Lian Youyou raised her hand and patted Fu Mingrui's shoulder gently: "Do your job well, otherwise, I will make your father lose his official position, and your whole family will have no place to stand in the capital! If you can get to the bottom of this case, it will be good for you, for me, for your whole family, and for us in the Nine Gates. But if you can't figure it out, then, hehe, only you will be in trouble. We in the Nine Gates will still be here!" Lian Youyou's seemingly gentle voice, which was neither light nor heavy, made everyone in the hall look frightened.
Lord Yao Guang's fat face was tense and he swallowed his saliva. Boss Lian is really not someone you can mess with!
Yunxi, Fat Buddha, Yunyao and Sanniang were really glad that they hadn't provoked Lian Youyou before. She seemed unreliable, but when she used her tricks, she was definitely tougher and more vicious than their masters! Her aura made people dare not resist, and they dared not say a word in front of her!
They all couldn't help but feel more disgusted when they saw their parents looking at Lian Youyou with admiration.
Lin Tingjun calmly sipped his tea, took a long breath, and showed a hint of comfort. However, when he saw Lian Youyou approaching Fu Mingrui, his eyes turned cold again.
Fu Mingrui deeply felt the sinister aura of Lian Youyou, and then thought about the weirdness of the Nine Gates. He had been investigating cases for many years, and what kind of horrible corpses had he not seen? No matter how bloody the corpse was, he had no fear.
But today, the sight of all the living people in the Nine Gates made him feel cold all over. He couldn't help but feel nervous and frowned slightly: "But it will take some time for me to investigate the case from ten years ago. It will take time to go to Lijia Village to investigate."
Lian Youyou nodded and stood up: "Okay, how many days do you want?" Lian Youyou's tone was like the queen's arrival, and nothing mattered.
Fu Mingrui thought seriously for a moment: "Seven days."
"Okay." Lian Youyou turned around and looked at Yao Guang, "Xiao Guang, go and take care of this."
Lord Yao Guang nodded immediately and did not dare to bargain: "Okay, okay, I'll do it when I see the emperor tomorrow." Yao Guang's tone made it sound as if the emperor was just an errand boy for their Nine Gates.
"Ten years ago..." Fu Mingrui pondered carefully, as if he noticed something strange, and looked at Wanqing in surprise, "Ten years ago you were only six years old?!"
Wanqing lowered her head and said nothing.
Lian Youyou curled her lips and smiled lightly: "Wanqing, tell Lord Fu about your later events, so that he can open his eyes, but don't scare him too much."
"Yes..." Wanqing sighed softly, her expression calming down a little, "I was sixteen when I fell into the water."
Immediately, Fu Mingrui sat on the bench in a daze! She was sixteen that year, and ten years later... wouldn't that be twenty-six? Why did Wanqing still look only sixteen? !
"I managed to survive. Our Lijia Village is not far from Southern Xinjiang, so I know some legends about Southern Xinjiang..." Wanqing spoke again in the stunned eyes of Fu Mingrui, "I heard that the Gu King lives in Southern Xinjiang, and the Gu King can control thousands of Gu insects. So, I went to Southern Xinjiang and found the Gu King's temple. In the temple, I knelt and begged for five years. The Gu King was finally moved and met me. He was willing to help me take revenge. I sacrificed myself to the Gu King's Gu, learned the art of controlling Gu, and killed Ma Yun with thousands of insects. Ten days later... I will actually turn into a moth man and follow the Gu King back to Southern Xinjiang, so I only have these few days to take revenge..."
"The art of controlling Gu?" Although Fu Mingrui was in the capital, the Gu art of Southern Xinjiang was so mysterious that it was widely circulated in novels on the streets. But in reality, no one had ever seen it.
"What's this about sacrificing oneself to a Gu?" Yun Xi couldn't help but become curious. They knew about the Gu-controlling technique, but after hearing what Wan Qing said, it was clear that they only knew the basics.
"And what is Mothman?" Yun Yao couldn't help but be curious.
"Sacrifice myself to the Gu, listen carefully." Lian Youyou helped Wanqing up and asked her to sit aside. She stood in front of everyone and began to fool the small class again, "On the contrary, the Gu King likes to make a human Gu. What is a human Gu? It is to plant the Gu worm he has cultivated for a hundred years into the human body..."
Everyone opened their eyes wide, Yun Yao's eyes were already showing disgust. Especially Fu Mingrui, he stared at it intently.
"The Gu worm will slowly devour the human body, just like a silkworm making a cocoon, and the cocoon of this human Gu is the human. Eventually, the human Gu will break out of the cocoon and become Mothman." Lian Youyou finished explaining and looked at everyone, "Does anyone want to take a look? Learn more?"
No one wants to watch it, because they have a vague feeling that it will be disgusting.
Suddenly, only Fu Mingrui raised his hand, his expression firm: "I want to see, otherwise I will never understand how to control the Gu, how to kill Ma Yun, how Miss Wanqing..." He secretly took a look at Wanqing's appearance, "Keep your appearance."
Everyone showed admiration and gave Fu Mingrui a thumbs up for his courage.
Lian Youyou blinked and confirmed with Fu Mingrui again: "Are you sure?"
"Sure!" Fu Mingrui nodded seriously again.
Lian Youyou pursed her lips and looked at Wanqing: "Let him see, he will soon be your benefactor. The benefactor's requirements must be met, otherwise he may not believe what you say today."
Wanqing frowned slightly, and slowly stood up in front of Fu Mingrui, holding the corner of her clothes nervously with both hands, and an embarrassed look on her face: "Master Fu, please don't be afraid."
Fu Mingrui looked at the sixteen-year-old girl who was a pretty guest in front of him. Why was he afraid? Of course, he also made some psychological preparations, such as he thought that there might be many insects crawling out from around the house. Involuntarily, his eyes began to sweep down to the ground.
When the people from the Nine Gates saw him looking at the ground, they knew that Fu Mingrui knew nothing about the art of controlling poisonous insects!
Wanqing gently took a breath, exhaled slowly, and called out softly: "Please come to the Holy Gu."
Fu Mingrui subconsciously looked at her while she was talking, but he was stunned when he saw her! The skin on Wanqing's face was rising and falling as if there were countless worms crawling underneath, which was creepy!
Her face began to slowly crack in the middle, and a green, fat worm as big as a human head poked out from her cracked skin, immediately scaring everyone so much that they jumped out of their seats!
It was instinctive, a feeling of disgust and fear towards insects.
"Ah!" Yun Yao screamed and covered her face, not daring to look at Wanqing's horrible appearance again.
No one would have thought that such a beautiful woman was only beautiful in appearance. Under the appearance, she was already like the most evil poisonous insect in the world.
Fu Mingrui sat on the bench in a daze, the wriggling green worm reflected in his dark eyes. His mouth was slightly open, his expression was frozen.
Wanqing slowly took back the holy Gu and regained her beauty. She bowed to Mingrui indifferently and said, "I'm sorry to have startled you, sir."
Everyone looked at Fu Mingrui immediately and found that he was still the same.
Lian Youyou raised her eyebrows, stretched out her finger, and poked Fu Mingrui. Immediately, Fu Mingrui fell straight down and landed on the ground with his eyes closed. (To be continued)
