Ball Ball Cultivation
Chapter 470 Light and Dark20
Song Ruizhi was only fourteen years old. Who would plant such a life-threatening poisonous insect in his body that could ruin his future?
After a little calculation, Qiuqiu guessed that it was the person mentioned above! After all, Song Ruizhi has the royal blood of the previous dynasty!
There is a lot of miasma in the dense forests of the south, which is determined by the weather and terrain.
In the shade, surrounded by mountains, the air circulation is very poor and the miasma in the valley is very strong. But on the mountain, the fertile soil breeds many shade-loving detoxifying herbs.
Qiuqiu leads people to pick herbs, and he will also pick rare ones with high medicinal value if he sees any.
The group cooperated with each other, and with the help of authentic herbalists, the ball quickly flew to the top of the mountain.
Qiuqiu climbed up to a high place and looked into the distance: "I will set a foothold every ten feet. You'd better not set foot where I don't.
I don’t recognize many of the poisons here, but Doctor Wang is more familiar with them, but he is old and doesn’t have the ability to come up.
Shopkeeper Rong, if you see any precious herbs, have them picked by professional masters. Don't touch them casually. There are many poisonous herbs here that are deadly."
If they were poisoned and left untreated, these experts could die at any moment. Yuege couldn't afford the loss.
Everyone was also very careful about their lives and moved forward cautiously. After finally reaching the top of the mountain and crossing the Three Tribulations Mountain, they were greeted by a completely different scene.
Shopkeeper Rong panted, "Uncle Zhang, where is this? Why is there endless farmland? Is that a village?"
Qiuqiu pointed at a former scout guard and said, "Go and secretly find out where this is. Try not to alert the people inside."
The inquiring person quickly returned: "This is the Miao village. The mountains surrounding the village are called the Wan Gu Mountains. This is probably the most secretive Gu village branch in the legendary Miao region."
The most powerful person in Gu magic is the Holy Maiden who possesses the Holy Gu. The clan leader who possesses the Gu King and the Holy Maiden jointly manage the internal affairs of the Gu village.
This Miao village that suddenly appeared before him could help Song Ruizhi get rid of the poison, so he had to cherish this sudden opportunity.
According to the etiquette of the aristocratic family, Qiuqiu delivered a visiting card at the entrance of the village, revealing his identity as a master of the mysterious arts. He waited for the village owner to respond before bringing Rui to his door.
The clan leader and the saint lady personally welcomed the master of the mysterious arts. After the two sides exchanged greetings, Qiuqiu stated his purpose. The other party agreed and would help Song Ruizhi detoxify in exchange for only three rare poisons.
However, after the saint checked the poisonous insects in Song Ruizhi's body, she suddenly changed her mind after agreeing to it.
Ignoring the patriarch's obstruction, the saint asked the guards around her to go to the altar and bring out a little girl of about eleven or twelve years old.
The Saint was a bit paranoid and pointed at Zhang Ruizhi: "Only if you agree to marry Hanhan can your son's poison be cured!"
Qiuqiu naturally refused. In his opinion, this was just the simplest poisonous insect. He could ask other poison masters to help remove it. If that didn't work, she could raise a poison king herself and remove the poison for her adopted son personally.
I don't want to let my son's life be trapped by marriage.
The Saint Lady saw that Qiuqiu was full of repulsion, but her voice softened: "To be honest with Master Zhang, the Gu that your son is infected with cannot be suppressed even by the clan leader's Gu King. Only the Holy Gu in my body can.
It can make a person's temper violent. The parasite is located in the brain. If there is any accident during the detoxification process, death will occur. Even our Wan Gu Mountain Holy Gu cannot guarantee that there will be no loss. Only the Holy Gu can detoxify it."
Even so, Qiuqiu didn't want to ruin her son's marriage for life, so she refused to agree.
There are also Gu Gu's feces and shed shells in her space, which can be made into earrings to suppress the violent Gu in Ruizhi's body for a long time.
The clan leader was more tactful and advised, "Mr. Zhang, why don't you ask your son? If he agrees, there's no need to stop him."
Qiuqiu didn't want her son to face this kind of choice, so her eyes became stern: "Even if you agree, after I take this girl out and remove the poison, I will abandon her or cruelly kill her. What can you do?" Forced marriage is not acceptable!
The Saint's eyes became fierce: "You dare! If anything happens to Hanhan, I will step out of the village and wipe out your entire Zhang family!"
Qiuqiu also released a bit of his own pressure, suppressing the patriarch next to him so much that blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. The saint was shocked and retracted her pressure.
The patriarch stretched out his trembling fingers and said, "You..." He didn't say a word for a long time.
The saint was about to summon poisonous creatures around to attack Qiuqiu and his son, and the patriarch quickly reached out to stop her.
He took a step back and said, "They can get engaged first. After five years, if one of them doesn't want to, the engagement can be cancelled."
Qiuqiu put on a gentle expression again: "I don't know if there is any hidden secret. Miao Village is where she was born and raised. Staying here is the best choice. Why did she leave her hometown and put her future life and death in the hands of me, an outsider who only met her once?"
The clan leader dismissed the attendants around him, showing his sincerity, and explained in detail: "Hanhan's talent in Gu magic is higher than that of all the saints in history. The higher the talent, the higher the degree of integration with the holy Gu, and the shorter the lifespan. She cannot marry for the rest of her life.
Out of selfish motives, we both don't want Hanhan to be the next Saint.
This year is the day for selecting the next Saint, and all unmarried Miao women must participate.
Hanhan is only twelve years old, so she absolutely cannot marry or consummate her marriage. She can only marry out, and will no longer be eligible to run for the Sainthood title. This is also to find a way out for her."
Qiuqiu is a very smart person and has experienced a lot. Being a saint is not only a bondage but also an honor.
This Hanhan must have other problems, otherwise she wouldn't be a future that these two people are worried about at the same time.
Qiuqiu fell into deep thought and replied, "I can help you with this, but you have to tell her the real problem.
I can't bring myself into trouble that I can't handle.
The problem you just mentioned is definitely not the most important issue. After all, the Saint is the greatest being in the hearts of most of the tribe members."
The Saint glanced at the clan leader and saw the retreat in his eyes. As a mother, she made a desperate move and said, "Hanhan is my daughter. She has the highest talent in Gu Shu and is likely to be selected as the next Saint.
After the saint is chosen, the elders will conduct a thorough investigation into the identity of the new saint. I have violated the saint's mission and the clan rules, and gave birth to a daughter during my time as a saint. At that time, both mother and daughter will be severely punished. I wonder if I will have a good end.
Hanhan is just a personal maid by my side now. Not many people care whether she stays or leaves. Don't worry, don't worry about causing trouble to you."
Qiuqiu could see that this patriarch was most likely Hanhan's father, but this father was irresponsible and not as decisive as the saint.
After much deliberation and discussion with Zhang Ruizhi, Qiuqiu agreed to take Hanhan away and protect her for five years. If Hanhan and Ruizhi did not develop feelings for each other after five years, neither side would force them to get married.
