Chapter 56: Water Gu

Officer Fang and I were tortured to death by the white transparent striped worms in this quagmire, and we were almost dead, but fortunately, the old thing brought us out of the quagmire in time, and the man in Mai also let the golden cicada Gu drill into our bodies at the same time, forcing all those bugs out, which can be regarded as saving a life

The man in Mai deserves to be a top-notch Gu master, and he has cleaned up all these bugs as soon as he makes a move, and then he quickly walked up to me and Officer Fang, and each stuffed a pill into our mouths

I thought my feet and legs would have countless black holes or rotten sores, but when I looked down, I found that my lower body was intact, and there were no wounds except for a lot of mud

I hurriedly went to look at Officer Fang's body again, and found that she was the same as me, without any wounds on her body, and her skin was still extremely smooth and white, and there was no trace of insects at all.

However, she was in a deep coma at the moment, and her whole face was white and frightening, but judging from her expression, it was obvious that she was much calmer

Mai said that she was in a deep coma due to excessive fatigue and hunger and panic, and that she would be fine as long as she had a good rest and something to eat.

After listening to the words of the Mai man, my hanging heart was settled, so I immediately beckoned the third prince to take care of Officer Fang, and I and the people who came up one after another surrounded the Mai man and asked what was going on with this worm

The man in sackcloth immediately picked up a worm from the ground to show us, and then I could see the appearance of the worm clearly, and saw that the body of the worm was almost completely transparent, but there were several very thin red lines surging under the epidermis of its body, and both ends of its body were pointed, and it was impossible to tell which side was the head and which side was the tail, and there was no mouth or eyes, and the whole looked like a soft glass glue stick

The man in Mai pointed to the body of this insect and told us that this insect is called schistosomiasis, also known as schizoid fluke, which is a parasite that transmits chronic germs.

This kind of parasite is called Shui Gu in the Gu cultivation world, and the reason why it is called Shui Gu is because this kind of worm is generally parasitic in the human bladder and urethra, or in infected water, that is, in water infected by germs.

Once a person's skin comes into contact with the plague water, schistosoma will immediately burrow into it and thus parasitize in the body, so the Gu cultivation world has always had "water poisonous gas condenses inside, making the abdomen grow larger...... Hence the name Shui Gu also".

For people who have been hit by water Gu, the initial symptoms are numbness, itching, fever, nausea, cough, chest pain, etc.; Over time, a lump may appear in the hypochondrium and fluid will distangle in the abdomen, which can be extremely serious

The incubation period of water Gu varies, but most of the middle Gu people will show symptoms within 30-60 days, but at this time, it is the period when schistosoma is laying eggs in large quantities, and the catervae in the eggs produce a large number of antigens to the host, resulting in a sharp increase in the level of host antibodies, and in the case of excess antigens, antigen-antibody complexes are formed, thereby destroying the body's immunity and causing sero-like syndrome

There is also a group of people who will react in about 20 days after being hit by Shui Gu, and the symptoms are generally: chills, fever, excessive sweating, lymph nodes and hepatomegaly, often accompanied by liver tenderness and hepatomegaly; Splenomegaly is common in people with deep Gu disease, such as loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, mucus and bloody stools or pus and bloody stools

Respiratory symptoms are mostly manifested as dry cough, occasional blood in sputum, shortness of breath, chest pain, and speckled, cloud-like or snowflake-like invasive shadows in the liver and lungs

Water Gu is a semi-spirit creature, some are similar to the Golden Cicada Gu, they can enter and leave the human body freely, leaving no traces, Water Gu is an encounter but not a trace for Gu keepers, this is because this kind of Gu is extremely rare, and the second is because this kind of Gu does not need to spend energy and time to cultivate, and it can be used directly

When the man in sackcloth said this, a smile was evident on the corner of his mouth.

Then he told me again, saying that he was fortunate to have a golden cicada Gu that could cure all kinds of poisons, otherwise I and Officer Fang would not be able to save the two lives of the Great Luo Immortals.

After I listened, the back of my neck suddenly bubbled with a cool breath, now I think about it is really a little afraid, just now I was too impulsive, I didn't understand the situation and rushed over, not only did not save people, but also almost put myself in, it is estimated that my little life, sooner or later will be harmed by my impulsive character!

After figuring out the situation, Director Ouyang asked me and the third prince to take care of Officer Fang, while he led people to continue the search around to see if the rest of the missing people could be found

After they left, the third prince and I fed Officer Fang some water and food one after another, and then I infused her with some true qi into her body, and she slowly opened her eyes

However, when she saw clearly that the two people in front of her were me and the third son, her eyes turned red all of a sudden, and two lines of hot tears immediately flowed down the corners of her eyes, and then she threw herself into my arms and began to cry

To be honest, this is the first time I've seen Officer Fang cry so sadly, this cry contains too many emotions in it, there are grievances, fears, loneliness, and sadness

At that moment, I didn't know how to comfort her, I just held her tightly in my arms and let her burst into tears

However, for some reason, the third son, who was squatting on the side, saw Officer Fang crying so sadly, and the corners of his eyes were suddenly full of tears, and he also threw himself into my arms

After a few minutes, Officer Fang's crying gradually subsided, followed by her snoring breathing, I slowly lowered her to the ground, let her lie flat, and then took off my Tsing Yi Taoist robe and covered her, and when I was done, I pulled the third prince to the side

"Huh! I said, Miss, what are you doing with it? What are you crying for? ”

"What? If she is allowed to cry, I will not be allowed to cry? I also have seven emotions and six desires, and I also have sad things, not to mention that I am still a girl, seeing her crying so sadly, can I not touch the scene? ”

"Yo! I really didn't realize that you were still a girl! ”

"Get out! Isn't Miss Ben feminine in your eyes? But it's no wonder, in the eyes of your Daoist Li, I'm afraid that only this official beauty of the Fang Police is the most feminine! ”

After listening to her words, my face turned red all of a sudden, and I opened my mouth for a long time, but I didn't say a word.

When the third prince saw that I had such an expression, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "Hmph! You'd better hurry up and take care of your police officer! With that, she walked to the side without looking back
