“Xiao Jue, Xiao Huo, don’t be naughty… Hey, hey, you’re still eating my precious Red Lotus Ginseng! Quick, stop!”
Xie Xingyun fell silent.
These worms looked extremely similar. Only Gu Yu could give them names.
“Right!” Gu Yu suddenly smiled, “I have a Gu here, perhaps you can use it!”
Xie Xingyun’s lips curled up slightly. “What Gu?”
Love Gu!” Gu Yu picked up the fan again and closed it. He picked up an ordinary Gu worm and placed it on the handle of the fan in front of him. “This is it. I named it Little Love.”
Xie Xingyun,”…”
Gu Yu continued, “This is not an ordinary Love Gu. Once Little Love enters the human body, it will enter a state of fake death and attach itself to the depths of the meridians. The person who is poisoned by the Gu will fall in love with the first person she sees under the control of the Gu worm.”
Xie Xingyun narrowed his eyes. “Really?”
“It is definitely real. We’re all brothers. Why would I lie to you?”
“How many of these Gu worms are there?”
“I’m untalented, but I’ve refined Little Love according to the ancient methods. There’s only one in the world!”
A trace of killing intent flashed across Xie Xingyun’s eyes. “Give it to me.”
Seeing that his reaction was not right, Gu Yu covered the Gu on the fan handle and took two steps back. “No, no, what do you want?”
“Kill it.”
GuYu,”…”
“It’s just an innocent baby worm!” Gu Yu straightened his neck and said angrily, “If you touch it, kill me first.”
Xie Xingyun glanced at him coldly.
The two of them faced each other for a long time.
Xie Xingyun frowned and said, “Watch it closely.”
Gu Yu heaved a sigh of relief. “Alright, alright, alright. 1 treasure it very much. This is a Gu King obtained from killing a thousand Gu. 1 can’t bear to let others use it. I’m just being kind. Let it take a bite of Bai Xianyu before you appear. Won’t you have the Beauty?”
“There’s no need.”
Xie Xingyun glanced at him and said coldly, “Besides, have you ever thought that if it accidentally bites her and the first person she sees is not me… then 1 will let you stay with all your Gu worms forever.”
These words sounded beautiful, but Gu Yu inexplicably felt a chill run down his neck.
He shrunk his neck. “Alright, alright, 1 understand. I haven’t developed an antidote for this Gu, but 1 thought that I shouldn’t need an antidote. I can just be with the person who had the Gu planted. With such a treasure, why would 1 give others a chance?”
At night, Bai Xianyu was about to rest when she heard the little peregrine falcon.
She got out of bed and opened the window. The little peregrine falcon grabbed the window lattice and let out a few cries, indicating for her to look at its claws.
It seemed to be a packet of pastries.
There was a faint fragrance.
She sniffed lightly and untied the red string on its leg. She unwrapped it and saw that it was indeed pastries. There was a small note inside.
“Were they delicious?”
Bai Xianyu thought, I haven’t even eaten. Isn’t this too early to ask?
In the end, when she flipped the note, there was even a sentence written at the back: “The guards’ robes are old. Change them after taking a bite.”
Bai Xianyu,”…”
How many guards were there in the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor? One bite could earn a lot of money.
She looked at the peach blossom cakes that looked ordinary. They were big and substantial. “You wouldn’t know even if I didn’t eat them, right?”
Bai Xianyu was silent for a moment before picking up a piece and taking a bite.
However, this bite almost caused her teeth to fall out!
The moist dough slid down her tongue and stuck in her throat.
Bai Xianyu widened her eyes and covered her throat. She bent down and coughed a few times, trying to cough it out.
At this moment, a black shadow jumped in and poured tea for her.
Bai Xianyu choked and tears welled up in her eyes.
Xie Xingyun frowned deeply and slashed on the back of her neck with his hand.
The small piece of pastry was struck out and smashed into the teacup. It actually caused a crack on the jade teacup!
Bai Xianyu,”…”
Xie Xingyun,”…”
Bai Xianyu snatched the teacup from his hand and quickly drank it. Her throat was still sore.
“Xie Xingyun.” Bai Xianyu coughed lightly and said with difficulty, “You’re here to assassinate me, right?”
Xie Xingyun,”…”
His expression was a little unnatural. He picked up a piece, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.
Bai Xianyu stared straight at his teeth.
Xie Xingyun looked innocent. “I’ve tried it before.”
Bai Xianyu took a deep breath. “Who sold them to you? 1 definitely won’t go to his stall in the future.”
A trace of sadness flashed across Xie Xingyun’s eyes.
“That’s not right. It would be strange if this could be sold.” Bai Xianyu looked at
him. “Don’t tell me you made them..”
