Chapter 58: The Once of Bai Chi
On the second day, Mu Shiyu took Yuan Yi to Jilefang and went directly to the fifth floor.
Nowadays, she rarely comes to Ji Lefang. If anything happens, she will ask Yuan Yi to pass on the news and then meet her at Quanyong Building.
"Second Miss, didn't you just bring the medicinal materials back yesterday? Why?
Are you coming again today?" Bai Chi took a sip of the wine in the white jade cup with a look of enjoyment on his face.
"All of you, please step aside first." Mu Shiyu waved her hand, telling Yuan Yi and Bai Chi's bodyguards to step back.
After they retreated, Mu Shiyu stretched out her hands and asked, "Is there anything that can help my wounds heal faster?"
Her frown showed that she needed medicine to heal the wound quickly.
Bai Chi looked at the dense wounds and naturally knew where and how they came from.
Bai Chi shook his head, and his silver hair fell from behind to his chest, "No."
The plain voice struck Mu Shiyu's heart like a heavy hammer.
"When will Jun Rong arrive?" Lin Junrong wanted to give Mu Shiyu a surprise, so naturally he would not tell her.
But Bai Chi is different, he knows it.
"We should be able to arrive tomorrow morning." Bai Chi put down the wine glass in his hand, his eyes remaining on Mu Shiyu's battered hands.
"Jilefang has a pair of gloves made of ice silk, but the ice silk is so cold that your hands may not be able to bear it." Bai Chi's eyes were filled with confusion, but he finally said it.
"Give it to me!" Mu Shiyu asked without any hesitation.
"After using that glove, how will you refine Gu in the future?" Bai Chi suddenly regretted his impulsive revelation about the Ice Silkworm Gloves.
"I'll peel off a pair for you." It seems that peeling off a person's hands is a common occurrence.
"Your hands still have to be used for refining Gu. They must not be damaged." Bai Chi rarely showed expressions on his face, but he was also frowning now.
"No, the smell of corpses will make me faint." Mu Shiyu shook her head and refused.
"Who told you it was peeled off a dead person's hand?" Bai Chi retorted.
"Skinning a dead person is easy to break and difficult to peel. Living people have warmth, so peeling the skin will be easier." His calm tone should be commonplace.
Upon hearing this, Mu Shiyu's pupils instantly dilated several times.
"I would rather have my hands broken than the human skin gloves you peeled off." Mu Shiyu firmly refused.
This is too cruel, peeling off the skin from a living person, how much pain that person will have to endure!
"Ice silkworm gloves are easy to expose and have no temperature. Will you, Prince Li, not be able to tell through it?" Bai Chi persisted and refused to hand it over.
"Bai Chi, if you don't agree, you will suffer the poison yourself this month! Don't come and beg me!" Mu Shiyu threatened.
"I would rather suffer it myself than have your hand become crippled! If your hand is crippled, how can you refine the Gu King for me and cure all my poisons!" Bai Chi refused to let go.
"Bai Chi, please give me the Ice Silkworm Gloves. My hands will not become useless. Trust me!" Mu Shiyu said pleadingly.
She couldn't let Lin Junrong worry, nor could she let Lin Junrong and Bai Chi become more discordant because of this incident.
"I'm going to plead guilty to King Li. I just need to wait for him to defeat Nanjiang and remove all the poison from me, and then I will give him the Paradise House."
Bai Chi looked like he was ready to die. For him to face such a difficult person as King Li was really more uncomfortable than death.
"If Jun Rong finds out about this, you will never be able to get rid of the poisonous poison in your lifetime!" Mu Shiyu said bluntly.
Since Bai Chi became a sinner, he has been a trial subject for the Gu Masters in Southern Xinjiang since he was a child.
He became a medicine man. He grew up soaking in medicine jars since he was a child. The food he ate and the water he drank were all different medicines.
He couldn't remember when he began to plant various kinds of poisons in his body every day.
It may be a new Gu under research, or it may be a semi-finished Gu, or even dead Gu worms will be planted in his body. It is also said openly that this is feed for new Gu.
Because there are all kinds of rare medicinal materials in his body, the poisonous insects are particularly active in his body. But the consequence of the poisonous insects being active is that he will suffer inhuman pain.
There are countless Gu worms in his body, and he cannot die easily. However, the Gu masters in southern Xinjiang finally obtained such a fresh new body of a medicine man and a poison man, and they became even more energetic in their research.
The city was where Bai Chi was imprisoned. His status as a sin slave made many people like to see him being tortured.
There will be people who will carve words on him and throw stones at him.
But this is not the scariest thing. The scariest thing is that in the middle of the night, there are always homeless people who take a fancy to his delicate body.
When he was eight years old, one day suddenly he had a high fever and bleeding from all his orifices.
A Gu Master laughed wildly because he had developed a new Gu, which was a kind of Gu that could spread plague.
However, it is this new Gu insect that has ushered in an unprecedented plague in southern Xinjiang.
As the first person to try this new poison, the virus also spread through the air.
On that day, the plague spread across southern Xinjiang.
Everyone was panicking because of the plague, and Bai Chi was left in a corner, unattended.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bai Chi finally escaped.
After escaping, it was not all smooth sailing. The medicinal materials he usually consumed had the effect of suppressing the poisonous insects.
But after he escaped, the medicine wore off, and all the poisonous insects began to bite back his muscles.
Bai Chi didn't know how he survived. When he woke up, he was floating on the water like a dead person.
He examined his body. His appearance, which had been damaged by abuse, had returned to its original state, and the muscles and veins in his body were somehow connected.
He happily climbed to the shore, but his hand was accidentally scratched by a stone. At this time, blood flowed out.
Unlike ordinary blood, which is scarlet, his blood is darker. And where his blood dripped, the grass withered instantly, the blood dried up immediately, and what was left were strips of tiny red and black Gu worms.
He was frightened by this scene and felt that he was a monster at this moment.
It might be more appropriate to describe him as a Gu insect wrapped in human skin.
He tried draining his own blood, but to no avail, because the poisonous insects in his body multiplied too quickly. His blood was not poison, but poisonous insects.
Moreover, because there were too many Gu insects, they devoured each other and mutated. His black hair turned into silver threads, and his eyes were red with blood.
Also, on the moonless day of every month, the poisonous insects in the body will eat each other again and mutate.
On this day, he felt the pain of peeling and cramping, the pain was worse than death. If possible, he really wanted to kill himself.
In addition, he will also have hallucinations, as if he has returned to southern Xinjiang. The Gu masters still keep poisoning him, pouring medicine into him every day, and the onlookers will hold knives on him.
Carve words and throw stones at him.
And, and... groups of homeless people...
Then, he established Jilefang.
No one knows how much he paid to establish Jilefang, or what he went through.
However, no matter how difficult it is, it can't compare to what he experienced in southern Xinjiang when he was a child.
He wants revenge and even wants to die!
From then on, he became the nameless Master of Jilefang.
Bai Chi fell silent at Mu Shiyu's words.
When Mu Shiyu stepped into Jilefang for the first time, Bai Chi felt a desire, a desire that could be described as kind.
