The ghost-catching princess, she always pretends to be weak
Chapter 174 The Eve of Sacrifice
After the people left, Wen Jiu and Zhou Lingran carefully came out from behind the shelf and walked to the same Gu insect just now - the Bell Flower Gu.
"What kind of Gu is this?" It seems that this name sounds much better than other Gu insects.
Wen Jiu glanced at him: "Why do you look so colorful?"
It looked very much like the poisonous snake I had seen at Ah Yin's place half a month ago.
Zhou Lingran thought for a moment and said with a heavy expression: "This bell flower Gu can make people die painfully and beautifully. The more painful it is, the more beautiful it is."
"What do you mean?"
"People who are infected by this poison will have flowers blooming all over their bodies, which will sway when exposed to the wind and make the sound of bells, so they are called bell flower poison. However, the blooming time of this flower is comparable to that of an epiphyllum, and the flowers will wither. When a person dies, the more flowers there are on the body, the more severe the skin ruptures.”
"What on earth are these things? Compared to the imperial prison in Beijing, it is really worse than anything else."
Everyone says that no one can come out of the prison alive, but if you enter this Gu breeding room, you may die hundreds of times without leaving a complete body.
Wen Jiu suddenly remembered what the man said just now, and pulled Zhou Mingran who was about to look around: "Xiao Shi, did he just say that there will be a sacrifice in two days?"
Zhou Lingran turned around, a little confused: "If you say so, what's the problem?"
"If he carefully raised the Gu worms and used them two days later, does that mean that he had not taken any action before?"
The bell flower Gu that Mr. Wu took care of with such painstaking efforts is going to be used in the sacrifice in two days.
"It's not impossible, but senior sister, what if it's a serial killing? Everyone is a part of this incident. They just follow the original plan step by step. After killing people, the next step is to sacrifice ”
What Zhou Lingran said was not unreasonable. If the sacrifice was also part of the plan, it was most likely done by Mr. Wu.
The two looked around for nearly half an hour, but found no trace of the Heart-Eating Gu.
"No."
Wen Jiu looked at Zhou Lingran and frowned slightly.
In this huge Gu breeding room, no Heart-Eating Gu was found at all.
"It's strange. It's really strange to raise the Gu Master but not the Heart-Eating Gu."
The two returned to the inn successfully, but Lu Xu and Ye Ziheng were nowhere to be seen.
He only saw Lou Wu patrolling in front and behind, and Wen Jiu called out to him: "Where are your adults?"
When Lou Wu saw that the person coming was Wen Jiu, he raised his hands and lowered his eyes: "Miss Wen, your Excellency has been out with Mr. Ye for about two hours."
Two hours?
Wen Jiu sat back in front of the wooden table in silence, and Zhou Lingran brought some pastries out from the kitchen: "What's wrong? Are you still thinking about the bell flower Gu?"
She shook her head: "We went out with them, but they haven't come back yet."
Either they found something, or something happened.
Suddenly there were messy footsteps at the door, and Wen Jiu stood up almost at the same time.
Before she could run to the door, she saw Lu Xu holding Ye Heng up and walking through the door with difficulty.
"This is..." Wen Jiu was about to help, but was stopped by Lu Xu: "Come here."
He looked straight at Zhou Mingran.
Zhou Lingran quickly took over Ye Ziheng, with a bit of panic in his eyes: "Senior brother, what's going on?"
Wen Jiu looked Lu Xu up and down: "Are you okay?"
Lu Xu shook his head: "It's okay."
There are some minor injuries, but they are nothing compared to Ye Heng.
Zhou Lingran had already helped Ye Ziheng back to his room to check him carefully, while Wen Jiu was helping Lu Xu deal with some skin injuries in the lobby. She was shocked. It would be understandable if she and Zhou Lingran were injured today, but this was Lu Xu and Ye Ziheng. With the two of them joining forces, there should not be many people who could hurt them.
"Who were you hurt by?"
A cold light flashed in Lu Xu's eyes, and soon disappeared: "We walked to several houses separately, and nothing was abnormal. We returned to the place where he saw the evil ghost that day, and Brother Ye saw the evil ghost standing in the crowd. In the center, he chased after me.”
"The ghost appeared again?"
The ghost hunting order of the second senior brother is very strange in southern Xinjiang. Sometimes it is bright and sometimes it is not bright, or it is not not bright, but extremely dark.
"I didn't see it, but Brother Ye chased after him, and I followed closely behind."
"and after?"
If the senior brother is injured by this evil ghost, then she may really have to call for reinforcements.
"Later, we tracked down a dilapidated courtyard. It was inaccessible and seemed to be a completely deserted place, but there was a Gu breeding room."
Wen Jiu's eyes widened: "Gu room?"
But the Gu breeding room in the Witch Mansion is obviously the most heavily guarded place.
"As soon as we opened the door, someone rushed out, including those behind us. Even after being knocked down, he could stand up again. He seemed not afraid of pain or death at all."
"Were they bewitched?"
For this reason alone, the last time Wen Jiu saw someone he couldn't kill, it was the evil ghost in the bamboo forest who resurrected his corpse.
In the end, he was caught by Lu Xu.
Lu Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, emotions surging in his eyes: "If there are such powerful Gu insects in southern Xinjiang, wouldn't it be easy to order the three armies?"
Even though he and Ye Ziheng could only manage a draw by joining forces, they still returned injured. How should the soldiers in the military camp respond to the challenge?
"Lu Xu, did you catch that evil ghost?"
The person in front of me shook his head: "They just took us there. There must be something fishy there, but we didn't even get in."
Wen Jiu was inexplicably funny when he saw Lu Xu saying this, but he didn't even go in.
Zhou Lingran came down the stairs holding a wooden basin, and Wen Jiu stood up hastily: "How is senior brother?"
He shook his head, placed the basin on the table, and sighed.
Wen Jiu's heart was in his throat: "What do you mean? How is senior brother?"
Zhou Lingran smashed the jar and sat down on the stool: "Senior brother's condition seems to be caused by a poison, but I'm not sure."
"Bewitched?"
Wen's long-suspended heart finally died. All the Gu in the Gu breeding room would end up dead.
It's just that the process of dying is different.
She looked at Lu Xu: "My senior brother has been poisoned?"
Lu Xu frowned slightly: "Bewitched?"
He recalled the scene just now in his mind. The other party wanted to defeat them one by one, so they were not together.
Ye Ziheng seemed to have entered the Gu breeding room, and after breaking out of the window, they fought hand in hand with him for a moment. He just caught a glimpse of Ye Ziheng suddenly stopping on the spot and not moving, and was kicked to the ground.
Could this be a case of being poisoned?
Lu Xu's mouth opened and closed: "It's very possible."
Wen Jiu's head banged and he said in a daze, "How could this happen?"
Zhou Lingran leaned against the table with his head lowered. The book only introduced the poisonous insects, but did not explain how to solve them. Besides, he didn't even know what poison was in Ye Heng.
