Chapter 389: Eating Black Tai Sui (Third Update)

As Chief Wugong approached, the chirping of insects became louder and louder, as if it was ringing in everyone's ears. There was an inexplicable feeling, as if listening to the chirping of insects, one's eyes would be involuntarily attracted to the poison pot.

Gradually, I couldn't move my eyes away, and my attention was all on the voodoo basin. Even my own thoughts seemed to be tied to the voodoo basin.

Among the countless people who stood as dumb as logs, Chief Wu Gong took a deep breath, and his expression gradually became calmer. From the preparations at the beginning, the exploration, the words, and even the horse that could withstand the bite of the Gu insect, The horse has been thought of.

 How can it be easy to get to this point?

He just felt that he was holding the Gu basin, and the closer he got to the mineral vein, the more excited he felt, as if he could feel the excitement of the Gu insects, and as if he was about to approach a great secret.

 “Brother Wu Gong, I’m afraid you didn’t do this properly...”

But in this oppressive silence, a voice suddenly rang out, with a helpless sigh: "Didn't you agree to come and help us, except for that crazy boy of yours? "

As this sound sounded, even the leader of the Wugong clan who was walking forward suddenly slowed down. He turned around and saw the leader of the mine, Zhuang Erchang, standing not far away with a knife in his hand. , and is getting closer little by little.

The others were unable to move and could not resist the buzzing of the insects, but he was the only one who continued to move forward with his ability as a watcher.

It was just visible that it was extremely difficult. The hand holding the knife was trembling slightly. There was faint blood seeping out between the mouth and nose, and he looked a little weak.

“Normally, when the craftsmen in the mine have conflicts with you witches, I always reprimand them first, so that you witches don’t suffer any loss..."

　　　…”

 “I’m just helping.”

The Wugong clan leader actually did not retort, but smiled in a low voice and said: "You Han people have taken enough good things."

 “Among them, you are also included!”

"I was bewitched this time. I first thought about asking your brother to come and remove the poison for me. Unexpectedly, as soon as you received my letter, you started thinking about harming me and wanted to kill everyone in my mine. right?"

"you…"

“Even if you need black Tai Sui for refining Gu, I will cut it off and send it to you.”

The head of the Wugong clan raised his head solemnly and glanced at Zhuang Erchang. His eyes fell on the black blood oozing out of Zhuang Erchang's mouth and nose. He ignored him and said lightly: "When the witch **** comes to the world, he will kill him." Wusong will also help our tribe get rid of all the troubles."

　　　…”

"It's a pity that you only know the good ones, the green ones, the red ones with gold threads, and the white ones. We witches also want to seek some blessings, so we can only get something from your fingers. Take that Black Tai Sui, whom no one wants, comes to refine Gu."

　　　…”

“We have more contact with the things that you least pay attention to, and we can actually hear the call of the Gu God from them...”

Zhuang Erchang seemed to be holding on, so he could get closer little by little. With a wry smile on his face, he said: "I have always been kind to you shamans. I exchanged food for meat, salt, dishes and iron pots. How could I ever lack you?" of?"

As he spoke, he raised his steps again, walked forward slowly, and said slowly: "The Witch God is already looking forward to coming to the world to save us all..."

　　　…”

“The Gu insects are of the same mind as us. If the Gu insects eat the Black Tai Sui, it means that we also eat the Black Tai Sui..."

“Now I am helping Gu God refine his incarnation, just to support his old man...”

 “But who would have thought?”

Zhuang Erchang, the mine manager, listened to his words, but a look of anxiety suddenly flashed across his face, but before he could speak, a stream of smelly black blood had already flowed to his mouth. He stretched out his hand to cover it, and said in a low voice: "Wu Husband, have you taken Black Tai Sui?"

"Brother Wu, your words are really hurtful..."

“Hei Tai Sui cannot eat it. If you eat it, you will go crazy, and even evil spirits will become weird..."

 “You...you are simply...”

　　　…”

He seemed to be trying to persuade him earnestly, and he seemed to be trying his best to stumble forward, trying to stop him with his last remaining strength.

However, no one expected that when he was only about three feet away from the leader of the Wu Gong clan, he suddenly looked hard, the hand covering his mouth suddenly withdrew, and a black light shot out from his backhand.

Those were clearly three iron projectiles. He shot them out with the power of a watchman. They had the power to crack rocks and pierce armor. They instantly hit the face of the Wugong clan leader. At the same time, the body rushed up and drew out the knife in his hand. A flash of light struck the Gu basin in Chief Wu Gong's hand.

Just looking at his movements at this moment, there was no sign of weakness at all. It seemed like the appearance just now was all fake.

This sudden scene made even the leader of the Wugong clan startled. He knew that the leader of the mine, Zhuang Erchang, was bewitched. His injuries before were not fake, and he was able to predict the extent of his injuries and control them. .

 But now I realize that I still underestimated the physique of the old man. Even though all his internal organs were injured, he could suppress the injuries by taking a breath and burst out with such overwhelming strength.

　　It is very dangerous to be close to a person who watches the year. Wu Ya and the people next to him were able to protect him, but when faced with the man's sword blow, neither of them could react and could not stop him in time.

But at this moment, the head of the Wugong clan was facing the projectile that hit his face and the knife that was avoiding the poisonous insect in his hand. He actually didn't move and did not dodge. He suddenly lowered his head and lowered his head towards the poisonous potion in his hand. Said something.

But at the next moment, there was a loud chirping of insects in the Gu basin, causing some kind of evil aura to resonate throughout the valley. The three iron pellets landed on his face, but were suddenly bounced away. I don't know where it fell.

But the knife that struck at him suddenly trembled, and it was about a finger's distance away from the Gu basin, and was blocked by some invisible force. No matter how hard Zhuang Erchang tried his best, he could not fall down.

“I came to your mine to refine Gu, do you think I’m just trying to get some of your Tai Sui flesh and blood?”

Chief Wugong slowly turned his head to look at Zhuang Erchang, and said in a low voice: "Don't you know, insects have territories. I practiced Gu here, so the whole valley is actually mine." What’s the scope of poisoning?”

The expression on Zhuang Erchang's face seemed to be extremely surprised, even frightened. He looked at the Wugong clan leader with wide eyes. Then, his frightened expression suddenly faded away.

He turned into a sneer and said: "Brother Wu, don't you know that this blood mine is originally my territory?"

“I’m not that young steward. Are you really so relieved that you can come in as soon as you say?”

　　　…”

"Um?"

Looking at his appearance, Patriarch Wugong suddenly panicked and realized something was wrong. He hurriedly wanted to whisper something into the Gu basin, but unexpectedly, there was a metallic trembling sound from around him.

This sound is extremely weird. In the whole valley, there was originally only the buzzing sound of Gu insects, and other sounds were suppressed. However, the sound of metal buzzing disrupted the buzzing of insects.

At the same time when the metal trembled, Zhuang Erchang suddenly stepped forward. His body that had just been controlled exploded with astonishing strength, and he grabbed the Gu basin with all his strength. Take it back horizontally.

 “Tsk!”

 But when he touched the Gu basin with his palm, white smoke suddenly rose up. The flesh and blood on his palm melted rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, only the bones were left.

Zhuang Erchang's expression also changed. He let out a sigh, turned his palm from pressing to lifting, and directly slapped the Gu basin into the air. At the same time, he quickly stepped back and saw that the melted palm had spread rapidly up his arm. Swing the knife backhand.

 “Poof!”

His right arm was cut into two pieces, and the section that fell to the ground turned into black bones in an instant.

“Hey, you guys are so powerful, do you really think that we, the year-watchers, are incompetent?”

Zhuang Erchang broke his arm, held down the Gu insect, and then pulled away. With a thought, the blood from the broken arm stopped flowing out.

"you…"

Even the leader of the Wu Gong clan did not expect this move. When he saw the poisonous insects that he regarded as treasures were flying away from his hand, he was shocked and angry, and his eyes became blood red.

He didn't care about anything else, he jumped up hurriedly, stretched out his hands, and wanted to hold the Gu insect in his arms again.

Wu Ya and the pale young man beside him also knew each other very well and rushed forward one after another, seemingly intending to help. Now Zhuang Erchang had no helpers around him, and no one else had reacted. He was obviously no match for the shaman.

 “Whoosh!”

But at this moment, a scene that no one expected appeared. A sound of breaking through the sky suddenly sounded outside the valley. Immediately, a black shadow flashed. The hands that the Wugong clan leader had stretched out were only empty, and the Gu basin was already empty. Gone.

Everyone in the valley was startled by the movement. They turned around and saw that the Gu basin had been penetrated by an arrow and nailed to the ground. The tail feathers of the arrow were trembling.

This Gu refining basin, which has been worshiped by the shamans for more than a hundred years and regarded as a sacred object in the clan, was suddenly destroyed without any warning.

The buzzing sound of the Gu insects inside suddenly disappeared, and there was no movement at all.

The moment the leader of the mine, Zhuang Erchang, saw the arrow, the worry on his face disappeared. He turned towards the mouth of the valley and said with a smile: "Master, I have been delaying this for a long time, and I finally waited until you guys came over..."

Everyone followed his gaze and suddenly saw several horses approaching outside the valley.

Sitting on the leading horse was an old man wearing a brocade robe, a round hat, and a fluttering white beard. He looked very strong. There were several people behind him, some wearing black shorts, and some wearing shorts. They were wearing long robes and had thin beards. Some of them carried large swords on their backs.

The most important thing is that on the horse next to them, there are actually three people dressed as shamans hunched over. However, their hands and feet are tied and their mouths are sealed. They are struggling and whining on the horse's back.

“It’s these witches who have blocked your mines outside and spread poison to harm people.”

The group of people sat directly on their horses and walked into the valley. They threw the witches on horseback to the ground and said, "When we came, we went into the forest to look for them. We found seven and killed four. Three of them were captured alive.”

 “But what charlatan are you talking about, and where is it?”
