"Oh oh......" Jiang Yan turned his head and ran towards me like crazy, "Angkor, help!" Angkor ......"

I knew that I couldn't hide, so I simply stood up from the shadows, made way for Jiang Yan and them, and waited for them to run behind me before raising their knives and pointing at the figure: "Who are you?" ”

"Hehe......" The other party smiled and took two steps forward, and when I saw the other person's face clearly, I couldn't help but shudder—he was exactly the same as the old man who was fighting against the Hanging Mirror Division.

I tipped my gaze back and forth between him and the battlefield twice before I asked in a deep voice, "Are you the first corpse chaser?" ”

The other party smiled: "Wu Xiaoyou, Sanxi is goodbye, are you okay?" ”

"Ancient head?" Only then did I hear the other party's voice clearly-isn't he the old liar who deceived me twice in a row and turned Dou Po upside down, Gu Piaoran?

"Exactly down there." The old head said calmly, "This is not the place to talk, let's talk about it in another place!" I happen to know a good place, but I don't know if Wu Xiaoyou dares to come with me! ”

I waved my hand and said, "Please!" ”

The ancient head walked past me quickly, and after taking us around twice, I gradually lost hearing the shouting of the Hanging Mirror Division, but I felt like I was walking in the direction of the snake village: "Ancient head, where are you going to take us?" ”

The old head said: "Don't say anything, just follow me, your life will definitely be in danger if you stop now." ”

Jiang Yan asked in a trembling voice behind us: "Brother Ang, let's just follow along, how can I ......?"

I shouted angrily, "Shut up! If you want to follow, you will follow, and if you want to die, I will die first! ”

Jiang Yan didn't dare to follow us because the old head was dressed as a corpse chaser. However, they can only follow it now, otherwise, it will be a dead end.

In the case of extreme panic, it is easy to have a goat mentality, that is, to follow the leader and run forward with one mind, even if the other party is taking a dead end, they will also follow.

I dare to go with the old head because I have no conflict of interest with the old head. People in the rumor can deceive people to death, but they never do things that have no benefit. The first two times I had contact with Gu Gu, he had the upper hand, but he never tried to kill me, because I didn't interfere with his business.

After leading us for some distance, the old head pointed to a cave in front of us and said, "Go, follow me in." ”

In Xiangxi, there are many mountains, many waters, and many caves. In some places, the caves even extend like a labyrinth. The bandits in Xiangxi were plagued by bandits, which was not unrelated to the unique terrain here.

The old man didn't wait for me to say yes and burrowed into the cave, and after a moment's hesitation, I followed him into the cave. After I followed him out of about ten meters, the original winding and narrow cave suddenly became clear, and just by listening to the echo in the cave, I could judge that the cave was at least a few hundred square meters in area.

Although there was no light in the cave, I could faintly see a vague figure.

Standing in the darkness, the old head whispered, "I've lit a fire." However, before that, you have to be mentally prepared that what you see for a while is not a pleasant thing. ”

I sniffed slightly: "Aren't they just a few corpses?" Let's start the fire! ”

The old man took out a lighter and lit the oil groove on the rock wall, and the whole cave was illuminated as day as the winding and rugged light of the fire coiled along the surrounding rock wall.

Although I had been prepared for the smell of decay in the air, I was also shocked when I saw the terrible scene in front of me. The underground of the cave was covered with corpses, and at first glance it looked like the entire stockade had been taken into the cave and slaughtered.

The girl hiding at the back of the team couldn't help but hold her head and scream, I could only turn to Lu Xiaoying and say, "Xiaoying, help me control them." ”

But the old man said to me calmly, "Look at it again, what else is strange about this cave?" ”

As I looked past the mountain of corpses, I saw a large altar with a glittering golden serpent statue in the center. Half of the snake's body hung above the altar, but the other half was connected to the cave, and at first glance it looked like a golden-scaled python crawling out of a crack in the mountain.

I looked in the direction of the snake from a different angle, but found that the snake body in the rock crevice was not shoddy because it would not appear in front of the public, and every scale on it was meticulously carved, and even now it can still shine with dazzling golden light.

I pulled out my long knife and approached the altar and tapped it to the mouth of the golden snake a few times, but the snake's originally closed mouth opened to the limit, revealing the throat that looked like a pipe behind it.

I turned on my flashlight and looked at the dark pipes: "This is the place where the Miao people use to worship the gods, right?" ”

"To be precise, it is the holy place of the snake village, where they worship the snake god. A living snake god. "You see that the mouth of the snake is the entrance to the snake's den, and when the snake god inside hears the call of the great witch, he will crawl out of the statue to enjoy the tribute, and when he is full of wine and food, he will crawl back to rest." ”

"Day after day, year after year, even if the spirit snake in there doesn't cultivate, it should almost become a god, right?"

I said in a deep voice, "You brought me here just so I could listen to this?" ”

"Of course not." The old head said, "You listen to me tell you slowly." ”

The old head said: "The people of the snake village believe that their gods can bless them with good weather and good weather, so they sacrifice to the snake god at all costs, and even sometimes bring living people to sacrifice. Over time, the snake god here has also become the climate. ”

"After a dream of the snake god, the sorcerer of the snake village led almost all the people of the village into the altar, ready to be guided by the snake god. However, that time, someone broke into the snake village. ”

"Not only did he kill the men, women, and children in the village, but he also took their gods with him." The old head knocked on the statue on the wall and said, "So, this is just an empty shell." ”

I frowned and said, "You go on!" ”

Gu Tou said: "At the beginning, the foreign enemy came all the way from the gate of the village, and no one could be its edge, and even the most powerful guard in the village was stoned to death by him and his head was cut off. Those who entered the altar were certainly not spared. ”

"However, there are exceptions to everything. At that time, there was a child who was crushed by his mother, but he survived and became my employer. He hired me to find out who was responsible. ”

I said in a deep voice: "When did the Snake Village Bloody Case take place? ”

The old head said calmly: "A hundred years ago. At that time, the state had not yet been established. ”

I picked up the clothes from a corpse on the ground with a knife and looked at it carefully. I can't deduce the exact time of their deaths, but I can tell that they have been dead for years.

I put down my clothes before saying, "Does this have anything to do with me?" ”

"Yes!" "After a few months of searching, I can finally conclude on one thing. That is, the murderer forcibly took away the snake god back then, just to cultivate an extremely domineering Gu worm, and he needed a spirit snake as nourishment for that kind of Gu worm. ”

"When I was tracking down the killer, I stumbled upon someone doing the same thing with me. We all knew each other's existence, but we had a tacit understanding that there was no head-on conflict, because they felt that they couldn't take advantage of me. ”

The old man pointed at Jiang Yan and said, "Originally, the old man could still use rumors to deal with them, but after this group of people broke in, things changed completely. ”

"These people have broken into what we regard as important clues again and again, and when they arrived, there were no clues, and finally we had no choice but to prepare to play tricks on them. But ......"

The old head paused slightly: "However, before those people could make a move, they left the territory of Xiangxi, and we also found that what we were desperately looking for was gone." ”

I said in a deep voice, "Are you looking for Gu worms? ”

"Of course!" The old head bluntly said, "Of course! So who doesn't want a domineering Gu worm? If you get it, not to mention invincible, at least you can dominate one side. However, the other group of people were furious, saying that they would infiltrate the Central Plains, arrest them all, and ask about the whereabouts of the Divine Gu. ”

"However, there are also people who are sure that they don't have to look for it, and they will come back as well. Because, they have the Divine Gu on them. They are not the great witches of Miao Jiang, and they will not suppress or tame the Gu worms, and sooner or later they will have to come back for medical treatment. As long as they come back, we can find the Divine Gu according to our abilities. ”

The ancient head said in a deep voice, "During the time they left, we also made a plan. Because, none of us knew whose mother worm of the Divine Gu was, so I formulated a fairer plan. ”

"That is, from the time they came back, they took turns to shoot, each of them once, took one of them away, and tested whether they had the female worm of the Divine Gu on their bodies. Whoever can get the mother worm depends not only on eyesight, but also on luck. ”

The old man only looked at Jiang Yan and the others when he said this: "So, they are all prey." After they are captured, it is difficult to say how to take Gu out. ”

I squinted my eyes and said, "How many people want to hunt the female worms?" ”

"As far as I know, there are at least three batches of masters." The ancient head raised his finger and said, "You have already seen the people of the Imperial Corpse Sect and the Spirit Ghost Sect, but the Gu Sect has not yet made a move. Still, I think they're about to do it. Of course, you can also count me in, because I'm also interested in Divine Gus. ”

I said in a deep voice, "I don't like to beat around the bush. What is the purpose of bringing us here, you can just say it! ”
