Concubine Li slowly turned her head and her face turned pale when she looked at the Queen.
Jun Baozhu's childish voice was also filled with anger.
[How dare they! Feed food with insect eggs in it to my mother and the queen mother! ]
【What do they want to do? ! 】
[Poisoned my mother and the queen mother? ]
After Huo Feng's analysis, he gave a reasonable guess:
[If you want to take life, you don't have to use insect eggs...]
[There are many places where the contact maids can poison people in the palace. Also, everyone has seen the skills of Aunt Gui...]
[Instead of poisoning him, they waited for the guards of Kunning Palace to deliver him. Assassination is not impossible...]
[But the method they chose at the beginning was insect eggs...]
[It’s so troublesome. It didn’t work the first time. I’ll add it again when I bring the queen to have supper...]
[It can be seen that this method must have its own advantages. ]
[The last palace maid was found to have a Gu worm after her death. This palace maid is very suspicious. It is reasonable to suspect that she also has a Gu worm in her body, which is why she was manipulated by Gui Ma...]
[After careful analysis and judgment, the system inferred that the Gu worms broke through the eggs and entered the human body, thus being controlled by the Gu worms.]
[As the eggs grow into adults, they parasitize the human body and constantly gnaw at the human internal organs. When the nutrients are exhausted, only a shell remains.]
[Perhaps, before that, the child Gu had already, under the influence of the mother Gu, completed self-destruction, and the recipient died...]
Jun Baozhu asked doubtfully:
[Where the eggs enter the human body and become parasitic worms? ]
[If the five internal organs of the human body are eaten cleanly, and the child Gu is not yet there, it will be affected by the mother Gu...]
What will happen to people?
[The human body explodes, and the poison flies out, looking for the next receptor? Or does the poison die together with the human body? ]
Fire Phoenix answered after searching:
[The sample is limited. Currently, there has been no confirmed case of a human body being sucked clean by a poisonous insect in the five countries.]
[However, according to the conversation with the witch doctor of Nanchi Country, more than ten years ago, when the chief witch assisted in unifying the various tribes, strange things happened on the mountain...]
Jun Baozhu tilted her head:
【Strange news?】
After Huo Feng explained, Jun Baozhu looked shocked.
[On the Nanchiguo Mountain, a dozen years ago,...]
[A monster with lifeless eyes, like a walking corpse? ]
[Extremely strong, invulnerable to swords and spears? Only fire can burn it all? ]
[However, when they are burned, they will fight back hard, but it is actually difficult? ]
[Those monsters scared many children and seriously injured many adult men. They were then chained by tribal warriors and burned with flames before they finally fell? ]
[Anything else? Any more records or information?]
[What? Did anyone see that the monsters fell down and a group of "moths" flew out of the flames, but they did not escape the disaster and soon turned into ashes? ]
[At that time, a witch doctor suspected that the "moths" of firepower were poisonous insects, and the lifeless walking corpses were human bodies that were controlled and hollowed out by the poisonous insects? ]
Jun Baozhu took a deep breath, obviously frightened.
Concubine Li hugged her daughter tightly and felt her scalp tingling.
The Queen's expression was unprecedentedly solemn.
After Jun Baozhu calmed down, Huo Feng continued to speculate:
【So, the way the Gu worm spreads is by entering the human body through the mouth. 】
[The eggs parasitize the human body, feed on the human internal organs, and gradually grow into poisonous insects. ]
[The child Gu is summoned by the mother Gu. If it dies, the person it parasitizes will die immediately. 】
[If not, the sub-gu will consume all nutrients in the human body, and the person will gradually lose consciousness, leaving only a shell, becoming a walking corpse, driven by the gu worm in the body. ]
[Both poisonous insects and hollowed-out skin bags are afraid of fire.]
[The walking corpses were burned, the poisonous insects flew out, but they couldn't escape...]
[Note: The Gu worm cannot be separated from the human body or other receptors.]
[The eggs can be added through food or other methods...]
【This shows that insect eggs can survive independently. 】
[Perhaps this is why they resorted to using insect eggs instead of poisonous insects to try to control the Queen and Concubine Li.]
Jun Baozhu hummed in her heart, then thought of another point and her face turned even paler.
[Since insect eggs cannot be detected through poison testing, apart from these two palace maids, will Aunt Gui...?]
[You also laid eggs for others? For example...]
[Father? Prince brother?]
The queen's face suddenly turned as pale as a piece of paper.
