Song Qingshu, listening from the rooftop, did not know whether to laugh or cry. Lan Fenghuang was right—no matter how ravishing she was, once her clothes came off, who knew how many venomous snakes and poisonous insects she had hidden beneath them? Any man would be scared limp on the spot. Besides, Miao women were said to be devoted in love and exceptionally skilled at Gu poison. If a moment of pleasure got one afflicted with a Miao woman's Lover's Gu, forcing him to bid farewell to all his other beauties from then on, it simply was not worth it however he looked at it.
Wan Gui snarled, "Don't think I really don't dare touch you!"
Lan Fenghuang laughed coquettishly. "Then come on. Don't just talk big. Oh, and I forgot to tell you—aside from venomous snakes, poisonous spiders, scorpions, and the like, I also have Golden Silkworm Gu Poison and Green Silkworm Gu Poison on me. As half a martial artist yourself, surely you've heard of them?"
Not only Wan Gui, even Song Qingshu was dumbfounded. Good heavens, Golden Silkworm Gu Poison and Green Silkworm Gu Poison were poisons in the world of Jin novels no less deadly than the Golden Wave Poison Flower.
During the Dragon Boat Festival in Miao territory, hundreds of insects were gathered into an earthen jar and left to kill one another. A year later, when the jar was opened, only one golden, silkworm-like creature remained. After it was fed gold leaves for several months, it turned into a pile of golden droppings. Those droppings were Golden Silkworm Gu Poison, reputed to be the deadliest poison under heaven. Those afflicted felt as though countless insects were gnawing at every inch of their bodies, suffering agony beyond endurance—unable to live, yet unable to die.
