Chapter 27 Cold Pond, Gu Stone (Please read~)
"Er Qing, come out."
When She Quanyi disappeared from sight, Zhou Qing thought silently in his heart.
A palm-sized emerald green caterpillar appeared on Zhou Qing's shoulder.
"Are you sure there's no danger up there?" Zhou Qing asked.
"Puff!" Green Silk Gu said, follow it and don't be afraid.
The next moment, the green-haired Gu swooped out from his shoulder.
"Okay." Zhou Qing nodded.
He followed Qingsi Gu up the hill, and as he walked, he opened the gourd on his left waist and spilled a little black-red liquid from it.
Zhou Qing doesn't have a photographic memory.
Moreover, the fog is diffuse on the mountain and visibility is very low.
It's purely based on memory. If you remember a wrong step, you may reach the bottom of the mountain with just one step.
He just marked the road with venom, and when he went back, the green silk Gu would naturally help him find the right direction.
Once you walk it more often, you will probably be able to memorize this route completely.
Zhou Qing climbed up the gentle slope, revealing a steep stone wall in the mist.
Under the guidance of the green silk Gu, Zhou Qing trotted all the way.
Soon, after passing through the lush vegetation, a cave less than two meters in diameter appeared in front of Zhou Qing's eyes.
The green silk Gu got right in.
Zhou Qing also followed in.
The further you go in, the wider the gaps in the cave become.
But when I walked halfway, there were three forks in the road, left, middle and right.
Qingsi Gu paused for a moment and waited until Zhou Qing arrived, then got into the rightmost fork in the road.
After passing the fork on the far right, Zhou Qing walked nearly a hundred meters, and his eyes suddenly became empty.
He appeared in a huge underground cave.
It was pitch black all around, and the body temperature dropped sharply, as if spring had suddenly entered late autumn.
Zhou Qing opened the fire seal and dispelled the darkness around him.
"Puff!"
Green Silk Gu plunged into the darkness.
Zhou Qing followed him, and what he saw was a deep pool. The turquoise water could not be seen to the bottom, and a slight chill poured out of the deep pool.
"Chi!"
The green silk Gu stood at the edge of the pond, and suddenly spit out silk threads and shot them into the pond.
The next moment, it retracted its silk thread and wrapped it around a bright yellow stone.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing took the stone, looked closer, and his eyes suddenly changed.
"This is."
I saw a thumb-sized green caterpillar-like creature in the middle of the amber-like stone, which was very similar to the green-threaded Gu at the beginning.
[You have obtained a new career advancement material - Gu Stone]
[The Gu insect is dead and cannot be refined. 】
"Puff."
At this time, the green silk Gu on the side said there was still more below.
"Keep looking, I'll give it to you if I find it!" Zhou Qing responded.
"Puff!!"
Upon hearing this, Green Silk Gu became very motivated and spit out silk thread again.
However, a sudden change occurred.
As soon as its silk threads were spit into the deep pool, bubbles began to bubble in the pool.
"thump!"
A strong force struck, and Green Silk Gu was pulled directly into the pool of water.
Zhou Qing's expression changed, and he reached out to fish it out, but was too late to catch the green silk Gu.
After a few breaths, the green silk Gu resurfaced.
Zhou Qing circulated his energy and blood, his palm turned gray, and he reached out to pick it up.
The moment his hand touched the pool, he felt a biting chill.
In such a short period of time, Qingsi Gu's body was covered with frost.
"Puff puff!"
Green Silk Gu shook her somewhat stiff body and immediately complained to Zhou Qing.
"You mean there is a live Gu insect down there? It says this is its territory?!"
Zhou Qing's eyes lit up.
"Pfft——!" Two eyes the size of broad beans protruded from the head of the green silk Gu, and it nodded repeatedly in an anthropomorphic manner.
"this"
This pool of water is so weird that Zhou Qing dare not go down.
"Are you not an opponent?" Zhou Qing asked.
"Pfft" Green Silk Gu was immediately discouraged, saying that it couldn't be beaten down below unless the Gu worm came out.
"Is this thing useful to you?" Zhou Qing took out the Gu stone.
"Puff!" The green silk Gu said it was useful, and there were quite a few of them in the pond.
"What about this pool of water? Is it a wine spring?" Zhou Qing asked again. He smelled his palms stained by the pool of water, and there was a faint pungent smell.
"Puff?" The green silk Gu was a little confused. It felt useful, but it was not used to the coldness of the pool.
"What about that Gu? Is it also a Green Silk Gu like you?"
"Puff!"
Qingsi Gu said that half of the opponent's body was the same as it, and the other half was white. There was no power of blood or toxins in the body, only the pure smell of alcohol.
"Is that so?" Zhou Qing's eyes suddenly changed.
Recent events made him feel that Zhou Xian's acquisition of the Green Silk Gu was no longer an accident.
Even if he was told that the Gu master used the human body to raise Gu, it didn't seem impossible.
"In this case, if there is wine, can it be lured out?"
Zhou Qing asked again in his heart.
"Pfft." Qingsi Gu was a little unsure.
Its memory of being in Zhou Xian's body was already very vague. Before, it basically acted according to instinct. It became much smarter after coming into contact with the Yuhu.
As far as it is concerned, it is not interested in wine now, it only likes the taste of toxins and blood food.
"Well, you ask it if you can discuss it and give us more Gu stones. I'll bring it wine next time." Zhou Qingxin said.
"Puff!" Green Silk Gu said that it was a bit dangerous to go down, and he was ready to pull it with silk thread at any time.
As it spoke, it spit out silk thread, wrapped it around Zhou Qing's gray palm, and jumped into the pool.
After more than ten breaths, the silk thread on Zhou Qing's hand trembled slightly, and he quickly pulled up the green silk Gu.
At this time, a layer of ice had formed on the surface of the green silk Gu. Zhou Qing put it in his arms and covered it for a while before it returned to its temperature.
"Puff!"
Green Silk Gu said that the Gu below was too stupid and not as smart as it, making it difficult to communicate.
Gu Chong said that the Gu Stone could be taken away, but he was not allowed to go near the pond again.
Chi!
The green-threaded Gu spit out silk threads and fished out seven more Gu stones from the cold pool.
It's a pity that all the Gu insects inside are dead.
"No more?!" Zhou Qing saw the green silk Gu stop moving,
"Pfft, pfft, pfft."
When Zhou Qing collected the eight Gu stones, Qingsi Gu said that there were many more down there, but they couldn't reach the deep places, and there was also a corpse down there.
"Corpse?!" Zhou Qing's eyes changed.
Could it be a Gu Master?
"Down here"
Zhou Qing looked at the bottomless pool, helpless.
"Today's harvest is big enough."
Zhou Qing comforted herself.
He emptied the two gourds he had brought with him, filled them with two gourds of water, and then stood up and left very simply.
If we don't go down the mountain, it will get dark.
He would come again if given the chance.
Zhou Qing returned the same way.
When we reached the halfway point, the area originally covered by fog had been covered by miasma.
If an ordinary mountain man inhaled so much miasma, he would fall ill or die on the spot.
Even warriors with strong Qi and blood cannot wait long.
Zhou Qing, however, turned a blind eye and strolled through the miasma area, all the way down the mountain, and returned home.
After locking the silkworm room, he took out eight bright yellow Gu stones and two gourds filled with pond water.

rustle
Shortly after Zhou Qing took out the Gu Stone, some of the golden silkworms that were spinning silk and forming cocoons suddenly moved strangely.
The golden silkworm stopped spinning and crawled out from the checkered cluster.
And the cocoons that had been formed also started to tremble.
"This is."
