Chapter 221: Master Miao's Secret

Lao Huang frowned and asked Master Miao: "We came this time to ask Master Miao to relieve the spell on his body." After speaking, he bowed his hand very respectfully.

"The Gu King Seal was invented by a Miao doctor of our old Miao clan more than a thousand years ago, but there are no more than 10 people who will use it nowβ€”all of them are old people in several nearby villages."

Lao Huang let out an "ah" and asked again: "What does Master Miao mean-is it difficult to lift this curse?" ”

Master Miao nodded: "There are no more than ten people who can crack it." ”

With a wave of Master Miao's sleeves, the black yarn immediately seemed to have wings and "flew" onto her face.

With his extraordinary eyesight, I vaguely saw a lot of tiny insects "lifting" the black gauze onto his head, and then disappeared behind the Miao Master in an instant.

It's bugs again......

The surprise in my heart is indescribable.

"But you're lucky, it's the Gu King Festival in Benzhai in two days, if you succeed in cultivating a new Gu King, the thousand-year-old Gu spell on your body will be unraveled."

After speaking, she asked the girl who brought us to lead Lao Huang, Lao Su, and Beibei to the next room, leaving me and Wang Qianmo behind.

"You two really don't remember me?"

Wang Qianmo and I glanced at each other and shook our heads in unison.

"We've met before, and we've been together for a whileβ€”but that was a long time ago."

"But...... But neither of us is yet twenty years old...... I don't remember seeing you! I scratched my head and replied.

"Not even twenty years old? Woo-woo-"

Master Miao laughed again.

"We're the same age!"

As soon as he heard this, Wang Qianmo couldn't hold back: "Peers? Seedling Master ...... Grandma, you look at at least ...... At least eighty years old, right? And we ......."

"Eighty? Hmph-" Lord Miao shook his head again, "I still remember that there was a kid from the Qin Kingdom who accompanied the prince of Qin to come to us and learned Gu art for a few days, and then ...... Later, I heard that he had become the national teacher of Qin, and he also tricked the king of Qin into pursuing immortality. ”

These words were like a bomb that made my head buzz.

"What do you say? King of Qin – Which King of Qin? ”

"The king of Qin, and later his grandson became the first emperor, and he also learned from his grandfather and pursued the art of immortality, but ...... However, it did not work out. ”

"The First Emperor? Old...... Master Miao! You can't be talking about Qin Shi Huang, right? ”

"That's right! Right! That's him...... I've been in this village for so long that I can't remember his name for a while. ”

I took a deep breath and asked, "You just said that Qin Shi Huang's grandfather came here?" But ......"

"But what? I remember I was just a teenager that year......"

"You...... It's impossible......"

Since I was a child, I have loved history, especially by memorizing the names of the kings of the past dynasties, probably because it was Qin Shi Huang's reign! I was very impressed by the last kings of the Qin State.

Qin Shi Huang's grandfather, King Qin Xiaowen, is one of the more bizarre kings of the Qin Kingdom, he was 52 years old when he succeeded to the throne, and died at his father's funeral just 3 days after succeeding to the throne.

Regarding the death of King Qin Xiaowen, there is no special record in the official history, but there is quite a lot of pen and ink in the wild history

I remember reading this passage to the effect of:

King Qin Xiaowen traveled at the age of forty, disappeared mysteriously, and only returned a year later.

In the past ten years, King Qin Xiaowen locked himself in the secret room almost every day, and later the people around him found that he gradually changed his appearance, and he had grown half a head taller......

Originally, King Qin Xiaowen had many brothers, and there were more than a dozen brothers alone. This is also normal, although the power of a monarch in the Warring States period is not as powerful as that of the emperors of later dynasties, but it is also a hegemon, there is no shortage of beauties around him, it can be said that he can sleep with whoever he wants, and there are naturally many heirs.

But the strange thing is that in the more than ten years since King Qin Xiaowen locked himself in the secret room, his brothers died mysteriously one by one, and the crown prince changed one after another.

The deaths of his brothers were also extremely miserable, some of them festered and died, and some of their bodies gave birth to strange little bugs...... In short, it's weird.

I know that in the twelfth year, that is, when King Qin Xiaowen was fifty-two years old, the previous generation of King Qin died, and only King Qin Xiaowen was left among his twenty sons.

As a result, he naturally became the new generation of King Qin.

This was not expected by everyone.

What was even more unexpected was that on the third day of his pole, he suddenly died.

The cause of death became a mystery in the history of the Qin state.

According to the concubines and several eunuchs who were sleeping that night, in the middle of the night, King Qin Xiaowen suddenly stood up, jumped to the ground naked, and then shouted "Go away!" Go away! and waved the sword in his hand.

The concubine was shocked, there was nothing in the house!!

What happened next was even more incomprehensible: King Qin Xiaowen actually shouted "itch, itch", and scratched every inch of his skin out of blood.

After five minutes, the person was gone......

After the death of King Qin Xiaowen, according to the national rules of the Qin State, all the concubines who had no heirs were all martyred. The concubine who slept that night was also buried alive in the imperial mausoleum, and his death has become a mystery.

……

King Qin Xiaowen died in 250 BC, more than 2,000 years ago - even if the Miao master lived longer, he would not have lived for 2,000 years, right?

I looked at Master Miao's face in surprise, and I didn't know what to say for a while.

"I just met the two of you a few years later, and then ......" Master Miao shook his head again, "What will happen in the future, since you don't remember, then don't talk about it!" ”

I'd love to ask, isn't it true that we've lost memories for 10 years, but 2,000 years? It's all sci-fi. But seeing the appearance of the Miao master, the words came to his mouth and took them back.

"What do you want to ask? Just ask! ”

Well? Hearing her say this, I casually replied, "Do you know what we think?" ”

"Woo-woo-I know, of course I know, the children have told me everything about you since you stepped into the stockade."

"Kid?" I looked left and right, "Your child?" ”

"It's them!" Saying that, the Miao Master waved his sleeves again, and countless small insects flew out of the Miao Master in an instant.

These little bugs come in a variety of colors.

When I looked at it again, the shoulders, the top of the head, the chest, and the thighs of the Miao master were also full of reptiles.

These bugs are very strange, some resemble centipedes but do not have so many legs, and some resemble scorpions but have antennae...... In short, it looks very strange.

"These are my children!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a name instantly came to my mind - Gu worm.

It turned out that her so-called child was a Gu worm.

"My children are amazing, everything that happens in the whole village can't escape their eyes, and naturally I know about it."

It dawned on me that this was the case, and the little bugs could actually ventilate the news!

Awesome!

I still couldn't help but ask the question I wanted to ask: "You...... Are you really over two thousand years old? ”

"I can't remember, but it's been a long time......"

"How is this possible?"

"Woo woo woo-" After a few more strange laughs, Master Miao suddenly stretched out his arm, "Longevity comes at a price!" You see, I'm still a human being! As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves.
