Chapter 100
The doctor sent these photos to the chief professor, asking if he had ever seen such bugs.
"I suspect these bugs turned into black water, Professor. I am not well-versed in this field. Do you know what kind of bugs they are?"
The chief professor quickly replied:
"These are Gu worms!"
"Where did you take these photos?"
When the doctor saw that they were Gu worms, he was startled. He had heard of Gu worms before, but he had never seen them. He thought they were just horrifying things invented in movies and novels. He never expected that they actually existed in reality. Yôur favorite stories at novelhall.com
So, this is what Gu worms look like. He learned something new.
He quickly replied, "I had a patient who vomited these worms. I couldn't identify any cause of the illness, so I came to ask you."
The chief professor responded, "Send her back immediately. This is not an illness that can be cured at the hospital. She needs to find someone who understands Gu and can remove it. Otherwise, when the time comes, not even a deity can save her life."
After reading the message from the chief professor, the doctor's face turned grave. He looked at Chen Xiaohui, who was anxiously staring at him, and he couldn't bear it.
But he couldn't be of any help either. He sighed heavily and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I can't help you. You better hurry and take your friend to find someone who can remove the Gu."
Hope shattered, and the light in Chen Xiaohui's eyes dimmed.
After thanking the doctor, Chen Xiaohui returned to the ward. Li Man had already fainted from the pain.
In just one night, Li Man had been tormented by Gu worms to the point of being unrecognizable. Her face was pale and sallow, with dark circles under her eyes. Even in her unconscious state, her brows were tightly furrowed, and she wore a pained expression on her face.
Chen Xiaohui didn't know what to do. She took out her phone and called Gu Ya, hoping that Gu Ya, with her extensive knowledge and connections, might know someone who could help with curse removal.
It was still early in the morning when the phone rang for a long time before someone finally answered.
As soon as the call connected, Chen Xiaohui burst into tears and said, "Gu Ya, Li Man has been cursed... sob... sob..."
Gu Ya, who was still half-asleep, was jolted awake by her words. "What? What did you say? Li Man has been cursed?"
