The Miao people are good at using voodoo. The so-called voodoo is made from hundreds of poisonous insects. It is highly toxic and can be administered without anyone noticing. The most unpredictable thing is the onset time, which is completely controlled by the cultivator. .
Judging from the appearance of the old woman, she was already seriously ill.
"What kind of medicine needs to be sold, I will go there!" Ji Jie volunteered.
Only then did the old woman realize that there was someone else in the room besides Mei Duo. She sat up very vigilantly and asked, "Duo'er, who is he?"
"Grandma, he is the one who is willing to help us!" Mei Duo quickly introduced: "His name is Ji Jie!"
Ji Jie bowed and said loudly: "Ji Jie, my dear, meet my senior!"
"Ji Jie?" Grandma frowned and said, "Ji's surname is the surname of the Zhou royal family. Is it possible that you are from a noble family?"
Ji Jie nodded and said: "This boy is not talented. His title in Dazhou is Zhaowen Jun!"
"Zhaowenjun Jijie?" Grandma was surprised. It was obvious that she had heard of this name.
"Grandma knows him?" Mei Duo asked.
Grandma shook her head and said, "How could I know him? Duo'er, have you forgotten? Grandma is from the Central Plains and later married a Miao. Although I have lived in Miao land for more than thirty years, I still don't know about things outside. For those of you who know something, I heard someone told Zhao Wenjun Ji Jie’s deeds a while ago! My boy, everyone thinks highly of you!"
"Haha, thanks to the love of the world, I am actually just an ordinary person!" Ji Jie said humbly, and then asked with great concern: "Grandma, what disease do you have? I carry several kinds of pills with me. It has miraculous effects on illnesses and poisonings. If it doesn't work, I will go to other places to sell medicine!"
Grandma shook her head and said: "I am not sick or poisoned, but caused by the enemy's golden poison. It cannot be cured!"
The most powerful of the Miao voodoos are the golden voodoo and the silver voodoo. Both of these voodoos are named after the color of the voodoo bug itself. Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, the Miao people will capture hundreds of poisonous bugs and put them together and let them fight each other. , the last remaining one gathered the venom of various poisonous insects, and then fed it with human blood, becoming the lowest level of Gu insect.
Put twelve Gu worms together and feed them together, and the remaining one will become a Jing Gu; twelve Jing Gu can raise a Silver Gu, and twelve Silver Gu can raise a Gold Gu. The higher the level, the more severe the toxicity.
Because it is extremely difficult to produce golden and silver voodoos, the Miao people who can possess such voodoos are the best in their clan, especially golden voodoos, which can live for hundreds of years and be passed down to generations of masters.
Although my grandma was born in the Central Plains, she quickly learned the art of raising voodoos after marrying in Miaoland. She raised a spirit voodoo in only one-third of the time of others. Her husband was the bodyguard of the Lord of Xidongdong, and the couple The two work together to protect the safety of the cave owner.
Later, the lord of Xidong Cave was brutally killed by the lord of Beidong Cave. In that brutal war, almost all the Xidong people were killed, including Grandma’s husband. Grandma desperately rescued the Cave Master’s little daughter and vowed to raise her up. To avenge the family members.
The little daughter she rescued, now Mei Duo, was only eight years old that year.
The Dong people in Xidong didn't know where they learned that there was still a fish that had slipped through the net, so they sent people to hunt down Grandma and Mei Duo, so they had to hide everywhere.
While raising Mei Duo, grandma worked hard to practice Gu. She finally turned her essence Gu into silver Gu three months ago. She couldn't wait to seek revenge from the master of Beidong Cave. Who would have thought that her enemy would inherit a secret passed down from her family? Only the gold Gu, grandma's silver Gu died on the spot, and she also suffered severe backlash!
Poison backlash uses low-level voodoos to poison people with high-level voodoos. The opponent cannot be harmed at all, but itself is seriously damaged. If the other party's voodoos are silver voodoos or lower than silver voodoos, as long as they can kill If its master dies, the backlash will follow.
But once the Golden Gu backfires, it is equivalent to being sentenced to death, because even if the owner of the Golden Gu is killed, the Golden Gu can still survive. As long as the Golden Gu does not die, the backlash will never stop.
Moreover, after being bitten by the golden poison, those who are unlucky will die on the spot, while those who are lucky will live for a few months at most.
Before the backlash, grandma was in good health and full of energy. In just three months, she was tortured into what she is now. Those who didn't know would have thought she was a 70-year-old!
"So, taking medicine won't help at all?" Ji Jie asked.
It’s not that they have no effect at all. Although ginseng, Ganoderma and other great tonics have no effect on the backlash poison, they can extend the life of the poisoned person. Mei Duo spent all the money selling these valuables She wanted to buy medicinal materials, but the money was quickly spent. She couldn't bear to see her grandma being tortured again, so she came up with the idea of stealing and quickly put it into action.
"I have plenty of ginseng!" Ji Jie turned around and waved his right hand on the table, and dozens of fine ginseng plants in exquisite wooden boxes appeared on it.
"Ah, how did you do it?" Mei Duo looked at him in surprise.
"Haha, I said this was carried with me, do you believe it?" Ji Jie blinked and asked.
The little girl immediately shook her head, feeling very embarrassed.
"Don't ask why, hurry up and get a bottle of boiled water for Grandma to drink!" Ji Jie couldn't help but pick up a box and put it into Mei Duo's hand, saying, "Grandma's body is very weak!"
"Yes!" Mei Duo nodded and went to light a fire on the stove.
Grandma has always been taking care of Mei Duo. She has learned to cook and other household chores in the past two months. Looking at her skillful movements, Ji Jie nodded in approval.
"By the way, grandma, is it true that golden Gu can't be killed?" Ji Jie moved a chair and sat beside the bed.
"It's possible, but it's very difficult!" Grandma thought for a while and said, "Although Golden Gu is powerful, it also has natural enemies!"
"Really? What are its natural enemies?"
"It's the snow toad!" Mei Duo, who was lighting the fire, answered for her grandma and said, "It's a pity that the snow toad is a mythical creature of the far north. It is said that it only appears once in thousands of years. I once thought about taking grandma to the desert to find it. , but grandma’s body is getting worse day by day, and she cannot bear the fatigue of the long journey..."
Grandma consoled herself: "This place is thousands of miles away from the desert. Even if we go there, we may not be able to find it!"
"Snow toad!" When Ji Jie heard this name, he felt it was very familiar, but he just couldn't remember it.
Mei Duo repeated: "Yes, it's the Snow Toad!"
"Wait a minute..." Ji Jie patted his head and said, "Snow Toad, what do you think of me as such a powerful treasure? Isn't it just that little frog who always loves to look at beautiful women... No, it's a little white frog!"
"You've seen it!" Mei Duo was overjoyed, ran over and grabbed Ji Jie's hand tightly, looking at him eagerly, waiting for the answer.
"Seen it!"
"Where?"
"My home!"
"Ah? Your home?"
"Yes, not only have I seen it before, I often throw it into the pool, but it's a pity that the guy can't drown!"
"ah?"
"Also, when I went out this time, Qian'er asked me to take it with me, saying that there are many small bugs in southern Xinjiang that it likes to eat, which is good for its continued evolution!" Ji Jie said while recalling the scene at that time: "The little guy was quite annoying, so I just threw him into the ring!"
