Looking at the granddaughter who was flipping through the books and beginning to memorize the method of poisonous power.
The expression on Dugu Bo's slightly sunken and stiff cheeks suddenly became a little uncertain, and he started to struggle a little.
He seemed to be thinking about something, and his head kept swaying in his mind for something.
After a long silence, Dugu Bo sighed and said to himself:
"Well, Yanyan has grown up. Maybe it's time to tell her some things."
He made a decision anyway.
.....
not long time.
Dugu Yan quickly memorized all the methods of operating the Poison Technique in his mind.
Then, under the protection and guidance of Dugu Bo, he completed the first operation of the Poison Technique, and a pill bead the size of a rice grain was condensed in the Dantian of his lower abdomen.
"Grandpa, I succeeded."
Dugu Yan opened his eyes and shouted in surprise at Dugu Bo.
"how do you feel?"
Dugu Bo asked with a smile.
"I feel great!"
Dugu Yan immediately replied happily, "I practice according to the operation route of Poison Technique. I feel very comfortable and my whole body is warm."
"And the soul power seems to be running extremely smoothly in the body, without any stagnation at all, and the speed is even several times faster than usual practice."
"When I practiced before, I always felt that the movement of soul power was a bit sluggish. When the toxins were released, I would even feel an inexplicable tingling sensation."
"But now, all these feelings are gone."
"now it's right!"
Dugu Bo finally felt relieved and immediately laughed and said:
"Haha, this is the power of Poison Technique."
When Dugu Yan heard this, his eyes were clear and he also praised:
"Grandpa, this poisonous skill is so powerful."
"I just ran it through my body, and I vaguely feel that my soul power has increased a lot. It's just a pity that I haven't hunted the third soul ring to break through the bottleneck. Otherwise, we can know how much the soul power has increased. Approximately how many there are.”
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, the increased soul power will be reflected after you absorb the third soul ring and break through to the supreme soul realm."
Dugu Bo waved his hand and said happily.
"By the way, grandpa, it seems that a pill has been condensed in my stomach, but it's only the size of a grain of rice."
At this time, Dugu Yan said softly again.
"That pill, called the Poison Pill, is the core of the Poison Technique. It is made from the jade phosphorous snake venom in your body, which has been refined, purified, and condensed through the Poison Technique."
"The location of the poisonous elixir is not in the stomach, but in a place called Dantian, which is where the elixir appears and where the spiritual intention is maintained."
Dugubo explained patiently, and then said:
"With this poison technique, you don't have to worry about poison backlash in the future."
"Huh? Toxin backlash? What is that?"
Dugu Yan immediately tilted his head and looked at him in confusion.
"Yes, the poison bites back."
Dugu Bo nodded, first let out a long sigh, and then said in a faint tone:
"Yanyan, originally grandpa didn't plan to tell you these things, but now that you have grown up, it's time to understand some of the secrets of our Dugu clan."…
Looking at his granddaughter who looked stunned and surprised, Dugu Bo asked in a dull tone:
"Yanyan, do you still remember your father and mother?"
"Father, mother..."
After hearing this, Dugu Yan immediately recovered from his shock and surprise, and his mood became slightly depressed.
She had little memory of her father and mother.
Because her father and mother passed away when she was very young.
Now, there are only a few vague memories left in her mind, and most of them are about her grandfather.
Ever since she could remember, her grandfather had always been the only one she depended on.
For so many years, grandpa never mentioned his parents to her.
Moreover, every time she asked for news about her parents, her grandfather would always talk about him, or change the subject in an understatement, and sometimes even disappear altogether.
In short, he just refused to talk to her about her parents.
This made her extremely depressed.
Now grandpa actually mentioned it on his own initiative. Of course she couldn't miss this opportunity to get to know her parents.
Ever since.
Dugu Yan immediately put aside the excitement brought about by just practicing the Poison Technique and looked at his grandfather eagerly, hoping to learn more about his father and mother from him.
She asked nervously:
"Father, mother, they..."
"Alas~~"
Dugu Bo let out a long sigh again, and then said:
"Yanyan, your father and mother actually did not die from an accident, but from the poisonous backlash of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Spirit."
"Regarding the backlash of the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake, we have to start with the secrets of the Dugu clan, because it involves the defect of the inherited martial spirit Jade Phosphorus Snake..."
Subsequently.
Under the shock and concern on granddaughter Duguyan's face.
Dugu Bo connected the secrets of the Dugu clan of the Jade Phosphorus Snake, including the history of the family's development, the fatal flaw of the Jade Phosphorus Snake's inherited martial spirit, the specific circumstances and characteristics of the Jade Phosphorus Snake's venom backlash, and the causes of death of his son and daughter-in-law, all in detail. narrated it to her again.
"Your grandpa and I have been playing poison all our lives, but there is nothing I can do to counteract the venom of this jade phosphorus snake. I can only watch your father and mother die in front of my eyes. That is the biggest pain in my life..."
Having said this, Dugu Bo couldn't help but feel sad and angry and blame himself.
After listening to his grandfather's narration, Dugu Yan finally knew the true cause of his parents' death, and at the same time realized the pain that his grandfather was carrying.
"grandfather."
Looking at her grandfather's expression of regret and self-pity, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed. She quickly reached out her little hand, held her grandfather's hand tightly, and called out softly.
Feeling a hint of coldness in his granddaughter's hands, Dugu Bo felt a little better. He patted his granddaughter's hand gently to indicate that he was fine.
The grandfather and grandson flew in silence for a long time.
At this time, Dugu Yan broke the silence, and she asked in a worried tone:
"Since the Jade Phosphorus Snake Spirit has the problem of snake venom backlash, then wouldn't you and I, grandpa, have to face this problem in the future?"
Dugu Bo nodded, then shook his head:
"Not in the future, but in the present."….
"Yanyan, don't you often ask grandpa why he always disappears without a trace?"
"Every time you ask Grandpa, Grandpa will tell you that it's because I have important things to do."
"Actually...grandpa lied."
"ah?"
Hearing this, Dugu Yan immediately cast a surprised look.
Dugu Bo smiled lightly, touched his granddaughter's hair again, and said in a very calm tone:
"The real reason is... the backlash of the jade phosphorus snake venom in grandpa's body broke out, and it takes time to suppress it."
"Actually, Grandpa has been facing the severe backlash of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Venom a long time ago."
At this time, Dugu Yan suddenly remembered that his grandfather had probably been busy suppressing the backlash of poison for more than a month after his recent disappearance.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but panic, and held her grandfather's hand a little tighter:
"Grandpa, you..."
Dugu Bo stretched out his hand to stop her:
"Don't worry, listen to grandpa first."
"oh."
Although anxious and worried about her grandfather's condition, Dugu Yan
Still nodded obediently.
Then Dugubo continued:
"But fortunately, Grandpa controls a blessed land."
"Thanks to that place, Grandpa survived the violent backlash of Jade Phosphorus Snake Venom time and time again."
"Do you remember the medicine garden that grandpa once told you?"
After pondering for a moment, Dugu Yan raised his face and replied:
"Is it the one in the Sunset Forest?"
"right."
Dugu Bo nodded slightly, "Grandpa relied on it to not only suppress the backlash of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Venom and survive until now, but also allowed the martial soul to evolve from the Jade Phosphorus Snake to the Jade Phosphorus Snake King, and even used it to break through to the title Douluo realm."
"But this also brings up a big problem."
"Those are the descendants who will inherit the bloodline of my Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor. The backlash of the Jade Phosphorus Snake's venom will be even more violent. Once the backlash breaks out, the pain and torture caused will be several times greater. Moreover, it is difficult to save them with medicine, and they will definitely die. "
"Your father died because of this, and your mother was infected by your father's poison and died..."
With that said, Dugu Yan looked at his beloved granddaughter and said to her:
"And Yanyan, as my granddaughter, like your father, you have inherited my bloodline of the Jade Phosphorus Snake King."
"Originally, members of our Dugu clan, as long as we have inherited the Jade Phosphorus Snake martial spirit, have already faced the backlash of the Jade Phosphorus Snake's venom since the martial soul awakened."
"But because you inherited my bloodline, the poisonous backlash you suffered was advanced, and it started from the moment you were born."
"The color of your hair and eyes, as well as the stagnation and tingling problems in your soul power that you just mentioned, are all manifestations of the toxins backing up and corroding the body."
Dugu Bo paused and let his granddaughter, who was already a little dumbfounded, digest his words.
Then he continued:
"Since the death of your father and mother, grandpa has learned the hard way. In order to prevent you from following in the same footsteps, he has been looking for a solution to the backlash of the phosphorus snake venom over the years."
"It's a pity that the solution has never been solved."
"Not long ago, someone sent a poisonous technique to grandpa..."
"Poison Technique? Is that it?"
Dugu Yan immediately took out the book on poisonous arts from his elbow. ….
"Yes, that's it."
Dugu Bo nodded gently at her and said with a smile:
"Grandpa got this in exchange for the medicine garden in Sunset Forest."
"What?"
Dugu Yan suddenly exclaimed.
"Grandpa, didn't you want to use that medicine garden in Sunset Forest to suppress the backlash of toxins? You exchanged it to someone else, so what will you do with the backlash of toxins, grandpa?"
She was anxious.
But Dugu Bo was not anxious at all, but slowly said to her:
"It doesn't matter. With this Poison Technique, there is no need for that medicine garden."
"Have you forgotten how grandpa introduced it to you before?"
"This poison technique can be the foundation for our Dugu clan of Jade Phosphorus Snakes to settle down and establish a foundation for eternity."
"Because it... can completely resolve the poisonous backlash of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Spirit."
After listening to his grandfather's words, Dugu Yan's originally anxious heart suddenly calmed down, and his expression gradually turned into surprise. He quickly raised his eyes to look at his grandfather and asked incredulously:
"This poison technique, can it completely eliminate the poisonous backlash of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Spirit?"
"yes."
Dugu Bo nodded affirmatively:
"With it, not only you, but also your future children will no longer have to worry about the backlash of Jade Phosphorus Snake Toxin. In this way, the Dugu Clan also has hope of survival and development."
"Child, child?"
Dugu Yan's face suddenly turned red, and he glanced at Dugu Bo angrily:
"Grandpa, I'm only fifteen years old. Isn't it too much for you to tell me about your child?"
early? "
Dugu Bo laughed:
"Haha, grandpa didn't say it, it's your future child, not now."
"Oh, Grandpa!"
Dugu Yan scolded, not wanting to talk more about the child, so he quickly changed the subject and asked:
"What about you, grandpa? Where is the toxin in your body that's backfired?"
"This..."
Dugu Bo's expression was slightly solemn and he responded:
"The poison in Grandpa's body has been backfired for many years."
"By now, the toxin erosion has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and the toxin backlash has become more and more violent. I probably don't have many years left to live. But..."
Dugu Bo paused for a moment and made a cryptic expression.
"but what?"
Dugu Yan clenched her fists and placed them on her bulging chest, feeling a little nervous.
"But with this poisonous skill, it won't be a problem for grandpa to live for at least two hundred years, haha~~~"
Dugu Bo laughed loudly.
"Oh, Grandpa, can you speak without gasping? I thought something was going to happen to you, you scared me."
Dugu Yan took a deep breath, relieved, and slapped the back of his grandfather's head angrily.
"Don't worry, what could happen to grandpa? Grandpa will always be with you."
Dugu Bo said comfortingly, and then changed his words:
"Yanyan, do you know who gave this poisonous skill to grandpa?"
"Who is it?"
Dugu Yan turned his head back and asked curiously.
"This is the husband grandpa found for you."
"Is it him? How can he have such powerful skills?"
"Grandpa doesn't know about this. How about you ask him when you see him?"
"Oh, grandpa, why do you ask me to ask everything? Can't you ask clearly first and then tell me?"
"Haha, grandpa doesn't want you to have more topics to talk about when you meet him."
"Grandpa~~"
Dugu Yan's fair face turned red again.
He quickly changed the subject and asked:
"By the way, grandpa, did grandma die from the backlash of the phosphorus snake venom like my father and mother?"
"That's not true."
Dugu Bo shook his head, "Your grandma died of illness."
"Actually speaking, strictly speaking, when the Dugu clan reaches Grandpa's generation, Grandpa is not the only remaining member of the clan. There is also another one, your grandma."
"It's just that your grandma was an ordinary person without the talent of a soul master, and she was born with a weak constitution. She died of illness not long after giving birth to your father."
"So that's it."
Dugu Yan said suddenly. Suddenly, she seemed to think of something, and her mouth suddenly opened with shock on her face:
"Eh? Grandpa, you and grandma are actually from the same generation? Then aren't you...?"
