C289 dragon Gu

Glancing at Zheng Wuxie, I didn't say anything else. The Zheng Family's matters were chaotic, so Zheng Wuxie's mother naturally had her own considerations. From the information that Zheng Wuxie had inadvertently revealed, their Thirteen Room was no longer as overbearing as he was in the past. No matter what, there was one less man in their family, and he was an extremely overbearing man as well. Zheng Biquan, this should be a name that shone with the splendor of that era.

I no longer had any interest in looking at the pile of corpses on the floor. As for the three nameplates with the word 'Zheng' engraved on them, I took another look at them before stuffing them into my backpack.

As we walked forward, Xiao Ya tightly held onto the old granny's hand. Her face was still as pale as before, and the intercalated soil looked extremely lonely. From start to finish, there wasn't a single person he could rely on.

In the deepest part of the nameless canyon, in the most lush part of the forest, there were piles of rocks that were riddled with holes.

The holes in the boulders were very large. The diameter of the holes was as thick as the thigh of a robust man. Furthermore, there were no edges on the outside. They were extremely smooth.

If these holes could pierce through boulders, then these boulders would definitely turn into a brilliant and exquisite scene under the sun. It was a pity that it was not, so this dense number of holes made people feel uncomfortable, just like a beehive, every boulder was like a reptile's nest.

"It should be here, right?" Zheng Wuxie looked at the old granny uncertainly. The old granny did not reply immediately, but turned around and looked at her surroundings carefully before nodding slowly.

"Then, should we start now?" Zheng Wuxie asked again, and the old granny shook her head: "There's no rush."

She picked up a tree branch and slowly drew a circle with a diameter of two meters on the ground. She also drew many lines in the circle. It looked more like a maze. Every time the lines drew to the edge of the circle, the grandma would flatten the edge of the gully with her foot, leaving a gap that was similar to an entrance.

The situation at one of the openings was a bit special. A very thick line extended out from the opening, extending all the way until there was a distance of three meters between them. The old granny drew a smaller circle at the end, just large enough for her to stand inside and not be able to accommodate a second person. I looked and saw that this small circle was exactly the same size as the small circle in the middle of the big circle, while the lines drawn by the old granny in the small circle seemed to be a lot more regular.

The grandma's seemingly slow actions actually did not take much time. After she finished the design, she stopped to look for a few seconds and then evenly sprinkled the powder from the small bottle onto the lines within the circle.

"Alright, let's begin." The old woman stood in the circle and spoke to us with narrowed eyes.

"Cun Hu, Wu Xie, protect your two children well." Zheng Wuxie repeatedly warned me and I nodded as I pulled the Infinite Earth to my side. was protecting his, but he did not retract the blade in his hand, it was still in his hand.

Zheng Wuxie took out a very small box. When the box was opened, he saw a white string incense inside the box. He turned his head to look at his surroundings, then lit up the incense and stuck it into the ground.

This kind of fragrance was very peculiar, not a single bit of smoke was produced. But slowly, a very rich and strange fragrance assaulted my nostrils, and as the incense burned little by little, the fragrance became increasingly stronger.

Suddenly, there were countless rustling sounds coming from the giant rocks in front of us. Many small black bugs drilled out of the holes like long dragons. They densely flew out and immediately turned the white rock into black.

The bugs moved about and tried to climb up from the rocks, but as soon as they touched the ground, they became motionless. From the looks of it, they were dead.

I had initially thought that it was due to the incense given by Zheng Wuxie, but what happened before my eyes immediately overturned my judgement. After the first wave of bugs that came down the giant rock died, they suddenly went crazy, and used their corpses to pave a path towards that white thread of incense.

If the bugs behind stepped on the corpses of the bugs in front of them, they would not be affected at all. The scene reminded me of migrating rats, their madness of filling the way with corpses was very similar to the black bugs.

Soon, the ground was covered by a black mass. It surrounded the incense stick stuck into the ground, creating an irregular circle. Meanwhile, the black bugs that were stepping on their companion's corpse scrambled to climb up the incense. Very soon, the crackling sounds came from the incense that had been lit. The moment the black bugs came into contact with the fire, they suddenly scattered into black powder and scattered down. The incense was not affected in the slightest.

Zheng Wuxie stared at the thread of incense in shock and bewilderment. There were many times when he wanted to ask the old granny something, but seeing the old granny's eyes that seemed to be shut, he held back from doing so. That makes me a little curious, but it doesn't seem right.

"What's going on?" I placed the intercalated earth next to Fan Cunhu, and took two steps forward to stand together with Zheng Wuxie.

"I don't know. This incense should have been able to draw out that Gu King, but … I'm afraid there might be a problem... " Zheng Wuxie looked at the white string incense. At this moment, the black stuff underneath the string incense was getting thicker and thicker, but there were still worms moving around like moths to a flame, crawling up the incense, as if they were trying to turn him into a pile of black ash.

Other than the burning incense, the white incense could no longer be seen. The insect flow had already covered it, turning it black.

Just as Zheng Wuxie and I were speaking, the sound of an infant's cry suddenly came out, it was very faint, as though it came out after colliding against countless of walls, causing people to not be able to tell where the source of the cry was.

This sound seemed to be an order. The black bugs suddenly became motionless, and after a short pause, they retreated like a tide. In such a short time, all that was left was a pile of black masses on the ground, while the bugs that were stepping on the corpses of their comrades quickly drilled back into the holes.

Slurp! A red blur flashed across my vision. I turned my head quickly, but there was no sign of it.

Help! With a violent clash, the black Pu Dao in both of Fan Cunhu's hands were struck by a red object. However, it was also only for a split-second before the object that looked like a pile of meatballs disappeared once again.

Slurp slurp! The tree branches above me suddenly swayed, coming at a rapid pace. Before my consciousness could react, my hand had already wielded the Eight Treasures Demon Fighting Pestle and it smashed towards my head. The benefits of continuously training the Longevity Fist have been completely revealed in this kind of unexpected situation. My reflexes are exceptionally sharp, forming a reaction that is similar to instinct.

Weng! * The Eight Treasures Demon Fighting Pestle violently trembled, and an irresistible force came from the Demon Subduing Pestle. My shoulders were in severe pain, and my feet that were standing on the ground sunk into the ground in an instant.

Just as I let out a breath of relief, I suddenly felt a strange energy try to enter my skin through my hands. It looked like it was some kind of insect that would stick itself into a person's blood vessel, but I couldn't see any trace of it with the naked eye. I immediately understood, this should be a type of Gu worm that we don't even know!

"F * ck!" I couldn't help but curse out loud. The longevity that was condensed in my hand shook violently and that strange energy was bounced off my body. It only showed its traces at this moment and turned into a field of dark red blood that sprinkled onto the ground. An itchy feeling came from the back of my hand. Lowering my head, I saw that there was a lot of blood seeping out of my skin. That was mine.

The surrounding trees began to shake as if there was a strong wind blowing by. Even the sturdy trunk began to shake violently. A mass of red occasionally appeared in my line of sight, but all I could see was a series of illusions. I simply could not grasp the exact position of that thing.

Fan Cunhu and I had been attacked a few times, and Fan Cunhu's blade could accurately pinpoint the location of the ball of red light, but after clashing with it a few times, his palm had already completely split open, and fresh blood dyed the coarse cloth that twined on the blade hilt red.

Something must have gone wrong with Fan Cunhu because his face started to turn a little bit scarlet, like blood bubbles. As his expression changed, the blood bubbles would immediately explode, and a little bit of red would appear on his face.

Help! I held the Demon Subduing Pestle and smashed apart the red ball that was pouncing towards Zheng Wuxie. Zheng Wuxie had no moral integrity at all, he immediately squatted on the ground and hugged his head with both hands, then looked around like a thief. Only after realizing that he was fine did he straighten his body.

At this time, I didn't have the time to scold him. While carefully observing my surroundings, I built a bridge between myself and that flower. I didn't care about the drain of energy, and stretched out my hand to let a giant invisible flower bloom in front of me.

This is an extremely peaceful power. I wanted to chase after the red afterimage, but the power of the ground flower brushed past the rapidly moving shadow, but it didn't have the slightest effect. On the contrary, the surrounding trees, after being scoured by the flowers of the land, started to thicken at a speed which could be seen with the naked eye. At the same time, they became my eyes and ears.

With this, everything around me was clearly visible. I could feel the red welcome trail, and I felt a lot more at ease. It looked very similar to earthworms, but its body was very thick, about the same diameter as those holes in the giant rocks. It was as thick as a robust man's thigh. At the same time, it was also very short, only as long as a person's arm. As for the leather pouch with messy scales that appeared extremely dirty, it seemed to be completely wrapped in blood.

This should be the Gu King, the dragon Gu! The two short antennae on its head immediately made me understand. Moreover, this wingless thing unexpectedly hadn't relied on any external object. From start to finish, it was flying!
