At this moment, Sixth Brother was still in a coma. The two of them might as well go check on the situation of these poisoned people.
The light inside the space was completely different from the outside. Although there was no sunlight shining down, it still gave people a feeling of sunshine and warmth.
As a result, when Mo Jiuye removed the mask of one of them, he was stunned in place...
He Zhiran saw his expression was off, and hurriedly asked: "What's wrong?"
Mo Jiuye pointed at the person in front of him and said: "This is my father's deputy general, Tao Ran."
After he finished speaking, Mo Jiuye impatiently went to check the identities of the others.
Upon looking, more than half of them were people whose names he could call out, and they were all good brothers who had followed his father through life and death for many years.
As for those whose names he couldn't call out, Mo Jiuye could still vaguely recognize their faces. He could basically confirm that these were all soldiers from the army.
Seeing so many brave men who defended their homes and country here, and all of them had become like living dead, Mo Jiuye was filled with complex emotions for a moment.
He Zhiran didn't need to ask. She could tell from Mo Jiuye's expression that these people were all Da Shun's soldiers and generals.
They shed blood for Da Shun on the battlefield, but ended up in such an outcome in the end.
They were also someone else's sons, husbands or fathers. When their families received news of their deaths, how heartbroken must they have felt?
Mo Jiuye slowly stood up, grief and indignation on his face, and said: "Here, many people died in battle when I was the one who sent people to inform their families. I didn't expect that they, like the Mo family men, are still alive after all..."
He Zhiran could understand Mo Jiuye’s feelings.
In her previous life, she had also gone on missions with her comrades. When they left, her comrades were still healthy and lively, but in the end they never came back.
As a result, He Zhiran spent a long period of time in remembrance and longing for those comrades.
Mo Jiuye was the same. He watched his comrades leave one by one before his eyes, so only he himself knew the sourness in his heart best.
"Don't be sad. Let me check their condition first."
She first did a full body check on Tao Ran.
The results were not optimistic. It was obvious that he was poisoned, and not by just one type of poison.
Among the poisons she could name, there were only a few that she was familiar with. These poisons would not kill a person, but would gradually paralyze one's nerves and make them lose self-awareness, turning into something like a living dead. This was where the problem lay with these "poisoned people".
These were indeed the legendary poisoned people.
The characteristic of "poisoned people" was that they had no autonomous consciousness, could not perceive bodily pain, and as long as they still had a breath left, they would act like machines, ceaselessly carrying out the commands issued by their controller.
Speaking of controllers, the first person He Zhiran thought of was Sixth Brother.
The Gu worms taken out of Sixth Brother's body were of an abnormal color, she didn't know if it had anything to do with the special offspring Gu inside his body.
In order to verify all this, He Zhiran took out the bottle containing the offspring Gu from Mo Xiuyan's body. She shook it a few times, and the Gu worm inside immediately became restless.
The Gu worm first charged around violently, then flew to the bottom of the bottle. If one looked closely, one could see that it had even raised its front two feet.
Next, a bizarre scene occurred.
All the people lying on the grass stood up at once and quickly lined up neatly.
Both Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran were shocked for a moment.
He Zhiran experimentally moved the Gu worm further away, and looked at those people again. Their bodies gradually went limp.
At the same time, Mr. Si Meng, who had chased out of the city, once again felt an anomaly from the mother Gu.
He quickly took out the mother Gu to check, and saw that the mother Gu had inexplicably become restless for some reason.
For a Gu raiser, such a situation was all too familiar.
It was nothing more than the offspring Gu having encountered some kind of shock or accidental situation, which led to this kind of reaction.
In most cases, it was when the host of the offspring Gu died and the offspring Gu itself escaped and encountered some danger on the way back to the mother Gu.
Thinking of such possibilities, sweat appeared on Mr. Si Meng's forehead.
He didn't know which host had died. The mother Gu he owned had given birth to offspring Gu that controlled a total of three Mo family men. No matter which one, their current positions were all very important.
Especially Big Brother Mo and Second Brother Mo. If something happened to them, everything he had planned over so many years might come to naught.
Sixth Brother Mo was also the same. He had just been sent out by himself, with the purpose of intercepting the road from the south to Da Shun, while also helping the southern border soldiers attack Da Shun.
The offspring Gu inside his body was the only one that could control those poisoned people through the mother Gu to pass on information.
If Mo Sixth Brother died, not only would his poisoned people face the danger of seeing sunlight, it would also be a complete waste of his many years of hard work.
One must know, it took great effort to produce these poisoned people.
The combat power of these poisoned people could match a hundred men. At present, they were his biggest trump card.
If he hadn't guessed that the people who broke into the Southern Border Prince's Mansion to steal things and went to kill his disciple at Si Meng Mountain Villa were likely to be Mo family members who also rescued Mo Xiuyan, he would never have revealed his trump card so early.
The more Mr. Si Meng thought about it, the more anxious he became in his heart. He only hoped that the offspring Gu could return to the mother Gu's embrace sooner, so that he could determine exactly who had died.
Although the offspring Gu would bring him definite news, Mr. Si Meng still rushed in the direction of the border between the two countries.
If the dead host really was Sixth Brother Mo, by hurrying over earlier, he might still be able to keep those poisoned people. As a last resort he could always find another powerful host at that time...
Inside the space.
Mo Jiuye stared at those poisoned people, heartbroken, because his wife had not yet found a way to detoxify them for the time being.
Indeed, He Zhiran had not found a way to detoxify them. Not to mention there were several poisons she hadn't even seen before, even for those poisons which she knew the names of, with several poisons combined together, it wouldn't be so easy to detoxify them.
Whether it was poison or antidote, there existed mutual promotion and restraint. Helping those people detoxify, if she used the wrong medicinal material even once, it could lead to death.
Therefore, He Zhiran did not dare to rashly help detoxify those people.
Fortunately, both she and Mo Jiuye knew clearly that the poisoned people did not need to eat, and would not suddenly wake up either, so keeping them inside the space for a while longer was nothing to worry about.
Under normal circumstances, He Zhiran could buy some books related to poisoned people and study them carefully before formulating a detoxification solution.
But now they were in the Southern Border, they didn't dare be the slightest bit careless or relaxed.
Especially since Fourth Brother and Seventh Brother were still healing from injuries in the capital city, they even more so did not dare remain outside for too long.
In case those soldiers searched the place once more with extra scrutiny while they were not by their side, it would be dangerous for the two elder brothers.
Mo Jiuye was also worried about the external situation. Seeing that his wife had not expressed any opinion for a while, he reminded: "Ranran, or should we return to the capital first?"
He Zhiran was of the same opinion.
"Mm, Sixth Brother probably won't wake in the next few hours. Let's go back now."
