Chapter 159
"Gu" is not a poison, but a general term for a certain type of creature. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The "Gu" as understood by ordinary people are all strange insects that use Gu magic to develop special poison, and can obey the control of the person who raises Gu, so as to kill people invisibly. However, since Gu art is inherited from the ancient witch doctor lineage, it belongs to the oldest witch Gu art, how can it stop there?
Hundreds of years ago, during the period when Gu magic secretly shined, the variety of "Gu" was incredibly large, for Gu masters, it was not only snakes, insects, rats and ants that could be made into "Gu", but also those who flew in the water in the sky, those with legs or no legs on the ground, and even a grass and tree on the mountain could become a killing weapon under their cultivation, although many cultivation methods have long been lost, but there are also many terrible Gu remaining, and although these ancient Gu species are different, But they all have one thing in common.
They are all alive.
The reason why Gu are Gu is because they are not only full of poison, but also will obey the orders of the person who manipulates the Gu to attach themselves to the designated creatures, and damage the host's body to make them continue to multiply and spread, so as to achieve the purpose of making the host die in pain, and the dead Gu cannot be called a "Gu" at all, it is just a "poison" with half the effect.
And the bottle of dark green liquid in Canghu's hand was a living Gu.
Canghu didn't know Gu arts, and she didn't know much about this record, she couldn't make out which kind of Gu it belonged to, but at least she could be sure that this bottle was all made of a small creature that she couldn't recognize.
After knowing this, many things can be answered naturally.
Those foreigners who turned into "zombies" had actually died a long time ago because of the Gu, but because their bodies were full of this kind of small Gu, their bodies were constantly damaged under the spread of Gu reproduction, forming the appearance of "decay", and their corpses would continue to act under the control of Gu, so that they would not only provide nutrition for these living small creatures to grow and reproduce, but also be able to find more "hotbeds" for them. toxin diffusion".
And the reason why their corpses can continue to recover under various damages is precisely because of the relationship between these Gus. In fact, if you look closely, you can find that their corpses have long been dilapidated, and what connects them to various parts of the body is not their musculoskeletal at all, but these Gu that manipulate them to continue to move everywhere, and as the number of Gu continues to increase, the speed of reorganizing the corpse will become faster and faster, which naturally creates the illusion of "immortality".
After a brief explanation, Canghu couldn't help but shake the bottle and laughed.
"I didn't expect that it was because of the 'Gu' that the 'zombie' appeared, this is really an interesting cause and effect......
Ignoring her inexplicable emotion, Liu Yuanhua just lowered his eyes and looked at the side of the stone.
The Gu that the blue fox had fallen on the stone before flowed down the stone to that place, and then disappeared into the ground, leaving no trace.
Looking at the ordinary soil, Liu Yuanhua said lightly: "According to what you say, they will quickly burrow into the ground, is it because of ......"
Saying that, Liu Yuanhua looked at the blue fox, and the latter certainly understood the meaning of his gaze, so he nodded affirmatively, and said with a slight smile: "There must be an existence down here that can attract Gu and make them converge down." ”
Cang Yan, who was listening quietly, thought for a moment and asked in a deep voice: "Then are we going to chase down?" ”
"There's no need for that, after all, what we have to deal with is 'zombies', not 'Gu', compared to finding the source of Gu, it's much faster to find out where the Gu people in this gang came from, and when the time comes, it should be easier to start from their side, and it should be easier to achieve the 'let zombies not appear again' required by the contract." Speaking of this, Canghu thought for a moment and said slowly, "To keep appearing in the village, they should have lived somewhere in the village before they died...... Well, let's gather the dead people and isolate them first, otherwise we won't be able to search the village. ”
Liu Yuanhua and Cang Yan had no objection to Canghu's proposal, so Canghu said his thoughts in detail.
Her idea is very simple, because those "zombies" have long since died, and their actions are all controlled by the Gu that invades their bodies, so they have phototaxis and sound attraction that are different from ordinary people, and it is precisely because of this that they will besiege Canghu in the village - although the sound at that time was not made by them - as long as they use these two characteristics of "zombies", they can be easily attracted, and then gather them to a specific place, and Canghu will trap them with the magic circle they are best at, and the "isolation" can be completed.
The plan is not complicated, and it is not difficult to implement, Liu Yuanhua and Cang Yan have nothing to add, the only thing that makes them care a little is the state of Canghu's left arm now, but the person concerned is not worried, after understanding their thoughts, Canghu immediately raised his arm up and down in order to show that he was "okay", and he didn't care whether it would open the bandaged wound, until Liu Yuanhua's cold gaze and Cang Yan's increasingly serious gaze were both deterred, and she stopped her movements with a smile.
"Don't worry, my medicine is very effective, and normal movements are no problem. Besides, I'm just setting up a magic circle, and I'm not going into battle, so you don't have to worry too much. ”
Thinking about it, Liu Yuanhua and Cang Yan didn't try to say anything anymore, but there was still some unwillingness between Cang Yan's eyebrows, obviously still complaining about Cang Hu's casual behavior, this concern made Cang Hu's heart moved, and he couldn't help but rub Cang Yan's head, then he got up and looked around, thought for a moment, and said: "Let's go down the mountain, it's more appropriate to set up a magic circle in the open space outside the village." ”
The two "people" naturally had no objections, and seeing that Liu Yuanhua was about to carry the fox down the mountain again, Cang Yan took the lead in flying up, preparing to go down one step ahead of them and lure the enemy according to the plan. After all, he can release flames, and the target will be quite obvious, so it will be very easy to attract those "zombies".
However, as soon as he flew up, he was grabbed by the tail by the fox who saw his intentions.
"Yan, you can't go, just leave the matter of luring the enemy to Yuanhua."
The crisp voice made Cang Yan look back a little confused, only to find that not only Canghu looked affirmative, but even Liu Yuanhua was not surprised by this decision at all, as if he had already known that this was a task that he had to do, which made Cang Yan feel even more confused, so Canghu smiled slightly and spit out a sentence gently.
"You're not familiar with the changes in the Bagua Array, you'll get lost in it." (To be continued.) )
