Chapter 498: Just to Survive
Back in the herb vault again, Comber had already compiled a list and packed it all in boxes, at least for a short time, there would be no problems.
Li Tian waited beside him for more than an hour, neatly and neatly, with seven boxes, some large and some small.
The box of the Jun family is obviously the largest, and Li Tian's box is the smallest, anyway, he can come and get the medicinal materials in it at any time, take a little bit and test it first, it should be able to be used for about a month.
"Comber, how much is it in total?"
"Twenty million. ”
This is talking about US dollars, that is, more than 100 million Chinese dollars.
Don't look at Li Tian's boxes, there are relatively few, but the prices of several medicinal materials are ridiculously expensive, and Li Tian's small box is worth 20 million Huaxia coins.
If it were counted one by one, it would definitely not be an integer, but Comber didn't care about it, and directly erased the fraction.
The five billion dollars owed to the ghost king have been repaid, and the speed at which the ghost king spends money is really fast, there are more than 100 medicinal material procurement points in the world, and the staff alone is tens of thousands, and the annual expenditure is an astronomical amount.
"I don't have a card here, I'll call Yu Han tomorrow to transfer the money. ”
"Good. ”
Li Tian's card was handed over to the monk, after all, the monk had to purchase a lot of things for the company's base.
After carrying all the boxes to the elevator, the two of them returned to the manor.
After sitting down and taking a sip of tea, Comber said, "Young Master Tian, presumably the master should have already told you about the matter, right?"
"Well, I know a little bit about the situation, and the reason why I didn't leave is that I want to ask Comber, and I don't know the specific details. ”
Li Tian also took a sip of tea, since he came, this matter must be asked clearly, because Li Tian felt that the ghost king did not seem to succeed.
"Since the master has already said it, then there is nothing inappropriate for me to say it again. It actually started 20 years ago......"
Li Tian listened from the side and did not interrupt Comber's words.
Although Comber deliberately avoided some sensitive topics, it still made Li Tian understand the whole thing.
It turned out that the ghost king had been in poor health since he was a child, and as he grew up, the ghost king knew that he was because of his congenital deficiency, and such a person generally did not live to be fifty years old.
He didn't want to die, so he began to secretly collect methods that could treat this birth defect in Miao Village.
Finally, in a very old secret recipe, something was written.
Life-sustaining Gu!
As the name suggests, it is possible to extend a person's lifespan for a few years, but the cultivation of the Life-Continuation Gu is particularly difficult, according to the above method, it is impossible for a person to cultivate it at all, and the Life-Continuation Gu must consume five hundred milliliters of essence blood every day. After cultivating it for five years in a row, and then implanting it into the human body, when the essence and blood of the human body are insufficient, the Life-Continuation Gu will release its own essence and blood to maintain the survival of the master.
A person, in order to live, must first have organs that can work properly. The second is the essence blood that needs to make these organs work. The Ghost King's innate essence blood is relatively small, so he can not live for a long time. The reason why those martial arts masters can live to be ten years old or even over a hundred years old is not because of their own essence and blood.
He can't practice martial arts, so the essence and blood in his body can't grow at all, and if he wants to live longer, he can only use this method.
But where did he get so much essence blood to raise the Life-Continuation Gu? It wouldn't take two days, and before the Life-Continuation Gu could be cultivated, he himself would die first.
This is not called a life-sustaining Gu, this is called a life-urging Gu. In that ancient book, there was only one person who finally succeeded, and that person was a grandmaster-level master who successfully used the Life Continuation Gu to continue his life for ten years!
The Life Continuation Gu is to ask you to use your own life to support it, and when your life is about to end, it will use its own life to feed you.
But the ghost king could not do this, because he could not afford to raise it.
Later, he got a thing, that is, a gene potion, if his genes were injected into the animal's body, then the animal's essence blood would also be able to meet the needs of the life-sustaining Gu.
But the success rate is too low, over the years, the ghost king has never stopped injecting S gene potions into these animals, and the ones he chose were the kind of animals with strong vitality and vigorous essence and blood.
Of course, he sacrificed many, many animals, but he just wanted to be able to live. Especially after grafting the psychic Gu for Lin Yi, the little essence blood left in his body was almost exhausted.
He knew that he might not even live for five years, so he immediately started this plan, which was originally just an idea in his head.
In the past four months, he used his connections to continuously transport these animals from various countries, but unfortunately only 100 survived in the end.
The Life-Continuation Gu is being cultivated, and before the Ghost King's life comes to an end, there is a good hope of success.
Li Tian finished listening to a qiē, and he didn't say anything for a long time. Is the Ghost King cruel? No, at least he didn't use a living person to do a real thing, and with the Ghost King's ability, even if he got a thousand living people, it wouldn't be too much of a problem.
The Ghost King has only one original intention, and that is to let himself live a few more years...... That's all.
As long as you can live, you can't use any means.
"What are vampires for?"
Li Tian continued to ask.
"The master said that vampires' hearts don't seem to be like humans, they can absorb other people's blood to keep their organs running normally, so vampires are very difficult to kill, as long as there is a breath of blood, as long as there is blood for them to drink, they can quickly recover from their injuries. The master just wants to find a way to study this aspect thoroughly, and if he can succeed, maybe with the help of other people's blood, he can also live for a longer period of time. ”
In the eyes of vampires, other people's blood is their essence blood, and the essence blood is continuous, and if you are injured, you can get better quickly.
Of course, the vampires here are not as terrible as the legends, what immortality and the like, the vampires that Li Tian knows are just like ordinary people, they also have birth, old age, sickness and death, but they love fresh blood.
"yes, I see. Trouble Comber drove me to the helicopter, you can call me if you need anything. ”
"Good. ”
Today, Li Tian's mood was not very calm, he didn't expect that the ghost king was already facing such a situation and had come to the brink of life and death. At this moment, Li Tian only felt guilty and uneasy in his heart, and there was no other emotion.
