Chapter 6 Grass Quartet Eight
Last time, it was said that Xiao Yao, Lian Yingxue and the others finally crossed the Hongshui River and came to the Phoenix Mountain, relying on the guidance of an old Miao man to find the way to the Rotten Immortal Sect.
But on the way to the Rotting Immortal Sect, the corpses of the Miao warriors were found again, these corpses were very similar to the corpses left by the Miao people who killed each other on the banks of the Hongshui River, and the corpses obviously left traces of being eaten by Gu worms.
Xiao Yao suspected that the people who caused the turmoil in the entire Miao Xinjiang at this time were not the Miao people in the southwest or the subordinates of the Xuanluo Divine Sect leader Wu Ming, but the Miao people themselves, at least there were a large number of Miao people in this force that invaded Miao Xinjiang, or capable people who were also good at driving Gu worms.
As I walked along the road, the colorful patterns on the rocks and trees on the side of the road appeared more and more frequently, but the Gu insects that were supposed to appear in these places were not seen.
Further on, the corpses of Miao warriors can be seen almost everywhere, and even the corpses of the shoppers with various piccolos on their bodies have been found sporadically, including many people with various bird feathers on their heads.
The clothes on these people are all ordinary blue and black cloth hexagrams, and there is no difference in appearance, and there is no difference between them and the disciples of the Rotten Immortal Sect that Xiao Yao saw in the ninety thousand mountains that day, and they should all be disciples of the Rotten Immortal Sect.
But the strange thing is that in addition to these corpses that look like disciples of the Rotten Immortal Sect along the way, I didn't see the corpses of people from other forces, and even the weapons that fell to the ground were all common Miao and knife hidden weapons in Miao Jiang, and I didn't see any special blades.
In addition to human corpses, the corpses of Gu worms are not a few, what flying centipedes, red hair pupae, golden nematodes abound, some of these Gu worms are violent, some have sharp chelicera, and some are extremely tenacious.
Xue Mengran saw a Gu worm that couldn't be named, most of its head was gnawed off by something, and its body was dripping with cyan juice, while arching around in a pile of insect corpses, as if looking for his missing head.
Seeing this, Xue Mengran's hairs all over his body were about to stand up, and the python whip in his hand was covered with his head and slashed towards the headless Gu worm, and the Gu worm had no head, so naturally he couldn't see it and couldn't avoid Xue Mengran's thunderous whip.
only heard the sound of 'pop', and was violently pumped out by Xue Mengran, and cyan juice splashed everywhere.
The insect corpse crashed into a nearby tree, smashing a small crater in the tree, and then bounced to the ground again.
Xue Mengran took back the python whip and was about to tie it back to her waist, when she suddenly saw that the whip was stained with a lot of cyan juice, and she suddenly felt nauseous, she originally liked the python whip given to her by her father very much, but at this time, she secretly thought in her heart, after returning to the Ninety Thousand Mountain, she would have to change the whip again no matter what, and she began to regret it a little in her heart, why didn't she listen to her father Xue Zhanlong's words, and had to come to this Phoenix Mountain full of Gu insects.
It's just that she is arrogant by nature, and since she has already spoken in front of her father and eldest brother, even if she dies, she will not flee back to the Ninety Thousand Mountains now.
Speaking of the python whip, he whipped the ground a few times, trying to shake off the worm juice on the whip with the help of dust, but the cyan juice seemed to be very viscous, and although it was covered with dust, it still did not fall from the whip.
Xue Mengran's eyes were slightly wrinkled, but there was no good way, so he had to grab the whip in his hand and not tie it to his body.
However, it was said that Xue Mengran's python whip was powerful and heavy, and it was whipped a few times on the ground, as if a few thunderbolts were blown out of thin air, and the sound was rolling in all directions.
The headless Gu worm actually began to twist its body again at this time, and it turned out that it had just fainted from being whipped on its body by Xue Mengran.
The python whip in Xue Mengran's hand couldn't help the dark brown insect beetle on its body, and when they saw this scene, even Xiao Yao and Lian Yingxue were slightly shocked.
This seemingly ordinary Gu worm actually has such a copper skin and iron bones, even with Xiao Yao's current martial arts, if he doesn't rely on the benefits of the Immortal Sword in his hand, or the superb internal strength on his body, it will not be easy to kill it with foreign kung fu, that Gu worm that can gnaw off half of its head, can the degree of sharp teeth and sharp mouth be comparable to that of a divine soldier.
Just when Xiao Yao was thinking about it again and again, Lian Yingxue suddenly shot out a cyan flying needle, and the technique of her secret weapon was thought to be the master of her mother, the ghost Sangu Emperor Ru Xia, and it was not as long as the changes of Tianyuanzi Zhu's three Ganges sand and starry sky, the only advantage was that it was urgent and accurate.
It may be due to the fact that Lian Yingxue is relatively young, Xiao Yao feels that the flying needle she shot is a few points faster than that of the third aunt of the uncle, but when he saw a flash of blue light, the flying needle had already drilled out along the wound on the headless Gu worm's body.
Originally, he had lost his head and was whipped by Xue Mengran, and the Gu worm that writhed incessantly, at this time, after being hit by a flying needle that was not good-looking, he suddenly seemed to have lost his soul, and his body stiffened, and there was no movement at all.
Xue Mengran looked at Lian Yingxue on the side, her face flushed with excitement and clapped her hands desperately: "Sister Pian, you are so powerful, you killed that disgusting monster in one fell swoop."
It's a pity that the words haven't been finished yet, and after seeing Lian Yingxue's next move, Xue Mengran's face changed suddenly.
It turned out that after Pian Yingxue subdued the headless insect Gu with a fixed wooden needle, she actually stepped forward and took out a white porcelain bottle, and then put away the headless Gu worm that was stiff and motionless.
Xue Mengran didn't know the origin of Lian Yingxue, but only knew that the other party was Xiao Yaoxiao's big brother's friend, and all the way from the Ninety Thousand Mountain, Xue Mengran thought that he could still see a few points of the depth of Lian Yingxue's martial arts.
Until the bank of the Hongshui River, the inconspicuous and unleaking Lian Yingxue forced those hateful insects with medicinal powder as soon as she made a move, and now she used a hidden weapon to restrain the headless insects that she couldn't help, which made the arrogant Xue Mengran somewhat disappointed, as for the scene when the last pity Yingxue took away the headless insects, Xue Mengran vaguely remembered the Wu Dongling in the poisonous dragon cave that day
But it was said that it was just a momentary move for Lian Yingxue to put away this headless Gu worm, originally Miao Jiang's Gu technique originated from the plague god Emperor Shi Tian, that is, the medical technique of Emperor Shennong's Gu Technique, and it was a Gu worm cultivated by the Rotten Immortal Sect in this Miao Xinjiang area, and most of them had heard her mother Emperor Ruxia talk about it.
This kind of invulnerability is not impossible, but it can only be possessed by an adult Gu worm named Qingshen Gu, but that Qingshen Gu is one of the Wang Gu, and it is extremely difficult to refine before the adult worm has to go through several tribulations, once it can be refined, it is impenetrable to water and fire, and there are almost not many Gu worms that can match it, even ordinary martial arts masters are by no means its opponents.
The headless Gu insect in front of him is also a little bigger than the adult of the Qingshen Gu, although the leather armor on his body can withstand Xue Mengran's python whip, but it is still far from the level of invulnerability to the copper skin and iron bones, it is obviously not the legendary Qingshen Gu, it should be a new variety practiced by these Miao people in imitation of the appearance of the Qingshen Gu, and it is precisely because of this that Pian Yingxue moved her mind to grasp it and prepare to study it slowly.
Lian Yingxue had just put away the headless Gu worm here, and Xiao Yao suddenly whispered, "Yingxue, Miss Xue, someone is here." ”
When Lian Yingxue heard Xiao Yao's words, she hurriedly put the jade bottle back in her arms and walked to Xiao Yao's side.
On the contrary, Xue Mengran was startled at first, then looked around in a little panic, and then the panic slowly turned into doubt, and finally looked at Xiao Yao a little strangely, and the eyes seemed to ask again, "Where is the enemy?"
At this moment, a sudden breeze blew, and Xue Mengran heard some unusual noises from the wind, and hurriedly retreated to Xiao Yao's side.
As soon as she retreated, a group of Miao people suddenly came out of the jungle on the left.
The total number of these Miao people is about seventeen or eighteen, and the three Miao people led by them have white bird feathers on their heads, obviously all of them are the masters of the Rotten Immortal Sect, and the rest are all dressed as Miao warriors.
These people were originally ordered by someone to go down the mountain to the bank of the Hongshui River to wait for a few guests with great status, who would have thought that before they could go down the mountain, they heard the thunder of Xue Mengran's python whip.
At this critical moment, he followed the path of the sound, and found Xiao Yao and a few people, originally looking for the sound of some kind of alien beast thunderfrog on Phoenix Mountain, who knew that when the sound came from, he did not find the alien beast thunderfrog, but found three people.
And judging from the dress of these three people, it is clear that they are not the local Miao people in Miao Jiang, but the Han people who came from nowhere, one of the Miao people came forward to ask a few words in Miao language, and before he finished speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the silver armband on Xue Mengran's arm.
With a high shout, he took out the flute he was carrying and blew it, and for a while, a large number of swarthy Gu worms came out from under his wide black clothes and black pants, and rushed towards Xiao Yao, Lian Yingxue and others.
Xue Mengran had already seen such a scene of insect tide surging on the river beach, and at this time, she still felt that her scalp was numb and her feet trembled, although she remembered that the medicinal powder that Lian Yingxue sprinkled on her could expel the insect Gu, but these insect Gu were not the same as those insect Gu on the river beach, and I don't know how long it had been since they walked here from the river beach, and those medicinal powders didn't know if they had any effect.
Compared to Xue Mengran, Xiao Yao and Lian Yingxue are too indifferent, Xiao Yao himself has taken the peerless elixir since he was a child, and the Gu poison of these insects is still helpless, and Lian Yingxue was born in the Shennong clan can be said to be the ancestor of Miao Jiang's Gu technique, these black Gu worms are just a low-level Gu worm recorded in the Gu Technique chapter of the Shennong's Medicine Sutra, which is neither a treasure, nor a new Gu developed by the Miao people themselves, how can they be looked at by her.
casually sprinkled a puff of yellow medicinal powder at the surging insect tide, and those black Gu insects withered one after another, and they turned over one by one, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.
