After the immortal disappeared

It was always for others to ask him for advice. How could he ever feel this kind of embarrassment today?

"It is said in the family ancestor's remains..." As soon as the words He Lingchuan came out, Dong Rui rolled his eyes, "... the Chifeng Mine in the northwest of the Chipa Plateau was once occupied by an unknown monster. It not only ate miners, It eats villagers, and also eats many patrols that go into the cave to deal with them. It can combine the mother and the mine into a nest, so the structure inside is very similar to the human body!"

He Lingchuan pointed at these soft leathers and said: "After the human mother loses consciousness, the torturer uses these tendons to connect her to the cave and transform her."

"A nest?" Dong Rui frowned even more tightly, "Like a human body?"

"The Eater is also the son of a god." Zhu Erniang answered quietly, "Among the gods, Jindu Mother cannot be called powerful, but she can give birth to ghost cubs. The most powerful among them is the Eater, who even surpasses Mother’s ability! It will find a place to build a nest as soon as it is born. As long as the nest is built, it will be difficult for others to defeat it in it.”

He Lingchuan looked shocked: "How did you know?"

"I have dealt with them in ancient times." Zhu Erniang said proudly, "These so-called...gods!"

"The divine son of Jindu Mother?" Dong Rui looked around, "Then divine son, no, where is the tormentor now?"

"They must have been killed." Zhu Erniang said, "When I checked into the Demon Nest, it was already empty."

He Lingchuan was surprised: "It has devoured all the people in Janna, and even this swamp is named after the devil's nest it built. Who can kill the predator?"

"The Kingdom of Bega."

This answer is a bit surprising.

"At that time, there were not only the Jana people in the swamp, but also seven or eight tribes; outside the swamp, Xishandang was dotted with villages and towns, and there were also people. The tormentors went out to look for food after eating all the Jana people. In more than ten years, almost It devoured all living creatures within a radius of three hundred miles. Later, this thing moved westward, and two military towns stationed on the border of Bega Kingdom were also wiped out by it. Such monsters were invading the country, and Bega Kingdom could not sit idly by and do nothing. Send strong men to get rid of it." Zhu Erniang waved her front paws, "Of course, this is what the survivors of the Jiana tribe said, and I don't know any further details."

Have the food abusers here been eliminated by Bega Kingdom?

"However, once the mother placed on this table is disconnected from the cave, the cave should return to normal." He Lingchuan didn't understand, "There is no one on this table, so why does the entire Demon Nest remain the same? Change back?"

"I don't know." With Zhu Erniang's extensive experience, she can only give two guesses, "Either she lay here for too long and changed the entire cave; or, this tormentor is too powerful. "

Whatever the reason, she didn't care.

Dong Rui carefully observed the so-called tendons and even took a knife and cut several pieces off: "Since it is related to Jindu Zai, this thing is valuable! It is worth studying, worth studying."

He Lingchuan walked around the stone room and suddenly found a pile of gravel in the deepest corner, as if something was buried.

When he walked over and took a look, he saw a deep pit dug under the rubble. A white skeleton was buried in it, but half of it was exposed.

"I pulled this apart to see." When Zhu Erniang came here for the first time, the rubble was well covered.

Why are these bones buried here?

In front of the small gravel mound, there is a square stone standing like a monument, but it is blank and has no words, and a pattern is painted on it.

It looked like half a maple leaf, but he wasn't sure.

The lines are black, like drawn with charcoal strips.

He Lingchuan immediately remembered that since he entered the underground palace, he occasionally saw various patterns on the stone walls, which were also drawn with charcoal strips, imitating flowers, birds, insects and fish, and various incomprehensible lines, like children's graffiti.

"Who painted this?"

Dong Rui also saw this pattern and said casually: "Maybe some wild children came in to play and scribble." He glanced at Zhu Erniang and added, "Before these big monsters moved in."

Zhu Erniang immediately retorted: "When I came, the entrance to the underground palace was sealed with sandstone."

He Lingchuan suddenly felt horrified.

If no one entered the crypt after the tormentor disappeared, who could have done the graffiti?

Dong Rui didn't care about these trivial matters. He squatted down and inspected the bones: "Well, it's a woman. Judging from the age of the bones, she is probably in her forties."

A woman who can appear in the stone room at the center of the Demon Nest?

"Is she the human mother of the tormentor?" He Lingchuan turned around and pointed at the stone platform, "She was supposed to be lying there. Who would bury her here?"

"Could it be that the Bega people who killed the tormentor buried it?"

"Maybe." He Lingchuan stared at the obelisk.

He had just fought a tormentor in his dream. There are still a few claw marks on the ground, very much like those left by a tormentor.

What Dong Rui said makes sense. Burying the dead is something only humans can do.

But deep down in his heart, he had a weird and absurd speculation.

Is it possible?

"Okay, I have fulfilled your request, and the medicinal materials have arrived. It's time for you to work for me!" Zhu Erniang began to drive away the two of them.

She also knows that haste makes waste, and she is not in a hurry. I’ve been waiting for thousands of years, and there’s still only one or two months to go?

On the way back to Dong Rui's workshop, He Lingchuan's mind was a mess.

He really didn't expect that the last dream would actually be connected with reality.

Two devil's nests, two tormentors...

Did they all really exist?

Did Dafang Hu discover that he was about to drift into the Demon Nest Swamp with the water of Han River, so he arranged the task of Chifeng Mine in his dream?

Is it to help him better understand reality?

He Lingchuan felt that it was more than that.

His tasks and actions in dreams are always guided intentionally or unintentionally.

Who is doing this, Dafang Hu?

Does this artifact have its own consciousness?

He Lingchuan had so many things going on in his mind, he always felt like there were some clues flashing before his eyes, but he just couldn't catch them.

Just a little bit.

It’s always a little bit worse!

This feels so crazy.

"Hey, we're here!" Dong Rui in front stopped and waved his hand in front of him, "Has your soul been sucked away by Zhu Erniang?"

Unless the second mother is a hot little girl. He Lingchuan knocked his hand off: "What are you doing?"

"Help." Dong Rui pointed to the medicinal materials piled into a hill in the corner, and then pointed to two square stones larger than the millstone. "First make a stone mill and grind them all into powder!"

"Don't you have a medicine grinder?" Young Master He doesn't like hard work.

"My medicine grinder is only big enough, but it can't grind much medicine. You have to make me one bigger than a stone mill." Dong Rui squinted at him, "I specially asked you to be my assistant. If you don't want to do it, I will Go back to Zhu Erniang’s place.”

It's not a good thing to keep dangling in front of a man-eating spider demon, as it can easily arouse people's appetite. He Lingchuan sighed and drew his sword to cut the stone.

This kind of work shouldn't be done with a long knife, but they were in the middle of the swamp and had no other handy tools. How has Fu Sheng Dao ever experienced such grievance?

He Lingchuan cut it carefully, for fear of damaging the sword.

The spider guard was at the door, supervising the two of them in their work.

"Peel it flat and then polish it. Yes, flatten it a little so that you can use it later." Dong Rui was sorting the medicine materials, and his mouth was not idle.

The spider demon also found some axes, chisels and other human tools for them. He Lingchuan took them over and said, "Can you make another No. 34? If you need any base materials, I will find a way to catch them for you."

Number 34 is the strange bird that led Dong Rui to escape several times. This devil's nest is surrounded by spiders, and they may have to go to heaven to escape.

"You think I don't want to?" Dong Rui said angrily, "Before the transformation, No. 34 was a broad-nosed bat, but it had a trace of the blood of an ancient demon. Do you know how many years I spent searching to find such a bat?! Do you think Demon puppets can be made at any time, like the wooden puppets on the streets? Huh?"

His voice got louder and louder as he spoke, and he was obviously very angry.

Without a demon puppet in hand, what kind of demon puppet master is he?

He Lingchuan smiled and said: "I see that the demon puppets you created are all obeying your words. Can you...?" Because there were spider guards outside, he did not say anything openly, but pointed in the direction of the ventricle cave.

If Dong Rui could control Zhu Erniang through body modification, that would be awesome.

But if that were the case, He Lingchuan would be the first one to escape.

"It's a beautiful idea." Dong Rui sighed, "The demon puppets I transformed in the past were either raised from childhood, had simple minds, or were seriously injured and lost consciousness. Only then can they wash away the old knowledge and recognize me as the master. Zhu Erniang is an ancient person. The spirits of the remaining great demons are probably many times tougher than yours and mine. If I dare to do this, I am seeking death."

"Then how confident are you that you can create the medicine it needs?"

Dong Rui was silent.

He took out the sinew left by the tormentor and cut it into several parts, either burning it or soaking it in potion, and grinding another part into powder.

Just when He Lingchuan thought that this guy was not going to speak, he shook his head: "I can't say. If the potion you stole is still there, or even if I get some body samples from Jindu Zai, the success rate will increase. "

He Lingchuan asked curiously: "Can the Jindu ghost cub also come in handy?"

"Nonsense!" Dong Rui glared, "The Jindu ghost cub is half human and half god, it is simply the prototype of the beast! If the gods made the beast, they might have used it as a model!"

He Lingchuan thought about it. The Jindu ghost cub can walk in the human world, has almost no fear of Yuan force, and has powerful and strange powers. The beasts that appeared in the early Middle Ages also had these characteristics.

"However, the predator is not in the devil's nest either. The only thing left is these tendon-like tissues. Alas, it's not easy to deal with." Dong Rui also scratched his head, "Now go and crush the medicine! By the way, take out the weakest one in the corner." Catch the spider demon!"

Five test subjects are also in place. Zhu Erniang didn't feel sorry for her children, and he had no burden to do experiments.

The spider demon was delivered with five flowers tied up in it. This one was reddish in color, reminding He Lingchuan of the hairy crabs that come every September.

Unexpectedly, Dong Rui raised the knife and removed all eight of its claws, causing it to squeal in pain.
