The General's Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 535: Gu

Translator: Vesper

It seemed that this Gu Worm was carefully crafted by other people. Once it got out of his body, the other party would receive a strong backlash.

The man was silent for a moment, then nodded: “Take it out.”

Ning Meng Yao blinked and looked at the man in doubt, why could she see the helplessness and bitterness in this man’s eyes, as if there was something more going on.

“Was this thing put into your body by someone you know?” Ning Meng Yao suddenly asked.

The man nodded wryly: “Yeah.”

Ning Meng Yao’s eyes twitched, she was actually correct.

“Then you are really tragic.” The feeling of betrayal was never a good feeling.

The man laughed a little, it was full of pain and helplessness: “Yeah, and I still do not understand why she did it.”

“She?”

“Yes. I wish to follow you all.” The man said suddenly looking at Ning Meng Yao.

“You want to ask the woman why she treated you the way she did?” Ning Meng Yao thought a little and understood the man.

The man nodded: “Yeah, I thought about this for ten years but I still do not know the reason.” If she just told him directly, he would have helped her. She did not have to dirty her hands.

But she did not, instead, she did the thing he hated the most, that was to force him to do the things he did not like.

He had stayed here for ten years but never had he seen that woman again. He thought, maybe that person had long since forgotten him.

Ning Meng Yao looked at the loneliness on the man’s face, and suddenly felt that this man was really very pitiful.

“You have talked so much but we still do not know your name.” Ning Meng Yao said after realizing it.

“My name is just a codename, you may call me Wu Chen.” This man, no, he was now called Wu Chen.

Ning Meng Yao took a silent glance at Wu Chen. How much had this person suffered that he did not even want his name anymore?

“Your name is like a monk’s name.” Ning Meng Yao pouted and murmured softly.

Wu Chen moved a little, then he shook his head with a smile: “The monks see no vanity in this world. I am almost at their stage now.”

“Forget it, Nan Yu, take the Gu Worm out of his body.”

Nan Yu had wanted to do that long ago, but he was waiting for Ning Meng Yao’s order.

Nan Yu walked over, took out a dagger and cut his own wrist, and then cut Wu Chen’s wrist. Afterwards, Wu Chen saw a thumb-sized worm gradually appearing on Nan Yu’s wound.

It was a weirdly-shaped worm with a little bit of bright color on it. Before he could think about it, he felt a sharp pain in his body. This was how he felt whenever the Gu Worms were triggered.

Wu Chen saw a black spot slowly appearing on his wrist, the black spot became larger and larger, and a worm crawled out, and then another one came out after it. It was fiery red in colour.

Nan Yu looked differently at Wu Chen: “What kind of resentment do you have with that woman? She actually put two worms in your body, and both of them are very powerful as well.”

Wu Chen stared at the two worms crawling out of his wound. When he returned to his senses, the two worms had crawled to Nan Yu’s hand.

Nan Yu threw a box to Wu Chen: “Apply this to the wound, and it will be fine.”

Wu Chen lowered his head and put the ointment on the wound. Sure enough, Nan Yu was right, the blood stopped flowing out from the wound. If there was not a wound on his wrist, he would have thought that the cut earlier was just an illusion.

Without the ravages of Gu Worms, Wu Chen felt his body much more relaxed.

Nan Yu looked at the blood-red Gu Worm and shouted in astonishment, “This is an amazing find.”

“What is the use of this Gu?” Ning Meng Yao asked curiously.

“The person who has been poisoned with this Gu worm can only fall in love with the person who gave it. Not only that, if the person has other feelings for other women, the person would feel tremendous pain, even if he was only close friends with other women, it was unacceptable. This is one overbearing Gu Worm.” Nan Yu explained while putting the three Gu Worms into this body.

Then Nan Yu’s brows frowned tightly, sealing the wound on his wrists.
