"Granny Gu?" He Xi looked at the woman with some curiosity.

The woman smiled and said, "Actually, we don't know what her real name is, but because she came out of the Worm Valley, and she doesn't have any relatives, everyone calls her Granny Gu." ”

He Xi has an intuition that this Gu mother-in-law will get secrets that she doesn't know.

The two took their things to the east of the village, in a somewhat dilapidated courtyard, and the woman walked to the wooden gate, and saw an old man with gray hair sitting in the courtyard, facing the direction of the worm valley, and did not know what she was thinking.

He Xi and the woman glanced at each other, Dong'er obviously played in the village from time to time, so she smiled and said, "Granny Gu, my mother and I have come to see you." ”

Granny Gu listened to the sound sideways, then got up, He Xi noticed that although she couldn't see with her eyes, and the coarse cloth clothes on her body were washed and white, looking down, but when she got up, she still habitually used her hands to support the hem of her clothes.

He Xi narrowed her eyes slightly, and Granny Gu said, "What's the matter, there are guests again?" ”

As he spoke, he nodded in the direction of He Xi, He Xi didn't say a word the whole time, but Granny Gu knew about He Xi's existence, it seems that although this mother-in-law can't see with her eyes, her ear power is outstanding.

The woman pushed open the old wooden door, made a screeching grinding sound, and then asked Dong'er to send the things she brought into the house, and then introduced with a smile: "Granny Gu, this girl heard that you are from the Worm Valley and wanted to ask you something, so I took the liberty to bring someone." ”

Hearing the woman say this, Granny Gu smiled, but there was no warmth in that smile, she sighed and said, "It's okay, if there is nothing to do, you won't come to see my old woman, sit down." ”

He Xi and the woman looked at each other, and the corner of the woman's mouth pulled up a wry smile, which is why, at first, she didn't want to bring He Xi here, because this Gu mother-in-law is famous in the village for her bad temper, but now she is willing to sit down with He Xi and have a good talk, but it is also beyond her expectations.

He Xi sat down and said straight to the point: "Granny Gu, we came this time to want to know some things about the Worm Valley. ”

Granny Gu was not in a hurry to answer her, she stretched out her hand to touch He Xi, the skin of her hand became old and wrinkled because of the years, and the green tendons could be faintly seen under the skin, but the nails were very neat and clean, Ruyi frowned and wanted to reach out to stop her, but she was stopped by He Xi with her eyes, she let Granny Gu touch her face, and suddenly Granny Gu sighed, and her face became colorful.

He Xi's face did not move, but he gradually understood it in his heart, and they all said that blind people will roughly confirm people's appearance by touching people's facial bones.

But what she looks like—

Granny Gu touched it for a long time before she sighed: "Impossible, how can there be no scars at all, is it—is it—"

Her face was filled with joy, and then fell silent again, as if she felt that her thoughts were impossible, and the joy dissipated.

Dong'er Niang was stunned, and Granny Gu suddenly sat up straight and said, "The girl's life experience is not simple, what is the Miao Domain Worm Valley doing?" Do you want to go into the valley too? ”

He Xi noticed that she said yes, at first when they stood outside the door, she said that there were guests again, but now is not the time to dwell on this matter, He Xi said: "Help." ”

Granny Gu sighed, and a look of disdain appeared on her face again, and she sneered lightly: "Now, the Gu King lineage can't even control his own people? Is it harmful to let it out? It's really pitiful, if the old Gu King is still there, I don't know if I'm ashamed to find a hole to get into, hahaha-"

There was a hint of hatred and mockery on her face, and her lifeless voice was rough and ugly, as if something was rustling against her eardrums.

He Xi tilted his head and said, "Mother-in-law knows the Gu King? ”

Granny Gu nodded and said, "Not only do I know, but these eyes of mine are also thanks to him, as well as the young lady and the young master-"

Saying that, she seemed to remember something sad, waved her hand and said: "Don't say it, don't say it, it's all old things, anyway, the old woman's time is running out, the only regret is that I didn't see them punished." ”

Xu was too excited, she actually coughed, He Xi was busy with a cup of tea and handed it to her aunt, and Granny Gu took a sip of her hand before suppressing the cough.

She gasped for breath before she said slowly: "Since you said that you were saving lives, who are you saving, but that person is also here?" The old woman has been in the Miao Domain for more than ten years, you bring people, if you can, you don't have to risk going to the place where you eat people and don't spit out bones. ”

He Xi and Ruyi were both overjoyed, and Ruyi hurriedly said, "The slave maid went to bring Miss Ah Li." ”

The two families are not far away, and after a while, Ruyi came back with Ah Li, and Granny Gu didn't expect that it was a female doll that was only a month old.

Granny Gu's voice was trembling: "They are simply - they are simply inhuman, to attack such a young child - the Gu King is really in decline!" ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Ruyi and said, "Give me the child, I'll take a look." ”

Ruyi put the child in Granny Gu's hand with great anticipation, Granny Gu first got closer, sniffed it, and the woman said curiously: "Mother-in-law, what are you doing?" ”

Granny Gu's subordinates didn't stop, and she stripped Xiao Ali of her essence in three or two times, put it in swaddling clothes, and then reached out and touched it little by little.

Then he said solemnly: "No matter what kind of Gu worm, it has a smell, of course you can't smell it, but the old woman can smell it." ”

After speaking, it didn't matter whether He Xi and the woman understood it or not, they stopped talking, but seriously touched Ah Li's muscles and bones little by little.

Xiao Ah Li was not afraid of people, giggling and waving his arms, and suddenly Granny Gu's hand stopped at Ah Li's eyes.

She took a deep breath, put down her hand a little dejectedly, and hurriedly wrapped Xiao Ali in her arms, and then she sighed and said: "Girl, it's not that the old woman doesn't help you, the old woman thought that although these people were crazy, even if they hurt people's lives, they just used some ordinary Gu worms, but the Gu worms on this child are not." ”

He Xi's heart sank slowly, and she smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm just holding the mentality of trying, and I want to thank my mother-in-law." ”

Granny Gu said: "However, for this Gu worm, I also know something, this Gu worm is called Bone Eclipse, it is a single transmission of the Gu King's lineage, it is not easy to refine, the old woman doesn't know who you offended the Gu King's lineage, but you can put Gu on a child, this person is extremely insidious, if you can enter the Worm Valley this time, you must also be very careful." ”

He Xi nodded, and remembered that Granny Gu couldn't see it, so she said, "What do you mean, mother-in-law?" ”

Granny Gu took a long breath and said, "But fortunately, you found it in time, this Gu worm is a little weak, if the old woman is not mistaken, it is not an adult yet, if it grows up, I am afraid it will not be like this." ”

She suddenly took out a handkerchief wrapped object from her arms, handed it to He Xi and said: "This child is destined for me, I can't see it, and she can't see it, but fortunately, she still has a chance to see the light again, so I'll leave this thing to you, maybe at a critical moment, I can help you once." ”

He Xi opened it and saw a handkerchief, a corner of a plain white handkerchief, embroidered with a line of small characters: Ten years of life and death, unforgettable.

The handwriting is beautiful, and at first glance it is from a woman's hand, He Xi doesn't know why Granny Gu said this, and what her identity is.

Before He Xi could ask clearly, Granny Gu got up and walked towards the door step by step, humming an unknown ballad softly. Tonight hooked the lovesick debt, and the infinite spring breeze was full of arms.

She muttered in her mouth, it was clearly a cheerful tune, but at this time there was an inexplicable feeling and pathos, and suddenly Granny Gu laughed and said, "Okay, okay, miss, the old woman is coming to accompany you." ”

Everyone present looked at each other, especially Dong'er Niang, seeing that the second monk was confused, she pulled the corner of He Xi's clothes and said, "Girl, Granny Gu is a little weird like this, let's go." ”

He Xi nodded, got up and left the courtyard, and inside the door, Granny Gu stood upright, leaving muddy tears in her eyes, which had already lost their brilliance, she slowly leaned over, and cried bitterly, like a child, she said to herself: "Miss, do you have a spirit in the sky, otherwise why would you let this girl come to me, the art of rebirth, is there a descendant of the Rong family in this world?" ”

But no matter what she said, no one answered her.

On the other side, in the palace of the Great Calendar, there was a person who quickly entered the palace, only saying that it was an urgent report from Xiliang.

The palace people guarding the door did not dare to delay, and hurriedly handed over the news, and at the same time, in the capital Xiao Tian's mansion, there was also a person who hurriedly entered the mansion.

In less than a stick of incense, Xiao Tian asked for a decree to enter the palace, and Tuoba Yue summoned Zhang Minyuan, Xu Shao and other important ministers into the upper study.

And there is another person, who also quietly entered Beijing, but he did not have an urgent report, but flashed the token in his hand to the palace people, and the palace people saw the token and knelt down busily.

Yue Qi collected the token, and then went from the path of the palace to the direction of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

At this time, in the Jiayu Palace, Xiao Nai stiffened with an ugly face and said, "What, father, but really?" ”

Xiao Tian's face was not much better than Xiao Nai's, he nodded again and again: "The news is from the tortoiseshell, I think it's true, I have already sent someone to Miao Domain, once you see her, you can rest assured." ”

"Uncle, who is this going to kill?" A cold voice came from behind, the cold Xiao Nai almost shivered, she subconsciously stepped forward and said with a smile: "Why is Your Majesty here?" ”

As she spoke, she looked at the palace people in the courtyard, only to see that they all shrank their heads one by one, not daring to look at her.

Tuoba Yue lifted his robe, the bright yellow corners of the robe drew a graceful arc in the air, although he was sitting, he already had the momentum of looking at the world.
