Chapter 547 [Ten Thousand Desires Worm]
"When I was in Europe, I once read a medical book that was circulated abroad in the late Qing Dynasty, which included an introduction to witchcraft and witch doctors."
Zhou Yi unconsciously remembered an ancient book he saw on Lord John's shelf. At that time, this book was mixed with many art books, and it was not very conspicuous, but it had the mark of 'Ouchi Secret Collection' on the cover, which told about the most powerful shamanic medicine in the Qing Dynasty. Shamanic medicine is actually the witch doctor in the early years, on the historical origin, no worse than Chinese medicine, even exceeding, until Liao Jin became a religion, at that time shamans were treated as guests in and out of the palace; Qing is also known as 'Hou Jin' while accepting Han Chinese medicine, these shamans are also very worshipped, there will be books about shamans in the inner hall, it is not strange at all. It is estimated that Lord John's ancestor was also an aggressor, and he got this lone book from Huaxia.
Thinking back to the color and taste of sugar-fried chestnuts, combined with the 'Wujia Worm Sutra' he had read, although Zhou Yi was not an expert in raising Gu, he was still able to speculate on Grandma Xiong's methods. That night, Grandma Xiong wanted to talk and rest, not happier than the eldest girl, but said that she used the means of the rivers and lakes that would not hurt good people, in order to just survive and help those poor children, but she didn't make it clear that when she saw her sugar-fried chestnuts with her own eyes today, Zhou Yi could guess her origin.
"This sugar-fried chestnut has one of the three insects recorded in the Wujia Worm Sutra, which is similar to drugs, but it will not harm people like drugs, and modern equipment cannot detect it. Zhou Yi said with a smile: "Compared to the Gu technique that harms and confuses people, it is not the same, but Old Hall Master Su thinks too much." ”
"Three bugs?"
Gu Yun shook her head and couldn't help asking, "What three insects, you can make it clear." ”
"The three insects of the witch family, the sleepy worm, the universal desire worm, and the heart worm"
When it came to the Confusing Heart Worm, Zhou Yi's heart moved, in fact, the Wu family's insect refining method and Gu art are still very similar, and the Wu family has a Confusing Heart Worm. The Gu family also has bewildering Gu, but one is used as a means of spiritual treatment, and the other is a means that can turn people into mental illness, and the direction of development is different; as for the sleepy worm, it is said that it was once very popular, and it was seen by a great writer called Wu Chengen, and later it was written into the book, and it became famous; however, this universal desire insect is rarely seen, according to the records in the book, this is one of the means used by the Wu family for their own cultivation. It is easy not to see people, let alone ordinary people, even characters like the senior brother Ye Decao and the second senior brother Xia Shangyuan may not have heard of it.
"Sleepy worm, I've heard of this, Sun Monkey commonly uses it?" Gu Yun is a woman after all, and she can't suppress the question under curiosity: "Then what is a bewildering heart worm and a universal desire worm? It doesn't sound like a good thing."
"Hehe, the heart worm is a means used by the Wu family to dispel madness and treat mental illness, which can be understood as a means of spiritual treatment. It's just a bit scary to repel insects into the seven orifices. This was a method of shamans, and they could enter the house during the three dynasties of Liao, Jin, and Qing, and the rest of the time they were regarded as strange and chaotic. I've seen it in books, but it's impossible to see it, and as for this universal desire worm, it's even more mysterious, and it is said to be able to seduce people's hearts. It makes people indulge in it without knowing it, but it does not harm people's bodies, and it has the effect of drugs but not the harm of drugs. Originally, it was a means for the Wu family to refine their hearts and minds, and if it was used to make money, it would definitely make a fortune!"
Zhou Yi has now guessed that Grandma Xiong's chestnuts must have added universal insects, but I don't know if she used live insect body or insect powder? It is estimated that the latter is the majority. This kind of insect doesn't know how to feed it, it is estimated that it is much more magical than raising Gu, and it makes him more curious than asking about the grievances between Gao Mai and Grandma Xiong.
"Seduce people's hearts, make people indulge in them without knowing it, and do not harm people's bodies"
Su Dingfang patted Wang Dong's thigh: "Damn, that's it! Brother Zhou, he is worthy of being the first in traditional Chinese medicine, a few words, as if you saw it with your own eyes." "Zhou Yi and Wang Dong are both grinning, one is leg pain, the other is depressed, what is the first contemporary master of Chinese medicine? You don't have relatives with Guo Yueguang and Master Guo, right?
"Hehe" Zhou Yi laughed dryly: "Old Hall Master Su, what grievances does Grandma Xiong have with you, I'm very strange"
"I'm young and frivolous, I don't like to read and make progress, I love to dance with guns and sticks, I got involved in martial arts at the age of eighteen, I looked for people everywhere to challenge, I had no heirs in my life, I didn't pass on incense for the Su family, it was a big unfilial piety"
Su Dingfang sighed: "Even when my father died, I was still talking about martial arts with people at the top of Emei, and when I went back, I only saw my father's tombstone. Before I became the head of Gaomai, the affairs of the family were all handled by the eldest brother and sister-in-law, they worked hard all their lives, and finally passed away one after another because of their exhaustion, leaving only one nephew, because of meningitis in his early years, he became an idiot, I begged the world's famous doctors to see, even your senior brother Ye Decao is helpless"
"So, then Old Hall Master Su must love this nephew very much?"
Zhou Yi nodded, and said in his heart that it was troublesome, if Grandma Xiong's sugar-fried chestnuts were eaten by his nephew, and then there was a good one, I was afraid that it would be difficult to be good.
"I made a vow in front of the grave of my eldest brother and sister-in-law that I would let my nephew enjoy wealth and wealth for the rest of his life and never set foot in martial arts, so I transferred part of the shares in my name to his name, so that he could live in the best house, drive the best car, and have the most beautiful woman."
Su Dingfang sighed: "These industrial shares are the most ordinary company shares in the eyes of outsiders, unless it is a martial arts person, no one knows that it has anything to do with Gao Mai, and those who know naturally do not dare to touch a single hair of him; ”
"Such a second ancestor must be indispensable to the wind and snow, fox and dog party, someone will inevitably take him to see some 'good things' in order to slap him, such as Grandma Xiong's fried chestnuts with sugar?" Zhou Yi shook his head and said: "After he eats chestnuts, what kind of performance does he have?"
"It can only be described as crazy"
Su Dingfang smiled bitterly: "After Su Cheng ate the old woman's fried chestnuts with sugar, he cried and laughed, his face was red, he was originally a good boy who didn't understand the amorous feelings, but he actually became the obscene embryo of the five girls of the Night Palace, and once he couldn't eat the fried chestnuts with sugar, he would be worse off than dead, and do a lot of things to hurt himself, but it's not like you said, this thing won't hurt people's bodies."
"I understand. ”
Zhou Yi sighed: "Old Hall Master Su, it's really no wonder Grandma Xiong is this, she told me last night that there are two kinds of people who can't eat this kind of sugar-fried chestnuts, one is a person who practices martial arts, and the other is a patient with a damaged brain." In order to prevent being eaten by these two people, her sky-high chestnuts will come up with a membership system, and she will have to understand the buyer's situation in detail, and then she will sell it Thinking that someone wants to shoot Su Cheng's sycophant, it will cause this result, I will be fair, the old lady is the same as you, she is also childless, in order to live, and in order to help some poor children in the family go to school, she will take the risk to sell this sugar-fried chestnut, and she is not intentional. ”
"Brother, is this Grandma Xiong related to you?"
Su Dingfang frowned unconsciously, he and Zhou Yi were very affectionate, and he was not polite to others, with his temper, even if Grandma Xiong didn't intentionally hurt her nephew, she couldn't get out of it, and she couldn't escape his revenge. But if Zhou Yi wants to stand up for this old woman, he has to have some scruples, when Yongji fights the flood, Zhou Yi shows enough means to entertain three of him, when it comes to competing forces, Zhou Yi also has big names like Tang Gong and Li Jucheng behind him, and most of them are the objects that 'those people' will pay attention to, and he doesn't dare to provoke easily.
"No relatives. ”
"Why?"
"Not for a reason. ”
"That's right. Brother Zhou, I made an oath in front of my brother and sister-in-law, and anyone who hurts my nephew will pay a heavy price! The bastard boy who gave the chestnut has now sunk to the bottom of Dongting Lake, but I don't want to let go of Grandma Xiong, the original servant, so why do you want to stand up for him, brother, and ruin the affection between you and my brother?"
These words made Zhou Yi grin again, Old Man Su is hypocritical enough, if you want to talk about the generations of the rivers and lakes, it's just a matter of brotherhood, am I so old? Laughing dryly, Zhou Yi shook his head: " Old Hall Master Su, I and this Grandma Xiong are indeed unrelated and have no reason, but her behavior moved me, have you ever seen those children who want to be in elementary school, if there is no Grandma Xiong, most of them may lose the opportunity to go to school, maybe Grandma Xiong's sugar-fried chestnuts have caused harm to your nephew, but that is not what she has a heart, no matter how strong Gao Mai is, she can't be indiscriminate, so she has to find trouble with an old man, right?
"Haha, of course I want to give Brother Zhou's face, but there is a premise. ”
Su Dingfang rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Unless it can cure my nephew and let him get rid of the shadow control of sugar-fried chestnuts." Also, I have also checked the origin of this Grandma Xiong, I am afraid that you can't even imagine Brother Zhou, this old woman living in seclusion in Gongshan is the last 'holy woman' of shamanism! Originally, the shaman was an evil ~ cult organization that the government wanted to crack down, and I didn't want to let her go; but I didn't want to hurt my brother's face because of this, so let's do it, after curing my nephew, she would also agree to work for me. Serving Gao Mai means serving the national government, and she can naturally be exempted from responsibility. Brother, do you think it's okay?"
"Hehe, it's no problem to heal, even if Grandma Xiong can't cure your nephew, I won't stand idly by. Zhou Yi smiled slightly: "But whether you want to join the high-buying organization or not, it depends on grandma's own decision, grandma, you have listened to it for so long, it's time to express your opinion." ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Yi's shoulders shook slightly, and a breeze suddenly rose in the room; after this gust ......of wind disappeared, Su Dingfang and the others suddenly changed their faces, and there were people outside the window!
