At this moment, even Yang Lusi became nervous.

Although as Li Weisi's descendant, Yang Lusi knew Li Weisi was fine in the end.

Whether it was him unlocking the Gu for Wu Laogou or following Lan Ling's family back to the Mengli village, he retreated unscathed in the end!

But the facts also showed that Li Weisi did not win a complete victory in this game.

He brought a family genetic disease that was almost like a curse to himself and his descendants!

This should be the retribution for Li Weisi touching Gu techniques without permission.

But what exactly happened in this was the focus of Yang Lusi's investigation.

So, her emotions could not be relaxed at all at this moment.

Holding the armrest of the seat, she was almost crushing the wood!

And Zhang Lin sat upright behind the table, continuing to tell: "In the current situation, in Wu Laogou's own words, he would rather die standing than be forced to return to the Miao village and live on his knees!"

"Of course, Wu Laogou said this very tragically, which made Li Weisi comfort him."

"Li Weisi felt that they weren't going to die anyway, so why not challenge the Mengli chief once in a grand way!"

"Even if the Han people didn't know their feat, the Gu Miao would definitely have their reputation spread."

"Wu Laogou was also a hot-blooded young man; being told this by Li Weisi, some heroism ignited in his chest."

"However, for the Miao girl Lan Ling, she couldn't understand the ambition of these two people at all."

"In Lan Ling's heart, Li Weisi and Wu Laogou were actually courting death!"

"However, her lover was so stubborn, Lan Ling had no choice, so she took out the Heart Gu she carried in her bamboo box."

"When Li Weisi saw the heart that was red and dripping with blood again, his eyes were full of desire."

"At this time, he saw him slowly raise his hand, preparing to place his finger on the Heart Gu!"

"Lan Ling saw this and grabbed Li Weisi, shouting at the same time: Don't touch it, you'll die if you touch it!"

"Li Weisi stopped his movement and looked at Lan Ling with Wu Laogou."

"Lan Ling immediately said: The Heart Gu has been passed down for so many years, and there has always been a rule: it cannot be touched!"

"But Li Weisi didn't care about this; he persuaded Lan Ling that it was precisely because they had followed the rules for generations and didn't touch the Heart Gu that they hadn't unlocked its mysteries for many years."

"If you want to save someone, you have to do as he says!"

"Lan Ling had no choice but to let go, and Li Weisi placed his finger on the Heart Gu in the blink of an eye."

"Instantly, the snake-shaped red and white fine threads that had been moving in the Heart Gu drilled out!"

"In an instant, they climbed onto Li Weisi's finger, then his arm, and finally, under the gaze of Lan Ling and Wu Laogou, a terrifying scene occurred!"

Speaking to this point, let alone the people at the scene, their hearts were in their throats.

Even the trio secretly paying attention to Zhang Lin's storytelling in King Lu Shang's tomb were tense!

The three of them didn't even have time to pay attention to the archaeological team's movements, stopping in tacit agreement to listen to the story.

And Yang Lusi's heart was pounding with nervousness!

At this time, they heard Zhang Lin's cadence continue: "After the red and white fine threads in the Heart Gu climbed onto Li Weisi's arm, they immediately started drilling into his skin!"

"Lan Ling and Wu Laogou were scared silly when they saw this; although they didn't know what this thing was, seeing it desperately squeezing into Li Weisi's body, they knew it wasn't anything good!"

"Lan Ling, in her anxiety, wanted to reach out and pull those red and white threads, but Li Weisi immediately stopped her."

"Li Weisi said urgently: Don't move, Lan Ling, I know what this is; this is a kind of creature, a parasitic creature!"

"They appeared too long ago to trace, but you all used them wrong! Used them wrong!"

"In just over ten seconds, all the red and white fine threads in the Heart Gu drilled into Li Weisi's body."

"Only then did Lan Ling realize that she had held the Bird Heart Gu for so long and never knew that there could be so many red and white fine threads parasitizing in this tiny heart!"

"Lan Ling had always thought that this thing only had two or three strands; now she saw that they were simply bunched together, squeezed into the bird's heart."

"At the same time, she also realized the key to the problem: why did these things go crazy after Li Weisi reached out?"

"Clearly, compared to something as small as a bird's heart, a human body is several times larger! This is the creature they want to parasitize!"

"At this moment, Lan Ling broke out in a cold sweat on her back; she saw all the red and white fine threads heading toward Li Weisi."

"And the bird's heart, having lost its support, slowly stopped beating."

"This Bird Heart Gu, which had been passed down for who knows how many years, died!"

At this time, everyone felt a sense of horror!

The Heart Gu died, which meant that the foundation that kept it beating and fresh was those red and white fine threads!"

Once this creature left the bird's heart, the heart lost its support."

This was a parasitism, and also a symbiosis!"

But clearly, the red and white fine threads occupied a dominant position in this symbiotic relationship."

Once they left, the bird's heart, which had survived for countless years, died immediately!"

Yang Lusi, as a virology expert, felt very complicated at this moment."

From her professional perspective, these red and white fine threads were completely like a virus."

She even had a terrifying thought from this."

Could it be that it was because Li Weisi introduced these red and white fine threads into his body."

So he had a symbiotic relationship with the red and white fine threads, and once these things left, Li Weisi, as the host, would die?"

And the way of death was the same as that bird's heart, which was the heart stopping beating!"

It was just that Yang Lusi had never heard of such things on family members."

Including herself, she had never seen such things appear."

Yang Lusi couldn't help but raise her hand; her skin was fair to the point of being translucent."

The blood vessels on her arms were clearly visible; looking at those veins."

Yang Lusi really couldn't imagine that there would be such red and white fine threads in her body!"

But once such a thought arose in her heart, Yang Lusi felt uncomfortable all over."

It was as if there was some unknown creature in her body!"

At this moment, the audience was also immersed in the bizarre world depicted by Zhang Lin."

Wu Laogou's Miao Frontier past was indeed completely different from the experiences of other Laojiu Sect members!"

Before everyone could drive away the uncomfortable feeling in their hearts."

Zhang Lin continued: "The bird's heart stopped beating, which meant the Heart Gu that Mengli had passed down for many years was gone."

"At this moment, whether Li Weisi could successfully unlock the secret of the Heart Gu or not, he had to return to the Mengli village to explain clearly to the chief."

"Otherwise, Mengli would treat him as an enemy, plant a mark on him, and make him never have peace for the rest of his life!"

"Lan Ling and Wu Laogou were extremely nervous at this time; after the red and white fine threads drilled into Li Weisi's body, they disappeared."

"The two didn't know what Li Weisi's situation was now; just at this moment, Li Weisi suddenly screamed in pain."

"His entire skin turned red rapidly, like a cooked shrimp!"

"Lan Ling reached out and touched Li Weisi, finding his body scorching hot, hotter than someone with a fever!"

"Lan Ling and Wu Laogou were at a loss; looking at Li Weisi, who was red all over, their first thought was to cool him down."

"Otherwise, at this body temperature, he would burn his brain before long."

"But before the two could act, Li Weisi suddenly reached out and grabbed Wu Laogou."

"He gasped for air and said: Quick, Mr. Wu, I know how to unlock the Gu; stretch your head over."

"Li Weisi's state was extremely poor; Wu Laogou didn't dare to delay, immediately letting Li Weisi place his hand on his temple."

"Instantly, Wu Laogou felt something pierce his skin."

"Lan Ling watched from the side with fear and trepidation, because she saw many red and white fine threads suddenly appear on Li Weisi's hand."

"These things seemed to take root and sprout, growing wildly and then drilling into Wu Laogou's temple."

"Only a few seconds passed, and Wu Laogou's face turned red, then he suddenly felt a turmoil in his stomach."

"Before Lan Ling could support him, he bent over and started vomiting!"

"He vomited until the world went dark, wishing he could vomit out his gallbladder."

"And in Wu Laogou's vomit, a black mass appeared."

"After Wu Laogou stopped vomiting, he used his foot to kick the black mass for the first time."

"Who knew, after this kick, the mass actually scattered; it was densely packed black insect eggs!"

"Wu Laogou saw this and wished he could vomit again, but he endured and stepped on all the insect eggs until they burst."

"Afterward, Wu Laogou felt his whole body lighten, and even his brain became much clearer!"

"He looked at Lan Ling with surprise; Lan Ling nodded and said: Yes, your Gu is unlocked; it's truly incredible!"
