Chapter 6 Grass Quartet Six
Last time, it was said that Xue Mengran received an invitation from Wu Dongling, the leader of the Miaojiang Rotten Immortal Sect, and wanted to visit Phoenix Mountain, but was stopped by his father, Xue Zhanlong, the owner of Wanshou Mountain Villa, and it happened that Xiao Yao and Lian Yingxue came to the Ninety Thousand Mountain at this time.
Xue Mengran then begged Xiao Yao to help her understand her father Xue Zhanlong.
In the communication with Xue Zhanlong, Xiao Yao learned about the current situation of the Rotten Immortal Sect, and at the same time, under the pressure of Xue Mengran to death, Xue Zhanlong finally agreed to his daughter's trip to Southern Xinjiang, but put forward a condition, that is, he needed to be accompanied by Xiao Yao before Xue Mengran was allowed to go.
Xiao Yao had already sensed from Xue Zhanlong's words that Southern Xinjiang did not seem to be as calm as it seemed on the surface, and was about to go to Phoenix Mountain, when he heard Xue Zhanlong's request, he naturally agreed.
Just as Xiao Yao and Xue Mengran were on their way to southern Xinjiang, Xue Mengran told some of the historical situations of the Miao people in southern Xinjiang one after another.
The Ninety Thousand Mountains where Wanshou Mountain Villa is located and the Phoenix Mountain where the Miaojiang Rotten Immortal Sect is located are adjacent to each other, and between the two majestic mountain ranges, only a rushing red water river is connected.
After crossing the Hongshui River, he could be regarded as truly stepping on the land of Miao Jiang, but the first thing that caught everyone's eyes was not the peace that Xue Mengran said, nor the large-scale fight of the Xuanluo Divine Sect in Xiao Yao's imagination.
In front of them was a group of people who were fighting in a mess, and it could be seen from the blue and black costumes on these people that the people on both sides were Miao people, and there were no southwestern barbarians or Han people participating in them.
These Miao people, who are also of the same clan, are now fighting together as if they have a great hatred for each other, all kinds of weapons, Gu worms, and even hidden weapons for feeding poison are flying all over the sky, and the names of the clansmen have become worthless grass mustard that can be trampled on at will.
The bones of the defeated are incomplete, and the victors are scarred.
Xue Mengran grew up in the Ninety Thousand Mountains since she was a child, and she didn't know how many fierce beasts she had faced in the past ten years, but at this moment, she realized that even the most vicious iron-galled silver bear in the Ninety Thousand Mountains was not as hideous as these people in front of her.
These Miao people have no rules to fight, as if they are painless and tired, and the result is often only to kill or be killed.
From Xiao Yao's pity, Yingxue and others rowing approaching, to the boat docking on the bank of the Hongshui River, with just a stick of incense, the bones of more than a dozen Miao people on the defeated side have become fragmented.
The Miao people, who won the final victory, released the Gu worms they raised to their heart's content, and these ugly Gu worms crawled all over the severed limbs and broken corpses scattered on the ground, constantly gnawing at the flesh and blood left on the corpses.
Some vicious Gu insects would even bite and devour each other in order to compete for flesh and blood, and the sharp mouthparts had scoured the minced flesh on the surface of the bones, and those Gu worms seemed to be still unsatisfied, and even began to gnaw on the bones of the deceased, making bursts of scalp-numbing chewing sounds.
Where has Xue Mengran ever seen such a scene, at first when the boat was in the middle of the Red River, she didn't really see the scene of the Miao people fighting here, but then the boat came to the shore and she got closer, and was suddenly frightened by the terrifying scene of this Shura hell and screamed.
On the other side, the group of Miao people who won the victory, after a fierce battle, there were only four or five people left, and most of them still had serious injuries left on their bodies, these people were busy collecting weapons and poisonous Gu from their companions and enemies, while raising Gu worms with the blood and flesh of the dead.
I didn't pay much attention to the arrival of Xiao Yao, Xue Mengran and the others.
At this time, Xue Mengran's screams made them want to pay attention to it.
There was not much difference in the clothes of the remaining five Miao people, except that one of them had a gray bird feather on the side of the scarf on his head, which looked a little different.
This man with bird feathers in his head, originally only Xiao Yao and Xue Mengran were Han people passing by, they were not lightly injured in a vicious battle at the moment, and they didn't have the heart to pay attention to it, after hearing Xue Mengran's scream, they just subconsciously glanced at Xue Mengran's side, and they were ready to retract their eyes and lead their subordinates away.
But one of the other four Miao people was smart-eyed, and he saw the two armbands on Xue Mengran's bare arms at a glance.
This pair of armbands was originally a gift given to Xue Mengran by Wu Dongling when Xue Mengran and Wu Dongling were separated at that time, Miao Dongling took off the gift to Xue Mengran from himself, Miao Jiang has a clear and strict hierarchy, and Miao people of different identities have strict rules when wearing jewelry, and Xue Mengran's pair of armbands can be recognized as long as it is a Miao person.
When the clever Miao man saw the armband on Xue Mengran's arm, he immediately turned around and muttered a few words of Miao to the man with bird feathers.
After listening to a few words, the man raised his head and looked at Xue Mengran again, but this time there was a little more unkindness in his gaze.
Xue Mengran saw that the other party seemed to be paying attention to his armband, and remembered Wu Dongling's entrustment before the separation that day, so that when she arrived in Miao Jiang in the future, she would show the armband she gave her to the Miao people she met, and those Miao people would naturally take Xue Mengran to see Wu Dongling.
Thinking of this, Xue Mengran simply raised his arm with an armband high at the Miao people, so that the other party could see clearly and lead her to see Wu Dongling.
Who knew that the few Miao people on the opposite side saw Xue Mengran's action, like a group of enraged hornets, and the man led by Ula Ula shouted a few words, and pointed far away in the direction of Xue Mengran in his hand.
The remaining four Miao people shouted in unison, and at the same time took out flutes from their waists, which were long and short, some carved from thin bamboo, and some glowed with metal.
These Miao flutes were in their hands, and all kinds of strange flutes sounded for a while, and the Gu insects that were originally gnawing on the bones on the ground seemed to be enchanted, and put down the broken flesh and bones in their mouths one by one.
Like a black wave, it surged in the direction of Xiao Yao and the other three.
Xue Mengran has always boasted of being bold, but as soon as she crossed the Hongshui River, she saw a fight that exterminated humanity, and then she saw an overwhelming array of Gu worms rushing towards her, and her original courage didn't know where she had gone, and her legs trembled uncontrollably, not to mention that the strength of her body seemed to have been taken away.
Even when Xiao Yao saw this overwhelming Gu worm stretching over like a black carpet, he couldn't help but feel a little numb in his scalp, this was not the first time he had seen Gu worms, Wu Dongling in the Poisonous Dragon Cave had caught a lot of rare Gu worms with black bear bile in front of him that day, compared to those precious Gu worms, these iron-backed centipedes and black filariales in front of him were much more ordinary, but
It's just that there are too many Gu worms in front of them, and these Gu worms who were originally very scattered in their lives were gathered together by the Miao people, and the power and sense of oppression that erupted were even stronger than those of many peerless masters.
If Xiao Yao was the only one at this time, then this group of Gu worms would not be afraid, with his light skills, these Gu worms and Miao people would break their legs, and they would not want to catch half of his clothes.
But now it's not Xiao Yao alone, in addition to him, there is also Xue Mengran, the second lady of Wanshou Villa, who is not afraid of the sky and the earth on weekdays, but now she is almost scared to shrink into a ball, and even her martial arts are inferior to Xue Mengran's pity Yingxue.
Therefore, Xiao Yao can only retreat at this time, as long as he takes Xue Mengran and Lian Yingxue back to the boat and sails the boat to the shore, then there is a red water river to block it, and they can't help it if there are more than one or two times as many of these Gu worms.
After making up his mind, Xiao Yao stepped forward to set up the weak Xue Mengran in a flash, and then quickly retreated to the side of Lian Yingxue.
Compared with Xue Mengran, the second lady of Wanshou Villa, who is strong and hard-working, Lian Yingxue was much more indifferent in the face of a large group of Gu insects, just when Xiao Yao put Xue Mengran on the boat and was about to pull Lian Yingxue on the boat to take refuge.
Lian Yingxue unexpectedly took a step forward, Xiao Yao was taken aback when he saw this, and he didn't care about it anymore, so he flew in front of Lian Yingxue.
And Lian Yingxue not only did not retreat, but took another step forward, Xiao Yao said anxiously: "Yingxue, I will stop these Gu worms, you and Miss Xue will get on the boat first." ”
Pian Yingxue said: "Brother Xiao, you don't have to worry, I have a way to deal with these insects." ”
The earliest origin of the Gu art of the Miao Jiang Rotten Immortal Sect came from the first patriarch Heding Zhen, and the poison technique of the Heding Zhen was passed down from the Shennong clan to the plague god Emperor Shi Tian, although with the inheritance of the Gu art in Miao Jiang from generation to generation, there have been many changes, but in the final analysis, the changes are still evolved from the medical skills of the Shennong clan.
And when it comes to Shennong's medical skills, I am afraid that there is no one in this world who can compare to Pian Yingxue.
I saw that she unhurriedly took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, gently shook some powder on her body, and sprinkled some on Xiao Yao's body, and then bravely walked in the direction where the Gu worm tide came.
Xiao Yao was afraid that she would lose, so he stayed by her side every step of the way.
An unexpected scene happened like this, the black Gu worms that came like a wave stopped about three feet away before they could get close to Xiao Yao and Lian Yingxue.
Some of the Gu insects that rushed to the front were pushed into the three feet around Lian Yingxue by the Gu insects that surged up later, and suddenly let out a terrible insect roar, as if they had rushed into the hot magma, and retreated like crazy.
More and more Gu insects were squeezed within three feet of Xiao Yao and Lian Yingxue, and the terrible and disgusting noisy insects chirped one after another.
The Gu worms rushing in front wanted to retreat, but the Gu worms in the back were forced by the Miao people's various flutes to move forward and gradually became a mess.
An iron-backed centipede stabbed two barbed sharp front legs into the body of a six-eyed poisonous spider that was blocking its retreat in order to get out of the three-foot range of the snow in the back of the pity.
The six-eyed poisonous spider is not a good species, although it is much inferior to the iron-backed centipede in size, but it is more poisonous than the other party, and it bites the iron-backed centipede's head when it opens its mouth
