Section 349: Leishan County

The two entered an inn under the vigilant eyes of everyone, Mu Sheng took out the spirit stone from the storage bag, paid the room fee, and Xiao Er brought the two into the guest room.

Mu Sheng asked: "Little Er, please ask one thing, why my brother and I are walking on the road, so many people cast strange eyes." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "It's the first time the two guest officers have come here, right?"

Mu Sheng nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

"Do you know what kind of boundary this is?"

"Isn't it Leishan County?" asked Tan Taixin puzzled.

Xiao Er smiled: "Leishan County is right, but this place is very different from the two of you who came to Gyeonggi City. The people here are mixed, not only our cultivators from Nanhua Kingdom, but also the descendants of Juan. ”

"Descendant?" This name Mu Sheng had seen in the jade slip given by Nangong Yuhuan.

There is no detailed record on the jade slip, only that it is said that the descendants of Juan live on the mountain, claiming to be a village on the clouds, and do not have their own town, but the village is connected to the extremely difficult to break, do not obey the education, do not pay taxes and money, if the monarch sends people to encircle and suppress, they will withdraw to the deep mountains and old forests, and once the soldiers leave, they will come down from the mountains again.

"Exactly, so Leishan County is not very peaceful, and often have to worry about the attack of a juan, and the people in the city will be so vigilant about the strangers who come, afraid that there is a trickle. Xiao Er explained.

"I see. Is there a lot of hoops that come here often?" asked Mu Sheng.

"Alas, speaking of which, every winter, a fish will come to attack Leishan County. Xiao Er sighed.

"Why is that?" asked Mu Sheng, puzzled.

"In winter, the snow covers the mountains, and the Juana clan has no food to eat, so don't you come to attack here?" Xiao Er explained.

"Don't they grow rice?" said Tantaixin.

"Why don't you plant, it's just that the land on this mountain is not as fertile as the plains, and the food grown is not enough to eat?"

"How can it be? Don't they all practice? As long as they reach the Five Qi Period, they can open the valley, and they can live the winter without eating?"

Xiao Er glanced at the two of them and said, "It turns out that you two don't know what's going on with the Juanren?"

The two were inexplicably asked by Xiao Er, and they glanced at each other, but they didn't know what Xiao Er meant. However, the two of them didn't guess for long, and Xiao Er continued: "I don't know why, everyone in the Youjuan clan can't cultivate, and it seems that the body structure is different from ours. ”

"If you can't cultivate, then you're not our opponent at all, how can you be afraid that they will attack the city?" Mu Sheng instantly remembered the mortals in Beiguo Village, who were completely no different from ants in the eyes of cultivators.

Xiao Er shook his head and said, "You people from the metropolis, you think things are too simple. Although the Youjuan clan can't cultivate like us, they have their own cultivation methods. ”

"Oh, how do they practice?" Mu Shengyi was interested when he heard it.

"Legend has it that there are people of the Juan tribe, who are strong and not afraid of swords, and the clansmen are good at serving ghosts and gods and practicing Gu arts. So it's not as vulnerable as you think. Xiao Er explained.

"Gu technique, what kind of Dao method is that? He had never heard of this technique, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Where is this Dao method, it's simply an evil art?" Xiao Er said with a look of horror on his face: "Gu is commonly known as the "grass ghost" in the area of the Juan tribe, and according to legend, it is attached to a woman and endangers others. Those so-called women with Gu are called "grass ghost women". Legend has it that the method of creating poisonous Gu is generally to put a variety of highly poisonous poisonous insects such as snakes and scorpions, such as scorpions, scorpions, etc., into the same utensil, so that they can eat and kill each other, and the only remaining poisonous insects are Gu. There are many types of Gu, and the ones with great influence are snake Gu, dog Gu, cat ghost Gu, scorpion Gu, toad Gu, insect Gu, flying Gu, etc. Although Gu seems to be a tangible thing on the surface, since ancient times, Gu has been considered a mysterious thing that can fly, change, glow, and come and go like a ghost. Gu makers can use spells to remotely control Gu worms to bring various diseases to the target and even kill them. ”

"Then won't these snakes, scorpions, and insects be killed by Taoism?" Mu Shengqi said.

"Although they will also be killed by the spells of our cultivators, there are many insects that can't stand others, and there will always be fish that slip through the net, and once they attack the city, they will inevitably cause casualties. There is even a kind of terrifying Gu technique, which puts Gu worms into well water or food while people are unprepared, and after people eat them, they will attack in the stomach, which is extremely vicious. Xiao Er said vividly.

"This method doesn't seem to have much effect, as long as everyone takes care of the water and food, won't it be fine?" asked Mu Sheng.

Xiao Er shook his head and said: "How can it be so simple to have the Gu skills of the Juan clan, they have some unexpected Gu techniques, which make people unguardable, such as the slices Gu harming people, it is a piece of bamboo slivers, about four or five inches long, quietly put it on the road, pedestrians pass by, and the slices jump on the feet and legs of pedestrians, making people's feet hurt incomparably." Over time, he jumped into his knees, and his feet were as small as a crane's knees, and within four or five years, he would die. ”

"Isn't this something that cultivators can expelle on their own?" asked Tan Taixin.

"Unless you're a Jindan stage master, it's hard to get rid of it. Xiao Er said this and continued: "There is also a stone Gu, put a piece of stone on the road, mark it as a mark, but don't let others know." Pedestrians walk by, the stone jumps on the body or in the belly, the beginning is hard, three or four months later, the stone Gu will be able to move in the abdomen, crying, people gradually become constipated and thin, the stone Gu can fly into the hands and feet, within three or five years, the person will die. There is also a kind of chancre Gu, which puts the minced poisonous snakes and insects in meat, vegetables, wine, and rice for people to eat. Those with advanced skills are also placed on the road, and they enter the human body when they step on it. After entering the body, the end of the medicine sticks to the intestines, causing symptoms of bloating, screaming, severe pain, diarrhea, and impulsiveness, and it will be fatal in two or three years. And so on and so forth. ”

After listening to Xiao Er's introduction, Tan Taixin couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body, and said: "No wonder people here are staring at strangers so closely, I see." ”

Xiao Er smiled bitterly and said: "It's not like that, this trick of the Juan clan is unexpected, and it is impossible to guard against it, so the people in the county town are suspicious, and the grass and trees are all soldiers." ”

Mu Sheng frowned and said, "Since it is as powerful as you said, is there no solution to these Gu poisons?"

"It's not nothing, like some small Gu poisons, that is, those Gu that can only make people feel soft on their hands and feet, vomiting and diarrhea, there are still corresponding medicines in the county to solve them. As he spoke, Xiao Er handed the two of them a bag of things.
