Chapter 128 Golden Silkworm Gu
Realizing that he had been staring at her for a long time, Xie Chengyan looked away, pretending nothing happened, but his body recalled the absurdity of that night.
"Does Your Majesty like my eyes very much?"
Ye Lanzhou suddenly spoke up and asked a question that caught Xie Chengyan off guard.
However, before he could answer, Ye Lanzhou asked to himself, "Is it because my eyesight is not good?"
Xie Chengyan was about to refute her previous statement, but he was choked and didn't know what to say. You are already an adult, and you still have to show off all this talk?
"I wonder if I can enter the prince's bedroom?"
Xie Chengyan raised an eyebrow, "What?"
"Don't think too much, Your Highness. I gave you that medicine because I was about to die. If the toad's blood was in my hand, I wouldn't be alive today." Ye Lanzhou stretched out his hand and slowly revealed his palm. It was white and there was obviously nothing on it.
Xie Chengyan looked over intently, and the next moment, he saw a bug as big as half a palm slowly poking out from the cuff. The bug was very smart and suddenly stretched out its head. It was not used to the outside environment yet, so it shrank inside at first, as if it had found a bit of comfort in Ye Lanzhou's cuff, and then it poked its body out.
If a child took out this thing, Xie Chengyan would just think that he was teasing her with a bug, but she was Ye Lanzhou, and the bug in her hand must not be an ordinary thing.
"What is this?" Xie Chengyan asked.
"This is the antidote for the prince. Place the golden silkworm Gu on the prince's eyes every day. In less than half a month, the blood clots in the prince's eyes will disappear."
The golden silkworm Gu smelled the scent of an outsider and seemed to become even more excited.
Ye Lanzhou gently moved it with his palm, signaling it not to scare anyone. The Golden Silkworm Gu's temperament was determined by its owner. Ye Lanzhou was ruthless and could kill people without them even noticing, and the Golden Silkworm Gu was also bloodthirsty.
But Ye Lanzhou didn't want it to kill people now, but to cure diseases.
Xie Chengyan had never seen such a big poisonous insect before. It was fat and big, and its body was glowing with a strange golden color.
In one of the few books in the Great Yin Kingdom that document the Southern Xinjiang Moon Worship Cult, there's a mention of a poisonous insect. It's about a master gathering poisonous snakes, centipedes, scorpions, spiders, toads, mantises, and black ants in a jar, then feeding them a piece of his own flesh and a little blood daily for three years to create the Golden Silkworm Gu.
The book records that this insect is the size of a human palm and has almost omnipotent effects, but this still comes down to the owner's practice method.
He knew Ye Lanzhou was no ordinary person, but he had never imagined she could possess such abilities. This golden silkworm Gu was not easy to refine, yet she actually had one.
Seeing Xie Chengyan's silence, Ye Lanzhou retracted his palm, letting the golden silkworm Gu return to his sleeve, and said, "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, or is afraid, then just pretend you haven't seen it."
These words were said with a hint of provocation. He had been thinking that the orthodox way would not cure it, so he wanted to try these unorthodox ways she mentioned. Moreover, her words instantly aroused Xie Chengyan's competitive spirit. He sneered and said, "Would I be afraid?"
As he spoke, he stood up and nodded to Ye Lanzhou, motioning her to follow him.
The room they were staying in was Xie Chengyan's study. There was no bed in the study, and the golden silkworm Gu wouldn't stay in its sight. Xie Chengyan led her through a courtyard and finally to his bedroom.
The furnishings in the dormitory are similar to those in the study, the only difference is that there are fewer books and one more bed.
When he was halfway there, Ye Lanzhou suddenly asked, "Aren't you afraid that I might take the opportunity to kill you?"
