Just by listening to the description, you can understand the seriousness of the matter.
I still think of what I saw with my own eyes last night. Once those densely packed black bugs spread, how could we get rid of them?
Once something slips through the net, it may spread.
This situation is similar to various viruses in movies. In the worst case, it is not an exaggeration to think about destroying all mankind.
Of course, what Bai Song was thinking was too alarmist. If those bugs were really so scary, the world would have been destroyed long ago.
"Those bugs must have a weakness, right? If they really spread like this uncontrollably, there would definitely be no one left in Miao territory."
The great witch wanted to nod, then thought of something, stopped and said directly: "Although the marrow-eating Gu reproduces very quickly, only one in 10,000 female insects can reproduce again. Even if it is only one in 10,000, it is recorded in ancient Miao books.
, tens of thousands of people died in Miao territory due to marrow-eating poison."
"Then where did this thing come from? How did it get infected to others?"
This question made the great witch hesitate a little, and he turned his head to look at the clan leader.
The clan leader said solemnly: "The marrow-eating Gu was released by our village."
After hearing this, Bai Song was shocked.
"Hey!" the clan leader sighed, "we didn't realize the seriousness of the problem until something happened. Half a month ago, foreigners broke into Miao territory. In order to get the news about Snake Island from us, they killed us.
They forced us to reveal the information. In order to drive away the invaders, the previous great witch used poison, and we used poison to resist the invaders' attack. But..."
The patriarch's voice broke off and he signaled for the great witch to continue.
The great witch said: "That was the previous great witch and my master. She was obsessed with the art of voodoo. She actually broke the taboos in the Miao territory and secretly cultivated the marrow-eating voodoo. We repelled the invaders and spread the marrow-eating voodoo throughout the country.
The outside world. Master knew that he had violated a taboo, so he fled the house half a month ago and disappeared without a trace. I... I just took over as the Great Witch less than three days ago."
As she said this, the little girl revealed her shyness.
Now I understand everything. No wonder I thought this great witch was a little weird. It turned out that he was just brought in temporarily to make up for the numbers.
The patriarch continued: "Spreading marrow-eating Gu is a serious crime in Miao territory! It will cause panic in the entire Miao territory. In order to conceal the news, we secretly sent people to bring all the strangers around back to the stronghold. Because although marrow-eating Gu is very ferocious,
But it must be a parasite on a human or animal body to survive. If it cannot find a host, it will die naturally after half a month. We locked the three of you up alone to observe whether there is marrow-eating Gu in your bodies."
After hearing this, the questions lingering in Bai Song's heart finally got the answer.
Ever since I was forced to return to Miao Village, all my experiences have become much more reasonable.
Bai Song was silent for a long time, thinking of something: "You said that the marrow-eating Gu attaches to human bones and sucks bone marrow. Why did the person who died last night have the head..."
"Because the worms are attached to his skull, and the bone marrow of the skull is not enough to satisfy those worms, who would be in such a terrifying situation."
"So, if there is enough bone marrow, the marrow-eating Gu will settle down in the human body. If there is not enough bone marrow, it will find a way to break out of the body?"
"That's probably it." The great witch wasn't very sure either.
"I have a solution." Bai Song's eyes lit up.
"Is there a way?" The patriarch was a little excited.
"I'm not sure. Let's get the animal's bone marrow first."
The clan leader immediately followed Bai Song's instructions.
A few minutes later, a basin of fresh pig bone marrow was placed in front of Bai Song.
Bai Songrang brought someone from the Mo family over.
Bai Song's method is very simple. Before the marrow-eating poison has fully hatched, he first applies a layer of animal bone marrow to the patient's body.
Some bone marrow larvae will definitely be attracted to the bone marrow and want to run out of the skin.
The patient will feel pain.
Wherever it hurts, it proves that there are bugs there.
After determining the location of the poison, Bai Song could directly use the knife to scrape the patient's bones to cure the poison.
Moreover, this method can also detect whether the patient has recovered and whether people in the village have been accidentally infected.
With the surgical plan in hand, Bai Song didn't wait any longer and set up an operating table in the patriarch's room.
After the first operation, the unconscious patient was sent away to rest.
Bai Song was also exhausted and sweating profusely. After all, the conditions were too simple.
But it also gave Bai Song a lot of confidence, because this method is really effective.
Day one.
People in the Miao village were still skeptical.
The next day, the first patient woke up.
After smearing the body with animal bone marrow for testing, the great shaman himself confirmed it.
The first person in history to be infected by the marrow-eating poison survived.
As soon as the news came out, the Miao village was excited.
Bai Song became the savior of the Miao village and the most important friend of the entire village.
The small bamboo house was changed to the largest house in the village, next to the clan leader.
There are no restrictions inside the village. You can move around freely, and Miao people from all families rush over to give you gifts as a sign of goodwill.
Qing'er and A-ling couldn't even accept the gifts.
And Bai Song began to devote himself to treatment.
There are four more people in the Mo family.
Lest someone else die suddenly before the operation, Bai Song did not dare to stop for a quarter of an hour.
After operating on all four people, I was so tired that I fell asleep.
…
Bai Song slept for a full day and night.
After waking up, the village held a grand welcome ceremony.
Countless Miao girls enthusiastically surrounded Bai Song to sing and dance.
In the lively atmosphere, countless young girls secretly sent kisses.
Even Qing'er can't stop the enthusiasm of these Miao girls.
The Miao men presented them with fine wines and delicacies, which made Bai Song feel dizzy and the sky was dark.
How defensive the Miao people were towards outsiders before, they are now very enthusiastic towards their guests.
In front of the bonfire, Bai Song was thrown into the sky by the girls.
The night sky is filled with the sound of laughter.
A Ling looked at this scene and said with a smile: "With the young master's popularity, all the girls are afraid of rushing to marry him. Are you worried about this?"
Qing'er lost her jealousy and looked on with a smile: "Young Master is always so dazzling wherever he goes. He is always the most dazzling person in the crowd."
"Tonight, I would like to remind you, Master, not to forget our business. We have been delayed for a long time. It is rare to win the trust of the Miao people. It is time to inquire about Snake Island."
At the same time, Bai Song thought of the same problem.
After the carnival, Bai Song stood at the door of the patriarch's house.
"Mr. Bai, if you have anything to do, come in and talk to me."
The clan leader no longer had the same tone as before, and came out in person to greet him with a smile.
Bai Song not only saved people, but also preserved the reputation of the village and taught the method of treating marrow-eating poison.
This is something I never dared to think about before.
Bai Song arrived at the house and said seriously: "Chief, to be honest, we have another purpose in coming to Miao territory this time."
"If you have anything, Mr. Bai, just say it."
"I want to ask the clan leader for news about Snake Island."
