Chapter 45 Chapter 45 Shennong Land Stone

As soon as Ghost Wu finished speaking, not only Wu Qi, but even Mo Yi who was beside him was startled, and he couldn't believe it.She wondered: "That's a spirit monkey domesticated by immortals to protect the secrets of the ancestor gods. How could it be human!" Wu Qi didn't quite believe it. In terms of behavior, there is no way to see that it is what humans can achieve. Just looking at that terrifying face can make people have nightmares for several days in a row. If that thing can be called a human being, then Zhu Bajie can be counted Beautiful boy. Ghost Wu obviously realized that they wouldn't believe it, and continued to say to Wu Qi: "Those people lost their appearance, consciousness and all human abilities, and finally became other people's gatekeepers, remember when we were at Zhou's house? You saw me alone in the room, but I cast two shadows!"

Wu Qi was horrified, and looked at Ghost Wu in disbelief. The scenes flashed through his mind, and he quickly realized something.Ghost Wu nodded and said: "One day ten years ago, I had some problems with my body. Suddenly, my whole body swelled up, as if thousands of ants and insects were gnawing on my body, and then my whole body began to crack and peel off. After the peeling, I I found that my skin color has changed, and it has become the scarlet red it is now!" Ghost Wu's body trembled slightly, and his voice trembled a little. Wu Qi only discovered today that Ghost Wu is not fearless. There are still things that scare him in this world. It is not difficult to imagine that what Ghost Wu endures is ordinary people. unbearable pain.

"Later, when the summer comes every year, there will be peeling. The time you saw is already the tenth time. Master can't do anything about my strange disease. He can only use scorpions, spiders, gecko (gecko) ) and wait for the poison to be suppressed." Ghost Wu regained his composure, paused for a moment and then said calmly: "The monkey you mentioned is what I will look like in the end!" "What?" Wu Qi asked urgently: "You mean that monkey really changed from a human? And you will eventually become like that?" Ghost Wu replied: "It's not just me, everyone who took that kind of elixir will know it. I have been following Master these years and have been investigating this matter from beginning to end. We saw with our own eyes those people's skin peeling off layer by layer, their faces deformed until it lost its human appearance, and in excruciating pain turned into that skinless monster!"

Wu Qi and Moy could hear sweat on their foreheads. It is not difficult to imagine a well-behaved person becoming a monster without thinking and at the mercy of others. The panic and helplessness in their hearts, and at the same time they felt extreme panic. After being forced to take those pills, could it be possible that he ended up in the same way? Moy realized this and almost fainted immediately. A beautiful girl suffered such a horrible accident. She waited for her face to be ruined in extreme worry. This feeling was worse than death. She said nervously: "This is Really? Godfather would treat us like this?"

Ghost Wu explained that the original intention of Chang Tianjing to develop this secret recipe was to induce hallucinations so as to facilitate the control of people, but he accidentally discovered that this secret recipe has a more powerful special function, so he became addicted to it and kept trying it. Improvement, and finally refined into this kind of pill.These things make the army under the command of Chang Tianjing have extremely strong combat effectiveness, and they can fight tirelessly and frantically. They have no soul, and they show the bloodthirsty nature of wild beasts on the battlefield.

Wu Qi naturally believed Ghost Wu's words, because according to his understanding, in the ancient and modern Chinese and foreign powerful empires, there will always be a kind of people with extremely terrifying fighting power. They have no soul, and killing is their only pleasure. The walking dead, this is the real walking dead!Wu Qi finally understood how Chang Tianjing's illustrious military exploits were achieved. Reminiscent of Ghost Wu's bloodlust, Wu Qi couldn't help sweating again, and tentatively asked: "What is the cycle of this change? That is, after taking this pill, how long will it take to change?" Become that kind of strange monkey!" Wu Qi asked extremely cautiously, he carefully waited for Ghost Wu's answer, as if that was the deadline given to him by the god of death.

Ghost Wu said sadly: "I don't know the time limit. I was already dead when the people here wanted to execute me ten years ago. The time now is meaningless to me." He suddenly changed his tone , and then said: "I have to shed a layer of skin every year for ten years. Although the process is very painful, apart from the redness of the body as before, there is no abnormal change in appearance. I still look like a human!" Wu Qi was slightly relieved when he heard it, and he thought that it was a good thing that this strange disease didn't show up until many years later, and it was enough time to seek medical treatment for so many years.Relying on Wu Qi's self-confidence at this time, he believes that in this world, one thing is one thing, and a thoughtful person like Chang Hongjing will definitely leave room for doing things. Now that this pill has been developed, there must be a corresponding secret recipe for rescue .

Wu Qi told the two of them all this, Moy nodded in confusion, and his attention returned to the bronze man, while Ghost Wu said: "If this is the case, what we are looking for should be here." Said After that, he raised the torch and probed deeper into the cave. It didn't take long to reach the end of the passage. As expected, the entrance of this cave was trumpet-shaped, and now it has reached the end position. The original open cave was replaced by a long and narrow corridor-like passage. The narrow road is about three feet wide, but because of the sharp edges and corners, it can barely accommodate two people walking side by side. The narrow road is full of climbing vines, and the road is rugged and has a huge drop. It is very strenuous to move forward. At the very front, he slashed and slashed while walking, only to clear a barely smooth passage.The aisle was not too long, and it took more than ten minutes for several people to walk through it. After passing through the aisle, the surrounding area suddenly became a little brighter, the air became much fresher, and the surrounding space returned to its previous spaciousness. When they looked up, they couldn't help being surprised again when they found that the bright light was actually the moonlight pouring down from the top.

The place they arrived at through the narrow road was actually connected to the outside world, and it was no longer a closed cave. Several people could even feel the night wind blowing on their faces.Looking up, there is a narrow night sky, and they are at the lowest end of the abyss. "Hey, what are these things?" Wu Qi looked around with a torch, and suddenly found many tall strange shadows standing all around. When he took a closer look, he found that these so-called strange shadows were actually tall trees. Several people were a little surprised that there were still trees here, obviously underestimating the ability of plants to adapt to the environment.When they took a closer look, it turned out that there were not a few trees, and they almost filled the narrow abyss. Walking under it was no different from walking in a jungle.

"All trees are the same, there are no other tree species except pagoda tree!" Wu Qi quickly discovered that this was special, and a strange premonition came to his mind. Wu Qi is now particularly sensitive to pagoda tree. Seeing so much at the bottom of such an abyss, Zizi had to have an idea.Those locust trees are growing tenaciously on the rocks and cliffs, with luxuriant branches and leaves. The faint smell of resin is mixed with the aroma of locust flowers, like ghosts and ghosts. Along with the pagoda trees, there are several dark and thick figures, they are arranged tall, like five huge statues, or like the hands of a giant with five fingers spread out, those pagoda trees grow on his body in the palm of your hand.

When I got closer, I found that those so-called five fingers were five towering black stones. They stood alone against the mountain wall. Like those locust trees, their existence here is a bit unreasonable. I don’t know how these huge stones Forming. The surface of the boulder is mostly uneven and covered with many small holes like a honeycomb. The inner diameter of the small holes is only as thin as a pinhole, while the outward side is as smooth as a mirror surface, faintly reflecting the moonlight, reflecting a few Blurred figure.When you touch it with your hand, the mirror surface is as cold as ice, which makes you shiver uncontrollably. The bottom of the abyss was cut into a roughly pentagonal area, and the five huge stones were located at the five corners, arranged very neatly.Wu Qi quickly understood that these were not accidental, but intentional. The five huge stones were arranged in a five-element array, divided into gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. "These are ground stones!" Ghost Wu said with certainty: "This should be the Shennong ground stones that Chang Tianjing mentioned. He accidentally found these things in the deep mountains when he was traveling around. It turned out that he transported these things and hid them here!" "Oh?" Wu Qi heard this, and hurriedly looked at the smooth surface of the boulder.These boulders have uneven edges and corners, only the outward side is extremely smooth. According to legend, these are caused by the aftermath of Pangu's giant ax that created the world.But it is obvious that these smooth surfaces are just for engraving words for recording, but the strange thing is that these mirror-like surfaces are smooth, without any convex and concave places, and there are no engraved characters. Moy watched from the side, rolled his eyes and said: "I heard from the patriarch that the ancient earth stone has spirituality, and human blood is needed to manifest it!" After hearing this, Ghost Wu stretched out his left index finger without hesitation, cut it with a dagger, squeezed out blood and dripped directly on the mirror surface of the boulder.Sure enough, where the blood passed, a white mist rose up, and then a few red characters appeared faintly.The characters were blurry, and before Wu Qi could see them clearly, they would soon disappear with the flow of blood. These are life-saving gadgets, none of them dared to be negligent, they all cut their fingers with daggers, dripped them on the mirror surfaces of several boulders and wiped them away.After the blood was evenly spread, the mirror surfaces of those boulders turned into warning red lights, faintly glowing red, and each and every strange character appeared clearly at the moment, as if they were beating under the red light.Several people were dumbfounded when they saw it. These characters were extremely remote and not normal characters at all. Wu Qi only glanced at them, and almost none of the characters could be recognized.He slapped his head, perhaps he should have thought that the chapters on the ancient god stone would not be as easy to identify as ordinary written records, this is the origin of some so-called heavenly books.And until now, I can only find a way to record these words, and then find a way to decipher them slowly when I go back. "It doesn't seem right!" Moy wiped away his blood on a boulder mirror, suddenly frowned and shook his head, then looked up at Wu Qi and Ghost Wu in confusion and said, "Why did such a thing happen, don't you... ...?" "Since it's an ancient earth stone, it's not surprising that the things on it can't be recognized. At least now we know how to unlock the characters on it!" Seeing Moy's surprise and disappointment, Wu Qi comforted him. . Moy shook his head and replied, "It's not this one. What I'm curious about is why my blood didn't respond when it dripped on it, and it doesn't have to be yours to show the words?"
