The country of the underground caves is dark and dark, and the gloomy wind blows by, like a nine-secluded forest palace. Li Muye followed Pi Rixiu as he walked among them, and he suddenly had the illusion that he had been living in two lifetimes, and this life was just a curtain of dreams.
With a greedy look on his face, Pi Rixiu carefully looked at the surrounding scene, and said excitedly as he walked: "You can't be wrong, this place is the Nankefu land that was damaged by the rat plague two thousand years ago, as mentioned by my teacher. I didn’t expect that it would actually be occupied by these rats. This Rat Kingdom was not built under the leadership of Sun Defu, but a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation by the disciples of the Rat Kingdom. It has been passed down for two thousand years, and this time we are able to find a treasure.”
His eyes flashed with greed and fanaticism, and he kept talking: "Back then, the founder of the five earth masters handed down five volumes of the Chong Jing to each of his five disciples. The first one was the Ribu Chong Jing, which said The first part is about how to identify, catch and raise insects under the sun, starting with human insects; the second part is the Lunar Insect Classic, which talks about lunar insects, ground insects, night insects and worms. The so-called worms are a kind of insect. Giant mosquitoes that live in the underground space and carry extremely pathogenic bacteria; the third part is the Feather Insect Classic, which talks about the feathered insects in the world; the fourth part is the Linbu Insect Classic, which talks about snakes, fish, amphibians and reptiles The most inferior one is the rat tribe, which was passed down to a disciple with the least talent and the poorest background. This man is called Baili Anguo. This life is a deer-headed rat-eyed man with an extremely unpleasant temperament. He was taken in by the ancestor just because he was particularly good at serving people. He was under the disciples, so I passed on the Rat Worm Sutra to him."
Li Muye said: "The first two books are broad, profound and all-encompassing, and the Lunar Insect Scripture is more in line with the orthodox path of our sect. The world under the sun belongs to the human race, and the world under the moonlight belongs to the insect race and all the beasts. The teacher is right, It is true that among the five divisions of the Earth Masters, the Moon Division should be the only orthodox one."
"Yes, that's very well said." Pi Rixiu nodded with satisfaction and said: "But what I want to tell you now is a strange incident that has been circulated within the five divisions of the Earth Master Sect for two thousand years. It is about the existence of Baili Anguo. The Land of Zhenze Five Lakes used the thaumaturgy in the Rat Book of Insects to build a strange land of the Rat Kingdom, called Nanke Fu Land. After the death of the Patriarch, only Lao Wubaili Anguo among the five disciples was willing to settle down after the Patriarch. He went to great lengths to bury the Patriarch in the blessed place he designated."
Li Muye knew that he had something else to say, so he listened carefully and said, "Is this right here?"
Pi Rixiu hummed and continued: "Yes, this is the place. It was called Nankefu Land in the past. At that time, the Mouse Mountain and Zhenze Mountains were still connected together. Baili Anguo opened an inn here, and he opened the inn here. It was built at the entrance of the Shushan Cave, buried deep with thick soil, and an ancient locust tree was moved to cover people's eyes and ears. That tree was called Nanke Country. Deep in the cave under the tree, he used the thaumaturgy of the Rat and Insect Scriptures to steal the world. With the treasure, a capital city with gorgeous pavilions and majestic pavilions was built to bury the ancestor."
Li Muye said: "This person does have a good heart."
Pi Rixiu said: "If he hadn't had the intention, he wouldn't have been able to learn the top five magic arts!"
Li Muye was surprised: "Isn't it true that our Yue Department is number one?"
Pi Rixiu said: "The Yue Department is the orthodox version of the Worm Scripture. To say that it is actually the most powerful, the Rat Department is the most powerful. It controls rats from stealing. There is no treasure in the world that cannot be taken. The number of rat soldiers and rat generals is far greater than that of any dynasty in history. In the kingdom, in this underground world, you live in fine clothing and fine food, and live an imperial life, and the cost of enjoyment may not be inferior to that of the emperor on earth."
Li Muye said: "After all, it still lacks some fun."
Pi Rixiu said: "That's how you see it from the perspective of a worldly person. If you see it from the perspective of a Jianghu person, the life of the King of the Rat Kingdom is truly a beautiful and carefree life. The endless wealth that is easily available is not expensive. , rare delicacies and delicacies that are rare in the world are at your fingertips, and as long as you are willing to spend money, you can find the most beautiful women in the world, but tell me, at this point in your life, what more do you want?"
Li Muye praised: "From what the teacher said, this Nanke Mouse Country is really a wonderful and blessed place."
Pi Rixiu said: "More than that, the most wonderful thing about this place is the beautiful scenery and beautiful water. The hundreds of veins on the earth gather vitality and condense the stalactites and caves in the sky. It is an excellent treasure place for health and safety. In this life, no matter how hard you try to live, , in the final analysis, isn’t it just to live a few more years and enjoy more glory and wealth? This Nankefu land was such a wonderful place back then, if it hadn’t been for a major earthquake that almost turned the mountains and rivers upside down, and the feng shui was broken. With this pattern, we might be able to achieve the foundation of the immortal legendary overlord.”
"There seems to be the sound of machinery running over there." Li Muye pointed to the area bathed in dim light in the distance and said, "I didn't expect this place to be so modern."
Pi Rixiu said: "No matter how many changes there are, there is no way to cover up the refreshing atmosphere of these stalactites. Only Nankefu Land had such a atmosphere back then."
The two of them stood on the back of the giant insect, approaching the dimly lit place slowly and slowly, and finally came close.
Li Muye looked up and saw a white tower building. Although it was not grand and magnificent, it still had a sense of solemnity and law. There are four big characters written on the city gate, which is indeed Nanke Fuguo. A group of rats gathered on the tower, each holding a nut or a fat plant root and munching on it. Each one had an abnormally fat head and a different posture, staggering here and there. It seems to turn a blind eye to outside intruders.
"Isn't he already alive?" Li Muye couldn't help but said in surprise when he saw this scene.
Pi Rixiu said: "It's not that they have become spirits, but that the education you received before was wrong and you underestimated the intelligence of animals. These rats are also a highly socialized group. As long as they are a socialized group, they are inevitable. There is a tendency for people to cheat and cheat."
Li Muye nodded and said, "It makes sense. As the saying goes, it's hard to find a full meal when a wolf walks in a proper way. Those who follow the rules and flatter the horses often get enough to eat without worry. Those who follow the rules may not necessarily be full if they hunt hard, but those who don't follow the rules can be full all day long. , Under such circumstances, who would be willing to be vigilant and brave? This underground country has been comfortable for a long time, and all species will inevitably become slack."
Pi Rixiu said with a smile: "The slacker they are, the better it will be for you and me, master and disciple. Sun Defu's good days are coming to an end soon."
As soon as they finished speaking, a woman's shrill scream suddenly came from the city, followed by the sound of a child crying. The cry was extremely loud, setting off the woman's scream, which made people shudder in this deep underground world.
Li Muye was surprised: "How come there are women screaming and children crying?"
Pi Rixiu frowned and said in a deep voice: "There is only one possibility, the woman is giving birth!"
Li Muye said: "What kind of woman would be brought to this hellish place to give birth to a child?"
Pi Rixiu said: "There is no point in guessing. Just go and take a look and you will know."
The two of them jointly urged the earth insect to move forward, and the city gate was closed. The earth insect used four large shovel-like bone teeth to chew the door to pieces, passed through the door, and went straight to the source of the sound. Along the way, you can see ancient buildings and abandoned houses from time to time, all in the style of the Qin and Han Dynasties. Along the way, the rats walked through the streets and markets like their masters. It was an advantage for the Insect God. One roll of his tongue was a string of rat meat, and he was very happy to eat it.
The underground space was huge and endless. The giant insect walked about 500 meters in the shallow water. A relatively tall building appeared in front of him. It vaguely looked like a tower. The biggest difference was that there was actually a hanging hanging on this tower. There were seven floors in total, and the screams and cries came from the top floor.
Li Muye heard it more clearly and couldn't help but wonder: "There are really people who are raising children and living a small life here?"
Pi Rixiu's face suddenly turned very ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "That's not for the purpose of carrying on the family line, but for the purpose of raising Shu Shuai."
"What do you mean?" Li Muye asked in surprise.
"You will find out if you come with me and take a look." Pi Rixiu said and motioned for the giant insect to lower its head. He slid down and led Brother Ono to go down the tower. He went straight to the eight pools around the tower and went down. Pointing his finger, he said: "If you look carefully, you will understand everything."
Li Mu had some guesses in his mind, but he just couldn't confirm it yet. He followed his fingers and looked at them. His eyebrows suddenly exploded with anger. At the same time, he felt a chill from head to toe. He took a deep breath and stared at the various sizes of fish in the pool. The human skeleton asked: "How did these women and children die?"
Pi Rixiu said: "The strongest beast soldier in the Rat Kingdom is called Shu Shuai. The elixir book Sun Delu gave me mentioned a secret recipe for raising Shu Shuai. The strange beasts in the world have different talents. Among them, wisdom is the most valuable, and raising animals is like insects. , using insects as soldiers is actually a method of artificial intervention that leads to the evolution of species. In this process, the top priority to improve is the intelligence of insect soldiers, followed by physical strength. Raising a rat commander is a method of cultivating the highest combat power in the rat country. The recipe.”
Li Muye understood: "You mean using women and children to make food for rats?"
Pi Rixiu said: "The original recipe was to use dogs, monkeys and dolphins, but the success rate was not guaranteed. In the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, someone came up with a new recipe, which was to use humans to feed Rat Shuai, which can greatly increase the success rate."
Li Muye suddenly thought of his daughter Anqi and his son, and couldn't help but cursed: "I'm fucking the world of my ancestors!"
Pi Rixiu said: "The power of this Rat Commander is not comparable to that of the Rat General and the Rat Divine Weapon. If it is really trained by Old Monster Sun, we will probably lose everything in this trip. Disciple, In my opinion, it is best for us to withdraw."
I recommend this reading app that I am using recently. It has many book sources, complete books, and is updated quickly!
At this time, Li Muye suddenly heard an extremely subtle voice, vaguely human voice, a woman calling for help. But the voice was so weak that it was almost the voice of the heart. Yipi Rixiu's Taoxing would never be able to hear it, but Brother Xiaoye was very sure that the sound was real.
Pi Rixiu said: "Stop thinking about it and come with me quickly. This Shuai's ability is not inferior to that of Yuqi, but his wisdom is even better. He is invincible in this extreme territory of the Rat Country, even Xuanchen Bai The Wuxia people are definitely not their enemies even if they come in person, so let’s go ahead with the Thirty-Six Strategies.”
Li Mu despised him in his ambition. This guy's bravery and courage were not as good as that of a rat, and he wasted his reputation as a great alchemist on the literary list. Listening to his remarks, you can tell that he is just a toad at the bottom of a well in terms of cultivation. It is impossible to imagine the level of people like Bai Wuxia and Xuan Chen. Other people, Brother Xiao Ye, didn't know what was going on, but Bai Wuxia knew it best. If Yun Zhongzi had been replaced by Bai Wuxia that day, this tabby cat-like evil insect would really be just a tabby cat.
"Don't you think it's a little late to leave at this time?" A condescending voice suddenly said. (End of chapter)
