Chapter 35: 'Gu'
"There is no cure for this disease!! As Xiao Yu's words fell, the originally chaotic room suddenly became eerily quiet, and after a while, the noise sounded.
Zhuo Simiao was half frightened when he heard Xiao Yu's words, Xiao Yu didn't know who Zhong Lao was, he knew that Zhong Lao was one of the country's 'nine elders' before he retired.
"What are you, you are responsible for what you say!" An expert from the Central Health Bureau stood up and pointed at Xiao Yu and reprimanded.
"That's it!" "It's just..."
"How do young people speak?"
All kinds of denunciations came to Xiao Yu's ears, but Xiao Yu sat on a stool in the corner, his eyes closed, like an old monk in a fixed place, ignoring the accusations of the experts.
Only the people of the Zhuo family looked at Xiao Yu in surprise, Zhong Lao, Zhong Jianguo and Zhong Tao looked at Xiao Yu with a shocked expression, when did anyone dare to talk to his Zhong family like this? Directly one was not saved, and several members of the Zhong family were thundered.
At this time, Zhuo Hongjun, who was sitting on the main seat, came to his senses, looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Xiao Xiao, do you know what the illness is?" ”
Zhong Lao also eased up at this time and looked at Xiao Yu calmly, as if the patient was not himself: "Young man, what kind of disease am I?" At least let my old man die! ”
"Grandpa, don't listen to his nonsense, you'll be fine!" Zhong Tao looked at Xiao Yu with a resentful expression and said.
"Yes! Father! You'll be fine! Zhong Jianguo also said comforting to the old man.
Xiao Yu opened his eyes and looked at Zhong Lao, and slowly spoke: "You are not sick, you are Miao Jiang Gu!" ”
"Gu?
"Gu? What is that? ”
………………………………………
With a "boom", the entire conference room exploded, and all kinds of discussions broke out.
Zhuo Lao, who was in the main seat, and Huang Lao, a Chinese medicine expert from the Health Bureau, fell into deep contemplation.
Several members of the Zhong family were at a loss, but Zhong Lao was the first to recover, looked at Xiao Yu and asked, "Young man, what is Gu?" ”
Hearing Zhong Lao's question, all the experts in the room looked at Xiao Yu in unison, and even Zhuo Hongxing and Huang Lao, who were contemplative, raised their heads to look at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu looked at everyone and said slowly: "It is said that Miao Jiang is actually a general reference, mainly referring to the current Miao people, the Miao people live in the mountains, because the terrain in the mountains is dangerous, poisonous insects are everywhere, and the mountains are also full of highly toxic miasma.
Because the mountain poison insects are everywhere, so among the various ethnic groups in Miaojiang, each is good at using poisons, and there are secret methods that can drive poisonous insects to hurt people invisibly.
The entire Miao people occupy a dominant position in Miao Jiang, and the real reason why the Miao people can dominate Miao Jiang is not their number, but that the Miao people, regardless of age, children, women and children, all have a strange magic -------- Gu!
"Seed Gu?" Zhuo Lao stood up abruptly and exclaimed. "Could it be that the Miao Jiang Gu Technique really exists?" Then he sat down and muttered to himself.
Hearing Zhuo Lao's exclamation, everyone in the room looked at Zhuo Lao.
"Lao Zhuo, do you also know Gu?" Zhong Lao looked at Zhuo Hongxing in surprise.
Zhuo Lao nodded slowly and said, "I heard my father mention it before, according to my father, he hasn't seen it either, it was my father's master who told him!" Gu is an extremely special thing, which can cause death unknowingly, and the people who are planted Gu are often suffering and die in a miserable state! ”
"Who is it? Who is going to kill my father? Check it out for me! Zhong Jianguo stood up suddenly when he heard Zhuo Lao's words, his eyes widened, and he shouted loudly.
Zhong Tao also had a hideous face, and there was a faint fierce light in his eyes.
Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Xiao Yu sneered in the corner: "Cup, it's not as terrible as you think, in fact, in Miaojiang, most of the reason why many Miao people and other ethnic minorities make cups and raise cups is not to harm others, but to protect themselves."
"Self-preservation?" Zhuo Lao was stunned for a moment and said to himself.
"Yes, self-preservation, the people of all ethnic groups living in Miaojiang must survive in the harsh environment of Miaojiang full of poisonous insects and miasma, and fight all the cups to drive out the miasma, kill poisonous insects, and ensure their own safety.
Most of these poisonous insects are in the Dragon Boat Festival every year, and all kinds of poisonous insects - it is said that there are at least twelve and up to hundreds of poisonous insects - into a sealed jar and buried in the ground, these poisonous insects have lost their freedom, there is no food source, just wait for each other to attack and eat, after seven hundred and forty-nine days, most of the poisonous insects have been eaten away, and finally only one is the strongest, which is the poisonous Gu. And this survivor, after cannibalizing the other eleven poisonous insects, will also undergo great changes in itself, evolving into a Gu worm with a certain amount of intelligence.
After the poisonous Gu is made, although it already has a certain amount of wisdom, and its strength has also increased after evolution, it is still relatively weak, and it must be kept by the owner for a period of time before it can really be used by the owner. At this stage, the owner of the poisonous Gu is still facing great danger, because although the Gu worm has become a worm, its mind is still unstable, and if the owner is not able to provide enough food, it is very likely that they will attack its master.
Not only that, but due to the different poisonous surnames and powers of the poisonous insects used, the poisonous Gu abilities made are also very different. Generally speaking, there are generally three levels: primary Gu, ordinary Gu, and advanced Gu. Most of them refer to primary Gu that can improve their own strength and system, and can provide themselves with miasma immunity. These primary Gus, although they are also poisonous Gus, can only live in the master's body for the rest of their lives after being made by their masters, relying on their master's breeding to survive, and have no attack power, so they cannot be used to attack enemies.
