It turned out that Elder Zheng had searched Elder Qu's yard just after his death. Of course, the first thing he searched was the medicine room. After no clues were found in the medicine room, he searched the study.
The elder is an old fox, and he quickly discovered the trap on the bookshelf. After opening the trap, the secret room came into view.
As soon as he saw the secret room, he couldn't wait to go in. When he saw the jars, he seemed very excited.
The jar is sealed, but he knows that there must be no King of Ten Thousand Gus in it. The King of Ten Thousand Gus has not been refined, and may just be dormant now. Therefore, it will definitely not be sealed in the jar. However, the Gu worms in these jars
It should be a very rare Gu insect. It was impossible for him to take away all these jars at once, so he only asked his disciples to take away one jar first.
Because, he believed that these jars were actually his, so it didn't matter where they were placed.
After looking around, he found that there was really no trace of the Ten Thousand Gu King in the secret room, and he seemed very disappointed. But fortunately, he had harvested so many Gu insects, and left Elder Qu's courtyard with his disciples. Of course, this
This was the first time they searched Elder Qu's yard, and it was during this time that Elder Qu's yard was smashed to pieces.
After searching around for a while, the elder Zheng returned to his yard. It was also because he wanted to know what kind of rare poisonous insects were in the jar that he quickly returned to his medicine room.
After the elder entered the medicine room, he saw that the jar had been placed on the table. He opened the jar excitedly, only to find that there was a half-dead black Gu worm inside. He was immediately disappointed. It seemed that the jar was sealed in
It was not what he imagined. There might be some such Gu insects in the jar.
So, he did not put the Gu insects away, but gave it to the disciple at the door to dispose of the jar. As a result, the disciple accidentally broke the jar, and his finger was immediately scratched. The blood on his hand flowed down.
On the ground, the half-dead Gu insect seemed to smell the blood and jumped into the disciple's wound.
A heartbreaking pain made the disciple grimace. Because of the sudden change, the elder was also caught off guard.
The elder quickly pressed down the disciple's arm with his hand, trying to control the Gu insect to continue drilling inside. However, the Elder was still a step too late. The Gu insect disappeared, and the disciple was sweating profusely, and the pain seemed to be even worse.
The elder frowned slightly. He was originally full of confidence, but he couldn't do anything.
When he saw the disciple's belly began to swell, it quickly grew bigger as if he had blown air. He looked at the disciple in surprise, and the disciple's eyes began to change. He saw that the whites of his eyeballs were gone, and the inside of his eye sockets had disappeared.
They were all black and looked very scary. The elder was a little overwhelmed and had no idea what to do. He took out a medicine bottle, poured out a pill and wanted to give it to his disciple, but he found that the disciple was already bleeding from all his orifices. However,
The disciple was not dead, but he was rolling on the ground and seemed to be in great pain.
After about five breaths, the disciple was like a deflated rubber ball, and a stream of liquid flowed out of the disciple's mouth.
The elder was almost frightened. By the time he reacted, the disciple had long since lost his breath. And what flowed out of his mouth was not blood, but a thick liquid. The disciple seemed to have no bones, leaving only
A skin bag.
I saw that the disciple seemed to be moving. The elder stepped back, only to find that
It's not that the disciple has been resurrected, but that the Gu worms that have penetrated the disciple's body have sucked out the disciple's essence and blood, and the current reaction should be that he has been resurrected.
The elder took a breath of cold air, and the bug slowly crawled out of the disciple's mouth. The bug that was originally as big as a fingernail has now become as big as the palm of his hand. Without thinking, he quickly collected the bug in a jar.
He went in and put the lid on. Finally, he used wax to seal the jar and put it in the medicine room.
Because he was worried that other disciples would know this, he secretly buried this disciple in the back mountain. Since this incident, he has never taken these jars from this secret room again. Since the jars have been sealed, Elder Qu must have
Knowing that these Gu insects are very dangerous, they put them in this secret room.
After listening to Elder Zheng's words, Elder Feng wondered why he was not the one who caused the poison. That disciple died unjustly, but this is enough to prove that Elder Qu did not put away these jars and was not worried that anyone would dare to touch them.
The Gu worms here. Even after the disciple died, even if the elder knew that the Gu worms in this jar were extremely precious, he did not dare to take them away easily.
"It turns out that something like this happened before. It seems that the Gu insects in these jars are not good people. But I still don't understand something. How can Senior Brother be so sure that there is no Wan Gu King in this jar?" Elder Feng said slowly.
asked slowly.
The elder Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Junior brother is not proficient in the art of Gu, that's why I ask this question. The King of Ten Thousand Gus has been in a dormant state since our ancestors. Moreover, it has been a hundred years, who can guarantee that the King of Ten Thousand Gus will be in a dormant state at that time?
Is the King of Gu still dormant? I am just guessing that what has been preserved is probably only the eggs or larvae of the King of Gu. This jar is sealed with wax, so there cannot be eggs or larvae in it."
"Since there are no clues here, let's go outside. After hearing what my senior brother said, I felt a little scared when I looked at these jars." Elder Feng said anxiously.
"I believe that nothing will happen if you don't open these jars. Look, there are a lot of books here in Laoqu. I wonder if we can find clues to the Ten Thousand Gu King from these books?" Elder Zheng didn't want to give up any clues.
, but after so many years, he is actually still a little discouraged.
"Senior brother is right. Why don't we sit here for a while and look at the notes or records here. Maybe we can really find the records and storage methods of King Wan Gu. And senior brother said that the way King Wan Gu is stored is
It seems a little special, so if we find out how to store it in a special way, we can probably know where the Wan Gu King should be?" Elder Feng said.
"Junior brother is right, let's rest for a while. It would be good to read here." Elder Zheng said.
Elder Feng wiped the stool with a rag, then sat down with Elder Zheng and looked at the books on the bookshelf.
Everything recorded here is about poisons, and Elder Feng happened to not be interested in poisons, so he started to feel sleepy after reading half of it.
Elder Zheng naturally saw Elder Feng's appearance. He smiled and said, "Junior brother, let's pack up and go back to rest. I think we won't be able to find any clues today."
Elder Feng wiped away the drool and said with some embarrassment: "Brother, I am not interested in these Gu refining techniques, that's why I feel sleepy. I'm really sorry that I didn't help much, and I almost fell asleep.
"
"Can you come with me to collect it?
I have been looking for clues and it has helped. How could I not know you for so many years? You have not been interested in refining Gu since you were a child. Naturally, you will feel sleepy after reading these books. Okay, let's pack up and go back to the room.
I don't think there are any clues about the study, and now only his bedroom is left." The elder said with a frown.
He also has some doubts now, suspecting that there is no existence of King of Ten Thousand Gus at all. Otherwise, Elder Qu has always been cautious. There is no trace of King of Ten Thousand Gus even in such a safe place as the secret room in the study, so how could he put it somewhere else?
Woolen cloth?
"Okay, why don't we go back and eat something first, and then we'll come back. I also want to help senior brother find it quickly, and we can't let our things in Yaowang Valley disappear like this." Elder Feng said slowly.
"Why don't you come to my place to eat? My place is close to Laoqu." Elder Zheng asked.
"Okay, senior brother, I can't think of a meal if you don't mention it. Now that you mention it, I feel a little hungry." Elder Feng said with a smile.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go." The two people left the secret room. Although Elder Feng did not take away any book in the secret room, he made a small mark on the book he was reading and put it back on the bookshelf.
Then he followed the elder and left.
After the two of them had their meal, they rested for half an hour before turning back to Lao Qu's yard.
In the past two days, the two of them had been cleaning up Elder Qu's yard, but they didn't find what Elder Zheng wanted.
In the evening, the two people returned to the yard separately.
That night, Elder Feng secretly returned to Elder Qu's yard. He quietly entered the study, then triggered the machine to enter the secret room. There were two luminous pearls inlaid on the wall of the secret room, so it was like daylight inside and did not affect the vision at all.
After entering, Elder Feng quickly found the book he had marked and put it in his arms. When he was about to leave, he found something seemed to be moving in the corner of the secret room. Only then did he notice that these two stars
The position of the luminous pearl is staggered, and the place where it shines is also very clever. Elder Feng looked at the direction of the luminous pearl and adjusted the angle, and found that the luminous pearl formed a curve. The position of this curve is on the second shelf of the bookshelf
On the top, he counted carefully and it happened to be the seventh book. When he was about to pick up the seventh book, he found that he couldn't pick it up. He remembered the words of the elder Zheng, because after he saw the jar containing the Gu worms, he
He didn't pay attention to the facilities inside. Therefore, he didn't discover the refraction direction of the luminous pearl, which meant that he didn't discover the secret of the book. He turned the book to the left. After the book was moved, a drawer popped out from the bottom of the bookshelf. The drawer was very small.
Qian, there was only one letter inside. Elder Feng did not stay here. After taking the letter, he left the courtyard.
After he returned to the house, he took out the book and letter. There was nothing written on the envelope. After putting it down, he looked at the book again. Because he saw blood stains on the book, and there were blood stains on it.
That page happened to be written about the King of Ten Thousand Gus. That's why he took the book back in the middle of the night. But he didn't expect that he would gain something after going to the secret room at night, and actually found this letter. His intuition told him
, the content of this letter should be about why the Great Elder wanted to kill Lao Qu. In fact, the Great Elder personally talked about his ambitions just a few days ago. Therefore, he should be able to guess what Elder Qu wanted to say.
What was it? He couldn't light the candle in the middle of the night, so he put the letter under his pillow, changed his clothes and lay down.
