You are a rare plant, the You Zi Gu Chong Hua, found in Southeast Asia and some parts of Yunnan. Although it grows in the wild jungles, it is rarely seen. Many explorers in the rainforests of Southeast Asia get lost, and this is often related to the You Zi Gu Chong Hua. Its unique fragrance can affect the nerves, causing confusion and disorientation.
However, the true power of the You Zi Gu Chong Hua lies in a Gu worm hidden within its flower bud! Speaking of Gu worms, we must mention the three major evil arts of Southeast Asia: Sorcery, Gu cultivation, and Poisoning. Gu cultivation itself has many varieties, with the Miao, Yi, and Zhuang ethnic groups of China's Yunnan province being famous for their Gu practices.
We often hear stories of Miao girls casting Gu on men. If a man deceives a girl, the Gu poison in his body will cause him to die. However, the most common Gu cultivation in the Miao culture involves raising the "Five Poisons" – namely, scorpions, venomous snakes, centipedes, geckos, and toads. The Five Poisons are placed together to fight each other, and only the one that survives is called a Gu poison!
In reality, there are many types of Gu cultivation, especially in Southeast Asian countries where sorcerers use various animals and plants for their Gu practices. The You Zi Gu Chong Hua is precisely used by sorcerers in Southeast Asia. They introduce the small worms from the flower buds into the human body, feeding them with the flower buds daily. The worms then grow within the human uterus. Once the Gu worms reach a certain stage, they will destroy the internal organs and eventually crawl out of the body.
This is the terrifying power of the You Zi Gu Chong Hua. Now, Wan Yunting saw such a You Zi Gu Chong Hua on the mountainside behind Gao Yachin's villa, and the footprints on the ground indicated that people frequently came here!
"It seems someone is targeting the Gao family!"
Wan Yunting looked up, his sharp gaze sweeping across the surrounding trees. He knew this You Zi Gu Chong Hua was planted here to cast a Gu on Gao Yachin. This meant that Gao Yachin was not suffering from an illness, but was afflicted by the Gu worm of the You Zi Gu Chong Hua!
However, Wan Yunting was very puzzled as to who was targeting the Gao family. Now that he knew Gao Yachin was afflicted by the Gu cultivation of the You Zi Gu Chong Hua, Wan Yunting naturally had a way to cure her. But he was now in a dilemma. Logically, if his father was indeed killed by Gao Zhe, then he and the Gao family were enemies, so Wan Yunting felt there was no need to help Gao Yachin remove the Gu worm from her body!
But he quickly dismissed these thoughts, as his purpose for coming here was to inquire about Gao Zhe's current situation through the Gao family. Therefore, he really needed to cure Gao Yachin. Having made up his mind, Wan Yunting took off his shirt, wrapped the You Zi Gu Chong Hua from the ground with it, and pulled it out by the roots. He needed to use the roots of the You Zi Gu Chong Hua as medicine to treat the residual toxins in Gao Yachin's body.
After being unearthed, the You Zi Gu Chong Hua seemed to lose its life. Its flowers instantly turned dark purple and withered, and the peculiar fragrance gradually dissipated. Wan Yunting breathed a sigh of relief and stood up to look around again. After confirming that no one was there, he turned and walked back.
Little did he know, on the top of the back mountain, on a tall tree, a short, dark-skinned middle-aged man, clearly from Southeast Asia, was watching through binoculars. He became furious and cursed in Thai as he saw Wan Yunting uproot the You Zi Gu Chong Hua.
"Doctor Wan, you're back..."
Gu Luotang, Qi Miaomiao, and Gao Jiaming, who had retreated, finally relaxed their tense nerves after Wan Yunting uprooted the You Zi Gu Chong Hua and the strange fragrance disappeared. Sima Bochen, who was lying on the ground, slowly woke up, groaning that his head hurt.
"Mm."
Wan Yunting ignored him, feeling relieved to see that Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao were fine. Gao Jiaming saw the You Zi Gu Chong Hua, now purple-black, wrapped in his clothes. "What is this?"
Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao also looked curiously at the You Zi Gu Chong Hua in Wan Yunting's hand. He then said, "This is a rare You Zi Gu Chong Hua from Southeast Asia. The strange fragrance that was affecting our central nervous system earlier was from this flower."
"You Zi Gu Chong Hua? How have I never heard of it?" Gu Luotang raised her eyebrows, looking curiously at the You Zi Gu Chong Hua in Wan Yunting's hand. She didn't expect its strange fragrance to be so potent.
"How can there be such a thing growing on this back mountain?" Gao Jiaming turned to look at the trees in the back mountain. Wan Yunting, however, said, "This You Zi Gu Chong Hua is not naturally grown!"
These words made Gao Jiaming's expression change drastically. "You mean someone deliberately planted it secretly on this back mountain?"
Wan Yunting nodded and said, "Moreover, this You Zi Gu Chong Hua is the most poisonous flower for casting Gu. Your sister has been afflicted by a Gu worm, which is why she has become like this!"
"What did you say, Gu worm?" Gao Jiaming's eyes widened in shock as he looked at Wan Yunting. Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao were astonished. In this digital age, stories of casting Gu are all over the internet. However, ordinary people believe that casting Gu is just a scare tactic and do not believe in Gu cultivation.
"Oh my god, so the thing in her stomach is... is a worm...?" Thinking about the wriggling thing she saw in Gao Yachin's stomach earlier, Qi Miaomiao was terrified, her face pale with horror, and goosebumps covered her body.
Gao Jiaming looked stunned, his face pale. Wan Yunting said, "Clearly, Mr. Gao, someone is trying to harm your sister!"
"Damn it, who is so vicious to harm my sister in this way?" Gao Jiaming was filled with anger. This was a monstrous way to harm someone.
"You'll have to ask your Gao family about that." Wan Yunting said, "The one who cast the Gu worm on your sister must be a sorcerer. I didn't find his trace inside, but there were footprints left behind. You can call the police and have them collect the footprints on the ground for investigation."
"Okay, I'll call the police now." Gao Jiaming said emotionally. He immediately took out his phone and called his police friend. He wished he could catch the scoundrel who cast the Gu worm on his sister with his own hands and tear him to pieces.
"Let's go back first." Seeing this, Wan Yunting said to Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao. Gao Jiaming followed, still on the phone with his police friend, explaining the situation. As for Sima Bochen and his female assistant, although they were confused and didn't ask any questions, they just wanted to leave this ghost place.
"Doctor Wan, do you have a way to cure this Gu worm?" Gu Luotang asked, following Wan Yunting.
"Yes, I can use acupuncture to expel the Gu worm from her body, and then use the root of this You Zi Gu Chong Hua as medicine to remove the residual Gu poison from her body." Wan Yunting nodded.
After finishing his call, Gao Jiaming was very excited when he heard that he could cure his sister. "Doctor Wan, as long as you can cure my sister, our Gao family will satisfy whatever you want." Wan Yunting turned to him and smiled without speaking.
When they returned to the villa, Gao Zhixiong, who was standing at the entrance, clearly changed his expression when he saw the You Zi Gu Chong Hua wrapped in clothes in Wan Yunting's hand! This scene was caught by Wan Yunting, which immediately piqued his interest!
