The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 944 In The Gu
On the eve of a storm, there must always be a little peace.

"You are waiting for us here. Let's go to the southwest first." Yang Yang can only settle Hutou and the others first, and when he and Bai Ze return from the southwest, they will take care of him and Bai Ze.

"I heard that there is an old Taoist on Qianli Mountain in the southwest. I don't know if that is the purpose of your trip." Hutou heard that Yang Yang was going to the southwest, so he asked tentatively.

"Oh, how do you know?" Yang Yang was very surprised. It seemed that Hutou was familiar with the environment there.

"To be honest, the residents of our own area, later..." Hutou was stopped by Bai Ze before he could finish speaking.

"Later, the old man with the white beard went, robbed your homes, and drove you out." Bai Ze said vividly, "It's so abominable, we must arrest him and question him."

Hutou was stunned for a while, and was speechless to Bai Ze's guess, "This uncle, it's not what you said, we came here voluntarily."

"Voluntary, are there still people who voluntarily give up their homes? Let me tell you, you don't have to speak for them, just tell the truth. I will get your homes back for you." Bai Ze strives to be a hero.

"Oh, don't make trouble with Bai Ze, just listen to him." Yang Yang couldn't bear Bai Ze to make fun of the tiger's head again, so he stopped Bai Ze.

"Yeah, it's like this," Hutou continued after Yang Yang's permission, "Although our place has beautiful mountains and rivers, it's too remote, and our life is inconvenient, especially for the elderly and children who have no spiritual power. Be careful and you will fall off a cliff and die."

"It's really dangerous." Yang Yang sweated for Hutou and his fellow villagers.

"Yes, during the year we lived, more than a dozen old people died in accidents. Some fell off a cliff and died, some were drowned, and some were attacked by ants."

"Why are the ants so powerful? Didn't you fight back?" Bai Ze also became worried.

"Of course there is. It's just that our race is too small after all, and the ant clan is spread all over Qianli Mountain, distributed on more than a dozen mountain peaks. We are no match for them."

"Oh, how did this happen? Then, did you all move out collectively?"

"Basically, we also held a race meeting the day before yesterday. At the meeting, our young fellows were willing to move away. However, the old people love their hometown. They value falling leaves returning to their roots, and they are unwilling to leave."

Yang Yang glanced at Bai Ze, "Just like you, I love home."

Bai Ze was a little disdainful, "Go, you're in love with home! Then what happened next?"

"Later, we decided to give them something to drink, move them out and take them away, but after giving them medicine the day before, they woke up the next morning."

"When I wake up at this time, I will definitely scold you." Yang Yang seemed to understand the old man's thoughts very well.

"It's not bad for the fallen leaves to return to their roots. After a lifetime, there is always the lonely life of risking your life to be in your hometown." Hutou's tone suddenly became tense.

"At this moment, the ants came to attack us again, and each of them has the same body size and has increased dozens of times compared to the original." Hutou said with a throbbing expression, as if those ants had already appeared in front of them. "They opened their mouths wide and bit us when they saw our kind. Many old people were killed by them."

"Can't you beat them?" Bai Ze clenched his fists angrily, wishing he could rush to their homeland.Wipe out those ants.

"Oh, it's just that our group is too small! And they kept rushing towards us. We discussed what to do, whether we should fight to the death with the ant clan."

"No, you have to die." Bai Ze shook his head after hearing what Hutou said, even if he killed one or two, the whole army was wiped out in the end.

"Yes, that's what an old man said at the time." Hutou seemed to see the shadow of the old man from Bai Ze, "When he was young, he was our last patriarch, leading the people to build their own homeland, Qianli Mountain was developed from him to our four generations."

"Since it has been four generations, your race should be very powerful, right? How could you be so easily invaded by the ant tribe?" Yang Yang thought, at least the fourth generation can establish a small kingdom. For foreign invasion, you must have your own The strategy is.

"No, our predecessors taught us not to have aggressive ambitions, but also to believe that the world is peaceful, so we will warmly welcome those who come to us. Some of them have lived there for a long time, and some I left again soon." Hutou showed a smile on his face, he missed those days very much.

"Oh, naive, really naive, you must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others. If you are blindly sincere and have no sense of vigilance, one day you will ask for trouble." Bai Ze's face trembled with his beard.

"You are right, the invasion of the ant clan is our own fault."

"The old man doesn't want to leave, what did you do?" Yang Yang was worried about those old people.

"The old patriarch told me to take the young people and escape. As for these old guys, don't worry about them. Anyway, they will die sooner or later. It's not shameful to die in the mouths of those ants, they are shameful." .”

Hutou repeated the words of the old patriarch, almost choked up in his words, "The old patriarch pushed us away, and the old people were unwilling to leave, and Kun's parents..." Hutou glanced at Langtou beside him, Yang Yang felt that the wolf head must be the "kun" in the tiger head's mouth.

"We have no choice. If we are the only ones who are okay, we can do our best to protect the old people. But, alas, we still have wives and children. We can't watch them die too!"

In order to protect the descendants of the race, and in order to agree to the old man's entrustment, Hutou could only lead the tribe and leave home with his wife and children.

"I saw with my own eyes that a giant ant rushed towards the old patriarch as if spitting out venom. I was about to go back and stop him, but instead of avoiding it, the old patriarch walked towards the giant ant. As a result, he was directly bitten to death by that giant ant."

"Hey, he wants you to stop thinking about saving them. Only in this way can you leave there with your young people wholeheartedly." Bai Ze also felt infinite reverence for the old patriarch.

"Yes, you are right. When the old patriarch fell down, he looked at me. On the one hand, he refused me to rush to save him. On the other hand, he seemed to be smiling, a kind of satisfied smile. Then He just fell down." Hutou crouched on the ground, his eyes already wet with tears.

"It's because you are so happy to be alive! Since he has no complaints and you have escaped, don't be sad, ah!" Yang Yang knelt down to comfort him.

Just when Yang Yang stroked the tiger's head and comforted him.Hu Tou raised his head suddenly, roared at Yang Yang, and stretched out his sharp claws to grab Yang Yang. Yang Yang was caught off guard and had no time to dodge. Hu Tou grabbed his arm, and immediately five long blood marks appeared on Yang Yang's arm.

"Be careful, honored guest." Seeing this situation, Langtou hurriedly pushed Hutou away and pulled Yang Yang back.Seeing the situation, Bai Ze thought it was just Hutou's conspiracy, and immediately beat the dementor drum. As soon as the drum sounded, the monsters led by Hutou immediately covered their ears and dodged. Tiger head himself.

"Bai Ze, stop quickly." Yang Yang endured the pain in his arm, jumped on the Dementor Drum, clasped Bai Ze's arm with both hands, and prevented him from beating the Dementor Drum again.

"Yang Yang, what are you doing? You didn't see him just now. He wants to hurt you. I see through it. What he said before was all a lie. To win our sympathy, and then frame us." Bai Ze wanted to break free and continue Beating the Dementor Drum, just like that, Lang Toukun suddenly rushed over, knelt down in front of Bai Ze, and asked him not to beat the Dementor Drum again.

Seeing Langtou's actions, Bai Ze didn't know what to do.

"I told you all, don't beat the dementor drum, the tiger head must have been confused by something. I saw his eyes just now, which are different from before. The eyes are the windows of the soul. Now his eyes have changed. The mind must be controlled by something."

"Master Qilin, what you said is correct, Yanggu... was poisoned by a wu. This kind of voodoo is native to the Western Regions. It is very strange. As long as you cry when you are sad, you will go crazy and hurt the people around you. So we are not sad, just thinking about the past, the Gu in Yanggu's body took effect, fortunately he has fainted now, if not, he will tear us all to pieces."

"Oh, it's so pitiful, but this Gu is really powerful, and I don't know how to undo his Gu." Yang Yang looked at Hutou who passed out and was called "Yanggu" by Langtoukun. "Well, where do you live, let's send Yang Gu to the residence first, let him have a good rest and recuperate."

Yang Yang felt sorry for the balcony, because it was hard to be poisoned by the 梼杌.After being shocked by Bai Ze's soul-stirring drum twice, he probably spent the rest of his life paralyzed on the bed.

"Okay, okay, we live at a few corners not far from here, let's go, I'll take you to have a look." Kun hurriedly ordered a few little demons to lift up Yanggu, Kun led the way ahead, Yang Yang He walked with the little demons who were carrying Yanggu, and stared into Yanggu's eyes along the way, hoping to see him return to his original appearance.

"Yang Yang, you have the heart of a Bodhisattva, you can save his life, and even save his soul. If you don't stop me, I guess I would have beaten the soul-destroying drum countless times to let him say goodbye to this world." .” Bai Ze was too impatient just now when he was counting down his own evidence.

"Don't talk about it, sometimes, you don't go through anything, you look like a very steady old man, but if you really go through something, you have to hurt yourself and others." Yang Yang saw that he was carrying Yanggu The little demon was a little tired, so he took the initiative to take Yanggu's arm from the little demon, and carried him to continue walking.
