As the acting director of the Civil Security Bureau, Song Ruyuan also went through a period of crazy fighting on the front lines.
In terms of combat awareness, he is no worse than Yu Hongfei and others, and is even more sophisticated.
At this moment, when he heard the shouting in the distance, he realized that it was Su Mo's voice.
But I experienced the scam of two mirror people.
No one can guarantee that the person who spoke out is really Su Mo.
And if we let go of the two shadow classes in front of us.
Considering the injuries and poison on his body, he probably wouldn't have the energy to kill him on the spot.
But on the other hand, if it was really Su Mo who made the noise, this weird thing is indeed what people need.
Then it might become very troublesome after killing it, and even affect the overall situation.
In an instant, Song Ruyuan's mind was spinning with thoughts.
And the offensive in his hands did not stop.
It has fallen in the blink of an eye.
But it deviated slightly from the original direction and went further downwards.
In one strike, the lower bodies of the two shadow-level bodies were cut off by the sharp sword light.
And when cut off, it was crushed into nothingness.
The two monsters howled miserably and fell to the ground, instantly being severely injured.
At this time, Su Mo's figure slowly solidified nearby.
Seeing Weigui trying his best to recover on the ground, Su Mo immediately understood what Song Ruyuan did, and couldn't help but secretly praise him.
After all, they are all weird. As long as they are not completely dead, even if they are severely injured, they can recover.
Not to mention that the saint he needs is just a shell. As long as he doesn't die, it doesn't matter what he does.
After confirming that there were no major problems with the two candidate saints, Su Mo turned to look at Song Ruyuan, whose face was green and green, and said with a smile:
"Looking at you like this, you can participate in a body painting exhibition."
Song Ruyuan's lips were black and blue. As the power of the True Source Pill receded, the toxins in his body became more severe and now seemed to be close to uncontrollable.
He looked at Su Mo beside him and said helplessly:
"Now it's not a question of whether to exhibit or not. This poison is beyond imagination. If we don't find a solution, I will die."
"Don't worry, I'm with you on this trip and I will never let you die in this place."
Su Mo said with determination, reaching out and patting him on the shoulder.
Song Ruyuan couldn't help but reveal a wry smile as he listened, thinking that Su Mo was comforting him.
Only those who are poisoned will know how terrifying this toxin is.
According to Song Ruyuan's guess, even Level 7 can only temporarily suppress the poison.
I'm afraid this thing was used to deal with powerful people in the mage realm before.
After so many years of dilution, such power remains.
If it were the original toxin, he would probably evaporate on the spot.
But even now, death is not far away.
At most, I can only hold on for another three or four minutes.
Even if Su Mo carries the antidote pill with him, it may only be able to extend his life for a few minutes.
Song Ruyuan was about to tell him some funeral arrangements and precautions.
Suddenly, he noticed a terrifying heat coming from the big hand on his shoulder.
The heat was like hot spring water, soaking into his body instantly and spreading rapidly in all directions.
As the heat spread, the blood in his body seemed to be boiling, and his whole body began to emit steam out of thin air.
What made Song Ruyuan feel extremely shocked.
Along with this strong pulse of blood.
The strange poison that spread throughout his body and was extremely tightly integrated with the surrounding flesh and blood showed signs of breaking away.
The heat coming from his body quickly took on color.
From light green to dark green to pale green.
When the heat finally turns white again.
Song Ruyuan felt extremely weak.
But it is not like it will die at any time like before.
"Let's take a few Peiyuan Pills to replenish our health."
Su Mo threw a few pills to him casually.
Song Ruyuan glanced at him gratefully, without saying anything else. He took the elixir and drank it. He sat cross-legged on the ground on the spot, digesting the power of the medicine, and recovering his damaged body.
Su Mo took the opportunity to combine the extracted green poisonous gas into a ball, and continued to compress it.
In the end, it condensed into a drop of green liquid.
“It looks like it’s a deadly toxin produced by some kind of mage-level monster.
It's a pity that after such a long time, the toxicity has weakened a lot.
If it's used to kill enemies, it's better than nothing.
Maybe we can do research to see if we can create a corresponding detoxification pill. "
Su Mo thought to himself and sealed the venom into a jade bottle, preparing to keep it for future research.
At this time, Chen Shuo on the side quickly stepped forward and said with lingering fear:
"Master Su, thank you for coming in time, otherwise Director Song and I would be trapped here."
"What's going on here, you guys? Why did Old Song get such a powerful poison?"
Chen Shuo smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"I'm afraid you have to ask Director Song himself about this. He was already poisoned when I came over."
Chen Shuo briefly recounted what had happened before.
Soon, Song Ruyuan recovered from the injuries in his body and chatted with Su Mo about his experiences in the past period.
The two parties had just finished exchanging information, when pale-faced Yao Wenkai and others came here with twelve-man talismans on their faces in utter embarrassment.
Su Mo was missing from the team. Although he kept the God Worship Bell, the top level was not so easy to activate.
Yao Wenkai, Shi Hao and others used their strength and took turns using each other, thus ensuring that the team could reach Liu's house safely.
Even so, everyone was extremely short-changed.
Su Mo called the God Worship Bell into his hand, turned to look at the two shadow-class people on the ground who were suppressed by his mental power, and said in a concentrated voice:
"Looking at the sacrificial robes they are wearing, they should be the candidate saints left behind. Next, we should choose one of them to be the saint to welcome this time!"
Hearing this, Yao Wenkai and others looked at the two weirdos, their faces twitching slightly.
I saw these two people. The one on the left was completely rotten. There were countless tiny black insects crawling in and out of her body, as if they had built a nest inside her body.
And those were not ordinary flies, but were transformed by her resentment, showing the tragic situation when she was dying.
Obviously, this candidate saint escaped the first wave of changes in the village, but in the end she still couldn't escape the trap of hunger and died in an extremely miserable way.
As for the right side, although there are no flies that can cause trypophobia, it still looks no better.
There were countless bite marks on her body, as if she had been devoured by wolves. In some places, black tendons and pale bones could even be seen.
If they hadn't been wearing very symbolic sacrificial robes, no one would have believed that they were candidate saints during their lifetime.
"I don't think this method of selecting a saint from among them is very reliable."
Song Ruyuan frowned slightly and thought:
"Not to mention that these two guys are already dead. They are still at the Black Shadow level and are very uncontrollable. If anything goes wrong during the ceremony, it will be a failure.
Since the twelve-person talisman can be made with strange objects, it might as well be made with this saint. I happen to have a similar strange object with me. "
As soon as Song Ruyuan finished speaking, before Su Mo had time to respond, the two shadow classes on the ground immediately started struggling violently.
When Yao Wenkai and others saw this scene, they were all startled and reflexively stepped back, their faces full of alertness.
There was a look of surprise on Su Mo's face.
He slightly let go of his mental pressure.
Then I heard the candidate saint on the left struggling to say:
"I...I want to be a saint!"
"Can you actually speak?"
Yao Wenkai and others looked incredulous.
Su Mo soon became relieved.
Many of the monsters outside can speak, but the monsters in Chenjia Village have experienced a long time, and many of them are the mutated remnants of the original, and they have almost no sense at all.
Basically, like the Han Jun, Han Polu and other human talismans that we met before, they are all weird monsters with only instinct.
But he has also encountered insidious monsters like Chen Wanxing.
Theoretically speaking, the candidate saint in front of him is definitely not as good as Chen Wanxing. He is more similar to Han Polu.
And being able to speak on the spot shows that she has an unimaginable obsession with the word saint, and she even holds onto it after death.
Su Mo was about to have a few words with her.
At this time, the candidate saint on the right seemed to have regained the ability to speak after a long time of preparation, and shouted in a hoarse and sad voice:
"I, I also want to be a saint!!"
Feeling the powerful obsession contained in her voice, Song Ruyuan and others all looked at each other.
Su Mo also had a headache. He had never experienced anything like this before.
Isn't it too outrageous that Weigui continues his obsession and continues to fight?
After thinking for a while, he said:
“You should all know that there is only one saint.
Unfortunately, the previously selected saint died unexpectedly.
We are here not only to welcome you, but also to select the next saint.
It is destined that only one of you can leave with us and enjoy the admiration of everyone.
So who should you choose? "
"Choose me!!"
"Choose me!!"
"I am worthy of being a saint!"
"I am the only one qualified to be a saint! Lord God Envoy, don't be deceived by her!"
"Liu Hanyan, what are you talking about, you little bitch? Believe it or not, I tore your mouth off?!"
"Liu Huayu, you are just wishful thinking! Are you worthy of becoming a saint?!"
…
Seeing the two candidate saints arguing fiercely at the scene, everyone was speechless for a while.
If it weren't for their terrifying and weird looks, just listening to them, I would have thought they were shrews vying for the position of saint.
Who would have thought that these two people would be so obsessed with the title of saint after death?
Su Mo saw their attitude, cleared his throat, and continued:
"Well, in order to show fairness, I will ask you some questions next. You must answer our questions as much as possible. Whoever answers the most questions may succeed to the position of saint. Of course, whoever dares to lie to me , you will immediately be deprived of the qualification to become a saint!"
After listening to Su Mo's words, the two shadow-level men nodded hurriedly, as well-behaved as children.
Then, Su Mo asked:
"Do you know where the furnace is?"
Liu Hanyan, whose face was crawling with flies on the left, quickly said:
"I know I know!!"
She spoke so excitedly that flies kept spraying out of her mouth.
Su Mo quickly increased the level of mental shielding, and then asked:
"tell me the story."
Liu Hanyan said hurriedly:
"Liu Ruoyu took the sacred furnace and took it with him to the festival."
Su Mo immediately frowned:
"I know this. What I'm asking is that after the problem occurred after the festival, have you seen the sacred furnace?"
Liu Hanyan became mute.
Liu Huayu on the other side said excitedly:
"I know I know!!"
"One day I was practicing the sacrificial dance at the shrine, and I overheard a conversation between Liu Ruoyu and a sacrificial guard, saying that they were going to elope with the sacred furnace or something.
Later, I reported this matter to my grandma, but she didn't believe me at all and beat me severely.
Later, when that bitch Liu Ruoyu heard the news, she also came over and taught me a lesson.
Now that she is dead, she has even lost her position as a saint. She really deserves it!
Hahahahahaha..."
Listening to her wild laughter, everyone's faces twitched.
Liu Ruoyu is dead, are you still alive?
At this time, Song Ruyuan who was on the side suddenly took out a small oven and asked Su Mo:
"Is the furnace you are talking about the one in my hand?"
Su Mo looked at the red oven and was slightly surprised.
He didn't expect that the stove would fall into Song Ruyuan's hands.
Regardless of its grade or appearance, this furnace should be a sacred furnace recorded in the classics.
"Where did you find it?"
"Snatched from a level 4 monster."
Song Ruyuan recalled:
"Now that I think about it, the clothes he is wearing seem to be related to the duties of a guard. He must be the sacrificial guard who Liu Ruoyu met privately."
Su Mo nodded slightly, feeling a big stone fall in his heart.
In this way, the problem of "receiving the saint" this time can be completely solved.
Let’s not mention the saint for the moment. Even if there is no candidate saint, we can still use methods like the Twelve Person Talisman to make up for it.
But it is not easy to handle the sacred furnace.
After all, it is one of the three major sacrificial vessels related to the festival.
If you can't get it, you have to find a way to find it next.
Now Song Ruyuan actually got the sacred furnace in advance, which solved the Liu family's biggest problem.
The next trouble will be the Chen family's turn.
Really speaking, the Chen family is the biggest trouble.
After all, the Holy Lord, one of the three major sacrificial vessels, has always been in the hands of the high priest.
The high priest must go to the temple to preside over the ceremony.
This means that the Holy Lord is likely to be left behind the temple.
Simply going to the Chen family may not be able to get through the [Welcoming the Holy Lord] step.
We must find a way to find the Holy Lord first.
Su Mo had many thoughts rolling through his mind.
The words in his mouth never stopped.
Facing the two eager candidate saints, he asked questions and learned a lot about things related to the Liu family and the festival, and learned many secrets that few people in the village knew.
After listening to the information for a long time, Su Mo seemed to remember something, and then asked:
"I heard that some strange things seemed to have happened in your Liu family, such as the maid who was killed resurrected, the cook cooking children in the back kitchen, etc. Is there such a thing?"
After Liu Hanyan and Liu Huayu hesitated for a while, they all nodded.
