Chapter 73 Heart Eater Gu

Ji Xinyue took Jiang Linglong into her arms, smelled the fragrance on the tip of her nose, and smiled kindly.

"Linglong, even though my mother has not been by your side during these years, she has secretly seen every move you make. You are her daughter. Doesn't she still know your character?"

"If it weren't for your imperial brother... I'm afraid you wouldn't have made such a choice."

"You had no choice at the time, but now that you have left the Imperial City and your life and death are no longer controlled by others, you can have other choices."

"The Queen Mother will not force you to take revenge, let alone regain the Great Zhou Dynasty. During this period of time, the Queen Mother has been thinking a lot in the palace alone."

"This life of a person is short, so you should do what you want to do while there is still time, so that you will not regret it before you die."

"It doesn't matter whose hands this world is in. A hundred years later, it will turn into a withered skeleton, and the past will be like a dream..."

Jiang Linglong leaned on Ji Xinyue's shoulder and listened silently.

During these days, she had had such thoughts more than once.

Especially after meeting Cangyun County with Lu Yuan, I realized that there were such beautiful things in the world.

At that moment, she wanted to give up the most.

Throne?

To be honest, she really didn't care.

Among hundreds of millions of people, leaving her name in history was just an excuse she used to convince herself.

If she hadn't witnessed the death in front of her of her father and mother, who had treated her so well since childhood, she would have never thought that she would be in that position, and she would never have thought of fighting for it.

But at that time, she had no other choice.

If we fight with each other in the same room, either you will die or I will die, and there can only be one winner.

In order to survive and avenge her royal brother, she had no choice.

Even if it was as hard as being an emperor, she had to do that.

Ji Xinyue really spoke her mind.

What she wanted to do most all along was actually very simple.

You can sleep until you wake up naturally every day, eat whatever you want, travel all over the country, and see all the beautiful scenery in the world...

But now, in troubled times, this idea is just a wishful thinking.

Want to let go, easier said than done?

How could she let go of the hatred of the imperial brother, the hatred of the master, and the hatred of Da Zhou!
Not to mention that along the way, there were mourning victims all over the place, and they exchanged their children for food, which all touched her heartstrings.

How could she sit back and do nothing?
Many images flashed through her mind. Jiang Linglong shook her head and said firmly: "Queen Mother, now, I also have no other choice."

Ji Xinyue was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay, the queen mother knows."

"As long as it's what you want to do and you don't feel any regrets."

As she spoke, her body suddenly softened and her eyes slowly closed.

When Jiang Linglong discovered something strange, she couldn't help but turn pale with fright, and quickly shouted: "Queen Mother!"

……

in the room.

Ji Xinyue was lying on the bed, her face as pale as paper.

Ning Youruo was checking Ji Xinyue's pulse, her brows furrowed.

After a long while, he retracted his hand and his expression became more solemn.

Jiang Linglong stood aside and asked with a worried look: "Sister Youruo, how is my mother?"

Ning Youruo shook his head thoughtfully, thought for a while, and shook his head and said: "Weird, so weird. I have never seen such a disease before. It's too weird."

"Sister Linglong, I don't know what to tell you. Your mother's pulse is chaotic and traceless, as if she was poisoned, but I can't find the toxin."

"Poisoned?"

Jiang Linglong's beautiful eyes flashed slightly, and she immediately thought of Su Quan.

Could it be that Su Quan had been on guard for a long time, so he deliberately poisoned her to control his mother?

But at this moment, it was not the time to pursue this matter. She asked: "Sister Youruo, is there no other way?" "Yes, just because I can't do it doesn't mean there is no cure. Have you forgotten that my husband-in-law?" His medical skills are much better than mine." Ning Youruo said.

"Yes...brother-in-law, I almost forgot."

Jiang Linglong slapped her head and almost forgot about it in her desperation, then turned around to find Lu Yuan.

As soon as she took two steps, Lu Yuan appeared in front of her.

"Brother-in-law."

Seeing Lu Yuan, Jiang Linglong hurriedly stepped forward, took Lu Yuan's arm, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and said urgently: "Brother-in-law, please save my mother quickly."

Feeling the softness on his hands through his clothes, Lu Yuan coughed slightly and withdrew his arm without leaving a trace, "Don't be impatient, don't worry."

Then he came to the head of the bed and sat down, looking at the weak face on the bed, his mood was ups and downs.

This face, even after 20 years, is still as beautiful as ever.

Less youthful and more mature.

Lu Yuan shook his head, put aside his distracting thoughts, stretched out his right hand and placed it on Ji Xinyue's bloodless wrist, closed his eyes and listened.

Ji Xinyue's hands were cold, and her pulse was as strange and disorganized as Ning Youruo said. She didn't look like a normal person at all.

And it was very weak, as if he might die at any time.

"This pulse..."

Lu Yuan pondered, frowning slightly.

He felt like he had seen this pulse before.

"Heart-eating Gu!"

Lu Yuan remembered.

In this world, in addition to martial arts, there are also some strange arts.

Gu magic is one of them.

Gu magic comes from the shaman clan in southern Xinjiang. In the martial arts world, there are also forces such as the Five Poison Sect. In addition to practicing martial arts, they also cultivate voodoo and poison from childhood.

Different Gu insects have different abilities, which are very mysterious.

You have to be very careful when fighting against this type of opponent. Once you are poisoned, no matter how strong you are, it will be useless if you don't have a solution.

Many people in the world are extremely afraid of this.

The heart-eating Gu feeds on people's heart blood, hence its name.

However, those who plant the heart-eating Gu often use it to control others.

As long as they are disobedient, they will activate the poisonous insects to eat their hearts, causing people to feel such extreme pain that almost no one can bear. It is even more torturous than the ten tortures of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Back then, he met a martial arts master who was infected by the heart-eating poison and came to him, and he had a very deep memory of this.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan's medical skills had reached the peak at that time, and he signed in to obtain a mother of all poisons, which helped the master remove the poison and saved his life.

Since then, in order to repay his kindness, the master stayed in Cangyun County and obeyed Lu Yuan's orders.

That master is no ordinary person, but a very famous swordsman in the world. It is said that his sword skills are exquisite and he is known as the third sword in the world.

The first sword and the second sword are the blood sword of one of the top ten masters, and the fastest sword in the world.

"Heart-eating Gu? No wonder!"

When Ning Youruo heard this, it suddenly dawned on her. No wonder she couldn't find it out. It turned out that her pulse was disturbed by Gu insects. It wasn't that she was incompetent, but she simply didn't think about it.

Just think, who would have thought that a noble concubine far away in the imperial palace would fall into the witchcraft of southern Xinjiang?
Jiang Linglong had heard of Gu insects, but not the Heart-Eating Gu. She asked curiously: "Sister Youruo, what is the Heart-Eating Gu?"

Ning Youruo smiled and replied: "This so-called heart-eating Gu..."

After hearing Ning Youruo's explanation, Jiang Linglong's face suddenly turned pale.

There are such powerful Gu insects in the world!

The key is, when was his mother bewitched?
Who did it?What do you want?

 Thanks for the reward vote!
