Chapter 383 Good Medicine

Chu Liuzheng answered honestly, "I was bitten by a shadow-chasing bug."

"Shadow Chaser?" Xiao Jingfan frowned. "What is that?"

Chu Liuzheng explained while serving tea. Xiao Jingfan was curious and ordered Zhou Yuande to summon Feng Jing. He wanted to see the shadow-chasing bug.

Zhou Yuande took the order and did it.

But Feng Jing hadn't arrived yet. Tong Niang arrived first and brought a shadow-chasing bug with her, which was not the one Feng Jing caught.

Xiao Jingfan took the glass bottle and looked at it carefully.

The shadow-chasing bug lay motionless at the bottom of the bottle, and at first glance looked a bit like a fly.

He looked up at Tong Niang and asked, "Where did you catch it?"

"It's right outside the tent where the young lady is resting," Tong Niang said. "It's been flying around the tent. I went to check on the young lady and saw it. It must be here to look for her."

At this moment, Zhou Yuande came back with Feng Jing.

Feng Jingxian saluted Xiao Jingfan first, then stood up and saw the shadow-chasing insect in the glass bottle. He couldn't help but be surprised: "Where did it come from?"

Is today an auspicious day to pick up treasures?

Tongniang repeated what she had just said.

"It's okay to look for Ji An, but why look for Master Jiang?" Feng Jing took the glass bottle from Xiao Jingfan and looked at it carefully. He found that the shadow-chasing insect in the bottle was smaller than the one he caught.

He wondered, "Why isn't it moving?"

"Maybe he was scared by the cold green armor." Tong Niang glanced at the shadow-chasing bug and didn't take it seriously.

Feng Jing: “…”

Do you know that you can easily scare insects to death by doing this?

This insect is so difficult to raise, so please cherish it!

He took out the cage he had just made from the cloth bag at his waist, opened it, and poured the shadow-chasing insects inside into the glass bottle.

Sensing the presence of its own kind, the small shadow-chasing bug, which had been lying motionless, slowly crawled towards the big shadow-chasing bug, and then... started fighting.

The smaller one was almost beaten by the larger one.

Feng Jing was stunned and quickly separated the two shadow-chasing insects and put the bigger one back into the cage.

What happened to the promise that all the shadow-chasing bugs are a loving family?

Why are these two fighting?

[Tsk tsk, the master and master's bad relationship actually affects the insects.]

Chu Liuzheng quietly opened the system and scrolled down.

The first Shadow Chaser was Ping Xuan's, and the second was Zheng Qianqian's. The two brothers were at loggerheads, each wanting to kill the other. Even their own insects started fighting when they saw each other. It was truly awe-inspiring.

[Master Yin Lanci is truly bizarre. He actually made the original eldest disciple make room for the second disciple, and then favored the eldest disciple over the second disciple, making the second disciple extremely jealous. Every day, he thinks about how to kill the brother who stepped on his shoulders to get ahead.]

[With all these actions, I don't believe it wasn't intentional. Did Yin Lanci never intend for these two brothers to love each other from the beginning?]

Chu Liuzheng flipped through it slightly.

[Sure enough, I guessed it right.]

Yin Lanci Chunchun was just there to watch the show, toying with his two apprentices like a charm, teasing them when he was happy and teasing them when he was unhappy. This kind of bad taste is unparalleled.

She sorted out the news about Yin Lanci's apprentice and continued to look at the information related to the Shadow Chaser.

[Hmm... So Zheng Qianqian used the Shadow Chaser to find Jiang Yao because of Yin Lanci's order.]

[Strange, hasn't Yin Lanci always treated Jiang Yao, the junior sister who was chasing her, as if she were nothing? Why is she suddenly trying to arrest someone?]

With doubts, she searched the system.

[Hmm...here!]

Chu Liuzheng clicked it and read quickly.

As I looked, my eyes became brighter and brighter.

【Wow~ I found a huge melon! 】

Xiao Jingfan pricked up his ears quietly. What big news?

[No wonder they wanted to capture Jiang Yao. Apparently, they were planning to let the Netherworld Gu devour the Shadow Moon Gu to appease it.]

[Tyrant is quite lucky, he happened to catch the Netherworld Gu attacking its host.]

Chu Liuzheng pulled it down.

[Tsk tsk, Yin Lanci didn't inherit the Netherworld Gu through normal means to begin with. He also used it frequently in the early stages, causing it to become agitated every one or two months, accelerating its consumption of the host's heart meridians.]

[In order to save his life, Yin Lanci had to find other food for the Nether Gu, and even built a poison pool on the Thousand-foot Cliff.]

Xiao Jingfan immediately wrote down in the little notebook in his heart: There is a poisonous pool on the thousand-foot cliff.

Chu Liuzheng looked at it and shook his head secretly.

This is simply drinking poison to quench thirst.

If it continues to feed like this, the Nether Gu's appetite will only grow. Every time it stirs, the backlash against Yin Lanci will become more severe, and Yin Lanci will have to feed it again. This vicious cycle will continue. Sooner or later, Yin Lanci will kill himself and become its nourishment, just like countless of its predecessors.

[Actually, the best solution is for Yin Lanci to seclude herself for two or three years, completely controlling the Netherworld Gu before coming out. This way, the Netherworld Gu will behave much better, and she can live another seven or eight years.]

Xiao Jingfan's eyes turned cold when he heard this.

Yin Lanci is ambitious and can't wait to sit on the throne and rule the world. How could he be willing to stay in seclusion for two or three years?

Furthermore, the situation is ever-changing. It can change drastically in just one month. Who knows what the situation will be like in two or three years?

If he were Yin Lanci, he wouldn't wait either.

Chu Liuzheng was still sighing.

[The Shadow Moon Gu is now Yin Lanci's best medicine. Fortunately, Jiang Yao has already cultivated the Shadow Moon Gu. Otherwise, if they really met Yin Lanci on a narrow road, they would definitely be sacrificed.]

Yin Lanci probably didn't expect Jiang Yao's food reserves to be out of control. It was her beloved disciple Hongying who came to her aid. Longkou Town's plan was completely in vain.

She continued to search the system.

Since Zheng Qianqian's shadow-chasing bug is here, he should be nearby as he followed the shadow-chasing bug to catch Jiang Yao, right?

Where is it?

At the same time, Feng Jing also put forward the same idea.

He said to Xiao Jingfan, "Your Majesty, the owner of the shadow-chasing bug that Tong Niang caught should be nearby."

That means if you want to catch someone, you should do it now. If you delay for too long, the other party will realize something is wrong and run away.

Xiao Jingfan thought for a moment and felt that arresting Zheng Qianqian would bring more benefits than disadvantages, so he nodded and decided to arrest him!

With the shadow-chasing bug in hand, there is no need to worry about not being able to find Zheng Qianqian, but there is a problem.

The Shadow Chaser flies too fast at full speed and is easy to lose.

If he failed to catch the person and lost the insect, Dr. Feng would definitely sit on the ground and cry.

Tong Niang thought of a way and said, "I can let Han Qingjia follow it."

With Han Qingjia supervising on the side, the shadow-chasing insect didn't dare to fly too fast, which made it easier for everyone to follow it.

Xiao Jingfan thought it was feasible and asked Feng Jing to release the shadow-chasing bug to give it a try.

Feng Jing did as he was told.

The little shadow-chasing insect that was released from the glass bottle suddenly gained freedom, immediately spread its wings and flew up, and was then knocked onto the table by Han Qingjia who was also flying up.

Looking at the Shadow Chaser on the table who was frightened into autism again by Han Qingjia, everyone looked at Tongniang, wondering if she could make Han Qingjia a little gentler?

That must be possible.

So, under the rubbing of Han Qingjia, the little shadow-chasing insect was forced to become active, spread its wings and flew out of the tent to ask its owner for help.

Feng Jing and Tong Niang followed immediately, as well as Si Yue and Chen Xing who had just heard the news and rushed over, as well as Lu Fei who had nothing to do and was strolling around the military camp.

Chu Liuzheng also wanted to join in the fun, but before he could take a step, someone grabbed his arm.

She turned her head, her eyes slightly resentful.

[We've had our tea and snacks, what do you want to do now?]

Xiao Jingfan just wanted to see the wound on her neck. It looked very serious with such a large plaster.

But looking at Chu Liuzheng's expression, he hesitated for a moment, then decisively pulled him out: "Together."
