Chapter 201: The Foreign Doctor Unravels the Secret of the Divine Gu Art

~5 min read 951 words

When Zhang Lin revealed Miss Lan Ling's identity, everyone was shocked.

The status of Heart Gu Woman is roughly equivalent to a Holy Maiden among the Gu Miao.

Miss Lan Ling becoming a Heart Gu Woman had nothing to do with her being the clan chief's granddaughter.

It was purely because her bloodline was compatible with the Bird-Heart Gu.

Therefore, what she was best at was planting Heart Gu.

After marrying Dog Fifth Master, it naturally occurred to her to plant a Heart Gu on Dog Fifth Master.

At this moment, they heard Zhang Lin continue: "Moreover, as a Heart Gu Woman, there is a rule that the Heart Gu cannot be planted for oneself."

"Clearly, Miss Lan Ling planting a Heart Gu on Dog Fifth Master completely violated the clan's regulations."

"The reason for this rule is not that they didn't want Heart Gu Women to marry and have children."

"It was entirely for their own consideration, because as a Heart Gu Woman, once she plants a Heart Gu on someone for herself—"

"If that person's heart changes and he dies, the Gu Woman will also die!"

Hum—

Upon hearing this, the audience instantly burst into an uproar!

In other words, if Dog Fifth Master truly changed his heart and married someone else—

Not only would he die, but Miss Lan Ling would die too; this Gu would backlash.

This was her punishment as a Heart Gu Woman who violated clan rules to plant a Gu for herself!

This scene made the audience even more anxious.

No one understood how a perfectly fine matter had turned out like this.

It seemed as though in this matter, no one was at fault, yet in the end it produced the worst outcome.

The audience finally understood why Miss Lan Ling's father had brought her all the way to Old Changsha.

Because if they didn't come, Miss Lan Ling would die too!

And not only would she die, because she violated clan rules, she would also be punished.

Even if she died, this punishment could not be escaped.

Her father and brothers would all be implicated by her!

Some of the female viewers in the audience could take it no longer; their initial sympathy for Miss Lan Ling had turned into complaints.

"I'm speechless, isn't this the textbook lovesick fool?"

"Right! As a Gu Woman, why did she violate the rules and plant a Gu on Wu Laogou?"

"I'm truly drunk, really. I don't know whether to call Miss Lan Ling stupid or naive — she met him just once, and she actually dared to entrust her whole life to Wu Laogou?!"

"Actually, if Miss Lan Ling hadn't planted a Heart Gu on Wu Laogou, her family could have stayed comfortably in the Miao village right now and wouldn't have had to care whether Wu Laogou lived or died!"

"It's over, sisters! I have a bad feeling!"

"Me too, lovesickness harms people deeply. I bet Miss Lan Ling has more foolish moves coming!"

It had to be said, the female viewers were very perceptive and saw things clearly.

At this point, Zhang Lin hadn't yet explained how Li Li Weisi helped Wu Laogou escape his predicament.

Yet female viewers were already predicting that Miss Lan Ling would do something foolish later!

Zhang Lin raised an eyebrow and continued: "Precisely because Miss Lan Ling planted a Heart Gu on Wu Laogou and couldn't stand aside, her family came to Old Changsha."

"Now, if they can't persuade Wu Laogou to return to the Miao village, Miss Lan Ling's family won't fare well."

"Miss Lan Ling's grandfather is the clan chief, but her grandfather has many sons."

"Miss Lan Ling's father is only one of the contenders for the next clan chief."

"Don't assume that just because the Miao people are simple, there is no struggle for power — the truth is quite the opposite."

"The more uncivilized a place, the more direct and brutal the methods used in power struggles!"

"I'm afraid that from the moment Miss Lan Ling's family left the Miao village for Old Changsha, her father's brothers had already been watching them."

"Originally, Miss Lan Ling being this generation's Heart Gu Woman greatly boosted her father's standing."

"But precisely because of Wu Laogou's arrival, Miss Lan Ling's father's branch completely lost its qualification to compete for the clan chief."

"Li Li Weisi, this foreigner, combining what he knew of Wu Laogou with the situation he now saw, quickly made a judgment in his mind."

"He already had an idea. Li Li Weisi said to Miss Lan Ling: I can take you to see him, but the Wu family's compound is hard to enter. I can only bring you in."

At this moment, any viewer with a little life experience had already sensed Li Li Weisi's calculation.

He must have had things he wanted to say to Miss Lan Ling alone.

But at this time, Miss Lan Ling's father and elder brother were both present, so it wasn't convenient for Li Li Weisi to speak.

That's why he wanted to take Miss Lan Ling away alone, to find an opportunity!

It seemed Li Li Weisi had already figured out many things through this private meeting.

He had even thought of a way to resolve the current predicament.

Sure enough, Zhang Lin continued: "The Lan father and son detected nothing wrong with Li Li Weisi's proposal."

"Miss Lan Ling was taken away by Li Li Weisi. On the way to the Wu residence, Li Li Weisi began to ask Miss Lan Ling some questions."

"Because from his contact with Wu Laogou over the past few days, Li Li Weisi was certain of one thing."
