Demon Lord 3

Wang Qi wasn't very familiar with Gu poison, so I'll share some basic information. In Miao areas, there are countless legends about Gu poison. For example, one story tells of a Miao woman who, after being wrongly accused, turned into a Gu poison, seeking revenge on those who wronged her. Another story tells of a Miao man who accidentally offended a Gu poison and ended up suffering excruciating pain. While these stories are somewhat exaggerated, they nonetheless reflect the Miao people's reverence and fear of Gu poison.

The production of Gu poison is a highly skilled craft. Legend has it that it involves a variety of venomous insects, such as spiders, centipedes, and scorpions. These insects are placed in a sealed container and left to inflict the ravages of each other. The last remaining "king" is the Gu poison.

Actually, this is not a scary thing. Poisonous insects will become like this here, but many people say it is a fantasy thing. I think it is a bit exaggerated. It is actually very common biological knowledge with a little mythological color. These people are also relatively hospitable, and there are not as many incidents of harming people for no reason as imagined.

The Great Miao King met with us again. This time, he was in a very bad state, even unable to speak. Sometimes he used gestures to us or directly conveyed his thoughts. His condition was much worse than last time, and no one said much. Knowing that his end was just a few days away, Shen Hexi didn't seem as sad as before. Perhaps she had accepted the reality, or perhaps she had long been numb to these things. This time, the Great Miao King asked us to take good care of Shen Hexi and would definitely let her take over the Miao village. The Great Miao King had seen this Miao village for thousands of years and knew that without Shen Hexi, there would be no future. We agreed again. The Miao King also told Shen Hexi to love whoever she liked in the future! He said he would no longer care about her. This time, Shen Hexi finally couldn't hold back and burst into tears. Tears fell like raindrops, but she tried to hold her voice again, fearing to attract more onlookers. Not many people knew about this incident, and they were afraid of causing a sensation in the Miao village, so the fewer people who knew, the better.

Thinking of this, I was also curious about a question. The Miao King was about to pass away, but the high priest still hadn't come. There was even no news of him, and he hadn't shown up. Wu Luansen had previously told me that the high priest might be too busy, but now it was this late, and not coming would be a bit unreasonable. We didn't disturb the Miao King's rest and slowly left the room. Then, we asked Shen Hexi about this puzzling matter.

She said, "You misunderstood. It's not that the high priest won't come. He's simply too busy. He's preoccupied with the Miao King's affairs, especially his future plans. He's also worked through everything, but it's taking a while, so he might not be able to make it. I have no choice but to ask you to come and help deal with this. It's a bit confusing, but I'll have the high priest meet you tomorrow. He's almost done with his work."

After we returned, we discovered a problem, that is, life here is too backward. Almost no one owns a mobile phone, and some people have never heard of television. It seems like they are living in seclusion. So we can also spend some time talking about this matter. Early in the morning we went to find the deputy of King Miao who was in charge of this matter. He also agreed with our opinion, but didn't know how to implement it. We also patiently explained it to him.

The first plan is to let everyone understand the functions of television, mobile phones, and computers. Secondly, we will tell everyone the benefits of these things. However, we will also talk about the disadvantages. After all, if we only talk about the advantages and ignore the disadvantages, it would be deceptive. This has won unanimous praise from many people.
