Shangguan Jianxing: “…”
Are you kidding me? I just said a few words to you and you put a curse on me?
Shangguan Jianxing felt unwell and asked, "What kind of Gu?"
"It's just an ordinary Gu, called Transparent Gu..." Lan Zhi replied.
"Transparent Gu?"
I have never heard of such a poison in this world.
Shangguan Jianxing held his forehead, feeling that this girl was too wary. Actually, it wasn't Lan Zhi's fault. If he put himself in her shoes, what would happen if a strange man came over, first introduced himself, then said he wanted to meet her, with a charming smile on his face...
No matter how you look at it, he looks like a bad guy with bad intentions.
After all, no matter how open-minded the people of Da Rui are, they are not open enough to the point where a strange man would approach a woman. This is usually something that a playboy would do. Maybe the playboy would even bring a few servants to forcibly take the girl home.
Lan Zhi did not hide her cultivation level when she went out today. Most people would not come to talk to her, and she was happy to be quiet and fish leisurely. At this time, Shangguan Jianxing came over to chat with her. She always felt that the other party had bad intentions. Therefore, based on the concept of "striking first, gaining the advantage", Lan Zhi released more than a dozen transparent Gu.
This kind of poisonous insect is not truly transparent, but is extremely tiny and invisible to the naked eye. You may inadvertently inhale the insect while breathing.
Transparent Gu are basically non-toxic. After all, they are too small and have weak reproductive capacity. The human body is so big that a dozen transparent Gu are not even as big as a human cell, so they really can't cause any trouble.
However, all Gu worms have their uses. The use of this transparent Gu... is a bit speechless. They consume a lot of food. One Gu worm needs to eat three bowls of rice in one meal to be full...
Therefore, whoever is put on this insect will become a glutton.
Lan Zhi cultivated only a dozen transparent Gu in total, and the rice jar in her yard was already empty. She originally thought of starving them to death, or putting these transparent Gu on Yuan Zhan. But after thinking carefully, she realized that Yuan Zhan's family was wealthy, and even if he had a big appetite, Prince Rui's Mansion could afford to support him. Putting these Gu on him would not be a problem, but would allow him to enjoy more delicious food. So she gave up the idea.
"Girl, I have no ill will towards you..."
Shangguan Jianxing touched his face, feeling a bit depressed. In the past, girls often flirted with him, and occasionally men looked at him with covetous eyes, which was enough to prove that he was very handsome. He had always been very confident in his appearance. Who would have thought that Lan Zhi would cast a spell on him as soon as they met? This... This is really...
Shangguan Jianxing couldn't think of any words to describe her, so he could only smile bitterly and said, "Is there an antidote to this poison?"
"Yes. Just tell me what you want from me first, and then I'll help you get rid of the poison." Lan Zhi had been deceived many times in her previous life, so she is very vigilant now. Whenever she sees someone smiling at her, she suspects that the other person has a dagger hidden in his smile.
Except her brothers, of course.
Jun Weihe...can be excluded with some caution.
Shangguan Jianxing never dreamed that he was bewitched because of his seductive smile. He looked around, raised his sleeves, and several paper cranes flew out of his sleeves. The paper cranes landed on the grass around him and turned into an invisible barrier to ensure that the content of the chat would not be leaked.
"What's the matter, sir?"
"I just want to ask, Miss Lanzhi, how is your ferocious beast...?"
As soon as these words came out, Lan Zhi's expression just right showed a hint of confusion and surprise. She asked in surprise: "Me? Raising a ferocious beast?"
Shangguan Jianxing's brows furrowed slightly, then relaxed again. He said, "Miss Lanzhi, I'm an astrologer. I've seen the birth of a ferocious beast. It hatched in the palm of your hand... You don't have to act anymore."
"In my palm?" Lan Zhi seemed startled and almost dropped the fishing rod. She looked at her palm, which trembled slightly twice, then retracted her hand. She looked at Shangguan Jianxing with a look that said "you are a liar" and asked, "Are you really an astrologer?"
"Yes." Shangguan Jianxing was disheartened by her series of reactions and began to wonder if he had seen it wrong that day. He frowned and stared at Lan Zhi's face. He felt that it must be her, but she acted like an innocent bystander...
Shangguan Jianxing said, "Miss Lanzhi, I can tell you that the royal family and the astrologers from Prince Rui's palace have all gone to investigate the whereabouts of the beast, but I'm the only one who found any clues. I didn't make it public, but came to you privately because I didn't want the beast to fall into the hands of the royal family or Prince Rui. You..."
Shangguan Jianxing suddenly couldn't continue speaking.
Originally, he thought it was Lan Zhi who did it, because Lan Zhi was in the Qingyuan realm and had the ability to capture ferocious beasts, but now... Shangguan Jianxing felt that maybe he had really wronged Lan Zhi?
After all, if she really caught the ferocious beast, how could she have the leisure to fish?
Ferocious beasts like to eat flesh and blood. Lan Zhi should search for some dead bodies, or buy some chickens, ducks, cows and sheep for the ferocious beasts to eat. Can the fish caught satisfy the ferocious beasts' appetite?
Just as Shangguan Jianxing was thinking this, he suddenly heard a gurgling sound in his stomach.
Shangguan Jianxing looked embarrassed.
Lan Zhi's mood was also very complicated at the moment, because she had clearly erased all traces of the scene, and also used the Lanshen Flower in order to isolate the stargazers from investigating. The question was who was this Shangguan Jianxing? Other stargazers couldn't find her, but he was the only one who came to her?
What exactly does he want to do?
Countless thoughts flashed through Lan Zhi's mind. She hadn't figured out how to face Shangguan Jianxing, so she just explained dryly, "This is the transparent Gu taking effect. It must have entered your stomach while we were chatting..."
"They want to eat my stomach?" Shangguan Jianxing asked with a slightly changed expression.
Lan Zhi shook her head. "No, no, they like to eat white rice... maybe they like noodles too? But I think it's more convenient to cook rice. I have always fed them rice, never noodles..."
Shangguan Jianxing was so hungry that he didn't care to listen to what Lan Zhi was saying. He reached into his sleeve and pulled out a cold...
Steamed buns?
Lan Zhi was shocked. "Why are you still carrying this with you?"
The main thing is that Shangguan Jianxing was wearing a light purple brocade gown with cloud and silver crane patterns, and a jade pendant hanging around his waist. He looked like a rich young man. How could such a person carry steamed buns?
"Remove the poison for me...quickly..." Shangguan Jianxing said incoherently while wolfing down the steamed bun.
"Wait a minute, I'll buy you something to eat first!"
Lan Zhi didn't even bother to take her own fish bucket and ran away.
