Chapter 1217 Statue of God (Rolling around is not as comfortable as biting the tail)

Hearing Duanmu Huai's question, the other party's face suddenly became solemn.

"Who are you? Why are you looking for the Nuwa clan?"

"Oh... Sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet. We are from the Court of Inquiry..."

Duanmu Huai always answered questions and quickly explained the situation to the woman, such as they came from the immortal sect of a foreign country. This time they came to Guibao because someone in their family had damaged their soul and needed treatment. They learned that the Nuwa clan were all old Chinese medicine practitioners who could bring people back to life, so they came from afar to seek medical treatment and so on...

"So that's it."

After listening to Duanmu Huai's explanation, the woman's expression eased a little. She looked at Tomoe Mami and Huan Caiyu carefully and nodded.

"If that's the case, there's no need to look for the Nuwa clan. I have a way."

"Oh? What way?"

"The damaged soul can indeed be repaired, but we Bai Miao have our own way."

As she spoke, the woman took out a box.

"As long as you use the soul Gu, you can repair your soul and restore it to its original state."

"…………………… Gu?"

Duanmu Huai didn't say much, but his "subway, old man, mobile phone" expression said it all.

On the contrary, An stared at the box with curious eyes. After coming to this world, she found many new and interesting things, and it was obvious that this Gu was the same.

"Is this for eating?"

"Of course."

Hearing An's question, the woman nodded, then opened the box, and then everyone saw... a dark, fat, big green caterpillar-like insect lying inside.

"Ah—————!"

Seeing this insect, Huan Caiyu was so scared that she ran behind Mu Geng, and Tomoe Mami was also stiff all over. On the contrary, An stared at the insect with interest and asked.

"So how do you use it?"

"Swallow it."

"Swallow? Isn't it eating?"

"Of course not, you have to swallow it alive, so that the soul insect will live in the body, and then as long as the host feeds according to the diet every day, it can keep itself safe."

"Swallow it?"

"Alive?"

Hearing An's retelling, Huan Caiyu and Tomoe Mami almost fainted. Just looking at this big insect head-on was almost close to their mental limit. Thinking that this insect would live in their bodies and grow with them, the feeling of despair came over them--it could just turn black and become a witch, okay!

"Uh... I appreciate your kindness, but it's a pity that this is not a problem for one or two people..."

Duanmu Huai himself didn't care about the solution, but the biggest problem with this insect poison, like Caiyi's Hundred Flowers Fairy Brew, was that there were not enough of them. There were more than tens of thousands of magical girls in that world... These insects and Hundred Flowers Fairy Brew were not enough.

"So..."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, the woman frowned and sighed silently.

"Well, to be honest... you all came here from afar, I'm afraid you will return empty-handed."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because... the witch queen is no longer here..."

"Huh???"

After the other party's explanation, Duanmu Huai understood the cause and effect. According to the woman, the Miao people believe in Nuwa, and the descendants of Nuwa are not a family as Duanmu Huai thought, but a person!

That's right, there is only one person from generation to generation of Nuwa's descendants, and only girls! Single lineage!

In order to quell the dispute between the White Miao and Black Miao, the previous witch queen married the King of Nanzhao of the Black Miao. As a result, the latter put her in death row because of her identity as a descendant of Nuwa. Later, the water monster resurrected and caused trouble to the world. In order to seal the water monster, the witch queen sacrificed herself to seal it...

"After that, the witch queen died..."

"……………………"

After listening to the explanation of the white Miao woman, Duanmu Huai was numb.

Damn it, is this another wasted trip? !

"This is the situation. At present, the war between our Bai Miao and Hei Miao tribes has started again. This Dali city is not safe. I am sorry that I can't help you. Please leave as soon as possible to avoid being involved in the war."

After saying this, the woman turned around and left with the soldiers, and the others also dispersed. It seemed that everything had returned to calm.

"………………What should we do now?"

At this moment, An Ye had finished explaining to the others, and turned around helplessly to look at Duanmu Huai, who narrowed his eyes.

"I don't believe it's that simple."

"Mr. Knight, what do you mean--the witch queen is not dead?"

"I don't know whether she is dead or not, but I am sure that woman didn't tell the truth. Of course, this is normal, but it doesn't mean that I will listen to her obediently. Moreover, I also sensed a faint breath of divine power in this Dali City."

"Divine power?"

"Yes, if what the woman said is true, I think this should be the breath of the descendants of Nuwa."

Although he is not very proficient in magic, as a god, Duanmu Huai is still a little bit capable in sensing the breath of gods.

"Where is it?"

"I have to look for it... After all, tracking breath is not my specialty... Anyway, let's go around first."

Strictly speaking, there is nothing to see in Dali City. If it is the beautiful Dali City, maybe everyone can enjoy the mountains and rivers like in Suzhou City. However, it has been dry for days, and most people are exhausted, and shops have been closed for a long time. Along the way, everyone only saw how miserable the people here were, and there was no clue.

"By the way, why is it so dry here? Is it some devil's trick?"

Looking at the dry river in the distance, An frowned and looked unhappy. Manalia is a city of water, and the whole city is full of rivers and fountains, so An instinctively dislikes this kind of dry environment.

"Maybe, but it has nothing to do with us... Well, what is that place in front?"

Duanmu Huai didn't care much about this little thing. On the contrary, he staggered to the end of the road and looked at the building in front of him that looked a little magnificent. Seeing Duanmu Huai coming, the Bai Miao guard in charge of the gate hurried over.

"I'm sorry, this is the temple of our Bai Miao people, and outsiders are not allowed to enter."

"Temple?"

Hearing the guard's words, Duanmu Huai's eyes lit up.

"What's inside?"

"This............"

Faced with Duanmu Huai's question, the Bai Miao guard obviously didn't intend to answer, but Duanmu Huai was not completely helpless at this moment. He took off his hood and stared at the Bai Miao guard. The latter looked at the clone in front of him and trembled all of a sudden.

"This, you......"

"Tell me, please? What's in there?"

At this moment, Duanmu Huai stared at the guard and asked again. And this time, the Bai Miao guard seemed to be hypnotized and answered stupidly.

"There is a statue inside..."

"Statue?"

"Yes... In the year when the witch queen passed away, a rare flood occurred in Miaojiang. It rained like a river bursting its banks for a month. At that time, the whole city of Dali became a vast ocean. Many tribesmen took refuge in the mountains. In the flood, someone found this statue and worshipped it on the altar. Strangely enough, the rain stopped soon after that and the flood subsided... From then on, everyone worshipped this statue as the goddess Nuwa, and the altar here was built into a temple for the people of the Bai Miao tribe to come and pay homage... "

"Can I go in and take a look?"

"This... "

"I just want to go in and take a look. Is that okay?"

"... Yes... "

Finally, facing Duanmu Huai's request, the Bai Miao guard nodded, then turned and walked to the other side of the gate. Duanmu Huai also walked directly into the temple. Seeing this scene, An and others hurriedly followed him in.

"Wow......"

Walking into the temple, everyone sighed softly. It was not because of how magnificent the temple was, but because the water in the pool inside the temple was rippling, and the air was full of fresh water vapor, which made people feel refreshed.

"Is there water here?"

"It's obviously dried up outside..."

Looking at the pool water around, the girls were also very confused. They just walked around Dali City and found that there was a lack of water everywhere, whether it was well water or river water, but why was there water only here?

At this time, Cai Yi also spoke in a low voice.

"I can feel that there is a strong water spirit gathering here..."

"Sure enough, I knew there must be a ghost here."

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly.

"Let's go in and take a look."

Under the leadership of Duanmu Huai, the group successfully passed through the temple and came to the altar at the end. Then they saw a stone statue of a woman with a human upper body, a snake lower body, and long hair in the center of the altar.

And seeing this stone statue...

"Ah, Medusa!"

"Isn't this a basilisk?"

Seeing this stone statue, everyone couldn't help but shout out. In fact, the stone statue in front of them was basically the same as the basilisk they had encountered in the Hidden Dragon Cave before, except that the basilisk was a man, and this one was a woman, and it was a stone statue...

"I remember in the legend, Medusa seemed to have seen herself in the mirror, so she turned into stone?"

Tomoe approached Huan Caiyu and whispered, and the latter nodded.

"It seems to be so, could it be that this also turned into a stone statue?"

However, just as they were whispering, Duanmu Huai's voice sounded again.

"This is not a basilisk."

"Huh? Isn't it?"

"Yes, I can feel that there is a breath of divine power in her body... Well, it should be that she has exhausted her strength and turned into what she is now."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai walked up to the altar and came to the side of the stone statue.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the descendant of Nuwa."

"What should we do now?"

"It's very simple."

Duanmu Huai moved his arms.

"She became like this because she exhausted her divine power. As long as she is given enough divine power, she will be resurrected. Next, leave it to me - Moon Prism, powerful transformation!"

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand, and the next moment, a muscular man with a nine-head body wearing a pink and white lace skirt appeared again.

"Woo..."

Seeing the muscular giant in front of them, the girls' faces changed and they turned their heads away. Caiyi looked at Duanmu Huai curiously, without any fear.

"Is this the real body of the benefactor? It's really majestic."

"Aren't you afraid?"

Seeing Caiyi's calm look, An was surprised. After all, the first time she saw Duanmu Huai, she was not afraid at all. Caiyi seemed to be the first one, right?

"Ah, I'm not afraid, because there are many monsters that look like the benefactor, and I'm used to it."

Used to it... Hearing the voices of the two people coming from behind, Duanmu Huai felt as if he was stabbed by someone, but he still concentrated, looked at the stone statue in front of him, and then reached out to press its head.

The other party is also a god... Well, at most a demigod? But it's enough. For Duanmu Huai, as long as he injects a little bit of divine power, he can revive it. As for whether this descendant of Nuwa can help him, that's another matter.

What if she is not?

Then just kill her directly, it's no big deal.

Soon, divine power flowed from Duanmu Huai's body into the stone statue, and the originally empty stone statue gradually emitted a faint white light under the infusion of divine power. Then, cracks appeared on its surface and quickly spread.

"Crack, crack, crack..."

Soon, spider-web-like cracks covered the surface of the stone statue, and the next moment...

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the stone on the surface of the statue was completely blown away, and then, a woman with a snake's tail emerged from it and collapsed to the ground.
