55. Lost Soul
"The talisman paper is a dead thing. Sister Hongran is a living person. How can it become a talisman?"
Chu Yunqing asked, a little angry.
"I said that she was just breathing a sigh of relief, but this breath was in spirit." Gu He said: "Her person is actually dead, but she is unwilling to give up, so her spirit has not dissipated."
Seeing Chu Yunqing's frown, she shook her head and said, "You are not an alchemist. You don't understand even if I say it."
"Then can she still survive?" Chu Yunqing said carefully: "I mean, like before?"
Gu He looked at him and just smiled.
There are many alchemists in the world who are good at drawing talismans. There are all kinds of talisman papers circulating in the world. As long as you have money, you can collect them. But who would draw some truly top-secret mystical arts on talisman paper?
Talisman is not limited to a piece of yellow paper, wooden plaques, jade ornaments, stone carvings and animal bones. Talisman can be drawn on these, and the same is true for the 'formation' in mysticism.
However, people were used to set up the formation, but the people were not drawn with talismans. In other words, the talismans could not be integrated into the flesh and blood to form muscles.
Drawing talismans on people and turning them into a talisman is unacceptable. Even the master of Qingjing Sect does not have this method. And Qingjing Sect has not researched in this direction.
But unfortunately, Gu He is a bit smart.
Yan Hongran was not the first person she drew a talisman on, it was just the first successful talisman.
Gu He's thoughts were a bit scattered, and there was no sadness at all like Chu Yunqing's.
Because to her, Yan Hongran was just a chance encounter, just an interesting person in the journey of life.
At most, it was just a sigh, but it didn't make her express too much emotion.
Chu Yunqing looked at the silent person, feeling sadness well up in his heart, making him feel even more uncomfortable.
"I thought you could save her." He said, "I am also a coward. I should fight An Qinghe desperately, maybe I can get the antidote."
Gu He looked at him and laughed silently, as if he was mocking, but Chu Yunqing didn't see it.
"I'm sorry for Sister Hongran, and I won't let you abuse her." Chu Yunqing took a deep breath and wiped the corners of his eyes.
"What do you mean?" Gu He frowned.
"When a person dies, he will be buried in peace." Chu Yunqing said.
Gu He laughed angrily, "Do you know how much effort I put in?"
Chu Yunqing shook his head and stood up despite the pain.
"You can't take her away." Gu He said every word.
Chu Yunqing went to open the cell door and found that the cell door was unlocked.
"If you move again, I will kill you." Gu He said calmly.
At this time, her face was not as easy-going as before, but instead showed seriousness and clear murderous intent.
Chu Yunqing said: "I thought you could save her, so I brought her here. I will reward you for your efforts, but since you failed to save her, I will take her away."
"Heh." Gu He smiled, "I don't agree!"
Chu Yunqing said nothing, but under the dim light of the torch, there was a suppressed ferocity on his pale face.
"That's the truth!" he said.
Gu He was silent for a moment and said, "How did you go about the investigation you were asked to investigate?"
Chu Yunqing then said what he said to Jin Yiwei again.
"If you find out what is in the valley, I will give it to you." Gu He said.
Chu Yunqing shook his head, "You can check it yourself."
"I can't show up." Gu He said.
"Are you afraid of Jin Yiwei?"
"You've seen them." Gu He suddenly said with a firm tone.
Chu Yunqing felt that these people from the city were really too smart.
Gu He nodded, "No wonder you are so confident. It seems that you have a deal with them. I am curious as to why they came to you."
Chu Yunqing said nothing.
"How many are there?" Gu He asked.
Chu Yunqing felt that he had seen through the other party's true face. The friends he thought were friends or close friends, or even the mystical skills given to him were just disguises for the other party to achieve their goals. Everything was just for profit.
Chu Yunqing took a deep breath and said: "One."
"One?" Gu He frowned, obviously not believing it.
However, she couldn't see anything from Chu Yunqing's face.
"I will inform you if there is any news." Chu Yunqing said, "No matter what, thank you for your help."
What he was talking about was what happened before, whether it was gifting each other with mystical skills or being sincere like a friend, even if this might just be his wishful thinking.
Gu He lowered his eyes, "Everyone just takes what they need, no need to worry about it."
Chu Yunqing nodded, turned and left.
Gu He looked at his back and suddenly sighed. She looked at Yan Hongran on the bed. This time, she gave up Chu Yunqing for him. She didn't know whether it was right or wrong.
But who can tell?
She knew that it was time for her to leave. The people in Jinyiwei got the news from Chu Yunqing, and they must be able to find out what happened in the valley.
But now, she has Yan Hongran's talisman, and her past experiments have finally been confirmed to be feasible. As for investigating the case, of course she doesn't care about it, because there are more important things at the moment.
"In the case of Prince Yong's Mansion, Jin Yiwei will be better off." She gritted her teeth and thought, wrapped Yan Hongdye in a thin quilt, hugged her and walked out.
Over there, Lao Caihuabu Zukong woke up at some point and blinked at her.
Gu He glanced at him, opened his red lips lightly, and struck the chain of the cell door with a white line.
With a snap, the chain broke and fell to the ground, and the cell door opened with a creak.
Fu Zukong opened his mouth wide and his whole body trembled with excitement.
"Do as I told you before." Gu He said.
"Definitely, definitely." Bu Zukong nodded repeatedly.
Gu He took a breath and walked out of the dungeon.
The night was as dark as ink, and she smelled the cold wind. She had only been underground for a few days, and although she was calm, she couldn't help but feel a sense of distance in her heart.
Without any further emotion or pause, she hugged Yan Hongran and walked straight out of the hall, quickly disappearing down the long street.
People on duty such as Ali were completely unaware of this.
…
Chu Yunqing walked aimlessly on the street, the more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became, and the self-blame continued like a tide.
His footsteps suddenly stopped, his mind whirled with thoughts, and he was bright for a moment. For no reason, he hurried back, his face ugly.
She was really careless. Since Gu He had exposed his true face in front of her and learned the news about Prince Yong's Mansion and Jin Yiwei from her, she naturally had no need to stay in the dungeon anymore.
Therefore, the best possibility is to leave the dungeon and leave with the 'talisman' she drew.
Chu Yunqing hurriedly returned to the entrance of the hall and went to the dungeon. He found that no one was there, and he was let go even if he didn't leave.
After coming out, I saw the dungeon guard who was coming this way.
Smelling the smell of alcohol on this man's body, Chu Yunqing shook his head and walked out dejectedly, back to the street.
He actually understood in his heart that if Gu He really wanted to leave, how could people like Ali find out.
However, this feeling of powerlessness makes people feel too lost and deeply uncomfortable.
