"Look at the toxins in Miss Li and Uncle Wang. On the surface, it looks the same as the original, but I used the original antidote to detoxify them, but it could only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and could not completely remove the toxin. Girl, do you know why? Looking back at Gu Mingqin, the old man's eyes were full of meaning.

"You're saying the toxins are stronger now than they were then?" Gu Mingqin guessed.

"Looks like you get it." Looking at the girl beside him, Gu Xin nodded with a smile, relieved again that he had not chosen the wrong person. "Indeed, through the examination of the pulse, I have found that the poison in Miss Li is even more strange, and it bears some resemblance to the plague thirty years ago, but it is not exactly. In fact, if it weren't for Miss Li's reminder, I wouldn't have thought of any connection between the two. I think that when the plague broke out, the people of Toray also received an antidote. According to my antidote, aggravate the toxicity. Therefore, the original antidote is probably a palliative rather than a cure for the current toxin. ”

"Is there really no way?" Gu Mingqin frowned, looking uneasy.

The old man shook his head: "If there is no way to do it, it is not true. Thinking that the plague was raging at the beginning, our brothers were locked in the room for more than half a month, and they still came up with a way to deal with it, and developed an antidote and vaccine, which was possible and can be now. Speaking of this, Gu Xin was obviously full of confidence. Then he sighed, "What's more, I have a feeling that the purpose of Toray people inventing this poison is not necessarily to kill people. ”

"Then he's ......"

"Girl, tell me, what is the ultimate purpose of the Toray people attacking my Huaxia?" Gu Xin seemed to have changed the topic, looked back at her, and asked this question.

After hearing this, Gu Mingqin couldn't help but wonder, how could his uncle ask such a question, does it have anything to do with the poison? Looking up at him, the old man nodded, and continued—

"Annexation. The Toray people attacked our China, with the fundamental goal of turning our China into their own territory. The territory of Dongli is not large, but it has a large population and limited resources, so it is inevitable that there will be more monks and less porridge. So over the years, Toray has been waging wars and attacking neighboring countries, and the most fundamental reason is to plunder resources. But it is only attacking small countries, and like it, how many resources can it have? Therefore, after annexing the surrounding countries, it set its target on our Chinese land. If it was more than a hundred years ago, the emperor was wise, politically civilized, and had strong national strength, and even if the small country gave him a hundred guts, he would not dare to provoke easily. But now the emperor is mediocre and incompetent, and the court is in darkness, not to mention that foreign countries are eyeing each other, even in China, warlords are fighting and the people are rising. In this case, how could that small country not be ready to move. ”

Speaking of excitement, Gu Xin coughed nonstop. Gu Mingqin stood behind him and hurriedly patted him on the back.

Gradually, Gu Xin calmed down and looked back at Gu Mingqin: "Girl, I don't understand politics, I talk to you too much, I'm afraid you don't understand either." I am telling you this, just to tell you that the Toray people are trying to annex our Great China, not to perish. ”

"Oh." Responding casually, Gu Mingqin was worried about the old man and was a little absent-minded. Seeing that the old man slowly calmed down under his own comfort, Gu Mingqin freed up his mind and considered what the old man said just now, "Uncle, you just said that the Toray people let our people devour poison not to kill people, so what?" ”

"Although now there are uprisings in various places to resist the violence of the imperial court.... Politics, but if foreign invasions are allowed, it is absolutely impossible for the Chinese people to agree. The so-called non-our race will have different hearts, and the truth that we all understand, Toray people naturally understand. There are so many people in Huaxia, it is impossible for Toray to kill them all, and in this case, the best way is to use something to control those who are disobedient......"

"Uncle means that the purpose of those poisons is to control?" Hearing this, Gu Mingqin was even more shocked.

Gu Xin nodded: "This is my guess, whether it is true or not, it still needs to be demonstrated." However, judging from the situation of Miss Li and Wang Laohan, I think it is not impossible. If they really wanted to kill people, they wouldn't be alive now. ”

"No, Miss Li said that she escaped from the village at the beginning, and everyone else ......."

"The question is here, why is she alive and everyone else dead?" Gu Xin asked rhetorically, intercepted her words before she spoke, and said, "Don't think that it's just someone to save you." If it was really poisoning, someone else would die, and she would also die. Because judging from the situation at that time, the two of them had no antidote at all. So I suspect that apart from this Miss Li, other people's deaths may have been caused by other reasons. ”

"What could it be?"

"I don't know, maybe Miss Li knows, but she keeps it secret, maybe she really doesn't know anything. But no matter what, I'll save her life. If the corresponding antidote and vaccine can be developed, then she will not be the only one who will be saved. Speaking of this, Gu Xin sighed lightly, full of emotion, looked back at Gu Mingqin, but instructed again, "I told you this just now, whether it is true or not, you must not say it." Even if one day, when he reaches the high hall, he Chen Jinxian reverses black and white and pushes the responsibility away, you can't say it. First, I am not completely sure, and second, if I talk about the matter and cause unwarranted panic, the world will definitely be in chaos. Do you understand? At the last sentence, Gu Xin made a loud noise, which caused Gu Mingqin to shiver and suddenly wake up.

"Granddaughter understands."

Today, for Gu Mingqin, it was too tired, sleepy, and tired, from body to heart. So I went back to my room, collapsed on the bed, closed my eyes and fell asleep without undressing, and slept deeply. But for some reason, I don't know when, she woke up again. I opened my eyes suddenly, stared at the ceiling, and had a faint feeling that something was going to happen, something?

"Hula--"

Suddenly, there was a strange movement in my ears. What was that?

He quickly rolled over from the bed and sat up, listening intently, even if he held his breath, he didn't hear any more sound. But Gu Mingqin believed that the sound just now was not an illusion generated by himself, but something must have happened. But again, what happened?

Gu Mingqin racked his brains and pondered this question while holding his breath and listening carefully. But to her surprise, really, there was no sound anymore. What's going on, is it really that I heard it wrong and hallucinated? Now, Gu Mingqin also had to doubt his judgment just now. A cold wind blew, forcing her to shiver, and instinctively lifted the quilt, ready to lie back to sleep. At this moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, she hurriedly stood up, took a random piece of clothing, draped it on her body, and rushed out of the door.

"Knock knock, knock knock......" Gu Mingqin knocked the door and shouted: "Second uncle, you open the door, granddaughter has something to ask you...... No one answered, he came to the door, put his ear on the door, and listened carefully, but there was no sound, which made Gu Mingqin's uneasiness intensify again, could it be ...... She didn't dare to think about it, the only thing she had to do now was kick the door open. Thinking of this, she took a few steps back, and was about to bang on the door, when a surprised voice sounded in her ears—

"Miss Gu, why are you here, what's wrong?"

"Miss Li?" Looking back at the comer, Gu Mingqin was also a little surprised, Li Fengmei? Why did she come out too? Could it be ...... "Did you just hear anything?" ”

Faced with this question, Li Fengmei was stunned for a moment, and then nodded vigorously: "I just came out because I heard the voice, what happened, could it be that Uncle Gu ......" Saying this, the girl raised her head and looked at the closed door in front of her.

Gu Mingqin shook his head: "I don't know, I just have a feeling that something seems to have happened to my uncle." I just knocked for a long time, but I didn't open the door, and I couldn't hear anything. With that, he put his ear to it again, as before, and couldn't hear any sound, "I'm going to knock the door open." ”

"I'll help you." Li Fengmei didn't say much, didn't ask much, pulled Gu Mingqin back a few steps, and the two of them worked together to rush towards the closed door.

Twice, three times......

Finally succeeded, as soon as the door opened, I saw a black shadow flashing by, flashing out of the window, Li Fengmei hurriedly ran over, ran to the window, and disappeared. Looking out, it was pitch black outside the window, only the shadows of the trees were mottled, and there were still human figures. Running really fast, thinking in her heart, Li Fengmei couldn't help frowning.

"Uncle, are you okay, wake up, wake up, wake up......"

Hearing a shout, Li Fengmei hurriedly turned around, and sure enough, she saw Gu Xin leaning against the ground next to the bed, her eyes closed, and her body crooked. Gu Mingqin squatted beside him, calling eagerly, shaking his body. Li Fengmei hurriedly walked over and said with concern: "How is it, is Uncle Gu okay?" ”

Gu Mingqin glanced up at her, but she didn't have time to answer. At this time, perhaps because of his shaking and calling, the old man beside him let out a moan, his lips moved, it seemed to be a sign that he was about to wake up, Gu Mingqin was naturally surprised, and when he slowly opened his eyes, she couldn't help but lean over: "Uncle, are you better?" ”

The old man looked at the two girls beside him, looked left and right, and was about to speak, but he couldn't help coughing heavily.

"Uncle, uncle, are you okay......" Gu Mingqin still called eagerly, and hurriedly patted him on the back. may have realized that the old man was still sitting on the ground, so he took his arm and helped her to the bed with Li Fengmei. Covered him with the quilt and walked over to the table, poured him a glass of water, and served him.

"Old Uncle Gu, are you okay?" Li Fengmei also sat on the edge of the bed, patted her on the back, and helped him calm down. Seeing the old man shake his head and let out a long breath, he seemed to be relieved. He raised his head and glanced at Gu Mingqin.
