PNB Chapter 365 The discovery of the Sacred Gu shocked everyone.
Chapter 365 The discovery of the Sacred Gu shocked everyone.
Upon hearing this, Shanzi and the others paused in their steps and turned to look at her.
The smile on Xiaoman's face suddenly disappeared.
"Go home? Your brother Lan Xiang hasn't been found yet..."
Li Meng lowered her eyes, her voice as soft as a feather.
"There's no need to look anymore! I've been away for a long time this time, and my family must be worried about me."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and gently pressed it against Xiaoman's chest.
Then they began to chant a spell that was difficult for them to understand.
But only for a moment.
Li Meng suddenly opened her eyes wide, staring at Xiao Man in shock, her lips trembling as she couldn't speak.
Xiaoman was startled by her reaction.
He hurriedly asked, "Wh...what happened?"
Li Meng's fingers were still on Xiao Man's chest, the last syllable of the incantation dissipating into the air.
The shock on her face had not yet faded, and it turned into deep confusion.
"Why...why is the Abdominal-Gu I placed inside you gone?"
"what?"
Xiaoman shrank back like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, looking completely bewildered.
"No...it's gone? Are you sure? Could something have gone wrong?"
He remembered clearly that Li Meng had secretly planted this "abdomen-inducing Gu" in Gushu Village back then.
Although she rarely urged it afterward, she never took it back.
If Li Meng hadn't brought it up, he would have almost forgotten about it.
Li Meng did not answer, but simply closed her lips and recited the obscure incantation again.
This time, she chanted it exceptionally slowly, the energy at her fingertips undulating gently with the incantation, as if she were calling out to something.
A moment later, she opened her eyes, her confusion deepening: "There's no mistake, it's really gone."
She frowned and asked in confusion, "What's going on?"
How could the Gu that draws the abdomen away have disappeared without my guidance?
Or... it was devoured by a more powerful Gu worm, otherwise it would never have disappeared on its own..."
Xiaoman scratched her head, looking completely innocent: "I don't know either."
You haven't used it in so long, I thought... I thought you'd secretly taken it back a long time ago.
He had been hoping for Li Meng to take the Gu worm back from his body for a long time.
Li Meng didn't respond to his words, but instead looked him up and down with a serious expression.
"Do you feel anything wrong with your body?"
For example... a sudden fever, or tingling in the meridians?
"No."
Xiaoman stretched her arms and legs and patted her belly.
"For the past six months, I've been eating well and sleeping soundly."
Aside from being a little tired from visiting Gu Xuanchao these past three months, I don't feel unwell anywhere else.
"strangeness……"
Li Meng muttered to herself, her brows furrowed in worry.
The Gu that draws the abdomen in was planted by her own hands; it could not possibly have disappeared into thin air.
She hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Xiaoman: "Could I check it again?"
Xiao Manman nodded nonchalantly: "Okay, you can look it up yourself."
Li Meng then gently placed her palm on Xiao Man's navel.
That's exactly where the Gu worm usually stays.
She slowly channeled her vital energy, guiding it through her palm and carefully probing Xiaoman's body.
At first, she only felt that the Linglong Divine Skill internal energy flowing in Xiaoman's body was gentle yet resilient.
But when her vital energy probed into the vicinity of her dantian...
A strange warmth suddenly surged in, carrying a scent that was all too familiar to her.
"This is……"
Li Meng suddenly opened her eyes wide, and even gasped in shock before quickly withdrawing her hand.
She stared at Xiaoman in shock, as if she were meeting him for the first time.
Xiaoman was startled by her sudden reaction and her heart skipped a beat.
He was just about to ask her what was wrong.
Li Meng reached out her hand once again.
This time, she probed into his dantian with even more concentrated vital energy.
The warmth emanating from the Linglong Divine Skill's internal energy cultivated within Xiaoman's body reappeared, even more clearly than before.
However, this warmth was mixed with a faint but pure aura of Gu worms.
"This breath..."
Li Meng's pupils suddenly contracted, and a storm raged in her heart.
She thought to herself, "How could this be... How could there be the aura of the sacred Gu from the holy land in this young man's body?"
Those are Gu worms that only Miao holy maidens or heirs of sacred sites can raise.
Ordinary clansmen never even get to see him, how could a mere youth from the Central Plains possibly have…
Her vital energy lingered a little longer in her dantian during the Lesser Fullness period.
Xiaoman felt as if a small worm had crawled into her stomach, making her feel itchy and a little bloated.
He couldn't help but frown, and his face gradually became very uncomfortable.
Li Meng noticed his discomfort and quickly withdrew all her energy.
As her hand left, Xiaoman's discomfort slowly subsided.
Xiaoman rubbed her stomach, looking at Li Meng with a puzzled expression.
"What...did you put in my stomach just now? It felt weird."
Li Meng didn't answer, but just stared at him, her gaze so complex that Xiao Man couldn't understand it.
There was shock, elation, doubt, and a touch of unbelievable tenderness.
The other people in the room watched the two of them quietly.
Shi Zi opened his mouth as if he wanted to ask something, but Da Ya quietly pulled him back.
Xiaoman and Xiaoman looked into each other's eyes, and the air seemed to freeze.
Li Meng's eyes gradually reddened, and tears rolled down her cheeks like beads from a broken string.
She opened her mouth, her voice so hoarse it was almost inaudible, yet it reached everyone's ears clearly.
"Brother Lan Xiang..."
"what?"
Xiaoman was stunned.
He thought that Li Meng was crying because she missed Lan Xiang too much.
"Li Meng, don't cry. We...we will all help you find your brother Lan Xiang. Don't cry."
He thought Li Meng was feeling sentimental because she couldn't find anyone.
But before he could finish speaking, Li Meng suddenly took a step forward and threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly and bursting into tears.
"Brother Lanxiang! Meng'er has finally found you! Waaah... Meng'er has finally found you! Waaah..."
"!!!"
Xiaoman froze instantly, her arms hanging in mid-air, unsure where to put them, her face filled with a blank expression of "Who am I? Where am I?"
He could clearly feel Li Meng's tears wetting his clothes.
And she was trembling all over because she was crying so hard.
The room fell into a deathly silence; you could hear a pin drop.
Shi Zi opened his mouth wide, pointed at the two embracing, and couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
"This...this is..."
He turned to look at Shanzi, Xiaolie, Daya, and the others, his eyes filled with confusion as if asking, "Did you understand?"
Everyone was frowning and looking at the two of them thoughtfully.
Li Meng was still crying, calling out "Brother Lan Xiang" over and over again. Her voice was a mixture of grievance and joy, which made people's hearts ache.
Xiaoman felt increasingly stiff from being hugged so tightly that she finally couldn't help but turn her head and look at Daya for help.
"Sister Da Ya, this...I..."
