Half an hour ago.

Qiu Chen pursed his lips and watched the pitch-black Gu worm wriggling in pain in the vessel, his brows were furrowed, as if he felt rather difficult.After a while, he suddenly remembered something, leaned over to get some water from a small bowl, and poured a little into the container.

After a while, Qiu Chen stared at the Gu worms in the vessel, slightly narrowing his eyes.

Those black bugs that were still wriggling, suddenly became like a fish in water, changed their dying appearance, and returned to life.

Qiu Chen thought for a moment, then used a silver needle to take a little bit of mucus from Gu worm's body, observed carefully for a while, and had a faint guess in his heart.

These Gu worms are completely dark, afraid of light, and like the environment with water. It seems that they can only survive in damp and dark places. If they leave a suitable living environment, they will perish soon.But Yuejian Country is a country in the desert, dry and without rain all year round, with plenty of sunlight, how could it be possible to raise such damp-loving Gu worms?

——That is to say, the source of these evil things must not be in Yuejian Country.However, Yuejian Country is surrounded by deserts, and there is really no place that is humid and dark.Unless, unless it's underground...

While thinking anxiously, suddenly there was a door knock behind him, Qiu Chen turned his head to look, and found that it was Yao Xue and Yao Zicheng who came in.He was obsessed with studying Gu worms just now, and now he suddenly realized that the sky outside the window had completely darkened.

Yao Xue took a few pieces of clean gauze and the few wound medicines she could find, and strode towards Qiuchen.

He saw Qiu Chen's research addict come up, and he was studying Gu worms restlessly, feeling a little anxious in his heart, he grabbed the man's shoulder with some force, gently pulled Qiu Chen's hand up, and carefully inspected the incision on the other's wrist, Wrapped gauze on him after debridement, and said distressedly: "Does it hurt?"

When Qiu Chen heard the words, he just stroked the back of Yao Xue's hand lightly, raised his eyes and looked at the other party, there was a little smile and familiar warmth in his eyes, which were extremely bright under the candlelight.He shook his head slightly, and sighed softly: "The world is in chaos, and there are endless tricks. If I don't find the source of these evil things, I won't be at ease. Besides..." He paused and said: "Someone has to do this. something."

Yao Xue knew that Qiu Chen was right, but when she thought of Qiu Chen hurting herself like this because of that bastard Qi Ying, she felt really annoyed.He thought for a moment, turned his head and glanced at Yao Zicheng who was standing in a state of anxiety, and said in a low voice, "You will follow me and your father back in the morning, and don't worry about things here anymore. This place is too treacherous. It's really not suitable to stay for a long time, do you hear me?"

After hearing this, Yao Zicheng thought of Qi Wan again, so naturally he refused. He stared at a pair of pitch-black eyes, turned his head to look at Qiu Chen pleadingly, and begged, "Daddy..."

Seeing this, Qiu Chen finally put down his work and stood up.He looked at Yao Zicheng for a moment, until the other party scratched his head embarrassingly, and finally sighed softly, with a subtle smile and affection in his eyes.He waved to Yao Zicheng, and said in a slow voice, "Chengzi, come here."

Yao Zicheng's eyes lit up immediately when he heard Qiu Chen calling him by his nickname, knowing that his father was no longer angry with him, he hurried forward in two or three steps, hugged Qiu Chen's waist very affectionately, and said softly Called: "Daddy..."

Yao Zicheng has grown taller than Qiu Chen, Qiu Chen raised his hand and touched Yao Zicheng's head with some effort, then sighed and said, "Silly boy, does the injury on your body hurt?"

Yao Zicheng pursed his lips, and rubbed his head against Qiu Chen's palm, like a big coquettish dog, whispered: "It doesn't hurt. It's a small injury, it doesn't hurt at all."

Qiuchen was silent for a moment, took out the small box that was given to Qi Wan earlier from his cuff, handed it to Yao Zicheng, and said softly: "I brought some here on purpose, but it's a pity...it's a pity that he doesn't like this anymore."

Yao Zicheng was slightly taken aback, then opened the delicate little box silently, and saw the orange candies filled to the brim.

No matter how seriously injured he was before, Yao Zicheng didn't say a word, but at this moment, he looked at the yellow and orange candies in the box, and the circles of his eyes suddenly turned red.

Yao Zicheng has always had a smile since he was a child, he treats people with kindness and generosity, and he is rarely unhappy, and the times of great joy and sorrow are all because of Qi Ying.Thinking of Qi Wan's hint just now, Qiu Chen felt helpless and distressed, so he gently ran down Yao Zicheng's hair, and coaxed softly, "Go back with me and your father, okay?"

Yao Zicheng just lowered his eyes, holding the little box tightly, his hands trembling violently.

Yao Xue on the side stepped forward lightly, stretched out her hand and patted Yao Zicheng's back, and comforted her in a slow voice: "No matter what happens, no matter when, your father and I will always stand by your side, as long as you want to go home , we will always come out to meet you."

Yao Zicheng was stunned for a moment, looking at the two people in front of him, it was as if he had returned to his childhood.At that time, when he went out to play, when he was tired and sleepy, when he turned around, he could always see his father and dad standing side by side behind him, holding out their hands to him with a smile.

He was originally just an orphan left by the war, and he should have starved to death in an unknown corner, but after so many years, these two people in front of him raised him up, even though they were thousands of miles away, when he was most sad and at a loss When the time came, he still calmly appeared by his side and told him with a smile that everything was fine.

Thinking of this, Yao Zicheng felt his nose sore for a while, and finally shed a tear.He hugged Yao Xue violently, stretched his long arms around Qiu Chen, hugged the two of them together, and said sullenly: "Father, Daddy..."

"We go home."

……

When Qi Wan heard Qiu Chen outside the door finished speaking, he and Chu Mu looked at each other, feeling rather surprised.The two hurriedly dressed neatly and followed Qiu Chen to the side hall.

Naturally, there were Yao Xue and Yao Zicheng in the side hall. When they saw Qi Wan and Chu Mu coming in, they stood up one after another.Yao Zicheng changed from his usual earnest expression, he just took a quick look at Qi Wan, and then looked away.

Qiu Chen put the vessel in his palm, presented it in front of Qi Wan, and said, "According to what I just learned, this kind of Gu worm likes a dark and humid environment, and cannot survive in a dry and bright place. Is there such a qualified place?"

Hearing this, Qi Wan pondered for a moment, but was at a loss for a while.At this time, Chu Mu suddenly said, "This environment sounds like it's underground."

Qiu Chen's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "Indeed, Yuejian Country is a country of quicksand. If it is humid and dark, it can only be underground. Or, Fengqing Country is near the sea. Although there are deserts, the climate is slightly humid. The border, Gu worms may also come from there."

Chu Mu thought for a while, then hesitated a little and said, "Perhaps...these Gu worms come from the underground palace?"

Qi Wan was slightly taken aback, and asked in confusion: "The underground palace?" He had not been down to earth for a long time, and he didn't know that there was an underground palace in Yuejian Kingdom.

Chu Mu didn't understand much, so he didn't go on, but Yao Zicheng, who was standing at the side, said bluntly: "I heard the Queen Mother accidentally mentioned that there is an underground palace in Yuejian Kingdom, which is hidden in a secret place. It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to find treasures passed down from generation to generation. Could these Gu worms be released from there?"

Qiu Chen asked thoughtfully, "Where is this underground palace?"

Yao Zicheng shook his head: "I've only heard it mentioned before. This matter is more like a legend. In fact, no one knows its exact location."

Qi Wan stood up: "Since that's the case, let's search for this underground palace and eliminate these Gu worms from the source."

Qiu Chen nodded and said: "If you really want to look for it, you should also look for it in the direction of Fengqing Country. The more humid the place, the greater the possibility of finding it."

Chu Mu was noncommittal to Qi Wan's proposal, and remained silent for a while, looking at Yao Xue and Qiu Chen, and said, "When you came from Yong State, you passed through Fengqing State, did you hear or see anything?"

Yao Xue seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "We were originally going to go from Fengqing Country, but when we passed by, for some reason, it was a cloud of black mist from a far away border, and we couldn't get close no matter what. , and no one came out. We tried several times, but we couldn't penetrate the black mist. Later we threw some things in, but those items were sucked in by the black mist and never returned. So, we In the end, I had to take a detour.”

Qi Wan and Chu Mu were startled when they heard the words, and they looked at each other, feeling more and more uneasy.

Chu Yan is the lord of the Fengqing Kingdom, and Luo Xuan is now the queen. They did not come to the celebration this time. Qi Wan originally thought that it was just Chu Yan's promises that were not true, and she turned back. something like this.

In this way, it is unknown whether the two of them may have encountered some dangerous situation.

The more Qi Wan thought about it, the more she couldn't think about it. When she made up her mind, she turned her head to Chu Mu and said, "Ayan, let's go to Fengqing Country together first, to find Brother Feilan and your brother."

Chu Mu frowned, as if he was worried. After a while, he said seriously: "No. This is too dangerous. According to the current situation, we don't know what we will meet along the way. We can't take such a risk."

Seeing this, Qiu Chen also echoed, "Your Majesty, I hope you think twice. A Gu worm is still difficult to deal with. If you really go to their lair, you don't know what kind of danger you will encounter. If you are not fully prepared, it is better not to go rashly." .”

Qi Wan just shook her head and said, "No. I have to go and see what's going on." He suddenly remembered that Luo Xuan once mentioned to him that he wanted to take him to a place. Tell him about your past life.It's just that various things took a turn for the worse later, and the two of them never had a chance to mention this matter again.

Seeing that Qi Wan's attitude was so firm, Chu Mu immediately became a little anxious. He grabbed Qi Wan's hand and was about to speak, but Qi Wan squeezed her hand into Chu Mu's palm, clasped his fingers firmly, and stopped. Let the other person do the talking.

Qi Wan turned her head to look at Yao Xue and Qiu Chen again, and said sincerely: "This time I can turn the danger into a bargain, all thanks to you two. I am grateful beyond words. If you have anything you want, just ask, I will definitely give it to you." Do your best to be satisfied. However, the Yuejian Kingdom is now full of devastation, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay for a long time to enjoy yourself. Tomorrow morning, please take Yao Zicheng and leave this place as soon as possible and return to your mother country."

Hearing this, Yao Xue just smiled, and was not polite. She saluted Qi Wan respectfully, and said decently: "Thank you for your kindness. When I return to Yong Kingdom, I will definitely report this matter to the Holy Majesty. If it is feasible, I will definitely support you at that time." " Qiu Chen on the side also took out some pills from his sleeve and handed them to Qi Wan: "If Your Majesty insists on going to Fengqing Country, these pills can prevent viruses, but the time limit is only three hours, and they can only prevent Avoid ordinary toxins. If you encounter anything else... Be careful, Your Majesty Wanwang."

After the two finished speaking, they saluted respectfully, and pulled Yao Zicheng to leave.But Yao Zicheng just lowered his head and stood still.There was extreme silence in the air for a while, and after a while, he slowly raised his head, pursed his lips, his eyes were red, and stared at Qi Wan without saying a word.

Qi Wan knew in her heart that after this farewell, she might never see each other again, even though there was no affection between him and Yao Zicheng, if she put herself in her shoes, she felt uncomfortable.So he took a deep breath, looked into the other person's eyes, showed a sincere smile, and said softly: "You will become a very good general."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and didn't look at Yao Zicheng again.After a long silence, there was a knock at the door, and the three of them went out.

Qi Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he turned to look at Chu Mu, who was also looking at him.Chu Mu seldom lowered his face towards Qi Wan, but at this moment, he frowned and said, "Brother Mingyue, we will stay in the bedroom and wait for Bai Ruo Shenjun to call us up, and we will not go anywhere else. .”

Qi Wan was startled when she heard the words, and then she was a little puzzled and said: "But brother Feilan and your brother, they may have encountered some danger, how can we just sit idly by?"

When Chu Mu heard the three words "Brother Feilan" come from Qi Wan's mouth, he immediately became angry, and seeing Qi Wan's extremely concerned expression, he felt a burst of evil fire rushing into his heart. There is a prairie fire.After a while, he tried his best to suppress his impulse, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "If they encounter something that cannot be solved, even if we go, it will not help. Besides, you are seriously injured, Both of us have no spiritual power, after all, we are just mortals, so how can we help?"

After the two of them made up their minds, Qi Wan rarely saw Chu Mu's attitude towards her so tough, she felt depressed, and her tone became a little irritable: "Then are we going to stay in this palace and wait to die? A Yan, Don’t you want to know the truth? Where did these Gu worms come from, why the Hongyuan Secret Realm was opened, don’t you want to find out?”

Qi Wan's words weighed on Chu Mu's heart like boulders, making him feel more uncomfortable.His face became more and more gloomy, and after a while, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed Qi Wan's wrist, and pressed her against the wall beside her.

At this time, all the overall situation and morality gave way, and Chu Mu only had the desire to stay with Qi Wanping in peace, and the endless resentment and unwillingness that he failed to get what he wanted in his previous life.

In this life, no matter what, he will let Qi Wan stay away from those crimes, stay away from the so-called truth, and only be with him, and the two of them will go on together.

However, even so, the time that the two of them will be together may not be long.When Fanchen wakes up from his dream, that is when he falls into the Asura Way.He really didn't want to, didn't want to give this little time to others.

Thinking of this, Chu Mu just felt sore and painful in his heart, which was extremely uncomfortable.He couldn't understand why, why people's wishes were always so unfulfilled, why there were always so many difficulties and obstacles between him and Qi Wan, and there were always reasons and morals that could not be let go.

It seemed that there were thousands of words stuck in his heart, but Chu Mu didn't say anything in the end, he just stared at Qi Wan with a pair of beautiful dark eyes, dark waves surging in his eyes, almost ignited a frenzy.

Qi Wan had never seen Chu Mu's crazy eyes before, only felt that the other party's hot breath was almost burning her, and instinctively felt shuddering.He subconsciously wanted to break free from the other party's shackles on him, but in exchange for an even more angry confinement.

Seeing Qi Wan like this, Chu Mu finally calmed down a little.He stared fixedly at Qi Wan for a moment, leaned over and kissed her lightly on her lips, stroked her smooth cheek, and said in a trembling voice: "No way. Brother Mingyue, you can't go. Spend time here with me." What's wrong with living the rest of my life? There is no one else here, just the two of us, only us..."

Qi Wan didn't understand why Chu Mu was so excited, but she didn't want to see Chu Mu so uncomfortable, and felt distressed and helpless.He frowned and looked at Chu Mu with a pair of bright eyes, feeling extremely tormented.Finally, he stared at Chu Mu's eyes full of longing and helplessness, pursed his lips, and said softly, "Ayan, let me go."

Chu Mu was slightly startled when he heard the words, and then his mind went blank, and anger and sourness swept through his heart like a gust of wind in an instant, making him almost unable to control himself.Sanity has completely crumbled.Chu Mu could no longer suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart. He grabbed Qi Wan's arm and rubbed her into his arms vigorously, lifted her chin, and kissed her like a storm.
