At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 728
The wind blows the bamboo leaves, making a rustling sound. When the bamboo swings, they rub against each other, creaking and creaking, like a ghost crying.Gao Bufan glanced at the soldier captain Gao Dahe who was still standing like a log, frowned and asked, "Is there an antidote for your Lost Soul Incense?"

The witch Miao Yingxiu shook her head and said: "No, but this medicine has a time-sensitive effect, and it will automatically lose its effectiveness within a few hours. It will not cause much harm to the body, but it will feel tired after waking up. It will be fine after a day of rest, and it will not Remember what happened."

Gao Bufan was relieved when he heard the words, Miao Yingxiu walked to Gao Dahe's side, whispered something into Gao Dahe's ear, and the latter walked back and forth in silence.

Gao Bufan frowned: "What did you do to him?"

Miao Yingxiu said respectfully: "This servant just let him go back to sleep by himself, and he will be fine when he wakes up tomorrow."

Gao Bufan nodded and said: "So that's the case, then you should go back too, what happened tonight must not be disclosed to anyone, otherwise you will know the consequences."

Miao Yingxiu trembled slightly and said, "Your maidservant knows." After speaking, she looked at Gao Bufan helplessly, without moving her footsteps.

Gao Bufan said indifferently: "The mother Gu will be returned to you at an appropriate time, so you don't have to worry about it now."

Miao Yingxiu sighed secretly, and said: "Mother Gu is usually fed by my blood essence, if you don't eat it for three days, you will starve to death, once the mother Gu dies, the child Gu will also kill the host, King Qi don't care Forgot to feed it."

Gao Bufan frowned and said, "Mother Gu must eat your blood?"

Miao Yingxiu hesitated for a moment, but finally shook her head and said, "It's not necessary, King Qi only needs to feed it a small drop of his own blood every three days."

Miao Yingxiu originally wanted to lie to Gao Bufan that the mother Gu could only eat her own blood, and then draw the child Gu out of her body while feeding the blood, but she gave up after thinking about it, this child is so shrewd, maybe it will make him Putting out a bowl or two of blood for later use, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?
Gao Bufan glanced at Miao Yingxiu with a half-smile, and said calmly: "I know, but I'm a little afraid of pain if I use the blood of other animals."

Miao Yingxiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly said: "No, it must be human blood, otherwise the mother Gu won't eat it, and she will get angry, and it will only be slaves who will suffer."

"So that's the case, anyway, this king will spare some blood, so you can go back." Gao Bufan waved his hand.

Miao Yingxiu had no choice but to put on her goat skull mask and left helplessly. Before leaving, she told Gao Bufan to give him blood before tomorrow night.

As soon as the witch left, the surroundings became quiet. Gao Bufan glanced behind the dense bamboo trees and said, "Qingruo, come out."

A figure jumped down from behind the tree like a broken leaf, it was Yang Qingruo who was dressed as a scribe, she had been hiding on a bamboo tree the whole time.

"Second brother has seen it?" Gao Bufan teased.

Yang Qingruo gouged out Gao Bufan's eyes, and said bitterly: "His Royal Highness King Qi is indeed very beautiful, there is a beauty who comes to your door in the middle of the night, if I knew she would not follow her, it would ruin the good thing that King Qi enjoys the beauty."

Gao Bufan smiled wryly and said: "With such a beautiful blessing, it's better for me not to, if it's not for my cleverness, I'm afraid I've already got the right way."

Yang Qingruo's heart trembled when she heard the words, she has also seen the power of the so-called "Mother-Mother Heart Gu" with her own eyes, and once Gao Lang falls for that thing, the consequences will be really unimaginable, so she said coldly: "The Gu art is too vicious, it's really It’s hard to guard against, or I’d better kill this witch with a sword, so as not to raise a tiger.”

Gao Bufan quickly grabbed her and said, "I can't kill you."

"Why? Could it be that you really want to sleep with her because she is beautiful?" Yang Qingruo snorted with a pretty face.

Gao Bufan sweated secretly, blamed himself for teasing the witch just now, and overturned the jar of jealousy again, and said with a wry smile: "Qing Ruo, why am I like this?"

"What do you say about Qingfeng and Mingyue?" Yang Qing was still angry if she mentioned this pair of foxes.

Gao Bufan suddenly coughed in embarrassment: "It's just to confuse Wang Shichong's needs, and it's just a play on the occasion, it can't be true."

Yang Qingruo was annoyed: "Then why didn't you send them away afterwards, and stayed in Luoyang, do you want to continue playing around?"

Gao Bufan couldn't help sweating. To be honest, he really didn't have any feelings for Qingfeng and Mingyue, but at least he put them to sleep, and the other party was a big girl. Let him treat women like items and throw them away after use. No, so he placed Qingfeng Mingyue in Luoyang, but Qingruo felt jealous, so he said, "Okay, I'll sell them when I go back."

Yang Qingruo hummed slightly: "Dignified King Qi, wouldn't it be embarrassing to sell your own woman?"

"Could it be given to someone else?"

"That won't work either, how could the Ninth Five-Year Lord give away a woman he favored?"

"Then what should we do?" Gao Bufan smiled wryly.

Yang Qingruo resentfully said: "Let's raise it, anyway, we won't waste much rice."

Gao Bufan was secretly amused, he knew that Qing Ruo's little vinegar jar had a knife mouth and a bean curd heart.Yang Qingruo rolled his eyes at a certain guy who was secretly proud of himself, stretched out his snow-like jade palm and said: "Bring it!"

Gao Bufan immediately handed over the vessel containing the female Gu to Yang Qingruo tactfully, and the latter smiled satisfied when he saw that the man was so well-behaved and obedient.

Someone Gao immediately took the opportunity to hold the catkins of the Gongsun family, and said in a low voice: "Tonight is really a blessing in disguise. With the cooperation of the witch, it is no problem to subdue the white seedlings. Now only the black seedlings are left."

Yang Qingruo frowned and said, "What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to find an opportunity to talk to the chief of the black seedlings first, and test his attitude." Gao Bufan replied.

Yang Qingruo nodded and said: "That's the only way to go. By the way, the blind eye yesterday may be a breakthrough. Gao Lang might as well start with him first."

Gao Bufan said with a smile: "Qing Ruo and I really have a good understanding, I'm planning to find him."

Yang Qingruo felt sweet in her heart, suddenly her eyes showed surprise, and she blurted out: "Look, Gao Lang, the river seems to be getting shallower?"

Gao Bufan quickly looked up, and sure enough, he noticed that the river surface seemed to be narrowing, so he stepped forward to observe carefully, and found that there was a footprint in the soft mud on the bank, which was left by Gao Dahe when he stepped into the water with one foot, and now he is completely naked. exposed.

"Weird, does the river have tides?" Gao Bufan asked with a strange look.

Yang Qingruo shook her head blankly.

The two waited for a while, the river obviously receded a little, Gao Bufan looked up the river thoughtfully.

"What's wrong?" Yang Qingruo asked upon seeing this.

Gao Bufan frowned and said: "There was an earthquake a few days ago. In this case, a landslide occurred upstream and blocked the river. The specific situation needs to be observed again."

The two waited by the river for another half an hour, and found that although the river water had receded, it did not fall much.Seeing this, Yang Qingruo said, "It's probably not what Gao Lang said, it's probably just the rain that caused the river to rise, and now it's just receding."

"It should be!" Gao Bufan nodded. If a landslide formed a barrier lake, the water in the river should decrease rapidly. The probability of this slow decrease is that it is receding.

"It's late, let's go back!" Yang Qingruo turned around and walked, Gao Bufan even followed, holding the former's hand and saying: "Second brother, let's sleep together tonight."

Yang Qingruo's face became hot, she pinched someone and said angrily, "Don't call me second brother, it's disgusting!"

Gao Bufan said with a smile: "Then good lady, how about sharing the bed with my husband tonight?"

"Good idea!" Yang Qingruo's heart trembled, she shook off someone's strange hand with malicious intentions, and stepped away.
