Qu Ci didn't say anything immediately. Only after he had filled seventy percent of his stomach did he slowly explain.

It was the second year after Qu Ling left the Miao Boundary. A madman in the neighboring village suddenly had an illness in the middle of the night, and killed himself after he barged into another person's house and killed dozens of people consecutively.

The next day, when the sun rose, the villagers who had lost their loved ones went up to the village's toast, asking the crazy man's family to give them an explanation.

However, that madman only had his own legacy. He only had an old mother, how could he give them any sort of explanation?

Just as the villagers were in a state of chaos, a Miao Family male from another village took out a jar, saying that the Gu Worm inside could revive the dead.

The man had described the Gu Worm in his hand as if it was a god, coaxing a villager to take out all the valuable things in the house in exchange for the Gu.

The next day, the dead family of the villager came back to life.

After this matter spread, the other capable villagers all bought the Gu with that man, saving their dead family members.

When Qu Ling heard this, he could not help but interrupt and say, "The book says that the parasite is very rare and can't be raised."

Qu Ci glanced at her, and said indifferently: "Being rare doesn't mean that you don't have to obtain it, and if you obtain it, it doesn't necessarily mean that there really isn't any way to raise it."

The Miao Boundary and Gu techniques were passed down from generation to generation. After experiencing so many years, many people had a deep understanding of the Dao. As long as they had that kind of thought, they would eventually think of a way.

Xiao Jingyue asked: "What you mean is that someone is raising and breeding this parasite, selling it to others for a windfall?"

The Soul Sealing Parasite had a unique effect, calling it a miracle medicine wouldn't be an exaggeration.

If this Gu can really be reared by humans, then it can indeed bring a lot of wealth to the Gu holder. Under the temptation of money, there was nothing that could be done by those who had gone mad.

As a result, the fact that this Gu would appear in both Qi Jing and Murong Villa was no surprise.

If no one stopped him now, it would only take a few months!

"Yes." Qu Ci nodded lightly.

Qu Ling curled his lips and said: "Life and death naturally have their own destiny. If everyone could escape the shackles of life and death, then wouldn't the six samsara be a decoration?"

"Transcending the shackles of life and death, that's not true." Xiao Jingyue suddenly said.

Qu Ling stared at him, "Then tell me, why not?"

But Xiao Jingyue did not look at her, and continued to ask Qu Ci: "Those people who were resurrected by the Gu Worm, did they all die because of the Gu?"

Qu Ci was startled, a look of praise sweeping past his eyes.

She did not immediately answer Xiao Jingyue's question. Instead, she said to Qu Ling, "Your husband's brain is much more useful than yours."

Qu Ling, "..."

Qu Ci's expression slowly calmed down, and continued: "Of course, precious things grow naturally well. Forcefully nurtured Gu may have the same effect, but it is also extremely easy to change into a Gu. "

To put it bluntly, it was because the quality of the imitation was too poor and the effect was not as good as the real one.

Qu Ling quickly asked: "Then what about the real Soul Sealing Parasite?"

Qu Ci's hands which were hidden inside his sleeves tightened, and said with a slightly hoarse voice: "The true Soul Sealing Parasite can revive the dead, it won't change its shape easily."

Qu Ling raised his head and looked at Xiao Jingyue.

At this time, Qu Ci said: "But that parasite can only be used on women."

Qu Ling opened his mouth wide in shock.

It could only be used on females, then the Gu in Xiao Jingyue's body …

Xiao Jingyue's face revealed a look of astonishment, "May I ask why?"

Qu Ci shook his head, "I don't know why either."

People of Miao were good at raising Gu, Gu Worm s were all rare and mysterious. For example, the Love Gu that everyone knew about could only be used on males.

Therefore, the Soul Sealing Parasite could only be used on females. It wasn't something that was particularly surprising.

Seeing that Qu Ci was unwilling to say more, Xiao Jingyue did not ask further.

After lunch, he went downstairs alone to look for Xiao Yi and Xiao Er.

Qu Ling lay by Qu Ci's side, acting as if he was spoiled when he was young.

Qu Ci helplessly tapped the tip of her granddaughter's nose, "Did you come here with your husband just to investigate the female merchant's Gu?"

Qu Ling paused for a moment, his eyes flashed, and after being tangled for a long while, he mumbled, "Actually, it's not only to investigate the parasite in Huo Xinyi's body."

Qu Ci did not urge her again and waited for her to continue.

After a while, his granddaughter continued: "It's that one, Xiao Jingyue, he..."

Just now, she didn't ask Xiao Jingyue if she could tell her grandma about this. What if she told herself and he got angry and wanted to beat her up?

Qu Ling was still hesitating on whether to say it or not, when Qu Ci suddenly said: "He's not poisoned by the Soul Sealing Parasite."

Qu Ling stood up in shock and turned to look at his grandmother.

She was not surprised that Xiao Jingyue did not get the Soul Locking Gu, the Soul Locking Gu was originally used to kill people, and the man had never died.

What truly surprised her was that her grandma actually knew that Xiao Jingyue had been infected by the parasite.

Back then, she had relied on the Jade Scorpion to find out, but she didn't expect her grandma to find out just by looking.

Qu Ci saw through his granddaughter's surprise and said with disdain, "I have lived dozens of years longer than you, and have interacted with the Gu for half a lifetime. Do you think you can hide it from me just because you don't want to say it?"

After Qu Ling heard this, he immediately broke into a smile, "Grandma is right, Grandma is the best!"

"Don't use the method you use on your grandfather against me."

Qu Ci mercilessly slapped his granddaughter's hand away, "I know the method to remove this parasite, but you must get your husband to personally ask me."

Qu Ling wanted to explain that Xiao Jingyue was not her husband, but she was afraid of being beaten up, so she kept quiet.

No one saw Xiao Jingyue downstairs, and no one knew where he had gone to.

Qu Ling searched up and down the entire third floor but he was unable to find anything, so he decided to just go back to his bedroom to rest.

She was still in a daze from sleep. She seemed to be asleep but also awake. In short, she was not at peace.

When she finally woke up, the sky outside her window had already darkened.

She opened her eyes and saw Xiao Jingyue seated on the bed.

"What time is it?" She rubbed her eyes and sat up.

"A quarter past ten."

Xiao Jingyue looked around the house, "Is this your previous bedroom?"

"Yeah." Qu Ling paused, half lying down, his eyes full of love as he touched the bedside, "The bed and dressing table in this room were all personally made by my Abba."

Qu Ling suddenly thought of his grandma's words, and said: "Grandma said that the Soul Sealing Parasite isn't in your body, and that she knows the method to remove the Gu."

Xiao Jingyue did not say anything and waited for her to continue.

The woman on the bed twisted the quilt unconsciously with her hands, seemingly having met with some difficulty. She frowned for a long time before speaking in a voice as soft as a mosquito's voice, "She told you to go ask her yourself."

Looking at her weak and conflicted appearance, Xiao Jingyue's heart was moved.

He couldn't help but raise his hand to stroke her soft, jet-black hair. Then, he pinched her white face and said warmly, "Let's go out and eat first. We'll talk about other things after filling our stomachs."

Qu Ling pulled off his reckless hands and glared at him unhappily.

After dinner, Xiao Jingyue followed Qu Ci downstairs.

Qu Ling originally wanted to follow along, but her grandma did not let her, so she could only stay in the hall unwillingly.

However, she wasn't someone who could settle down. Not long after, she couldn't help but sneak out.

In the past, Qu Ling loved to watch the night lights of the Miao stronghold the most. When the sky darkened, she would be able to stay in the corridor for one or two hours, but now, she was not in the mood to watch.

She tiptoed down the stairs and just happened to hear her grandmother's cold voice.

"I want you and Ah Ling to get married once in Miao Village, and to kneel in front of the Chi You Temple and swear that she is the only wife of you in this lifetime, and that you will never betray her!"

Qu Ling suddenly froze in place.
