Chapter 585 Extra: The Truth Chapter 9



In the days that followed.

Qian Huifeng lived in the castle, and Dong Shuzhen accompanied him.

Si Zhengyang has no wife or children, so he is cared for by hospital caregivers.

After settling his two brothers in, Luo Tianji went to search for the whereabouts of his other two brothers.

He first went to Country H and found Long Yimo lying in a hospital bed.

Long Yimo's situation isn't much better either.

His company was taken over by his son early on, and he often faints and has difficulty recognizing people.

It's like losing one's soul.

It's almost the same as Alzheimer's disease.

When Luo Tianji met him, Long Yimo didn't recognize him and even started fighting with Luo Tianji.

Fortunately, Long Yimo's wife, Zhu Yuhui, was nearby. She called security guards to restrain him and gave him a sedative, after which Long Yimo returned to normal.

After recognizing Luo Tianji, Long Yimo was so excited that he fainted.

When he wakes up again, he'll fight Luo Tianji again.

"Sister-in-law, I want to take Amo back to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. This is our last resort." Luo Tianji's eyes were serious, and his attitude was extremely earnest.

Zhu Yuhui had no choice but to nod and say, "Alright, just call me when you need surgery."

The two chatted about it, and Zhu Yuhui herself became interested: "It just so happens that I haven't been back to China for so many years, so I might as well go back with you."

"Of course, this is good, it'll be more convenient for everyone." Luo Tianji successfully brought Long Yimo and his wife back to China.

He immediately had a room prepared that was in a good location and had good natural light.

The room was on the first floor, making it convenient for them to go out for a walk at any time.

Next, Luo Tianji carried many gifts to Wolong Manor and asked Zhang Huaixu for help.

When Xiaoyouzi came home from school, she saw her master chef in the living room, surrounded by everyone.

Little Yuzu trotted over and naturally sat down next to Zhang Huaixu: "How are you, Master? Is Uncle Long alright?"

“It doesn’t seem like he’s been poisoned, nor is it a natural illness. It’s more like he’s been poisoned by a Gu worm. You should be able to resolve this matter more quickly by asking your Ninth Master.” Zhang Huaixu wrote down the cause of Long Yimo’s illness.

Holding the note, Xiaoyouzi nodded and said, "I see. Then I'll go and check on the situation first."

"You've already figured out how to remove the Gu worm?" Zhang Huaixu looked at Xiaoyouzi curiously.

Xiao Youzi nodded and said, "Yes, when we went to the Miao village before, I was the one who removed the love curse from Senior Brother Qin's body."

“Then I’m very interested in taking a look.” Zhang Huaixu’s eyes lit up.

The master and apprentice chatted, completely forgetting about the people around them.

After listening for a while without understanding anything, Luo Tianji could only ask, "What's wrong? What's the situation now?"

“It’s nothing,” Xiaoyouzi said, getting up. “I’ll go upstairs with my master and check the situation again. I’ll give you an answer later.”

Although she had completely exposed herself, there were still outsiders present, so she felt it was best to be cautious in her words and actions.

Once upstairs, Xiaoyouzi closed the door and sat down next to Long Yimo.

Long Yimo's body was not as weak as Qian Huifeng's, nor was it as emaciated as Si Zhengyang's.

He looks perfectly fine physically, but his mind doesn't seem to be working very well.

Zhang Huaixu explained from the side, "His head has been taken over by Gu worms."

Fortunately, the Gu worms do not automatically produce smaller worms, otherwise his entire body would have been filled with Gu worms long ago.

Little Yuzi frowned in disgust: "Gu worms, Gu worms again, could it be He Zhen who did it again?"

“They shouldn’t have any grudges, right?” Zhang Huaixu knew a little about the situation, his brow furrowing slightly. “It shouldn’t be what you think.”

Shrugging, Xiaoyouzi said, "Even if it wasn't her doing it, it's still related to her people."

Sitting next to Long Yimo, Xiaoyouzi took his pulse, while Zhang Huaixu observed his complexion.

Frowning slightly, Xiaoyouzi said, "The Gu worms have been moving around, hovering near the head and heart."

This is probably the main reason why his mind occasionally goes blank.

"Let me take out the Gu worms first." Xiao Youzi yawned and naturally opened Zhang Huaixu's medicine box.

Zhang Huaixu, watching from the side, casually asked, "Are you planning to use these medicinal herbs to lure it out?"

"This is just a base; the real ingredient is my blood," Xiaoyouzi said, crushing the herbs into powder.

She took a small knife and cut her finger open, the blood dripping onto the medicinal herbs.

Immediately afterwards, she placed the medicinal herbs next to Long Yimo.

About ten minutes later.

Xiao Youzi and Zhang Huaixu both clearly saw that something was pupa-like on Long Yimo's skin, moving towards his mouth.

"This Gu worm is quite plump; it's been raised very well." Zhang Huaixu stroked his chin, beginning to take an interest in the Gu worm.

“It’s not easy to raise a Gu worm,” Little Yuzi said from the side.

The master and apprentice hid some distance away and talked in hushed tones.

The worm crawled out, drawn by the fragrance.

It first poked its head out and looked around.

Only after confirming there was no danger did they slowly crawl towards the pile of Little Yuzu's blood.

"It's time to make a move, Yuzu," Zhang Huaixu whispered.

Little Yuzu muttered to herself, "Shall we catch them alive and take them back to play with?"

She didn't have a single living Gu worm in her possession; they had all been destroyed.

"It's not impossible, but can you guarantee it will survive?" Zhang Huaixu asked with a smile.

Shaking her head, Xiaoyouzi took out a silver needle and threw it directly out.

The silver needle pierced straight into the Gu worm: "Forget it, let's just kill it and go back. No need to dwell on it too much."

“Yes, that’s fine.” Zhang Huaixu nodded.

Soon, Xiaoyouzi took a bottle and put the dead Gu worm inside.

She removed the needles from Long Yimo's body.

This needle was inserted to ensure he cooperated and didn't move.

Not long after the needle was removed, Xiaoyouzi saw Long Yimo slowly wake up.

When he opened his eyes, there was only a blank look in them.

Upon seeing Xiaoyouzi, she asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

"You're awake?" Xiao Youzi walked over, reached out and tugged at Long Yimo's eyelids, holding up one finger: "How many is this?"

"Little friend, I'm not stupid." Seeing that Xiaoyouzi was cute, Long Yimo didn't make things too difficult for her.

Little Yuzu persisted, "Excuse me, what number is this?"

“Three,” Long Yimo quickly replied.

Little Yuzu nodded: "Luckily, my brain isn't completely broken."

She ran outside and shouted, "Uncle Long is awake! Everyone come quick!"

As soon as he uttered that cry, everyone rushed over to check on Long Yimo's condition.

Especially when Luo Tianji held up five fingers to him: "What is this?"

"Five, my head is perfectly fine!" Long Yimo said, rolling his eyes.

Luo Tianji breathed a sigh of relief: "Good, still that smug expression. You're finally normal."

He embellished the story, recounting all the shameful things Long Yimo had done, before leaving in high spirits.

After settling Long Yimo in, Luo Tianji hurried off to search for Xiao Kai's whereabouts...
