"Sister, I can answer your question from before now!"
Before parting, Miao Sanbai grabbed Lin Xue's sleeve.
"Let's go sit down over there and talk!"
Lin Xue gestured to Miao Sanbai, then greeted Lei Jing and the other two before going alone with Miao Sanbai to the pedestrian rest benches provided by the food street.
"elder sister!"
Miao Sanbai glanced at Lin Xue, then lowered his head nervously, his two thumbs constantly crossing back and forth, as if he were very nervous.
"It's alright, go ahead and tell me!"
Lin Xue reached out and patted Miao Sanbai on the shoulder. She wouldn't believe there wasn't some hidden story behind this.
"Phew~"
Miao Sanbai took a deep breath, composed himself, and then slowly began to speak.
"Sister, this is what happened!"
"Just last night, the grandson of the old lady whose wallet I robbed earlier met me at the entrance of the community, and he gave me a bag of cookies!"
At that time, the old lady was standing not far away watching, and I knew that the child must have done it on the old lady's orders.
That night, I was forced by some bad guys to go to the pedestrian street to find someone with bad character to steal some things!
Originally, I was unwilling to harm the old lady, but I accidentally saw a person dressed in black and wearing a black hat stuff something into her bag.
At that time, I was standing at the other end of the stall where the old lady and her group were, so I saw the whole scene clearly.
Because it was so close, I could vaguely sense that it was definitely not a good thing!
As Miao Sanbai spoke, he rubbed his arms. He seemed to feel uneasy, as if he had something unclean on him.
"Three Hundred, things are definitely not that simple. Can you tell your sister the truth?"
"I promise you, I will never tell anyone without your consent!"
Lin Xue made a zipping motion onto her mouth.
"Sister, there are some things you'd better not know! I'm worried those people will find you and do something to hurt you!"
A sense of despair was revealed in Miao Sanbai's eyes.
This made Lin Xue, who had been observing him the whole time, feel a pang of unease.
"Sanbai, I can protect myself, and I really want to help you!"
"You can try trusting your sister. She would never do anything to hurt you!"
The more Lin Xue listened, the more she felt that this matter was not simple, and that there must be an unexpected conspiracy hidden behind it.
Since she had already encountered the situation, and she had also provided Miao Sanbai with the opportunity to go to school.
Even if she knows nothing, what's meant to happen will happen eventually; there's no way to avoid it.
Miao Sanbai understood the key points, which is why he was willing to tell Lin Xue, wasn't he?
"Sister, look!"
Miao Sanbai hesitated for a while before stretching out his arm, rolling up his sleeve to reveal his arm covered in red veins.
What's going on?
The moment Lin Xue saw Miao Sanbai's arm, her mind went completely blank.
She could clearly see the veins, like blood vessels, writhing wildly beneath Miao Sanbai's skin.
Lin Xue was certain that the thing was not something that should be on a human body, since everyone knows that the meridians on a person's body are bluish in color.
Red ones like Miao Sanbai are extremely rare, and they are still wriggling wildly.
It looked like a writhing, crawling earthworm; it was truly horrifying to look at.
"This is a Red Thread Gu!"
After seeing that Lin Xue had seen clearly, Miao Sanbai immediately lowered his sleeve and tightly covered his wrist.
"Red Thread Gu? How come you have something like that on you?"
Lin Xue found it hard to believe that she would encounter a child afflicted with a Gu curse as soon as she arrived in Chuncheng.
"This red thread gu has been in my body ever since I can remember."
"Although my parents never mention this to me, I have overheard them talking about it behind my back."
It was because our family offended some powerful enemy that they used the Thousand Threads Poison on my mother while she was pregnant.
The red thread gu within me was inherited from the mother's Thousand Threads Guidance!
At this point, Miao Sanbai buried his head in his arms again, and Lin Xue could feel his deep despair and helplessness.
"Do you know who your enemy is?"
Lin Xue suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
Although she had read many folk tales and novels while searching for information about Gu magic online, they all described this Miao Gu magic as incredibly skillful, insidious, and vicious!
Although she herself was also under the influence of the Gu, she couldn't feel it at all normally.
If it weren't for Lei Yuan's reminder, Lin Xue would never have thought of this.
But now, a real-life example has appeared before her.
Lin Xue suddenly felt a deep sense of awe towards this mysterious Gu technique.
"I don't know. When I was 5 years old, my parents took me out of the village and we've lived in the city ever since!"
"I also tried to find where my family originally lived, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't remember where I lived when I was a child!"
"I only remember that our family walked for a whole day, then rode in an oxcart for another day, and finally boarded a bus to go outside!"
