Chapter 134
In just a blink of an eye, everything in the hall, including the hall pillars, bluestone floor tiles and walls, was covered with patches of green mold with fine hairs.
The bronze vessel fragments and gold, silver and jade wares that were blown out of the Nine Dragon Golden Coffin were also corroded by the green mold in an instant, and the gold on the surface fell off, covered with a layer of dark green rust, and all kinds of dazzling gems and jade wares lost their original luster and became dull.
It really seemed like an ancient plague had come, and wherever it spread, it was a dead place!
Chen Yibai looked at the scene in front of him and smelled the indescribable smell of mold and decay in the air. He was sure that this was not an illusion, but real, so the Fa Qiu Seal was of no use here.
The evil art of the old ancestor Gu Chen to control the plague was really vicious and fierce!
Moreover, this plague was not only extremely lethal and spreading, but also extremely corrosive, and it could break anything.
Chen Yibai quickly looked down at the bluestone floor tiles covered with a layer of mold under his feet, which suddenly looked like a layer of moss.
Although it is not certain whether the plague will spread through the air, the horrible corrosiveness has just been seen.
So even if he wears shoes, it is useless. The whole hall is covered with mold, like a poison cave. There is nowhere to hide and no way to avoid it.
Unless he can float in the air like the old ancestor Gu Chen!
Obviously this is a bit bullshit. It is definitely impossible for the body to float. Only the soul can float.
So while the soles of his shoes have not been corroded yet, Chen Yibai’s first thought is to evacuate here as soon as possible!
If the soles of his shoes are corroded by the plague, I am afraid that he will really have to blow out the lights and pull out the wax here.
However, just as Chen Yibai was about to turn around and move, a hysterical scream suddenly came from the foreign mercenaries. All the mercenaries, like the black man who was infected with the plague, first emitted black smoke all over their bodies as if they were inexplicably combusting. After the clothes on their bodies were corroded, the exposed skin began to rapidly fester and swell with pustules...
As long as they are infected with this horrible plague, they will definitely die!
It seems that these foreign mercenaries have really become "one-day tours".
But at the same time, Chen Yibai noticed that the combat boots with rubber soles worn by the foreign mercenaries were not corroded by the plague first.
That is to say, the plague did not spread from the feet to the body first.
It seems that this plague is not as simple as imagined, and there must be other strange ways of transmission!
Chen Yibai immediately realized that something was wrong. He wanted to move but stopped immediately. At the same time, he shouted to Yan Xuefei: "Don't move! Stand still!"
Yan Xuefei was about to run away after seeing that all the foreign mercenaries she brought with her had abandoned her and defected. She also saw that the hall was full of horrible mold.
But after seeing that all the foreign mercenaries had been infected with the plague without any warning and hearing Chen Yibai's shouting, she quickly straightened her body and subconsciously retracted her foot that was about to step out. She looked at Chen Yibai and asked nervously: "Captain Chen, what's going on? How did they get infected with the plague?"
It seems that Yan Xuefei's IQ is also online. She also saw from those mercenaries that the transmission route of the plague was very unusual.
Although Yan Xuefei didn't know, he seemed to have seen something from Chen Yibai's tone.
Yan Xuefei almost forgot about the lieutenant Chen beside her. After all, he was the descendant of the lieutenant who knew everything about astronomy and geography, was proficient in yin and yang, and could easily master all kinds of yin and yang secrets!
So Yan Xuefei placed all her hopes on Chen Yibai.
Then again, Chen Yibai received a 50 million advance payment, and in a sense, he was also employed by their Shending Group.
Chen Yibai looked down at the uncorroded sneakers under his feet again, and then thought about what had just happened. His brain was working quickly and he had already guessed it in his heart.
In order to confirm his guess, Chen Yibai looked at the pillars covered with a layer of mold next to him, frowned deeply and thought for a few seconds, then made up his mind and stretched out his finger to touch it.
Yan Xuefei was shocked when she saw Chen Yibai's abnormal behavior. She was about to speak to stop him, but Chen Yibai's hand had already touched it.
However, what surprised Yan Xuefei was that when Chen Yibai's fingers touched the mold on the temple pillar, there was no reaction or sign of plague.
Chen Yibai looked at the green mold on his fingers, and his inner guess was also verified most accurately: "This is not an ordinary plague, it is a sword plague that can only be transmitted through metal!"
It was mentioned before that plague isIt is a kind of bacterial virus that can be transmitted.
In ancient times, the most common one was rat plague, which was spread by bacteria and viruses parasitizing rats. There were also similar chicken plague and dog plague.
But plague does not necessarily parasitize and spread only on living things.
It is said that in the ancient Conferred God period, the Plague Emperor Haotian, who was in charge of the plague in the three realms, had a magic weapon called the "Finger Plague Sword".
This finger plague sword does not kill people, but it is a very evil magic weapon that can spread sword plague and make the opponent's magic weapon like an animal plague. At the least, the magic weapon fails, and at the worst, it directly rots!
Just now, the five foreign mercenaries were infected with the plague just by pulling the anchor hook steel rope.
As for the foreign mercenaries who ran away, it seemed that they were poisoned without any signs, but in fact, they stepped on some fragments of bronze vessels with plague.
These all fit the characteristics of the "sword plague".
That is to say, the green mold in this hall is not toxic if it comes into direct contact with the skin, but once it sticks to metal, whether it is gold, silver, copper, iron, or alloy, it will produce plague!
As for why this Gu Chen Patriarch can spread the sword plague without the finger plague sword in his hand, this is not yet certain.
However, it is not ruled out that he is the disciple of the plague emperor Haotian.
It may also be related to his Fengshen Xuanzhu that stores his spirit and soul.
And then again, if Gu Chen Patriarch really had the finger plague sword in his hand at this time, it would not be that the whole hall was covered with mold first, and then stuck to metal to produce plague.
Instead, when the sword was swung, all the metal on his body was directly infected with the sword plague and produced plague. Even the plague produced by a small earring can be fatal in an instant!
"Sword plague that can only be spread through metal?"
Yan Xuefei's eyebrows twisted into a rope in surprise after hearing what Chen Yibai said. Although she had never heard of the term "sword plague", after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was indeed just as Chen Yibai said, this plague could only be spread through metal.
