Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

With the previous experience, everyone became suspicious of the bulging envelope. Xue Lince opened the letter, and found Master's vigorous handwriting on the letter paper, which was nothing unusual, except that there was a thin porcelain bottle in the envelope.

The bottle was only the size of a thumb, and the mouth of the bottle was tightly sealed. The fine porcelain was white, round and smooth, without any patterns around it, but it was a fine porcelain.

"What is this?"

Ke Ran leaned over, took out the bottle, and read the letter paper again.

The letter only said that there was a health elixir for promoting body fluids and quenching thirst. The Zhao family had made a lot of them in the hot weather recently, fearing that the appetites of the people in Yuedong would lose their appetite and their hearts would be full of fire, so they sent it along with the letter.

"Master Zhao's house is so busy that he is still worried about whether we will be able to eat."

Ke Ran held the bottle with a smile on her face, and brought the mouth of the bottle up to her nose and sniffed it. It was strange, there was no bitter taste of medicinal materials, and no aroma of medicinal food. Could it be that it was sealed too tightly?

The three heads got together, and Ke Ran opened the tightly sealed bottle in doubt. Suddenly, a stench rushed to his face, choking people so much that they couldn't open their eyes, and the rustling sound like eating mulberry leaves was endless.

They were startled, but before they could react, they saw several wriggling, disgusting long worms quickly crawling out of the bottle mouth. Sensing the light, they lifted the front end one by one to look around.

It's Gu worms!
Ke Ran was startled, as if she had pinched a hot potato in her hand, she subconsciously threw it away, but fortunately, she avoided the risk of Gu worms piercing through the flesh and getting into the skin in time.

But when the porcelain vase fell to the ground, it shattered into tens of thousands of pieces with a "bang", and the broken porcelain splashed. A large pool of various Gu worms quickly wriggled and became active without restraint, and crawled in all directions to look for human flesh.

The surrounding maids screamed in shock and retreated one after another, and the courtyard immediately became a mess.

These Gu worms seem to have eyes to chase after people, so many lingering worms can be hidden in such a small porcelain vase, just looking at it makes people feel sick.

"Luo Yu!"

Seeing a Gu worm crawling towards Tang Luoyu quickly, Xue Lince raised his hand to block his wife behind him, picked up an iron fork from the side, and stabbed the back half of the long worm accurately.

The worm immediately let out a disgusting cry of "chirp", a mass of black sticky substance flowed out from the wound, struggled left and right, tore itself in two, and then it was able to continue chasing people.

With an idea, Tang Luoyu quickly ran to the mouth of the well to bring a bucket of water, and rushed down towards the wriggling Gu worms. The ground was wet and slippery, and the crawling speed of the Gu worms dropped sharply, giving everyone a moment to breathe.

"It's Epilepsy Gu!" Ke Ran stood on a high place with a shovel and shouted at everyone, "Hurry up and get the lime! Get rid of them all before they crawl out of the hospital!"

The maids huddled together, like frightened chicks, and then they stumbled towards the kitchen after hearing Ke Ran say that lime could kill insects.

Yuedong's mansion always had lime insecticides on hand, but they didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.

Tang Luoyu and Xue Lince were not idle either, they went to fetch water to splash the whole yard wet, and drove all the Gu worms together, the worms entangled like tree roots wriggled and climbed on the ground full of water, It makes the scalp tingle.

Soon, the maids brought the lime, and the Gu worms just happened to gather together, a ladleful of lime was thrown out, and a layer of choking smoke suddenly floated in the air.

When the lime came into contact with the water on the ground, it immediately released enough heat to boil the water. In an instant, the Gu worms were scalded and screamed strangely, rolling around in the yard, struggling and moving around, it was disgusting.

The maids covered their ears and continued to splash, and the Gu insects screamed louder, like thousands of babies' mouths squeaking and crying.

It wasn't until the screams gradually subsided that everyone slowly moved out of the shelter and poked their heads to look out.

The lime in the air slowly fell, and the vision became clear again. I saw the scalded Gu worms all over the ground, all covered with a thick layer of hoarfrost, as if wrapped in a cocoon. The lime is still making a "silk" sound with the water, which makes people's hearts jump.

With lingering fear, Ke Ran patted her chest and came down from the height with a shovel, "It's dangerous, this epilepsy eats raw meat the most. If the skin is drilled, we might be the ones lying on the ground today."

Tang Luoyu was a little worried, "What if there are still fish that slip through the net? It was so chaotic before, it is inevitable that some escaped."

"Don't worry," Ke Ran carried the shovel on his shoulders like a victor, "The epilepsy usually appears in groups, and if they run away alone, they won't live long, let alone dig into human flesh."

Hearing the word "drill", everyone got goosebumps again.

"Speaking of which," Xue Lince brought the topic back on track, "Isn't this letter from Master? How could there be Gu worms in this bottle?"

Tang Luoyu squeezed his fist bitterly, filled with righteous indignation, "It must be that people from Hongyang Road intercepted the letter halfway and replaced the medicine bottle, or Master Zhao didn't write the letter at all, and these despicable people imitated his handwriting to think Trick us into being fooled."

Xue Lince's eyes froze, if he didn't react quickly enough today, maybe everyone in Yuedong's mansion would really fall in this small courtyard.

Ke Ran was also very angry, and slapped the Gu insect corpses all over the ground with a shovel, "It's really deceiving! These despicable villains actually use such vicious methods!"

Cursing, scolding, this mess still needs to be cleaned up. Ke Ran first checked all the people present to see if there were any traces of being infested by Gu insects, and after confirming that there were no traces, he led everyone to pile up the corpses of the Gu insects and burn them.

When everyone was so busy that it was dark, suddenly a young servant came to report that the Taoist priest of Shenxiao Temple asked to see him.

The three of them were startled, guessing that the temple master also got the news of Hongyang Dao.

"What did I say?" Ke Ran curled her lips, and patted the lime on her hands twice, "The Hongyang Dao just sent us Gu worms, and the temple master got the news, indicating that these people must be lurking. Not leaving in Yuedong, it's really a coward."

Both Xue and Tang didn't open their mouths, they simply cleaned the dust off their bodies and went to greet the temple master together.

The temple master saw that the heads and faces of several people were covered with gray lime, and they were wearing long aprons, and their faces were slightly startled.

"Prince Daoist," Xue Lince didn't care about that much, "Please come inside, just now something happened in the house, and we are busy dealing with it, please don't take offense, Priest Daoist."

The temple master didn't care very much, he walked over in four directions, and when he entered the courtyard, he could smell a very strong smell of lime water, and when he looked again, he saw that everyone was spreading sulfur powder around a group of charred bug corpses.

He twitched his brows, he already understood the general idea.
