Chapter 275 Yin Chi

The air in the dim fish hold was extremely filthy, not to mention the fishy smell, and now it was a mess.

Shunzi leaned against a corner and curled up to sleep, as if he had experienced something terrible. He was obviously a young man in his prime, but at this moment he looked extremely miserable and pitiful.

There were a lot of bloodstains on the ground, and there were many bottles and jars placed everywhere. It can be seen that those bottles and jars were cups for the crew to drink water, but now they were filled with blood.

Lao Bai had his back to us and was fiddling with these bottles and jars.

All this looked shocking, like a place where some evil sorcerers cultivated evil sorcerers.

Most of the crew members were still sleeping on the deck outside in the sea breeze. Only the old one-eyed man and the man with a broken leg came in with us. After seeing this scene, both of them were stunned.

"You...what did you do?"

The one-legged man widened his eyes and trembled, "What did you do? Where's Shunzi? You killed Shunzi!!"

"What are you arguing about?"

Lao Bai looked back. He hadn't seen him all night. His image had changed drastically. He looked haggard, with two big dark circles under his eyes, and bloodshot eyes. He looked like a crazy scientist, like a vampire. When he looked at him, the one-legged man subconsciously took a step back.

Lao Bai ignored him, his eyes fell on us, and he was immediately overjoyed and came up to pull me.

I noticed that his hands were full of dried blood. I looked at Shunzi with some concern and couldn't help but ask him in a low voice, did you really kill Shunzi?

"What are you thinking about!"

Lao Bai glared at me and said unhappily: "I am not a kite, am I the kind of person who kills innocent people? This kid is fine. I have solved the problem with him. He is just asleep now and will wake up soon."

Is it cured?

Instead of just suppressing the parasite with hot compress like the old one-eyed man?

I asked again uncertainly. After getting Lao Bai's affirmative answer, I couldn't help but look him up and down, thinking that this grandson is really a genius in Gu Shu, but he has been delayed for decades by all kinds of strange and lewd skills.

But think about it, people are afraid of insects. This is the fear written in the genes of ancient humans, and it has been inherited to the present. Seeing densely packed and wriggling insects, I think there are probably few people who will not tremble. But Lao Bai's grandson is an exception. He said that except when he was controlled by the Gu King to eat insects, he felt close to centipedes and scorpions at other times. What else is this if not talent? !

"Come on, stop asking questions, I'll show you something good!!"

Lao Bai fell into a strange frenzy again, as if he didn't see my master and the others following behind him. He pulled me down and started to search through the bottles and jars on the ground.

I noticed that these bottles and jars were full of blood, but it was not sticky. It should have been diluted with water. At the same time, there were many wounds on Lao Bai's arms. He should have used his own blood.

Lao Bai picked and chose, and finally found a can and handed it to me.

I didn't see what was different about this bottle. Lao Bai said mysteriously that I would know later, and then flicked the can with his fingers.

A small mark gradually emerged where he flicked, probably a thumbprint, looming.

I couldn't see clearly, so I moved closer. Lao Bai turned on the flashlight with a click. The light penetrated the can, making the blood inside transparent. The small mark instantly became clear. It was a human face, and it was extremely ferocious. The can screamed "Wow" and rushed towards me, then hit the wall and bounced back. I was also shocked by this sudden change. My hands trembled and I almost threw the can out. Fortunately, Lao Bai was quick and caught it in time, and then he laughed heartlessly on the side.

Needless to say, this grandson definitely did it on purpose.

After a brief shock, I also became interested. At that moment, I clearly saw that there was a long black shadow behind the human face, so I picked up the flashlight and shone it on the can to observe it carefully.

I saw a large worm that was more than ten centimeters long, swimming non-stop. It seemed to dislike light, and it was very violent when exposed to strong light, and kept hitting the bottle wall.

At first glance, this thing is very similar to a thing called Bobbitt worm in the sea. Its body is thin and flat, blue-black, and very similar to a centipede. There are countless legs and feet on both sides of its body. Those legs and feet are very thin, like fluff, but it has a human face, which is extremely weird and creepy!

While observing this thing, I asked Lao Bai: "Is this the kind of parasite in Shunzi's body?!"

"Normally, it's not this big, it's very small, so small that it can only be seen with a microscope."

Lao Bai smiled and said: "This is the king of those parasites. Gu breeders usually call this thing-Yin Chi."

"Yin Chi? What is this?"

Zhang Xinya asked curiously: "Is it a Gu worm?"

"A Gu worm that is not a Gu worm."

Lao Bai said: "The Gu King is psychic. When the Black Miao chieftain cultivated it, he instilled a lot of things into it. It was it that told me the name and gimmick of this thing.

Gu is artificially cultivated, but there are all kinds of wonders in the world. There are always some insects that are not Gu, but have magical abilities comparable to Gu, which can be regarded as a kind of strange insect.

Yin Chi is one of them. It is said that this thing lives in the sea trench ten thousand meters below, without seeing the light, absorbing the Yin Qi in the sea, and its lifestyle is similar to that of parasites...

Only the people of Xuanmen know about this kind of thing now, but there are also rumors that Yin Chi is not uncommon under the sea, but humans have only explored less than 5% of the sea area, and the exploration depth has never exceeded 7,000 meters. The deep sea below 10,000 meters is a completely unknown area, so the understanding of this kind of thing is almost zero!

A chieftain of Heimiao went to the beach by chance once and heard that local fishermen caught a strange fish. He went to buy the strange fish and peeled off a Yin Chi from its body. It seems that the strange fish floated up from the deep sea of ​​10,000 meters. Unfortunately, due to the pressure environment and other reasons, the strange fish died, but the Yin Chi survived. After careful research, he found that this kind of thing is very interesting. They themselves have no wisdom, but when they live in other things, they will be affected by the host and begin to constantly imitate the host, taking on many characteristics of the host, and there will only be one host in their lifetime. If they run to other creatures, they will try to control the other party!

The chieftain of the Black Miao thought that this thing was very promising. If it was cultivated properly, it might be able to cultivate a kind of vicious Gu that could obey him and control others. Unfortunately, after he got the Yin Chi, it was killed by him not long after! "

After saying this, Lao Bai knocked on his temple: "This thing is hidden in Shunzi's head. The King of Gu and I took great efforts to trick it out. It was Shunzi's fate that he should not die. Otherwise, after a few years, when it got tired of it, it would eat Shunzi's brain marrow and leave to find the next target. Who made Shunzi not its original host?"

Brother Yaozi asked: "In other words, the various abnormalities shown by this thing controlling Shunzi are the characteristics of its original host? ! "

Lao Bai nodded.

This coincides with what the old one-eyed man said.

However, the old one-eyed man was just a guess and suspicion, not so reliable, and now it is a hammer!

We looked at each other. When the old one-eyed man said it, he didn't think it was a big deal. Now that it has been verified, he is not at peace.

Could it be... related to the legendary mermaids?

Lao Bai didn't know about this. Seeing that we looked strange, he asked us what was wrong?

"Nothing."

Brother Yaozi shook his head: "You told us this because you wanted to tell us that the strange language that Shunzi said when he fell into madness was actually what the original host of Yin Chi often said."

Lao Bai nodded again: "Yes, but that's not a word, it's a song!"

After saying that, Lao Bai hummed "Ahhh" with a broken voice, like a pig being slaughtered!

"Stop!"

I raised my hands and begged for mercy: "Why are you still singing?! We just need to know the general meaning of the lyrics!"

Lao Bai glared at me and said unhappily: "How can you highlight the mood without singing?"

"Okay, then you sing."

I sighed: "But don't hum at the beginning, just sing the lyrics directly, let's be quick, it's been half the night, it's really tiring!"

Lao Bai started humming "ah ah ah" again, my master coughed lightly, and this grandson finally stopped, imitating the tone of Shunzi's screams, and sang a song without a clue.

"The homeland is gone, but the warriors are still here.

Time has passed, but the sacred is eternal.

Three feet of loess, ten thousand feet of deep sea.

The dusty door will eventually open.

The ancient glory shines on the earth.

Give everything you have, and stay with me.

The light of the kingdom of God, shines on you forever.

..."

This is the general meaning of the lyrics. Lao Bai feels that his deciphering is relatively successful, at least 80% is reliable.

"Interesting..."

My master fell into silence after hearing this, thought about it, and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that this 17th district hides a big story, not just the Penglai Mountain we are looking for..."
