Chapter: 3046

Ma Cheng Xing shook his head and muttered three words: "Eat human brain!"

When Ma Ke heard those three words, he suddenly felt a wave of nausea, and exclaimed: "Eat human brain?! This...gosh...this is too disgusting!..."

Ma Cheng Xing nodded slightly and said: "Look at that security guard just now. Do you think these insects will be able to control his corpse?"

Ma Ke shook his head: "I...don't know...It feels like this is very unbelievable, or even unscientific. It's not like the Eight Trigrams of Yi Jing, where everything seems mysterious at first glance, but once you grasp its essence, you'll find that there are actually clues to follow..."

When Ma Cheng Xing looked at Ma Ke, he explained: "You think these insects are so unbelievable and unscientific, but in fact, it's very scientific."

As he continued to explain: "Insects feed on human brain tissue, and they definitely need fresh brain tissue. This means that the person is probably just deceased, and although their brain has been consumed by insects and lost its entire central nervous system, their bodily functions won't immediately lose life signs, just like a brain-dead person who often still has heartbeats and blood circulation."

"Insects are magical because after they devour human brain tissue, they can temporarily take control of the person's central nervous system and then perform simple manipulation on the human body."

"Just like that security guard over there, he was controlled by insects to walk around, but since the person had already died and their muscles were constantly stiffening, it looked like his movements were very stiff."

"You see him only walking, opening doors, and waving his hand in basic actions, but he won't talk. This is mainly because insects themselves are unable to perform deep manipulation on him, but can only do some simple actions under the driving of their host's will."

Ma Ke carefully looked at that security guard's back, quickly asking: "Grandpa, can insects control this corpse forever?"

"Of course not." Ma Cheng Xing said sternly: "Not even mentioning how this corpse will gradually stiffen and decompose. Just say that after insects devour this person's brain, they'll immediately enter a hibernation state at most, and can only last for a month."

Ma Ke exclaimed: "If it has to eat again within a month, doesn't that mean it would kill another person every month?!"

Ma Cheng Xing spoke coldly: "Killing one person per month is still the case when they enter hibernation status. If someone keeps feeding them and letting them go around killing, who knows how many days it would take before they need to eat again...?"

"Mac Ke's face turned pale with shock as he exclaimed: 'This... this each insect behind, is a bloody human life! I've never heard of anything more evil than this...!'"

Ma Cheng Xing sighed and said: "That's because you haven't seen enough, there are many things that are even more evil than insects."

As they spoke, the father-son duo walked quickly and soon reached the cemetery deep in the mountains.

At this moment, a lean old man was sitting cross-legged on an empty plot of land at the half-mountain level.

This was Xu Fan Year.

Seeing Ma Cheng Xing and Mac Ke approach, Xu Fan Year opened his mouth to say: "Ma Laoren, I've long admired your great name."

Ma Cheng Xing hastily bowed: "Xu Dashi's great name, I too have heard it for a long time. It is said that Xu Dashi shook England and half of Europe, and Chinese people all over the world look up to him with reverence; today, I am honored to meet you, your demeanor is indeed not ordinary!"

Xu Fan Year's mouth twitched into an awkward smile before he continued: "Ma Laoren, bringing you here today was somewhat impertinent. The main reason was that my insect had gone three days without food and was really dying of hunger, so I brought it out to find some food and beg your forgiveness!"

Ma Cheng Xing listened to Xu Fan Year downplay the killing incident and bring up the topic of feeding insects, his heart had already turned away from this person to an extreme degree.

However, due to face-saving and the other party's strong attacking nature, he only smiled awkwardly and avoided discussing the insect's food, opening his mouth to say: "This place is deserted, it's actually a good place to talk about serious matters."

Xu Fan Year nodded slightly, looking gloomy as he said: "I thought this place would be a great spot for my insect to feast once and for all. Who would have thought that such a huge cemetery would only have one security guard? I bet the developers of this graveyard have gone crazy!"

Ma Cheng Xing's heart skipped a beat. JrNovels.com
