In the Xiangnan Villa, Qin Xu lay on the soft couch, covered his mouth, coughed twice, opened his hand, looked at the blood in his palm, took out the handkerchief from his arms, wiped it gently, raised his head, and his eyes met.
Huang Lao looked at him with worried eyes, smiled and shook his head and said: "It's okay, I'm old. In fact, you should be happy for me. Originally, I could only live for two or three years, but now I have lived for five years and I have made a lot of money."
Already."
"Sir, after your martial arts will breaks through, you are obviously better than before..."
Qin Xu shook his head and said: "I said before that the martial arts will only suppressed the injury and improved. Mr. Huang, you know, five years ago, my life was cut off, and I only had one breath left.
I'm holding on, just trying to survive."
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to leave Luo Jing alive, let alone that no one would cause trouble for him in the past five years.
However, if he doesn't die after five years, those people really may not be able to wait any longer.
Thinking of this, Qin Xu shook his head, stopped continuing the topic, and asked: "Xiao Yi is about to complete the Dark Realm, how are the preparations going?"
Huang Lao nodded and said: "Don't worry, sir, I am ready and ready to go at any time."
"Ah That's good!"
Qin Xu was about to say something when he suddenly turned his head, looked in the direction of the door, smiled and said to Huang Lao: "They are back."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Qin Wei's voice came from behind the Feng Shui wall: "Uncle, we are back."
Qin Yi waited until he was in front of Qin Xu, then he saluted respectfully and said, "Sir, we are back."
Qin Xu nodded and asked with a smile: "How's it going? Didn't you encounter any accidents this time?"
Half a year ago, they went to slaughter the Southern Barbarian Tatars who had fled to Qinglin County. There was a Gu Master apprentice among them, which almost caused them to overturn. From then on, every time he came back, Qin Xu would ask if something happened.
Accident.
"No." Qin and Yi quickly shook their heads.
"That's good." Qin Xu looked at the blood and dust stains on the two of them, smelled the smell of the swamp that was still on them, shook his head and said: "Stop hanging around me, go wash up quickly
Suddenly, it stinks to death."
Qin Wei raised his hand, turned his head, twitched his nose, smelled his armpit, shook his head and said: "Does it smell? No? Why didn't I ask?"
Qin Yi shook his head, pushed Qin Wei to the well and took a cold bath, then quickly changed his clothes and came back.
"Sir, I have the answer to your previous question."
"Which question?"
Qin Yi thought about it and found that he had indeed asked a lot of questions recently. The young master always used one move to shift the world and let him find the answers by himself.
"This is why the Southern Barbarians are not afraid of poison since they were young."
"Oh? Did you find the answer? Tell me." Qin Xu showed an interested look on his face, waiting expectantly for his answer.
Qin Yi replied: "Sir, I discovered that in fact, every Southern Barbarian has a parasitic worm in his body. This worm is what they call the natal worm."
"Wait a minute, you said, every Nanman has a natal Gu in his body?"
"Yes, I was also surprised by my discovery. However, I asked this during the break of the battle. Everyone would give a similar answer if they didn't mean it. Moreover, I randomly dissected a few after the war today.
The corpses of the Nanman people were found to have Gu worms in their bodies, which confirmed this statement. However, their natal Gu is different from the worms we understand. Their natal Gu is not in the heart veins, but in the bone marrow of the spine.
inside!"
"Bone marrow? The location is really unexpected. No wonder no one has discovered it until now." Qin Xu murmured to himself after hearing this.
Only then did Qin Yi know that everyone in the Southern Barbarians had natal Gu, and he was the first to discover it.
"What kind of Gu is that Gu?"
"It's a silkworm-like worm. I don't know its name." Then, Qin Yi described the appearance of the worm in detail.
Qin Xu's eyes lit up and he said, "It's the Celestial Silkworm!" Then he shook his head and said, "No, the color is wrong and the size is wrong. It seems that it is a lower-level silkworm similar to the Celestial Silkworm."
"Celestial Silkworm?"
"That is the highest level of poison in the Southern Barbarians. Legend has it that it can cure all poisons. Once someone plants this poison, it will be immune to all poisons."
"so good?"
"Haha, of course, except for the need to be controlled by the Gu Master, everything else is pretty good."
"Then forget it."
"However, there is another way to use the Celestial Silkworm. As long as the poisonous blood is swallowed, the corresponding silk containing the detoxification ability will be swallowed. Taking the silk can alleviate the poison. If you take enough silk, the poison can be completely resolved."
"That's really a treasure."
"Yes, unfortunately, celestial silkworms are very rare and even more difficult to raise. However, they are very similar to the silkworm gu that you mentioned parasitizing in the bone marrow of the Southern Barbarians' spines, and their appearance is also very similar, so I guessed,
There may be some connection between them."
"Well, it is indeed very possible." Qin Yi continued: "By the way, Master, I haven't finished talking yet. I also discovered the principle of detoxification of their natal Gu."
"Oh, what's the principle?" Qin Xu asked curiously.
"The bone marrow has the ability to produce blood! In the bone marrow, the natal Gu may secrete a special substance that can detoxify, so that their blood contains the ability to detoxify."
After hearing this, Qin Xu nodded and said, "That makes sense. Have you found out what the substance is?"
Qin Yi shook his head and said: "As soon as the Southern Barbarians die, their natal Gu dies. I did not find this special substance in the natal Gu. However, I observed the blood of the Southern Barbarians and found that their blood was much darker when they first died.
It was darker, and had a strange smell, but after a few breaths, it turned redder, and the strange bone smell disappeared, turning into ordinary blood. I suspect that once this special substance leaves the body, it may become a poison.
If it dies, it will disappear."
Qin Xu nodded thoughtfully and said: "I have heard a rumor before, saying that the blood of the Southern Barbarians has the ability to detoxify. However, people regarded this rumor as a strange rumor, and not many people believed it. Later, slowly
It’s over.”
Qin Yi thought for a while and said: "It would indeed be possible if we discovered the Southern Barbarians' natal Gu and the special substances secreted by the natal Gu that can detoxify hundreds of poisons, and found a way to preserve them."
Qin Xu nodded and said: "It is indeed possible, but forget it, this matter is too contrary to human nature, it is better to keep it secret, otherwise if this matter is made public, it will cause any negative consequences and it will affect your character."
