"What kind of monsters are these?" Lu Zhengzhi already had a vague answer in his mind, but he didn't dare to admit it.
Old Chen sighed deeply, his eyes also revealing reluctance.
Most of these monks are young people from the Lu family. They follow the Lu family's main teachings and get along well with the miners and Old Chen in the mine.
Old Chen treats these young people of the Lu family as if they were his own children and nephews.
"Master Zhengzhi, don't you already know? These are all cultivators from my Lu family."
"How, how could this happen!" Lu Zhengzhi clenched his fists, anger spreading in his heart.
Damn it, he had long known that the world of immortal cultivation was dark and cruel, but he never expected that such a weird thing would happen.
It is also very likely that this is an attack by the Demonic Cult on the Lu family.
Using strange means to transform young and promising monks into these horrific monsters is not only a physical blow to people, but also a psychological torture to them.
"Most of them are monks who went to Yunmeng Mountain to develop resources."
Old Chen clenched his fists. "It's said that the virus is spreading across almost every resource development site of the Lu family in Yunmeng Mountain."
"Some are vines from trees. They will silently pierce the monks' skin and inject the toxins into their bodies."
"Some of them are just mushroom buns. When they burst, they are blown into their noses by the wind. It's impossible to defend against them."
"The only thing to be thankful for now is that toxins like this one with obvious mutations can at least be identified and expelled through spiritual power."
"So many of us were affected because we initially didn't know what it was and simply thought it was a new natural aura generated by the great changes in Yunmeng Mountain."
"Now that their mutations are happening so frequently, everyone has become alert. The order prohibiting contact has been issued. The clan leader and his men will arrive in about half an hour."
"Before that, Master Zhengzhi, please take charge of the situation and try to prevent the spread of panic. At the same time, please suppress those members of your tribe who are about to be completely overtaken by the virus and try to save their lives. In the future, we may be able to find a way to restore them to their original state."
Lu Zhengzhi took a deep breath and looked at his fellow clansmen who were lying on the bed with painful expressions and had not yet undergone complete changes. His expression was grim.
"This is such a dirty and sinister game!" His gritting teeth showed his anger.
"Master Zhengzhi, you must stay calm. Only by staying calm can our Lu family have a chance to turn defeat into victory." Old Chen consoled.
Lu Zhengzhi chuckled: "Calm? Of course I am calm enough."
"But now we don't even know where the enemy is, and we don't know how to relieve the suffering of our own people. Even more people will be infected silently and continue to suffer. How can I stay calm?!"
Old Chen was speechless.
It was originally thought that with the development of Yunmeng Mountain, the Lu family would surely prosper, surpassing the Bai family in one fell swoop and becoming the strongest immortal cultivation family in Liuhe County.
But I didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen now.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this was a dirty deed done specifically against the Lu family, but no one knew where the other party was hiding or what methods they would use.
"Master! I know what these are."
Lu Baicao's voice came from behind Lu Zhengzhi and Lao Chen.
Lu Zhengzhi's expression changed slightly. He glanced at Lu Baicao and Lu Anying, and after confirming that they had not entered the tent and were not at risk of infection, he did not say anything more.
He walked out of the tent.
"Baicao, do you know what these are?"
Lu Zhengzhi's voice was a little urgent.
Lu Baicao nodded. "The Poisonous Demonic Scripture mentions these three strange toxins, but it only gives a general introduction in the appendix and doesn't provide a solution."
Disappointment appeared in Lu Zhengzhi's eyes.
But Lu Baicao continued, "But I just quietly captured the poisonous aura around those three blood men, and found that it was the same aura as that of Senior Liushuang whom I encountered in Yunmeng Mountain today."
"That is to say, the illnesses suffered by the tribe members today must be closely related to that elder. It can even be said that he was the one who caused it."
There was a firmness in Lu Baicao's tone.
As a poison genius picked from thousands of people in the Lu family, she was indeed confident and certain of this.
Lu Zhengzhi's eyes lit up: "That's right! Since we don't have a way to detoxify, then the person who poisoned it must have a way to detoxify it."
Thinking of this, Lu Zhengzhi's anger turned into a fierce fighting spirit: "Old Chen!"
"I will be leaving the camp shortly. During the half hour that the patriarch arrives, any changes in the camp will be handled by you."
Old Chen looked hesitant.
After all, Lao Chen is just an ordinary mortal without spiritual power. Even though he has been in the Lu family's spiritual mine for many years, the gap between cultivators and mortals is huge.
Lu Zhengzhi handed his badge to Lao Chen, then said in a deep voice: "From now on, Lao Chen is me. All Lu family cultivators in the original mine will obey Lao Chen's orders."
"Yes!!!" all the monks shouted in unison.
Lu Zhengzhi turned around and was about to walk out of the camp. He wanted to use special means to find the man's trace at the place where Lu Baicao was attacked and chase him.
But just as he reached the camp gate, a female cultivator rushed over and knelt before Lu Zhengzhi: "Brother Zhengzhi!"
The female cultivator cried miserably, "Brother, are you going to abandon us?"
Lu Zhengzhi said seriously, "I will never give up on you."
The female cultivator's expression gradually softened, but she continued crying, "My brother is currently locked up in a tent. He has become a tree man. As his elder sister, I feel deeply saddened to see him like this."
"If you, my brother, don't give up on us, then you should find a way to detoxify us."
"I hope my brother will learn how to detoxify and save my brother. Otherwise, I will never forgive myself in this life!"
The sobbing and wailing sounds are heartbreaking.
The murderous intent in Lu Zhengzhi's eyes grew heavier, and he clenched his fists: "Don't worry, I will not only save your brother, but also make the person behind this pay the price they deserve!"
The Bai family...Frost Barbarians...The Heavenly Demon Cult...
Lists of names flashed through Lu Zhengzhi's eyes, and eventually, they all turned into murderous intent in his heart, so fierce and cold.
If he really finds the mastermind behind this, no matter who he is, he will make him pay a terrible price!
