Chapter 128: The secret Gu quietly grinds his wings(3/3)

After observing for a while, he found that the purple wooden box had a secret button. He hesitated for a moment, walked out again, and when he returned, he held a slender bamboo branch in his hand.

After taking the bamboo branch, he hesitated for a moment, but still felt that it was not safe. He took another shield that he usually used the most conveniently to block it in front of him. Then he carefully used the bamboo branch to pick the hidden button of the purple wooden box.

With a click, the hidden buckle of the purple wooden box was easily picked open.

No danger happened.

But An Zhilu still frowned slightly without any care.

He carefully used bamboo branches to slowly open the lid.

Just a gap was raised, and a buzzing sound suddenly sounded inside, like insects flying.

"Is it a worm?"

Such a thought suddenly appeared in An Zhilu's mind.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, listened for a moment, and confirmed that it was indeed a living creature, but seemed to be bound to fly out of the box.

He slowly opened the lid of the box little by little, and when he saw what was inside, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The box is divided into nine grids, and there are a total of nine glass bottles placed.

These nine glass bottles are transparent, with a slight mossy color.

There is a glass bottle in the middle that is slightly larger than the other eight glass bottles, the size of a baby's fist, and the hole cover is also glass, but there are several air holes.

There is obviously a Gu insect the size of a fingernail in this bottle.

This insect looked very terrifying, with a blood-red ball, with armor and scarlet soft flesh intertwined on the body, completely different from natural formation.

It looked round and like a beetle, but it had no obvious head. There were four or five black dots at one end. At first he thought it was an eye, but when he got closer to see it, he found that there were vague flesh beards coming in and out of these black dots.

The buzzing sound was the beetle's abdomen rubbing. It seemed that it wanted to use the beetle to scratch or crack the glass bottle to run out, but the glass bottle was extremely strong and it seemed to have been stuck in it for a long time and had no vitality. After the beetle rubbed and shook, it seemed to be used to the light outside entering the wooden box, and gradually stopped moving, just lying weakly, occasionally swaying slightly.

The other eight glass bottles contain various colors of powder, some of which look like powder milled by plants, and some of which are like crystals grinding, with debris shining.

After looking at it for a long time, An Zhilu couldn't see any other mystery in this box. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, feeling that this thing was like a hot potato.

He took a great risk to get the bag last night. By asking the woman about some clues he got, he suspected that the bag was left by the fallen monk who assassinated Qi Yu before.

There is an extremely strange insect in the box now, and he thinks that this guess is basically a sure thing.

But he planned to practice methods of depravity or methods against the enemy, even the method of practicing poison.

But now there are no such things. I don’t know what use it can be used for this Gu worm, or how to refine or how to use it.

If this thing is left in your hand, if it suddenly makes a strange sound again, it will be impossible to explain it clearly when it is noticed.

As soon as he thought of this, he felt that for the sake of safety, he had to deal with the wooden box, even if he dig a deep hole and buried it first.

But the moment he covered the wooden box, his body suddenly shook.

The purple wooden box cover is tightly tucked, and there seems to be no slight gap.

There are many small holes on the cap of the glass bottle that traps the Gu worm. Are those holes not used to breathe this hideous and weird Gu worm, but to feed it?

Are those things that look like medicine powder used to feed it?

This insect can't die in such a box, so this kind of thing should not be an ordinary thing.

If you dig a hole and buried it, it may not be suffocated to death, but if the underground moisture enters, will it die if it is soaked in water?

When he thought about it, he suddenly had a good place to settle it for the time being.

He immediately wrapped a bag of the purple wood box with two pieces of coarse cloth, then took a backpack for the food and put it in, put the skin bag containing the rest of the things in it, and then covered it with a lot of debris. Then he pretended to be buying again and went out.

When passing through an alley, the alley was filled with people, as if looking inside to watch the fun.

The yelling and scolding of officials kept ringing in the alley.

An Zhilu didn't stop to see what was going on, but just walked away slowly.

...

The police and Dian Shi in Youzhou City were so busy that they kept calling out these days.

There are troubles everywhere, and almost all practitioners are causing trouble.

Two officials in charge of the city's arrest have been asking the Youzhou military for practitioners in the past two days.

"We don't have enough manpower. There are more powerful practitioners in this period than I have seen in my whole life. Even if we transfer all the practitioners in Yuyang County, Yunzhong County, it's not enough to call them."

"Even if there are no practitioners, you will work harder. It is good to have more armored men patrol outside and walk around more. At worst, we can invite more brothers under your command to drink in a few days."

A military general who was entangled by an official was the Nan Chengzong Captain who had previously lent money to An Zhilu.

"You guys are so stupid, so you come here to talk." Captain Nan knew that this person must have been deliberately running here to speak, "You are thinking that Superintendent Xu is here and putting pressure on us. They are all their brothers. You are still so despicable. Don't you know what we are going to do?"

"No matter how difficult it is, you can't always have murder cases. Two more lives were killed last night! You are not afraid of us." The official who was pestering Nan Chengzong wanted to kneel down and hug his legs.

"Two more lives were killed?" Nan Chengzong was stunned.

"The old Ding from Xiangchunyi was stabbed to death last night."

The official looked extremely ugly and said, "Just just now, there was a female corpse in the well in the Lihua Lane. The coroner carefully checked it and raped it first and then killed it, and raped it more than once, not only in one place."

Nan Chengzong was stunned, "What does it mean to be more than one place?"

The official said in a cold voice: "The coroner said that the thief is very powerful. Not only is the woman's lower body swollen, she has been raped for a long time, but her anus has also been torn."

Nan Chengzong frowned.

The official continued: "The coroner said that this person is very addicted. Perhaps he should be a very lustful person who raped the woman for at least one hour. I thought to investigate, and I am afraid that he would need to start from the laughing market in the city. The women in the fun were asked one by one to see if there are such people among the guests they usually receive. But where did we get the staff? I don't know why this person is so perverted. After rape and killing people, he would throw it into the well where many people eat water. The news has spread. The city is full of wind and rain. If this person cannot be found, people will be in panic. Which woman can sleep well in the future? Which woman dares to walk outside?"

"The armored soldiers and Xuan armor are really not there."

Nan Chengzong's expression was also ugly, and he said softly: "These armored soldiers in the city have been divided up by several families, for fear that there will be some other practitioners who will go into the yard to rob you in the next night. I will find a way to stop a hundred city guards with their legs and legs to dispatch you. If you meet a practitioner, don't think about fighting desperately, just surrender or lie down on the ground and pretend to be dead. Listen to my advice, practitioners who dare to do something outside recently will either have a good background or have a very good fact and will definitely not be able to provoke them. Also, please don't come here to make trouble. The next few days, there is not enough manpower. I told me privately that you don't have to use a warrior to investigate anyway."

...

An Zhilu walked north along the street, and a servant in green trotted to him.

"Xiao Du, please tell Qingniu for me, and let him call everyone to help me check things related to the Depravity View. Anyway, whether it is news related to the Depravity View or related books and records, the old people who knew a lot about the previous dynasty would help me find it."
