With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

Chapter 982 The Frail Heiress 27
Having confirmed that she could not find any trace of the Zi Gu in Xia Zhen's body, Yun Xiuzi stopped pretending to be tired, opened her eyes, and her gaze inadvertently swept over Qin Yin.

Qin Yin is fine, which means the Gu worm hasn't been eliminated yet.

If the Zi Gu is not in Xia Zhen's body, then where could it be?
Suddenly, Yun Xiuzi looked sharply at Lian Yang on the hospital bed. No, it's impossible!
But thinking about it carefully, Lian Yang's illness came on suddenly. Apart from not showing any symptoms on her face, her body was indeed very weak. But this weakness was somewhat different from the Gu worm she had cultivated.

Yun Xiuzi was in a state of confusion.

If the venomous insect can be extracted, it seems not impossible for the other party to modify it further.

Yun Xiuzi clenched her fists, glanced at Azhen sitting to the side, and had a thousand words in her heart, but dared not ask anything.

It is still uncertain whether Lian Yang has a venomous worm in his body, and even more uncertain whether this venomous worm is related to Xia Zhen.

We must not alert the enemy until we reach that point.

She took a deep breath, smiled, and said she was fine, just a little tired lately.

Then she asked about Azhen and the others, and learned that they all had classes in the afternoon. She said that since she was here, they should all go back to class, in case they missed it.

When only the mother and son were left in the ward, Lian Yang was about to speak when Yun Xiuzi stopped him. They were still unsure whether Xia Zhen knew about the Life and Death Gu. What if there was a bugging device in the ward?
She took out her phone, and Lian Yang immediately understood. The mother and son started communicating by typing on the phone.

Upon seeing the words Yun Xiuzi typed, Lian Yang froze. The venomous worm in Xia Zhen's body was gone? Where did it go?

He asked instinctively: Will Qin Yin be in trouble?

Yun Xiuzi: At a time like this, you should be concerned about your own condition. Why are you still thinking about Qin Yin? You should think about what's wrong with your body. Is it some other illness, or have you been infected with a curse? Let me examine you again.

Lian Yang finally came to his senses: Even if Xia Zhen doesn't know the truth, our plan...

Yun Xiuzi: Let's not think about that too much for now. Your physical condition is more complicated right now.

She wasn't even sure she could solve it.

This was the first time Lian Yang had seen Yun Xiuzi so lacking in confidence, and he couldn't help but feel flustered, praying that she could completely resolve the problem.

This time, after five hours of examination, focusing on the heart, Yun Xiuzi finally discovered the venomous insect hidden in Lian Yang's heart.

Upon seeing the familiar Zi Gu, Yun Xiuzi's face turned extremely pale.

"Mom." Lian Yang sensed something was wrong and called out.

“It’s a Gu worm!” Yun Xiuzi lowered her voice. “It’s fused with your heart, and I can’t remove it.”

At this moment, Yun Xiuzi couldn't care less about anything else and didn't have time to type.

If the Xia family father and daughter truly knew about this, whether there was a bug in the hospital room or not would be irrelevant. If they were the ones who did it, this would be their retaliation.

"Could it be them?" Lian Yang asked in a panic. He had been able to remain calm before because he knew his mother was capable enough to keep him alive.

Now that his mother can't remove the worm, he'll have to stay weak like this until he dies. How could he not panic?
“I don’t know,” Yun Xiuzi said. “How could they possibly not know that the Gu could be removed? What we’ve done is very likely already known to them, and this must be their retaliation.”

Lian Yang's face turned deathly pale; this was a very bad sign.

This proves that their plan failed and that they could never outwit the Xia family.

The worst part is that there's no way to solve his situation yet, but his mother is very capable and might have other solutions.

"Mom, are there any other ways to get rid of this Gu poison?"

Yun Xiuzi nodded: "There is another way. You must know that this is a life-and-death Gu. The mother Gu is for life, and the child Gu is for death. But if the mother Gu dies, the life-and-death Gu will be useless." "Doing this means that the host of the mother Gu will be reduced to its original form, or even worse."

In Yun Xiuzi's heart, Qin Yin was certainly no match for her son.

Faced with life and death, she believed her son also knew what choice to make.

Lian Yang fell into deep thought, while Yun Xiuzi remained completely unconcerned.

The fact that her son conspired with her on this plan back then proves that he is a man destined for great things.

"Besides, the mother Gu has been removed, but it's not like she can't be planted again. Mom is using methods to delay it. As long as she can wait, she can still live after the life-and-death Gu is cultivated again. This time, we need to choose the right person carefully and not make any mistakes. Her body can't withstand a third Gu planting."

Now it remains to be seen whether Qin Yin can wait until then.

"Mom, let's leave it at that." Lian Yang knew that it was very risky for Qin Yin, but he couldn't really give up in the face of life and death. He still had many things to finish.

"There's no time like the present, let's call Qin Yin over now," Yun Xiuzi said. "We're still unsure about the Xia family father and daughter, so this is the only way we can try. If it really is them and they find out, they might not do as we want."

Then Yun Xiuzi called Qin Yin back, claiming that she had brought some local specialties for the Qin family couple but had forgotten to give them to Qin Yin, and asked her to go back to the hospital again.

Qin Yin had already arrived at the school gate, but she wasn't with Azhen.

Azhen and Ling Huan went out for coffee. Now that she and Lian Yang have broken up, Qin Yin has no right to do anything.

Upon receiving Yun Xiuzi's call, she returned to the hospital without hesitation.

After drinking the glass of water that Yun Xiuzi handed her, she felt a little dizzy. Even though she had already fainted, for some reason, she could clearly perceive everything in the outside world.

“Retrieving the mother Gu will be a bit painful, so I knocked her unconscious. You don’t want her to know these things, do you?” Yun Xiuzi noticed that Lian Yang was very nervous and explained.

Although she wasn't happy that her son cared so much about Qin Yin, she knew him well; he was a man destined for great things and knew how to make choices. It was rare for her son to have someone he liked, so she couldn't forcefully stop him; it was better to let him have his way.

Besides, she knew that Qin Yin was somewhat stubborn, and if she didn't stop her, her son might not be able to get along with Qin Yin smoothly.

If she interferes, she might actually act as a catalyst, making it harder for them to part ways.

Yun Xiuzhi refused to be the villain and let them take their course.

"After taking the mother Gu, will her body immediately become weak? Won't that arouse suspicion?" Lian Yang was a little worried.

Yun Xiuzi smiled and said, "Don't worry, it takes time for the anger to dissipate. She has congenital heart disease and some other ailments. Under the influence of the Life and Death Gu, she was not completely cured. There were some mistakes along the way, and she will only slowly return to her original state."

What is the Life-and-Death Gu?
Qin Yin couldn't help but wonder.

What is the mother Gu in her body?
She's someone who's read countless novels; could she be like the characters in those novels?

"That's good."

“I’m worried that something might happen to Qin Yin, and then Mom will be in trouble,” Lian Yang said.

Yun Xiuzi's smile became much more genuine: "Mom is confident, don't worry."

"What about the Xia family father and daughter? If they find out that we planted the 'child worm' in Xia Zhen, there will probably be trouble." Lian Yang was quite worried about this. "After all, the 'child worm' is now in my body. This should be the Xia family father and daughter's retaliation. They probably won't let this matter pass so easily."

The Xia family is very wealthy, and now they have the help of an unknown expert, which is truly worrying.
