"What are you talking about? How could I let the five Gu control me? I'm in good condition."
My heart was still very hot, and I didn't even listen to Gu Ling's words, so I responded coldly.
Then, I looked towards the dense forest, where there were many old ghosts chasing after me.
They just shouted that they wanted me to kneel down, that they wanted to take my life, and that they wanted to swallow my eyes.
"Young man, don't go too far. Do you really think I don't dare to kill you?"
Ma Tianluo yelled, his eyes became cold, he raised his right hand, his poisonous nails glowed black, and he was ready to take action.
"Dongsheng, don't let down your grandma and your mother. You can't be a puppet."
Gu Ling shouted more and more anxiously.
When I heard this, I was shocked and raised my hand to hit my head hard.
The shock made me wake up a lot.
"I'm fine, I made you worry."
I took a few breaths, finally calmed down, and looked at the Gu spirit with some regret.
Thinking back to the scene just now, I can't help but feel a little scared.
When I was killing Mazhuang, I also had this feeling: anger enveloped my whole body, and I wanted to destroy everything before I gave up.
I just took action and shattered the ghost's heart with one punch.
This is something I could never do before.
At that moment, I really let the five Gu control my body.
Fortunately, I have not completely lost myself.
Amidst the Gu spirit's shouts, I regained my sanity.
"I think it was the scorpion monster that angered the Five Gu, and the old ghost who harmed Mingtao angered you. The Five Gu and you reached the same goal in a short period of time."
Gu Ling said softly.
I nodded, suppressed the anger in my heart, and walked back to Ma Tianluo.
"Great Gu Master, I never thought of falling out with you. It's just that the Five Gus are angry and I can't help it. It will be fine now." I explained with a smile.
"That's good. Otherwise, once a fight breaks out, the situation will be difficult to deal with."
Ma Tianluo's expression returned to normal and he took back his right hand.
"Please tell me, why do you want to learn about the five gu in my body?"
I stopped smiling and stared at Ma Tianluo.
He hesitated for a while and said: "I plan to go to the Poison Mountain. And the Gu worms on your body came from the Poison Mountain. I want to try, with my strength, whether I can survive the trip to the Poison Mountain.
.”
When I heard this place name, my eyes lit up: "Why are you going to Dushan?"
"There is my big enemy in Poison Mountain, and there are some secrets. I must go and see it. Although I lost to the poisonous bug on your body, it will not affect my determination." He said.
"Then, do you know a woman named Long Miaoyun?" I couldn't help but ask.
Ma Tianluo frowned, shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it."
I thought to myself that it was normal for him to stay in the corpse cave for many years and not know what was going on outside.
"Then I wish you a safe journey. Maybe we can meet at Poison Mountain."
I said.
Poison Mountain is related to my mother’s secret. After dealing with the matter at hand, I must go to Poison Mountain.
Ma Tianluo was stunned for a moment, silent for a while, and said: "If you don't have a reason to go, don't go. That place is very dangerous. How many people died there."
After saying this, Ma Tianluo hid in the dense forest.
Those noisy old ghosts also disappeared together.
Along with those red and green eyes disappeared.
The anger in my heart also completely calmed down.
After making sure that Ma Tianluo was far away, Gu Ling said: "This scorpion monster has some real abilities."
I nodded with deep understanding.
He was able to withstand the torture of the scorpion poison, become like this, and still have a heartbeat. Based on this, we know that his endurance is extraordinary.
In addition, all the ghosts in the corpse cave obey his orders.
This Ma Tianluo is no ordinary person.
"Moreover, when he first appeared, he really wanted to kill you. I could feel the strong murderous intent in the cave." Gu Ling continued.
"Really?" I didn't believe it.
"The life Gu has just recovered from his injury. Ma Tianluo hasn't taken it seriously yet."
"But after he got close, he suddenly changed his mind. The reason should be that he noticed that the five gu in your body were unusual. He had no chance of success."
"So, he felt that he wanted to make peace with Chong."
Gu Ling continued.
I followed Gu Ling's prompts and thought about it, and it was exactly what she said.
Ma Tianluo himself is a poisonous monster, and he has brought a lot of old ghosts with him.
In the beginning, he had an overwhelming advantage.
It can be seen that the purpose of his pursuit was to kill me and defend Qingyadong's reputation.
Otherwise, they would not have sent Ma Kaishan to test me in advance.
However, the situation has changed because of the five Gu.
"Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, the five Gu in my body calmed down Ma Tianluo and indirectly helped me."
After I figured out the key, I couldn't help but sigh.
Gu Ling said: "There is nothing to feel sorry for. They have stayed in your body for so many years, and they have to pay some rent."
I thought so, the five poisonous insects stayed in my body for sixteen years.
You can't live in vain.
I collected the insects given by Ma Tianluo and caught them from the Corpse Cave during the day, which was enough to restore the life Gu.
Back in the cave, I took off my python leather gloves. On the palm of my right hand, there was a black spot the size of a soybean.
It's caused by scorpion poison.
"This Ma Tianluo seems to be able to control scorpion poison. This technique is truly superb."
"I feel like he is just a big worm. Or a fat scorpion."
I say it sincerely.
I used a dagger to hit some spots in the middle of the black spots, releasing some of the black blood, and my right hand gradually returned to normal.
Gu Spirit laughed: "He is just the great Gu Master of Qingya, not the most powerful Gu Master. In my memory, there is someone who can put the Gu worm in the palm of his hand and control the Gu worm to spin in circles...ah..."
The words are not finished yet.
The Gu spirit screamed and held his head with both hands, looking very painful.
"What’s wrong with you?"
I hurriedly stepped forward, but there was no ghost scent or medicine like dark wood around me, so I couldn't calm her down.
"Gu spirit, just tell me what you need me to do. Otherwise, I'll give you some blood from my palm. My right hand is poisonous, so I'll cut open my left hand for you."
I said anxiously.
"I'm fine. Whenever I think about the past, I feel uncomfortable. I don't know what's going on... I'll just wait a while and it'll be fine."
Gu Ling was in pain for a quarter of an hour before she recovered. The green skirt had dimmed a lot, obviously her vitality was severely damaged.
"Can't you recall your name, age, and place of origin?"
I asked tentatively.
Gu Ling shook his head helplessly.
I don’t have many opportunities to chat with Gu spirits alone.
At first she wanted to kill me.
When I used the blood ghost technique to reach a blood contract with her, I realized that the ray of her soul about her memory was lost.
She is very mysterious.
At first, I thought she was related to the mantis gu raised by Ma Daya.
That doesn't seem to be the case now.
And, I thought of another possibility.
If you lose that ray of soul about memory and occasionally think of something, you will definitely not have an unbearable headache.
"Gu Spirit, you didn't lose your soul, but someone used magic to seal your memory." I said to the Gu Spirit.
