Fang Lan rubbed her eyebrows, which were still aching achingly. She clearly remembered that she was hit in the head by a crossbow arrow, but now she didn't find any wounds.
"The people who attacked us are demons. Among them are warriors who specialize in illusions. Sister-in-law Fang Lan, you must have been tricked.
But it's okay now, I have killed all those people. "
Bai Duo gave a random reason. Anyway, Fang Lan was a country woman and didn't have much knowledge.
"I see, then thank you Master Bai for saving me again."
Fang Lan pretended to stand up and thank him.
"You're welcome. You don't have to keep calling me Master Bai. Just call me Bai Duo."
Bai Duo smiled easily.
After this battle, everyone's bodies were extremely exhausted. The Tianyin sect gathered all the corpses together and began to burn them with ease.
The blazing flames are mixed with the aroma of burnt meat.
Thirty breaths later, a large number of red nematodes suddenly emerged from the piled corpses. They were entangled and curled up like mating snakes.
Intention to break out of the circle of flames.
"The vitality of that thing is so tenacious?" Zhou Shinian found it a bit unbelievable. Even if Ninggang was ignited by the flames for so long without defense, it would have turned into ashes.
"Ordinary fire has no special properties and its temperature is relatively low, so the effect is not very significant.
Moreover, they are not only strong in vitality, but also good at hiding.
Sister-in-law Fang Lan only had a small wound between her eyebrows, so she recovered instantly.
But most of these demons had their arms and legs broken, and some were even cut in half by sword energy.
Therefore, it is more troublesome to cure red nematodes.
But it's not impossible to cure, it's just a matter of time.
If we leave it alone and wait for them to recover, these dead people will rise again.
Turned into a monster with the memory of the original owner but likes to eat people. "
Duan Haoran deliberately avoided Fang Lan's sister-in-law and explained in a low voice to the people who were fighting just now.
Bai Duo also nodded. It turned out that these nematodes were trying to persuade people to relax their vigilance.
Now that he couldn't bear the burning of the flames, he had to get out of the corpse.
After a few more minutes, the twisting and dancing nematodes finally stopped struggling and were all dead.
This nematode is somewhat similar to the Shikui that Bai Duo encountered back then, except that Shikui doesn't seem to have much intelligence, and is extremely powerful and indestructible.
People parasitized by nematodes have slightly lower defenses, but they have the memory of a living person and are better at camouflage.
"These new monsters are catching people off guard. Even if I have opened the second divine treasure now, I cannot take it lightly."
Bai Duo felt a sense of urgency, not just from the nematode itself.
He has been thinking about how powerful the existence that created this weird creature is and where it comes from.
The aristocratic family always regards itself as the son of God and believes that the blood in the body is supreme, thus dividing the classes.
In fact, this is indeed the case. The blood in their bodies gives the family infinite power.
"Are all the aristocratic families in the world descended from Master Wuxin? After all, he once said in Yuanbao Ghost Street that he was the King of Strangers.
So where did Master Wuxin come from? "
Bai Duo recalled what he once said in his mind. Master Wuxin once mentioned that his body at that time was at war with the sky.
What is 'Heaven'?
Is it God?
There must be a God, otherwise where would the Son of God come from?
But if there really are gods, why do they allow demons to cause chaos?
And as a half-human and half-god, why did Wuxin fight with gods?
What secrets are buried in the history of the fault?
All these mysteries came one after another, making Bai Duo confused.
"Master Bai, what are you thinking about?"
Unable to notice the passage of time, it was not until Liu Zhongyong waved his hand in front of Bai Duo's eyes that he came back to his senses.
"It's nothing, it's getting late. Let's leave for the Wei Mansion as soon as possible."
Bai Duo looked at the mountain road, then compared it with the map he bought in Qingyang County before, and found that he was only less than half an hour away from the Wei Mansion.
"Wei Mansion? Is it the Wei Mansion in Qixia Town?"
Duan Haoran heard what Bai Duo said and came over to ask.
"Exactly." Bai Duo replied.
"That's great. I guess you are going to attend Master Zhengfeng's Golden Basin Washing Ceremony. Why don't we come together?"
When Bai Duo heard this, he realized that Wei Zhengfeng seemed to be a disciple of the Tianyin Sect. As a senior member of the sect, if he withdraws from the world this time, the Tianyin Sect will definitely send someone over.
"That's perfect."
Hearing this, Bai Duo was also very happy to form a team with Duan Haoran and the others. At the same time, he also asked them many things about the Demon Cult and the red nematodes on the way.
Half an hour later.
Everyone rushed to Qixia Town. Because it is located in a mountain range, the town's terrain is relatively high.
Pink clouds and clear sky just floated above our heads.
Very beautiful.
“Osmanthus stuffed with sweet-scented osmanthus—excellent osmanthus stuffed with osmanthus!!”
“Cooking cakes—cooking cakes fresh from the oven!”
There are many shops in the town, including restaurants, teahouses, pawn shops and banks, and the shouts of vendors are endless.
The main street paved with bluestones is bustling with people, not only local residents, but also foreign warriors.
They were dressed in different styles and obviously came from different sects.
"I didn't expect that Senior Wei's reputation would be so great, and his Golden Basin Washing Ceremony would attract so many martial arts comrades to attend."
Bai Duo not only sighed.
"Ha, Brother Bai, you are not a native of Yujing, so of course you don't know. My uncle Wei was the first person in the country to eliminate demons and protect the Tao.
The demon sect who killed him was frightened by the news.
So more people come here because of its reputation. "
Duan Haoran and Bai Duo chatted a lot on the road, and at the same time they also learned that Bai Duo was transferred from other places to take up the post.
The two of them are more like brothers.
It's not that Bai Duo deliberately revealed his background to others, it's just that his popularity is too strong, and Duan Haoran can be regarded as a respectable person in this area.
I had never heard of Bai Duo before.
This is very strange.
Bai Duo also knew how to use his status as a foreigner as a pretext.
"I see," Bai Duo pretended to understand. Then his eyes were attracted to a stone bridge and he asked, "Why are there so many people gathered over there?"
Duan Haoran heard the sound, looked over, and said with a smile: "This is the 'Yelao Bridge' in Qixia Town, which has a history of hundreds of years.
There is a temple next to the bridge, enshrining the statue of Yuelao, and the incense is very prosperous.
Couples who pray to Yue Lao cross the Yue Lao Bridge together, and their relationship will go smoothly and their love will last a lifetime. "
"Yuelaoqiao, haha, Brother Duan also believes in these things?" Bai Duo said with a smile.
“I don’t believe it, but according to the locals, this bridge is really effective, otherwise it wouldn’t have been as popular as it has been for hundreds of years.
In these troubled times, there are many Guanyin temples in the local area, and the Lu Zu Temple has been lost in the torrent of time, but it is still highly respected.
This is enough to explain the problem. "
Hearing what Duan Haoran said, Bai Duo also looked at it seriously.
Indeed, in this world, temples begging for marriage are unpopular. Most of them pray to gods who can ensure peace.
How could you be so keen on being one month old?
Then there is only one possibility, and that is that the people are very discerning. This bridge and this temple seem to be really smart.
