Facing everyone's questioning or dissatisfied gazes, Rong Ruo was calm and calm, and said with a shallow smile: "I found something, and I'm going to communicate with the head of Ji Yue." ”

Without waiting for Ji Yue to speak, the second elder stood up, "In that case, isn't there any need to continue digging pits on the side of the holy lake?" ”

That Danmu Lake is the holy lake in the hearts of the Miao Jiang people, there is a wisp of the soul of the god Ami sleeping in it, and it is the sacred and inviolable place of the Miao Jiang people.

"No." Rong Ruo raised his eyebrows slightly, "Let's continue digging over there, it's all started anyway, otherwise it will be a waste." What she didn't say was that Rong Ruo had noticed that there was a problem by the lake before, and she still trusted her own judgment.

And the mountain and the lake are so far away, and a few trees near that thing are withered, and everything else is fine, if this thing is so lethal, the trees on the whole mountain would have decayed together.

Therefore, Rong Ruo believes that the key to the problem lies in the holy lake.

But these naturally don't need to be explained to this group of old men, anyway, it takes a lot of words.

The Great Elder choked for a moment, listened to what he said, and continued to dig just because he was afraid of wasting the manpower before.

Ji Yue looked at Rong Ruo and said, "What did you find?" ”

Rong Ruo and Mu Beichen glanced at each other, took out a clay pot from his sleeve pocket, opened the mouth of the jar, and there was a handkerchief wrapped in it, without waiting for Rong Ruo to stretch out his hand, Mu Beichen waved his sleeves, brought a strong wind, and threw it directly at Ji Yue with the jar.

Ji Yue grabbed it with five fingers and easily grasped it in his hand.

"Boss, wait a minute." Seeing that Ji Yue was about to take something inside, the Great Elder hurriedly stopped him and said, "Let me take a look first." ”

Ji Yue's eyebrows didn't move, "No." He understood that the Great Elder was worried that these two people were playing tricks and plotting, after all, the Five Poisons were still very wary of outsiders.

However, Ji Yue had already picked up the handkerchief inside, but she didn't take it directly with her hands, looking at the white thing lying on the handkerchief, her eyes gradually deepened and darkened, and she didn't know what she thought.

Mu Beichen said lightly: "The head of Jiyue knows. "Say the affirmative without a little doubt.

The elders were curious, especially Wuzhang came to Wu Qi, he had already jumped over, and the great elder didn't have time to grab him, he leaned his head and looked inside, "What is it, jade?" We Miao people don't like jade pendants, you Central Plains people love to play with that Laoshizi thing. ”

The Miao Jiang people love silver jewelry, believing that silver is as pure as the moon in the sky, timeless, beautiful and full of mysterious brilliance.

The Great Elder's face darkened, this old fifth is always so big and not small, "Old Five, come down." ”

Karma scratched his hair, "Boss, I'll see what's wrong, don't you want to see it too?" ”

Grand Elder: "......"

Ji Yue grabbed the clay pot and raised her head, her eyes darkened, and she looked at Rong Ruo's gaze with an inquiry, "This is not jade, it is a Gu jade formed after many years, mixed with frost, dew, rain and snow." ”

Rong Ruo snapped his fingers: "The head is the head of the house, and he has knowledge." ”

Ji Yue didn't think Rong Ruo was praising people, "Where did you find it?" ”

Rong Ruo shrugged: "On the mountain next to your holy lake, right? The last two words were turned to Mu Beichen.

Mu Beichen shook his head: "Head Jiyue, you should recognize what kind of Gu this is." ”

Ji Yue's black eyes are compared to the silver mask, which always seems to sink without a bottom, the corners of his eyebrows are cold and sharp, his eyes are sharp, and his body is dressed in white, but it brings out a dusty coldness, "I don't know." ”

Rong Ruo pursed her lips: "This is found in your Miao Jiang clan, and it is also on the edge of the holy lake." "If you want to deny it, no way!

The others listened inexplicably, but their temperament was not as calm as that of the five elders, and although they were curious, they didn't dare to go over and take a look.

In the end, it was the Great Elder who came forward and asked, "Master, what's going on?" ”

Ji Yue turned her neck and threw the thing to the Great Elder, and after several people took turns to look at it, they were all a little puzzled, and even puzzled: "This ...... What is it? ”

"This is the Bird Hidden Gu." Ji Yue spoke, her voice clear, like falling snow, "I don't know why I appeared on the mountain. Therefore, his ignorance does not mean that he does not know this Gu, but that he does not know the reason for its appearance.

Before the other elders could do anything, the Great Elder was shocked, his hand holding the crockpot trembled a little, and his eyes were full of incredulity, "Sparrow, Sparrow Hidden Gu...... How could it be, how could it be...... It's long gone. ”

Rong Ruo raised his chin: "Isn't that in your hands, what's impossible?" ”

The Great Elder's lips trembled for a long time, and he couldn't say what he said later, he was really surprised that he lost the ability to think for a while.

"Southern Xinjiang Forbidden Technique......" Ji Yue's speech slowed down, and word by word fell on Rong Ruo and Mu Beichen's heads, with undisguised doubt in her eyes, "How do you know." ”

"I heard it by chance." Mu Beichen said.

Rong Ruo's brows jumped, you can't make up a story, would Ji Yue believe who would tell people passing by about the forbidden technique at every turn.

"Listen to whom?" Sure enough, Ji Yue asked as Rong Ruo thought.

Rong Ruogang gave Mu Beichen a look: Leave the following to me.

Who knows, Mu Beichen has already spoken: "It's inconvenient to inform Your Excellency." ”

Rong Ruo's eyes widened: Is it really good that you are dragging like this?

Ji Yue frowned slightly, and glanced at Mu Beichen deeply, as if she was examining something, but the result was unexpected, she didn't ask again, but changed her words, and said: "The Bird Hidden Gu arose hundreds of years ago, and it was refined by a southern Xinjiang witchcraft, and later found that this kind of magic was too vicious and destroyed human nature, so the patriarch at that time strictly ordered the clansmen not to cultivate. ”

The Great Elder came to his senses, raised his head and sighed, handed the jar to the Second Elder, and said, "Yes, it's just that people's greed remains in their hearts, and it is easy to create bad karma, so a hundred years ago, there was another Bird Hidden Gu. ”

"Everyone has heard of that war, but in fact, our southern Xinjiang is really ...... I'm ashamed to say it...... "Many people have heard of the use of Gu people and poisonous people entering the palace, but not everyone knows the details of this, such as how poisonous people and Gu people are made, after a hundred years, these are gradually forgotten."

The Great Elder also learned about the formation of the Dao Gu people from some sporadic records left behind, because the body was full of Bird Hidden Gu, which was equivalent to directing the Gu worm's actions, and the Bird Hidden Gu would also make the Gu people not die easily, and they also had a certain repair ability, mainly because they didn't feel pain, they didn't stop ordering, and they didn't stop fighting.

But the most cruel point is that the Bird Hidden Gu will slowly eat away at the inside of the human body, and the day it becomes a Gu person is when the Bird Hidden Gu completely occupies the body.

After hearing this, everyone sighed with emotion, and their faces were ashamed, "It's a forbidden technique, why is it appearing again now?" The fifth elder was straightforward, others wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, he asked directly.

Ji Yue lowered her eyes and said: "Gu has become jade, so it can't be formed in a short period of time, at least for decades. ”

Rong Ruo agreed, and said: "This Gu worm has long since died, and its last residual poison walked around the trees, which would cause those trees to die, in fact, it is just an ordinary insect now." ”

So when Feng Wu went to take it with his hand, Rong Ruo didn't stop it, otherwise he would have stopped it a long time ago, usually just joking, how could he really let him risk poisoning.

Of course, you still can't tell Feng Wu about this, lest that kid be too floating.

"What do you mean......" Ji Yue turned around, "the clansmen will show symptoms of poisoning, probably due to the poison left by this Gu. ”

Rong Ruo nodded and shook his head: "Master, you should have found that when it was first frozen into jade, it was poisonous, but now even if there is a trace of poison left on it, it is estimated that even an ant will not be poisonous." ”

Ji Yue's eyes moved slightly: "You let people continue to dig the holy lake, because you suspect that there are such Gu worms hidden on the edge of the holy lake." ”

Several people were shocked when they listened, and Mu Beichen said something even more shocking, "Maybe it's not just Gu worms." ”

If it's not just bugs, what else would it be?

"It's just that...... "Ji Yue's two fingers rubbed, and her black pupils were deep and dark," why did she appear in two places. ”

Rong Ruo sighed, as if he had just remembered something, "I forgot to tell the head of Jiyue, according to the soil and dead trees, this insect has existed on the mountain for no more than a month. ”

His gaze was like a torch, locking on Rong Ruo, and he said coldly: "Someone has been buried on the mountain in the past month. ”

Rong Ruoyi smiled and said, "The head of Jiyue is really wise. "It's not tiring to talk to smart people, and she admires this old man a little.

Different from what he imagined after the sugar pill was revealed in his mouth before, Ji Yue is a very rational person, and his temperament is a little indifferent, but this kind of indifference is not like Mu Beichen's nature, he doesn't like to talk, it is more like experiencing the ups and downs of the world and calming down, just like that mirror lake, only the surface is microwavering, but no one can peek into the depths.

Unlike other people in southern Xinjiang who are extremely repulsive to the Central Plains, he knows Rong Ruo's identity, but he never asks her about the purpose of entering southern Xinjiang and what she wants to do. didn't ask where he came from, he didn't ask about the way back, it didn't seem to be this five poison crisis, even if Rong Ruo passed by in front of him in Central Plains costumes, he didn't bother to take a look.

This person's eyes have never pretended to be anyone.

Rong Ruo didn't know why she had such thoughts, but she was in the wooden house that day, she looked at Ji Yue's back, and for a moment, she felt that he was full of sadness, as if the most cherished thing in her heart was gone, and she could no longer find the loss.

It was also a short moment, Rong Ruo was affected by his loneliness, and he actually felt a little sad in his heart.

is a very inexplicable emotion, which comes and goes quickly, causing Rong Ruo to think it is an illusion for a while.

"Could it be that the Wuyi Sect has stolen in...... the second elder has just put forward this idea and rejected it, "It shouldn't be possible, there are guards around the holy lake all year round, and no one can break in so easily." ”

Moreover, the sacred lake is separated by mountains, and it is difficult not to be discovered if you want to climb over the mountains and mountains.

The Great Elder shook his head and said, "Since the Wuyi Sect has had civil strife at the memorial service, the situation is still undecided, and there will be no time to come here to find trouble. ”

Thinking about it like this, I can't think of anyone who dares to murder the Miaojiang people, after all, in the southern Xinjiang, in addition to Miaojiang and Taqi, although there are many other tribes, most of them are not large-scale, and they really can't compete with these two big clans, so they rely on the two clans to form a confrontation between the two clans.

Rong Ruo couldn't help it, and interjected: "Why don't you want to think about your own people? ”
