Under One Person: Dressed as Lü Liang, with vests all over

Chapter 155: Gu magic can also reach the sky!

"careful!"

Just as Luo Tiantian screamed in surprise, she saw Chen Duo actually flipping in mid-air and twisting his body nimbly to avoid the attack from the Earth Dragon King.

The next moment, the Earth Dragon King's tail, which was covered with barbs, plunged into the cliff next to Chen Duo. The huge impact caused the surrounding cliffs to shake, and rocks fell down.

Seeing this scene, Luo Tiantian, who was already afraid of heights, became even more frightened.

Seeing that the Earth Dragon King was about to attack again, she moved closer to the cliff, shouting as she moved:

"Mom, why don't you have a second child?"

"I really can't do something like subduing the Earth Dragon King!"

After Luo Tiantian moved to the edge of the cliff, she began to climb down in a hurry, intending to go straight down.

This is almost equivalent to giving up the game.

"Luo Tiantian, you don't want to compete anymore?" asked Elder Wei Yuxiang.

"No more competition, no more competition. Life is more important after all."

Luo Tiantian waved her hands repeatedly. When she walked to Lu Liang's side, there was still fear in her voice. She raised her hand and patted her chest.

"Ugh...that just scared me to death."

After saying that, she looked up in Chen Duo's direction again, her tone full of envy.

"But Xiaoduo is really amazing!"

Lu Liang nodded when he heard that. Of course, among the temporary workers in the company, there was no one who was bad at fighting, including those who committed murder and arson.

……

However, even so, the scene on the cliff still looks very thrilling.

The Earth Dragon King failed to attack again by swinging his tail, so he inserted his tail into the cliff, twisted it with the force, and opened his mouth to bite Chen Duo.

The fishy wind blowing out of its mouth could even be faintly smelled by the people below.

"call--"

The next moment, Chen Duo's body leaned back and forth, and his upper body was completely suspended in the air. His body was almost perpendicular to the cliff, and he was about to fall to the ground.

But just as the onlookers below couldn't help but gasp, Chen Duo flipped over, grabbed the protruding part of the cliff with his hands, and then flipped over and jumped up again.

Moreover, as soon as she stood firm, she immediately raised her foot and kicked the Earth Dragon King. The Earth Dragon King shook his body and pulled his tail out of the cliff.

Its two claws were tightly attached to the cliff, and its eyes were fixed on Chen Duo, as if waiting for an opportunity to move.

At the same time, on the other side of the Earth Dragon King, Zhang Youyou was quietly moving towards the Earth Dragon King.

She held a scimitar in her hand and held her breath.

Now, Chen Duo and the Earth Dragon King are confronting each other, this is her best chance.

As long as she successfully inserted the scimitar into the vital eye of the Earth Dragon King, she would win the game.

"call out--"

However, before Zhang Youyou could get within one meter of the Earth Dragon King, the Earth Dragon King turned his head alertly.

Moreover, it was obviously a little angry about this sneak attack.

Its barbed tail suddenly swung towards Zhang Youyou.

Chen Duo also noticed this scene. She raised her foot and attacked the Earth Dragon King, trying to force it to change the direction of attack.

But the Earth Dragon King would rather take Chen Duo's attack and still attack Zhang Youyou.

"Danger!"

Luo Tiantian shouted again.

Compared to Luo Tiantian's flustered performance, the dark-skinned girl Zhang Youyou performed better, thanks to her experience of collecting herbs and searching for poisonous insects in the mountains since childhood.

But her skills are just crude and seem very immature compared to Chen Duo.

She wanted to imitate Chen Duo's actions, flip in the air to dodge, and then grab the bulge of the cliff to return to her original position.

But she obviously overestimated her reaction ability, and was swept by the Earth Dragon King's tail, and she couldn't hold on at all.

Feeling the obvious sensation of falling, Zhang Youyou's heart was filled with despair for a moment.

The biggest difficulty of this level is the cliff. If you fall down, you will definitely be seriously injured.

Just as Zhang Youyou closed her eyes and prepared to face her failure.

She suddenly felt someone grabbing her hand. She opened her eyes and met Chen Duo's pure gaze.

Chen Duo hardly paused as he suddenly lifted Zhang Youyou up and threw her to the other side of the cliff.

Then, she continued to look at the Earth Dragon King and confronted him.

Zhang Youyou glanced at Chen Duo's back with a complicated look in her eyes.

Then she moved to the side and silently climbed down along the edge.

Lu Liang noticed that after Zhang Youyou came down, there was no provocation on her face. She did not say anything, but just shook her head gently at Zhang Ayun who rushed over. A clear blush could be seen on her dark skin.

……

Now, Chen Duo is the only one left on the cliff.

Seeing this scene, Lu Liang felt relieved.

The winner of this Gu competition must be Chen Duo.

However, he did not call Chen Duo down.

Judging from the attitude of the people in Qinghe Village towards the Earth Dragon King, this Earth Dragon King must be very useful to those who practice witchcraft.

If he could get it, it would definitely be beneficial to Chen Duo's strength improvement.

If you miss this opportunity, the Earth Dragon King may not appear again.

"What on earth is this Earth Dragon King?"

Lu Liang asked Luo Tiantian with a little curiosity.

Luo Tiantian's eyes were reluctant to leave the cliff for a second, so she didn't look at Lu Liang, but just replied casually:

"'Earth Dragon' is another name for earthworms, so the Earth Dragon King is naturally a mutated earthworm."

"I heard this from my mother. She said this Earth Dragon King is unique to the cliffs of Qinghe Village."

"Not only does it grow where the earth's veins are blocked or where evil energy gathers, consuming the foul air beneath the ground, it also absorbs the extreme yang energy of the Great Heat season and the residual power of thunder during thunderstorms, thus producing a special toxin."

"This kind of poison is a very rare material for refining Gu."

"It is said that the three legendary Gu in Qinghe Gu Shu all require the toxins of the Earth Dragon King to be refined."

"I only know of one type, called 'Emperor Gu'. Gu Masters can use it to control the insects and beasts around them, stealing other people's Gu for their own use..."

……

Lu Liang's eyes lit up after hearing these words.

He paid more attention to the battle on the cliff.

At this time, the Earth Dragon King, who had failed many times, became impatient.

When it swung its tail to attack again, the barbs on its tail suddenly shot out, like a volley of sharp arrows, shooting towards Chen Duo from all directions.

Although Chen Duo tried her best to dodge, several cuts were still left on her arms and thighs.

Moreover, while Chen Duo was dodging, the Earth Dragon King attacked again.

It opened its mouth wide again and bit towards Chen Duo's head, while trying to wrap its body around Chen Duo.

Chen Duo suddenly raised his hand and grasped the Earth Dragon King's fangs with his left hand.

The fangs bit down and injured Chen Duo's palm. The wound was almost deep enough to see the bone, and blood kept dripping.

The blood fell into the mouth of the Earth Dragon King. Its eyes were very excited at first, but then it began to become restless.

It wanted to break free from Chen Duo's grip, but found that its teeth were still tightly grasped by Chen Duo.

Just as an aura of fear surged from the Earth Dragon King's body, Chen Duo pulled back with his left hand, suddenly shortening the distance between himself and the Earth Dragon King.

Then, she punched the Earth Dragon King's eyes with her right fist without hesitation.

Eyeballs burst!

The Earth Dragon King's body struggled violently, twitched, and finally slowly calmed down.

"boom!"

Chen Duo directly threw the dying Earth Dragon King down from the cliff, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Then she jumped up lightly.

Everyone present turned their gazes towards Chen Duo, their eyes filled with shock and admiration. "This girl is incredible! No one in the village has caught the Earth Dragon King in years..."

"Yeah, I remember it was Wei Shufen who caught the Earth Dragon King last time."

"The Earth Dragon King that Wei Shufen caught back then was only six feet long. This one must be at least nine feet long."

"At such a young age, not only is his witchcraft powerful, but his skills are also so good. This is too outrageous!"

"Yeah, that's awesome!"

……

Chen Duo seemed to ignore these exclamations. After jumping off the cliff, she walked straight towards Lu Liang.

When she walked in front of Lu Liang, she raised her head and smiled, "I won the competition!"

At this moment, she looked like a girl seeking praise, completely different from the cold and stern girl on the cliff.

"awesome!"

Lu Liang raised his hand and touched Chen Duo's hair, praising her.

Chen Duo suddenly smiled even more happily, and reached out to pull Lu Liang to see the Earth Dragon King.

On the side, Luo Tiantian exaggeratedly shook off the non-existent goose bumps on her body and asked Chen Duo with concern:
"Xiaoduo, is your hand okay?"

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt." Chen Duo said.

"The bones in my palm are almost broken, and it doesn't hurt." Luo Tiantian opened her eyes wide and stuck out her tongue to complain.

She was about to go forward to check on Chen Duo's injuries, but Lu Liang got there first.

Lu Liang's gaze first fell on the wounds on Chen Duo's arms and thighs.

I don’t know if it’s because Chen Duo could only wear tight clothes to prevent the poison from leaking out, which gave her a “rebellious” mentality.

Or maybe it was because the first set of clothes Lu Liang bought for her was a suspender top with shorts, which made her think that this was the correct way to wear it.

Anyway, since then, Chen Duo's favorite dressing style is the combination of a belt and shorts.

At this time, she was dressed in the same way, a sky blue suspender with white shorts, with her arms and thighs exposed, so the wound above was particularly obvious.

Fortunately, these wounds were not serious and had stopped bleeding on their own, leaving only a few red marks on the fair skin.

The most serious injury was Chen Duo's left palm, which was still bleeding.

Seeing this, Lu Liang took out a silver needle from his arms, then held Chen Duo's hand and slowly inserted the tiny silver needle into the Laogong acupoint on her palm.

Of course, acupuncture is just a cover.

Lu Liang's real purpose was to use acupuncture to make his "red hands" work.

The red Qi flowed slowly into Chen Duo's body along the silver needle, and the wound on her palm quickly stopped bleeding.

However, in order not to attract too much attention, Lu Liang only helped Chen Duo stop the bleeding and accelerated the healing of the torn flesh.

He did not remove the resulting scar, leaving it to remain as a blood scab.

But this alone was enough to shock Luo Tiantian.

She looked at Lu Liang in surprise, "Are you also studying medicine?"

"Ah."

Hearing this, Luo Tiantian's eyes lit up, "Can you teach me that move you just made?"

"I can exchange something with you."

"Do you need any Gu?"

"Or, money is also fine. My part-time job salary is quite high..."

In the end, it was Wei Yuxiang's voice that interrupted Luo Tiantian's endless questioning.

"At this point, the three stages of this Gu Competition have all concluded."

"I declare that the final winner of this Gu competition is Liao Duo!"

……

After Wei Yuxiang finished speaking, the voice of the great sorcerer also rang out.

Her eyes turned to Lu Liang and Chen Duo.

"I keep my word, come with me."

Lu Liang once again stepped into the stilt house at the back of the village.

The Great Gu Master sat down on the chair in the middle, and gestured for Lu Liang and the other man to sit on the round chairs below.

Her eyes first turned to Chen Duo.

"Although I don't know which school you learned from, your witchcraft is indeed extraordinary."

Having said this, her voice paused, and then she continued:
"However, my Qinghe Gu technique has been passed down for so many years, so naturally it has its own unique features."

"Qinghe Gu Shu, if practiced to the extreme, can reach the sky."

It was the first time that Lu Liang heard such a statement. His pupils shrank and his eyes widened.

The Great Gu Master continued, "Of course, the corresponding method has been lost."

"But in the past, the ancestors of the Qinghe Miao tribe did achieve this."

At this time, the Great Gu Master shifted his gaze from Chen Duo to Lu Liang and asked:
"Do you know who the original ancestor of the Qinghe Miao tribe was?"

Lu Liang shook his head honestly.

Then, the great sorcerer said a name that Lu Liang had never thought of.

"The ancestor of our Qinghe Miao tribe is Chi You."

"To be precise, he is not only the ancestor of our Qinghe Miao tribe, but also the ancestor of witchcraft."

"You should have heard of the Three Evils of Western Hunan—corpse-driving, poisonous insects, and the Fallen Flower Cave Girl. These are all more or less related to Chi You."

"The rituals used in corpse-driving techniques, such as the talismans and cinnabar suppression, originated from the time of Chi You."

"And the Liu family corpse-carrying cult in western Hunan has always adhered to the sorcery norms left by Chi You: they only carry away those who died in battle or were executed, and not those who died of illness or committed suicide, just like when Chi You led the 'soldiers home.'"

"And our Qinghe Miao tribe was born during Chiyou's war with the Yanhuang tribe."

"At that time, Chi You used witchcraft to create poisonous insects and miasma to fight against the Yellow Emperor's warriors."

"It is said that Chi You once cultivated a highly poisonous substance called 'Jiuli Gu', which he used on the battlefield to attack the enemy's internal organs, causing their defeat. This is also one of the three major poisons of our Qinghe Miao tribe."

Lu Liang pricked up his ears and listened very carefully.

He had heard of the legends of Chi You and Xiangxi before, but he had never connected these legends with the strange sects in Xiangxi.

Now that I think about it, it makes sense.

He looked up at the Great Gu Master and asked, "You just said that when Gu magic is practiced to the extreme, it can reach the sky?"

Upon hearing this question, the wrinkles on the Great Gu Master's face brightened up a bit.

She smiled and said, "Why not?"

"The so-called Gu is the boat of heaven and earth, on which one can cross the sea of ​​darkness."

"Use essence and blood to nourish the Gu, build a 'natal Gu group', let the Gu worms devour the host's distracting thoughts and return pure energy. If you achieve this to the extreme, it will be a heaven-reaching technique."

"Swallow distracting thoughts?" Lu Liang looked thoughtful.

The Great Gu Master continued, "Does this statement sound familiar to you?"

"In Hubei Province, there is a sect that also adheres to this principle."

"Unfortunately, they are almost lost now."

"Quan Xing, Tu Junfang." Lu Liang blurted out.

The Great Gu Master laughed and said, "I've hardly been out these years, so I don't know much about what's going on outside. I don't know the person you're talking about, but the sect I'm talking about uses its own three corpses as weapons."

Lu Liang nodded and added:

"That Tu Junfang, his nickname is 'Corpse Demon'. His ability is to control his own three corpses to fight, and he can also lure out the three corpses of others."

The great sorcerer nodded.

"This is indeed the method of the Three Demon Sects, but their most powerful method is still 'Slashing the Three Corpses'."

"They are severing the three desires of greed, anger, and ignorance, and we are using the poisonous insects to devour these distracting thoughts."

Hearing this, Lu Liang's thoughts raced.

If Wei Shufen had become one of the eight people at that time, would she have figured out this kind of witchcraft that could reach the sky?
