Originally, she was still looking out of the window lazily, and there was no one to remind Xiao Jinxuan that she must be careful of all the actions of Empress Xue.

Suddenly, he heard Xiao Jinxuan say that there was really a problem with Ruyi, and immediately Zhou Xianyu was also surprised, and quickly followed the other party's gaze and looked into the rosewood box.

I saw the jade Ruyi in the wooden box, first fell twice by the carriage, and then was thrown up by Zhou Xianyu, and the force was not light and thrown in the corner of the carriage, the jade is a fragile object, so this will look at this jade Ruyi, it has long been broken into three sections.

And the jade crushing naturally did not make Xiao Jinxuan so surprised and gaffe, it was really a loss of wishful thinking, and she found that this seemingly precious mutton fat Ruyi was actually hollow inside the jade body.

Not only that, but it was also poured into a lot of silvery-white viscous liquid.

It is also for this reason that although this jade is hollow, in terms of weight alone, because it is filled with this liquid, Xiao Jinxuan did not notice that there is a problem with the weight of this jade before.

If it weren't for the fact that this wishful thinking was shattered, I'm afraid she still wouldn't be able to discover this secret.

Although Xiao Jinxuan is well-read, she is not as well-informed as Zhou Xianyu to fight in all directions, although she can see that this wishful thinking is only like this when she is passive, but she doesn't know what these liquids are.

But almost as soon as Zhou Xianyu saw these silver liquids, his face instantly became extremely ugly, and his right hand was even more full of internal force, and he directly knocked the red sandalwood box out, and immediately nervously held Xiao Jinxuan's hands and looked at them anxiously.

Although his hand was grabbed by the other party, which made Xiao Jinxuan very uncomfortable, he knew that Zhou Xianyu must have noticed something now, so he was so anxious.

So she didn't say anything, and let the other party fiddle and look at her hands, even the sleeves were lifted, she endured the embarrassment and silently cooperated with the other party.

And it wasn't until Zhou Xian's imperial general Xiao Jinxuan's arms were checked that he let out a long breath, and then pointed to the red sandalwood box that was knocked out and rolled down on the other side of the carriage, and said very angrily:

"I'll just say that this Empress Xue is evil, Xuan'er, do you know what that silver liquid is, if I'm not mistaken, that thing is simply a Gu liquid that nourishes Gu worms, when I led the troops to suppress the Miaoling area in the west, I didn't deal with Gu worms, and since there is Gu liquid in that Ruyi, there is no doubt that Gu worms must be nourished in it, I don't know what Gu Worm is going to give you after the poison, fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."

The Great Zhou is connected to the Great Liang Kingdom in the east, bordered by the Beirong Kingdom in the north, and many small countries in the south, and the west is connected to the Miao Jiang, and the Miao Jiang people have been good at using Gu techniques for generations, plus they are connected to the Great Zhou, so it is indeed not difficult for Empress Xue to get Gu things.

As for Gu techniques, Xiao Jinxuan has also seen some superficial introductions in the book, this kind of thing originates from Miao Jiang, it is extremely mysterious, and it is often divided into child and mother Gu, Yin and Yang Gu, and life and death Gu and many other types.

And the forms of Gu insects are also different, Xiao Jinxuan has seen as many as 100 kinds of hand-drawn patterns of Gu insects in a codex given to her by Meng Mian, which is really strange, and the scalp of people who look at it is numb.

Knowing that Ruyi was pretending to be a Gu worm, Xiao Jinxuan could understand why Zhou Xianyu was so nervous to check her hands, because Gu worms can allow people to burrow into their bodies through their skin without any pain.

And the skin that was drilled into by the Gu worm generally only left a shallow red spot, just now she had been holding the wooden box for a long time, not to mention that Zhou Xianyu was inevitably nervous, even Xiao Jinxuan herself was afraid.

But fortunately, Zhou Xianyu's reaction was fast enough, so the Gu worm in Ruyi had already been sent out before she could get close to her.

Knowing what it is, it is much easier to deal with it, and with Zhou Xianyu by her side, Xiao Jinxuan is also a lot more stable in her heart, at least with the other party's protection, a little Gu worm, it is impossible to hurt her when you think about it.

Immediately looked at Zhou Xianyu, who was angry with an angry face, obviously by Xue Hou's hand, Xiao Jinxuan gently pulled down his sleeve, and then said with a light smile:

"Xianyu, don't be angry, Empress Xue's mother and son have even done the things of kidnapping and assassination, forcing the fall off the cliff, and it's not strange to give me a Gu, now that we have seen through her conspiracy first, can you help me get that Gu worm out, once you know what kind of Gu the other party is, I think I may be able to speculate on what Empress Xue's next plan is, and then we will strike first, maybe we can hit the other party hard."

Rubbing her head a little helplessly, seeing that Xiao Jinxuan knew that there was a Gu worm in front of her, and she could still calmly plan her next plan, Zhou Xianyu immediately didn't know whether to be happy or worried about her boldness.

He had never seen any woman, as bold as Xiao Jinxuan, and now that the other party even wanted to study Gu worms, Zhou Xianyu really felt like he couldn't cry or laugh for a moment.

However, I knew that even if I took this ruyi and returned to the palace and Xue Hou theory, the other party also had countless reasons, and deduced that this thing was not put in by her.

Even the capital crime of mining black iron, with the help of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhou Xiantai can be safe and sound, Zhou Xianyu really doesn't think that a Gu worm with an inexplicable origin can bring Xue Hou down.

Immediately took a deep breath, since the theory of entering the palace is useless, then he should cooperate with Xiao Jinxuan and study this Gu worm.

If you can really find out Empress Xue's intentions, she can really catch the other party off guard, at least she won't let her succeed in her treacherous scheme.

Therefore, seeing Zhou Xianyu, he immediately took out a brand-new one from his waist, and then got up and came to the front of the wooden box, and used the tip of the knife to find the Gu worm in the silver liquid inside Ruyi.

It didn't take long for Zhou Xianyu's hand to move suddenly, and then he snorted lightly, and then with the tip of the knife, he held a Gu insect the size of a red bean with a knife and carefully handed it to Xiao Jinxuan.

Because he had dealt with the Miao Jiang people, Zhou Xianyu still knew how to deal with Gu arts, and immediately saw him reminding him with caution:

"Xuan'er, just look at it like this, don't put your hand too close to this thing, although I don't know this kind of Gu, but the Gu worm that has always been raised in the liquid is generally separated from the Gu liquid, if you can't find the host in time, it will die quickly, so don't look at it motionless now, that's me dipped in some Gu liquid to warm it, and when the silver liquid on the back of this knife is sucked clean by it, this thing will be ready to move."

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan was busy and curious, and looked at the red Gu worm.

Sure enough, I saw that the silver liquid was sucked up by this Gu worm at a slow speed, and after a little effort, the liquid that Zhou Xianyu had stained on the back of the knife was almost devoured.

And seeing that as soon as the Gu worm left the Gu liquid, it immediately moved slowly twice, Zhou Xianyu's eyes flashed with disgust, and his left hand secretly used internal strength, wanting to directly shock this evil thing into powder.

But when Xiao Jinxuan saw that he was about to make a move, she immediately hurriedly said:

"Xianyu, don't be in a hurry to kill this Gu worm first, since there is Gu liquid to raise, it will be quiet, then you better put it back in the wooden box first, I want to take it back to the Shuai Mansion."

Shocked to hear this, Zhou Xianyu almost fell to the ground, he didn't dare to take it lightly in the face of Gu worms, Xiao Jinxuan was not only not afraid, but also wanted to take it back to Forsythia Courtyard, such a dangerous thing, he would not allow the other party to do it.

Seeing that Zhou Xianyu didn't agree, before the other party could speak, Xiao Jinxuan took the first step to speak:

"Xianyu, don't worry, I have some unique books in my hand, I may be able to find a record about this Gu, and although I don't have your martial arts, I know that fire is the nemesis of Gu things, if I can't figure out this Gu worm before this Gu liquid is exhausted, then I will burn it directly, and I won't hurt myself in the slightest."

Empress Xue took such great pains to send this Gu to her, if she didn't understand the reason inside, Xiao Jinxuan would not be at ease after all.

And she has also read a lot of records about the fierce Gu, but this kind of Gu in front of her does not have too strong attack power at first glance, so what is Empress Xue's intention, she is even more curious.

Now the entry point that can start the investigation is all on this Gu worm, Xiao Jinxuan's temperament, after being reborn, is quite persevering, and she will not give up easily if she doesn't work hard until the last moment.

That's why she planned to take the live Gu back, and then find out the use of this Gu as much as possible when there was a physical object as a reference, so that she could better deal with Empress Xue's next movements, and not be too passive and clueless to let others calculate.

Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan's expression was resolute, and even the last method of burning the Gu worm had been thought through, Zhou Xianyu knew that what he was saying was useless, so he had no choice but to put the red Gu worm back into the wooden box according to his words.

However, for the sake of insurance, he immediately tore off a piece of brocade clothes from himself, and used the fabric on the clothes to carefully wrap the rosewood box several times, and then reluctantly handed it to Xiao Jinxuan.

"Xuan'er, any decision you make, as long as you think it's right, I will support you, but this thing is dangerous after all, you have to promise me that you must not hurt yourself, otherwise I won't let you mess around next time."

nodded, Xiao Jinxuan took over the wooden box, Zhou Xianyu's compromise, she knew that it was not that the other party was afraid of her, so she had to retreat.

And what this contains is actually trust and respect, and these were never given to her by anyone in her previous life, although Xiao Jinxuan's expression did not change, she felt unusually warm in her heart.

It took a lot of time to study the Gu worms, and not long after, the carriage stopped in front of the Shuaifu.

Originally, Zhou Xianyu was not at ease, and wanted to accompany Xiao Jinxuan directly in, and he personally stared at the Gu worms, and helped the other party to consult the classics together, so that not only would the efficiency be improved a lot, but he didn't have to worry about being uneasy.

But for this proposal, Xiao Jinxuan politely refused, after all, Zhou Xianyu had just returned to Beijing, and he also had a lot of things to do, not to mention that the Bai family was still in the Shuai Mansion now, and they were always embarrassed by her.

If these are known by Zhou Xianyu, according to the other party's temperament, it must make a big deal out of it, the Guogong Mansion has deep roots, Xiao Jinxuan just wants to force the old lady away, but she has never thought of forcing the other party to death directly.

Therefore, Zhou Xianyu's arbitrary and reckless temperament is really not suitable to enter the mansion with her now, and finally persuaded the other party, Xiao Jinxuan held the wooden box alone and entered the gate of the Shuai Mansion after saying goodbye.

And almost as soon as she returned to the forsythia courtyard, Wen Xin immediately greeted her, and said with a low smile:

"Jinxuan, you are back, there is an old man who has been waiting for you for a long time, this will be in the living room with tea, if you see each other, you will definitely be pleasantly surprised."
