Chapter Twenty-Three: Blood Gu
The Gu in early summer is a blood Gu.
Take golden silkworms, poisonous snakes, toads, centipedes, poisonous scorpions, live maggots and other poisonous insects and put them in the human blood urn to fight, wait for nine hundred and eighty-one days, and finally come out alive The highly poisonous maternal poisonous insect ate the rest of the poison, drank all the human blood in the urn, and finally became the first Gu. And after the Gu Keeper got the First Gu, he irrigated it with human blood day and night, fed the ghosts, and used secret medicine and charms, so that in the dark, he used the unknown forbidden method to train for 7749 years, and when the First Gu matured, the Blood Gu gradually became formed.
At this time, the blood Gu was fierce and vicious by nature, so poisonous that the person who touched it died, and practiced the immortal body in the fierce competition for survival, with extremely strong attack power and cruel means, and in forty-nine years of domestication, it was indeed a rare killing weapon in the world. This domineering and ferocious blood Gu was rampant more than a thousand years ago, in the bloody rain and bloody wind, the person in the Gu died a tragic death, which could not only turn into pus in an instant, but also slowly boil people to death, which simply made all the Taoist people in the world talk about blood Gu and change color.
It's just that no matter how powerful things are, they can't withstand the passage of time.
Now that thousands of years have passed, the art of blood Gu has long been lost, and the limelight of blood Gu back then has rarely been talked about, and the method of raising and the strange symptoms of the Gu cannot be explained in detail, but as a forbidden technique, the loss of blood Gu is a good thing that everyone is happy after all.
And now, this lost forbidden technique has been revived in the Nankang family in Dongcheng.
Chu Xia's grandfather didn't know when he mastered the method of raising blood Gu, and when he was thirteen years old in early summer, he did not hesitate to plant blood Gu in his granddaughter's body.
How can he figure it out in early summer, grandpa, he has always been a decent person, how could he be such an evil move....
At that time, this blood Gu that was carefully concocted by Li Ran and gradually matured was already a highly poisonous Gu worm in the period of oviposition and reproduction, it was in the body in early summer, absorbing all the resources in the body in early summer, and laying eggs all the time, starting from the age of thirteen in early summer, those Gu worms matured one by one, wandering in the body in early summer, symbiotic with early summer, and gradually the blood of early summer was eaten clean by Gu worms, and the warm and moist blood vessels all over the body were excellent resting places for subworms, so that the sub-Gu produced by the mother worm became the blood of early summer!
The female worm can control the subworms, and the female worms themselves are already extremely powerful, and with the help of a bunch of overwhelming subworms, it is no wonder that the blood Gu has been rampant in the world and no one is invincible.
In this way, Chu Xia has survived as a Gu cultivation container until now, hovering on the edge of life and death every day without knowing it. In other words, she was vaguely aware of it, but she didn't want to face it, thinking that if she ignored it, she wouldn't exist, after all, she was alive, after all, she was so forgetful.....
But the truth doesn't exist if you don't face it. Many times, the bad reality, if not dealt with quickly, it will only get worse.
The consequences will become more and more obvious before you know it.
You see, the consequence of the escape is that Hatsuha is now seventeen years old, and the blood in her body has been completely replaced by the bloodworm, and the mother worm resides in her forehead, holding all of Hatsu's thoughts (perhaps this is the key to Grandpa's ability to master all of Hatsu's actions) - and if necessary, Hatsuha's behavior can be controlled. In other words, the useless Nankang early summer can exist as a useful weapon because of the blood Gu.
"Grandpa...."Chu Xia endured the afterglow of pain, panting for cold breath, she didn't know that she was already an existence as a Gu person, in fact, she was happy that she had a strange skill before, in fact, she didn't know much about the danger of blood Gu until now, and her heart was cold for most of her grandfather's memories of her own Gu.
Although she didn't understand much, she knew that Gu was poisonous.
Grandpa, he really didn't care about the so-called family affection at all.
But at the time of the desolation of self-pity in early summer, Mingyu, who was originally half-held, suddenly stretched out two slender fingers to probe her snort, and then he grabbed her neck with a very fast hand, and brought the already weak early summer to the corner, in the struggle of surprise and fear in early summer, Mingyu's eyes were cold, and he only said lightly: "You are dead." β
"Ahem.... Cough... Why do you say that! Feeling Mingyu's cold hand fiercely pinching her own onion-like neck, probably as long as she exerted a little force, she would be strangled to death, she felt a bone-chilling coldness from head to toe, it was really sad, except for grandpa, other people didn't take her life so seriously? Her legs hung in the air and kicked desperately, but Mingyu had long hands and long legs, shackling her behind the wall, and she couldn't reach him at all, let alone kick her down.
"There is no snort, no heartbeat, and no judgment of your face."
"Too ..... It's sloppy...."In the early summer, she struggled to highlight a few words, enduring the previous dizziness and the pain of suffocation now and finding a chance to explain for herself, and it was at this moment that she suddenly remembered that the handsome guy in front of her was a Taoist, and the Taoist priest has always taken it as his mission to eliminate demons and defend the Tao, and now he is a demonic existence that is not a human or a ghost is dangling in front of his eyes, and he left so many bad impressions before, he eradicated himself casually, and killed the demons who came to the door to maintain the stability of the Yin and Yang worlds.....
Ah, but, but, why did it become an abnormal thing for her to live?
Thinking of this, the tears of early summer came down again, and her face was red from lack of oxygen, and now her eyes were red and swollen, and the whole look was very embarrassing.
Bang β
There was a loud bang.
A vase smashed straight towards Mingyu, Mingyu's body shook, and he reacted very quickly, only pinching Chu Xia's hand slightly loosened, while the other hand caught the vase steadily. It was also at this time that early summer desperately struggled with the shackles of the cold hand, but it was useless, she was still pressed against the cold wall, let the inexplicable cold in the wall invade her muscles and bones, her hands and feet were cold, her vision began to blur, and her consciousness was not so clear, this time she might really have to return to the west, for this, she felt desperate.
"Stinky Daoist, let goβ"
It was Liuche, who woke up when he heard a strange movement, but as soon as he arrived at the scene, he saw Mingyu pinching Chu Xia's neck with a calm expression. So Liuche casually picked up a vase beside him and decisively threw it at Mingyu.
It's a pity that it didn't hit, but it also made Mingyu's hand holding Chu Xia's neck loosen slightly, so that she didn't hurt so much, and she could open her mouth to express her defense, and as soon as Chu Xia was able to speak, her mouth immediately moved: "You can't kill me!" First of all, I didn't come to this point of my own volition, and I didn't do anything bad, and now I'm conscious and alive! You are so indiscriminate, and I am killing people, not killing demons and killing demons! Secondly, my life was originally saved by you, if you wanted to kill me, you shouldn't have saved me when I fell in a pool of blood and couldn't wake up, and now you want me to die again, feel the pain of death - you are not killing me, you are abusing me!! β
I don't know if it's because Hatsu Summer's self-justification is too convincing, or if Hatsu is too visually striking with her roaring and crying nose in front of her, or just because Hatsu is so emotional that her snot, tears, and blood mix and splash on his expensive and clean suit, making him feel bored - in short, he let go of Hatsu Summer's containment, and gradually let go of his hand in the cold gaze of Liu Chesen, who slid from the wall to the ground, gasping for breath to escape death.
Who said she didn't have a snort, wasn't she still able to gasp? Even the cold of the lungs in contact with the air can be felt so clearly-
"Your breath is just a remnant of your knee-jerk as a human being, and so is your heartbeat." As if seeing through the thoughts of early summer, Mingyu said casually: "When you lay down in a pool of blood before, it was probably the last replacement, there was still a trace of the appearance of a living person before, but now it is simply a living dead, my rescue of you is just to forcibly place your soul in your almost empty body, so that your body has enough time to buffer and not decay quickly due to the loss of souls, and by the way, it is better to see what the self-healing power of your Nankang family's body isββ"
β.....β
"And in fact, now I understand that even if your soul is scattered, your body will repair itself very well, but at that time, the Gu poison in your body will completely dominate this body, and the person who planted the Gu will be able to harvest his puppet in advance, and my soul fixing technique will allow you to regain the dominance of the body.... But now it's just a matter of making you a soulful body, and you're essentially dead: your body can't make fresh blood, and your organs have long since lost their vitality and become lifeless..."
"Yes." Chu Xia laughed miserably, is she already dead, how could it be, she is only seventeen years old, and she is already dead now? It's over? How can it be... I, I don't want to die....
Oh, my dear grandfather, what is your purpose in making this such a non-human and non-ghost? Even if you want to add a little combat power to the Nankang family, why bother to make your granddaughter into a Gu person?
Grandpa, what do you think? What do you want to do?!!
There was a faint smell of conspiracy, from the disappearance of her grandfather to the present, she had to face the fact that she was dead. In addition, she didn't care about grief, she seemed to see that in the darkness, a huge chessboard had been arranged, and the invisible hand was wantonly fiddling with the fate of the people in the game.
I'm afraid that there will be something more terrible than her own death, and she may be just a sad victim.
Hearing all this, Liuche was also dumbfounded, he couldn't accept the statement that early summer was dead, but Mingyu was so powerful, he couldn't find the basis for his nonsense, in fact, Mingyue's words and deeds were very convincing, his whole body trembled, his heart seemed to be struggling violently, and his mind suddenly recalled the day when he first saw early summer, obviously it was an unfriendly encounter, but it made himself who was immersed in darkness have a sudden joy of seeing the light, which made him imagine the future, the loss of this light.... Liuche clenched his fists, carefully hiding the slightest fear of being a Gu person in early summer, he stood in front of early summer, and said very hardly: "Even so, I won't allow you to touch a single hair of her!" β
He silently said to himself in his heart, even if I am afraid, I am willing to overcome that shameful fear and protect you.
"These are the reasons why I was disrespectful to early summer before." Seeing Liuche's hostile eyes, Mingyu sneered and continued: "Since Chu Xia didn't do anything to harm the world, God has the virtue of a good life, and I won't kill you for the time being." But if, ifβ"
"If I do something bad, you won't show mercy?" Chu Xia continued: "Your routine, oh no, I know all your rules, don't worry, for my little life, uh, I seem to be dead, well, for my soul not to die so soon, I will definitely follow your rules as [rules]!" β
