The end of the world begins with failing an exam

"Actually, I was planning to kill them."

Hearing Qiao Youning suddenly say this, Chen Jing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but before he could say anything, Qiao Youning sighed.

"But since the temple knows about Yukongshan, there is no need to kill them. It might cause more trouble..."

"Actually, you don't have to kill anyone." Chen Jing smiled, "Hurry up, I'll take the Bodhi fetus and leave. People from your temple won't be able to find me when they come."

"That's what I thought." Qiao Youning nodded and whispered, "Actually, I lied to you."

"Huh? Lied to me?" Chen Jing was stunned.

"Yes, I lied to you that I couldn't catch the Bodhi fetus and needed your help. In fact, I could catch it. I just wanted to meet you here... here. Friends always want to get together!"

Qiao Youning explained with a guilty look on her face. At the end, she even pulled out her friend's reasons. She spoke a little incoherently, and even Wei Nanyanque beside her could hear her nervousness.

"What's there to apologize for..." Wei Nan put his arm around Qiao Youning's delicate shoulders and patted them gently, "I often lied to him to get him to play with me, how dare he get angry!"

"No need to apologize to me." Chen Jing smiled and comforted, "I am already very grateful that you can help me with ideas to cure the old man's illness. I can do small things like collecting herbs by myself, how can I let you run around..."

"It's a pity that we don't have any Bodhi fetuses in stock in the temple, otherwise I can get them for you directly in the temple."

Qiao Youning's expression became more and more self-blaming, and she seemed to regret letting Chen Jing make this trip. If the temple found Chen Jing, there might be a lot of trouble.

"Otherwise, you take Wei Nan and the others back first. It is estimated that the elders of the temple will be here soon. When they finish handling this matter, I will ask them to help me catch some Bodhi fetuses and then let you take them."

"What if there are no Bodhi fetuses?"

Yan Que suddenly asked. She remembered what the two monks said before, and seemed to have analyzed the strange phenomenon that appeared in Yukong Mountain for a long time.

"The chanting sound in the underground space, the missing Bodhi fetus... Are you sure those things can be found?"

Hearing this, Qiao Youning did not speak, and her brows slowly frowned, as if she also felt that this matter was a little uncertain.

Yukong Mountain is a very familiar place for her. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the back garden of the temple. It is not the first or second time to come here to catch Bodhi fetuses. There are even a few times when she came here as a leader to practice with young monks.

"If what they said is true... this mountain really has an underground space that popped up out of nowhere... then the temple will definitely take it very seriously... because this kind of thing has never happened before..."

"Then hurry up."

Chen Jing smiled and comforted, as if he didn't take the trouble of the temple seriously.

The biggest trouble for him is that he can't find those Bodhi fetuses. If he really makes such a trip in vain, he will probably be depressed to death when he returns.

What's more, Chen Jing knows how much the old man is looking forward to the day when his strength recovers.

As a grandson.

Chen Jing doesn't want to disappoint his grandfather.

Just like when he was studying, he studied hard every day and didn't want to disappoint his grandmother. That's the reason.

"I remember you told me that Bodhi fetuses are also a kind of ancient race, very similar to Bai Aji, and have the characteristics of creatures in the old days..." Chen Jing said while raising his hand.

Everyone saw that many golden light particles suddenly appeared in the air.

They were like dust, swaying in the air and slowly gathered in Chen Jing's hands at a very slow speed.

"There is no smell of them on the surface, at least the radars I have released have not found them, but there are many strange smells underground in the southeast, about 150 in number."

"Underground in the southeast?" Qiao Youning frowned.

"The number of sensor feedback may not be accurate, because it is too far from the surface. At least about 50 meters, the 'signal' is still somewhat affected..."

After saying that, Chen Jing grabbed Qiao Youning's slender wrist, and then reached out to grab Yan Que's hand.

"Don't forget me!" Wei Nan was quick-witted and jumped directly onto Chen Jing's back, hanging steadily like a koala.

"Actually, I wanted to tell you from the beginning..."

Chen Jing glanced at Qiao Youning, who had a dazed expression, and a beautiful smile appeared on his face.

"You said that the Bodhi embryos are timid and hide in the ground at the slightest sign of trouble... But I can burrow underground!"

"???"

"Since someone from the temple will be coming soon, let's hurry up."

Chen Jing's body collapsed into a golden light, and he took Qiao Youning and the others from the foot of the mountain to the southeast mountainside.

In fact, at this time, Chen Jing was not as nervous as before, because from the feedback of those breaths, the Bodhi embryos should be in the underground space in the mountain.

As long as they are still there, it's easy to say.

As for whether it is easy to dig out from underground...

He can even break into Raphael's moonlight field, let alone the rocky loess that is only a few dozen meters thick?

If it weren't for the fact that the Bodhi embryos were too fragile, Chen Jing would probably choose to open a big hole in the mountain, either blasting them out directly with the golden holy light, or letting the black star's star blade cut them out.

In a flash.

Chen Jing led everyone to the mountainside southeast of Yukong Mountain.

"You guys wait for me here, I'll be back as soon as I go."

"good."

Under the curious eyes of Qiao Youning and the others, Chen Jing once again gradually turned his physical body into nothingness, just like the time when he passed through the moonlight realm and quickly sank to the surface without feeling any resistance...

"Sister Youning." Wei Nan came to Qiao Youning's side and seemed to still want to go to Jizhou City. "Can't we go to Jizhou City with you this time?"

"Next time." Qiao Youning sighed and raised her hand to touch Wei Nan's head. "The two monks at the foot of the mountain have seen you. I'm afraid that you will attract attention when I go back. I'll wait until the limelight is over."

"Don't think about playing, okay..." Yan Que rolled his eyes at Wei Nan angrily, "Finish the business first, there will be plenty of opportunities to play in the future!"

"You are serious!" Wei Nan snorted unconvinced, "If Ajing hadn't brought us here, we might not have had the opportunity to come to Jiju Capital to gain experience in this life. Besides, he..."

At this moment, Wei Nan's voice suddenly stopped.

The three of them looked at the place where Chen Jinggang disappeared. The soft soil on the surface was constantly crawling, as if something was about to come up from below.

"Why does this guy move so fast? Are those Bodhi fetuses so easy to catch?"

Wei Nan muttered something with surprise on his face, and then squatted on the ground silently, looking at the squirming mound in front of him, with a look on his face that was eager to try.

"See if I don't scare him to death!"

At the same time, both Qiao Youning and Yan Que felt that something was not right.

Looking at the soil that was constantly shaking off the mound, the expressions on their faces gradually became wary, because they could not sense Chen Jing's breath...

But unfortunately, Wei Nan didn't realize the abnormality, and still squatted on the ground happily until Yan Que couldn't see it anymore and wanted to drag her away... At this moment, something hidden in the ground came out.

It was a face as thin as a corpse.

As soon as he emerged from the soil, he came face to face with Wei Nan.

"Damn it!! There's a ghost!!!"

Chapter 393: The Man in the Painting·Two-Dimensional Creature (Part 1)

When Chen Jing passed through the surface rocks and arrived at the bottom of Yukong Mountain, he felt that the aura below was getting stronger and stronger, and the number was also increasing, from a hundred at the beginning to three or four hundred... …

soon.

Chen Jing stopped, but he was not in a hurry to get out of the "state of nothingness", but was suspended in this underground cave like air.

"The area here is quite small..."

Chen Jing looked around, muttering to himself as he observed the cave, which was almost the size of a football field.

On the walls and dome of the cave, there are many ink-like markings printed on them. Those things are like living creatures, twisting their bodies silently from beginning to end, like earthworms crawling on the muddy ground after rain. Moving at an extremely slow speed.

Chen Jing took a closer look and found that they really seemed to be ink...

"These ghosts are almost emptying the mountain."

Hearing this voice that suddenly sounded in his mind, Chen Jing couldn't help but ask.

"Do you recognize these things?"

"I don't know them, I've never seen them, but I can see that they are very hungry. I'm afraid they will eat up the mountain completely before they give up..."

The "him" in Chen Jing's mind yawned for a long time, as if he had just woken up, and spoke in a lazy voice.

"Those Bodhi embryos are down there, grab a few of them and leave."

"good."

Chen Jing ignored these strange phenomena inside the cave and kept sinking to the ground. When he raised his eyes, he saw the Bodhi embryos that made him think about them day and night.

To be honest, although I heard Qiao Youning introduce the strange appearance of Bodhi Fetus, I still felt a little scared when I saw it with my own eyes.

The size of the Bodhi fetus is very similar to that of a human baby of several months old.

The limbs are distinct.

Possessing certain human characteristics.

But it was covered from head to toe with countless beady, translucent pustules.

It was like bunches of terrifying human grapes squirming on the ground, with sticky sounds constantly coming from their joints, and from time to time they could be heard whimpering like children.

Say it with your conscience in mind.

No matter how he looked at it, Chen Jing didn't think they could be used to treat diseases.

These things are like tumors that have grown into sperm. The more I look at them, the more my scalp feels numb.

"This thing is quite strange..."

"Have you ever seen it before?"

"Well, in the memory of deep space, these things do belong to the same era as Baiaji. At that time, they had a difficult-to-pronounce name. What was it called... Manitou?"

"A kind of humanoid creature?"

"It doesn't count. It just has the outline of a human. It's not even comparable to a monkey. It's probably equal to...a frog, right? It's an amphibian!"

Hearing "his" explanation, Chen Jing felt a little unreliable, but when he got closer and carefully observed these Bodhi fetuses, he discovered something even more outrageous... There seemed to be some kind of abnormality in the bodies of these Bodhi fetuses. A pathological aberration.

Look carefully.

Only half of their bodies are left.

Since these Bodhi fetuses were all lying on their backs on the ground, with their limbs waving wildly, Chen Jing didn't notice anything unusual about them at first. It wasn't until he got closer that he saw clearly... Their bodies next to the ground had already became flat.

Like butter melted by high temperature.

The bodies covered with pustules were sucked tightly to the ground, and no matter how they struggled, they could not move at all.

"There is something strange on the ground..."

At this moment, "he" also saw something wrong, and his tone became solemn.

"I seem to have seen this method somewhere..."

Just when Chen Jing was about to ask, a vague chanting sound suddenly came from the other end of the cave.

It should be the voice of an old man.

Hoarse and low.

It seemed to be chanting scriptures in an extremely ancient language, with unclear pronunciation and very vague. After listening for a while, Chen Jing could only barely distinguish a few key words, namely... Bodhi, spiritual enlightenment, sexlessness, and emptiness.

"I checked when I came down. There are only these Bodhi embryos in this cave, no other creatures..."

Although Chen Jing still maintained this almost invincible "nothingness", he intuitively felt a danger from the chanting sound.

After being tricked by Raphael once.

Chen Jing became more and more cautious.

Be cautious and hide as much as possible.

Especially when he went underground alone like before, he was always observing the movements in all directions during the descent, and only dared to land on the ground after making sure there were no other uncontrollable factors.

In his memory.

The direction from which the chanting sound came was always empty.

There was nothing there.

Empty.
