Rong Jialuo flicked his fingertips, and a flash of fire emitted, the white paper ignited, and in an instant, the insects on the silver needle were reduced to ashes.
"Is this... is this good?" Rong Jialuo couldn't help but ask.
"Okay. Your Highness, you can try your luck."
Rong Jialuo ignored the dust in the study room and sat on the floor and began to practice his kung fu. After drinking tea, he opened his eyes and jumped up, bowing deeply to Gu Xijiu: "Thank you Mr. Ren for your wonderful rejuvenation. I am healed!"
He is healed! He is finally healed! The stubborn illness that had plagued him for two years and made him almost despair was cured just like that!
Even though Rong Jialuo had always been calm, his chest was almost bursting with excitement at this moment.
"Young Master Ren has cured my stubborn illness, and I can give you another reward. You..." Rong Jialuo's eyes flashed in the direction where Gu Xijiu was standing just now, and he stopped mid-sentence.
Where is Gu Xijiu's whereabouts
"Mr. Ren? Mr. Ren?" Rong Jialuo searched around the place without giving up. He was the only one left in the dilapidated study.
The short young master appeared and disappeared as suddenly as he came. No one knew how he came or how he left...
Rong Jialuo clenched his fists and suddenly regretted that he didn't let anyone keep a close eye on that person just now...
In addition to wanting to express his gratitude to Gu Xijiu, he also wanted to ask for advice on many things, such as the origin of this Gu and her apprenticeship. He even wanted to take her under his banner at all costs. What a shame!
He had even made a draft in his mind on how to persuade her to join his camp.
As a result, before he had time to implement everything, the other party disappeared out of thin air!
Cured his hidden illness, took away the strange bracelet and the one million taels of silver notes, and settled things with him—
He doesn't even know the other person's name yet! I only knew that the other party’s surname was Ren from the kid at the auction house who gave him the paper crane...
…
The moon in the sky is as big as a disk, and there is not a single star in the vast night sky. Only the sky and the earth illuminated by the moon are silvery white.
It was late at night, and there was a curfew in the city. There were very few pedestrians on the streets, only patrolling soldiers passing by from time to time.
Gu Xijiu appeared at the entrance of a deep alley in the city.
Although she is quite proficient in using the teleportation technique now, she has very little internal energy and is not as skillful in using it as in her previous life. The distance of each teleportation is only two or three miles.
General Gu's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion are far apart, one is to the south of the city and the other is to the north, so Gu Xijiu cannot teleport directly from the Prince's Mansion back to her own nest. There is still a resting place in between.
Fortunately, Gu Xijiu was as meticulous as a hair. She had already memorized the general layout of the city and knew which places were more secretive and less crowded. This small alley was the place she chose to stay.
"I didn't expect you to recognize this kind of Gu! You must know that it was extremely rare in our time." The voice of the Sky Jade Bracelet came to Gu Xijiu's mind.
Gu Xijiu ignored it. After she steadied her steps, she took a breath, touched her chest with her hand, and frowned.
"You're injured!" Cangqiong Jade Bracelet sensitively sensed something was wrong with her: "Is it caused by the palm he slapped you when you were giving the acupuncture to the prince?"
"It's just a minor injury."
She still underestimated the prince's skill. Although she had prepared in advance and dodged in time, she was still swept away by the edge of his palm, and her chest was slightly blocked at the moment.
