1428 Aunt Miaos Ident.i.ty

Chi Shuyan went upstairs to send food to Aunt Miaos room. Aunt Miao was indeed still awake, and she opened the door. Even in the room, she always had the little guy with her.

Chi Shuyan gave Aunt Miao the food and had her eat something to fill her stomach.

Because Chi Shuyan had helped the little guy out once before, and she had always been very friendly, Aunt Miao relaxed her guard and invited Chi Shuyan in with a very amiable face.

It was just that she wasnt in good health. She coughed from time to time, sometimes bad enough that it sounded like she was going to retch. Chi Shuyans eyes were filled with worry.

As if seeing the worry in her eyes, Aunt Miao smiled sincerely and said, Dont worry, its strange that Ive been able to live until now. For the time being cough cough, I wont die. I dont want to die either. I still have my son!

At the mention of the child, Aunt Miaos gentle eyes fell on the muddle-headed and listless little guy.

Chi Shuyans heart softened in a rare moment. After thinking for a bit, she made an exception and took out a bottle of Nourishment Pills from her Cosmos Ring. She handed them over and said, Take one every day. Although it cant cure you immediately, itll relieve your condition by more than half! After a pause, she narrowed her eyes and continued, As for your illness, it looks like you were seriously injured before. Your internal injuries were never treated, and this has dragged on for at least 40 to 50 years; the longer it dragged on, the worse it became.

Aunt Miao was now certain that the young lady in front of her was genuinely capable and extraordinary. She wasnt surprised that Chi Shuyan could see her internal injuries at a glance, or even how long it had been.

She didnt refuse the bottle of Nourishment Pills, and took one on the spot. She swallowed the Nourishment Pill and it quickly melted into wisps of spiritual energy. It had to be pointed out that ordinary people rarely had direct contact with spiritual energy. Although there wasnt much spiritual energy in the Nourishment Pill, the medicinal effects were still very good for the body, and the body could also absorb this spiritual energy.

So, as soon as Aunt Miao took one, her body turned warm, and she immediately felt better. At least, the itch in her throat eased a little, and didnt make her cough again.

After personally experiencing the wonders of the Nourishment Pill, Aunt Miao looked at Chi Shuyan in surprise. At the same time, there was some elation in her eyes as she blurted out, This bottle you gave me is?

Nourishment Pills! Chi Shuyan didnt hide it and told her the truth. She even mentioned the effects of the Nourishment Pill. Aunt Miao was especially surprised when she heard this. She also knew that this thing was very rare and valuable. She didnt expect the young lady in front of her to be so generous. It was precisely because of this that Aunt Miao looked at the young lady in front of her with even more grat.i.tude.

Wait! Aunt Miao suddenly said.

She took out an exquisite, square red sandalwood box from her pocket. Aunt Miao handed it to Chi Shuyan without hesitation. As the saying goes, the deserving should get a reward. This is the only thing I can take out now that has some value. Take it!

Chi Shuyan had always been very curious about Aunt Miaos ident.i.ty, and was curious about the gift.

She looked at the wooden box and wondered what was inside. Aunt Miao seemed to read her mind and opened the box for her, only for Chi Shuyan to see a translucent silver bug that was very similar to a silkworm; the difference was that there were a few silver scales on this bugs tail. Not only was it not ugly, it was also a little cute.

Chi Shuyans left eyelid twitched when she saw this little thing. Of course, she vaguely felt that this little bug was probably something out of the ordinary. Thinking of Aunt Miaos surname, she couldnt help but take a guess.

Without waiting for her to guess, Aunt Miao revealed, Thats right. My surname is Miao, and Im from one of the few families that is good at raising the Gu worm. My father devoted his life to raising Gu in hopes of breeding the most perfect and flawless Gu King. For this, not only did he refine himself into a living host, he did the same to me. Unfortunately, breeding a Gu King is too difficult and results in nine out of ten deaths. I naturally didnt want to be a living host for the rest of my life, forever under his control and my life in his hands.

At this point, there was a hint of nostalgia in Aunt Miaos eyes, but she continued, I worked so hard to escape the Miao family, but I couldnt escape my fate. This little thing is the Gu King I painstakingly bred and nurtured. Its all thanks to this little thing that Ive been able to live until now. I hope you can use this thing in the future!

Although Chi Shuyan had guessed 70 to 80% of it, she was still alarmed when Aunt Miao confessed that this thing was an extremely rare Gu King.

This thing was really a treasure. Although Chi Shuyan hadnt dabbled in raising Gu, she had learned from her master in her past life how rare and difficult it was to nurture a Gu King. The person raising a Gu had to refine themselves into a host and feed this thing with their own blood. It wasnt easy to nurture a Gu until it became a Gu King; the probability was one in a million.

It was precisely because of this that Chi Shuyan knew how valuable this thing was. For a moment, she didnt dare accept it.

Chi Shuyan refused without thinking. However, Aunt Miao was very firm, so Chi Shuyan could only accept it in the end. At the same time, she decided to refine a few more bottles of Nourishment Pills as well as the pills which the little guy would need to keep his body solid.

In terms of value, her medicinal pills were naturally far more valuable than this Gu King. However, Chi Shuyan was very talented in medicinal pills. It wasnt difficult to refine pills, so she didnt lack them. On the other hand, Gu worms were hard to come by. The rarer something was, the more valuable it was. This Gu King was naturally worth the price.

Seeing Chi Shuyan accept the box, Aunt Miao heaved a sigh of relief and got straight to the point. Okay, is there anything else you want to ask me now?
