When another man at the same table heard this, he immediately became interested: "The tremor scared me so much that all the pots and pans in the house fell to the floor. Tell us what is going on!"
Qin Feng pretended to drink, but pricked up his ears and began to listen carefully.
And the sturdy man who was the first to speak also spoke slowly.
The man usually travels with caravans, loading and unloading goods. A few days ago, a wealthy businessman in Jinyang City gathered people and planned to sell some medicinal herbs in Qiyuan City.
The wealthy businessman saw that the man was strong, so he hired him with money.
Since he was escorted by the Demon Slayer Division, there were no accidents along the way. When the wealthy businessman arrived at Qiyuan City, he sold the herbs and made a lot of silver. He looked very happy.
After the transaction was completed, it was getting late. They stayed in Qiyuan City for one night and packed their bags and set off before dawn this morning.
And the weird things started from here.
The man looked a little scared, but he still had the courage to say: "On the way back, we were obviously walking on a mountain road, but the mountain forest was quiet, and we couldn't hear a single sound of birds or animals.
And the scariest thing is the bugs!"
"Insects?" The other two people joked: "Looking at how big and thick you are, you are actually afraid of insects?"
"You know what the hell! Those were not just a few bugs, but a mountain full of bugs, with colorful colors, different sizes, and ferocious looks. I even saw a centipede as thick as a tree!" the man trembled.
At this point, the other two people looked at each other, stopped laughing, and swallowed their saliva and said: "How can you come back alive after encountering such a battle?"
"Who says it's not the case? Now that I think about it, I feel like I'm destined to be lucky.
The Lord of the Demon Slayer Division who was accompanying us at that time had a solemn face and was on guard. The mountain of insects was separated from us by a mountain road, only three feet away!
As long as they turn a corner, all of us will die!
The strange thing is that those bugs, as if they didn't see us, headed straight towards Qi Yuancheng.
All of us were so scared that we didn't move until all the bugs left, and then we breathed a sigh of relief."
"Quickly, drink some wine to strengthen your courage. If you survive this catastrophe, you will be lucky in the future! But I listened for a long time, and you still haven't said what's going on?" asked the man at the same table.
The strong man took a sip of wine, picked up a mouthful of vegetables from the hot pot, chewed it a few times and said again: "I was just about to say it now!
After such an incident, everyone was frightened. Lord Demon Slayer asked us to leave useless things behind and speed up our return.
Although the wealthy businessman was reluctant to give up, he agreed for the sake of his own life.
We rushed to Jinyang City non-stop, and just before noon, we felt the ground shaking. At that time, I was so scared that I collapsed on the ground and looked to the north. What do you think I saw?"
The other two people were scratching their heads and scratching their heads anxiously: "Come on, tell me, what kind of riddle are you trying to play!"
"It's a centipede." The strong man trembled and gritted his teeth and said, "It's a huge centipede that looks like it can reach the sky when it stands up!
It opened its mouth, and its two fangs were as big as a city gate! It swooped down, trying to break through the gate of Qiyuan City.
But outside Qiyuan City, a golden cover suddenly lit up, blocking the centipede, and the shaking feeling of the ground was caused by the impact!"
When the two heard this, they took a deep breath.
Qin Feng thought thoughtfully, Qi Yuancheng is one of the thirty-two celestial cities in Daqian, and all celestial cities have several common characteristics.
First, there is a barrier guarding the outside of the city, making it difficult for ordinary monsters and monsters to enter the city.
Secondly, Tiancheng's government structure is sound, it has its own army, and its force is strong. Sizheng, who guards Tiancheng, must be at least level four!
Thirdly, the reason why each Celestial City has such a strong protective power is to protect the Dragon-Suppressing Monument that can guard luck.
The golden cover that the man mentioned must be the barrier of Qi Yuancheng, and the two people from the Demon Slayer Division that he saw today are most likely from Qi Yuancheng. Qin Feng took another sip of wine, feeling heavy.
Even the Celestial City of Daqian is not absolutely safe. This is the current situation of this world.
The strong man was still recalling: "The giant centipede hit him for ten breaths, and the golden shield cracked a huge hole.
At that moment, a red light shot out from Qi Yuan City, turning into a huge spear shadow in mid-air, knocking back the giant centipede.
Then, as the dazzling white light filled the sky, Qi Yuancheng seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and nothing could be seen."
Is it a barrier or a strange magical power?
It is impossible for Qi Yuancheng to disappear, it must have been hidden by some means!
Qin Feng frowned. First, countless insects marched, then a giant centipede broke the barrier, and finally he used strange means to cover it up. This was obviously a well-thought-out plan.
Suddenly, the sound of vomiting sounded in my ears.
Qin Feng interrupted his thinking and looked away, only to see that the strong man who had been chatting just now was pale, clutching his chest and looking in pain.
The diners on the first floor were shocked, and the two people at the same table were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
When Qin Feng saw this symptom, he immediately thought of something. He opened his eyes and looked into the man's body. He really saw the heart-eating Gu attached to the heart!
"Miss Lan, go to the kitchen and bring ice cubes!"
"OK."
"Young Master, what's going on here?" Peng Qing walked up to him and was at a loss when he saw the man's painful appearance.
Qin Feng immediately ordered: "Clear this table and have someone push him onto the table."
Peng Qing immediately called the waiter in the restaurant to do as he was told, but the burly man's companion didn't know the situation and hurriedly stopped him and shouted: "What are you going to do!"
"I am Doctor Qin from Bao Medical Hall. If you still want to save him, get out of my way!" Qin Feng shouted.
After hearing the words doctor Qin, the two men looked at each other and slowly backed away.
In recent days, Qin Feng's name has spread throughout the streets and alleys of Jinyang City, and everyone is talking about it. Naturally, these two people have also heard of it.
Not long after, the ice cubes were in place, the Heart-Eating Gu caught the cold, its movements slowed down, and the man's pain was reduced a lot.
Qin Feng grabbed a handful of chopsticks and stuffed them into the man's mouth: "There may be some pain next, so you have to endure it."
Hearing this, the man nodded with difficulty.
Qin Feng exhaled, and the white inches of his fingertips appeared, turning into narrow and sharp blades. Due to his previous experience, he could take out the Heart-Eating Gu in one go.
In just a few breaths, Qin Feng used a white needle to pick out the strange Heart-Eating Gu, and dropped it into the basin containing the hot pot soup base. Then it turned into a pool of black blood and disappeared completely.
Qin Feng sent Miss Lan to grab medicinal materials from the Treasure Medical Hall, boiled it into a bowl of cold soup, and fed it to the man. The man's breathing stabilized and some color returned to his face.
Seeing this, everyone clapped their hands and praised Qin Feng's miraculous medical skills.
But there was no trace of joy on Qin Feng's face. According to what the man said before, they would not pass by the Chuanming River on their way back, so how could he be infected with the Heart-Eating Gu?
You know, strange insects like the Heart-Eating Gu are not something that can be seen everywhere!
After thinking about it, there is only one possibility——
The Heart-Eating Gu that Master Qian was infected with in the Chuanming River came from the Qiyuan River, and a large amount of the Heart-Eating Gu had already flowed into Qiyuan City from the Qiyuan River!
