I suddenly remembered that when I pushed Miao Wu into the black hole in the stone cave, even though she knew that she was doomed, she did not have the slightest awe or fear of me, but still believed in her so-called god and firmly believed that her god would make her reborn.

"Is the Witch Gu King a god, or is it a god made up by the Miao people?" I asked.

"There was a time when the Witch King existed as a god, at least his followers worshipped him as a new god." The high priest replied.

"New Gods." I smiled coldly.

The high priest should have heard the disdain and contempt in my smile, and immediately buried his head lower: "The Miao people are descendants of Jiuli, the Miao people believe in animism, worship nature, worship ancestors, among which there are allusions to butterflies and twelve gods in the origin, but these are all from the religion of Jiuli, and the Miao people believe in the twelve ancestral gods from beginning to end, but ......"

"Believe in the Twelve Ancestral Gods from beginning to end." I stared at the high priest in a cold voice and turned my head to look at Huang Ping. "You are also a Miao person, do you know the twelve ancestral gods?"

"No, I don't know." Huang Ping shook his head blankly.

"This is what you call from beginning to end, you are responsible for educating the people as a priest and preaching oracles, but you have done a good job, sitting in the holy tower all day long, being worshipped with respect, and in the end, you will forget who the god is." I looked back at the High Priest and said indignantly.

"It's not forgetting, it's ......" The head of the high priest was already buried in the ground, and the words behind him seemed to dare not speak.

"What is it?" I accentuated my tone.

"It's abandonment." The high priest hesitated for a long time before speaking. "After the Twin Cities of the Demon Kingdom, the twelve ancestral gods disappeared, the ancestors of Jiuli have never forgotten the shame of chasing the deer, and the belief in the ancestral gods has never stopped for thousands of years, and they have always hoped that the ancestral gods can lead the Jiuli Dongshan to rise again, but the ancestral gods have abandoned the ancestors of Jiuli, otherwise, it is impossible for the witch Gu King to take advantage of the void."

"Do you know the Demon Kingdom Twin Cities?!" Ye Jiuqing was taken aback.

"In the lineage of priests through the ages, the holy kingdom of the ancestral gods was mentioned, where the expectations of the ancestors of Jiuli for thousands of years were finally rekindled, and then ...... "The high priest's voice became quieter and quieter." And then there was no more, the god disappeared in the demon country, perhaps the descendants of Jiuli are used to waiting, and have always believed that the god who once cast the glory of Jiuli will one day lead Jiuli to regroup, even if the god disappears, but most of the descendants of Jiuli continue to believe in the ancestral god. ”

"Then why did the Witch King appear?" Gong Jue asked.

"The reason why this person can become a witch Gu king is that he himself has a close relationship with the twelve ancestral gods, and everything has to start with Gu."

The high priest did not dare to hide anything, and told us in great detail that Miao Gu has a long history, and it first appeared in the pre-Qin period, when many mysterious and bizarre insects appeared in Miaojiang, Jiangxi, and these were first used to cure diseases.

"Gu can still cure diseases?" Tian Ji subconsciously touched his back and asked with palpitations.

"A large part of the Miao witchcraft carries the miracles left by the ancestral gods, in fact, the world's understanding of Gu has always been wrong." The high priest said.

"What's wrong?"

"Everyone in the world thinks that if they put their poisons together and devour each other, the remaining poison is Gu, but in fact it is not."

"Gu isn't like this, what should it be?" Gong Jue asked in surprise.

"Gu first appeared, it was used to treat diseases and save people, but later someone used Gu, which evolved into the Gu poison that is now talking about tiger color." The high priest said.

"Witch King, he is the one who started it, and he turned the things used to save people into poisons that can kill?" I asked.

The high priest nodded, and continued to say to us, after the appearance of the Gu, it was regarded as a divine object, and only the priests of the past dynasties could master the use of the Gu at the earliest, and over time, the Gu prevailed in Miaojiang, but the real Gu was always in the hands of the priest.

Occasionally, it spread to Miao Jiang, but because the Miao people could not control and use it, over time, Gu and poison were combined, and it became the current Gu poison, because of the magic of Gu, so that Gu poison had unexpected aggressiveness, and gradually the Gu that was originally used to cure diseases and save people became a murder weapon for killing.

"What does this have to do with the Witch King?" Ye Jiuqing asked.

"The Witch Gu King is one of the priests, and when he was a priest, it happened to be when the Twin Cities of the Demon Kingdom appeared, and in Miao Jiang, he was the only person who could communicate with the gods, so in the hearts of Miao people, he had a supreme position."

"The Witch King is actually a priest? Then, then why did he finally boast of being the Gu King? Xue Xinrou asked puzzled.

"He was the person who had the most contact with Gu at that time, and he was also the person with the highest mastery of Gu art, as a priest, he accepted the oracle to the ancestral god and recited the divine decree to the clansmen, but the Witch Gu King spied on the secret of the god and spread the Gu to Miao Jiang without authorization." The high priest spoke eloquently. "This eventually led to the witch curse."

"The scourge of witchcraft?" Tian Ji scratched his head and asked. "What is the scourge of witchcraft?"

Before the high priest could speak, Huang Ping next to him sighed heavily and told us that he had heard the old man in the village talk about the scourge of witchcraft since he was a child, and this disaster had lasted for thousands of years, and it was only now that it had subsided.

But in the final analysis, the Miao people are the descendants of Jiuli, and the alien race in the eyes of the Han people is also called the barbarian, and the Miao people in Jiangxi are the Miao people who migrated here after the defeat of Jiuli, but since Yao Shun, they have never stopped driving and enslaving the descendants of Jiuli.

Therefore, the Miao people are a people who have suffered a lot of disasters, and in the history of the Miao people, they have suffered oppression and massacre for a long time, and Jiangxi has borne the brunt of these thousands of years of enslavement.

The successive dynasties continued to launch the campaign of conquest of the Miao barbarians, and carried out armed slaughter of the descendants of Jiuli who did not obey the king's law, and the Miao people could not bear it and resisted countless times, and finally failed because of the disparity in strength and strength.

Until the appearance of witch Gu, the Miao people saw hope again, and regarded Gu art as a means and way to protect themselves, but it was precisely because of the mystery and danger of Gu that the dynasties just found a reason to attack, and the ban on witches from the Tang and Song dynasties was the first to be implicated by the Miao people.

"Gu was originally used to save people, but I didn't expect that in the end, it became the reason and excuse for the Miao people to be killed, and countless Miao people died from the scourge of witch Gu, and the Gu that was once very popular in Miao Xinjiang also quietly disappeared." Huang Ping's voice was low.

"The Witch Gu King let the Gu spread in Miao Jiang at the beginning, maybe it was an unintentional mistake, but after the Witch Gu disaster, although the Gu is no longer as well-known as before, it has not disappeared because of this, but has begun to continue to be refined among a few Miao people." The high priest took Huang Ping's words and said. "Miao witchcraft began to divide at that time."

"How?" Xue Xinrou asked curiously, it is estimated that she had never learned about these things in Xue Shuqiao's research on ethnic minorities, so she was extremely serious, and recorded them in her notes while listening.

The high priest didn't tell me, at the beginning, only the priest could master the Gu, the Gu was sacred, and ordinary Miao people had no right or ability to master it, but with the development of the situation, the mastery of the Gu was divided into two types.

One is dominated by priests and holds the orthodox Gu, that is, the priests who are now called Yang Wu by the Miao people, who are inherited and passed on by specific people in the Miao village for generations.

Because the Gu mastered by Yang Wu is used to cure diseases and save people, he is more biased towards medical skills, good at herbal medicine, strange and difficult diseases, as well as traditional witch dances, and sacrifices to the ancestors.

And the other is a small number of Miao people who have mastered Gu, these people are called Miao Witches, and they are also Yin Witches, they are obsessed with the refining of Gu, except for medicine Gu, most of them involve Gu poison.

"However, whether it is a Yang Witch or a Yin Witch, what they have mastered is the tip of the iceberg of Gu, and only the Ancestral God and the later Witch Gu King are the ones who really completely master Gu." The high priest said.

"The real Gu, could it be that the current Gu in Miao Jiang is still fake?" The palace lord was taken aback.

"It can't be measured by truth or falsehood, if you really want to distinguish between them, after all, Yang Wu inherited the orthodox Gu, so it is higher than Yin Wu in terms of Gu art, but these two only touch the skin of Gu, and the real role of Gu is estimated to not even be played out in one-twelve." The high priest replied unhurriedly.

"Ah, something that can easily kill people, but it has only exerted one-twelfth of its abilities, and if it is all brought into play, it will be worth it." Tian Ji said dumbfounded.

"This is the world's misunderstanding of Gu, when it comes to Gu, everyone's first reaction is to kill people and poison, as everyone knows, the real Gu has unimaginable abilities, the Gu techniques that the Miao people can master today are just the tip of the iceberg, to be exact, even the method of how to make Gu is wrong." The high priest replied with a shake of his head.

"That's not right, we have seen Miao Wu making Gu in Dunan, she did put a lot of poisons together, and the rumored process of making Gu is exactly the same, and she also made a forbidden Gu." Xue Xinrou raised her head and asked the high priest seriously. "Why do you say that the method is wrong?"

"Gu is not made, let alone put some poison to bite each other to become Gu, that is just the most superficial and wrong way, but because no one has ever seen the real Gu, they believe that the wrong is true."

When the high priest said this, he got up and took down the mahogany box from the shrine, and opened it in front of us, and the golden silkworm inside wriggled on the mulberry leaves, and the high priest put the golden silkworm in the brazier, and the golden silkworm was immediately translucent, and was safe and sound in the fire without fear of the flames.

"These golden silkworms have been passed down by the priests of the past dynasties, and they are the only Gu that has been handed down in Miaojiang, and they are real Gu, don't look at the small and inconspicuous golden silkworms, but they are invulnerable and indestructible, and they are inadequate, such a divine object, do you think a few poisons can be made?"

"That golden silkworm is refined?" Ye Jiuqing also asked with interest.

"You're still wrong, no one can refine the real Gu, because Gu is a divine object that can only be created by a god."

"Gu was created by God?" I was taken aback and reacted quickly. "Could it be that the ancestral god created Gu in the demon country!"

The high priest slowly straightened up and nodded to me with a firm gaze: "Yes, this is the true origin of Gu, the masterpiece of the Twelve Ancestral Gods in the Demon Kingdom. ”
