The Saintess brought Emissary Lu back to the sleeping hall of the Holy Maiden Temple.
The three trusted emissaries beside her, Emissary Lin, had been injured in the Qionghua Hall and had been recuperating in bed. Emissary Lu was in charge of the common affairs of the Holy Maiden Temple, and she was not as steady as Emissary Loo, so she only brought Minister Loo along.
The Saintess stood in front of the quiet and dark window and gave Emissary Loo a look. Emissary Lu knew what the Saintess wanted to do next.
She dismissed the disciples in the sleeping hall and gently closed the door. She lit two dim oil lamps and waited respectfully at the side.
The Saintess pressed the mechanism on the windowsill, and the wall beside her slowly moved, revealing a dark secret room.
“Take it out.’
The Saintess instructed calmly.
“Yes.”
Emissary Loo walked in and took out a palm-sized jade bowl.
She presented it to the Saintess with both hands.
The Saintess removed the lid of the bowl. Inside was a small snow-white Gu worm.
The Saintess took out the dagger at her waist, cut her finger, and dripped a few drops of warm blood into the bowl.
There was never only one way to control puppets. Every puppet expert had actually been poisoned. This was just in case they lost control.
With the improvement of the medicine and her control methods, there were rarely any puppets that she had lost control of.
Wei Xu was an exception.
Now, the Saintess wanted to use this mother Gu to summon the child Gu in Wei Xu’s body.
The reason why she did not try this method previously was that this method would consume a certain amount of energy for the person who planted the Gu.
Not only did the Saintess have to raise it with blood, but she also had to expend a large amount of internal strength.
In addition, the mother Gu would also emit a powerful poison.
Emissary Loo’s face began to turn pale.
The Saintess sealed her acupoints with two fingers and gave her a poisonous pill.
“Thank you for the medicine, Saintess.”
Emissary Lu bowed.
She felt better.
The Saintess said seriously, “The poisonous pill only has an efficacy period of six hours. If we can’t recall Wei Xu before that, we have to stop the Gu. Otherwise, both of us will be poisoned to death.”
Emissary Loo’s expression changed. “Then if…”
The Saintess said calmly, “Wei Xu’s situation is the same as ours. If he doesn’t return within six hours, he will die from the poison.”
After the child Gu sensed the summoning of the mother Gu, it would control Wei Xu to return to the mother Gu. At the same time, it would release a large amount of poison.
Wei Xu did not have any anti-poison pills. He would only be more anxious than them.
Wei Ting sent Su Xiaoxiao home.
Just as she arrived at the Cheng family’s door, Su Xiaoxiao woke up.
She opened her eyes and lay in Wei Ting’s arms, looking straight at him. “Did you secretly kiss me just now?” Wei Ting had a cold expression. “No.” Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes.
Wei Ting said, “We’re here. You should go in.”
Su Xiaoxiao wanted to argue with him, but she suddenly felt something in the pharmacy.
This was the first time she had such a feeling after owning the pharmacy. fгeewebnovёl.com
Was it an illusion, or had her relationship with the pharmacy deepened?
She had to confirm it quickly.
“I’ll let you off first!”
Su Xiaoxiao got out of the carriage.
Wei Ting heaved a sigh of relief.
Su Xiaoxiao lifted the curtain. “You kissed me secretly!”
Wei Ting recovered in a second. “No.”
Forget it, she would enter the pharmacy first and get it back with interest next time.
Su Xiaoxiao returned to Cheng Sang’s courtyard.
Cheng Sang and the three children were asleep, and Uncle Quan and Yuchi Xiu were playing chess in the courtyard.
The corners of Su Xiaoxiao’s mouth twitched.
Yuchi Xiu chuckled. “You didn’t expect me to be so elegant in the mortal world, right?”
Su Xiaoxiao punched Yuchi Xiu’s head, rendering him speechless.
