

Finally, the spirit energy was completely withdrawn and the eggs were allowed to enter the body. After entering the human body, the eggs immediately hatched and penetrated into the blood vessels, sucking blood crazily and flowing with the blood to all parts of the body.

Under normal circumstances, insect eggs will have a dormant period of varying lengths after entering the human body, but in order to determine the characteristics of the egg faster, Wu Zhongyuan accelerated the blood flow to help it grow quickly.

Some things don't raise it, and I don't know what it is. As the eggs hatch and grow, Wu Zhongyuan gradually perceives the characteristics of this strange human-faced insect. This thing should be a creature like an iron worm, which can release nerves. Hormones control host behavior.

He had encountered similar things in modern times, in Zuo Ci's underwater mausoleum. The ironworm he saw that time, or to be precise, was a yellow snake-like creature. Compared with the one he saw this time. It's not the same, but although these creatures have different shapes, they have a common characteristic, which is that they can control the host's behavior.

Reiki is a kind of energy, and nutrition and blood are actually a kind of energy. The human-faced monster cannot tolerate aura, but it can absorb the nutrition and blood of the human body. Wu Zhongyuan used the strategy of stimulating the growth of the seedlings to make the monster unable to tolerate it. The spiritual energy is transformed into blood energy that the monster insects can absorb, and then supplied frantically, striving to help the monster insects mature in the shortest possible time.

Driven by blood gas, the human-faced monster grows rapidly and releases more and more neurohormones. This neurohormone can affect a person's mind, gradually destroying and replacing it, and the human-faced monster itself does not They do not have very mature spiritual consciousness, and their consciousness is limited to self-survival and reproduction, which is also the instinct of all living things. They will not kill the host, but will only occupy the host's body and let the host become their nutritional supplier and Practitioners of reproducing offspring, and the way they reproduce is by biting. The second-generation eggs will be concentrated in the host's mouth and spread through bites.

After finding out the characteristics of this strange human-faced insect, Wu Zhongyuan opened his eyes. At the same time, he sent out his thoughts, opened the Dantian, Taiyuan spiritual energy surged throughout his body, and all the eggs and adults died instantly. Dissipates like ashes from the body.

While Wu Zhongyuan was "testing the law", Wu Baiye and others had been waiting anxiously. When Wu Zhongyuan opened his eyes, Wu Baiye stepped forward nervously, "Your Majesty."

Wu Zhongyuan was summarizing at this time and was not in a hurry to speak. The ancients knew almost nothing about parasites and did not understand what the incubation period was. He had to explain it to them intuitively in a way that they could understand.

After pondering, Wu Zhongyuan said, "This poison was maliciously put by others. The poisoned person will not be poisoned immediately. The shortest time will be the same day, the longest time may be half a month later, and the poisonous person will lose consciousness." If you bite others, the person bitten will be poisoned. Most people will not be poisoned immediately. It varies from person to person, ranging from a few hours to half a month."

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, everyone looked at each other in shock. Many people in these two besieged cities had been bitten by these people, but most of them showed no signs of poison.

"May I ask, Your Majesty, if there is a way to rescue me?" a red-qi warrior asked eagerly.

"This poison likes heat and hates cold. People who have been poisoned but have not yet developed the poison can detoxify by taking a large amount of salt water," Wu Zhongyuan said, "or it can be used to transfer spiritual energy to them. The purple energy only needs ten drops of water to enter the body. It will remove the poison.”

After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, everyone felt a little relieved. Wu Baiye asked again, "Excuse me, Your Majesty, how do you identify someone who has been poisoned?"

"Red spots will appear on the palms of both hands." Wu Zhongyuan replied.

As soon as these words came out, several red and blue warriors immediately apologized and resigned. Wu Zhongyuan knew that they were going to two villages to screen and treat patients, so he waved his hand and let them go.

Wu Shiyun, the deputy city lord of Dakuang, was also accompanying her. She cultivated herself in the mountains and could release her spiritual energy. She also asked for forgiveness and went down the mountain to treat the villagers.

After a few people left, Wu Zhongyuan reached for his right hand again and broke down the skin and flesh of the monkey corpse. He could not turn the flesh and blood body into reality through spiritual energy, but he could separate the bones and flesh of the dead corpse.

He did this for only one purpose, and that was to determine the cause of the monkey's death.

After the fur and flesh were separated, Wu Zhongyuan found the cause of the monkey's death. The monkey had its neck broken and died. This made it difficult to continue to explore. Wringing the neck only requires brute force and does not require the use of spiritual energy at all. If the opponent uses spiritual energy to kill the monkey, you can roughly judge the spiritual energy cultivation level of the person who killed the monkey by the fracture of the monkey's bones, but it is impossible to judge by breaking the neck.

After the inspection, Wu Zhongyuan activated the Fire Dragon Qi to burn the monkey corpse, then lifted off the ground and looked down at the ground. He needed to observe the area where the water flows through the pool to determine the possible spread of the epidemic.

Since the amount of water in the pool is not large, and there is no obvious river channel on the ground, it is inconvenient to search at high altitude, so we have to go back to low altitude and follow the direction of the pool water to find it.

The pond was divided into two, with two streams flowing from east to west. Wu Zhongyuan looked to the west, and Wu Baiye looked to the east. After half a stick of incense, Wu Baiye lifted up his energy and started searching from high altitude.

Wu Zhongyuan had already found the end of the river on the west side. Since it was the dry season, the amount of water in the river was not large. Thirty miles westward, the branch was almost dry. But it was not good news for Wu Baiye to lift the Qi up, which showed that the small tributaries merged into the mainstream river.

After finding the end of the West Branch, Wu Zhongyuan turned back eastward, caught up with Wu Baiye, and explored eastward with him.

This time was no different than modern times. There were very few villages at this time. There were no villages around the river. After searching eastward for dozens of miles, there was no village siege. After searching for more than a hundred miles, the river suddenly changed its course to the north.

The rivers in our country basically run from west to east, but some do not follow this principle, as is the case with this current one.

Seeing the river suddenly change course to the north, Wu Zhongyuan's heart suddenly pricked up. Dakuang is the northernmost walled city in the Central Plains, and the Beijun camp is directly north of Dakuang...
