In a situation like Mrs. Yao, it seems that she has been taken by someone, so she can be manipulated as a puppet.

Chi Ruoxing closed his eyes and recuperated and calculated in his heart.

Suddenly, Gu Jingchen walked to open the door and led a man who looked like a young man in black clothes into the house.

"Master, after our team followed the man to the northern suburbs, he kept circling around the muntjac slope, as if he was lost. The captain sent me back to report the news, and the others continued to follow. ”

Gu Jingchen nodded: "Got it." ”

asked Chi Ruoxing again: "What do you think?" ”

Suddenly asked, Chi Ruoxing looked at the expressions of the two, thought for a while and then slowly spoke:

"Either you were discovered when you were with someone, and the other party was guarding against you knowing the entrance to the lair, or even luring you into the game,"

Chi Ruoxing frowned and thought,

"Either the other party didn't expect these three people to go back at all, and moved the nest overnight."

Gu Jingchen smiled: "Since it is an old nest, how can it be easily moved?" ”

Ji Ruoxing nodded and looked at him.

The dark guard boy's face immediately collapsed: "Master, then the brothers in our team ......"

Chi Ruoxing saw that he was scared of the child, so he said, "It's okay, if I lure you into the game, I won't let you back easily." When you came back, did you encounter any obstacles on your way? ”

The Darkguard shook his head.

"That's it."

The young man of the dark guard still drooped his head: "Master, our mission has failed. ”

Gu Jingchen's tone was also cold: "When the captain comes back, you will receive the punishment together." ”

After the dark guard boy left with a disgraced face, Gu Jingchen's tone was full of doubts:

"This team of dark guards is the one I trust the most, and they can do a great job every time they are entrusted with important tasks."

Chi Ruoxing asked softly, "How much do you know about the poisonous Gu Sect of the Southern Barbarians?" ”

"You're saying that it could be Gu worms who found their tracks? Are you discovering something? ”

Chi Ruoxing shook his head: "It's just a conjecture, and there is no real evidence." ”

Gu Jingchen tilted his head and waited for Chi Ruoxing's next step.

Chi Ruoxing thought for a while and said:

"Although there are also witchcraft in the Xuancang Realm, there are too many cautions to be paid for maintaining Gu worms, and if you are not careful, you will be beaten with chickens and eggs."

"So even if it's an evil cultivator, he's more willing to spend his time improving his cultivation than raising Gu worms."

"I don't have a deep understanding of Gu, what's the situation on Dayong's side? Since the Poison Gu Sect is called by this name, it must be good use of poison and Gu, right? ”

Gu Jingchen nodded and said: "In the eyes of the Dayong people, the Poison Gu Gate has always been very mysterious, and few people come to the Central Plains to walk, even if they come, they have to disguise themselves, so that people can't see their identity." ”

"Although the name of the Poison Gu Sect is a bit terrifying, it is a sect that is good at medical skills, but the disciples of the sect do not have the feelings of 'the heart of a doctor's parents'."

"On the contrary, their temperament is elusive, and even if they are halfway cured, it is not uncommon for them to lift their legs and leave without saying a word."

"There are even disciples who threaten to save one life in exchange for another."

Chi Ruoxing showed a somewhat disgusted expression: "If you want to save it, you will save it, if you don't save it, why do you want to be this kind of demon." ”

suddenly thought of her Nanban woman's mother, in the memory of the original owner, she has always been kind and loving.

And now Chi Ruoxing has to be suspicious of her, and such a distorted feeling suppresses Chi Ruoxing breathlessly.

I only heard Gu Jingchen say softly: "Don't worry, I won't mix you with that Nanban woman." ”

Gu Jingchen continued: "In Nanban, there is also a special existence in legends, the dark wizard. ”

"Dark wizard?" Chi Ruoxing repeated these three words, "I've never heard of them before. ”

Gu Jingchen smiled: "It's okay, I haven't heard of it before I became the regent." The Southern Barbarian Dark Wizard has a special kind of Gu worm. ”

"Can it take people's hearts?" Chi Ruoxing hurriedly asked.

Gu Jingchen was shocked: "Do you know this? ”

Chi Ruoxing shook his head: "I guess." Because ......"

Chi Ruoxing looked down at the teacup in front of him, and his heart was cold.

"Ruoxing, don't worry just yet, these are all rumors. And the dark wizard has not been seen for more than a hundred years, they are life and death, and the dark wizard will never set foot in their village for the rest of his life. ”

Gu Jingchen comforted, and asked tentatively, "But who is in the Su family ......?"

Ji Ruoxing nodded.

"Can make you so sad, is it Mrs. Yao?"

Chi Ruoxing nodded again and told Mrs. Yao about it.

Gu Jingchen was also sad after hearing this, "If Lady Yao really falls for the Gu, it will be troublesome." ”

"It's not easy for an idle Gu worm to be removed from a person, and besides, this Gu worm has been in her body for more than two years."

"But if that Gu worm is more intense, I'm afraid it has already fused with her heart and flesh, if the Gu worm is removed, her life will be in danger."

"And this kind of secret technique is probably the Gu King, even if my master comes in person, there is nothing he can do."

At this point, both of them were silent and could only meditate silently.

When the day was almost dawn and the team of secret guards came back, Gu Jingchen asked Lan Yuan to take Chi Ruoxing back to the Su family to take care of it.

Chi Ruoxing and Su Qingzhou had just had breakfast in the room, and Su Hou Ye came back from the next court to bring back a guest, and he didn't have to see Chi Ruoxing.

When Chi Ruoxing arrived in the study, he looked at the face that was forty percent similar to Xu Zhu'er, and he knew who it was without introduction.

Lord Xu was very polite, and first said a lot of auspicious words, as if he was just here to congratulate the newlyweds.

Fortunately, he had his uncle by his side, otherwise Chi Ruoxing would really not be happy to go around this bend with him.

The tea was renewed three times, and Xu Dacai explained his intentions in the future.

"Recently, something strange happened in my family, the wedding date is just around the corner, and I shouldn't have bothered the county lord at this time."

"But Weichen really has no choice, all kinds of mages have been invited to the house to see, but they can't do anything."

"That's why I have the courage to ask for the county lord's mother, and I am willing to pay a thousand taels of silver, and I hope that the county lord's mother will forgive me if I am not careful."

Chi Ruoxing gave Lan Yu a look and asked her to call Gu Jingchen to go to Xu's house together.

She had long wanted to go and see the Xu family, but she had never had the opportunity, and now the Xu family asked to come to the door, and there was no reason not to go.

When Chi Ruoxing's carriage walked slowly to the door of Xu's house, he "coincidentally" met the regent passing by on horseback, and they entered the door of Xu's house together.

The situation of the Xu family is not bad from what Yi Yang said, but the place that has been dug up is obviously much more than Yi Yang's time to work.

Today's Xu family has long been unable to recruit workers to do the work, but the soil in the courtyard of the study is still dug up and dug at night.

Gu Jingchen stood beside Chi Ruoxing and muttered in a low voice: "This digging method really looks like I'm looking for something." ”

Lord Xu heard Gu Jingchen's words and continued: "If there is really a thief, then it is too arrogant, and please ask the regent to be the master of your subordinates!" ”

Chi Ruoxing nodded in agreement: "Looking for the Xu family's things in the courtyard of the Xu family, I am not afraid that the Xu family will know about it and toss the Xu family into this appearance." ”

Lord Xu blew his beard and glared at his eyes: "Arrogant!" Too arrogant! If this person is found, my Xu family will never be kind to him! ”
