Gu Xingnuo breathed in the air filled with a burnt smell, sitting on the burned ground and thinking, when family annihilations occurred frequently and everyone in the government and the country was in danger, this group of criminals would let his brother kill crazily in front of everyone again. Young Master Gu shuddered, if this vicious plan succeeded, Gu Xinglang would surely fall into an irretrievable situation.
Yu Xiaoxiao pulled off a corner of her handkerchief, stuffed the copper bell into it, and hung it on the string of wind chimes. Knowing that this copper bell could make her Xiao Gu crazy, Yu Xiaoxiao didn't feel happy. Her Xiao Gu's problem was not the copper bell. Even if she destroyed all the copper bells in Mo Wen's hand, it couldn't solve the problem that her Xiao Gu was a medicine man. Getting the copper bell could cure the symptoms, but not the root cause.
After putting the copper bell away, Yu Xiaoxiao reached out and picked up the black porcelain bottle in the wooden box. She opened the tightly corked wooden stopper and found that the bottle was filled with blood. She then picked up another black porcelain bottle and opened it. It was still filled with blood.
Yu Xiaoxiao poured a drop of blood onto the back of her hand, but the blood did not look like fresh blood.
Gu Xingnuo asked: "Human blood?"
Yu Xiao: "I don't know if it's human blood, but these people put this blood in a wooden box. It seems that this blood is very important to them."
Gu Xingnuo said: "This bottle can't hold too much blood."
Yu Xiaoxiao shook the black porcelain bottle in her hand. The bottle was small and thin. She poured a drop of blood into it, and the blood in the bottle seemed to be reduced by one-fifth.
Gu Xingnuo held Gu Xinglang horizontally, stood up, and said to Yu Xiao: "There is still a survivor. Let's go back and interrogate him thoroughly. We can find out everything."
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at the black porcelain bottle and said, "No need to ask, this blood should belong to Xiao Gu."
"What?"
"Last night, that family of three scratched and clawed Xiao Gu, and Xiao Gu even lost half of his fingernail," Yu Xiaoxiao: "These people will not do useless work, they must have a purpose for doing this, big brother, look," Yu Xiaoxiao pointed to the upper left corner of the wooden box and asked Gu Xingnuo to look.
Gu Xingnuo looked down and found half a nail placed in the upper left corner of the wooden box.
Yu Xiaoxiao stood up holding the wooden box.
The boss saw the two of them standing up, and hurriedly brought the second in command over.
Looking at Gu Xinglang, whose eyes were tightly closed, the eldest boss said, "Princess, what happened to the Prince Consort?"
"He's tired," Yu Xiao said, "He's asleep now."
The first and second in command..., don't treat them as complete fools, right? Who in their right mind would believe such words?
Gu Xingnuo said at this time: "From today on, let Xinglang recuperate at home and don't go out casually."
Yu Xiao: "Brother, are you going to lock up Xiao Gu?"
Young Master Gu shook his head and whispered, "Now that we have captured this group of people, will Mo Wen not send anyone else?"
Yu Xiaoxiao was silent. Yes, if she didn’t kill that baldy, she wouldn’t be able to play in this world!
The second in command took Gu Xinglang from Gu Xingnuo's hands, carried him on his back, and said, "If you ask me, we should just charge up to the Eternal Life Temple, set it on fire, and burn Mo Wen to death."
The big boss said, "Shut up, do you think the Eternal Life Temple is a restaurant and we can go in whenever we want?"
Gu Xingnuo took the wooden box from Yu Xiaoxiao's hand. When he saw the mechanism inside the wooden box, Young Master Gu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
The boss also leaned over to take a look, and when he saw the densely packed needle grooves on the mechanism, his scalp tingled.
Yu Xiao: "Brother, what did you find wrong again?"
"Are there any hidden weapons in here?" Gu Xingnuo asked Yu Xiaoxiao.
Yu Xiaoxiao pointed to the ground and said, "Here."
The eldest boss asked, "Poison needle?"
Yu Xiao: "Xiongxiong, you are smart for once. How did you know it was a poison needle?"
The big boss curled his lips and said, "What good can Mo Wen's people do?"
Yu Xiao: "Yes, those who think that bald guy is kind are all idiots."
The eldest boss thought about it and sighed to Yu Xiaoxiao: "Princess, it's a good thing you opened the box. If it were someone else, they would definitely die."
Yu Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I exist."
The boss's mouth twitched. Will this man die if he is humble for once?
Yu Xiao: "Retreat, we'll talk about anything when we get home."
Gu Xingnuo closed the wooden box, gently placed it in Yu Xiaoxiao's hand, and said, "Princess, thank you."
Yu Xiaoxiao asked: "What good thing have I done again?"
Gu Xingnuo looked at Yu Xiaoxiao and smiled: "The princess has done a lot of good things, so I want to thank her."
Yu Xiaoxiao chuckled and said, "I thought I had hit the wrong person before, and was wondering how to pay for the medical expenses."
Mr. Gu...
The first and second in command...
"Let's go," Yu Xiaoxiao stepped forward.
The second in command asked the first in command quietly, "Or is the princess really the savior? Brother, tell me, why is the princess so lucky?"
The boss sighed to the second in command and said, "Luck? Even if this luck is given to you, can you catch the person?" Can an ordinary person deal with that skinless monster?
Gu Xingnuo sent Yu Xiaoxiao and her group out of the alley, and only returned to the courtyard after they disappeared.
"Young Master," two generals serving in the Military Department stood in front of Gu Xingnuo.
Gu Xingnuo reached out and touched the black courtyard wall, and said, "Catch all the neighbors of this house."
The two generals received the order, and one of them asked Gu Xingnuo, "Are there any suspicious people among these civilians?"
"There is a basement dug under the house, and there is also a tunnel leading to the outside of the city," Gu Xingnuo said, "I don't believe this gang of thugs can do this quietly. The neighbors must know something. Take them to the Dali Temple and have a thorough trial."
The two generals looked at each other. How long was the tunnel from where they were standing to outside the city?
"There are still many corpses in the basement," Gu Xingnuo said again, "They were all killed. Take your men down and bring the corpses up."
The two generals quickly responded with a yes.
"The skin of the corpse is gone," Gu Xingnuo told the two generals in advance, "You should tell the brothers who are going to move the corpse in advance not to scare them to death."
"The skin is gone?" another general asked in surprise.
"Yes," Gu Xingnuo said, "These criminals deserve to die. I have to go back to the palace to report to the emperor. I'll leave this place to you two. Search thoroughly and pack up anything you find, whether it's useful or not, for later inspection."
The two generals bowed and said, "I obey your command."
A general hesitated for a moment and said to Gu Xingnuo, "Master, the prisoner in this house has been taken away by Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"I will report this to His Majesty." Looking at the two generals, even though he was in a bad mood, Young Master Gu still smiled and said, "I'll trouble you two to take care of this."
