Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 837 Heart-Eating Gu

Huo Qing did not answer Tuoba Liuli's question.

She lifted Chu Xiaohe's eyelids, then listened to his chest, and finally pressed her long fingers on several acupoints on his chest.

This time, Chu Xiaohe reacted. In his sleep, he seemed to be suffering some kind of pain, his eyelids trembling violently.

"Third Aunt, Brother Chu seems to be in a lot of pain." Tuoba Liuli felt a pang of heartache upon seeing this.

Huo Qing didn't speak, but continued to press down hard on Chu Xiaohe's heart, one spot at a time.

Chu Xiaohe's reaction became increasingly intense. At first, his eyelids twitched, but later, his whole body trembled.

Her already pale face turned even more ashen, and her lips gradually took on a dark hue.

"Third Aunt..." Tuoba Liuli was extremely anxious.

Although she knew that her third aunt would not harm Chu Xiaohe, seeing Chu Xiaohe suffer made her heart feel like it was being torn apart.

Especially when dark blood trickled from the corner of Chu Xiaohe's lips, it felt as if her heart was being torn apart, and she could hardly breathe.

"Third Aunt, he's vomiting blood!" Tuoba Liuli exclaimed anxiously.

Miao Yucui pulled her along and shook her head at her: "Believe your third aunt, Gu Zhenren is a hermit master, and his disciples are definitely masters as well."

"I know, I just..." Seeing Brother Chu like that really hurt me!

After an unknown amount of time, Huo Qing suddenly released her fingers from Chu Xiaohe's chest, her brows furrowed tightly, and her voice extremely low: "It's the Heart-Eating Gu!"

"Heart-eating Gu?"

Nobody knew what it was, and all they wanted to know was...

"How to crack it?"

"If you're not the one who cast the Gu, the only way is to lure the Gu away." But Huo Qing's expression was very somber.

Tuoba Liuli could also see it, and she felt uneasy: "Is summoning a Gu...very dangerous?"

"Yes, it's not only dangerous, it's terrifying."

Huo Qing stood up.

Tuoba Liuli immediately went over and used a handkerchief to wipe away the blood from the corner of Chu Xiaohe's lips.

Looking back at Huo Qing, she wanted to ask but didn't dare interrupt her train of thought.

No one dared to disturb them, since none of them understood the situation.

Huo Qing sighed softly, then slowly clenched her palms, seemingly helpless, yet also angry.

Finally, she said quietly, "It seems we must find the person who cast the curse."

She turned to look at Miao Yucui: "Did you see Lei Xiao yesterday, sister? What did he say?"

"He drew a map of the route he had taken along the way. The eighteen riders are still searching nearby, but that area is the territory of the Khitan army. They encounter many obstacles in their search, and the number of people they send is always limited. So far, there is still no news of Mo'er."

“A-Li should arrive in two days.” Huo Qing calculated the days and said with concern, “After A-Li arrives, I’m afraid she will have to go in and search for us herself.”

Sukru is divided into two parts. One is where they are now, which, together with the Northern Cavalry of the Mo King, occupies the entire southern part of Sukru.

Their accident occurred north of Sukrug.

The terrain to the north is more complex, and Ali is afraid that something might happen if she goes in herself.

Although A-Li is highly skilled in martial arts, Chu Xiao-He is also quite skilled.

Even Xiao He was bewitched, and the King of Mo has not yet returned. It is unknown whether Ali will be in danger if she goes in.

Miao Yucui, however, thought of something else: "Among them are experts in using Gu poison, then... is it possible that Mo'er was also poisoned and couldn't come back?"
