Hong Yanzi noticed Lin Xixue's gaze staring at his arm, and lifted up his sleeves to show off proudly.
"I have served Tianzun as a master for decades, and I have transformed into this step by step; you don't have to envy me as a master. If you serve sincerely, you will have a chance sooner or later."
His words were meant to be encouraging, but after hearing this, Lin Xixue felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
Does it turn out that just visiting the Tianzun statue will turn you into such a monster?
From then on, Hong Yanzi took him to worship every day. If he couldn't escape in time, even if he didn't die, he would turn into this kind of monster sooner or later.
Lin Xixue felt like crying when she thought about how her body was covered with eyeballs.
Why do so many strange things happen just by worshiping a stone statue?
What is going on in this world?
She felt helpless and exhausted. If possible, she wished she could lie down on the ground and sleep deeply.
But she still wants to live.
cheer up! I have to continue acting with this old madman!
She restrained her negative emotions and said in panic: "My disciple's blessings are shallow and I don't dare to ask for such an opportunity."
Hong Yanzi narrowed his eyes, laughed a few times without comment, turned around and left.
She didn't know if it was because she felt something was wrong with everything she looked at when she was nervous, but Lin Xixue always felt that this smile seemed to mean something.
But it's useless to think about it. The situation is too passive now, so I can only adapt to changes.
She stood up, not caring to dust off her legs, and quickly chased after him holding the night pearl.
There was no daylight inside the cave, and Lin Xixue didn't know how long she had walked. She just felt that the distance she walked this time was obviously much farther than the first time.
As she walked, she sensed her surroundings and drew a three-dimensional map of the cave in her mind.
In fact, although her original spatial imagination and memory were not bad, it was absolutely impossible for her to remember such a complex three-dimensional map.
But after absorbing the moonflower dew rewarded by the golden finger, she was surprised to find that even a three-dimensional map with such complexity was not difficult to memorize.
However, the complexity of the cave's terrain was far beyond her imagination. Just talking about the area she sensed and included in her memory, there were more than ten forked roads crisscrossing it.
The entire cave is like a huge termite nest spreading unbridled in the underground space, with no boundaries.
The more Lin Xixue felt, the more desperate she became.
She must find a way to escape before her body changes.
She must race against time.
But with her current foot strength, even if Hong Yanzi allows her to explore the cave freely, she doesn't know how long it will take to find out the entire cave.
A thought suddenly came to her mind - was it possible to kill Hong Yanzi directly?
As soon as the idea came up, she was shocked.
Less than half a day after traveling through time, she had already had the idea of killing someone twice in a row.
Are you a modern person who has received good moral education and legal education?
Why do I keep having these horrible thoughts?
However, Na Luo Si bullied men and women in the cave and committed all kinds of evil, so he obviously deserved to die. This Hong Yanzi was able to turn stone into gold with his evil magic. Killing him would be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.
After a little mental struggle, she successfully convinced herself.
However, she didn't notice the grayish light gradually gathering between her eyebrows, which was so light that it was almost transparent.
As for how to kill Hong Yanzi, she had no idea for a while.
She still knew too little about Hong Yanzi, and she didn't know what spells he knew and what his weaknesses were.
After walking like this for who knows how long, Hong Yanzi finally stopped.
Lin Xixue sensed it for a moment and found that there was a huge pool in front of her.
But there was a foul smell coming from the pool, and she frowned imperceptibly.
Hong Yanzi took back the bell, took out a slender bamboo whistle, and blew out some strange and unpleasant tones.
Luo Si's body suddenly fell to the ground and began to convulse violently, with the joints of his hands and feet twisted to incredible angles.
A yellow and black insect with dozens of long legs crawled out of Luo Si's mouth, and then jumped into the sewage pool as fast as lightning.
If Lin Xixue hadn't continued to use her "spiritual consciousness" to sense her surroundings, she wouldn't even be able to see the afterimage left behind by the insect.
Has this insect always been lurking in Luo Si's body?
When did Luo Si become parasitized?
Were the eggs laid in the food? Or was he already parasitized during the coma when he was kidnapped to this cave?
Could there be such bugs in my body?
Why did Hong Yanzi send this insect into the human body? What is the use of this insect?
All kinds of questions flooded into her mind in an instant, and she even felt her back starting to itch.
It was as if a real insect was tapping his back with its tentacles.
She bit the bullet and used her "spiritual sense" to search her back.
Fortunately, there is nothing...
She finally breathed a sigh of relief. At that moment she almost couldn't help but cry.
She is really afraid of bugs, especially bugs with many legs.
This has nothing to do with courage, it is purely based on biological instinct.
But before the cold sweat on her forehead dried, Hong Yanzi swung the whisk and raised a strong wind, blowing Luo Si's body into the foul-smelling pool.
"Crack... crack..."
Countless yellow and black bugs jumped out of the water and crazily gnawed at the flesh and blood on Luo Si's body.
In just a few breaths, Luo Si was left with only a white skeleton.
Then there was a fine "crack" sound, and within a moment, even the bones turned into nothing.
Lin Xixue's scalp was numb as she watched, and she didn't dare to take a breath.
Hong Yanzi took out a glass bottle, pointed it as a sword, and pointed it at the largest and most energetic insect on the water. He raised his arm and pointed it at the glass bottle, and the insect was collected into the bottle.
The bugs twisted in the bottle and hit the inner wall wildly.
Hong Yanzi turned around and handed the slender bamboo whistle to Lin Xixue together with the bottle containing the insects.
"This Corpse Puppet Insect is my second gift to you from my master."
"Now that you have learned how to fly into the sky and escape from the earth, you can go back to the cave where you were before and find any slave to plant corpse worms."
"As the name suggests, this insect uses corpses as its puppets. It is your slave when it is alive, and it is your puppet when it is dead."
Lin Xixue took the glass bottle with some trembling.
Although she was separated by a glass bottle, she really didn't want to come into contact with such a scary multi-legged insect.
"My dear disciple, why are you shaking?"
Lin Xixue's heart tightened and she quickly thought about how to deal with it, but Hong Yanzi couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha, it's just that I'm old and confused. I forgot that you are a girl after all. I think my youngest daughter was also very afraid of these things when she was still alive."
He took out a piece of black cloth, wrapped it around the bottle, and said, "Just turn off the heat!"
Lin Xixue was confused. What was Hong Yanzi talking about?
But no matter what, after wrapping it invisible with black cloth, the psychological pressure is finally not that great.
She took the bottle and locked it firmly with her "spiritual consciousness", fearing that the bug would escape, and then bowed and saluted.
"Thank you Master for the treasure."
"It doesn't matter, I'm going to go out and discuss the truth with a group of Taoist friends. You can just find a suitable person to plant the zombie worm."
"yes."
"Do you remember the way?"
"Disciple...only remembers part of it."
Lin Xixue deliberately pretended to be stupid. Of course she remembered everything, but it would be great if she could take the opportunity to deceive the cave map.
"Yes, the situation inside the cave is complicated. It's really unrealistic to remember everything after just one visit."
Hong Yanzi shook the sleeves of his Taoist robe, and a stone rose into the air and flew forward at a slow and steady speed.
"Go, this stone will guide you."
"yes."
Lin Xixue was a little disappointed, thinking that she would give herself a map.
"My good disciple, I am going to become my master."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Yanzi turned into a blue shadow and flew away through the sky.
Lin Xixue was the only one left beside the foul-smelling pool.
The radiance of the night pearl flickered, and the cave was eerily quiet. Only the water droplets dripped into the pool...
