Chapter 20: Abolish Gu Gong, King of Ten Thousand Gus
"A dead duck has a hard mouth, and he won't die if he doesn't reach the heart of the Yellow River, right?" Li Zi said sarcastically, "I just like your hard bones." ”
Li Zi took out a few yellow talismans, and with words in her mouth, the yellow talisman flew to Bai Xinlian's body, and in an instant, an unspeakable sharp pain began to spread from all over her body, and she couldn't stop wailing in pain, and finally fell to the ground and kept rubbing.
"Are you still hard-mouthed?" Li Zi squatted down and looked down at Bai Xinlian, whose face was distorted due to pain.
Bai Xinlian's smooth forehead, cold sweat was dripping, her face turned pale from pain, and she fell weakly in the formation and shook her head.
Li Zi snapped her fingers, and in an instant, the pain on Bai Xinlian's body dissipated like a tide, and it didn't hurt in an instant, she lay on the ground, staring at Li Zi with resentful eyes, and the hatred in her heart was monstrous.
"Tell me honestly, who is that guy behind you?" Li Zi didn't talk nonsense with her, and went straight to the point.
"Yes...... An old man. Bai Xinlian's eyelids drooped slightly, and she collected resentment into her eyes, she knew her current situation, so she had to tell the truth, otherwise she would not be able to eat and walk around now, "I ...... At that time, I was in a very bad mood because of the marriage contract, so when I was passing by an overpass, I met the old man, and he said that he could help me fulfill my wish, and the reward was 10 million, and I agreed. ”
"Do you know where he's staying now?" Li Zi narrowed her eyes and continued to ask.
"I ......" Bai Xinlian originally wanted to say that she didn't know, but under the eyes of Li Zi, she unconsciously confided in the old man's hiding place.
"I'll leave her to you, and I'll deal with the old man." Li Zi walked out of the door of the ward and faced Qi Jintang and Lou Qingxue outside the door.
"Then it's tiring, after the matter is completed, the reward will be paid to Miss Li's account." Qi Jintang bowed slightly, her beautiful face was full of gratitude, if it weren't for Li Zi's action this time, I was afraid that she would have died a long time ago, and her cousin would not have gotten better.
"I'll go first." Li Zi waved his hand and left the hospital with his feet raised, ready to go home to catch up on sleep.
Qi Jintang and Lou Qingxue, the two women, stood in place and watched her disappearing into the elevator, and then there was an intermittent coughing sound in the ward, and a familiar clear voice sounded, "Ahem...... Bai Xinlian didn't expect you to be so vicious...... Ahem. ”
Qi Jintang rushed into the house with joy in his eyes, and saw that Qi Yuanzhi, who was asleep on the hospital bed, had already held on to the railing of the hospital bed, and sat up by himself, although his face was still pale, he saw that his spirit was in good condition, "Brother, you are awake." ”
Qi Yuanzhi covered his mouth and coughed, and when he heard this, his eyes moved away from Bai Xinlian, who was lying on the ground in the formation, and looked at his cousin, with a shallow smile on his face, "It's troublesome for Jintang to take care of me during this time." ”
In the courtyard, Li Zi woke up, the sky outside had darkened, she grabbed her mobile phone and looked at the time, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, and the time was about the same.
Li Zi stood up and stretched, went to the bathroom to wash her face with cold water, and the person instantly sobered up a little, she glanced at the silver bell on her wrist, "Nine-tails senior, haven't you heard you much recently?" As he spoke, he walked towards the door.
"I'm in retreat, so I don't have time to chat." The lazy voice of the Nine-Tails came from the bell.
"Nine-Tails senior is really hardworking, it seems that I can't relax anymore." Li Zi hooked her lips and smiled, and as she passed the courtyard, she was stopped by an old and hoarse voice, which made her stop.
It was none other than someone else who called her, it was Gu Lao who went back to the courtyard with her not long ago, since Grandma Li chased Gu Lao with a broom and drove eighteen streets, she didn't care about the pigeon release from him back then, so Gu Lao also lived in the courtyard and settled here.
At first, Grandma Li still disliked him a little, saying that he was also a handsome guy when he was young, and he was also an old handsome guy when he was old, but his face was blue and purple, which was comparable to disfigurement.
Gu Lao silently locked himself in the house for three days, and when he came out three days later, the traces on his face were gone, and he recovered his previous appearance, a proper old handsome guy, but Grandma Li saw something, took the pulse for him, and then the tears flowed uncontrollably.
"I'm just talking, I don't really dislike you, you don't have to." Grandma Li felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she had been looking for this person in front of her for most of her life, and finally found him, because of his jokes, he abolished the Gu Gong he was proud of, this is the ability he relies on to survive, and now because of his own words, he doesn't have to do it.
"It's okay, Ajiao." Gu Lao looked at Grandma Li with gentle eyes, "I used to be obsessed with this, and my body was already destroyed a lot, but now that I have abolished this body's Gu Gong, my body is lighter and more comfortable, and besides, isn't there still you, a doctor with excellent medical skills, by my side, I think Ah Jiao must have a way to take care of my body, isn't it?" ”
"Well, I will definitely do it, staring at you every day, if any old thing dares to bully you, see that I don't blow his dog's head." Grandma Li snuggled in Gu Lao's arms and said coquettishly.
Gu Lao saw that Grandma Li had regained her youthful temperament, and a soft smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Grandma Li's temper was very delicate and fiery when she was young, until she met Gu Lao, her temper was restricted, and then something happened, so that she had to put Jiao Barbarian away, and people became calm, it has been so many years, and now she is with Gu Lao again, and the delicate and brute strength that she retracted when she was young was unconsciously revealed in front of him, this is also what Gu Lao wants to see most now, he knows that Grandma Li has suffered a lot over the years, I also want to spoil her back to the delicate her before.
Hearing this, Li Zi turned around and walked towards Gu Lao, she looked at him with puzzled eyes, "Is there something wrong with the senior?" ”
Gu Lao put the watering scoop into the bucket, and looked at Li Zi kindly with a pair of vicissitudes of wisdom and wisdom, "Go out so late, the girl's family should pay attention to safety, and the journey will be safe." As he spoke, he untied a bamboo tube from his waist and stuffed it to Li Zi, and there was also a peculiar bone whistle by the way.
"Hope this gadget can help you, go ahead!" Gu Lao told Li Zi, then turned around and left, and went into the house.
Li Zi took the bamboo tube and bone whistle stuffed by Gu Lao, and stood in place for a while, just at this time Grandma Li passed by the yard with a medicine bowl, she has been treating the internal injuries left by Gu Lao in the past few days, and at a glance she caught a glimpse of her granddaughter standing in the yard holding a bamboo tube in a daze, her eyes moved slightly, "He gives it to you, you can take it!" Don't be embarrassed. ”
"Then grandma, I'm out." Li Zi heard her grandmother say this, and the unnatural feeling of being so embarrassed in her heart was gone, she put away the bamboo tube and bone whistle, said hello to her grandmother and went out.
"Stay safe at night." Grandma Li raised her voice and admonished.
"Got it." The man had disappeared in the doorway, but the echo had come back from not far away.
Grandma Li shook her head and entered the house with the medicine bowl, and Gu Lao was sitting in front of the TV, watching variety shows and passing the time.
He saw Grandma Li enter the house, holding a steaming bowl in her hand and exuding a strange bitter taste, his brows furrowed, and his face was full of the word resistance in capital letters, this taste is really ...... It's sour, it's too bitter.
"Ah Jiao, can we have a discussion......" Gu Lao swallowed his saliva, trying to convince Grandma Li.
"It's not negotiable." Grandma Li's eyes were horizontal, and the staring Gu Lao shrank his neck, he wrinkled his nose, took the medicine bowl, closed his eyes, drank it all, and suffered less as soon as possible.
"You gave that thing to Li Zi, didn't you feel reluctant in your heart? At least staying with you protects you. Grandma Li sat beside Gu Lao and asked in a low voice.
"If I want to break it, I will naturally break it clean, and it is useless to leave that thing with me, so give it to Li Zi as a meeting gift! Besides, don't I still have you by my side? Gu Lao looked at Grandma Li with a smile, his eyes soft.
"Ugh." Grandma Li sighed, grabbed Gu Lao's thin hand, and was silent.
said that after Li Zi went out, he went straight to the address reported by Bai Xinlian.
The old man's hiding place was in a very remote basement on the outskirts of the city, which was the territory that the Bai family had bought a long time ago, and few people set foot on it, so it was the best hiding place.
The Didi driver pulled Li Zi to a distance of 500 meters from her destination, but refused to pull her, Li Zi had to pay to leave, anyway, 500 meters was a piece of cake for her.
The moonlight tonight is still good, and Li Zi took advantage of the faint moonlight to head towards his destination.
In the wilderness, a petite figure shrunk into an inch and walked forward, if it was seen by someone I was afraid that it would be scared to death, fortunately at night, there was no one here, and Li Zi would not hide it, how to come.
It took Li Zi more than ten minutes to successfully find the basement that Bai Xinlian said, she skillfully took out the yellow talisman and arranged several formations on it, and then slowly lifted the cement slab bricks that covered the basement.
After opening, a step facing down was revealed, Li Zi stepped on the steps, walked down, and it didn't take long for a little faint light to meet her eyes, her eyes moved slightly, and her body was much faster.
At this moment, Li Zi may have been alarmed by something, countless dense insects crawled towards her frantically, and there was a tendency to drown her in it, she casually threw a few ignition charms over, but the effect was not great, those insects were too many.
In desperation, Li Zi remembered that when she went out, Gu Lao handed her the bamboo tube and bone whistle, she took out the bone whistle and blew it, a cool and small sound came from the bone whistle, and thousands of crawling insects on the ground paused, and then continued to surge towards her.
At that time, there was a lot of movement in the bamboo tube, the lid was opened by a white and fat, waving two giant claws of the big bug, the two tentacles on the top of its head moved several times, as if receiving information in the air, the next moment it opened the slightly transparent wings on its back, flew to the chestnut, and screamed a few times towards those dense insects, those insects seemed to have encountered some natural enemies, around it, crawling fast, including chestnut behind it.
