Chapter 351: Chapter 344: Another Life Lost_1
Qin Niu also became uncertain.
He could only wait and see.
After a while, her eyebrows furrowed.
“Ugh!”
She made a retching sound, and her expression was no longer numb but revealed a hint of pain.
Seeing this, Qin Niu actually felt a surge of happiness.
A reaction was a sign of a good thing.
If there had been no reaction, then it would mean the exorcism method was ineffective.
“Master Qin, we keep roasting my wife like this, and she seems to be struggling.”
Wang Haikun was worried that the charcoal fire would burn his wife.
Indeed, her body had begun to overheat, sweat had already soaked her face, dampening her hair.
“Ugh… Wah!”
Splash!
She vomited a mouthful of foul-smelling filth, her eyes rolled back, her body went rigid, and she spasmed continuously.
It looked very much like the reaction of someone on the verge of death.
“Master Qin, if we keep roasting her like this, my wife will die.”
Wang Haikun hurriedly moved his wife aside.
“Don’t move, don’t move. Let her keep roasting, trust me.”
Qin Niu commanded.
Life was at stake, and Wang Haikun clearly did not trust him, still wanting to carry his wife away to a safer place.
At that moment, black blood began to flow from He Yue’s nostrils.
“Ah…”
She let out an exceedingly mournful scream, and blood started to flow from her eyes as well.
The scene was extremely frightening.
Qin Niu’s heart sank; the Mother Gu was being forcibly expelled from her body, could it be out of spite, and now intended to destroy the host?
Just as he was puzzled, a red spider crawled out from her left nostril.
It dashed into the wooden bucket below in a blink.
It plunged into the blood and disappeared instantly.
The Gu was shadowless, traceless, formless, dissolving into the blood as soon as it entered.
He Yue screamed once and then passed out.
“Your wife should be alive. You go fetch some river water and clean her up, burn all the blood-stained sheets and clothes.”
After speaking, Qin Niu carried the bucket and promptly walked out of the room.
The Mother Gu was in the blood within the bucket.
It shouldn’t come out now.
Once it had consumed all the energy in the blood, it would emerge.
It’s a pity that he hadn’t mastered the Gu Control Technique.
Otherwise, he could have found a way to control this Mother Gu.
But Qin Niu wasn’t entirely without a means to deal with it.
He carried the bucket directly to the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze and placed the bucket inside.
Even though the Mother Gu could transform and escape from the Insect Jar as a wisp of blood, it should not be able to escape from the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze.
Keeping this Mother Gu, he had his own uses for it.
After leaving the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze, Qin Niu quickly headed to He Saixiang’s home in Daoyuan Village.
But it was still one step too late.
Just as he arrived outside the house, he heard wails and cries of grief from inside. The person must have already died.
It was fate sealed.
Such matters involving the heavens, Qin Niu had no way of intervening.
King Yama would not keep a person destined to die at the third watch until the fifth watch.
If he had forcefully intervened, even if he had managed to save He Saixiang, he would have contracted a great karma.
Upon entering the room, he saw He Saixiang’s corpse drenched, as if just pulled out from the water.
