Chapter 138: Weird Native Gu
Finished!
Pei Yunqiu was upset when she saw Qi Yu. She woke up and felt that she had been busy for a while and actually forgot the battle between Qianyin of the Tang Dynasty and the female assassin of the Hu people!
Gu Liubai glanced at Qi Yu walking and smiled, "Brother Qi, it seems that his injury has worsened."
"Ahem..."
Qi Yu had originally had a thick face and wanted to say a few words, but his eyes were instantly attracted by the thing in a pottery basin in front of Gu Liubai. For some reason, just glanced at the ball of bloody red thing, a chill surged in his heart and couldn't help but say, "What the hell is this?"
Perhaps it was because Liang Fengning and Gu Liubai were not only respectful to people like Qi Yu, so when he learned that Qi Yu was coming to visit him, he did not put away the worm that Yin Shiniang picked out with his sword.
Hearing Qi Yuan's question, he did not hide it, but said softly: "Today, a Fallen Temple monk came to Youzhou City, and we discovered it when we entered the city. This man claimed to be for the Fallen Temple monk who assassinated you before. His Nanji Temple in the city was blocked by us. This is the natal Gu taken out of his body."
"Another Fallen Contemplation monk? Is this the natal Gu of Fallen Contemplation monk?"
Qi Yu endured the extremely uncomfortable feeling and frowned at the natal Gu.
The natal Gu ball in the pottery basin shrinks as big as a thumb, and is a blood-red ball, like a fresh blood clot, but it will stretch from time to time. At this time, the bright red color on its body will become lighter, but it will become the size of a baby fist. It will turn into an oval shape, with many bumps-like bulges on the surface, but the most eye-catching thing is that it will extend two slightly yellow flesh whiskers.
It doesn't look like a worm, it's just a lump of soft flesh, which is very disgusting.
The feeling that made him feel extremely uncomfortable should come from the qi in his body.
"How come it still lives?"
Qi Yu took a deep breath, and he looked at Gu Liubai and said seriously: "I have seen many files about the monks of the Fallen Confucianism. Without exception, if the monks of the Fallen Confucian died in battle, they would die first, and then the toxins spread. The flesh of the monks of the Fallen Confucian decayed, leaving only residues. In the 32nd year after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, some monks of the Fallen Confucian caused chaos in Chang'an. At that time, the practitioners of the Changsun clan also had a strong interest in this Fallen Confucianism, but they managed to hunt three monks of the Fallen Confucianism. Once the monks of the Fallen Confucianism were controlled, they just took the Fallen Confucianism, and the natal Gu died immediately and rotted in an instant."
Gu Liubai did not hide anything and said calmly, "From the perspective of these fallen memorial monks I have come into contact with, their reaction when facing the enemy is like a monk with higher cultivation to assist in the fight. Their reaction is faster than these fallen memorial monks. Their control over the vitality of fallen memorial monks is also higher than the consciousness of fallen memorial monks. As long as they feel that this fallen memorial monk will die, or will be restrained, they will immediately release some toxins and then rot with their body to die. But their reactions are also limiting. According to the current situation, it seems that as long as they separate them from the fallen memorial monks before they react, it will not have time to commit suicide."
Qi Yu pondered: "It is separated from its original body and cannot use the qi, blood and true qi of the fallen monk. It has no power in itself and cannot even commit suicide?"
"I can't be sure of this."
Gu Liubai looked at the ball of red soft flesh and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Your judgment seems to be reasonable, but who can guarantee whether it has a unique consciousness? So now, in addition to seeing how long it can survive after it leaves its body, I also want to see if there is anything else strange about it. As for the true qi, so far, I can't sense any true qi from its body."
Qi Yu nodded slowly.
The natal Gu of the Depravity View is too evil, so naturally the sooner it is destroyed, the better, but he knew very well that people like Gu Liubai would not give up on exploring because of some possible dangers.
It was only then that he remembered his purpose of coming to find Gu Liubai.
"This thing was specially asked by Qinxiang to give it to you."
Qi Yu took out the oil-wrapped thing and handed it to Gu Liubai, shrugging his shoulders, "She didn't say I could see it, so I didn't see what was inside."
Gu Liubai opened the oil paper bag in front of Qi Yu.
Qi Yu didn't look at it when he came, but it didn't mean he was not curious.
If the things his woman sent here are hidden by him and don't show them, it will be unauthentic.
Before he opened it, he thought it might be a method of practice.
The national master of Dashi is at least an eighth-level monk. It is impossible for him to only collect powerful methods from the Tang Dynasty in recent years.
But after opening it, he was stunned.
There was actually a white mutton fat jade inside.
"Is it..."
Gu Liubai's heart moved, and his fingers touched the thing, and it turned out that it was softer than mutton fat jade. Before he could speak, Pei Yunqiu was already surprised and said, "Is this true dragon fat?"
Qi Yu had never heard of the name of such a thing before. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's the purpose of this?"
"This is a great thing, not even in the Tang Dynasty palace." Pei Yunqi originally looked very happy with Qinxiang, and now his favorability for Qinxiang has increased significantly. "From the Great Sui Dynasty to the present, as far as I know, only one person has used this kind of thing."
Qi became more and more itchy, "Who?"
"Emperor Taizong." Pei Yunqi touched the mutton fat jade-like thing, and then came closer to smell it. It really had a faint oily aroma. "This thing can prolong life if you use it. Practitioners can use it to temper the internal organs. It is precisely because Emperor Taizong used this thing that this thing is named True Dragon Fat."
"Tempering the internal organs?" Qi Yu frowned unconsciously again, "Emperor Taizong's internal organs are extremely tough. Isn't this the effect of Li's own Nine Court Emperor Qi Art?"
Pei Yunqi glanced at him and said, "The Nine Court Emperor Qi Jue does have the method of tempering the meridians and internal organs by revitalizing the veins of the Nine Dragons, but except for Emperor Taizong, the other Li family's direct descendants do not possess such supernatural powers as he does, so my father is very sure that the effect of that piece of real dragon fat accounts for a large part."
"Since Duke Pei is so sure, he must be wrong." Qi Yu nodded.
"I can't make it wrong." Gu Liubai spoke out at this time.
He is even more certain than Pei Yunqiu.
Because both Guo Beixi and his mother told him that this real dragon fat was.
According to his mother, this real dragon fat is actually not a natural thing, but a thing refined by the pre-Qin alchemist.
The method of refining that thing was lost in Qin Dynasty. After all, a group of alchemists at that time were chopped off their heads because they could not refine the magic medicine for immortality.
The emperors of the Sui Dynasty had never obtained such things. I wonder where Emperor Taizong got a piece of it back then.
This thing should have been an isolated product at that time, but now it suddenly appears again?
"Brother Qi, the preciousness of this thing is self-evident, but I'm curious, where did she get this thing." Gu Liubai thought for a while and said, "It's better for me and I to ask her in person."
"You don't need to run away. It's not convenient for you to bring this thing." Qi Yu knew that Gu Liubai must be busy with a monk who caught a fallen temple today, so he turned around and walked out, "Isn't it enough for me to bring her here."
"how?"
Gu Liubai turned around and saw Pei Yunshi's expression was a bit strange.
"I think you have to thank Qi Yu very well." Pei Yunqiu looked at Qi Yu's back, "Our Tang Qianyin seems to have paid a lot."
"That's true." Gu Liubai smiled.
Pei Yun's face turned red undetectably.
She couldn't help but say something in her heart, "Damn it, do you want to give?"
Gu Liubai pretended not to see her little thoughts.
His eyes fell on the insect again.
His brows frowned slightly unconsciously.
The heart vein of the fallen monk named Huang Zhong was severely damaged. Although Lan Yufeng brought him to Chen Tu, Chen Tu didn't dare to take action. He had to take care of him for a few days before he could talk about it after his vitality stabilized.
This Gu insect was stabbed out by Yin Shiniang with one sword. It was obviously under the sword energy of Yin Shiniang, so it must have no time to react at that time.
Because if he had time to react, he would just pull Huang Zhong and die together.
But it suffered from Yin Shiniang's sword energy, and was destroyed by the sword energy, and it was still alive.
If it says that it has no true energy and no special features, how can it do it?
Moreover, in his perception, this Gu worm has not had any major changes in vitality since it was separated from its body, which means that this Gu worm can survive for a long time.
If Huang Zhong had not told lies, the previously killed monk of the Fallen Contemporary Temple should have carried a somewhat special natal Gu with him.
That natal Gu should be able to survive for a long time.
So where is it now?
While Gu Liubai was thinking, the natal Gu in the pottery jar suddenly changed.
It was originally lying quietly in the clay pot, but its body, which was occasionally stretched, suddenly stood up slightly. At the same time, a longer and thicker tentacle suddenly stretched out from its abdomen.
An invisible air flowed on this tentacle, very much like true qi.
He and Pei Yunqiu noticed this change at the same time. At this moment, Li Xizhi's voice sounded outside the door, "The Fifth Prince is coming down. He has urgent matters to see the second lady and Brother Ningxi."
Pei Yunqi and Gu Liubai felt strange in their hearts. Gu Liubai pondered for a moment and said, "Please come here."
As the footsteps of the fifth prince got closer, the natal Gu in the pottery jar became more active, and the surface of its body produced ripples visible to the naked eye due to the invisible air waves.
The ripples kept shaking, making it seem like there were many messy lines floating around its body.
Gu Liubai and Pei Yunqi tacitly did not hide this natal Gu, but just allowed it to be active in the pottery jar.
