Chapter 175 Plague Gu
Then, a deafening bell suddenly rang throughout the clan, and the whole clan was in chaos. Everyone got dressed and ran out in a hurry, looking around in panic.
This bell will only ring when the family encounters a life-or-death matter. This bell has not sounded for countless years.
After everyone heard the bell, their faces changed and their eyes looked nervous.
Soon, figures were running around one after another, and powerful auras were gathering towards the meeting hall. The aura of the Gu King could be vaguely seen.
Seeing these figures, all the Long family Gu cultivators were shocked. What happened even the ancestor of the clan who was not involved in all affairs was alarmed.
They understood that something big must have happened, and it was even related to the life and death of the family. This was destined to be a sleepless night.
After some time.
"Ancestor, we have already checked. There is a problem with the water source. The Black River flowing through Black Rock City is full of these invisible insects."
"It seems that this round is not against my Long family, but against the entire Black Rock City."
"The Black River is a water source that flows through the edge of Black Rock City. Every household in the city drinks the Black River water and manipulates the Black River water. It seems that this person wants to massacre Black Rock City!"
Long Yuanshan's pupils shrank and he said with an ugly expression.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience showed a look of shock, and there was a lot of discussion.
"Who did it? He was so ambitious and wanted to massacre Black Rock City. What a big statement. Black Rock City is the strongest city in the Western Territory and has never been captured by anyone since ancient times. Just because of him?"
"Fortunately, fortunately it was discovered early enough. It is already late at night and there are not many people using water. Otherwise, if everyone waits until tomorrow morning to use water, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Have you informed all the clansmen not to use water?"
"We have been notified and the water source has been cut off. We are preparing to contact the Qian Chamber of Commerce to prepare water transfer from a distance."
"Although the few people who have used the water have been poisoned, because they were discovered in time, the problem should not be serious. They have now been carried to Yao and Dan for treatment."
"Hmph! Our clan was the first to discover it. Otherwise, if we wait until tomorrow morning, no matter how brilliant the medical skills of the Dan family and the Yao family are, it will be useless. They themselves will be too busy to take care of themselves. We have saved the two clans once. No, it's I saved the whole city once. If our clan hadn’t discovered it earlier, Blackstone City would have been destroyed.”
The crowd was talking a lot, and they all looked at the old man on crutches in the center of the crowd.
This is the most powerful and oldest ancestor in the clan. He is very old and has a short lifespan. He is in the late stage of Gu King and is the spiritual pillar of the West Tulong clan.
This is the case in any family. The strongest person may not be in charge, but he must have the greatest say. His words are enough for the whole family to implement without hesitation.
Long Yuan opened his cloudy eyes and looked at Heihe with solemn gaze.
The Black River is wide and turbulent, flowing through Black Rock City and is Black Rock City's only water source.
Although water is common, no one can live without it. Once a city loses its water source, it will sooner or later become a dead city.
The unavailability of the water from the Black River is not only fatal to the Long family, but also to the entire city.
Black Rock City has a population of millions. It is extremely difficult to solve the problem of water shortage for millions of people.
He sighed, looked towards the upper reaches of the Black River, and finally said in an old voice: "The upper reaches of the Black River should be Black Moon City, right?"
Many people who knew the inside story understood what the ancestor meant. The ancestor meant that these bugs came from Black Moon City, and something had happened in Black Moon City.
People who don't know the inside story are confused at this time and don't understand why the ancestor suspected that the bug came from Black Moon City.
You must know that there are cities and villages upstream of Black Moon City, and there are cities and villages upstream. As long as someone is doing tricks in the river, all the cities downstream will suffer. Who knows, Black Moon City will also be affected by the upstream.
Long Yuanshan and his ancestor had the same view. He knew that Black Moon City would definitely encounter major changes in the recent period.
He originally wanted to keep his family out of the matter, but it seemed that things were backfired. The commotion in Black Moon City finally affected his family. He smiled bitterly.
"Ancestor, you are well-informed, but do you know the origin of this insect? Yuanshan is short-sighted and has no understanding of this invisible insect in the water, let alone its origin." Long Yuanshan suddenly asked road.
"I have a guess in my mind, but I can't be 100% sure. But since this is a major crisis related to the life and death of the whole city, I'd better share my guess."
Long Yuan glanced around at the faces of the clan members and finally said solemnly: "Do you know that there are countless kinds of bugs that are so small that they are invisible to the naked eye in this world, and they are everywhere."
"The air we breathe now is full of bugs. When we eat, the bugs in the air will fall into the food and be eaten by us."
"All of us here have these invisible bugs in our bodies, and there are quite a lot of them."
"It's just that these countless tiny insect species are harmless to the human body, so few people can notice them, and even if they notice them, they don't need to pay attention to them."
Hearing this, everyone in the audience was shocked. Many timid people had already covered their mouths and noses, for fear that the bugs in the air would get into their bodies from their mouths and noses, but they heard the ancestor said that this kind of thing already existed in everyone's body. Insects were planted, and there were so many of them that their faces turned pale.
The ancestor's sudden remarks broke their cognition and collapsed everyone's worldview. This was the first time they had heard such remarks.
The air was actually filled with tiny insects that were invisible to the naked eye, and everyone's expression changed when they heard it.
The ancestor was so virtuous and respected, they didn’t believe that the ancestor was joking when he said these things.
Of course, there are still many people who do not believe it and do not believe this ridiculous statement at all.
This kind of thing is so unbelievable to them, it sounds like fantasy, and it is difficult for them to believe this kind of thing.
The world is full of these invisible bugs, and there are so many of them that there is nowhere to hide. This kind of thing is simply scary, and they can't believe it no matter what.
Hearing this, Long Xuan's eyes were thoughtful, and he understood what the ancestor was talking about.
It seems that in this world, all very small creatures are classified as bugs. Bacteria, fungi, and viruses that were called bugs in previous lives are probably collectively called bugs in this world.
It seems that tiny creatures have not been discovered in this world, but they are all classified as insects, and the research is not deep and difficult to study.
Noticing the expressions of all the tribesmen, Long Yuan sighed slightly: "I know many people don't believe it and think I am an old fool talking nonsense, but what I said is all the truth."
"Insect species that cannot be detected with the naked eye are indeed everywhere in this world, and they are everywhere. There are countless species, and they are found in everyone's body."
"It's just that these tiny insect species are harmless to the human body and are difficult to use for refining Gu. They are even harder to find, let alone how to catch them."
"So there are very few people who study Gu insects in this area, but they are definitely not non-existent in this world."
"So far, I only know of one kind of Gu that can control this kind of power, and that is the famous Plague Gu in the Age of Gods."
When Long Yuan said this, his pupils shrank, with a hint of panic, he looked towards the direction of Black Moon City, and slowly said again: "Many people probably don't know what the Plague Demon Gu is. The Plague Demon Gu has already disappeared in the world. In the long river of history.”
"If it hadn't been for an unprecedented plague that broke out in Black Moon City fifty years ago, I might not have thought of the terrifying existence of the Plague Demon Gu."
"According to legend, there were ten forbidden poisons in the Age of Gods. Each of the ten forbidden poisons contains tens of millions of materials. They possess the power to destroy the heaven and the earth. If you get one of them, you will be invincible in the world."
"However, don't look at the exaggeration of the number of materials required to refine Forbidden Gu. Many of the materials are highly overlapping. For example, one of the materials in the Forbidden Gu recipe is a living person, and there are millions of copies, or even thousands. Ten thousand copies.”
"So to refine the forbidden Gu, you have to kill people, and you have to kill a lot of people. Every time you refine the forbidden Gu, you have to sacrifice a city. If you fail to refine the forbidden Gu, you have to continue to sacrifice the city, and continue to sacrifice the city until it becomes a poison."
"Can you imagine how many people would have to die to refine a Forbidden Gu? How many cities would have to be sacrificed? Those are numbers that you can't even imagine."
"What's even more exaggerated is that the people killed when refining the Gu are just the beginning. The transformation method of all forbidden Gu is to kill people. The more transformations there are, the more people will be killed."
"Once the Forbidden Gu transforms into the final stage, it will need to directly kill the people in a domain. I don't know how many billions of humans will die in this way."
"Many people know that there was a dark period in the age of gods. During that period, most of the inheritance was lost, including most of the Gu techniques. Even many historical classics were destroyed on a large scale, resulting in We know very little about ancient things.”
"I tell you, the reason is because of the forbidden poison."
"In the Age of Gods, there was a demonic force called Motian Sect. Each of the ten demons created a powerful forbidden poison."
"They obtained powerful power by killing people as sacrifices to the city. As their power grew, they began to kill more and more people. They often slaughtered the creatures in a domain to strengthen their forbidden poison, which eventually led to A catastrophe that swept the world.”
"During that catastrophe, blood flowed across thousands of miles, leaving empty cities, bones piled up into mountains, and people in many areas were completely slaughtered. Therefore, the inheritance of a place will naturally be cut off and completely disappear in the long river of history."
"In that glorious era when all kinds of arts contended, because of their massacre, spear cultivators became extinct, arrow cultivators became extinct, and the refining methods of famous weapons were lost..."
"Humanity has ushered in a period of mass extinction. It was the darkest age of mankind. I don't know how many powerful professions went extinct in this event, and I don't know how many powerful inheritances were completely lost in the long river of history."
"Under the slaughter of the ten demon kings, corpses were strewn everywhere, and blood flowed into rivers. Many places were dead. Large areas of land were barren and lifeless. Some were just silent and lifeless."
"According to records, more than half of the human race died in this mass extinction event of mankind, and more than half of all methods were lost in this disaster."
"In order to refine the Forbidden Gu, the Demonic Sect committed all kinds of heinous crimes, which made the world angry and people angry, and made the world shake."
"In the end, it aroused public outrage and was annihilated by many forces led by Shen Ting and Tian Ting. The ten demon kings died in that battle that destroyed the world, and all the forbidden poison recipes were destroyed."
"But the Divine Court and the Heavenly Court also paid a heavy price for this. Both sides lost more than 70% of their strength, were disabled, and have not recovered their strength for tens of thousands of years."
"At this point, the ten kinds of poisonous insects developed by the ten great demons have been classified as forbidden poisons. From now on, no one can touch them again. This is the origin of the ten forbidden poisons."
"After the battle, the Divine Court and the Heavenly Court united to issue a decree in heaven and earth. Anyone in heaven and earth will be prohibited from refining forbidden Gu. Anyone who violates the order will be punished by all the strong men in heaven and earth. Strong men from any side will unconditionally participate in the responsibility of slaying demons. "
"This decree has an unlimited duration and no one is allowed to violate it. Those who fear the devil and avoid war will be killed together with the devil."
"Now I have to suspect that Shi Haojun is the one who has cultivated the plague demon Gu, which ranks tenth among the ten forbidden poisons!"
Long Yuan looked stern and said in a solemn tone: "The ability of the Plague Demon Gu can not only create large-scale plagues, but also control all living creatures smaller than itself."
"The domain of the Plague Demon Gu is the field of mutation. Within the domain, all living creatures smaller than the Plague Demon Gu will undergo mutation, mutating from harmless microorganisms into harmful microorganisms."
"As soon as the mutation field is opened, all the invisible bugs in the air will attack the surrounding Gu cultivators, and can easily bite open the spiritual armor on the body surface of high-level Gu cultivators."
"You don't even need to use the bugs in the air. You must know that there are countless bugs in every Gu cultivator's body. Once these bugs mutate in the mutation field, they will change from harmless to the human body to harmful. "
"You can imagine what will happen to the Gu cultivators who are in the mutated field? Either they will be eaten alive by countless bugs rioting in their bodies, or they will use most of their strength to suppress them."
"Everyone's body is fragile and defenseless. Once countless bugs bite into the internal organs, no matter how powerful the Gu cultivator is, he will die miserably."
"Under such circumstances, it's already difficult to live, how can you compete with the master of the Plague Demon Gu?"
"In the face of this terrifying power, the human sea tactic is completely useless to the owner of the Plague Demon Gu. It is easy for him to massacre a city with millions of people. It won't take long. No matter how many people there are, how can it be done? Are there more bugs controlled by the Plague Gu?"
"The Black River is so big and wide. I am afraid that only this plague devil can easily create a terrifying amount of insects that can fill the entire river."
"Except for the Plague Gu, I don't believe there is any power that can do such terrible things!"
"I asked you why Shi Haojun is so powerful that he can easily slaughter an entire city. He is the Plague Refining Demon Gu!" Long Yuan's eyes were filled with anger and he said decisively.
