After thinking about it for a long time, I still couldn't come up with a definite answer.
Chu Yan went to find Jian Anran again.
I originally thought that Jian Anran might be resting, but I saw Jian Anran sitting at the table, writing and drawing something with a pen in her hand.
"You're back?"
Hearing the noise, Jian Anran put down the pen in her hand and looked up at Chu Yan: "How is it? Did you find anything else?"
"I asked the servant, and she said there's nothing strange about Mom these days."
Chu Yan's face was cold and worried: "Do you think she is possessed by evil spirits now?"
"Bewitched……"
Jian Anran shook her head thoughtfully: "I don't think so. Before we left, I specially strengthened the defense of my home so that no evil spirit could invade. And I also carefully observed our mother's condition for a long time today.
, there is no evil spirit in her body."
"If it is possessed by evil spirits, it is basically impossible."
Hearing this conclusion, Chu Yan's brows furrowed even more tightly.
The man sat next to Jian Anran very naturally and asked: "Aside from evil spirits, is there anything else that can cause a sudden change in a person's temperament?"
Jian Anran pursed her lips, tapping her fingers on the table subconsciously, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "I have an idea!"
She pulled out a yellowed and old book from the small gourd.
Jian Anran flipped through it very skillfully, and finally stopped at one of the pages: "You see, in addition to evil spirits, voodoo insects can also change people's temperaments, and voodoo insects can even control the actions or thinking of the parasitized person.
.”
"I don't usually use Gu, so I didn't think of this possibility for a while."
Now that she had the direction of the investigation, Jian Anran couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She said with a smile: "Thanks to you for reminding me!"
"You mean, mom might have been poisoned?"
Chu Yan asked doubtfully.
This kind of thing has never appeared in his world before, and he always thought that it was just a rumor.
I didn't expect it to happen.
"Don't think that Gu insects are mysterious. The Qiu Qiu we met at the Taoist Association before is a Gu master."
Jian Anran handed the book to Chu Yan and let him read it for himself: "Gu worms are very magical creatures. If they are controlled by kind and upright people, they can save lives, but if the controller has evil intentions, the parasite may be
It would be dangerous.”
The two looked at each other and understood each other's meaning.
"If it's really a poisonous insect, it's almost invisible from the outside, so I need to check Mom's body."
As Jian Anran spoke, she began to prepare things that might be used later.
"Mom said just now that she went upstairs to rest. This is also an opportunity."
"That's right, let's go over and check it secretly."
The two hit it off immediately.
After Chu Yan sent away the servant, the two of them walked quietly to the door of Jiang Yuqiu and Chu Xingguo's room.
Before I could open the door, I heard a sharp voice: "What are you doing sneakily standing at the door of the room?! Are you trying to do something bad?!"
Chu Xingguo, who was supposed to be outside, came back at some point and was staring at the two of them angrily!
For a moment, Chu Yan felt as if he was not a member of this family, but a thief.
"Dad's situation is also very wrong."
Jian Anran said quickly in a low voice: "He is yelling so loudly now, maybe he will wake mom up."
"I see."
Chu Yan responded, took two steps forward, and walked in front of Chu Xingguo: "Dad, why are you back?"
"If I don't come back, will you continue to steal things?"
Chu Xingguo snorted coldly and was about to reprimand Jian Anran when Chu Yan directly covered his mouth!
"Well!"
Chu Xingguo's eyes widened in an instant, and just as he was about to struggle, Jian Anran put a holding charm directly on his forehead.
"There's nothing we can do about it, dad, just bear with it for the time being!"
Jian Anran spoke helplessly.
As Chu Yan dragged Chu Xingguo, Jian Anran began to conduct a detailed and comprehensive inspection of Chu Xingguo.
"Found it, look here."
Jian Anran opened Chu Xingguo's collar, revealing a small red spot on the back of the man's neck.
"One characteristic of people who have been poisoned is that the place where the poison enters will leave a small red dot. If you want to get the poison out, you have to come out from this place."
"Then let's get the Gu bug out first?"
Chu Yan asked immediately.
"Don't worry yet. There is a connection between the Gu worm and the Gu cultivator. If the Gu worm dies suddenly, the Gu cultivator will sense it. We don't know who the other party is yet, so we can't alert the snake."
Jian Anran shook her head. She thought for a moment and then said, "I'll ask the housekeeper to find two big roosters. We can lure the poisonous insects to another living creature. It should be fine."
Letting Chu Yan continue to support Chu Xingguo, Jian Anran asked the housekeeper for two live big roosters.
Upon hearing this request, the housekeeper was confused.
But since it was Jian Anran's request, he still complied.
Under the influence of the special spices prepared by Jian Anran, the poisonous insects crawled out of Chu Xingguo's body bit by bit.
It was a fleshy insect covered in blood.
Just after taking a look, Chu Yan felt uncomfortable all over, as if there were insects crawling all over his body.
He held his breath and watched helplessly as the voodoo crawled into the big rooster's body.
The big rooster crowed once and then immediately became sluggish.
As for Chu Xingguo, he fell into coma the moment the Gu insect left his body.
"Dad...are you okay?"
Chu Yan called Chu Xingguo twice, but there was no response.
"It's okay. After the Gu worm leaves the body, it will cause the parasitized person to be comatose for a while. It won't take long for him to wake up on his own. But after waking up, he should eat well and replenish his body."
Jian Anran shook her head, her eyes falling on the closed door.
Since Chu Xingguo has a bug on his body, Jiang Yuqiu must be inseparable.
The two of them opened the room door softly.
Jiang Yuqiu was lying on the bed sleeping soundly, which saved some trouble.
In the same manner, the poisonous insects were attracted out of Jiang Yuqiu's body and sent into the body of another rooster.
After doing all this, Jian Anran breathed a sigh of relief.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead and tied two charms on the rooster's legs.
"These two charms can hide the breath. The opponent will not notice that the Gu insect has changed its host in a short period of time."
"That's good."
The two waited in the room for a while, and Chu Xingguo woke up first.
Chu Yan took off the amulet from his forehead and asked with concern: "Dad, how do you feel now?"
"Why are you here? Aren't you on a business trip?"
Chu Xingguo looked at the two people who suddenly came home strangely and scratched his head: "I feel like I've been in a daze for the past two days. What's wrong with me?"
