Chapter 286 Returning to the Taoist Temple to Get Immortal Seeds
In the early morning of the next day, at five o'clock, someone came outside the door.
It was Commander Zhang.
Seemingly having something important to do but not daring to disturb his peaceful dream, Commander Zhang arrived and asked the soldier guarding the door if he was awake. After receiving the answer that he was not awake, he paced back and forth outside the door.
The tiny steps showed his anxiety.
The calico cat huddled on the bed in the house, its entire body under the quilt, with only one head sticking out, staring outside with wide eyes.
After hesitating for a long time, he turned around and woke up the Taoist.
"Meow..."
The Taoist opened his eyes and looked outside. He knew what was going on, so he got dressed and got up without saying much.
The handkerchief I used to wash my face last night was still wet, so I pulled it over and wiped my face casually. There was a big temperature difference between morning and night on the grassland, so the handkerchief was icy and cold, which instantly made me wake up.
When he opened the door and saw that it was dark outside, a lantern was lit, and Military Advisor Zhang was pacing. When he heard the sound, he turned to look at him.
"Mr. Song, are you awake?"
"Wake up." Song You looked at him calmly, "Commander Zhang is waiting outside the door, but what's the important matter?"
"The enchantments that several generals had previously suffered suddenly broke out and they were in great pain. We had no other choice but to invite you, sir, to come and have a look."
"Please lead the way."
"this way please."
Song You turned around, closed the door, and left with him.
It was still dark at this time.
However, except for a few people in prosperous places such as Changjing Yidu who have nightlife these days, most people have a very boring night. After dark, if there are no night conversations between couples or other entertainment activities, it will be difficult to fall asleep early and sleep until the next day.
The next day is bright, so when many officials have something to do, they often get up at five o'clock. Sometimes in the army, they need to set up camp and set up strongholds, so they get up very early.
Song You followed him through the streets and alleys.
There were torches lit everywhere.
As Commander Zhang walked away, he asked him, "Did Mr. Zhang disturb his dream?"
"If it's something evil, the military advisor doesn't need to be polite, just tell the story."
"Sir, you are righteous." Commander Zhang paused for a moment, walking hurriedly but not stopping talking, "Sir, do you still remember those wasps that turned into walnuts and grew in size yesterday?"
"Remember."
"There are two types of wasps raised by the demon, one red and one yellow. The yellow one is the one Mr. met yesterday. It can grow in size and fly around to hurt people. The red one can burrow into people's bodies and grow on the spine." Zhang
The military advisor said to him as he walked, "Many generals in the army have been affected by this trick before. However, this thing does not hurt people urgently and does not come violently. It is like it is not there at ordinary times. It just makes people weak. When it comes, you need to exert your strength."
When I was young, my whole body ached, I couldn't fight, and I rarely killed anyone. In addition, my husband had just come the day before yesterday and was busy with something, so I didn't bother him immediately with it. But I don't know that it was the hundreds of yellow wasps that my husband had killed yesterday.
Either destroy them all or something, which angered the demon. After nightfall tonight, all the walnuts on the generals in the city swelled up and started to attack. The pain was excruciating. Some generals were in severe pain. Zhang had no choice but to give it back.
If it's not bright, come and ask for it, sir."
"That's it..."
Song You nodded.
The people in the city didn't seem to know that the monster was dead, they just thought that they had only neutralized the monster's attack yesterday.
Now it seems that these walnuts are closely connected with the demon. When the demon died, the walnuts started to have attacks one after another.
Not long after, two people and a cat came to a house.
I saw a row of wooden beds in the house. On the wooden beds, there were strong men lying on their backs, covered with quilts, and someone was waiting on them.
Before entering, I heard a groan and a cry of pain.
"Ouch……"
"hiss……"
It all came from the mouths of these strong men.
"Open it and show it to sir."
"yes!"
A soldier immediately carefully opened a quilt.
Below is a sturdy man with a strong back and waist. He is not wearing a shirt. Even though there is a layer of fat on the body, you can still see the strong figure underneath. But such a man is lying on the bed in pain.
And at the spine of his waist, there was a sudden bulge, as big as a fist, and it was red. For those who didn't know, they thought it was a giant blister.
The bulging bag is still beating.
The calico cat was curious about everything and wanted to see everything. He stood up on the wooden bed and took a look.
Song You also inspected it carefully and reached out to touch it lightly.
"hiss……"
The lying strong man suddenly bared his teeth.
"How many people in the army have been affected by this spell?" Song You counted the beds in the room, and there were eleven.
The calico cat glanced at the strong man whose facial features were twisted in pain, and then at Song You. Then he looked at the big bag on the strong man's back, and actually wanted to reach out and touch it to see if he would touch it.
It will hurt.
Unfortunately, as soon as he stretched out his claws, he was caught back by the Taoist.
"These eleven are just generals in the army." Commander Zhang said with a bitter look on his face, "There are also dozens of small schools, and there may be hundreds of soldiers, all lying in the wounded barracks. Anyway, there was a period of time before this
The demon always likes to hide in the dark. When he sees the generals and captains leading the troops into battle, or the soldiers who are particularly brave, he will send a wasp there. Some generals and captains who are more keen will use weapons to kill them, and the battle array will be destroyed.
In the chaos, if you didn't notice or react for a while, you were all hit. After that, everyone was on guard, and things got better."
"So many..."
"you do not say!"
"What can the military medical officer do?"
"I have tried many methods, including medicine, stone, acupuncture, and talismans. Some soldiers were almost hurt to death. They even tried to dig it out with a knife or smash it with something, but it didn't work.
It has grown together with the spine, and when it is broken or removed, the person will be dead long ago. Several medical officials said that even if Dr. Cai comes in person, he may not be able to find a solution."
"Grown together with the spine..."
Song You couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
Maybe Dr. Cai will also have a headache.
"Mr. Song..."
"Commander, don't be anxious."
But Song You suddenly raised his brows and said to him: "Although this magic method is difficult, there is still a solution."
"Please give me some advice, sir."
"This walnut grows on the bodies of the generals but does not cause any damage. It is simply because they know that you cannot take it off, so they parasitize on the bodies of the generals with peace of mind, slowly absorbing the blood and vitality, and wait until it is needed or when their appetite is satisfied.
He had a seizure and left." Song You paused, "I can cast a spell to temporarily calm it down. As for taking it out, I have to ask an expert in the military to help."
"I wonder which master is actually capable of this?"
"There is a treasure left by our ancestors in our lower division, called the disaster-removing vine, which is best at removing disasters for people." Song You said to him, "It's a pity that the division is thousands of miles away from here."
"I see."
Commander Zhang suddenly realized what he was saying, turned around and shouted to the people outside: "Go quickly and invite Mr. Jiang from the Qiren Camp!"
"yes!"
Immediately, someone took orders and left.
Song You withdrew his gaze and looked at the generals in the room.
Then he asked the soldiers to lift off the quilts covering the generals one by one, and cast a spell to release streams of bright white light, which fell on the bulging bumps on the backs of the generals.
Just listen to the moans in the room.
The generals all felt the burning, throbbing pain on their backs suddenly become cold, as if someone had suddenly placed a piece of ice on the burnt area, and they couldn't help but scream.
Not long after, a sleepy-eyed Jiang Dadu followed the soldiers in.
"Commander Zhang, oh, Mr. Song is here too. I wonder what's important and what use can I have?"
"I would like to ask you to use your magical power to get something." Commander Zhang asked him, "I wonder if Mr. Jiang's treasure chest will be empty today?"
"Where to get it? What is it?"
Jiang Dadu suddenly woke up and asked doubtfully.
Commander Zhang then turned to look at Song You.
Jiang Dadu also looked at Song You.
"I wonder if Mr. Jiang has been to Yizhou? Lingquan County, Zhuo County, Yizhou." Song You asked him.
"The villain relies on this ability to make a living. Sometimes when he is bored at night, he likes to wander around. At a glance, he is familiar with the route. There are 1,800 counties in Dayan. I dare not say that I have been to every county, but I am also familiar with it.
I have been to most of them, and I have certainly been to the Lingquan in Zhuojun County that the gentleman mentioned." Jiang Dadu grinned, "It's just that I'm a rough person. If you have detailed requirements for the place, it won't work. You have to be careful.
I'll just have to make a trip at some time. If you need it, sir, I'll have to tell you the detailed local route."
"Lingquan County, Zhuo County, go out of the county to the southeast, follow the official road, just past the nine earthen moats, there is a small road on the right, there is a village two miles away, after passing the village and walking up the stream, you will reach Yinyang Mountain. On the mountain
There is a Taoist temple called Fulong Temple." Song You knew that he was walking fast and had trouble asking for directions, so he explained it in detail and asked Mr. Jiang to go there."
"Make a note, I have to wait until tonight." Jiang Dadu said, "It's thousands of miles to get to Zhuo County, Yizhou. I'll set off as soon as it gets dark. I have to hurry up and make sure I don't make any mistakes in the middle. Only then can I get there.
.Find a bamboo forest to rest and spend the day. You can probably come back the day after tomorrow.”
"There is no need for tonight. I will give Mr. Jiang some spiritual power, which will help Mr. Jiang to move around in the day and not be hurt by the sun and heat."
"really?"
"Don't dare to lie." Song You paused, "But when Mr. Jiang arrives at Yin Yang Mountain, if you can't find the Taoist temple, you can shout my name loudly and say that I invited you to go. When you get to the Taoist temple, please be careful.
, don’t act rashly.”
"Don't worry!" Jiang Dadu grinned, "Since you are Mr. Song's disciple, naturally you can't lose your etiquette!"
"Mr. Jiang is in trouble."
Song You mainly felt that his master had a bad personality and bad temper. She hated being disturbed the most, and he didn't know what she was doing at the moment. Mr. Jiang wandered there in a fugue. He had no human rights and was as careless as Xing Wu.
If one's temper makes one of his masters unhappy and turns into a noisy ghost, wouldn't it just yawn and disappear?
"It's just a small one, so what can I say?"
"Just say that I want to take 300 seeds of the plague vine to break the demon and save people." Song You said to him.
"Ask them to put 300 seeds of the pest-killing vine...the seeds of the pest-removing vine into the small box when the box appears." Jiang Dadu added for him, fearing that he would make a mistake, he also repeated the three words of the pest-removing vine.
words.
"Yes, please remember, Mr. Jiang, that words must not be treated lightly."
"Okay!"
"etc……"
"Any other instructions, sir?"
"Forget it, it's nothing, let's go."
"okay!"
Jiang Dadu calmly found a bed, gave a few instructions, and lay down on the spot.
He covered himself with quilt and squinted his eyes.
Immediately, he was out of his mind. He greeted the Taoist with a smile, and even made a gesture to brush Military Master Zhang's hair.
The Taoist waved out a burst of spiritual power, causing the fat man's soul to tremble and his eyes to light up. Then Song Youcai held hands with him and asked him to be careful along the way.
