Hearing this big brother, I just remembered that it was the voice of a sparrow. I retracted my hand and found that he was a lot fatter than before, but he was not as long as he was, and he looked short and chubby.
I stood up from the snowy ground and helped Sparrow up, and said: "Why are you here?" Sparrow looked surprised and said: "We received a letter saying that the insect king had an accident. We Just come and take a look..."
After Mahjong and I stood up, I found that the man with Mahjong was Ephedra, with a thin body, wearing a white cloak and black clothes, with a long knife hanging around his waist, before he was lying in the snow. Above, the white windbreaker covers it, which is hard to detect.
When Yuyinzi and Chen Yewei came over, I was afraid that Mahuang would be injured, so I hurriedly shouted, "It's my own!"
When Mahuang saw that it was me, he was also very happy, and said, "Xiao Kang, I finally saw you. I'm still thinking that you will come to Chahuadong. I thought you went to Dou Chong Po first?"
I shook my head and said, "No, but Uncle Fatty has been caught by the bad guy. I came here this time to find out if the Insect King was killed, and secondly, to rescue Uncle Fatty."
Ma Huang showed a worried look, and said, "On the night of New Year’s Eve, Qingyadong received a letter from the Flying Dagger, asking everyone to come to Dou Chong Po to see the head of the Chong King. I don’t believe that something happened to the Chong King, so I took it with me. The sparrows are here."
I thought to myself, it seems that on New Year’s Eve, the group of people came on the news of the death of the insect king. Qingyadong and Camellia have always been good friends. Ephedra admires the insect king very much in his heart. Naturally, I don’t believe it, so that’s why. Came here.
I said: "Uncle Ephedra, it is still unclear whether there was an accident with the insect king. The uncle Bai I know is the brother of the insect king. He followed the group of people and only saw the back of the skull, but had not seen the front. , So I’m not sure if something happened to the insect king. Or maybe it’s a bait to lure everyone to Dou Chong Slope!"
Ma Huang thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Who are these people?"
I said, "If I'm not wrong, the former Gu God Colorful People in Qingyadong is one of these people. There are also Luo Dajin and Luo Sihai. But Luo Dajin and Luo Sihai are dead."
Speaking of Qicai people, Ma Huang's face was not very pretty, and said: "This Gu God who was kicked out may eventually return to Qingyadong. Our new village master invites him to come back and help us raise another Qicai Gu. Hey... After the death of the Insect King, this 13th Gu Sect is going to fall into a nightmare again." Ma Huang's eyes reddened, tears streaming from his eye sockets.
It can be seen that he is not crying pretendingly, but truly sad and sad.
I comforted me: "It's still not certain, uncle, don't cry. By the way, why are you in a forest? Didn't you go directly to Dou Chong Po?"
Ma Huang said, "We still don't know what the situation is about this Dou Chong Po. After we got to this neighborhood. We were hiding here for the time being, thinking about waiting for it to get dark, and trying to find out the situation, but I didn't expect to bump into you. "
Sparrow added: "The terrain near this Dou Chong Po is within the sight of Dou Chong Po. We can't get too close. In the forest in front, we found some blood. After identification, people should have left it. Yes, so we proceed with caution!"
I said, "It's a good thing that you are cautious. What happened to the blood that appeared. Has anyone been taken away by the wicked?"
Ma Huang said: "There is a possibility. Of course, it may also be an internal struggle in the Shisandong. Many villages have grievances and feuds. Now everyone thinks that the king of insects is the king of insects. When they meet, there is no binding force. It’s inevitable that there will be a fight... it’s normal to leave blood."
I thought about it again and again, and felt that this possibility is also valid, and said: "Uncle Ma Huang, since we have met together. Then we will be together. In this case, the number of people is greater and the chance of success is much greater."
Ma Huang pondered for a moment and said: "Yes." We walked out from under the big tree. Ephedra pays homage to senior Yuyinzi. Mahjong looked at Yuyinzi and stayed for a while, and it took a while before he could react.
I said: "Uncle Ma Huang, you don't need to go to Dou Chong Po to listen to the news at night, we have already been there. There should be information brought back before dark."
We hid among the rocks again, and the snow that had just been destroyed was also cleaned up again, and there was no trace of walking. We waited quietly for the return of the ghost infant. I was hiding among the rocks and the cold wind hit, and I found that the sparrow was trembling constantly, and his lips were white with cold.
I quietly said to Yuyinzi: "How long will we have to wait? Waiting in the snow. Cold is our worst enemy. We still need to find another cave to hide in. It's better to use fire to keep warm."
Yuyinzi said: "If you light a fire during the day, smoke will rise into the sky. You can see the smoke on the Dou Chong Slope. So you have to wait until the night before you can light a fire to keep warm, so bear with it."
I think so too. During the daytime, the smoke comes out of the cave, spreads in the woods, and rises to the sky. You can see it at a glance on the Dou Chong Slope. I told Sparrow gently, "You will bear with it for a while, and when it gets dark, we will find a place to light a fire to keep warm..." I touched some dried meat, handed it to Sparrow, and asked him to chew and eat a bit. He took two yuan to Chen Ye.
Sparrow said: "Big brother, don't worry, I can hold it, this bit of cold wind can't do anything to me. I'm not a squeamish person." Sparrow gasped, put the jerky in his mouth and chewed. .
I suddenly remembered a question, and asked: "Uncle Ma Huang, why did these people choose to be here in Dou Chong Po? Would you please come to see the head of the Chong King? And not elsewhere?"
Ma Huang explained: "Miaojiang used to have a tradition, that is, each village sent one person to bring the most powerful Gu worm in the village... to Fight Chong Po to fight the Chong. Who is the last winner, who is the new Chong. King. Everyone must follow the call of the Insect King!"
It turns out that Dou Chongpo's name came from this way. This is the first time I heard of it. It is indeed a way in Gu sect to decide the victory or defeat by Gu worms and choose the worm king. Everyone has nothing to say about who has a powerful gu insect and who is the king of insects.
I asked: "Then how many years will this insect king be selected?"
Ma Huang said: "Usually every ten years is a fight against insects, because the breeding of gu insects is a very long cycle, and it is reasonable to set it as ten years. Of course, if the insect king is selected, everyone is convinced and admires him very much. It must be ten years, maybe twenty years. But once the insect king passes away, a new insect king will be selected on Dou Chong Po in the next year."
I nodded: "So it's like this."
Ma Huang said, "Yes. This year, Lord Insect King was named on Dou Chong Po many years ago. Since they have captured the Insect King, they must completely dispel everyone’s respect and worship for the Insect King and choose to be on Dou Chong Po. , Is a very good decision. Think about it, the insect king is here to ascend the position of the insect king, and his head is placed here, the impact is very amazing."
I couldn't help but sucked in a cold breath. It seems that these two people did not randomly choose a place, and they chose Dou Chong Po for a purpose.
Yuyinzi kept looking at the distance, taking his gaze back, and said: "Listen to you, I think their purpose this time should be two. The first is to completely destroy the insect king’s authority in your mind and stand up. Their authority; the second one is to introduce a new insect king. And this new insect king, who will definitely listen to them, is their puppet!"
Ma Huang was stunned for a moment, and gritted his teeth and cursed: "Impossible, I absolutely don't allow this to happen. The insect king of my Miaojiang Gu sect must be an independent insect king, and I can never become anyone's puppet!"
Yuyinzi sneered, and said, "It's up to you to stop them? If they really kill the old insect king, how many chances do you think you have to stop their conspiracy?"
Ma Huang's complexion was embarrassing, and the muscles on his face were irritated. Although Yuyinzi's words were ugly, they were all truthful. Ma Huang said: "Even if I die, I will never allow this to happen. I don't believe... They can control the will of Shisandong..."
Yuyinzi said: "Hold on the determination to die, but there is no need to seek death with one heart. I ask you, if they fight insects, they will win in the end. What can you say... This is the tradition that you have inherited, if they Won, what can you do... Answer me!"
Ma Huang was stunned, his eyes were terrified, and finally gritted his teeth and shouted: "If they really win. And the person who will fight for them is still from Shisandong. Then we can only push him to be the insect king, but... But we also have powerful Gu worms, and we will never let them win."
At the end of the talk, Ephedra obviously has no confidence, and the voice is much weaker.
Yuyinzi glanced at Ephedra, then looked at the sparrow next to him, and said, "You can't do it. But your son must still have some hope. Your name is Ephedra. You are in this state of mind, which should be the psychology of many people. Status. Hey, you are old after all, now the world of young people."
Sparrow blushed, and asked with trepidation, "I... My father raises scorpions very well. I am not as good as him. If my father can't do it, I can't. Sister, you laughed."
Yuyinzi laughed loudly: "You call my sister, Xiaohua, I am older than your grandma's grandmother. You kid, if you say two words, your face will blush. I said you treat your dad really badly. , You are better than your dad, don't doubt my judgment."
Yuyinzi's eyes are very accurate for people to see insects. She could see that there are evil evil insects in my body at a glance. This time I am afraid that there are powerful spiders on Sparrow. I hurriedly said: "Sparrow, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves forward, and the newcomers in the world change for the old. Seniors have spotted your potential..."
