Chapter 223 Finale: Gu King
Chapter 223 Finale: Gu King
what?
Before Mu Lianzhi could say anything, several silver needles from Father Mu had already been inserted into Beitang Yi's body. Seeing her father's serious expression, Mu Lianzhi did not dare to speak any more.
At this time Si Chao came in and was also surprised when he heard it.
Before he could say anything, Elder Mu had already checked Beitang Yi's wound and felt his pulse:
"Strange, it's obviously a strange poison, how come you are fine?"
"Dad, are you seeing things? Maybe they are just similar?"
Mu Lianzhi was very nervous.
"How could that be? 'Ghost Mansion Line' is famous for its ability to kill with one blow. The most notable feature of the wound is that it will leave a red line. If the wound doesn't heal, the person will not die. Even though his wound is shallow, it's obviously bleeding..."
Murmuring, Mu Lao felt his pulse again, and then said:
"Look at him, don't move, and don't touch his wound, especially the blood. I'll go get something to take it out first."
Turning around, Mu's father left in a hurry. When he came back a moment later, he was holding a wooden box in his hand. When he opened the box, there was a toad shining with golden light inside. Mu Lianzhi was shocked.
He asked someone to get a bowl of clean water, and Mu Lao dripped a few drops of medicine into it. Then, he asked Beitang Yi to lay his arm flat and cut open his wound. Mu Lao put a straw on it and asked Si Chao to help hold one end with tweezers. He sucked the other end with the toad's mouth and took the bowl of water. Soon, something like a red nematode floated to the water.
Looking at Beitang Yi's wound again, the faint red line had disappeared.
Everyone was shocked.
Si Chao was surprised. He didn't expect that the place in Beitang Yi was actually the poison that he had only heard of, and that Mr. Mu not only knew about it but also knew how to cure it.
After cleaning up everything, Father Mu took Beitang Yi's pulse again, re-opened his wound, scraped off the burnt part, applied medicine, and then re-bandaged him.
"Dad, please check. Is he okay?"
Mu Lianzhi felt so distressed as she wiped the cold sweat off Beitang Yi's forehead.
After glaring at her, Mu Lao snorted and looked at Beitang Yi again:
"You are so lucky! After being poisoned by a thread, even a top-level expert would be lucky to survive for a cup of tea, but you were able to treat the wound and act like nothing happened."
"What's this little bit of pain? His arm must have felt like it was being roasted on fire after being poisoned. You are really patient. If Zhizhi hadn't just discovered it, would you have been prepared to endure it and experience the pain of being burned by a thousand flames?"
"You may be able to save your life, but I'm afraid you can't escape the crime!"
Although he was scolding, Mr. Mu was very serious and felt relieved in his heart that his daughter was responsible even though she suffered.
"This poison is from Lingnan. It's rare here. If there's even a barely visible wound, and it gets in contact with that red liquid, you'll be infected to varying degrees. At the very least, you'll be disabled, and at the worst, you'll die."
"This poison can only be sucked out. It's easy to detoxify, but even if the drug addict is willing to exchange his life for his own, it's actually not easy to do because this poison is quite strange. Ordinary people or objects can't suck it out. It needs to be sucked out with a highly toxic object. This is why I just used a golden toad and a catheter. The golden toad's poison attracts it, so this method can drain the poison out without sacrificing the golden toad."
"This rare golden toad, I have only had two in the past ten years, it is also very precious."
As he spoke, Mr. Mu stroked the box under his palm as if it was his treasure.
"How could you be poisoned like this? Who do you have such a deep hatred with? How can you be fine after being poisoned like this?"
As soon as Elder Mu said this, Si Chao and Beitang Yi's faces changed several times. They exchanged glances, Beitang Yi nodded, and Si Chao bowed to Elder Mu:
"Thank you for your guidance and life-saving grace, old man!"
Afterwards, Si Chao sent the servants away, closed the door, and told Mr. Mu the whole story.
The general meaning is that they were ordered by the emperor to pick up someone these two days, and they were assassinated on the way back. Beitang Yi was accidentally cut, and the reason why he was fine was because he was poisoned seven years ago and was raised as a Gu King by the emperor. He was also told that when the Gu King attacked, red vine patterns would appear on his neck.
Finally, Si Chao knelt down directly:
"Old sir, I also know a little bit about medicine. I was the one who treated the general's injury over the years, and I knew he was fine, but I didn't know he was poisoned by a thread. Please take another look at my general and see if the Gu King in his body can be removed."
Only then did she realize that there were so many things going on. Mu Lianzhi was so shocked that she looked at her father unconsciously:
"father?"
"No wonder~"
After examining Beitang Yi in detail, he called Madam Mu in to study the experiment together. In the end, the conclusion they came to was beyond everyone's expectations.
"Are you saying that the Gu King died in his body a long time ago? This, this is impossible!"
Si Chao was the first to raise a question:
"Although he doesn't need an antidote and doesn't have obvious symptoms of an attack, if he has an attack, those people with Neutron Gu will also have attacks, which will be more serious than his."
Turning around, he wanted to call Yingfeng over, but when he turned around, Si Chao remembered that they were at the Mu Mansion, and this time, except for him, no one else came with them.
"There's nothing strange about this. To be more precise, he is the Gu King. Do you think you understand?"
After thinking for a while, Madam Mu explained:
"To put it simply, the poison he was poisoned with back then might also be a Gu. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, so the two poisons conquered each other. I don't know if it's because of his physique or the special Gu. It should be that the Gu King has merged into his bones and blood. Or you can simply understand that he used a special method to turn himself into a human Gu, a real Gu King, so he is immune to all poisons. Even if there is a reaction from a thread, it can't take his life."
"I've read an ancient book before, which mentioned how to raise a human Gu, but this method is very toxic and difficult to raise, so it's just a record and a legend. He must have merged with the Gu by chance."
"His body is now no different from that of a normal person, and he has benefited a lot from it. Maybe this is God's will."
"It's true that man proposes, God disposes."
"Don't worry, there is no living thing inside him. There is no need to take it out. No Gu can resist the temptation of the Heavenly Silkworm Gu. The fact that there is no reaction in his body at least shows that he is not affected by any manipulation of the Gu worm, so he is fine."
"The reason why he still retains some marks of the poison may be the same as the thread that connected him. It is tangible but not physical. We just haven't found a suitable way to eliminate it."
Nodding, Beitang Yi said:
"If that's the case, then is there any way to free those who are controlled by the Zi Gu or no longer be controlled? At least we can ensure that their lives are safe."
"It can be removed naturally. Just use medicine to destroy it in the body. However, your blood is needed as a guide. And once it is completely removed, the controller will know. There is no guarantee that he will not come up with other tricks..."
Therefore, the root cause actually lies with the emperor. The emperor must completely give up the idea, otherwise it will only be a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.
