Bamboo Shadow Village.

The eighth village of the nine villages and eleven villages of the Wushen Sect in southern Xinjiang is guarded by the elder of the ten witches, Wu Zhen.

Whenever the moon hangs in the sky, the swaying bamboo shadows are reflected on the village from the distant hills, hence the name of the village.

"The Holy Maiden is back!"

"Sister Yuexi is back."

"It's Yuexi, is Xiaoyuexi back?"

The young man of the Wu tribe who was guarding the gate of the village saw Luo Mingzhang and his party and shouted loudly.

The villagers who heard the shouts also ran over.

There are old people and children who come out of the village.

The children chattered around them, while the old people looked at Wu Yuexi kindly, and when they saw that she was safe and sound, they all showed relieved expressions.

Seeing the familiar faces, Wu Yuexi showed a smile that she hadn't seen for a long time.

"I can't see it, they're all quite close to you." Luo Mingzhang said: "I thought that all the witches would respect you very much, but this respect will carry with the natural alienation of the subjects towards the superiors. ”

"It's different, this is the place where I was born and raised, and all the people here are my relatives."

Wu Yuexi said with a smile.

From her smile, Luo Mingzhang felt relaxed, and the tightness that had always been on her weakened a lot.

Beside Wu Yuexi, a little girl looked up at her, her eyes full of hope:

"Sister Yuexi, how long will you stay back this time? It's been a long time since you've told me about the interesting things happening outside, and besides, there are some Gu worms that I can't control well, can you teach me? ”

Wu Yuexi touched the girl's head:

"Xiao Nan, I'm sorry, I'm leaving soon, my sister still has very important things to do, next time, next time I promise to make up the story for you."

At this moment, an old woman of the witch clan said:

"Okay, okay, what are you doing here, let's disperse, do whatever you have to do, don't delay Xiaoyuexi's business."

The witches seemed to respect the old woman and dispersed.

Seeing this, Luo Mingzhang glanced at Ah Chao with some curiosity.

He only felt the aura of the second order or so on this old woman's body, and it was obvious that her strength as a Gu Master was very limited.

Ah Chao whispered:

"Granny Asha, she is the witch doctor of our village, and she has cured many people in the village when they are sick."

In the Southern Xinjiang Wu Clan, the status of Gu Master is undoubted, and only the Holy Son and Holy Maiden and the Ten Witch Elders, who are candidates for the Ten Witches, are above them.

It's not that some simple Gu techniques are Gu masters, in fact, the witch people of the Nine Villages and Eleven Villages of the Wushen Sect will control Gu insects and cultivate spirit grass nine times out of ten.

The real Gu Master is a soul master who walks along with living beings, except for the peculiar method of spirit control, their entry and promotion will not be easier than other monks.

Even more than a dozen Wu warriors of the same level could hardly pose an effective threat to a Gu Master.

Because of this, Gu Master also shoulders the heavy responsibility of protecting the clan.

Among the Gu arts, although there are many ways to save people, most of the Gu masters don't have time to practice medicine, so in the village, there are often a few witch doctors.

Most of them have limited achievements in Gu masters, but they can calm down to study pharmacology and combine medical skills with Gu techniques.

These witch doctors are more revered by the witch people than the average witch warrior.

"Xiao Yuexi, have you found Jiuli's whereabouts?"

When the villagers were almost scattered, Granny Asha looked at Wu Yuexi and said with a worried expression.

There are thousands of hatreds between Jiuli and the Wu Clan.

She can imagine the danger of this trip.

Wu Yuexi nodded.

The status of the witch doctor is much higher than that of ordinary people, especially old people like Granny Asha, many witch warriors and even the Ten Witch Elders have received her favor when they were young.

She was able to get some news, and Wu Yuexi was not surprised.

"Mother-in-law Asha, don't worry, they are all very powerful, with them to help me, I will definitely be fine."

Wu Yuexi said with a smile.

"Xiao Yuexi, you must be good, Yangshan is already like this, if something happens to you, how can I explain to your dead grandfather......"

When the girl heard this, her expression darkened:

"I came back this time just to see my brother, I haven't had a village for a long time. If I don't come back, I'm afraid my brother won't remember me. Mother-in-law, is my brother better? ”

The old woman shook her head:

"Hey, let's go see Yangshan!"

Bidding farewell to the old woman, Wu Yuexi led everyone to a room.

At the moment of pushing the door in, Luo Mingzhang felt a dangerous aura.

Countless black insects and ants filled the walls and floors of the room, and after feeling the breath of the living, they immediately rushed towards the door.

In the room, on the bed lay a young man of the Wu clan.

All the insects and ants came out of his body.

Seeing this, Wu Yuexi hurriedly stepped forward, only to see a faint little figure emerge from her eyebrows, this is her soul baby.

"Brother, it's me, I'm back to see you!"

As her words fell, the soul baby emitted a strange fluctuation, as if a silent sound wave swept by.

The insects and ants all over the ground quickly converged to the man on the bed, and when Wu Yuexi walked to the bed, all the Gu insects had already burrowed back into the man's body.

She sat down on the bed and shook the man's hand:

"Brother, I'm back, I'm sorry, I haven't come to see you for so long."

Luo Mingzhang asked:

"Ah Chao, he is ......"

"He is the elder brother of the Holy Maiden, Wuyang Mountain, he used to be a candidate for the Ten Witches, and then because of an accident, he became like this, since then, I have rarely seen the Holy Maiden laugh."

Ah Chao sighed and said.

He and Ah Lang's parents died early, and they were deeply cared for by Wu Yuexi's family, and they also grew up with Wu Yuexi, they did not have the talent to become Gu masters, so they did their best to become Wu clan warriors and took on the responsibility of her protection.

The promotion of the Wu warrior is to integrate the spirit into their own flesh and blood, this process is very painful, if the degree of physical training is not enough, then this pain will be more intense, and even the flesh will melt and die.

Luo Mingzhang looked at the man on the bed, his body was unconsciously emitting soul fluctuations, and judging from his breath, the other party had at least a fourth-order cultivation or above.

The Gu worms in his body are spontaneously protecting him, and they will indiscriminately attack the living people who come close.

However, it seems that these Gu worms or this man can still recognize Wu Yuexi's breath in their subconscious.

Even Gu masters rarely keep Gu worms in their bodies, and if they are not careful, the price of backlash will be very terrifying.

This kind of Gu refining method he had only seen in ancient books.

He looked at the girl in southern Xinjiang:

"Wu Yuexi, your brother's cultivation, is it ten thousand Gu feeding body?"
