Chapter 13: Spirit Gu
In Yue'er's room, Ah Zhu was walking around the room, anxious like ants on a hot pot.
"It's been a long time since Miss went out! Why haven't you come back yet! ”
Ah Zhu thought in pieces, circled left and right in the room, desperately turning in circles.
This person is unfamiliar with the place, and in this kind of place, the young lady is so beautiful, in case...
The more Ah Zhu thought about it, the more anxious he became, and a person instantly performed a big drama in his mind about a young lady being abducted by a traitor, calling every day unacceptable, and calling the earth to be ineffective.
What can I do? Thinking of this, Ah Zhu's scalp couldn't help but tingle.
Squeak!
The sound of the wooden door being gently pushed open sounded, Ah Zhu raised his head, and Jiang Rou had already appeared in the room.
"Miss! You're back! I'm in a hurry! When Azhu saw the young lady coming in, she jumped up excitedly and grabbed Jiang Rou's clothes.
"What are you anxious about! Didn't I say I was right next door? What do you think? Is Yue'er awake? ”
Jiang Rou spoke, sat down, poured herself a glass of water and drank it, not to mention, after tossing for so long, she was really a little thirsty!
"Nope! Miss, you said let me look at it, you can rest assured! Even if I wake up, I can stun them, am I great! Hey! ”
Jiang Rou drank the water casually, changed into the clothes she had come, and walked out of Yue'er's room.
"Yo! Did the two sons leave so early? How's it going, are you still having fun today? ”
Jiang Rou had just walked down the stairs, and the bustard, who was busy in the hall, hurriedly greeted him with a smile.
"It's okay!"
Jiang Rou shook the fan in her hand, replied to the old bustard's words, did not stop, and swaggered out of the Xunfang Pavilion with Azhu,
"I'll come back to play more often in the future!"
The old bustard watched Jiang Rou walk out of the door, shouted loudly at Jiang Rou's back, took out the ruby on his waist as he spoke, and kissed it vigorously.
————————————————
When the two of them returned to the inn to clean up, it was almost dawn.
Ah Zhu fell asleep on the bed tiredly, but Jiang Rou on the side lit the oil lamp and sat aside.
She raised her right hand, and the small emerald worm from before slid out of her fingertips like a pearl and landed on the inn's table.
"Squeak! Creak! Squeak looked at Jiang Rou and shouted quietly.
"Alright! I know I've worked hard for you today, that! Extra food for you! ”
Jiang Rou said, stretched out her fingers, lightly tapped Squeak's head, and then took out a spirit bead from her arms, put the Lingzhi next to Squeak, and watched the little guy happily pick up the Lingzhi and gnaw it wildly.
It should be really hungry, today I first drugged Yue'er and Wei Yingying's maids, and then gave Cui Yi drunken and corpse Gu, and the little goods in my stomach have long been emptied.
"Eat slowly! Don't choke! ”
Jiang Rou looked at Squeak, raised his fingers and gently stroked Squeak's chubby head, and his thoughts drifted back to the vast grassland far in the northwest.
Squeak is so smart, I don't know if it knows, its real owner has already returned to Jiuquan.
Thinking of this, Jiang Rou couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and a memory belonging to the real Jiang Rou appeared in his mind, the grand event of the grassland witch clan six years ago.
It turns out that the real Jiang Rou has been obsessed with the witchcraft and poison matching techniques of the Hezhe Wu clan in addition to liking horseback archery since she was a child.
The grassland is not like the Great Zhou.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, witchcraft was regarded as an evil art and was strictly forbidden by the imperial court.
In the grasslands, outstanding shamans have an incomparable status among all ethnic groups, and they are very respected, just like the enlightened masters of the Central Plains.
Six years ago, real ginger meat was just ten years old.
Her master, the best sorcerer in Hezhe Country, the high priest of Hezhe Palace, took all the sorcerers of Hezhe Kingdom, including Jiang Rou, to the edge of the crescent moon spring in the deepest part of the desert to welcome the birth of the spirit Gu once in a hundred years.
Jiang Rou remembered the scene vividly, she followed her master, and when they arrived, the vicinity of the Crescent Moon Spring was already surrounded by sorcerers of various tribes.
These people, led by the high priests of the countries of the Western Regions, divided into groups and pairs, waited on the edge of the Crescent Moon Spring, and they were waiting for the legendary spirit Gu to be born.
Spirit Gu, the Gu King that all wizards in the world dream of, the head of ten thousand Gu.
Ordinary Gu worms all grow in the jungle, to put it bluntly, they are insects with some fantasy abilities, and before they have their own masters, they are no different from ordinary insects.
Only after being adopted by the sorcerer and using his own essence and blood to feed him will he become a Gu worm in the true sense, and will be controlled by the sorcerer from then on, and can save people or kill people under the control of the sorcerer.
As for the Spirit Gu, they live in the desert and are only born once every hundred years, choosing their own masters.
Spirit Gu is born without any unique abilities, but as long as it sucks the venom of other Gu worms from the human body or from other Gu worms itself, it will have the abilities of other Gu worms.
The most important thing is that the Spirit Gu can not only cast Gu poison, it is also a medicine bag that is invincible to all poisons.
It can put poison into its stomach and throw it out when its owner needs it, and as long as all the poison passes through its stomach, it will become colorless and tasteless, and even the best poison in the world will be difficult to detect.
It is no exaggeration to say that having a spirit Gu is equivalent to having all the Gu worms and the most powerful poison in the whole world.
Therefore, there has always been a saying on the grassland, whoever has the spirit Gu will become the most powerful sorcerer in the world.
This is indeed the case, I heard from the master that the previous master of the Spirit Gu was still his master's master, and it was said that he was the most powerful sorcerer in the world back then.
But no one thought that there were tens of thousands of sorcerers guarding the crescent moon spring that day, and in the end, the spirit Gu would choose a girl who was only ten years old to be its master.
Jiang Rou clearly remembered that at noon that day, the sun was very big, the sand in the desert was spraying hot, and everyone was sweating profusely, but they were all staring at the heart of the crescent moon without the slightest impatience.
The sun finally rose in the sky, and at last, a turquoise halo suddenly flashed from the eye of the crescent moon spring.
"Look! It's a spirit Gu! ”
There was a sudden uproar in the crowd.
A green jasper, shining in the scorching sun, flew out of the spring, surrounded by blue mist, and floated on the surface of the pool of crescent moon springs.
Everyone present held their breath, for fear that the Spirit Gu would not be willing to fly towards them because of their breathing.
Jiang Rou stood beside the master, and she clearly remembered that it was the first time she had seen the master tremble nervously since she could remember.
The master must also be looking forward to the spirit Gu flying towards him, Jiang Rou thought to herself.
But. Even Jiang Rou herself didn't expect that the Spirit Gu hovered in the air for a moment and actually flew towards her.
It was then that she became the new owner of the Spirit Gu in the presence of tens of thousands of sorcerers and became a legend among the steppe sorcerers.
For the ability to control Gu insects and refine all kinds of illusion drugs and poisons, Jiang Rourou is definitely second to none among the younger generation of sorcerer disciples in the grassland.
The master often praised her for her outstanding talent, and she was a creative talent who learned the art of witchcraft.
Since then, he has been even more fond of her, and almost wants to cultivate her as the next high priest.
But in the end, she didn't do it because of the opposition of her father and He Zhexuan.
The reason is that the high priest is a sacred symbol in the grassland, and becoming a high priest means that you cannot get married for life.
With his father's love and He Zhexuan, it is naturally impossible to agree.
