Chapter 456 The Cause of the Mutation

According to Shangguan Qing, there are many water sources along the way, and the water is not polluted and can be drunk directly, so a few people don't need to waste energy to carry so much drinking water, they only need to buy enough food That's it.

Because the destination of everyone this time is the tropical rainforest in Yunnan, they have made sufficient preparations. Some things needed for mountain climbing have already been prepared, and everyone has almost prepared other things before departure. Now The only thing missing is food.After discussing for a while, several people made up the shopping list.

The things to buy are the same old stuff, high calorie stuff that will support the team for a longer period of time while carrying the same weight.

The route has been finalized, and the list of things to buy has been made. As soon as several people discuss it, they are ready to say goodbye to Shangguan Qing, and then go to find her brother to find out the meaning of the Gu on the picture as soon as possible.At this time, Shangguan Qing spoke.

"Sister Xu, can I take a few more minutes of your time? I have something to ask for your help."

"Good sister, if you have anything to say, it's okay. As long as we can help, we will spare no effort to help you. You have helped us a lot when we are here, and you and I are not outsiders. If you have anything to say Just say it."

"Okay, Sister Xu, that's it. When you entered that room just now, all the Gu worms in the room were agitated. I still can't figure out this matter, and I feel very uncomfortable in my heart. I think Find out why.

My elder brother used the most orthodox method of refining Gu, he firmly believed that only Gu worms raised by women would have the best effect.So for so many years, I have been in charge of raising Gu.

And my elder brother was just looking for some insects or other animals that could be refined into Gu worms outside, brought them back for mating, and gave them to me to cultivate, so I still have deep feelings for these Gu worms.

I have been raising Gu for so many years, and I have never seen such a scene just now. I want to know what attracts these Gu insects. If I can figure out the reason, it may be of great help to the Gu I raise in the future. .

I thought about it carefully just now, there is nothing special about what you are wearing, so the problem can only be on each of you, it must be something in your body that attracted those Gu worms.

You really don’t need to waste much time, you just need five of you to enter the room separately, if those Gu worms start agitating again, it means that the person who entered the room is the one who attracted the Gu worms, just ask him about his experience What special things, or what special things have been eaten, may reveal the secret. "

After listening to Shangguan Qing's words, the five people looked at each other a few times. In fact, even if Shangguan Qing didn't say anything, they planned to clarify this matter. Things may be related to the safety of everyone.

This time everyone's destination is the treasure left by Yuan Tiangang, but when Yuan Tiangang recorded the treasure, he even used a picture of a Gu insect. When it comes to Gu worms, even if you don't meet them, you still have something to do with them.

Gu worms are not powerful, and if they are not powerful, they are likely to easily kill people.So, in case there are really some weird Gu worms at the destination this time, when everyone arrives there, it may cause the Gu worms to go crazy again, and maybe the Gu worms around will regard a few people as targets of attack .

The Gu worms that can be recorded by Yuan Tiangang are definitely not ordinary things!Much more powerful than ordinary Gu worms.Although it has been said for so many years, whether those Gu worms can exist is still a problem, but if those Gu worms really exist, the five people may be wiped out by then.

When Shangguan Qing appeased those Gu worms before, the five people had analyzed and wanted to find out who caused the changes of those Gu worms. After discussing, the targets were concentrated on three people.

Yang Lei and Shan Shishuai were the first to be excluded from the team, because these two people had relatively little experience, and everyone agreed that they were unlikely to cause the mutation of Gu insects.

Taoist Xiaoyuan, who is a Maoshan alchemist, has been dealing with various medicines or things that can make alchemy all year round, and she also has to often test the elixir she made.

So it is very possible that some pill qi has accumulated in her body, and it is very likely that the smell of these pill qi makes those Gu worms feel very eager.

As a master of the Maoshan Formation, Jin Huang has very strong mana in his body. When he was in the Taoist holy land, Jin Huang exhausted all the mana in his body, and at the same time, the vitality in his body was sucked up by the bronze mirror, and he became old all of a sudden. Tens of years old, it is very likely that his current physique made those Gu worms interested.

It is also possible that he took some relatively rare pills in the later stage of treatment. Taoist Xiaoyuan's treatment of Jin Huang is still going on, and the medicine hasn't stopped at all, so there is a lot of pill energy in Jin Huang's body , which may also be a reason.

Not to mention Chen Ziyang, when he was looking for the ancient country of Yumi, he was once absorbed by the strange diamond to absorb the blood essence in his body, and later he was cured by the blood essence emitted by the diamond.

Later, he used the forbidden technique of seven-star body protection, which almost caused his soul to go out of his body. Fortunately, he ate the heart of the tree demon to save his life.The tree demon's heart is not something that everyone can come across. It is a very rare thing. No one can tell what its function is. Maybe Gu worms just like the smell of the tree demon's heart.

When he went to salvage the Bailang pill some time ago, Chen Ziyang injected another extract of the dragon's blood strain. This medicine is better than the red mist that a few people absorbed from the dragon's blood strain when they were in the Bohai underground palace. Much more intense.

Whether it is those adventures, or the extract of the dragon's blood strain, or the heart of the dryad, it may arouse the interest of Gu insects.

So now the three people are not sure, and they don't know who the problem is. Now that Shangguan Qing has proposed this idea, several people are also interested in verifying it.

The verification method put forward by Shangguan Qing is very reasonable. You can immediately figure out who caused the restlessness of the Gu insects. As long as you find this person, you can basically guess what attracted the Gu insects. up.

After the three nodded slightly, Xu Xiaoyuan said to Shangguan Qing: "Okay, sister, we also want to know the reason, let's come one by one."

Although several people agreed that the possibility of Yang Lei and Sanshi Shuai was relatively small, everyone was unwilling to miss any possibility.So after discussing, let these two people enter the room first.

As expected, after the two entered the room, the Gu worms were very quiet, as if no one came in, and these two were the first to be excluded.

The next person who entered the room was Jin Huang. Although Jin Huang might be the person who caused the Gu to be restless, everyone agreed that the possibility of him was very small. Gu worms generally like people who are full of vitality. People are delicious as food.

Although Jin Huang has almost been healed, the vitality in his body is limited and has not yet returned to its peak state, and the alchemy in his body is definitely not as strong as that in Daoist Xiaoyuan's body, so no matter how you look at it, Jin Huang is less likely than Chen Ziyang and Xu Xiaoyuan.Sure enough, Jin Huang also returned without success.

After glancing at Chen Ziyang, Xu Xiaoyuan walked into the room.When she just walked into the room, she suddenly saw the toad in a glass bottle on the side jumping violently, and looked in her direction.

Immediately afterwards, the crawling speed of some Gu worms in another glass bottle suddenly increased. The Gu worms in this bottle kept crawling on the inner wall of the bottle, and the speed was obviously much faster than before.

Xu Xiaoyuan's eyes widened in surprise, she didn't expect that it was herself who caused the Gu worm to change.After waiting for a few seconds, she shook her head again.

Although quite a few Gu worms in the bottles became agitated, the degree of agitation was significantly less than last time, and not all the Gu worms in the bottles had abnormal movements, only a very small number of them part.

This time, the scale of the Gu insects' restlessness was much smaller, and it took longer from the moment someone entered the room to the occurrence of the mutation. After waiting for a while, some Gu insects reacted.

Looking around the room, Xu Xiaoyuan nodded and roughly figured out the reason.

Although all Gu worms are contained in glass bottles, the lid of this glass bottle is not made of glass. The top of the lid is actually a layer of gauze. It is estimated that this design is to prevent suffocation Gu worms packed in glass bottles.

These gauzes are all breathable. I have practiced the pills for so many years, and I often take some pills. The pills in my body are very strong. After the pills are emitted from the pores, they are mixed in the air. And through these gauze, into the glass bottle.

A small number of these Gu worms in the glass bottles became interested in these pill qi, so they became agitated, which is why after entering the room for a while, some Gu worms reacted. This period of time was exactly the time it took for the Dan Qi to float into the air and enter the glass bottle again.

And because the living habits of each type of Gu are different, not all Gu insects are interested in these pills, therefore, only a small number of Gu insects are restless.

Shangguan Qing, who was standing at the door of the room, was very happy when she saw some Gu worms moved, but then she also reacted.

It seemed that the problem was not with Taoist Xiaoyuan, so when Xu Xiaoyuan walked out of the room, everyone's eyes were on Chen Ziyang.

"This..." Chen Ziyang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he felt a little dry, what's going on?What is it about me that makes these Gu worms so obsessed?
Although the answer was obvious, Shangguan Qing still wanted to confirm it again, so she stood guard at the door and looked at Chen Ziyang with a pair of watery eyes full of longing.

After nodding his head, Chen Ziyang walked into the room again.The situation was basically the same as last time, the moment Chen Ziyang walked into the room, all the Gu insects fell into madness, and the glass bottles were made to rattle by these things.

After only staying in the room for a second, Chen Ziyang immediately turned around and left. He was worried that if he stayed too long, the situation would become difficult to control.Shangguan Qing also hurried into the room to appease the Gu worms.

This time, the five people who stayed outside the room did not discuss anything, but were all lost in thought, thinking about the reasons, or recalling some things they had experienced in the past, trying to find out the answer.

"Mr. Chen, what exactly have you experienced? Or have you eaten any strange things? Can you tell me so that I can have some reference." Shangguan Qing, who walked out of the room, couldn't wait to come to Chen Ziyang's side , opened his mouth and asked.

None of the five people spoke.After a while, Chen Ziyang opened his mouth to Shangguan Qing, but he didn't even say a word, just showing a hesitant expression.

"My dear sister, to be honest, we have studied it for a long time, but no one can figure out what's going on, but you don't have to be discouraged. When we think about the reason, we will tell you as soon as possible."

Xu Xiaoyuan's words were actually excuses, she didn't understand what Chen Ziyang meant.She knew exactly what Chen Ziyang was doing. It was impossible to tell Shangguan Qing about many things. Even if Chen Ziyang thought of the reason, he couldn't tell, so Xu Xiaoyuan immediately smoothed things over.

"Well, what a pity! But Sister Xu, I beg you to do another thing. If you find my brother, you must introduce Mr. Chen to him and tell him the whole thing. Maybe he I will help Mr. Chen analyze the answer." Shangguan Qing still did not give up, and made another request.

"Sister Qing, don't worry about this. Even if you don't open your mouth, we will tell your brother. There are many things involved in this matter. If we don't understand it, we will feel uneasy."

With Xu Xiaoyuan's guarantee, Shangguan Qing was finally happier.After exchanging a few words with Shangguan Qing, the five people left. They still have business to do.

Shangguan Qing didn't hold back any more, and sent the five people out of the door, watching them get into the car and drive away.During the whole process, Shangguan Qing's gaze never left Chen Ziyang.

After buying all the food that needed to be carried in a relatively large supermarket nearby, the five of them sat in the car and drove towards the mountain range where Shangguan Qing's brother might be located.
