Chapter 2258 The Miao Youth Loves Me 20
grand ceremony.
The torches on the altar made the bluestone ground flicker. Nan Yixing stood in the front row of the crowd, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the tassels on the medicine bag.
When Jinchen walked slowly towards him wearing the Holy Son's robe, his breathing unconsciously stagnated.
The picture of a hundred poisons embroidered with silver thread was faintly visible on the dark purple robe. The silver ornaments were dazzling, and tiny pieces of light flowed with Jinchen's steps, bringing out the crisp sound of tinkling bells.
The young man had a silver ornament on his forehead, and the ruby in the middle hung between his eyebrows, making him even more captivating.
"Oh my god, the young master is so handsome." Chu Wan sighed behind Nan Yixing.
When Jinchen passed by, the silver bell chain gently brushed against the back of Nan Yixing's hand.
He then realized that he had been distracted. He lowered his eyes and saw Jinchen stepping over the fire altar. There were also silver bells wrapped around his ankles, which glowed eerily in the firelight.
[Well, the Lord God secretly looked at you many times, he must be obsessed with you too! ]
Ling Gungun naturally would not miss such an opportunity. After sighing, he leaned on Jinchen's shoulder and looked down upon the villagers.
Don't forget to make room for the red snake.
Jinchen raised his head and drank the holy wine. The people below the stage looked at him and felt that it was even more scorching than the strongest Mandragora in Miaojiang.
"Receiving the crown--" The elders and the high priest stood by to witness, while the Miao King performed the ceremony himself.
The silver crown pressed down on Jinchen’s braids, but the hanging pearl curtain could not hide the brilliance in his eyes.
The torches on the altar crackled and the villagers raised their glasses to drink the holy wine.
Jinchen stood on the high platform, his silver jewelry gleaming in the firelight.
He had a smile on his face, but his eyes would occasionally glance at Nan Yixing in the crowd.
"what!"
Suddenly, a villager knelt down on the ground, holding his stomach, "No, this wine... has problems!"
The crowd suddenly became commotion.
The people arranged by Luo Xiao immediately shouted in the crowd, "This is a punishment from the gods! The mountain god of Qianping Mountain does not recognize this Holy Son!"
"what happened?"
"My stomach hurts too..."
"Is it really that the gods are unhappy?"
Discussions arose one after another.
Jinchen narrowed his eyes and looked at the chaotic scene below the stage.
His red snake slid out of his sleeve silently, spitting out its tongue and observing everything.
Ling Gungun suddenly realized, [So this is the method of framing. ]
Jinchen pulled his lower lip with joy.
I thought Luo Xiao was going to play some shady tricks, after all, he couldn't find any problems with the wine.
It turns out that we still have to rely on gods as a cover.
After all, they are just simple villagers living in the mountains. Even Lingdan could not think of such a stupid idea.
[Ka!] Ling Gungun patted Jinchen’s braid.
The high priest frowned, "Quiet! Test the wine!"
Several elderly witch doctors immediately stepped forward and took out the Gu testing tools they carried with them.
They inserted silver needles into the wine jar and released a few golden silkworm Gu to test for poison.
After a moment, the leading witch doctor shook his head and said, "There is no poison in the wine."
"Impossible!" A villager curled up in pain, "Then why are we all... Is it really because the gods are unhappy?"
Luo Xiao stepped forward at the right time, his face solemn, "Maybe... I have a way to find out the truth."
He turned to Jinchen and said sincerely, "Saint... No, Young Master, for the safety of the village, can you let me try?"
Jinchen chuckled, and the silver bell on his wrist jingled as he raised his hand.
"Okay, try it."
Nan Yixing stood on the outskirts of the crowd, his fingers unconsciously stroking the medicine bag.
He noticed that Baishen was quietly retreating, his face extremely pale.
Luo Xiao pretended to take out an ancient tortoise shell and muttered something.
Just as he was about to "cast a spell", Ah San suddenly jumped out from the crowd.
"Wait, since it's not a Gu, maybe someone has poisoned it. Let's let Doctor Nan take a look first."
After saying that, without waiting for Luo Xiao's agreement, Asan and Jiutian came over, stuck out their butts, and pushed Luo Xiao away, leaving a place for Nan Yixing.
Luo Xiao: “…”
He snorted angrily, "Okay, Doctor Nan has superb medical skills, maybe he can solve it."
There's no way to solve it!
Luo Xiao just didn't believe that Nan Yixing could cure the blood poison of the blood poison mother!
By then, Nan Yixing and Jinchen will be embarrassed together, and he can just take advantage of the situation and turn today's ceremony into a good opportunity for him to shine!
Nan Yixing turned around and made eye contact with Jinchen on the altar. The latter curled his lips, indicating that he should take his pulse.
A few seconds later, Nan Yixing said to the villager, "It's definitely not poison."
Before Luo Xiao could be happy, he heard Nan Yixing's calm voice: "It's croton powder. There is croton in the wine."
"What???"
All the villagers were shocked and touched their stomachs.
"Oh... Now that you mention it, I seem to have some feelings..."
"Impossible! Nonsense!" Luo Xiao smashed the bamboo and wood, and the broken wood chips splashed into the wine jar. "Nan Yixing, what do you, an outsider, know about Gu poison! How could it be Croton?"
Nan Yixing looked calm as he twisted the brown powder with his fingertips. "When croton powder meets realgar, it turns into cinnabar color. This is the most basic pharmacology."
"Chu Wan, go get the antidote."
"Okay." Chu Wan nodded.
Luo Xiao interrupted with a sharp voice, veins popping out on his forehead, "This is clearly the backlash of the mountain god!"
Jin Chen on the altar finally spoke, as if he was surprised, "Luo Xiao, how do you know it's not Croton?"
"You even brought a tortoise shell with you to cast a spell? Even the mountain god is not as powerful as you."
Luo Xiao's face suddenly changed, and his fingers unconsciously touched the tortoise shell magic weapon at his waist.
"I...I am the son of a priest, naturally..."
"What a coincidence."
Jinchen snapped his fingers, and Gongzi immediately walked up to the altar carrying a white jade Gu jar, "I brought something with me too."
Luo Xiao's pupils suddenly contracted and he staggered back two steps.
"White... White Gu mother?"
The White Gu Mother can detect all the poisons that ordinary people cannot find!
But Jinchen is not yet the Holy Son... How can he invite the White Gu Mother!
The great elder slammed his copper staff to the ground, "Please ask Bai Gu Mother to test the poison!"
Jinchen opened the lid of the jar, and the white body of the Gu mother slowly squirmed.
He scooped up a ladle of libation and poured it into the jar. The tentacles of the White Gu Mother immediately moved wildly, but did not produce any poisonous threads.
"It looks like just ordinary croton powder." Jin Chen tilted his head and looked at Luo Xiao, "Don't you think so?"
Luo Xiao's face turned pale, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, "Yes..."
what happened!
In the crowd, Bai Shi also closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Do you want to test that again?"
Jinchen raised his hand again, and his slender fingertips pointed directly at the wine that Asan had brought out.
Luo Xiao and Bai Shi took a deep breath again.
Ah San immediately said, "Come to think of it, last night I saw Luo Xiao and this Nanmen... oh, the doctor who was expelled from Nanmen, sneaking around the altar, and that's when they changed the wine jar."
Jinchen scooped up the wine from the jar and poured it into the Gu jar.
The white poison mother suddenly rolled violently, spitting out countless blood threads that formed a cocoon shape.
The crowd was in an uproar.
"Blood...blood poison mother!" The villagers' legs went weak.
Jin Chen cried out, "It seems someone wants to use the name of God...", his purple eyes flashed with cold light, "to do harm to others."
The great elder pointed his copper staff directly at Luo Xiao, "You evil creature! How dare you secretly hide the blood of the mother of the Gu!"
Luo Xiao's face was ashen, and his complexion was like a color palette, sometimes blue and sometimes white.
The Miao King put his hands behind his back, "Luo Xiao... I believe that I have not treated you unfairly, but you hate my grandson so much and want to deceive the whole village!"
