"Although this thing is disgusting, it is practical!"
Su Jing didn't think so, as a Gu master, he couldn't even bear this.
What kind of Gu Master is that?
Isn't Gu Master just dealing with bugs?
"So, although these monkeys are dead, the Chi Gu on them is still alive?"
Wu Xie suddenly came to his senses at this moment, looking vigilantly at the corpses of monkeys lying around.
"The host is dead, although Chi Gu will not die, but it will take a while to get away from the host."
"Don't be nervous!"
Hearing Su Jing's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course, even if these Chi Gu can escape from the host immediately, so what?
If you put it here by yourself, can you still turn the sky upside down?
Looking around at the corpses of these monkeys, Su Jing waved his hand.
Then they were all included in the spirit Gu space.
This Chi Gu has some merits.
If it can be retrained by itself, it can be combined with the Qilin Demon Ape.
It should be able to greatly increase the combat power of the Demon Ape.
Before refining, they had to be killed.
Only the Chi Gu that wins in the end is eligible to be retrained.
After finishing these, Su Jing called everyone to continue to set off.
…………
"By the way, old itch, I remember you said before that when you found this bronze tree, it was on an altar, right?"
While climbing up, Wu Xie seemed to have thought of something, and asked the old itchy who was leading the way.
"Ah? What's wrong?"
The old itchy nodded, doubting aloud.
"I thought about it just now. The time when this bronze tree appeared was at least in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and it may even be even earlier."
"The people of Sheguo offer sacrifices to this giant bronze tree. It may be the Jumang, the god of wood, or Tongtian Jianmu."
"This kind of sacrifice will be sacrificed with blood."
"After those monkeys controlled by Chi Gu were killed by Master Su, their blood flowed into the cloud and thunder pattern on the tree."
"If it hadn't been designed in advance, it wouldn't be able to run so smoothly. Coupled with the traces of bloodletting tanks on the branches, it is enough to prove that this bronze tree is a sacrificial vessel for blood sacrifice!"
"Naive, what on earth are you trying to say?"
The fat man listened to Wu Xie rambling for a long time, but he didn't get bored.
After Su Jing heard it, he interrupted aloud.
"Usually blood sacrifices involve drawing blood into the ground. If the sacrifice is performed from above, the blood will cover the entire bronze tree. The number of sacrifices required is by no means a small number."
"Even if such a large-scale sacrifice cannot be held for a long time, even so, there may be tens of thousands of thousand-year-old corpses hanging on it!"
"Master Su is right. This bronze tree is very weird. It might turn the sacrifices into zongzi."
"If that's the case, then we..."
Wu Xie had a sullen face, although he had finished speaking halfway.
But everyone understood what he meant, and their expressions changed slightly.
Seeing them like this, Su Jing shook his head helplessly.
"Afraid of wool?"
"It's all here, do you still want to turn around and go back?"
"Besides, didn't he come here before? If there are really so many zongzi, do you think he can leave alive?"
Signaling to Old Itch, Su Jing said lightly.
"Master Su said, yes, when I first came here, I really didn't see any zongzi... There are quite a few mummified corpses, but they are all dried animal corpses..."
"Wu Xie, your worries are unnecessary."
"Okay, let's go, or some god will treat us as sacrifices later..."
Old Itch smiled and said out loud.
With the guarantee from Lao Xie, Fatty Wu Xie and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
...............
"Okay, hurry up and climb, pay attention, the branches in front are getting denser!"
Su Jing made a point aloud, and then continued to cooperate with Her Lady Queen to find the totems made up of runes hidden in the cloud and thunder pattern and the blood groove on the bronze sacred tree.
Hearing Su Jing's words, Fatty and the others couldn't care less about making jokes.
With a flashlight, the beams of light were gathered together and shot towards the front.
I saw that the branches above the head gradually became denser.
Seven or eight meters further up, it is already dense like a thorn forest.
Relatively speaking, it is more dangerous than climbing against the bronze tree.
If you accidentally miss a foot, you will fall down.
Only Wu Xie, Fatty, Grasshopper and his only remaining companion had this trouble.
For Su Jing, brother, Ah Ning and Her Majesty the Queen, this is all pediatrics.
.........
After the old itchy climbed up, the little brother also climbed up nimbly.
Then a section of rope was lowered, and Wu Xie and Fatty climbed up with them.
The bronze tree branches in this place are so dense that there is nowhere to intervene.
Everyone walked more cautiously.
But at the same time, the engraved runes also began to become denser.
And the higher you go, the more obvious the dense trend is, and there are more permutations and combinations.
Her Lady Queen can only continue to analyze and record.
Going further up, the surrounding rock walls gradually changed.
Stalactites and rock curtains appeared.
Obviously, the scope of manual excavation has been exceeded, so Su Jing made a rough estimate.
Almost already climbed about 50 meters.
This place is already a naturally formed cave.
After passing this section, the rock wall begins to shrink.
Some caves of different sizes appeared one after another on both sides.
It's not too deep, and you can see to the end at a glance.
It is estimated that this place should be the habitat of the monkeys controlled by Chi Gu.
It didn't take long to climb up again.
Su Jing, who was cooperating with Her Lady Queen to record the runes, suddenly heard an exclamation from the fat man.
"Zinima! So many mummies!"
"Master Su, brother, naive, look!"
Hearing this, Su Jing raised his eyes and looked over.
There were dozens of corpses wearing Chi Gu masks, whose bodies were pierced by branches or stuck in the gaps.
In a weird twisted state.
It is estimated that it was roasted into a mummified corpse by the hot wind blowing from above.
"Why do these monkeys seem to have a skin disease?"
Wu Xie looked over, and saw that all the hair on the mummy's body had fallen off, and there were still many obvious white spots in some places.
Doesn't it look like a monkey with a skin disease?
"Not monkeys, these are people!"
Su Jing walked up, raised his hand and took off the Chi Gu on the face of a mummy next to him.
Turn it over and take a look, the Chi Gu in the spiral protrusion has become a fossil.
This made Su Jing a little disappointed.
Obviously, all the Chi Gu parasitic on these mummy corpses are no longer usable...
On the other hand, in this mummy, the eyes have shrunk into two hollows, and the mouth is wide open, revealing the broken teeth.
The face is so ferocious that people can't bear to look directly at it.
But judging from the teeth, this mummy is definitely a human!
"Yeah? Are you really a human?"
"But wasn't it a monkey before? Why did it become a human now?"
Seeing the condition of the mummy, Ah Ning asked in bewilderment.
Chapter 243 Fatty, Believe in Science
"These people should guard the She Kingdom Guards of the Bronze Sacred Tree."
"Being planted with Chi Gu, guarding the Bronze Tree."
"They were killed..."
"Look..."
Su Jing casually threw away the mask in his hand, then shone the light on the mummy's neck, and raised his hand to stroke it.
"Sealing the throat with a sword is quite straightforward!"
"At that time, it may be because the bronze sacred tree attracted the coveting of certain existences."
"That's why the Sheguo tribe was brutally wiped out. Even the guardians of the bronze sacred tree here couldn't avoid being slaughtered."
After explaining, Su Jing fell into deep thought.
If there was any power at that time, it could have wiped out the tribes of the She Kingdom all at once.
With motivation and with such strength...
Probably only the Queen Mother of the West...
Shaking his head, Su Jing withdrew his scattered thoughts.
After all, it's just speculation.
There is no actual evidence, so there is no need to guess.
"Okay, these things are not a threat, let's go!"
When observing the mummy, everyone also rested for a while.
Naturally, I have no objection to Su Jing's arrangement.
But at this moment, Lao Xie suddenly called Wu Xie.
"Wu Xie, also, are there any flares?"
