Chapter 168 Entrusting the Life Gu
Chapter 168 Entrusting the Life Gu
Just as Lin Xi was about to refuse, there was a noise from the alley. Ah Si suddenly became very nervous, and Lin Xi also looked back.
The next second, Ye Xi appeared at the entrance of the alley. Ah Si relaxed when she saw that it was with Lin Xi.
Lin Xi asked: "Uncle, why are you here?"
Ye Xi said: "I see you are too slow, come and have a look."
From the moment they got off the boat, Ye Xi knew that Ah Si had been following them, but because he didn't mean any harm, Ye Xi didn't say anything.
When he returned to the room, he noticed something strange about Lin Xi. He guessed that Lin Xi must have discovered it. Sure enough, Lin Xi did not go back to the room in the end, but came out.
He also followed Lin Xi out of the B&B. However, he did not follow her into the alley. He knew that Ah Si was no match for Lin Xi, so he was not very worried and just waited at the door of the B&B.
However, seeing that Lin Xi didn't come out after ten minutes, he came over to have a look.
Lin Xi said: "It's nothing, let's go."
With that said, He Yexi was about to walk out of the alley.
Ah Si was anxious, "Do you really think about it?"
Lin Xi was not moved by this.
Ah Si said again: "I know what that Gu insect of yours is looking for!"
At this time, Lin Xi stopped, turned her head and asked, "What is it?"
Ah Si hesitated for a moment and said: "As long as you help me keep the life Gu, I will give that thing to you."
Lin Xi was a little embarrassed. This was the first time she had seen Dabai so anxious when he saw something other than spiritual water. But if they agree to him, it will definitely be a big trouble. Once trouble comes to them, Lin Xi can't guarantee whether he can protect his family. Even though Ye Xi is here and my skills are pretty good, there are always times when I make mistakes.
Seeing that Lin Xi still didn't let go, Ah Si took out a small bottle from her pocket. He opened the bottle and poured out a small translucent jade stone.
Ah Si carefully held it with one hand and carefully put the bottle back with the other hand.
Lin Xi took a closer look and immediately realized something was wrong. This was not jade!
Lin Xi saw something squirming inside. It was obviously a cocoon. Moreover, Lin Xi smelled a vague fragrance coming from the cocoon.
Lin Xi asked: "What is this?"
Ah Si replied: "This is a jade cocoon. It can hatch Gu insects that extend their lifespan. At the same time, other Gu insects can greatly increase their strength by eating it."
The white hair in Lin Xi's hair was so excited that she couldn't move, but because she was afraid of Lin Xi, she didn't dare to act rashly anymore. She could only lie on Lin Xi's hair and look at the cocoon helplessly.
Understanding this reaction, Lin Xi believed that this should be what attracted him to Ah Si.
Lin Xi glanced at Ye Xi, who seemed to know her concerns, "You can take it if you want."
She knew that Ye Xi was telling her not to worry, since he, her uncle, would be there for everything.
Lin Xi turned around and asked, "Did they arrest you because of this jade cocoon?"
Ah Si replied: "I can't tell you this."
Lin Xi said: "If you don't tell me, I don't think I can promise you."
Ah Si hesitated for a long time before saying, "Yes."
Sure enough, I guessed it right. When I met Ah Si for the first time, although she was in a hurry, she was not panicked, and Dabai was not excited either.
But from the second time they met, Dabai began to be infatuated with him, and Ah Si's pace became even faster. It wasn't until this third time that Lin Xi was sure he was hiding from someone.
Lin Xi asked: "Did you steal this thing?"
Ah Si nodded, her expression a little gloomy, "They wanted my life Gu, but I refused. When I escaped, I stole their jade cocoon."
Lin Xi asked: "Who are they?"
Having said this, Ah Si did not hide it anymore, "They are my tribe."
I heard Ming Xiujing say before that Ah Si has always been a loner since he was known to others. Lin Xi thought he had no family.
Ah Si said: "All of our clan are Gu masters. My father has thrown me into a pile of Gu since I was born. Those poisonous insects bit me and there was no good skin on my body. Soon I stopped crying. Voice.
They all thought I was dead, but they didn't expect that I was not dead. A Gu worm got into my body, burrowed around my body and came out again. After it came out, it started to protect me and killed all the bugs that bit me. From then on, it became my destiny.
At that time, they didn't see the difference, they just thought it was powerful. However, there are so many powerful Gu insects that they don't care.
Later, as I grew up, I also learned the art of Gu refining, and became the most promising person among the younger generation in the clan.
However, one time I was injured in the mountains. When they brought me back, there was no part of my body that was healthy, and my internal organs were bleeding. The wizards in the clan said that I was hopeless, but three days later, I miraculously recovered, which surprised everyone.
In order to know the secrets about me, they locked me up and looked for the reason in me. Later, they found out that my life Gu saved me, and it could repair the damage to my body. With such a natal Gu, it is undoubtedly a 'golden body'.
So, they started trying to refine such a Gu, but they didn't succeed. They wanted me to hand over my life Gu, but I didn't agree and ran away from the clan.
I changed my name and ran around in various woods, and spent three years like this. However, they found me some time ago and took me back to the clan. I escaped while the clan's guard was down. "
After listening to Ah Si's story, Lin Xi was a little silent. She felt that Ah Si's life experience was so pitiful and that his people were so crazy. Although he just briefly told the whole story, Lin Xi could tell from his expression that his people were not simply copying the recipe, but had conducted experiments and research on him. They were really a bunch of lunatics.
Lin Xi said: "Then you gave me your life Gu?"
Ah Si said: "My grandma has been imprisoned by them. I have to go back to rescue her. But I can't go back with my life Gu. You are the best candidate."
Lin Xi was silent. Ah Si's natal Gu was obviously a hot topic. She thought for a while and asked, "Does anyone know that we know each other?"
Ah Si said: "Except for Yang Yunfeng's family who invited me there, no one knows that we have met."
Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Yang Yunfeng and the others were still very relieved. The more people know about it, the easier it is to be exposed. She still understands this truth.
She thought about it and said, "I promise you."
Hearing Lin Xi agreed, a smile appeared on Ah Si's face.
