"How's it going?" Feng asked when he saw Mo coming back.
At this moment, Mo Xiangfeng nodded, and then said to Shuo Ling, "Master Hou, that Zhan You has been entangled by the Gu King, let's go quickly."
Several people quietly entered the secret room.
Strangely enough, there was no guard handle on the secret room door. It was probably because Emperor Xiling was afraid that the ministers in the court would find out that they were conducting experiments on human bodies and would stand up to refute it.
That's why Zhan You was asked to come in the dead of night.
Shuoling and the others pushed open the door of the secret room. Through the moonlight, they saw that the room was empty except for a few paintings hanging on the wall.
At this time, I walked to a painting, opened the painting, and saw a hidden grid.
At this time, Feng pressed lightly and saw a gap in a wall.
Of course, the reason why Feng knew where the agency was was because they had observed it these days.
At this time, Li Li lit the fire seal placed at the door, and several people walked in.
The hole was very deep, and Shuoling and the others walked for a while before they reached it.
At this time, he saw the same cells he had seen in Temple Village inside. Each one held a person, and they were all chained.
It seemed that these people had all been poisoned by the Nightmare Gu. Shuo Ling took a quick look and saw that there were thirty or forty people.
Seeing this, Shuo Ling couldn't help but frown. Last time, just that one person made him use 80% of his power. If these dozens of people were used on the battlefield, once a war started, there would be countless casualties!
So Shuo Ling said to Feng on the side, "Go find the keys to these cells, and remember to aim your sword at these people's hearts and pierce them."
Then he said to Mo on the side, "Mo, the two of us are looking for that Gu worm."
"Yes, Lord Marquis." The two responded and started to take action.
Shuo Ling also started looking for it at this time.
Inside the cell, there are two rooms. One room is filled with all kinds of Gu insects, and the other room is filled with books and a couch, which should be where Zhan You rests.
It didn't take long for Feng to find the key to the cell door under the couch, but he couldn't help but frown slightly after looking at it. There was no mark on the key, so he could only try it one by one in front of the cell door.
Shuo Ling and Mo were currently searching for the nightmare Gu insect.
…
"Junior brother, please wake up. Look at how you look now. If you continue like this, you..." At this time, Hou Shi saw that his lips were slightly white. He knew that the appetite of the Nightmare Gu King was becoming more and more. The bigger it is, he said to it.
Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhan You, "I am not your junior brother, and I don't need your concern. I thought that when the old man gave you the position of Gu King, I would have nothing to do with you. You said I'm not as good as you at all. That old man would look down on me so much that he would rather pass on the position of Gu King to an outsider than his own son."
"Junior brother, you can't talk about Master like that. He is your father, and the decisions he makes naturally have his own thoughts." After hearing what Zhan You said, Hou Shi stepped forward and put his hand on Zhan You's shoulder.
Unexpectedly, he was pushed down by Zhan You, and then sneered, "His idea? His idea is to make me unable to hold my head up in Wugu City."
"Junior brother, you are overthinking it." Seeing this, Hou Shi knew that Zhan You was very resentful, so he said again at this time.
Zhan You turned his head to the side at this time and no longer looked at Hou Shi, "I thought too much, haha, where did I think too much?"
"At that time, Master knew that you had a strong love for victory, which was not good for our sect. Master knew that he did not have much time left, so he passed on the position of Gu King to me first. When you are no longer frivolous, he will tell the world that you will become King of Gu." At this time, Hou Shi told Zhan You what his master said before his death.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Zhan You laughed up to the sky several times, and then shouted to Hou Shi loudly, "King of Gu? Am I frivolous? Shut up, what will that damn old man do to me if he does this?"
"Zhan You." At this time, Hou Shi on the side shouted when he saw Zhan You like this.
After Zhan You's anger calmed down a little, he stared at Hou Shi with an evil smile on his lips, "The position of Gu King is worthless to me now. As long as I help King Xiling get Dongling this time, From then on, I became very successful, one person was inferior to ten thousand people, so who cares about the position of Gu King?"
"Zhan You, have you ever thought about it? Now that the Nightmare Gu King is eating more and more, your body will become weaker and weaker." At this time, Hou Shi said to him again.
After hearing this, Zhan You looked at Hou Shi and sneered, "This is my own business, you don't have to worry about it!"
Then he said, "Go away. I won't give you the banned book. Don't come to me again in the future."
With that said, Zhan You left and walked towards the secret room.
At this time, Shuo Ling and Mo had already rummaged through all the boxes containing Gu worms, but still could not find the one the Gu King was talking about.
Shuo Ling couldn't help frowning at the side. At this moment, he suddenly thought that the Gu King said that this nightmare Gu feeds on Zhan You's blood every day.
Could it be that it was not placed here at all, but placed in his residence!
Thinking of this, Shuo Ling quickly said to Mo, "Where is Zhan You's residence? Go there."
"Yes, Lord Marquis." Mo responded and walked out with Shuo Ling.
Feng, who was responsible for killing the people in these cells, had only killed five at this time, and he had to try the keys of each cell one by one.
Seeing Shuo Ling and Mo come out, Feng said at this time, "Master Hou, only five of them have been eliminated."
"Go out first. We've been delayed for a long time. I guess Zhan You will be back soon." Shuo Ling looked at the people who were assassinated and saw that they were all reduced to a pile, and then said to Feng.
Several people quickened their pace and walked outside.
as expected!
As soon as the three people came out of the secret room, they saw Zhan You walking over.
After Zhan You walked into the secret room, Mo Li asked the two of them, "Where is Zhan You's residence? When he enters the secret room, he will realize that there is not much time left, so he has to hurry up."
"Master Marquis, come with us." Ye and Mo said as they led the way.
As we were about to reach Zhan You's residence, a group of patrolling teams came over.
Several people quickly hid.
After the patrolling guard left, a few people came out.
At this time, Feng said to Shuoling, "Master Hou, this is where Zhan You lives."
Shuo Ling nodded, and then asked Mo to look out at the door.
If the King of Xiling is alerted by then, it will be difficult for him to use this as an excuse to send troops in advance.
Mo nodded at this time, and then Shuo Ling and Feng walked to the house where Zhan You lived.
Zhan You, who entered the secret room at this time, saw several cell doors open. He was shocked and ran over to check. He saw that the people who had been poisoned by the nightmare Gu were now turned into bloody corpses.
Seeing this, Zhan You hurriedly ran into the inner room, only to see signs that the place where he placed the Gu insects had been disturbed.
At this time, Zhan You yelled something bad in his heart, his nightmare Gu, and hurriedly ran out.
Shuo Ling and Feng searched almost all the places in Zhan You's house, but still found nothing.
At this moment, Mo Li frowned, wondering where Zhan You would be hiding. It was said that it was not in the secret room, so it must be placed where he usually lives, so that he can easily raise this nightmare Gu.
Where will it be placed
At this time, Feng on the side asked, "Master Hou, what should I do?"
Shuo Ling was seen looking around the room. At this time, he stopped his eyes on a square tile on the ground in front of the bed, and saw some small scratches on the corners of the tile.
So he walked to the floor tile, squatted down, and then knocked it with his hand. Sure enough, it was hollow.
Seeing this, Feng on the side brought the dagger he carried to Shuo Ling, "Master Hou, here it is."
Shuo Ling took it at this time, put the dagger into the gap, tilted it slightly, and the square brick was easily picked up.
I saw a jar inside.
Shuo Ling was about to open it when Mo, who was standing outside the door to let the air flow, walked in, "Master Hou, Zhan You should have noticed it and is running towards this way."
"Got it." Shuo Ling responded and quickly opened the jar.
Sure enough, it was the Nightmare Gu King. His whole body was dark purple and his head was blood red. It was seen that the Nightmare Gu King was still eating the wet blood at this time. It must have been fed by Zhan You before going to the secret room.
At this time, Shuo Ling quickly covered the jar, winked at Mo and Ye, and the three of them jumped out of the window.
At this time, Zhan You happened to open the door and saw a figure jumping out of the window. Zhan You yelled, so he hurried to the bed to check. He only saw that the square brick had been moved and the jar containing the Nightmare Gu King was missing. .
Zhan You didn't have time to think too much at this time, so he ran to the window and jumped out, chasing Shuo Ling and the others in the direction they were running.
After chasing him all the way outside the palace, Zhan You, who was already thin, had almost exhausted his physical strength.
He stopped to take a breath and was about to catch up again.
At this time Hou Shi came out from the side and blocked Zhan You's way, "Zhan You, stop being so stubborn."
"It's you, what a plan, let them return the things to me quickly." When Zhan You saw Hou Shi, he couldn't help but feel angry, and said with the muscles on his face pulsing.
Hou Shi said to him again, "Zhan You, if these people are used on the battlefield, do you know the consequences?"
"The consequences have nothing to do with me. Let them give me the things." Zhan You then yelled at Hou Shi.
At this time, Hou Shi then advised, "Even if you don't think about Master, you should think about yourself and see what you have become now."
"Whatever I become, it's all because of you who forced me." Zhan You couldn't listen to anything at this time and said with a sneer.
Seeing that Zhan You was still like this, Hou Shi sighed and said, "If this is the case, then you can take care of yourself!"
Hou Shi said and left.
"Stop and give me the thing!" Zhan You saw this and shouted loudly from behind.
Hou Shi seemed not to hear and continued walking.
Seeing that Hou Shi ignored him, Zhan You shouted frantically, "Stop, ah... ah...".
"Hushi, you and I are at odds with each other!"
At this time, the face looking at Zhan You was extremely ferocious.
