Early in the morning, Wu Ma Xin took a breath of fresh air and said, "Yiyi, before going to the Medicine Valley, I want to go to that well to have a look. ”

Long Yiyi shook his washed hair back and promised, "Okay, I'll go after breakfast." ”

"Yi Yi, are you really going to the Medicine Valley?" Yi Yi Niang filled the porridge for the two of them and asked carefully.

"Mother, Peize and I grew up as children, and we can't see death without help. Not only do I have to go to the medicine valley, but I also have to go to the well. Of course, Yi Yi understood his mother's worries, "Don't worry, with Big Brother Wuma, no monster can hurt me." ”

Yi Yiniang's heavy sigh smashed Long Yiyi's heart ache, but she couldn't bear the sixty-three villages, the joy of birth and the sadness of death always came at the same time.

Yi Yiniang took out a package and handed it to Long Yiyi: "Mother knows that you have your thoughts, and my mother will not stop you, here are some dry food, as well as the silver taels of Fuquan every month, you take it with you on the road, remember to come back to see your mother more." ”

"Mother. Long Yi's eyes turned red, "Don't worry, I will come back to accompany you after I have done what I have to do, and I will never leave you again for the rest of my life." ”

Wu Ma couldn't help but think of his mother, and his heart couldn't help but feel sour, she had never grown old, and what was fixed in her mind was always that young and beautiful face.

Long Yi left the house step by step, she didn't want her mother to worry, but she couldn't let herself give up, she had to get the life she wanted.

When they came out of the house, the two men were noticeably silent. Wu Ma Xin didn't know how to persuade her, so she had to find a topic and ask Long Yiyi: "What day is the Nine Poisons Day you said before?"

"Oooh. Long Yiyi came back to his senses and tried to restore himself to his original appearance, "The fifth month of the lunar calendar is commonly known as the poison month, starting on the fifth day of the fifth month of the fifth month, the sixth, seventh, fifteenth, sixteenth, seventeenth, twenty-fifth, twenty-sixth, and twenty-seventh, and these nine days are called 'Heaven and Earth Jiaotai Nine Poison Day'. These nine days were very evil, take a foot of new white cloth, and hang it on the east wall that night, and the next morning there will be blood. ”

"That's what your village Langzhong told you?"

"No," Long Yiyi said, "It's what my master told me, including that you can go to the well on the Nine Poison Day." ”

"Your master must be a senior master. ”

"Of course!" Long Yiyi's face was full of pride, and then he became lonely again, unwilling to continue talking about Master, and changed the subject: "Look, there is that well ahead. ”

It is an ancient well that has long been abandoned, the diameter of the wellhead is close to one zhang, and the well fence is inlaid with six bluestone slabs, and the middle of the stone slabs is connected with bronze, and the bronze beast is cast. The railings were covered with rope marks, some even several inches deep. Outside the well fence is a large area of black-brown dried large-leaved grass, which is suitable for wild grass to grow wildly because no one has come here to fetch water for a long time.

Wu Ma Xin walked to the well, picked a few leaves and smelled them, it was similar to the smell of the grass that the senior brother often picked, and quickly picked a few pieces and put them in a cloth bag. Long Yiyi looked at him stunned on the side and asked, "What are you picking this weed for?"

"Take it to my brother. Wu Ma said without raising his heart, "This is not a weed, it is a dragon crushing grass, which is especially suitable for making a bourne, and it is even rarer to grow to this color, even if it was difficult to meet on the barren mountains before." ”

"Woo Baku?"

"Well, I can't tell, but when you see my senior brother in the future, you'll know. ”

"Oh. Long Yi didn't have much to do, so he picked it up together, and the two of them soon picked it to the well. Wu Ma Xin looked into the well for a moment, and suddenly felt a cold air rise up, cold to the bone.

Wu Ma took two steps back and said, "There is really something strange in this well, and when the matter of the Medicine Valley is solved, you have to ask my senior brother." ”

"Well, don't worry, there's still a month left before the Nine Poisons Day. ”

"Not in a hurry?"

"Alas, after so many years, I don't dare to rush for a long time. Long Yiyi smiled bitterly, packed up the withered grass, and pulled Wu Ma Xin towards the outside of the village.

Wu Ma's heart was distressed for a while.

The distance between Mishan Village is very close, and a faint red mist valley appears in front of it, which must be the Medicine Valley.

"Legend has it that the king of medicine practices medicine here all the year round, and the smoke in the valley is poisonous, and insects and birds cannot survive, so we must be careful. Long Yiyi said worriedly.

"It's all right," said Wu Maxin, "have you ever dived?"

"Well, dive a little. Long Yiyi replied, although she is not a master, but she often plays with her friends like this, why did he ask this?

Wu Ma Xin tore off two pieces of cloth from his clothes, wet them with stream water, and said: "There are poisonous miasma in many places on the mountain where we used to live, which seem to be the same, but in fact there are two kinds: one is qi, which should cover the mouth and nose with a wet cloth and breathe with the mouth, so that the poisonous gas cannot enter the brain from the nose and cause damage; It's obviously qi here, so let's just use a dive-like breathing technique. ”

"Oh, why are you so inked, the water is dry. Long Yi gave him a blank look, and then wet the cloth with water and said, "Let's go quickly." ”

Wu Ma smiled wryly and hurriedly followed her into the Medicine Valley.

The medicine valley is full of exotic flowers and plants, and rare medicinal herbs that are rare to see outside grow on the roadside like weeds here. The smoke in the valley was much thicker than what you could see from the outside, but the smell was very good.

The two of them walked cautiously, and walked for about a pillar of incense, and through the smoke they could faintly see three thatched houses, and several medicine stoves in the courtyard were full of firewood, exuding a reddish mist outward, and a few large vats in the mist appeared from time to time.

Wu Ma Xin gently pulled Long Yi to squat down, made a silent gesture, and at the same time, with a slight wave of his right hand, several silver needles hit the medicine stove, making a "ding" sound.

There was no movement in the thatched hut.

The two of them clenched their mouths and noses and came to the front, in the middle of the courtyard was a medicine furnace made of gold, all kinds of rare and exotic herbs were tumbling in the medicinal soup, the red mist was steaming, around it were five large vats, and then outward were five smaller medicine stoves, all placed according to the direction of the five elements. Wu Ma Xin came to a large vat, and the whole person was immediately shocked, each vaat was filled with medicinal juice, and the people soaked in it were all naked people, both men and women, and their eyes were closed.

Long Yiyi frowned and pinched his nose to check the medicine jar, and suddenly held the edge of the jar with both hands in shock and shouted: "Pei Ze, I'm Yiyi, what's wrong with you? Why are you here?"

Wen Peize's hair was tied into an extremely beautiful bun, soaked in potion below the shoulders, his skin was like snow, glowing, and his delicate collarbones loomed in the mist. His eyes were closed as if he were asleep, and his lips occasionally opened slightly. Through the potion downward, the outline of her plump body could be vaguely seen.

Don't look at indecent things, Wu Ma Xin hurriedly don't turn his head.

A loud shout came from afar: "Who is so bold and dares to break into the forbidden land of my medicine house!"

Although Wu Ma Xin has excellent hearing, because of the disturbance of the female body at the first sight, he didn't even notice that someone was approaching, so he hurriedly guarded his mind, and from the footsteps he could tell that it was an old man and a young man, and at the same time as he turned his head, six silver needles had already flown out of his hand.

Just a place far away from Wu Maxin's half-bull's roar, two people, an old man and a young man, were fixed there by the silver needle, unable to move. Both of them have long hair shawls, the old one is a white hair with a few locks of black hair in the middle, and it is close to the age of the hanging car, and the younger one is a black hair with a few locks of white hair in the middle, just the year of holding the plow.

Wu Ma was about to step forward, when suddenly his brain exploded like pain, and then it was as uncomfortable as the whole brain shrunk a few times, his legs were weak, and he couldn't move when he sat cross-legged on the ground, and Long Yiyi also relied on holding on to the medicine tank to stand firm.

The white-haired old man laughed and said: "Just sucked the smoke of the old man's Five Elements Medicine House, naturally there is nothing to do, but with the medicine that the old man just spilled, that is, the poison of the corpse brain, you just can't stand and walk at the moment, and in a moment, you will lose all the functions of your five senses and become a waste." ”

Wu Ma Xin found that the silver needle stabbed at the Cloud Gate Cave was blocked by the old man, but fortunately he was not speechless. Wu Ma said angrily: "You two villains, you dare to plot against us. ”

"How can this be reasonable!" said the white-haired old man angrily, "You trespassed on the old man's medicine house, and stabbed us with silver needles, and dared to say that we are villains." ”

"In the name of refining medicine, if you do unkind things, everyone will be punished. Long Yi clenched his teeth, and his face turned red.

"Bold, Fang Yuan Thousand Roars (Thousand Ox Roars) all respect me as the King of Medicine, how dare you two children speak so disrespectfully. ”

All four of them couldn't move, so they scolded each other in the air.

"What a medicine king. Wu Ma said contemptuously, "In order to test the medicine, he even disregarded the life of his grandson, he used a knife to cut when he refined the traumatic medicine, poisoned when he practiced the antidote, and burned the scalding medicine when he practiced it, do you dare to deny it?"

"How can I educate my grandchildren and ask you to take care of them?" The medicine king heard them say it with gritted teeth, but he also felt upright and cute, and few people in the valley came, but he was interested in chatting, "People who refine medicine, if they don't test the medicine themselves, how can they know the properties of the medicine, how can they determine the efficacy of the medicine, if they dare to prescribe the medicine to others at will without trying, what is the difference between it and killing people for money?" Not only my grandchildren, but I myself have often tried the medicine myself, cutting the wound medicine with a knife, taking the antidote poison, and burning the scalding medicine. ”

"Hmph, that's so nice, you shamelessly refining the medicine in the house, what explanation do you have to explain if you catch an innocent girl and spoil your grandson, won't it also be to judge the efficacy of the medicine, despicable and dirty!" Long Yi became more and more excited the more he spoke, with a look of disdain and disdain.

"You...... Hahahaha," the Medicine King laughed angrily and said with a sigh, "There is a lot of ignorance in the countryside, and the world is shallow. When have my grandchildren ruined the innocent, and those women who had voluntarily tried medicine because they or their families had saved me for their kindness, if I refused, they would kneel before the house and refuse to leave. Although I don't care about the so-called ethics of you laymen, I don't do anything that is difficult for strong people. ”

Long Yiyi pointed to the water tank behind him with his hand and said angrily: "What's going on with Peze!"

"Oh, do you know her, so it seems that you are also from the sixty-third village," the medicine king raised his head, twisted his equally gray beard, and had a proud expression on his face, "If it weren't for the old man, how could there be this sixty-fourth person in your village." ”

"You talk nonsense!"

"Yiyi," a faint voice came from behind him, "what the Medicine King's predecessor said is true. ”
