C259 Secrets and Gu become one

Beautiful fantasies were always easily broken by others, and Zheng Wuxie had already played the role of a bitch well at this time.

"Ideas are always full, but reality is hard." Zheng Wuxie said in a seemingly deep voice, "Don't think about that kind of thing here for now, it's too unrealistic. Do you know where the Gu King is? Even if we know where it is, how are we going to get it out, like something vital to the White Temples? Furthermore, since she could be considered a Gu King, then she must be countless times stronger than the other Gu worms. How could she deal with them? Who had the means to subdue that thing? Also! First of all, we have to think of how to solve the problem on your body. If we have to take ten thousand steps back, even if that thing doesn't have any destructive power, how should we use it? Who would understand? Who knows? "

The few consecutive questions made us feel a little foolish. Zhao Qi was stunned for a few seconds before he covered his face and sighed. Then, I started to knock on the table as I was used to thinking about it. After experiencing so many things, we have finally reached this place that we have always been trying to reach. Therefore, the joy of arriving here made me forget about the difficulties that we have to face.

Zheng Wuxie opened his mouth again, "This is only considering our problem, we can still consider the seven or nine brothers now."

"Consider me? "What for?" Zhao QIu looked at Zheng Wuxie in a daze.

"Are you stupid!?" I am sure that once we get that Gu King into our hands, they will definitely discover something of incomparable importance. I don't believe that they don't have any warning measures. After we obtain the Gu King, we will definitely run. At this time, as long as the white seedlings have the intention to investigate, they will definitely know that we are with you. And now that we are in someone else's territory, what do you think they will do? If they were to target your sect, what would your sect do? "

The atmosphere turned silent. These questions had indeed caught us off guard. It was only then that I realised that the most difficult test seemed to have just begun and the waves that we had experienced previously were just a trivial prelude.

"You've gone silly!" Zheng Wuxie crossed his legs, looking extremely cocky with each shake.

It was at this time that the closed door was suddenly pushed open. We were startled and immediately stood up to look at the door.

"Little kids, you don't know your place, but you actually dared to try to harm the White Seedling Gu King. I really don't know what to say to you two." "The old man was very rude. She walked over, pulled out a chair, and sat down." I was just wondering why Jiu Youzi would ask me about the White Seedling Gu King just now. So the reason is because of this. "

"Second Grandpa." Zhao QIu gave an awkward shout, serving the old man a cup of hot water before placing it in front of him.

"You even know that I'm your second grandpa!" Before my big brother left, he repeatedly reminded me to take care of you here, saying that I can't let you suffer grievances. I say, Ninth Child, have I never wronged you in any way? " The slovenly old man had a fiery temper. As he spoke, he knocked the table loudly, "When my Zhao Family comes to your side, you and your father will be the direct disciples!" Not thinking about how to save your little life, but instead, doing such important and dangerous things all day long. Do you know how difficult the situation for my Zhao Family is right now?

The old man's eyes widened, he started speaking as if he wasn't afraid of us. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he actually said something that seemed to be a secret to me, something that shouldn't be known by outsiders.

"Your grandfather was outside for dozens of years, and when he left, he finally thought things through before he allowed you to return to the Deadqi! When you came here, I told you a lot, did I not tell you that Deadqi was originally my Zhao Family? Didn't I tell you about my Zhao Family? Didn't I tell you that the members of the Corpse Chasing Branch are suffering for my Zhao Family? I feel guilty towards my fellow sect members, so I choose to turn a blind eye to everything your senior brothers do for you. As long as they don't overdo it, I will not interfere, but don't you understand the painstaking efforts of your third martial uncle!? Come back here, sit down, and accompany this Jiu Wazi in his thoughts! "There's nothing shameful about that. My Zhao Family's people need to know how to be grateful, and we need to learn that this life is not only his own, but also many people's!"

Hearing the old man of the Zhao Family speak, Zheng Wuxie and I tactfully got up and prepared to leave. These things weren't things that we should hear, I suddenly had the right idea, and knowing too much isn't a good thing. However, this weirdo seemed to have said it out in front of us. At the same time, Zhao QIu's expression had turned ugly.

"Ugh …" Zheng Wuxie and I were both frozen. Leaving at this time is not something to stay but it is also something to be embarrassed about. This old man is really something, we are all men, why would a man make things difficult for a man, especially an old man who makes things difficult for a young man!

"Keep it!" The Old Master did not speak. Zhao QIu was silent for a moment, then said something to us. In this short period of time, his voice had actually become a little hoarse.

I suddenly realized that after reaching the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range, Zhao Que might have learned a lot of stories that would have made him choose to avoid facing them, but he was also a slippery fellow. This slovenly old man had finally caught me this time and had him reflect on it.

"Then keep it!" I pressed Zheng Wuxie, and let him sit with me. Zheng Wuxie was unwilling, but he still sat down, and only felt as though he was sitting on pins and needles, with his butt slightly touching the side of the chair.

"I really don't want to know so many things. Why must you let me know?" Zheng Wuxie muttered, I glared at him, only this guy could do such a thing and ruin the atmosphere.

After this incident, the old man's temper slowly subsided, and even his speech became a lot gentler as it began to carry a serious tone. You might not know who said that about you coming back to take over the Sect Leader's position, but now I will clearly tell you, this is something your Third Martial Uncle said on purpose for his own disciples to hear! He wants you to either stay in the Deadqi like me, and become an elder for the rest of your life, or directly drive you away so that you cannot meddle in the affairs of the Deadqi. He would rather let his disciples break the rule of the sect master by themselves, and not let my Zhao Family people sit in that seat again! Do you know what his intentions were? Originally, the position of the Sect Leader in our Corpse Faction belonged to your grandfather. However, due to some other reasons, your grandfather left, so I am the only one in our family to take over! But my senior brothers, who are your martial uncles, went to all the trouble to put on an ugly face and fight for the position of Sect Leader. They thought that my junior martial brother didn't know, but how could the people of Zhao family not know! That's why I, Zhao Xuanzhi, have never dared to forget the good things that have happened to them in my entire life.

The old man became agitated as he spoke, but his words made me a little confused. 'They've gone through so much trouble to steal what belongs to your Zhao Family, do you really have to be grateful to them?' What kind of logic was this!

At this moment, I couldn't help but suspect that there was something wrong with the old man's head. However, his next words were like a slap to the face, causing me to feel a heartfelt respect towards this group of people, even if I only remembered it after many years.

"Everyone thinks that Sect Leader is fun!?" They all thought that the Sect Leader's position was highly sought after!? Ninth Child, do you know why we are so respectful to your Grand Master, your current Sect Leader? It's because he is willing to sit on the seat of the Sect Leader without any hesitation, that he is helping our Zhao Family bear the burden, and not letting our Zhao Family bloodline take that seat once again, is to let the entire Deadqi share the taboo in the bloodline that we have offended. Your grandfather knows, and I know as well! Now you should know, ever since our Zhao Family stopped taking that position, our family has always owed everyone in the Deadqi! In this generation, they have shared too much with us. Otherwise, my Zhao Family would have died a long time ago … And that doll! " The old man looked at Zheng Wuxie and continued, "A dead man's rice is not so delicious. It's still too late for you guys to go back and build this place called Deadqi from the very beginning, just like my Zhao Family. My Zhao Family is getting more and more upset, and the later we grow, the more uneasy we will be. Jiu Jiu's grandfather almost died at that time, but my situation wasn't much better. If my martial uncles and senior brothers didn't discover it too early, the Zhao Family would have been wiped out by my generation! Jiu Youzi, let me tell you, the Sect Leader's position is a huge fire pit, whoever sits on it will be in trouble! Your uncle has been sitting in that position for decades, and now, he can't even sleep well at night. We brothers can take turns to keep watch for him, but it's not like we can! And now, not only him, but his descendants will more or less be affected as well, bringing disaster to our Zhao Family, and taking revenge on the Patriarch. When our Zhao Family ceases to be in that position, it will be a matter for the entire Deadqi, which means to say, your senior brothers are doing this because of us! They had shouldered a punishment that should not have been placed on them. As for what this punishment was, they would only know in their later years. Jiu Youzi, you have to cherish this life of yours. This life was snatched back for you by so many fellow sect members, it can be said that each of them gave this life to you! This is not only yours! Before your grandfather left, his soul came to find me and told me that he saw a glimmer of a chance to deal with this sort of thing in the dark. He said that should be referring to you, and that your talent is above his! Do you understand!? "

Silence. The atmosphere was too heavy, to the point where even Zheng Wuxie did not dare to make a sound at this moment. The little fellow who was well-intentioned had not made any disturbance from the start, and could only hear the light breathing of everyone present.

"I understand!" When the flame of the oil lamp flickered, and yet another tiny explosion sounded out, Zhao Qi lowered his head and spoke. His tone was laced with an indescribable feeling.

"It would be better if you truly understood!" Old Man Zhao Xuan shook his head and asked: "Then, do you still have any plans for the White Seedling Gu King?"

"Of course! That thing must be obtained, my brother must rely on him to save lives! "

"You understand now!" Zhao QIu's reply made old man Zhao Xuanzhe immediately glare angrily, "How can you be so insensible? Cough, cough …" "This is pissing me off, it's pissing me off!"

"Ol'ninth, forget it! Don't meddle in this matter, Wuxie and I will think of another way, but actually, we don't necessarily need to use their Gu King, there should be another way. " Old Man Zhao's reaction allowed me to immediately understand the reason why he allowed Zheng Wuxie and I to stay here and listen to them. This is not only to tell Zhao QIu, but also to let us know how heavy the responsibility of Zhao QIu's life is, so that I can voluntarily dispel the idea of letting him help out.

I didn't feel disgusted by such an attitude. Instead, I could feel from the old gramps the sincere affection he had for Zhao Jiu. He doesn't want Zhao Jiu to have any accidents while following us and doing this sort of thing. Compared to that, I am an outsider in his eyes, and he would think that ten of us are not even as important as a tenth of me.

"It's not just for my brother!" At this time, Zhao QIu's stubborn attitude surfaced again. He exchanged gazes with old man Zhao Xuanzhi, completely different from how he avoided the old man's gaze from the very beginning. "Second Grandpa, do you have a deep relationship with my grandfather?"

"Affection? We all have the same blood in our bodies... " A perplexed look flashed through Zhao Tianzhi's eyes when he heard what he said. "Isn't the relationship between blood relatives deep enough?"

He taught me how to read and write, called me miscellaneous studies, taught me Feng Shui, taught me how to watch the Zhao Family, all of these were taught to me by him. I watched his hair grow more and more white, watched his waist straighten to the point where he could only lie on a chair and struggle to speak. I watched his spirit grow from vigor to weakness until the last day when he could only wake up for two hours! When Zhao QIu mentioned Old Man Zhao, he somewhat couldn't control his emotions, so much so that he sounded like he was about to cry. Although a man looks bad crying when he's crying, it seems to me that crying for his family is a heroic sign. "I really don't know how I got here in the days he was gone! "I can't bear to part with him, I want to send him on his way. I let my father hold onto me while I want to follow him down to the end, but …"

Zhao QIu recounted what happened that day, then recounted how he met the old man from the Green Pine Monastery when he was working in the mountains a while ago, and recounted the old man's guesses. All of these things caused old man Zhao Xuanzhi to widen his eyes once more as he asked in disbelief, "How is it possible for such a godly person to exist in this world?"

"Even though it is hard to believe, it is indeed true!" Zhao Jiu was absolutely sure of it, and he explained how Elder Zhao respected that person, and how he met him when we went up to the Green Pine Monastery.

"Give me your hand. Use that power to move your hand." Zhao Xuanzhi still did not dare to believe it. When he heard that Zhao Qixing had gifted me the Longevity Fist and that I had cultivated a strange energy, he said to me without the slightest hesitation.

I handed my hand to the old man and slowly drew a bit of energy towards my palm. With a plop, the chair the old man was sitting on collapsed and he fell along with it, but he didn't seem to notice.

"Celestial skills, this is simply celestial skills!" Old Master Zhao Xuanzhi was stunned as he sat on the ground and muttered to himself. Zhao QIu shouted a few times before he came back to his senses.

"Even if it's like this, it's still impossible. I'm not too sure, you are simply gambling with your own life, do you know how dangerous it is to take the Gu?!" And since Big Brother is gone, is it worth it for you to do this? " The old tutor came back to his senses and still refused righteously.

However, Zhao QIu's face hardened. He gritted his teeth and said, "I can't be reincarnated without going to Yanzhou. There's nothing that's worth it or not! Grandfather is more important than anything, nothing is more important than him! "

"You!" Zhao Xuanzhi felt both helpless and touched by his anger, "Forget it! I just hope this will be the last time! "

"Second Grandpa, I'm sorry!" Zhao QIjiu said sincerely to old man Zhao Tianzhi, but the old man only waved his hand and sighed.

"Since all of you are so determined, I will not say anything. I just want to ask you all, do you all know what a Gu is?"

"What is a Gu?" This question stumped everyone. Zheng Wuxie tried to answer: "A parasite is a parasite?"

"What kind of shameful answer is this!" Old Man Zhao Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Listen carefully, I'll tell you what a Gu is! You don't even know what kind of thing it is, yet you dare to speak nonsense about taking the Gu King.

As for what a Gu is, around this question, Old Man Zhao Xuan told us a lot, and he even dabbled in the specific methods to raise the Gu. He said that deep in the mountains, forces that often interact with people from the Miao Family have to research this.

Gu has a capricious nature and unusual toxicity, so it is also called "poison Gu".

The Gu had to gather poisonous insects on the afternoon of the next day. This was the reason why the poisonous gas was the most concentrated on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Lunar New Year. Allegedly, there was a special literature that recorded that "Gu, more than the Dragon Bodies, when yang energy was at its peak, use medicine to cause illness and death." and mostly use snakes, insects, and centipedes. If you are unable to save them, you can kill them with a touch. "

The method of raising Gu in the legends was similar to the method contained in the first two chapters of "Tong Zhi". In Tongzhi, there were one hundred species of insects, and Miao Man only wanted twelve. Before raising the Gu, he had to clean up the main hall, bathe his family, old and young, and sincerely burn incense in front of the ancestor's throne to pray to the Gods and Demons. Then in the center of the main hall, dig a large hole, bury a large cylinder down, the cylinder must choose the lower abdomen large, easy to cover. The mouth of the cylinder shall be made as flat as the earth. On the day of Dragon Boat Festival, he would go to the area where the poisonous insects gathered, catch a dozen of them, place them in a vat, and then cover them with a lid. These reptiles are usually snakes, eels, centipedes, frogs, scorpions, earthworms, green caterpillars, mantises... In short, he didn't want anything that could fly, nor did he want anything that could run. He just wanted some poisonous reptiles. After the twelve reptiles were placed in a jar, the master and his family would pray once every night after they fell asleep and once every day before they got up. Pray for a year without interruption. Also, when raising Gu and praying, outsiders must not see it, or else the Gu will bite back and the whole family will die!

The process of the Gu worm's appearance was an extremely cruel and cruel process. In that sealed space where no light could be seen, after surviving and swallowing all the other poisons, the poison that changed color became the most basic kind of Gu worm. The old man said that these Gu worms all had a mysterious power on them, and they had very strong intelligence.

As for the specific division of Gu worms, it was possible that no one other than the Gu Matriarchs who raised them would know! But Old Man Zhao Xuan told us, he heard that the Gu King was a dragon Gu, and there are two types of Gu that stand at the top of the Gu's food chain. The dragon Gu and the Qilin Gu are respectively said to be two types of Gu, but these are all legends, other than the people at the core of seedling border, no one else has seen them.

"You must be careful of women in Miao Village, especially those whose manners are different from ordinary people! Remember, if a woman speaks to you, you have to see her eyes clearly and speak again. If there is cinnabar color in those eyes, you have to turn and leave without saying a word! That kind of person must be a Gu Nanny! "

"Is Gu Nanny that hard to deal with?" Could it be that they use their Gu whenever they see someone? " I asked Zhao Xuanzhi.

The old man laughed and said, "The Gu is the most bizarre, it's a type of mini Gu, many of them invisible to the naked eye! Legend has it that if a Gu wife lets out one of the Gu, she can protect herself for three years, one cow, one year, one tree, three months, if she doesn't release the Gu, the Gu nanny herself will get sick, if she doesn't let out the Gu for three years straight, the Gu worm won't be able to eat it, and it will harm the Gu storekeeper! Of course, there were only dogs that could not release Gu, Gu Nuo was afraid of dogs and she didn't eat dog meat. Moreover, these people all had the same morality as Yin Ghosts and were afraid of dog teeth! As for the dragon Gu, the White Seedling Gu King, it was definitely not that simple. Not to mention the others, just its survival time was enough to make people feel respect and fear for it! Furthermore, it's raising methods are definitely different from normal Gu worms! "
