Shen Tang shook his head and said it didn't matter, and said with relief: "This matter involves brothers and sisters. If it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be as sensible as Mr. Gu. How do you plan to deal with this matter?"
"I'm not afraid of Mr. Shen's jokes. Gu is now without a master and has no charter..." Gu Ren admitted his "incompetence" without hesitation. He looked at Qi Shan with hopeful eyes, "Mr. Qi knows this." , is there any good way to treat Thirteen? As long as Thirteen can get well, sir, I will respond to your requests."
Gu Ren's promise is quite heavy.
As long as he still wants to be famous, he will not destroy his own brand.
only--
Is there any way to pray for kindness?
The so-called method was conveyed by Gong Xiqiu Rang.
He said: "No killing."
Hearing this, Gu Ren smiled bitterly: "Forbidden to kill? Mr. Qi doesn't know something. Thirteen murders also have a last resort..."
This matter directly fell into an endless loop.
If there is no bloodshed, Shao Chong's madness will break out every once in a while. Even if he is locked up and forced to survive, the time interval between the next madness attacks will be shortened, more painful, and the degree of self-mutilation will be higher. Floor, can Gu Ren watch?
If you kill people and see blood, your desire for blood during an attack of madness will be greatly relieved. Although the attack is painful, it is better than ten thousand ants eating bones, and you can still be awake for a while after the madness is over. Gu Ren has adopted Shaochong for so many years, Every time when his madness was about to break out, he would either be released to kill a few bandits and death row prisoners, or they would capture some jackals, tigers and leopards and let him tear them apart for fun...
But the news brought by Shen Tang blocked this road.
Shaochong's madness is not a strange disease but caused by a poisonous insect.
Killing is death, not killing is death.
Gu Renzhen was as big as the other two, but he still felt a little lucky in his heart: "Mr. Qi, is there any way to lure out the Gu? As long as we take it out, Shisanbu can get rid of it? No matter how high the cost, As long as people can live, that’s fine!”
Shen Tang asked: "How much does it cost?"
Gu Ren said firmly: "Yes, what a price! Whether it is wealth, fame, fortune or talent, as long as Ren can afford it, it will be fine! He is not afraid of Shen Langjun's jokes. Thirteen is not only Gu's sworn brother, but also It’s half-child, which has a different meaning.”
Shen Tang: "What if Shaochong, the young general, becomes a useless person?"
This question caught Gu Ren off guard.
He was stunned, and after a while he realized that Gu Ren, who always had a smile and no airs of superiority, was rarely angry, but he still knew how to restrain it with reason. His face turned red, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed. He endured intense embarrassment.
He looked unhappy: "Master Shen, what are you talking about? Gu's reputation abroad is not very good, and he is always criticized privately by others for being 'wife-killing' and 'hypocritical'. Ask yourself, he is not a good person, nor is he a good person. I never dare to think of myself as a good person, but I am definitely not a heinous person, let alone sell my brothers to gain glory, wealth, fame and wealth!"
It seems that I still feel a little aggrieved.
"If the total loss of Thirteen's strength can buy him stability for the rest of his life, so that he will no longer suffer from Gu worm madness, as long as Gu is alive for one day, he will never be wronged for one day!"
After Gu Ren finished venting his emotions, Shen Tang smiled and said: "Don't be angry, Mr. Gu, Tang didn't mean that..."
Seeing that Gu Ren's expression had not improved, she changed the subject: "I just asked you that because in addition to the 'forbidden killing' road, the other road is more difficult and dangerous. There is a possibility of failing at every turn and becoming a useless person. You must first Ask clearly..."
Gu Ren's eyes lit up.
He hurriedly asked: "What method?"
Shen Tang slowly said: "Once this kind of poisonous insect is planted, unless it bursts out of its belly, there is no second way to get rid of the poisonous insect. However, there is not a solution. Gu Gong can find a powerful person. A powerful brave warrior or a literary scholar can also gather the power of several people to help the young general Shaochong suppress and control the Gu insects, but..."
The ancients would have been anxious to death.
"Just what?"
Shen Tang: “It’s just treating the symptoms but not the root cause.”
Gu Ren, who had countless things to say at the moment: "..."
After talking for a long time, I talked about loneliness???
Gu Ren also knew that he was being tempted, but he had to cooperate with Shen Tang. He bowed and said patiently: "How can we cure the root cause?"
Shen Tang also asked Gong Xiqiu this question.
Gong Xiqiu's answer was very simple and crude.
[It’s not difficult, Mama, think about it, how to raise voodoos? Put a bunch of voodoos together and let them fight each other until only one dies! It’s the same with people, whoever is stronger will survive. Since the host is the victim of the voodoos The parasitic host is also the humanoid 'gu insect' that competes with the poisonous insect. Kill it! If it is strong enough to transform the poisonous insect and swallow it, the host will become the new 'vood mother'!】
Shen Tang felt unreliable: [Is this method feasible? 】
She always felt that something was a little evil.
Gong Xiqiu smiled and said: [Some people have succeeded, but this method also has disadvantages, Mama should think carefully before telling Gu Ren.]
Shen Tang asked: [What are the disadvantages?]
You still have to ask clearly.
Otherwise, if something happens later, it won't be her fault?
Gongxi Qiu suddenly became serious, looked at Shen Tang solemnly and said: [Once successful, this Shaochong will become a powerful enemy that even I am wary of. You are creating a serious problem for yourself! In this case, does Mama still want him alive? It’s better to watch him die.]
Shen Tang:【A serious problem in your heart?】
Gong Xiqiu sighed and asked with a smile: "Once he truly becomes the 'Gu King', the starting point will be the fourteenth level. Within a few years, it is very likely that he will break through to the sixteenth level, or even the seventeenth level." The commander of the chariot...how can he not be a serious problem?]
In the northwest of the continent where there are many small countries, a brave warrior with such powerful strength may even decide the world.
Shen Tang:【……】
She looked at Gong Xiqiu with complicated eyes.
Gong Xiqiu also looked at him calmly.
[At first I thought you were an honest and frank person, but I didn’t expect you to be evil-minded and betray my trust.]
I thought that brave warriors would be simpler.
Is Gong Xiqiu testing himself?
But he said: [Why am I not reminding you? 】
Shen Tang frowned, suspecting that Gong Xiqiu was humiliating his IQ: [... He almost killed me during the day, my body is still hurting, and then you come to remind me at night? ]
If you tell ghosts this, they won’t believe it either.
However, since it was Gong Xiqiu who said that his little friend was a soul confidant in the realm of music, she believed it for the time being.
Can--
[You told me so casually, which shows that you don’t really want Shao Chong to save the life of the little general... I am now very poor. In addition to starving to death, my pocket is cleaner than my face. Rather than saying that I am a tiger, Shao Chong is a threat to you. Is it bigger?]
Gong Xiqiu is creating a strong enemy for himself.
Shen Tang didn't care.
【You don’t mind, what do I mind?】
Just say it.
Therefore, Shen Tang truthfully told Gu Ren how to "raise gu".
Qishan didn't speak until he left the camp.
"Lord, this matter is very inappropriate."
He will not stop Shen Tang from making decisions.
But it doesn't mean that I agree with Shen Tang's decision.
Gu Ren's reputation is so good. Each of his sworn brothers is capable, and there are countless disciples and ministers who serve him free of charge. Once he is promoted with less strength, and there is no fear of going crazy and dying suddenly, the battle of Xiaocheng is over. I don't know how many people came to seek refuge with him.
On the other hand, my protagonist was born with insufficient development.
The disadvantages come from being young and having little experience.
Shen Tang's voice changed from the usual smiley and relaxed tone, and was filled with some indescribable solemnity. She asked Qi Shan: "Who does Yuan Liang think is raising the gu? Is it the young general Shaochong? Is it Gu Ren? Or some unknown identity? The one who planted the poisonous insects when he was young?"
Qi Shan did not answer, and Shen Tang revealed the answer.
She said: "None of them!"
Then he said again: "It's Gong Xiqiu!"
As Shen Tang said before, when Shaochong grows up, Gu Ren gets the greatest help. The first person to be threatened will not be Shen Tang, nor the alliance leader Wu Xian, nor even the country leader Zheng Qiao, but Gong Xiqiu, who worked in the tent of King Sheng's rebels.
Most courageous warriors are absorbed by forces large and small.
This group is a standard pyramid.
The further you go up the less.
As long as Gu Ren didn't completely rebel against Zheng Qiao, when Zheng Qiao needed to mobilize troops to attack the rebels, Gu Ren would also have to step in. With such a trump card in his hand, Gu Ren dared to hide it?
Once the cards are played, who will be hit in the end?
Anyway, it won't fall on Shen Tang for a while.
She is only twelve now.
The northwestern part of the mainland is more chaotic than a pot of porridge.
It's hard to say whether a "chosen person" can be found to integrate the northwest before she reaches adulthood - what does Shen Tang have to worry about?
Shen Tang said: "Gong Xiqiu made this special trip, and it's impossible that he was really idle. It's hard to say whether he met us two by coincidence or if he did it intentionally. A strong man is as lonely as snow. There will be arrogance that ordinary people cannot understand..."
Qi Shan: "Creating an opponent for yourself and then killing it with your own hands? You are indeed very arrogant, but you are not afraid of death..."
Shen Tang smiled and said: "Are there any brave warriors who are afraid of death?"
Qishan: "..."
As far as he knew, there weren't many. In this era when the average age of the people was in their thirties, time was fleeting and life was short. Compared with certain pursuits, life was indeed so cheap that it was not worth mentioning.
Singing to your heart’s content and singing and acting at the same time is the most common thing nowadays.
"And -" Shen Tang paused, then turned to ask Qi Shan, "Does Yuan Liang know the true meaning of 'I have a friend'?"
"I have a friend?"
How does Qi Shan understand this joke?
"Suppose you have a friend who suddenly tells you one day - 'I have a friend who suddenly turned into a woman one day'. What do you think? When you say this, there is no doubt that the 'friend' in your friend's mouth is probably Your friend yourself."
The same goes for Gong Xiqiu.
It took Qi Shan a while to figure out Shen Tang's tongue-twisting words, and his expression became strange: "Is this friend the lord?"
Shen Tang: "..."
She looked at Qi Shan in surprise - Good guy, when did Qi Yuanliang go for vision correction surgery? He's not blind anymore!
Qishan: "My lord was injured during the day."
He added: "Lin Feng changed it."
Shen Tang: "...Who knows?"
Not many people actually know.
For now, I just pray to Chu Yao and Lin Feng.
He didn't even tell Kang Shi.
Firstly, Kang Shi was not in deep yet, so Qishan felt that he needed to observe it for a while. Secondly, this matter really challenged the common sense, so it was not necessary to have too many people know about it at the moment to avoid any accidents.
Qi Shan and Chu Yao's plan is to wait for Lin Feng to become a literary scholar, or to train a few more female literary scholars and brave warriors so that Shen Tang will not be "alone and helpless", or -
Shen Tang killed Gong Xiqiu with his own hands and stepped on his corpse to ascend to the throne.
In this world, strength always trumps gender.
Shen Tang: "Where is Gu Chi?"
Qi Shan smiled unceremoniously and said: "With his scribe's skills, coupled with the Lord's extremely active inner thoughts, Shan doesn't think he will be the last person to know."
Perhaps Gu Chi was the first among everyone to know.
Shen Tang: "..."
Qi Shan brought the topic back, and the slightly lively atmosphere became solemn again: "My lord, do you think Gong Xiqiu is also a victim of Gu disaster?"
"He said that someone had succeeded. I am more inclined to believe that this "someone" is him. Previously, he personally admitted that the genocide of his clan was related to the gu disaster. A small clan that lives in seclusion, even if the entire clan was killed by the scourge. , and no one will seek justice, right?”
Qishan's expression suddenly became subtle.
"My lord, have you misunderstood something?"
Shen Tang was surprised: "What did I misunderstand?"
Qishan smiled and shook his head: "Lord, do you think that is a small clan with little strength? It is true that they are reclusive, but their strength is not bad. A small clan that can live in seclusion peacefully and has not been disturbed by the outside world for more than two hundred years is not bad. How can it be possible with your child's abilities? However, it is not impossible that Gong Xiqiu was also bewitched..."
The possibility is still high.
But these are all their speculations and there is no evidence.
After Shen and Tang returned, Gu Renwu pondered for a long time until his sixth brother came looking for him after not seeing anyone for a long time.
"Brother?"
Gu Ren woke up with a start: "Sixth brother, you are here."
The sixth brother looked around and saw that the tea at the guest's seat on the table was already cold, which showed that Shen Tang had been away for a long time.
He asked: "What is eldest brother so obsessed with?"
Gu Ren said: "Master Shen just came over to tell me some news. I'm not sure, so please come and give me some advice."
The sixth brother listened attentively: "Big brother, it doesn't matter if you say it."
Gu Ren asked: "Have you ever heard of the Gu disaster in Wu Kingdom?"
"Brother, why are you bringing up this unlucky thing?" The sixth brother's reaction was beyond Gu Ren's expectation. Seeing Gu Ren's surprised look, the sixth brother asked, "But what did Master Shen come over and say?"
Gu Ren murmured: "Master Shen said that Thirteen's madness is not a strange disease, but caused by poisonous insects. Thirteen was poisoned by evildoers...Sixth Brother, do you think this statement is credible?"
The sixth brother frowned and thought carefully: "It's not impossible."
"Huh?"
The sixth brother said frankly: "The eldest brother also knows that the younger brother was once an imperial doctor in the Xin Dynasty. He was best at treating women and children. Later, he was convicted of the concubine's miscarriage. Fortunately, he saved his life, resigned and went into seclusion..."
Gu Ren nodded repeatedly.
Of course he knew this.
He got acquainted with his sixth brother because he was seeking medical treatment for Thirteen. At that time, he heard that there was a master of pediatrics living in seclusion nearby, so he rushed to the door with his young master. During the process of seeking medical treatment, he and his sixth brother got very close to each other, so he thought of making friends. It was a coincidence.
The sixth brother said: "Before I entered the medical office, the previous imperial physician was ordered to secretly study the Gu evil in the Wu Kingdom. It is said that he got something from the Geng Kingdom... I don't know what was finally found. I only know that one day , the imperial physician Ling suddenly disappeared... Outsiders say he was secretly executed, but I am sure he is still alive. Big brother, you have seen him before..."
