Chapter 4 Mixed Toxins
Without foraging outside anymore, Luo Hou returned directly to Shi Qing's home.
In order to prevent anyone from tracking it, it did not dare to sleep and rest, and kept a nervous eye on the movement outside.
It wasn't until the sky turned white and the night was safe and sound that he was completely relieved.
In the early morning, the sun is faint and the cold wind blows.
"This ...... It's horrible. ”
"Who did it?"
In front of the houses hung with white silk, there were many villagers from Ishida Village, and all of them had extremely ugly faces, and solemn emotions filled the air.
Anger mixed with fear.
Just last night, the widow who lived here died, and her death was extremely miserable.
Widow Tian's home is in the middle of the village, and there are no other residents around, so no one knows what happened in the house last night.
Until this morning, a young man came here to borrow poisonous insects, and outside the door, he saw a large blood stain that had long since dried up.
After opening the door in horror, he saw the woman's mutilated body in the house, a picture of hell painted in red and white paint.
In the face of such a tragic scene, the young man was so frightened that he was almost insane.
He fled the place in three steps, incoherently incoherently informing the rest of the village, which immediately caused a huge panic and commotion.
An experienced Gu master was sure that the woman was killed by someone with a Gu, but there were only 100 households and nearly 500 people in the village, who did it?
The widow was young and beautiful, her husband had died of illness not long ago, and there were many young men in the village who coveted her.
At this time, nearly half of the adult men of Ishida Village gathered here, and the people were panicked, and the whispers of suspicion and suspicion continued.
They are all waiting for the arrival of the principal.
"Everyone, the Lord is coming!"
The crowd parted into a passage, and an old man with gray hair and over half a hundred years old walked over.
He is Tian Ming, the head of Ishida Village, Tian You's father, and a powerful Gu master who can drive the Gu King.
He was quite shocked when he got the news.
A village that has lived in seclusion and has not had a murder for thirty or forty years, I never expected this kind of thing to happen now.
Seeing the rioting crowd, a trace of worry appeared in Tian Ming's heart.
Although the village is small, the clan is divided into two Shitian families, and the two families often have conflicts, and it is the people of the Tian family who died today, and it is difficult to guarantee that no one will point the finger at the Shi family.
It would be bad if the relationship between the two families deteriorated further because of this incident.
With thoughts in his heart, his face was serious, and he asked in a deep voice, "Where is the corpse?" ”
The person was killed by the Gu, and as the first Gu master in the village, he had to conduct an autopsy himself.
Seeing that the crowd was in turmoil, Tian Ming frowned, and used a trace of spirit Gu power.
Like a black hole, the light around him was distorted and dimmed, and the powerful spiritual pressure instantly pressed on everyone's hearts like a dark cloud, and the scene suddenly fell silent.
This is the Spirit Gu, which is detached from ordinary things, and has magic power that ordinary poisonous Gu does not have, and the entire village drives the Spirit Gu, and there are only eight people who are called Gu masters.
Tian Ming is the most powerful of them.
"Still in the house...... None of us moved. ”
Tian Ming nodded and strode into the house.
The large blood stains on the floor had long since dried up, and the faint blue morning light shone through the window, illuminating the pile of red and white corpses in the center of the bloodstains.
Scattered limbs, horrible scars.
It was not a human trace, but the remains of a wild beast.
Even with Tian Ming's well-informed, he couldn't help but gasp, he hadn't seen such a tragic situation in twenty years.
The woman's clothes were torn and still on the side, and the naked skin of the corpse was covered with traces of being tied up and abused, which was obviously rape and then murder!
The blood stains on the ground were not completely disorganized, but were used as paint, drawing many distorted lines and symbols on the ground.
Ishida was very familiar with these symbols, which were the secret technique of the Gu clan to refine the Spirit Gu with the blood of the living soul!
The Spirit Gu that is sacrificed by the blood of the living soul will be even more powerful, and the human being is the primate of all things, and the effect will be even better if the sacrifice is a human.
In the period when the Gu clan was at its strongest hundreds of years ago, powerful Gu masters often provoked wars in various places and slaughtered the city inhumanely in order to enhance the power of the Spirit Gu!
There are too many things that are angry and resentful of the heavens, and it is also one of the important reasons why the Gu clan was destroyed.
Tian Ming is deeply warn of this, so in Ishida Village, the blood sacrifice of living people is definitely a taboo among taboos!
"There are still people who dare to feed Gu with living people in my Ishida Village!"
Holding back the anger and horror in his heart, he carefully examined the corpse on the ground, and finally picked up a golden snake scale from the dried blood.
"Golden Snake Gu ......"
Tian Ming's pupils shrank, and a strong uneasiness appeared in his heart, but at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"This murderer is not from my Ishida Village."
He said slowly: "From now on, everyone in the village is not allowed to go out at will, and if there is any trace of a suspected outsider, report it immediately." ”
"Understood, Lord."
After giving the order, Tian Ming walked out of the door and happened to meet Shi Hu who had just arrived.
"Head of the family, I heard that little sister Tian Ling was killed, what the hell is going on?"
Shi Hu had a look of disbelief on his face.
Tian Ming nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Someone used Gu to eat people alive!" Enhance the power of Gu through living sacrifices. ”
Shi Hu hated and said: "There are still Gu clan people doing such angry things, who did this, do you have a clue?" ”
Tian Ming glanced at him and said, "The murderer used the Golden Snake Gu, this kind of Gu can't be refined here, not from the village."
"I just issued an order to let everyone not go out, beware of outsiders, Shi Hu, as the head of the family surnamed Shi, I hope to cooperate and tell the good clansmen."
Shi Hu chuckled lightly and said respectfully: "Brother Tian Ming is polite, you are the master of everyone, of course I obey your orders." ”
Tian Ming sighed, touched his beard and said helplessly: "The ancestors led everyone to live in seclusion here, but they didn't want to get involved in the disputes outside, it seems that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop." ”
"Brother Tian Ming is too worried, as long as there is a Gu King handed down from the ancestors, where is the ordinary enemy your opponent."
"If there is a Gu King who can keep everything worry-free, how could the ancestors be defeated and trapped in the Southern Wilderness?"
Tian Ming shook his head, not wanting to continue talking on this issue, but clasped his hands together and said, "May the ancestors bless us with peace and worry." ”
When Shi Hu saw him like this, there was a trace of imperceptible disdain in his eyes.
……
When Luo Hou learned from Shi Qing that a woman died last night, he didn't feel too much surprise in his heart.
At that time, he sensed that something was wrong, but he was a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it was difficult to protect himself, let alone take care of irrelevant people.
After surviving the Gu poison, he had a strong sense of crisis in his heart.
I'm afraid that the Gu clan will use hundreds of poisons, and this time they survived, but next time they may not be so lucky.
But if you can eat all the poisonous Gu and continue to produce poison resistance, won't you be afraid that these Gu people will be poisoned again?
Considering that he has a strong ability to heal himself, Luo Hou feels that as long as he is careful to control the dose and the poisoned part, he can cut off his limbs in time if he can't bear it in time, and there shouldn't be much danger.
So that night, after preying on the poultry of two households, it quietly came to the door of one villager.
Here, he didn't perceive the demonic aura similar to that of the Gu King, he should only be keeping ordinary poisonous Gu in captivity.
Silently stretching his muscles, his unusually malleable body gradually flattened, Luo Hou turned into a piece of "tissue paper" and quietly drilled through the crack in the door.
Once inside, the scarlet one-eyed peered around in the dim moonlight.
There was a young man and a woman lying on the bed, and a Shiba dog was lying under the bed, both of them and one dog were sleeping peacefully, making an even breathing sound.
In the corner of the room stood a half-human-high stone jar, similar in style to the one Luo Hou himself was staying in, it should be the place where this Gu was raised.
If the man and woman are awakened at this time, they will be able to see this horrific scene.
The alien creature propped itself up with its tentacles, its flattened body spreading out to the sides like wings, like a giant cobra, choosing people to devour.
The tentacles opened the lid of the stone jar, revealing a nest of colorful toads hidden inside, and before they could wake up, they were instantly killed by the pouring venom.
Luo Hou's original venom is similar to strong stomach acid, although the power is limited in terms of toxicity, but the direct lethality effect is remarkable.
Enduring the psychological discomfort and absorbing this pot of colorful "toad soup" into his body, Luo Hou immediately felt that his muscles began to swell.
He thoughtfully restored the lid of the stone jar, quietly opened the window and slipped out, and before leaving, he took away a string of bacon hanging on the beams of the house.
Soon, Luo Hou felt that one of his tentacles could barely move.
Is the venom effect of those toads powerful paralysis?
To ensure safety, he concentrated all the venom he absorbed in a tentacle to prevent it from spreading further throughout his body.
The Gu poison destruction eroded the nerve cells, but the powerful regenerative ability made the physical perception continue to revive, and Luo Hou experienced cramp-like pain.
It wasn't until the middle of the night that he finally felt like he could move.
He gained a new kind of poison resistance.
I'm so hungry.
The process of producing antibodies consumes a lot of energy, and the intense hunger pangs almost drive him crazy.
Slipping into a sheepfold, Luo Hou entangled a ram, strangled his spine and began to secrete venom.
Paralysis, hemolysis.
It didn't take much effort for the ram to stop struggling under the influence of the toxin and lose its breath.
After eating it up, Luo Hou not only alleviated his hunger, but also grew his strength to three hundred catties.
Then he began to think.
How do you feel like your venom is getting stronger?
After a little pondering, he understood that the antibody itself was also a weakened toxin, and he produced antibodies to two kinds of Gu poison in his body.
Mixed with the Gu venom of the black snake and the poisonous toad, the venom is naturally more complex and powerful.
In this way, as long as he kept devouring the poison Gu, he would be able to continuously enhance the power of his venom.
It was a bonus.
Luo Hou became even more determined in his idea of devouring other poisonous Gus.
