A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times

Chapter 85

Over the past few days, Sang Li had been deliberately keeping her distance from Gu Zhi.

Her sisters knew that Gu Zhi might have had a fiancée before he lost his memory, so they also felt that he should not have feelings for Sister Sang Li.

However, they were uncertain whether what Cai Na said was true or false.

But Sang Li said, "Regardless of whether it's true or false, keeping our distance now is the right thing to do. I don't want myself, Sang Li, to become the one who comes between others' relationships!"

Humph, she had never thought that when she, Sang Li, fell for someone, it would turn out to be this kind of situation.

Although she had no intention of being with Gu Zhi from the very beginning, now that she knew Gu Zhi had a fiancée, she still felt stifled in her heart.

Because of Sang Li’s aloofness, Gu Zhi was also in a bad mood.

He didn’t know what exactly he should do for his sister to accept him.

But he also worried that Cai Na really was his fiancée. At this moment, he suddenly wished to regain his memory and know whether Cai Na really was his fiancée. If she really was, then he must annul the engagement first.

That night, when everyone was about to close the shop and return to Four Beauties Pavilion, several men suddenly came into the shop.

"Gentlemen, sorry, the shop is closed for today,” Su Mo went up and said, “Please come back tomorrow."

The leader of the men paid no attention to Su Mo and swept his eyes around the room.

"We've come to find Gu Zhi. Unrelated people should not meddle too much!" the man said coldly.

Sang Li immediately sensed something wrong and went forward to ask, "May I ask who you are?"

"Naturally, we were sent by his family! He has been missing for many days and his family members are extremely anxious, ordering us to bring him back as soon as possible!"

Sang Li looked at Gu Zhi. Gu Zhi immediately said, "Sister, I'm not leaving!"

Sang Li hesitated. Now more and more people were coming to find Gu Zhi, and he really couldn't stay here any longer.

"Where are those two called Cai Na and Ku Li?"

Over the past few days, Sang Li still believed in Cai Na and Ku Li, but she didn't quite trust these few men in front of her now.

"They are waiting at the inn! Less nonsense and bring Gu Zhi with us!" Two men walked over, trying to pull Gu Zhi away.

"I'm not going!" Gu Zhi struggled. "Sister, save me! They are definitely not good people!"

Seeing this, Sang Li hurriedly took a step forward. "Wait a minute!"

"Mind your own business!"

With a wave of his hand, the man flung something out. Su Mo immediately rushed forward and turned Sang Li around in his arms.

What the man threw landed on the ground, giving Xiao Han and Xia Miaomiao a fright.

"Ahhhhh, bugs!" Xia Miaomiao immediately hugged Xiao Han. She was most afraid of bugs!

Seeing what was happening, Xiao Han immediately sprinkled some medicinal powder on the ground. The bug struggled for a few moments then stopped moving.

The man knitted his brows and said coldly, "Do not interfere unless you wish to die!"

Seeing this, Gu Zhi immediately said, "Do not hurt them! I’ll go with you!"

Although he didn’t want to leave, he didn’t want to get his sister and the others involved!

Gu Zhi was taken away by several men.

But Sang Li felt all along that something was wrong.

"Su Mo, can you come with me to follow them? Let's see if they really took Gu Zhi to Cai Na!" Sang Li said hurriedly.

"Okay, be careful, Xiao Han and Miaomiao!"

"Mm, you guys be careful too!"

Sang Li took out the soul-chasing arrow from a cabinet at the counter and left Four Beauties Pavilion with Su Mo.

Gu Zhi was led by several men into a pitch-black alley before they stopped.

"Who exactly are you?" Gu Zhi had a bad premonition that these men did not come to take him home at all!

"Hand over the bell!" the man said coldly.

Bell? Was it referring to the bell bracelet that was with Sister?

Gu Zhi's expression darkened. "I don't know what you're talking about!"

"You don't know?" The man walked up and suddenly slapped Gu Zhi's shoulder.

Gu Zhi staggered and fell to the ground, immediately spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Young tribal leader, since you’ve left the Miao ethnicity, and you’ve lost your memory and don’t want to go back, then disappear from this world forever!"

The man reached out and grabbed Gu Zhi's neck.

"Let go...of me..." Gu Zhi struggled, trying to pry his hand away.

But the man's grip grew tighter and tighter. Gu Zhi was already choked so hard that he couldn't make a sound.

A swooshing sound was heard as an arrow shot over. The man immediately loosened his hand and rolled away to dodge Sang Li’s arrow.

Seeing this, the other men immediately attacked Sang Li and Su Mo.

Su Mo waved his whip and fought with them. These few men weren’t very skilled in combat and were no match at all for Su Mo. They wanted to curse them but didn't get the chance to make contact.

At this moment, Cai Na and Ku Li also showed up.

Seeing them, the few men immediately retreated.

"Stop right there!" Cai Na chased after them. Ku Li held her back.

"Saving the young tribal leader is more urgent!"

Cai Na stopped for a second and looked over to see Sang Li already helping Gu Zhi up.

"Gu Zhi, are you alright?" Sang Li asked anxiously.

"Sister, I... " Before Gu Zhi could finish speaking, he spat out another mouthful of blood.

Ku Li immediately went forward to check Gu Zhi's pulse. "This is bad. He's been cursed with the heart-gnawing Gu!"

"What?!" Cai Na exclaimed.

Everyone panicked to take Gu Zhi back to Four Beauties Pavilion.

By now, his clothes were all stained red with the blood he kept vomiting.

"Xiao Han, come quickly and see why he keeps vomiting blood?" Sang Li was so anxious that tears were running down her face. No matter how she tried to wipe away Gu Zhi’s blood, more kept coming out.

"He's been cursed by the heart-gnawing Gu. He'll keep vomiting blood until death!" Ku Li said.

"What is that?" Xiao Han was a little confused. This was simply beyond her medical knowledge and she didn't know how to treat it.

"Quick, summon the mother Gu in his body. Otherwise he will undoubtedly die!" Cai Na pulled Ku Li. "Hurry and think of something!"

"I..." Ku Li was also extremely anxious when he suddenly remembered something. "That's it! Where's the bell? Where is the young tribal leader's bell?!"

"The bell! Isn't the bell with you?!" Cai Na shouted at Sang Li.

With bloodshot eyes, Sang Li immediately took out Gu Zhi's bell bracelet from her bosom and handed it to them.

"Is it this one?"

Ku Li snatched over the bell bracelet and started shaking it next to Gu Zhi's ear.

The crisp sound of bells rang out. Upon hearing this sound, Gu Zhi felt his head was about to split apart.

"Ahhhhh!" He clutched his head in pain and agony.

"Gu Zhi! Gu Zhi!" Sang Li rushed forward at once to hug him, wanting to soothe him.

"Sister...stop shaking...tell him to...stop..." Gu Zhi unconsciously pushed Sang Li away and rolled on the floor in pain.

His right eye suddenly turned red, filled with blood streaks, hideously terrifying.

Everyone was so frightened they retreated several steps back.

"What's going on? So scary!" Xia Miaomiao couldn't help saying.

"Ahhhhhhhhh!" Gu Zhi crashed his head onto the table. The table was even overturned by the impact.

The sound of bells still continued. Although Cai Na couldn’t bear to see him like this, this was the only way to awaken the mother Gu in his body.

"Gu Zhi!" Sang Li threw herself forward and hugged him to prevent him from hitting the table again.

Cai Na was shocked. At this moment, Gu Zhi had no consciousness and it was very likely he would kill! Yet she dared to rush forward?

Gu Zhi's eyes suddenly turned sinister. He pinned Sang Li under him on the floor, clutching her neck with his hands. At this point, the protruding veins on his hands had all turned purplish-red with something squirming inside.

"Sister Sang Li!" Seeing this, the other three were about to step forward.

"Don't come over!" Sang Li shouted with difficulty.

Everyone watched them tensely.

Sang Li looked into Gu Zhi's eyes as tears flowed down her cheeks. "Gu Zhi...it's me...Are you going...to kill me?"

Seeing her tears, Gu Zhi felt a piercing pain in his heart for some reason.

He stared at her and mumbled, "Sister...you are...sister..."

He slowly loosened his hands, gently caressing her face to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Sister..."

Gu Zhi then fainted onto Sang Li.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and went forward to help Sang Li and Gu Zhi up.

Ku Li hurriedly checked Gu Zhi's pulse again, eyes lighting up in pleasant surprise. "The mother Gu in the young tribal leader's body has been awakened. The heart-gnawing Gu should have been destroyed. He should be able to regain his memory now!"

"Really? That's wonderful!" Cai Na also breathed a sigh of relief.

Sang Li looked at Gu Zhi, her eyes seeming to be clouded over with a layer of mist.

So he turned out to be the young tribal chief of the Miao ethnicity.
