Chapter 7: Gu Village (Part ) He Qing glanced at it casually and continued forward without even stopping. At this moment, two black shadows suddenly pounced towards Lu Li, but before they could even touch the corner of his clothes, they were immediately hit by the wind blades that bounced out from He Qing's body, and fell to the ground with broken legs. He Qing's robe fluttered in the wind. She closed her eyes and sighed, "It's actually a human? What a sin." "..." Lu Li raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at He Qing with some interest in his eyes—— interesting. This woman clearly knew that these shadows were ordinary people, yet she chopped off their legs without batting an eyelid. She could even make this false remorse sound so sincere. How hypocritical. But, it's really interesting. He Qing acted decisively and ruthlessly. The dark shadows that were about to rush forward froze for a moment, and then all retreated back into the house, apparently having received new instructions. He Qing turned around and patted Lu Li on the head, who looked calm, to comfort him: "It's okay, let's go." According to what was written in the book, He Qing quickly found the leader's lair.
It was a dilapidated house built alone in a valley. It was in ruins and covered with cobwebs. There was no grass on the path outside the house, and it was covered with various green mucus. If you look closely, you can see white worms wriggling in the mucus, which is extremely disgusting. He Qing couldn't stand this kind of mollusk. He took the Yeying from Lu Li's arms, closed his eyes and swung it around wildly, creating a hurricane that blew all those disgusting things away. "Cough cough... Who is coming?" An old and hoarse voice came from inside the room, and he kept coughing while speaking. "Yaoguang Sect, He Qing." He Qing announced her name, but out of the corner of her eye she saw Lu Li take a small step behind her, as if trying to avoid her. He Qing thought he was afraid, so he moved in the opposite direction without making a sound, covering Lu Li tightly. In the dilapidated house, the sound of a hard object hitting the ground was heard rhythmically, and an old woman in a tattered cloak, with a hunched back, staggered out with a cane, as if she was injured. “Yaoguang Sect…” the old woman muttered as she slowly approached He Qing and laughed like a bellows: “Hehehe…back then, when the God was sealed, your Yaoguang Sect also made great efforts.” The "God" she mentioned is the devil. Although the Demon God has been sealed for tens of thousands of years, his followers are still countless, and there is an endless stream of disciples applying to join the Demon Sect every year. The old woman in front of me is also one of the devil's followers. He Qing sighed helplessly and said expressionlessly: "That was the business of the first generation leader. It has nothing to do with me." The old woman didn't expect He Qing to pass on the blame so straightforwardly. She was stunned for a long time before she continued, "I don't care how many generations of your sect it is. Anyway, since you have fallen into my hands today, don't even think about walking out of here in one piece." He Qing looked at the old woman's face with deep wrinkles and was speechless for a moment. Privately, He Qing felt some sympathy for this person. This village is the old woman's hometown and also the source of evil. The old woman lost both her parents when she was young and had no relatives. She was quite beautiful when she was young, but the people in the village not only divided up her land, but also used marriage contracts as a trap to destroy her innocence again and again. As time went on, the men in the village simply trapped her in the village, and all of them, from teenagers to men in their forties, had their hands on her.
The old woman hated the people in the village, but was powerless to take revenge, so she chose to eat all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants in an attempt to poison herself to end this miserable life. When she was dying, the old woman was inspired by the devil's consciousness, not only did she save her life, but she also changed her physique, and from then on she was immune to all poisons. At this point, the old woman used her body as a Gu and bred countless Gu worms, turning all the people in the village into Gu people who were conscious but unable to escape control. The novel does not explain how the sealed demon used his divine consciousness to educate her. But as far as the novel chapters that He Qing had read were concerned, this demon god seemed to live forever in the mouths of others. The only person in power in the demon world was a young prince, who was the only other major villain besides the original owner. Maybe there is even no such thing as the devil's inspiration. She was just a poor woman. When her life was hanging by a thread, she became a demon with a strong willpower generated by her unwillingness and resentment, and thus entered the path of evil in her mortal body. The old woman used her body, which had never been trained, as a vessel to cultivate the poison. Although she successfully retaliated against those who had hurt her, she was already at the end of her strength. He Qing sighed with mixed feelings and said, "Are you really not going to consider releasing him?" The old woman smiled sinisterly, waved her cloak, and several colorful snakes flew out from her sleeves. He Qing held the Yiying in his hand and poured spiritual power into it. The tail of the whisk suddenly became as hard as a sword, with red light wrapped all over it. It struck the old woman's weak spot with lightning speed. As the old woman's body was broken into two pieces, countless strange-shaped worms rushed out like smoke and rushed straight towards He Qing. The old woman knew that her mortal body could not compete with cultivators like He Qing, and the poisonous insects in her body that were fed with her own bones and blood were her last resort. The situation was sudden and unclear. Normal people would only have a split second to react. At such a close distance, they would definitely be infected by the poisonous insect. He used his own life to severely injure the leader of the Yaoguang Sect, which was considered as living up to the inspiration of the demon god. However, what shocked the old woman was that the moment He Qing hit her with the magic, he waved his hand and summoned a transparent light screen barrier, which barely blocked the poisonous insects a few inches away. It's like taking precautions in advance... The old woman fell on the ground covered with worms, staring at He Qing with bloodshot eyes, spitting yellow liquid from her mouth, and said unwillingly: "Even so, your only disciple, don't even think about... removing the poison... Hehehe! Hehehe..." She turned her head with great effort, looking at the sky that was about to break dawn, with yellow tears falling from the corners of her eyes, and she muttered intermittently: "My God... will eventually appear in this world... and kill all the evil people in the world..." The old woman is dying, and soon after her death, the poisonous insects that have not yet entered her body will also die, including the mother poisonous insect that is used for detoxification. He Qing looked at a field in the distance, which was the only well-maintained fertile land in the entire village. The mother Gu is hiding there. He Qing said to Lu Li quickly, "Don't get close to her." Then he flew to the field and looked for the mother Gu according to the location described in the novel. Lu Li looked at He Qing in the distance for a while, then slowly walked out of the barrier she had set up. The dying poisonous insects on the ground would instinctively seek out the nearest living organism to parasitize, but when they got close to Lu Li's feet, they would wriggle away, making a "chi chi" sound in the liquid. Lu Li slowly lifted his robe, squatted down beside the old woman's upper body, and said softly, "I know your wish." His tone was extremely gentle. After hearing this, the dying old woman rolled her eyes desperately. After seeing Lu Li's face, her eyes widened as if she had regained consciousness: "God... my God..." (End of this chapter)
