Ren Qing noticed the strange changes in the disaster relief restricted area from a long distance, with all kinds of strange vegetation and huge herbs growing.
Song Zong Wu was standing on the outside, and Huang Ziwan stood beside him obediently.
Land should be the first to arrive.
After they met, they waited for a while outside Camelback Mountain.
Li Yaoyang and others arrived one after another, their expressions looking a little solemn.
Song Zongwu saw this and said, "I called you here because Water Hyacinth's temperament is too weird and he may be in danger if he is left alone."
Li Yaoyang nodded and added: "The location of the disaster relief zone involves mountainous areas. Water hyacinths are here for the first time, so just be careful."
Ren Qinggang wanted to ask, but Huang Ziwan explained softly: "I have seen the tricks of Water Hyacinth, and he is by no means a good person."
Song Zongwu waved his hand and said, "Let's check the situation first."
Everyone stepped into the disaster relief restricted area.
Unexpectedly, the originally desolate land became covered with blood-red weeds in just a few days, and a strong fishy odor could be smelled up close.
Ren Qing's feet stepped on the red grass, but it didn't feel like vegetation. Instead, it felt like moss, with a slight stickiness.
On the top of the hillside, there are twelve huge herb trees scattered all over the hilltop.
The herbs are more than ten meters high, and each one is slightly different. They are a bit different from the herbs seen in the Disaster Relief Restricted Medicine Garden.
Distorted human faces can be seen on the branches and leaves, and their mouths will continue to open and close, as if they are screaming in conscious terror.
It makes people feel fearful.
The closer Ren Qing got to the herbs, the more depressed he felt.
Except for Song Zongwu, who has the highest level of cultivation, everyone else is also feeling a little unwell. If ordinary government servants were allowed to come here, they would probably die suddenly before they even get close.
Quack, quack…
A crow with rotten feathers landed on a branch and neighed hoarsely.
Who would have thought that the nearby ecology would even give rise to alternative creatures, which shows how weird the restricted area is.
"What the hell?"
Huang Ziwan couldn't help but jumped to the treetop and caught the crow.
The crow struggled wildly and was thrown outside the disaster relief area.
Quack, quack…
Crow Pu flapped its wings, trying to get closer to the disaster relief zone, but within a few meters it turned into pus, causing the rotten smell to permeate the air.
Song Zongwu explained: "The influence of the restricted area is limited to the surrounding area, and the strange creatures cannot leave."
Ren Qing suddenly recalled the memory of entering the disaster relief restricted area.
He realized that there should have been more than twelve trees in the medicine garden at that time, but why the corresponding number had changed now.
Ren Qing hesitated on how to tell Song Zongwu, but heard the other party say: "Since there is no serious problem, let's withdraw."
Huang Ziwan smiled sarcastically and said, "You probably don't need me anymore. To be fair, if Water Hyacinth takes action, then..."
Song Zongwu didn't reply, but looked into the distance with obscure eyes.
Ren Qing instantly felt his skin burning slightly, the water vapor around him boiling, and the temperature rose a lot.
Seeing this, Xu Shilin took a deep breath of dry smoke and was about to react, but Song Zongwu quickly reached out to stop him.
"The water hyacinth is here."
It is definitely not easy to make Song Zong not be so afraid.
In just a few breaths, a large flaming cloud burst into flames in the southeastern sky.
An eccentric old man rode a donkey towards the disaster relief restricted area, humming an inexplicable song.
"Fellow Daoist Song, you are fine."
Taoist Water Hyacinth looks ordinary, even kind-hearted, but the gourd he carries on his back looks weird, and it turns out to be flesh-colored.
The surface of the gourd is covered with blood vessels, and they will beat once or twice from time to time.
"Captain Waterway, I'll leave this place to you."
Song Zongwu waved his hand and walked quickly outside the disaster relief restricted area.
Taoist Water Hyacinth squinted his eyes as he scanned the crowd, finally settling on Xu Shilin, his expression becoming intriguing.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Then he laughed and took action, and the top of the flesh-colored gourd split open like a stamen, turning into a huge, deformed and terrifying mouth.
Only then did Ren Qing notice that the gourd was growing together with its back, and it should be some kind of external organ.
A large amount of water vapor spewed out from the gourd, directly surrounding the entire area and pressing towards everyone like a wave.
Ren Qing glanced at Xu Shilin, who had an ugly expression. The latter's technique should be similar to that of Taoist Water Hyacinth, and it made the other person have some thoughts.
"You go first."
Song Zongwu said in a deep voice, and then his body instantly swelled to over three meters tall, with six eyes staring at the overwhelming water vapor.
"Left Eye 2, Hold on to Strength!!"
Zuo Zhong's eyes shone brightly, the muscles in his arms expanded to the extreme, and then he shot forward hard.
The water mist was split into two halves, and everyone took this opportunity to escape outside the disaster relief area.
Song Zongwu used his legs to leap forward and jumped directly to their side, staring at the disaster relief restricted area with a vigilant expression.
The fog rolled in, followed by heavy rain, making the temperature in the air even hotter, like hell on earth.
However, the twelve giant herbs were still standing among them, and no movement was seen.
The soil gradually became moist, and even bubbles appeared as if it were boiling.
About an hour later, more than ten miles near the disaster relief restricted area turned into a swamp, and there was no trace of those alienated animals.
The water hyacinth Taoist priest gradually restrained his magic, the water vapor returned to the gourd, and then looked at Song Zongwu with burning eyes.
"I'll go say hello to him."
Song Zongwu disappeared from the spot, and the two soon met each other. The so-called greeting was actually more of a test.
Li Yaoyang said to Huang Ziwan and Tutu: "I'll just come down and see you two. Complete your return to Sanxiang City as soon as possible."
Huang Ziwan hesitated to speak, but he still walked to the edge of the disaster relief area, and then his abdomen expanded into a balloon shape.
Venom spurted from his mouth and sizzled in the swamp.
Tu Tu swallowed the detoxification pill, then half of his body got into the ground, and began to stir up the swamp quilt within a hundred meters, and the toxins gradually blended in.
The fight between Song Zongwu and Wu lasted for a long time, and the fight shook the earth. In the end, Ren Qing didn't know who lost and who won.
It would take five days for the entire swamp to turn into poison. This was only possible with the cooperation of the land, otherwise even a month might not be enough.
Ren Qing watched the swamp turn purple-black.
They also threw in hundreds of beast corpses, making it impossible for even the Ghost Envoy to stay in the poisonous disaster relief restricted area for a long time.
After completing the blockade, everyone returned to the temporary camp.
Only then did they notice that dozens of prisoners were missing, and the government officials had uncontrollable fear on their faces.
Song Zong asked around gloomily without expression, and found that it was indeed Water Hyacinth.
However, since Water Hyacinth did not attack the Yamen servant, it means that Song Zongwu still had the upper hand in the battle and even defeated the opponent.
The disaster relief restricted area has come to an end, and the government officials uneasily packed up their belongings and prepared to leave.
Ren Qing can't wait to return to Sanxiang City to accumulate longevity. He always feels that in the sub-dimensional world, if he doesn't reach the ghost realm, his survival depends on luck.
