The change in Liu Chao's expression was not noticed by Song Ruyuan and others.
In other words, even if they noticed it, they wouldn't care too much.
After all, he was just a passing fourth-level casual cultivator. Who would have thought that he would know those secrets.
But Su Mo already knew from the previous listening session that this man had visited a certain ruins before.
Judging from his expression, it seems that the bone worms have a lot to do with the ruins.
Immediately, Su Mo asked Liu Chao directly:
"You should know the origin of these bone worms, right?"
Hearing this, Song Ruyuan, Yu Hongfei and others all looked at him with surprise on their faces.
They just said that this bone worm has been extinct for a long time.
As a result, in a blink of an eye, someone nearby knew the origin of these bone worms.
Is it possible that this high-level doll has something to do with him?
At the thought of this, the eyes of Song Ruyuan and others became dangerous.
Sensing the strange atmosphere at the scene, Liu Chao couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling slightly.
Seeing the puppet being suppressed, he was already planning to leave.
Unexpectedly, the expression on his face revealed the truth.
Even the Civil Security Bureau mistakenly thought that he was with the puppets.
Liu Chao quickly gathered his thoughts, moved his hands, and explained hurriedly:
"I've never heard of bone worms. I just came here to see what was going on with the doll. I didn't have any other ideas."
Su Mo listened, but crossed his arms and said with a smile:
"There is a strange object in the Civil Security Bureau that can detect lies. Are you sure you want to go there to experiment?"
The expression on Song Ruyuan's face immediately became more dangerous.
Yu Hongfei and Wei Cang even moved to both sides, vaguely surrounding Liu Chao.
Seeing this scene, Liu Chao felt extremely stressed.
Damn, he is just a level 4 casual cultivator, but now there are two level 5 and one level 6 coming to surround him.
There was even a strong man standing opposite who couldn't see clearly.
How could he deserve such treatment?
Sensing the rising auras on everyone's bodies, Liu Chao knew that if he didn't do something today, it would be difficult to pass this test.
Dang even straightened his face and said:
"Don't get me wrong. I really have nothing to do with this doll, but I have heard of the bone worms used to refine the doll."
"Then you might as well come and listen."
Song Ruyuan's tone was very calm.
Liu Chao's mouth twitched slightly and then said:
“I once read an ancient book and learned a lot about bone worms.
This thing is shaped like a mosquito, extremely tiny, and was originally used to deal with monks.
Through special cultivation techniques, the bone worms are encouraged to enter other people's bodies and grow parasitically in their flesh and blood.
During the entire growth process, it can shield the host's perception to a certain extent, making it impossible for the host to detect it.
Until it finally matures, it can control the host and turn it into a flesh and blood puppet.
And even if someone finds it in the middle, it is as hard to get rid of as a tarsal maggot.
Unless all the eggs hidden in the body are eradicated, they will grow back soon. "
"It is precisely because of its concealment and harmfulness that it caused widespread catastrophes in a certain era in ancient times.
Later, the five sect alliances developed targeted detection and killing methods, which for a time made the boneworm almost extinct.
It wasn't until many years passed that latecomers accidentally discovered that they could be refined with bone worms and utensils, making the utensils spiritual.
But the environment at that time was no longer suitable for the growth of bone worms, and the original magic formula was banned and lost. Even though they worked hard to cultivate it, the bone worms gradually disappeared and became history. "
After listening to Liu Chao's story, Song Ruyuan couldn't help but have a strange look on his face.
Wei Cang on the side suddenly laughed and said:
"Even our bureau has not received many classics and materials related to bone worms. Seeing how well you know about bone worms, I am really more and more suspicious that you are related to these dolls. Otherwise, how can you explain that you just pulled one in? Can passers-by know such secret information?"
Yu Hongfei on the other side also nodded and said:
"There is no such coincidence in this world."
After hearing the two men's assertions, Liu Chao suddenly became anxious.
It's such a coincidence that the rider is riding a horse. What can I do?
Without waiting for him to argue, Su Mo said with a smile:
"You must have something to say just now, right?"
Liu Chao's expression was slightly startled.
Su Mo continued:
"Since the bone worms have been extinct for a long time, it is impossible for the things on this doll to appear out of thin air. Can you tell me where these bone worms come from?"
Song Ruyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
Everyone's eyes were all fixed on Liu Chao.
The invisible pressure only made his whole body freeze.
Liu Chao was silent for a moment.
Then he looked at Song Ruyuan and asked:
"I do know the whereabouts of the Boneworm, but what's the point of telling you?"
As a suspect related to the manufacture of dolls, why the hell do you still want benefits?
Wei Cang sneered and prepared to threaten.
However, Song Ruyuan said directly:
"As long as the information you give is accurate, any transaction or anything is easy to negotiate."
Liu Chao clenched his fists and said in a deep voice:
"I want two Dragon Essence Pills, three mid-level magic weapons, and ten spirit stones!"
While speaking, he stared at Song Ruyuan without blinking, his expression very nervous, but extremely determined.
Obviously, if the other party does not intend to agree, he is likely to hold on to the information.
Song Ruyuan hesitated a little.
Intermediate magic weapons and spiritual stones are okay, but Long Yuan Dan is probably only available in the provincial government.
Before he could discuss it further, Su Mo on the side responded:
"I can agree to your terms."
Everyone couldn't help but look at him.
Liu Chao was also very surprised.
But he did not relax his vigilance because of this, but said directly:
"Give me the stuff first, and I'll tell you later!"
Wei Cang suddenly became angry, pointed at him and said:
"Don't be too pushy!"
Liu Chao smiled instead, spread his hands and said:
"I'm here, and my level is only level 4. What do you have to be afraid of?
Could it be that the Civil Security Bureau, which has a good reputation outside, is actually a rogue organization that likes to cheat on transactions? "
Hearing what he said, Wei Cang became even more angry.
But Su Mo smiled and said:
"It's up to you."
As he spoke, he threw out three mid-level magic weapons and ten spiritual stones.
After receiving the magic weapon, one could tell at a glance that the magic weapon was old-fashioned and old, and of poor quality.
But Liu Chao was not too picky and still regarded it as a treasure and carefully put it away.
Immediately, he asked in a deep voice:
"Where's Long Yuan Dan? I won't trade without Long Yuan Dan!"
Su Mo smiled and said:
"Long Yuan Dan is nothing more than used to remove cold toxins. Although I don't have Long Yuan Dan, I am quite confident in detoxifying it."
Seemingly looking at Liu Chao in disbelief, Song Ruyuan said in a deep voice:
"The person next to me is an alchemy master who can refine third-grade elixirs. You don't have to doubt his strength.
And if the toxin is too complex to be solved, I can also promise you to prepare Long Yuan Dan from the provincial government. "
Liu Chao smiled stiffly and said:
"I think Director Song won't lie to me, so I'll tell you the location."
"Don't think that I just opened my mouth to the lion. Compared with the benefits you are about to get, what I just asked for is just a small thing.
If I hadn't been accidentally involved in this accident today, and if my younger brother and sister really needed detoxification, I wouldn't have said it, because that place was a ruined cave that had just been revealed! "
"What did you say? Ruins Cave?!"
Wei Cang was suddenly shocked.
Even Yu Hongfei and Song Ruyuan have become more serious about it.
Among everyone, Su Mo was probably the only one whose expression remained calm.
"Yes, it's the ruins cave. The bone worm I learned about is in that cave.
To be precise, those bone worms were preserved using special crystal foil.
This is why boneworms are still used today.
In terms of quantity, there are at least fifty sealed bone worms.
In addition to the bone worms, there are many other treasures in that cave.
I saw Long Yuan Dan just outside, so you don't need to worry about not getting this thing.
But I want to remind you that it is very dangerous there.
Not only are there various special restrictions and traps, but the cave must have collapsed when it was born.
And I vaguely sensed an extremely dangerous aura from it. "
Liu Chao paused and looked at Song Ruyuan:
"To be honest, I feel that aura is more dangerous than yours."
Song Ruyuan was slightly startled.
The expressions of Wei Cang and Yu Hongfei became solemn.
It's not like they have never entered dangerous secret realms.
Just like the heaven and earth formation on Longshan Mountain before, the tribulation demon hidden inside was difficult for them to deal with. Even Director Song was afraid that he would not be able to deal with it in the past.
For a moment, everyone couldn't help but look at Su Mo.
Su Mo said calmly:
"I'll go there this time."
After hearing this, everyone including Song Ruyuan felt emboldened.
Liu Chao no longer hesitated and said in a deep voice:
"Then please come with me."
A group of people quickly followed.
at the same time.
Somewhere in the wilderness.
Three young and beautiful figures were walking through the forest at high speed, with extremely strong skills.
A monkey was about to climb up a tree when suddenly someone touched his forehead and he fell to the ground.
Seeing the confused monkey behind him, Han Yingzhen's helpless voice immediately came:
"Mingyan, you said you were running well, why did you tickle someone else's monkey?"
"Hahaha, don't you think it's funny when it falls?"
Jiang Mingyan didn't take it seriously, her expression was full of teasing.
Xu Anqi, who was following on the other side, said quietly:
“I heard these monkeys in the wild are full of parasites.
Don't touch a bug. "
Jiang Mingyan's smile froze slightly as she listened.
She glanced at her right hand reflexively.
It was still white and soft, with no trace of insects.
Now he threatened with all his teeth and claws:
"If I really catch a bug, I will definitely stuff it inside your clothes!"
"Then you have to catch up with me."
Xu Anqi chuckled and speeded up suddenly.
"Heh, you said you were fat and you were breathless. Do you think you are the only one who has reached level 3?"
As she spoke, Jiang Mingyan's pace suddenly quickened, and her figure was like lightning, chasing after Xu Anqi.
When Han Yingzhen saw this scene, he quickly rushed forward and stopped him helplessly:
"Don't run around, you have to rely on concentric insects to guide you."
Xu Anqi and Jiang Mingyan were stopped by Han Yingzhen.
Xu Anqi looked at Han Yingzhen and said with emotion:
"As expected of Level 4, they defeated us so easily, but the gap between the great realms is even more exaggerated than imagined."
"What can you do if someone is so talented?"
Jiang Mingyan said sourly:
"The two of us are still at Level 3 and dependent on each other."
Han Yingzhen said speechlessly:
"My breakthrough this time was mostly due to the power of elixirs. I will wait until you reach the peak of Level 3. Then you can easily reach Level 4 by taking the elixirs."
"Oh, everyone is joking, you are the only one who takes it seriously."
Jiang Mingyan said calmly:
"Anyway, the spiritual tide is coming soon. An Qi and I will definitely be able to successfully enter the fourth level. You must not be kicked out by us then."
Han Yingzhen smiled slightly and said:
"Then you have to work hard, I won't always stop there and wait for you."
At this time, Xu Anqi on the side suddenly said:
"I don't know what level Brother Su has reached in his cultivation now."
Hearing this, the atmosphere on the court suddenly became silent.
Since the last time they parted ways in the secret realm, they had rarely contacted Su Mo.
On the one hand, they must also work hard to practice and explore the secret realm.
On the other hand, I don't want to disturb others.
You can't bother others with trivial matters.
Their pride and self-esteem do not allow them to do so.
But now they have all made great progress.
After many experiences, he is now considered a qualified practitioner.
Maybe you can take this opportunity to tell them the good news?
"Let's not talk about other things for now. Maybe we can invite Brother Su to this expedition."
Han Yingzhen looked at a green beetle that was flapping its wings in his hand and said in a deep voice:
“The first few times we explored low-level foreign lands, and we teamed up with other people, we encountered almost no danger.
But this time it is different. According to the jade slip we found, this concentric worm should be able to lead to a cave.
According to the records on the jade slips, that place is by no means a territory that low-level practitioners can easily set foot in.
Maybe this time we can go in and have a look with Brother Su. "
"No matter what, let's make sure first."
Jiang Mingyan glanced at the concentric insect and said with some meaning:
"First of all, we have to make sure that the cave still exists. Otherwise, if it has been destroyed long ago, inviting that person over is just a joke."
"That makes sense, let's go first."
Once the decision was made, the three women no longer hesitated and continued to follow the concentric insects towards the increasingly remote wilderness.
at the same time.
On a river embankment not far from here.
Three figures were fleeing forward at great speed.
Behind them were a group of weird dolls wearing simple clothes.
"Horse, where did these ghosts come from?!"
Xu Sixue shouted angrily.
Zhou Jiantai, whose face turned pale next to him, said in a deep voice:
"No matter what, let's find a way to get rid of them first. We can't deal with so many dolls that are comparable to level 5."
Lu Zongping said in a quick voice:
"I will try to use a talisman later to expand the field to temporarily trap them. We can use this time to gather our strength and throw them away in one go!"
Xu Sixue and Zhou Jiantai listened and immediately nodded in agreement.
All three of them swallowed the elixir to prepare for the upcoming outbreak.
Lu Zongping looked at the ruins of several deserted houses not far away and shouted:
"It's now!"
As he spoke, he suddenly activated a jade talisman, turning it into a huge hemispherical light shield, covering all the puppets behind him.
At the same time, they all increased their speed and rushed towards the ruins ahead.
But in the next second, they all disappeared into the ruins.
It's like it never happened.
