Chapter 502: Silent Gu

The uncle actually caught fire without any fire!

Su Jiuyue was quick to act and quickly pulled Lin Qingqing back.

Li also reacted immediately and retreated to a safe distance.

Tuoba Xiong pulled Guan Ruoyu back and also dragged the woman to a safe place.

"Uh...uh..."

The uncle's eyes were red with anger, but he couldn't utter a word, so he could only hum with his neck stretched out.

It sounds like the howling of a ghost, very creepy.

Su Jiuyue looked at Lin Qingqing, who was lying on her shoulder with no sign of waking up, and was glad that she could not see such a creepy scene.

Otherwise, you would be scared to death.

The uncle disappeared from sight in just a moment and turned into a ball of black powder.

Blown up by the wind, it looks extremely weird!

Everyone present was stunned. Even though they were knowledgeable and experienced, they were still frightened by the scene before them.

A living person.

Just burn yourself to death right in front of them!

Speaking of calmness, only the captured woman remained calm.

There was no sadness or joy in his eyes, just like a human puppet.

Li was used to seeing people die, so even though this scene was strange, he didn't lose his wit.

Thinking of her daughter, Li hurried to the other side of Su Jiuyue.

"Yue'er, are you okay? Don't be afraid, mom is here!"

Su Jiuyue shook her head.

I have seen many cruel ways of death in my previous life.

It was just a death by burning, which was not enough to scare her.

Su Jiuyue handed Lin Qingqing over to Li and walked up to the woman.

Crouch down.

"You are not this uncle's wife, are you?"

The woman did not answer Su Jiuyue's question.

He just closed his only remaining eye and neither looked nor spoke.

Su Jiuyue didn't make a big fuss about her attitude.

I just took a look at the remains of the uncle that were burned to powder.

"There is no affection between you and him. Even though you try your best to hide it, I can see that you hate him."

"The auntie was at the door just now. She seemed to dislike us, but in fact, she didn't want us to fall into her trap, right?"

"Auntie, he is dead. You don't have to be afraid of him."

Su Jiuyue's voice was soft and soothing to hear.

The woman's stern face showed some movement.

The only remaining eye opened.

Looking at Su Jiuyue, there was a sadness in his eyes that Su Jiuyue could not understand.

"you……"

The woman's voice was a little hoarse, which made people's eardrums feel uncomfortable and was really not very pleasant to hear.

"You'd better leave tonight. This is not a good place."

"You don't need to ask more. I can't tell you."

The woman looked at the pile of black powder with her only remaining eye.

"If you say something you shouldn't say, that's the outcome..."

The woman had no expression on her face, as if her fate was of no consequence.

Guan Ruoyu's eyes lingered on the black fan and the woman, his mind wandering, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

"We will take you to the government office and we will arrive at Qingxi County at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain tomorrow. We cannot let you go now."

"We must report this to the police. You are just the right person to serve as a witness."

"When I came here, there was a body of a young boy. I don't know where his family is. The county magistrate needs to find out..."

Su Jiuyue looked at the woman without allowing any argument.

No matter why she became the uncle's accomplice, she had to go to the county government to explain.

The boy was only twelve or thirteen years old. They abducted him here somehow and he died tragically in this deep mountain.

It's totally unscrupulous.

"How is that boy...?"

The woman looked at Su Jiuyue with one eye and asked Su Jiuyue cautiously.

"Dead, killed by a poisonous snake. I see both new and old wounds on his body. I guess he must have been abused for a long time."

"Even if he wasn't bitten by the venomous snake, I'm afraid he wouldn't live long..."

"We just buried him hastily when we came. He was a poor ..."

I thought the woman would be sad or have some other expression when she heard that the boy had died.

The woman smiled with relief.

"Thank you very much. Finally, he has a good place to go. The underworld is much better than the purgatory on earth."

"Hey! You evil woman! How can you talk like that!"

"Such a young boy was tortured to death, and you actually laughed!"

Not to mention Su Jiuyue, even Tuoba Xiong couldn't stand it anymore!

I couldn't help but scold out loud!

"If his biological parents knew about this, they would be so heartbroken! This is truly a sin!"

Li also spoke out of concern.

"It would be better if I died."

The woman kept talking to herself and seemed unable to hear anything else.

"Instead of suffering this torture, it is better to die quickly. In the next life, be careful not to be reborn into my stomach again..."

"No... I have harmed so many people. In my next life, I can only be reborn as a beast at best!"

The woman smiled bitterly and shook her head.

The hoarse voice was bitter.

Su Jiuyue caught the message in her words.

"Are you his biological mother?"

"brute!"

Tuoba Xiong was furious, his eyes were spitting fire, and he wished he could beat the woman to death!

The woman remained indifferent.

"Before he came, our family was very happy."

The woman glanced at the remains of the bearded man.

"Don't be fooled by the remote location where we live. My husband is a good hunter!"

"He hunted, and I grew some vegetables. I worked from sunrise to sunset. In my free time, I would take Brother Hu to the county town to buy groceries. I thought I could live a smooth life."

"But unfortunately, this demon has set its sights on us!"

"In order to force my husband to submit, he blinded one of my eyes. My husband was panicked at the time and did not dare to fight back no matter how he tortured him."

"Later, in front of him, I..."

"My husband was killed by him, right in front of me, with a laundry stick, one stick after another, one stick after another..."

As the woman spoke, her eyes turned red and she actually shed red tears!

"He forced me to torture my Hu Ge'er if I didn't cooperate with him..."

"I dare not disobey. My husband is dead and nothing can happen to the child!"

"But no matter how obedient I was, he still wouldn't let Hu Ge'er go! He beat and scolded him every day, burned him with a red-hot iron, and made him kneel naked in the snow in the cold winter..."

"I dare not beg for mercy. If I do, he will only torture us even more severely..."

"Totally unscrupulous..."

Su Jiuyue squeezed out these words from between her teeth.

Li was already in tears.

She could imagine how miserable and desperate this woman must be...

Tuoba Xiong was so angry that he punched the pillar next to him!

"Damn it!"

The woman closed her eyes in pain, her voice still hoarse and filled with bottomless despair.

"We thought about dying, but... we didn't have a chance to die..."

"Now, Brother Hu finally doesn't have to suffer this anymore, and I have no regrets..."

"He has a mysterious organization behind him, and they need a large number of living people to cultivate Gu..."

"Uh……"

"No, back off!"

This familiar scene made Su Jiuyue immediately alert, and she called on everyone to step back!

Sure enough, before the woman finished her words, she, like the bearded man, spontaneously combusted!

"What kind of evil magic is this!"

Tuoba Xiong said angrily with lingering fear!

"Silence Gu."

Guan Ruoyu suddenly spoke with a sullen face.

"Speech-ban Gu?"

Su Jiuyue suddenly raised her eyes!

"Doctor Guan knows what's going on?"

Guan Ruoyu's expression was solemn.

"I'm sure this is the Silence Gu, one of the ancient Miao poisons."

"If a person infected with the Gu speaks the forbidden words, he will become like this, spontaneously combusting without fire, and his body will be destroyed."

"It's Gu again..."

Su Jiuyue muttered to herself.

Li's expression was filled with indescribable disgust.

After pondering for a while, Su Jiuyue made a decision.

"It's getting late, and we're far from the official road. It's not convenient to start again. It's dark and windy at night. It would be bad if we get lost."

"Besides, it's so late now, and this place is remote. We might have wild animals. I think we should just rest here today?"

According to her original plan, she was going to rest for one night at this uncle's house.

This uncle is a little weird, but it is true that there is a place for them to rest.

They are not afraid of any black family or black shop.

That's why I followed boldly.

I just didn't expect to encounter such a weird witchcraft.

Li frowned, seeing that Lin Qingqing showed no signs of waking up.

Nodded too.

"That's perfect. Qingqing took Doctor Guan's medicine and she won't wake up for a while."

"I heard from them that someone will come to arrest us tomorrow morning. Let's wait here. Such behavior is worse than that of beasts. We must take them to the government to be punished!"

Li still couldn't get over the tragic fate of the young man and the woman.

Su Jiuyue didn't want to ask for punishment.

My mother's poison has not been cured yet, and I heard from that woman that there seems to be an organization behind this uncle.

Using living people to breed poisonous insects.

Being able to use the silencing Gu must be closely related to the ancient Miao kingdom!

She was worried that she couldn't find a way to find the so-called descendants of the ancient Miao Kingdom!

This is a clue! If we can find the descendants of the ancient Miao Kingdom, my mother will be saved!

Guan Ruoyu and Tuoba Xiong naturally had no objections.

"It's just our long-term plan. These people are good at using Gu, so we have to be careful and watch out."

"The poisonous insects are omnipresent and disgusting, and it's very easy to get infected."

Guan Ruoyu waved his Zhuge fan and gave serious instructions.

Su Jiuyue looked a little confused and looked at Guan Ruoyu seriously.

"Dr. Guan is indeed a white-robed saint. It is said that the ancient Miao state's Gu technique is very mysterious and has always been a headache for doctors."

"It seems that Doctor Guan knows a lot about witchcraft. This makes us feel relieved."

My mother was infected with the mother-child Gu, and Doctor Li had treated her many times but was never able to detect it. However, Doctor Guan saw through it immediately.

As for this silencing Gu, both my mother and Tuoba Xiong had never heard of it, but he was able to recognize it.

He seemed to really know a lot about witchcraft.

Doctor Guan smiled faintly.

"I have dealt with this poison in my early years and suffered losses, so naturally I have studied it in depth."

Guan Ruoyu was unwilling to say more about the details.

Su Jiuyue nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Guan Ruoyu took out a medicine bottle from his body and poured out five moon-white pills.

"This pill is called the Gu-avoiding Pill. Put the pill in a sachet and the Gu insects won't dare to get close to you."

"I knew I would need it when I got to Xiangshan, so I prepared it early."

Guan Ruoyu distributed the pills to several people as he spoke.

"Be sure to keep it carefully. Remember, from now on, you must never leave this pill."

"Well, Dr. Guan is still thoughtful."

Li took the pills, put them away for Lin Qingqing, and then put her own away as well.

Tuoba Xiong frowned.

"Carrying... a scent sachet?"

He is a big, rough guy! How can he have such a womanly thing?

Scented sachets are something only handsome men would wear, okay?

For example, that disgusting Helian Yi! He always carries a sachet with him!

Tuoba Xiong shuddered.

Seeing his disgusted look, Su Jiuyue shook her head helplessly.

She put the white pill in her hand into her small pouch and handed it to Tuoba Xiong.

"This purse is plain and not fancy. You can take it first. You can see it."

Su Jiuyue glanced at the wreckage on the ground.

"This place is very dangerous. Doctor Guan knows a little about this place, so we should listen to him."

Su Jiuyue took the anti-poison pill from Tuoba Xiong's hand and stuffed the purse into Tuoba Xiong's hand without saying a word.

No matter how shy Tuoba Xiong was, he didn't dare to joke with his life.

I had no choice but to put the purse in my arms and keep it carefully.

After the instructions were given, everyone found a room to rest.

After Li settled Lin Qingqing, she got up and went to look for Su Jiuyue.

Su Jiuyue sat at the door, looking at the stars, wondering what she was thinking.

Hearing the noise, he looked back alertly.

"Mother?"

Seeing that it was Li, Su Jiuyue relaxed her guard, smiled sweetly and called out softly.

Li smiled and sat next to Su Jiuyue.

He took Su Jiuyue into his arms and patted her shoulders gently.

"Yue'er... I'm sorry for what I have done to you..."

Su Jiuyue looked up from her arms.

"Why are you talking about this?"

Li smiled calmly.

"My Yue'er is smart and must know everything. In order to prevent mother and the family from worrying, we can only pretend that nothing happened."

"Yue'er... Mother is sorry for making you worry so much..."

Li hugged Su Jiuyue with heartache and spoke with a sigh.

When Su Jiuyue heard this, she knew that her mother had guessed something.

Now that you've guessed it, you might as well talk about it.

Su Jiuyue snuggled into Li's arms.

"Mother, no matter who you were before, you are only my mother, the one who gave birth to me and raised me."

"We are a family together, so we are not afraid of anyone! If anyone comes to harm you, I will kill him!"

Although Li couldn't see Su Jiuyue's expression, she knew that her daughter must be very serious!

Li patted Su Jiuyue gently.

"Mother knows that Yue'er is very capable!"

"When your father and I decided to stay together forever, mother had expected this day to come."

"We are a family, no one can separate us!"

Since it was tacitly understood, neither Li nor Su Jiuyue mentioned the past.

They just snuggled up to each other and talked about family matters.

Everything will be fine if you talk it out.

I don't know how long they talked, but Li suddenly changed his tone.

"You came to Xiangshan for your mother, right?"

"Mother...how many days are left?"

Li's tone was calm, as if he was asking about an ordinary matter.

Su Jiuyue’s body froze.

Li smiled faintly.

"Don't hide it from me. I know my body is already exhausted."

"Even if there is a drug that can give me a brief resurgence of my condition, it will probably be difficult to eradicate it completely."

If it were easy, why would Nan Huai use this mother-and-child Gu to control his subordinates?

Li gave a wry smile.

"Besides, if I was really fine, with Yue'er's filial piety, how could she let her mother, who had just passed through the gates of hell, set off immediately and travel thousands of miles with her?"

"Yue'er, there's no need to hide it from mother. Mother is not that fragile..."

Su Jiuyue said nothing, and finally took a deep breath.

"As expected of a talented spy from Nanhuai, mother, you are really smart..."

Tears rolled down Su Jiuyue's eyes.

"Mother, we will definitely find Mo Yuyan!"

"Mo Yuyan..."

Li smiled gently. This name sounded familiar to her.

Neither of them spoke anymore, just letting the night breeze blow by, each with their own thoughts.

Because of what happened last night, no one dared to sleep too deeply.

Before dawn the next day, there was a noise outside the house.

Su Jiuyue and the others were also ready.
