229: Gu Worm Golem

Nalan Jinxiu was offstage, just wanting to see how the people on the stage rescued. Her two needles will make Ji Xiaobai fall into a state of suspended animation immediately, if you want people to wake up, you must reapply the needles on those two acupuncture points, and you must pierce deeper than before. But the person on the stage who called himself Sai Huatuo only said that it didn't matter, and he would naturally get better after taking my medicine.

With Ji Xiaobai's current state, not an absolute famous doctor will definitely say that the medicine stone is ineffective, and go back to prepare for the future. And the doctor who sees the way will definitely administer needles to help him wake up. Now the one who makes him take his medicine is either a quack doctor or a genius. Nalan Jinxiu was of course more inclined to the former, and now he was more curious about the medicine that he could cure all diseases.

Sai Huatuo would personally feed the pill to the patient, and Ye Bing naturally couldn't let Ji Xiaobai take this medicine. So, he showed a clever hand and stole Saihuatuo's pill with great speed.

Nalan Jinxiu looked at Ye Bing intently because he knew it before, but he still couldn't find out if he had taken the pill. She turned her face to Ji Hongye, and when she saw him slightly bowing her head, she was sure that Ye Bing had succeeded. At this time, she couldn't help but sigh again, there was really everyone around the third brother, Ye Bing's martial arts were so good, he even stole things, no wonder when he first saw him, he stayed on the beam, it turned out to be a gentleman on the beam.

At this time, Ji Xiaobai had completely entered a state of suspended animation, and the crowd began to be restless. Many people said that the medicine did not work just now, and the young man was dead. Ye Bing carried Ji Xiaobai down and left according to Ji Hongye's gaze, Ji Xiaobai was too eye-catching now, they still needed to find a secluded place, and then carefully study what that pill was.

When the crowd calmed down again, Nalan Jinxiu and Ji Hongye went out to find Ji Xiaobai and Ye Bing. In a small alley around the corner, Nalan Jinxiu gave Ji Xiaobai a needle and woke him up. Suspended animation will not harm the human body in the short term, but if it takes a long time, it may not be able to be saved.

Ji Xiaobai came back to life with a heavy breath, feeling that he had just walked away from the ghost gate, and he felt that there was no time to live with the girl. He glanced at Nalan Jinxiu resentfully, looking like an angry little daughter-in-law who dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.

In normal times, Nalan Jinxiu would definitely catch this matter and hit him hard, but now she wanted to see the pill even more. The small pill was pale red, with a faint medicinal fragrance, but this medicinal fragrance was a little strange, and there was a hint of fishiness in the bitterness.

Although Nalan Jinxiu has not tasted all the herbs, as an excellent healer, her nose is very sensitive. At this time, she felt that this fishy smell was unusual, it was definitely not emitted by plants, it should be a living thing with flesh and blood. There are many doctors who use living animals to make medicine primers, such as silver fox blood and thousand-year-old turtle blood, which are extremely rare medicine primers.

She couldn't tell what it was by smell alone, so she simply found a porcelain bowl and warm water to melt the red pill. Something strange happened, in the middle of the pill was a small black dot, similar to a shell, insoluble in water. It floated in the water for a long time, and it didn't melt, Nalan Jinxiu frowned, she suspected that it was not warm enough.

"Ji Xiaobai, this water is already cold, you go and ask for a bowl of boiling water. ”

Ji Xiaobai hadn't recovered from the state where he almost died at this time, he patted his chest and shook his head, saying that he couldn't go now. Nalan Jinxiu had no choice but to let Ye Bing go. Ye Bing came back quickly, and the small black dot was thrown into the water, and it opened quickly, and then there was a very small red line inside, so small that if you didn't look at it carefully, you couldn't find it at all.

"How is there a line in this medicine?" Ji Xiaobai also felt too strange and couldn't help asking.

"It's not a thread, it's a living thing. Nalan Jinxiu touched it lightly with a silver needle, and the thing really swam in the water.

"Is this a worm?" Ji Xiaobai blinked his eyes, making sure that the little thing had indeed swam for a while.

"This is not an ordinary bug, this is a Gu worm. Nalan Jinxiu frowned, and her expression became more and more serious.

"Gu worms?" Ji Xiaobai is no stranger to this kind of thing, he has heard a lot of legends about Gu worms, but he has never seen them.

"This Gu worm should be a thing of the Demon Clan, and only they can raise such a fine Gu. Nalan Jinxiu looked at the size of this Gu worm so small, he could only think of the magic brake.

After hearing the word "magic brake", Ji Hongye's expression became solemn, not because of anything else, but because this small country was too mysterious, and almost no one knew what it was like inside. What kind of people live in the Demon Brake Country, and what kind of habits do they have, which makes the outside world infinitely curious, and some people go to investigate one after another, but as soon as they enter the Demon Brake realm, there is no news, and they don't know whether they are alive or dead.

To the west of Ningguo is the plateau, where the Mosha people live. Because of the high terrain, there are high mountains and dense forests, and there are many miasma in the forest, and there are many deadly poisons. Toads, spiders, scorpions, poisonous snakes, centipedes...... This condition makes it difficult for outsiders to enter.

A hundred years ago, the patriarch of the Demon Shrine reached an agreement with Ningguo to trace the ancient city as the junction point, and no party was allowed to cross the border. The Demon Brake people never came from the outside world, why did there be Gu worms flowing into Ning Kingdom?

In Nalan Jinxiu's impression, most of the Gu worms are used to control puppets, and as long as they are hit by Gu, they will be manipulated by others. Gu worms can save lives if they are used well, for example, the Golden Silkworm Gu can repair people's internal organs, and the Wujin Gu can overcome poison, and Twilight is still an indispensable medicine for making longevity pills. It's just that many people use it to harm people, so people have a natural fear of Gu worms.

Could it be that the Gu used by Sai Hua Tuo was to save people? No! Gu worms were very difficult to raise, and those high-level Gu worms were very difficult to feed except for the Demon Brake people. And if it is used by people, it must be nourished by the person's own blood and qi, so only seriously injured people will use Gu, and they will take it out when the opportunity is ripe to prevent backlash.

Let's not talk about how difficult it is to cultivate Gu worms that can save people, it is this kind of behavior of directly giving people Gu worms regardless of the symptoms, which is not the work of a good doctor. Could it be that Saihuatuo still has to follow every patient, and then lure out the Gu worms after a few days or even dozens of days? This seems unlikely, so many people are treated, who is he going to follow?

"I'll feed this Gu worm with blood first to see what it is. Nalan Jinxiu looked at the little red Gu worm with a solemn expression.

"Is this thing used to harm people?" Ji Hongye had already guessed in his heart, but he just asked her for verification.

"Probably not a good thing. ”

"You're going to feed it with blood?"

"Yes, and it can be a long process. This kind of thing is very strange, it sucks someone's blood at the beginning, and it will inevitably suck that person in the future. ”

Ji Hongye's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said lightly: "Then I'll feed you." ”

As soon as Nalan Jinxiu saw his serious expression, she knew that he was protecting her. In fact, there is nothing to worry about, she knows how to feed it, it will not hurt people, and it can also allow the Gu worms to grow normally.

"One or two drops of blood a day is enough. She looked at him with a twinkle in her eyes, as if she thought he was a little amused.

"Isn't one or two drops of blood going to stab yourself?" Ji Hongye felt that it was okay for him to prick one or two stitches a day, but she was different, a delicate little girl.

"Okay then, you can feed it, but it's cheap. Nalan Jinxiu put away the Gu worm with a small porcelain bottle, thinking that the third brother could read so well, this little thing sucked his blood, would it become smarter?

Although Ji Hongye didn't know much about Gu worms, he had also seen some of them from ancient books, and most of this thing in his heart was a little evil, and many people used it to do evil things. If this is really the Gu of the Demon Clan, then why did it appear in the realm of the Ning Kingdom in vain? Things don't seem to be simple.

"From now on, you two will take turns staring at the doctor, and I want to know who he really is and what he is planning. ”

Ji Xiaobai and Ye Bing's respectful salute should be that Nalan Jinxiu and Ji Hongye went back to the inn first, and now they need to feed this Gu worm alive as soon as possible.

Ji Xiaobai and Ye Bing decided to stare at one day and the other at night. Because they were too eye-catching before, they deliberately dressed up in disguise before going there to stare again.

Ji Hongye watched Nalan Jinxiu put the Gu worm in the porcelain vase into a bowl, and pricked his finger with a silver needle, and a drop of blood went in. The Gu worm crawled over to the taste and began to suck the drop of blood, it was very small, but it ate quickly, and after only sucking one drop of blood, its size was already several times the size of the original.

"This Gu worm grows so fast, it may be a puppet. Nalan Jinxiu frowned, and felt more and more that Saihuatuo must not be a good person.

"Puppet?" Ji Hongye had never heard of this kind of Gu worm.

"I've only seen it in medical books, this kind of Gu grows very fast, if you put it on a person's body, it only takes half a month, and it can turn people into walking corpses, and they can be controlled by Gu people. ”

"You're saying that this Gu can turn people into puppets?"

"If it's really a puppet, then it must be this role. I'm not good at Gu worms, but as far as I know, there is no other Gu that can grow so fast except for puppets. If left unchecked, Yunshui Zen Heart will soon become a puppet city. "Nalan Jinxiu is only now aware of the horror of this matter, what will become of a city without living people......

"Third brother, this matter is not trivial, do you want to report to the official first and control that doctor?"

Ji Hongye shook his head and said lightly: "We have enough people on our hands, we must investigate the matter clearly now, and we must not startle the snake." ”
