Chapter 78 Planting Love Gu
"What are these people up to?" Mu Zhiyuan continued to lurk outside the tea room.
Xue Jinlan handed the flower Gu in his hand to Miao Xian. He crushed the flower into pieces and put it in a wooden box he carried with him. He began to mutter something to it. Xue Jinlan stepped forward and helped Nalan Jue into his arms.
Nalan Jue raised his eyes and looked at the ceremony of the three people in front of him, and struggled to say three words: "Mu Zhiyuan..."
Seeing that Nalan Jue was in bad condition, Mu Zhiyuan broke in through the door and fought with Miao Xian and Mrs. Tian.
Xue Jinlan held Nalan Jue tightly in her arms and said tremblingly: "It's okay, Mr. Nalan is okay!"
Nalan Jue gradually fainted.
Mrs. Tian took out a thin bamboo whistle from her arms and blew the hidden weapon at Mu Zhiyuan. Mu Zhiyuan turned over to dodge, pushed Xue Jinlan away, and took Nalan Jue away.
Xue Jinlan collapsed to the ground and shouted: "Master Nalan..."
Miao Xian blocked Mrs. Tian who was about to chase, and knocked Xue Jinlan unconscious with one palm.
After leaving Bazhen Tower, Mu Zhiyuan first gave Nalan Jue the antidote left by Mo Xia and took him to find Dr. Zhang.
After diagnosing the pulse, Doctor Zhang said: "Mr. Nalan, you just inhaled the cartilage powder by mistake. The antidote you just took has detoxified you."
Nalan Jue had some feeling in his limbs. He said to Mu Zhiyuan, "Prince Mu, why are you following me?"
"It was your maid Yan'er who informed me and Shu Xi that she was worried about your addiction to Bazhenlou food. Ah Shu asked me to investigate."
"Addictive food?" Doctor Zhang and Nalan Jue said in unison.
After checking his pulse again, Doctor Zhang asked, Mr. Nalan, do you have food from Bazhenlou?
"I didn't bring it with me. But now that I think about it, I have eaten the eight main dishes of Bazhenlou every day recently." Nalan Jue recalled.
Doctor Zhang said: "I heard that in order to attract diners, some unscrupulous restaurants will add the shell of Soul-Destroying Flower to the food they sell, which is addictive. Mr. Nalan probably eats this kind of thing, so he has been eating it recently. I want to go to Bazhenlou to eat every day.”
"Doctor Zhang, am I okay now?" Nalan Jue struggled to stand up.
"Master Nalan, as long as you don't go to Bazhenlou for meals recently, you will be cured without treatment."
Mu Zhiyuan supported Nalan Jue and said, "Don't be brave. You have to thank your maid Yan'er. I will send you back to your house to rest now. I will take care of the matter in Bazhen Tower."
After settling Nalan Jue, Mu Zhiyuan returned to Liuxiang Snacks first.
Mao Xi stepped forward and asked, "Brother Mu, is there really a problem with the food in the Eight Immortals Tower?"
Mu Zhiyuan took a sip of tea and told everyone everything about today.
"It turns out that shopkeeper Miao put medicinal powder in Mr. Nalan's food." Shui Xi was not surprised. She had read the news before traveling through time and knew that some stores would randomly put additives in food to make people addicted. I thought it existed in ancient times.
"Fortunately, Nalan Jue is fine now. However, I saw a woman at the scene. I wonder if she is related to this matter." Mu Zhiyuan stood up and prepared to go to Bazhen Tower again.
Bazhen Building, in the tea room of shopkeeper Miao.
The room was empty. Mu Zhiyuan checked in the restaurant and found that shopkeeper Miao and his two wives had disappeared, leaving only a chef and a few waiters.
He asked the servants in his house to keep an eye on the scene in the teahouse and went to the Yamen alone to report the incident.
Xue Jinlan's maid saw that the lady was missing and was panicking in the Bazhen Building. When she saw Mu Zhiyuan, who seemed to be on duty, she knelt down in front of him at the door of the restaurant, crying that the lady was missing and begging Mu Zhiyuan to help find her.
Mu Zhiyuan helped the maid up and took her to the Yamen together.
After the county magistrate Zhou Rusheng listened to the maid's account of the cause and effect, he immediately sent his yamen to seal the Bazhen Tower, and also asked Xue Jinlan's father to be called to the yamen to inform him of his daughter's disappearance.
“Mr.
Mr. Xue knelt on the ground and cried: "My little girl is young and confused. She must have been bewitched by the Miao people and her mind was confused. Now my little girl's whereabouts are unknown. Please ask the magistrate to save her!"
Mr. Xue was very young and had a daughter at an old age. He usually doted on Xue Jinlan the most. Now that his daughter was taken away, he was at a loss.
In a cave in the cliff of Miaoling, Xue Jinlan gradually woke up.
As soon as she woke up, she chanted: "Nalan...Master Nalan..."
"Pah!" Miao Xian slapped Xue Jinlan on the face.
Xue Jinlan finally woke up and was about to resist when she found that her limbs were tied with iron chains and tied to a pillar.
"Master Miao! Where is my Mr. Nalan, has the love poison been planted? Why did you bring me here!" Xue Jinlan cried incoherently.
"Pah!" Miao Xian slapped him again, touched his moustache and said angrily: "You still think about your Mr. Nalan, is he so good? Why don't you become my third wife."
"There is no love Gu! You did not plant love Gu for Mr. Nalan. Everything was a lie to me! It turns out that I am the target!" Xue Jinlan finally stopped being in love and her brain circuit became clearer.
Mrs. Lan stepped forward and touched Xue Jinlan's face and said: "What a lovely girl, you finally understand. Do you think the love poison can be planted just by making a wish on a flower?"
After saying that, she took out a small scimitar, made a slight cut on Xue Jinlan's heart, opened the wooden box she carried with her, and fed the Gu insects in the box with her blood.
Xue Jinlan saw a box of Gu worms, with a look of fear on his face, and turned around and said, "What is this? What is this?"
After feeding the Gu worms, Mrs. Lan said to Xue Jinlan: "This is the love Gu you want. It requires the hard work of both the person who created the poison and the one who was planted the poison. It can only be developed after feeding it for seven or forty-nine days. Once the seed is planted, the person who was poisoned will only love the person who planted the poison."
Mrs. Lan handed the box to Miao Xian. Miao Xian dropped some of his own blood into the box and smiled at Xue Jinlan: "Wouldn't it be better to follow me? The mountains and rivers here are good and the people are nurturing. I can let you be mine." Miao Xian’s third beautiful wife.”
"No! No, Master Miao, I will give you whatever you want. My father is a wealthy businessman in Kaitang County. I can give you as much gold as you want."
"I wanted your money at first, but I think it's more cost-effective to ask you for it. If such an infatuated woman only falls in love with me... hahaha!"
Miao Xian's laughter echoed in the cave.
Inside Nalanjue Mansion.
Master Xue came to the house with gifts and gold to apologize, and asked Nalan Jue to forgive Xue Jinlan for what he had done.
"Mr. Nalan, I am usually too arrogant about my daughter. I never thought that she would do such a thing to you. I will use these small gifts to make amends for you!"
"Mr. Xue, I am not injured. Do you have anything else to do when you are here today?"
"Mr. Nalan, you have many connections. I hope you can help send people to the Miao Territory to find the little girl. Miao Xian is the first person to poison the Miao Territory. I am worried that it will be detrimental to the little girl."
Seeing an old man in his seventies kneeling down for him, Nalan Jue couldn't bear it. He helped Mr. Xue up and said, "Master Xue, please go back first. The government will look for this matter. I also have some acquaintances in Miaojiang. If there is any I will send someone to inform you of the news.”
