Capital City, a small courtyard somewhere
A man with an unattractive appearance was slumped feebly on Soft Couch.
He was the person behind the strange man who caused Jiang Zhizhou to place the pills that day.
If Yang Qing were here, he would definitely recognize that this person is very similar to Gao Zhanwen, one of the envoys of the Northern Liang mission.
But upon closer inspection, there are differences.
He is Gao Zhanwen's younger brother, Gao Zhanqi, who has never been revealed to the public.
Gao Zhanqi entered Western Chu with the Northern Liang mission, but except for Gao Zhanwen, no other person knew of his existence.
At this time, Gao Zhanqi was like a fish that had been stranded on the shore, gasping for air.
Someone next to him was looking at him seriously. "So, this operation failed?"
His eyes are obviously different from those of Western Chu. The bottom of his eyes are red, as if blood is coming from both eyes.
If anyone encounters it at night, they will be scared to death.
However, Lu Qian has never cared about his unique pair of eyes.
Because everyone who can see his eyes is already dead.
However, the man paralyzed on Soft Couch in front of him is an exception.
This Gao Zhanqi cannot be touched for the time being.
Gao Zhanqi, who was lying on Soft Couch, raised his eyelids with great difficulty, and then said, "I didn't expect that among these Capital City, there would be people who could recognize this Gu. If I was careless, I would..."
"Now is not the time for you to admit your carelessness. The success or failure of this matter depends on whether you and my master can carry out the next plan smoothly!"
"If I can't take back that Gu Insect, what will be the consequences?"
Hearing this, Gao Zhanqi's body stiffened suddenly, and his lips turned white and trembled slightly. "If Gu Insect cannot take it back, then in ten days, the Mother Insect parasitized in the body will bite back its owner."
"What? There is actually..."
The man standing suddenly changed his expression, and then he stretched out his hand and pinched the neck of the lying man. "Why didn't you say clearly before that there would be such a result?"
"Your Majesty, you want to move quickly and have obvious results, and you have to control it yourself. I originally explained the pros and cons, but..."
However, the master did not give him a chance to refuse, and he did not have the courage to refuse.
I thought this matter was a sure thing, but I didn't expect it would be like this.
"Since you are a poison-wielding person, you will definitely be able to come up with a solution."
Lu Qian looked at Gao Zhanqi very nonchalantly, with no warmth in his eyes.
"There is a way, but..."
"What can I do?"
"The first is to find the person who took away Gu Insect, and the second is to recall the Mother Gu Insect."
But no matter which method is used, there are huge risks.
In other words, no matter which solution is chosen, Gao Zhanqi is not very sure.
"You have one day to find the person who took the poison."
Lu Qian After thinking about it, he came up with a plan.
"You don't have to worry about not being able to leave. Someone will accompany you to find it."
Compared with getting Mother Gu Insect back, it is more convenient to let Gao Zhanqi go out to find Gu Insect.
But what kind of consequences this will bring to Gao Zhanwen is not within the scope of Lu Qian's consideration.
Gao Zhanqi closed his eyelids, he had no right to object.
After a while, Gao Zhanqi was placed in a comfortable and spacious sedan.
But for Gao Zhanqi, no matter how comfortable this sedan is, it is just a cage for him.
Moreover, it is very likely that once he leaves, he will not be able to come back.
However, he had no choice.
From the moment he was born in Gaofu, he had no choice.
It should be said that the fate of everyone in their Gao family has already been written.
And now, he is just being pushed forward according to the trajectory of fate.
On the other side, Jiang Zhizhou, after discussing Gu Insect with Yang Qing, wandered around the entire Capital City.
Originally, he didn't have much hope for this method, but when he came to a certain place in the city, he suddenly felt that the Gu Insect in the clay pot was moving.
Moving?
Jiang Zhizhou took out the jar and looked at it carefully, and sure enough, he saw that the insect, which had always been quiet, was spinning in a fixed direction.
This means that there is also Gu Insect nearby?
Jiang Zhizhou took the jar back into his arms and looked around, but found nothing unusual.
After thinking about it, he decided to take a closer look.
As soon as Jiang Zhizhou's figure moved, he rose up from the ground and soon disappeared.
Just as his figure disappeared, the sedan with Gao Zhanqi inside appeared in front of the alley.
"Get off the sedan."
Gao Zhanwen's voice is very soft.
However, the few people outside who were responsible for carrying the sedan quickly stopped and then gently lowered the sedan.
Gao Zhanqi stretched out his hand and opened the carriage curtain in front of him, his nose twitching slightly.
"Yes, it's the smell of insects."
Gao Zhanqi stretched his head out of the car. Here, it was just an ordinary Alley, surrounded by only a few dilapidated houses.
These houses had obviously not been inhabited for a long time, and there was a thick layer of dust both inside and outside.
However, that smell that only Gao Zhanqi can smell is lingering around here.
Here, there is a problem.
"You guys, search these places carefully. Don't miss any place."
Gao Zhanqi spoke out and gave instructions to the people responsible for carrying the sedan chair.
"Yes!"
Three of the four people followed Gao Zhanqi's instructions and went into the dilapidated huts.
There is only one left, protecting Gao Zhanqi.
At this moment, Gao Zhanqi smelled another smell that was more obvious than before, appearing behind him.
Obviously, the person with Gu Insect is moving around, but the scope of his activities still does not extend beyond this area.
Gao Zhanqi thought for a moment, then said to the person outside the sedan, "You should also go and take a look at the back."
"But Gao Young Master, the master has ordered that you cannot be left alone."
"It doesn't matter. Although I don't have much strength now, it doesn't mean that outsiders can easily do anything to me."
Gao Zhanqi doesn't care much.
Seeing Gao Zhanqi insisting, the man followed the instructions and walked back.
When his figure disappeared, Gao Zhanqi felt a gust of wind blowing in front of his sedan.
After the wind passed, he felt that he was no longer in the sedan chair.
He was now in mid-air, and someone was grabbing his shoulders and flying forward.
"My friend, can you tell me why you did this?"
Gao Zhanqi is not anxious about his situation at all, as if he already knew it from the beginning.
"People with Jing Gu react differently from ordinary people, as expected."
Jiang Zhizhou's voice was also light. "But, you still lost."
Gao Zhanqi nodded. "Yes, I lost, but Your Excellency, it seems, did not win either."
