Someone sabotaged the water-suppressing mythical beast, altering the feng shui pattern. As a result, Jiangyan City no longer brings blessings to the Land of Abundance, but instead becomes the culprit that could potentially flood the entire Sichuan region.
Fortunately, Wang Ye and his team acted promptly from the start, thus thwarting the conspiracy of the mastermind.
Thinking of this, Huang Miao couldn't help but glance at Linglan.
How did the Gu worms from Miao territory spread to the outside world?
While in the village, Linglan did not explain what exactly happened in the village a hundred years ago that led to the change of the Miao Gu Body Saintess, and even made Linglan become the Gu Body Saintess at the age of thirteen.
"A hundred years ago, a man in black broke into the village. He was very powerful. He threatened the lives of everyone in the village and forced the Gu-body Saintess to refine the most vicious Gu worms and control people's hearts."
The Holy Maiden of Gu knew that once such a Gu worm was successfully refined, it would definitely be used by the man in black to harm people.
She tried to stop them and even attempted to cast a spell on the man in black.
The Lover's Gu was a taboo subject for the Gu-wielding Saintess. Unfortunately, she still managed to cast the Lover's Gu on the man in black…
After being afflicted by the Lover's Gu, the man in black fell in love with the Gu-possessed saintess and stopped attacking the people in the village, instead staying by her side.
Although the Gu-body Saintess kept the mother Gu within her body, she still suffered a backlash.
As time went on, the backlash suffered by the Gu-possessed Saintess became increasingly severe. So, she devised a plan: to become pregnant and, during childbirth, transfer the Lover Gu to the infant. This way, the Saintess would no longer suffer the backlash from the Lover Gu and could take the opportunity to eliminate the man in black.
Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. During the transfer of the Love Poison, the man in black briefly broke free from its control and returned to normal.
While with the Gu-body Saintess, the man in black learned how to refine Gu worms because of the Lover Gu. He took all the Gu worms that the Gu-body Saintess had refined with him.
The offspring of the Lover's Gu were forced out of the body, and the mother Gu also perished. The Gu-Body Saintess, in the process of preventing the man in black from leaving, was severely injured and near death. The Gu-Body Saintess's child inherited her cultivation and became the next Gu-Body Saintess.
"That's not right. According to you, the later Gu Body Saintess is the child of the previous Saintess, and that child is also a descendant of the man in black. What does that have to do with you becoming the Gu Body Saintess at such a young age? Surely you're not a direct descendant of that Gu Body Saintess, are you?"
What Linglan recalled was the unknown secret of the Miao Jiang Gu-body Saintess. Under normal circumstances, such a secret would never be revealed so easily, but Linglan spoke of it very naturally.
Judging from her age, although the child of that Gu-body Saintess inherited her cultivation, something must have happened that led to her death. Otherwise, the situation described by Linglan wouldn't have occurred, allowing her to assume the position of Gu-body Saintess at the age of thirteen.
"The Gu Body Saintess of Miao Jiang is personally selected by the previous Gu Body Saintess, who takes her under her wing and teaches her carefully. When the new Gu Body Saintess reaches the appropriate age, she can naturally and officially become the Gu Body Saintess."
Although the previous Gu Body Saintess gave birth to a child, and that child successfully became the new Gu Body Saintess, she did not grow up by the side of the Gu Body Saintess. Despite possessing great strength, she was unable to use it.
Similarly, due to the sudden death of the previous Gu Body Saintess, the cultivation methods for Gu Body Saintess could not be passed down in time. Subsequent Gu Body Saintess had to learn everything through trial and error on their own.
She was walking a path no one had ever walked before. No one knew what the scenery along the way would be like, not even the Gu-body Saintess herself.
She suffered a backlash from the very venomous insects she had raised and tragically passed away.
The new Holy Maiden of Gu Body was only thirteen years old at the time, still an ignorant and naive age, yet she was forced to grow up.
From that time on, perhaps due to some kind of curse, every Gu Body Saintess never lived past the age of twenty, and the new Gu Body Saintess was always forced to take over at the age of thirteen.
The new Gu-body Saintess can only continue her studies by relying on the notes left behind by the previous Gu-body Saintesss.
It wasn't that no holy maidens with Gu bodies tried to break this cursed fate, but they all met with bad ends.
Over the course of a century, the Miao region has seen several successive Holy Maidens with Gu Poison Body.
What can I do?
"Director Huang, tell me, if you were in my shoes, what would you do?"
At this point, Linglan's voice trembled with barely concealed sobs. Though she was the high and mighty Gu-body Saintess of Miao territory, who would willingly foresee their fate before it even began?
Since being chosen as the next Gu Body Saintess, she has lost her freedom and studies day and night, all in order to officially succeed to the position at the age of thirteen.
Who doesn't know that when she was thirteen, it was the same time that another Gu-possessed saintess passed away?
From age thirteen to twenty, in just seven short years, she had to choose a six-year-old child to take care of and accompany her as she grew up, all so that after her death, that child could become the new Gu Body Saintess.
Perhaps every previous Gu-body Saintess accepted this fate and faced it willingly.
But Lily of the Valley refused!
Back then, it was clearly the man in black who made the mistake. It was the previous Gu-body Saintess who misjudged people, which led to her exhaustion and inability to even take revenge.
Why should the later Gu-possessed saintess bear such a fate?
In order to change her fate, Linglan opened the forbidden book of Miao territory and used her own heart's blood to deduce that there was a person who was the key to changing the tragic fate of the Miao holy maiden with the Gu body.
And the future of Miao territory is closely linked to this person.
After figuring all this out, Linglan had a plan in mind.
The Miao villages, which were originally isolated from the outside world and hidden deep in the mountains, gradually began to connect with the outside world under Linglan's arrangement.
This is why when Huang Miao arrived at the village, he saw the modern decoration and furnishings inside the stilted buildings.
Huang Miao admitted that he truly could not answer Linglan's final question.
If I were in Lily of the Valley's position, I would probably want to do even more.
The source of all evil lies with that man in black.
The reason Suzuran came with me this time is not only to change my fate, but also to take revenge.
Her hatred for the man in black had reached its peak.
The Miao Jiang Gu-possessed Holy Maiden has fallen to this state all because of the men in black.
The Gu worms taken away by the man in black have not appeared for a hundred years. In addition, the Miao villages are isolated from the world, and the Gu-body saintess changes frequently, so no one has the energy to come out and seek revenge on the man in black.
Since Linglan decided to enter the world, she has sent people to search for traces of the Gu worms, but to no avail.
When Huang Miao mentioned the Gu worm, Linglan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.
The person she had been waiting for finally appeared.
"Do you think the person who planted the Gu worms in the Luo family was that man in black from a hundred years ago?"
Some things don't need to be said too bluntly, so Huang Miao didn't follow up on Linglan's words, but naturally changed the subject.
He knew what he would do, and what Suzuran would do was ultimately different.
Right now, the more important thing is to remove the Gu worms that have afflicted the Luo family. "If these are truly the Gu worms that the man in black took from your village a hundred years ago, after the passing of that Gu-body Saintess, can the Miao Gu-body Saintess still remove these Gu worms?"
This is the issue that Huang Miao is more concerned about, and it is also the first problem they are currently facing.
Once this problem is solved, everything else will fall into place; if we get stuck here from the start, then things will be troublesome.
Before heading to the Miao village to find the Miao Gu-body Saintess, Huang Miao never imagined that a hundred years ago, the Miao village had also been caught up in this scheme.
"The previous Gu-possessed saintesses may not have been able to undo this Gu worm, but I am different. Even if this Gu worm has evolved, I can still solve it!"
Lily of the Valley has absolute confidence in herself.
Nothing can stop her from changing her destiny. She will surely slay gods and demons alike, and kill Buddhas who stand in her way!
Linglan, who has mastered the forbidden techniques of the Miao region, is undoubtedly the number one person in the Miao region.
The successive Holy Maidens of the Gu Body did not have enough time to cultivate, so their strength was naturally weak and they were unable to protect Miao territory. They could only stay in the deep mountains and never come out into the world in order to maintain stability.
But lily of the valley is different!
Ambitious and exceptionally capable, she successfully subdued the villagers, firmly placing them under her control. The words of the Gu-body Saintess were like imperial edicts; no one dared disobey, and those who did were to be killed!
Time slipped by quietly as Huang Miao and Linglan chatted, and they finally reunited with Wang Ye and Wu Xie.
When they saw Huang Miao step out of the car, Wang Ye and Wu Xie were both stunned.
After all, ever since they started carrying out missions independently, Huang Miao and Zhang Qilin, the two leaders, have almost always let them handle the various problems in the missions on their own.
Even when assistance or supplies were needed, other people were sent, and even Xiao Chen had been dispatched on missions. They never expected that Huang Miao would come in person this time because of the Gu worms.
In contrast, Suzuran, who stepped out of the passenger seat, was less noticeable.
"Why are you here in person?"
Wang Ye finally snapped out of his daze amidst Huang Miao's faint smile and asked in a slightly stuttering voice.
"This Gu worm is quite special, which is why I made this trip in person. This is Linglan, the Gu-body Saintess of Miao territory. Next, she will assist you in removing the Gu worms that have afflicted the Luo family."
However, I must warn you that the man in black behind the scenes has a special identity, and you may not be a match for him. If you encounter him, make sure to act only when your own safety is guaranteed.
Of course, if there's a chance to capture him, we can fight back with all our might, just leave him alive!
Huang Miao smiled faintly and pointed to Linglan, who had walked up to him, as he introduced her.
Wang Ye and Wu Xie exchanged a glance, their faces filled with astonishment. They simply couldn't believe that the young woman following the person in charge was actually the Miao Jiang Gu-body Saintess. If Huang Miao hadn't said it himself, they would have scoffed at it.
Wu Xie knew very little about the Miao Jiang Gu-body Saintess, only that the Miao people were skilled at refining Gu worms.
Considering this, it's understandable that the person in charge sought help from the Miao Jiang Gu-body Saintess.
He had no idea that the Miao Gu Body Saintess lineage, who were truly capable of refining Gu worms, had long since gone into seclusion, hiding deep in the mountains and forests, making them extremely difficult for ordinary people to find, let alone ask the Miao Gu Body Saintess to help.
Compared to Wu Xie's composure, Wang Ye was thinking much more.
"Sir, the Miao Jiang Gu Body Saintess lineage has long been in seclusion. How did you find their hiding place and even bring the Miao Jiang Gu Body Saintess out with you?"
Although they knew that the person in charge was incredibly powerful and that nothing seemed to be able to stump him, this was the Miao Jiang Gu-body Saintess, and they would never recognize the girl in front of them.
"The lineage of the Miao Jiang Gu-body Saintess has a grudge against the person who placed the Gu on the Luo family!"
Huang Miao did not explain in detail, believing that this was enough.
"Gentlemen, would you mind taking me to see the person who has been poisoned by the curse?"
Linglan didn't take Wang Ye and his group's exploration of her village to heart at all. She just looked at Wang Ye and Wu Xie and said in a relaxed tone.
"No problem, Saintess of the Gu Body, there's no need to be so polite. Just call us by our names. I am Wang Ye, and he is Wu Xie. We'll be working together for a long time to come, so being too polite will only distance us..."
When Linglan took the initiative to speak, Wang Ye laughed and pointed to himself and Wu Xie to introduce himself. He even subconsciously thought that since Linglan was brought by Huang Miao himself, she would definitely join the Feng Shui Bureau in the future. Since everyone was a colleague and would be on missions together, he couldn't be too polite.
Startled by Wang Ye's words, Linglan glanced at Huang Miao subtly before smiling and nodding, "Wang Ye, don't call me the Gu Body Saintess anymore, just call me Linglan!"
She seemed to agree with Wang Ye's statement.
Wang Ye took the initiative to build a good relationship with Linglan, which did not surprise Huang Miao. He was just curious about Linglan's attitude.
Watching Linglan follow Wang Ye and Wu Xie in another direction, Huang Miao, who remained standing still, gently stroked his chin and thought to himself, "If we really incorporate the Miao Jiang Gu-body Saintess into the feng shui arrangement, it might not be so bad!"
-
same moment.
The Luo family, hundreds of miles away.
The Third Elder was locked in a room alone with Luo Qing.
Luo Qing woke up once during the journey, and his gaze toward the Third Elder was full of unfamiliarity, even showing an impulse to destroy everything.
His reaction greatly frightened the Third Elder. The Third Elder knew that the Gu worm could control Luo Qing, but that person had never said that the Gu worm would turn Luo Qing into another person!
Fortunately, Luo Qing's reaction did not last long. After the murderous aura spread throughout his body, he seemed to lose all his strength and fainted again.
This time, the Third Elder stayed away from Luo Qing and dared not approach him again.
The room wasn't large. When Wang Ye and Wu Xie brought Linglan in, they saw the Third Elder huddled in a corner, trembling and seemingly lost in thought. His eyes lit up when he saw Wu Xie and Wang Ye.
It's no exaggeration to say that at that moment, Wang Ye felt as if the Third Elder regarded them as his saviors, rushing towards them and hiding behind them. The hand holding Wang Ye's arm was even trembling slightly.
This made Wang curious. What exactly happened when the Third Elder was locked up with the unconscious Luo Qing, that would cause the Third Elder to have such a strong reaction?
Luo Qing remained unconscious. Wu Xie noticed that although the Third Elder was hiding behind them, his eyes were filled with extreme fear when he looked at Luo Qing lying on the ground.
The Third Elder was afraid of Luo Qing.
Linglan's attention was drawn to Luo Qing, who was lying unconscious on the ground.
Ignoring everyone else, she entered the room and came to Luo Qing.
Looking down at Luo Qing, Linglan smiled mockingly after a long while.
"Lily of the Valley, how are you? Did you notice anything?"
Everyone knows Luo Qing is in this state because he's been infected by a Gu worm, but Wang Ye and Wu Xie are helpless; otherwise, they wouldn't have sought Huang Miao's help. (End of Chapter)
