Chapter 2268 The Miao Youth Loves Me 30
Jinchen prayed every day for the remaining days.
At least that's what the elders think.
But during the prayer, the elders did not dare to disturb the Son of God and could not speak.
After the prayer was over, Jinchen took Nan Yixing and disappeared without a word.
If you want to find Ah San to pass on the message, Ah San knows very well who he follows to get the meat, so he agrees verbally but keeps silent about it behind the scenes.
It's funny. He mentioned Jinque in front of the young master at this time. Does he think that his life is not worth the young master to play with?
Until the end of the prayer and the day when the high priest was about to lead everyone out of the forbidden area, Jin Que never saw Jin Chen again, and the elders gradually stopped mentioning him.
At the corner of the mountain road, the Miao King’s silver crown dazzled people in the morning light.
Jinchen walked in the front, swinging his silver bell chain, occasionally kicking a few falling stones, startling a few tits on the roadside.
"The young master is back!"
Several young villagers rushed forward cheering, but suddenly fell silent when they saw Jinque.
He Mo Ning exclaimed, and hurried over to half-hold him. Jin Que's white collar was covered with traces of cold sweat, and his lips were pale.
"Brother Jinque, what are you doing?" He Mo Ning's fingers were shaking and he almost knocked over the medicine basket.
Jinque didn't have the strength to speak, and the next moment he was helped away by the people brought by King Miao. It seemed that they were prepared.
Nan Yixing doesn't want to keep a secret for anyone.
He slowly brushed off the spider webs on his sleeves and said, "It's just to remove the life-threatening poison."
Before he finished speaking, there were intermittent gasps coming from under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village.
Jinchen held a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth and squinted his eyes to see that the veins on the back of King Miao's hand, which was holding the silver staff, were bulging.
The young people who were on good terms with Jinchen were cheering and moving to get the rice wine, but a few white-bearded old men gathered together, and the sound of their silver ornaments colliding was mixed with a few muttered words like "ancestral teachings" and "backlash".
There is one last step to praying for blessings. Jinchen followed the high priest towards the ancestral hall. Before leaving, he looked back at Nan Yixing and said, "Brother, go back to Lingcao Hall to rest. I will come to you after I finish."
Nan Yixing nodded and watched Jinchen's figure in the purple gauze robe disappear around the corner.
Just as he was about to turn around, the Miao King's voice came from behind him, "Did you remove the poison?"
Nan Yixing paused, lowered his eyes and touched the silver bracelet on his wrist, "Yes."
King Miao exhaled foul air and sighed deeply, his cloudy eyes falling on Nan Yixing, "I heard from the elders that Jin Que almost didn't make it."
"Don't worry, King Miao. I used the best elixirs and formations from the South Gate. Jin Que will not die."
"And...you should see the scar on Jinchen's heart."
Nan Yixing unconsciously stroked the lines on the medicine bag with his fingertips, "In the past, I had my heart cut out to take blood, and the old wounds overlapped, which is really painful."
Nan Yixing paused, then turned back to look at King Miao, "I forgot that you wouldn't feel sorry for him."
Smoke from the village rose up, and in the distance came the sound of young men chatting and laughing over a glass of rice wine.
King Miao knocked his silver staff in silence, "Jinchen is the young master, and I have treated Jinque badly, so..."
"So he deserves to suffer?"
Nan Yixing suddenly interrupted, his voice still calm, but it made the old people behind King Miao breathe softly unconsciously.
"Jinque's fate is fate, but Jinchen's is not?"
"Even if Jinque dies, it is his own fate. It is better than dragging Jinchen to suffer."
King Miao's hands trembled slightly and he did not respond.
Nan Yixing turned and walked towards Lingcao Hall. In the twilight, his back was as tall and straight as a green bamboo. "I hope King Miao will not let Jinchen see Jinque these days. I will make him a calming soup tonight. He needs a good sleep."
The crisp sound of bronze bells came from the direction of the ancestral hall, startling a group of crows returning to their nests.
King Miao looked at the darkening sky and sighed heavily.
-
ancestral hall.
Jinchen entered the worship hall alone, muttering the blessing words given by the high priest. Suddenly he opened one eye and turned his head to hear the sound of the high priest leaving outside the door.
As soon as the noise over there died down, Jin Chen stood up quickly and looked around at the worship hall that was engraved with totems.
[Hey, there are so many offerings! ]
Ling Gungun mentioned it casually.
Jinchen randomly picked a few fruits and threw them to it, without feeding those strange insects, and continued to study the patterns.
On the first night they entered the forbidden area, Nan Yixing showed him the strange pattern captured by the camera, which was similar to the Gu pattern on his heart.
Therefore, they believed that the life-changing Gu was not simply because the Miao King could not bear to see his eldest grandson die of illness, but the deeper reason was some secret within the village.
Qianping Village is not very big, and almost all the ancient books and magic skills passed down are locked in the ancestral hall, so it is not difficult to find them.
Jinchen patted Linggun's head and asked, "Are you full?"
Tuanzi made a sound and stood on Jinchen's shoulder, looking down at the ancestral hall. His search speed was much faster than that of the naked eye.
Soon, Ling Gun Gun patted Jin Chen's face and turned to the right. [Found it! The underground secret room on the right!]
Jinchen found the secret room.
Enter the secret room.
After almost demolishing the secret room.
Finally found the ancient print that contains the secret of the life-substitute Gu.
After deciphering the secret of the print, it turned out to be closely related to the blood-stuffed mother.
The mother of the live Gu drinks the blood of living people, and the mother of the corpse Gu gnaws on the bones of dead people.
And they come from the Gu King sealed at the bottom of the amber coffin in the deepest part of the secret room.
The two Gu Mothers can raise almost all the poisonous Gu in the village. They are replaced every two hundred years and are born by the Gu King. During the replacement period, there will be unrest in the village, and the Gu King will select a newborn to accompany the Gu Mother at the same time. Until the Gu Mother is fully mature, the newborn will be exactly twenty-five years old and will obtain all the inheritance about witchcraft and be able to control the Gu Mother.
Jinchen turned to the high priest's letter record and found that Jinque was the one chosen.
Unfortunately, Jinque has been a sickly child since childhood, and no one can guarantee that he can live to adulthood.
So after discussion, the elders finally decided to plant a life-replacing Gu on his original body, who was a few years younger than him, in order to prolong Jinque's life.
"Such a losing business."
Jinchen muttered that Jinque would be twenty-five next year. Not only would he be able to recover by then, but he would also be able to obtain some crappy inheritance and control the Gu Mother.
He, on the other hand, had nothing. Not only did he suffer pain, but he also lost several years of his life in vain.
Anyone who can tolerate this is a fool.
Jinchen crumpled the letter in his hand and put it back. He stroked his chin and looked at the two bronze tripods, then looked at the entrance of the amber coffin pressed by the bronze tripod.
It would be better to let the Gu King make another choice.
Go closer and take a look at the two mother Gu.
"……hiss."
It's so ugly. What's the point of controlling this thing? Even if I have this ability, I might still be trapped in this Qianping Village.
It only took Jinchen two seconds to reject this idea.
But we can't let Jinque and those elders who have evil intentions get away with it.
Jinchen picked up the jumping Ling Gun Gun and looked at the two little eyes in the dumpling form, "What do you think about holding an election with prizes?"
【Explain in detail.】 Ling Gungun pricked up his ears.
