Immortal Sand Sea Chapter 22: Golden-Faced Gu Corpse

I've heard Lao Li Tou say that Gu corpses are actually not corpse fraud in the real sense, but the use of evil magic to plant Gu worms in the bodies of living people.

Gu worms slowly eat away at the internal organs and brain marrow in the human body, making it gradually become an unconscious living dead, and then wrap it around the body with bandages soaked in various poisons, but anyone who touches it will be poisoned.

However, this kind of evil art is prevalent in the Nanyang area, but it is rarely seen in China, if the golden-faced corpse in this tomb is really a Gu corpse as Qian Jin said, then it will be a big trouble, this thing has no effect on traditional exorcism techniques, and it can only be cracked by finding the location of the Gu worm.

"What are you still doing in a daze, I can't hold on!" The little steel cannon looked at me and exclaimed.

"I'll fight with you!" Although I knew that the situation was not good, but seeing that the little steel cannon was in extreme danger, I could not think too much, so I gritted my back molars and yelled to run towards him.

Seeing that I had taken a step, Qian Jin stopped me: "Don't mess around, if it's really a Gu corpse, there will be Gu poison, and it will be troublesome if you scratch your body!" ”

I also know how powerful the Gu corpse is, and when I heard Qian Jin's reminder, the courage I mustered was like a deflated ball.

Fortunately, the little steel cannon relied on his skills to eat, and he rushed through the armpit of the Gu corpse and jumped directly onto the wooden box, and then jumped sideways and landed beside the two of us.

"You're so funny, you let me in and I don't care if I live or die!" The little steel cannon bounced up with both hands, panting and scolding at Qian Jin.

Before we could say more, the Gu corpse slowly moved in our direction, and the belly wrapped in ribbons suddenly bulged bigger and bigger as if it were cheering.

The little steel cannon didn't care about the three-seven-twenty-one gun and aimed it at his stomach is a burst, "bang bang bang" several times in a row, I only felt my ears buzzing, and my head was a little confused.

The bullet smashed the golden-faced corpse's stomach, and he let out an even more piercing scream, and as the ribbon was broken, a stream of black water immediately gushed out of his stomach, and countless black worms wriggled forward in this black liquid.

I couldn't help but feel numb when I saw it, I remember that the glasses used to tell the story of man-eating ants, some people were eaten by man-eating ants, some people were eaten brains, and some people were scared to death, it seems that these black insects also want to eat us.

"You are Lao Litou's apprentice, there must be a way to cure him." I looked at the black insect head and didn't dare to ask Qian Jin back.

"An apprentice is an apprentice, but I haven't learned his Taoism, and all my thoughts are spent on reselling Ming weapons." He was wronged.

I was so angry that I wanted to scold my mother, don't do porcelain work without diamonds, he didn't say that before going to the tomb, this is not to put me and the little steel cannon together.

Black worms rushed towards us like black streams, and we retreated to the stone wall for a moment.

"The old man didn't teach you three tricks and two styles? You hurry up and think of a way to top. Qian Jin looked at me and asked.

I said that I had only been with him for a few days, and that I had not been able to meet each other during this time, and that I had learned a certain move, but that the decent charms he had brought were of no use other than wiping his ass.

"I'll hold him later, you two take the opportunity to escape," the little cannon shouted at us, beads of sweat on his face.

To say that the soldier is still reliable at this critical time, and at this time he still thinks about others, completely ignoring his own safety, and I am also enthusiastic when I see him so sacrificing.

The Gu corpse's stomach trembled with some black liquid mixed with insects, which flowed neatly towards us like a command.

The small steel cannon was aimed at the black liquor again, and it did not stop until the muzzle of the gun emitted white smoke and all the ammunition was gone, but except for the many more bullet holes on the ground, the insects were scattered and melted back together like water, which did not have the slightest effect on them.

Seeing that the small steel cannon had empty bullets, my heart sank, and now it was a complete explanation, even such a dense firepower could not kill them, and now it is even more useless to use my bare hands.

Just when the insects were about to rush to our feet, Qian Jin suddenly thought of something and took out a copper bell from his pocket, and then blew it hard with his mouth, and the copper bell made a crisp sound of "dang".

Then I could hear the sound of hurried footsteps, from far to near, until I stopped at the end of the tomb entrance and saw a familiar figure.

I rubbed my eyes vigorously and made sure that this was not a hallucination before I dared to believe that this acquaintance was really Lao Litou.

"Old man, hurry up and save me."

Before I could speak, Qian Jin shouted.

Lao Li Tou unloaded the cloth bag that was slung across his body, turned out a gourd in it, he first took out a pill-like thing and stuffed it into the mouth of the gourd, and then took out a piece of red paper and led it by the oil pot on the wall, and unhurriedly stuffed the burning red paper into the mouth of the gourd, and a smell of rotting corpses came out of the mouth of the gourd, and the strange thing was that those black insects were immediately attracted by this smell and crawled in his direction.

Lao Li Tou threw the gourd on the ground, and those insects rushed to drill into the gourd, and the black insects on their bodies kept making a crackling sound, burning the gourd red.

I was taken by this incredible operation of his, and the mystery of it was indescribable, and I was stunned for a moment.

Before we could react, we heard him shout at us, "What are you doing, come here!" “

At this time, we came back to our senses, and the three of us immediately found a space to run towards Lao Litou.

This Gu corpse may have started to go crazy when he saw that the law had been broken, and he was about to pounce on me.

Lao Li Tou threw out a rope and put it on the Gu corpse's body, and then pulled it back to restrain it, so that it didn't touch my body.

You must know that this Gu corpse is covered with poison, if the skin is stained, it will not die or be crippled.

I was secretly admiring Lao Li Tou in my heart for being so old and being able to subdue the Gu corpse alone, but I didn't expect the Gu corpse to suddenly bounce straight to the ground, break free from the shackles of the rope, and pounce on me head-on.

I was frightened and hurriedly retreated, but as soon as my feet took two steps back, I stumbled on the stone steps and fell backwards, and the Gu corpse itself was close to me, grabbing my ankle at once.

The moment the withered hand touched the foot, it pierced like an ice pick, causing cold sweat all over my forehead, and the pain almost made me burst into tears.

At this time, Lao Li Tou had already rushed up and dragged me up from the ground, and then pushed forward, and I hit the stone wall again, only to feel numb in my back.

Seeing this, Qian Jin and Xiao Gang Cannon each picked up one end of the rope and shook it in the air and put it on the Gu corpse again, and then the two crossed a few laps and completely restrained him.

"Where did this worm Gu come from?"

Qian Jin grappled the hemp rope with both hands, and asked with his right leg resting on the stone steps.

Lao Li Tou put his hand into the pocket of his underwear and took out a cigarette stick, put the front end into the broken belly of the Gu corpse, and then took it out, except for some black mucus, there were no black worms on it.

"The worm is gone, this Gu corpse is still moving, which means that the part of the Gu is not in the internal organs." Lao Li Tou explained after observing it, and then took out the silver needle in his belt and transferred it to the Gu corpse and inserted it straight into the back of his head.

The Gu corpse's stomach was broken before, but now it was stabbed and gurgling, and Lao Li Tou took out the silver needle and the front end was stained with bright red liquid.

"It should be a head Gu!"

Lao Li Tou found out where this insect Gu was planted, and hurriedly found a transparent cylindrical cup in the cloth bag, then lit a candle and stretched it into the cup, until the cup body was burned and hot, and suddenly buckled on the back of the Gu corpse's head.

A silver needle was inserted into the back of the head, and a stream of red liquid poured into the cup, and then a centipede-like insect covered with barbs was drawn out along with the liquid.

As soon as the Gu worm came out, the Gu corpse immediately stopped moving as if it had been drained, standing upright, like a statue.

However, the Gu worm was still alive and desperately trying to drill back into the Gu corpse's brain, Lao Li Tou quickly took off the cup and buckled it upside down on the ground, even if it struggled wildly, it couldn't escape.

Just as I was glad that I had finally subdued the Gu corpse, a burning sensation of extreme pain spread from my ankle, and I hurriedly lifted my trouser leg to observe it despite the severe pain, and found that the part touched by the Gu corpse had grown black ecchymosis.

"It's not good, Jianhua is injured!" At this time, the little steel cannon was keenly aware of my wound and said hurriedly.

"It's fun to take off this time, you must not touch that place, be careful of poisoning you." After Qian Jin heard this, he rushed over and grabbed the outstretched hand of the small steel cannon and said.

Little Steel Cannon looked anxious, staring at my ankles without blinking, but he didn't dare to do it.

This Gu poison is really evil enough, I was seriously injured when I touched it, if it was really scratched, it is estimated that I would have lost my life at this time.

I tried to stand up with the pain, but as soon as my foot touched the ground, my whole leg went limp.

Old Li Tou didn't have time to deal with the Gu worms there, so he shouted at me: "Don't move, this Gu poison flows with the blood, and it moves diligently and dies quickly." “

As soon as I heard this, I sat down and didn't dare to move rashly, even if it hurt again, but my left leg was still trembling uncontrollably, and I could only force myself to sit up straight.

"This Gu worm is really difficult, it's a Gu within a Gu!"

As soon as Lao Li Tou's voice fell, the attention of the three of us was once again focused on the cup beside him.

I noticed that there was some inky liquid in the cup out of thin air, it seemed that it should have been expelled by Gu worms, and there were still some subtle insects crawling there in the inky liquid.

Lao Li Tou walked up to us with a solemn face, pointed to the Gu worm in the cup on the ground and said that this is the 'Blood Ink Gu', once it gets into the body, a large number of small worms will grow on the body, and when there are more and more small worms, they will eat up the entire flesh and blood of the person, and finally turn into a Gu corpse.

"What then? Am I going to be that too? I looked at Lao Li Tou and asked, if it really becomes that ghost, it is better to die now.

"Hmm...... That's not it, the Gu worm didn't enter the body, and at most it would die of poison, and it would never become a Gu corpse. Lao Li paused, and then continued: "Fortunately, you are my apprentice and can be saved." ”

His gasping speech sent me on a rollercoaster ride.

After finishing speaking, I saw him use a silver needle to pierce a hole in my black ecchymosis, and some inky pus came out of it, and then squeezed out the Gu poison inside, and when he saw that blood had come out, he covered my wound with a red ash after burning the rune paper.

At this time, I suddenly felt comfortable all over my body, not only did I not feel the slightest pain, but even the black ecchymosis from before gradually faded.

"Phew, this old Gu of the dog almost killed me!" Qian Jin walked to the cup holding the Gu worm and scolded him, and couldn't help but open the cup and stepped on the Gu worm.

"Don't ......"

As soon as Lao Li Tou spoke, the Gu worm was trampled on with a snap, and the dark green liquid splashed out.

"What did you say?"

Qian Jin looked back at us and asked.

I saw Lao Li Tou sigh, and then before everyone could react, a coffin in front of the tomb that was originally silent began to shake violently.
