Chapter 668 - 668: Power Gu Department
The arrow shot at close range was faster, carrying the force of piercing gold and splitting stone, and shot towards Lina's chest.
"Ding!"
Lina flicked her finger at the arrow head and deflected the arrow lightly.
She looked back at her silly little apprentice, as well as Xu Qian'an and Mu Nanzhi, and was embarrassed and raised her eyebrows and said angrily:
"Looking for a fight!"
The slender legs had amazing explosive power, and she jumped up and kicked the young man who was shooting the arrow away with a roundhouse kick.
Before the other square-faced man drew out the bone knife, she twisted her waist and swung her arms, and her right arm swept out a half circle. With a "slap", she slapped the square-faced man and made him turn twice on the spot, and he fell to the ground with stars in his eyes.
The two young men from the Li Gu tribe were beaten, but they were fine. They stood up quickly, and the young man who was shooting the arrow stared at Lina suspiciously:
"It's really Lina, how come you have become as white as the women in the Central Plains?"
As soon as they fought, they could immediately tell whether they were of the same tribe.
The kick was swift and the slap was sharp, that's for sure.
The square-faced man added:
"And she's fatter."
The climate in southern Xinjiang is hot and the ultraviolet rays are strong. The natives of southern Xinjiang who live here have dark skin, and the women's skin is mostly wheat-colored.
But Lina has been raised in Xu's house for more than half a year, avoiding the destruction of ultraviolet rays. In addition, she secretly ate her aunt's beauty pills, so her skin is white and delicate, which is very different from the two young people of the Gu tribe.
"Don't you recognize my face?" Lina pinched her waist. .
"Maybe it's a disguise!"
The archer retorted, and then snorted twice with pride:
"I was just testing your level. The real Lina can definitely catch my arrow."
Lina choked and was speechless. She turned back to Xu Qian'an and others and said:
"It's okay, it's okay. The people of my Li Gu tribe have always been cautious and smart. They were just testing me."
No, can the people of the Central Plains call out their names? Besides, if it was really a disguise, who would disguise a southern Xinjiang person to look fair-skinned and beautiful? Isn't this a naked show of strength... Xu Qian'an was full of complaints.
Xu Lingyin screamed "Ah~" with fear on her face:
"Fortunately, Master, you are a real southern Xinjiang person."
The young man who was shooting arrows saw the fearful face of the girl from the Central Plains, and said with a proud expression:
"Lina, who are they?"
"She is my apprentice in the Central Plains, and this is my apprentice's elder brother. When I was in the capital, they took care of me."
Lina introduced Xu Qian'an and Xu Lingyin to the two tribesmen, ignoring Mu Nanzhi because she was not familiar with her.
After her introduction, Xu Qian'an also knew the names of the two young Gu people.
The young man who was shooting arrows was called Tulong, with long arms and well-proportioned muscles. He was a natural archer at first glance.
The young man with a square face was called Mu Tou, because he was born with a square face, so his parents named him "Mu Tou".
"Disciple?"
Mu Tou was shocked: "You are the daughter of the clan leader, how can you accept a disciple privately, and the one you accepted is from the Central Plains? The elders will beat you."
Tu Long frowned, and although he did not agree, it can be seen that he was extremely dissatisfied.
The secret techniques of the Gu tribe are not passed on to outsiders. Even among the seven tribes, they are cherished and have sectarian prejudices.
Moreover, accepting a Central Plains girl as a disciple is obviously a violation of the clan rules and a taboo of the Gu tribe.
"I'm not afraid of them. The elders are fourth-grade, and I am also fourth-grade. It's not certain who will beat whom."
Lina snorted coldly: "Which old thing dares to make a move? I will beat them all to death with one punch."
"The clan leader will beat you first!"
Mu Tou said in a serious tone.
......Lina shrank her head and said loudly:
"The disciple I accepted is a genius that is rare in a thousand years. Yes, a genius that has never appeared in the history books."
She tried her best to describe Xu Lingyin with her limited vocabulary.
Mu Tou and Tu Long stopped, looked at the silly little bean, and asked:
"Genius? How many bowls of rice can you eat in one meal?"
Lina snorted:
"Lingyin can eat ten bowls of rice in one meal, not counting vegetables."
Mu Tou and Tu Long looked at each other and were slightly moved:
"It is indeed a rare genius.
"But so what? The clan rules are the clan rules. You are also a genius, but you dare to privately teach the secrets of the Gu clan, and you will be punished. "
Xu Qian'an listened to them chattering in the southern Xinjiang bird language, frowned and asked:
"What are you talking about?"
Lina exhaled and explained:
"They said that I would be severely punished by the elders for privately accepting people from the Central Plains as my disciples. "
"I have heard that the Gu technique of your Nanjiang Gu tribe is not passed on to outsiders, but what are the specific rules?"
After Xu Qian'an finished speaking, he looked at her and waited for explanation.
"Specific rules..." Lina recalled the clan rules and half-said and half-recited:
"If you pass on Gu techniques to slaves without permission, you will be whipped 36,000 times... Well, different tribes have different numbers of whips, and our Li Gu tribe has the most.
"If you pass on Gu techniques to outsiders, especially people from the Central Plains, without permission, it is a capital crime! The master must die, and the apprentice must die too."
Xu Qian'an looked at her silently:
"Why didn't you declare it in advance when you accepted Lingyin as your apprentice?
"Since you know the rules of your own tribe, why did you bring Lingyin to Nanjiang? "
If Lina had just said "forgot", Xu Qian'an swore that he would beat the shit out of her.
Unexpectedly, Lina said confidently:
"In ancient times, the power of the Gu God radiated beyond the Abyss. Our ancestors went through untold hardships and figured out the secret method to use the power of the Gu God. Since then, there have been seven Gu tribes.
"The secret method is the foundation of our Gu tribe."
The power of the Gu God radiates from the Abyss, turning the surrounding creatures into "Gu". Theoretically, anyone can use this power as long as they learn the corresponding secret method.
Therefore, the Gu tribe attaches great importance to the secret technique, and private transmission is a capital crime.
No wonder the ancestors of the Chai family were stuck at the level of Iron Corpse. It seems that they did not learn the subsequent secret techniques......Xu Qian'an said angrily: "You remember it very clearly, but what you do is human?"
Lina was not panicked at all and continued:
"There are nine stages for the maturity of the natal Gu, and each stage corresponds to a grade.
"Whenever the natal Gu is to be promoted to the next stage, it needs to be supplemented by the secret techniques of the clan and the power of the Gu God to develop the natal Gu to the extreme.
"Only the secret techniques, without the power of the Gu God, even if it is forced to advance, the foundation will be unstable, and the combat power is far less than that of the masters of the same level in other systems. That's why I want to bring Lingyin to Nanjiang."
Mu Nanzhi interrupted: "Bring her here to eat the whip?"
A euphemism for sending her to death.

Lina was a little unhappy, "Hey, listen to me, we don't know each other, why interrupt me?"
After retorting to Mu Nanzhi, she continued:
"Of course, passing on secret skills privately is a capital crime, but as long as Lingyin is recognized by the elders and my father and becomes my real apprentice, it will be fine.
"Our Gu clan's masters often go out to find talents, and then bring them back to the clan to undergo tests. If they pass the tests, they will be recognized."
Xu Qian'an immediately understood Lina's plan. She wanted to bring Lingyin back to the clan to undergo tests, so that she could completely become a member of the Li Gu clan, so that she would not have to worry about subsequent promotions.
"But..." Lina changed the subject and said:
"The Gu clan has no precedent of accepting people from the Central Plains as disciples, but there are many war slaves. But I think this is no problem, because Lingyin is a genius that has not been recorded in history books, and my father and the elders will definitely make an exception. "
Why do I not believe it? It sounds unreliable......Xu Qian'an heard Mu Nanzhi sneer and asked:
"Do you Gu tribe have history books?"
"No." Lina replied.
"......" Xu Qian'an thought to himself, I'm going to beat the shit out of her.
Led by two young men from the Li Gu tribe, Mu Tou and Tu Long, they climbed a high slope and arrived at Boshan, where the Li Gu tribe had lived for generations.
Standing on the high slope and looking out, Boshan was like a towering city wall, stretching for hundreds of miles, blocking the entire north.
The clouds and mist loomed in the mountains, revealing a wild and primitive atmosphere.
At the foot of the mountain was a vast plain with dense rivers and fields covered with regulated tracts. It is divided into small squares. Different crops have different colors, and various colors are pieced together into magnificent oil paintings.
In the fields and plains, tiny figures like ants are busy, either casting nets to catch fish or cultivating the fields.
Thatched huts and yellow mud houses are scattered among the mountains and fields, forming large or small buildings.
The scenery is beautiful, like a huge village that is at peace with the world.
Square-faced Mu Mu coughed and said:
"We will send you here, and we have to go back to patrol. "
He spoke in a poor Central Plains Mandarin.
Xu Qian'an had heard that merchants in the south often traded with people in southern Xinjiang, trading in contraband items such as porcelain, tea, silk, salt and iron.
It seems to be true. If the Gu tribe lived in peace, how could people here speak Central Plains Mandarin?
The earth dragon with a bow on his back looked at Lina and made a sincere suggestion:
"Go home and get more sun. Your skin is so white and delicate, it's so ugly. Otherwise, no one would want to marry you."
After saying that, he glanced at Mu Nanzhi.
Look at what I'm doing...... The corners of the princess' mouth twitched, and she felt that she was being implied.
Although her appearance became ordinary, her skin remained delicate and smooth.
After saying goodbye to the earth dragon and the wood, the three people, the fox and the child went down the slope and entered the plain.
Lina greeted the Li Gu people along the way happily:
"Aunt Asang, I'm back."
"Lina? How come you've become an ugly girl! "
"Uncle Heiba, I'm back."
"Lina is back? Is the slave next to you the one you snatched back from the Central Plains?"
"No, it's my friend."
"Silkworm woman, I'm back."
"Is it Lina? Lina is back, grandma's eyesight is not good, please come closer. Let me tell you, at the beginning of the year, grandma wanted to ask the chief for marriage, my grandson hasn't married yet, you two grew up together... Forget it, grandma doesn't think you two are suitable."
Xu Qian'an silently observed the people of the Li Gu tribe. Some of them wore cloth clothes, some wore clothes made of animal skins, and their physiques were taller and stronger than those of the Central Plains. They used manpower instead of livestock to plow the fields.
One of them could drag hundreds of kilograms of fish, and one of them could carry a small boat back and forth.
"There seems to be a little few people..."
After observing, Xu Qian'an gave his evaluation.
"Everyone went out hunting. "Lina said sadly:
"We are poor in southern Xinjiang, not as good as your Central Plains, with so much food. Our people in the Li Gu tribe are busy from morning to night for a bite of food every day, and they are often not full."
Isn't it because you eat too much......Xu Qian'an didn't try to argue. As she crossed the plain, there were more and more houses, and the roads became wider and flatter.
They came to the largest building complex in Boshan, where the senior officials of the Li Gu tribe lived.
Lina's house is at the highest point of the building complex. It is a large courtyard with two entrances.
Beside this large courtyard, there are many thatched houses and loess houses built on the edge. According to Lina, her family's slaves live in them.
"Dad, I'm back..."
Lina shouted loudly, a completely unruly wild girl.
A few seconds later, heavy footsteps came, and the ground shook. A nine-foot-tall man A giant of 100 feet in height walked out of the inner courtyard.
This person wore clothes and robes made of animal skins, linen trousers, barefoot, with a slightly square face, rough features and no refinement.
His eyes were azure blue, and it was hard to tell whether his hair was naturally curly, because there was only a shallow layer covering his scalp, just like a monk who had just started to grow hair after returning to secular life.
His body was as burly as that of a Buddhist Vajra.
Every step he took, the ground would shake slightly, as if it could not bear his weight.
Seeing his daughter who had been reunited after a long absence, Long Tu was stunned for a moment, nodded, and said in a low voice with relief:
"It seems that you have experienced a lot in the Central Plains, which is why there are such earth-shaking changes."
After speaking, he glanced at Xu Qian'an and others, paused at Xu Lingyin, and asked:
"Are these slaves you captured?
"Don't bring the little brats here. They can't do the work, and it's not right to kill them."
"They are not slaves, they are friends I met in the Central Plains." Lina pressed the little kid's head with one hand:
"These are my disciples."
Disciple......Longtu's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the aura of a prehistoric beast enveloped the courtyard.
