Chapter 13: Truth 2
Xue Ling said, turned back to the two girls and said, "You two stand farther away, I want to say a few goodbyes to my father." ”
Hearing this, Sizhu and Siyu silently retreated.
Xue Ling watched quietly, his father knew that his time was running out, so at the last moment of his life, he just wanted to spend this last time.
She was silent for a moment before reaching out and neatly pulling up her father's sleeve.
His body was already cold and stiff.
There was no pulse, she could only check if there was anything unusual, the coffin was very dark, she picked up the candle flame next to her, and carefully discerned.
Finally, the gaze fell on the palm of the hand, and there was a very dark line snaking upward.
The lines are very dark and faint.
If you don't look closely, you can't see it at all.
Xue Ling held her breath, the guess in her heart was finally confirmed, and the expression on her face became more and more solemn.
Concentrating slightly, she opened her dress without hesitation, and brought the candle flame closer, and sure enough, the extremely faint dark line had spread to her heart.
As she expected.
This is the art of witchcraft.
In her previous life, she had practiced witchcraft, and she had always suspected that her father's death would be related to witchcraft, but at that time, her father had passed away for a long time, and she had doubts in her heart, but there was no way to confirm it.
Now, everything is in front of you.
What my father was in was a very haunting Gu worm of the Xue family, called Devouring Gu.
Gu devouring is mild, and those who are in the Gu will not die in a short period of time, but it hurts people's hearts and intestines, and it is difficult to treat medicine.
Xue Ling clenched his fist lightly.
This devouring Gu is not easy to detect, once the body is abnormal, I am afraid that it will be a lack of skills.
It is not possible to injure life in a short period of time.
Father has practiced witchcraft in the next volume, so, as a witch master, my father is extremely good at witchcraft.
Then, it is impossible for his father not to know that he is Gu poison in himself, Xue Ling recalled his previous life, but he never heard his father talk about it.
Not even a little bit of it.
Even when her father supported her body to give her medical advice, he would mention the witchcraft in the next volume, but not once did it appear that she was seriously ill because of the Gu.
Xue Ling frowned slightly, she could almost surmise that her father probably knew who this Gu was.
Father, I'm protecting that person.
Xue Ling looked at her father in the coffin, and the sadness in her heart was a little uncontrollable, but an indescribable emotion began to slowly come to her heart.
The person whose father is willing to die to protect must be a member of the Xue family.
The father has the soft-heartedness of his blood relatives, and he also has concerns about the overall situation of the Xue family, or, perhaps, he doesn't want the three of them to be immersed in resentment after learning the truth.
It's a pity that she is not her father, nor is she the Xue Ling she used to be.
She doesn't choose to forgive just because her father protects that person.
Xue Ling investigated this Gu person in his heart.
Who gave the poison?
His father's medical skills are among the best in the Xue family, that is to say, he must have medical skills several times higher than his father in order to unknowingly give his father Gu.
Don't say that the Xue family, even if it is the entire land of Jiangling, no one has this ability.
If this is the case, then only the person that my father trusts the most will make him so defenseless.
Grandmother certainly won't.
Mother won't.
Well, only two uncles and two cousins remained.
The heir of the Xue family has been studying medicine since he was a child, and there will be an exam for witch doctors every year.
Those who are selected as witch doctors can heal people, and the unsuccessful heirs are mainly responsible for general affairs.
Those who can become witch doctors are more or less sorcery.
Xue Ling has no brothers, and Xue Ling's two cousins are naturally cultivated as inheritors of this generation, and the two cousins have studied medicine with their father.
The lobby brother Xue Yuan is sixteen years old, from the second room, with a taciturn temperament and average qualifications.
The second cousin Xue Hao is fourteen years old, from the third room, clever and likable, and has medium and upper qualifications, among which Xue Hao is the most fond of bypass witchcraft.
But in terms of age, the two cousins are unlikely.
Xue Ling clenched his fists, and a chill broke out of his back.
Although the second uncle and the third uncle are also veritable witch doctors, as Xue Ling knows, the two uncles have limited talents.
However, this Gu devouring technique in my father is not an extremely advanced Gu technique, so it can't be excluded from the two uncles.
Xue Ling shook her head, things were more complicated than she thought, and for a while, she couldn't tell who the murderer was.
But one thing is for sure, she is not in a hurry, in this life, what she has is time, everything, she will clear the clear.
Xue Ling plucked a silver hairpin from his head and said softly, "Daddy, I'm offended." ”
As he spoke, he pierced his heart with a silver needle and made a hole.
She bit her fingertip, and a drop of blood fell on her mouth.
All Gu worms are extremely sensitive to the blood of relatives.
Not long after his father's death, this Gu worm was restless, and if he used the blood of relatives as bait, he could lure it out.
After a while, sure enough, I saw a blood-colored Gu worm slowly crawling out.
Xue Ling neatly put it in a bottle.
Then close the bottle cap.
Just packed up.
At this time, the sound of footsteps came from far and near.
"Ah Ling." Jiang Yue called.
Xue Ling responded, closed the cap quietly, and put it in his sleeve.
Then he turned around and whispered, "Auntie, I'm talking to Daddy." ”
Jiang Yue nodded, snorted lightly, and said with emotion, "Your father has always loved you the most, praised you for your excellent talent, and was particularly dedicated when teaching you medical skills. ”
After saying two good things in a row, Jiang Yue's voice became lower and lower, as if he remembered something, and became silent.
Xue Ling's memory became somewhat clear.
The women of the family also learn some medical skills.
But it doesn't teach much.
Some of the core medical skills in the family are not taught to women, this is the unwritten rule of every family.
Each family will put an end to their ancestral medical skills and be brought to their husband's house by their daughter's family.
Xue Ling is sometimes very puzzled, her mother's medical skills are not inferior to her father's, but they are completely different from the traditional witch doctor's skills of the witch doctor family, and there is a unique feeling, the Jiang family naturally also has this regulation, where does the mother's medical skills come from, Xue Ling looked at her mother, her mother's eyebrows and eyes are still the same, revealing an elusive sense of mystery.
