Chapter 17 (1/2)
”Yes, it's Gu.”
Ning Luo nodded, ”I forced it out of Su Dingbang's body when I was treating him.”
”Mr. Su?”
Wei Canghai was surprised again and carefully took the jade bottle containing Gu insects from the young master's hand.
Then he shouted to his confidant next to him, took an inkstone and put it on the table. Then he opened the jade bottle and poured out the Gu insects.
As soon as the insect poured into the inkstone, it twisted its body crazily. The original body the size of rice grain became very round because it sucked a lot of blood in the jade bottle.
Like a red caterpillar.
”Devour God! How can it be such a poisonous insect? It's really strange. I haven't seen this thing for many years. ”
At the sight of the insect, Wei Canghai gave a light sigh and looked surprised.
”Wei Bo, do you know this kind of insect? Have you seen it before?”
”Tell me, young master, this kind of insect is called devouring God insect. It is an imported product and is not a kind of insect in China's dragon country. This kind of insect is very insidious. People who get poisoned by this insect will be drowsy and sleepy at first. Over time, they will fall into a complete coma. With the passage of time, their flesh and blood will be eaten by this kind of insect and be as thin as firewood. ”
”It is said that people who have fallen in love with such insects are actually sober and can clearly perceive everything in the outside world, but they just can't wake up. It seems that people are imprisoned in a narrow cage, and in the end they will suffocate people crazy and die alive.”
”It's very insidious.”
”It's strange. I only saw this kind of insect in Yanjing thirty years ago. At that time, a relative of a big man went to Nanyang for business. Unfortunately, he was poisoned by Gu. He specially invited a mysterious figure living in seclusion in Western Hunan to solve the Gu. The mysterious figure said at the beginning that it is extremely difficult to refine such insects. If you accidentally refine them, they will be eaten back and die. ”
”I didn't expect that old man Su was also infected with such poisonous insects.”
Wei Canghai explained the magic insect.
”Do you mean that this God eater comes from Nanyang?”
”Yes, although poisonous insects originated from the Dragon Kingdom, most of the books about the refining of poisonous insects were basically destroyed in that special era of the last century, leaving less than one ten thousandth of them. Most of these books are closely guarded in secret places in Yanjing, and few people can access them. This directly resulted in the loss of most of the skills of the Dragon kingdom in terms of Gu refining, in addition to some secret skills of Gu refining aristocratic families handed down from generation to generation in the southwest border. ”
”On the contrary, because of the war of resistance against Japan in the last century, some people who can refine Gu in the Dragon Kingdom left their homes and went to Nanyang to inherit Gu Shu there.”
”This God devouring Gu was refined by some people in Nanyang according to some Gu techniques of the Dragon kingdom.”
”Nanyang? A small Su family doesn't have much money and people don't have much energy. Why does it invite others to use this stuff? ”
Looking at the insects crawling around the inkstone, Ning Luo frowned.
A su Dingbang, at best, has a little influence in Jiangcheng.
There is only about one asset behind Su Qi.
For such a small amount of money, the other party used the God swallowing Gu, which took countless efforts to refine. It was a bit of a fuss.
”It's easy to say. Nanyang's poison refining world has been very chaotic in recent years. Maybe some people can do it to master Su for petty profits.”
”Of course, it doesn't rule out that the other party has other plans.”
Wei Canghai also frowned lightly. ”Young master, do you want me to investigate this?”
”Well, you go and investigate. I always think it's not that simple.”
”What does the young master mean?”
”I suspect someone is coming for me.”
There was a cold light in his eyes.
”For you? Who is so brave? ”
The young master is the childe brother of the five aristocratic families in Tangtang dragon kingdom.
