What shocked him the most was not how the other party had this box, but why the other party drove everyone away and then took out the box in front of him.
Seeing Xiao Bai's expression, Mengba smiled.
Sure enough, you kid knows what this is.
Hey, old man, I am getting old. In fact, money is not that important to me, so I am willing to sell you the gem at a very low price.
"What I want to exchange with you is the secret about this box."
Hearing this, Xiao Bai smiled bitterly.
"I don't know much about the secret of the box, but from what you just said, I believe you also think that it contains life-extending medicine, but you can't open it, right?"
"Actually, I don't know any more than you do. I only heard about the text recorded on this box not long ago, which means that the box may contain elixir."
"But after I knew about it, the villagers who told me about it used me as a sacrifice for sacrifices."
"I'm not sure whether what's in this box is really the elixir, or whether it's just what the village chief said casually."
Hearing Xiao Bai's words, Mengba nodded.
"Well, it's pretty much what I know. In fact, I'm not sure whether what's in this box is the elixir. I got it by chance when I was young. It's been thirty or forty years ago. .”
"Hey, I'm old now, and my body is terminally ill. It's been less than three months."
"so……"
Having said this, Mengba stood up from his seat and slowly walked to Xiao Bai step by step.
"I also know of another thing that can extend your life by a year."
"That's it, your blood!"
Hearing this, Xiao Bai couldn't help but froze.
Your own blood? Extend life? I am not Tang Sanzang, how could blood have this effect?
Seeing the incomprehensible expression on Xiao Bai's face, Mengba smiled and pointed at Xiao Bai's chest.
To be precise, it's not your blood, it's them.
Hearing this, Xiao Bai couldn't help but look down at the totem on his chest.
What you heard from other people is that if you are infected with this bug, you can only live for a year, right?
Hearing this, Xiao Bai nodded and shook his head.
"It must have been more than a year. After I was infected, I have been taking deworming medicine, and some bugs are excreted every day. The number of them in my body probably creates a delicate balance."
Hearing Xiao Bai's words, Meng Ba was stunned this time.
A long while.
Mengba looked up to the sky and smiled happily.
"Heaven will not destroy me! God will not destroy me!"
"Boy, have you ever thought that these Gu bugs actually have another function, that is, if you infect them, they can extend the life of the host by one year, regardless of the host's original body?"
What?
Hearing this, Xiao Bai's eyes widened.
"Are you surprised? You must have heard that people who were infected did not survive a year, right?"
"But as far as I know, the meaning of these Gu is to temporarily activate the host's body data, cure the host's disease, and give the host a year to find the next seal to extend his life for another year, or to completely Solve the mystery left behind by "him."
"What I didn't expect was that you actually thought of using insecticides to control the poison. In this case, you should be able to extend this year again."
"I have to say, you are truly a genius and my lucky star."
"I am a businessman. I am willing to lower the price of this ruby again and sell it to you for five million US dollars. Boy, don't think it is expensive. This piece of ruby has been sold at similar auctions in the past. The price of hundreds of millions of Chinese coins."
"In exchange, I need a tube of your blood, not a lot, just 5 ml."
Do you want your own blood?
Hearing this, Xiao Bai was silent for a moment.
5 ml of blood can be exchanged for tens of millions of profits. I believe even the richest man will be very excited about this deal.
After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Bai let out a long sigh.
"I also have a request."
"Huh? Young man, tell me."
Looking at Meng Ba's eager eyes, Xiao Bai pondered for a moment, and then said: "If there is any other information about this bronze box and this Gu, I need you to inform me."
"And you made a profit from this business. The Gu in my body didn't come from one seal, but three in total."
"I don't know if it can extend your life by three years, but I think it is indeed more complicated than a seal."
Hearing Xiao Bai's words, Mengba's eyes instantly brightened.
"Three bronze seals?"
"Hahahahahaha!"
"Okay, okay, kid, I promise you, I can even temporarily hand over this bronze box to you through some channels to explore the secrets inside."
"But I also have a request, and I want to get a copy of what I need once the secret is revealed."
"In line with this, I will share with you all the relevant information I have collected over the years and the information I can obtain in the future."
After hearing Mengba's conditions, Xiao Bai hesitated for a moment, and then nodded seriously.
Soon, a private doctor came in, took out an unopened blood collection needle, inserted it into Xiao Bai's blood vessel, and drew 5 ml of blood.
Soon, the blood was injected into Mengba's body without any treatment.
Seeing a very light black mass appear on Mengba's wrist where blood had been injected, and then the black mass followed the blood to Mengba's heart, Xiao Bai let out a long sigh again.
"Mr. Meng, are you sure this thing can suppress the virus in your body? Why do I think this method has no credibility? And it's hard to tell if our blood types are different."
Ignoring Xiao Bai's words, Mengba carefully felt his body's reaction.
As Xiao Bai's blood was injected into his body, he felt the blood in his veins tingling and tingling.
Just a few minutes later, Mengba felt that his almost exhausted body was magically glowing with vitality, and a Qingyang Qi spread throughout his body. Soon, he felt as if his body was being repaired.
"Xiao Xiao, you don't understand. Since you can activate the bronze cauldron, the blood in your body can be called universal blood."
"To be honest, I haven't experienced such a good feeling in my body in a long time."
With that said, he gently pushed Ruby in front of Xiao Bai.
"Come on, our deal is done. It would be troublesome for you to take this bronze box away directly. I will arrange for someone to deliver it to your home in a few days."
"Xiao Xiao, you have to live well and dig out this secret as soon as possible."
"Humans, the older they get, the less they want to die. If you can extend my life by 10 years, what I am willing to pay may be beyond your imagination."
