Thinking of what he had seen before, Heka couldn’t help but feel his scalp tingle. Those things were simply too terrifying…
“The outcome of every technique is different.” Heka swallowed hard and retracted his arm as he told Lin Suisui in detail how terrifying the tame head technique in his body was.
“Some turned into pools of blood, while others watched as countless worms grew in their bodies and were bitten to death…
Someone once wondered if the tame head technique was hidden in this mark, so they wanted to cut off his arm with a knife…” At this point, Heka paused and raised his hand to wipe his face. Then, he smiled bitterly and said, “In the end, the tame head technique, which was originally inactive, suddenly acted up and swallowed him…”
“Previously, I helped Consort Molcvin remove the tame head technique that Nina had planted on her. However, perhaps because the tame head technique had just been planted, it was a little easier to remove it.”
As Lin Suisui spoke, she gestured for Bai Guo, who was standing at the side, to get her medicine box. Then, she took out a porcelain bottle. “I know some Gu techniques. The method to remove the tame head technique was discovered according to the Gu techniques.
Like Gu techniques, the tame head technique requires a driving force to drive the tame head technique or Gu worm sleeping in your body.” Lin Suisui handed the porcelain bottle to Bai Guo and asked her to hand it to Heka. “This is the child Gu of the bee Gu. Its reaction is very light. The reason I want you to take it is to find out the whereabouts of the tame head technique in your body.”
Without hesitation, Heka took the porcelain bottle from Bai Guo, opened it, poured out a small black pill, then swallowed it.
“Aren’t you worried that there’s something wrong with this thing?” Seeing that Heka swallowed the pill without asking further, Lin Suisui couldn’t help but tease him.
“My life is in danger anyway.” Heka chuckled as he replied readily, “Anyway, in the eyes of the Siamese, I’m already a traitor!
If the higher-ups found out, I’ll definitely be dead meat.
Therefore, there’s nothing worse than the current situation. Besides, you said before that you wanted to help me get rid of the black magic. There’s no need for me to suspect you.”
Lin Suisui nodded. She was very happy about Heka’s cooperation, so she asked him some more questions about the tame head technique. Then, she instructed him to look for her in time if anything happened to his body.
Heka would come over every day to tell Lin Suisui about the tame head technique. At the same time, he would show Lin Suisui the tame head technique he had mastered.
Seven to eight days later, they finally arrived at the border between the northern barbarians and the empire. At their current speed, they would be able to return to Cloud Mountain City in about three to four days.
Although they had left for a long time, someone in Cloud Mountain City would send a message to them from time to time, so they were well-informed about the matters in the city.
Everything else was easy to deal with, except for the Fourth Prince, who was still in Cloud Mountain City.
“He was probably frightened by the robbers on the way. Now, he’s unwilling to go back to the capital alone.”
Pei Qian was also very helpless about this. Therefore, in order to send the Fourth Prince away, the most direct way was for him to return to the capital personally.
“There’s another thing. Princess Ning Fu is pregnant.” Perhaps because of the mention of the Fourth Prince, Pei Qian also remembered this matter that he had neglected.
The Fourth Prince was still living in the ministry, so he naturally had to continue interacting with Princess Ning Fu.
Princess Ning Fu had no other way out now, so it was naturally impossible for her to let go of the Fourth Prince. Therefore, it wasn’t surprising that she was pregnant.
“Isn’t that good? Not only will the Fourth Prince be rewarded, but he will also bring back a concubine with an extraordinary status. Won’t the Consort faint from joy?”
Lu Ze was very calm about this matter. He was even in the mood to tease Pei Qian.
Pei Qian was already used to Lu Ze’s sarcasm, so he didn’t say anything. He changed the topic and continued to discuss the matters in Cloud Mountain City.
Lin Suisui and the others returned to Cloud Mountain City very quietly.
There was no fanfare and they kept a low profile. When they returned home, it was already dawn. Therefore, after packing up, they settled down.
However, since they were back, staying idle was a sort of luxury.
The next morning, things went according to plan.
The person who came this time was Mrs. Zuo, who served Duke Huai Yang’s mother. This time, she was no longer as cold to them as before…
First, she gave them all kinds of herbs and gifts. Then, she praised Lin Suisuiprofusely. Finally, she revealed why she was here.
The princess’s pregnancy wasn’t stable, so she wanted to ask Lin Suisui to go over and take a look.
“It’s not like there aren’t other doctors in Cloud Mountain City. Why didn’t the old consort invite those doctors over?” Bai Guo frowned slightly and she instinctively wanted to reject her.
“The old consort has been worried sick these days. Not to mention the doctors in Cloud Mountain City, all the famous doctors around the area have been invited over to take a look.”
Mrs. Zuo couldn’t help but sigh. As long as there was any other solution, there was no need for them to beg her so humbly.
“In that case, even if she goes over, she might not be able to help.” Bai Guo smiled. From Mrs. Zuo’s expression, she could tell that Duke Huai Yang’s ministry was in a dire situation.
However, the more this was the case, the more she didn’t let down her guard. She smiled calmly as she asked them to leave. “Madam still has some trivial matters to attend to now, so it’s not convenient for her to see guests.
“How about this? I’ll report your difficulties to Madam. If she is willing, I’ll immediately send a letter to the ministry. I won’t keep the old consort waiting.”
Mrs. Zuo didn’t pester her. She nodded before getting up and leaving reluctantly.
After sending Mrs. Zuo off, Bai Guo got up and returned to the inner residence. She told Lin Suisui everything that had just happened outside before saying, “From what Mrs. Zuo said, the pregnant princess seems to be in a very bad
state..”
