Looking at his look, I couldn't help but laugh or cry, but I was also prepared. As long as there was any problem, I would mobilize the power of asking God for help as soon as possible.
As soon as I entered the temple, I was shocked by the scene inside.
Zhang Mingyu was not much better, his face turned a little pale.
Different from what is usually seen outside, the temple is filled with various bottles and jars, both transparent and opaque.
And inside those opaque bottles and jars, there were all kinds of weird bugs. Just taking a look at those bugs, I felt my scalp numb unconsciously.
It's much more disgusting than the Soul-Eating Gu I saw before.
Especially in a large bottle, I saw a black bug the size of my palm, and the bug had a very human-like face, which looked very scary.
Just looking at it, I felt goosebumps all over my body and felt very uncomfortable.
"Why are there so many bugs here?"
I couldn't help but complain.
Zhang Mingyu swallowed and said helplessly: "This is the residence of the King of Gu. It is normal to have these bugs. If I guessed correctly, these should be the insects raised by the King of Gu."
"I just don't know why the Gu King keeps these Gu insects here, so I'm not afraid..."
Before Zhang Mingyu could say anything, I heard a burst of footsteps. The two of us looked up at the same time, and a figure appeared in front of us at this time.
An old man who looked to be in his seventies or eighties walked toward us on crutches.
The old man was wearing a white robe, and did not have a turban on his head like the people I saw outside before. He looked more like an ordinary old man, and his face was already covered with wrinkles.
Looking at him, I don't know why, but I feel a little nervous for no reason. Even though his demeanor looks quite kind, he seems to have an innate majesty in him. Under this majesty, even if he is smiling,
You know, I'm a little nervous too.
If nothing else, this person is the Gu King.
When we look at him, he looks at us.
However, he only glanced at Zhang Mingyu, then set his eyes on me. After staring at me for a while, he said, "Give me that thing."
I was stunned for a moment.
But he quickly reacted and quickly took out the box containing the Soul-eating Gu female worm and handed it over.
I don't know why he knew I had this thing, but the feeling he gave me was that I couldn't think of rejecting it.
I'm almost certain.
Just based on this momentum.
Only the City God of Dragon Burial Village can compare.
As for other city gods, none of them can compare.
This Gu King... is not simple.
I was thinking to myself, and couldn't help but glance at Zhang Mingyu again. Zhang Mingyu was still very nervous, staring at the old man in front of him, and seemed to be ready to fight for his life.
I really wanted to tell him that if this old man wanted to take action, we might not even have a chance to escape.
After the Gu King took the box, he opened it directly. He didn't seem to worry at all about the danger of the soul-eating Gu mother worm inside. He even grabbed the worms out with his hands after opening the box, as if
Determine what.
After a while, he put the box away and looked at me.
"Little guy, do you want to go to Zhongdong Gu Village?"
I was stunned for a moment, but nodded.
At this point, I am almost certain that this Gu King should know a lot of things, but I don't know if it has something to do with Li Bowen.
If it has nothing to do with Li Bowen, then it would be a bit unbelievable that he knew the reason why I came here and also knew that I had the female soul-eating Gu worm on me.
King Gu pondered for a moment and then said: "I can let you in."
"But you have to agree to one condition."
"What conditions?" I asked.
King Gu was also straightforward, as if he didn't want to beat around the bush with me, and said directly: "I know you came here to control the coffin."
When I heard the words "coffin-suppressing", my brows furrowed even more.
He continued: "The coffin is extremely special, even now many people in this holy village covet it."
"These people are hiding in the Holy Village. Even if I want to find them all, it will not be easy. And if there is no way to find them all, it will also be a big trouble for the Holy Village."
"So after one day, I will allow anyone to enter the Zhongdong Gu Stronghold. I hope you can find those people in the Zhongdong Gu Stronghold."
"And, kill them!"
My eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
"What did you say?"
I looked at him in disbelief.
He actually asked me to kill someone for him so lightly?
What a joke.
You know, I have indeed seen many dead people along the way, and many people died in front of me, but after all, I did not kill them, so I do not feel too much burden in my heart.
But now he wants me to take the initiative to kill people.
And listening to what he said, after he allows everyone to enter the Zhongdong Gu Village, there will most likely be many people who covet the town's coffin.
Is it possible that by then we will have to kill as many people as we can?
I can't do it.
I am not an executioner, nor am I a walking corpse ghost who kills people without batting an eyelid, nor am I one of those false gods who can slaughter ordinary people for their own selfish purposes.
"As long as you agree, I can not only let you in."
"It can also ensure that you will not be affected by the poison inside, allowing you to find the coffin more safely."
The Gu King looked at me.
Without thinking much, I shook my head and said, "If you go in, I will kill someone for you."
"I can't do it."
King Gu didn't care about my rejection, he just smiled lightly and said: "If those people..."
"Is it related to the City God?"
I was stunned again.
"What's the meaning?"
King Gu thought for a moment and then looked at me and said: "Your name is Li Xuantian. You come from Niang'er Village. You just went to Burying Dragon Village a few days ago and studied under Li Bowen of Tianshi Mountain."
I looked at him warily.
"You don't have to be nervous." King Gu still chuckled.
"The female soul-eating Gu worm you brought was given to you by Li Bowen."
I fell silent.
It seems that this place still has something to do with Li Bowen.
But I still looked at him and asked, "What does this have to do with letting me kill people?"
King Gu continued: "The place where the coffin is located is one of the twelve underworld roads. You should also know this."
"The city god who guards this Huangquan Road is now in this holy village."
"Even I can't be sure which one is him."
"I can only confirm that he, like you, wants to enter the Zhongdong Gu Village and return to the Huangquan Road."
I just felt that my brain was a little weak, and at the same time I was even more puzzled. The City God guarding Huangquan Road was very capable.
Take the city god of Buried Dragon Village as an example.
In order to kill him, two living immortals were killed, and even a group of people from the Tianshi Shannanyin lineage died. Under such circumstances, I reluctantly picked up the leak, and the horror was evident.
Such a existence.
Is it possible that in this Miao territory, it is still impossible to return to Huangquan Road?
