Love Locking Gu (2)

When the woman first encountered this kind of situation, perhaps she would still be vexed, wondering how could there be someone that can escape from her beauty and charm, but after repeatedly encountering again and again, she also just got used to it. All her attention was on Li Hong Yuan, that man that even the love-locking gu can’t lock. As expected of the man she fancied. Her intense desire to conquerer made her have the others all tossed aside.
Based on her knowledge, the love-locking gu indeed had cases where it didn’t succeed at first. That’s why, when Li Hong Yuan didn’t fall in love with her immediately, she wasn’t surprised either. If it’d really succeeded immediately, then she’d be disappointed. She liked things that had a challenge, and these days, she’d never once given up. On one hand, she used all kinds of methods to influence him, while on the other hand, patiently waited.
She originally thought that the most opportune timing was when that Jin Wangfei appeared. Truthfully speaking, letting that woman who was like soaked in honey helplessly watch her husband hold another woman, recounting sweet words, that crumbling sense of helplessness and look of disbelief just made one feel exceptionally pleased.
Just, never thought that this opportunity actually came early, but this was also fine.
“Are you sure you want to block me? Your master right now isn’t too well.”
However, the shadow guards guarding the door were still indifferent. Even if not completely doubting her words, they still didn’t have any intention of moving aside.
“Alright, I’ll just wait here. In any case, the longer this drags out, the higher my chance of success.”
The woman smiled sweetly and elegantly, appearing increasingly incompatible with that face. Others perhaps would feel it was endlessly charming, but for them, who had a clear mind, it just felt extremely weird.
The female gu that stimulated the love-locking effect was continuously influencing the male gu. The male gu’s reaction was becoming increasingly intense. And Li Hong Yuan’s control over it seemingly was weakening little by little, just like an invisible war.
And on the other side, Jing Wan once again sunk into a half-asleep, half-awake state, her dreams numerous and chaotic. Regardless of what kind of dream, as the person in the dream, clearly very bright and colorful, yet the surroundings didn’t appear very clear and bright. But, Jing Wan’s dream this time was a bit unusual. She didn’t know where she was, seemingly a fugitive on the run. There were others by her side. They were doing everything they can to protect her, dying one after another.
And she, even if carrying a big belly, was still skilled with the bow on horseback. However, in the end, because of being constantly on the run, without a fixed residence, unable to eat well and sleep well, her body gradually wasn’t able to withstand anymore, increasingly wasting away. If not for her foundation being good, the child perhaps would’ve long been gone. Under this kind of situation, she prematurely went into labor, resulting in a difficult birth. In the middle of nowhere, where there was no village in front and no inn in the rear, and by her side there was just a guard that knew nothing in this aspect, the child was unable to be born. In the end, she chose to cut open her stomach.
Jing Wan held her stomach. Unknown as to when, her forehead was already drenched with fine beads of sweat, her mouth overflowing with painful groans. She seemingly knew she was dreaming, but just unable to wake up. Moreover, clearly it was just a scene in a dream, yet she seemingly also felt the piercing pain.
Hei Mei was guarding outside, so this while, how could she still not have any reactions.
She hurriedly opened the small door made from branches tied together. The light from the flames outside casted in. Jing Wan’s painful expression clearly showed.
“Wangfei——” Hei Mei instantly panicked, “Wangfei, wangfei, what’s wrong, where do you feel uncomfortable? Wangfei, wangfei, don’t scare this servant, wangfei….” Hei Mei really regretted, very much regretted. Why, why didn’t she learn anything in this aspect, else she wouldn’t be unable to do anything at this time.
This kind of disturbance, how could it not attract attention. Sun Yi Lin and Fu Rong very quickly came over. That worried and fretful look on their face wasn’t an act either, yet Hei Mei was just like a mother hen protecting her child, simply not allowing them to approach.
“Hei Mei, don’t be unreasonable. Right now, wangfei and the child are more important.” Fu Rong softly urged.

Hei Mei resentfully glared at her, very much wanting to ask her, this stance right now, who are you showing off to? Wasn’t it her that took wangfei away from White Dragon Temple? If wangfei had stayed in White Dragon Temple, then how could this kind of thing happen.
However, Hei Mei this while was also aware of the severity of the matter, thus didn’t argue with them.
The simple small hut got quickly and carefully taken apart. Sun Yi Lin carefully supported Jing Wan’s upper body, taking out a pill. Just as he was about to feed it to Jing Wan, he heard a swoosh sound cutting through the air. A short arrow shot out from the dark, directly having Sun Yi Lin’s hand shot through. The pill in his hand naturally just fell onto the ground.
Sun Yi Lin painfully groaned. Shortly after, rustling sounds sounded from the forest, and before the others could react, the shadows in the forest jumped out one after another. Several dozen people quickly had the scene put under control. Solely looking at their movements, one just knew that they absolutely weren’t simple.
And as for Sun Yi Lin, aside from the initial muffled groan, there was no other reaction. His other hand just firmly held Jing Wan from beginning to end. Towards his hand that was dripping with blood, and the arrow in his hand, he all ignored.
One of the shadows directly walked towards Sun Yi Lin, carrying an indescribably chilling air. Compared to the others, there wasn’t any bloody scent. However, that imposing manner absolutely didn’t allow for one to underestimate.
Their steps were steady and firm, and when the other party got closer, Sun Yi Li finally saw clearly. Turns out, it was actually a woman.
She quickly took out her own medicine, swiftly feeding into Jing Wan’s mouth. During this time, Hei Mei subconsciously reached out to block, yet completely failed. Hei Mei’s eyes reddened with worry. When having no other choice, she could only watch Sun Yi Lin feed wangfei medicine. At least, she can feel that Sun Yi Lin won’t really harm wangfei. But this person of unknown origins, “Who are you, what did you feed wangfei?”
“Hei Mei, knowing that wangfei will leave White Dragon Temple, to not stop her, this offense, will settle with you when we return.”
This voice, this voice couldn’t be more familiar. Hei Mei was a bit sluggish, “Ma, mama?”
Gong mama coldly grunted, no longer paying attention to her, “Gentleman Sun, asking you to please move aside.” Along the way, don’t know how many times she wanted to charge out and have Sun Yi Lin directly slaughtered.
In reality, towards these people appearing, Sun Yi Lin wasn’t that surprised. Then again, for someone like Li Hong Yuan, who was able to deceive everyone, how meticulous were his thoughts, so how could he just let them have the person taken away from White Dragon Temple that easily. Having people secretly protecting during the trip was completely plausible. And letting his wangfei leave White Dragon Temple, he most likely also had his own aim.
And along the way, if he’d really done a bit of something to Jing Wan, then he’d probably already be dead to the point where he couldn’t be more dead.
Jing Wan moved from Sun Yi Lin’s arms to Gong mama’s arms.
Gong mama took Jing Wan’s pulse, carefully touching her stomach and also the area below. She was able to feel the child moving, and the area below also didn’t feel damp. Thus, she slightly relaxed a breath. There most likely wasn’t blood.
However, letting her continue sleeping like this ultimately wasn’t good, “Wangfei, wangfei….” Gong mama lightly attempted to have Jing Wan wakened. However, it was obviously ineffective, making Gong mama once again worry. Did wangfei get poisoned with gu again?
“Ah Yuan, Ah Yuan…..” Jing Wan suddenly got trapped by her dreams, her body restlessly swaying.
“Wangfei, wangfei, wake up, wake up. This servant will take you to go find wangye. You’ll be able to see wangye very soon, wangfei……”
Sun Yi Lin took it all in. Hearing Jing Wan repeatedly call out ‘Ah Yuan’, if not for loving to the bones, then presumably, it won’t reach this degree. Lowering his eyes, he expressionlessly pulled out the arrow in his hand, and afterwards, walked to one side, casually applying a bit of medicine, tearing a piece of white cloth, and bandaging it.
He glanced at Jing Wan who was still trapped in her dreams, unable to wake, not knowing what she had dreamt of. Some things, even if he stubbornly refused to believe, it was nevertheless still a fact.
The others all got detained. Anyone who dares to resist will just directly get killed. Of course, they won’t leave behind the slightest bloodstain. In any case, they already know their master’s exact location now, so these people already didn’t have anymore value. As for Sun Yi Lin, don’t know if it was because he was perceptive, or some other reason, they actually didn’t touch him.
And outside Li Hong Yuan’s door, that woman dressed in exotic clothes, her smile was increasingly bright, carrying the joy of having the fruit of victory near at hand. Even the bell on her wrist all started sounding.
At a certain instance, her smile once again magnified, thinking to herself, it’s done. However, in an instant, her smile froze on her face.
“Wan Wan—–” Inside the room, Li Hong Yuan’s voice suddenly sounded.
The people outside, regardless whether it was that woman or the people under Li Hong Yuan, their eyes all penetrated with disbelief.
The woman soon after sprayed out a mouthful of blood, her body lightly swaying, nearly collapsing on the ground. She didn’t dare to believe. Clearly it had already succeeded, yet the male gu actually got thoroughly pressed back. Not only so, the male gu nearly died, to the extent that it affected the female gu in her body, making her suffer damage. ———–For the love-locking gu, the female gu wants the male gu’s absolute loyalty and complete love, yet need to offer up one’s life in exchange. That’s right, if the female gu dies, the male gu won’t be affected, but in contrast, if the male gu dies, then the female gu will perish.
As for the latter, they didn’t know what happened to actually let master produce this kind of mournful and despairing sound.
Gong mama persistently continued trying to wake Jing Wan, and Jing Wan also suddenly woke up, her eyes penetrating with extreme sorrow. Her tears uncontrollably slid down from the corner of her eyes, drop by drop, and she wasn’t able to come to her sense for a good while.
“Wangfei, wangfei…” Gong mama was very worried.
Jing Wan somewhat rigidly lifted her head, seeing the familiar yet also unfamiliar face before her, recognizing in hindsight who the other party was, “Mama, I heard Ah Yuan calling me.” Her tears were still falling one after another.
