Chapter Twenty-Four: Gu Worms
"What?! It's been seven days!? If it weren't for the frowning brows, he was taken aback: "Why didn't the young general take me?!" ”
"How do I know!" Mu Zixiao suddenly remembered what had happened in Nanping Town before he came back, the strength incident of the disappearance and death of those teenagers and girls, and wondered: "Could it be that I went to investigate the affairs of Nanping Town?" ”
If it weren't for listening to his words, he slapped his forehead, screamed that it was broken, turned his head and ran, Mu Zixiao chased after him for less than two steps, and couldn't see the figure, and said angrily: "Can't you one or two make it clear before leaving!?" ”
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't run away, Mu Zixiao walked three laps in place depressedly, yes! Wan'er? gave Uncle Zhang an explanation, turned around and left the house, and went straight to the small shop he had been to last time, but when he got there, he found that the shop had changed people, and he couldn't get in at all.
Frustrated, he went back to the house, I don't know how many laps I wandered in the room, until late at night, I saw that Ruofei came back with a tired face, and it seemed that he was injured, Mu Zixiao hurriedly stepped forward to help him and said urgently: "What's the matter?" Who hit. ”
"Mu Gongzi, skin trauma." If he hadn't shaken his head, he didn't seem to want to say anything.
Mu Zixiao also said anxiously: "You say! What the hell is going on, one is injured, the other is gone, are you going to kill me in a hurry?! Although he was anxious, he still pulled Ruofei into the house and gave him medicine, his body was bruised, but his fists and feet were not knife wounds, and Mu Zixiao's heart was slightly lowered.
If it weren't for the fact that he was in a hurry, he still opened his mouth: "Mu Gongzi, the young general entered the palace to ask to see the emperor, and he wanted to lead troops to attack southern Xinjiang." Hiss! ... You tap, it hurts. ”
Hearing the attack on southern Xinjiang, Mu Zixiao ran away, accidentally took the medicine heavier, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." ”
If it weren't for grinning, he continued: "The Second Emperor impeached the young general, the two fought in the next dynasty, the young general took some people to Nanping Town, General Huo was furious, and he also found someone to chase the young general in the past few days." The eldest prince said that before leaving, the young general told me to stay and watch you recuperate. ”
"So, your injuries were caused by General Huo?" Muzi said with a smile, his son fought with the prince, no wonder General Huo Lao was angry, it must be strange that he didn't persuade Huo Nanqi, and continued: "Why do you suddenly want to attack Southern Xinjiang? Did he go to Nanping Town to investigate the incident? ”
"Well, General Huo is angry that the young general was too impulsive, and he took someone away without consulting him." If you pause for a moment and continue: "I guess that the sudden attack on southern Xinjiang may have something to do with those who were killed, do you remember the wound on the girl's neck?" ”
Mu Zi smiled and nodded: "Remember." ”
If he continued: "It's like a wound left by a Gu worm, I'm afraid this matter will involve the two countries, if they are doing these things in their own territory in the southern Xinjiang, we can't interfere, but if it kills us, then the war will definitely be inevitable." ”
"What is the origin of that Gu worm? Will Huo Nanqi be in danger, can you take me to Nanping Town to find him? Muzi smiled.
If it weren't for a sigh and said: "Mu Gongzi, the young general didn't even bring me, don't think about it, this matter must be extraordinary, I'm afraid that the young general knows something, but I still haven't figured it out, the eldest prince is in Beijing, and there are many secret guards in the house, why did the young general leave me?!" ”
"Don't dwell on this first, tell me first, what is a Gu worm? Will Huo Nanqi be in danger? Muzi said with a smile.
"Mu Gongzi, I beg you not to catch me, I just finished being beaten, it hurts!" If it weren't for frowning, Mu Zixiao hurriedly let go of the arm holding him, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I love to catch people when I'm in a hurry." You continue. ”
If it weren't for rubbing his arm, he continued: "Gu worms are unique to southern Xinjiang, and their Gu women there will specially collect some highly poisonous things, usually poisonous snakes, scorpions and other poisonous reptiles, those who can fly and run on all fours are not allowed, and then put all kinds of poisonous poisons in a closed container, let them fight each other in it, until the last one left is called Gu . And there are many kinds of legendary Gu species, the most important of which are two of them: one is called "Dragon Gu", which is similar in form to a dragon, and is about the result of long reptiles such as poisonous snakes and centipedes. One is called "Qilin Gu", which is similar in form to Qilin, and is about the result of short-bodied reptiles such as frogs and lizards, all of which can be used to harm people, and either is extremely disgusting. ”
Mu Zixiao seemed to feel a little disgusting, goosebumps rose all over his body, this kind of thing has not been seen yet, just thinking about it feels terrible, and hurriedly asked: "Then are they letting these poisonous insects go out to bite people?" ”
If it weren't for Dao: "No, if it's just biting, then there is no need to make people so afraid, their Gu is more of a curse, these raised Gu worms also need to eat human blood to strengthen themselves, and then this Gu worm will be refined into evil art by Gu women or wizards, and only women can be Gu women or wizards, if the Gu people want to harm someone, they will release Gu." ”
Muzi smiled: "What will happen to the person who is planted with Gu?" ”
If it weren't for the fact that he seemed to have palpitations, he said in a deep voice: "And the person who has been planted with Gu will disappear all over his body, and the death will be extremely tragic like a dry corpse, and the Gu worm that has sucked people will be more powerful, and after sucking one person dry in the crowd, he will quickly attach to the person else and continue to suck ** blood, until the person's essence and blood are gone, and then continue." ”
Xu is remembered what terrible picture, speaking of this, if it weren't for the fact that his face had become a little terrifying, he said in a low voice: "When we fought with Southern Xinjiang for the first time, we suffered a lot of losses from this Gu worm, and this time, the second prince may have impeached the major general because of this." ”
"Holy! And this kind of thing?! Isn't Huo Nanqi's trip more auspicious than lucky?! Hurry up, hurry up, I'm going! Mu Zi smiled and panicked, hurriedly approved his coat, went to the bed to get the money bag and wanted to grab the door, if he didn't hurriedly pull him: "Mu Gongzi, don't get excited, I'm more worried about the young general than you, but I can't take you this time, the young general should be afraid that something will happen to you to leave you in the house." ”
Hearing this, Mu Zi laughed and said angrily: "If not, Huo Nanqi treats you well, right?" Huo Nanqi treats me well, right? Let him go to danger alone at this time, can I stay still here! ”
If it weren't for the fact that he hurriedly grabbed Mu Zixiao, who was jumping to his feet, he said seriously and sincerely: "You misunderstood what I meant!" Mu Gongzi, the young general doesn't take you there has nothing to do with Gu worms, you don't have the kung fu to be around, they should be going to check on Gu worms, they must be careful, you can only add chaos if you go, the young general is thinking about you, you just wait quietly for him to come back, I believe that the major general is fine. ”
Mu Zixiao still frowned, and said uneasily: "Since there is such a disgusting thing as Gu worms in the war with Southern Xinjiang, wouldn't it be a sacrifice in vain, why did Huo Nanqi attack this time?" ”
"The second time is different, the first time I fought, I didn't know that Gu worms were so terrible, although he won, but he also suffered heavy losses, the second time, the master of the major general taught him the method of solving the cup, our battle should have been won easily, but, after avoiding the Gu worms, not avoiding his own people, he lost this battle, but the second prince decided that it was the fault of the young general, and since then he has always been against the young general." If it weren't for the fact that he gritted his teeth at the mention of the wind of words, Mu Zixiao repeatedly confirmed that Huo Nanqi would not be harmed by Gu insects before he was a little relieved, thinking of Huo Nanqi's master and the style of words that Ruo Fei mentioned, and said, "If not, can you tell me what happened when Huo Nanqi was sixteen years old?" ”
