Chapter 319: Gambling Gu
I hurriedly said, "Xiao Qi, take me to find the Gu Tao you said, that bell is very important to me." ”
Xiao Qi nodded hurriedly and replied, "You come with me." ”
We went all the way back, on the way, I also roughly figured out what kind of place it is, here is a Miao village that has been inherited for hundreds of years, called Natural Village, the whole natural village is about nearly 2,000 people, it is a large Miao Village on this side of Tianfu.
And Xiao Qi's father, Miao Tong, used to be the owner of this natural village, but he suddenly disappeared mysteriously a year ago, and then the entire natural village was taken care of by the high priest Shen Gu Po.
And that god Gu woman is the grandmother in Xiao Qi's mouth, we also had a relationship with her on the train before, and I was also rescued by her from the bottom of the cliff.
Now the whole natural village, the high priest Shen Gu Po is undoubtedly the highest leader in the village, but this is only temporary, now Xiaoqi is only seventeen years old, is the Miao saint of the natural village, there is still a year left, after her eighteen-year-old coming-of-age ceremony, she can take over the natural village and become the new leader of the natural village.
I don't have much interest in these Miao Villages' own class, and now I am most worried about Fu Xiaoqin, and at the same time, in addition to Fu Xiaoqin, I also have another person in my heart.
That person is the jade-faced rakshasa, at that time, in order to help me, the jade-faced rakshasa was cut off the cliff by Wei Zhuang, and he should have been killed under this cliff, but the strange thing is that when I was looking for the soul bell just now, I also looked for the body of the jade-faced rakshasa around here, but I didn't see any trace of her.
It stands to reason that the jade-faced rakshasa and I both fell from the same place, even if there was some deviation in the end, the distance between the two of us would not exceed 100 meters, but why, I searched all over that area, but I didn't see the body of the jade-faced rakshasa .
I asked Xiao Qi if she had seen another woman, Xiao Qi shook her head and said no, at that time, she and the Divine Gu Po only rescued me alone, and I didn't see anyone else around at all.
So I asked if there were any fierce beasts in this area, and Xiao Qi continued to shake his head, saying no, unless it was...
"Unless it's what?" I asked hurriedly.
"Nothing." Xiao Qi shook his head: "It can't appear, it may just be an illusion of mine." ”
"What's that?"
"Nope." Xiao Qi replied, "There are no fierce beasts around here. ”
I feel even more strange, since Xiao Qi and they haven't seen the jade-faced rakshasa and there are no fierce beasts in this area, where is the jade-faced rakshasa going?
Could it be that she didn't fall to her death, and woke up and left here? I took a look at the cliff and felt that this was unlikely, falling down from such a high place, even if I had been held by Fu Xiaoqin, I almost died, and the jade-faced Rakshasa had nothing, and it was impossible to survive.
For the jade-faced rakshasa, I must still be a little indebted, I didn't expect her to help me, if it weren't for me, she wouldn't have embarked on today's path, if she really didn't die, if we could still meet in Tianfu, I would definitely repay her.
Soon, under the leadership of Xiao Qi, we came to a place similar to a gambling stall in the natural village.
However, the gambling stalls here are very different from the gambling stalls in our outside world, because the way to gamble money here is not Pai Gow Mahjong, but gambling Gu.
The so-called gambling Gu is actually somewhat similar to dog fighting, cockfighting or cricket fighting in the outside world, in this Miao Jiang, in addition to dead things such as stone Gu and slice Gu, there are also some poisonous Gu refined from living creatures, such as golden cicada Gu, snake Gu, centipede Gu, etc.
The refining of this poisonous Gu is not difficult, usually Miao Wu will put some highly poisonous animals together, let them kill each other in a container, and when the time comes, open this container, and the one that survives is the refined poisonous Gu.
This kind of Gu is a living thing, it is highly poisonous, once it bites a person, it will definitely kill, and the only way to solve the Gu is the Miao Witch Society that refines this poisonous Gu, and even many Miao Witch refining the poisonous Gu, even he himself has no way to solve the Gu.
And at this time, in this gambling stall, they are betting on this kind of poisonous Gu, a glass container and the like, and the people who gamble Gu put their own Gu into it, let them fight each other, and the one who survives in the end can win the bet.
Miao Gu may be very mysterious and rare for people in our city, but for this kind of Miao Village with an ancient heritage, many people will.
When we entered, the first thing that caught our eyes was a huge divine beast pattern on the wall, which depicted a monster with a dark red body, shaped like a tiger, and a pair of wings growing on its back, I looked at Xiao Qi next to me and asked, "What is this pattern?" I think I've seen this pattern in your house too. ”
Xiao Qi hurriedly replied: "This is the Divine Beast Qiqi, the totem of our natural village belief. ”
"Poor Qi?" I paused for a moment: "Isn't it the fierce beast recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?" ”
"Hmm." Xiao Qi nodded: "But in our natural village here, Qi Qi is a Rui beast, it is said that in the war years of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, there were many robbers in our area, so that the Miao people here are not famous, and then there is a poor Qi appeared, all those robbers were eaten, and the local Miao people lived and worked in peace and contentment, so since then, the Miao people in this area have enshrined the poor Qi as a totem of faith in their own clan. ”
"Huh." I thought it was funny in my heart, how did this legendary poor who only likes to do evil become the Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves suffering here, but I didn't show this kind of amusement on my face, after all, everyone has their own beliefs, for example, some people believe in God, but they don't know that God is also the embodiment of evil in the eyes of some people.
"I've seen Poor Qi since I was a kid." Xiao Qi's sudden words made me stunned suddenly, and replied: "Are you kidding, that legendary thing doesn't exist at all, do you really believe it?" “
"I've really seen it." Xiao Qi said very seriously: "A very small Qi Qi is only the size of a cat, but this was many years ago, maybe I had a hallucination at that time." ”
"Just now you said that your friend is under the fairy wind cliff, and you asked me if there are any wild beasts around here, in fact, I just want to say that there may be poor strange things around here."
"Huh." It's really hard for me to connect the legendary beast with reality, and now I'm eager to find Fu Xiaoqin in the Soul Bell, so I didn't argue too much with Xiao Qi about this poor strange, and strode towards the place where the Gu was gambling.
A dozen Miao people were gathered around a table over there, and on the table was a transparent glass container, which was blackened by smoke, and inside was a brightly colored spider and a small snake with a pale green body.
The spider and the little snake were on both sides of the container, staring at each other vigilantly, and under the control of the two Miao people next to them, the little snake and the spider immediately got entangled together.
Everyone here looked a little nervous on their faces, staring intently at the little snake and spider in the container, and in about ten seconds, the spider bit the tail of the little snake, and in an instant, a cloud of black gas came out of the small snake that was originally pale green, and then its entire body stiffened and was poisoned.
There was a cheer from the crowd, and a dark-skinned young man in his early twenties scolded angrily and threw the money in his hand on the table very unpleasantly.
On the other side, a man with black teeth put away the money, looked at the young man with a smile, and said, "Ah Tao, you have lost a lot, you can't refine the Gu worms during this time, but you are still the apprentice of the high priest God Gu Po, didn't she teach you something useful?"
"Who said no." Gu Tao glared at the man: "Bet again." ”
"You still have Gu worms?" The man said with a grin.
"That's a lot." As he spoke, Gu Tao took out a bamboo tube from his arms and poured out a centipede about the length of a little thumb.
