C899 Tomb
The sound of his footsteps and Fifteen's footsteps echoed in this space, making people feel a little cold in their hearts.
"I said, what is this place?" Lee Yang asked in a low voice.
Fifteen said, "Under the gate."
Lee Yang widened his eyes. "Under the door? Was there such a huge space underneath the door? How could it be so dark? Could there be something strange running out?"
Fifteen said, "I don't know."
"You don't know?" Lee Yang was surprised again. "You brought me here even though you didn't know. Big brother, this is the Tomb of Heaven Emperor, the place where Fu Xi lived. God knows how dangerous this place is. Tell me now that you don't know about it. Hey, this joke isn't funny at all. Can you be a little more serious? My heart isn't very good. It's easy to be frightened."
Fifteen impatiently said, "If you keep nagging, I won't care about you anymore."
Lee Yang quickly gave in. As a person, one should know when to be tough and when to be gentle.
As the saying goes, a wise man knows when to act according to the circumstances. There was absolutely no mistake in saying this.
The two of them were strolling in this dark space. After an unknown period of time, Lee Yang felt like he was about to collapse.
Although they were holding oil lamps and two of them were walking, in such a sealed space... In such a dark place, they heard their own footsteps. It was like hell on earth.
Lee Yang was afraid that the previous situation would occur. He grabbed Fifteen's clothes with one hand, as if he was a stupid son.
Although Fifteen was a little unhappy, there was nothing he could do.
Another half incense stick of time passed. Fifteen suddenly stopped in his tracks. Lee Yang did not notice it at all, and knocked his head against Fifteen's back.
"Why did you stop?" Lee Yang rubbed his head and said unhappily.
"Listen?" Fifteen frowned and said, "What strange sound is it?"
Lee Yang listened for a long time, but he did not feel any strange sound. Instead, his neck was numb, as if there was a mosquito biting it.
There was actually a mosquito in Fu Xi's old grave. This did not make sense.
Lee Yang raised his hand and hit it, but it scared him so much that all the hair on his body stood up.
He caught a thing that looked like a caterpillar.
A lump of meat was directly arranged into a lump of meat paste by his gravity, and there was even juice splashing out. That feeling was unbelievable.
Lee Yang slowly took his hand down and put it under the oil lamp to take a look. Not only did the hairs on his body stand up, but they also spread out one by one.
This was a caterpillar with a strange shape. Although it had turned into meat paste, one could still see its original appearance.
Frowning, Fifteen suddenly swung his sword.
The sound of a mosquito that had been magnified several times suddenly rang in his ears. Lee Yang felt his bones go numb when he heard it.
"Hurry up and put out the light." Fifteen said loudly and threw out the oil lamp in his hand.
Lee Yang didn't know what was going on, but he still threw out the oil lamp in his hand.
The moment he threw it out, Lee Yang saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.
The surroundings were full of bugs, the kind that he killed. There were at least thousands of them densely woven into a net.
Fifteen whispered into Lee Yang's ear, "This is the Blood Worm."
"What is it?" Lee Yang asked.
"I can't explain it to you in a few words." Fifteen said.
"Hey, you can't say half of what you want to say. At least it's fine now. Tell me, what's wrong?" Lee Yang said unhappily.
Fifteen thought about it and suddenly felt that what Lee Yang said made sense.
"Fu Xi loudly said that when he is fighting against a tribe, he will not be able to attack for a long time. After that, Lord Shennong gave him this thing, the Blood Worm. The Blood Worm was born with a bloodthirsty nature, and it especially liked the existence of warmth and light. As long as one was targeted by the Blood Worm, it would only take one day. It would be able to absorb all the blood in one's body. If there were more than ten Blood Worms on one's body, then it would only take half a day. If there were more than a hundred of them, it would only take him an hour.
The Blood Worm's rate of reproduction was very fast. They had almost no natural enemies. Because this was a creature that Shennong had personally nurtured. Later on, Great God Fu Xi conquered that tribe, but there was not a single living person left in the entire tribe. Lord Shennong felt that this bug was too cruel and should not be left in this world. So he took the initiative to ask for the Blood Worm back. Then, he destroyed it.
However, he didn't expect that Lord Fu Xi would leave behind a few mother insects. The Blood Worm could reproduce by itself. As long as the mother insect was around, it could reproduce without limit. Later on, there were a few more incidents of the Blood Worm. Shennong was very dissatisfied with Fu Xi's attitude towards him. Let's end our friendship here."
Lee Yang widened his eyes and said, "Is this how the two of them cut off ties? That's not how it is written in the books. "
Fifteen shook his head and said, "Master Shennong and Fu Xi have a long history of conflicts. In fact, there are many conflicts between the three emperors. Nuwa is compassionate and has a loving nature. She doesn't like the world full of conflicts, but Old Man Fu Xi likes to start wars. That was why the conflict between Nuwa and Fu Xi was the greatest. As for Lord Shennong, he was the master of all beasts. He liked flowers, birds, fish, and beasts. But if humans wanted to survive, they had to eat these things. Thus, there were many contradictions between him and Nuwa. In addition to Fu Xi's frequent wars, whether it was humans or beasts... They've all suffered great damage. Lord Shennong and Lady Nuwa are the same on this point. "
Lee Yang pursed his lips. The secrets of these ancient gods were truly shocking. It was much more interesting than listening to a book.
"Then what should we do now?" Lee Yang asked.
"I don't know either." Fifteen said, "I've only read about the Blood Worm in some ancient books in Watershed City. After Old Man Fu Xi moved the palace to the sky, I thought the Blood Worm was taken away by him, but I didn't expect there to be more in this place. "
"Tell me what to do, dear." Lee Yang said helplessly, "I feel that the Blood Worm is getting closer and closer to us."
Fifteen said, "Charge over."
"It's so dark. What if we run over and get separated?" Lee Yang rejected this suggestion.
Fifteen said, "This is the only way I can think of. The Blood Worm can break through the protective shield. I also don't know how far ahead is. On the count of three, we'll charge out at the same time. You just follow behind me and listen to my footsteps."
This was also a solution that couldn't be helped. Lee Yang nodded and agreed.
"Let's go." After Fifteen's voice faded, the two of them activated the protective shield at the same time and ran forward.
The next few minutes could be said to be the most exciting few minutes in Lee Yang's life.
He saw the Blood Worm covering the sky and covering the earth attacking his protective shield like a moth darting into the flame. When it collided with the protective shield, there was even a clanging sound. Moreover, he could clearly see the cracks on the protective shield. Lee Yang's devil Qi couldn't be used, and the Heaven Astral Genuine Qi wouldn't be able to hold on for too long. He looked at the huge crack on his shield, but it was already too late to make up for it.
0
Seven or eight Blood Worm broke through the protective shield at the cost of their lives. Then, hundreds and thousands of Blood Worms rushed over and instantly wrapped around Lee Yang.
Lee Yang couldn't even open his mouth to speak, because if he opened his mouth, the Blood Worm would drill into his mouth.
Apart from that, these Blood Worms were also drilling into his ears and nostrils. In just an instant, Lee Yang felt as if his entire body was covered with Blood Worm. They used their mouths to tear open Lee Yang's skin. They began to crazily drink blood.
Blood kept flowing out of his body. Lee Yang's running speed was getting slower and slower. He wanted to take out the Forgotten Sword, and even thought of killing himself.
But now, he didn't have any strength left. He could only make sounds with his throat.
Fifteen, who was running in front, turned around and ran back. The slash was like a silver needle. All the Blood Worm on his face were stabbed to death on the spot. However, the speed at which he attacked was completely incomparable to the speed at which the Blood Worm attacked. He had just killed a bunch of them. Immediately, another batch of them rushed up to him.
Fifteen was also anxious. He was too lazy to kill them, so he carried Lee Yang on his back and ran forward.
Lee Yang's body quickly dried up, but Fifteen felt that his weight was getting heavier and heavier.
This was because the Blood Worm on Lee Yang's body was increasing, and it had absorbed all of Lee Yang's blood.
Blood Worm also appeared on Fifteen's body, but as long as the Blood Worm tasted his blood, it would immediately kill him.
Actually, Fifteen himself didn't know why this kind of situation would occur. He felt that he was a normal person. But now, all of his actions let him know that he wasn't a normal person.
His blood was poisonous.
Furthermore, it was extremely toxic.
Thinking about it, how powerful was the blood that could poison the Blood Worm that Lord Shennong cultivated to death?
Fortunately, at this moment, a light appeared in front of them. Fifteen rushed out with the fastest speed possible. When the sunlight shone on the Blood Worm, these terrifying fellows suddenly began to smoke. Then, with the fastest speed, they dried up and turned into dried shells.
Fifteen hurriedly placed Lee Yang on the ground. He grabbed Lee Yang's feet with both hands and turned him around. He shook Lee Yang a few times.
The Blood Worm on his body fell down one after another, revealing a face that was full of holes.
Lee Yang's face had been torn apart by the Blood Worm. The clothes on his body had been torn into pieces. Only a few strips of cloth were wrapped around his body.
What was even more terrifying was that Lee Yang was so thin that he looked like a dried corpse.
Fifteen slowly put Lee Yang down, and his expression became serious.
He also didn't know what to do.
Lee Yang was dead.
The plan of the Great Priestess could no longer be carried on. This time, he brought Lee Yang here. He wanted to find an existence that could fuse with the true qi and devil Qi in his body, but now, Lee Yang was dead.
He had died on his back.
He wondered what the Great Priestess would think once it found out.
Fifteen suddenly felt that he should have died together with Lee Yang.
