When Jinshu saw the umbrella, she was somewhat surprised.
When Gu Qingli passed the umbrella over to her, she noticed that her expression was a bit unnatural. She smiled and said, "What? You didn't expect him to return the umbrella to you?"
Jin Shu pursed her lips and said, "No …" "No worries, this servant will retire now."
"Did you think he would give you the umbrella?"
"No …." How could this servant dare to trouble Lord Lu with such a small matter? It's just that this servant didn't think of it … He actually knows how to return the umbrella. "
Gu Qingli looked at her and smiled. "If he doesn't come looking for you, can't you go looking for him?"
Jinshu anxiously said, "Wangfei, don't take this servant for fun. This … Your servant has left. " She fled in panic, her face red to the ear.
Gu Qingli smiled and shook her head. She withdrew her gaze from Jin Shu's back and casually glanced over it, only to discover that there was a faint shadow of a person flashing past the garden outside the courtyard wall.
She stopped smiling and threw herself out suspiciously, but saw nothing.
"Qing Li, Qing Li?"
Xiao Yixiu called out to Gu Qing Li, but seeing his anxious expression, he hurried over and hugged her. "Where did you go?"
"I'm fine, why are you so worried?" Gu Qingli smiled comfortingly.
"What are you doing out so late? I'm worried about you. "
"It's nothing. I saw a shadow just now, but I didn't see it clearly. I didn't notice anything when I chased after it. Maybe I'm seeing things."
"Wu Yu is crazy, Cheng Ying Zhi is not around anymore, I need to be quiet for a while." Although Zhou Zhen has yet to reveal her identity, it seems like there has been no reaction. I will get some people to pay more attention to her. "
Gu Qingli nodded.
Xiao Yi Xiu held her hand and asked, "Recently, when you were lucky, did you feel any movement from the Gu worm in your body?"
"No, it's been very quiet." Gu Qingli raised her head to look at the sky. The clouds had just dispersed from the sky when a bright moon gradually appeared like a jade plate. The moonlight tonight should be pretty good.
"Come, let me help you try your luck."
"En!" Gu Qingli sat down on the stone block. Recently, the two of them had been trying their luck and felt the movements of the Gu worms in her body. It could be said that they had gained some of the Gu's habits.
However, on a bright moonlight night, it would be especially active. Perhaps it had a special feeling for the moonlight, or perhaps it wanted to collect the moonlight's essence. At this time, with luck walking through its meridians, it could always feel that it wanted to break out of the body.
However, they had tried many times and failed to expel it from Gu Qing Li's body. They were also unable to control it with ease. Only when Gu Qing started killing, would it appear in a flash and transmit the deadly poison from her fingertip, causing the victim to die from the poison.
Xiaoyi Xiu pressed her palm against Gu Qing Li's back and slowly closed her eyes. She felt the strand of yang energy enter her body and slowly circulate through her heart, lungs, spleen, liver, and other meridians.
A black line appeared on Gu Qing Li's arm, quickly reaching towards her fingertip. She could almost feel the Gu worm reaching out from the fingertip, but it was always lingering at the tip, as if it felt very comfortable and didn't resist the true energy that was pushing it at all.
Xiao Yi Xiu's zhen Qi was increasing. He was twisting his body but he didn't resist. He didn't dare to force it too much. He was afraid that if he added too much true energy, it would cause a berserk backlash within Gu Qing Li's body.
Suddenly, a dot of black spiraled out from her fingertip. It was as if the smoke had condensed but did not dissipate. It became thicker and thicker as it gradually took the shape of a triangular snake head, swaying its body gracefully.
Tonight, it seemed to be very excited, ready to break out at any time.
Just as Xiao Yi Xiu was about to use his true energy to force it out of his body, he suddenly saw a black thread piercing through Gu Qing Li's fingertip, making a shrill sound as it circled around her at a speed that couldn't be described with words. Even with Xiao Yi Xiu's eyesight, he was unable to see what it was, and could only barely make out the black bug.
He did not dare to reach out and grab it. She waved her sleeve and deflected the attack. Gu Qingli opened her eyes and used a free hand to cover its head with a porcelain bottle.
Both of them were moving at extremely high speeds, especially Xiao Yixiu, whose speed was so fast that even if he didn't take any action, the black streak had already been wrapped around her white sleeves like a tornado. However, it continued to move along with the wind, brushing past the porcelain bottle and crashing into Gu Qing Li's arms.
"Where did he go?" Xiao Yi Xiu exclaimed.
However, Gu Qingli only felt a light bump on her chest. Following that, the needle-like feeling disappeared after a brief headache.
She lowered her head in shock and touched her chest. Apparently, there was nothing out of the ordinary.
Xiao Yi Xiu didn't have time to ask any further questions as he carried her into the house. He untied her clothes and examined her white skin carefully, but there wasn't a single scar on her snow-white skin, let alone any trace of a Gu worm.
"Did you see what it was like?" Gu Qingli's face was a bit pale, and her fingers felt cold as she held him.
It feels like … "Dragon?" He recalled with narrowed eyes and said uncertainly. It was unheard-of for a dragon to be as thin as a thin line, but at the time it did look like an unformed dragon.
"There are very small horns on its head, but they have not fully grown out yet. It is difficult to see its face clearly, perhaps it is a dragon-shaped worm … Qing Li, what's wrong with you? "
Right at that moment, Gu Qingli was already bent over in pain. She covered her heart with her hands, cold sweat seeping out of her forehead, and her lips were pale without a trace of blood.
"I …" Her hands had been trembling the entire time, tightly gripping his. Then she saw the dark gas faintly appearing on her face, and suddenly the black thread randomly appeared on her exposed skin. It no longer moved from her arm to her fingertips, but from her neck and chest, appearing as fast as lightning, disappearing in a flash as if it had swam all over her body.
Xiao Yi Xiu's heart sank. He instinctively felt that they might have infuriated him. He wanted to retaliate in such a manner, instead of staying safely within her body, he had turned into harming her body.
"What should we do? Can you let it enter my body? " He held her nervously, but there was nothing he could do.
No matter how vicious and cruel a person was, he would have a way to deal with him. However, this Gu that did not understand human nature and was half intelligent, he really had no way.
Gu Qingli was unable to answer him. She had her eyes closed the entire time, and even when her nails tore his arms apart, she was still unable to wake up.
Xiao Yixiu looked at her in agony, his brow furrowed. His hair was in disarray from the trembling, and there was sweat on his forehead. It was as if he was in hell, but he couldn't help at all.
He didn't know how much time had passed before he felt Gu Qingli gradually awaken from her long hellish nightmare. Her lips were still pale, and sweat dripped down her chin.
