Chapter 243: The System of Intermarriage
Looking at the freshly baked pharmacist qualification certificate, Xia Yanru couldn't help but feel a little novel, along with the qualification certificate, there was also a nameplate brooch exclusive to the Pharmaceutical Association.
"The time to go to the border has been determined, and it will officially leave on the 28th, and I have asked Zhou Wei to prepare the supplies that need to be prepared, and you will have a good rest at home in the next few days." Ji Wenlin casually took the brooch in Xia Yanru's hand and took it for her, took two steps back, looked at it carefully, and said, "Not bad." ”
"This pharmaceutical association has made a lot of money, and the cost of this brooch is not low." Xia Yanru looked down and thought it looked good.
"The annual income of the Pharmaceutical Association is not a small amount, but there will not be a few pharmacists who can pass the assessment every year, so they are naturally willing to think more." Ji Wenlin explained with a smile.
"Also, after all, the pharmaceutical association has been established for so long, and it is supported by many pharmacists, so it is normal for the income to be high." Xia Yanru nodded in approval.
"I got in touch with Wu Weijun in the morning, about the Pharmaceutical Association, he did check for a long time, but there is too little useful information, it is currently known that in the Pharmaceutical Association, there should not be many people related to the 'elixir', and most of them are from the senior level of the Pharmaceutical Association." Talking about business, Ji Wenlin thought of the conversation with Wu Weijun.
"If it's a senior member of the Pharmaceutical Association, then maybe it's Ling Kun." Xia Yanru rarely makes such intuitive conclusions, although it is still in the category of speculation.
"I can't rule out this possibility, but in the process of their investigation, Wu Weijun's performance has not been particularly abnormal, so it can only be guessed, and definitive evidence is needed." Ji Wenlin nodded, Ling Kun's performance was too perfect, but it gave people a very strange illusion.
Xia Yanru lowered her eyes and thought, even if a person wants to disguise, he will not wear a mask all the time, there will always be a moment when he takes off the mask, Ling Kun is indeed a person who is good at hiding his true personality and emotions, but he still has to find the right direction, and he can always find out the flaws of the other party.
Seeing that Xia Yanru didn't speak, Ji Wenlin paused for a while and continued, "Actually, there is an unknown secret about this Ling Kun. ”
"What's the secret?" Xia Yanru would not be stupid enough to ask the other party if she knew, since she said so, she must have found out what this unknown secret is.
"Ling Kun was born in the Musen tribe, and he is no stranger to the Musen tribe, perhaps most of the Musen tribe, which is an ethnic minority that has not been recognized because of the small population and various other reasons." Ji Wenlin pulled Xia Yanru to sit down on the soft couch by the window, and then said slowly.
"The Musen people have always been famous for being good at ancient medicine, but their intermarriage system has indeed continued the system of intermarriage within the clan since ancient times, and this marriage system has continued to this day, and there have been many cases of close relatives marrying, which has also led to the frequent early death of newborns in the Musen people." Speaking of this, Ji Wenlin frowned slightly, "Ling Kun also once took one of his cousins because of the rules of the clan. ”
"Cousin?" Xia Yanru was shocked, she thought that the marriage of close relatives was at most cousins, and this cousin was too much.
"Yes, although Ling Kun married his cousin because of the clan rules, he did have true love for his cousin, but unfortunately his wife died due to dystocia, one corpse and two lives, and the reason for dystocia seems to be because the fetus is too large and has extra limbs." Ji Wenlin continued.
"This is indeed an unknown secret, it is estimated that no one else will want this secret to be known by outsiders, but it is really powerful that you can find out, and it should be difficult for a minority like this to break into the interior to listen to the news, right?" Xia Yanru smacked her tongue, the so-called fetus is too large and has extra different limbs, and the death of dystocia caused by this situation is not rare, even if the Musen people are good at ancient medicine, it is difficult to guarantee a successful delivery.
"I heard from Wu Weijun that in order to investigate the Musen clan, they did spend a lot of time and energy, and even their comrades died during this period, but as long as it is a fact, no matter how deep it is hidden, there will be a day when it will be exposed." Ji Wenlin had only recently started to investigate the Pharmaceutical Association and Ling Kun, and this secret was naturally not obtained by his subordinates, if he hadn't contacted Wu Weijun, he himself would never have imagined that the person who had always claimed to the outside world that he would never marry for the sake of the pharmaceutical industry would have been married and almost had a child.
"Well, this system of intermarriage should have been abolished a long time ago." Xia Yanru sighed and shook her head, how many people have lost their lives because of feudal thinking, whether it is direct or indirect, it can be seen that this kind of thinking is harmful.
"Actually, that's not the point, I haven't said the most important part of the secret yet." Ji Wenlin said funny.
"And the important part?" Xia Yanru's eyes widened in surprise, and her heart suddenly chuckled, and she suddenly felt that she had overdone it.
"I said before that Ling Kun is true love for his cousin, since it is true love, he naturally can't accept the ending of one corpse and two lives, he refuses to bury his wife, and uses ice coffins and drugs to keep the body intact all year round, and the fetus that died in the womb is gone, it is said that he has been looking for a way to resurrect his wife." Ji Wenlin said faintly.
Sure enough! After listening to Ji Wenlin's words, these two words popped out of Xia Yanru's mind, and she felt that more secret things must be very understandable to people, even beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and combined with her own speculation about the relationship between Ling Kun and the 'elixir', she felt that maybe it might really be related to immortality or rebirth.
Needless to say, this is the pursuit of the 'elixir', but the rebirth point, if she hadn't been to the tomb of the first wizard of the Worship Flame Clan, You, she really couldn't have thought of it, after all, that wizard also tried to live immortality, and even sometimes, Xia Yanru has been suspecting that the corpse in that ancient tomb may not be the wizard You at all.
"If this secret is true, then Ling Kun must have something to do with the 'elixir', it's a pity that there is no tangible evidence, otherwise if you directly arrest and interrogate, you may be able to get a lot of useful information." Xia Yanru shook her head regretfully, not only because there was no tangible evidence, but also because Ling Kun was not an ordinary person, as the vice president of the Pharmaceutical Association, even if he wanted to be arraigned, the relevant procedures were not easy to do.
"Whether it's true or not, this person will be listed as the target of key investigations, but it is not appropriate to startle the snake at this stage, and the Wu Weijun has not given up arranging for people to keep an eye on him, if Ling Kun was not too cautious, maybe this matter would have had a result a long time ago." Ji Wenlin actually wants to say that the regular army's regulations have always had too many concerns, unlike Yifeng, who was born without worries and is often more efficient.
"Yes, no matter how cunning the fox is, there will always be a day when he shows his tail, if he really conspires with the 'elixir', I think I will know one day." Xia Yanru intuitively felt that there would be a head-to-head confrontation between her and Ling Kun, as a descendant of the Xia family, she always felt that there were still many secrets that had not yet been discovered, perhaps, she should make good use of this identity to obtain some useful value.
"Don't be cranky, your job is to protect yourself, and I'll be angry if I let me know you're disobedient and going into danger!" Ji Wenlin looked at Xia Yanru deeply, and added in his heart that if there was really such a day, he would definitely lock her up and even take away her freedom!
