As soon as the words 'Life and Death Gu' came out, everyone in the field did not change their expressions.The strong servant who was pressing Young Master Zhou's wrist on the side of the bed fell down on the bed in shock: "What, what...? Gu?! The Fourth Young Master is Gu?!"

The servant on the side was so frightened that he even smashed the medicine bowl on the ground, his face was full of horror, and he couldn't stop backing away.

Gu, upper worm and lower dish, means that worms are cultivated in a container.Regardless of literacy or not, in Daqing, who doesn't know what the origin of this 'Gu' is?When the late emperor was there, a strange case happened under his rule. An official and his family in Chang'an Mansion died violently at home. What Miao girl did, this Miao girl was naturally killed by the first emperor.

There is nothing strange about this at first, killing people is a matter of course.But the strange thing is that shortly after the death of this Miao girl, a plague broke out in Chang'an Mansion. Danger.The first emperor ordered everyone to stay at home and not to go out, but the plague still spread. In the end, even two princes and princesses in the palace died, leaving ten rooms empty.

Rumors gradually spread among the people, saying that this Miao girl was actually the incarnation of Empress Chong, and that the first emperor killed Miao girl to anger Empress Chong, which is why Empress Chong came to take revenge.What a shrewd and capable person was the late emperor?Naturally, he would not believe such rumors. Seeing that the plague was about to leave the city, the first emperor ordered the city to be closed, and the government sent yamen servants to search from house to house. Sure enough, they found a group of sneaky people.

Those sneaky people claim to be a certain Miao tribe in Miaojiang, and the Miao girl killed by the first emperor is their saint. Now they want to avenge the saint, so they spread Gu insects all over the Chang'an mansion, regardless of good and evil, and slaughtered them all. Burial to the saint.The first emperor was furious, sentenced these Miao people to Ling Chi, and ordered the army to go to the three tribes of Miao and Yiqi. The turmoil calmed down.Afterwards, the first emperor issued a strict order, but those who were suspected of poisonous poisoning would rather be killed by mistake than released by mistake.

Most of the servants present are upright adults who have experienced this catastrophe when they were young, or who have grown up listening to the words "If you are not good, let the Chong Empress take you in", "Gu ' That word really scared them.The housekeeper of the Zhou Mansion held Zhou Ge's arm with an anxious expression on his face, urging him to leave: "Master! The young master is a Gu! This is going to be extraordinary! Master is in the world! How can you stay here anymore! Get out of here quickly!" let's go!"

Elder Zhou Ge was also in a trance. He was dragged away for two steps. Seeing that Gu Guoshi was still standing there with the old god, he suddenly regained some sense. Teacher! Please explain in detail! My child..."

Gu Guoshi shook his head and replied: "Life and death Gu is a male and female Gu. The two live and die together. If one dies, the other will never live alone... Miao women have strong temperaments, and life and death Gu has always been placed on lovers as a way to die for love. Well, Young Master Zhou is in such a state of mind, I'm afraid the mother Gu is already dead."

Yu Ning thought to himself on one side: This is probably because the young master Zhou caused a love debt again, and he died unjustly.

Seeing the panicked expressions of the servants, he comforted him: "Life and death Gu will not surpass others, so don't be alarmed, please return to your position."

Hearing what he said, everyone in the room felt relieved, and then they all responded yes, and the room became orderly again.

"This evil animal actually provoked the Miao girl..." Zhou Ge's old eyes closed, and when they opened again, there was no sadness at all, and the light flickered: "What the national teacher said before, I hope I can have a detailed talk with the national teacher. fan."

"Please." Gu Guoshi nodded and left with Elder Zhou Ge.Yu Ning wanted to follow, but Gu Guoshi ordered: "Ayu, you stay and take care of this place."

Elder Zhou Ge paused when he heard the words, but he didn't object. Instead, he ordered everyone to listen to Yu Ning's words and not to disobey them.As the eldest son, Zhou Shilang naturally had no choice but to leave with Elder Zhou Ge.

"Yes, master." Yu Ning bowed his hands and agreed.The guards of the Guoshi Mansion were also divided into two teams, one team followed Gu Guoshi away, and the other stayed in the courtyard, waiting for his orders.Yu Ning thought for a while, then glanced at the terrified look of Young Master Zhou on the bed, and ordered: "Doctor Wang, tell Young Master Zhou to faint."

Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Wang took off the silver needle on Young Master Zhou's seven orifices, and injected another needle in the center of his Tianling Gai. After the injection, Young Master Zhou stopped moving immediately, and even his breathing was barely audible.Doctor Wang withdrew his hand, and replied: "Master, this old man has already sealed Mr. Zhou's last breath. When Mr. Zhou Ge comes back, he will pull out the needle, and he will be able to say a few more words."

"It's the best, you've worked hard." Yu Ning told the maid in the room to serve her wholeheartedly, then turned around and went out with Furong—it's fine for him to stay here, Gu Guoshi told him to stay here, probably because he wanted to Tell him to see if there is anything wrong with the yard, not to stay here as a housekeeper.

Fu Rong followed behind him, lowering her eyebrows and convincing her eyes: "Young master, although life and death Gu is not superior to others, but I don't know if there are other poisons, young master, it's better not to keep it for long."

Yu Ning replied: "Life and death Gu is a Gu planted by Miao girl to her lover, which means life and death together. If you were a Miao girl and injected life and death Gu on your lover, would you leave the poison in other places?"

Furong thought for a while, then said hesitantly: "If the servant is a Miao girl...the servant will place some poisonous poison in places that the lover will never touch to protect him."

"Stupid!" Yu Ning sighed: "People are so easy to control... You are not afraid that your lover will suddenly meet and die one day? Furong, you better not use life and death Gu , prepare your sword... In the future, if your lover is unfaithful to you, you can kill him with one sword."

"Young Master!" Fu Rong gave him an angry look, and then said: "Young servant is disrespectful...Young Master, you should go back quickly."

Yuning found a place in the small garden of the yard and sat down, endured the nausea and carefully looked at the aura in the yard for any abnormalities, and said: "Master... the master ordered things to come down, let's go No."

He originally thought that the corpse of the Miao girl might be hidden in this yard, or the corpses of other people, but it turned out that there was nothing unusual about it, and the yard was even cleaner than other places in the mansion.He was afraid that he might miss it, so he simply got up and walked around the small yard twice, but he gave up when he found nothing.

Yu Ning couldn't help being amazed in his heart, there was really no need to stay here any longer, so he asked the attendant beside him, "Is there any news from Master?"

One of the attendants, Fang Fang, came over from the Gu Guoshi's side, and said back: "My lord, if you have nothing to do, you can go back to the residence first."

Yuning nodded and took Furong and the others back home first.The carriage has been waiting outside the door, Yu Ning didn't need to say anything, and got into the carriage by himself, playing with a willow branch in his hand - it was broken from the willow tree outside Zhouge's old gate.On the surface, he said that he would take the willow tree with ominous aura back to participate in the research, but the servants of the Zhou Mansion naturally did not dare to stop him, but in fact, he was itchy and bored, so he broke off a branch to play.

When walking halfway, Yu Ning looked at the sky, and suddenly there was a sound of hunger in the mansion, and then he remembered that he and Gu Guoshi were disturbed by Mr. Zhou Ge so that they didn't eat lunch, and thought that he hadn't visited Mr. Wusong for a long time. It just so happened that Physician Wang also followed, just in time to show Mr. Wu Song a pulse.He ordered: "Furong, let's go to Yuelai Restaurant first."

Fu Rong ordered the carriage to turn around and go to Yuelai Restaurant, Yu Ning leaned against the wall of the carriage with some annoyance, and said: "Didn't Master have not eaten yet... People are iron and rice are steel, I don't think that old Zhou Ge can think of it." Feed my master, Fu Rong, tell someone to hurry over and buy some snacks for your master—you don’t need to look for a shop too far away, find a shop closer, this way the old fox should know to invite my master as soon as someone reminds him time to eat."

Fu Rong responded, gave the order, covered her lips with a smile, and said, "Master, it's a 'master', not a 'shigong'."

"Isn't this something that can't be corrected for a while?" Yu Ning thought for a while, and then said: "After going back for a while, the people who followed today will all be rewarded with a bucket of grapefruit leaf water, and take a good bath to get rid of bad luck. "

"Is Zhou Ge's old mansion really so... unbearable?" Fu Rong said with suspicion in her heart: "The servant feels cold and unspeakable as soon as he enters the mansion, and the steward Wang gave the servant a small jade pendant, so the servant is better. "

"Anyway, it's not very good." Yu Ning didn't want to say too much. On the one hand, it's a private matter, so he shouldn't talk too much. On the one hand, this matter is based on what Gu Guoshi said, and it probably involves some court struggles. The fewer people who know, the better. good. "Remember, always use grapefruit leaves to bathe, don't be lazy."

"Then the servant girl asks someone to put a brazier at the door, and only after stepping over the brazier are people allowed to enter the door?"

Yu Ning thought for a while, and seriously replied: "This method is also good..."

Before the words were finished, the carriage stopped abruptly, and Yu Ning was about to fall to the ground for a moment of instability. Fu Rong shot like lightning, grabbed Yu Ning's arm and pulled him back to his original position, sternly shouting: "What What's going on?! How do you drive! "

The coachman in front stopped the disturbing horse and replied, "Miss Furong, a woman suddenly rushed out in front, and the little one didn't notice it for a moment, and that's why there was trouble."

"Driving well, why did a woman suddenly rush out? Where are the guards?" Fu Rong was about to say something, but Yu Ning raised her hand to signal that there is no need to pursue it, and asked aloud: "Did anyone be hurt?"

"Young master, don't worry, the girl is fine and she was not hurt," said the coachman.

Yu Ning replied: "Then let's go."

"Yes." The coachman responded, shouted and told the woman to get out of the way, and was about to drive the horse when Yuning heard a scream ahead.Yu Ning frowned upon hearing the sound, opened the car door and looked over, only to see a woman kneeling in the middle of the road, dressed plainly, with tears all over her face, looking at them in horror.But Fu Rong stopped in front of Yu Ning, and said, "Why is the girl still on the way? Haven't you driven her away?"

Fu Rong whispered to Yu Ning: "This woman is a bit strange, young master be careful."

Yuning nodded and stopped going forward.

The guard rushed forward immediately: "Girl, where are you injured? If you are not injured, then don't block the way! If you are injured, I will send you to the doctor's office for treatment."

The woman didn't move, she looked at Yu Ning timidly, ignored the guard, and said: "My leg seems to be injured, and I can't stand up for a while... Would you like to take a look?"

Yuning and Fu Rong looked at each other with question marks all over their faces.Although the folk customs in this dynasty are open, the words the girl said can be regarded as seduction. He looked carefully, only to find that although the girl's face was full of tears, she was somewhat charming. When she yelled like that, maybe she really got out of the car to help her.

Fu Rong shouted: "If you are injured, go to see the doctor. Why do you call my young master? Girl, please respect yourself! Left and right, take this girl to find the doctor!"

The girl was startled, staring at Yu Ning firmly, and then asked: "My lord, are you really not coming to Funu's house?"

Yuning couldn't help laughing, there is definitely something wrong with this girl, he would be a fool if he really got out of the car!He sat in the car and raised his voice: "Girl, don't be afraid, where is the injury, just go to see the doctor with your left and right... I don't understand medical principles, and I don't understand human feelings. It is really unnecessary to help the girl."

Fu Rong raised her hand to hang the car door, and ordered: "Go."

"Yes." The coachman replied, and a guard got off his horse and helped the girl away, and the carriage started to move slowly again.Not long after, Yuelai Restaurant arrived.Yu Ning has already ordered someone to come and book a table in advance, and Yu Ning can eat as soon as he comes and sits down.

Yu Ning picked a seat on the second floor by the window, asked someone to set up a meal and then used it.He was at the same table, Imperial Doctor Wang was at the same table, and several guards were seated on both sides.

Yuelai Restaurant is the second largest restaurant in Chang'an Mansion, and naturally they have several signature dishes, among which the distiller's lees meat and roast duck are excellent, Yu Ning couldn't help nodding wildly in his heart when he tasted it - let alone the distiller's lees meat, there was no such dish before. After eating it, the roast duck has the taste of a modern roast duck. The fat is neither fat nor greasy, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, plump and juicy. Yuning couldn't control himself and even ate two duck legs.

I wanted to order another roast duck, but Fu Rong coughed softly beside her: "Young master, didn't you say to restrain your appetite?"

When Yuning heard this, he thought of Lan Xiao's abdominal muscles, and thought about the layer of soft meat on his stomach, so he had to give up the idea of ​​ordering another roast duck, and turned to eat other dishes.

Halfway through the use, the waiter in the store came over with a girl holding a pipa, and asked with a flattering face: "Your honor, do you want to listen to music? This is the girl who can sing the best in our store. Its name is Huang Ying, and its voice is just like Huang Ying's, and it only costs half a tael per song."

Yu Ning glanced at the girl, and calculated in his mind, half taels of silver...half a tael of silver is about five hundred copper coins, a roast duck is only three hundred coins, one and two thirds of a roast duck for a song?

Poor forced Yu Ning to refuse, Fu Rong knew that Yu Ning didn't want to listen when he didn't move his eyebrows, and was about to send it away, so the girl suddenly said: "No matter the money, my concubine would like to sing a song with you, I don't know Would your lord be willing to listen to it?"

for free?Yu Ning smiled, and said to Fu Rong: "Fu Rong, do you feel that we met a lot more girls when we came out today?"

Fu Rong nodded slightly: "Exactly, young master."

It's not like Yuning hasn't gone out on weekdays, but how can the girl on the left ask him to support him, and the girl on the right wants to sing for him for free like today?Yu Ning knows something in his own mind, he looks fair and elegant, and wearing a brocade suit is barely enough to be handsome and elegant, so as not to make people feel bad, how can he attract such two girls to come up to hook up?

He saw a lot of disgusting things today, so he became impatient to pester people any more, turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, and didn't even want to give him a single glance: "Send it away."

"Yes." Fu Rong replied, and was about to step forward, a gleam flashed in the girl's eyes, and then she raised her hand.This kind of posture is common in launching hidden weapons, and the guards around Yu Ning are not free-spirited. The moment the girl raised her hand, someone stood in front of Yu Ning, and someone grabbed the girl with her backhand, and even took her with her. Xiao Er on the side also fell down.

The guard standing in front of Yu Ning stood guard with his sword, but he didn't see where the hidden weapon was, and shouted: "What did you throw?!"

The girl didn't seem to have the slightest bit of martial arts, but she was directly restrained by the guards, her arms were cut behind her back, and the pipa in her arms fell to the ground, making a chaotic sound.The girl timidly said: "Concubine... I didn't throw anything away, I just want to straighten my hair... Your lord, you are wronging me!"

"Hair?" Fu Rong held a short dagger in one hand and stood beside Yuning, feeling that there were too many things to do today, so she said: "Master, no matter what, let's go back home quickly."

"...That's fine." Yu Ning suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and asked seemingly unintentionally: "Girl, you didn't come here to find me bad luck just because I went to Zhou Ge's old mansion?"

"Forget it... I don't even think about it." Yu Ning stood up without waiting for her to answer, waved her hand and said, "When I leave, give her a tael of silver and ask her to buy a new pipa... Let's go back home .”

When Yu Ning passed by the girl's side, he paused, and said: "Girl, if you often greet and see off at Yuelai Restaurant, you also know that there will be guards around people like me. It's better to make less gestures in the future. If there is a next time, I'm afraid I won't meet such a good-tempered person like me."

After Yuning finished speaking, she left with Fu Rong.When Yuning got into the car, the two guards who restrained the girl and Xiaoer let go. One of the guards took out a tael of silver from his sleeve and put it in front of the girl, and left quickly.

The girl reached out and took the silver tael that was still warm on the table, and slowly tightened her fingers in her hand.

***

Yu Ning got into the car and ordered: "Ask Taiyi Wang to go to Mr. Wusong to ask for a pulse. It seems that today is not peaceful, so I will go back first."

"Yes." Fu Rong replied, instead of following the car, she went to Doctor Wang's car to explain.Yu Ning sat down, put his fingers on the car frame, and immediately felt as if he was pressing on something protruding, he suddenly felt that the aura in his body seemed to suddenly surge, and then there was a crisp sound from under his hand sound.

This sound gave Yuning a bad feeling, the last time he heard a sound like this was when he trampled to death a cockroach as big as **** at home.Ah, of course it is an exaggeration to say that cockroaches are as big as □□□□, but they are also six to seven centimeters long. take.

Although Yu Ning withdrew his hand subconsciously, it was too late to do so at this moment. Yu Ning looked at the thing on the window frame that was pressed into a puddle of yellow-green, and then looked at himself. The spotless fingers clearly knew that they should call someone to take precautions, but they still couldn't hold back and silently poured a cup of tea and washed their hands first.

The dirty thing didn't touch him because of the sapphire Canglong Seal he was carrying.Qing Yuxi is very domineering, even when he sometimes touches two more magic tools, he will make a fuss, not to mention that this dirty thing wants to get into his body, it is directly crushed into scum by Qing Yuxi's aura.

What Yuning didn't expect was that the aura could have such uses, so he stopped calling people at all, and looked carefully at the insect corpses on the window frame with the spirit of research.This should be the legendary Gu worm, although he has no enmity with these Miaojiang people, but after thinking about it for a while, he knows that this can only be related to Zhou Ge's old mansion.

Tsk, it's so troublesome.

But since the aura can prevent Gu insects, he doesn't have to worry about Gu Guoshi's side.Others threw the Gu worms into his car, and he didn't dare to go back to the mansion, so he ordered: "Turn around and go back to Zhouge's old mansion."

Fu Rong asked doubtfully outside, "Master?"

"You are not allowed to get in the car." Yu Ning said: "You go to sit with Doctor Wang, without my order, no one is allowed to get in the car, and you are not allowed to open the door."

"...Master?" Fu Rong asked again.

Yu Ning sternly shouted with rare words: "Do as you are ordered!"

Fu Rong was silent for a while, and finally replied: "...Yes."

The carriage started to move quickly, Zhou Ge's old mansion was neither too far nor too close to Yuelai Restaurant, Yu Ning took this opportunity to search in the car, but found nothing.Yu Ning could have pushed the aura of the Qing Yuxi to release, crushing all the miscellaneous Gu worms in the car, but thinking of the Gu worms in the scriptures that generally have a spiritual connection with the owner, he died for a while. But that can still be called a coincidence, if they are all dead, it will force their master to make another trick.

The Gu worms on the left and right can't harm him, so Yu Ning pretended not to know about it, and sat in the car and took out a book of Chinese characters and read it like this.When they arrived at Zhou Ge's old mansion, Yu Ning did not get off the car, but ordered to wait outside, waiting for Gu Guoshi to come out.

About half an hour later, Gu Guoshi came out from Zhou Ge's old mansion, and Zhou Ge saw him off all the way.

Fu Rong reminded outside: "Master, your lord has come out."

"En." Yu Ning took out his wooden sword from the car, slightly activated the aura, only to hear a few slight cracking sounds from the car.Standing at the gate of Zhouge's old mansion, Gu Guoshi froze when he noticed the soaring aura in Yu Ning's car, and then saw Yu Ning push the door and come down.

Yuning held the sword in one hand, and it naturally fell to his side.

"Ayu?" Gu Guoshi frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"

Yu Ning smiled slightly, and suddenly raised his sword and pointed it at Gu Guoshi. Before Gu Guoshi could ask, he saw the side of Yu Ning's hand, and the tip of the sword pointed at Gu Guoshi's frame.The aura containing thunder and lightning erupted from the tip of his sword, rushing forward indomitably, like invincible.

As soon as Yu Ning came out, he closed it, and everyone suddenly smelled a burnt fragrance that seemed to be there.

"Master, I'm afraid this frame can't be used anymore, it caused people to mess with it." Yu Ning moved his nose, a little disgusted and couldn't help but salivate, and murmured: "It's quite fragrant."
