Chapter 436 Heart-Eating Gu
"Nothing. This is the process that every young leader of the Red Devils will go through in the future. It is to prevent someone from being disobedient."
After Su Ying finished speaking, she snapped her fingers lightly.
Those people were shocked, and a pain quickly spread from their necks to their limbs, causing them to tremble with pain and look hideous.
Mo Tu's face changed slightly, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Su Ying changed. He didn't understand her even better than he thought.
Su Ying walked to Motu and asked, "Do you want it?"
Motu looked at those people whose mouths and noses were crooked due to pain and shook his head. He didn’t want it!
Su Ying smiled and put the things away, "Motu, I hope you won't let me down."
Motu nodded, "Are they poisoned?"
"That's much more serious than poisoning." Su Ying snapped her fingers again, and the pain of those people gradually faded away.
After being tortured, the way these people looked at Su Ying changed.
"We are all new partners. I believe that you don't trust me as the leader. I don't trust you either. That's why I'm marking you with my mark. Don't worry, as long as you obey my orders, you won't feel this pain again. But if anyone doesn't know how to live or die, don't blame me for being rude."
This kind of pain is definitely more terrible than any kind of torture. Those people knelt on the ground one after another to express their loyalty, "Master, rest assured, we will work hard for you and will never dare to betray you."
Su Ying made a brief explanation and let those people leave. Only Su Ying and Mo Tu were left in the huge cave. "I will leave Duocheng tomorrow. The affairs here will be handed over to you."
"The leader trusts me."
Su Ying tilted her head slightly to look at him and said, "Of course, after all, you have the Heart-Eating Gu. If you don't take my medicine, you won't live for more than a year."
Motu's eyes changed a lot, and his fists in his sleeves were clenched tightly. "I really can't believe that the mother of a country can be so capable. How did you know these things?"
Su Ying reached out and turned his hand over, opened his fist to reveal his palm. On the slightly red palm, there was a red line from the thumb to the ankle, extending all the way towards the heart.
"After being infected by the Heart-Eating Gu, a light red line will appear on the tip of your thumb. As the Gu erodes your finger, the red line on your hand will get darker and darker. When the red line spreads to your heart, your heart will explode and you will die. This is probably the reason why your hair turned white overnight."
Mo Tu looked at Su Ying and slowly tightened his palm, trying to grab Su Ying's hand, but Su Ying dodged him.
"Hahahaha, Master, when did you know that?"
When on the boat, Su Ying accidentally saw the red line on his palm. At that time, she thought she had seen it wrong, but later she found that it was indeed a red line that appeared from the inside out.
The external characteristics of a person's body are closely related to internal changes, so she found an opportunity to conduct a long examination of his body, which Motu did not know.
When she examined the heart, she discovered something abnormal and later determined that it was a symptom of the heart-eating insect.
"Tell me how much people hate you. This Heart-Eating Gu will take at least ten years to appear in your body with such a long red line. Even though it takes a long time to appear, your life will start counting down after the red line appears. It will spread at a speed you can't imagine. You know this thing exists, otherwise you wouldn't have been carrying a musk sachet to control its development. The Heart-Eating Gu hates the smell of musk the most."
Although the sachet cannot make the heart-eating insect disappear completely, it can curb its development to a certain extent.
But using this thing too much can be harmful to your body, and it will lose its effect once the insect becomes immune to this scent.
"Even if you have lost your memory, you still wear the sachet, which proves that this poison is an obsession for you. Let me guess, this thing was given to you by your beloved brother."
Every time Su Ying said another word, Mo Tu's face turned paler and his cherry red lips gradually lost their color.
"You actually know everything..." His peach blossom eyes gradually turned red, as if he was suppressing great pain. Suddenly, he felt a dull pain in his heart. He covered his heart with his hands and his brows were twisted into a "川" shape.
Seeing this, Su Ying quickly pinched his mouth open and stuffed a pill in. "Don't seek death. This kind of Gu is most afraid of too much emotional fluctuation. If you don't want to see the King of Hell early, calm down."
Tears slid down the contour of his cheeks. He half-knelt on the ground, and the voice was almost squeezed out of his throat, "When I picked him up, he was still a child. He followed me all day long like a tail, calling me brother, brother..."
It was these calls of "brother" that melted his cold heart!
But he would never have imagined that he had put a curse on himself since the day he picked him up!
The bitter medicine dissolved between his lips and teeth, but Motu felt that the bitterness was not even half as much as the pain in his heart!
Su Ying came behind him and pressed several acupoints on his shoulder blades with her fingertips, forcing him to relax and reduce the burden on his heart.
"People who betray you are not worth staying with."
Motu laughed sadly, "That's because you haven't experienced that kind of pain. How can you know my pain?"
Su Ying paused her fingertips and withdrew her hand expressionlessly. She laughed sarcastically and asked, "Have you never experienced this?"
When she was old enough to understand things, she knew what betrayal was, what killing was, and what it meant to die for being soft-hearted!
At the very beginning, she would be sad, angry and even confused, but in the end she understood that all emotions would lose to the truest human nature.
So she became a cold-blooded and ruthless person who strangled everything that was not in her favor. It was not until she came to this world and met Ling'er and the others that her temper gradually softened.
"No one is obligated to understand your pain. Exposing your wounds to others will only expose your weaknesses. Motu, I trust you and I hope you won't let me down."
Su Ying patted his shoulder and placed a black porcelain bottle in his hand.
"The Heart-Eating Gu worm is very cunning. When it finds drugs attacking it, it will cleverly avoid them. If it is awakened, it will perish together with the host. The medicine I gave you has a sedative effect on it, but this sedative contains drugs that can kill it. It will kill it while paralyzing it. This is a gift I give you after I choose to trust you."
As the medicine spread on the tip of the tongue, the dull pain in the heart gradually dissipated.
Mo Tu clenched the medicine in his hand and knelt on one knee in front of Su Ying again.
"Motu is willing to serve the master."
"That's right, young man. Only when you are alive do you have infinite hope."
