Chapter 385: Controlled by the Gu
Many people in Shao Dongyi's hometown are good at raising Gu. When she graduated that year, her eldest sister suddenly called her and said that the two elderly people were not in good condition and might die in the next few days, so she asked her to go back.
Her eldest sister has always been the person she trusts the most in the family, so she did not doubt her words and bought a ticket back that night.
After returning home, she found out that her elder sister had believed what the villagers said, saying that the insect could restore her parents' health, but the price was that she had to marry the son of that family.
There is no filial son for a patient who has been sick for a long time. Shao Dongyi's eldest sister has been taking care of a madman, a paralyzed patient in bed, and two children at home all year round. Even though Shao Dongyi sent a lot of money back every month, Shao Dongyi's eldest sister often felt desperate and painful in such hard work over the years.
Especially the villagers would spread rumors to her from time to time.
They said that if Shao Dongyi had not gone out to study in college and had become more independent and unwilling to give money to his family, her parents would not have asked them for money every few days, and that incident would not have happened later, her brother would not have gone to jail, his parents would not have gotten sick, and she would not have been divorced.
Now Shao Dongyi is living a good life alone in the city, so she is left alone at home to take care of her sick parents. She never comes back to visit them during the holidays. Thinking back to when she used to support Shao Dongyi's studies so much, she is such an ungrateful person.
According to them, girls should not read so many books, because their minds will become wild and they will not recognize people.
At the beginning, the eldest sister would refute and rebuke those people for her, but as time went on, she heard some words too many times and inevitably had some thoughts in her mind.
It was not until the eldest sister's eldest daughter went to junior high school that the child's grades were too poor and she could only attend an ordinary class in the town's junior high school. The eldest sister contacted Shao Dongyi and asked her to think of a way and use her connections to send the child to the top class.
The head teacher of the top class at that time was a teacher who had taught Shao Dongyi before. The two of them had occasionally contacted each other over the years and had a good relationship.
So the eldest sister wanted Shao Dongyi to use his connections to send the child to the top class. Shao Dongyi also contacted the teacher, but the child’s grades were too poor and in the end he was not able to get into the top class.
This incident made the eldest sister even more resentful towards Shao Dongyi. She thought that Shao Dongyi just didn't want her children to have a good future and leave the village. She was too selfish and heartless!
It was at this time that a man in the village who had been in a wheelchair for a long time suddenly stood up miraculously, and a man who was born mentally retarded became a normal person overnight.
They all received the insect therapy from the family that was best at raising insects in the village, so they suddenly became normal.
Moreover, the family also passed on this insect therapy to other people in the village. Other sick people in the village who kept insects at home also tried it and found that it was indeed effective. Their health improved overnight.
For the eldest sister who has been trapped at home taking care of her parents for years and is exhausted both physically and mentally, this news is undoubtedly like the last straw for a drowning man.
She thought about her parents' recovery. As long as her parents recovered, she would be free!
But no one in her family could raise Gu, so she had to ask for help from the family in the village who was best at raising Gu. However, the price was very high, and it would cost 500,000 to cure two people.
Five hundred thousand, she doesn't have that much money.
The other two sisters don't have that much money either.
The eldest sister contacted Shao Dongyi and told him about this. Shao Dongyi felt that the concept of insect therapy was too unscientific and did not agree to use it to treat her parents. She did not have that much money on her.
Shao Dongyi's refusal deepened the eldest sister's dissatisfaction with her. She felt more and more that she was an ungrateful person. She lived a good life in the city alone, but left the mess at home to her, leaving her to suffer alone at home, even though she had been so good to her before.
At the same time, the family that raised the Gu saw that she couldn't come up with 500,000 yuan, so they proposed another way to help her.
The plan was to let Shao Dongyi marry their unmarried son. As long as the two got married, they would cure her parents for free and give her a dowry of 100,000 yuan.
The family’s son is about the same age as Shao Dongyi, and they were classmates in elementary school.
The elder sister was very tempted by this suggestion, thinking that the family was rich, they were all from the same village and knew each other well, and as long as they got married, their parents could be cured and they could also get a dowry, which was also for her own good.
Besides, she has studied for so many years, it’s time for her to give back to her family.
The eldest sister agreed almost the moment she heard the news, and called to coax Shao Dongyi to come back, using the excuse that her parents would soon pass away.
This excuse worked well, and Shao Dongyi bought a ticket to go back that night. But when he got back, he realized he had been cheated.
Shao Dongyi disagreed to get married and insisted that the insect therapy was a scam, and that the family was not a good person. When the son of that family was a child, he used insects to bully his classmates, causing the student to become deaf and blind, and was expelled from elementary school.
Everyone in the village knew about this matter. They had been avoiding that family intentionally or unintentionally over the years, but now they have become known as great good people.
She would never agree to get married and immediately bought a ticket back to Shanghai.
But when she was leaving, she drank a glass of water handed to her by her elder sister and suddenly lost consciousness. When she woke up, she found herself trapped in her body.
My body was controlled by others. I agreed to get married, hold a wedding, resigned from the company, and my cell phone was confiscated by them.
It turned out that in order to prevent her from escaping, her eldest sister mixed a poisonous insect into the glass of water, and the insect controlled her body.
She still remembers how her elder sister’s face turned hideous overnight.
She said to her viciously: Why can she choose her own life at will? She has enjoyed so many years and it is time for her to sacrifice for her parents.
So her desperate struggle outside became a pleasure in their eyes?
Why did my elder sister suddenly become like this?
She remembered that her eldest sister was the one who supported her the most in studying and was the best to her in the family. Why would she harm her now?
Shao Dongyi was heartbroken, in pain and despair, but he couldn't escape.
Li Wenwu went to find her at that time. She still remembers it now. At that time, she was trapped in her body and watched "herself" getting married. She wanted to ask him to help her, but she was powerless.
The atmosphere in the courtyard was very depressing. Shao Dongyi took a deep breath, endured the soreness in his chest and said to Li Wenwu: "You just said that your body seemed to be controlled by someone. It should be like me, you have been poisoned."
Hearing this, Li Wenwu suddenly remembered that something was wrong with him after he drank the bowl of water that Sister Shao Dongyi handed to him.
"Then how did you escape?" Liang Zishu asked.
Shao Dongyi now doesn't look like someone who has lived in the village for a long time.
Shao Dongyi looked at Yang Fan, tears welling up in her eyes, "Because I met Yue Ya."
The so-called Gu worm therapy is all fake. It is just an evil method used by that family to raise Gu worms. They plant Gu worms in the bodies of people who have been ill for a long time and use them to control their bodies, creating the illusion that the people have recovered overnight.
In fact, their bodies are used as a breeding ground for Gu. After a period of time, they will become mindless Gu people who are completely controlled by others.
The reason why they must have Shao Dongyi was because her body was most suitable for raising Gu. They wanted to use her to raise a Gu King, so they planned all this carefully.
Fortunately, on the night of the wedding, she met Yue Ya who was visiting the village. Not only did those poisonous insects have no effect on her, but they all died after touching her.
Yue Ya secretly rescued her and escaped from the village.
As for how he escaped from the village and how he returned to Shanghai, Shao Dongyi could not remember clearly. He also could not remember how he got rid of the poison in his body. He returned to Shanghai in a daze.
Later, Yue Ya asked her to be an asset manager to manage all her assets. She traveled around the world and the two might not see each other even once a year.
After that incident, Shao Dongyi cut off contact with her family and never returned to the village. She also met her ex-husband, who died not long ago, at work and started a family.
I just heard from my former classmates that not long after she left, those who were cured by the insect therapy all died overnight, and the family that raised the insects also died, in a tragic way.
