Perhaps he also remembered the tragic sight of the man in the sack. His tightly pursed lips turned pale and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes.
The soldier came to his senses after being yelled at and instantly shut his mouth.
Indeed, they can't control what's going on over there, and talking nonsense can cost you your life...
If I remember correctly, the last batch of people who transported the "sacks" died because they spread rumors outside...
As soon as this thought came to mind, a chill ran down the backs of several people.
The leading man was their backbone. Not wanting to waste any more time, he gritted his teeth and tensed the muscles in his arms. He picked up the two heavy sacks in his hands and turned around, saying, "Stop talking. Let's go!"
The few of them stopped talking, gritted their teeth, held the sacks tightly in their hands, and followed behind.
Gu Yangyang squatted in a hidden place and watched, and did not leave even when her legs were numb.
She suppressed her fear and silently counted the number of sacks that the people were carrying.
There were more than twenty people coming and going!
And this number just corresponds to the number of palace ladies serving inside and outside the palace!
Unexpectedly, the people in these sacks were really the palace maids who were replaced!
She knew that so many people in the palace would not just disappear for no reason!
"Help......"
While Gu Yangyang was thinking, a hand reached out from behind and grabbed her shoulder tightly!
The force was so frightening that it caught me off guard! The temperature on my hand was icy cold...
If Gu Yangyang hadn't been prepared after what happened yesterday, she would have been frightened to the point of cardiac arrest!
She turned her head suddenly and saw that it was the palace maid behind her who spoke.
At this moment, the palace maid's face showed unspeakable fear, and her wide-open eyes were empty and fearful!
Her lips trembled, as if she wanted to say something.
His hands were tightly clasped on Gu Yangyang's shoulders, as if he was drawing strength from her...
Gu Yangyang immediately understood her intention, and quickly stood up and took her away.
Her steps were fast and quick, but her heart was pounding because the truth was about to be revealed!
She didn't stop until she was far away from the corner. She turned around and stared at the palace maid in front of her and asked:
"What do you know? Can you tell me?"
Her tone was somewhat urgent, but the maid's lips only trembled and she could not make any sound except for the word "help"...
She seemed to be stimulated by the sight of the soldiers carrying the corpses just now, and she briefly regained some consciousness, but this little bit of consciousness was too little. She wanted to say something, but seemed to be stopped by something...
Seeing that she couldn't make a sound, Gu Yangyang suddenly became a little anxious.
Although she had guessed the truth based on rumors from the outside world, she needed to hear the exact facts before she could further carry out her next plan.
Sizzle...
[Ding! Host, the golden seal cocoon has reacted...]
The system's voice suddenly sounded, giving Gu Yangyang, who was at a loss, a clue.
She took out the golden silk cocoon from the mysterious ring, and found that it was slightly hot and emitting a faint golden light...
[Ding! This palace maid has been poisoned by someone, and the poisonous insect in her body has reacted with the golden seal silkworm cocoon in your hand.]
[Host, can you try to use the golden silk cocoon in your hand to remove the poisonous insect from this palace maid's body...]
Listening to the system's answer, Gu Yangyang immediately thought of the system's previous request for her to use the Soul Gathering Fairy Lamp to modify her appearance. Although she also agreed with the system's words, she still couldn't help but complain:
"Are you sure it will work this time?"
After all, even though she used the Soul Gathering Fairy Lamp to modify her appearance, Jiang Zhisi and Jiang Ziqing still recognized her at a glance...
007: [......]
[Ding! Please rest assured, host. Jiang Zhisi and Jiang Ziqing can recognize the host because of special circumstances... others still cannot recognize the host. ]
Gu Yangyang thought about it and realized that it was true. Except for Jiang Zhisi and Jiang Ziqing who recognized her, no one else in the palace realized that she was a woman...
She placed the golden silk cocoon in front of the palace maid. The golden silk cocoon in her hand became hotter and hotter, and the palace maid's face gradually showed a look of pain...
Seeing the palace maid's face getting paler and paler, Gu Yangyang was hesitating whether to stop, when she saw the palace maid suddenly bend down, and with a "wow" she spit out a black thing from her mouth!
Gu Yangyang looked closely and saw that it was a bug shaped like a centipede with black air wrapped around its body!
The insect twisted on the ground and left the human body. It became very manic and sniffed the human scent in the air. It actually rushed towards where Gu Yangyang was standing!
Fortunately, Gu Yangyang was holding the golden silk cocoon tightly in her hand. In a hurry, she held the hand holding the golden silk cocoon in front of her.
The palm of my hand felt hot and a golden light flashed.
All I heard was the insect making a "hissing" sound, falling to the ground, emitting white smoke, twisting in pain, and soon turning into a pool of blood!
The palace maid who had collapsed on the ground had long since regained consciousness and was staring blankly at the scene before her.
Gu Yangyang couldn't guarantee that killing the poisonous insect would not attract the attention of the person who put the poison on her, so she could only turn around and grab the palace maid to ask her.
"Don't be afraid. The thing that controls you has disappeared. I will send you out of the palace and leave here later."
"Now tell me first, what is going on in this palace?"
She did not press the issue, but first promised to guarantee the other party's safety. When the palace maid heard this, her anxious heart seemed to have a home in an instant, and tears fell without cost.
She did not realize that the person in front of her was also a woman. She only thought that this was a capable and handsome young eunuch. She held Gu Yangyang's arm tightly and cried, choking and speaking incoherently:
"It's too scary here... The late emperor is not dead at all! He practiced evil magic and deceived everyone! He turned into a monster and he eats people! He eats living people!"
"He feeds these strange drugs to every eunuch and palace maid who enters the palace, just to use this strange insect to control everyone! Everyone who enters the palace is nothing more than food chosen by him..."
The maid felt cold all over and couldn't stop shaking.
Gu Yangyang secretly passed a trace of spiritual power to her to warm her body, and asked, "Then do you know where the late emperor is hiding? And who forced you to take this strange medicine?"
The maid suddenly felt a little better and her emotions calmed down a little. She said slowly:
"There is a long tunnel between the imperial mausoleum and the imperial palace. He hid in the mausoleum and the food was transported through the tunnel..."
"And the one who forced us to take this strange medicine...is His Majesty!"
