Chapter 392: The Scourge of Wood Locusts


Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang watched Wu Yijiao turn the entire Lelin County upside down, and finally when the sick scholar put away his bow, jumped back to the roof and opened the fan to shake it gently, it was already a mess below.

The shopkeepers with hidden weapons staggered to the ground, and those who could still stand up gathered together, and among them was the old man with a cigarette pouch in the wood carving shop, and a wooden man in a wheelchair.

Zhanzhao frowned, "How is this person?"

Bai Yutang also felt abnormal, this is really a wooden man, but why can he move "Wood locusts."

At this time, Tianzun opened his mouth and asked Wu Yiwu, "Is this name called?"

Wu Yiwu nodded, "I thought it was dead, but I didn't expect it to exist, and it really happened to be a disaster for thousands of years." ” Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, "What is a wood locust?"

"It's a totem."

Wu Yiwu seemed to want to explain in detail, "It's a little troublesome now, I'll talk about it later." ” Zhan Zhao nodded, noticing that there were many more people nearby, gathered on the periphery, including Wu Cai.

"Those people are also in their group," Bai Yutang asked.

But everyone looked like ordinary people, not holding weapons, and there seemed to be no hostility, and the expressions on their faces were mostly horrified.

Wu Yijiao asked Zhanzhao, "Have you brought your group of demon orders?"

Zhan Zhao nodded, and asked with some surprise, "It's so serious to use the group demon order."

Wu Yiwu nodded, and Tianzun added on the side, "You have to eradicate one by one, otherwise they will multiply like locusts."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang couldn't figure out what "they" meant here, but since Wu Yiwu asked for it, Zhan Zhao raised his hand and threw the group of demon orders into the sky.

It's the first time Zhan Zhao has used this thing, not to mention, the moment he throws it into the sky, he is in a good mood To put it bluntly, the Demon Order is a ringing arrow for communication, however, compared to ordinary ringing arrows, this token calling on the demons is particularly shocking, especially after the air explodes, it brings out a bleak wind, like a ghost crying.

The old man seemed to realize that the situation was not good, and glanced at his subordinates, and the crowd immediately dispersed, aiming at the onlookers.

But as soon as they pounced on the periphery, they were dragged back by an internal force.

Tianzun stood upstairs, raised his sleeve armrests, and dragged everyone back with the palm of his palm.

"Don't even think about running, stay honest."

Tianzun smiled.

As he spoke, Bai Yutang suddenly noticed something unusual, and he whispered to Zhan Zhao, "Cat, have you noticed?"

” Zhan Zhao looked at him.

"Those guys have cracks on their faces."

Zhan Zhao was slightly stunned, and when he looked closely, he saw that the old man, including a few people who attacked them with hidden weapons, had some cracks on his body and face to varying degrees.

"Cracked" Zhanzhao felt that these people did not look like people, but like they were made of wood, and if they were cracked, there would be no bleeding.

"That little imp seems to have something to say."

Wu Yiwu pointed to Wu Cai, who had the courage to run closer.

Zhan Zhao jumped down, stretched out his hand to lift Wu Cai, and lifted him to the roof, "What's going on?"

Wu Cai sighed and said, "It's all my fault that caused this kind of disaster. ” Zhan Zhao was puzzled.

Wu Cai pointed to the wooden man in the wheelchair and said, "That's my father." ” Bai Yutang frowned slightly, that person was Wu Xian, but it looked like he was a wooden man completely, no wonder there was no breath just now, the feelings were not masters but puppets Wu Cai said, "My father has been plagued by injuries since he was paralyzed, his back was injured, his whole body was weak and aching every day, I asked a famous doctor to treat him to no avail until I met this person." ” As he spoke, he saw Wu Cai pointing to the old man holding the cigarette pouch.

The old man's eyes were gloomy at this time, and Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao noticed that his cheek had been injured just now, but the wound did not slip out of blood, but a slight crack appeared, as if it had been hit by a piece of wood.

"I posted a list in various places, and asked a famous doctor to treat my father's injury, and he took the list text."

Wu Cai said, "At first, he gave my father medicine, and my father's pain was relieved.

Later, his fame spread, and many people came to him for treatment, and he also settled down in Lelin County and opened a carpentry shop. ” Zhan Zhao sounded a little puzzled, this is not a Lang Zhong to open a medicine shop, why do you want to open a carpentry shop "Because once you are targeted by the Wood Locust Clan, the end will be to turn into wood."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang heard a voice behind them, and when they turned around, they saw a man in black falling, with one red eye, one black eye, and black messy hair Zhan Zhao was slightly surprised, it was Long Jiulian who came.

The Lord of the Yaksha Palace usually doesn't go out of the gate, and Zhanzhao hasn't seen him for a while, so he hurriedly greeted him and introduced Bai Yutang.

Wu Yiwu was curious, "Why are you here, you are not deep?"

The corners of Long Jiulian's mouth twitched, but he didn't bother with him, he glanced at the people below and frowned, "These insects are really dead but not stiff." ” As he spoke, Long Jiulian glanced at Tianzun.

Tianzun looked to the side, and his expression seemed like he couldn't see you, he couldn't see you Long Jiulian looked at the sky and reached out to pat him.

Tianzun touched the shoulder that was patted, glanced at him, and dragged Bai Yutang to him to block himself.

Long Jiulian looked very helpless, pursed his lips and didn't speak, and asked Wu Yiyi, "That's it."

"Looks like that's all."

Long Jiulian jumped down Another scuffle ensued.

The Yaksha King lived up to his name, and his martial arts were high and weird, and he made the group of wooden people roll all over the ground.

However, Bai Yutang saw some ways from his martial arts.

Bai Yutang asked Tianzun, "Master, he is the same door as you."

Tianzun pouted, and another voice came from behind him, "They are considered senior brothers." ” Bai Yutang turned around and saw that it was Yin Hou who spoke, and at this time, everyone in the surrounding Demon Palace had also arrived, and went down to help Long Jiulian arrest people.

"Senior brother" Bai Yutang was surprised and asked Tianzun, "Isn't that my senior uncle?"

"Don't call" Tianzun was dissatisfied.

Long Jiulian came up, and patted Bai Yutang on the shoulder with satisfaction, "Good" Tianzun squinted at him.

Long Jiulian stood at the other end with his arms crossed, obviously there was something wrong with the two.

At this time, everyone didn't have time to investigate, in the eyes of Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang, the relationship between the older generation was simply untidy and chaotic, and it was better not to wade into troubled waters.

In addition, the wooden people down there are almost caught.

Zhan Zhao felt that there were actually not many people, and after he could catch those wood locusts with the order of dispatching demons, he saw Wu Yiwu with hundreds of old people in the Demon Palace, divided into several teams, and began to carefully search every room.

Hong Jiuniang divided a lot of torches and gathered a large amount of wood to burn.

Originally, the people of Lelin County were gathered together, and several doctors from the Demon Palace examined their bodies.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were still in a state of confusion, so they had to take Wu Cai and Wang Lei to the side and ask them for details.

Wu Cai told Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, "After his father took the medicine given by that Lang Zhong, he began to gradually change into a wooden man, and even his temperament has changed a lot, not a human or a ghost." ” At this time, I saw Wang Lei coming out of Wufu with a few people, all of whom looked like ragged scholars.

After inquiry, I learned that it was the scholars who had been lost in the past few years who were all locked up in the dungeon, including Qiu Yi.

After inquiry, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter.

It turns out that the so-called "Wood Locust Clan" is a group of witch tribes with a history dating back thousands of years, or a medicine tribe.

"Wood locust" is a kind of medicine, also called wood poison, this poison is very peculiar, can make people's body "lignified".

Born on the battlefield of ancient times, the wood locust was originally only used for pain relief for external injuries, and it is an addictive drug invented by witch doctors.

With the continuous improvement of medicine, the wood locust has produced an amazing medicinal effect, long-term use, people will no longer be bothered by the pain, the body continues to grow wood growth, just like a tree, can be carved to modify their appearance, extremely weird.

The effect of wood locust poison varies from person to person, some people are not poisoned at all, and some people are poisoned, and the wood cannot be well integrated into the body, so they will become puppets like Wu Xian.

And the person who perfectly fuses the wood locust venom will be like the old man with the cigarette pouch and the rest of the people who attacked Bai Yutang, the appearance is similar to that of a normal person, but the facial features can be carved at will, the skin needs to be polished frequently, there is no blood, but it needs to be continuously taken medicine, this kind of person is a complete wooden royal family.

This is also the reason why there are so many carpenters and so many people making puppets in the entire Lelin County.

The Wood Locusts got their name because they were like locusts, they often went to a place as Langzhong, poisoned the people in the city by seeing a doctor, and then quietly occupied an entire town, turned the city into their own territory, and controlled the inhabitants of the city.

The poisoned inhabitants of the city will be controlled by them, because once the wood locust poison is hit, the human temperament will change greatly, and they will not regard themselves as Han Chinese or living people, but will be wholeheartedly loyal to the wood locust tribe.

Those ordinary people who could not be poisoned became their "slaves", responsible for the work to raise these locusts, and the basic ethnic class was formed.

Some of those who want to resist will be taken hostage, or simply killed.

The wood locust tribe was very prosperous in the troubled times of the year, but later it was wiped out in large quantities, because the harm was great, it spread unstoppably like locusts, so whether it was the rivers and lakes or the temples, the wood locusts were completely wiped out.

The wood locust jj process is quite complicated, which is inherited from generation to generation by some old nobles of the wood locust tribe, and most of them are extracted from wood.

Anyone who is poisoned by a wood locust can refine the locust poison from the wood scraped off their bodies, so it is necessary to burn it completely and leave nothing behind, otherwise it is easy to continue to spread.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, with the help of the elders of the Demon Palace, solved this unbelievable case, and rescued the arrested scholars at the same time.

None of the people, including Qiu Yi, died, and although they were imprisoned for a long time, their physical condition was fine.

Many people in Lelin County, who have been controlled or separated for many years, were finally saved, hugging and crying with joy, and the scene was very chaotic.

Zhan Zhao asked Qiu Yi about some things related to the case, and made up for the damaged dragon pattern scroll.

Qiu Yi said that a few of them had been investigating what kind of poison the people in Lelin County had been involved in, because the wood locusts were ruthless, and their relatives were controlled, and the official yamen was also controlled, so they were extra careful and did not dare to act rashly.

It was such a coincidence that Cai Jinbao, an old money fan, recruited someone to help repair the book, and they wanted to find some clues about this from the ancient books.

However, the people of the Wood Locust Tribe, who were around them, stared too closely, and they took some books back to investigate and were discovered, so Qiu Yi was arrested and imprisoned together with some of the people who investigated the Wood Locust Tribe.

As for Wu Cai's father, Wu Xian, because he was poisoned by the wood locust, he was no longer the virtuous official he was originally, and now he is as terrible as a puppeteer.

As for the hand-made paper with the inscription with danger markings, Zhan Zhao also investigated.

The scholar who copied this page said that he had not entered the valley of the Magic Mountain, let alone seen any fallen stone tablets, and that he had once seen this page in the study of the patriarch of the Wood Locust Clan, that is, the old man with a cigarette pouch, and it seemed that it was a letter he had just received.

The scholar thought that these strange symbols were related to the locust, so he wrote it down, and wrote a handwritten copy, but unfortunately he was arrested before he finished it.

This case is quite bizarre, Lord Bao wanted to interrogate the leader of the Wood Locust Clan, but all the captured Wood Emperor Clan committed suicide collectively, and the scene was very shocking.

"That's how I killed myself," Zhanzhao frowned.

Wu Yiwu told him, "Wood locusts were the pests that everyone shouted at back then, and in order to continue their tribe, they all lived a very low-key life, and everyone knew very little about this tribe. ” "But you can see it."

Yin Hou frowned slightly, "Most of the pure race people of the real Wood Emperor Clan have done a lot of kung fu, these are just small minions, now I don't know that the Wood Emperor Clan is almost extinct, these are just remnants of the remnants."

Or is it not extinct at all, the big bugs are hidden in the dark, and when they are discovered, they abandon the pawn to protect the car.

"The locusts seem to be looking for something all along."

Tianzun touched his chin and told Zhan Zhao and the others, "This tribe is quite strange, when they were the strongest, they could obviously gather together to occupy half of the Central Plains, but they were scattered all over the Central Plains, so they would be broken by each and almost extinct in the end." ” "Then what is their purpose?"

asked Bai Yutang.

All the old devils shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.

"They also have inscriptions, could they be looking for the Soul Suppression Bottle," Zhan Zhao asked.

"It's possible."

Tianzun and Yin Hou both nodded, wondering why they had been lurking near the Demon Palace for so long.

"Perhaps, they are spying on the Demon Palace."

Long Jiu Lian smiled and said, "Maybe people are afraid of you, so they want to wait for you to die and then make waves, but after so many years, they were finally exposed, but it's a pity." ” Tianzun glanced at Long Jiulian again, and Long Jiulian also glanced at him, exuding a subtle aura between each other.

This big case involving the entire Lelin County was solved with the help of the people in the Demon Palace, although the clues were broken, but it still saved many people, and it can be regarded as a complete merit.

Chinese New Year's Eve is approaching, and everyone on the Sky Island has also arrived at the Demon Palace, and the entire Demon Palace is very lively and noisy.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also put aside the case, and everyone passed a year easily.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, at the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Zhao Pu asked Ying Wei to call Zou Liang, and Lin Yehuo was also dragged over by Xiao Liangzi. probably didn't want to block everyone, so the two didn't make a fuss, they sat 108,000 miles apart, ate with their heads bored, and occasionally smiled and laughed, but they didn't communicate.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang decided to ignore all kinds of trivial matters and serious matters and have a good year, so everyone locked up the dragon pattern, and went crazy from Chinese New Year's Eve until the fifth day of the first month, and then gradually stopped.

After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the people who came to celebrate the New Year gradually dispersed.

The people of Trap Island said goodbye first because there was still business to be done on the island.

The people of the Yaksha Palace got the medicine, some of the mild illnesses have improved, and some of the serious illnesses need to be recuperated, and they also followed Long Jiulian to bid farewell to them and returned to the Yaksha Palace.

Long Miaomiao wanted to follow Zhanzhao and them to play, but she was still grabbed back to the Yaksha Palace by Long Jiulian's neck.

Yin Lanci and Lu Xue'er went back to Red Cherry Village and Yingxue Palace respectively, and Lu Tianhan also left with Lu Ling'er.

Everyone in the Demon Palace has passed the New Year, and they are busy in their own way, and some of them have gone out to play, and they have walked for more than half of them.

On the seventh day of the first month, Zou Liang and Ouyang Shaozheng took all the horses and returned to Black Wind City first.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Master Wusha and Lin Yehuo took Su Qing and Xiao Liang, who was inseparable from the little fourth son, and returned to Huofeng Hall first.

In a blink of an eye, the team that went out on patrol was left with the people of Kaifeng Mansion, Zhao Pu, and Pang Taishi.

On the ninth day of the lunar month, everyone decided to return to Kaifeng Mansion.

Lord Bao wanted to go back to the imperial city to return to Zhao Zhen first, and Zhao Zhen had also told them to go back to Kaifeng after the New Year, and it seemed that there was something to explain.

Taishi and Pang Yu miss their families and want to go back to see Concubine Pang and Xiangxiang.

So they set out back to the palace.

Of course, Tianzun and Yin Hou still followed the two idlers, and the little fourth son dragged the two alive and refused to let go, which means that if Yin Yin and Zunzun also left, he would cry his nose and cry until Kaifeng Mansion, so the second elder couldn't run away if he wanted to.

Before leaving, Feng Chuanfeng gave Zhanzhao a dossier and told him that it was about the area of the Ghost Sea in the Western Regions, and they had told him to check some things before, so that the two of them could take a look at it on the road. got into the carriage and hurried back, Gongsun and the others were idle, so they asked Zhao Pu, Zou Liang and Lin what was the problem between the night fire.

Zhao Pu sighed, "Bad fate." ” The author has something to say: The case is over, it is all a trivial foreshadowing case, and the next case is, the long case of restoring the integrity of the case, about the matter of Long Jiulian and the Yaksha Palace, it will not be explained until later, the illness of the people in the Yaksha Palace is related to the foreshadowing laid in the previous case, and then it will talk about the Ten Thousand Curse Palace, which is the source of many cases.

A tube asked if the dragon map was about to end, but in fact, it wasn't, and now it's almost half of the case, and there are a total of twenty cases in the plan
