"You don't know?"
Longtu looked at Xu Qi 'an in surprise, "You are only a step away from transcendence, how could you not know the secret of Gu?"
"I am different from you …" Xu Qi 'an did not answer him.
Longtu continued, "Any living creature that directly absorbs the power of the Gu God will become a monster.
"Any living creature that directly absorbs the power of the Gu God will become a monster. The Gu worms and Gu beasts near the Abyss are examples.
"In order to use the power of the Gu God, the ancestors of the Gu Clan paid a huge price and sacrificed many lives to find a way to use the power of the Gu God. This is the origin of the Gu Clan's secret skills and the Vital Gu.
"The Vital Gu can neutralize the pollution of the power of the Gu God, so we can absorb the power of the Gu God without being polluted."
The Vital Gu is like a filter … Xu Qi 'an nodded.
Ba Ji continued, saying,
"The Vital Gu is also a Gu. Why didn't it become crazy like other Gu insects and beasts after absorbing the power of the Gu God? Because it has a stage limit of maturity. "
"When it reaches a bottleneck, it will fall into a deep sleep to eliminate the pollution of the Gu God.
"That is to say, it can't become stronger by absorbing the power of the Gu God like ordinary Gu insects and beasts."
This is more stable and avoids distortion, but it also restricts the growth of cultivation … Xu Qi 'an thought of the Seven Deadly Gu in his body. It can't absorb the power of the Gu God because of this reason.
During the conversation, the Love Poison in Chun Yan's body was removed by Luan Yu, and she regained her consciousness.
She seemed to remember what happened just now, so she didn't dare to look at Xu Qi 'an.
The leaders dispersed, and Xu Qi 'an followed Longtu back to the Strength Gu Clan. They passed through the vast plain and arrived at the foot of Bo Mountain.
It was already dark. Outside the clan leader's courtyard, there was a bonfire and a big pot. Lina squatted beside the pot and cooked meat, surrounded by seven or eight Strength Gu children, who were all under ten years old.
Xu Qi 'an saw his stupid sister. She was sitting beside the pot, waiting for the meat to be cooked, just like the children of the Strength Gu Clan.
That expression, that gaze, and the way he swallowed his saliva were exactly the same as the kids from the Power Gu Division.
It felt like Bell Tone had perfectly integrated into the Power Gu Division … Xu Qi 'an glanced around and found that there were many unfamiliar young men in the tribe. He guessed that they were young tribesmen who had returned from hunting.
"Every time her brother comes back from hunting, Lina likes to take out a portion of the game and cook it for the children in the clan."
Longtu said happily, "She knows how to bestow kindness to others, and she knows how to be the chief better than you. Lina has been smart since she was young."
Xu Qi'an didn't know how to respond, so he kept quiet.
"Lina, where are Nan Zhi and Shirohime?"
He walked to the pot and sniffed it. It didn't smell good.
The surrounding children, including Xu Lingyin, immediately became vigilant, suspecting that he was here to get a piece of the pie.
"In the house."
Lina didn't even raise her head. She was concentrating on cooking the meat, adding spices from time to time.
Xu Qi'an and Longtu bypassed the children and entered the courtyard. In the inner courtyard, a bare-chested young man was waving a steel saber, whistling like the wind.
He was muscular, and when he waved the saber, the muscles on his arms and back undulated, looking extremely masculine.
"Father!"
Seeing Longtu and Xu Qi'an coming in, he immediately stopped waving the saber and greeted them respectfully.
Longtu answered with a "hmm" and introduced him to Xu Qi'an.
"This is my son, Lina's brother, Mo Sang."
Mo Sang was no more than 25 years old. His eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Lina's, so he was quite handsome, but a deep scar on the left side of his face ruined his facial features. His fierce eyes also made him look unruly.
"From the Central Plains, Xu Yinluo."
Longtu introduced Xu Qi'an in a concise and comprehensive manner.
Mo Sang had already learned about Xu Qi'an's feat today from the elders who had returned, so he didn't dare to offend him and saluted respectfully.
"You're welcome. Lina is my good friend, and you're her brother, so you're one of us."
Xu Qi'an nodded and smiled, thinking that Brother Mo Sang was quite normal in appearance, unlike Lina, whose naivety was written all over her face.
Mo Sang immediately said,
"Who's more powerful, Xu Yinluo or Father? I heard that all five chiefs lost to you today.
"My father is definitely no match for you. I can guarantee that."
"I take back what I said just now. No one in the Power Gu Division has an IQ …" Xu Qi'an glanced at Longtu, who was unconvinced and eager to fight. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he found an excuse to get away.
The father and son were talking loudly behind him.
"There are no rules."
"Father, you obviously want to fight with Xu Yinluo, so just do it. Why are you afraid?"
"If you're half as smart as Lina, I'll pass the position of the chief to you."
Xu Qi'an went straight to the inner yard, easily locked onto the room where Mu Nanzi was, and pushed the door open. In the simple but spacious room, Mu Nanzi was wearing a lavender bellyband and white silk pants. She was carefully wiping her arms and neck with a handkerchief in her hand.
Seeing someone barging in, her expression changed dramatically. When she found it was Xu Qi'an, the fear on her face lessened, and her cheeks flushed. She turned around and said angrily,
"Get out, get out …"
Xu Qi'an looked at her back, which was as fair as jade, and swallowed his saliva like Xu Lingyin looking at food.
Creak … He closed the door and waited for a few minutes until Mu Nanzi's voice came from inside.
"Come in."
Xu Qi'an entered the room and glanced around. "It's indeed a little shabby. There's not even a bathtub."
Mu Nanzi nodded reservedly, pretending that she was not embarrassed at all. But she secretly increased the strength of her massage on Shirohime, secretly taking revenge.
The little fox, who was supposed to be on the lookout, ignored Xu Qi'an's approach, and caused her to lose her innocence.
"I ran into some trouble just now …"
Xu Qi'an told her what happened in the Abyss, and sighed.
"I've now figured out Xu Pingfeng's style of doing things. Under one goal, there's always a second goal. If one doesn't work, he'll immediately move on to the second plan. He'll never let his efforts go to waste.
"The next time I run into him, I'll have to be careful."
Mu Nanzi was not interested in fighting and killing. She was just a weak woman who did not dare to kill a chicken. As long as Xu Qi'an did not suffer any losses, everything was fine.
"Later, I'll have to trouble you to help me plant some poisonous plants and fruits. I don't need too many, just give the Poison Gu Division some benefits first."
"It's a pity that I don't have diabetes, or else I'll do it myself …" He added humorously in his heart.
"Okay!"
Mu Nanzi nodded. Ever since she entered Jianghu, she often helped Xu Qi'an plant poisonous plants to satisfy his eccentric hobby.
Xu Qi'an rescued Shirohime from her arms and said angrily,
"It's just a child, don't bully it."
When Shirohime heard that Xu Yinluo was taking care of her, she was very happy and said in a sweet voice, "What's wrong with taking a look?
"What's wrong with taking a look at your body? Sister Ye Ji slept with Xu Yinlou every day in the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
Xu Qi'an expressionlessly pushed Shirohime's head into the basin.
…
At night, the Strength Gu Division held a bonfire party in the square outside the division leader's yard.
The theme was to eat meat, eat meat, and eat meat.
After Lina returned from her trip to the Central Plains, she became the focus of the tribe besides Xu Qi'an.
After three rounds of meat, an elder said loudly,
"Lina, quickly tell us about your thrilling journey in the Central Plains. You went out and came back as a Rank Four, everyone is very curious."
It was worth mentioning that the Strength Gu Division did not have wine, because it needed a lot of food to make wine.
Occasionally, they would exchange food for wine from the other six divisions, which was equivalent to a luxury. Therefore, in the Strength Gu Division, if anyone had a pot of wine in their hand, they could basically walk on the path of no respect to their own family.
Lina, who was happily eating meat, raised her head in confusion.
"Sister Lina, tell us."
"Lina, I heard that the Central Plains is very rich. You went to the Central Plains, became a beautiful girl, and reached Rank Four. You must have had a rich experience."
"Tell us, we can't wait."
Men and women, old and young, cheered.
"Pfft, she had no rich experience, she just freeloaded at my house …" Xu Qi'an almost covered his mouth and laughed out loud.
Lina stood up awkwardly and stammered,
"Well, well, my journey to the Central Plains was of course rich. I fought with the people of the Central Plains, went through hardships, and made a name for myself in Jianghu. In the end, when I arrived at the capital, I concentrated on my cultivation.
"He, he did a lot of things that no one has ever done in the history books for thousands of years."
Her brother Mose asked, "For example?"
Lina was troubled. She rolled her eyes and said loudly, "For example, helping Xu Ningyan kill the High Duke and the Emperor. If you don't believe me, you can ask him. "
Everyone looked at Xu Qi'an.
Killing the High Duke has nothing to do with you, but you did help to kill Yuan Jing … Xu Qi'an did not expose her, but nodded politely.
Lina immediately won the clansmen's applause and cheers.
Lina proudly puffed out her chest and put her hands on her waist.
"Then what's Sister Lina's name in the Central Plains?"
A child asked loudly.
"Fei, Flying Swallow Heroine! Yes, the people of the Central Plains call me Flying Swallow Heroine. "
Lina also responded loudly.
If the Flying Swallow Heroine knew that she had become a Southern Jiang Black Skin, she would come for you with a knife … Xu Qi 'an's face twitched. He saw Xu Lingyin and a few other children sitting together in the crowd. They were clapping loudly and cheering for the "Flying Swallow Heroine".
She was already a child of the Gu Tribe.
The bonfire party ended in laughter. Xu Qi'an did not get enough "flattery", so he cursed the people of the Strength Gu Tribe for being a bunch of vulgar people.
He brought Xu Lingyin back to his room to sleep.
Mu Nanzi went back to her parents' home, the Buddha's Pagoda, because of Shirohime's careless slip of the tongue.
Under his threat, the little boy carefully brushed his teeth, washed his feet, and rolled on the bed comfortably.
"Big Pot, will I be staying here for a long time?"
Xu Lingyin lay on the bed, looking at him with her big black eyes.
"Do you miss your parents?"
Xu Qi'an touched her head.
"Yes."
Xu Lingyin nodded and said, "But not when it's time to eat."
"Do you like it here?"
"Yes! There's endless meat here. "Xu Lingyin waved her arms and said loudly.
Xu Lingyin was born to roam the world. Her peers had cried their hearts out after not seeing their parents for a while … Xu Qi'an covered her with a quilt and smiled.
"Go to sleep."
Xu Lingyin patted the empty space beside her with her chubby little hand. "Big Pot, too."
Soon, the sound of snoring came.
Xu Qi'an covered her with the quilt and blew out the candles. The room was plunged into darkness.
…
Heavenly Gu Tribe.
The candlelight was like a bean. In a slightly dark room, Granny Heavenly Gu sat on the bed and mended clothes.
The candlelight suddenly flickered. Granny Heavenly Gu didn't raise her head and smiled gently.
"There's tea on the table. It's just brewed."
The person who appeared silently by the table picked up the teapot and flipped open the inverted teacup. As he poured the tea, he said,
He said while pouring tea, "Granny, what's the Venomous Seven?"
Granny Heavenly Gu was silent for a while and said slowly,
"About eighty years ago, the power of the Poison God gushed out, and it was several times stronger than today. The old man went to the Extreme Abyss to check the situation. When he came back, he brought back a strange Gu worm.
"It was very weak, but it was born with seven kinds of Gu. But the seven powers were very chaotic and difficult to balance, and it could explode at any time.
"In order to cultivate it, the old man came up with a way to use the Venomous Gu as the cornerstone to carry the other six powers."
The Venomous Seven appeared when the power of the Poison God gushed out … Xu Qi'an frowned.
"Why is it so special?"
Except for the Poison God, no creature could control seven kinds of Gu at the same time. The Venomous Seven was the only exception, which was enough to show that it was unusual.
Granny Heavenly Gu shook her head and said,
"When the power of the Poison God gushed out, besides the appearance of the Venomous Seven, the Confucian Sages's statue cracked at that time. The old man began to think about how to repair the seal, and finally decided to use the fate of Daibun. "
The power of the Poison God gushed out, the appearance of the Venomous Seven, the Confucian Sages's statue cracked … Xu Qi'an's heart skipped a beat, and he felt an inexplicable chill down his spine.
"The Venomous Seven only has instinct, and no independent consciousness. I can confirm this. I hope I am overthinking. Well, even if there is something wrong with the Venomous Seven, I can easily suppress it with my current strength.
"If the Venomous Seven becomes my strongest means one day, it will be dangerous. Fortunately, I am talented in martial arts …"
Thoughts flashed in his mind.
Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Granny Heavenly Gu's wrinkled face showed a kind smile,
"What else do you want to ask?"
Xu Qi'an stopped thinking and replied with a smile,
"Yes!
"Granny, what did the monkey doppelganger see in the Extreme Abyss today? What did it hear? "
Granny Heavenly Gu's smile slowly disappeared, and she sighed,
"How did you know?"
Slurp ~ ~ Xu Qi 'an took a sip of tea and said calmly,
"Since I became a Transcendent, more and more people only remember my unparalleled talent and outstanding achievements, but few people remember how I started my career and how I became famous.
"I didn't expose you in the daytime because it was inconvenient."
