Chapter 160: Desperate Gu Master
I saw the old woman take out a leather tube about three inches long from the hook of the clothes belt around her waist, and poured out a fat green caterpillar from it.
This green caterpillar is purple all over, squirming with sharp mouthparts, and black stripes on its body are horizontal and vertical, running through the whole body.
"Master, what is this?"
"This is a Gu worm."
Gu Shun had known about Gu worms a long time ago.
I also heard a lot of stories about it when I heard the storyteller talk about the secrets of southern Xinjiang in Yuelai Teahouse before.
Gu worm is a kind of artificially cultivated poisonous insect, put a dozen or more than a hundred kinds of insects or highly poisonous things together, let them kill each other, and the last one left is Gu worm.
It is rumored that the Gu makers in southern Xinjiang generally gather Gu worms on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Han calendar and begin to refine Gu.
However, due to the taboo of Gu things in all dynasties, there are a lot of stories about the use of Gu insects to harm people, which casts a mysterious shadow on Gu insects.
In the previous dynasty, there was a witch curse that shocked the ancient and modern times, when the crown prince and the queen were also implicated in the end, innocent and tragic, and the capital was framed by witches and died as many as 100,000 people.
Therefore, people are eager to avoid things related to Gu, and no one dares to get this thing. Later, Gu even became synonymous with the Demon Sect, tied to the notorious Demon Sect.
But just as a big poison becomes a medicine, a big medicine is like a poison, and it is also recorded in the medical book that there are witch doctors in southern Xinjiang who specialize in using Gu worms to treat diseases.
Some poisonous and terminally ill diseases, the doctors of the Central Plains have long been unable to recover from heaven and are helpless, but these mysterious witch doctors can bring the patients back to life with a dose of decoction made of Gu worms.
Of course, Gu Shun didn't believe this, but this just proved that Gu worms were widely used in the land of southern Xinjiang, and they were not just harmful things.
And this transfiguration technique of the Ancient God Sect was originally obtained from southern Xinjiang.
"In the past, if you want to change your face, let Gu worms drill through your nose and gnaw at your facial muscles and bones from the inside.
Because the poison in the Gu worm's body has a strong paralyzing effect, even if the Gu worm eats the flesh and blood, he will not feel the slightest pain. ”
Gu Shun swallowed a mouthful of saliva uneasily, pretending to be panicked and said, "Master, are you saying that this thing can get into the skin and gnaw the muscles clean, isn't this kind of disguise a bit dangerous?" ”
"Gu Gongzi don't have to be afraid, Gu worms are not as evil as the legend, and the method we use is not to let Gu worms get into their muscles."
As she spoke, the old woman pinched the purple green caterpillar in her hand violently, and with great strength, some colorful and sticky juice splattered out from the green caterpillar's mouthparts.
The old woman wiped the juice squeezed out on her face with her other hand, although these juices came from the Gu worm's body, not only did it smell strange, but there was a faint fragrance.
The juice quickly turned to the same color as the skin, and when it dried, it was more realistic than a human skin mask, both in terms of the tactile sensation and the simulation of the appearance.
As the smeared area became thick and thin, the old woman's face began to change.
"How Gu Gongzi looks, is it completely different from just now."
The old woman used the juice squeezed out and wiped it on her face a few times, as if she had changed her face.
"Master, why is this Gu worm so magical, the apprentice also wants to learn Gu refining, and I ask Master to teach me."
The old woman explained: "Gu Gongzi, the steps of Gu making are complicated, too mysterious, and there is a lack of necessary tools in the house, when the shopkeeper Gu comes back in the future, I promise you to go out to practice martial arts, and we will teach you to learn Gu making." ”
"There are many people in the Gu Mansion, and there are many well-informed people in the dart game, so we can't teach the Young Sect Master to refine Gu inside, otherwise once a large number of poisonous insects appear, it will be easy for people to suspect our identity.
Besides, the young sect leader is still young, white and lovely, we can't let him come into contact with these poisons, in case the slightest mistake bites the young sect master, we can't afford to bear this responsibility."
Hearing the old woman's words, Gu Shun pretended to be very disappointed and begged: "Master, can you teach me, you can roughly explain the process, I just listen, it will be fine." ”
The old woman was originally a hard-hearted and ruthless person who would not give up until she reached her goal, but in the face of Gu Shun's begging, her heart somehow softened, and the young sect leader was coquettish to her, didn't it break her.
She also understood her sect leader's helplessness now, Gu Shun had an indescribable affinity in him, which made it impossible to resist his request.
In fact, this is Gu Shun's secret hypnotic method obtained from his father's secret room, and there are a lot of hints and inducements in his words.
Although this hint is relatively slight for a warrior, if it is for relatives or people who revere it, the effect will be greatly enhanced.
"In that case, I'll briefly talk about the steps of making Gu worms, but Gu Gongzi must remember that you must not try it yourself, and don't tell others about this Gu making method, understand."
"I understand."
"The young sect master's talent is so high, if he teaches him the complete Gu making method, if he really makes a Gu, it will be troublesome.
Before he has enough ability to control the Gu worm and form resistance to the Gu worm's toxin, let's teach him some simple steps first."
Thinking of this, the old woman explained to Gu Shun quite seriously the cultivation method of Gu worms.
"Gu Gongzi, making Gu worms, pay attention to the right time, place and people, the time is the noon of the day, when the sun is the most vicious, at this time the yang energy is the heaviest, making Gu at this time can stimulate the activity of Gu worms to the greatest extent, and the effect of raising Gu worms is also the best."
"The noon refining Gu is the smallest and easiest to control the Gu insect toxins refined. Every half an hour after noon, the toxin of the Gu worm will be one point stronger, if it is a Gu refining at midnight of the New Moon, its yin qi will be extremely strong, the toxin is the strongest, and the Gu worm is also the most ferocious and difficult to control.
If you encounter the Blood Moon and the Evil Moon again, you may cultivate something unacceptable."
"Prepare a large vat that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and if you don't have a vat, you can use that kind of long-necked flask or elephant trunk bottle.
After preparing the container, go to the wild to grab reptiles, poisons, such as snakes, centipedes, scorpions, praying mantises, eels, toads, wasps, etc., each poison is only allowed one, large or small, put it into the tank at noon. ”
"It is best to use a clay pot or a clay pot. For utensils such as porcelain bottles, because the walls of the bottles are too slippery and the space is narrow, there are not many Gu worms that can be put into it, and the small area will speed up their killing, resulting in a great decrease in the quality of the Gu worms."
"Generally, the number of Gu worm culture days is calculated according to twice the number of Gu worms put in, fifteen poisons are put in, and it is generally necessary to wait for more than thirty days before the Gu ...... can be formed."
With the old woman's explanation, coupled with the taboos and deliberately hidden skills she thought in her heart, Gu Shun quickly became familiar with cultivating Gu worms.
Refining Gu worms is not an exercise, Gu Shun originally thought that there would be no reaction to hanging up and cultivating, but what he didn't expect was that just after listening to the operation steps roughly, a line of text suddenly popped up in front of his eyes.
Congratulations on unlocking the title: [Breaking Gu Master]
[Desperate Gu Master: You will obtain the inheritance of refining the Dragon Gu and Qilin Gu that have been lost, and at the same time, the attributes of the Gu worms you refine will be greatly improved, and you will gain Gu poison immunity and damage bonuses]
Since Gu Shun came to this world, the Sim system he carried with him has not moved for a long time, and this time the text suddenly appeared, and it was still a reward title, which surprised Gu Shun very much.
However, if you think back to the first two simulation experiences, you must have achieved certain mission objectives in this simulation world before you will be rewarded with achievements or titles.
This title is more frustrating to Gu Shun, but it is better than nothing.
The old woman explained the method of cultivating Gu worms in a simple way, and looked at Gu Shun's puzzled expression, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
She had already omitted all the most critical steps, even if Gu Shun followed her steps to cultivate Gu worms step by step, it would be a ghost if she could cultivate them.
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Gu Shun is foolish, if he is lucky enough to really make a Gu worm, its danger and damage will be greatly reduced.
She didn't believe that just like this, Gu Shun could still refine Gu worms.
