Chapter 120: She's the Dying?
"Gone?"
"It was my negligence, I didn't expect to have two doors in one ward."
Therefore, his men were only guarded at the front gate, and the people were taken away through the back door.
Wei Heng was silent for a few seconds and said, "Go to Nangong's house." ”
The current independent island no longer has a card retreat.
As long as you show the identity of the empire, you can enter and exit normally.
The car drove directly to the courtyard of the Nangong family.
A group of more than a dozen cars are all Maybachs, which shows the dignity of the identity of the comer.
The residents of the island stared closely at the direction of the car with a pair of eyes, and finally saw the car parked in front of the Nangong family.
As expected, the Nangong family really encountered something this time.
First, the old lady was critically ill, and this morning the new head of the family was shot.
At this time, who came to find fault with it!
Lin Hai, the housekeeper of Nangong, took the servants out to greet him.
"Mr. Wei, the old lady has asked us to wait here."
Mrs. Nangong asked people to take Nangong Jin away, and naturally knew that the person who saved him was Wei Heng, and he naturally had to thank him in person.
Therefore, Lin Hai did not dare to be a little slack.
"So, the head of the Nangong family was picked up by someone you brought in, why don't you say a word, what does it mean to secretly pick up someone like this?"
In the face of Night Entropy's angry accusation, Lin Hai bowed calmly.
"It's urgent, Mr. Wangye forgive me."
Seeing that Lin Hai's attitude was modest, his posture was lowered, and the night entropy was not good to attack again, he could only give up, followed in the footsteps of Wei Heng, and was greeted to the lobby living room.
"Mr. Wei, please take a seat, I'll go and invite the head of the family."
After a while.
Nangong Jin went to the living room with Lin Hai's support.
Nangong Jin's face was pale, but he still couldn't cover his prosperous face, although he was not confused, the elegant aura on his body could make people feel like a spring breeze.
"Nangong family master."
Seeing his father-in-law, the prospective son-in-law Wei Heng politely stood up to greet him.
"Mr. Wei, you're here."
"Your injuries?"
Wei Heng glanced over, and Tianming immediately got up and came to Nangong Jin's side, "Mr. Nangong, I'll help you sit down." ”
"It's okay, it's just rubbing the skin and flesh, it's not a big deal, and I have to thank Mr. Wei for taking precautions, as well as Mr. Ye's righteous rescue."
"The master of the Nangong family is polite."
"Steward Lin, you go and arrange an afternoon banquet, and I will invite Mr. Wei and others to a banquet at noon."
Lin Hai nodded, "Yes, family master." ”
After Nangong Jin saw Lin Hai leave, she changed her previous estrangement and looked at Wei Heng with a little excitement, "Xiao Wei, how are Ya'er and their mother and daughter?" ”
"Uncle, don't worry, they are all very good, this time, there is another important thing I want to tell you in person."
"You ...... Married? ”
Nangong Jin guessed it, too, both of them have come to this point, this is a matter of time.
"Yes, we got the certificate."
Wei Heng handed him the little red book he had brought with him, knowing that he must want to see it.
Sure enough, Nangong Jin's eyes lit up as she stared at Xiao Hongben, her eyes flashing with tears.
"You must be good to Ya'er!"
"I promise you, it will."
His life is too bitter, he loves Lan Yun but can't stay together, he has been separated for decades, and he has paid for the pain of lovesickness, but he is helpless.
Now, he wants nothing more than his daughter's happiness.
"The cause of the civil unrest on the island has been found." Wei Heng asked Night Entropy to present the information he had investigated to Nangong Jin.
Nangong Jin looked at all the evidence pointing to his mother and a foreigner named KING, and his face became heavier and heavier.
"Do you suspect my mother of faking illness?"
"I'll bring a doctor, Gu Tianming." Wei Heng glanced at Tianming.
Tianming got up, "Whether it's pretending, or if there is something else hidden, I can tell at a glance, as long as I can see the old lady with my own eyes." ”
"Good!" Nangong Jin agreed very dryly.
The biggest tragedy in his life is because he has such a controlling mother, but there is no way, he can't give up his biological mother.
After luncheon.
Wei Heng and others made an exception and were arranged to live in the Nangong compound.
Subsequently, Gu Tianming followed Nangong Jin to the Heart Cultivation Pavilion in the backyard.
"Master, the old lady has just woken up, please come in." The servant who took care of the old lady led them into the room.
As soon as he entered the door, Gu Tianming smelled a faint smell of herbs, which was very familiar and very unfamiliar.
"Mom, I'm coming to see you."
Nangong Jin sat on the edge of the bed, holding the old lady's dry palm, and whispered.
The old lady Nangong leaned on the back of the bed, and after hearing the voice, she slowly opened her eyes, and her wrinkled face pulled out a faint smile.
A pair of shrewd eyes are cloudy.
"Coming, I heard that there is a guest at home?" Nothing could be hidden from her.
"It's Mr. Wei who came, he helped us clean up the civil strife last time, and this time he went to the island with cooperation, and I left him for lunch and stayed to talk in detail."
"Cooperation?"
The old lady's hands trembled, and her tone rose a few degrees, obviously not very happy.
"Yes, cooperation." Nangong Jin repeated.
The old lady sighed and said, "It's up to you, anyway, the position of the head of the family has been passed to you, and you will be in charge of everything on the island in the future, and I can rest assured." ”
"Do you have any other commands?"
The old lady shook her head, her white hair meticulously combed and hung over her shoulders, and despite the twilight look on her face, the majesty of the person in control could not be ignored.
"No, you go down."
"Okay, then you can get some rest."
Seeing Nangong Jin get up, the old lady snorted from her nostrils, and then closed her eyes.
Out of the Heart Pavilion.
Gu Tianming spoke at the right time, "Mr. Nangong, has the incense in the old lady's room always been there or has it been recently?" ”
"Oh, this is mugwort leaf incense, it's always been there, at least twenty years."
Hearing Nangong Jin's answer, Gu Tianming pinched his chin thoughtfully.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Tianming shook his head, "Not for the time being, the old lady really doesn't have much time, you have to mourn." ”
If the person is not dead, it will make people mourn and change, Nangong Jin's face is not very good-looking, but he didn't say anything.
After returning to your accommodation.
He told Wei Heng everything he saw and heard.
"You're saying she's the one who is dying?" Night Entropy originally thought that Mrs. Nangong was pretending to be sick. Unexpectedly, it was really dying.
"That's right, it's described as withering, it should be ...... in half a month But her spirit feels like she can last a few more months, which is very contradictory! ”
In this regard, he has never looked away.
Wei Heng was always silent, not saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.
"However, there has always been a habit of smoking wormwood in the old lady's room, Mr. Nangong said that it has been twenty years."
"Do you think there's a problem?" Wei Heng raised his eyes and finally cut to the topic.
"If it's really smoked, that's fine, but I smell another herb, and I can't remember the name of the herb when I first smell it, just thought of it."
"What is it?" Night Entropy and Chen Cheng asked at the same time, as soon as the words fell, the two glanced at each other, and quickly looked away.
"Blood Dragon Grass."
Blood Dragon Grass is only recorded in ancient medical books, and this word cannot be found in modern medical books at all.
But Gu Tianming is not only powerful in surgery, but also more powerful in the cognition and application of traditional Chinese medicine.
He hadn't studied any herbs, but he couldn't find a living plant of this ancient and mysterious herb, Blood Dragon Grass.
He could only find the medicine powder ground to ash in the medicine museum, and through Wei Heng's relationship, he got a small dose as a study, so this taste was unforgettable for his lifetime.
Moreover, this kind of grass has another name, it is called the hanging life god grass, the ancient medical book records: before death, people smell its taste, smoke its incense, there will be signs of returning to the light, to continue life.
But this kind of grass varies from person to person, some people can, some people can't, so it will be pulled off the altar and disappear from the medical books without a trace.
In fact, Gu Tianming has studied for a long time, and once had a bold hypothesis, he thought that the effect of blood dragon grass can only be used as an auxiliary, and it may need another herb to be dissolved to exert its effect, and sure enough, it turns out that it needs to be combined with wormwood to let the dying person continue.
"Therefore, it has always been the blood dragon grass that is hanging the old lady's life, and she can't die for the time being."
Gu Tianming came to the conclusion that no matter whether the old lady was sick or not, she couldn't die for the time being.
But why did she pretend to be critically ill?
If she cooperated with KING, her purpose was to make Nangong Jin ascend to the throne, but she agreed to Nangong Jin to accept Wei Heng's help, so what was her idea?
It's scary to think about.
"Night Entropy, find KING's location, I want to see him."
"Boss, you want to see him? Aren't you afraid that this is a game set up by him? ”
"That's right, Mr. Wei, you can't take risks, from the moment I stepped into Independence Island, I had a not very good feeling, as if we were all in the trap."
Chen Cheng was right, from the moment they entered the island, they had already walked into someone else's trap.
Wei Heng's eyes were firm and could not be refuted.
On the surface, he was calm, but his heart was stirring up a thousand waves, hoping that their purpose was not what he feared.
KING'S WHEREABOUTS ARE NOT DIFFICULT TO DISCOVER, AND IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE THAT HE WAS NOT PREPARED TO HIDE IN THE FIRST PLACE.
It's night.
The Maybach was parked on the side of the road, the headlights were on, and it was impossible to see the people inside.
A luxurious Rolls-Royce slowly stopped in front of the Maybach car for the next second.
The car door opened, and a man in a black suit with the same color as the night got out of the car, and his tall and powerful figure walked to the front of the Maybach car wantonly, hooked his lips and showed a chilling smile, opened the back seat door and sat in.
"Hey!"
Facing his relaxed tone, Wei Heng looked even more gloomy.
"What do you want from me?" Wei Heng leaned back on the back of the chair and got straight to the point, not wasting time and not wanting to drag mud and water.
"Oh? Don't you know? Ha, I thought you knew all along. ”
KING HELD HIS CHEEKS AND LOOKED SIDEWAYS AT WEI HENG, THE CAR WAS DIM, BUT HE COULDN'T STOP HIS PEERLESS BEAUTY, EVEN IF A FACE WAS AS COLD AS ICE, IT COULD STILL MAKE PEOPLE CRAZY AND OBSESSED.
Wei Heng met his aggressive gaze, which reminded him of his dead cousin, and he felt sick to KING.
"As I said, I will make you feel that there is nothing, that everything you love and cherish is gone, and that you are left alone."
"So, you hit the Nangong family's idea?"
"Don't test me, you don't know what I'm going to do to the Nangong family now, but it won't take long for you to know. What, what else would you like to ask? ”
KING obviously has a typical Western face, but he speaks Chinese more authentic than the locals of Sichuan City, which is ironic for Wei Heng at this moment.
Because back then, his Sichuan dialect was taught by Wei Heng with his heart.
"Dare to touch her, I will make your life worse than death."
"Oh, is it? Come on, I'm already in hell anyway, and it's not bad. ”
KING smiled evilly, his eyes were like torches, staring at Wei Heng tightly, as if he wanted to imprint his face, but he ushered in Wei Heng's unwavering eyes, although his expression was flawless, but his heart cracked a bloodstain.
The few conversations between the two ended quickly.
They're both just testing each other, so this conversation is really just the beginning of their head-to-head confrontation.
"Boss, what did he say?" AFTER KING LEFT, NIGHT ENTROPY COULDN'T WAIT TO RUN OVER AND ASKED.
"Send additional manpower to be placed near Orchid Garden to inform Bai Lu to be on guard."
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Maybe it's just KING's voice, just to disrupt Wei Heng's rhythm.
However, what KING thinks of, Wei Heng will also think of.
But KING is better at making tricks behind his back.
It's hard to prevent.
Wei Heng looked at the road that had disappeared into darkness in the distance, it was time to point out someone.
This piece will be his last move.
Next.
With Wei Heng in his presence, Night Entropy's actions became more vigorous, and in one day, they stabilized their power on Independence Island.
This time, KING was obviously overwhelmed, and only had the share of the knife, and most of his forces were quickly eliminated.
The Nangong family regained the dominance of the independent island, and everything seemed to have returned to its former prosperity. In fact, the interior is dark and erosive.
"Uncle, I propose to completely open the independent island and attach it to the empire."
This is the only way out at the moment.
Otherwise, sooner or later, the Independence Island will degenerate and follow in the footsteps of the Golden Triangle.
A hundred years of isolation, driven by profits, have created some ambitious families, these people have long colluded with outsiders, hollowed out the fundamentals, and in less than a year and a half, the economy and management here will completely collapse.
At that point, Independence Island will be truly finished.
"You let me think about it again, I understand what you're saying."
Suddenly, Nangong Jin's face changed suddenly, she kept panting, and most of her face instantly lost most of her blood, as if she was about to turn her back on her breath.
"Tianming!" Wei Heng reacted extremely quickly to hold the crumbling Nangong Jin and shouted behind him.
Gu Tianming heard the sound and rushed in from outside the door.
"What's wrong?"
"He was sick."
The two helped Nangong Jin to the sofa and sat down.
Immediately after Gu Tianming gave him a series of first aid measures, he slowed down for a while, and sure enough, he was much better, and his face gradually improved.
"I have ...... on me There is medicine. Nangong Jin, who came to his senses, took out a small medicine bottle from his pocket.
Gu Tianming took it, opened it and smelled it, his pupils trembled suddenly, he was surprised, and looked at Wei Heng blankly.
"Feed him."
Gu Tianming no longer hesitated, poured out a small pill and fed it to Nangong Jin.
"I need to go back and rest, and I'll come back to you later."
"Tianming and Night Entropy send you back."
Fortunately, they were all in Nangong Mansion, so it didn't take much time to send him back.
When Gu Tianming and the two came back after sending them off, they immediately ran to Wei Heng.
Before he could speak, Wei Heng actually said, "That pill is a synthesis of wormwood and blood dragon grass. ”
Not a question, but an affirmation.
"Well, how do you know?"
"I guess."
"Boss, the more I listen, the more confused I become, isn't the old lady the one who is dying? Why does Mr. Nangong also need to use this medicine? ”
"So, from the beginning, our focus was wrong, in fact, Mrs. Nangong is fine, it is Mr. Nangong who has something!"
Gu Tianming exclaimed in surprise, admiring his reasoning very much.
