By the mountain stream, Chen Shi and Li Tianqing looked at the porcelain fish sinking to the bottom of the water, and the two young men had solemn expressions.
They did not have the powerful magic power like Xiao Wangsun, and they did not know that it was a demonic transformation. The swimming fish turned into porcelain fish, which made them realize that this was probably caused by the evil Bodhisattva in the kiln factory.
"Why did that evil Bodhisattva suddenly attack?" Li Tianqing was puzzled.
Chen Shi was about to speak when he suddenly heard a scream. The two of them hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound and saw that a businessman who had been arguing with someone just now seemed to be dragged by something and flew into the sky!
Chen Shi looked up and saw a strange insect in the air. It had a human body, but its body was many times longer than a normal human's. It looked like three or four human bodies put together, with seven or eight long legs like arms, and limbs like bamboo joints.
Its long legs are human-like hands, but the fingers are thin and long.
Its eight long legs were spread out in the air, as if it was squatting in the air overlooking everyone.
Its head was a human-like one, but unkempt, with its mouth open. It quickly pulled the merchant who had just been captured close to it and stuffed it into its mouth.
The merchant's screams could be heard from the sky. Judging from the sound, the bug should be more than a hundred feet in the air. ——At this distance, they were helpless.
The alien insect's mouth was open, with its mouthparts opening in four directions. There were sharp teeth under its lips on all four sides, which was extremely strange.
When it was eating the merchant, its sharp teeth were moving around, as if it was grabbing the merchant's body and continuously sending it into its stomach. It did not chew, but swallowed it whole.
Judging from the size of its mouthparts, its head is probably as big as an ox cart.
Li Tianqing said: "That is evil, the filamentous worm!"
Chen Shi was stunned: "Why did Xie appear in the daytime?"
It is not yet dark, and the sun is still in the sky, but it seems to be covered by a layer of red gauze.
My grandfather said that it is impossible for evil to appear during the day, because evil will absorb the mysterious power in the moonlight and then wake up and move around in the world.
Now that the moon has not yet risen, how can evil come out?
Li Tianqing was a little excited and said quickly: "So this is what the true form of the filament worm looks like! The picture in the book is rather vague. This kind of worm appears at night, and no one has ever seen its full appearance. We only know that this thing floats in the air, and people are often involuntarily pulled into the air and eaten by it without seeing anything! Xiao Shi, we are the first to see the true form of the filament worm!"
The light is poor at night and the filaria hides high in the sky, making it difficult to see them.
One of the monks used his best eyesight to vaguely see the shape of a worm in the moonlight, so he called it the silk worm.
But the details cannot be seen clearly.
As it was still light outside, they saw the true form of the silk worm.
Li Tianqing was extremely excited. He kept looking at the worm and muttered, "The book is wrong. The worm has wings, but it doesn't have wings! It's evil. Why does it need wings to stay in the air?"
Some thin threads, too thin to be visible to the naked eye, flew out of the mouth of the evil creature and hung down. They were almost indistinguishable to the naked eye. When the sunlight shone on them, they occasionally refracted a little light, but it was difficult to detect.
Chen Shi and Li Tianqing saw these silk threads hanging next to the merchants who were just arguing.
"Do not move!"
Chen Shi quickly waved to those people and shouted, "Don't move!"
But someone had already been frightened out of his wits, and he didn't want the goods anymore, so he immediately ran away. However, as soon as he moved, he bumped into the silk thread hanging from the silkworm.
The silk thread was extremely sticky, and when it touched him, it stuck to his body. The silk thread was touched and sensed by the silk worms, and the next moment the man took off into the air and flew high into the sky!
Li Tianqing also shouted loudly: "Don't run, stand still!"
But how could a frightened person listen to them?
The people who were arguing just now immediately fled in all directions, bumping into those invisible silk threads one by one.
In the sky, the silkworms immediately reeled in their silk threads. Those who were stuck on them struggled hard, trying to tear the threads apart. However, the threads were incredibly sticky. They stuck to their hands or their bodies and could not be torn apart at all.
More than 20 people from both caravans, plus the ox cart driver, his oxen, and several horses, were stuck and pulled into the air.
However, because there were too many people and cattle and horses, it was extremely difficult to pull the silkworms, and the reeling speed was not as fast as before.
Chen Shi's eyes lit up, and he suddenly ran towards the shore, shouting, "Tianqing, prepare the Six Yin Jade Wheel!"
Although Li Tianqing did not understand what it meant, the image of the shrine and the divine fetus immediately emerged behind his mind, and he activated the Six Yin Jade Wheel.
Chen Shi had already run to the mountain road, picked up a huge stone weighing over a thousand pounds, turned his body around, and threw the stone into the air with a whoosh.
Li Tianqing immediately understood what he meant and praised: "Smart!"
The big rock touched the invisible silk thread of the filament and was stuck to it, hanging on the thread.
"Hu! Hu! Hu!"
Chen Shi threw up large rocks and smashed them at the silk thread in the air. Soon all the rocks around were thrown away by him.
Some rocks did not hit the silk thread, but most of them were caught on it.
The silkworm was already struggling to pull over twenty people and several oxen and horses, and with the addition of these huge rocks, it could not hold on any longer and was pulled down instead.
Chen Shi ran quickly, looking for more boulders, throwing them out one by one and hanging them on the silk threads.
He actually pulled the filament closer to the ground little by little!
The evil insect was screaming in the air. People landed on the ground and looked up. They could already see the strange patterns on the body of the worm, which were yellow and white, and somewhat similar to the structure of talismans.
The insect was floating in the air, and just looking at the patterns on it, it looked like a huge talisman.
But the content of the talisman was unknown. In just a short moment, the silkworm had been pulled from a height of more than 100 feet to more than 10 feet above the ground, and had entered the attack range of Li Tianqing's Six Yin Jade Wheel!
Li Tianqing immediately activated the Jade Ring Step, and the seals of his hands changed. Invisible jade wheels flew out and slashed at the silkworms in the air!
At the same time, Chen Shi threw more stones, hung them on the silk thread, and pulled the silk worm lower.
The Six Yin Jade Wheel slashed on the silkworm, sparks flew everywhere, the jade wheel shattered, and the fragments flew in all directions, extremely sharp!
Li Tianqing used various techniques and chopped out more and more jade wheels. Some of the jade wheels chopped continuously at the same position and actually cut open the extremely hard shell of the evil creature. Green slurry flowed out from the cut!
The filament finally landed on the ground, and only after it landed did we realize how huge it was. Its long body stretched for more than ten feet, and its seemingly slender legs were actually thicker than the big trees on the side of the road!
Its body swung around, and the surrounding trees fell down!
The silkworm was extremely angry and tore the silk threads with its eight legs.
The silk thread can certainly help it catch "food", but it also restricts it.
Fortunately, this evil creature had amazing brute strength and it broke three or four silk threads in a short moment. At this moment, Chen Shi picked up a big stone, jumped high, and smashed it hard on the head!
"Boom!"
The worm's head was smashed and it became drowsy. The big rock was also smashed into pieces.
"Why is Xiao Shi so vicious when he fights?"
Li Tianqing was startled and waved his hands repeatedly, changing his seals. One after another, jade wheels slashed at the filament, cutting its body in many places.
The filament worm screamed in pain and tried hard to break the other silk thread.
Chen Shi lifted a thousand-pound stone and used it as a hammer to smash one of its legs madly, soon breaking the leg.
He was about to hit his other leg when suddenly the silkworm kicked Chen Shi in the chest with great force, kicking the young man out as an illusion. Then a loud bang came from the cliff more than ten feet away.
"Xiao Shi!"
Li Tianqing exclaimed.
At this time, Chen Shi's voice came from the smoke and dust: "I'm fine... Kill it first!"
Li Tianqing focused all his attention on attacking the silk worm, but the evil worm was too big, and even if the Six Yin Jade Wheel caused it an injury, it was not fatal.
The silkworm was furious and spurted out a stream of white gas from its mouth. Li Tianqing was unable to avoid it and was hit by the gas. The gas condensed and turned into sticky silk.
"Oops!"
He couldn't stand still and was pulled up by the filaria, and fell into its mouth!
Li Tianqing frantically urged the jade wheels, and one after another, the jade wheels whistled and rushed into the mouth of the silk worm!
At the same time, Chen Shi rushed over again, picked up a reef by the mountain stream, jumped high, fell from the sky, and smashed it hard on the head of the silk worm.
The head was as big as an ox cart, and was covered with messy hair. From a distance it looked like a mess of hair, but when you got closer you could see that each hair was as thick as a finger and as hard as steel.
Although the stone that Chen Shi threw was very large, it only caused the filamentous worm to stagger.
The boulder split into two pieces. Chen Shi threw away the stone and smashed it down madly with his fists like rain!
"Dong dong dong dong!"
A series of extremely dull sounds were heard, and he smashed through the brain of the filaria, with his arms even sinking deeply into the evil brain!
The filament worm shook its head wildly, and Li Tianqing was thrown left and right, unable to keep his body steady. However, he still tried his best to activate the Six Yin Jade Wheel. The jade wheels rotated and cut rapidly into its mouth!
Suddenly, a jade wheel came out from the back of the worm's head and finally pierced through the evil creature's head!
Chen Shi's body had already sunk into the filaria's head, and was still smashing down madly.
Finally, the evil creature fell to the ground with a plop, and after struggling for a few times, it stopped moving.
Chen Shi finally woke up from his madness, gasping for breath. Li Tianqing was entangled in the silk threads and rolled on the ground for several weeks. He was also in shock, with his eyes wide open, and the madness in his eyes had not yet completely disappeared.
Chen Shi crawled out of the filaria's head, rolled to the ground, and lay there not wanting to move at all.
He had a strong feeling of hunger again, as if he had eaten something that had just whetted his appetite, but he didn't feel full and wanted to eat something more.
The filaria rotted quickly and smelly bubbles came out of its limbs. Chen Shi quickly got up and hid aside. He saw that the rather huge evil worm had rotted away completely in just a few moments. There was only a puddle of water on the ground and nothing else was left.
"What exactly is evil?"
Chen Shi was very confused and asked, "Ghost? Creature? Spirit? Or something else?"
"Evil is evil, and it is not among the ones you mentioned."
Li Tianqing is well-read and said, "Evil is something that is unreasonable and incomprehensible. No one knows where it comes from and where it goes after death. Perhaps evil appeared from the moment we set foot on Xiniu Island."
The more Chen Shi thought about the texture patterns on the body of the filamentous worm, the more he found it strange.
This pattern is very similar to a talisman.
"After the evil creature died, it quickly decayed. There were no bones or shells left, only some foul-smelling water stains. By the way, the talisman of Tiebi Weng also turned into red cinnabar blood after I smashed it, and it was scattered everywhere. It is somewhat similar to the scene in front of me."
He sighed, "It's a pity that this evil decayed too quickly, and I couldn't remember the talisman pattern on it..."
"I remember."
Li Tianqing asked in confusion, "Xiao Shi, what do you want the pattern on Xie's body for?"
"Let's do an experiment! Black pot, black pot!"
