Chapter 245: The Antidote to Annihilation
Yun Yuhong was anxious, she was not interested in how the extinction came about, she only cared about how to get the antidote, but obviously, there was a reason why the hermit refused to tell her directly about the result. Yun Yuhong forcibly suppressed the eagerness in her heart, nodded and said to the hermit: "Uncle, please speak." ”
The hermit poured a cup of tea and gave it to Yun Yuhong and said, "This matter is a long story, and it has to start from the beginning of the establishment of the Five Kingdoms. Before the current five kingdoms of Moyun, Zeyu, Ruifeng, Chiyan, and Yuxue, this continent was ruled by a powerful empire, but when it came to the last monarch, he was very brutal, displacing the people and making the people angry. In many places, the people rebelled when they couldn't survive, but this monarch had a very strong, very powerful army, and this monarch also had a strong martial arts, so those who resisted were not successful. ”
The old man sighed and paused before continuing: "This monarch later fell in love with Xia Qiongfeng, the first beauty in martial arts at that time, but this first beauty was already the wife of Bai Yuanyang, the first divine doctor at that time. But the monarch didn't care about this, he still snatched Xia Qiongfeng back to the palace. Bai Yuanyang lost his wife and hated the monarch to the core, but he was not the opponent of the monarch in terms of force, so he had to choose poisoning, so the first divine doctor no longer studied medical skills, but began to study poisoning and poisoning. ”
"Then this annihilation was researched by this miracle doctor?" Yun Yuhong couldn't help but interject. She was still anxious to know the answer, and she was not very interested in what happened.
The hermit nodded and said: "At that time, Bai Yuanyang studied more than a dozen kinds of poisons, but unfortunately, the poisons are all flavored or colored, and no matter how careful they are, they will be detected by the monarch, so Bai Yuanyang is determined to study a colorless and tasteless poison that people can't detect to poison the monarch." Later, he found a rare red beetle, which is highly poisonous and will die soon after being bitten, so Bai Yuanyang raised several such bugs. Because this insect likes heat, Bai Yuanyang brought it to this Yan Mountain, and later he found that this beetle liked the phoenix flower growing on Yan Mountain very much, so he took the phoenix flower to feed it. ”
"Isn't the phoenix inherently poisonous?" Yun Yuhong became curious.
"It's poisonous, but it's not very toxic, and it won't kill people, but after being bitten by this beetle, it will absorb the venom in the beetle's mouth and bring it with great poison."
"So, this beetle is not the antidote to extermination, but the origin of this poison?" Yun Yuhong felt a little lost in her heart, her only hope was shattered, is there really no solution to extinguish this poison?
The hermit nodded and said, "This beetle is indeed not an antidote to extermination, you listen to me." ”
Seeing Yun Yuhong nodded, the hermit continued: "Bai Yuanyang has studied for several years, and finally researched a strange poison that is colorless and tasteless, and people can't guard against it, he hopes that this poison can kill the monarch and destroy this rotten country, so he named it extinction." After destroying Xia Qiongfeng's hands and poisoning the monarch, so the five generals under him split the country into five countries, Bai Yuanyang could have taken out Xia Qiongfeng, stayed away from the dispute, and became a pair of fairy couples, but it was very unexpected that Xia Qiongfeng was pregnant, and the child was the monarch's. ”
Hearing this, Yun Yuhong also sighed, providence makes people, this child is too inopportune, everything that was originally beautiful may change because of this child.
Sure enough, the hermit also sighed and continued: "Xia Qiongfeng insisted on giving birth to this child, but Bai Yuanyang hated the monarch to the bone, how could he be willing to raise a child for the monarch, the two had a quarrel over this, and finally broke up unhappily, Xia Qiongfeng went away to Zeyu Jade Girl Mountain alone, Bai Yuanyang went to Yuxue to build a medical valley, the two of them exhausted their efforts for more than ten years in order to be together, but in the end, they divided their things for this child. ”
Yun Yuhong asked: "These two people are one south and one north, are they really like this?" ”
The hermit smiled and said: "So fate is a very wonderful thing, the two of them went north and south, it was a momentary gamble, and after a long time, both of them regretted it a little, but no one could pull down the face and give in first." Later, it was rumored that the phoenix flower had poisoned people's lives, and Bai Yuanyang remembered that he might have left a legacy when he raised insects in Yanshan, so he came to Yanshan to get rid of all the phoenix flowers and red beetles. It's just that the flowers are easy to get rid of, but the bugs that burrow in the ground are difficult to do. And Xia Qiongfeng also knew about it at the time, so she also came to Yanshan to help in the name of pest control. ”
"How can Xia Qiongfeng help, she can also heal, no, she knows witchcraft." Yun Yuhong exclaimed.
The hermit nodded and said: "Yes, she doesn't know medical skills, but she is a descendant of the Wu clan, she can use Gu arts, saying that it is Gu arts, in fact, it is to raise some Gu worms, and it is undoubtedly a good way to deal with insects with insects, but don't forget, the red beetle is highly poisonous, and Gu worms can find it, but they can't kill it." In order not to let this insect harm people again, Xia Qiongfeng used his natal Gu to lure out these beetles that had bred a lot and burned them all to death, but Xia Qiongfeng was accidentally bitten by this insect. ”
"Xia Qiongfeng was also poisoned, so can she be saved?" Yun Yuhong hopes that Xia Qiongfeng can survive, as long as she can live, Bai Ziyu has hope.
The hermit nodded in anticipation of Yun Yuhong. Yun Yuhong breathed a sigh of relief, but heard the hermit say: "Xia Qiongfeng has a natal Gu, so the poison in it was sucked out by the Gu worm, which delayed the poison time, and then rushed back to Jade Girl Mountain and found out that the snow silkworm was taking drugs, which saved his life." ”
"So, it is the snow silkworm that can detoxify, as long as you find the snow silkworm, you can save Yulang, right?" Yun Yuhong said happily.
The hermit sighed and said, "The snow silkworm is a sacred object of the Wu Clan, and the Wu Clan will not give it to others. And, where are you going to find the Witch Clan now? ”
Yun Yuhong was stunned, yes, she traveled all over the world, but she really didn't hear where this witch clan was, but she knew that there were some witch people in Zeyu, but their identities were very secret, and the people of Zeyu were also very disgusted with people who knew witchcraft, saying that witchcraft harmed people, and they would be burned to death if they were caught.
The hermit sighed again and said: "Xia Qiongfeng gave birth to a boy for the monarch, and this boy was bent on recovering the country when he became an adult, and used witchcraft to kill many people, and later the five kingdoms joined forces to destroy the witch clan. And in the next hundred years, there will often be people from the Wu clan who want to rebel in Zeyu, so Zeyu Country is also suppressed. In the end, I heard that there was a princess of the Wu clan who was willing to go to Zeyu Palace as a concubine, and asked the then Zeyu monarch to let the rest of the Wu clan live, and the life of the descendants of the Wu clan was better, but after this period of killing, there were not many Wu people left, and they were all hidden, and they were not common in Zeyu. ”
Yun Yuhong lowered her head, the hermit was telling herself that there was a way to save Yulang, but it was very difficult to find, and it was possible that he couldn't find it at all. But as long as there is a glimmer of hope, how can you give up easily. Is the witch clan.,Isn't the lover a witch.,Go find her and ask for clues yourself.,Maybe... Maybe this is the silver lining of Yulang.
Yun Yuhong raised her head firmly and said to the hermit: "Uncle, are you saying that the Wu Clan is difficult to find, but I know a person from the Wu Clan called Mistress, maybe she can help." ”
The hermit was stunned, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and then he looked at Yun Yuhong and shed two lines of tears, and muttered in his mouth: "Miao, Miao, is Mistress still alive, Miao..."
Yun Yuhong was also stunned, does the hermit know his lover, yes, this hermit should be a member of the Wu clan, otherwise how could he know so many ancient and secret things, how could he know the origin of extinction and how to detoxify.
It took a long time for the hermit to hold back his tears, but he said in the face of Yun Yuhong's inquiring gaze: "If you can find your lover, then there is still hope for everything, it's late today, you rest early, and you will leave early tomorrow." ”
Yun Yuhong understood that the hermit didn't want to talk more about his relationship with his mistress, and she didn't want to ask in detail, knowing that Yulang still had hope was enough for her, and her mind was all on the snow silkworm, and the rest would be talked about later. Yun Yuhong was extremely tired after a few days of traveling, and fell asleep.
The hermit looked at the night sky outside the sky, sat on the stone chair, sometimes smiled, sometimes wept, and stayed awake all night.
When the morning sun showed a little light, Yun Yuhong woke up. Bai Ziyu can support half a month at most, and now that five days have passed, she still has to rush to Zeyu, and she really doesn't have much time.
The hermit had already prepared the meal, Yun Yuhong was not polite, picked up the chopsticks and ate, said goodbye after eating, turned around and was about to leave. The hermit sent it to the door and said to Yun Yuhong to take care, Yun Yuhong hesitated, but turned around and asked, "Uncle, do you have any words or tokens for me to bring to my mistress?" ”
The hermit was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Don't tell your mistress about me, just let her think I'm dead if you don't know me or see me." ”
Yun Yuhong nodded, this was his choice, he had thought about it all night, if he still thought so, then he could only say that this was the best result, and she didn't need to do much.
Walking on the road, Yun Yuhong is still very anxious, there are still ten days to find her lover from here to Zeyu, even if she travels without sleep for at least eight days, if she returns to Moyun, no, there is not enough time, she can't sleep endlessly, and she can't guarantee that she can get the snow silkworm if she finds her lover, so it won't work to rush like this. Yun Yuhong was a little discouraged, this is a backward ancient time, not the 21st century with cars and airplanes, such a long distance, if you can get on a plane, it will be a day. But there are no planes here, and she is not a bird, so she can't fly to Zeyu.
