Chapter 336 Little bumpkin

Zhang Rishan shook his head and exclaimed: "You know a lot!"

Xu Feng: "I've only read about it in books, but I've never seen it in real life!"

In fact, Xu Feng had seen it.

Apart from other things, he encountered quite a few on his way to the Qixing Lu Palace. For example, when they passed through the water cave, the stone sculptures of the Tang Dynasty Demon Suppression Division that they saw under the water, and the worms hidden in their bodies were actually a kind of Gu worm.

There are also man-eating worms hidden in the corpses hanging upside down in the air.

It is also a type of poisonous insect.

At this time, Wu Congyi nodded and said: "Mr. Xu, what you said is indeed the general understanding of the world's insect poison technique, but in fact, the real insect poison technique is more evil, more cruel, and more violent."

"It is also because the art of insect poisoning is too harmful to nature. People who practice it often turn themselves into something neither human nor ghost, and end up with a bad end. So gradually, no one practices it anymore."

"As far as I know, there are no more than a handful of people in the Miao villages throughout Xiangxi who know how to use insect poison."

Xu Feng: "Then among the people you know, no one knows about the Three Souls Gu?!"

Wu Congyi shook his head: "The Three Souls Gu belongs to Yin Gu, which is an extremely sophisticated Gu technique. Since the death of the Xiangxi Gu King, the cultivation method has been lost and no one knows it."

"Yin Gu?"

Xu Feng was full of curiosity: "What is Yin Gu?!"

Wu Congyi: "The so-called Yin Gu is similar to the soul of the insect Gu that is extracted and cultivated. The insect Gu cultivated in this way is invisible and bodyless, just like a ghost, and can quietly parasitize other people's bodies."

Xu Feng was shocked when he heard this: "So evil? Then this kind of Gu is impossible to defend against?!"

Wu Congyi nodded: "Yes, this is the power of Yin Gu, it can invade your body when you don't know, the most terrifying thing is that it not only erodes your soul, but also your body.

Xu Feng: "So how are the two children doing now?"

Wu Congyi shook his head: "Very bad!"

"Three Souls Gu, as the name suggests, it attacks a person's three souls!"

"A person has three fires, representing three souls, one on the top of the head and the other on both shoulders. The Yang fire on the top of the head is the most important. If the Yang fire on a person's head goes out, it means that the person is dead."

"At this moment, the Yang Fire on the shoulders of the two children has been extinguished. If I hadn't used some means in time, I'm afraid they would have died."

"Now, the sun fire above their heads has only a tiny glow left. I estimate that they have at most five days left."

When Xu Feng heard the deadline of five days, he was shocked.

The beautiful young woman who was supporting the old lady couldn't help sobbing softly, and the old lady kept wiping away her tears.

Including Mr. Zheng and Zheng Haiyuan, their eyes suddenly turned red.

I guess if there weren't outsiders at home, they would have started crying too.

Seeing this, Xu Feng sighed, then looked at Zhang Rishan and said, "Tell me, what can I do for you?!"

Zhang Rishan smiled and said, "I would like to invite you to go with me to the tomb of the Gu King in western Hunan."

Xu Feng looked at Zhang Rishan in surprise: "The tomb of the Xiangxi Gu King?!"

"After all this time, you want me to accompany you to the grave?!"

Zhang Rishan smiled and spread his hands: "What else? Ask you to treat the disease? Or can you exorcise the poison?!"

Xu Feng: "...Uh, let's talk about going to the tomb. I'm more professional in this area."

After a pause, he continued, "Why did you suddenly think of going to the tomb? Is it related to curing illness?"

Zhang Rishan nodded: "About the same."

Xu Feng looked puzzled: "Is there a prescription for curing diseases in the tomb of the Gu King of Western Hunan?" Zhang Rishan shook his head: "I don't know."

"do not know?"

Xu Feng was almost speechless: "Then why did you urge me to come and accompany you to the tomb? Is it so casual?"

Zhang Rishan lowered his head and chuckled.

Zheng Haiyuan then said, "Let me explain the "527"!"

He looked at Xu Feng: "Ever since Master Wu found out that the child was poisoned by a Gu, we have been thinking about what went wrong, how our family came into contact with the Xiangxi Gu King, and how we offended him."

"I really thought about it for a long time, and finally, my father remembered that when he was young, he once opened a tomb with someone...
As Zheng Haiyuan continued to tell the story, Xu Feng finally understood what was going on.

It turned out that after the people from Jiumen left Nanhu, the old man of the Zheng family took over part of Jiumen's business, including the business of digging for treasures in tombs.

At that time, the old man of the Zheng family was in his prime and very brave. He also learned some skills from Jiumen. In order to make money, he dared to dig into any tomb.

One day, he received news that an ancient tomb had been discovered.

It was an ancient tomb located deep in the mountains and forests. The terrain was not prominent, and it was overgrown with weeds. There was not even a tombstone. From the outside, it looked like a small mound of earth. If it were not for an accident, it would have been impossible to discover that it was an ancient tomb.

Of course, the old man of the Zheng family would not let go of this ancient tomb, and he quickly led people down the tomb.

"That day, after we went down into the tomb, we didn't find anything unusual, so everyone thought there was nothing wrong, so we walked along the tomb passage and came to the tomb gate."

"In fact, when we got to the wooden door, no one felt anything was wrong until we tried to open the door, and then something went wrong..."

When the old man of the Zheng family said this, his eyes flickered.

Seems like he's starting to recall the past.

But it was obvious that there was nothing good in his memory, because his brows were tightly furrowed.

"Generally speaking, tomb doors are equipped with mechanisms. As long as we find the right method, we can open the tomb!"

Xu Feng nodded when he heard this: "Indeed..."

After all, they have dug up many tombs and even visited the place where Qin Shihuang was buried, so they certainly understand this.

The old man of the Zheng family continued, "But that day, we searched for a long time, but we couldn't find a way to open the tomb door!"

"Everyone was very anxious about this, but for a moment, we were helpless and could only stand by and worry!"

Xu Feng couldn't help it: "If you can't find the mechanism, just use gunpowder to blow it up..."

Although using gunpowder to blow up the tomb door is actually somewhat dangerous.

Because no one knows whether forcibly blowing up the tomb door will trigger other mechanisms. But in the case that the tomb door cannot be opened, this is also the only option, and gunpowder can be ignited with a fuse.

This can also provide a certain delay in the explosion of the explosives, making it easier for people to stay away.

Therefore, if they couldn't find any way to enter the tomb at the beginning, they might as well give it a try.

After hearing what Gu Cheng said, the old man of the Zheng family began to sigh.

"Back then, we also thought that we could use explosives to blow open the tomb door, but it was because we used explosives that the subsequent events occurred..."

As he said this, he shook his head and sighed, and clenched his fists in regret.

There was no need to listen further, Xu Feng understood!

Next, Mr. Zheng and his family must have encountered difficulties. Looking at the old man's appearance, it seems that the experience was a big blow to him.……..
Xu Feng was puzzled, with confusion on his face.
