Chapter 145 The Strongest Heretic Gu

It's Bloodjaw.

Taibu deduced that the Gu worms that are suitable for cultivation in April, one is Xiaorong, and the other is Bloodjaw.

"Brother Han, have you ever heard of Bloodjaw?"

Han Chen nodded and said, "The blood-jawed gnat is an extremely rare type of Gu insect. Among all kinds of Gu insects, it is the highest grade."

"Is Bloodjaw bloodthirsty?"

"Extremely bloodthirsty. To breed bloodjaw gnats, a large amount of human blood is necessary. There is a saying in the Gu sect that five-rank bloodjaws will destroy a village, and third-rank bloodgnaths will destroy a village. To cultivate bloodjaws, blood sac flies are generally used to nourish blood." bag, otherwise the price will be too high.”

Tong Qingqiu knew little about Gu art, and had never heard the name of Xuejaw before: "Can a Gu insect really cultivate to the third rank?"

Han Chen said: "This is the preciousness of Bloodjaw, but although this thing is the strongest Gu worm of the outer way, it is still inferior to the Gu of the inner way."

Tong Qingqiu scratched his scalp: "When Master was alive, he also talked about the inner way and the outer way, but he didn't quite understand what he said. What is the difference between the inner way Gu worm and the outer way Gu worm?"

Han Chen said: "The difference lies in the spirituality of the Gu insect. The Wen spider is a superior internal Dao Gu insect, but it has no spirituality. It can only parasitize on the master, feed on the master's blood energy, and help the master improve his cultivation. Spiritual, with a mind almost indistinguishable from that of a human being."

Tong Qingqiu felt even more puzzled: "The spiritual one is not as good as this non-spiritual one?"

Han Chen smiled: "That depends on the purpose of this Gu worm. Because of the spirituality of the heretical Gu worm, it reserves its cultivation base to itself, and only provides combat power for its master. If the master is seriously injured, or his life is in danger Sometimes, the Gu worms will turn into human figures and escape, looking for another owner. There is no loyalty at all. People who raise Gu, raise outsider Gu worms, they will only be used for their subordinates, and will never be used on themselves, so the value is not as good as the inner way Gu. insect."

Tong Qingqiu heard the words, lowered her head to drink, and stopped talking.

Why does Han Chen know so much about Gu Art?His knowledge of Gu art even surpassed their master.

Xu Zhiqiong took a drink and murmured, "Bloodjaw, that's it..."

Han Chen was surprised: "Brother Xu met Bloodjaw in the capital?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "It's possible."

Han Chen shook his head and said, "Brother Xu must have misjudged him. Bloodjaw is extremely powerful. He is the only Gu worm who can cultivate to the third rank, but he is also extremely disloyal. If he is not careful, he will abandon his master and leave.
The Gu Sect has strict rules, and there are no more than three bloodjaw adults alive. Unless it involves a life-and-death battle, the bloodjaw adults are never allowed to leave the Gu Sect to fight. "

Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "What if we bring the eggs to the capital?"

"This..." Han Chen pondered for a long time and said, "It's not impossible to carry insect eggs, but it's more difficult than obtaining adult insects, and you must have the help of a dead man."

"What did the dead man say?"

"A loyal man who knows he will die, but is loyal," Han Chen explained, "The blood-jawed eggs are born in the cloudy and moony hours, and cannot see the sun. They must be kept in the secret room of the Gu Sect. If you want to send them elsewhere, you must Find a dead man, parasitize the eggs on his body, let this person send the eggs with his flesh and blood, and when the eggs leave his body, the dead man will surely die."

Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment and said: "It doesn't seem to be difficult. Rich people can spend a lot of money to send two servants, but they just keep it from them until it's done."

"I can't hide it!" Han Chen shook his head, "Bloodjaw is very smart. When the shell is not broken, it will remind the master. The master knows that he will die, so he will often flee with the eggs, and the bloodjaw will wait for the opportunity to hatch, thus getting rid of the Gu. door control."

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Then tie the servants away, put Gu seeds on them, and tie them back again."

"No!" Han Chen still shook his head, "The bloodjaw eggs are afraid of being frightened. Once the host is frightened, the eggs will leak toxins, and the host will die instantly, and the eggs will die too."

Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said: "This is difficult, knowing that I will die, is there any reason not to be frightened?"

Han Chen sighed: "This is what makes a dead man so precious! Not only can't be frightened, but he can't even have the slightest grief and indignation. He has to be calm, so that he can deposit the blood-jawed eggs."

Dead man!

Is there any dead man around Liang Yuming?
Xu Zhiqiong rolled up his sleeves, pointed to his arms and said, "If there is a scar like a bug here, does it prove that there are blood-gnawd eggs in the body?"

Han Chen blinked: "As you said, it should not be a scar, but an egg hole. If the size and shape of the egg hole is similar to that of a gnat, it may be the egg hole of the blood jaw, and of course it may be the Gu species of other gnats.

It's just that the possibility of this is very slim, dead soldiers are hard to find. When I was in the southern border, I heard that someone led twenty dead soldiers to steal twenty bloodjaw eggs from Gumen, and tried to bring them to the Central Plains. The twenty eggs were all broken halfway, and none of them survived. After all, these so-called dead soldiers were not loyal enough. "

Is the eighth-rank eunuch who fought against Xu Zhiqiong loyal enough?

Absolutely loyal enough, knowing that his life is not long, but still helping Liang Yuming abduct a civilian girl.

But since Liang Yuming used him to keep the eggs, why didn't he just take care of him?Still let him go out for an adventure?

With a little inference, you can understand the reason.

Leisure brings sorrow, and sorrow brings sorrow.

A person who is about to die cannot be left idle, otherwise no matter how loyal his heart is, he will lament the sadness of fate. Once grief and indignation arise, the egg cannot be kept.

Liang Yuming understands the truth very well, and it seems that this is not the first time he has tried to cultivate blood jaws.

Xu Zhiqiong was contemplating, Tong Qingqiu put down his chopsticks, and asked, "Brother, you are so proficient in Gu art, did you fall into evil ways in southern Xinjiang?"

"Trap you..." Han Chen wanted to scold his mother, but he has a refined temperament, and he can't utter dirty words in front of outsiders, "Stop talking nonsense, when I was practicing medicine in southern Xinjiang, I met patients who were harmed by Gu techniques." Countless, if you don't know the way of Gu art, how can you cure people?"

Xu Zhiqiong said in surprise: "Brother Han has been to southern Xinjiang?"

Han Chen smiled modestly, and Tong Qingqiu said beside him: "Brother Han is a famous doctor in southern Xinjiang. He came to the capital recently to search for an ancient medical scripture. Unexpectedly, he couldn't get away when he came here."

Xu Zhiqiong was taken aback: "Why can't you leave?"

Tong Qingqiu smiled wryly: "He is a Yin-Yang fourth-rank cultivator, how could Tai Bu let him leave the capital?"

According to Tai Bu's concept, all Yin-Yang cultivators in the world should be under the unified management of the Yin-Yang Division. Small fish and shrimps of the eighth and ninth ranks can be let go temporarily, and the big fish of the fourth rank must not escape his palm.

Han Chen said: "I want to make it clear to Tai Bu today, he relies on the strong to bully the weak, I am not good at cultivation, I can't beat him, so I have nothing to say, it is not impossible to work for him in Yin Yang Division, but if He wants to force me to change my school, but it is wishful thinking, Han is not that spineless person!"

Tong Qingqiu dropped her chopsticks: "Who are you scolding?"

Han Chen sneered: "Junior Brother Tong, I can trust you, and I know that you have something to hide, but you have different ways and don't conspire with each other. You don't need to persuade me about this matter."

"Who persuaded you? Go talk to Tai Bu and see if he tolerates you!"

Xu Zhiqiong raised his glass quickly to ease the atmosphere a little after the two words were inconsistent, and immediately checked out and left.

How you brothers fight is your business, I have to tell Wu Xu the news quickly.

……

"Qianhu, when you saw Chen Jiuer draw that scar, you thought it was related to Liang Yuming, but why?"

Wu Xu was watching "Chun Xiang Ji", without raising his head, he said: "You think you are the only one who has met Ren Yazi? I have been secretly investigating for a long time, and I have seen such scars on Ren Yazi more than once. They are all eunuchs under Liang Yuming."

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Can a thousand households know what this is?"

"It should be a Gu worm or something, it looks like a worm."

Xu Zhiqiong said: "If the shape of the scar is similar to that of a gnat, it proves that this person has the eggs of a blood-jawed gnat on his body. Tai Bu mentioned the blood-jawed gnat. This thing can be upgraded to the third rank!"

"Bloodjaw gnat! This is also a Gu worm that can break its shell in April! Liang Yuming, that bastard, really keeps his back!" Wu Xu gritted his teeth and was about to get up, but sat back down again.

After watching "Chunxiang Ji" for a long time, it is inconvenient to stand up.

Sitting behind the desk, Wu Xu recalled all the past, and said to Xu Zhiqiong: "I have seen five people with gnat-like scars on their arms, four were killed by me, and one was still with Liang Yuming, even if this person It is the same person you saw, which also proves that Liang Yuming has at least one bloodjaw gnat in his hand."

Wu Xu brought a map of the capital, and together with Xu Zhiqiong deduced Liang Yuming's intentions.

"What happened last time has been exposed. Liang Yuming's situation is very dangerous. Now he is eager to usurp power. It is reasonable.

But what did he rely on to win the position?It is definitely not enough to rely on a blood jaw alone. Gu worms break their shells in April, and it is impossible to cultivate to the third rank in a short period of time. Even if they reach the third rank, it is not enough to look at in front of the three Canglong elders.
If you want to succeed, you need the help of the Gu Clan, at least four third-rank Gu Clans must be found, three are used to deal with the elders, and one is used to deal with the eunuch Chen Shuncai. How many third-rank Gu clans are there in total?

As far as I know, there is only one third-rank cultivator. You said that this bloodjaw gnat is the only outsider Gu worm that can cultivate to third-rank. There are no more than three adult insects, and there are only four when combined with third-rank cultivators.

Even if all four are collected, the odds of winning are extremely slim.
Among the Canglong Palace and the Imperial Palace, there are still quite a few masters of the fourth rank. Even if the third rank is balanced by two, Liang Yuming must have at least a dozen fourth ranks in his hands to barely cope.
In addition, there are Imperial Guards in the palace, and the Imperial City Division outside the palace. The Yinyang Division and the Penance Workshop will not just sit idly by. soldier. "

Xu Zhiqiong said: "The Ministry of War is under his control, so it is not difficult to mobilize some troops."

Wu Xu nodded: "There may indeed be soldiers and horses near the capital, but these soldiers and horses must have no weapons in their hands, otherwise their whereabouts would have been exposed long ago. The weapons in Yongzhou have not been dispatched for a long time, and I am afraid they were all given outside the capital. The most urgent task is to recover these ordnance!"

Xu Zhiqiong stared at Wu Xu for a long time: "The emperor is about to change, and Qianhu only cares about armaments?"

"Otherwise?" Wu Xu also looked at Xu Zhiqiong, "What can happen to whoever is the emperor? But you can't let Tu Nu trample on innocent people!"

Wu Xu is only for ordnance, so this matter is easy to handle.

He said to Xu Zhiqiong: "Tomorrow, Sui Zhi and I will search the armory together, and then use the spies near the city gate to check the direction of a large number of vehicles and horses. It is not difficult to find this army, and it is not difficult to recover this batch of ordnance." It's not difficult, let Sui Zhi and Zhong Shen handle the rest, if they don't dare to take care of it, I won't bother."

Xu Zhiqiong reminded: "Qianhu, if Liang Yuming really becomes the emperor, your life will be difficult."

Wu Xu smiled and said, "So what can I do when I'm sad? After all, it's just trivial matters."
