Chapter 11: Empty the body

Yu Xingyou was startled by the sound and almost drew out his mahogany sword and struck at him, but he calmed down again after seeing the speaker clearly.

While changing her shoes, she said: "Why don't you turn on the lights at home? I thought there was no one."

Gu Mucang stood up from the sofa and looked at Yu Xingyou deeply.

He didn't know what was going on. He could obviously rest in the room, but when he learned that Yu Xingyou didn't come back after being out for a day, he felt a little worried.

If nothing else, in Gu Mucang's heart, Yu Xingyou went down the mountain because of him, and in his heart, Yu Xingyou was just a simple girl with no social experience.

The capital city is so big and there are so many bad people. If something happens, he doesn't know how to explain to the other party's master.

Seeing that Gu Mucang didn't speak, Yu Xingyou walked closer and looked at him, "Huh? Why don't you speak? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Saying that, Yu Xingyou easily put his hand on Gu Mucang's wrist.

The weather at the end of February was slightly cool, but the girl's hands were warm.

Gu Mucang looked at the girl who only reached his shoulders, with a serious face, and took his pulse.

His breathing was a little heavy, and he exhaled slightly, and then the smell of the girl came, a faint scent of sandalwood, and a fishy smell...

"Where have you been today?" Gu Mucang asked subconsciously.

He regretted it as soon as he said it.

He is nothing like her, and apart from the marriage certificate without a photo, they don't even have any relationship.

She would definitely be bored if he asked this, and he especially didn't like others asking him things.

Gu Mucang originally thought that Yu Xingyou would not answer, or would tell him to leave her alone.

However, neither of these situations happened. When Gu Mucang asked, Yu Xingyou happily told what happened today.

Gu Mucang listened quietly.

After Yu Xingyou finished speaking, she saw that Gu Mucang was a little dazed, and she realized that this was not on the mountain.

She pulled her hand back and apologized: "I'm sorry, I thought we were on the mountain, and you probably didn't like hearing these things." After all, no one likes strangers nagging to them.

Because the senior brothers and sisters came down early, she and the master were the only ones on the mountain. No one talked, so she could only talk to the master, so she made a habit of discussing everything that happened every day with the master.

Yu Xingyou silently decided in his heart that he was at the foot of the mountain now, so he should pay attention in the future.

She changed the subject, "Besides the curse, there is nothing wrong with your body, but you still need to get more rest."

As she said that, she took out a calming talisman and gave it to him, "I see that you are not sleeping very well. It will be better if you put this talisman under your pillow."

Gu Mucang took it and said in a deep voice: "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Yu Xingyou waved his hand.

In an instant, the scene became deserted again. Gu Mucang was not a talkative person.

Yu Xingyou looked for a topic and asked: "Grandpa Gu, why haven't they come back yet? And where is the uncle housekeeper from yesterday?"

"They don't usually live here. I'm the only one here. The housekeeper, cook, and others only come during the day. I don't like to keep people around at night." Gu Mucang pursed his lips and said.

In fact, that was before. Ever since he started to faint at every turn, Gu Yi forcefully asked people to live here and watch him.

But now that Yu Xingyou is here, Gu Yi takes the person away again.

"Oh." Yu Xingyou didn't think much and yawned, "Then I'll go to bed first. If you need anything, call me."

"Yeah." Gu Mucang nodded.

Just when Yu Xingyou was about to go upstairs, Gu Mucang suddenly said: "I was so absorbed in listening just now that I didn't reply. What you said was very exciting and I enjoyed listening to it."

Yu Xingyou stopped, turned around and smiled, "Then I'll see if there's any follow-up tomorrow, and I'll tell you more."

"Um."

"Good night." Yu Xingyou waved his hand, feeling happy. Gu Mucang's words just now were very helpful to her.

"Good night."

Gu Mucang replied, watching her walking up the stairs easily, he didn't even notice that the corners of his mouth were also slightly raised.

That night, when sleeping, Gu Mucang placed the talisman given by Yu Xingyou under his pillow.

Although he didn't expect much, after all, the problem had been with him for many years, so how could he say it didn't exist?

Since that incident, except when he was in a coma and slept normally, he had never really fallen asleep. Every time he woke up in a nightmare.

Thinking like this, Gu Mucang lay down on the bed with some difficulty. He thought he would have another whole night of insomnia. Unexpectedly, he felt a little tired after closing his eyes for a while, and then fell asleep in a daze.

After a dreamless night, Gu Mucang opened his eyes again. He felt refreshed and it was already bright outside the window.

Gu Mucang looked around in disbelief. He actually slept until dawn!

He quickly took out the talisman paper under his pillow. It was still the same talisman paper, but the cinnabar on it was lighter than last night.

Gu Mucang really believed it now, this talisman paper was really useful!

Downstairs, Yu Xingyou was eating breakfast happily, praising a few words from time to time, "Aunt Lin, your triangular buns are so delicious!"

Apart from noodles and rice, she had never eaten these novel things before in the mountains.

Aunt Lin, who was cooking, said with a smile: "You can eat more if you like! Tomorrow Auntie will give you something else, so that you don't have the same breakfast for a month!" She said and brought Yu Xingyou another sandwich with added...

A lot of stuff.

Yu Xingyou’s eyes are brighter, and they won’t look the same in a month!

"Thank you Aunt Lin!"

"You're welcome, you're welcome, please eat slowly." The more Aunt Lin looked at Yu Xingyou, the more she liked him.

When Gu Mucang went downstairs, he happened to see this friendly scene. He glanced at the sandwich in the little girl's hand. It was obviously just an ordinary thing. How could the little girl be so happy?

Yu Xingyou happened to see him, waved to him, and asked with a smile: "Did you sleep well last night?"

"Yeah." Gu Mucang came over and sat down, and took a bite of the sandwich. It still tasted the same as before, but for some reason, he felt that today's sandwich was the most delicious.

Yu Xingyou finished the sandwich in one bite, clapped his hands, took a sip of milk, and said, "The Calming Talisman can be used for seven days. After seven days, the cinnabar on the paper is gone, and you can come back to me."

"good."

After breakfast, Yu Xingyou gave Gu Mucang another piece of talisman water to drink, extending his life for another day.

Thinking that things in the company still needed to be dealt with, Gu Mucang asked: "Is there any way to maintain normalcy for a longer time?"

He now has to drink Talisman water every day, and it can only last until eight o'clock the next night. This is too restrictive.

Yu Xingyou replied: "Yes, there is, but the damage to your body is too great. You were hollowed out by the formation of the person behind you. Now your soul and fortune are unstable. This is the safest method."

What does it mean to have your body hollowed out!

Gu Mucang frowned slightly when he heard this, but he also knew that he couldn't be too impatient. After all, the other party had been planning this for so many years, so it couldn't be solved casually.

"Do you want to go out?" Yu Xingyou couldn't help asking when he saw his brows furrowed.

Gu Mucang replied: "The company has something to do, and I have to deal with it personally."

"Oh." Yu Xingyou understood. She flicked her ponytail and said, "Wait for me."
