Gu is a very magical thing. Dong Huiying refined many Gu; some were poisonous, some could heal diseases, and others were bizarre, endowed with various functions. This Gu, resembling an earthworm, she named "Water Life Gu." First, because this Gu was water-based and would swell in water continuously, secondly because the Gu could secrete a miraculous liquid that could save lives. Even if one were to suffer from severe injuries, as long as this liquid was present, they would not die. However, the Gu was not omnipotent. It had a time limit; it could only prolong life for two days at most. During this process, the human body must have enough water for the Gu to grow in order to secrete the life-saving liquid. But once two days passed and the Water Life Gu had grown sufficiently robust, it could rupture the human body. The host’s ultimate fate was to die from explosive dissection as the once-saving liquid swiftly transformed into a deadly toxin after losing effectiveness. She thought that perhaps she was a bit heartless and ruthless. But if her suspicions were correct, these two women were people from The Outside, subordinates of Nu Woer, and what they had been searching for previously in the alley was most likely Liang Zhichen. Zhi Chen, what on earth has happened to you? Nevertheless, if these two were indeed searching for Liang Zhichen, she could be somewhat relieved for the moment. After all, from their words, it was clear that Zhi Chen must have escaped and was, at least for the present, safe. By dawn of the second day, the two women were at death’s door, tormented by the Water Life Gu. Dong Huiying’s eyes were red from staying up all night. Although last night the two women had whimpered as though they wanted to confess, she had purposely left them hanging for a long time. Now, she grabbed one of them, locked her in another room, and yanked out the rag stuffed in her mouth. Her expression was impassive as she asked, "Speak. If your answer satisfies me, perhaps I can spare your life." The woman had defiantly proclaimed last night that she could be killed but not humiliated; yet now, her complexion was pale green, and she looked at Dong Huiying with eyes full of fear. Moreover, her belly had swollen like a pot, almost transparent from the stretch. From time to time, it seemed as though something inside her belly was moving, and even through the skin, the shape of it could be seen. All of this was horrifying to the core. "I’ll speak, I’ll speak!!" Enduring the excruciating pain emanating from her abdomen, the woman confessed with an ashen face. She didn’t know much, but she revealed a few crucial pieces of information. Dong Huiying stuffed the woman’s mouth again and then went to interrogate the other one. The accounts of the two matched, and their combined testimony revealed the following points: They were people of Nu Woer. Nu Woer was lecherous in nature. Yi Yan of the Shenglong Hall was once a favored guest under Nu Woer’s canopy. Nu Woer had a favored husband and had come to the Golden Triangle with personal soldiers, falsely claiming it was because her husband was seriously ill. In truth, it was because Nu Woer herself had contracted a strange disease, which could only be treated with two kinds of herbs that Chen Ahhu, the head of Fierce Tiger Sect, possessed! There had been trouble in Shenglong Hall, Gold Respect had killed Yi Yan, and the forces Yi Yan left behind in Shenglong Hall were cleaned out by Gold Respect. Nu Woer ordered her men to attack Shenglong Hall’s stronghold, primarily to avenge Yi Yan. After all, Yi Yan was her, Nu Woer’s, man. But Gold Respect was cunning and managed to escape, covered by a number of Tie Slaves. Dong Huiying pondered whether this Gold Respect could be Zhi Chen.
