Chapter 10 It's Your Mother's Relic
Dinggong vine, Jiulixiang, small leaf lotus, strychnine......
Watching Uncle Nine put many herbs in a clay pot and boil them, the corners of my eyes couldn't help but twitch.
Although I am not very familiar with Chinese herbal medicine, I have heard of these poisonous herbs, why do you boil so many poisonous herbs?
When the boiled herbs emitted a pungent medicinal fragrance, Uncle Nine took out a small bottle from his arms, and dripped a few drops of black liquid into it with a painful face, and he didn't know what it was.
After boiling, he made a large bucket of hot water, poured the liquid medicine into the vat, and then asked me to take off my clothes and take a bath with a blank face.
I looked at him with a strange face, and said helplessly: "Don't be so troublesome, if you want to kill me, just give me a knife while I'm asleep, it's too wasteful to do this!"
Uncle Jiu's forehead was bruised, and he roared: "Don't talk nonsense, are you willing to be Lao Tzu?" Lao Tzu's inventory is that, don't be cheap and sell well, hurry up!"
I don't know what he's up to, but my gut tells me he's not going to hurt me.
I simply took off my clothes and jumped into the wooden barrel, the hot water scalded my teeth, and then I felt a pinprick pain all over my body, and subconsciously wanted to stand up, but was directly soaked in the medicine by Uncle Jiu's head.
"Bear with me, you will know how precious this thing is in the future, your grandfather begged me many times, but I didn't pay attention to him...... Don't let me down, boy!"
As he said this, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and poured in some colorless viscous liquid, and his face twitched very reluctantly.
I stayed in the barrel, as if I had experienced the Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire, and my whole body not only tingled, but also had a tingling feeling, as if there were a lot of ants scurrying around on my body, which was very unbearable.
"Uncle Nine, I can't stand it anymore!" I couldn't help but roar.
Uncle Nine glanced at me, and directly slashed the knife on the back of my neck, my eyes were black, and I fainted directly.
It's a good idea, but it's a bit too rough!
I don't know how long it has been, but I woke up and was still in the barrel, but the water in the barrel was already cold. Uncle Nine was not in the room, I rubbed the back of my sore neck, muttered a few words, got up from the barrel, grabbed a towel on the side to wipe it, and put on my clothes.
It was already night outside, but the lights were still on at the store, and I got dressed and walked through the backyard, and when I was about to enter the store through the back door, I heard the voice of Uncle Nine inside.
"The thing raised in Jiang Yun's body has been taken out, what are you not satisfied with? Tang Zhennan is dead, the grave has been picked up, and the body is missing, what do you want? Old thing, don't go too far, if Dabao has any three long and two short, I guarantee that your Jiang family will never have ......peace from now on."
"The people from Qimen have found it, and against this kid, I estimate that the latter means will be even worse. The fish that slipped through the net in Miaoling back then, the follow-up to the incident of falling into the dragon well...... Don't talk about this, if you hadn't forced it back then, Tang Zhennan would have made the leylines explode and bury those guys? If it weren't for you, Tang Dabao's father and mother wouldn't have disappeared, and if you talk this nonsense at this time, you won't die, old thing!"
"Lao Tzu doesn't owe you the Jiang family, don't use the kindness of the year to pressure Lao Tzu, the Lao Tzu who should be repaid has already been repaid. I warn you, if those guys from the Jiang family dare to trouble him, you just wait to collect their bodies!"
......
I stood at the back door, setting off a lot of waves in my heart, and looked at Uncle Nine who was talking on the phone in the store with a complicated face. Uncle Jiu's mood was very irritable at this time, and I had vaguely guessed who the person on the other end of the phone was.
Combined with what happened in the past two days, although I don't want to admit it, the facts seem to be obvious.
My mother is from the Jiang family, Jiang Yun is my cousin, and the disappearance of my parents and some of the things my grandfather used to do are all related to the Jiang family.
There may be a lot of hidden secrets, but I am already disgusted with the impression of the Jiang family in my heart.
Uncle Nine hung up the phone angrily, and when he saw me standing at the back door, he was stunned for a moment.
"When did you come here?" said Uncle Nine with a slightly ugly face.
"From the moment you said that the things in Jiang Yun's body were taken out, I came over!" I said lightly.
"Did you hear it all?"
"I'm not deaf, I can hear clearly!" I said, "My face was calm.
Uncle Nine was silent, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "Sit down, let's talk!"
I walked to the counter and sat down, looking at Uncle Jiu, although his face was calm, but his heart was very chaotic.
Uncle Nine lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, spit out the smoke ring, and said quietly: "Your mother's name is Jiang Qin, she is a member of the Jiang family in Sucheng, I grew up in the Jiang family, and your mother is a childhood sweetheart...... Don't stare, I'm not kidding you!"
Thousands of words converged into a sentence of mom selling criticism, this news was a bit exciting, and I was a little unable to come back to my senses for a while.
"Forget it, I won't go into detail about this kind of shit, anyway, it was your father's bastard who got ahead of you first. Because of your grandfather, the Jiang family does not agree with the matter of your father and your mother......"
"Wait a minute!"
I interrupted Uncle Nine and asked, "Because of my grandfather, I don't like my family, or is it some other reason?"
Uncle Nine said that the Jiang family is a famous family, and my family is just a rural villager, and the status gap is too big, is it because of this?
"It's not!"
Uncle Nine shook his head and said softly: "Although your grandfather is a bastard, if he wanted money and power back then, he would definitely be able to catch up with the Jiang family in a short period of time......! Don't interrupt, listen to me!"
He groaned for a moment, and then changed his mind and no longer said anything about my parents and him, but about my grandfather's grave.
"Your grandfather killed a lot of people back then, and he didn't lie to you!"
Uncle Nine said with emotion: "Feng Shui master kills people without seeing blood, your grandfather is definitely a leader, and the people who die in his hands often don't know how they died until they die......!
"Those people didn't want your grandfather's corpse to vent their anger or anything, but I guess it was to find some secrets about your grandfather's body. For example, the so-called law of the heavenly phase is ......"
"A Feng Shui master with a heritage, once he enters the realm of qi cultivation, once the meridian luck in his body is formed, he will leave qi nodes in all the meridians in his body. If after some arcane dissections, there is a certain chance that the trajectory of the qi in the body can be deduced, and those who stole your grandfather's body are likely to want to do so......"
Of course, there is a certain risk in such an approach, and if there is a little accident, the previous work will be lost. That's why they're going to target you, whether it's life or death, as long as they can bring you back. Even if you can't know the next volume of the Heavenly Aspect Law from your mouth, you can still deduce it by dissecting your corpse and comparing it with your grandfather's corpse a little......"
Listening to what Uncle Nine said, my scalp was a little numb, and at the same time, my heart was also sad and angry.
Before I could ask, Uncle Nine continued: "Your grandfather asked you to come here, in addition to finding you a shelter, mainly because he wants me to help you improve to the realm of self-cultivation!
As he spoke, Uncle Nine handed me a prescription, which recorded in detail the amount of various herbs.
I'm a little confused, I feel that Uncle Nine tonight is a little strange, this posture seems to drive me away.
"By the way, and the mark on your hand!"
Uncle Nine glanced at my right hand with complicated eyes, and said, "That is a relic left to you by your mother, originating from the Miaoling Falling Dragon Well, as for what it is, you will know it in the future......"
Before he finished speaking, there was a roaring sound of an engine outside the store, and a white dung fork luxury car stopped at the door of the store, Jiang Yun got out of the car and walked into the store.
Uncle Nine took a deep breath and said to me, "Okay, everything that needs to be said has been said, let's go with her!"
