Xuan Jiu set the cup aside and, without hesitation, tore off the mask on his face and the other human skin mask under the mask in front of his grandfather.
"Jiu Er? It's really you! " The delicate and pretty face under the mask finally confirmed that the strange man in front of her was indeed the granddaughter she hadn't seen for a long time.
Xi Jiu Er sat by her grandfather's side and told the whole story of how she changed her appearance to Wei Guogong. Other than a few things that were difficult to talk about and something that she did not want to think about, she could hide it all.
"Jiu Er, where's the father of the child in your womb?"
"Grandfather, there are some things that Jiu Er does not wish to bring up again. As for the child's father who is in my womb, he is already dead."
The grief that instantly flashed across Xi Jiu Er's face made Wei Guogong stop asking questions and he could only be gently pulled into her embrace. But today, Jiu Er realized that her grandfather was no longer as mighty and strong as before, and her emaciated body made her heart ache uncontrollably.
In the end, people must age and die, but Jiu Er only hoped that the heavens could slow down their pace, so that she would still have the chance to stay by her grandfather's side.
"Good boy, Jiu Er doesn't cry." Wei Guogong was like hohee was when he was young. Whenever Jiu Er cried, she would always be hugged by her arms to comfort her, but today, the children of the past were already about to become mothers.
"Grandfather, Jiu Er didn't cry," Jiu Er laughed and pushed her grandfather's embrace away, then turned her head and thought, suddenly thinking of something, the smile on her face was replaced with nervousness, "Grandfather, you originally learned the art of voodoo, how could you be so easily poisoned?"
Hearing that, the Wei Guogong was startled, then slowly explained the reason to Xi Jiu Er.
So it turned out that when Wei Guogong was young, his master loved to study Gu techniques in the Southern Wilderness and then used the Gu techniques passed down from her sect. When the two were combined, it could be said to be perfect.
In order to prevent this unique skill from going extinct, his master had specially selected Wei Guogong and her senior brother, Yuan Wu, as disciples. Originally, he wanted to teach them all the techniques he had learned, but Wei Guogong was young and arrogant, disdaining such unorthodox methods, and resolutely refused to learn them. No matter how much his master tried to seduce him, it was useless. In the end, she could only give up.
His master had not only taught him all the techniques he had learned, he had even bestowed him the Gu King s which could control the parasite poison. This was so much so that after he had graduated, he could be called an astronomical figure, a person who knew the geography of things, a person who knew the arts of parasites in the middle, and even a person with a profound understanding of yin and yang.
So in the martial arts world, there was still one more, the "Gu God" who could control hundreds of birds and the "Yuan Wu" who could deal with hundreds of bugs. After taking in three disciples in a row, all of them were not easy to deal with.
Her second disciple, Moon Goddess, her beauty was unparalleled in the world, but she had a weird quirk. As for what kind of quirk it was, it was probably only known to those who had died in her hands! The youngest disciple was a woman who looked to be about 1456 years old. Her name was Hook, and this girl's hobby was to eat Gu. It was unknown whether her youth and eternal youth had some relation to this hobby.
Amongst the three of them, Yuan Yu's Gu technique was the most unpredictable, so the other two people also followed his lead
"What does Grandfather mean?" After Xi Jiu Er finished listening, she faintly felt that this time, his grandfather being poisoned must have some sort of relationship with these few people.
"I think the one who indirectly poisoned me this time is that so-called missing Yuan Yu, right?"
"Indirect?"
"Grandfather, I, a youth, may not have tried to cultivate in the art of the voodoo Gu, but I've been around my master for some time. If you want to poison me right under my nose, I can still detect it."
Originally, he was too relaxed and vigilant of Yuan Yu, but now, he had gotten an opening.
As for whether or not the other party did it intentionally, I don't think there is a need to guess. And the girl that they coincidentally met on the Flower Lantern Festival that day, is most likely Yuan Yu's junior sister, Moon Goddess. "
The Wei Guogong then told Xi Jiu Er every single detail about the day Shi Chen Wen met the Courtesan Belle Beauty on the Flower Lantern Festival.
Xi Jiu Er frowned. Just as she was about to think about the scheme behind this woman, Wei Guogong suddenly laughed, "Master definitely didn't expect that after his transformation, his own little disciple would be killed by his disciple with a Gu King."
"Grandfather, what do you mean? Jiu Er just gave her a pill, you know the medicine can kill people, so don't worry. " Jiu Er anxiously pulled her grandfather's arm, and nervously grabbed onto his palm.
Wei Guogong felt the fear in Xi Jiu Er's heart and smiled slightly, the traces of time on her face were even covered with a layer of vicissitudes of life, "Jiu Er, Grandfather knows that your medicine can kill and kill humans, but Grandfather's medicine is a Gu King, there is only one pair in this world that was refined when Grandfather's master was young, so the power of this Gu is extremely strong. Even if you gave Grandfather the medicine, you would only be able to temporarily hypnotize the Gu King that is hidden in my Dantian."
Hearing that, Xi Jiu Er anxiously replied, "The General Shi's alone Gu worm will be killed by the poison in his dantian tonight. Furthermore, the poison is also poison, so why can't he do the same?"
The Wei Guogong was still smiling as she replied: "There is only a pair of Gu King in this world, and the poison in his dantian is merely an ordinary Gu poison, but as you said, since the poison can be dispelled by the medicine, then my grandfather's stomach isn't filled with poison, it's filled with a monster."
"Demon?" Isn't it a Gu? How could it be a Demon again? "
"The Gu are only made from a few dozen insects that eat each other, while the Gu King are made from hundreds of insects that eat all sorts of beasts and birds. It is also refined from the spiritual energy of the moon when it is fully absorbed.
Wei Guogong slowly walked towards Xi Jiu Er. There was no fear in his eyes, as if he was reminiscing about the interesting things that happened when she was young.
"I don't believe Jiu Er. Grandfather, this Gu King must have an answer. Can you tell me?"
There was once when he was young, his master had unintentionally mentioned that if he wanted to cure the poison from this monster, he would need a cup of blood from the host's body. Then, he would need a divine medicine that could cure a person's bones and flesh.
Xi Jiu Er nodded her head at the side, her solemn expression making the Wei Guogong pause for a moment, "Grandfather, don't worry, even if we have to travel to the ends of the earth, I will definitely find the man who raised the demon. Not only will we need a cup of blood, I will also make her try the pain of her heart veins being devoured."
"Grandfather, I know you are worried that he would harm Jiu Er, but don't worry, Jiu Er will definitely have a way to deal with him, you rest up, it's still early, is Jiu Er going to take a look inside the city?"
