Chapter 221: Pupa
"Woo......"
The crying outside the house rang out, and Kunyu, who had been staring at the small glass bottle in front of him for a while, wiped his face, stood up, and looked down at Tao Mengchu and Gu Yaopan.
"I have to leave, I can't miss the funeral...... I'll leave the matter of the Gu Chrysalis to you, and I'll talk about everything when I come back. ”
Tao Mengchu nodded, and watched Kun Yu walk out of the room, leaving him and Gu Yaopan to sit in front of the fire pit with a little residual warmth and guard these small glass bottles, cautiously waiting for the upcoming changes.
"The coffins of the Ayun family and the Ali family are about to go up the mountain, do you think the old witch father will notice something? After all, these Gu chrysalis are already in our hands. ”
Tao Mengchu stood by the window, looking at the long funeral procession on the stone road outside the house, with some worry in his eyes.
Gu Yaopan's eyes did not leave the three vials in front of him for a moment, and when he heard Tao Mengchu's words, he shook his head, and then seemed to think of something, and said:
"Do you remember that Kun Yu once said that the old witch father's natal Gu is gone. ”
"Yes. Tao Mengchu nodded.
"Most of Miao Qi's witchcraft still needs to be implemented with Gu worms as a medium, and without Gu worms, Miao Wu's strength will be greatly reduced, to be honest, I don't think he can find out, and Kun Yu said that the old witch father wants to preside over the sacrifice, and the possibility of success is not very large. ”
After Gu Yaopan finished speaking, he didn't speak anymore, but carefully observed the white mist condensed in the vial, unwilling to let go of any of the slightest changes.
Tao Mengchu nodded thoughtfully, Gu Yaopan's analysis was very reasonable. Although they couldn't understand the principle of Gu Technique in detail, Gu worms, as the most important component of it, would inevitably have very serious consequences if they lacked it.
"What will happen if the sacrifice fails?" Tao Mengchu looked at Gu Yaopan, and he suddenly thought of this extremely important question.
Stunned by Tao Mengchu's words, Gu Yaopan finally looked away from the glass bottle, glanced at Tao Mengchu, and then said, "I don't know." ”
After a while, he added: "But the consequences will never be good." ”
There was a brief silence in the room, Tao Mengchu turned his head to look at the funeral procession that was fading away outside the window, and suddenly felt a little cold in his vest. The lives and future of the people in this whole stockade were to be pinned on the sacrifice that was very likely to fail, and they had no choice.
"Here we go. ”
Gu Yaopan, who had been staring at the small bottle, suddenly shouted, and Tao Mengchu's attention instantly pulled back from the outside of the house, and his eyes fell on the small bottle placed on the ground.
I saw that the bottle containing the soul of Sister-in-law Aji seemed to be disturbed by something, and suddenly began to tremble slightly, and a dense "snort" sound came from the bottom of the bottle, and the white mist that was originally condensed together rolled up violently, as if to escape from something, but with the barrier of the bottle mouth charm, I couldn't escape, so I could only spin desperately in the bottle.
Gu Yaopan quickly uncorked the bottle, and the white mist felt the loosening of the bottle mouth at first glance, and immediately rushed out of the bottle and quickly escaped out of the window.
Just when Tao Mengchu opened his body sideways and was about to give up the window position so that the white mist could move, a huge suction force was generated from the small bottle in front of Gu Yaopan, and it was pulled back with a "whoosh" along the tail of the white mist that had not completely left, so fast that Tao Mengchu and Gu Yaopan didn't have time to react at all.
"Ah......h
......The small glass bottle began to shake non-stop, and the black-backed white star insect in it kept flapping its wings in it, as if it was devouring something, a pair of tongs opened and closed, looking extremely hideous, and with the opening and closing of its tongs, the dense fog that wrapped it was constantly fading, fading, until finally completely disappeared in front of Tao Gu and the two of them.
A faint cyan light flickered, and a pitch-black chrysalis appeared.
"It's over?"
Tao Mengchu looked at the Gu Chrysalis in front of him, and his mood was a little complicated.
When the white mist wanted to escape through the window, he gave up the position of the window for the first time, and he couldn't tell whether he planned to help it escape successfully, or if he hoped that this Gu pupa would complete its final chrysalis, but the fact was that before he could react, this white mist condensed by Sister-in-law Aji's soul had been completely devoured by this Gu worm.
"Hmm. Gu Yaopan nodded expressionlessly, and plugged the mouth of the bottle with the cap he was holding in his hand.
"You don't have to think about it, we can't help her. ”
Gu Yaopan lowered his head, his eyes didn't look at Tao Mengchu, and while putting all the bottles of Gu Chrysalis into his bag, he continued:
"The bond between the Gu worm and the master is much deeper than you think, it is not a simple spell or some kind of formation that can be cut off, this is something in the bloodline of the Miao people, when they develop a natal Gu, their life and soul are already shared, Gu is a person, and a person is a Gu. ”
"Hoo ......"
Tao Mengchu exhaled heavily, and when he looked at Gu Yaopan, there was suddenly a warmth in his eyes, he bent down and approached her, and said softly:
"Yaopan, are you comforting me?"
Gu Yaopan's hand that was packing up her things stopped, and she raised her head to look at Tao Mengchu, who was approaching her, her dark eyes were not close to her, and there was something called apprehension flickering in her pupils that kept scaling.
"You think so. ”
For some reason, a smile appeared on the corner of Gu Yaopan's mouth, and then it disappeared again.
"In this world, there are always things that are really powerless. ”
She looked down at her wrist and silently added to herself in her heart: There are always things that make you want to give it your all.
Looking at her appearance, a bright flame ignited in Tao Mengchu's eyes, this gesture of not refusing was something he could often feel recently, but it had never been so clear at this moment.
"What should I do next?" Tao Mengchu helped Gu Yaopan pack up the things at hand.
After confirming the fact of chrysalis, he had a feeling of urgency to find Kun Yu as soon as possible and tell him all the speculations that in this matter, a truly expert Gu cultivator would be much more efficient than the two of them doing it blindly.
"I'm wondering if we can set up a formation while we're waiting for Kunyu to come back. Gu Yaopan put the backpack behind him, stood in front of Tao Mengchu and looked at him and said.
"What array?" Tao Mengchu was a little suspicious, in his opinion, neither of them knew much about Gu techniques, what array could be deployed to achieve the effect of blocking Gu techniques, he had no clue.
"I'm not familiar with Gu art, but I can't get rid of the five elements of yin and yang, but we don't know how to drive, I wonder if it will have an effect if this side of the aura is isolated. ”
Gu Yaopan continued as he walked out:
"I want to set up a Soul Array. ”
"Absolute Spirit Array?" Tao Mengchu's footsteps stopped, and he took a light breath of cool air in his mouth.
