Looking at it, these horses all looked similar, and Lin Suqing couldn't find any difference, so he casually pointed to a guard.

"Go down and find someone to ride together, this horse will be given away by the palace, and a new one will be given to you when you go back." ”

The guards dismounted with a stunned face, and all the guards looked at Lin Suqing with blank faces, only to see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally led the horse and returned to the depths of the forest.

"You don't have to follow, you can go back to the palace, if you don't return for a long time, come to the rescue. ”

When the guards heard that there was still danger, they panicked and wanted to follow.

"Your Highness......"

But Lin Suqing waved his hand and refused, and everyone had to watch him leave nervously.

Lin Suqing led the horse back to the original place in the forest, handed the reins to Ade, and asked him, "Can you choose the difficult things you said before?"

Ade took the reins, dragged the horse behind him, turned around and hugged his fist at Lin Suqing to thank him, and said at the same time: "Today, I should have died in this wilderness, but I happened to be rescued. And the person who saved me was none other than You, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Come to think of it, there was a providence in the dark that chose it for me. ”

"What choice? Are you planning to take refuge in the palace instead of taking refuge in King Ying?"

"No. With that, Adley landed on the ground and got on the horse, his movements were easy and crisp, and he did it in one go.

Lin Suqing was surprised, what does it mean if it doesn't mean that?

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince, for giving me a horse and taking my leave. Ade rode on his horse and thanked Lin Suqing again, and then rode away.

Riding a horse is easy to ride, and Ade seems to be a veteran horseback rider?

Lin Suqing suddenly remembered the cocoon in Ade's hand, and couldn't help but guess, could it be a martial arts general who knows kung fu?

When he was confused, his guards were not at ease, and rushed to the snow with him, but in fact, it was only two or three sentences.

The rest of the guards waited not far away, only the leading guard jumped off his horse, and he was the only one of the guards wearing a cloak, which seemed to be the position of a lieutenant general.

The adjutant general stepped forward and hugged his fists to persuade: "Your Highness, it is getting late, it is not appropriate to stay outside for a long time, please go back home quickly." ”

When he asked for instructions, the deputy caught a glimpse of the pile of black blood on the ground, and was stunned on the spot, and then looked into the distance following the tracks of the horse's hooves on the grass.

Lin Suqing caught the eyes of the lieutenant general, so he pointed to the pair of black blood clots and asked, "Do you know what this is?"

The adjutant general hesitated, very embarrassed. After thinking about it repeatedly, he immediately kneeled down on one knee with his fists clenched, hanging his head and feeling ashamed.

"Returning to His Highness, although his subordinate clansmen are proficient in using Gu, their subordinate teenagers left home to enlist in the army and serve the country. I only heard about witchcraft when I was a child, but I didn't know much about it. ”

Is it because I am afraid that my background will be implicated? Lin Suqing was afraid to this extent when he saw beads of sweat dripping down his jaw on his face.

Lin Suqing responded to him and said: "This palace exempts you from capital punishment and also exempts you from capital crimes." ”

The general's shoulders trembled, and it seemed that the tense heartstrings were loosened, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

continued: "The subordinates don't remember its name, they only have a vague impression, it seems that this is usually a kind of Gu for themselves. ”

Lin Suqing was stunned: "To yourself?"

"My subordinates remember that when I was a child, there was a neighbor grandma, who died soon because of a serious illness, and in order to survive and wait for her son to return from joining the army, she made such a Gu to herself. ”

The deputy general said, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "But I have also heard that if a child is weak and sick, he will also use such a Gu, it seems that this kind of Gu can stimulate potential and enhance the body. ”

Lin Suqing only felt a buzz in his brain, so what happened to Ade? Who ordered himself?

"What if an adult spits out this Gu thing? ”

The adjutant general glanced sideways at the pile of black blood on the grass, and a few beads of sweat the size of beans dripped down, making the blades of grass on the ground tremble.

"It seems like it will...... Die soon, or ...... Don't live more than half a hundred. ”

"Don't live more than half a hundred? why?" Lin Suqing was stunned.

"Because this Gu was originally used to continue life, and when the Gu is released, people will die. Those who are not destined belong to the normal physique of Gu, even if they are weak and sickly children who are affected by this Gu, they are also within the range of normal physique. Therefore, even if it can enhance the body, it is actually a kind of early wear and tear, so it will lose its life. ”

The adjutant general's memory is indeed not very clear, and he can't tell it completely, always talking and suddenly remembering to add it.

"However, being out of the Gu is not necessarily a bad thing. If it is a normal physique that is subject to Gu, it seems that if it is not discharged, it may be shorter, and I heard that when I can't live until I stand up, I will be called away by the Gu Po. ”

Lin Suqing remembered that burst of gloomy laughter, and asked the guard, "Is the Gu woman the one who is the one who is under the Gu?"

"That's right, the corresponding male is called Gu Gong. However, the Gu techniques in the subordinate clan are usually passed on to women but not to men, so there are very few Gu males. ”

The deputy general thought for a while, and then said: "I heard that because the Gu worms are raised by the Gu woman, she will have to take back the Gu worms at a certain time, and the carriers that the Gu worms previously parasitized will be used to ...... Used to feed new Gu worms. ”

Lin Suqing immediately understood, no wonder Ade said that the old woman wanted to eat him. But he thought of the gloomy old man's laughter that he had heard before, and he only heard his laughter, but he didn't see his figure, which was not unusual in any way.

"In addition to Gu magic, does Gu Po also know witchcraft?"

The adjutant general shook his head: "Your Highness forgives your sins, your subordinates don't know." However, when I was a child, I saw that the slightly powerful Gu women were all very old, and few young women learned them. Moreover, the Gu women are extraordinarily long-lived, and some can even graft the lives of others to themselves through Gu Shi, and they can live for hundreds of years. ”

100 years old, not a monster has also become an old monster.

Lin Suqing thought for a while and said slowly: "Your clansmen ......"

The deputy general shook, for fear that Lin Suqing would say something that would punish his entire clan next, so he hurriedly took the initiative to explain.

"Your Highness, Gu art is just a secret technique that has been passed down from generation to generation in your subordinate clan. It is usually used to treat people, and it rarely harms people. And...... Moreover, a natural disaster many years ago caused the mountain to overturn, and the villages where the tribesmen lived have been completely submerged into the earth. ”

Lin Suqing originally just wanted to sigh that the deputy general's clan was terrible, but he didn't want to scare the deputy general, thinking that he wanted to punish the clan.

However, when the adjutant general said this, he was a little puzzled: "How many others have avoided disasters like you?"

"My subordinates don't know. The adjutant general replied truthfully, "The subordinates left home to join the army, and the next year the clan was covered under the mountain." It was the court that saved the lives of his subordinates, and his subordinates spent their whole lives in the court. ”

Lin Suqing looked at the pile of black blood, the black insects in it had long since stopped wriggling and were already dead.

He looked again in the direction Ade's departure, and was really confused. How did Ade fall into this Gu?

He believed that what the adjutant was saying was the truth.

So, if what Ade said is true, it seems that Ade doesn't know when he fell into such a witch, maybe he knows, but deliberately says he doesn't know.

If Ade knew, then why did he give himself such an unbearable trick? In order to continue his life? That vomited out the Gu worm, he would not be able to live today, but at that time, seeing that his complexion was improving, he would definitely not be able to die today.

Ade is estimated to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and he is about to reach the age of establishment, which is the hurdle for Gu Po to recall. On the whole, he should belong to the latter mentioned by the adjutant general, and the effect of receiving Gu is to enhance his physique. Ade's physique is indeed very strong.

But it is also possible that Ade lied and deceived him.

There is only one thing that can be confirmed, he really saved Ade's life. This life is not for him to help Ade out of the messy grass, but to help him spit out the Gu worms in his body.

Otherwise, Ade might have been taken by the Gu Po to feed the new worms.

Although he couldn't be sure if it was the runes he drew or the random acupoints that took effect, it was indeed after he made a random gesture that Ade spit it out.

Lin Suqing thought about it, he looked at the nervous lieutenant general, and grasped the life and death of the lieutenant.

After a moment, he stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the deputy general, and said, "Don't tell a third person about today's events." Otherwise......"

"The subordinates saw nothing, heard nothing, and nothing happened. ”

"It happened. Lin Suqing suppressed his voice and said, "You have a fault of being careless." ”

"Your Highness, forgive your sins!" the adjutant general immediately knelt on the ground.

"Flatten. Return to the palace. ”

His words were a threat. Because, without fear, you can't keep a secret. Meaning, you are guilty, but I forgive you. Of course, it is possible to forgive, and naturally it is also possible to give sin. The crime of poor escort can be big or small, and the implication is tacit.

As soon as Lin Suqing stepped on the horse, he suddenly heard King Ping shouting.

"Big brother!"

The birds in the forest were frightened, and Lin Suqing was also shocked, and he almost fell down, but fortunately, the deputy general supported him.

When Lin Suqing saw King Ping, he suddenly woke up like a dream, and thought of it - that Ade has always had his own spirit, and he is not at all in awe of his prince like others. Isn't it quite similar to the casual attitude of King Ping.

Suddenly, he remembered what Ade was wearing...... He must be a relative of the emperor, and he can't be wrong!

If so, we may see you again in the future. At that time, he will definitely ask the things that he has not talked about clearly.

"Big brother, Fang is my mistake, I shouldn't be messing around, I'll compensate you. As soon as the square arrived, he turned over and dismounted and apologized to Lin Suqing.

Lin Suqing quietly glanced at the place where the Gu worms were buried by the deputy general with dirt and abandoned branches, and then glanced at King Ping reproachfully.

"It's all right, let's go. He drove the reins and made the snow treading faster.

"Big brother, I know that my eldest brother is kind-hearted and won't be angry with me!" King Ping also turned over and got on the horse.

nagging all the way complaining that today is all used to find the prince, and I didn't care about hunting, and I have to make up for it next time.

"You almost took your eldest brother's life, but now you are saying as if your eldest brother and I owe you. Lin Suqing said with cross-eyes.

King Ping immediately pretended to be stupid and laughed stupidly. didn't settle down for a while, and chattered about all kinds of rare birds and game in the mountains.

It's very heartless.
