Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 268 Bringing Out the Mother Gu
Lu Nanzhi's heart beat faster, she wrapped the quilt tightly, looked at Ji Mingcheng, his eyes made her feel oppressed and nervous.She coughed lightly, trying to hide her uneasiness.The atmosphere in the room became heavy and suffocating.

Jimingcheng looked around the room, but found nothing unusual, but smelled a bloody smell.

Lu Nanzhi looked at Ji Mingcheng's eyes, but couldn't tell what was going on in his heart.I was a little scared in my heart, wondering if this man would do anything to her.He coughed lightly, trying to break the awkward atmosphere.

"Has anyone been here?" Jimingcheng asked sharply.

Lu Nanzhi felt nervous for a while, and quickly denied it: "No, no one has been here except you."

Jimingcheng didn't speak, his eyes scanned every corner of the room, as if looking for something.Lu Nanzhi felt a little uneasy, afraid that Shen Lanze would be discovered.

Suddenly, Ji Mingcheng went to the bed and pulled her away, and checked her carefully.

Lu Nanzhi looked at his movements and asked calmly, "What are you doing!"

"The lock on the door, only you have the key, how could anyone come in?"

Ji Mingcheng turned to look at Lu Nanzhi.Eyes full of vigilance and suspicion.

He felt that what Lu Nanzhi said made sense. The door was locked when he came here, and there should be no one in the room. "You'd better not play tricks with me, or I will make your life worse than death."

"If you are willing to cooperate obediently and marry my son, maybe I will consider letting you live."

Ji Mingcheng snorted coldly, turned to leave, and when he left, he looked at the lock on the door thoughtfully.

Lu Nanzhi came to the door, looked out through the gap, and was relieved to see the people walking away.

She was really frightened just now, and Ji Mingcheng almost found out.

Lu Nanzhi opened the secret room and brought Shen Lanze out, and saw a pale man helping him to sit on the bed.

Chen Xi also opened the door and walked in, checked Shen Lanze's wound, and looked a little serious.

"Your wound is a bit inflamed, it must be dealt with as soon as possible, why not..."

"No." Shen Lanze interrupted him directly, he couldn't leave Lu Nanzhi alone.

Chen Xi was a little annoyed and said: "Staying here like this is also causing trouble, and it will drag us down in the end. I will find a way to send you out first, and you bring someone to rescue."

Shen Lanze held Lu Nanzhi's hand tightly. He didn't know that the situation was special, but how could he leave Lu Nanzhi alone.

"I will not leave her alone."

"Don't be stubborn, the current situation doesn't allow you to hesitate anymore, don't you have the heart to watch her suffer?" Chen Xi persuaded again.

Lu Nanzhi looked at Shen Lanze and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will protect myself and nothing will happen."

"No." Shen Lanze said firmly.

Chen Xi was a little anxious, he accused: "Do you know how dangerous it is now, and Ji Mingcheng hates you even more, do you know that you will let you go here?"

Shen Lanze still insisted: "I have already decided, no matter what, I will not abandon her alone."

"Stop arguing, all of you," Lu Nanzhi shouted when he saw the two arguing endlessly.

"Let's analyze the current situation first, then talk about what to do next, and finally decide whether to send him out." Lu Nanzhi said as calmly as possible.

The two nodded in agreement with this proposal, and Chen Xi took the lead and said: "I don't know if the person in the secret room is Ji Shengquan, but the Gu worm on his body is the king of Gu poison, but this is just one of them, if I guess correctly The other one is on Yan Wen."

Lu Nanzhi frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Chen Xi explained: "This Gu technique is called Blood Devouring Gu. It can suck blood to strengthen itself, and can control the host's actions and psychology."

"Isn't that equivalent to a puppet?" Shen Lanze blurted out, his face turned pale instantly.

"It can also be understood in this way." Chen Xi nodded.

After being silent for a long time, Shen Lanze raised his head and said to Chen Xi: "Then is there a way to relieve Gu?"

Chen Xi sighed helplessly, and continued: "The male Gu must be used to lure the female Gu."

"Then what should we do now? How can we confirm whether Ji Shengquan is a male Gu or a female Gu?" Lu Nanzhi interrupted and asked.

Chen Xi took out a porcelain bottle, "It's the mother Gu, only the mother Gu can produce Gu insects, we must leave here with Ji Shengquan, or bring Yan Wen here."

Lu Nanzhi suddenly thought of something: "Don't you know how to detoxify Gu? If you can lead the mother Gu to someone else and seal it up?"

Immediately seal the Gu insects into their bodies, control them in a short time, leave here in time, return to Yan Wen's side and draw the Gu poison out, this is the best way.

Chen Xi shook his head: "No, the female Gu and the male Gu have a very strong interaction with each other. If the female Gu is sealed, the male Gu will respond, and...if it is discovered by Ji Mingcheng, things will become uncontrollable."

Lu Nanzhi frowned in annoyance, neither this method nor any other method would work, what would it do, could it be possible to bring Yan Wen back here again?

"There is no other way now, why not try?" Shen Lanze said again.

Instead of sitting here and waiting to die, it is better to try with all your strength, maybe there is still a glimmer of life.

Lu Nanzhi's eyes lit up: "Try it!"

Several people discussed it, and finally decided to go for a try, after all, this is their only chance now.

In the secret room, Chen Xi placed the porcelain vase containing Gu worms on Ji Shengquan's chest, took out a few small silver needles, stabbed his chest, and then cut his chest with a dagger.

Shen Lanze stretched out his palm, and there was a long bloodstain on it, and the blood kept dripping on the ground.

Three pairs of eyes fixed on the corpse's chest, and saw that the surface of his skin began to swell slowly, as if something was about to emerge from it.

"Ah—" The sleeping person suddenly opened his eyes and roared heart-piercingly.

Then, a shrill scream rang through my ears.

Lu Nanzhi was so frightened that his face turned pale, but Chen Xi didn't show any sign of panic, instead he showed a happy smile. Just now, the mother Gu who was trapped in the dead body was finally forced out!
The mother Gu rushed towards the position where Chenxi was standing. Just as they were happy for their success, the Gu worm accidentally slipped into Lu Nanzhi's arm.

Lu Nanzhi felt the severe pain from his arm, his eyes gradually turned red, his body became a little stiff, and his consciousness gradually became a little blurred.

Shen Lanze was so shocked that he turned his head to look at Chen Xi and said, "How could this be?"

"Hush—" Chen Xi made a silent gesture to him, signaling him to keep quiet.

Hastily took a small silver needle and pricked it on Lu Nanzhi's arm, temporarily controlling the mother Gu.

While the mother Gu was under control, Yan Wen in Lu's house seemed to have sensed it, and covered his chest in pain.
