Chapter 40: The King of Gu

Miao Hou lives in a very ordinary house on stilts, and the furnishings inside the house are extremely simple and spotless. A discerning person will know at a glance that it is the residence of a person who has been raising Gu all year round. Empress Miao had already taken off the black veil on her face at this time, which also made her feel a little less mysterious.

Miao Yiling has become very cautious since she entered this room, and when she took Zhao Feikong to Miao Hou, she stood aside respectfully and said no more.

"Sit down, don't be restrained. After Miao finished speaking, Miao Yiling sat down.

Zhao Feikong was not polite, and asked directly: "I don't know if the Miao Empress called me, is there anything wrong?"

They all seem to have forgotten that Miao Yiling is the real "Miao Hou" at this time.

When Empress Miao laughed, she showed a little bit of the kindness peculiar to the old man, and she smiled and said, "I should actually apologize to you, this time it is entirely because of me that I have involved you." I also hope that the association will not be surprised, and the Miao Gu faction and the association will continue to cooperate in peace and quiet in the future. ”

Zhao Feikong thought that in fact, the person who really attracted him was Miao Yiling, but she definitely didn't tell Miao Hou about it, and she didn't have to do it again. Instead, he asked curiously, "Empress Miao, can you explain this whole thing?" I still can't figure it out. ”

Empress Miao looked at Miao Yiling and said, "You are the smartest of my four disciples, you should have figured it out by now, right?"

Miao Yiling nodded: "You should have already discovered that Miao Xueyan was in contact with the ghost world, and you also guessed their conspiracy, so you pretended to be seriously ill and lured them into the bait." Moreover, at that time, the association happened to send Zhao Feikong and the others, and you began to plan and formulate a succession competition, pretending to expose the gap between the association and the Miao Gu faction, so that they could speed up their actions and take the initiative to show their feet. You then hide in the shadows by cheating on death, so that they feel that everything is a foregone conclusion, and they will be more unscrupulous in doing things. In fact, even if Zhao Feikong didn't come forward to debunk it, in the end, you would still be able to wipe out the conspiracy between Miao Xueyan and the ghost world. ”

Miao Yiling continued: "However, I have never guessed, how did you convince them that you were really killed?"

Empress Miao shook her head before speaking: "Although I have a plan, without Mr. Zhao's help, it would not have been so simple." Once they act quickly and completely master the Miao Gu Sect, it will be difficult for even me to turn the sky upside down with one hand. ”

Miao Yiling was still staring at her, waiting for her to answer her questions. This question is indeed also lingering in Zhao Fei's hollow, Miao Xueyan and the ghost world Liyan are not like such easy to deceive.

"It's not too early, I'm old, it's time to rest early. Miao Hou closed her eyes and said softly.

Zhao Feikong knew that he seemed to be a little troubled, so he said goodbye and left with interest.

Mr. Zhao walked slowly. Yiling, help me send off the guests. Later, I have something to tell you. ”

"Good. Miao Yiling got up and sent Zhao Feikong to the door.

After Zhao Feikong went out of the door, he stretched out his hand and asked, "My magic sword should be returned to me, right?"

"Stingy. Miao Yiling returned to her usual appearance at this time, rolled her eyes and handed Yizheng into his hands, "I can make you famous in the warlock world this time, why don't you thank me quickly?"

Miao Yiling saw that Yi was automatically turned into a ring on Zhao Feikong's hand, and exclaimed: "This thing still recognizes the master, there is no reaction here for me, it is like a piece of scrap iron." ”

Zhao Feikong now felt that maybe she was not as simple as she seemed on the surface: "When you snatched the magic sword from the Mountain God Enchantment, you calculated this day, right? I don't believe that things will be so coincidental, and you can maintain an unusually calm attitude from beginning to end, and get the position of the queen of seedlings in the last move." ”

Miao Yiling's face remained unchanged, and he asked with a smile: "How come?"

After speaking, she turned around and went in, leaving only Zhao Feikong with a back.

Zhao Feikong was stunned in his heart, and said to himself: "How many times do I have to look at her back?"

Miao Yiling didn't know any of this. As soon as she returned to the house, she saw that Miao Hou was still sitting there, and for some reason, she suddenly felt weak.

"You want to know how I deceived them, do you?" asked the Empress with burning eyes.

Miao Yiling didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Miao Hou, and nodded lightly.

"I didn't deceive them, I was really old and really sick. Moreover, I underestimated the Liyan in the ghost world too much, so I was assassinated by them. ”

"Master, what do you mean, I don't understand......" Miao Yiling suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Can't you see that I'm dead. ”

"This ...... How is this possible, Master?"

"Don't be afraid, Yiling, listen to me, although Miao Rou has a cautious temperament, she is difficult to withstand pressure and is always useless. Xue Yan and Ying Han are good, but their ambitions are too great, and the current Miao Gu Sect can't afford to toss anymore, so you must not keep these two in the future!, you know?"

"Yes, Master!" she said yes.

"Yiling, you are the successor I really want to choose. Today, I will tell you the biggest secret of our Miao Gu Sect. ”

"Master......" Miao Yiling couldn't believe it.

"Do you know the Gu King of the Miao Gu Sect, why so few people in the history of our sect have refined it, even to the point where it is almost lost?"

Miao Yiling shook her head, and she already had a vague answer in her heart.

"Because the Gu King needs to use himself as a container, put several kinds of poisonous Gu in the world in his body, let the Gu worms fight and kill each other desperately, release all the Gu poisons, and finally be digested and absorbed by the human body. At this time, the whole person became a poisonous body. You say, 'Is this man still alive?'" The more she spoke, the more her tone rose up, as if she were joking.

Miao Yiling couldn't laugh at all, she never thought that the refining process of the Gu King would be so tragic!

"Miao Xueyan is too cautious, she is afraid that ordinary Gu poison will not kill me, so she will put all the highly poisonous Gu worms that can be used into my body. How did she know that this was in line with the Gu King's refining outline - to die to life and be reborn as a Gu ......"

Miao Yiling subconsciously took a step back.

Empress Miao didn't care at all, her expression became more and more crazy: "How can I die from Gu poison at the cost of my life! Even if I use my life to refine myself into a Gu King, I won't die as she wants!"

The Miao Empress in front of him made Miao Yiling feel less and less recognizable. In the past, although she had an odd temper and behaved perversely, she had never shown such a crazy appearance.

After a while, Miao Hou calmed down by herself, like a real powerless old man, but it made Miao Yiling's heart chill even more.

Unexpectedly, Miao Hou suddenly said in distress: "I can't control myself more and more...... Perhaps, the time has really come......"

After she finished speaking, she leaned back in her chair and did not move, her body gradually drying up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and cracks appeared on her skin, and even kept falling off......

Until a gust of wind blew through the hall, they turned into powder and dissipated without a trace......

Suddenly, a crystal clear white butterfly flew up in the dust that gradually dissipated. After circling a few times, it landed on the back of Miao Yiling's hand.

The beautiful butterfly melted into her body little by little like a liquid, and finally left only a faint white mark on the back of her hand.

This is the king of Gu, the secret of the Miao Empress of the past dynasties......
