Chen Anning came to the City Lord's Mansion this time to see for himself the worms dug out from the bodies of the ancient soul monsters.

Under Ding Tianyi's control, those worms parasitized into Moxiu's body, and then gave birth to tens of thousands of terrifying monsters, launching a surprise attack on Baihua City.

There is no doubt that these worms have an extremely close relationship with the ancient soul.

Chen Anning took a long breath to calm down: "Go, let's go and have a look."

Luo Qingfeng and Liu Qingqing looked at each other, then they turned around and walked into a very deep room in the City Lord's Mansion with Chen Anning and Xiao Nianqing.

The key Luo Qingfeng carried with him unlocked the door.

crunch.

With gusts of cold wind blowing, Chen An Ning's footsteps stopped abruptly.

He suddenly felt as if he was in an ice cave, and the frightening darkness in front of him was like cold liquid that was slowly forming black ice.

In my mind, the pages of the Scroll of Heavenly Dao flickered.

[Detected a large amount of ancient soul breath——]

[Detected a large amount of ancient soul breath——]

[The information that can be obtained after analyzing the ancient soul's breath is as follows: the ancient soul's breath around the host comes from the second-generation ancient soul, and it can be preliminarily concluded that the body of the breath is the flesh and blood of the ancient soul. Soul Flesh]

This should be one of the few cases where the Heavenly Dao Book turns pages on its own initiative.

The last time this happened seemed to be in the old sword master's secret realm.

Chen Anning's movements suddenly became cautious. He looked at the darkness around him, and could vaguely see a large number of unknown creatures moving in the darkness.

As the city lord, Luo Qingfeng waved his hand, and his true energy spread around.

In the blink of an eye, the lights on the four walls of the room flickered on, illuminating the supposedly dark space.

It was at this moment that Chen Anning and Xiao Nianqing were finally able to see the creatures imprisoned in this space.

In the cage made of extremely expensive special metal, three huge worms with a body length of at least two meters are twisting and twisting around each other in the cage. They are all covered with disturbing dark green slime. Thick liquid, and their outer skin is like a rough mountain road, with concave and convex parts.

The color of the outer skin is a strange purple-black, and the manes visible to the naked eye will radiate from various parts of their bodies. These brown hairs twist and bend like tentacles, as if they act as their limbs to contact the world.

They should not need eyes, they seem to be born with the ability to capture and recognize the world, and the place similar to the head is only distributed with small black dots like pockmarks, which does not look like a mouth, let alone a mouth. like a nose.

It was when Chen Anning wondered what those black dots on the head were...

Puff.

The body of one of the black worms trembled twice, and immediately centered on the small black spot on its head, flesh and blood bloomed like petals, and the round head suddenly split into dozens of pieces, and a hole appeared inside. The blood-colored hollow, and the split flesh and blood turned into a large number of tentacles, constantly twisting as if it had dozens of lips.

"I'm a bit of a tortoise... I watched it again and it's still the same..."

Suddenly there was a local exclamation in my ear.

Chen Anning turned around, and found that the words were actually spoken by Liu Qingqing, the majestic royal princess.

"Why?" Sensing Chen Anning's surprised eyes, Liu Qingqing turned her head in embarrassment: "I used to have a teacher from Dazhong Yuan...he often said this, and I was led astray by him unconsciously."

Chen Anning showed a clear expression: "It's okay, I understand, this language is really contagious."

It's when you, a royal princess, don't say "Oh my God!" but say "I'm a bitch..."

I always feel like this style of painting is not quite right.

But Chen Anning didn't have time to talk to Liu Qingqing about the contagiousness of the northern dialect, and he couldn't help but glance at the purple-black worm locked in the cage, his face turned blue, and he almost vomited out yesterday's meal.

One thing to say, this thing is really disgusting.

Originally, Chen Anning hated bugs very much, and this thing simply grew out of Chen Anning's ugliness point.

It's just disgusting fucking open the door for disgusting - disgusting at home.

But the nausea was over, and Chen Anning quickly started to think about the business.

The content shown in the Heavenly Dao Scroll is very simple.

The bodies of these worms are actually [Ancient Soul Flesh]

In order to ensure that her guess was correct, Chen Anning asked Tiandao Juanshu: "The flesh and blood of the ancient soul? That means that these bugs were actually the flesh of a certain ancient soul?"

Crash.

The book of heaven flipped.

[Ancient soul flesh and blood: generally refers to the special organisms transformed from decayed flesh over time after the death of the second generation and below ancient souls. For example, the black worms in front of the host belong to the ancient soul flesh and blood]

"Second generation ancient soul?" Chen Anning heard another incredible word: "Can this thing be passed on to the next generation?"

[The ancient souls have the ability to reproduce themselves, and they have no gender distinction. In theory, if the ancient souls need them, they can freely split into groups of free numbers, but this will weaken their individual strength, so the ancient souls Rarely undergo fission reproduction]

To put it bluntly, after splitting, they will be weak...

Chen Anning pondered for a while: "Up until now, how many generations of ancient souls have there been?"

【Insufficient permissions】

Chen Anning glanced at Tiandao Juanshu.

This little book is not read when it comes to key issues.

But this also told Chen Anning information.

The second generation ancient soul is dead.

After all, the flesh and blood of the ancient soul is the biological body transformed from the decayed flesh after the death of the ancient soul.

Since these worms can appear, it means that the second generation ancient soul is dead.

The remaining ancient souls are the strongest and the third generation.

It's also good news.

After leaving the Sea of ​​Souls, Chen Anning immediately looked at Xiao Nianqing beside him.

now.

Xiao Nianqing's face showed some hard-to-conceal surprise, and her complexion also turned a little pale.

"Wife?" Chen An Ning thought that this bug was too disgusting, so she stretched out her hand to hold Xiao Nianqing.

Xiao Nianqing suddenly came back to her senses, she shook her head: "I'm fine."

"I feel a little sick to my stomach, let alone you." Chen Anning looked at her and said, "You should step back first, I'll go talk to Lao Luo and the others about this bug."

"……it is good."

Xiao Nianqing nodded, and immediately retreated some distance.

Chen Anning went to Luo Qingfeng and Liu Qingqing to ask about the bugs, such as whether they could find out where the bugs came from, and how the other party controlled the bugs.

After all, they are the flesh and blood of the second generation of ancient souls. Ding Tianyi must have used some extraordinary means to control them.

"..."

Looking at Chen Anning and the others who were talking, Xiao Nianqing's eyes gradually became sharper.

Of course, she didn't feel sick to her stomach because of the ugly appearance of the bug. There was another reason for her complexion to turn sour.

The jade hand gently raised the black hair on the temples, and Xiao Nianqing's thoughts suddenly escaped to other places: "Yanyan, can you hear me?"

It didn't take long.

Yu Yanyan responded, "What's wrong, Sister Nianqing?"

"Check carefully, have you entered the bottom of Liyuan recently?"

"From the bottom of the abyss? That's not a restricted area..."

Xiao Nianqing frowned: "Investigate! Thoroughly investigate all suspects!"

When Yu Yanyan heard the words, she knew that the matter was serious, and she couldn't be negligent: "Okay, I'll look back."

This matter is indeed crucial.

Xiao Nianqing raised her head, and looked at the struggling worm in the cage again, her face was livid.

Because she is the only one who knows about it.

These purple-black worms—

From the bottom of the abyss.

274. Monster

About the weird worm, Chen Anning has already discussed with Luo Qingfeng and others.

Preserve as many worms as possible without causing harm, and study these disgusting bugs carefully.

Chen Anning had to find a way to find out where these bugs came from, and also had to find a way to know how Ding Tianyi controlled the forbidden power of such an ancient soul.

Besides the issue of the ancient soul's flesh and blood, Chen Anning also learned another thing.

"Are you going to the imperial city too?"

Luo Qingfeng looked at Chen An Ning, who was a little surprised, and couldn't help laughing: "You've been promoted."

Come to think of it.

Luo Qingfeng was originally the Lord of Hundred Flowers City, and his official position was not low.

But Baihua City is a small remote city after all. Although the official position is at the level of the city lord, its influence is far less than that of those important city lords. At least in front of other city lords, Luo Qingfeng is not much different from their lieutenants.

This time Baihua City was victorious in defending the city, and the royal princess Liu Qingqing personally visited Luo Qingfeng. If he didn't get promoted and get rich this time, it would be unreasonable.

But Luo Qingfeng is a third-rank official, if he is promoted again...wouldn't he be entering the imperial city?

As if aware of Chen Anning's thoughts, Liu Qingqing, who was two heads shorter than Chen Anning, glanced at him: "It's said to be a promotion, but in fact it's just a title, and by the way, give me some innocuous things."

"Non-imperial relatives want to join the royal family. Since the founding of the country, there have been very few successful ones."

The meaning of Liu Qingqing's words is very clear. With Luo Qingfeng's current status, it is still extremely difficult to enter the royal family.

Fortunately, Luo Qingfeng himself didn't care about joining the royal family, it might be better to say that he hoped that he could stay in Hundred Flowers City.

Chen Anning frowned slightly: "Then if I become the princess's young master this time, do I count as part of the royal family?"

"It counts as half at most." Liu Qingqing glanced at Chen Anning, "If you say it, you can be considered a member of the royal family. Of course, it's only in name, and basically no one will be frightened by this."
