There were six complete corpses in total, and a dozen more with only bones left.
It didn't look like it had been severely attacked, but if you looked closely, you found that whether it was an ordinary corpse or one that had been turned into a skeleton, there was a small hole as thick as a finger on the top of the head.
This was undoubtedly the fatal wound for all the deceased.
Li Feng looked puzzled. He didn't understand what was attacking these people. The dead who still had bodies didn't seem to die in pain, and they didn't show much sign of resistance.
Could it be said that he was killed with one blow?
So who killed it and why did it happen?
While thinking about it, Li Feng carefully observed several corpses, but could not feel anything strange at all.
This made Li Feng very curious, and then he looked at Li Yan: "Xiao Yan, is there any physical evidence left where the accident happened?"
Li Yan shook her head: "No, we checked carefully for a long time, but there was nothing, only some blood stains, and no traces of fighting."
"It seems like these people just sat there and died."
"Oh?" Li Feng raised his eyebrows, pondered for a long time, and decided to go to the place where the dead were with Li Yan.
The two rushed all the way to the mountains. The place where the accident occurred was a cave. At this time, the place had been sealed off, but no one was guarding it. After Li Yan and Li Feng entered, they found that the cave was in a mess, with some quilts and some
Straw and food scraps.
Looking inside the cave, I found that it was not very deep, and there were many gaps into the mountain.
In addition, Li Feng also felt a special yin energy.
This made Li Feng feel a little confused. After pondering for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up: "I know, these people should have all died in this cave, and were killed by soul-breaking insects."
"Soul-breaking worm?" Li Yan was confused when she heard this.
"Yes, they are soul-breaking insects. Those little things should be hidden in this mountain." Li Feng nodded.
Li Yan was even more confused: "Li Feng, what is a soul-breaking insect? Why have I never heard of it?"
Li Feng smiled: "Haha, this is not surprising, because the soul-breaking insect is not a species that can be seen normally, or it should be an ancient thing."
"However, this kind of bug is very powerful. It is born from the condensation of yin energy. It is like a blood-sucking bug. It pierces human skin and enters the human body, but humans cannot feel it at all."
"It enters the human brain later, absorbs the human soul, grows rapidly, and then bursts out from the Baihui point, killing the person in an instant..."
Li Feng then explained for a while that the reason why he knew the existence of this kind of insect was because he had absorbed the energy and memory of the Sword God.
But at the same time, this also made him very confused. According to some memories he had obtained before, there were not so many strange things in this small world.
Murders rarely occur, but strange things happened constantly during this period. First, the sword god's inheritance was absorbed by him, then there was the demon soul stone, and later there was evil Buddhism, and such murders happened again.
This is too strange!
Especially this soul-breaking insect, this kind of thing is said to be a species that existed only in the ancient times of this small world. At that time, because of the war, too many people died, and the yin energy was too strong, so this kind of creature condensed.
But why does it appear again now?
Is there going to be any big changes in this small world?
Li Yan next to her was also shocked: "Then where is the soul-breaking worm you mentioned? Why can't we see it?"
"Also, these people died so quietly, don't they feel any pain?"
Li Feng shook his head: "It's because they don't have any pain that I am sure they are soul-breaking insects, because this kind of insect is very small, and more importantly, it has a kind of yin energy that affects the soul, which makes people feel even worse."
"And when it enters the human body, it will devour the person's soul and grow rapidly."
"In this way, the person is actually dead, and when the brain finally breaks out, the person will not feel anything."
At this point, his eyes narrowed: "What we are looking for now is the insect farmer."
Li Yan was shocked again: "People who raise insects? Are you saying that these insects were raised by people?"
Li Feng nodded slightly: "Yes, with the current spiritual energy conditions of heaven and earth, it is difficult for this kind of bug to form. Even if it is formed, it will be difficult to get out, because this kind of bug has a fatal weakness, that is, it is afraid of light and can only grow in the dark.
A bug bag can take them away."
"And it's obviously impossible for so many people to come to the same cave just to avoid something, especially since there are so many dead bones here. This is even more impossible. If people come to a place like this, they will feel scared immediately.
, where will I stay here?”
"Another point is that when these bugs break their brains, they often do it at night, because this is the safest way for them."
"Then they will hide in the mountains, where there is no light, so they can continue to grow."
"So it may be a coincidence that they attack one person and others are hiding here. If they attack so many people, it must be caused by someone who keeps insects."
Li Yan looked puzzled: "How is this possible? The bug you mentioned is so dangerous, so why do others keep it?"
Li Feng smiled bitterly: "Although this kind of insect is dangerous, it also has a great effect, that is, after devouring a person's life soul, it will produce a larvae, and then the big insect will form a soul cocoon, and this soul cocoon will
It is the purest soul energy, which can increase the strength of one's soul and improve one's cultivation level."
"You can even learn the soul attack skill later, and you can use this skill to attack enemies. It is extremely powerful."
"So the people who keep insects must also be quite powerful."
Li Yan was shocked: "Then what should we do now? We can't let the insect farmer continue like this. How many people will be harmed?"
Li Feng pondered for a while: "There is no other way now but to wait. Let's do this, Xiaoyan, you go back to the county office first and I will wait here for the insect farmer to show up."
"I think it won't be long before he comes here to pick up bugs, or lures another victim here."
Li Yan shook her head: "No, I want to be with you."
Li Feng smiled bitterly: "Don't be willful. You can't help me here, and with the two of us here, it's easy to alert the other party and make the other party aware. Then it will be harder to catch the other party."
"If you let the other party attack you, it will be more difficult for me."
"On the contrary, I am here by myself. It is not easy for that person to deal with me. I am confident that I can definitely take him down. I will just take that person to the county government office when the time comes."
Li Yan said worriedly: "Are you sure nothing will happen?"
Li Feng said seriously: "Of course nothing will happen. With a beautiful girl like you waiting for me, how can I be willing to die?"
"Go...go to hell." Li Yan blushed, then leaned into Li Feng's arms: "You must be safe. As long as you get over this matter, no matter what you want, everyone will cooperate with you, okay?
