Sheriff Uncle, open the door quickly! I've come to solve a case!

"Why?" Qin Qingzhou asked, somewhat puzzled.

This is already a case of intentional injury with conclusive evidence, so the police have to handle it.

Bai Zhizhi gave his uncle a silly look: "This was done by someone with superpowers. We need Brother Beibei and the others to come and take them away."

"The villain who used the Gu is a superhuman. Hua Hua's aunt will also be killed by the Gu. If we don't hand it over to Brother Bei Bei and the others to deal with, it will scare everyone."

Qin Qingzhou hadn't expected this at all. He chuckled and patted Bai Zhizhi's head, saying, "Zhizhi is really smart."

Bai Zhizhi went to contact Yu Bei with a smug look on her face, chattering away as she explained the situation, including a lot of talk about eating, drinking, and having fun.

In short, it took a lot of effort to explain it clearly.

After hanging up the phone, Bai Zhizhi quickly jumped into the car while holding the little wooden puppet.

Qin Qingzhou, unaware of what was going on, also got into the car.

As soon as they got on the bus, they saw Bai Zhizhi take out a talisman from his bundle and start drawing it. After he finished drawing it, he stuck it on the little wooden puppet. In the blink of an eye, the little wooden puppet's body began to twist, gradually becoming smaller and longer, until it turned into an extremely long centipede.

Even Qin Qingzhou, a person who is usually calm no matter what he sees, gasped involuntarily when he saw this disgusting worm.

The insects were still alive, crawling around on Bai Zhizhi's hand, but Bai Zhizhi wasn't afraid at all.

"Is this the Gu worm?" Qin Qingzhou stood at the car door, hesitant to go in.

"Yes, these bugs specifically burrow into babies' brains and suck out their contents. This one, being this size, must have already sucked the brains of many babies!"

Bai Zhizhi grew angrier as she spoke, forcefully closing her eyes: "That big bad guy hurt so many babies! He can't be forgiven!"

A burst of golden light suddenly surged from her body. Qin Qingzhou was startled and hurriedly got into the car and closed the door.

Upon seeing the golden light, the Gu worm suddenly stopped moving, its body twitched slightly, and it died with its head turned in a certain direction.

Bai Zhizhi opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the Gu worm's head: "Zhizhi will never forgive that big bad guy!"

She chanted a few incantations, and her body suddenly shone with golden light. A rumble of thunder sounded in the sky, and when the thunder stopped, the golden light on her body disappeared.

Inside a bamboo house in a Miao village, a man who was sleeping suddenly opened his eyes.

A muffled clap of thunder ripped through the silent night.

He immediately sensed something was wrong and got up to pick up the Gu worm next to him.

The worms squealed and crawled wildly inside the container, then suddenly exploded from the inside out, spitting out green blood.

A metallic taste rose in the man's throat: "Cough!"

He coughed up a mouthful of black blood and collapsed weakly to the ground.

"Who is it...?"

He angrily threw the dead Gu worm aside, shattering the glass and scattering shards of glass and the Gu worm's corpse everywhere.

He didn't care about anything else. He chanted a few incantations to force the Gu worm out of his wrist artery, then got up, barely alive, and left the village.

Bai Zhizhi was pale and covered in sweat.

Qin Qingzhou didn't dare touch her: "Are you alright?"

Bai Zhizhi shook her head: "It's alright, Uncle. The big bad guy escaped. It's just that Zhizhi is too weak."

"You've done your best," Qin Qingzhou comforted her.

"Once you know, you must catch the big bad guy!"

"One person's strength is too weak. Zhizhi, you've already done a great job. Why don't we wait until Yu Bei and the others have finished dealing with Wang Juan, and then have them come and help?"

"Uncle is right!"

Bai Zhizhi was so tired that after burning all the Gu worms to ashes, she leaned back in her chair and fell asleep.

……

Yu Bei went to Wang Juan's house alone.

He sensed something was wrong when he saw the rumble of thunder in the sky on the way.

Isn't Bai Zhizhi being a bit too reckless?

Ordinary Taoist priests are absolutely forbidden from summoning heavenly lightning, yet Bai Zhizhi was able to do so.

This is enough to prove Bai Zhizhi's strength, but is this really a good thing?

He had seen far too many people who had been harmed by the backlash of Taoist practices.

When they arrived at Wang Juan's door, Yu Bei didn't knock. Instead, he took out a broken talisman and stuck it on the door. A few seconds later, he turned the doorknob, and the door opened directly.

Wang Juan and her husband lay on the ground, with countless worms crawling around their home.

And what about Wang Juan?

Her belly swelled to an unnatural size. When her abdomen was cut open, there was no blood at all. The organs inside her belly had been almost completely eaten away by insects.

Her husband was not spared either.

Originally, the cultivation of Gu worms required a ten-month gestation period. Unfortunately, the person who cast the Gu was weakened, and his Gu worms were also affected, ultimately leading to a tragedy.

Yu Bei skillfully opened the bag and began to deal with the scene.

……

The next day, as Bai Zhizhi entered the classroom, he heard Hua Hua recounting her glorious deeds with great emotion.

Hua Hua spoke in a very exaggerated manner, gesturing wildly with her hands.

"Zhizhi is incredibly powerful! That little wooden puppet tried to hurt her, and she slapped it away with one hand, and a huge flame shot out from her hand! She even criticized her bad aunt, and now her bad aunt is afraid of Zhizhi!"

As soon as Bai Zhizhi entered, she was surrounded by a group of people: "Zhizhi is so amazing!"

"Zhi Zhi can even use fire? Is he a magician?"

"Won't Zhizhi get burned by the fire?"

Bai Zhizhi was so proud of the praise that she held her head high.

"Of course not~ The Dao of Zhi is fire."

"Could we take a look?"

"Hmph, just you wait and see~"

Bai Zhi pointed his finger into the air, and instantly a small flame ignited at his fingertip, looking just like the flame of a lighter.

The children were startled, shouted excitedly, took a step back, and then quickly surrounded him again.

"Wow, Zhi really can use fire! That's amazing!"

The mischievous little boy, always eager for a good show, exclaimed, "Hua Hua said you could make a big fire, but this fire isn't big at all!"

Bai Zhizhi's fingers turned into a palm: "Then you guys move aside a bit, okay? I'm afraid I'll hurt you."

Children, take a step back.

Bai Zhizhi opened his palm, and a slightly larger flame shot up. The children excitedly exclaimed, "It's true! That's amazing!"

"Bai Zhizhi! How could you let the children play with fire!"

As soon as Teacher Sheep entered the classroom, her vision went black, and she quickly went forward to pull all the children apart.

"This is too dangerous, you know? Playing with fire indoors could burn the whole house down, and children could get hurt."

Bai Zhizhi stood there dejectedly, already used to being criticized by Teacher Xiaoyang.

Hua Hua was a little sad: "Teacher Xiao Yang, don't blame Zhi Zhi. It was all because Hua Hua said that Zhi Zhi could use fire that the children wanted to watch. If you have to blame someone, blame Hua Hua."

Bai Zhizhi stubbornly pouted, "Zhizhi won't hurt the children. Zhizhi's fire is good fire."

Teacher Xiaoyang was extremely helpless. She squatted down in front of Bai Zhizhi and said, "Teacher knows that Zhizhi's fire is good fire, but the children can't tell the difference right now. What if they want to be as powerful as Zhizhi and go play with those bad fires?"

Bai Zhizhi nodded in agreement: "The teacher is right."

After finally managing to soothe the child, Teacher Xiaoyang sighed and went back to her office to send a message to Qin Qingzhou:

[Knowing about his uncle...]

Upon seeing Teacher Xiaoyang's message, Qin Qingzhou closed her eyes in despair.
