The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine Chapter 555: 555: Entering the Ancestral Land of the Ying Fa
Chapter 555: Chapter 555: Entering the Ancestral Land of the Ying Family!
“What… what exactly is going on?” Ying Xiao was shivering all over.
The more he thought about it, the more terrified he beca.
As for the pot of fish soup, without Huang Xiaolong dissuading them, his family mbers would have certainly ingested it. Even if they hadn’t all died from the poison, the death of a few would have been a trendous blow to Ying Xiao.
At the sa ti, a profound feeling of coldness welled up within him — Ying Aoshan had been repeatedly poisoned. Ying Aotian was injured, his martial arts skills destroyed.
Now, they nearly consud poisoned soup…
All these things were targeted at Ying Xiao’s line, witchcraft tricks that were difficult to guard against!
“Was it my Elder Brother Ying Chong? Has he resorted to any ans necessary to usurp power?” Veins bulged on Ying Xiao’s forehead.
Just at this mont!
Splosh! Splosh! Splosh!
Water splashed everywhere.
The descendants of the Ying Family who had dived into the water erged holding a large container.
“Father, there’s… there’s sothing in the creek…” one of the Ying mbers said with a horrified look on his face.
The object was similar to a big vat, cast in iron, but the surface of the “Water Vat” had many perforations.
Moreover, the surface of the “Water Vat” was engraved with dense lines and weird symbols.
When they lifted the “Water Vat”, they found, shockingly!
In the vat lay several skeletons! Human skeletons!
However, the bodies had been reduced to bare bones, with no signs of flesh or organs.
“Young man, what is this?” Ying Xiao and others, being ancient martial arts grandmasters, weren’t scared by the sight of a few skeletons.
“This is a kind of witchcraft called ‘Dire Art’. However, this art has almost been lost. Dire Art is different from witchcraft. It uses the spirits of the dead as a dium, and the number of aggrieved souls determines the strength of the Dire Art. The process and thods of using the dead bodies to make Dire Art are very complex,” Huang Xiaolong explained slowly. “This iron container is actually a magic artifact used for performing ‘Dire Art’, and the inscriptions on it are the most poisonous spells. These spells seal the souls of the dead in their bodies and they cannot break free. The bodies then attract fish to eat their flesh and organs. Fish that eat these bodies grow extrely large in a short period of ti, and the soup made from such fish is the most delicious food in the world. However, these fish are no longer fish, but are possessed by the spirits of the dead… People who eat these ‘possessed’ fish will be killed by the spirits. Because it’s not a poison, even if you’re grandmasters in ancient martial arts, you would still die.”
Upon hearing Huang Xiaolong’s words, Ying Xiao and his people felt a chill that ran to the core of their being.
Truly, Huang Xiaolong had saved the lives of Ying Xiao’s family mbers today.
If not for Huang Xiaolong, they would likely all be wiped out by now.
The loss of kin gives enemies pleasure!
“I am a good cook, capable of recognizing the sll of fish soup, and the aroma of this soup was too delicious, equivalent to the top fragrance in the world. The aroma is unique to the soup made from fish that have consud the spirits of the dead. Other than this, no other fish soup in the world can replicate this savory taste,” Huang Xiaolong explained logically. “The ‘Dire Art’ is a lost ancient technique, I didn’t expect soone in the world would still know it… Fortunately, I also understand ‘Dire Art’, otherwise you would all be dead by now.”
“Dad, see, isn’t Little Long really capable? He’s our family’s savior!” Ying Aoshan was quite excited, while also full of pride. She looked at Huang Xiaolong with affectionate eyes. “Little Long, I really want to thank you this ti.”
“Hehe, sweetheart, no need to be polite.” after finishing, Huang Xiaolong gave a playful look towards Ying Xiao.
At this mont, Ying Xiao was naturally imnsely grateful to Huang Xiaolong. Being a man of honor, he was willing to admit his defeat. “Alright! In all fairness, I, Ying Xiao, accept you as my son-in-law! Starting today, you are my son-in-law and also part of the Ying family. You have the right to participate in the Ying family’s gatherings!”
“Little Long, right? You can start calling ‘mother-in-law’.” Ying Aoshan’s mother cast her gaze at her own daughter whose heart is deeply fallen for the young man before them. Besides, this son-in-law doesn’t seem to be without his rits.
“It appears that soone ca here in advance, knowing that we would stay here for the night before returning to the ancestral house and that we would fish and cook from the stream. Therefore, they set up this wicked thod in the stream in advance…” Deep murderous intent ford in Ying Xiao’s eyes. “They really took pains to plan this…poison from bugs, witchcraft… If it wasn’t for your knowledge, son-in-law, we would be helpless against these despicable tactics.” Ying Xiao once again looked at Huang Xiaolong with thankful gaze.
Now, Ying Xiao’s recognition toward Huang Xiaolong was not just about honoring a lost bet but a genuine appreciation stemming from within.
“Dad, I’ve been poisoned twice in a row, and each ti Little Long found the antidote for .” Ying Aoshan grinned, “Little Long even gave a prival bug. This is the mighty ‘bug poison’, cultivated by ancient demon insects. Dad, if I secretly poison you using it, you might just be in great danger.”
Ying Aoshan’s mother laughed and scolded, “Silly girl, such impudence.”
With a playful stick of her tongue, Ying Aoshan summoned the nearly translucent bug poison from inside her body, allowing it to fly circling in the air.
“This is ‘bug poison’?” Ying Xiao looked slightly astounded.
The other mbers of the Ying Family were also expressing amazent.
“Dad, this is the mightiest ‘bug poison’ in the world. It has the power to cast illusions and can catch one off guard.” Ying Aoshan chuckled, and then returned the bug poison back to her body.
Of course, being a grandmaster in ancient martial arts, Ying Xiao didn’t quite believe this tiny bug poison could possess such power.
“Oh, son-in-law, it turns out you have saved Aoshan’s life multiple tis. No wonder she’s so deeply in love with you. Without you, Aoshan might not have survived. From today onwards, I will see you as a son.” Ying Xiao laughed towards Huang Xiaolong.
He paused for a mont, his breath slightly trembling. “Son-in-law, Aoshan told you’re capable of healing Aotian’s injury, is that true?”
“I’m definitely capable of healing it. However, let’s discuss it further once we’ve entered the Ying family’s ancestral land.” Huang Xiaolong responded flippantly.
“Excellent! If Aotian can recover his old powers, my elder brother, Ying Chong, this ti, it is our chance to challenge you and Ying Qingfeng!” Ying Xiao grit his teeth.
“We won’t stay overnight here. After dinner, we imdiately head to the ancestral land!” Ying Xiao commanded. “I can’t wait to confront Ying Chong face to face!”
Then, a clan mber brought wild animals for them to cook and eat by the stream.
Huang Xiaolong also t the most outstanding genius of this lineage, Ying Aotian.
This man had sharp eyebrows and captivating eyes, exuding an extraordinary aura. However, at the mont his face was shrouded in darkness, as if he was poisoned. His eyes were scattered, and he was in absolute despair.
Everyone hastily finished their als.
The clan mbers found so wild fruit nearby.
Ying Xiao commanded everyone to eat the fruit.
This wild fruit happened to be a natural antidote against the poisonous marsh of the valley. After eating, they could move freely without being affected by the poisonous gas for an hour.
After everyone swallowed the fruit, they waited for its effects to spread throughout their bodies.
With a wave of Ying Xiao’s hand, everyone followed into the poisonous marsh!
“Little Long, let’s go to the ancestral land.” Holding Huang Xiaolong’s hand, Ying Aoshan, together with Huang, entered the dense poisonous marsh!
Heading to the ancestral land of the Ying family!
