The two witches looked at Yu Xiaoxiao together. They didn't need to say anything to her. Yu Xiaoxiao understood what they wanted to say. "The world is in chaos?" Yu Xiaoxiao said to the two witches, "What if Jing Mo is here just for tourism? What are you going to do? Can you stop fortune-telling from now on?"
How do you want the two great wizards to respond to such a conversation?
"What a mess," Yu Xiaoxiao muttered again, "You two great witches, you stay in your room every day to tell fortunes, why don't you do something practical?"
The Great Wizard Jinwu asked, "What's the truth?"
"I heard from Xiao Jiang that you raise Gu in your seedling fields," Yu Xiaoxiao said seriously, "Can I understand this medicine man as a kind of Gu?"
The two great witches looked at each other, and Great Witch Jinye said, "I don't know."
Yu Xiao: "Don't know?"
"We have never seen these living dead before," said the Great Wizard Jinwu.
Yu Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked again: "So what you mean is that my Xiao Gu actually died a long time ago, and now he is just a living dead?"
This time, the Great Wizard Jinwu said nothing.
After a long while, Great Wizard Jinye said, "I've said before that there is no cure for Gu Xinglang. Killing him is the best way."
"Okay," Yu Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "You guys talk first, I'll go see my brother."
Seeing Yu Xiaoxiao walk out of the house without even looking back, Great Wizard Jinwu said in disbelief: "She just left like that? What did she mean by that? Will she kill Gu Xinglang?"
The great wizard Jinye shook his head. He couldn't see through Yu Linglong.
Gu Xingnuo was lying on the bed unable to move, but this did not stop Young Master Gu from getting angry. "You came to Miaodi just because you heard what Gu Lin said?" Young Master Gu said to Gu Xinglang, "Nonsense!"
Gu Xinglang said: "I heard that you were in trouble, how could I not come? Brother, what happened to you? Weren't you fine yesterday?"
Gu Xingnuo..., his mind was confused yesterday and he couldn’t remember a lot of things. Can’t he just get angry today?
Seeing his eldest son getting angry, Gu Sen backed away little by little. Gu Lin, who reported the news, was his biological brother.
Gu Xinglang said: "Brother, how do you feel now?"
Gu Xingnuo said unhappily: "You can't die."
Gu Xinglang sighed and said, "Brother, the princess and I are fine, and Gu Lin and the other three are fine too. You should be happy. Why are you so angry?"
Gu Xingnuo felt depressed and uncomfortable. Looking at Gu Xinglang, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Gu Xinglang said, "Brother, let the princess take a look at you later. You broke five ribs this time. If you don't want to be disabled, you have to be obedient."
Gu Xingnuo sighed and said, "Be obedient? Are you talking to me?"
Gu Xinglang smiled and said, "Brother, are you still angry?"
His younger brother looked indifferent in front of others, but often acted childishly in front of him. Gu Xingnuo had always thought that this was good, as it showed that his younger brother was close to him. But now, looking at Gu Xinglang who seemed like he would never grow up in front of him, Gu Xingnuo felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. The pain made him even want to scream out loud.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Gu Xinglang asked.
Gu Xingnuo said: "Tell me, what happened to you in Chiyang City? You came to Miaodi, what will you do about the birthday banquet of the Suzaku King?"
Before Gu Xinglang could say anything, Yu Xiaoxiao pushed the door open and walked in, saying, "The King of Suzaku has been replaced. It doesn't matter whether Xiao Gu and I attend the birthday banquet or not. Big brother, how do you feel now?"
When Gu Xingnuo saw Gu Xinglang, his heart was broken, but when he saw Yu Xiaoxiao, he was speechless. Her Royal Highness the Princess saved their Gu family's lives, but now she has ended up like this. How should Young Master Gu face his younger brother's sister-in-law?
Seeing that Yu Xiaoxiao asked questions and his elder brother didn't say anything, Gu Xinglang raised his hand and patted Gu Xingnuo's hand, saying, "Brother?"
Gu Xingnuo then said: "Xinglang, I'm a little thirsty, go get me some water."
Gu Xinglang turned around and was about to call Gu Sen.
Gu Xingnuo said: "Let Gu Sen go and rest. He has been guarding me all night."
Gu Sen was standing by the door at this moment. Having followed Gu Xingnuo for so many years, little Sen had already mastered the skill of listening to people's voices. "Yes, young master, I'll take my leave," Gu Sen responded and ran out of the door.
Gu Xinglang didn't think much about his elder brother, so he stood up and said, "Then I'll get you some water."
Yu Xiaoxiao was still pointing at the table and said stupidly, "Isn't there water here?"
Gu Xinglang picked up the big teapot on the table and shook it. There was still a lot of water in it. He put the earthen bowl that was upside down on the table straight and was about to pour the water.
Gu Xingnuo said, "The water is not hot anymore. Xinglang, go get me some hot water."
Gu Xinglang had no choice but to go to the kitchen to get hot water for his elder brother.
Yu Xiaoxiao walked to the bedside and said, "Brother, I noticed that you became squeamish after you got hurt."
Yu Xiaoxiao's teasing did not cause any big reaction from Gu Xingnuo. Gu Dashao just looked at Yu Xiaoxiao and called softly, "Princess."
Yu Xiaoxiao sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Brother, how do you feel now?"
How could Gu Xingnuo care about his own health now? He asked Yu Xiaoxiao, "Did the Great Wizard Jinye tell you?"
Yu Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Yes, he said that my little Gu has been a medicine man since he was a child."
Gu Xingnuo opened his mouth but no words came out.
Yu Xiao: "Did that old man also force you to kill Xiao Gu?"
Gu Xingnuo nodded.
"Ignore him," Yu Xiao said, "How can we give up hope until the last moment?"
Gu Xingnuo said: "Princess, is there any way to save Xinglang?"
Yu Xiao: "I am studying medicine men now. If we want to save Xiao Gu, we must first understand what medicine men are."
Gu Xingnuo said: "Mo Wen knows."
"But Mo Wen won't tell us the truth, and he won't save Xiao Gu," Yu Xiao said, "Brother, don't tell me you still want to ask Mo Wen for help."
Gu Xingnuo was silent. He had thought about asking Mo Wen to see if his life could be exchanged for Gu Xinglang's.
"Brother," Yu Xiaoxiao leaned over to look at Gu Xingnuo's face and said, "Do you really want to go find Mo Wen?"
Gu Xingnuo smiled bitterly and said, "Even if I go to find him, he won't save Xinglang."
"The Great Wizard Jinye said that in the end, Mo Wen and Xiao Gu will have a mutual understanding, and Xiao Gu will completely obey his tribe. Xiao Gu will kill whoever he tells her to kill. By then, Xiao Gu will be Mo Wen's killing weapon." (Hey, did the Great Wizard really say this to you? ==)
Gu Xinglang's lips trembled, and he whispered to Yu Xiaoxiao, "Princess, what do you mean by that? Are you going to kill, kill Xinglang?"
Yu Xiaoxiao..., when did she ever say that she wanted to kill her Xiao Gu?
