Hongliang lay peacefully on the bamboo bed, covered with a thick quilt, cold beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, condensing into shiny drops of freezing before they fell.

Er Lei was anxious to wipe the sweat for Hongliang, and with the cold in her hands, she asked in surprise: "What's wrong with my grandfather, his body is so cold and cold?" ”

Han Qingxin hurriedly lifted the quilt on Hongliang's body, and the inside of the quilt condensed to form a thin layer of ice chips, which turned into curling green smoke and melted into the air in an instant.

The pulse stopped, the pupils dilated, and Han had an ominous premonition, it could be that Hongliang was already a dead corpse, but if a person was dead, why would he continue to seep cold sweat out of his body. But the situation in front of him is inexplicable, his body temperature is low enough to cause the water to freeze, can he still survive at such a temperature?

Qijian's expression froze, and he said coldly: "He is still alive, but the way of existence is very peculiar. ”

How is it possible, the temperature required for the human body to condense into frost is at least below zero, according to medical common sense, people in a frozen state are basically equivalent to death, similar to the situation in science fiction movies where people are instantly frozen and then survived.

The process of freezing is a process in which water molecules are slowly arranged into an extremely ordered crystal structure. During this process, the hydrogen bonding forces between the water molecules are so strong that they begin to repel molecules other than the water molecules – that is, salts and other impurities that have previously been dissolved in water. When human blood and cell fluids begin to freeze, this means that many of the sodium, potassium, and calcium salts necessary for life will be precipitated by frozen water, and the remaining liquid will have a salt content so high that cells cannot tolerate it at all.

Han Qingxin looked at Qijian questioningly, expecting his statement.

Nanama said in a deep voice: "It's a little weird, he is indeed alive, he should have been put under some kind of spell to seal the potential of his whole body, but he also maintained his life." ”

Erlei looked worried and said in surprise: "Then is there any way to save my grandfather?" ”

Han Qingxin was skeptical of Qijian's words, but Miao Jiang's witch Gu was too mysterious and he couldn't help but believe it, so he suddenly had a plan and said: "According to the five elements, pour water into the stove and steam it, it should be able to force out the cold poison in the body." ”

Qijian secretly hurt himself, shook his head, and said: "Miao Jiang's witch Gu is not as simple as you think, the Five Elements Witch Spell can change at any time, now it is characterized by cold poison entering the body, and the next moment it is very likely to be burned by fire." Moreover, witch Gu has never been distinguished, and there may be a source of Gu worm poison in his body. ”

Erlei looked sad and wept, with bursts of despair.

Han Qingxin comforted in a low voice, "Don't worry, Erlei, when the time comes, the great witch of your clan will definitely be able to save your grandfather." She looked at Nanami, who was bowing her head and thinking deeply, and then asked, "What should we do now, I'm afraid that Hongliang won't wake up for a while?" ”

Hiroshi's lips seemed to twitch slowly between his frosty face, caught in time by the staring Shichima, who turned out to be still awake and conscious.

This discovery made Erlei excited, and her tearful eyes shone brightly. Shichima bent down close to the corner of Hongliang's mouth and asked with concern: "Old man, how are you feeling now, do you know what's going on now?" How can we save you? ”

Hiroshi's lips trembled and he spat out a few words, his voice so weak that he could barely make out the words, and the muscles in his face were hard to stretch under the thin ice freeze.

But Er Lei obviously understood the shape of his mouth, and looked at the environment in the room in a panic, most of the children who grew up in the clan had a certain preliminary understanding and understanding of witch Gu.

The whole room was airtight and opaque, and the window was covered with a black curtain, obviously deliberately creating a living environment to adapt to the conditions for the survival of certain Gu worms.

Her eyes were glazed, and she suddenly realized it, and reminded in surprise: "It's Fujiman, it's Fujiman." ”

Han Qingxin asked puzzledly, "What do you mean, Fujiman?" ”

After hearing this, Qijian suddenly understood for a while, it turned out that it was not a simple Gu poison: "It is a kind of alpine plant unique to Tibet, why did I not expect that someone would use this special technique to close the five senses and six confusions of the human body." ”

Tibetan snow vine is a kind of vine plant that grows on the snow-capped mountains in the alpine region, suitable for various polar environments, with extremely tenacious vitality, cold and light, so it grows under the snowdrift, and the developed root system extends nearly 100 meters to the surrounding land.

Shichima added that the characteristics of this plant were revealed: "In the seventeenth century, Tibetan Esoteric Christians discovered the properties of this plant, and after the plant was improved, it was used for Gu poison refining by integrating Tibetan secret methods, and after transplanting Sherman into the human body, it would quickly extract nutrients from the organs, form a dense root system in the limbs, and penetrate the limbs. At the same time, it leads to abnormal body temperature, cold symptoms, and restricts the movement of human limbs. ”

Han Qingxin rolled up Hongliang's sleeves, only to find that a series of blue-green vine plant roots appeared under the surface of the crumpled skin.

It is hard to imagine how someone could have the idea of planting plants in the body of a living person, and there are thousands of ways to kill a person, so why torture a person like this.

Han Qingxin looked down at the time of the watch on his wrist and said, "It's okay if these roots are removed, now the time is in a hurry, I don't know what the situation is on the side of the bamboo building." ”

The plant roots of the snow vine are faintly entangled in various human nerve lines and blood vessels, absorbing nutrients in the blood and growing rapidly.

Shichima didn't pay any better attention to it, and said, "I only have a way to suppress it temporarily, and use the characteristics of snow vines that like cold and heat to temporarily control their growth." ”

He looked at Erlei, and he really didn't want to reveal the rest of his words, but he had to say: "They didn't think about saving Hongliang's life at all, this is just a method of torturing people, and the final result is that Xue Man sucks up the nutrients in this body, breaks out of the body, and completely turns the person into a plant." ”

At present, the best way is to control the growth of the snow vines first, so that Hongliang can temporarily regain consciousness, I hope that during this time, it can help the form of the bamboo building, judging by the insight of the seven rooms, Hongliang will definitely not survive in the end.

"You go boil a bucket of hot water first, sprinkle a lot of salt, and you're still stunned about what to do, go quickly."

Shichima frowned, and commanded with a sudden irritation.
