After the blockade of the disaster relief area was over, the jailers planned to evacuate.
As for the twelve strange herbs in Tuofeng Mountain, according to Song Zongwu, they grew under the influence of the Disaster Elimination Restricted Area.
In almost every blocked restricted area, the surrounding ecology will change.
It represents the twelve kinds of strange objects contained in the disaster relief restricted area.
The appearance of the herb could reveal the characteristics of a strange thing, but Ren Qing always felt that one was missing.
The real number should be thirteen, not twelve.
He didn't know much about the disaster relief restricted area, so he reminded Song Zongwu indirectly, but the other party didn't find anything unusual after inspection.
Under such circumstances, there is no reason to stay in Camelback Mountain.
After these days, the faces of the government officials showed lingering fatigue.
Of course, there are also people like Xiao Wu who have withstood the pressure and transformed themselves, and their originally thin bodies have become much stronger.
When he returns to Sanxiang City, Xiao Wu will be promoted to a formal yamen servant, and his monthly money will more than double.
Dozens of people immediately set off to return.
The jailers followed behind the Yamen servants to prevent sudden wild beast attacks.
Only the land chooses to escape underground and rush on its way.
After walking for dozens of miles, they found that all the nearby mountain residents had evacuated, and the villages were deserted, with not even a human being in sight.
Ren Qing did not try to come into contact with the strange objects of the Demonic Scripture, mainly because there was no shortage of opportunities after becoming a jailer, so why take such a risk.
The team marched from morning to night for a day, and as it got late, they found an open space to stop and rest.
The jailers chose to be distributed nearby, practice their own practices without disturbing others, and take care of their own food.
Ren Qing was about to swallow some animal eyes and meditate on the spell, but he noticed a few guards shivering and warming themselves by the campfire.
He stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?"
The detective shuddered and replied: "Miss Ren is fine, just a little chilly."
Only then did Ren Qing discover that several government officials were in a similar situation.
But if summer is approaching, why is it so cold in mid-April?
The reason why the jailers didn't notice it was because the temperature difference was not obvious, which was normal for their physiques.
Ren Qing couldn't find what the problem was, and could only suspect that it was due to the mountain breeze, which made his whole body cold.
He cut down a few trees with a large seedling knife, and once he had enough firewood to start a fire, it was no big deal.
The temperature did not drop further.
Ren Qing felt relieved. Song Zongwu and others were here anyway, so there was no need to worry about danger.
He sat cross-legged on a high place and devoted himself wholeheartedly to contemplating the objectless method.
Although the information flow can forcibly improve the technique, you still have to rely on yourself to fully master it.
Ren Qing's current heavy eyes are far different from when he was first promoted to the Half-Zombie Realm, and he has gradually begun to explore the true power of the spell.
"Being ahead of the enemy" can even sense the crisis. It is no longer just a matter of reaction.
Unknowingly, Ren Qing's soul floated out slowly, as if standing above his head looking at his body.
He didn't dare to try to move, as the loss would outweigh the gain if his soul was damaged.
Ren Qing was just adapting to the state of separation of body and soul to prepare for his future promotion to the Twin Nightmare.
As he concentrated his attention, he could clearly hear nearby movements, such as the sound of a government servant snoring and the traces of reptiles that came out to hunt at night.
Suddenly, Ren Qing frowned.
A strange rustling sound reached my ears.
Some sounds like flesh and blood being torn apart, mixed with the sound of bones being broken into pieces.
Because Ren Qing's state of mind was affected, he immediately exited the state of separation of body and soul. He opened his eyes and looked around quickly.
But the camp was peaceful, and he saw nothing strange at all, nor did he seem to be affected by any strange object.
Ren Qing wanted to enter the body and soul separation confirmation again, but haste makes waste. The more he cared about it, the harder it was to find the state.
He had no choice but to focus on visualization techniques and also pay attention to his surroundings.
However, until daybreak, nothing strange happened on the hilltop where they were stationed. On the contrary, Ren Qing suffered from a nervous breakdown.
The yamen servants all became energetic after getting enough sleep, and each simply ate some dry food.
Ren Qing got rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind, and then directed everyone to pack their things, planning to return to Sanxiang City as soon as possible.
They looked at each other in silence along the way.
When the setting sun shone on them, they could already see the majestic city gate in the distance.
Everyone subconsciously speeded up the pace. When the officers and soldiers saw that there were guards escorting them, they let them into the city without checking.
The streets with people coming and going attract the eye.
Vendors shout out their wares, the smell of food and drink penetrates the nostrils, and stew stalls can be seen everywhere.
It aroused the tear ducts of some government officials.
Compared to the temporary camp in the mountains, it feels like returning to the human world at this moment.
"Damn, I'm so suffocated."
Huang Ziwan wore a bamboo hat and ran into the city like a girl.
Mu Yi and others greeted Song Zongwu and left one after another.
Song Zongwu's expression was a little confused.
He stopped and said, "Ren Qing, take the Yamen servant to the Yamen to report. I will come to see you in a few days."
Ren Qing couldn't help but ask: "Senior Song, what's wrong?"
"Have you ever seen the land?"
"I saw it at first, but then I disappeared underground."
Song Zongwu nodded and said, "I must be worrying too much."
Tutu left the team early, but he always felt that the other party was inexplicably excited, as if he was hiding something.
Ren Qing didn't think much and returned to the Yamen together with the Yamen servant.
The other yamen officials expressed their gratitude to Ren Qing very politely and even thought of inviting them to a banquet, but they were all rejected by him.
Everyone could not rest immediately, they had to go to the magistrate first to receive the reward.
Ren Qing couldn't help but frown as he walked.
The sound that the soul sensed last night seemed to come from underground?!!
…………
Smoke and dust from the recently extinguished bonfire were scattered everywhere, and there were even dry food leftovers eaten by the government officials.
As night falls, cracks spread from the ground.
The nearby birds spread their wings and move away, which seems to indicate something unusual.
After a while, a blood-red seedling grew on the hillside. It was several meters in size in the blink of an eye. It seemed to be a herbal medicine from the outside.
The branches of the herb are spread all over the face, and the leaves are beating like a heart.
If Ren Qing were present, he would definitely recognize the herb as the one that disappeared from the Disaster Elimination Restricted Area, and the strange thing associated with the "Magic Planting Sutra".
When the hillside was opened by cracks, the roots of the giant herbs were exposed.
What's weird is that there is a corpse attached to the end of the root.
The corpse, half human and half animal, covered in scales similar to that of a pangolin, is none other than the land itself.
He seemed to be frozen in the moment of death, and you could still see the greed on his face, and the roots grew out of his body, as if he had actively swallowed the grass seeds into his belly during his lifetime.
A faint mist dispersed, and all beasts that came close to the giant herb turned into pus, which was eventually absorbed by the roots.
The herbs continued to grow and soon reached a size of more than ten meters, and the area of the mist became wider and wider.
The fog cleared.
Herbs burrow into the earth like living creatures.
Tu Tu woke up and looked at his hands with an incomprehensible expression.
