46. Poplar Pass Gu Affair

It was about evening, Shen Lang carried Ru Jiaojiao to a small town called Baiyangao to settle down, the town was clean, mostly ordinary people, and in the end, a kind lady took them in.

Originally, if there was no accident in the middle! So at this moment, Ru Jiaojiao has already returned to the Valley of Hundred Flowers, fortunately, Ru Jiaojiao often passes by here, knowing that there is a small village nearby, so that the two of them will not have to sleep in the wilderness.

The eldest mother's name is Hu, there are children and daughters in the family, and her husband often goes to the mountains to hunt and supplement the family.

It's just that today I don't know why I haven't returned home for a long time, although Hu is anxious, but he thinks that there must be something on the road, and it will arrive later, so he didn't make a noise, but as time passed, until the third watch on the first day of the month, when it was time, Hu Shi was weak in his heart and began to be anxious.

"Aunt Hu, hasn't Uncle Dong come back yet?" Ru Jiaojiao asked.

Hu Shi shook his head and said, "Not yet, you say, if something happens to him, how will my family live."

Hearing this, Ru Jiaojiao and Shen Lang looked at each other, and their mood was also heavy, just when Shen Lang wanted to say that he would go out to find Uncle Dong for her, suddenly, Hu's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Old man~"

Following Hu's gaze, Shen Lang soon saw a figure staggering towards him from the direction of the village entrance.

"Old man~"

There was another shout, and at the same time as the shout, Hu ran out and ran to the man, Uncle Dong.

"Alas! I came back late for something on the way, which made you worried", Uncle Dong said.

"It's okay, it's good to come back, it's good to come back~ By the way, old man, you haven't eaten yet! I'm going to give you a hot meal."

"Who are these two?" As it was approaching, Uncle Dong asked.

"Oh! This is Shen Gongzi and Jiaojiao Girl, they are passing through this place, and they are here to stay overnight", Hu replied.

"Oh! It turns out that this is the case, the family is simple, and I hope the two of you will not dislike it", Uncle Dong smiled.

"Where, it is enough to have a corner to settle down, how can you dislike it, and thank you for taking care of it!" Ru Jiaojiao smiled.

"Let's go, let's go into the house together!" Uncle Dong laughed.

As he spoke, he went into the house with the Hu family, and looking at Uncle Dong's back, Shen Lang frowned tightly and had a deep face.

Ru Jiaojiao noticed that something was wrong with Shen Lang, so she asked, "What's wrong?" It looks like you're a little upset."

Shen Lang replied: "It's nothing, do you remember those things during the day?" If my guess is correct, this Uncle Dong has also been tricked."

Ru Jiaojiao was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "What about him?" ”

Unexpectedly, Shen Lang smiled and said, "You want to say why he doesn't have those people who are irritable and crazy like the daytime, right?" ”

Ru Jiaojiao nodded slightly and hummed lightly.

"It's very simple, what he is in is another kind of Gu, the Gu poison in the world mostly originates in Miao Jiang, there are many types, don't look at him at this time, there is no abnormality at all, when he attacks, it will definitely be another scene", Shen Lang said slowly.

"So what do we do?" Ru Jiaojiao asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, the Hu family treats me so enthusiastically, I won't leave them alone, Uncle Dong has obviously just been hit by Gu, from this point of view, the target of the Gu person this time is likely to be this Poplar Pass, maybe he is nearby at the moment, when I take this person down, all this will be solved", Shen Lang said.

"Then I'll help you," Ru Jiaojiao said.

Unexpectedly, Shen Lang directly refused, and said: "No, your legs and feet are inconvenient, I can deal with it alone, you just need to watch Uncle Dong at home, so as not to hurt others with his Gu poison attack."

"Hmm!" Ru Jiaojiao nodded slightly, her expression was particularly solemn.

Seeing that Ru Jiaojiao was looking at herself a little blankly, Shen Lang asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Hearing this, Ru Jiaojiao was in a trance, the light in her eyes suddenly dissipated, and her eyes turned elsewhere, saying, "Oh! It's okay, you stay safe and be careful."

"Don't worry, I'll pay attention, without further ado, I'll leave immediately, and you can go back to the house quickly!" Shen Lang said.

"Hmm!"

Immediately afterwards, the two separated, and Shen Lang also took advantage of the night to hide into the dark.

Since stepping into the middle stage of the Yudan, Shen Lang's ears and eyes have also become extremely sharp, even in the dark, he can clearly see the grass and trees around him, not to mention the faint moonlight tonight, so that the range of miles around the poplar pass is in his perception.

Shen Lang did not exude his divine sense to investigate, although his divine sense can detect a farther range, but some powers can clearly perceive this power, and this person is not coming from the right way, once it is perceived, it will definitely be a nightmare, although Shen Lang does not think that this person's strength is so deep to what level, but in order to avoid accidents, he still chooses not to do that.

Sure enough, as Shen Lang expanded the scope of his search, he found a trace of abnormality in the southwest direction of Baiyang Pass, there was a person, this person was suspended in mid-air, and there were countless small poisonous insects around him around him, or together, or scattered, it was very weird, and Shen Lang could smell a foul smell from afar, like a rotting corpse.

This person's face is very ugly, and there is a gloomy and weird look all over his body, needless to say, this is another evil cultivator who is evil to the bone, but he only has the strength of the early stage of foundation building.

For evil cultivators, Shen Lang would not be soft at all, and as soon as he shook his hand, the Qingxuan Sword flew out.

The Qingxuan Sword was killed in an instant, which aroused the person's awareness, and he saw a loud shout: "Who dares to hurt people secretly."

As soon as he raised his hand, countless Gu worms rushed up, turning into a sharp spinning top and defending the Qingxuan Sword together, with a crisp sound, the Qingxuan Sword bounced out and was inserted not far away, but although he forced the Qingxuan Sword back, this person's face was not very good-looking, because he had lost a lot of Gu worms in the confrontation just now.

Knowing the details of the other party, Shen Lang no longer hid it, but strode out of the forest, and with one move, the Qingxuan Sword returned to his hand.

"Who are you? I have no enmity with you, so why did you attack me? The man shouted.

At this time, Shen Lang deliberately lowered his cultivation, and in his eyes, Shen Lang was only on par with him, and they were all monks in the early stage of foundation building, so he was so unscrupulous and dared to scold, if he knew that Shen Lang was a monk in the middle stage of the Jiedan, I am afraid he would not be so hard.

Shen Lang didn't mean to answer the other party's question, but asked coldly, "Did you cast a Gu on the nearby villagers?" ”

The man frowned when he heard this, but he did not repent, but stretched out his hand and shouted, "So what? I advise you to be nosy".

Suddenly, Shen Lang swung his sword and slashed, and immediately, a Gu insect hidden in the tree was cut in two by him.

"Boy, you dare to kill my Ice Silkworm Gu King", the man's eyes widened and he opened his mouth to shout.

The cultivation of the Ice Silkworm Gu King was extremely difficult, in order to cultivate such one, he had spent more than ten years of hard work, and he wanted to use the kung fu of talking to wait for the opportunity to suck Shen Lang's skill essence blood to help him improve his cultivation, but he had already been discovered by Shen Lang and slashed it with a sword.

"Humph! Shall I not kill it so that you can sneak up on me? Shen Lang's eyes were gloomy, and he shouted coldly.

Immediately after, Shen Lang waved his sword and shouted again: "I will now give you two choices, one is to remove the Gu poison you planted for the nearby villagers, and then I may leave you with a whole corpse; Second, I will kill you now, so that you will be destroyed and never be reborn."

"Arrogance! I will refine it into a Gu Chrysalis and suffer for eternity", the man shouted, and in an instant, countless Gu worms swarmed towards Shen Lang.

Shen Lang also knows a little about Gu Pupa, the so-called Gu Pupae is about to use living people or animals as a cultivation base for Gu poison, which includes hundreds or even thousands of Gu poisons, they fight each other and fight each other, until the last one left, it is the king of Gu worms.

This process lasts for more than ten years, until the last trace of essence in the host's body is exhausted, and then it breaks out of the body, which can be described as extremely cruel.

And although these Gu worms in front of him were not as powerful as the Gu King, they were numerous, densely packed, there were tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, and they were within five meters of Shen Lang, and suddenly, Shen Lang held up a light shield to block it out.

But in an instant, Shen Lang discovered that these Gu worms were actually devouring his Yuan Force, and they were extremely fast.

"What a weird Gu worm! Can you devour my Yuan Power? Shen Lang was horrified and muttered to himself, just imagine, if he was really only weak or even weaker in the early stage of foundation building, I am afraid that these Gu worms alone would be able to gnaw him away.

"Humph! Just because you want to block my Jin Yuan Gu worm, it's just wishful thinking, give me to eat him."

As he shouted, these Gu worms became more and more irritable.

"Humph! Is it? Break it for me! ”

It's just that he underestimated the person in front of him, underestimated Shen Lang, and with a cry of "Break!" Immediately, the light mask around Shen Lang exploded directly, directly killing a large area, and with a wave of his hand, a cluster of faint blue flames flew out, emitting a scorching high temperature.

In an instant, countless Golden Yuan Gu Worms let out a squeaky scream as if they had seen a ghost, and under the scorching blue fire, one of the Golden Yuan Gu Worms began to fall from the sky, suffering heavy losses.

"What kind of fire is this?" The man exclaimed in horror.

"Earthfire Core Inflammation".

Yes, this fire is the high-level fire that Shen Lang got from Di Jiuyou, but unfortunately there is no origin fire, and it is used less once.

The fire spread rapidly, and in an instant, all the Jinyuan Gu worms were included, listening to his heart and liver treasure making a terrible scream in the raging fire, that person was so hateful that his teeth itched, and he couldn't wait to cut Shen Lang into thousands of pieces, crushing his bones and scattering ashes.

"Boy, I'm going to kill you", the man said with a distorted expression, and pounced on Shen Lang as he spoke.

"Humph! Look for death".

For such a person, Shen Lang will not have the slightest mercy, five fingers and a hand, in an instant, all the Jin Yuan Gu worms are buried in the raging sea of fire, at the same time, the figure is blurred in an instant, the sword light flows rapidly, and in an instant, the person was hit by dozens of swords, and when Shen Lang withdrew his hand, this person had already thrown it into the distance.

"How is that possible?" The man's face was full of horror and disbelief.

At this moment, his limbs were completely ruined, his cultivation was completely destroyed, and he had completely become a wasted person, and what was even more terrifying was that the Gu poison in his body began to backfire, making his eyes red and his blood gushing.

"Ahh~"

A terrible scream sounded, and at this moment, he finally tasted the inhuman torture of the Gu poison attack, but it was a pity that he was already a wasted person, unable to move, even if he was bent on death, there was no way to die.

"Ahhh

Seeing that this person's hair began to fall out, his whole body began to fester, and one Gu worm after another kept wriggling in his body, devouring his flesh and blood, Shen Lang couldn't help but feel a little frightened, and his scalp was numb.

"Please, let me die~Let me die~" The man shouted bitterly, I'm afraid that at this moment, only death is the best destination.

"Humph! Do you also know the pain of a Gu poison attack? Similar to that, how can I get rid of the Gu poison you planted for the villagers", even if Shen Lang was a little unbearable, he still didn't have a good face, and he wouldn't have the slightest sympathy for such a person.

"My Gu worms have all been planted with soul marks by me, kill me, kill me and you will be free", the man shouted bitterly.

"Why are you here?" Shen Lang asked, this was the doubt in Shen Lang's heart, after all, it seemed a little abnormal for this person to suddenly appear here.

"I have an enemy named Xiao Chen, I heard that he has an heir in a nearby city, and we are here to take revenge on him, ahhhh Kill me, kill me~"

"How many people came?"

"In addition to me, there are seven others".

"How's the cultivation?"

"Among the eight people, my cultivation is the weakest, and the strongest has the strength of the late stage of foundation building, uh-ah-ah~"

"Where are they now?"

"I don't know, maybe they've arrived, maybe they'll arrive in a day or two and kill me~kill me~ahhhh

"Humph! I hope that as you say, otherwise I can detain your soul and make your life worse than death."

As he spoke, he swung his sword and slashed his life, but as he said, his body immediately began to stop festering after his death.

As soon as he shook his hand, the core of the earth fire began to burn.

Obviously, this person and the other seven people acted separately, he didn't know the itinerary of the rest of the people, now this place is only a few hundred miles away from Jiayuan City, and the next target they are looking for is likely to be Jiayuan City, since the other party's cultivation is the strongest only in the later stage of foundation building, Shen Lang plans to divide the troops into two ways, let Xiaoyue return to Jiayuan City to garrison first, but if there is a change, it is enough to kill immediately, as for him, he will continue to escort Ru Jiaojiao back to the Valley of Hundred Flowers.

When Shen Lang returned to Baiyang Pass, it was already the fourth watch and the fifth watch, and to Shen Lang's surprise, Ru Jiaojiao had been waiting for him to come back at the door.

"Shen Lang, are you back?"

When Ru Jiaojiao saw Shen Lang, she was as happy as her little daughter-in-law when she saw her husband, and she got up busily and wanted to walk towards Shen Lang, but she didn't take two steps before she said, "Eh!" He sat down on the ground with a thud.

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing this, Shen Lang hurriedly stepped forward to help him up and asked.

"It's okay, it seems that the wound has worsened" said Ru Jiaojiao and wanted to get up, but she couldn't stand up at all.

Seeing this, Shen Lang hurriedly said: "Don't move."

Regardless of whether Ru Jiaojiao refused or not, she picked it up, which suddenly caused Ru Jiaojiao's heart to tremble and let out a scream: "Ah! ”

"What? Are you afraid that I will eat you? ”

"No... No, you let me down~" At this moment, Ru Jiaojiao was extremely shy.

"Alright! So I let you down? Shen Lang said, and when Shen Lang was about to put it down, she hugged Shen Lang's neck and refused to let go.

"Why don't you send me back to my room and bandage me again!"

When she said this, Ru Jiaojiao was almost ashamed, her face was red, her head was lowered, and she didn't dare to look at Shen Lang.
