Chapter 19

The silk threads were wetted by water and rolled together like a collapsed nest, and the eggs inside expanded one after another.

With the edict in hand, Song Yu used Hua Gu without any scruples.

The flesh worms inside Liao Hui's body also gnawed out and escaped without a trace.

The bones were depleted of food, so they hid on Song Yu's body again along the water lines. It was much smaller than when it was in Meishan Village.

The three bald men were not devoured by the bones, so they pulled away the silk threads on their bodies and trembled in fear.

Su Mian saw that Song Yu's expression had not changed much. He was not affected by the spirit as before, and he thought that Zhong Liqing, this pretty boy, still had some abilities.

"The monster is coming." The three bald man reluctantly took a step forward, trying to get to Song Yu.

Song Yu's small body looked very reliable, and it had already grown to seven feet in his heart.

However, as soon as he took a step, there was a crisp sound under his feet. It was the expanded insect eggs that he stepped on.

Under the silent night sky, three more sounds rang out.

The three-bald man couldn't tell the difference between water and urine on his body, and he went through the most difficult journey in his life.

He wanted to speak, but fear wrapped around his tongue and prevented him from uttering a word.

After a while, he finally regained his senses and retched violently.

Along with the sound of his retching, there were countless screams. The dark Xiangguo Temple was like a giant beast, awakened by insect bites and ant bites.

The fourth watch bell rang in a hurry, and there was chaos everywhere. Song Yu was invited to the abbot's office.

The abbot is already eighty. He was originally in good spirits and wanted to live for another 20 years. However, after last night's incident, he almost suffered from heartache and was taken to the West by the Buddha.

Today it is haggard.

A total of eight monks died, plus the four younger brothers brought by the three bald men, twelve died.

I also injured a ringer.

Because of this major incident, Li Bi, director of the Decryption Department, hurried over and was very busy. While asking people to block the news, he asked Su Mian about last night's situation.

He originally wanted to ask Song Yu, but Song Yu kept sitting aside and devouring food without stopping, so he was not the right person to ask questions.

After finally finishing eating, she hugged her stomach and burped: "I'm so full."

Li Bi: "."

He wanted Song Yu to get out with her dog mouth.

"Master Li, can we leave?" Song Yu wanted to get out.

"The matter is not finished yet. Why don't you leave? Just be honest." Li Bi gave up the idea of ​​telling Song Yu to get out on the spot.

He always felt good about himself and believed that he was selected by the emperor because of his outstanding talent. He did not expect that no one was willing to do such a bad thing at that time.

With this good feeling about himself, he formulated three plans on paper.

"Take a look, which one is suitable?"

"It's all good, it's all good." The three bald men applauded and praised, but because of his numb expression and vain eyes, this flattery was soulless and became a satire.

Li Bi's face looked ugly.

Song Yu looked at the three steps he had formulated to send him to death, but he couldn't give a hypocritical compliment no matter what.

She felt that Li Bi was a mascot of the Decryption Department.

Just sit in the Decryption Department and record the files, give names to various spirits, and then do some commanding and that's it.

If you make suggestions here, you will die faster.

But Li Bi obviously did not have this consciousness.

She quietly winked at Su Mian, who walked around behind Li Bi and knocked him out with a stick.

get in the way.

Three bald men: "."

He glanced at Su Mian in fear, and clapped again numbly: "Master Li is indeed Master Li, even his posture when he fainted was so heroic."

Song Yu said: "It's over, it's useless."

She sighed and walked out.

Su Mian followed with a stick: "What are you looking for?"

Day and night are two different worlds. Any traces that appeared at night have disappeared, and Xiangguo Temple is peaceful again.

If so many people hadn't died, no one would have been able to imagine what had happened that night.

"Looking for the spiritual nest."

Song Yu watched as he walked.

They do not appear during the day and only appear and reproduce at night. During the day, the spirits always need a place to live.

Moreover, the eggs have already entered the human body. At night, they begin to feed and grow, and finally leave the body.

Mature spirits will lay eggs again, continue to forage and reproduce, and eventually become a huge family.

Then there must be a spiritual nest.

"Spirit nest? It doesn't seem to be mentioned in the file." Su Mian frowned.

He had read all the files that Song Yu knew about, so why didn't he remember mentioning the spiritual nest?

"I've seen it, it's like a honeycomb, very big." Song Yu made a hugging gesture, "But it's not a spirit like this, but a spirit like a locust. It's called a locust in the file."

The mention of 'migratory locust' made Su Mian think of it.

This dossier is old and very simple, with only a few lines.

Song Yu never asked him to read the dossier. It was only when he asked Li Bi after seeing it that he found out that the dossier was dictated by Song Yu.

She was ten years old at the time and could not explain many details clearly.

But she was the only survivor at that time, and she still carried a ghost hunter's token with her. Even if she has this on her now, there is no way to find anyone else to prove it.

Apart from a few simple sentences in the file, she had never mentioned this matter. If the spirit nest hadn't appeared, she probably wouldn't have said it.

At the moment, she didn't say much, she just talked about the spiritual nest.

"Some spirits can reproduce. This kind of spirit will have a spiritual nest. After foraging for food, it will return to the spiritual nest. We can find the spiritual nest and burn the spiritual nest."

During the day, the spirits in the spirit nest are sleeping as expected.

Su Mian didn't ask much. Everyone has secrets, so there's no need to dig into them.

"But there's no trace at all, how can we find it?"

Su Mian raised his head and glanced at the roof. There were no spider webs at all.

"The most difficult thing is to find the spirit nest." Song Yu sighed and turned around.

If it was so easy to find, it wouldn't be called Spirit Nest.

But finding a spirit nest doesn’t mean just wandering around. Spirit nests like to be built in hidden places, and the space must be large.

The number of reproducing spirits is large, and the spirit nests are also very large.

And this spirit nest must be bigger than what Song Yue encountered, because the spirit alone is much bigger.

It is much easier to find a secluded and large place in Xiangguo Temple.

The two went directly to the bell tower.

The bell tower of Xiangguo Temple has a very large copper bell, which weighs five thousand kilograms. It is extremely huge and is very suitable for nesting.

The "Xiangguo Frost Bell" is emitted by this bell.

Every late autumn, when the chrysanthemums and yellow frost fall, people cannot bear the cold weather and start to feel lazy. Only this bell still shakes the capital every day at the fourth watch.

The sixteen-character inscription "The sun always turns, the emperor's image is eternal, the emperor's path is prosperous, and the Buddha's sun shines brighter" is cast on the bell.

"Dharma car." Song Yu stared at it and found that ten of the sixteen words he didn't recognize, so he immediately gave up and said, "Look for the spirit."

She bent down and took a look.

The result was surprising: it was empty, with nothing in it.
