When Yan Jiu and the others returned to the Lang family.
John Lang looked shocked: "What's going on? Quickly, put them on the bed."
Lang Shuhua and his wife never expected that Yan Jiu and Lang Zongyi would return with two injured children after just one trip.
At the very end, there's Jian Wen, the young master of the Jian family, who comes back with her hair being bitten by a dog.
Lang Shuhua glanced into the shadows.
The person in the shadows received the order and flew out.
Lang Shuhua took out a bottle of pills and handed it to Yan Jiu: "Give these to the children first. I have already sent someone to invite the Pill Immortal."
She noticed Yan Jiu's tension, panic, and self-blame, and entrusted the task of feeding her the medicine to her.
She hoped that Yan Jiu could temporarily ease her mood.
then.
He gestured for Lang Zongyi, who was covered in blood, to come out.
I left the room.
Lang Zongyi told Lang Shuhua about it.
Lang Shuhua pondered for a moment: "Jian Zhongyu is not valued, but how can it be that bad? Those lunatics in the Jian family will not let this go. Gu worms are always hard to guard against. I don't know if the two children have been poisoned with Gu."
Although she didn't know why Jian Wen was targeting the two children, she knew there must be more to it than met the eye.
The thorn maze in the Yun family's territory is notoriously difficult to navigate, and the two children's senses have been sealed off, so the fact that they could be tortured in this way speaks volumes.
Yan Jiu fed them medicine and used three hemostatic talismans to stabilize the injuries on Chu Chu and Jian Zhongyu.
She carefully examined their souls, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she was sure their souls were unharmed.
Step outside.
Then I heard Lang Shuhua say those words.
Yan Jiu frowned: "Gu worms?"
Lang Shuhua nodded.
There are reasons why the five Xuanmen families have been able to stand firm. The Chen family started out by relying on elixirs, the Zhong family is more knowledgeable about feng shui, and the Yun family not only uses furnaces and cauldrons but also knows how to set up formations.
The Jian family was harmed by Gu worms.
The Lang family, on the other hand, relies on their own cultivation and magical artifacts.
Being able to maximize any ability is a skill, something that other schools of thought do not possess.
The Jian family's Gu worms have always been feared by everyone, even though the Jian family has sworn not to use them on people in the Xuanmen sect.
However, no one knows whether the Jian family's madness might lead them to break their vows in private.
after all.
It was only the ancestors of the Jian family who made the oath.
It has little to do with the current Jian family.
The power of the oath has now weakened to almost nothing, relying entirely on the self-awareness of the Jian family.
The Jian family is skilled in the art of Gu insects, which is the main reason why the five clans were once led by the Jian family.
The Jian family of Zhongtu is not without reason.
Yan Jiu said expressionlessly, "So that's how it is. No wonder you dared to do such heinous things, relying on the Gu worms."
She touched the corner of the playing card.
He said it casually.
"If their prized Gu worms were to die out by accident, would they still dare to act recklessly?"
Lang Shuhua thought for a moment: "Where there are Gu worms, there are also mother Gu and Gu king. They always protect the mother Gu and Gu king very tightly. The mother Gu probably won't die naturally so easily."
On the surface, she was telling Yan Jiu that this matter was difficult.
In reality, it means that to solve the problem of Gu worms, we must eliminate the mother Gu and the Gu king at the root.
Yan Jiu seemed to be deep in thought.
A single sentence decided the future of the Jian family.
"Humans are born, grow old, get sick and die, and so are Gu worms."
After Yan Jiu finished speaking, she asked Lang Shuhua to take care of Chu Chu and Jian Zhongyu, and then walked outside alone.
System: [Host?]
After Yan Jiu's anger exceeded the critical threshold.
It dared not utter a sound.
Only then did I dare to ask cautiously.
Yan Jiu did not speak.
I simply gazed quietly into the distance.
a long time.
Yan Jiu shook her head and said, "It was I who hurt them."
System: [How could that be? The host isn't like that...]
Yan Jiu looked down at his hands and interrupted, "If I hadn't tried to shift the blame back then, but had dealt with those guys directly, perhaps things wouldn't be like this now."
After seeing Jianwen.
Yan Jiu knew that Jian Zhongyu and Chu Chu's calamity was caused by her, by her taking the peach wood sword.
System: [No, even if you eliminate the root of the problem, those who want to harm others won't give up!]
After getting to know Yan Jiu.
The system knew that Yan Jiu was not the type of person who would regret things; it was Chu Chu and Jian Zhongyu's injuries that triggered her.
This even made the usually calm Yan Jiu lose her composure.
Just as the system was thinking about how to guide people, an unexpected voice came from behind Yan Jiu.
"The Yan Jiu I know wouldn't do that."
Yan Jiu's eyes revealed confusion.
After thinking about it, he didn't shake his head.
She certainly wouldn't have done this before.
She was used to being alone.
Although she dislikes trouble, she is not afraid of trouble either; she even enjoys being hated.
She didn't choose to eliminate the problem completely at that time.
Besides feeling it was unnecessary, there was also the influence of her past life; she had become accustomed to having no weaknesses.
But they forgot.
She is no longer alone in this life.
"Although I don't know exactly what happened, based on what I know about you, you are not at fault. The fault lies with those who caused the trouble."
System: [My crush has hit the nail on the head!]
As prompted by the system.
Yan Jiu only then noticed that Lang Zongyi had followed her. She looked at Lang Zongyi, who was shrouded in the night.
Lang Zongyi's question was phrased as a question, but his tone was firm: "Are you blaming yourself?"
He looked at Yan Jiu, who was becoming more and more like a human being.
It was as if some unseen hand had pulled Yan Jiu down from her cold and ruthless pedestal, pushing her forward and gradually transforming her into a person of flesh and blood.
The owner of those hands is truly amazing.
Yan Jiu said softly, "One of them is my younger brother, and the other is my student."
