Chapter 137: The Mullpool of Bloodwood

"No, it won't." As soon as Rong Li's words fell, Gu Huanli opened his mouth to refute.

Rong Lily was puzzled: "Why is Your Highness so determined?" ”

Lu Xuan understood what Gu Huanli meant by denying the lie, and immediately explained for him: "It's really impossible, the medical immortal predecessors of the Medicine King Valley have already carefully checked it, and there are no other poisons. ”

Although Lu Xuan knows that Rong Lie is erudite and knowledgeable, he has a specialization in the art industry, and there may not be anyone in the world who can compare with the Medicine King Valley in terms of medical skills, and they can't find out the poison, so Rong Lie will naturally not be so easy to see.

But Rong Li didn't think so, but raised his lips and smiled: "Then what if it's not poison that destroys the medicine field?" ”

"Not poison? What is it that can destroy an entire medicinal field like dead wood overnight? Lu Xuan was full of suspicion.

Only then did Rong lie speak: "If my guess is correct, maybe it's a mullion." ”

"Mullions? I have never heard of it. Lu Xuan was surprised, and then looked at the people around him, all of them were confused, and they had never heard of the word "mullion".

Rong Li then explained: "I have only seen in books, the mullice is a kind of degraded Gu worm, which can make the grass and trees lifeless as if they have been drained in an instant. ”

"It's so drastic that it's still degraded?" Lu Xuan suddenly felt creepy, and couldn't help but guess how ferocious and terrifying this thing should have been before it degenerated.

Seeing Lu Xuan's question, Rong Li's face suddenly turned heavy: "It is recorded in the book that the original name of this thing is Blood Ling, drinking human blood and stealing people's knowledge, once it enters the body, the person in the Gu will dry up like dead wood in an instant, and hundreds of years ago, this thing was wreaking havoc and making a certain tribe miserable. ”

"Is there such a thing? And what about later? The more Lu Xuan listened, the more novel and terrifying he felt, and he couldn't help but ask.

Rong Li's face slowly calmed down: "Fortunately, someone who is good at Gu art has developed a nemesis against this insect, which made it annihilated, but decades later, it was still found to be remnant, but the remnants of the blood mulllace no longer sucked blood, but fed on the sap of plants and trees, so it was renamed the mullpool by later generations." ”

"So my cousin suspects that someone deliberately put the mullions into the medicine field to cause the medicine field to be barren to this point?" Lu Xuan asked rhetorically.

Rong Liao nodded: "I just noticed that the color of this soil is quite abnormal, although the color of ordinary southern soil is dark but uniform, but you take a closer look at these in front of you." ”

When Lu Xuan heard this, he took a closer look, and saw that the color of the soil in front of him was sometimes dark and sometimes light, not at all like its own color, but more like it was defiled by something.

"Why?" Lu Xuan asked curiously.

Rong Liao then speculated again: "I think it is probably due to the distribution of medicinal herbs." ”

When Fang Rong was in the medicine field, he noticed that the distribution of the herbs was extremely sparse, perhaps because of their preciousness, it was inconvenient to hinder each other's growth, and the soil below the herbs was extremely dark, and the soil next to the herbs was normal.

"It is said that mullions live on plants and trees, die according to plants and trees, and after absorbing the essence of plants and trees, they will suddenly die like mayflies, and these seemingly dark soils are actually contaminated by the unclean things in the body of mullions after death."

Lu Xuan understood a little bit at this time: "No wonder the people in the Medicine King Valley can't find out no matter how they check, it turns out that it is not poison, it is actually the corpse of this thing, cousin, you are really amazing." ”

Lu Xuan couldn't hide his admiration for Rong Li, and praised him casually, but instantly made someone who had been silent on the side unhappy.

Thinking of this, Gu Huanli's habit of making things difficult came up again.

I saw him raise his eyes and look at Rong Li: "What Rong Gongzi said is just speculation, whether this thing really exists in the world is still unknown, and Rong Gongzi just said that the mullion will not suck flesh and blood?" ”

Rong Liao thought for a moment, but still nodded: "But no." ”

This made Gu Huanli seize the loophole, and saw him raise his lips and smile: "Then in that case, what is the explanation for the deer who suddenly died in the medicine field the night before yesterday?" ”

"Deer?" Rong Li looked at Lu Xuan with a confused expression, and she remembered that she had forgotten to mention this matter to him.

Seeing Gu Huanli asking, Lu Xuan spoke: "I forgot to mention to my cousin that a deer suddenly collapsed when passing by the medicine field the night before yesterday, and I brought it back for an autopsy, and I didn't notice anything unusual. ”

Rong Liyan was full of suspicion when he heard this, and he thought for a moment before he spoke: "Can you take me to check?" ”

Lu Xuan nodded, and then pushed Rong Li to another room where the corpse was parked, where the dead deer was.

Seeing this, Rong Li stepped forward immediately, the death of this deer was indeed extraordinary-

There are no injuries or diseases on the body, and it is not caused by poisoning, but it looks more like a natural death of old age.

Rong Li also made such a statement, which was no different from what he said at the time, and Lu Xuan immediately reminded him.

Rong lied but denied it: "But the lifespan of an ordinary deer is as long as 20 years, and judging from the appearance of this deer, it is only about five years, and it is impossible to die of old age." ”

In making this assertion, Rong Liao immediately ordered the deer to be presented as an autopsy instrument and dissected in front of everyone.

Lu Xuan had always been a civil official before, and she had never seen the slightest blood, but at this moment, she was disgusted and surprised to see her plain and proud cousin tear a deer apart.

However, Lu Xuan is not timid, he can really watch intently from the sidelines.

Until Rong Lie spoke: "The cause of death has been found!" ”

Hearing this, everyone approached one after another, and Rong Li continued: "The internal organs of this deer have been eaten up. ”

"Offal? But the night before I saw it with my own eyes, it passed through the medicine field to a life, and it was only a blink of an eye, what could have such ability? Lu Xuan witnessed the death of the deer, and it was unbelievable to hear Rong lie at this moment.

Gu Huanli was thoughtful: "Since the mullpool is not bloodthirsty, then this deer died suddenly, could it be a blood mulllace?" ”

Hearing this, everyone trembled.

Fang Cairong's lies and the bloody extermination of the clan have already stood on end, if this thing reappears, won't it cause misery and danger to everyone?

Seeing that the words caused panic among everyone, Rong Li hurriedly explained: "No, the blood lattice lives on blood, and the flesh and blood of this deer are still alive, so it must not be the blood mullley." ”

In this way, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Xuan immediately looked at Rong Li: "Then cousin, do you know what the death of this deer is related to?" ”

Rong Liao suddenly fell into deep thought: "I think maybe it is a new species developed by some Gu makers based on the blood barrier, I haven't seen the specifics, and I don't know anything about it. ”

Speaking of this, Rong Li's face couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, Xu felt that he didn't help Lu Xuan in the end.

Lu Xuan saw Rong Li's thoughts at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward to show him a gentle smile: "My cousin has already helped a lot today, and it's not early, my cousin must not have rested well last night, so let's go back to the room early today." ”

Seeing Lu Xuan's gentle and considerate treatment of Rong Li, the vinegar jar in someone's heart suddenly flipped to the ground.

Rong Liao nodded in agreement, and Lu Xuan pushed him to Gu Huanli: "Your Highness, then the lower official will send my cousin back to the room first." ”

After speaking, Gu Huanli was silent, but left one step earlier than Lu Xuan.

Looking at his temper that generally took the wrong medicine for no reason, Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that his temperament had always been uncertain, and she had nothing to worry about, so she immediately sent Rong Li back to the room.

At that time, the person sent to find Ye Liufeng came to report: "The subordinates are incompetent, the Ye Divine Doctor has come and gone without a trace, and the subordinates and others have searched for no result, please punish Your Highness." ”

Originally, Ye Liufeng was taken by Gu Huanli just in case, he has always been idle clouds, wild cranes, and dragons who see the head but not the tail, Gu Huanli has known it since the first day he got to know him, and there is nothing to blame if he can't find him.

Gu Huanli immediately waved his hand, and the dark guard retreated.

Seeing that His Royal Highness was full of displeasure, Qin Xiao stood aside and hurriedly said comfort: "Your Highness doesn't have to worry, your subordinates see that Gongzi Rong is erudite and talented, maybe he can really find out about this matter." ”

Gu Huanli's ability to tolerate lies was in his eyes, and he naturally had a conclusion in his heart, but this case involved two strange and rare things, and he really had to be careful.

After being silent for a long time, Gu Huanli spoke: "Qin Xiao, pass the book to Wan Mei, and ask her to secretly investigate the people refining Gu on the rivers and lakes, especially in Jiangnan City, and report it quickly." ”

Qin Wei received the order, and then passed Gu Huanli's dictation to Wan Mei.

Wan Mei was originally a person who mixed the rivers and lakes, and he was loyal to him only after being favored by Gu Huanli in his early years.

Gu Huan remembered that she was not a caged bird, so he let her live according to her own way and act at any time.

In the early years, the charm gave Gu Huanli a red eagle that he cultivated himself, this red eagle travels nearly 10,000 miles a day, and can recognize people, it is really a rare treasure in the world.

This time the time was pressing, Gu Huanli was sent to the red eagle, and it was sent to the hand of the charm in less than half a cup of tea.

After strict deployment, Gu Huanli temporarily put aside his dissatisfaction with Rong Li, and walked towards him and Lu Xuan with the overall situation as the priority.

It really didn't disappoint Gu Huanli, he was busy arranging it for so long, and Lu Xuan was still in the room when he came over.

Gu Huanli couldn't help clenching his fists, but finally endured it.

"Your Highness?" Seeing Gu Huanli take the initiative to go to the lying room for the first time, Lu Xuan couldn't help but be surprised: "Why is Your Highness here?" ”

Gu Huanli didn't pay attention to Lu Xuan, and only walked straight towards Rong Li: "Are you sure that the deer that suddenly died is really a new species that has never been known to the world?" ”

Rong Liyan was stunned when he heard this, hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Although I don't dare to claim to be rich and rich, I can know a little bit about all the strange things from ancient times to the present, this kind of Gu worm seems to be a blood mule, but in fact, it is not, I think someone is trying to develop something similar to the blood mullion, but what is the purpose...... I don't know. ”

Seeing that what Rong Lily said was reasonable and well-founded, and Gu Huanli did have some recognition of his talent, he had to listen to what he said for the time being: "This king will go to verify according to your opinion, but this matter may be strange." ”

"What's wrong?" Lu Xuan was surprised, the whole thing was confusing enough.

I saw Gu Huanli's eyes treacherous: "I'm afraid I have to ask that medical immortal to answer on my behalf." ”
