Chapter 105: Gu Technique
The moment the knife touched Xiao Zhang's flesh, I felt as if I had macheted a piece of leather armor, and the texture of the palm of my hand was full of toughness.
I thought that my strength had improved a lot in the past few months of training, but I didn't expect that the knife that used all my strength really landed on Xiao Zhang's body, but it only left a one-centimeter-deep hole.
The other people's results are not great, basically it is almost the same as the damage caused by me, the only one that caused more damage is the knife that Crouching Tiger crosses over, and with the support of enough impact force, it directly pierced into about four or five centimeters.
This is definitely not the toughness that human skin can reach, what exactly happened to this diver Xiao Zhang?
"Roar!" As if he didn't feel anything, Xiao Zhang let out a roar similar to that of a beast, regardless of the knife on his body, his hands stuck in the neck of the crouching tiger.
We shuddered, and then, the knife in our hands danced wildly, and the speed increased a lot, if it was a normal person, it would have been cut into minced meat in a few clicks, but it was cut on this Xiao Zhang's body, which was not too deep.
My eyes were solemn, and I didn't know how long it would take for Xiao Zhang to lose his mobility.
Even if it is a direct chopping hand, it will not be able to rescue Crouching Tiger in a short time and a half.
Crouching Tiger's face was a little red, and his trembling hand reached into his pocket, and he struggled to pull out a yellowed paper talisman and put it on the top of Xiao Zhang's head.
This rune paper looks like it is some years old, even if it is not the same batch as the one that was pasted on the head of the fierce spirit, it should be passed down by Master Crouching Tiger or the master, and its effectiveness may be quite extraordinary.
But the moment the talisman was attached to the top of Xiao Zhang's head, I realized that I was wrong, and it was very wrong.
The rune paper didn't play any role, and it hung lightly on Xiao Zhang's head, as if mocking.
Crouching Tiger's eyes were wide open, and he looked incredulous, and then he thought of something.
"This is Gu, and there is some kind of enhancement in the body of the Gu person, it should be a high-level variety!"
A few words were squeezed out between his teeth, and he could see the whole blood vessel bulging in his throat.
My heart suddenly froze, and my eyes subconsciously glanced at the direction of Qian Lao.
In the tomb of King Yan Zhao before, we had already suffered the loss of Gu, and since there was no master in the team who specialized in dealing with Gu, the last time we saw Gu, we could only run away helplessly.
As a sorcerer of the Shang Dynasty, it is quite reasonable for Xia Yan to raise Gu worms, and a thoughtful person like Qian Lao must have been prepared.
I saw that Qian Lao nodded, and the person who was wielding a machete suddenly took out a small piece of yellowed object from his pocket.
Crushed this object and gently placed it in the distance, this object emitted a strange fragrance, and suddenly Xiao Zhang seemed to feel something, his whole body froze, and then his whole body collapsed outward.
Crouching Tiger gasped one by one, and the whole person struggled to get up, patting his chest with some fear.
Fortunately, the performance of the Gu worm's function enhancement is only in terms of speed and the body's ability to resist blows, and its strength is only a little greater than that of a normal person.
Otherwise, in just the time of this effort, I'm afraid he would have been strangled to death.
"Let me introduce, this is Lin Qian, a person from the Outer Eight Elements Gu Sect." Qian Laoyi helped Crouching Tiger up, and pointed to the other person who took out a small yellow piece.
Outside the eight lines, Gu Gate!
My pupils shrank sharply, and I glanced at the man very cautiously, I was not too strange to the Outer Eight Elements.
Even if my inheritance comes from the Outer Eight Elements Thief Door Reversal Dou Bloodline, so I also went to find some information about the Outer Eight Elements for a while.
In the outer eight elements, the most terrifying thing is the Gu Gate, there are many techniques in the Gu Gate, but all of them are full of evil energy, and the most familiar thing for people is the Gu Technique of Chasing Corpses.
Originally, the Gu Sect was thin, even if there was an unpredictable ability of gods and ghosts, but it was difficult to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes, and it was not until the end of the Tang Dynasty that the Pai Sect in the same Xiangyin land was annexed by the Gu Gate, and the Gu Gate was officially included in the Outer Eight Elements.
Among the Outer Eight Elements, the Gu Sect has the fewest people, but it can be ranked among the Outer Eight Sects with very few people, which shows that it is extraordinary.
It is said that there are also masters who are good at Gu art in the line of thieves, and they have left some records in their biography.
So I have some vague understanding of how terrifying the Gu Gate is.
Although Lin Qian doesn't look big, he really has a lot of muscles on his body.
"This is the incense that is specially used to deal with Gu worms in the Gu Gate, fortunately, this Gu is just a Gong Gu, if it is a mother Gu or a soldier Gu, then this incense may not really work."
"The effect of this incense is also about thirty minutes, it is not easy to stay here for a long time, and the incense I prepared for the tomb this time is also limited, if I waste too much here, then I am afraid I will not be able to go back."
As he spoke, a solemn look flashed on Lin Qian's face, and he immediately said to everyone.
Most of us don't understand the aspect of Gu worms, but we still understand that what Lin Qian said makes a lot of sense.
"Without further ado, tie up Xiao Zhang with that rope and set off immediately."
Qian Lao nodded solemnly, and the moment he spoke, other people immediately understood, and the rope taken out of the package tied Xiao Zhang firmly.
Once all this was done, the team immediately headed deeper into the tomb.
After this incident, all the people were extremely vigilant, Gu worms are social creatures, and the appearance of one Gu worm means that there will be more Gu worms in the tomb.
And compared to ordinary Gu worms, there are more terrifying tomb worms.
We're just in the cemetery area now, and we've learned a very bad news, and if we continue to walk inside, we don't know what kind of mechanism there will be.
Probably because the tomb was excavated, there was no hidden mechanism inside, and we didn't touch any of the mechanisms during our walk.
After walking for 20 minutes, I saw a vertical bluestone slab in front of me.
The edge of the bluestone slab has obvious traces of artificial carving, which looks like a door, and the Shang script on it is carved with four characters.
It's the same as the lines you saw at the entrance of the tomb before, but the lines here are more complete, and it looks like there's almost no damage.
"Be careful, there may be Gu around here." Qian Lao stared at the bluestone slab, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and immediately let out a roar.
Diver Xiao Zhang was hit by the Gu, if there is a bluestone slab across here, and the bluestone slab has no signs of opening, it means that Xiao Zhang is planting Gu outside the bluestone slab.
