After a long time, Mo Juren finally retracted his finger, but his expression became more solemn at this moment.
Seeing this, Yu Xing's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that it was really a serious problem?
"Brother Mo, you...what did you find out?" At this moment, he couldn't care less about the pain and asked urgently, with an uncontrollable tremor in his voice.
"Brother, don't panic, we are not at the end of our rope." Mo Juren seemed to have just come back to his senses and quickly comforted the other party.
"Then... what is the reason?" After hearing the comforting words, Yu Xing felt slightly relieved, but he still did not dare to let go and asked again.
"Yes..." He was about to explain, but at this moment, there was another messy footsteps outside the room. Mo Juren's heart moved, and he immediately stopped talking until the door opened, revealing the other Qi-refining period monks stationed at the spiritual mine.
"I've met Senior Mo. I'll come over and check on Senior Yu."
"I'm determined." Hearing this, Yu Xing felt a little warmer in his heart. However, that's all. At this moment, he doesn't care about these, but is eager to know what is going on with his body? Thinking of this, he looked at Mo Juren again,
"Brother Mo..."
"Brother, don't worry." Mo Juren raised his hand to interrupt the other party without saying anything. He stood up and walked slowly around the room. There was a glimmer of light in his eyes, obviously he was really searching for something.
This scene made everyone else a little surprised. Isn't it the body that has the problem? What are you looking for in the room?
Just when everyone was confused, Mo Juren suddenly stopped and stared at a corner. A white light flashed in his hand, and several fireballs shot out.
"boom……"
There was an explosion, and a half-foot-deep hole was suddenly blasted into the originally flat ground. After the dust cleared, an extremely terrifying scene appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"This...this is..."
Not just for fun, all the other monks in the Qi Refining Stage looked horrified. There were countless nameless black insects crawling densely in the pit. They were black in color, shaped like hair, and only about an inch in length. They looked extremely weird. .
"As expected." The moment he saw the black insect, Mo Juren's eyes showed a hint of understanding.
"Mo...Brother Mo, what on earth is this? Is it related to my headache?" Yu Xing asked quickly, suppressing the surprise in his heart.
"This is a blood marrow worm, a weird Gu worm that demonic monks like to sacrifice the most. The adult worm is not terrible, even a simple fire bomb can kill it." As he said that, the fire ball in his hand was sacrificed again. After a burst of flames, the pothole has become clean.
At this time, Mo Juren continued,
"The scariest part of the blood marrow worm is the larvae. Due to their habits, the female worm usually lays its eggs in other living beings as a parasite. Once hatched successfully, it will burrow into the human medulla and continue to gnaw and grow. .”
"Blood Marrow Worm!" Yu Xing asked with a hint of doubt in his eyes,
"But, I've checked many times with my spiritual sense and haven't found any eggs?"
"This is where this demonic insect is in trouble." He seemed to have expected that the other party would ask such a question, and explained,
"The larvae are different from the adults. They are extremely small in size, and they also have the talent of hiding spiritual power fluctuations. Unless the spiritual consciousness is strong enough or you have a certain understanding of the insect, it is extremely difficult to find it. Mo is also born from a spiritual beast. Shan, I usually dabble in some strange insects and beasts, and only then did I know about the existence of this insect."
After a pause, he continued,
"As for Brother Yu, you are probably parasitized in the brain by larvae. After hatching, they start to eat the body. This is why you show symptoms of severe pain."
"Is it serious?" Yu Xing asked anxiously.
"Brother Yu, don't worry, things are not as terrible as you think." Mo Juren suddenly smiled and reassured, and said,
"This nest of blood marrow worms is just wild, and it should be an accident that it appears here. It is not a special voodoo worm that has been sacrificed by demonic monks, and it is not very strong. It might be a bit more troublesome for a mortal. The monks have magical power to protect their bodies, so their lives are not affected. of."
It's so painful even if it's not serious. If it's really serious, what's the difference between it and being fatal? Thinking of the repeated attacks in the past few days, Yu Xing could not help but tremble.
"Fellow Daoist Mo, tell me directly, how can we get rid of this evil insect?"
"Two ways." Mo Juren did not hide anything and said directly,
"The first is to refine the Yang Marrow Pill. This pill has extremely yang properties and has the miraculous effect of refining the divine marrow. It is especially effective against blood marrow worms. Just one pill can completely kill them. However, the refining of this pill requires It’s a bit troublesome to make, as one of the main ingredients requires a red sun grass that is at least two hundred years old.”
Naturally, I have heard of Chiyangcao Yuxing, and it is not difficult to buy one that is several decades old. However, although those that are over two hundred years old are not scarce, they are not easy to find.
"What about the second kind?" The first kind is not realistic for the time being. Even if you want to buy it, it will not happen in a day or two. It will take a long time to search and a certain amount of opportunity.
"The second one is simpler. Just take the ordinary Jingling Powder. After taking it, the blood marrow larvae can fall into a deep sleep and delay their growth. However, the potency of Jingling Powder is limited and can only last for about seven days, so it needs to be taken continuously. . Moreover, as the frequency of taking the medicine increases, the potency of the medicine will gradually decrease, and it will still be very troublesome in the end."
At this point, Yu Xing had roughly understood his situation. He said there were two choices, but in fact there was only one. Jingling Powder can only be used temporarily to delay the development of larvae. To truly solve the problem, you still need to refine the Yang Marrow Pill.
However, not to mention the difficulty of refining the Yang Marrow Pill, even the recipe for this pill is extremely precious. I have never heard of it before, so where can I find it?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at Mo Juren again and asked: "Since Brother Mo mentioned the Yang Marrow Pill, do you know the method of refining this pill?"
"I do know." Mo Juren nodded, paused, and suddenly said,
"It's just that this elixir recipe is secretly passed down by the elders and its value is not low, so..."
"Brother Mo, please help me and save my life." After hearing that the other party had this recipe, Yu Xing's originally lost expression suddenly became energetic and he begged.
"Forget it, after all, it's about Brother Yu's life, and Mo can't just die without saving him." After a moment of silence, he seemed to have finally made a decision, and then he took out two jade slips from his storage bag and took one of them. After engraving the blank copy, he handed it to the other party and said,
"This is the recipe for the Yang Marrow Pill. Let's price it according to the normal price for the Foundation Establishment Phase recipe. What do you think, Brother Yu?"
"This..." The jade slip is very light, but it makes Yu Xing feel heavy and heavy when held in his hand. He suddenly thought that he had betrayed the other party's information to the Yan family not long ago, and almost put the other party's life in danger. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with the other party, otherwise not only would he have harmed the other party, but he would also have suffered retribution.
"I won't say more. From now on, Brother Mo will have errands. As long as someone delivers a message to Tianque Castle, Yu will not hesitate to go through fire and water." After saying that, he took off a storage bag from his waist and handed it to him with both hands. The other party continued,
"The spiritual stones here are my little savings, and the quantity should be about the same. If there are some discrepancies, I hope Brother Mo won't care about it."
"Okay, Mo believes in my brother's character." Mo Juren reached out and took it without checking it, and just agreed with a smile. As for the other party's commitment, just listen to it. After all, they also spent spiritual stones, so there is not that much friendship.
Of course, no one showed it on the surface, everyone was smiling, and for a while, the atmosphere became soothing.
