While I was talking, I couldn't help but stare at the places where the three silver needles were pierced. These three places were about the size of a fingernail and formed a bulge.
And from the outside, there are some slight outlines, which makes me feel like they are bugs.
Bruises have appeared around these three places, as if poisonous insects have crawled over them, which looks a bit shocking.
At this time, Hu Xue also saw the old man's abnormality, exclaimed and rushed over.
"Grandpa, what's going on?"
As she spoke, she was about to reach out to touch the silver needle on the old man's neck, but the little Taoist priest in green grabbed her wrist.
"Don't move!"
"What's wrong?" Hu Xue looked puzzled.
The little Taoist priest in green didn't pay attention to her, but instead his eyes fell on me.
"Do you see what's going on?"
I looked at the silver needle, which was the same color as usual. It had not turned black, which meant it was not poison. I frowned slightly and thought for a moment. I couldn't help but think of the secrets about southern Xinjiang that my grandfather once told me.
"Is this a Gu insect?" I said with some uncertainty.
The little Taoist priest in green was slightly surprised, and then nodded gently.
My face became extremely solemn in an instant, I was in trouble now!
"What is a Gu insect?" Hu Xue asked.
"A poisonous insect specially bred to harm people!" I explained simply.
"What the hell is going on? How could the old man be bewitched?" I asked in confusion.
The little Taoist priest in green shook his head slightly, and then looked at Mr. Hu.
The old man gritted his teeth bitterly, and a look of anger appeared on his weak face.
"Hey, the big tree attracts the wind. Someone wants my Hu family to fall down!"
I was slightly shocked because the old man's words contained too much information.
The Hu family has a great business, and it is understandable that some people want to care about it, but why do they provoke the most feared Miao witchcraft!
You must know that this thing is more terrifying and difficult to deal with than the so-called mountain spirits and wild monsters, evil ghosts and evil spirits.
Grandpa once solemnly told me that in addition to not allowing me to go to the northern territory, he also told me not to provoke the Miao wizards.
Because the Miao people are good at raising Gu!
In fact, the art of cultivating gu is a kind of witchcraft that has been around for a long time. If we really pursue the origin, their origin may be thousands of years earlier than Taoist culture. But at that time, they were called wizards or witch doctors, and they were specially used to treat diseases and save people.
It's just that magic is not good or bad, but people are divided into good and evil. This is human nature and there is no way to avoid it. In this process, people with ulterior motives slowly appeared. Witchcraft is not only used for
Although it was used to treat illnesses, some people began to use it to harm others.
They achieved the purpose of harming people by refining corpses or raising poisonous insects. In the end, two factions were formed, one was the head-lowering technique, and the other was raising poisonous people.
It's just that this kind of thing is too vicious, and the cultivation method is extremely cruel and vicious, and has a great backlash effect. It is said that many people will be made into humans and ghosts in the future, so that they are already very...
Few people would choose to be a head-dropper or a gu cultivator.
My grandfather once specifically told me not to deal with these two types of people under any circumstances, because once I come into contact with these two types of people, I might be accidentally harmed without knowing it.
Already.
For example, if someone plants a poison in your body, it will kill you in a matter of minutes, and you don't even know when you were infected.
So when I saw that the old man had been poisoned, you can imagine my surprise. How could the old man offend such a person?
Seeing my serious expression, the young Taoist priest in green asked, "Can you tell what kind of poison it is?"
I shook my head gently. Although my family's notes also recorded methods for cultivating and removing poisons, there were still too few of them. In addition, I had never touched or practiced them, so I didn't dare to say.
You know it yourself.
"If even you Zhang family can't do anything, then you're really in trouble!" The little Taoist priest in green frowned tightly.
Not to mention, this guy is extremely handsome, but when he frowns like this, he looks so handsome in a different way!
"Aren't you very powerful? There's nothing you can do about it?" I asked.
Perhaps he heard something in my words, he glanced at me lightly and said: "I practice Taoist Haoran Zhengqi, which is the method of destroying ghosts and evil spirits. I have no experience with this kind of thing!"
I nodded and found some balance in my heart.
There is no way, this guy has been too strong since he appeared, and his methods are amazing. He has a feeling that he is definitely trying to overwhelm me. I always thought that he has no shortcomings!
Hu Xue grabbed my wrist and shook it hard.
"Brother-in-law, you must save my grandpa, please!"
"Xiaoxue, what are you talking about!" Hu Qiu's voice came from behind me. I turned around and saw that this girl's face was red.
I could only comfort Hu Xue softly, saying that I would do my best.
Then he looked at the little Taoist priest in green and asked, "What's going on with these three silver needles?"
"I nailed it, but I haven't had time to take it out yet. I wonder if it's still inside the body?" said the young Taoist priest in Qingyi.
Hearing what he said, I nodded gently, thinking that this was the only way to go. I would take it out first and see what was inside.
"How are you going to get it?" I asked.
The little Taoist priest in green frowned, "I don't know yet. This thing moves too fast and is very powerful. It can move inside the flesh at will. It is not that easy to take it out. Once the silver needle is loose,
Or if you’re not careful, they might get into the flesh!”
I quite agree with what he said.
"Did you lure them out of your body?" I asked.
The little Taoist priest in green nodded and did not deny it.
I thought about it and said, "Rather than cutting the old man's skin to take them out, it would be safer to kill them directly inside the old man's body!"
"Kill him inside? How to kill him?" the little Taoist priest in green asked.
"It's easy, just go outside and use a musket to burn the silver needle red, so that the poisonous insects can be scalded to death."
The little Taoist priest in green's eyes suddenly lit up, "This is indeed a good method, simple and effective, but are you sure you can kill it?"
"Of course, no matter how powerful they are, they are just bugs. If they really get into the body, there is nothing we can do. How can we not kill them now that they are nailed by silver needles?" I said.
"No, no, no, this is too messy, you burn the silver needles
If it burns red, it can kill those bugs, but didn’t my grandfather also get burned to death?"
The young Taoist priest in Qingyi and I looked at each other and both looked at the old man.
