Chapter 35: Cultivating Gu for Life
ββ
Jiangxin Island is an isolated island located on the river in Baihong County, Yunhai City.
The island is not very large, only about 30 acres of land. The road to the island is only one bridge, which is one kilometer long. This bridge is also a private bridge! After all, Jiangxin Island has long been bought.
The Serpent Lady got the island many years ago and has lived here ever since.
The snake girl is 38 years old this year, and she has been practicing Gu art for many years, but she has rarely made breakthroughs. Especially in the past two years, she seems to have changed as a person, and once threatened to never accept apprentices, but she accepted Ye Qing as an apprentice two years ago.
Ye Qing has always felt that the teacher has paid a lot for herself in the past two years, so that the teacher has no signs of breakthrough and progress.
But the real reason is only clear to the snake girl herself!
Today's snake girl is unusual, she has always been single, but she brought back a man. Only the fourth floor of the entire Jiangxin Island villa is lit up, and on the balcony on the fourth floor, there is an extra wheelchair, and a man with vicissitudes of life and half-white hair sits on it.
"Brother Hong, I have a good environment here, right?"
It was a woman with an outstanding temperament, but an indescribably haggard color.
The woman looks to be in her early 30s, wearing a long black dress, with a beautiful figure, and a beautiful appearance, which will always make men think about her.
But!!
She always gives people an indelible gloomy and dark color, and there is a trace of indifference and fierceness in her eyes. Although, she now smiles at the man who is sick in the wheelchair.
She is the snake girl, who has studied Gu art for twenty years, is proficient in all kinds of Gu arts, and is the leader of a clan branch in southern Xinjiang. It's just that the Gu clan was wiped out due to some changes, and she was the only one left.
She finally chose to return to her hometown, Yunhai City, Jiangzhou.
The man in the wheelchair frowned, his eyes were full of worry, and his hoarse voice sounded as if it came from hell: "Xiao Yun, that Xiaoqing is good to you and loyal, are you really willing to sacrifice her to me?" In exchange for my 10-year life? β
"I didn't plan to take in apprentices, but it was Nan Nizi who sent them to the door herself. I saved you three years ago, and I didn't plan to plant Gu. But, Xiao Qing is really too suitable for Gu cultivation! The snake girl took a deep breath: "Ordinary people will exchange your life span for three years." However, Xiaoqing's physique is naturally cold, and the Gu planted can make you live for 10 more years. - Probably this is providence! β
"So, is she coming back?"
The man asked again.
Xiaoqing nodded: "It should be soon." She said she would be back by half past ten. β
"Hmm~, if I can survive, I will definitely not lose you again this time!!" His tired eyes suddenly glowed, and he seemed to have a little more energy: "Ye Qing's death in exchange for my new life!" I will definitely live well in place of Ye Qing!! β
"Hmm.."
The snake girl nodded, hugged the man from behind, and said infatuatedly: "Brother Hong, don't worry, when I sacrifice Ye Qing, I will continue to find a new host for you." - I'll let you live like a normal person!! β
"Huh? Xiaoqing is back? The man looked from afar and seemed to see a car coming up from the bridge.
The snake girl was stunned: "It seems to be." β
It was a Volkswagen Polo that came in and there were two people in the car! One of them, the snake girl has never seen before, only in her early twenties, about one meter seven or eight tall, and looks ordinary.
"Who's that guy?"
The man pointed to Luo Ye below in surprise.
"I don't know." The snake girl said in a deep voice, "You just wait upstairs, I'll go down and take a look." β
Man: "Okay. β
β¦
Living room.
Ye Qing walked in with Luo Ye,
"Luo Ye?" When the snake girl heard Ye Qing's introduction, she frowned: "This is the one who helped Qin Lao cure the dark disease, right?" β
Yesterday, when Ye Qing came back, she told the snake girl about Luo Ye.
Qin Lao's business can't be done, it's a good thing that Luo Ye has done from it.
She looked at Luo Ye carefully and squinted her eyes: "Your Excellency is a Chinese medicine doctor?" β
"It's not." Luo Ye shook his head: "I just learned some qigong, which can be understood as using internal force to treat." β
"Internal strength can't cure Qin Lao's dark disease." The snake girl shook her head and said, "You want to deceive me, it's impossible!" - There must have been someone else who cured Qin Lao's dark disease, and you were just a shield that Jiang Hengtian had put out. Since that master doesn't want to reveal his identity, that's it! My snake girl is not short of such a list, and Jiang Hengtian can't lose his trust to me in vain. β
In fact, Jiang Hengtian called in the morning to apologize.
Jiang Hengtian owes this favor!
The pros and cons of gains and losses, the snake girl no longer cares.
"Mr. Luo came to me just to see Gu art?" The snake girl narrowed her eyes, "Do you know that the secret of Gu art is never revealed. Once it's shown, it's about having a real effect! ββAnd Gu techniques, most of them are mainly poison, killing, and healing. β
After a pause, she continued: "Mr. Luo is not sick when he comes, and he has no grievances with me, so naturally he can't use it against Mr. Luo. I'm so sorry! β
Luo Ye got up, "Since that's the case, then I won't stay longer." β
He naturally heard the meaning of the snake girl's eviction, and he would not stay longer. He looked at Ye Qing politely: "I'll leave first." β
"That.. Then I'll send you. β
Ye Qing followed and got up and left.

The snake girl was in the living room watching the backs of the two walking out, with a hint of unbearable color in her eyes.
Luo Ye walked to the car and looked at the balcony on the fourth floor.
There used to be a man in a wheelchair, but now he is 'gone', presumably inside the house!
"What are you looking at?"
Ye Qing only looked up at the fourth floor at this time, but saw nothing. Except for the lights on.
Luo Ye asked, "Whose room is that?" β
Ye Qing: "Teacher." β
"Hmm.." Luo Ye hesitated: "There are three of you living here?" β
"Nope. Do you see anyone else? Ye Qing was curious.
Luo Ye was stunned: "Hmm~, I heard that some people use Gu magic to save people, but it is just a life for a life technique, not orthodox." ββYour teacher's medical skills mostly come from Chinese medicine, and once you use Gu art to save people, someone will die. Do you want to come with me? β
"Huh? What do you mean? β
Ye Qing panicked and couldn't help but take two steps back.
"Don't you see that there's a man in the room who is running out of gas?" Luo Ye pointed to the fourth floor: "You should always know, the saying 'planting Gu to save people', right?" Although I don't know Gu arts, this point is still clear. β
Ye Qing swallowed her throat: "You, you said that my teacher planted Gu in my body to save other people and harm me?" β
Luo Ye was about to continue.
But at this time, the snake girl quickly walked out of the living room and grabbed Ye Qing: "Let's go Xiaoqing, it's not too early, I still have to do my homework today!" β
"Oh. Good teachers! Ye Qing said, but looked at Luo Ye in her heart, her eyes full of doubts.
In fact, she found that the teacher was really wrong today. Otherwise, Luo Ye would have talked about 'Gu worms' again, and she wouldn't have asked anything...
The teacher is dressed very beautifully today, not wearing a very simple cotton and linen dress such as white and gray as usual, and it is not like he is wearing such delicate makeup so late.
This is so abnormal!!
She wanted to know what Luo Ye had found, but the snake girl had already dragged her back, smiled apologetically at Luo Ye, and went back to the living room.
Luo Ye looked at the night indifferently, did not delay, and immediately drove away.
