Longevity begins with alchemy

Chapter 40 Insect Demon
"The willow head on the moon, after about dusk."

In the evening, a long table was set up in the small courtyard of the Su family, and a family banquet began.

There are delicacies on the table, as well as wine and fruit platters.

Shao Juan and Lu Guangtian were full of energy, frying, frying, and stewing. Su Lihua also made seven or eight kinds of snacks. They worked together to prepare a large table full of food.

The little girl Song Qian was already eager to see the delicious food on the table, but their children were well-educated by Su Lihua, and they could only be put on the table when everyone was there, so they frequently shuttled between the front and back courtyards, muttering. "Master should be out soon."

Little Song Qian's "greedy cat" behavior made everyone laugh.

Just when everyone was busy teasing her, little Song Qian suddenly shouted happily, "Master is out of seclusion, everyone, come and sit down, get ready to eat."

When everyone heard the sound and came to the table, they saw Su Yi walking from the backyard holding Song Qian's little hand. At this time, Su Yi's aura had stabilized and was no longer as oppressive as when he first broke through.

Everyone sat down in their respective seats, Lu Guangtian gave the order, and everyone raised their glasses to celebrate Su Yi's success...

During the banquet, Su Yi first told everyone some of his subtle feelings when he broke through the situation, leaving it as a reference for everyone when they broke through the situation.

Next, everyone talked about Xiao Su's departure tomorrow. Su Yi felt quite emotional after hearing this.

Regardless of whether he and the Su family were involved in a transaction, after all, Xiao Su was brought up by him. After living together for ten years, there will definitely be many feelings. Now that he is about to leave, of course he will feel reluctant to leave. .

But Su Yi is not that indecisive person. He knew in his heart that Xiao Su shouldered the expectations of the Su family, so he only said something like "you need to work hard after returning home, don't waste your cultivation and skills" and so on.

At this time, Lu Guangtian suddenly said: "Yesterday I heard about the 'Insect Demon' in Fangshi. Tomorrow, Xiao Su, you and your party should be more careful on the road."

"Bug Demon!"

Su Yi's heart moved when he heard Lu Guangtian's words, and there was a faint chill in his soul.

"Father, what is an insect demon?" Xiao Song Qian blinked and looked at Lu Guangtian and asked.

Everyone also stopped their chopsticks and looked at Lu Guangtian.

Seeing this, Lu Guangtian explained: "I don't know exactly what an insect demon is."

Seeing everyone's silence, he continued: "The key point is that there are only rumors now. The only person who has personally experienced the insect demon has been taken up the mountain by the Luoxia Sect. But since the rumors have noses and eyes, this must be true."

After hearing this, Su Yi said: "Brother Lu, then you can tell the rumors among the people and let everyone listen."

Lu Guangtian nodded after listening, "Speaking of this, we have to start from the Heizhang Mountains.

You also know that there are fewer and fewer monsters over there now, and the team hunting monsters is going deeper and deeper into the mountains.

About two or three months ago, a group of twenty or thirty people entered the mountain. "

Speaking of this, Lu Guangtian suddenly changed his words, "Nowadays, the teams that go into the mountains to hunt monsters are so big. At that time, there were only five or six of us, and seven or eight people could go into the mountains."

Then he gave his own explanation, "Yes, the deeper you go into the mountain, the greater the danger, so naturally more people will go with you."

Su Yi listened to him rambling, but couldn't get to the point.

He had something on his mind and was anxious.

However, Lu Guangtian always spoke like this, and he couldn't interrupt Lu Guangtian when he thought of what to say, so he could only wait patiently.At this time, Lu Guangtian himself brought the conversation back, "But he said that those 30 people went into the mountains and walked for a month or two, but they only hunted some low-grade wild boar and rabbits. How can they get money back?"

"At this time, someone suggested that we walk one more level inward. If you have never been into the mountain, you wouldn't know that the Heizhang Mountains are extraordinary. Legend has it that there are nine levels in total, and each level is as dangerous as the next."

Su Yi felt dizzy after hearing this, and Brother Lu changed the topic again.

But then I thought about it, why did I suddenly become so out of control!
With such a reminder, he calmed down and listened carefully to what Lu Guangtian said.

"Heizhang Mountains have been the lair of demonic beasts since ancient times. It is said that in ancient times, the nine-level deep Black Zhang Mountain had one demon lord, three levels and one demon commander. On the top of the nine levels, there were ninety-nine and eighty-one demon gods!"

Xiao Song Qian heard this interestingly and asked, "Father, since there are so many demon gods in the Heizhang Mountains, why don't we see them walking around now?"

Lu Guangtian rubbed Song Qian's little head after hearing this, "It's a long story, let's start with the ancient war between the monster race and the human race, that's..."

"Brother Lu!" Hearing this, Su Yi had no choice but to interrupt Lu Guangtian. If he was allowed to continue talking, he wouldn't be able to talk until dawn.

Then Su Yi said to Song Qian: "Good disciple, let your adoptive father tell you some time another day."

Lu Guangtian continued to talk about the previous topic, "Someone suggested walking inward one more level, and half of the people in the team disagreed."

"If you want to know that the Heizhang Mountains can threaten humans, you don't know the monsters. The key is the erratic and strange black mist. This is also the origin of the Heizhang Mountains' name."

"Nowadays, when people enter the mountain, they usually only enter the outermost one or two layers. It's okay. If you go further in, the black fog will increase. The black fog is not only erratic, but also melts gold and corrodes bones. If you really encounter it, it will be a disaster. A narrow escape from death.”

"Despite such danger, half of the people still insist on taking another level. After all, you all know what the situation is now. Casual cultivators are more afraid of death than poverty!"

"Just like that, I couldn't help but persuade, and finally everyone agreed, and everyone walked inward again. Who knew that this move would almost lead to the annihilation of the entire army!"

Seeing Lu Guangtian acting like a storyteller, Su Yi was anxious and laughing in his heart. Fortunately, it seemed that he finally got to the point.

"On the seventh day when the group walked inward, they had actually gone deep enough. At this time, even those who insisted at first gave up."

"Just when everyone was gathering together to discuss whether to turn back, they suddenly heard a buzzing sound."

"Everyone looked up and saw what looked like a white cloud, floating towards them at a very fast speed."

"Baiyun? Foster father, didn't you just say it was black mist? Why..."

Su Lihua quickly hugged Song Qian next to her and signaled Lu Guangtian to continue.

"It is indeed not black fog but white clouds. This is what I am confused about. Unfortunately, the rumors do not make it clear. They only say that the white clouds are made up of countless finger-long white monster insects."

"What do you mean, foster father, by the insect demon?" Xiao Song Qian finally got to the point this time.

"It is said that those demonic insects are controlled by people, so they attack everyone, and that person also has an inhuman and ghostly appearance, and is also very vicious. He controls the demonic insects and almost kills all those people. In the end, he only To escape a person, isn’t this a completely demonic practice!”

When Su Yi heard this, he probably understood something in his heart, and finally asked, "Then how can the escaped person escape the siege of demon insects?"

Lu Guangtian listened and replied: "It is said that the man's ancestors handed down a moving talisman. At the critical moment, the man activated the talisman and escaped!"
