The deceased did not show obvious signs of poisoning or injury. Therefore, the female police officer collected all the mysterious deaths in Uttar Pradesh and classified them according to key factors such as time, region, race, age, occupation, etc., and finally determined that these
Human death is related to an insect secretion.
Insects and trees are inseparable. The older the tree is, the more likely it is that there will be strange insects that cannot be recognized by humans. The death characteristics of the poisonous substances they secrete that cause harm to the human body have not yet been recorded, so even the most experienced coroner
, and the reason cannot be ascertained.
It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that the female police officer called me and informed me of two things: "The sudden death case is related to Celestial Silkworms - In addition, I have found Celestial Silkworms at the autopsy site. Celestial Silkworms are colorless, odorless and extremely transparent.
, entered the respiratory tracts of these deceased people, causing lung congestion and causing suffocation, but this process was very secretive and slow. By the time these people realized it, there was no cure. I am now certain that there is something in this ancient Bodhi tree.
Tiancan, let everyone be careful to avoid another tragedy."
At that time, I was standing in front of the Bodhi tree, holding a magnifying glass to observe the condition of the bark.
In the era before microscopes appeared, the celestial silkworm was a treasure that people in the world talked about because the celestial silkworm silk it spun was extremely flexible and could weave protective armor to resist the piercing of sharp objects. Therefore, it has long been regarded as
It is a rare treasure in the world. Anyone who owns it will treasure it for generations and will never tell it to anyone else.
"Where is the great wizard Qingshuang? With her metaphysical skills, she won't be attacked so easily, right?" I am very worried about the death of the great wizard Qingshuang. After all, she is an outstanding figure in Uttar Pradesh, and her ability to resist harm is far away.
Far more than others.
"We haven't done an autopsy yet. We're doing a X-ray scan. I'll let you know when there's any news. However, don't have too many illusions. The autopsy officer said that everyone is dead without exception." The female police officer's words were cold.
Broken all my expectations.
I walked around the Bodhi tree and observed the area from the roots to the upper five meters of the trunk.
If a Celestial Silkworm appears, it will definitely attack humans within this range.
Sky silk is extremely transparent, and without strong light, human eyes would not be able to detect it.
I ordered the workers to turn on the generator and use eight spotlights to aim at the tree trunk.
Although they don't know my intentions, they have received Kasha's instructions and must cooperate unconditionally no matter what request I make.
Soon, the spotlights were turned on, and the light enveloped the bodhi tree, and all the details of the bark were displayed under the magnifying glass.
In this case, I discovered hundreds of very short and thin light silver ox hair needles stuck on the tree trunk, only two centimeters in length, very hidden. If it were not for the help of strong light, I would not be able to see them at all.
I suddenly understood that the great wizard Qingshuang used the "exhaustive search" method when inspecting the Bodhi tree. She used ox-hair needles to drive away all insects in an attempt to reveal the true nature of the big tree, and then directly started the Emperor's Divine Saw.
, felling trees and dissecting people to find people.
Her method was so extreme that it was directly counterattacked.
I informed Kasha of this discovery, and she couldn't help sighing: "The great wizard is too radical in doing things, even more extreme than Mr. Qin. I originally thought that she would use ordinary means to cut down big trees, but it seems like she has very far-reaching ideas."
, not only dealing with big trees, but even trying to use one person's power to fight against the entire virgin forest of Uttar Pradesh is too... too risky. Mr. Qin said that there are unknown things everywhere in this big forest, and every time we go
The first step must be taken with sincerity and fear, and we must have a God-reverent attitude and must not be presumptuous."
At my request, Kasha sent a professional felling team to prune the bodhi tree in an orderly manner to ensure that the fruits of the great wizard Qingshuang's life were not wasted.
When Kasha and I met, I discovered that she had become much haggard overnight. Her originally neat appearance had now become messy, and her temples were also showing spots of white.
"Ye Kai, the great wizard Qingshuang left, and I felt like the sky was falling. I didn't sleep last night, thinking about it. Many of Mr. Qin's actions have offended the God of the Forest, and we will all be retaliated. So.
, I want to give up, give up completely... The Giant Wood Museum will also be closed, or changed hands, and we will discuss it with the board of directors. I have stayed here for so many years just for Mr. Qin. They have all left, and it is time for me to leave too."
Kasha's voice was extremely sad, and the flame of life was gone from her eyes, leaving only a faint light.
I have encountered the same situation countless times. After many people suffered heavy blows, they collapsed and could never stand up again. Only a few people went through hardships, but became more and more frustrated, and finally stood on the forefront of the trend again.
"Okay, let's solve the Bodhi tree issue first. Maybe we can get through it smoothly. Many problems will be solved easily. Don't be too discouraged."
I always remained calm and confident even when the situation worsened.
After Fang Xing disappeared, I also considered in detail that as long as the Giant Wood Museum is still there, I can find her.
The workers cautiously approached the tree and sawed off the stray branches and leaves.
During this process, I noticed a peculiar fragrance in the air, which was similar to sandalwood, but surprisingly quiet, as if it was the finest snow lotus among the most precious medicinal materials.
Kasha also noticed it. He walked around the Bodhi tree more than a dozen times, looking up and down, his face full of doubts.
Suddenly, a large translucent light gray net appeared in the sky, several hundred meters square, hanging about twenty meters above the ground.
The big net trembled slightly, and the color became darker and darker, finally turning into blue-grey.
The workers screamed loudly and fled in all directions.
I looked up and saw countless Sanskrit characters appearing on the big screen.
Someone took out his mobile phone to take pictures, and then shouted: "I can't take any pictures. It's God's punishment, it's God's punishment. We moved the sacred tree in the forest. God's punishment has arrived. Run away..."
I stayed still and read the words carefully.
At this time, no camera is as good as human eyes. As long as we understand the text, we will understand what kind of inspiration nature wants to give us.
"Giant trees are eternal, and human beings are insignificant. Only by coexisting can we live forever. The sun shines on the snow-capped mountains, and blood flows into rivers. If you hide in the trees, you can escape and survive."
This is the meaning of Sanskrit on the big net. Each character is five meters square. Looking up, it is clear.
If this is a web made of sky silk, then the death of the great wizard Qingshuang and those people is a serious warning from the forest.
Kasha stood beside me and held my arm involuntarily.
"Ye Kai, I seem to have seen the same scene in my dream. Just the night before Mr. Qin disappeared, I woke up in the middle of the night and recalled that the big tree and skynet I saw in my dream were exactly the same as now. The forest issued a warning,
Let's leave quickly, don't fight against the sky, otherwise we will die without a burial place, just like Mr. Qin and the great wizard Qingshuang..."
I never believe that man can conquer nature. Likewise, I also don’t believe that human beings must surrender to nature. This is the harmonious state of symbiosis and coexistence.
The large net lasted for more than two hours. Kasha's informant kept calling to report that the large net had already covered the Giant Tree Museum, stretching for about five kilometers and covering the entire forest. What's even weirder is that any filming equipment.
It was impossible to photograph it and save it. The material of this net was actually light-transmissive, and the camera lens could not capture it.
This incident shocked the entire Uttar Pradesh and spread to the Internet, attracting the attention of more than 200 million netizens south of the Snowy Mountains.
I know that there is no point in panicking too much. The big net comes from the "Celestial Silkworm" silk found by the female police officer. If it is the Celestial Silkworm that kills the Great Wizard Qingshuang and the others, it proves that we really should retreat. We insist on going our own way and cut down the big trees.
It will only trigger divine punishment. As for the legendary Little Golden Man, it is likely that it only exists in fantasy and no one can ever obtain it.
At dusk, the big net slowly disappeared and the sky returned to its original color.
Soon, TV stations from all over the country came in swarms and lined up to interview Kasha, but she was turned away.
Kasha's attitude is obvious. She has decided to retreat and no longer wants to support herself and wait for Qin Chengpei's return.
For a person who has lost confidence, abandoning the city and fleeing seems to be the best option.
I wrote a report on the emergence of the big network and sent it to the headquarters.
Although I had disobeyed orders before, I thought I had done nothing wrong, so I still carried out the work procedures as usual.
The feedback given by the headquarters is exciting: "Celestial Silkworm's Message is an ancient wonder. Continue to delve into the Giant Wood Museum and wait for the next miracle to appear. The issue of Fang Xing's disappearance must be investigated. We suspect that whether it is the Sisterhood or the Pavilion Elders' Association,
, are all waiting for an opportunity. This war between good and evil will break out sooner or later. The pressure faced by our Antique Investigation Bureau is too great, and every colleague must be brave enough to share it. Ye Kai, do your best, forget all the pressure, and look forward to you.
breakthrough."
Regarding the Celestial Silkworms, experts at the headquarters also gave very cautious opinions: "There has never been a case of capturing Celestial Silkworms in the past, because this creature only exists in legends and no one has seen it with their own eyes. If you need a biological
Experts can be dispatched here at any time. However, so many people died suddenly, so we should be calmer. We don't want our sacrifices to be in vain."
I have a hunch that the great wizard Qingshuang is aiming directly at the ancient Bodhi tree, and must have predicted everything that is about to happen. Therefore, she will take some preventive measures to ensure that she will never die in vain.
"I will keep an eye on the Great Wizard Qingshuang——"
As soon as the words came out, everyone on the other end of the phone laughed: "Isn't she already dead? What's the point of keeping an eye on her?"
I ignored their sarcasm and secretly made up my mind: "We cannot let go of this doubt. The great wizard Qingshuang will definitely not die easily. Only by revealing this secret can we solve it easily."
