Chapter 007: There Are Clues
After Yu Tianqi was taken away by the regent, he never appeared on the street again, the matter of Qingfeng Inn was like a stone sinking into the sea, there was a dead silence, no one mentioned it, and no one went to investigate deeply, what is the origin of Qingchen, why is he so familiar with the noble six princesses of southern Xinjiang.
Qingchen and Zhiyu settled down in the Six Princes' Mansion and stood still.
The purpose of her coming was not really to help Nie Xinyao make suggestions, but to use this identity as a cover, and then inquire about the whereabouts of Luo Jin and Zhao Ruofei, and at the same time find an antidote for Xiao Yi.
And the woman who was rescued by them also naturally followed Qingchen's side, and lived in the Six Princes' Mansion, she wanted to be the same as Zhiyu, to become Qingchen's personal maid, but Qingchen refused, when the woman's injuries were almost healed, Qingchen called her over and asked about something.
Qingchen learned that the woman's name was Long Xiang, and she was the daughter of Long Ze, the right minister of the Tianxing Kingdom, who was in exile among the people, and had been dependent on her mother since she was a child.
"Miss Dragon, how are you feeling today?" Qingchen asked.
Because he knew her identity, Qingchen had a thought in his heart, Lord Zhong, the left minister of the Tianxing Kingdom, had colluded with Xiao Lingxiang in southern Xinjiang, and Zhong Wanyu was the queen mother of the Tianxing Kingdom.
"There is Lao Mu Gongzi to remember, the little woman's injury has been almost healed, if it is not for the son to rescue, the little woman may never have the chance to see the light of day, the son of great grace, the little woman can not repay, if the son has any instructions in the future, the little woman will knot the grass title ring, in order to repay today's great kindness. Long Xiang said, and then bowed to Qingchen Fu.
"Miss Long is too polite, in fact, I invited Miss Long to come over today, I really have something to ask for. Qingchen said, then made a gesture to Long Xiang to sit down, and then ordered Zhiyu to serve tea.
"Mu Gongzi has something to say, the little woman must know everything. Long Xiang said, looking up at Qingchen, seeing the positive color in her eyes, she also restrained the smile on her face, waiting for Qingchen to speak.
"That's right, when we met that day, I heard the girl say that Ling Tang was captured by Yu Tianqi, and then tried Gu with a living person, and then lost his life...... If the girl doesn't mind, can you explain the root cause in detail?" Qingchen said as he observed Long Xiang's face.
But when she mentioned Long Xiang's mother, Long Xiang's face turned pale for a moment, and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, so she couldn't help frowning and became more and more curious about this matter.
"Mother's death is tragic, I don't want to mention this matter again, but since the son asked, the little girl didn't hide it...... Mother, it is true that they were killed by that strange Gu worm, they ...... They are ruthless, they are simply not human!" Long Xiang said, suddenly excited, but the killing intent and hatred that flashed in his eyes made Qingchen tremble.
Such a familiar look, she used to be like this, but after so many years of ups and downs, she has already practiced joy and anger, but Long Xiang is still a woman who has not been deeply involved in the world after all, and her heart is full of hostility towards Yu Tianqi, and she does not even hide it on the surface.
Seeing this, Zhan Yu walked to Long Xiang's side, gently held her shoulders, gave her silent comfort, and let her slowly calm down, and then began to tell the ins and outs of the matter.
Long Xiang and her mother originally lived in a border town on the border of Tianxing and Southern Xinjiang, where the people were simple and the scenery was pleasant.
Long Xiang and his mother went up the mountain to collect medicine, and rescued the injured Yu Tianqi in the mountains and forests, Yu Tianqi saw that Long Xiang had a special physique, and it was the best host for Gu worms, so he had a bad idea and wanted to capture Long Xiang and use it to test the Gu, but how could Long Xiang's mother let Yu Tianqi succeed? Under all kinds of obstructions, Yu Tianqi could only be ruthless, and took Long Xiang's mother away and brought her to southern Xinjiang.
Because he was afraid of rashly using Long Xiang as a host, it was difficult to grasp, so Yu Tianqi first used Long Xiang's mother to do experiments, raised Gu worms in Mrs. Long's body, regularly bleed, or planted more Gu worms into it, in just two months, Mrs. Long changed from a big living person to a vessel for cultivating Gu worms, and her blood was the food for Gu worms.
Until there were more and more Gu worms in Mrs. Long's body, Mrs. Long could no longer bear it, the skin of her whole body burst, and countless insects crawled out of her body, one by one, crystal clear, fat and big, wriggling in the blood, looking very disgusting.
But Yu Tianqi just held these insects in the palm of his hand and played with them, as if he couldn't put them down. And the scene where Mrs. Long's whole body exploded and died, which really happened in front of Long Xiang's eyes, making Long Xiang watch her mother die.
Since then, Long Xiang has been trying to find a way to escape, and then she found an opportunity and made a bet with Yu Tianqi, so that Yu Tianqi promised her that now go to the street, find a random place, as long as someone is willing to help Long Xiang, then Yu Tianqi will release people.
Later, there was a scene of the Qingfeng Inn.
"Then do you know what the functions of those Gu worms raised by Yu Tianqi are?" Qingchen thought for a moment, and then asked.
"I haven't been there for a long time, only more than two months, so I don't know a lot, it's just that every time Yu Tianqi puts a Gu worm in his mother's body, he will tell me what this Gu worm does. Long Xiang thought for a moment and said, "As far as I know, there are many kinds of Gu worms in Yu Tianqi's hands, but there are four kinds of Gu worms planted in my mother's body, namely Blood Gu, Love Gu, Soul Devouring Gu, and Medicine Gu. ”
"How do you explain these four Gu poisons?" Qingchen asked.
In her cognition, she had only heard of the Chilian Gu in Helan Rui, and the sleeping Gu in the little girl with a different surname in the Hou Mansion, as for the kinds of Gu worms that Long Xiang said, she had never heard of or seen them.
"The effect of the Blood Gu is similar to that of the Central Plains Yi Rong Dan, if a person is hit by the Blood Gu and uses the blood of another person to feed, then the person who has been hit by the Blood Gu will gradually become more and more similar to the person who provides the Blood Gu. Love Gu is used to deal with negative people, couples take love Gu at the same time, if one of them changes his mind, love Gu will attack and kill people. Soul Devouring Gu is a very ferocious Gu poison that will control people's minds, making people only obey the command of Gu cultivators and become puppets in the hands of Gu cultivators. As for the medicine Gu, it can suck out the toxins in the human blood, and it has the effect of detoxification, but it is a pity that this kind of Gu poison is very rare, and it is also very difficult to raise, listening to Yu Tianqi said, the survival chance of the medicine Gu is very small, so it is also very precious. Long Xiang told everything she knew.
With Long Xiang's explanation, Qingchen gradually fell into contemplation, the Gu poisons in southern Xinjiang are all murderous things, but this medicine Gu is used to save people, but unfortunately, according to Long Xiang, medicine Gu is very rare, and it is difficult to survive, and it must be very precious, which means that it takes a lot of energy to find the medicine Gu that detoxifies Xiao Yi.
"Childe, it seems that this Yu Tianqi is also a master of Gu raising, the reason why the regent of Southern Xinjiang protects him so much is probably because he is handsome, and he wants to use him to marry a woman in Southern Xinjiang to consolidate his position, and I am afraid that more importantly, he has taken a fancy to Yu Tianqi's talent for raising Gu. Zhiyu listened to Long Xiang's words, thought about it, but said so.
When Qingchen heard this, his eyes lit up, he looked at Ju Yu very approvingly, nodded and said, "Yes, that's the truth, Ji Yu, now you are getting smarter and smarter." ”
Just now, she only paid attention to the information of Gu Poison, and did not think about it further, after being reminded by Grip Yu, she also understood that Yu Tianqi was arrogant and domineering, and he was so high-profile in southern Xinjiang, it was clearly for the regent Nie Ruyi to pull hatred, but even so, Nie Ruyi still protected him, if there was no use value, Nie Ruyi would not be like this.
And Yu Tianqi, a gentleman, the biggest use value is not relying on a handsome face as rumored, but his Gu cultivation talent. In other words, Nie Ruyi wanted to use the Gu poison in Yu Tianqi's hands to do something.
"Then what should I do? Yu Tianqi is ruthless, those insects are very powerful, they get into people's bodies, making people feel painful, many people have been tortured by him to the point that they are not human, if he really wants to use this insect to do things that hurt the heavens and reason, who can stop him?"
After all, she had seen the power of the Gu worm with her own eyes, and her mother was also deeply affected by it, and she still had lingering palpitations when she mentioned this matter, so she felt uneasy when she thought of this possibility.
"Dragon girl don't have to worry, everything in the world is mutually reinforcing, and if there is such a thing as Gu poison, there must be something that can restrain it, and it cannot be invincible. Otherwise, Southern Xinjiang would have already dominated the north and south of the river with its unrivaled Gu control technique, how could it be possible to be in a corner of the country all the time?" Qingchen gave Long Xiang a reassuring look and said so.
"This is also true, the child's mind is transparent, and Long Xiang is ashamed. Hearing this, Long Xiang nodded a little shyly and said, "Now Long Xiang only hopes that Gongzi can have a way to solve this matter, and he can't let the Gu poison in Yu Tianqi's hands kill innocent people anymore." ”
"Miss Long, please rest assured, this matter will naturally be taken to heart, Miss Long is now alone, and she can't return to the Kingdom of Heavenly Stars, so she can live in the mansion of Her Royal Highness the Sixth Empress with peace of mind, and when she has the opportunity in the future, she will send the girl back to Tianxing and reunite with Long Chengxiang. Qingchen said.
"In that case, thank you Childe. Long Xiang spoke again, "It's not too early, Long Xiang won't bother the son, and will leave first." ”
After Long Xiang finished speaking, she blessed Qingchen, turned around and walked out of the house, returned to the courtyard arranged for her by Nie Xinyao, and went to rest. She is a weak woman, and in the face of those bloody scenes, she has long been frightened, even if she wants to do something, she is powerless.
Seeing this dragon incense leave, Qingchen gave Zhan Yu a look, Zhan Yu walked to the door, looked around, and didn't find anyone, so he carefully closed the door and returned to the house.
