Chapter 220: The Secret of Asako

If this kind of heart Gu really no one can solve it, it will be equivalent to announcing the death penalty to Duanyang, which will undoubtedly make him not even see a trace of hope. You must know that before we came, although we all knew that if we wanted to find someone to solve the Gu for him, there was not much hope, and the reason why we still came in the end was to come for that little bit of hope, and now if there is no hope for this last hope, Duanyang will really only be left with despair.
"I'm afraid there is only one person in this Gu world who can solve it, and that person is the patriarch of the Gu clan, Nangong Li!" Mazi thought for a moment, and then said.
"Nangong Li?" I frowned and exclaimed.
Hearing this result, I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart, if I want Nangong Li to relieve Duanyang's heart Gu, this is undoubtedly more difficult than ascending to the sky. Let's not talk about whether this Nangong Li can be found, just saying that he sent a blood baby to take our lives last night, it can be seen that this person will never save Duanyang for him, a person who is bent on dealing with us, no matter what the reason, it is impossible for him to help us instead.
I glanced at Duanyang, and saw that he was also smiling bitterly, obviously he also felt that it was hopeless to ask Nangong Li to solve the Gu for him.
Duanyang asked, "Could it be that apart from him in this world, there is really no one who can solve my Gu?" ”
"There is no one to understand, the patriarch of the previous generation of Gu clan has been dead for more than thirty years, and now only Nangong Li Fang knows the method of heart Gu." Asako nodded.
Duanyang's face was full of despair after hearing this, and finally he had to sigh helplessly and never make a sound again.
Seeing him like this, I was also extremely sad in my heart, and I wanted to comfort him, but I didn't know what to say, so I had to pat him and tell him that I would try my best to let Nangong Li solve his Gu.
Duanyang only smiled at what I said, obviously not taking it seriously in his heart, because everyone knew in their hearts that this time, let alone let Nangong Li solve the Gu for Duanyang, even if our own lives can come back safely, it is a question.
In this way, we did not dwell too much on this issue, because it would only make everyone's heart heavy.
The next three of us didn't talk much, we didn't walk slowly, after walking for more than three hours, then Mazi suddenly stopped, pointed ahead and said, "We have arrived, there is the village of the Gu clan in front!" ”
"Is it there?" I was stunned for a moment, and then I looked in the direction that Mazi was pointing to, and saw that a flat open field appeared not far ahead. In this open land, there is a larger village than the old village, the blue bamboo stilted building, looking at the fields outside the village from a distance, there are some villagers working in the field. If it weren't for Mazi telling us that this is the Gu Clan, outsiders would definitely think that this is an ordinary small village, and who would have known that the people living here would be the Gu Clansmen who made the whole Xiangxi frightened and fearful?
Now that we have arrived at the Gu clan in front of us, we have walked for more than three hours on the mountain road, and we are too tired to do it, seeing a few big stones piled up on the side of the road in front of us, Duanyang said that it is better to rest first, and then enter the village later. With that, he walked towards the boulders......
Hearing Duanyang say this, I also nodded, so I followed.
But just as we were about to sit on those rocks to rest, the pockmarks on the side suddenly cried out and said, "Can't sit!" Hurry up and get out of those stones! ”
"Can't sit?" Duanyang and I were both stunned, seeing Mazi's serious face, it didn't seem to be a lie, although he was puzzled, he was still busy pulling Duanyang back a few steps away.
Mazi pointed to the stones in front of us and said, "That's a stone Gu, you can't touch it!" ”
Stone Gu? I frowned, and hurriedly asked Mazi what kind of Gu this was.
Mazi then told us that these stones were actually used for Gu magic, and they were placed outside the stockade to deal with outsiders. If an outsider comes across these roadside stones without knowing the situation, then these stones will fly into people's hands and feet, and within three or five years, people will die.
Hearing this, Duanyang and I were both startled, and our hearts were so dangerous!
At the same time as I was shocked, I also looked at the pile of stones in front of me again, and found that these stones were the same as the stones we had seen before, so I asked curiously, "How do you see that these stones have been Gu?" ”
Mazi said: "These stones are placed outside the village all the year round, and all the people of the Gu clan, regardless of men, women, and children, know about it, but they are not enough for outsiders." Moreover, these stones look no different from ordinary stones on the surface, but if you listen carefully, you will find that these stones will make a sound, this is a stone Gu, and you can't touch it! ”
I was very curious, so I approached the pile of stones, crouched down and held my breath and listened, and then I really heard the sound of whimpering from time to time in the stones, obviously what Mazi said was right, these stones were really wrong.
After this thrilling experience, I also know how powerful the Gu clan is, this is really a place that people can't guard against, it seems that we should be more cautious in the future.
Then we sat down on the grass on the side of the road, while resting, Duanyang also gave me some dry food, after using dry food, it was already afternoon, and then Mazi took us up and walked towards the Gu clan's village......
The Gu people's village is even more dilapidated than their hometown, and many of the walls made of stones are dilapidated houses and huts.
Follow Mazi into the village, along the bluestone path to the inside, many villagers are hanging yellow corn and fiery red peppers on the low courtyard walls, and the village can be seen everywhere free-range chickens and ducks. From time to time, there will be villagers passing by, they are all dressed in traditional clothes, they are curious to look at us, but after entering the village, Mazi pinned her sleeves, revealing a centipede tattoo on her arm, when those who are curious to look at us see the tattoo on Mazi's arm, they will withdraw their eyes and stop looking at us.
I heard Brother Su say early in the morning that everyone in the Gu clan has tattoos, and the reason why Mazi will expose her tattoos is obviously to let the people in the village know that she is not an outsider, and tell them to fight less of our ideas.
However, I took a look at Mazi's hands and found that her hands were white and tender, and she didn't look like a fifty-year-old Gu woman at all, because her hands didn't match her age at all. What makes me even more curious is that Mazi is a member of the Gu clan, and this is also the hometown where she has lived since she was a child, but looking at the reactions of those villagers, it is obvious that everyone does not know Mazi.
At this time, I couldn't help but look at the pockmarks twice, but now that I was closer, a closer look scared me. Because I found that the pockmarks on the pockmarked face were not real pockmarks, but bugs!
Yes, the pockmarks on her face are not pockmarked at all, because her black spots do not grow in her skin, but crawl on her skin, and they are very small insects!
At that moment, I pointed to her face and exclaimed, "Mazi, you...... ...... on your face."
When Mazi heard me say this, he was stunned for a moment, and then touched his face and said embarrassedly, "You found out?" ”
I nodded, a little scared in my heart, we had been walking together for so long, and I never thought that the pockmarks on her face would be bugs. If she wants to harm me with Gu worms, won't she make it impossible for me to prevent it? It's also fortunate that we are not enemies, otherwise we would really have fallen for her.
I asked, "How did you put the bugs in your face?" ”
Mazi said: "Men like beautiful women, I don't need men to like them, so it's better to be ugly." ”
Hearing this, I remembered the story about Mazi told by Brother Su again, and now it seems that the story about Mazi is becoming more and more real, maybe she is really because her lover of love has changed her mind, so she will cover her face with insects and deliberately make herself old and ugly.
While we were talking, suddenly several beautiful Gu women came into our eyes, all of them were slender, with peach blossom faces, dressed in Miao costumes, talking or laughing there. One of the women carried a small basket on her back, holding a bullwhip in her hand, and gently hit the cow, the old cow's simple appearance made people feel that this woman was pure and beautiful, and people were reluctant to blink their eyes.
At this time, Mazi said to me: "Don't look at it, the women of the Gu clan can't be easily actrained." ”
I don't need to understand this, once the woman of the Gu clan hooks up, she can't change her mind, otherwise she will definitely be killed by their Gu. Isn't this pockmark next to her such a woman? That passionate love is not something that every man can bear.
Retracting my gaze, I saw that we had entered the village for some distance, so I asked Mazi: "Is that Nangong Li's home still far from here?" ”
Mazi pointed to a short distance ahead and said, "It's not far, it's not long ahead!" ”
I nodded, and I began to get nervous for some reason, perhaps because I thought that I was about to find this person who was daunting to everyone in Xiangxi, and I couldn't help but feel a little worried, and I didn't know if I would be able to leave this village alive this time......
