"Bugs are everywhere, but most of them are invisible to the naked eye. Except for people like us, only certain people who resonate with certain bugs can see them."

Shirazawa picked up an invisible thing from the potted plant and put it in the palm of his hand.

"They are the closest to the origin of life, so they can also change the origin of life."

Wu Mi read Shirazawa's lips, but suddenly felt that the existence of worms was not so unacceptable, once, once...

The vague sense of familiarity made Wu Mi startled.

Has he ever seen a "worm"?

"What, petrified?"

Shirazawa shook his head, "The pharmacist is just incidental. My real identity is an insect master. I live with insects and study insects. Most of the magical medicines rumored outside are some kind of insects."

"Your body has decayed too badly. Only by drinking all the wine can you regain your life, but...you will lose your identity as a human if you drink those things that do not belong to humans."

"Out of human identity?"

The information that Wu Mi received in the past was not as much as what he received in Shirazawa today. He never thought about how to continue living without the identity of a human.

"Don't worry, I don't have light wine here, and light wine is not so easy to get."

Shirazawa clenched his fist, and seemed to hold an invisible ball between his thumb and forefinger, "The only thing I can help you is temporarily prolong your life. The worm in my hand is something I have studied for three years." "Scale insect" usually mimics plants and hides in dark places, but it is amazing that it can balance the pain of people. "

Wu Mi stared at Shirazawa's hand, but what he saw was still only a cloud of air.

"Scales, if one side is heavy, the other side will be tilted up, and after the scale insect resonates, it can balance your pain to another person. If you use it, the disease will not worsen, and it will remain at a stable level. state."

"What price do you need to sell this worm to me?"

Wu Mi clenched his palms tightly, and then he was relieved, this worm...he can find a servant to bear it instead of looking for nothing.

Shizawa didn't care what Wu Mi was thinking, he chuckled, "I only have one condition, since you said that the one outside is your friend, then there is nothing wrong with asking him to help you bear the burden. By the way, this worm needs to be alive to survive. Play a role."

"Swallow a bug alive?" Wu Can's face turned pale again.

"It's not for you to eat it, it's just for you to stay."

"Wu Mi, promise him!"

Bai knocked open the door of Shirazawa's house, and yelled loudly at Shirazawa regardless of Shirazawa's ugly face.

"This bug..."

Even if Wu Mi can't be completely cured, the effect of relieving most of the pain is already something he dreams of, but Shirazawa's request is that the pain must be borne in vain.

A sheet of thin ice condensed under Bai's bamboo hat, and through the ice, he saw the scale insect in Shirazawa's hand.

The white soft-bodied creature the size of half a fist swayed slowly with two soft horns on its head, and there were some purple spots on its body, looking gentle and harmless.

He heard all the conversation just now, and Shirazawa's tone and demeanor also proved that he was not lying. This magical "worm" can really help Wu Mi relieve pain and illness!

"Trust me, Wu Mi."

Bai's hand held Wu Mi's icy hand, and also gave him strength with his voice.

"I believe in you." Wu Mi pursed his lips, "Mr. Shizawa, what should I do?"

"Extend your hand, young master."

Shirazawa glared at Bai, and gently placed the worm in Wu Mi's palm.

There was a slight tingling sensation in the palm of his hand, as if he had been stung by a fine needle, and then he saw a white soft-bodied creature with purple spots swishing to the back of his hand.

"Okay."

Shirazawa nodded in satisfaction.

"This is the end?"

Wu Mi tentatively touched the worm lying on the back of his hand. The skin under his hand was still flat, as usual, and he didn't even feel the scale worm walking on the skin.

The scale worm that was touched moved its position again, and wanted to swim up the arm along the back of Wu Mi's hand, but stopped when it reached the blood line of Wu Mi's wrist, and retracted Wu Mi's palm again.

"In the next few days, the scale bug will slowly adjust your state to balance the weight. You guys go away and don't come to me again."

Shirazawa has already seen that this person and monster will not be separated in a short time, and he will not say more. Anyway, as long as the young master does not come, he will not see the monster wearing a bamboo hat.

"The light wine thing..."

"Now that you have resonated with the worm, as long as you see it, you will understand that the glowing river underground is the source of light wine."

"Remember, if you drink it, you will never be able to turn back into a human again."

After Shirazawa finished his last sentence, he pushed Wu Mi and Bai out of the door together, and then closed the door with a bang.

"Don't come to me again, old man."

Bai pulled Wumi back to the kingdom of infinity together with their ox cart.

"Bai, what are we going to do next?"

Wu Cang looked at the scale worm who was confined by the blood line and could only move in his hand, still feeling a little uncomfortable.

"We'll stay around here for a while, if something's wrong, go to Shirazawa immediately."

"it is good."

In fact, this scale insect is not so weird after looking at it for a long time, and even the two soft tentacles on its head look a bit like a rabbit.

During the few days when Scale Chong lived on Wu Mi's body, his body, which was weak after walking a few steps, became lighter and lighter, his chest was always painful, and his throat seemed to be completely recovered, and he basically didn't notice any abnormalities.

Wu Mi felt completely different from the past. Although he was thin but not weak, his heart beat fast but it didn't have the usual load.

"Bai, how do you feel?"

There was uncontrollable joy in his eyes, but that joy was reduced a lot because of the thought of sharing the pain with Shiro.

"I can feel some, but it's nothing to my body, don't worry."

Bai knew what Wu Mi was thinking, but it was just a pain in his chest, and stagnant breathing was nothing to him, "Since your health is much better, we don't have to worry so much about the next journey."

"it is good."

"Don't think too much about the light wine, let's find out and make a decision."

Bai hugged Wu Mi, although his body had added some small load, but his mood was inexplicably relaxed.

Wu Mi didn't think anything was wrong, he raised his hand and looked at the scale insect that was still imprisoned by the blood line, "Bai, there are more and more purples on its body."

"Except for less and less white, there seems to be no problem."

Bai stretched out his hand to poke the scale worm, which was mostly purple, and the scale worm hid in Wu Mi's palm.

"Let it be."

Having seen this bug for nearly a month, Wu Mi no longer rejects it psychologically as he did at the beginning, and sometimes even forgets its existence.

Wu Mi and Bai sat on the ox cart together, Wanli was more spiritual than ordinary oxen, as long as the direction was determined, there was no need to specially drive him, he would keep walking slowly.

Although Wu Mi's disease still exists, it no longer affects normal life.

Because they were looking for the "glowing river" underground, they spent more time on the road.

It's much better to look for something when you can see hope than to wait anxiously for the countdown of life alone in the obstetric home with no hope.

"What if the snow covers the river and we can't see it?"

Every time Wu Mi walked for a while, he would lift the curtain of the carriage and glance at the snow behind him.

"It's a river you know when you see it."

Bai put Wu Mi's hand on his own, even if the burden on his body was relieved, Wu Mi still tended to get cold hands.

When it comes to the possible new life and getting rid of the illness that has been entangled for more than ten years, the mood always becomes urgent.

Feeling the warmth from the white palm, Wu Mi slowly spoke out her plan.

"New Year's Day is approaching, and we will stay in the town ahead for a while. The river should be in a place with few people. We will replenish some food in the town. After New Year's Day, the snow should melt, and we will go to some inaccessible places. .”

"Just do as you say."

Bai squinted his eyes, resisting the desire to yawn, "Wu Mi, last time you said in front of Shizawa that we are friends, but it's just a relationship of friends, we won't spend New Year's Day together."

"Can't our relationship survive New Year's Day together?"

Wu Mi was taken aback by the words, he didn't expect that Bai was still thinking about what happened at that time.

New Year's Day is a very grand holiday. Even when the Ubayashiki family can't go out, he will change into brand new clothes and listen to the ringing bell of the temple.

"Of course we're not friends..."

Bai was not satisfied with the friendship Wu Can said, he wanted to clarify the feelings between them that friends should never have.

But at this time, there will be mice without eyes outside.

"Wu Mi, you wait for me in the car."

Bai patted Wu Mi's palm, turned around and got out of the car.

The last trace of white on the unavoidable worm in the palm of Wu Can's hand also disappeared, and the pure purple flesh worm tremblingly moved to the bloody wrist, split open quietly, and disappeared.

"Robbery!"

With a gloomy face, he looked at the robbers who surrounded the ox cart, and before they could react, he knocked them all down at a speed that was hard for the naked eye, and then got back into the cart.

"Did something happen?"

Wu Mi looked at Bai worriedly. Although he couldn't hear what happened outside, he could smell blood in the air.

Not a good smell of blood.

"There are a few wolves outside, and I've already...vomited."

"Bai, what's wrong with you?"

He supported him with a worried expression on his face.

Bai gritted his teeth and forcibly endured the feeling of chest tightness and nausea, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"There are some……."

"Uh-"

This time it wasn't Bai who was retching. He was sitting on the bullock cart with a cold face, but a deep red gap suddenly opened on the arm under his sleeve, and the gap turned into a mouth full of fangs, sticking out his tongue and vomiting. mouth.

"Let's go back to the infinite country first."

With a blank face, he patted back the mouth that had torn his sleeves and even spit out a small amount of mucus to wet his clothes, but another mouth was bulging out on his shoulder, making the sound of vomiting.
