After hearing that the poison came out of the body of the dead, the old beggar held on to the railing outside the small building and vomited out all the wine he had drank the previous night.
The second and third elders of the Wusha tribe looked at him with frightened eyes. The strength of a person who could grasp the mature body emotion Gu with two fingers was beyond the limit of their imagination.
After regaining his composure, the second elder came over, handed a bamboo tube to Tang Ning, and said, "Little doctor, I'll leave the Love Gu to you."
Apparently, they also heard the conversation between Tangning and the First Elder outside the door.
Tangning did not refuse. She put away the bamboo tube and stood on the corridor outside the small building, overlooking the tribe below.
The great elder passed away, and bursts of wailing could be heard in the small building behind him. After a while, A'duo walked out of the building with red eyes, looked at Tang Ning, and choked with sobs: "Brother Tang, the great elder has passed away.
Already..."
Tang Ning patted her shoulder gently to express comfort. The Great Elder was the faith and pillar of the Wusha tribe. His death plunged the entire tribe into an atmosphere of sadness.
Wu Qing stood blankly outside the small building, looking confused and a little at a loss.
Tangning walked over and asked, "Is the other Love Gu at your place?"
Wu Qing looked up at him, regained his composure, nodded slightly, and said: "The elder's body is getting worse day by day. Without this love Gu, he would not be able to survive the fifteenth day of this month..."
There is a saying that goes as deep as the love between two people when they are together, and the depth of their hatred when they are apart. Both of them have suffered from the heart-gnawing pain of love for decades, but even so,
Not willing to meet each other, the two tribes have been at odds with each other for so many years. This is the Gu tribe. They treat people warmly, but on some things, they are also almost paranoid and refuse to give in.
The great elder's funeral was prepared for three days, and his coffin was placed on a cliff in the mountain stream. This is a unique funeral custom of the Gu tribe.
The cliff is steep and dangerous, with a deep stream at the bottom and no way to climb it. This is the cemetery of the Wusha tribe. The higher the position of the coffin, the more respect the living people have for the deceased. The coffin of the great elder is located at the highest position on the cliff.
After burying the great elder, everyone in the Wu Sha tribe sent the Love Gu to Wu Qing's tribe according to his last wish.
In addition to the two elders and three elders, the Wusha tribe also sent ten young men to accompany them.
Tangning walked in front, looked back at the second elder, and asked, "What's going on with the female elder and the first elder?"
The second elder breathed a sigh of relief and did not hide anything. He said: "In order to compete for the saint, Elder Tian killed several tribesmen and committed an unforgivable mistake. The first elder expelled her according to the clan rules.
After leaving the tribe, when she left, she took half of the tribe with her and reorganized a new Wusha Tribe. Over the past few decades, she has been in constant dispute with our tribe..."
What the second elder said happened seventy or eighty years ago.
This is also the reason why Wu Qing's tribe has been fighting with them for decades.
Tangning also got more information from his words that he didn't know before.
The Gu tribe is good at raising poisonous insects, and the birth of the poisonous insects is to put all kinds of poisonous insects together and let them fight each other. In the end, only the most poisonous insect will be left, and the rest of the poisonous insects will become the poisonous insects in the process of refining the poisonous insects.
victim.
The Wan Gu Sect chooses a saint, which is another form of refining Gu.
Before selecting a saint, each of the ten meridians will select a woman as one of the candidates for the saint. At that time, the ten of them will lead several followers into a dangerous place, and whoever can come out alive in the end will be
She is the next saint.
The remaining candidates for the saint either surrendered to the saint or sacrificed themselves to the poison. The fierce competition was no less fierce than the fight between the poison and the poison in the process of refining the poison.
Eighty years ago, there was such a saint candidate in the Wusha tribe. In the process of competing for the saint, she sacrificed her followers for the position of saint, but in the end she did not win the saint.
s position.
After that, she was expelled from the Wusha Tribe, kicked out of the tribe, and separated from the Great Elder. Even though the two had planted a love bug, they never interacted with each other and hated each other for eighty years...
When Wu Qing heard this, he glanced at the second elder and said: "The elder is also for the tribe. If he can become a saint, he will have the opportunity to grow the tribe. Sacrificing a few people is nothing..."
The second elder looked at him coldly and said: "It's okay not to do it for the saint who sacrificed her clan members."
Wu Qing opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.
This is considered a family matter of the Wu Sha Tribe, and Tang Ning cannot comment on it. There is no need to discuss whether it is worthwhile to exchange clan members for a saint. After all, eighty years have passed, and the female elder did not obtain the status of saint in the end.
The great elder's decision according to the clan rules is understandable.
There is no point in arguing about this. What he has to do now is to send the male love Gu to that person so that she will not suffer the heart-gnawing pain of the Gu in the future. This can be regarded as fulfilling the great elder's last wish.
This part of the Wusha tribe lived half a day's journey from A'duo's tribe. Tangning and the others set out early in the morning and arrived in the afternoon.
Wu Qing walked to the gate of the village, said a few words to the guards, and then they opened the gate, and Tang Ning and others walked in slowly.
The people of this tribe were not very polite to the Wusha tribe. When they saw them along the way, they mostly turned their heads and ignored them, not even saying hello.
Wu Qing led them to a stilted building and said, "The elder is inside."
Tangning, the second elder and others walked in and saw an old woman lying on a recliner in the building.
The old woman's face was covered with brown spots, and her skin was loose and adhered to her bones. She watched several people walk in with piercing eyes. There was a trace of expectation hidden in her eyes. She looked at the second elder and asked: "I feel it, it's there."
Here, where is the building, let him come out to see me..."
The second elder looked at her and said: "The great elder has passed away..."
"Wha, what..." The old woman trembled as if she was struck by lightning. She struggled to get up from the recliner, grabbed the second elder's wrist, and said angrily: "What did you say? How did he die? What happened to the building?"
Possibly die?"
Tang Ning handed the bamboo tube to the second elder. The second elder took the bamboo tube and said, "Before the First Elder leaves, let us bring you the Love Gu..."
The old woman looked at the bamboo tube, and when she felt what was in the tube, she fell back on the recliner, and her eyes lost color.
As long as the host does not die, the Love Gu cannot come out. If the Love Gu is broken, it means that its owner is dead.
The old woman lay weakly on the recliner and said in a hoarse voice: "You will never see me until you die, you will never see me until you die..."
The second elder placed the bamboo tube on the table, looked at Tang Ning, and said, "Let's go."
"I was wrong, I was wrong..."
"Don't die, we agreed that we will die together..."
…
When Tang Ning and the second elder walked out of the small building, the old woman was still saying something, but he couldn't quite understand it. When they walked outside, they saw the third elder arguing with an old man about something.
The third elder looked angry and said, "This is what the great elder means!"
The old man snorted coldly and said, "That's your great elder!"
The third elder reminded: "Don't forget, you are also from the Wusha tribe."
"That was before." The old man looked at him and said, "Why should we leave when he drives us away? If he asks us to go back, we will go back!"
Tang Ning shook her head. The two groups of Wusha tribe had a deep hatred. It would not be easy to fulfill the other last wish of the great elder.
As he walked down the steps, he suddenly heard some kind of music coming from behind. Tangning had just heard the sound of the reed pipe not long ago. He looked at the second elder and asked, "Where is the reed pipe playing..."
The second elder turned back, looked at the stilted building above, and said: "Elder Tian has gone..."
…
The old woman also passed away, and died quietly on that recliner.
Some things in this world are just a twist of fate. The great elder committed suicide just to force out the poisonous insects and save her life.
However, Tang Ning sent the Gu worms, and the final outcome was this.
When one Love Gu is nearby, the other one will not go crazy. After the old woman died, the Gu's body was broken and it was easily caught in the bamboo tube.
At the gate of the village, Wu Qing held two bamboo tubes in his hand, looked at the second elder with a complex expression, and said: "Before the elder dies, let us hand over this pair of Gu insects to you."
The second elder sighed softly and was about to reach out to take it when a ray of silver light suddenly flew out of Wu Qing's sleeve and bit the second elder's wrist.
The second elder's expression changed drastically and he said angrily: "Wu Qing, you..."
Wu Qing had a look of confusion on his face and murmured: "I, I don't know, how could the silver-threaded snake..."
The people from the Wusha tribe who followed the second elder had already drawn their weapons and said angrily to Wu Qing and the few people behind him: "Wu Qing, you despicable villain..."
Wu Qing looked flustered and explained: "No, it's not me..."
"How dare you quibble!"
…
Something unexpected happened, and the two gangs faced each other with weapons in hand, and it seemed that a conflict would break out in the next moment.
At this moment, Tang Ning walked forward slowly and waved to everyone in the Wusha tribe, signaling them to put down their weapons.
A'duo looked at him and said in confusion: "Brother Tang..."
Tang Ning gave her a look, looked at a dense forest in front of the village, and said, "Have you seen enough? Come out when you have seen enough..."
