"My Lord said that people who are infected with the Soul-Eating Gu must take a new Soul-Eating Gu every month in order to survive. Such a unique life-saving method, I have thought about it and only Jie Gu can do it.
Matches. But if it is really Jie Gu that is causing trouble, the problem will be more troublesome, because ordinary voodoo farmers cannot resolve Jie Gu. Jie Gu is taboo in Miao territory, because once it is reinfested, it is tantamount to death.
There is no other way except to keep swallowing the Jiegu in your heart. But even so, it is not a long-term solution, because Jie will grow. Jie will gradually grow bigger by eating the same kind of food, and its appetite will gradually increase.
Get bigger. At first, you only need to take one Jie Gu to delay the attack for a month. Later, you may need two, three, or even more. The frequency of the Jie Gu's attacks will also be shortened. One day, you will not be able to satisfy the Gu.
The appetite causes the voodoo to devour the host.
In Miao territory, anyone who dares to use Jie Gu to harm others will be executed by the Miao people using the most cruel methods. Because of this, most of the stories about Jie Gu are legends and few people can see them.
.And my subordinates haven’t spent much time in Miao territory, so it’s even harder to understand the exact problem.”
Miao Caihe said a lot, and Xia Shang and Xian'er's expressions became increasingly ugly after hearing this.
I didn't expect this soul-eating Gu to be so troublesome. I thought Xian'er would have at least a year.
It seems now that everyone was too optimistic before.
If the appetite of Gu worms in the human body will continue to grow, who knows how long Xian'er can persist?
Seeing Xia Shang's face darken, Chunjiao shouted: "Don't always say bad things, say something good, okay?"
Miao Caihe nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes... Sir, don't be so disappointed. Although the Jie Gu is said to be invincible in Miao Territory, there are other legends in Miao Territory. My grandma is one of the few cultivators in Miao Territory.
What people are best at is making all kinds of poisons, and they are also top-notch masters in resolving poisons. Many orphan poisons that many people cannot resolve can be easily resolved in her hands.
Besides, even if my grandma can't resolve it, there is still my grandma's master. My grandma's master is the best Gu master in Miao territory. It is said that there is no poison in the world that she can't resolve. I think she can resolve it even if it is Jie Gu.
It's just..."
Miao Caihe wanted to speak but stopped.
Xia Shang said: "Just what?"
"It's just that my grandma is old. My grandma's master was already 130 years old when I was a child. I don't know now..."
Xia Shang frowned: "It means that the future is uncertain, and it all depends on God's will."
Things have changed, and their severity far exceeded Xia Shang's expectations, which necessitated some changes in Xia Shang's plans.
Xia Shang originally wanted to stay in Chengdu for a while, but because of the plague, he wanted to wait until the epidemic was under control before leaving for Miao territory.
Now it seems there is no time.
In the final analysis, Xia Shang is still not that great. When the people around him are threatened, other things can be put aside. He cannot sacrifice his loved ones to save the common people.
At that moment, Xia Shang immediately made a decision: "Let's prepare tonight, and we will set out for Miao territory early tomorrow morning."
"Yes! Sir." Miao Caihe accepted the order, looked at Chunjiao, and then exited the room.
After Miao Caihe left, Chunjiao said to Xia Shang: "Sir, what this woman said cannot be believed at all. She has not been in Miaojiang for a long time, and her knowledge of Miaojiang's poison is limited. It is possible that the real situation is not as good as what she described.
It’s serious. Moreover, the incident happened suddenly, and the details of this woman have not been investigated clearly. Although she is absolutely loyal, we can’t say how much she can help you.”
"It's already a big help that she can tell me this. Otherwise, I wouldn't take it so seriously. If it harms Xian'er, I won't be able to feel at ease in this life."
Xian'er's eyes flashed and she put her hand on the back of Xia Shang's hand emotionally: "Young Master..."
Chunjiao added: "There is no need to worry. If there are subordinates following you, even if there is no other way, it is not impossible to suppress the Gu insects with Zhenqi."
Xia Shang shook his head: "This is not a long-term solution. If your heartache is not cured, you will never be at ease. Besides, you have to stay in Chengdu these days."
"Huh?" Chunjiao was confused.
"Going to the Miao Territory is a private matter after all. But now things in Chengdu can be regarded as official matters. In the Miao Territory, I will take Xian'er with me, and a guide is enough. At most, I can add Zhou Jianren. The more people going there, the more people will be attracted.
Attention will also arouse the Miao people's defense. If you stay in Chengdu, I have more important things for you."
Chunjiao's face darkened: "Is it about this plague?"
Xia Shang nodded: "I don't know if you have investigated it. Anyway, I heard someone say that this plague is man-made and manipulated by someone behind the scenes. First, I don't want anyone to take hundreds of thousands of lives into their hands; second, I don't want anyone to take advantage of it.
Second, I will never allow such a person to live in the world; third, I want to know the purpose behind this; fourth, I hope this plague will stop soon."
"This doesn't seem to be directly related to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and us..." Chunjiao said very tactfully, but her meaning was very obvious, that is, we were meddling in other people's business.
Xia Shang's face darkened: "Remember! You and I... everyone in the Metropolitan Procuratorate is not a cold-blooded machine, and must live like a human being. If you don't understand this, I, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the previous
What’s the difference between the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Metropolitan Procuratorate?”
Chunjiao was shocked. She felt Xia Shang's anger. He hadn't spoken to her in such a serious way for a long time. She didn't dare to think about it in detail at the moment. She knelt on the ground with some fear: "Subordinate...subordinate...I know
wrong."
Xian'er on the side was very surprised.
The other party is obviously a master, why would he kneel down to the young master and not even have the slightest intention of resisting?
I am afraid that the only person in the world who can make a grandmaster kneel down is the man in front of me.
"Do you remember the four points I mentioned?" Xia Shang asked solemnly.
"My subordinates will remember it."
"Just go ahead and do your own thing."
"yes."
Chunjiao stood up, feeling a little depressed, and turned to leave the room.
But as soon as she reached the door, Xia Shang suddenly stopped her: "Wait a minute."
"Sir, do you have anything else to say?"
"be safe."
Listening to Xia Shang's sincere words, Chunjiao frowned slightly, not knowing what she was feeling.
After a dull night, Xia Shang and Xian'er packed their bags early.
Miao Caihe and Zhou Jianren rented a carriage early and waited below the inn.
Without saying much, the group got on the carriage and headed for the Miao border.
However, the carriage did not sit for long, and the group abandoned the carriage and entered the dense rainforest area on the southwest border of Bashu.
According to Miao Caihe, the real Miao people who keep voodoos all live in the primitive rainforest. Those Miao people near Dali have long been influenced by the Han people. Almost all of them have severed ties with the most primitive Miao life and have no idea about voodoo insects.
