The Journey of the Empress of Quick Travel

He didn't understand why his heart would throb so much every time he saw her tender eyes. He had never felt this way before.

This is a secret, tense and entangled joy that makes Xie Yu himself feel confused.

He didn't understand why he was like this, so he could only suppress this emotion deeply in his heart.

However, the more depressed he was, the more he cared about Feng Ling.

Sometimes, his eyes would even follow her figure unconsciously. Only when he saw that she was safe and sound could he rest assured.

When he was with Fengling, Xie Yu found that he thought of Ye Mo less and less.

But when he was with Ye Mo, Feng Ling's figure always appeared in his mind unconsciously.

Xie Yu's heart seemed to be shrouded in fog. His love for Ye Mo and his concern for Ling Ling were intertwined, forming a chaotic picture.

Is he really so irresponsible? On the one hand, he keeps saying he loves one person, but on the other hand, he never forgets another person in his heart?

In the end, he couldn't even figure out what he really wanted.

On the other side, Lu Xingzhou embarked on a journey to explore the mountains and fields, looking for possible anomalies.

When he came to a river, a subtle strange feeling gradually emerged in his heart.

This small river has carried the lives of villagers for hundreds of years, and the water quality is pure and sweet.

The fish and shrimps in the river swim freely, seemingly without any problems.

However, Lu Xingzhou was keenly aware of the anomaly.

He ordered the medicine boy to catch a few fish and shrimps. After careful observation, he found that the vitality of these fish and shrimps was extremely strong.

When they turned the fish over, they were surprised to find a ring of insect eggs attached to its belly.

This discovery shocked them, because this was the case for several fish and shrimps caught in succession. Lu Xingzhou gradually began to figure things out.

After removing the eggs, the medicine boy carefully put them into bottles and followed the villagers back to the ancestral hall.

After returning to the ancestral hall, Lu Xingzhou did not choose to rest. Instead, he obtained some contaminated blood samples from the doctors taking care of the patients.

After careful comparison, he was shocked to find that the bugs in the blood were the same type of bug eggs found on the fish.

This astonishing discovery surprised everyone.

Xie Yu took the bottle containing the eggs from the medicine boy, and his expression became extremely solemn.

"Do you think this is poison? But who would have such a powerful poison and would do this to innocent villagers?"

Lu Xingzhou also showed a confused expression,

"Actually, this is more like a poison. The poisoner uses the essence and blood of the poisoned person to cultivate the poisonous insects. When the poisonous insects mature, they will break away from the human body, and the host will die as a result."

"These poisonous bugs reproduce very quickly. When poisoned, there will only be a short-term stinging sensation. Afterwards, they will slowly mature in the body and gradually eat away at people's vitality."

After Lu Xingzhou explained in detail, everyone understood the poisoning process.

However, they are more concerned about another issue:

"Now that you know it's a poison, do you know its source? Is there any way to get rid of the poison?"

Feng Ling asked, her eyes wandering between Lu Xingzhou and the bottle of insect eggs, looking a little confused.

Lu Xingzhou was silent for a while, and then his eyes turned to Ye Mo.

He hesitated, then continued:

"This is the Thousand Threads Gu of the Demon Sect. Because it's been so long ago, not many people know about it. I once read about the characteristics of this Gu in an ancient book, so I have some understanding of it. However, that book The medical books do not record the method of detoxification." Demonic gate?

As soon as Lu Xingzhou finished speaking, the other two people also turned their eyes to Ye Mo.

Although they were full of doubts in their hearts, they did not show it on the surface.

Ye Mo's face instantly turned ugly, obviously very dissatisfied with their suspicion.

Her face turned red, and her tone was full of confusion and anger.

"What do you mean? Why are you looking at me like this? Do you suspect that I will poison people?"

Xie Yu smiled awkwardly and tried to explain,

"No, Mo'er, you misunderstood. Of course we believe you, but because you are from the Demon Cult, we want to ask you if you have any clues about this matter."

However, Ye Mo was not comforted by their explanation.

Instead, she felt extremely hurt and betrayed.

The way they looked at her made her feel as if she was an untrustworthy person. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she retorted angrily:

"So what if I am a member of the Demon Cult? I have never harmed ordinary people! Although we people in the Demon Cult do whatever we want, we will never hurt innocent people! It is too much for you to treat me like this!"

Lu Xingzhou saw Ye Mo's sad look and realized that his words might have been too direct.

Although Qiansi Gu is indeed the poison of the Demon Sect, it cannot be ruled out that someone deliberately framed it and provoked a dispute between the righteous way and the Demon Sect.

He should have considered other possibilities more carefully instead of directly pointing the finger at Ye Mo.

However, it's too late to regret now.

The look in their eyes had created a gap in Ye Mo's heart that was difficult to eliminate.

He was about to say something to comfort him, but he heard Feng Ling beside him speak first,

"Sister Ye, you don't need to be anxious. We know what kind of person you are. We have been with you for so long, and you have no chance to do these things. Even the poison given by the demon sect has nothing to do with you. The grudges between people in the world Obviously, they won't be angry with you for this."

This is indeed reasonable, but Fei Ling's tone seemed to have determined that it was the Demon Cult, which made Ye Mo's face become even more ugly.

She had suffered many hardships in the world because of her demonic origin.

Rolling eyes, those so-called righteous people think very highly of themselves and always treat her with a cold shoulder, simply because of her origin.

The sadness in Ye Mo's heart became more and more intense. When she met Xie Yu for the first time, didn't he also make things difficult and dislike her in every possible way?

Although the Demon Sect has indeed done many evil deeds and killed many people in the past, the two factions of the Demon Sect have been coexisting peacefully and peacefully for the past hundred years.

Why do they still doubt her like this?

Therefore, Ye Mo became particularly sensitive about this matter.

She has an impulsive personality and cannot listen to their comfort at this moment:

"You insist that the poison was caused by the Demon Cult, but do you have any evidence? You accuse the Demon Cult to my face like this, have you ever considered my feelings?"

"We are just speculating at this time and have not come up with conclusive evidence."

Xie Yu interrupted Feng Ling's words, with a hint of helplessness and embarrassment in his eyes.

Feng Ling was stunned for a moment, as if she understood something. She looked at Ye Mo, then at Xie Yu, and finally silently closed her mouth and turned away, looking unhappy.

Xie Yu had been paying attention to Feng Ling, and when he saw her like this, he subconsciously wanted to comfort her.

And Ye Mo looked at the interaction between the two, and the sadness in his heart became stronger. (End of chapter)
