"Have you already got a clue?" Tangning looked at Si Wuxiu suspiciously.
From his willingness to agree to the bet to his unworried expression when he mentioned the demon corpse, Tangning felt that there must be something weird about it.Si Wuxiu must have found a clue to deal with the demon corpse, so he showed such a confident expression.
But from last night's spying until now, Si Wuxiu was always with Tangning. What they saw and heard and the information they received were all the same. But while Tangning was still at a loss, classmate Si already had a plan in his mind.
The gap between people, why is it so big!
What link did I miss... Tangning thought hard, going through all the details from last night to today in her mind, but she still found nothing.
"Want to know?" Si Wuxiu looked at Tangning with interest, like a hunter waiting for a rabbit, with the corners of his mouth slightly curved.
"Stop it, don't talk yet!" Tangning glared at him, "Anyway, your next sentence is definitely asking me to make an exchange, so I won't be fooled by you."
He had already promised the other party that "the discussion is enough", Tangning thought with her ass and knew that if Si Wuxiu raised the conditions again, it would be more embarrassing than this. Maybe it would be something like "help me take a bath" or "accompany me in double cultivation" of.
The appearance is so cold and handsome, but the heart always falls below the lower limit. If Tangning hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it.
To return to the cold, noble and unworldly protagonist in my original book, even if he turns into a stinky rock character like classmate Murong!This feeling of being about to be abducted onto the road of prosperity...
Not knowing how long this position could last, Tangning wanted to light a row of wax for herself.
"That's right." Si Wuxiu suppressed a smile, "A-Ning is so smart, he must be able to discover the key by himself, so I don't need to figure it out, right?"
Tangning: "..."
"In this way, the bet and the demon corpse are nothing to be afraid of. Let's talk about more important issues." Si Wuxiu said with a serious face.
"What are you talking about?" Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became heavy, Tangning couldn't help feeling nervous.
"Talk about what we have for dinner." Si Wuxiu said solemnly, "I asked Yuhe to inquire about it before coming here, the most famous food in Wulu Town is Wulu Noodles, and Wulu Noodles are the best in the town, It’s Juxianglou not far from here. Since everyone is here, wouldn’t it be a waste of time not to taste the local specialties?”
Tangning looked at him confusedly, "The more important issue you mentioned is eating?"
"Isn't it important to eat?" Si Wuxiu raised his eyebrows, "People have to eat every day, not to mention running around for a whole day, if you can't reward yourself with a good meal, it would be pitiful."
"But we were clearly talking about the demon corpse just now..."
"Besides, if Aning is so hungry that he can't think of the answers he could think of, what should we do?" Si Wuxiu had a faint smile in his eyes.
Tang Ning glared, "You clearly know that I can't figure it out, and you still make fun of me! And it's you, not me, who wants to eat Wulu noodles." It happens like this every time, believe it or not, a rabbit will bite when it's in a hurry .
Si Wuxiu laughed so hard that his stomach knotted up: "I won't bother you anymore, let's eat first, and I will tell you while I eat."
"Really?" Tangning gave him a wary look, "There won't be any more weird requests, right?"
"If you want..."
"Of course I don't want it! Not at all!" Tangning hurriedly interrupted him, "Hurry up and eat, where did you say the food is delicious? Which building is that? No need to choose any more, just go to that one!"
Tangning aggressively pulled Si Wuxiu forward, and within a short distance, she saw the Juxiang Tower that Si Wuxiu just mentioned.
It is indeed the largest restaurant in the town. At first glance, the downstairs is full of people, and the aroma of food can be smelled from a long distance away.Tangning was intoxicated by the aroma of the food, and her stomach made a series of rumbling sounds.
I didn't feel so hungry before, but now I am really hungry.
Si Wuxiu also stopped teasing him, went into the restaurant and asked for an elegant seat by the window on the second floor, then said to the shop waiter: "Two bowls of Wulu noodles, and a few side dishes, hurry up."
"Okay, guest officer!" Xiaoer's movements were smooth, and it didn't take long for him to bring two large bowls of dark soup noodles, very enthusiastic, "Our signature - Wulu noodles are here!"
Tangning opened her eyes slightly, looking at the sea bowl on the table that was as big as a washbasin. What shocked him even more was that the noodles in the bowl looked like dark dishes, all black!Except for the top pinch of green vegetable leaves for decoration, everything from the soup to the noodles and even the side dishes are black.
And it also smells a bit stale.
"This...is this thing really edible?" Tangning stared at the big basin without daring to move it for a long time.
Xiao Er looked at him a little unhappily: "Guest officer, what are you talking about? The Wulu noodles in our store are the best in the whole town. You officer will know if you try it. You'll want to eat it even after you eat it!"
"I heard that Wulu noodles are made from seaside dried goods and sauces, and they taste very delicious." Si Wuxiu fetched him a pair of chopsticks, "Try it, Ah Ning? If it doesn't taste good, change it to something else."
Tangning took a deep breath and summoned up her courage, "Okay, let's have a bite first. If it doesn't taste good, let's order something normal."
Then he picked up the chopsticks, picked two noodles from the bowl, and stuffed them into his mouth with his eyes closed.
"Hmm...?" Tangning suddenly opened her eyes with a look of surprise, "It seems to be quite delicious?"
The noodles are actually slippery and chewy, and the mouthful is full of salty fragrance after biting down. The seafood in the soup is very rich, and it feels like drinking a rich seafood soup.
"That's right, I knew you would like it." Si Wuxiu smiled lightly.Normally, Tangning stayed in the seminary to attend classes, so she didn't have much time to wander outside, except that she could go out with him when she received tasks, so Si Wuxiu also took this opportunity to take him around to enjoy different beautiful scenery and delicacies.
Because seeing Tangning's surprised expression when she ate delicious food made people feel happy.
"Oh no, it's delicious!" Tangning gave a thumbs up, and simply ate the noodles with a sea bowl, her mouth was so busy that she didn't even have time to say anything.
"Eat slowly." Si Wuxiu looked at him dumbfounded, as if he hadn't eaten for three years.
"Phew..." Tangning swallowed a mouthful of noodles, and complained to Si Wuxiu, "You don't know, my Ping Hong and Ping Hu's cooking skills are very average, not as good as mine! I'm tired of eating the old ones, but fortunately I can come out with you to satisfy my cravings!"
The school cafeteria in the world is probably not very good, even if it is put into a book, it will not be much better.
In fact, the standard of food at Wang Yuan's family was already pretty good for Tangning. I didn't expect Si Wuxiu to be able to find even more delicious food. This was a surprise.
"As long as you like it." Si Wuxiu reached out to wipe off the soup from Tangning's cheeks, "We'll come here again tomorrow."
"Okay!" Tangning continued to bury her head in eating the noodles, not noticing that after he lowered his head, the person opposite him licked his soup-stained fingers.
After eating and drinking enough, Tangning patted her swollen stomach and let out a satisfied sigh.
Si Wuxiu ate at no slower pace than Tangning, and even drank the soup, but he ate quite gracefully throughout the meal. Tangning stared at classmate Si, and found that when he stood up, he didn't even have a belly.
The waist is still so tough and thin, there is no difference between before and after meals!
Obviously he ate more than himself, and even the side dishes on the table were taken care of by classmate Si.
Is this man's stomach a bottomless pit?
It's a bit enviable to eat without gaining weight.
"A-Ning?" Si Wuxiu noticed that Tangning stared at him for a long time, with envy and jealousy in her scorching gaze, she couldn't help wondering, "What are you looking at?"
Tangning subconsciously replied, "Your waist."
"Waist?" Si Wuxiu froze for a moment, then his eyes became a little complicated.
"Wait a minute, I didn't mean that!" Tangning said hastily.Judging by this expression, Student Si must have thought of going elsewhere again!
"But I haven't said anything yet." Si Wuxiu blinked and said innocently.
"Then don't say anything, just pretend I haven't said anything." Tangning strode forward, and whenever she encountered a topic that she couldn't jump over, she would step over on her own, giving full play to her ostrich spirit.
Si Wuxiu laughed and shook his head, "That's wrong, the Wang's mansion is over there." He tapped Tangning's shoulder lightly and pulled him back.
Tangning: "..."
After glancing at the other party angrily, Tangning walked towards the right path with big strides.
"When will this habit of walking away after a disagreement be corrected?" Si Wuxiu said jokingly, "A-Ning is good at everything, but this is not good."
"Don't worry about me," Tangning muttered.
"We are all sleeping on the same bed, how can we not care about it?" Si Wuxiu sighed softly, "Could it be that you turned your face and refused to recognize anyone after getting out of bed?"
Tangning was speechless, why did this sound like he was saying that he was always in chaos and finally abandoned?But they clearly did nothing, very innocent.
Just when Tangning was about to explain something to Si, someone next to her said, "Young master, son, you are finally back."
Tangning turned her head to look and found that it was Yu He and Lei Peng who had come. Their expressions looked very calm.
But Tang Ning was a little uneasy, because at this moment, he was grabbing Si Wuxiu's lapel, as if he wanted to "reasonable" with the other party, but Si Wuxiu did not resist, as if he was resigned with the front door wide open.
No matter how calm you two look, I can already see the light of gossip in your eyes!And Brother Lei Peng, didn't you object to my being too close to classmate Si before, why did you also have such an excited expression on your face?
Tangning quickly let go of her hand and turned to Yu He and the others, "Why are you here?"
During the day, when I went out to visit with Guanshi Liu, there were only Tang Ning and Si Wuxiu, while Yuhe and the others were arranged by Si Wuxiu to check around the palace and ask the servants of the Wang family for information.
"The young master and the son have not returned, so Lei Peng and I came out to take a look." Yu He said, "Liu Guanshi said that you went to the medical center, and this road is the only way to return from the medical center. I wanted to find the two along the way, but I didn't expect to be lucky enough to meet them."
"Did you find anything new in the house today?" Si Wuxiu resumed his usual indifferent face when facing his subordinates.
Yu He shook her head: "The only problem is the lake, the rest of the Wang family mansion is clean, no Gu worms were found."
"Where are the people from the Wang family?" Si Wuxiu asked.
"The Wang family can't see any problems for the time being, but there is indeed a dispute between wives and concubines outside the king, and the subordinates don't know if this news is useful. Young master and son Quan should hear something new."
Yuhe said: "My subordinates found out that Wang Yuanwai had a young and beautiful concubine who had some kind of illness last year, and she died in a blink of an eye. The servants all said in private that Mrs. Wang poisoned her. And Mrs. Wang After she died, she still refused to let her be buried, but threw her body into the lake, so there will be a saying that the concubine will turn into a demon corpse and come back to take revenge."
Tangning shook her head and said, "That demon corpse looks like a man, how did it spread like this?"
"The so-called rumors, of course, the more sensational they are, the easier it is to spread." Si Wuxiu snorted softly, "Wife and concubine rivalry is just ordinary gossip, but if it is related to demon corpses and Gu insects, and it is rumored to be miraculous, there will naturally be many rumors." people believe."
Tang Ning thought about it, and it was true, because his ex-fiancé, Bei Yiting, became popular in the convent. Everyone thought it was unheard of for him to lose to two beauties in succession, and they all wanted to watch him.
But helping her ex-fiancé become famous is not a good thing, so Tangning didn't say anything in her heart, so as not to remind classmate Si, and after returning home, he would grab the unlucky classmate Bei and beat him up again.
"Now it seems that Mrs. Wang has nothing to do with the task for the time being, not to mention that we can't hand over the person to the government without evidence." Si Wuxiu pondered, "Is there a problem with the servants of the Wang family?"
"There is nothing unusual about Wang Yuanwai's servants, but there are four guards outside Wang Yuanwai who are Qi-level warriors, all of whom are only second-level, and their strength is mediocre. They usually follow Wang Yuanwai and never approach the lake." Yu He Said, "They are newly hired, so they act very vigilantly and basically don't go to the backyard."
"If there are new recruits, there will naturally be old ones too?" Si Wuxiu sneered, "But today, Guanshi Liu didn't take us to see the former nursing home."
"Could it be that those nursing homes have already..." Tangning thought of Junior Brother Yu who was still lying in the hospital, and suddenly felt a little cold all over.
Si Wuxiu sighed and nodded: "I'm afraid that most of those people were either dead or injured, but Wang Yuanwai concealed the matter from the outside, and only said that he would faint and be bedridden. Some martial artists who are willing to sacrifice their lives will not come to help him deal with the demon corpse."
"It's too insidious!" Tangning frowned, "How could he hide such an important matter?"
If it was written clearly on the task list, Yuan Zhu's unlucky Junior Brother Yu would not rush out rashly.
"However, why do you think they died instead of turning into human beings?" Tangning asked.
Si Wuxiu said: "Because we went to the biggest medical clinic in the town today, apart from Yu Hao, there is no other martial artist who has become a human being." Yu Hao is the real name of Yu Hao, "not to mention Yu Hao is Among the people present, the cultivation level is the lowest, and only a low cultivation level can save a life, and the guards selected by the king are all at least second-level warriors, and the former guards may have a higher level."
Tangning came to her senses, "You mean, Wang Yuanwai actually knows that Gu worms only target warriors, and even the more advanced warriors, the faster they die?"
"It's not difficult to guess." Si Wuxiu said, "Nothing will happen to ordinary people approaching, but warriors may lose their lives when approaching. As long as Wang Yuanwai is not too stupid, he can naturally deduce it."
"Tell me, are those pages in Wang Yuanwai's hands?" Tangning suddenly had such a guess.
Before Si Wuxiu could speak, Lei Peng asked strangely: "What page?"
Tangning opened her mouth and looked at Si Wuxiu nervously. Oops, he accidentally slipped his mouth just now!
"Aning and I found a notebook about how to raise Gu worms." Si Wuxiu calmly took out the booklet.
Yu He took the brochure and said pleasantly, "How did the young master find out?"
"I picked it up when I went out to watch the moon with Aning last night." Si Wuxiu's calm expression made it impossible to see that he was lying, "I didn't look carefully at the time, and I only saw it this morning."
Tangning's eyes were good, and she noticed that the booklet that Si Wuxiu took out had been bound again. He must have erased the part about the origin of Gu worms in it, and I don't know when this person got it out.
Didn't they sleep together last night?
It's a pity that Tang Ning didn't have any memory of what happened after he fell asleep, otherwise, she would still have seen the picture of classmate Si doing handwork by herself.
For some reason, Tangning thought of lines like "the thread in the hands of a loving mother", and then made up Si Wuxiu's brain into Dongfang Bubai who was embroidering...
He was instantly scorched by Lei Deli.
Yuhe didn't know what Tangning was thinking, but judging by the delicate expression on his face, he already believed the young master's words - they must have had a heated fight last night and didn't have time to read the handbook, otherwise Young Master Tang would not have It would be this indescribable reaction.
What's more, they ordered hot water last night.
The more I thought about it, the more it happened, and my face turned red.
Yu He flipped through the pages and asked, "Young master, can this booklet be placed here first?"
"Yes." Si Wuxiu said casually, "You can also show Murong Du after reading it."
"Yes." Murong Du is a master of poison making, it is reasonable to entrust Gu worms to him for research, Yu He is not surprised, "Speaking of Mr. Murong, I saw him by the lake today."
Tangning was a little surprised, "Isn't he afraid of demon corpses?"
"This subordinate doesn't know." Yu He shook her head, and she was quite puzzled by this.
After what happened yesterday, everyone knew that the lake was dangerous. Even the fearless Yuanzhu students dared not approach, let alone those casual cultivators. During the day, I heard that several people bid farewell to Wang Yuanwai.
Tangning poked Si Wuxiu, "Wait and see Murong Du?"
"Look at what he does, what's so good about him?" Si Wuxiu frowned slightly.
Si Wuxiu originally planned to send Murong Du away with a letter. He really didn't like this man, but he never thought that Tangning would want to see him.
Tangning could almost feel the disgust in Classmate Si's eyes, so she said to him, "Murong stays by the lake alone, it's impossible to do nothing, maybe he has already gained something, so it won't hurt to ask about it." .Besides, they are here to help you with tasks, so you should take care of it anyway!"
"He wanted to follow him, it has nothing to do with me." Si Wuxiu said.
"Alright then, I'll go see him, you go back first," Tangning said.
"No, I'm with you."
"Don't you want to see him?" Tangning looked at him speechlessly.
Si Wuxiu sighed lightly: "I don't worry about you being together, Murong Du doesn't know us well, what if he is bought by Wang Yuanwai and feeds you to Gu worms?"
Tangning looked complicated, "Do you think Murong Du is that kind of person? Also, if he really wants to attack me, wouldn't I fight back?"
If you can't beat him, he can always run.
"It's hard to say, after all, Aning has a kind heart." Si Wuxiu was a little worried.
"Don't call me the kind of fool who would count the money after being sold out, okay?" Tangning glared at him angrily.
"How could it be? I only said that Aning was kind-hearted, but I didn't say anything else." Si Wuxiu smiled.
"But that's not how you act." The expression was much more exaggerated than the lines, and Tangning was not blind. Classmate Si was full of drama. If he was born in modern times, he might have won an Oscar.
Si Wuxiu chuckled lightly: "So let's go together, lest you be cheated and help count the money."
Tangning glared at him again. You are finally willing to speak your mind. After all, you still think I'm stupid.
She wasn't that stupid in the first place, but after being repeatedly emphasized by you, Tangning almost had self-doubt.
Seeing her young master and Tangning flirting again, Yu He said with a wink, "This subordinate is very interested in this notebook, and I want to go back to my room to read it carefully, so I won't bother you two."
Lei Peng also said: "The young master and the young master should be more careful when they go to the lake."
The implication was that he didn't intend to be a light bulb for Tangning and the others.
It's very informative.
In the end, only Tangning and Si Wuxiu were left. They bickered and walked to the lakeside.
As the sun set, the orange-red light shone on the surface of the lake, without any sparkle. The black and turbid lake water seemed to be able to swallow everything, exuding a strange atmosphere.
And near the lake, away from the range of the demon corpse's attack, Murong Du hadn't left, as if he was lowering his head and playing with something.
"Huh?" Tangning walked over curiously, "What are you holding?"
Murong held an oblate vessel in one hand: "It's the corpses of Gu insects. I tried to poison some of them to death, and I'm going to take them back for research. Do you want them too? I can give you two."
Tangning saw several black insect corpses in the bowl, and almost spit out her dinner.
What the hell is this? The worms are already disgusting, but these Gu worms still have human faces!
Just scared to death!
Yesterday when the Gu worms gathered into a black mist, they flew very fast, and it was covered in darkness, so Tangning didn't see clearly. Now he regretted that he suggested to find Murong Du just now.
Seeing such an indescribable Gu worm, maybe he will have nightmares at night.
Tangning immediately shook her head at Murong Du, "No need, just keep these insect corpses. If you find something out of your research, just let us know."
"Okay." Murong Du didn't say much, ready to pack up and go back.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the little scorpion in Tangning's sleeve began to poke around again, sneaking out.The tail flicked slightly to welcome Murong Du.
"Hey!" Tangning held Xiao Hei's two pincers and taught him seriously, "You can't just run out casually, what should you do if you scare someone?"
Murong Du didn't care about it, and said with interest: "It is so sensitive to poison, maybe it also reacts to the human face Gu."
As he spoke, he lifted the cover again, and brought the body of the Gu insect in front of the little scorpion.It was already too late when Tangning wanted to stop him, and Xiao Hei, who was lying quietly on the back of Tangning's hand just now, jumped into Murong Du's bowl like a chicken blood.
The little scorpion hugged the corpse of the human-faced Gu with its pincers, gorging on the body of the human-faced Gu with intoxication. The Gu, which feeds on the blood energy of warriors, was immediately sucked back by Xiao Hei, and its body collapsed in an instant.
Xiao Hei ate so much that even the shell was shiny, and he seemed very satisfied.
Tangning poked it angrily, "Am I usually starving you or something?"
Xiao Hei opened his pincers slightly, and lay obediently on Tangning's hand, intermittent consciousness came: "Full...delicious..."
Tangning really got used to it, she could eat anything like that!
Murong Du said: "Although the Gu worms do not carry poison, judging from the reaction of the soul scorpion, these human-faced Gu are also raised with poison. If you know the formula of the nourishment, and reversely find the medicine that can counteract it, you should be able to prepare it." Produce the poison to restrain Gu insects."
"That's right!" Tangning tapped her palm, "Almost forgot, there's another trick!"
It's because Tangning is still not familiar with her major, so she forgot that there is a method of reverse derivation.Moreover, he is usually used to following Si Wuxiu's train of thought, so if classmate Si didn't mention it, he wouldn't be able to remember it either.
It's not okay to go on like this, relying too much on others will degenerate oneself, Tangning doesn't want to be a rice bug.
Immediately, he used his amazing memory and recited the formula for cultivating Gu people to Murong Du: "This recipe was discovered by Wuxiu and I during our investigation, and it should be the formula for cultivating human-faced Gu."
"That's right, this is it!" Murong Du's eyes lit up, and he held onto Tangning's shoulders tightly, "With it, I can prepare the poison, just give me three days!"
"Great!" Tangning also felt very excited.
Of those present, only one seemed uninterested.Si Wuxiu pulled Tangning's shoulders and turned to him, and said to Murong Du, "Speak as you speak, don't move."
Murong Du was slightly taken aback, looking a little dazed.
Tangning quickly said to him, "It's nothing, he's just too nervous."
Murong Du came to a sudden: "I understand, my body is full of poison, ordinary people will get nervous when they see it."
Although Si Wuxiu was definitely not worried about this, Tangning felt that it would be better for Murong Du to let the misunderstanding continue, otherwise Si's male god image would collapse again.
"It shouldn't be too late, I'll go back and study the formula first." Murong Du said.He still held the remains of the insect corpse in his hand. Although Xiao Hei had almost gnawed it, it could still be used to verify the formula and make use of waste.
When Murong walked away alone, Si Wuxiu said indifferently and desolately: "I just felt that I seemed a little redundant."
Tang Ning's head was about to grow dizzy, "We were talking about business just now. The poison to restrain Gu worms is about to be prepared. Aren't you happy?"
"Why are you happy?" Si Wuxiu said, "A-Ning has a hot chat with others, but I can't get in a word."
Tangning: "..."
Don't tell me you're jealous!
Si Wuxiu's eyes were dim, his long eyelashes moved slightly, thousands of words could not be worth his slight sigh, it was as if the silence here was louder than the sound.
After a while, Tangning finally gave in, "If something like this happens again next time, I'll definitely ask for your opinion first, and leave the job of endorsement to you, okay?"
"Hmm." Si Wuxiu instantly recovered her smile, the corners of her lips turned up, as if she had never been depressed.
This acting is really amazing.
Classmates, the medicine cannot be stopped!
"A'Ning, did you forget something?" Si Wuxiu looked at Tangning calmly after regaining his composure.
"Huh? What did I forget?" Tangning didn't know why.
"Before the meal, didn't you still ask me why I was so confident about the bet?" Si Wuxiu reminded him.
"Yeah, why did I forget!" Tangning slapped her forehead, because the Wulu Noodles were so delicious, and he forgot the question after the meal.Looking at Si Wuxiu suspiciously: "You didn't procrastinate on purpose, did you?"
"It's clear that you were only focused on eating noodles and forgot about me, why did I procrastinate on purpose?" Si Wuxiu said innocently.
Tangning ignored the other person's expression and asked, "Then we can talk about it now, right?"
"It's getting dark, how about we go back to the house and talk about it?" Si Wuxiu said.
"No, tell me now!" Tangning felt that if she went back like this, she would definitely be fooled by the other party in the future, so she had to ask now while he was willing to talk.
Being a teammate with such a slippery person, Tangning felt that it was very difficult for her.
Si Wuxiu curled his lips slightly: "Do you still remember what I said, the origin of the human face Gu may be related to my father?"
Tangning nodded, "I remember."
This was also a point that made him suspicious, because classmate Si hid all the relevant information, and Tangning still didn't know how he connected the two.
"My father is Yuan Zhan." Si Wuxiu said suddenly.
Tangning was a little stunned, why did she mention her life experience so unexpectedly?
Si Wuxiu flicked his head on his head in a funny way: "Why is this expression so frightening?"
"Yes...a little bit." Tangning felt a little dizzy. Although he had spoilers for the original book, it felt very different to hear him admit it to himself.
Why did Si Wuxiu tell herself such a big secret so easily?
Si Wuxiu rubbed his hair: "It's you who said that I also want to tell you about the origin of the Gu worm. Why did I just start it, and you have this expression? Are you still listening?"
Although Tangning was still in disbelief, she still nodded firmly, "Listen!"
"Then I'll continue." Si Wuxiu said, "I said just now that my father is Emperor Yuan, and he has something to do with the origin of Gu worms."
Tangning frowned, "So you hid Yuhe and the others because the Gu worms came from the palace? You once said that Yuhe was sent by your father." Although it was mentioned in the plot, Ke Si Wuxiu did reveal this to Tangning before.
"Smart." Si Wuxiu praised, "I really don't want them to know that Gu worms are related to the palace."
Tangning's brows were still furrowed as she tried to think, "I remember, you asked Guanshi Liu if the previous owner of the house was an official before. As you guessed."
"So if I tell you that I already know the identity of the Gu keeper, and I want to explain it clearly to you, I can't get around my father's identity anyway." Si Wuxiu said, "And the origin of the Gu worm is also A clue that I could win the bet."
"That's why you confessed your identity to me." Tangning finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Then what clues did you get?"
"Don't worry, I'll tell you about this later." Si Wuxiu said with a gloomy gaze, "Look, I even told you such an important secret, at least compared to Murong Du, I treat Aning even more. Sincerely?"
Tangning looked at him speechlessly, halfway through the conversation, can't you not take your private goods with you? "We're so close, even if you don't explain it clearly, I know that you are more sincere to me than anyone else," Tangning said.
This wasn't nonsense, Tangning could feel it.
It was like Si Wuxiu was willing to tell Tangning something that his subordinates were unwilling to tell.
Si Wuxiu smiled with satisfaction, and continued: "I guess that demon corpse is the corpse of the Gu raiser. Didn't the common people spread the rumor that the former owner of the house was thrown into the lake by the younger generations after his death? Then The demon corpse is probably him. He was an official in the capital, and his martial arts cultivation is at least at the Dan level, so the Gu worms will choose to use his body as a nest to control him."
"Manipulation?" Tangning thought of something, "By the way, the book I read yesterday also said that Gu worms exist to manipulate others. I thought it was strange at the time that Gu worms would devour blood energy. People will die, how to manipulate it."
It turned out that it was not the living people who were manipulating, but the dead bodies.
"So the person who tore off the inner pages is the one who used Gu worms to control the demon corpse. He must still be in this mansion." Si Wuxiu finally concluded.
This inference was very exciting, and Tangning felt a sense of enlightenment. He patted Si Wuxiu hard, "I really have you, I want it all! No wonder you agreed to Miss Long's bet, you have a good chance of winning! "
Si Wuxiu lowered her head and smiled: "I can't compare to Aning, Aning is the real one, even if you take off your clothes, you can find the small attic that is hidden so deep."
Tangning: "..."
Stop talking about undressing!
"Stay with me tonight?" Si Wuxiu smiled.
"No, Manager Liu should have arranged for craftsmen to repair my door tonight," Tangning said with a blank expression.
"Oh, is that so?" Si Wuxiu's ending voice rose slightly.
Tangning immediately became vigilant.
"I asked Yuhe to tell Guanshi Liu that there is no need to rush to repair that door, we can just make do with one room." Si Wuxiu said to him, "So I guess the door is still broken when you go back now. of."
"It's so despicable!" Tangning said angrily.
"Isn't this just right, what if a cat enters your room again, at least I can protect you." Si Wuxiu said with a sincere tone.
Tangning sighed deeply, cats can be in any danger, the most dangerous person is clearly you.
This feeling of being arranged by someone...
After returning, Tangning was not surprised to find that the door of his room was still empty, so she could only carry his small bag and continue to squeeze into the same room with Si Wuxiu.
After washing up and going to bed, Tangning made a partition in the middle with a quilt: "You are not allowed to cross the boundary while sleeping!"
His expression was fierce.
Si Wuxiu was amused by him: "Okay."
Tangning looked at him suspiciously, why did she agree so quickly?
"I don't cross the line, but what if Aning crosses the line?" Si Wuxiu looked a little worried, "You were the one who came into my arms this morning."
"It was a misunderstanding in the morning. I hadn't woken up at the time, and I will never do it again tonight." Tangning slept against the wall, and he didn't believe that he could sleep on the other side this way.
Si Wuxiu held back a smile: "That's not necessarily the case."
Tangning glared at him. Unless you roll over to my side in the middle of the night, nothing will happen, okay? My brother's sleeping posture is still very honest.
However, before he could say anything, he saw Si Wuxiu's eyes were slightly cold, turned over and got off the bed, picked up the sword on the table and rushed out like a sharp arrow.
Tangning was stunned for a moment, thinking that classmate Si had also learned his habit of going out without saying anything, but he realized in an instant that something was wrong!
Tangning immediately followed Si Wuxiu out of bed. Just as she was about to step out of the room, she heard the clear sound of running water from the roof.
Sure enough, there is a situation!
The author has something to say: the second day
456: Well, let me say, you got into my arms yourself.
Tang: I dreamed about the monster octopus again yesterday, and I could be pulled out by its tentacles after hiding in the hole... Do you think I will believe you?
From his willingness to agree to the bet to his unworried expression when he mentioned the demon corpse, Tangning felt that there must be something weird about it.Si Wuxiu must have found a clue to deal with the demon corpse, so he showed such a confident expression.
But from last night's spying until now, Si Wuxiu was always with Tangning. What they saw and heard and the information they received were all the same. But while Tangning was still at a loss, classmate Si already had a plan in his mind.
The gap between people, why is it so big!
What link did I miss... Tangning thought hard, going through all the details from last night to today in her mind, but she still found nothing.
"Want to know?" Si Wuxiu looked at Tangning with interest, like a hunter waiting for a rabbit, with the corners of his mouth slightly curved.
"Stop it, don't talk yet!" Tangning glared at him, "Anyway, your next sentence is definitely asking me to make an exchange, so I won't be fooled by you."
He had already promised the other party that "the discussion is enough", Tangning thought with her ass and knew that if Si Wuxiu raised the conditions again, it would be more embarrassing than this. Maybe it would be something like "help me take a bath" or "accompany me in double cultivation" of.
The appearance is so cold and handsome, but the heart always falls below the lower limit. If Tangning hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it.
To return to the cold, noble and unworldly protagonist in my original book, even if he turns into a stinky rock character like classmate Murong!This feeling of being about to be abducted onto the road of prosperity...
Not knowing how long this position could last, Tangning wanted to light a row of wax for herself.
"That's right." Si Wuxiu suppressed a smile, "A-Ning is so smart, he must be able to discover the key by himself, so I don't need to figure it out, right?"
Tangning: "..."
"In this way, the bet and the demon corpse are nothing to be afraid of. Let's talk about more important issues." Si Wuxiu said with a serious face.
"What are you talking about?" Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became heavy, Tangning couldn't help feeling nervous.
"Talk about what we have for dinner." Si Wuxiu said solemnly, "I asked Yuhe to inquire about it before coming here, the most famous food in Wulu Town is Wulu Noodles, and Wulu Noodles are the best in the town, It’s Juxianglou not far from here. Since everyone is here, wouldn’t it be a waste of time not to taste the local specialties?”
Tangning looked at him confusedly, "The more important issue you mentioned is eating?"
"Isn't it important to eat?" Si Wuxiu raised his eyebrows, "People have to eat every day, not to mention running around for a whole day, if you can't reward yourself with a good meal, it would be pitiful."
"But we were clearly talking about the demon corpse just now..."
"Besides, if Aning is so hungry that he can't think of the answers he could think of, what should we do?" Si Wuxiu had a faint smile in his eyes.
Tang Ning glared, "You clearly know that I can't figure it out, and you still make fun of me! And it's you, not me, who wants to eat Wulu noodles." It happens like this every time, believe it or not, a rabbit will bite when it's in a hurry .
Si Wuxiu laughed so hard that his stomach knotted up: "I won't bother you anymore, let's eat first, and I will tell you while I eat."
"Really?" Tangning gave him a wary look, "There won't be any more weird requests, right?"
"If you want..."
"Of course I don't want it! Not at all!" Tangning hurriedly interrupted him, "Hurry up and eat, where did you say the food is delicious? Which building is that? No need to choose any more, just go to that one!"
Tangning aggressively pulled Si Wuxiu forward, and within a short distance, she saw the Juxiang Tower that Si Wuxiu just mentioned.
It is indeed the largest restaurant in the town. At first glance, the downstairs is full of people, and the aroma of food can be smelled from a long distance away.Tangning was intoxicated by the aroma of the food, and her stomach made a series of rumbling sounds.
I didn't feel so hungry before, but now I am really hungry.
Si Wuxiu also stopped teasing him, went into the restaurant and asked for an elegant seat by the window on the second floor, then said to the shop waiter: "Two bowls of Wulu noodles, and a few side dishes, hurry up."
"Okay, guest officer!" Xiaoer's movements were smooth, and it didn't take long for him to bring two large bowls of dark soup noodles, very enthusiastic, "Our signature - Wulu noodles are here!"
Tangning opened her eyes slightly, looking at the sea bowl on the table that was as big as a washbasin. What shocked him even more was that the noodles in the bowl looked like dark dishes, all black!Except for the top pinch of green vegetable leaves for decoration, everything from the soup to the noodles and even the side dishes are black.
And it also smells a bit stale.
"This...is this thing really edible?" Tangning stared at the big basin without daring to move it for a long time.
Xiao Er looked at him a little unhappily: "Guest officer, what are you talking about? The Wulu noodles in our store are the best in the whole town. You officer will know if you try it. You'll want to eat it even after you eat it!"
"I heard that Wulu noodles are made from seaside dried goods and sauces, and they taste very delicious." Si Wuxiu fetched him a pair of chopsticks, "Try it, Ah Ning? If it doesn't taste good, change it to something else."
Tangning took a deep breath and summoned up her courage, "Okay, let's have a bite first. If it doesn't taste good, let's order something normal."
Then he picked up the chopsticks, picked two noodles from the bowl, and stuffed them into his mouth with his eyes closed.
"Hmm...?" Tangning suddenly opened her eyes with a look of surprise, "It seems to be quite delicious?"
The noodles are actually slippery and chewy, and the mouthful is full of salty fragrance after biting down. The seafood in the soup is very rich, and it feels like drinking a rich seafood soup.
"That's right, I knew you would like it." Si Wuxiu smiled lightly.Normally, Tangning stayed in the seminary to attend classes, so she didn't have much time to wander outside, except that she could go out with him when she received tasks, so Si Wuxiu also took this opportunity to take him around to enjoy different beautiful scenery and delicacies.
Because seeing Tangning's surprised expression when she ate delicious food made people feel happy.
"Oh no, it's delicious!" Tangning gave a thumbs up, and simply ate the noodles with a sea bowl, her mouth was so busy that she didn't even have time to say anything.
"Eat slowly." Si Wuxiu looked at him dumbfounded, as if he hadn't eaten for three years.
"Phew..." Tangning swallowed a mouthful of noodles, and complained to Si Wuxiu, "You don't know, my Ping Hong and Ping Hu's cooking skills are very average, not as good as mine! I'm tired of eating the old ones, but fortunately I can come out with you to satisfy my cravings!"
The school cafeteria in the world is probably not very good, even if it is put into a book, it will not be much better.
In fact, the standard of food at Wang Yuan's family was already pretty good for Tangning. I didn't expect Si Wuxiu to be able to find even more delicious food. This was a surprise.
"As long as you like it." Si Wuxiu reached out to wipe off the soup from Tangning's cheeks, "We'll come here again tomorrow."
"Okay!" Tangning continued to bury her head in eating the noodles, not noticing that after he lowered his head, the person opposite him licked his soup-stained fingers.
After eating and drinking enough, Tangning patted her swollen stomach and let out a satisfied sigh.
Si Wuxiu ate at no slower pace than Tangning, and even drank the soup, but he ate quite gracefully throughout the meal. Tangning stared at classmate Si, and found that when he stood up, he didn't even have a belly.
The waist is still so tough and thin, there is no difference between before and after meals!
Obviously he ate more than himself, and even the side dishes on the table were taken care of by classmate Si.
Is this man's stomach a bottomless pit?
It's a bit enviable to eat without gaining weight.
"A-Ning?" Si Wuxiu noticed that Tangning stared at him for a long time, with envy and jealousy in her scorching gaze, she couldn't help wondering, "What are you looking at?"
Tangning subconsciously replied, "Your waist."
"Waist?" Si Wuxiu froze for a moment, then his eyes became a little complicated.
"Wait a minute, I didn't mean that!" Tangning said hastily.Judging by this expression, Student Si must have thought of going elsewhere again!
"But I haven't said anything yet." Si Wuxiu blinked and said innocently.
"Then don't say anything, just pretend I haven't said anything." Tangning strode forward, and whenever she encountered a topic that she couldn't jump over, she would step over on her own, giving full play to her ostrich spirit.
Si Wuxiu laughed and shook his head, "That's wrong, the Wang's mansion is over there." He tapped Tangning's shoulder lightly and pulled him back.
Tangning: "..."
After glancing at the other party angrily, Tangning walked towards the right path with big strides.
"When will this habit of walking away after a disagreement be corrected?" Si Wuxiu said jokingly, "A-Ning is good at everything, but this is not good."
"Don't worry about me," Tangning muttered.
"We are all sleeping on the same bed, how can we not care about it?" Si Wuxiu sighed softly, "Could it be that you turned your face and refused to recognize anyone after getting out of bed?"
Tangning was speechless, why did this sound like he was saying that he was always in chaos and finally abandoned?But they clearly did nothing, very innocent.
Just when Tangning was about to explain something to Si, someone next to her said, "Young master, son, you are finally back."
Tangning turned her head to look and found that it was Yu He and Lei Peng who had come. Their expressions looked very calm.
But Tang Ning was a little uneasy, because at this moment, he was grabbing Si Wuxiu's lapel, as if he wanted to "reasonable" with the other party, but Si Wuxiu did not resist, as if he was resigned with the front door wide open.
No matter how calm you two look, I can already see the light of gossip in your eyes!And Brother Lei Peng, didn't you object to my being too close to classmate Si before, why did you also have such an excited expression on your face?
Tangning quickly let go of her hand and turned to Yu He and the others, "Why are you here?"
During the day, when I went out to visit with Guanshi Liu, there were only Tang Ning and Si Wuxiu, while Yuhe and the others were arranged by Si Wuxiu to check around the palace and ask the servants of the Wang family for information.
"The young master and the son have not returned, so Lei Peng and I came out to take a look." Yu He said, "Liu Guanshi said that you went to the medical center, and this road is the only way to return from the medical center. I wanted to find the two along the way, but I didn't expect to be lucky enough to meet them."
"Did you find anything new in the house today?" Si Wuxiu resumed his usual indifferent face when facing his subordinates.
Yu He shook her head: "The only problem is the lake, the rest of the Wang family mansion is clean, no Gu worms were found."
"Where are the people from the Wang family?" Si Wuxiu asked.
"The Wang family can't see any problems for the time being, but there is indeed a dispute between wives and concubines outside the king, and the subordinates don't know if this news is useful. Young master and son Quan should hear something new."
Yuhe said: "My subordinates found out that Wang Yuanwai had a young and beautiful concubine who had some kind of illness last year, and she died in a blink of an eye. The servants all said in private that Mrs. Wang poisoned her. And Mrs. Wang After she died, she still refused to let her be buried, but threw her body into the lake, so there will be a saying that the concubine will turn into a demon corpse and come back to take revenge."
Tangning shook her head and said, "That demon corpse looks like a man, how did it spread like this?"
"The so-called rumors, of course, the more sensational they are, the easier it is to spread." Si Wuxiu snorted softly, "Wife and concubine rivalry is just ordinary gossip, but if it is related to demon corpses and Gu insects, and it is rumored to be miraculous, there will naturally be many rumors." people believe."
Tang Ning thought about it, and it was true, because his ex-fiancé, Bei Yiting, became popular in the convent. Everyone thought it was unheard of for him to lose to two beauties in succession, and they all wanted to watch him.
But helping her ex-fiancé become famous is not a good thing, so Tangning didn't say anything in her heart, so as not to remind classmate Si, and after returning home, he would grab the unlucky classmate Bei and beat him up again.
"Now it seems that Mrs. Wang has nothing to do with the task for the time being, not to mention that we can't hand over the person to the government without evidence." Si Wuxiu pondered, "Is there a problem with the servants of the Wang family?"
"There is nothing unusual about Wang Yuanwai's servants, but there are four guards outside Wang Yuanwai who are Qi-level warriors, all of whom are only second-level, and their strength is mediocre. They usually follow Wang Yuanwai and never approach the lake." Yu He Said, "They are newly hired, so they act very vigilantly and basically don't go to the backyard."
"If there are new recruits, there will naturally be old ones too?" Si Wuxiu sneered, "But today, Guanshi Liu didn't take us to see the former nursing home."
"Could it be that those nursing homes have already..." Tangning thought of Junior Brother Yu who was still lying in the hospital, and suddenly felt a little cold all over.
Si Wuxiu sighed and nodded: "I'm afraid that most of those people were either dead or injured, but Wang Yuanwai concealed the matter from the outside, and only said that he would faint and be bedridden. Some martial artists who are willing to sacrifice their lives will not come to help him deal with the demon corpse."
"It's too insidious!" Tangning frowned, "How could he hide such an important matter?"
If it was written clearly on the task list, Yuan Zhu's unlucky Junior Brother Yu would not rush out rashly.
"However, why do you think they died instead of turning into human beings?" Tangning asked.
Si Wuxiu said: "Because we went to the biggest medical clinic in the town today, apart from Yu Hao, there is no other martial artist who has become a human being." Yu Hao is the real name of Yu Hao, "not to mention Yu Hao is Among the people present, the cultivation level is the lowest, and only a low cultivation level can save a life, and the guards selected by the king are all at least second-level warriors, and the former guards may have a higher level."
Tangning came to her senses, "You mean, Wang Yuanwai actually knows that Gu worms only target warriors, and even the more advanced warriors, the faster they die?"
"It's not difficult to guess." Si Wuxiu said, "Nothing will happen to ordinary people approaching, but warriors may lose their lives when approaching. As long as Wang Yuanwai is not too stupid, he can naturally deduce it."
"Tell me, are those pages in Wang Yuanwai's hands?" Tangning suddenly had such a guess.
Before Si Wuxiu could speak, Lei Peng asked strangely: "What page?"
Tangning opened her mouth and looked at Si Wuxiu nervously. Oops, he accidentally slipped his mouth just now!
"Aning and I found a notebook about how to raise Gu worms." Si Wuxiu calmly took out the booklet.
Yu He took the brochure and said pleasantly, "How did the young master find out?"
"I picked it up when I went out to watch the moon with Aning last night." Si Wuxiu's calm expression made it impossible to see that he was lying, "I didn't look carefully at the time, and I only saw it this morning."
Tangning's eyes were good, and she noticed that the booklet that Si Wuxiu took out had been bound again. He must have erased the part about the origin of Gu worms in it, and I don't know when this person got it out.
Didn't they sleep together last night?
It's a pity that Tang Ning didn't have any memory of what happened after he fell asleep, otherwise, she would still have seen the picture of classmate Si doing handwork by herself.
For some reason, Tangning thought of lines like "the thread in the hands of a loving mother", and then made up Si Wuxiu's brain into Dongfang Bubai who was embroidering...
He was instantly scorched by Lei Deli.
Yuhe didn't know what Tangning was thinking, but judging by the delicate expression on his face, he already believed the young master's words - they must have had a heated fight last night and didn't have time to read the handbook, otherwise Young Master Tang would not have It would be this indescribable reaction.
What's more, they ordered hot water last night.
The more I thought about it, the more it happened, and my face turned red.
Yu He flipped through the pages and asked, "Young master, can this booklet be placed here first?"
"Yes." Si Wuxiu said casually, "You can also show Murong Du after reading it."
"Yes." Murong Du is a master of poison making, it is reasonable to entrust Gu worms to him for research, Yu He is not surprised, "Speaking of Mr. Murong, I saw him by the lake today."
Tangning was a little surprised, "Isn't he afraid of demon corpses?"
"This subordinate doesn't know." Yu He shook her head, and she was quite puzzled by this.
After what happened yesterday, everyone knew that the lake was dangerous. Even the fearless Yuanzhu students dared not approach, let alone those casual cultivators. During the day, I heard that several people bid farewell to Wang Yuanwai.
Tangning poked Si Wuxiu, "Wait and see Murong Du?"
"Look at what he does, what's so good about him?" Si Wuxiu frowned slightly.
Si Wuxiu originally planned to send Murong Du away with a letter. He really didn't like this man, but he never thought that Tangning would want to see him.
Tangning could almost feel the disgust in Classmate Si's eyes, so she said to him, "Murong stays by the lake alone, it's impossible to do nothing, maybe he has already gained something, so it won't hurt to ask about it." .Besides, they are here to help you with tasks, so you should take care of it anyway!"
"He wanted to follow him, it has nothing to do with me." Si Wuxiu said.
"Alright then, I'll go see him, you go back first," Tangning said.
"No, I'm with you."
"Don't you want to see him?" Tangning looked at him speechlessly.
Si Wuxiu sighed lightly: "I don't worry about you being together, Murong Du doesn't know us well, what if he is bought by Wang Yuanwai and feeds you to Gu worms?"
Tangning looked complicated, "Do you think Murong Du is that kind of person? Also, if he really wants to attack me, wouldn't I fight back?"
If you can't beat him, he can always run.
"It's hard to say, after all, Aning has a kind heart." Si Wuxiu was a little worried.
"Don't call me the kind of fool who would count the money after being sold out, okay?" Tangning glared at him angrily.
"How could it be? I only said that Aning was kind-hearted, but I didn't say anything else." Si Wuxiu smiled.
"But that's not how you act." The expression was much more exaggerated than the lines, and Tangning was not blind. Classmate Si was full of drama. If he was born in modern times, he might have won an Oscar.
Si Wuxiu chuckled lightly: "So let's go together, lest you be cheated and help count the money."
Tangning glared at him again. You are finally willing to speak your mind. After all, you still think I'm stupid.
She wasn't that stupid in the first place, but after being repeatedly emphasized by you, Tangning almost had self-doubt.
Seeing her young master and Tangning flirting again, Yu He said with a wink, "This subordinate is very interested in this notebook, and I want to go back to my room to read it carefully, so I won't bother you two."
Lei Peng also said: "The young master and the young master should be more careful when they go to the lake."
The implication was that he didn't intend to be a light bulb for Tangning and the others.
It's very informative.
In the end, only Tangning and Si Wuxiu were left. They bickered and walked to the lakeside.
As the sun set, the orange-red light shone on the surface of the lake, without any sparkle. The black and turbid lake water seemed to be able to swallow everything, exuding a strange atmosphere.
And near the lake, away from the range of the demon corpse's attack, Murong Du hadn't left, as if he was lowering his head and playing with something.
"Huh?" Tangning walked over curiously, "What are you holding?"
Murong held an oblate vessel in one hand: "It's the corpses of Gu insects. I tried to poison some of them to death, and I'm going to take them back for research. Do you want them too? I can give you two."
Tangning saw several black insect corpses in the bowl, and almost spit out her dinner.
What the hell is this? The worms are already disgusting, but these Gu worms still have human faces!
Just scared to death!
Yesterday when the Gu worms gathered into a black mist, they flew very fast, and it was covered in darkness, so Tangning didn't see clearly. Now he regretted that he suggested to find Murong Du just now.
Seeing such an indescribable Gu worm, maybe he will have nightmares at night.
Tangning immediately shook her head at Murong Du, "No need, just keep these insect corpses. If you find something out of your research, just let us know."
"Okay." Murong Du didn't say much, ready to pack up and go back.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the little scorpion in Tangning's sleeve began to poke around again, sneaking out.The tail flicked slightly to welcome Murong Du.
"Hey!" Tangning held Xiao Hei's two pincers and taught him seriously, "You can't just run out casually, what should you do if you scare someone?"
Murong Du didn't care about it, and said with interest: "It is so sensitive to poison, maybe it also reacts to the human face Gu."
As he spoke, he lifted the cover again, and brought the body of the Gu insect in front of the little scorpion.It was already too late when Tangning wanted to stop him, and Xiao Hei, who was lying quietly on the back of Tangning's hand just now, jumped into Murong Du's bowl like a chicken blood.
The little scorpion hugged the corpse of the human-faced Gu with its pincers, gorging on the body of the human-faced Gu with intoxication. The Gu, which feeds on the blood energy of warriors, was immediately sucked back by Xiao Hei, and its body collapsed in an instant.
Xiao Hei ate so much that even the shell was shiny, and he seemed very satisfied.
Tangning poked it angrily, "Am I usually starving you or something?"
Xiao Hei opened his pincers slightly, and lay obediently on Tangning's hand, intermittent consciousness came: "Full...delicious..."
Tangning really got used to it, she could eat anything like that!
Murong Du said: "Although the Gu worms do not carry poison, judging from the reaction of the soul scorpion, these human-faced Gu are also raised with poison. If you know the formula of the nourishment, and reversely find the medicine that can counteract it, you should be able to prepare it." Produce the poison to restrain Gu insects."
"That's right!" Tangning tapped her palm, "Almost forgot, there's another trick!"
It's because Tangning is still not familiar with her major, so she forgot that there is a method of reverse derivation.Moreover, he is usually used to following Si Wuxiu's train of thought, so if classmate Si didn't mention it, he wouldn't be able to remember it either.
It's not okay to go on like this, relying too much on others will degenerate oneself, Tangning doesn't want to be a rice bug.
Immediately, he used his amazing memory and recited the formula for cultivating Gu people to Murong Du: "This recipe was discovered by Wuxiu and I during our investigation, and it should be the formula for cultivating human-faced Gu."
"That's right, this is it!" Murong Du's eyes lit up, and he held onto Tangning's shoulders tightly, "With it, I can prepare the poison, just give me three days!"
"Great!" Tangning also felt very excited.
Of those present, only one seemed uninterested.Si Wuxiu pulled Tangning's shoulders and turned to him, and said to Murong Du, "Speak as you speak, don't move."
Murong Du was slightly taken aback, looking a little dazed.
Tangning quickly said to him, "It's nothing, he's just too nervous."
Murong Du came to a sudden: "I understand, my body is full of poison, ordinary people will get nervous when they see it."
Although Si Wuxiu was definitely not worried about this, Tangning felt that it would be better for Murong Du to let the misunderstanding continue, otherwise Si's male god image would collapse again.
"It shouldn't be too late, I'll go back and study the formula first." Murong Du said.He still held the remains of the insect corpse in his hand. Although Xiao Hei had almost gnawed it, it could still be used to verify the formula and make use of waste.
When Murong walked away alone, Si Wuxiu said indifferently and desolately: "I just felt that I seemed a little redundant."
Tang Ning's head was about to grow dizzy, "We were talking about business just now. The poison to restrain Gu worms is about to be prepared. Aren't you happy?"
"Why are you happy?" Si Wuxiu said, "A-Ning has a hot chat with others, but I can't get in a word."
Tangning: "..."
Don't tell me you're jealous!
Si Wuxiu's eyes were dim, his long eyelashes moved slightly, thousands of words could not be worth his slight sigh, it was as if the silence here was louder than the sound.
After a while, Tangning finally gave in, "If something like this happens again next time, I'll definitely ask for your opinion first, and leave the job of endorsement to you, okay?"
"Hmm." Si Wuxiu instantly recovered her smile, the corners of her lips turned up, as if she had never been depressed.
This acting is really amazing.
Classmates, the medicine cannot be stopped!
"A'Ning, did you forget something?" Si Wuxiu looked at Tangning calmly after regaining his composure.
"Huh? What did I forget?" Tangning didn't know why.
"Before the meal, didn't you still ask me why I was so confident about the bet?" Si Wuxiu reminded him.
"Yeah, why did I forget!" Tangning slapped her forehead, because the Wulu Noodles were so delicious, and he forgot the question after the meal.Looking at Si Wuxiu suspiciously: "You didn't procrastinate on purpose, did you?"
"It's clear that you were only focused on eating noodles and forgot about me, why did I procrastinate on purpose?" Si Wuxiu said innocently.
Tangning ignored the other person's expression and asked, "Then we can talk about it now, right?"
"It's getting dark, how about we go back to the house and talk about it?" Si Wuxiu said.
"No, tell me now!" Tangning felt that if she went back like this, she would definitely be fooled by the other party in the future, so she had to ask now while he was willing to talk.
Being a teammate with such a slippery person, Tangning felt that it was very difficult for her.
Si Wuxiu curled his lips slightly: "Do you still remember what I said, the origin of the human face Gu may be related to my father?"
Tangning nodded, "I remember."
This was also a point that made him suspicious, because classmate Si hid all the relevant information, and Tangning still didn't know how he connected the two.
"My father is Yuan Zhan." Si Wuxiu said suddenly.
Tangning was a little stunned, why did she mention her life experience so unexpectedly?
Si Wuxiu flicked his head on his head in a funny way: "Why is this expression so frightening?"
"Yes...a little bit." Tangning felt a little dizzy. Although he had spoilers for the original book, it felt very different to hear him admit it to himself.
Why did Si Wuxiu tell herself such a big secret so easily?
Si Wuxiu rubbed his hair: "It's you who said that I also want to tell you about the origin of the Gu worm. Why did I just start it, and you have this expression? Are you still listening?"
Although Tangning was still in disbelief, she still nodded firmly, "Listen!"
"Then I'll continue." Si Wuxiu said, "I said just now that my father is Emperor Yuan, and he has something to do with the origin of Gu worms."
Tangning frowned, "So you hid Yuhe and the others because the Gu worms came from the palace? You once said that Yuhe was sent by your father." Although it was mentioned in the plot, Ke Si Wuxiu did reveal this to Tangning before.
"Smart." Si Wuxiu praised, "I really don't want them to know that Gu worms are related to the palace."
Tangning's brows were still furrowed as she tried to think, "I remember, you asked Guanshi Liu if the previous owner of the house was an official before. As you guessed."
"So if I tell you that I already know the identity of the Gu keeper, and I want to explain it clearly to you, I can't get around my father's identity anyway." Si Wuxiu said, "And the origin of the Gu worm is also A clue that I could win the bet."
"That's why you confessed your identity to me." Tangning finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Then what clues did you get?"
"Don't worry, I'll tell you about this later." Si Wuxiu said with a gloomy gaze, "Look, I even told you such an important secret, at least compared to Murong Du, I treat Aning even more. Sincerely?"
Tangning looked at him speechlessly, halfway through the conversation, can't you not take your private goods with you? "We're so close, even if you don't explain it clearly, I know that you are more sincere to me than anyone else," Tangning said.
This wasn't nonsense, Tangning could feel it.
It was like Si Wuxiu was willing to tell Tangning something that his subordinates were unwilling to tell.
Si Wuxiu smiled with satisfaction, and continued: "I guess that demon corpse is the corpse of the Gu raiser. Didn't the common people spread the rumor that the former owner of the house was thrown into the lake by the younger generations after his death? Then The demon corpse is probably him. He was an official in the capital, and his martial arts cultivation is at least at the Dan level, so the Gu worms will choose to use his body as a nest to control him."
"Manipulation?" Tangning thought of something, "By the way, the book I read yesterday also said that Gu worms exist to manipulate others. I thought it was strange at the time that Gu worms would devour blood energy. People will die, how to manipulate it."
It turned out that it was not the living people who were manipulating, but the dead bodies.
"So the person who tore off the inner pages is the one who used Gu worms to control the demon corpse. He must still be in this mansion." Si Wuxiu finally concluded.
This inference was very exciting, and Tangning felt a sense of enlightenment. He patted Si Wuxiu hard, "I really have you, I want it all! No wonder you agreed to Miss Long's bet, you have a good chance of winning! "
Si Wuxiu lowered her head and smiled: "I can't compare to Aning, Aning is the real one, even if you take off your clothes, you can find the small attic that is hidden so deep."
Tangning: "..."
Stop talking about undressing!
"Stay with me tonight?" Si Wuxiu smiled.
"No, Manager Liu should have arranged for craftsmen to repair my door tonight," Tangning said with a blank expression.
"Oh, is that so?" Si Wuxiu's ending voice rose slightly.
Tangning immediately became vigilant.
"I asked Yuhe to tell Guanshi Liu that there is no need to rush to repair that door, we can just make do with one room." Si Wuxiu said to him, "So I guess the door is still broken when you go back now. of."
"It's so despicable!" Tangning said angrily.
"Isn't this just right, what if a cat enters your room again, at least I can protect you." Si Wuxiu said with a sincere tone.
Tangning sighed deeply, cats can be in any danger, the most dangerous person is clearly you.
This feeling of being arranged by someone...
After returning, Tangning was not surprised to find that the door of his room was still empty, so she could only carry his small bag and continue to squeeze into the same room with Si Wuxiu.
After washing up and going to bed, Tangning made a partition in the middle with a quilt: "You are not allowed to cross the boundary while sleeping!"
His expression was fierce.
Si Wuxiu was amused by him: "Okay."
Tangning looked at him suspiciously, why did she agree so quickly?
"I don't cross the line, but what if Aning crosses the line?" Si Wuxiu looked a little worried, "You were the one who came into my arms this morning."
"It was a misunderstanding in the morning. I hadn't woken up at the time, and I will never do it again tonight." Tangning slept against the wall, and he didn't believe that he could sleep on the other side this way.
Si Wuxiu held back a smile: "That's not necessarily the case."
Tangning glared at him. Unless you roll over to my side in the middle of the night, nothing will happen, okay? My brother's sleeping posture is still very honest.
However, before he could say anything, he saw Si Wuxiu's eyes were slightly cold, turned over and got off the bed, picked up the sword on the table and rushed out like a sharp arrow.
Tangning was stunned for a moment, thinking that classmate Si had also learned his habit of going out without saying anything, but he realized in an instant that something was wrong!
Tangning immediately followed Si Wuxiu out of bed. Just as she was about to step out of the room, she heard the clear sound of running water from the roof.
Sure enough, there is a situation!
The author has something to say: the second day
456: Well, let me say, you got into my arms yourself.
Tang: I dreamed about the monster octopus again yesterday, and I could be pulled out by its tentacles after hiding in the hole... Do you think I will believe you?
