Listening to the words of the city lord, Fengjiu did not speak, but glanced at the slightly bulging waist and then turned to check his head. After a long time, she withdrew her hand and stepped back.
"If I'm not mistaken, there should be a spirit-eating insect called Black and White Impermanence lurking in his body. He has at most seven days to live."
She spoke slowly as she walked out.
The city lord could not hide his shock when he heard this. He was stunned for a moment, glanced at the father of the **, asked the maid beside him to help him put on his clothes, and hurriedly followed Fengjiu to the outer room.
"Master Feng is saying that there are bugs in my father's body? How is this possible?" How can bugs lurk in the body? Moreover, immortal cultivators can see inside their bodies. If there are bugs in the body, how could his father not know
"How is it impossible? Doesn't your father have one male and one female in his body?"
Hearing this, the city lord opened his mouth in disbelief. Two? One male and one female? This, this, this...
Because of the shock in his heart and the words, he didn't know what to say for a long time, he just felt it was so incredible. However, at this moment, he saw the young man in red reaching into his sleeves and soon took out a thick book.
He watched him flipping through the pages and finally pushed the book in front of him.
"Look, it's this kind of insect. At first, it's only as thin as a hair, and its body is only this long. It's black and white, and it gradually grows bigger as it lurks in the human body to absorb spiritual energy and blood. What's more, the most bizarre thing about this kind of insect is that male and female are born together. Your father is using his own body to raise the insect. It would be strange if he didn't die."
"You mean, this, this was raised by my father himself?" he asked with his eyes wide open in surprise.
"Yes, your father raised them himself. He used his body to feed the spirit-eating insects, and there was one on each side of his body. There is a legend about the spirit-eating insects: if you feed them with essence, energy and blood, they will be rare treasures. I guess your father probably raised them for this reason, but he was backfired. In a few days, he will probably really ascend to heaven."
Looking at the information recorded in the book on the table and listening to Fengjiu's words, he hurriedly walked into the inner room to check the left and right sides of his father's body. As Fengjiu said, there was a slightly bulging area on the side of his waist, which looked like a worm wriggling. He couldn't help but be startled.
He ran out in a hurry: "Master Feng, then, then can my father be saved? Please save my father!"
She rolled her eyes and said, "Why do you think this soul-eating insect is called the Black and White Impermanence? How can it be saved just because we want to? Moreover, this insect has grown so big now, how can it be easily eliminated?"
It is said that if the soul-eating insect is fed with one's own blood essence and fattened up, it can be forced out and refined into blood pills, which have the miraculous effect of bringing the dead back to life. However, this is only a legend, and it is fortunate that Old Man Duan dared to risk his own life to experiment.
Now, the bugs have grown fat, but he himself can't hold on and fell down. In her opinion, his behavior is simply a rhythm of seeking death because he thinks his life is too long. He is really troublesome.
"Is there no hope? Can my father just wait to die?" City Lord Duan staggered back, looking devastated.
