Chu Shiyu had poisoned her soul. As long as she did not listen to him, she would laugh herself to death like she did just now.
As for Lan'er, Chu Shiyu suspected that she was Ji Wuqing and the daughter of a Fated Star.
She called Lan`er into her room and took out the little bell that Ji Wuqing had given to her.
Lan'er took it and asked curiously, ”Why did you give this to me?” You want me to do something for the girl? ”
”Lan, do you have any idea what this bell looks like, or where you've seen it before?”
Lan'er shook her head. She had never seen this bell before. Ever since she became sensible, she had been sold to an embroidery workshop to learn embroidery.
She remembered two years ago, when Lan'er was chosen by a bully, the boss of the embroidery workshop wanted to sell her to that bully.
She remembered that there was a small bell embroidered on the handkerchief she wore.
Since then, Lan'er had always been by Chu Shiyu's side. She was very smart, and knew how to teach her martial arts as soon as she learned it. Although she didn't know when she was born, she still looked around the same age as Chu Shiyu.
It was just that she said that she had no image of this bell, making Chu Shiyu somewhat forget.
Since she promised Ji Wuqing to help her find that child, she wouldn't let down Ji Wuqing's trust.
She looked at Lan'er's waist. She must have also had a birthmark, but Chu Shiyu didn't reveal it. He left the soul at Lan'er's side. With his little intelligence, he would find the birthmark on Lan'er's waist sooner or later.
Master Chu also didn't understand. Didn't a girl let a man have a look at her? Was he going to cry and die? When she was at the Palace of Hunting, didn't she let Long Ao Tian see it before? [Why didn't I see him do it? Perhaps, his skin was rather thick!
She had to return to the palace as soon as possible, because it was so peaceful and strange.
Late at night, just as Chu Shiyu was about to sleep, she suddenly saw a shadow flash by the window. She got up in shock and chased after it.
He ran out of the hall but saw nothing. He disappeared like a ghost. With her current inner force, probing the surroundings wouldn't be difficult at all. She would definitely be able to determine the wrong thing within 100 steps.
But that figure didn't even have a breath of life. Did he really see a ghost?
Master Chu was worried, so he went to the Heaven and Earth Palace to check. The Heaven and Earth Palace was the entrance to the palace's secret chamber, and there were many secrets hidden within.
There was also the dragon's scale, which was kept inside the secret chamber. Although the master had secretly moved the dragon's scale to a safe location, they still had to guard against anyone from entering the secret chamber.
Walking to the Heaven and Earth Palace, he saw that the guards at the entrance were motionless, their faces pale, and their eyes glazed over as though someone had drugged them.
As for Gu poison, in this world, if Ji Wuqing was to be ranked first, no one would dare call themselves second. After all, she was the successor of Ji Wuqing, so how could she not be worthy of her title?
She slapped a few guards until a few silkworm bugs fell from their bodies. Only then did the guards slowly regain their consciousness.
”We pay our respects to the Grand Princess …”
”No need to be so polite!” Master Chu held hands to avoid their etiquette, then asked, ”Is there something different about the Heaven and Earth Palace? Have you seen anyone or anything enter the hall? ”
The guards shook their heads, indicating that they did not see anything. That's right, if he could see the other party, he would not have just been infected by the Gu and would have died a long time ago.
That person had sneaked in because he did not want to be discovered, which was the reason why he had drugged these guards.
She ordered someone to stand guard outside. She stepped into the Universal Hall and slowly opened the door to the secret chamber. Everything inside was as it had always been.
Although there were traces of it being turned over, it had still been placed in its original position. She quietly observed every corner of the secret room, and discovered that there were traces of someone moving it.
It seemed that the palace was no longer safe. If someone came in, why didn't they activate the ghost army in the secret room? Was he a dead man?
