Chapter 16 Controlling Gu insects
Xu Xing did not go to see the mysterious shadow man disappearing. His eyes looked at the starry night sky, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to himself: "Okay, very good! Shadow man, you have successfully aroused my hatred for you!"
When Xu Xing saw the shadow man again, a system message had already appeared in Xu Xing's mind.
"Ding, I detected that a Gu insect was planted in your body. Did you consume 1 experience value for analysis?"
When he received this message, Xu Xing was worried that the shadow man would notice the abnormality, so he did not deal with it for the time being. When the shadow man said "If you fail, you will be punished", Xu Xing was so painful that he could not be distracted from communicating with the system.
At this time, Xu Xing lay on the ground and did not get up immediately. Instead, he connected the system and chose "Yes" for this message.
After counting breaths, Xu Xing saw the desired result.
"Ding, the analysis is successful! The Gu insect in your body is the Xun Position Killing Gu. This Gu insect is simplified and cultivated by the Seven Illusion Seven Killing Gu in the Qiangu Sect of the Southern Xinjiang. It has functions such as transmission, positioning, and illusion. Every day at the noon, it will actively transmit the host message to the mother Gu."
"Ding, because your internal energy cultivation is weak, you cannot drive out this insect by yourself. Will you consume 1 experience point to drive out or control this insect?"
Even though Xu Xing had no idea about the Gu worm, he also knew in his heart that once he drove away the Gu worm, the mysterious shadow man with the mother Gu might immediately notice the abnormality.
Xu Xing's strength is still too weak now and he does not have enough strength to face the mysterious shadow man head-on.
So, when Xu Xing found that there was actually a control option, he immediately chose control.
"Ding, control is successful! You can prevent or allow the Sense Position Killing Gu to transmit messages and positioning to the Mother Gu at any time, and whether it has an illusion effect on you."
With the emergence of this system message, Xu Xing immediately noticed that under the scalp on the back of his head, there was a small insect slightly larger than sesame seeds.
This little bug hooks up part of Xu Xing's hindbrain nerves, which can affect Xu Xing's five senses and make Xu Xing hallucinate.
At this time, Xu Xing had fully understood that tonight, whether it was the mysterious shadow man he saw or the pain that pierced the heart and bones later, it was just the hallucination that the mysterious shadow man used this little insect to make him feel.
However, this illusion is extremely real, so real that it can even make people fall into it and cannot extricate themselves, resulting in madness or death that cannot escape from the illusion. Therefore, the word "kill" is added to its name.
Xu Xing stood up from the ground and whispered to himself: "No wonder the shadow man said that their ears and ears are everywhere. It turned out that they planted a worm on me, so they can observe me secretly every day!"
After thinking about this section, Xu Xing's fear of the shadow man became a little less.
The reason why I was very afraid of it before was that in addition to the strength of the mysterious shadow man himself, there was also the feeling of being monitored by others all the time.
Fear and fear come from the unknown. When Xu Xing broke some unknown, fear and fear were eliminated many.
After patting the dust on his body, Xu Xing came to the inn gate, slapped the door and shouted: "Open the door, it's open!"
A worried voice from the inn shopkeeper came from behind the door: "Little...Little Customer, are you okay?"
Xu Xing said: "I'm fine, open the door!"
The shopkeeper was worried and said, "I just heard someone talking outside. I saw you talking to yourself through the crack in the door. Then suddenly I was like going crazy and scratching my body. Are you really okay? Could it be that I saw a ghost?"
Xu Xing was both angry and funny and said, "I'm really fine! I haven't seen a ghost either! Open the door quickly. If you don't open the door, I'll smash the door!"
The shopkeeper was really afraid that Xu Xing would destroy the door, so he said, "Okay, okay, I'll just open the door!"
After opening the door, he looked up and down with suspicious eyes.
Xu Xing threw out a piece of broken silver and said, "Prepare two sets of clean clothes for me and hot water to deliver them to my room."
After getting the money, the shopkeeper smiled and immediately responded: "Okay, please wait, you will come soon!" After that, he walked a few steps towards the back hall and shouted: "Waiter, waiter! It's almost time to work!"
The waiter's dissatisfied voice came from the back hall: "Shopkeeper, it's midnight, if you don't let someone sleep, why are you doing?"
Although the waiter in the inn was dissatisfied, when Xu Xing went upstairs and returned to the room, he had already seen the waiter come out of the back hall and start working.
After entering the room, Xu Xing had just sat down and received another system message.
"Ding, it was detected that your body contains chronic and highly toxicity. The toxins penetrate from the wound on your shoulder. Please deal with it in time! You can choose to use internal force to detoxify, or you can control the poison toxins."
Xu Xing's face darkened: "That doctor who looks like a scholar has done something in the medicine!"
Immediately activate my internal force and check all parts of my body. Soon, I found that there was a slight feeling of discomfort in my body.
Xu Xing first chose to use his internal force to drive away poison, but found it difficult. His internal strength is still shallow and he cannot easily drive away toxins.
Then, Xu Xing chose to control the Gu insect to swallow toxins. After receiving the order from Xu Xing, the Gu insect seemed very excited and immediately drilled out of Xu Xing's scalp, crawled to the wound on his shoulder, and crawled in.
After a moment, the insect came out and seemed to have become darker.
At this moment, a waiter's voice came from outside the door: "Keep, the hot water you want is here! Can I come in?"
Xu Xing sang: "Oh, send it in!"
The waiter walked in with a bucket of steaming water and poured the water into the bathtub in the next compartment. When he passed by Xu Xing back and forth, he looked at Xu Xing with a strange look.
Xu Xing said, "What are you looking at?"
The waiter smiled and said, "No... nothing! Guest, please wait for a while. The bathtub is a bit big. I have to go a few more trips!"
Xu Xing nodded and replied, "Oh, it's okay, you're just busy!"
After the waiter left the room, Xu Xing vaguely heard the waiter muttering: "I must have met a ghost if I scratched my whole body like that..."
After the waiter filled the bathtub, he brought two clean sets of coarse linen clothes. Xu Xing took off the clothes that had been grabbed by him and jumped into the bathing rush.
After cleaning, Xu Xing asked the waiter to pour out the water from the bathtub, and then sat cross-legged on the bed.
Seeing that there were only 12 experience points left, Xu Xing sighed a little: "The experience points are really not enough!"
At present, experience value can not only quickly improve the level of martial arts, but also has many other uses. Xu Xing needs to reserve some experience value at any time to use it for emergency response in emergencies.
So, after hesitating for a moment, he did not consume his experience value, so he practiced the internal strength of "Kaihejin".
Two hours later, I felt that my internal strength had improved slightly, and seeing that it was getting late, Xu Xing took a rest.
Early the next morning, Xu Xing left the inn and left the mansion. In a sparsely populated forest outside the city, he continued to practice the ninth route of "Eighteenth Route of Chaishan" in the ninth route.
After practicing until noon, Xu Xing took a look at the information and found that he was still 963 points away from proficiency, so that he could reach the level of [Entering the House].
Seeing that the sun was reaching the top of his head, Xu Xing let the control of the insect and let it pass its position out. Then he found a simple noodle shop on the roadside outside the city, ordered a large bowl of plain noodles, and ate it in a big mouthful.
Xu Xing was eating noodles while paying attention to the surrounding situation.
There are pedestrians walking around the noodle shop from time to time. Some will come to the stall to eat noodles, and some will leave after asking a few questions.
Everyone who approached the shop was secretly held in Xu Xing's eyes and quietly remembered his appearance characteristics.
After Xu Xing finished eating a bowl of noodles, he paid eight copper coins. When he was about to leave, the owner of the noodle shop called Xu Xing, took out a note from his arms, handed it over, and said, "Brother, someone asked me to give you this note!"
Xu Xing's eyes suddenly slashed and he said coldly: "Did someone ask you to give this note to me, or do you want to give it to me yourself?"
The owner of the noodle shop was startled by Xu Xing and said, "Of course someone asked me to give it to you! You guy is so weird. I was entrusted by someone to send you a message, but you are so rude!"
Xu Xing didn't care about the words of the pasta shop owner, so he reached out to take the note, but stared at the face of the noodle shop owner. He found that the other party did not look like he was lying, so he changed his smile and said, "Uncle, don't care what I said just now. Can you tell me who is the person who gave you this note?"
The owner of the noodles shop rolled his eyes and said, "Forgot!"
Xu Xing's smile remained unchanged. He took out a small piece of silver and handed it over, without saying much.
The noodle shop owner's eyes lit up, then he took the silver and said, "Oh, I remembered that it was the person who sat there eating noodles before!" He stretched out his fingers and pointed at a position.
Xu Xing looked in the direction pointed by the boss of the dough shop and had already sat back on that position.
Xu Xing passed it in his mind. During the period when he was eating noodles, there were three people sitting in that position:
The first person was a strong man carrying a load. After Xu Xing sat down and ordered the dough, he had already checked out and left.
The second person was a middle-aged man who looked like a occupant. He ordered a bowl of noodles, but only took a few bites and then paid to leave.
The third person was a man with a little messy hair and clothes. This person didn't pay, but ate the bowl of noodles left by the second person.
Xu Xing explained the characteristics of these three people and asked the owner carefully which person gave him the note.
The noodle shop owner said, "It's the third person. The man said he would give you the notes and you would pay for the bowl of noodle!"
Xu Xing recalled the direction where the third person left and immediately rushed out.
The noodle shop owner shouted behind him, "Hey, you haven't paid that bowl of noodles yet!"
Xu Xing turned a deaf ear and ignored him.
He chased after him all the way, and even kept asking the pedestrians on the road. After half an hour, Xu Xing finally caught up with the man with messy hair and clothes.
The man was staggering, walking towards a haystack not far ahead.
When Xu Xing chased him, the man was lying on the soft haystack and pulled a broken hay to pick his teeth.
Xu Xing stood in front of this person and asked in a deep voice: "Is it the note you passed on to me?"
The man looked up lazily, looked at Xu Xing with some impatientness, and said, "What note?"
Xu Xing took out the note given to him by the boss of the shop and stared at the man in front of him.
The man waved his hand very annoyedly and said, "Genggugugugugugu, I don't know any big words, what note should I pass on to you, this little boy?"
A cold light flashed, Xu Xing put the hatchet on the man's neck and asked in a deep voice again: "Did you write this note to me?"
The man's eyes showed a little fear, and he tried to shrink back, shouting, "You...what are you going to do!"
Xu Xing's eyes were cold and he just handed the note in his left hand forward without saying a word.
The man was cut by a hatchet on his neck because of his shrinkage. He immediately did not dare to move more, but he also understood Xu Xing's meaning. He said in a crying voice: "I... I really don't know how to read! I know Big and Small on the gambling table. I can't even write my own name. How could I write any notes for you!"
Xu Xing's heart sank slightly, realizing that he might have been deceived by the boss of the shop. He had the last thoughts in his mind and said, "This note... isn't you really given it to me?"
