Chapter 477: Body Devouring Gu
Cen Ling'er swallowed her saliva, and as the book said, she cut her fingers with a knife and dripped her own blood on the centipede's head.
The centipede smelled blood and looked unusually excited. After that, those Gu worms also absorbed Cen Ling'er's blood.
Just as Cen Ling'er's last drop of blood was dripping, the centipede suddenly crawled onto Cen Ling'er's hand. Cen Ling'er's arm trembled slightly, she knew that if she was bitten by a centipede at this time, she would die.
So, she was a little nervous. However, the centipede seemed to have drunk her blood, so it didn't want to bite her at all, but crawled down its arm to Cen Ling'er's shoulder, and Cen Ling'er turned his head sideways and looked at the centipede. The centipede seemed to be looking at Cen Ling'er as well, and Cen Ling'er was a little nervous by the centipede and closed her eyes tightly. At this time, the centipede took the opportunity to crawl on her face at once, Cen Ling'er just wanted to scream, but the centipede crawled into her mouth.
Cen Ling'er's eyes widened suddenly, and the centipede had already entered Cen Ling'er's mouth. Cen Ling'er felt very nauseous, so she began to vomit, and she vomited out of dinner, but she didn't see the centipede. And Cen Ling'er's eyes were full of tears, and she coughed softly.
After a while, Cen Ling'er's eyes began to blur, as if she was hallucinating, dizzy, as if she had drunk too much. Cen Ling'er screamed in her heart, she seemed to be poisoned.
Could it be that she failed, she was poisoned by a centipede, is tonight her last day in this world?
Cen Ling'er swayed into the dresser, just raised her head, and saw herself.
She was almost frightened by her appearance, her face was pale, and her lips were already blue. She was looking at her fingers, and the nails were the color of bruises.
She smiled bitterly, it turned out that everything she had done was a talisman made for herself.
Tonight, I ended my life like this, hehe!
Thinking of this, Cen Ling'er rolled her eyes and fainted to the ground.
And when Cen Ling'er woke up, she was already lying on the bed. She thought she might just go, but she didn't expect to wake up.
However, who carried herself to the bed, her last consciousness seemed to have fallen to the ground.
Also, what if the jar containing those Gu worms was discovered?
At this time, the maidservant girl walked in and saw Cen Ling'er waking up, so she asked nervously: "Miss, you are awake, the lord and the lady, and the third lady are all worried about death." ”
Cen Ling'er opened her mouth slightly, only to hear her ask in a hoarse voice, "What's wrong with me?" ”
"Miss, you've been dizzy for three days. The burning face was red, and the slave was so frightened that he hurried to find the lady and find you a doctor. It's been three days, and the fever has subsided, but you still won't wake up. The servant girl whispered.
After finishing speaking, he handed Cen Ling'er a cup of hot water.
After Cen Ling'er took a sip of water, she said, "What did the doctor say?" ”
"The doctor just said that you may be too tired and suddenly have a fever and don't know why. By the way, when you fainted, there was an empty pickle jar beside you, and the slave didn't know what you were going to do with the jar, so she put it for you. The maidservant said earnestly.
"Empty jars?" Cen Ling'er looked puzzled, what about the Gu worms in the jar? How could it be empty, could it be said to have run away?
"Yes, the jar is empty. Miss, you drink the medicine first, and the slave and maid will go to report to the lord and the lady, you have woken up. The maid brought the medicine over, and after Cen Ling'er drank it, the maid went out.
Cen Ling'er had no strength and lay down again.
She still didn't quite understand, where were those Gu worms, and what about the centipede? I am obviously a manifestation of poisoning, why can't the doctor diagnose it? So, what's wrong with your body?
As soon as she thought of this, she felt something itchy in her ears, as if something was burrowing out.
When she looked closely, it turned out to be the centipede crawling out of her ear.
She looked at the centipede, and the centipede was looking at her, as if waiting for her commands. The corners of Cen Ling'er's mouth rose, is this a success? So, after thinking about it, she said to the centipede on a whim: "Where are those Gu worms?" ”
The centipede seemed to really understand Cen Ling'er's words, so it crawled to the ground, and then crawled in the direction of the jar. Cen Ling'er looked puzzled, the maidservant girl said that the altar was empty, how could this centipede run near the altar?
Cen Ling'er had no choice, so she had to get up and walk to the front of the altar, and after opening the jar, she found that the Gu insects were staying in the altar well, and she was surprised to find that the color of those Gu insects seemed to be very similar to centipedes. With a slight smile, he put away the jar and put it under his bed. Just as she was about to study the books, she heard a voice outside the door. So, she hurried back to the bed, covered it with the quilt, and the centipede crawled down her ears into her body.
There was a knock on the door, and then someone said, "Ling'er, I heard that you woke up, and your aunt and I came to see you, I don't know if it's inconvenient?" ”
"Mother, auntie, come in." Cen Ling'er said weakly.
Because Cen Ling'er's voice was hoarse, she looked like she was seriously ill.
After Mrs. Shangshu and the third lady entered the house, they saw Cen Ling'er lying in bed.
Cen Ling'er's face was still pale, but the color of her lips was no longer bruised. It's just that it gives people a pitiful look.
The third lady said distressedly: "Ling'er, what else is uncomfortable with you?" How could I suddenly have a fever? ”
Cen Ling'er said slowly: "Auntie, isn't Ling'er awake?" Xu caught a cold at night, and now that the fever has subsided, it should be fine, don't worry. ”
Mrs. Shangshu sighed, and then said, "Look, what am I talking about? I have already told your father not to write any more sutras from this day on. You have been taking good care of it for the past few days, and I have also instructed my subordinates to make you some warm and tonic medicinal food. I see you've lost weight when you come back, but that's not okay. ”
Cen Ling'er smiled slightly, and then said, "Thank you for your mother's concern, Ling'er is really fine." ”
"Okay, you can listen to your mother this time." The third lady said softly.
After Mrs. Shangshu and the third lady left, Cen Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief.
After Mrs. Shangshu and the third lady returned to the courtyard, Mrs. Shangshu saw that the third lady was worried, so she said, "Third lady, Ling'er is on fire." If you think about it, Ling'er originally lived in the palace, but she was suddenly sent back, you think, she must be in a bad mood. And we saw that although Ling'er kept a smile on her face before, she must have been sad and blamed herself in her heart. Moreover, Ling'er is very filial. She couldn't bear to worry us, so she didn't let us know anything. If you have time, you should go and see Ling'er more, but don't mention your previous life. ”
Mrs. Shangshu thought of Cen Ling'er's stubbornness, even if she was sad and sad, she would not let them see it.
And she knows the third lady very well, presumably every time the third lady goes to see Ling'er, Ling'er will let go of the past. You must know that things that have passed are always mentioned in Ling'er's ears, and they will definitely be affected.
The third lady nodded, and then said, "Perhaps, Ling'er fainted with a fever this time, and it really has something to do with me." It's all because I shouldn't always mention the previous things, perhaps, the more this happens, the more Ling'er can't think about it. ”
"Well, it's good that you know, don't mention it in the future, so that Ling'er's heart will be burdened again. After Ling'er is well, I will talk to the master and see if there is any suitable candidate for her. I think it would be better if she married and started a new life. Mrs. Shangshu said for Cen Ling'er.
"Everything is up to my sister. Ling'er is my heart disease, I just hope she can open her heart and not torture herself like this. The third lady had no idea, so she listened to what Mrs. Shangshu said.
After the two of them finished chatting, Mrs. Shangshu told Lord Shangshu about it, and Lord Shangshu didn't feel good after hearing it, and only answered and didn't say anything more.
Because, Lord Shang Shu had long been affected by Cen Ling'er's words last time, and this time Cen Ling'er fainted, he took it for granted that it was Cen Ling'er who was held back in his heart because of his grievances, which caused him to fall ill. Therefore, he did not agree to Mrs. Shangshu's proposal. If Ti Ling'er picks a husband now, it will make Ling'er even more aggrieved. The reason why Ling'er fell ill was because of the heart disease that came out. He knew how wronged Ling'er was, it was obviously Yun Guifei's fault, but he only punished Ling'er. Moreover, Ye Tianmo already had a plan to send Ling'er back, so maybe this is just a way for Ye Tianmo to plan up. Doing so only hurts their family's spirits.
And since Ling'er returned to the mansion, he has never been worried. Listening to Mrs. Shangshu and the third lady, every time she saw Cen Ling'er, she was very well-behaved, and her face was full of smiles. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid those smiles are all illusions, and it was Cen Ling'er who didn't want them to worry about the elders that would let them see their smiles. In fact, her heart is very aggrieved, and if she holds it for too long, people will not be able to stand it. Ling'er suddenly fainted and had a high fever, and even the doctor didn't know what caused her fever.
Lord Shangshu felt very sorry for Cen Ling'er, and he hated Ye Tianmo's approach more and more. And what made him even more annoyed was that Yun Guifei, that woman was actually in the palace as if nothing had happened, which was really disgusting.
Lord Shangshu left the main courtyard and unknowingly walked to the Hibiscus Garden.
He thought about it for a moment and went into the courtyard.
After the maidservant reported to Cen Ling'er, Master Shangshu entered the house.
Cen Ling'er smiled slightly, and then said, "Father, why are you here?" ”
"Is Ling'er better?" Master Shangshu said gently.
Cen Ling'er said softly: "The fever has subsided, and besides, Ling'er is fine, it is the mother and aunt who made a big fuss and harmed the father who is so worried." ”
Lord Shangshu hurriedly said, "How can this be a big fuss? Not only did you faint but you also had a high fever, and if no one found out, wouldn't it burn out your brain? ”
Lord Shangshu was distressed when he thought about it, and he looked at Cen Ling'er with a little guilt on his face.
"Ling'er is fine now, but her voice is still a little hoarse." Cen Ling'er said softly.
