"But Miss, didn't you say that the effect of the medicine would only last for half a year? What if Ning Qiu gave herself away after half a year? Wouldn't all the previous efforts be in vain? "
Lin Mengya nodded. Indeed, the medicine she made could only last for half a year at most.
But if Xiaoyu could completely control the Gu King within half a year …
At that time, all the Gu in the Pool of Ten Thousand Gu would listen to Xiaoyu's command.
Ning Qiu, the Gu Queen, could be the Gu Queen as long as she wanted.
"Therefore, I must research this thing before Xiao Yu enters the Ten Thousand Gu Pool. Baisu, it's like your martial arts. No matter how sharp your sword is, if your martial arts are not strong enough and your moves are not powerful enough, no matter how powerful the magic weapon is, it will be like a pile of copper and iron in your hands. "
Lin Mengya's eyes drifted to the distance unconsciously. What she could do was limited, but Xiaoyu's potential was infinite.
Her blood could help Xiaoyu temporarily subdue the Gu King, but it was not a long-term solution.
Madam Jingrou said that the Gu King was extremely special.
Not to mention that it could freely choose its master, even if it could control a large number of Lieyun people, it was enough to show that it was not simple.
In fact, Lin Mengya had also studied before and found that strictly speaking, these Gu Kings in Lieyun were not animals or plants, but they were indeed creatures with a very special life form.
Based on her modern medical analysis, the composition of these so-called Gu Kings was more of a special poison that could be controlled by people.
This poison was very special, and its source was nowhere to be found. How it was produced and how it was produced were all unsolved mysteries for Lin Mengya.
However, this poison could reproduce through the human body from generation to generation.
If it was not stimulated by a special method, these poisons might lurk forever without any danger to the human body and would not be noticed by people.
But once stimulated, the poison would take effect in various ways.
For the people of Lieyun, the Gu King was like a master switch.
As long as it was in someone's hands, it was equivalent to controlling their lives.
At the same time, Madam Jingrou also said that only people with royal blood were qualified to inherit the Gu King.
Otherwise, geniuses like Xin Li could only get a Child Gu in the end.
Therefore, if Xiaoyu wanted to ascend the throne smoothly, it was a simple and violent method to control the gu king.
As for how to comfort people in the future, she believed that Wanyan Lie and the others would be more skilled than her.
However, she was more curious about one thing.
What kind of people were the ancestors of the Lieyun people? How could they be willing to let their descendants be controlled by others forever?
"You're right, Miss. However, Miss shouldn't be so engrossed in it. You still have to take care of yourself."
Baisu understood all of Lin Mengya's words and knew how urgent the current situation was.
The only thing she could do was to take good care of the Young Miss and do everything the Young Miss ordered.
"Yes, I know what I'm doing. Go and help Qinghu. Don't worry about me. "
She took a sip of the hot tea served by Baisu and felt that she had rested enough. She got up again and returned to her temporary room.
On the table and on the floor, there were many medicinal herbs arranged in a certain order.
Among them, there were some extremely rare species, but they were all highly toxic.
If an ordinary person were to be in such a situation, they would already be feeling dizzy and light-headed. Those who were physically weak might even show signs of mild poisoning.
But for Lin Mengya, these things were the same as flowers and plants on the roadside.
Lin Mengya frowned again as she fiddled with those poisons with her slender hands.
If she wanted to subdue the gu king, she must wait for it to relax. The effect would be the best.
What should she do to make the poison that even the gu king couldn't stand?
It was impossible to simply pile them up. It seemed that she had to make a big fuss about the various medicinal properties.
While studying, she watched the process of Qinghu training Ning Qiu. Time passed very quickly.
After a few days of galloping out of the first place, the four of them all had different degrees of fatigue, but they had gained a lot.
Under Qinghu's training, Ning Qiu's noble and cold temperament became more and more obvious.
In particular, one of her eyes was very similar to Madam Jingrou's.
In fact, Ning Qiu stayed with Madam day and night, so she could naturally be infected with Madam's temperament.
But in the past, Ning Qiu always looked up to Madam. She never thought that one day she would have the opportunity to inherit Madam's former position.
In a hurry, ten out of fifteen days had passed.
Today, they finally arrived at Yushan Commandery, where the Xin family's nest was located.
As soon as they entered Yushan Commandery, Lin Mengya and her companions clearly felt that the atmosphere was different.
In Wang City, the common people could still live and work in peace and contentment.
However, in this place, she could clearly sense that everyone was tense.
Although there were people coming and going on the street, it was not as lively as the Outer King City.
From the moment they entered, many gazes seemed to have landed on them.
In order not to arouse suspicion, they all changed their clothes and dressed like the local people.
But in this way, they still attracted a lot of attention, which surprised Lin Mengya.
"Girl, something is wrong here."
In the crowd, Baisu protected Ning Qiu, and Qinghu naturally stood beside Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya nodded and talked with Qinghu in a low voice.
"I think so too. Don't you think that the people here are a little too vigilant and cautious? Even if we are new faces, there is no need to watch us like this, right? "
Lin Mengya felt the same as Qinghu.
So far, she had roughly felt that there were about four or five groups of people looking at them.
Those people were hiding in the crowd, either openly or secretly.
Although they did not mean any harm, Lin Mengya felt a little unhappy.
"Something big must have happened here. I think it must have something to do with the disappearance of the Xin family."
Qinghu's long eyes moved slightly, and he had a panoramic view of the surroundings.
His cold eyes pretended to sweep across a few places casually. Nothing could escape his eyes.
"It's possible. After all, this is the nest of the Xin family. If something strange happened here, I'm afraid that the Xin family will be even more frightened. Don't worry about them. Let's go. "
Lin Mengya and the others pretended that they did not feel those people watching them. They walked to the place where they agreed to meet Xiaoyu.
Three days ago, Xiaoyu, who shone in the Guluo Gathering, had arrived in Yushan County ahead of time.
As the winner of the Guluo Gathering, according to the rules, Xiaoyu must enter the Pool of Ten Thousand Gu and awaken the Gu King with her own blood.
But because of the absence of the Gu Lady, the High Priest of the Xin family, with the full cooperation of the clansmen, barely awakened the Gu King with the royal blood in the previous Guluo Gatherings.
Now they were ready, and Xiaoyu also had to enter the Pool of Ten Thousand Gu to completely avoid being harmed by those people.
Ning Qiu, the Gu Lady, was the key to whether Xiaoyu could successfully enter the Pool of Ten Thousand Gu.
The place they agreed to meet was an inn that Wanyan Lie secretly bought in Yushan County.
From the outside, it didn't look any different from other inns.
But the innkeeper and the waiters were all Wanyan Lie's confidants.
Along the way, Xiaoyu relied on a lot of means to get away and arrive at Yushan County safely.
Although the Xin family had to assume the responsibility of protecting the prince here.
But they could not trust anyone except themselves.
Lin Mengya and her companions heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the inn called Qingling.
"Guests are here. Please come in."
The waiters standing at the door had already seen them.
They immediately greeted them respectfully and humbly. Especially when they saw Baisu, a light flashed in their eyes.
"Well, is anyone waiting for us?"
Baisu knew Wanyan Lie's style of doing things best. If it was not safe here, he would inform them immediately.
She had received a letter from the Young Lord yesterday, saying that everything was as usual here.
"Yes, distinguished guests are waiting for you on the second floor."
The waiters lowered their voice and said. Baisu nodded and exchanged a look with Lin Mengya, who was behind her, before following the waiters into the Qingling Inn.
There were not many people inside, and they all looked like ordinary people.
But Lin Mengya was keenly aware that from the moment they entered the door, several eyes, like X-rays, swept over them.
Her body slightly tensed in an instant. Fortunately, those eyes only swept over them and then looked away, without any malice.
Lin Mengya's body gradually calmed down.
It seemed that this place was not peaceful. Otherwise, Wanyan Lie would not have arranged so many people to protect them at all times.
They followed the waiters up to the second floor and pushed open the innermost door. An extremely elegant and spacious room appeared in front of them.
A thin figure was sitting at the side of the brown wooden table.
In front of him was a cup of tea.
"Young Master, they are here."
The waiters' voice had already attracted the attention of the person sitting at the table.
The person was dressed in a greenish-gray robe. His gray hair was tied up in a bun, and he wore a jade crown of auspicious beasts.
Baisu automatically stepped aside and Lin Mengya walked up to him.
Before she could say anything, an embrace with the fragrance of tea hugged her tightly.
"I missed you so much."
There was a trace of joy in her tiredness.
Looking at the boy, who was almost as tall as her and even seemed to be slightly taller than her, Lin Mengya slightly raised the corner of her mouth.
Her small hand gently smoothed out the wrinkles on the boy's clothes, but in the next second, her small hand twisted the boy's ear fiercely.
