I became a master of alchemy by picking up trash

"It's not easy for you to actually get Hui Xiazi's token! Which family are you descended from, Chu, Jiang, Chen, or Lin?"

Although this girl is plainly dressed, she has a good temperament and can make the eccentric Chu Hui take out his personal token to ask him for help. Could it be that she is a descendant of the Chu family?
Li Xing shook his head: "No, I am from the Li family."

"Li family?" The one-armed man frowned. He had never heard of a family named Li before entering the tower. Could it be that it is a new family that has risen in recent years?
"Who is the head of your family? What does he do for a living?"

Li Xing put away the token, pointed at the tip of his nose and said:

"If nothing else, I am the head of the Li family. I am still in the stage of accumulating wealth. I do whatever I want to make money, but for now, it seems that selling medicine is my main business. No other members of the Li family have appeared yet. I will wait for future generations. Once Ding is prosperous, consider developing in other directions. I believe that in the near future, the Li family will definitely become a richer family than the Chu family."

The one-armed man was stunned for a moment, then laughed wildly, and the laughter echoed in the quiet library.Fortunately, there was a formation blocking it, otherwise, all the people reading in the library would have been alarmed.

The one-armed man didn't stop laughing until tears came from the corners of his eyes.

"Interesting, interesting! You are a young girl, and you have a strong tone, but you actually want to compare yourself to the Chu family? But I like it! Just for your ambition, you don't have to use Hui Xiazi's favor, I will also help you!"

The one-armed man tossed the scroll casually and sat up from the stack of books, with his two long legs hanging outside the bookshelf, facing Li Xing.

"Tell me, what do you want?"

"Senior has read a lot of books in the library. I wonder if you have seen a three-eyed monster insect in any book. It looks like a cicada, flies very fast, and can become invisible?"

"This..." the one-armed man frowned and muttered something while thinking: "A strange bug with three eyes? I seem to have seen it somewhere... Where is it... Let me think about it... I have——!"

The one-armed man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he jumped under the bookshelf. An aircraft appeared at his feet in time, like a somersault cloud, carrying the one-armed man through the formation and flying in the huge library.

Li Xing followed closely behind him, his heart beating like a drum with excitement, it looked like something was going to happen!
After flying for a quarter of an hour, the one-armed man's aircraft hovered under the "Strange Novels" category. He rummaged through the bookshelf and finally pulled out a thread-bound book and threw it into Li Xing's arms.

"Now, in the entire library, only Song Ling Sanren's novel mentions what you are looking for, called a three-eyed insect. It is on page 30, page [-], read it yourself."

Li Xing quickly opened the book, found the story, and read it carefully.After reading it, Li Xing looked solemn.

The story roughly goes like this: Zhang and Li, two young woodcutters, are good friends and neighbors. They go up the mountain to cut firewood together every day, one going to the south of the mountain and the other to the north.After cutting the firewood, the two met under a big pine tree halfway up the mountain and went home together.

One day, Zhang Qiaofu just walked to Nanshan when he suddenly felt unwell, dizzy, his limbs were weak, and he couldn't stand. Naturally, he couldn't chop firewood, so he went down the mountain early.

When they reached the big pine tree where they had agreed to wait, Zhang Qiaofu felt a cramp in his abdomen, so he found a place with thick weeds and squatted down for convenience.

At this moment, Zhang Woodcutter noticed that Li Woodman was coming. He didn't seem to have chopped any firewood, and he didn't even know where he had thrown the basket on his back.

The strange thing is that Li Woodman's movements were very stiff, like a child who had just learned to walk. He stumbled and fell several times before he managed to reach the foot of the big pine tree.

Zhang Qiaofu felt that Li Qiaofu was acting suspiciously, so he continued to squat in the grass to see what he was going to do.This sight frightened Zhang Woodcutter out of his soul.I saw Li Woodman's head split in the middle like a pine nut, and a strange insect with three eyes on its head crawled out.After the insect ate away Li Woodman's brain, his body became looming and finally disappeared completely.

Zhang Woodcutter was so frightened that he witnessed the strange thing that he ran down the mountain and told the villagers about it.When the villagers arrived under the big pine tree with weapons, Li Woodman's body had been chewed to pieces by the star beast, and his head was dragged to no where.

Without evidence, no one believed Zhang Qiaofu's words.

It happened that Songling San people went back to their hometown to worship their ancestors and stayed in this village.He felt that Zhang Woodcutter was not lying, so he treated the story as an anecdote and recorded it in detail in his fantasy novel.

Because the stories written by Songling Sans are all stories about ghosts and ghosts without any factual basis, this folk anecdote specially noted by the author was regarded as a fictional story, and no one believed it for thousands of years.

If Li Xing had not seen the three-eyed cicada with her own eyes, she would have thought that this was a ghost story similar to "Painted Skin", but if you think about it carefully, you will find that the authenticity of this story is frightening.

Based on Jiang Junnan's experience, Li Xing has now been able to analyze several of the three-eyed cicada's habits - it parasitizes the human body, feeds on human tissue, and can control human behavior.

The most important thing is that the three-eyed cicada is definitely not a race that wakes up suddenly after dormancy. They have existed in the world at least since the Xianli era when Songling Sanren lived.

It is unusual in itself that a species that has existed for thousands of years and is inherently cruel and evil has never been officially documented or attracted any attention.

Or, the number of three-eyed cicadas is extremely rare, and the number of humans parasitized and eaten by them is also small, so they cannot attract the attention of the authorities at all.

Or - the three-eyed cicadas are artificially raised, and someone provides them with everything they need. A few of them occasionally run out and cause trouble, but they can't make any waves!
An organization capable of raising such bugs must be powerful, and the Zhu Xian Sect is a serious suspect.

Is the Zhuxian Sect buying and selling slaves in large quantities to store food for the three-eyed cicada?

They used the name of holy elixir to deceive believers and openly find hosts for the three-eyed cicada.If she hadn't killed one accidentally, no one in the entire federation would have known about the existence of such strange insects.

After figuring out the key, Li Xing's face suddenly became ugly.

How many three-eyed cicadas does the Zhuxian Sect have?What is their purpose in cultivating the three-eyed cicada?Is it just to turn the believers into disposable berserkers and charge into battle for them?
If that's all, that's okay, but I'm afraid they have a bigger conspiracy.

In addition, the aura of the transparent monster is a hundred times stronger than the three-eyed cicada. It is probably the insect king. Why did it attack Chu Yunyi?
The word "parasitism" suddenly appeared in Li Xing's mind, sending shivers down her spine.

If the three-eyed monster cicada, as a minion, can control Jiang Junnan's body to fight with her, then as the insect king, will he take over the host's body [-]% and perform so perfectly that no one can notice it?The answer is yes.

If the transparent monster is to successfully parasitize, using Chu Yunyi's identity and ability, it can completely subvert the entire Qianyuan Continent and harvest millions of lives with the backhand of its palm.

Li Xing has no intention of interfering with the fate of others, but she is an egoist. She will never allow things that threaten her own safety and interests to exist.

Before finding a way to return home, the fate of Qianyuan Continent was closely related to her future. Even for herself, she would never allow a transparent monster to occupy Chu Yunyi's body and harm the world.
