Real game world: I am gifted and I suppress all monsters

Chapter 172: Witch Doctor Selects Apprentice

The witch doctor said: "Master Xuwu is a friend of the Jiuli tribe. It's not that I don't want to save him. At that time, there was Mi Jinyu, but its efficacy was only a legend. No one knew how to use it. Moreover, Master Xuwu was injured too badly. I tried several times but failed. Later, I planned to take him to find the chief of the Dixiong tribe. She is the most experienced person among the Jiuli tribes, but I didn't expect that before we found each other, the Taoist priest..."

There is no need to say more at this point.

Chen Qingzhou saw the sad atmosphere and asked in a low voice: "Master, where is the master buried now? I want to pay my respects to him."

Dao Wuya suppressed his grief and said, "Master has spent his whole life indulging himself in the beauty of nature and traveling around the world. I will follow his instructions before he died and scatter his ashes among the green mountains and rivers."

Chen Qingzhou nodded, put his palms together, and bowed to the surroundings.

Dao Wuya closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly. After a while, he suddenly knelt down and said to the witch doctor ghost woman: "In any case, Wuya thanks you for your help back then."

"Get up, get up."

The witch doctor and ghost woman shook her head and said, "No need to do that, I'm just repaying a favor."

After saying this, he took out a brocade bag from his bosom and said, "This is the last relic of Taoist Master Xu Wu. Let me give it to you."

Dao Wuya was extremely delighted, he never thought that after so many years, his master still had some relics left behind. He took it with both hands respectfully, it felt light in his hand, it should be a letter, he was about to open it and read it.

"Wait a minute!"

The witch doctor ghost woman tried to stop him, saying, "Your master left a will that this item can only be opened when you are at the critical moment of life and death, otherwise you will be in danger of death."

Dao Wuya was totally confused, how could this small treasure bag be so powerful?

"Cough, cough, cough..." After the witch doctor completed the instructions of Taoist Priest Xuwu, she felt as if a huge rock had been lifted from her heart. The energy in her heart was lost and she started coughing again.

Dao Wuya figured out the past that had troubled him for years. Although he got another puzzling mysterious bag, he felt much more relieved. He quickly put the bag close to his body and asked with concern: "Senior, how is your health..."

The witch doctor said, "We witch doctors deal with poisons and medicinal stones all year round, and it is difficult for us to live to the age of 40. I am very lucky to be alive today."

Dao Wuya was somewhat knowledgeable in medicine and had long seen that the witch doctor ghost woman would not have much time left. "Senior, do you have any unfinished business? Wuya is willing to serve you."

The witch doctor ghost woman didn't have time to beat around the bush. "I'm just an old man, all alone. I'm dead. But as the 99th witch doctor of the Jiuli tribe, my lineage will be cut off from now on. I really don't have the face to see my ancestors!"

The two understood that the witch doctor was suffering from the fact that she had no successor.

Dao Wuya asked: "Senior, may I ask what are the requirements for inheriting the mantle of a witch doctor?"

Hearing this, the witch doctor ghost looked at Dao Wuya with a gleam in her eyes, "The position of witch doctor has always been a woman, selected by the previous witch doctor himself. She must have an extremely sensitive spiritual sense, able to sense the heaven and earth, flowers and plants, mountains and rivers, and even demons. It is best if she is a young girl, so that she can be taught from a young age."

Dao Wuya was in some danger. The Jiuli tribe was now at war, and many children under ten were snatched away by the monsters. Where could he find a little girl who met these requirements? Besides, the witch doctor and the ghost woman had no time to teach.

Seeing that the witch doctor's spirit was getting worse and worse, Dao Wuya couldn't bear it. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. He pulled Chen Qingzhou aside and asked in a low voice: "Why are you alone? Where is Xiruo?"

Chen Qingzhou said: "I was afraid there might be danger in here, so I hid her outside."

Dao Wuya said: "It's more dangerous outside, bring her over quickly."

Chen Qingzhou was startled and ran out of the altar.

Dao Wuya turned to the witch doctor and said, "Senior, we just saved a little girl. She is very smart. Her family members were killed by monsters and she has nowhere to go. Can you take a look?"

The witch doctor ghost woman still closed her eyes and rested, "Is that child a member of the Jiuli tribe?"

Dao Wuya choked, "Maybe not. Why, must the descendant of the witch doctor be a member of the Jiuli tribe?"

The witch doctor hesitated for a moment and said, "Not really. Well, let's wait and see."

Dao Wuya nodded, but he felt uneasy in his heart, wondering what would happen when Chen Qingzhou found out.

After a while, two figures, one big and one small, walked over quickly.

Xiao Xiruo followed Chen Qingzhou timidly, letting him hold her hand. When she saw the countless horrible demon corpses hanging on both sides of the altar, she screamed in fear.

Chen Qingzhou quickly hugged her and comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay, big brother and Uncle Chopsticks are here, don't be afraid..."

Dao Wuya's face became even more embarrassed after hearing this, and he said to the witch doctor, "Please wait a moment, senior. I will go and explain."

He pulled Chen Qingzhou aside and said, "Let me ask you, how are you going to deal with Xi Ruo?"

Chen Qingzhou reacted immediately after hearing this, staring at me and yelling, "Don't even think about it!"

Chen Qingzhou was so angry that he almost hit someone. Although he had only known Xiruo for a short time, after the tough battle with the snake demon, he felt that Xiruo was very similar to his sister Keke and was his own relative.

Xi Ruo, who was not far away, was startled by the voice, and felt uncomfortable being stared at by the ugly witch doctor. She rushed towards Chen Qingzhou and cried, "Big brother, I'm afraid..."

Chen Qingzhou glared at Dao Wuya, then turned to Xiruo and smiled, "It's okay, Xiruo, don't be afraid. Wait for a while. Big brother has something to say to Uncle Chopsticks."

Xiruo nodded cautiously and slowly moved to the side.

Chen Qingzhou turned around and continued to stare at Dao Wuya.

Dao Wuya sighed and whispered, "Her whole family is dead, so handing her over to the witch doctor and ghost woman can be considered a final resting place for her!"

Chen Qingzhou pointed at the eerie altar and the many demon corpses hanging on the wall. "Look at the witch doctor's appearance. Is this what you call a fate? Didn't you just hear? It's difficult for witch doctors in all generations to live past the age of 40. Do you want to kill Xiruo?"

Dao Wuya remained silent, looked at the witch doctor ghost's painful expression, and advised: "Senior witch doctor has done me a favor, so I have also saved Xiruo's life, right?"

Chen Qingzhou thought about it and realized that Dao Wuya had indeed rescued himself and Xi Ruo from the siege of the snake demon, but he was still furious and kept silent with his hands on his hips.

Dao Wuya rarely relaxed his tone, "I know that Xiruo has the power to choose her own life, but look at Nanman now, let alone a little girl like her, can you protect yourself?"

Chen Qingzhou was about to argue, but found he had no idea where to start.

Dao Wuya continued, "There is war going on outside, monsters are rampant, and we can't take care of her forever. Even if a tribe is willing to take her in, can you guarantee that the tribe can protect her?"

Chen Qingzhou frowned.

Dao Wuya quickly persuaded, "Wouldn't it be good to let her learn some skills from the witch doctor? I can talk to the seniors and let's both take a step back and not let her come into contact with those poisonous substances. Is that okay?"
