"There are such magical poisonous insects in the world! The world is so big that there are all kinds of wonders!" Zhou Ran exclaimed.
His eyes involuntarily glanced at Yu Cuiwei, and then he secretly glanced at Guan Yu; he thought to himself, if he let his own master and this female killer plant the poisonous insect together, he wondered what would happen
It must be very interesting. When he thought of his pride, a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was very wanton.
Just as he was lost in thought and had not yet come to his senses, he suddenly heard Guan Yu shout, "Zhou Ran?"
"Uh, um, Master, Master, you called me?" Zhou Ran immediately turned his head and looked at Guan Yu.
Guan Yu narrowed his eyes, stared at him, and said solemnly: "I noticed that you glanced at me secretly, and then showed a wanton smile. What are you thinking about?"
"You don't want me and that young lady to be infected with this poisonous insect, do you?"
"Uh, no, absolutely not, Master, you are wronging me. Even if you give me the courage, I would not dare to think like that." Zhou Ran looked at Guan Yu sincerely, with a look of great aggrievedness.
"Oh, then what did you mean by glancing at me just now?" Guan Yu was relentless.
Damn, Zhou Ran felt secretly bitter when he heard this, this guy's eyesight is too sharp; I clearly just took a sneak peek, but he still found out, it's really weird.
He complained in his heart, but he was not slow to speak, and quickly explained: "Master, here we are the only master and disciple, and we are the men; I heard that this Lingxi Gu can only be planted in pairs, and must be planted on a man and a woman, in order to be effective."
"My disciple looked at Master, which was a subconscious action. Please don't blame me, Master. Yes, it was a subconscious action."
Upon hearing this, Guan Yu glared at him fiercely, then turned to Li Wenyi and said solemnly: "Wenyi is right. After all, the old thief has a history of harming the people. The sooner we get accurate information, the sooner we can prepare for it and be on the safe side."
"From my perspective, the captured young lady, Yu Cuiwei, must be a ruthless person. If she is interrogated normally, she will not confess easily. In this case, she will need this Lingxi Gu sooner or later, so it is better to use it sooner rather than later."
"That's right, that's right. Master is really wise. The earlier he uses it, the earlier we can respond." Zhou Ran nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice, and echoed him repeatedly.
It's just that his expression had a hint of flattery no matter how you looked at it, which made Cha Shuchen and Li Wenyi look at him with contempt. They turned their heads away and stopped looking at him.
Guan Yu got Zhou Ran's approval, and his expression immediately became solemn. He said in a serious tone: "As you just said, there are only two men here, and we are a master-disciple relationship. As the saying goes, 'Master has things to do, and disciples do the hard work'. No matter who you choose, Zhou Ran, you are the best person to plant the Lingxi Gu and find out what I am thinking. Just get ready."
Guan Yunchang just greeted Zhou Ran, and without caring about Zhou Ran's reaction, he immediately turned to Long Jiaer and said straightforwardly: "Madam Jiaer, I will hand over my apprentice to you. Don't be polite, just plant it as you like."
"Okay." Since Guan Yu had agreed, Long Jia would not be polite; and Cha Shuchen and Li Wenyi turned a deaf ear to him. They didn't even turn their heads, let alone come forward to stop him.
Seeing that the matter was settled, Zhou Ran was stunned and hurriedly asked: "Master, weren't you going to take Yu Cuiwei back first, find a man, and then plant the Gu? Why are you starting now?"
"Just pick someone?" Guan Yu glanced at him unhappily, and then said seriously, "Just pick someone. Can you believe what he says?"
"Why are you afraid? It won't hurt you. Besides, you are my disciple. I feel more at ease if you do the investigation, right?"
"Well, but..."
"General Zhou, don't worry. Once the male and female poisons are used, their survival period is only about a month at most. After this time, the poisonous worms will naturally disappear and will not be able to cause any harm to you at all." Long Jia interrupted Zhou Ran and explained seriously before he finished speaking.
Zhou Ran wailed inwardly when he heard this. You know, although the Lingxi Gu can be used to sense the other party's secrets, the other party can also sense your thoughts. What if a young lady knows your thoughts, how can you survive in the future
The master wouldn't be afraid that his little thoughts would be known by others, so he is making excuses.
When he thought of this, Zhou Ran panicked. Since asking his master for help was useless, he had to ask his master's wife and his wife for help, hoping that they could say a few words to Guan Yu, at least to make him give up this idea temporarily.
However, when he looked at Cha Shuchen and Li Wenyi, they were still looking at Yu Cuiwei and had no intention of even looking at him.
This cruel scene made Zhou Ran despair instantly. Oh my God, why didn't anyone stand up and say a fair word for me, Xiao Zhou, at the critical moment? What would happen if my little thoughts were known to others
Others will certainly not pay attention to Zhou Ran's self-pity; but as the other target of the poison, Yu Cuiwei, does she have any choice
Being at the mercy of others, she wisely kept her mouth shut and said nothing.
However, when the Lingxi Gu was implanted into her body, a series of lustful, unbearable, and even dirty thoughts came to her mind, and this ruthless female killer finally panicked.
"Shameless, ah, obscene, lecher, ah, bastard, what are you thinking about?" Yu Cuiwei was furious and immediately glared at Zhou Ran fiercely, shouting wildly.
"Asshole, how dare you, ah..., just pray that you don't fall into my hands, otherwise, I will definitely peel off your skin."
... ...
People like them who have been wandering around in the world and have great reputations have long been indifferent to life and death; but as an unmarried young lady, how could Yu Cuiwei endure being constantly fantasized about and insulted by others
Facing Yu Cuiwei, this pretty lady as gentle as water, Zhou Ran had already chanted "Amitabha" in his heart, but he still thought about what he should have thought about and did not miss a single hope.
As for Yu Cuiwei, she knew that there were many people coveting her beauty, but she didn't know what they were thinking, and she seemed to be unaware of it. But now, Zhou Ran's thoughts...
She could sense clearly who was coveting her, even the other party's postures and special skills, and she could imagine them vividly. How could she not feel ashamed and angry
Yu Cuiwei sensed what Zhou Ran was thinking, and Zhou Ran also sensed what the other party was thinking. Zhou Ran turned a deaf ear to Yu Cuiwei's cursing and refused to admit it.
He continued to speak: "Oh, that old thief, isn't he the old guy who appeared in the battle of the Imperial City?"
"This bastard actually has an affair with the Secretary General of the Tang Court."
... ...
On one side, people were cursing wildly, while on the other side, people were reporting useful news without blushing or beating their hearts.
Who should I trust
Is there any need to ask? Everyone naturally chose to believe Zhou Ran. Of course, although Li Wenyi believed in her husband, her expression became increasingly cold as Yu Cuiwei scolded her.
If there was no one here, I believe Zhou Ran would become Madam Wen Yi's target, and being beaten with a purple brow would be considered the least of his punishment.
Yu Cuiwei was in a panic, and her inner secrets could no longer be hidden. Zhou Ran sensed them clearly. He even carefully recorded when she wet the bed as a child.
When Guan Yu and Cha Shuchen learned that the old villain mentioned by Li Wenyi intended to surround and kill Zhu Li in the northern border, everyone's expression changed drastically. Even Zhou Ran gave up on continuing to sense it.
Upon hearing the news, Guan Yu immediately wanted to turn back to the city. He wanted to rush to the Northern Frontier to support Zhu Li. His actions made Cha Shuchen instantly understand his intentions, and he immediately asked, "You want to go to the Northern Frontier?"
"Is that a question?" Guan Yu responded unhappily as he strode out of the forest.
"But do you think it's still in time?"
Cha Shuchen's question made Guan Yu stop in his tracks. He turned around with a serious expression and looked at Cha Shuchen, anxiously asking, "So what do you think we should do?"
"The old villain wants to gather the masters of the Mountain and Sea Alliance in Khitan to surround and kill the general. As a subject, how can I ignore it?" Guan Yu said in a sonorous voice, but he was very anxious.
Looking at Guan Yu, who looked anxious and worried, Cha Shuchen frowned slightly and said solemnly, "Even if my husband has a fast horse, even if he rides non-stop all the way north, it will take at least ten days to reach Shangjing."
"It's been nearly half a month. If something is bound to happen, my husband will be powerless to stop it."
"What's more, the general has entrusted the land of Yaozhou to my husband. If my husband goes north, what will happen to Yaozhou? This is a state of common people. If anything goes wrong, my husband will be the sinner of the entire Yaozhou. Not only will I fail the general, but I will also let down the people of Yaozhou."
Cha Shuchen spoke earnestly, and every word came from his heart. Li Wenyi, who saw this, said quickly, "Master, Master's Wife, since the old thief sent Wang Zhixing and Yu Cuiwei to fetch the Konoha Order, he would not have taken action in advance if he could not get the Konoha Order. Even if he took the initiative, without the help of the Shaman masters, their threat to the general would have been greatly reduced."
"What's more, Master, Master's Wife, have you forgotten about the Ghost Guard?"
"The speed at which the ghost guards transmit messages is the fastest. Now, we can use the ghost guards to pass the message to Shuozhou first. I believe Shuozhou will definitely respond."
"That's right." Zhou Ran quickly agreed, "Master, Master's Wife, there are two Mr. Guo in Shuozhou. Both of them are pillars of the country who can plan and win battles thousands of miles away."
"If we pass the message over, they can help the general out, which should be much better than us rushing over in a hurry."
Everyone's words were from the bottom of their hearts, so Guan Yu had no choice but to be cautious. After thinking for a while, he immediately said, "Okay, we will go back immediately."
"Zhou Ran, go and notify the Ghost Guards immediately and ask them to deliver the message to Shuozhou first."
"Shuchen, if that old villain is Lord Li who invited me to Nanzhao, I think it shouldn't be any danger for the three of us in Li Tianfu to go to Longhu Mountain and accept Longhu's gift."
"Send someone to inform Taoist Zhu Qia immediately and have him rush to the northern border. With his magical powers, he should be able to reach Shangjing within a few days."
