Chapter 68: Go Play With Mud!
Pa Yinan did not try to monopolize Lin Qianshan’s treasure because she knew her own strength was insufficient.
If she rashly entered Lin Qianshan’s residence, she might be bitten to death by the Gu worms inside.
It wasn’t that Pa Yinan was overly cautious, but rather, when she encountered Lin Qianshan in Zhongjia Village, she had already been terrified by his peculiar Gu techniques, knowing that she was no match for him at all.
Perhaps in another ten years, she would grow to be even more formidable than Lin Qianshan, but for now, she was simply not his equal.
Therefore, for this reason, she needed help.
Gu Yu, who could kill Lin Qianshan behind the Bronze Gate, was naturally the ultimate ally, bar none.
Originally, Pa Yinan was still hesitating on how to persuade Gu Yu. She did not expect that… as soon as she mentioned it, Gu Yu happily agreed and even wanted to set off immediately to avoid delaying their return.
In this regard, Pa Yinan always felt like she had lost out…
However, this was the result Pa Yinan had anticipated, so she didn’t say much more. Instead, with the help of her Gu worms, she found Lin Qianshan’s newly changed residence.
It was quite hidden…
After Gu Yu and the others pushed open the door, they saw Gu worms crawling all over the yard. Gu Yu smiled slightly, then tossed a handful of medicinal powder, sending these Gu worms into a sweet slumber.
These crawling Gu worms, if bitten by them, would immediately cause various negative status effects… If it were someone else, there would inevitably be a lot of trouble, but for Gu Yu, it was just a matter of a handful of powder.
If that wasn’t enough, then two handfuls of powder.
In any case, with Gu Yu scattering the powder, the Gu worms in Lin Qianshan’s residence were all pacified, leaving Pa Yinan, who was following behind, in awe, completely unable to imagine that Gu Yu possessed such miraculous abilities.
No wonder Gu Yu didn’t want any Gu worms.
His medicinal powders were even more potent than Gu worms…
Looking at the medicinal powder in Gu Yu’s hand with some apprehension, Pa Yinan actually felt a little fortunate in her heart.
Fortunate that Gu Yu was not from Southern Xinjiang, and that he would eventually return to the capital!
Therefore, no matter how powerful Gu Yu was, or how much of a threat he posed to the Gu masters of Southern Xinjiang, there wouldn’t be too great a problem, as Southern Xinjiang couldn’t keep Gu Yu there.
Only those who grew up in Southern Xinjiang would have an inexplicable attachment to this place, unwilling to leave and go elsewhere.
The Gu arts and Gu worms of Southern Xinjiang were like imprints on their souls, making them inseparable from it their entire lives!
…
“Brother-in-law, can you stop smiling! Ever since we left Southern Xinjiang, your smile has never fallen. Are you that happy?”
“Hmph, you can’t talk about ice to a summer insect! Little kid, go play with mud!”
As they sat in the carriage on the way back to the capital, Gu Yu couldn’t stop smiling like a simpleton next door as he remembered discovering hundreds of Thousand-Year Ice Silkworms in Lin Qianshan’s residence.
With so many Thousand-Year Ice Silkworms, how many Longevity Pills could be made!
He had struck gold.
He had truly struck gold.
Gu Qingheng, sitting beside him, saw his brother-in-law constantly smiling like this and was very curious, wondering who his brother-in-law had ripped off.
Just looking at his brother-in-law’s bright smile, his harvest must have been very substantial!
However, Gu Yu clearly wouldn’t reveal anything easily, especially not in front of his younger brother-in-law, always preferring to keep him guessing.
This made Gu Qingheng want to stomp his feet, constantly rolling his eyes.
This amused Gu Yu, who thought that his younger brother-in-law shouldn’t roll his eyes too much… seeing the speed at which he rolled his eyes was fast and good, clearly practiced on purpose!
“He must have raided someone’s house again, otherwise he wouldn’t be smiling like this! But, Brother-in-law, did that Seven-colored Gu worm really swallow the Dragon Gu?”
Knowing that Gu Yu wouldn’t easily tell him, Gu Qingheng didn’t dwell on the same question for too long. Instead, he directly asked the question he was most curious about.
On the way out of Southern Xinjiang, Gu Qingheng had been pestering Gu Yu to tell him about his experiences behind the Bronze Gate, so he was already well aware of what Gu Yu had gone through.
For Gu Qingheng, the battle between those two Gu worms was something he was very curious about.
Gu Qingheng had not seen the Seven-colored Gu worm before, but he had seen the appearance of the Five-colored Gu worm, thinking that adding two more colors wouldn’t be particularly special.
However, it was truly a pity not to have seen the Dragon Gu, such a special Gu worm, with his own eyes!
“Didn’t I already say it? Nothing special, the Seven-colored Gu worm directly swallowed the Dragon Gu, just like a snake eating, purely by swallowing.”
“Is that all?”
“That’s all.”
“But, just hearing the name ‘Dragon Gu’ makes one feel very impressed! How did the Seven-colored Gu worm swallow it? Did the Dragon Gu not resist?”
Upon hearing Gu Qingheng’s continuous questioning, Gu Yu was momentarily stumped.
At that time, when they arrived at the scene, the Seven-colored Gu worm had already swallowed half of the Dragon Gu, and the dragon formed by the Dragon Gu was also gradually thinning and fading, eventually disappearing.
However, regarding the combat power of the Dragon Gu, Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao had discussed it in private, and both felt that the Dragon Gu’s ability was merely an illusory projection of a dragon, used to intimidate and scare enemies.
Its actual ability was simply that of a weakling.
Now, encountering the Seven-colored Gu worm, which only farted, it was truly a case of a noob fighting a noob, a very fitting description…
Therefore, showmanship was not to be taken lightly.
True substance was the way to go!
“Why do you care so much? It’s dead now, what do you want me to do, conjure up another Dragon Gu for you!”
He glared at Gu Qingheng, who was full of questions, and Gu Yu was quite impressed.
With a little more effort, Gu Qingheng would become a “why a million times why.”
And he would honorably become the search engine…
“Hehe, I know that such an impossible task cannot be done! But I want to see if the Seven-colored Gu worm has successfully transformed! It’s been so many days, yet under the watering with Space Spring Water, there’s not the slightest sign of a breakthrough?”
Gu Qingheng chuckled, immediately changing the subject.
When the transformation of the Seven-colored Gu worm was mentioned, his interest was piqued instantly, and he wished he could see the cocoon of the Seven-colored Gu worm immediately.
Hearing what Gu Qingheng said, Gu Yu shook his head, indicating that there was still no movement from the Seven-colored Gu worm.
Although he checked it every day, the spring water in the large wooden barrel would disappear, but the colorful cocoon remained the same, without any change.
This was only because Gu Yu had plenty of Space Spring Water; otherwise, he would have thrown away this farting bug long ago.
“It will take quite some time for this Seven-colored Gu worm to successfully transform, so don’t worry about it. If Gu worms could get stronger so quickly, why would those Gu masters from Southern Xinjiang be so weak.”
“Brother-in-law, that’s not right. Don’t those Gu masters from Southern Xinjiang have Space Spring Water? So, just wait and see, since you’re idle anyway.”
Afterward, under Gu Qingheng’s expectant gaze, Gu Yu said nothing more and instead flashed into the space.
Since his younger brother-in-law had earnestly requested it, he would magnanimously go and take a look.
Huh?
In a small corner of the space, why was there suddenly light appearing!
