Chapter 230: One thing brings down another thing

Views:

"Miyamoto Musashi became so obsessed with sword practice that in the end he forgot all the moves and only remembered one thing, which was to kill the opponent in front of him in the simplest and most effective way." Li Muye said: "In terms of killing skills, he I have reached the pinnacle, but the realm of martial arts may not be the highest." He also said: "The great way simplifies the complex. I don't have the talent of Senior Brother Gao, and I can't reach his height. I have to specialize in one technique, so I am the only one who is proficient in mixing. The art of poison can also create the most tempting delicacies."

Huo Ze said: "Little Japan's martial arts culture is not worth mentioning, but Miyamoto Musashi is indeed worthy of being a master of swordsmanship. If you compare his killing skills with your poison mixing skills and cooking skills, it seems that you are killing yourself." I’m very confident in my ability.”

Li Muye said: "Although our Japanese insect masters have been looking for human insects all their lives, if we encounter suitable insects, we will still catch them. In comparison, it is much more direct to kill people by raising insect soldiers than by mixing poisons. Therefore, If we want to kill someone, we don’t necessarily have to do it ourselves.”

Huo Ze said: "If you just want to kill people, there is no way more simple and effective than a sniper. This is the tragedy of martial arts practitioners in this era, but it is also an unavoidable fact. But sometimes, it is not suitable to send out snipers. , For example, if we want someone to die inexplicably, then we will need some means that can kill people invisibly."

Li Muye said: "The Insect and Earth Division is divided into two parts: the sun and the moon. The sun part focuses on collecting treasures, stealing incense and looking for human insects, while the moon part pays more attention to refining medicine and maintaining health, driving away insect soldiers, and is used to search for heaven and earth. Treasure, you can still rely on fighting at critical moments." After a pause, he added: "When it comes to means of killing, aside from the use of poison, the one that is least likely to be noticed is the mind-cutting technique practiced by Yuebu Chongdi Master. "

Huo Ze said: "I know this magic technique. It uses the hard skin of May Hsinchu to make thorns as thin as cicada wings. When used, it will penetrate the target's heart very quickly using a special technique, and it will immediately cut off the opponent's heart pulse. , the target will die in an instant, the deceased will hardly feel the pain, and it will be difficult to detect the damage afterwards."

Li Muye said: "I admire it. Brother Huo is indeed very knowledgeable. This is a secret in my family, but when I come to you, you can see it all."

Huo Ze said: "The successor of the Yuebu Chongdi Master has always been mysterious. As far as I know, there is a man named Pi Rixiu. Although he is not among the top ten in Jianghu Literary List, he is not inferior to Gao Yuelong in the use of thaumaturgy. It is true. His level can be called a grandmaster among the insect masters, do you know this person?"

He suddenly asked about Pi Rixiu, and Li Mu was secretly surprised. He was not sure whether Huo Ze was referring to it or asking accidentally. Without any hesitation, he replied: "Although the Sun and Moon are from the same sect, they are more hostile to each other than the enemies outside. Pi Rixiu is the enemy of our Sun and Insect Master. How could I not know this?" people."

Huo Ze raised his forehead slightly and seemed quite satisfied, and said: "This Pi Rixiu has now taken refuge with King Luojia of the Huang family in Nanyue. A while ago, a business in Evernight City was discussed with King Luojia in Nanyang. There were some conflicts, but the two sides failed to reach an agreement, and in the end people were killed. Not long ago, King Luojia sent Pi Rixiu to the north. This man was proficient in the art of repelling insects and controlling beasts. There is a kind of insect underground in the Mongolian plateau. When it was young, it was called Elephant worm, also known as the death worm by locals.”

Li Muye was not in a hurry to show off, and listened calmly and carefully.

"This kind of insect lives under the sand dunes of the Gobi Desert. The larvae are about 5 feet long, red in body, with dark spots on the body. The head and tail are spike-shaped, and the head organs are fuzzy. The appearance is very similar to the larvae that live in the intestines of cows. Bugs, so they are also called intestinal worms." Hozer continued: "Not only will this larvae spray deadly venom, but it can also emit strong current from its eyes to kill prey several feet away, until it reaches deeper underground when it matures. In life, your eyes will not have this ability until they have completely degenerated."

Li Muye said: "This kind of insect is considered an alien species among insects. In our insect earth master industry, the adult ones are called earth dragons. They are the king of insects underground. They are indeed very powerful, but they are not impossible to control."

Huo Ze looked happy and said: "In the next few days, there will be an event here in the city that never sleeps. Many good friends of sufficient importance will be invited from all over the world. I am worried that this Piri cultivator will come and cause trouble for us. The bugs coming out of the ground are causing harm to people, but with Brother Li, we don't have to worry anymore." Suddenly he asked: "Can you please tell me specifically how you plan to control this earth dragon?"

Li Muye said: "This is the secret of our sect. I will not tell others when asked. But Brother Huo is a special case. The ancients lectured on literature and martial arts, and sold goods to the emperor's house. Now that I have entered the city that never sleeps, the rest of my life and this skill will be It's entrusted to the Huo clan. It's rare for Brother Huo to treat his brothers as civil servants. Brothers should naturally treat each other honestly with their elder brother."

He added: "Everything in the world has its enemies. Although the earth dragon is powerful, it also has its nemesis. It is the king of the underground, but what it fears most is the golden eagle, the king of the sky. Just use the golden eagle feathers to burn ashes and mix it with strong liquor. Spreading it in the area we need to guard against can ensure that it does not dare to come and cause trouble. And if Brother Huo wants to catch one for fun, there is no way. This thing has the ability to travel through the earth's veins, but it is a complete Blind man, all actions are based on induction vibration. Just take an Andean eagle egg that is about to hatch and place it in a closed iron cage, and then make some movement, and the object will definitely be attracted to the cage."

"Brother Li, wait a minute." Huo Ze asked, "Why must we use Andean eagle eggs?"

Li Muye said: "This earth dragon is not only found in Mongolia. It travels all over the world along the earth's veins. It especially likes to move in areas with slightly higher altitudes and rich underground mine radiation sources. I have also seen earth dragons in South America. There is a huge Andean eagle in Argentina, which can easily live over a hundred years, and it is unusual to live for seventy or eighty years, so it is also called the Andean Condor."

"This kind of eagle is not recorded in the Insect Scripture, but it is also a rare celestial insect. It especially likes to eat scavengers and eats a lot. After eating a full meal, it likes to squat on the cliff and sit on the Buddha's seat. Therefore, it is also called the Buddha. The condor, on this day, reaching seventy is a hurdle. Before the beak is changed at the age of seventy, the back and back toes are deformed, making it unsuitable for hunting. It is not easy to kill. After the age of seventy, the beak will be changed and the toes will be changed. Looking for that steep On the cliff, they use their beaks to hit the rocks until they fall off completely, and then use the new beaks to pluck out their deformed hind toes. When the new hind toes grow out, they will no longer be deformed. At this time, they are almost covered with hair and bones. It's like replacing it all over again, it can be said to be a rebirth, like a phoenix rising from the fire."

"After rebirth, the Andean condor becomes murderous and begins to like to capture living animals for food. It can live for at least a hundred years or even longer. Therefore, there is another saying that it is a Buddha at seventy and a demon at one hundred. Once it becomes true, The magic eagle will also re-grow in size until it reaches a hundred pounds, and it is considered a climate at this point. Ordinary viviparous animals are no longer in its diet. It only eats storks and cranes that fly in the sky, and it does not eat anything that is not a liger or a tiger that runs on the ground. South America has America. Lions and jaguars are both ground insects. Scale insects will not eat anything other than pythons and anacondas, and its favorite food is earth dragon larvae."

Li Muye kept talking. These strange stories were all heard from Pi Rixiu before. Brother Xiaoye was very talkative and talked about everything he knew. Huo Ze listened with great interest and couldn't help but interject: "Is that why this earth dragon is particularly interested in the eggs of the Andean eagle?"

"Brother Huo Shengming!" Li Muye said: "The biggest natural enemy of this earth dragon before it reaches adulthood is the Andean Magic Eagle, but after it reaches adulthood, it has nothing to fear. As long as it senses the breath of the Andean Eagle, this creature will definitely fight against all odds. Attack, once it is attracted by the eagle egg and enters the trap, it only needs to close the door in time and it will be captured naturally. "

Huo Ze nodded happily and said with a hum: "That's great. Sure enough, I'm not busy if I know how to do it, and I'm not busy if I'm busy. I was confused by Pi Rixiu's methods before, and I couldn't find any countermeasures at all. I'll listen to you." Saying this, it’s like the clouds clearing and the sun suddenly becomes clear.”

Not only is this man outstanding in appearance, but his demeanor and conversation are not crude and vulgar. He has a gentle smile and is very approachable. It was completely inconsistent with the fierce and cruel image of the King of Killers that Li Muye had heard before. From another perspective, this just shows that Huo Ze's state has reached the state of returning to nature. Such people are more terrifying than those demons with a fierce appearance.

Li Muye said humbly: "Brother Huo is so complimentary, I cannot bear it."

Huo Ze said: "I have learned about your resume through others before. Brother, you have just returned from South America. After listening to your lofty remarks just now, it is indeed true. However, I still have something unclear that I want to ask in person. Why did Brother Li go all the way to South America?”

Li Muye had already prepared this question and answered calmly: "To be honest, I went here for a treasure recorded in the sect's secretary."

"Oh?" Huo Ze was quite interested: "What kind of treasure, how could it be so far away in South America? Isn't it convenient for you to tell me?"

"Brother Huo is like a heavenly being. Even worldly things, no matter how precious they are, are not in your eyes. What inconvenience is there?" Li Muye said: "Speaking of this treasure, it does have some origins. The reason why it goes to South America is It’s so far away, and we have to start from a period of ancient history.”

"Appreciate further details!"

Li Muye said: "Brother Huo, have you ever heard of the rumors of Yin merchants immigrating in ancient times?"

"Please forgive me for being ignorant, brother, and having never heard of it."

Li Muye said: "The Shang Song in the Book of Songs records: Prime Ministers are fierce and fierce, and there are interceptions overseas. This refers to the eleventh generation of King Prime Minister of the Shang Dynasty, who expanded his territory to the Bohai Sea and established contact with overseas countries. The sages of the Yin and Shang dynasties came from the Bohai Sea. Following the ocean currents northward and crossing the Bering Strait, we arrived at the American continent. After the death of Zhou Xing and Shang, these people could not return to their homeland, so they called themselves the survivors of Anyang in the Yin Dynasty and have been wandering around the American continent for thousands of years to this day."

"Is there such a thing?" Huo Ze said in disbelief: "So, it means that it was my Chinese ancestors who first discovered the American continent?"

"This matter is recorded in great detail in the secrets passed down by our Worm Earth Master sect, and it can be said to be absolutely true." Li Muye said: "About twenty years ago, some archaeologists visited Olme in south-central Mexico. After careful screening of the 16 statues and 6 jade inscriptions excavated several feet underground at the La Venta Sacrificial Center of the Croat Cultural Site, some scholars believe that the inscriptions on the jade inscriptions were written in the same way as oracle bone inscriptions."

"Only part of it?" Huo Ze asked, "Does that mean this statement is still controversial?"

Li Muye said: "Academic disputes are not important. What our Worm Earth Masters are most concerned about is the ancient ethnic group called the Wind Clan represented by the sixteen statues. This ethnic group was active in Pengcheng, Xuzhou in ancient times. Yi, they have summarized and passed down some magic formulas to increase longevity, which I am most interested in."

Naturally, I heard these words from Pi Rixiu. Pi Rixiu knew that Huo Ze was experienced in the world and ordinary lies could not stand in front of him. Therefore, what Li Muye said are all genuine and authentic materials. Li Muye was eloquent and quoted from scriptures without hesitation when speaking. Huo Ze is also a man who knows a lot and remembers well. After hearing this, he was convinced and also very interested. He asked: "So, did Brother Li gain anything from this trip to South America?"
