Chapter Eighty-Eight: Sword Gu
The envoy of the Northern Ya Patrol is full of martial arts, and Wang Peng is young and strong, and the feet of both of them are very fast, and they have come to the alley stained with blood red in a few breaths. There was also a female corpse at the entrance of the alley, and the rest were all dismantled, accompanied by extremely distorted faces, as if they had suffered great pain before dying.
The two stopped in front of the alley, and the envoy Kong took a look at the female corpse lying in front of the alley, and then walked straight in, looking as usual among the bloody aura and the corpse that shocked people's spirits; Wang Peng stayed at the mouth of the alley in a disgusting scene, waiting for the investigation and return of the envoy of the Northern Ya.
Just like in the Zhaocai Restaurant, Inspector Kong only walked once before turning back.
Finally, he returned to the alley, came to the alley, crouched down, and carefully examined the only female corpse with all four limbs.
"An unknown female martial artist in the rivers and lakes, except for the broken fingers of both hands, the cause of death is ......" Wang Peng gritted his teeth to resist the urge to vomit, and continued, "I was killed by my heart." ”
"No, she took it out for herself. ”
Inspector Kong patted the young man on the shoulder: "If you want to vomit, just vomit, don't bear it, just vomit a few times." ”
Wang Peng finally couldn't control his churning stomach, and didn't bother to ask the old catcher how he knew the cause of the woman's death, let alone why he took the bracelet from the woman's corpse, his physiological impulse overpowered reason, and he couldn't wait to run to the wall and lean over and vomit.
Inspector Kong took the opportunity to squat down, carefully took out a bead of uncertain color between blue and red from the hole in the chest of the female corpse, wrapped it in a handkerchief and stuffed it into his arms, and stood up. Wang Peng was still vomiting and didn't notice his movements at all.
While Xue Chengshou was busy, the two of them who had changed their disguises again returned to the Fugui Inn before it was dark. The sun was about to set, and the light in the room was a little dim, Su Su got up and lit lamps in the four corners of the room, and when the last light was on, there were two more people in the room silently.
Shangguan Tingxue immediately pounced on one of them, raised a white ball in his hand to the other party's eyes, and said happily: "Brother, look, Sister Su taught me to practice Gu!"
"Gu?" Xu Heng hugged the girl, straightened her in his arms, and carefully looked at the "Gu" in the girl's hand.
It is about the same length and thickness as the little finger, with a small swelling in the middle and two small ends, and one end is round and the other is pointed, and there is a ring bulge in the middle. The thing in the girl's hand was not so much the Gu worm he had seen before, but the chrysalis of a butterfly or other flying insect.
"Is this also a Gu worm?" Xu Heng looked up at the woman, "I look more like a chrysalis." ”
Su Su glanced at Xu Heng calmly, his eyes were full of disdain for the ignorant: "Gu is Gu, Gu worm is Gu worm, although there is a relationship between the two, it is not the same thing, all kinds of Gu worms you have seen before are just a form of Gu, a hundred worm Gu." ”
"So this kind of chrysalis is also a form of cultivating Gu?"
Xu Heng turned a blind eye to the woman's little contempt, took the chrysalis from the girl's hand and felt it seriously, and then threw it to Pu Feng beside him: "The things in this chrysalis don't seem to be the same, can you feel it?"
Pu Feng put the butterfly in the palm of his hand, only to feel that there was vigorous vitality in it, and there was a faint sword intent in it, which surprised him: "I have heard that the ancient sword refiner once had a 'gathering the meaning of the sword, practicing the sword into a fetus' to refine a sword from nothingness, this chrysalis seems to have the same effect as it!"
Speaking of this, Pu Feng sensed the truth: "Could it be that the sword intent contained in this comes from ......?"
"Cut the pupils!" Xu Heng took the sword chrysalis from the hand of the bladeless sword master, held his breath and calmed down, and with a grip in his hand, a sword as clear as blue water appeared in his hand. With a wave of his hand, there was a sword light sprinkled out, clear and slight, just like the clear eyes of a girl.
Xu Heng's half-sword embryo physique can hold ten thousand swords, and it immediately evokes the spirituality of the pupil-cutting, showing the edge of the pupil-cutting spirit sword. The Cut-Pupil Spirit Sword was originally a sword escorted by Pu Feng down the mountain, and the sword owner was originally Shangguan Tingxue, the princess of the rivers and lakes, but because Pu Feng was caught in the conspiracy designed by the ghost city of Yudu and could not get out, it was not delivered in time when Shangguan Tingxue was in danger.
But the sword has a spirit, and after sensing the crisis of the sword master, the spirit automatically flew out of the savior, leaving the empty body in Pu Feng's place, and later because of the critical situation, Pu Feng lent the sword without spirit to Jiang Liqing to use. In the end, after the matter was over, the Cut-Pupil Sword Spirit could not return to its original body.
Under the research of many parties, Xu Heng and the others could only guess that after the sword spirit of the cut pupil left its body, it was contaminated by Jiang Liqing's breath and the breath of the Gu insects in the ghost city of Xudu, which polluted the spirituality of the sword body, making it difficult for the sword spirit and the sword body to blend.
After knowing this, the girl simply gave the body of the Pupil-Cutting Sword to Jiang Liqing. In the end, everything seemed to be happy, but Pu Feng still had a knot in his heart, but he didn't expect Su Su to untie the knot in this way at this moment.
Seeing the sword light sprinkled by the cut pupils, Pu Feng was particularly happy, but this made the girl feel distressed: "Oh, the little pupil hasn't completely transformed yet, brother, you can't use it like this! Brother, give it to me!"
The aggrieved Shangguan Tingxue struggled and wanted to grab the sword chrysalis, but her bad brother turned his hand over, and after eliminating the spirit sword, he stretched his hand far away, and the girl couldn't reach it at all.
Xu Heng looked at the woman with a smile on her face: "This is also a kind of Gu?"
Su Su: "In the Southern Xinjiang Yuanshen Sect, everything can be regarded as Gu. The Gu Dao is broad and profound, with many classifications, Xiao Xue's cut pupils now belong to the 'miscellaneous Gu' that is made up of things and insects, and it is okay if it is called a sword Gu. “
Pu Feng: "The spirituality of the Pupil-Cutting Sword Spirit is so high, make it into a sword Gu with the essence." It is not a good thing that it can not only warm up the sword spirit, but also play it more effectively. ”
"Miscellaneous ......"
A thought flashed in his mind, Xu Heng's movements froze, and just as he was about to grasp that thought, the pupil-cutting sword Gu in his hand was snatched by the girl, and the crisp cheers interrupted his thoughts.
Su Su noticed his abnormality: "What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay," Xu Heng rubbed his eyebrows, "The ghost city of Xudu is also very good at using Gu worms, if you have time, tell me about Gu Dao." It's always good to know yourself and your opponent. ”
Su Su nodded, and the discussion about Gu came to an end, and then Xu Heng told the two women about what happened to the two of them in the afternoon. And put forward his decision: "Give up this temptation and go back to Shenjing City to make plans." ”
"To be able to carry out such a precise ambush and assassination, it is obvious that the other party has already set its sights on us, no matter who the other party is, it is too unwise for us to enter the game so rashly, so I suggest that we abandon this operation and find another opportunity in the future. ”
Xu Hengwang asked the two companions for advice.
Pu Feng nodded in agreement.
Su Su frowned: "I don't care. ”
Shangguan Tingxue struggled in Xu Heng's arms to express that she had the opposite opinion, but her small mouth had already been covered by Xu Heng, and she couldn't make a sound for a long time.
Shangguan listened to Xue: "Hmm, hmm!"
Xu Heng: "Okay, since there is no objection, then our action this time will be ......"
"I'm afraid you can't go like this. Then a voice appeared outside the door, "I think you should listen to the little girl's opinion." ”
