In a moment, the blood began to wriggle on the ground as if it had come to life, and then began to bulge at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye, a half-human-high blood egg appeared in front of my eyes.

As soon as the blood egg came out, the air around it seemed to stagnate for a moment.

I suddenly felt very uncomfortable, especially when the bloody egg was beating like a heart after it appeared, which made me feel like my heart was beating a beat slower.

What the hell is this?

I was terrified.

It's just the blood of the Gu King, how could it become like this?

Zhang Mingyu also took a few steps back a little unnaturally, keeping himself away from the blood egg, and it took him a while to remember what the blood egg was.

He looked at the Gu King in disbelief.

"Gu King, you are going to ......"

The Gu King didn't answer, but just sped up the sound of the flute when the blood egg was beating faster and faster, and under the continuous and extremely fast sound of the flute, even the Huangquan River seemed to become calm.

"Quack!"

Suddenly, a frog croaked sound.

Zhang Mingyu and I glanced at each other in unison.

The next moment I saw that the bloody egg began to crack, and a scarlet toad actually came out of it.

The toad was half a human tall, and its whole body was full of bulges, and as soon as it came out, a red mist appeared around its body, and there was a faint pungent smell of blood.

Looking at the toad, I got goosebumps all over my body.

I've naturally seen a toad, but it's the first time I've seen it when it's so big and so weird, not only that, but I also feel a familiar aura from this toad, which is very similar to the Gu King.

When the toad appeared, it jumped towards the Huangquan River, and when it was by the river, it stood for a moment, and then jumped directly into the Huangquan River after another frog call.

The Huangquan River, which was still flowing, actually stopped as it jumped in, as if it had been cut off, and there was no sign of flowing.

Looking at this scene, my eyes widened, and I looked at the Gu King in disbelief.

At this time, the Gu King had already put away the flute, but his face had become much paler, the aura on his body was much weaker, and his already old face was much older at this moment.

He didn't say a word, just sat cross-legged on the ground.

At this time, it looks like an old man who is about to die.

I hesitated, but asked, "What are you ......?"

Although I already have a pimple with him in my heart, but seeing that he blocked the Huangquan River, I still temporarily let go of my opinion on him, at least in the matter of Huangquan Road, what he did was what I wanted to do.

Hearing my voice, the Gu King glanced at me tiredly and said, "I'll help you block the Huangquan River, and then you just need to destroy this Huangquan Road." ”

"Huangquan Road is destroyed, you can leave."

"Are you alright?" I asked.

The Gu King said lightly: "I have already reached the twilight of my life, and I thought that the reliable Immortal Gu would live a little longer, so as to continue to bless this Miao Jiang." ”

"Who knows, but it has fulfilled you."

Hearing this, I became a little embarrassed.

"This ...... It's not really what I thought. ”

"But ......"

I didn't go on.

The Gu King just smiled indifferently, "Are you saying that I am to blame?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, and quickly shook my head.

Although I do want to say so.

But this is just my inner thoughts, and naturally I can't admit it.

The Gu King didn't care and said, "Since that Immortal Gu has become one with you, please go on this road." ”

"It's a hard road."

"Later, what you have to face is much more difficult than this time."

When the Gu King said this, he gave me a meaningful look, and then said, "After leaving here, give this flute to the people in the temple for me, and they will understand what to do." ”

The Gu King threw the flute to me.

And then, somehow, I suddenly felt very heavy.

He's not wrong.

He just wanted to protect this Miao Territory all the time for the sake of immortal Gu, and compared to me, this alone was enough to make me admire.

It's just that the Soul Eater Gu Mother Worm is still in my head, and I can't take it out, let alone return it to him.

I sighed slightly in my heart, then nodded, "I will." ”

Only then did the Gu King slowly close his eyes.

He didn't die.

It just looks like I'm tired.

But I know that he gave me the flute and asked me to return it to the temple for him, but it was too late to say anything.

After glancing at him, I bowed to him, then looked around, and then walked towards the statue with the Earth Fairy Sword in my hand......

When I left Zhongdong Gu Village, it was already night again.

Without the city god, it was still raining and it was very cold.

When Zhang Mingyu and I returned to the Holy Village, we both had mixed feelings.

The Gu King stayed there, as if he wanted to guard the broken Huangquan Road, but in fact, he was also waiting for death in silence, because when I left the Zhongdong Gu Village, I saw the Tuxing Town Spirit Coffin again.

It stopped beside the Gu King.

According to the Gu King's explanation, we returned to the temple as soon as possible, and when I returned to the temple, I found that the Gu King had already taken care of the follow-up of everything.

The truth of what he said.

It's not as hard to solve as I thought.

The guards didn't stop me, and let me into the temple as if they knew I was coming.

There was only one old man in the temple, who was packing up the contents for the Gu King, and when I handed him the flute, he burst into tears.

I could clearly see that his hands were shaking when he took the flute.

And he didn't ask me anything.

But I trembled and walked out of the temple with my flute, and then I heard a mournful voice coming from outside the temple.

"Let's go!"

"Go ...... well"

One after another voices came after the sorrow, as if the entire holy village and the entire Miao Jiang knew about the return of the flute at this moment, and the sound was good, like a sad song.

"Gu King is gone......" Zhang Mingyu's expression was complicated.

I nodded.

But there are also some who do not understand.

Because even if there was no Soul Eater Gu, with his spiritual outlook, he wouldn't have died all of a sudden, unless it was because of that toad.

Zhang Mingyu seemed to see my puzzlement, and sighed: "Miao Jiang's Gu technique is unique in the entire strange human world. ”

"Every person in Miao Jiang will determine their natal Gu before learning Gu art."

"Once the natal Gu is determined, it establishes a closely related connection with that person, and this connection includes life."

"Once the natal Gu leaves the body, if it does not return, it will cause the host life of the natal Gu to be withdrawn, and in the end, the natal Gu will be free and the host will die."

"That blood toad is the Gu King's natal Gu."
