Chapter 112, Gu Worm
Xue Jian's eyes almost widened, looking at this strange and terrifying scene.
Xue Chen was still talking and laughing, and he didn't react until two lines of blood ran down his cheeks, slid down his chin, and dripped onto the back of his hand.
"Don't move. ”
Xue Jian immediately spoke, stopping him from wiping the corners of his eyes.
Blood kept oozing from his blood-red eyes, and gradually, he felt pain and dizziness.
Xue Jian stepped forward and stared at his eyes carefully, only to find that in Xue Chen's pupils, there were many insects that were almost invisible to the naked eye.
At this scene, Xue Jian couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he saw it, and his hairs stood on his body.
He finally understood that the so-called curse of the Xue family was not a real curse, but a Gu worm by someone.
Xue Chen screamed miserably, and couldn't help but clasp his eyes with his hands.
Xue Jian immediately stopped him, took out a porcelain bottle from the spatial belt, opened the mouth of the bottle, and exuded a fishy and bitter aura.
He hurriedly gathered the Sea Shadow Beast's bile in front of Xue Chen's eyes, and in just a moment, the Gu worms in his eyeballs twisted and flowed out along with the blood water.
Xue Chen's expression was extremely painful, and his wailing immediately attracted many people.
Xue Mingzhi rushed here and looked shocked when he saw his blood-soaked eyes.
"Cursed...... It's a curse again!"
Xue Jian took out a large pill and stuffed it into Xue Chen's mouth, knocking him unconscious.
"It's not a curse, it's a witch. ”
Most people didn't dare to approach Xue Chen, for fear of being infected by the curse, and only Xue Mingzhi and Du Xiaoqing came closer.
They saw that in the puddle of blood on the ground, there were many tiny insects twisting and turning, which was extremely oozing.
"Is this a Gu worm? Someone planted a Gu on Xue Chen?"
Xue Mingzhi was shocked.
As for the techniques of the Nanming wizards to repel insects and grow Gu, the people of the Xue family had naturally heard of it for a long time, but this was the first time they had seen Gu worms.
Xue Jian probed Xue Chen's pulse and concluded that there were no Gu worms in his body, so he sent him back to the room to rest.
He reached out and picked up a tiny worm and said to the crowd.
"In the past year, the culprit who killed our Xue family was not a curse, but this small almost invisible Gu worm.
This Gu worm is contagious, and after the death of the host, it will quickly find a second host, continue to parasitize, and will mature within seven days, taking the host's life. ”
Only then did everyone understand why only one person died every seven days.
Xue Mingzhi looked calm and said angrily.
"It's really vicious, who planted this kind of Gu worm on our Xue family. ”
If it was a curse killing, they had no way at all, but if they had known that it was the Gu worm that caused it, maybe not so many clansmen would have died.
A little girl asked, tilting her head back with worry in her eyes.
"Big brother, will Brother Chen die?"
Xue Jian shook his head with a smile and said.
"Fortunately, I was with him when the Gu worm attacked, and now that the Gu worm is removed, he should be fine. ”
The little girl continued.
"Do we have this bug in our body?"
It stands to reason that this kind of Gu worm is a monomeric parasitic.
Only when the host dies will it parasitize on the second host, since Xue Chen is the current host, there should be no Gu worms on the others.
But for the sake of safety, he still asked everyone to gather and line up, and everyone stepped forward to smell the bile of the Sea Shadow Beast.
The smell of this bile was indeed extremely unpleasant, Du Xiaoqing looked at the uncomfortable expressions of those people on the side, and resisted the urge to laugh.
These days, almost every once in a while, she is asked by Xue Jian to smell bile.
Although the process was painful, she could feel that an invisible restraint that had existed before seemed to be loosening more and more.
The blood-red flower on her chest had completely shrunk into small buds, and even the color had begun to fade.
In the end, everyone in the Xue family smelled the bile, and sure enough, they didn't find any other Gu worms.
After a year, the shadow of panic that hung over the hearts of everyone in the Xue family was finally removed.
This time, everyone in the Xue family was extremely grateful to Xue Jian, and his younger brothers and sisters admired him even more.
The curse that has plagued the family for a year has killed so many people, and it has only been two days since Xue Jian came, and he has successfully solved this problem.
But Xue Jian's heart was not relaxed at all, the person behind the scenes didn't know who it was, how could he rest assured.
And his mother died because of this, there is a wrong, a debtor, and the Xue family's forty-nine lives, how can it be counted like this.
On the same day, he checked all the information about the Senwu tribe, and now it seems that the most suspicious is the Senwu tribe.
In addition, Xue Jian, the remnant of the Nine Dragons, must be snatched back, even if he can't do it, he must find a way to do it.
The Senwu tribe is the most primitive group of Nanming aborigines in the Nanzhao Forest, and their ancestors lived in that forest many years ago.
Unlike the Five Poisons Sect, the Senwu tribe is relatively closed, does not accept contact with outsiders, and does not value gold and silver at all.
They believe in the primitive law of the jungle, and all food is obtained by hunting.
The locals of Takagi Castle are in awe of this group of primitive natives.
If they meet in the forest, they will take a detour, and if they have prey in their hands, they will also give the prey to the people of the Senwu tribe as a sign of friendship.
According to the book, the people of the Senwu tribe have indeed never taken the initiative to attack people from the outside world.
This should be a group of primitive natives who are self-sufficient and self-sufficient, and they do not have the desire to compete for fame and fortune, so they will not persecute others for money like the Five Poisons Sect.
Xue Jian became more and more puzzled, how could such a tribe come to Gaomu City to rob the Xue family's Nine Dragons Remnant Monument, and even killed so many people by playing Gu.
At nightfall, he sat alone in the room, and with a thought, he took out a remnant of the Nine Dragons Monument.
Xue Jian pressed his right hand on the divine text on the remnant tablet, and recited the incantation taught to him by the national teacher Li Mi in his mouth, and calmed his mind.
After a long time, sweat broke out on his forehead, and his right hand began to tremble, and he had to stop this stele-seeking method.
Under his induction, within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, there was no breath of other Nine Dragons Remnant Monuments.
In this case, then the Xue family's Nine Dragons Remnant Monument was taken to a very distant place, or like him, the Remnant Monument was included in the Space Element.
Finally, he traveled thousands of miles to come here, but in the end, he got such a result, and Xue Jian was unwilling.
If he didn't find the remnant of the Nine Dragons, he would never go back.
Another two days have passed, and Xue Chen has fully recovered under the healing of Da Huandan.
On this day, it is also the day when the Xue family's hunting team is preparing to enter the Nanzhao jungle to hunt and collect medicine.
At Xue Jian's request, the hunting team took him and Du Xiaoqing, and a group of people left Gaomu City and stepped into the Nanzhao Forest in the early morning.
