Xie Zhaosi shook his head vigorously.

How could he eat it! ?

"Crazy...you are a lunatic!!" Xie Zhaosi roared unbearably.

Tang Mingzhou smiled nonchalantly, "Crazy? Where is this? If you don't eat it, I'll bring the cook over and cut the meat from him to make dishes for you."

His voice was light and calm, as if he was talking about an unimportant matter.

Xie Zhaosi looked at the hands on the table, how could he be able to speak, his hands were shaking with fright.

Tears continued to overflow from the eye sockets, and there was a suppressed choking sound from the throat.

Tang Mingzhou leaned down, hugged his waist gently, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands, and said softly, "Don't cry, my heart hurts when you cry."

Xie Zhaosi shuddered at the disgusting look he pretended to be gentle at the moment, and he even forgot to cry. He was covered in cold hair and stared at Tang Mingzhou tensely.

Tang Mingzhou saw that he stopped crying, and smiled with satisfaction, "You know you can't eat, so I specially asked the kitchen to cook other things, which are all your favorite food. As long as you are obedient and don't make me angry, I will eat it." I will never treat you badly."

He clapped his hands, and the servant girls lined up outside entered the room slowly and orderly, put all the meals in their hands on the table, and took the person away.

Tang Mingzhou forcibly picked up Xie Zhaosi and pressed him on the stool, "Eat quickly."

Xie Zhaosi looked at the Dongpo elbow on the table and fell into deep thought. After a long time, he picked up the chopsticks tremblingly, and ate those attractive dishes without taste. Only the Dongpo elbow, which he used to love most, I didn't move a mouthful.

Later, Tang Mingzhou made sure that Xie Zhaosi would be obedient and stop making temper tantrums, so he left.

Xie Zhaosi watched helplessly as the door that separated heaven and hell was closed again, and there was no light in his eyes.

In the days that followed, Xie Zhaosi was really obedient and obedient, he stopped throwing temper tantrums, slept obediently, ate obediently, and did what Tang Mingzhou said, without resisting any more.

It's just that there was no smile on his face, and he never said a word, just like a puppet being pulled by a string.



Su Jin and Jian Yuheng searched for a long time but found no food, no weeds or animals, only a desolation.

It was damp and cold, and occasionally some poisonous insects crawled on the ground.

The two returned dejectedly.

Su Jin stroked the smooth cliff and said in despair, "We can't even climb up."

"It would be fine if there were daggers and other treasures that could cut iron like mud, but there is nothing here at the end of the day." Jian Yuheng said.

Su Jin couldn't help thinking of the Silver Frost Sword beside Gong Mochen.

If there is that thing, they can definitely get out.

The firewood that Jian Yuheng picked up burned out in less than three days. In the past few days, the two of them have been using water to satisfy their hunger. Although it doesn't have much effect, at least it can temporarily dissipate the hunger.

Three days later, the two were shivering with cold at night, and could only hug each other while sleeping, using their own bodies to keep each other warm. Jian Yuheng almost wrapped Su Jin in his arms, trying to keep the cold wind from blowing to him .

The originally handsome two are now yellow and thin, and they have long lost their original appearance.

Both of them were so hungry, even so, they didn't have any crooked thoughts about the other...

And Gong Mochen of the Prince Regent's Mansion was wandering around the mansion anxiously at the moment, feeling unstoppable ecstasy in his heart.

He found out the approximate whereabouts of Su Jin. The person who reported back to the house just now said that a family outside the city witnessed two men, one handsome and one old, who went to a remote forest together that night. !

The time and place basically coincide with the day when Su Jin disappeared, and the general description is similar to the characteristics of the two, so it is basically certain that it is Su Jin!

Now he is sending people to the forest, and if there is any news, he will come back and report to him immediately. I believe it is not far to find Su Jin.

As long as he found Su Jin, he would bring it back immediately, step by step in the hell, he didn't have that much time to spare!What happened this time almost scared him out of his wits, and he was almost as decadent as two years ago. He couldn't think about what to do if something happened to Su Jin all the time.

Now he can rest assured only if Su Jin stays by his side all the time!No matter what purpose Su Jin has!

After a while, one of the people he sent out to inspect came back in a panic.

Gong Mochen was overjoyed, and asked a series of questions, "But did you find someone? Did you bring them back? Was there any injury?"

The man shook his head, and said with an ugly face, "We didn't find shopkeeper Ji, but we found two corpses, which were beyond recognition. After confirmation, they seemed to be the corpses of Shangshu Xingbu and another man. There were signs of fighting around, and Ji was not found." The figure of the shopkeeper."

Gong Mochen gasped, "Corpse... Corpse?"

Seeing him like this, the man cautiously reminded him, "It's not the corpse of Shopkeeper Ji."

Of course Gong Mochen knew that the ministers of the Ministry of Punishment who left with Su Jin that day were all dead, so how could Su Jin's situation be any better! ?

His eyes darkened, and he almost fainted. The guard looked at him, hurried up to support him, and shouted anxiously, "My lord!"

Gong Mochen calmed down the turbulent emotions in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "This king also wants to go there together, and by the way, gather some more people to search carefully in the forest for this king!"

"Yes!"

After a while, the Prince Regent's Mansion came out in full force, and a large group of people in the capital hurried out of the city.

Tang Mingzhou stood at the gate of the Hou Mansion, looked at the people in black robes, and smiled inexplicably.

The guard brought everyone to the place where the corpses were found, and they were all shocked when they saw the two horrific corpses.

Liang Chen explained from the side, "When the body was found, the two people were still hugging each other, standing upright, looking like a living person, but after a closer look, they found that something was wrong, something inside was completely ripped out Empty, only two bodies left."

Now the two corpses were brought down by them, and they also said that the corpses were forcibly separated, but the stiff corpses were still in an embracing posture, the skin of the body was hanging weakly, it looked like two wide skin bags covering the skull, It was terrifying, the skin was not damaged at all, but the internal organs and flesh and blood were missing, how strange it looked.

"It can be seen from the clothes that one is the Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, but the identity of the other man is unknown. Judging from the skeleton, we can only know that this is not the shopkeeper Ji." Liang Chen continued.

Gong Mochen breathed a sigh of relief.

Luo Yunxiao, who came along with Liang Chen, had a pensive look on his face. He touched his chin and said, "The skin is not damaged but the flesh and blood are gone. If you don't damage the skin, you can only enter the body. It can only be from the ears, Enter the eyes, nose, and mouth, and then eat the flesh little by little. Only worms can do this. If this effect can be achieved overnight, there must be many worms, and they must obey orders. It's a Gu worm, obey the orders of the Gu refiner."

"Someone deliberately targeted them." Gong Mochen narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice was already tinged with killing intent.

That being the case, the situation of Su Jin must not be optimistic.

"It should be like this. I once heard from a friend that there is a kind of Gu insect that eats human flesh and blood for a living. This kind of Gu insect is called Chongdou Gu. It is the same size as a small bean. A poisonous insect named silk butterfly appeared together. After the bean-filling Gu grows up, it can be used to feed other Gu insects so that other Gu insects can get twice the result with half the effort. It can be used as feed or as a weapon, but this kind of Gu insect is not easy to control , may kill the master at any time." Luo Yunxiao continued to explain.

This is what he heard from the old man in the village, but these two things are from Fenglin's previous dynasty. It is said that the queen of the former dynasty loved Gu insects very much. She made bean-filled Gu and silk butterflies to help her raise Gu. Gadgets.

Back then, Empress Kangyuan surrounded her with silk butterflies, filled with bean gu to pave the way for her, and her life was unimpeded.

In the end, she kicked her husband out of the dragon chair and took over the power by herself. Several ministers who opposed the court were also tortured to death by this method. In the end, no one dared to speak. Her methods were too cruel and tough. , aroused public anger, water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it. In the end, the empress was overthrown, and a new dynasty appeared in history.

These things hadn't appeared for hundreds of years, and now they suddenly appeared in this world, so he had to think of Queen Kang Yuan who was respected by Gu back then, and he couldn't help thinking of the previous dynasty.

Gong Mochen didn't think about it at all, now his mind is full of someone trying to target Su Jin, and Su Jin is in danger.

There is no time to care about what is going on or not.

Suddenly a person came over and hurriedly reported, "My lord, I found a burnt fire pocket in one place, and there are still some burnt things and a lot of footprints around!"

Gong Mochen was startled, and hurriedly said, "Lead the way quickly!"

"Please come with me."

The man didn't dare to delay for a moment, and found there by relying on his own memory.

Gong Mochen looked at the somewhat pitch-black place that had been burned by the fire, and hurried forward, bent down, twisted the few pieces of black slag with his hands, and looked at them carefully.

Although it was scorched, it should be a black bug that could be vaguely seen before?

It seems that Luo Yunxiao's guess before is true.

He glanced inadvertently, and saw a few white debris on the side, and there were some beside the two corpses just now, because he didn't pay much attention to the corpses, and now he realized something was wrong after thinking about it.

He stood up and looked around. Not far from the fire was a pile of messy footprints. He couldn't help but imagine that that night, a group of people stared at the unarmed Su Jin. How scary.

It was because he didn't bring Su Jin back in time that Su Jin encountered such danger...

He couldn't help murmuring in a daze, "Ajin... where are you, tell me quickly..."
