Bestiary Entry[]

One of three insects that live in the human body. It lives in the head and causes anxiety, suspicion, and hallucinations. Guards Master Xifa's Ni Wan Palace.

Strategy[]

Seeing as you're left without means of healing, this battle is all about killing the boss before it kills you. It is recommended that you use the Flash Badge gained from Xiaofang's lottery, but it isn't a necessity. Also, despite the boss's water element, Zhuzhen won't help all that much, so have him defend.

Etymology[]

Quingupicture

Qinggu depicted as a Doctor

Along with the other two bosses of the Temple Ruins, Qinggu is meant to be a reference to the Three Corpses, a Taoist physiological belief that demonic creatures live inside the human body, and they seek to hasten the death of their host.

Qinggu is described as "he who makes men blind, or deaf, or bald, who makes the teeth fall out, who stops up the nose and gives bad breath."

The name is derived from the pronunciation of the characters, "青" ("Blue/Green"), and "古" ("Ancient, Old").

Trivia[]

  • Of the three guardian bosses of the Temple Ruins, this is the only one that is left handed - the other two are right.
