Chapter 816: Parasites From Another World
With the departure of the man in black robe and the closing of the space crack, calm finally returned to the battlefield.
But the mess in front of them made everyone feel heavy.
The collapsed buildings, wounded and wounded soldiers, and the huge gluttonous body all showed the brutality of this battle.
Yun Youzi took a deep breath and turned to Li Yang and Zhang Hui:
"Little friends, are you okay?"
Li Yang shook his head:
"Thank you for your concern, senior. We are all fine."
Zhang Hui said a little tiredly:
"It's just a bit exhausting, just take a rest."
Yunyouzi nodded, then looked at the huge Taotie corpse, frowning:
"This thing...is really tricky."
Li Yang followed his gaze and couldn't help but sigh:
"Yeah, I didn't expect to encounter a monster of this level here."
At this moment, Zhou Mu came over with several guards.
His armor was stained with blood, and it was obvious that he had personally fought in the battle just now.
"Thank you three immortals for your help!"
Zhou Mu bowed deeply,
"If you hadn't been here, I'm afraid this place would have suffered a great disaster."
Yun Youzi waved his hand:
"Sir Zhou Mu, there is no need to be polite. This is our duty."
"Besides, if you hadn't led troops to support us in time, we might not have been able to win."
Zhou Mu smiled bitterly when he heard this:
"I'm afraid my small amount of troops won't have much effect."
"It takes the magic power of the three immortals to subdue those monsters."
Li Yang took over the conversation:
"There's no need to be so modest."
"As the saying goes, if we don't work together, the three of us alone may not be able to deal with such a situation."
Zhou Mu nodded and then asked:
"By the way... I wonder if the three immortals have ever found out where the man in black robes came from?"
"Why are you plotting evil against me, Daxia?"
Yun Youzi, Li Yang and Zhang Hui looked at each other, all hesitant.
After all, it has to do with time travel, which is really hard to explain.
Finally, Yunyouzi spoke:
"This matter involves a wide range of things, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain clearly in a short while."
"But Mr. Zhou Mu can rest assured that the man in black robe will not come again for the time being."
Although Zhou Mu was still a little confused, he didn't ask any more questions. He just expressed his gratitude again and invited the three of them to rest in the Yamen.
The three of them declined Zhou Mu's kindness, saying that they wanted to deal with the mess on the battlefield first.
The state pastor did not force himself and went with his men to appease the people.
After Zhou Mu left, Zhang Huicai asked in a low voice:
"So... we really don't have to tell them the truth?"
Yunyouzi shook his head:
"The matter of time travel is too unbelievable. I'm afraid it would be difficult for them to understand it, let alone..."
He glanced at the Taotie corpse and continued:
"If they know that such a terrifying monster will appear in the future, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary panic."
Li Yang nodded:
"That's true...but this corpse..."
Yun Youzi pondered for a moment and said:
"We have to find a way to deal with it. If it is left in this era, there is no guarantee that it will not cause any changes."
Zhang Hui asked:
"What should we do with it? We can't just burn it, right?"
"Burning is definitely not possible." Li Yang shook his head and said,
"Not to mention that Taotie's whole body is composed of the power of chaos, and he is immune to ordinary fire burning."
"A monster of this level is not a mortal thing in itself. If it is forcibly burned, it may cause an even greater disaster."
Yunyouzi thought for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up:
"So... I have an idea."
He took out a jade pendant from his arms and saw that the jade pendant was engraved with complex runes and emitted a faint light.
"This is..." Li Yang said in surprise,
"The Golden Crow relic that I picked up before?"
Yunyouzi nodded:
"Yes, this object is transformed from the Golden Crow. Although it is not of high quality, it is fortunately large enough."
"Although it cannot be refined, it should be able to hold this corpse."
As he spoke, he threw the jade pendant high.
The jade pendant quickly enlarged in the air, and in an instant it turned into a light door with a radius of about ten feet.
"Give me a hand."
Yun Youzi looked at the two people beside him.
"Let's work together to get this body in."
The three of them worked together and used their magic power to slowly lift the huge Taotie corpse and send it into the light gate.
As the last tail disappeared into the light gate, the jade pendant shrank again and fell back into Yun Youzi's hand.
"Huh..." Zhang Hui breathed a sigh of relief, "It's finally solved."
Li Yang frowned and said:
"The problem is... although the body has been temporarily collected, it is not a long-term solution."
Yunyouzi nodded:
"I know what you're worried about."
"Don't worry, when we return to our own time, we will have a way to deal with it completely."
The three of them were talking when they suddenly heard a noise in the distance.
"What happened again?"
Zhang Hui asked warily.
Li Yang squinted his eyes and saw a group of people talking around something on the street in the distance.
"Let's go take a look."
Yunyouzi said, taking the lead and walking over.
Li Yang and Zhang Chen followed closely behind.
When they squeezed into the crowd, they couldn't help but gasp.
I saw the corpse of a monster lying on the ground...
It was a giant snake with a crocodile head. It was obviously one of the monsters that ran out of the space crack just now.
"What...what is this?"
someone asked in horror.
"It must be a monster!"
Another person said,
"Didn't you see the big battle just now?"
"But..." someone else said doubtfully,
"Didn't those immortals take care of the monsters?"
"How come there are still fish that slipped through the net?"
Everyone was discussing it, and the atmosphere seemed a bit tense.
Seeing this, Yun Youzi took a step forward and said loudly:
"You don't need to panic."
"This is indeed one of those monsters just now. It must have escaped in the chaos."
"But this thing is already dead, so there's nothing to worry about."
Hearing what Yun Youzi said, everyone felt a little relieved.
But someone still asked:
"Sage, what should we do with this body?"
Yun Youzi was about to answer, but Li Yang suddenly pulled his sleeve and whispered:
"Something's not right, we need to check it carefully."
Yun Youzi was stunned for a moment and then understood what Li Yang meant.
He nodded and said to everyone:
"Everyone, please be patient and let us take a closer look."
With that said, he motioned for Li Yang and Zhang Hui to come forward together.
The three of them gathered around the body and examined it carefully.
After a moment, Li Yang suddenly pointed at a wound on the monster and said:
"Look here."
Yun Youzi and Zhang Hui took a closer look and saw some strange black substance on the wound.
"This is..." Zhang Hui said doubtfully.
Li Yang said in a deep voice:
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be some kind of parasite."
Yunyouzi's expression changed:
"You mean..."
