Chapter 2 Black Poison
Originally, in the Fang family, in addition to Fang Tai, the head of the family, Fang Wenhong had the highest talent, the most prosperous cultivation, and was the most likely to take over the next head of the Fang family. It is said that with Fang Wenhong's status in the Fang family, Jiang Xiaofeng's brother and sister don't have to live in such a mess, but the world is unpredictable.
Three years ago, when Fang Wenhong was cultivating, he suddenly went mad and attacked his heart, and he still hasn't recovered. But this powerful candidate for the next head of the family has become Fang Zizhen's father Fang Wenxing.
Since then, Fang Wenhong has no longer been valued by the Fang family and has begun to decline. Even their father and daughter have to live with their tails between their legs, let alone take care of Jiang Xiaofeng's brother and sister.
The sister Bitong that Jiang Xiaofeng said was Fang Wenhong's daughter. Five years ago, it was Jiang Xiaofeng's grandfather and grandson who rescued her from the gangsters.
Since Fang Bitong was born, there has been a black line on her right arm, constantly eating away at her anger. Fang Wenhong searched all over the world, but he did not find a way to heal.
Fang Bitong can live to this day, all thanks to Fang Wenhong's spiritual power for her, until she met Jiang Xiaofeng's grandfather and grandson five years ago, Fang Bitong's illness had a glimmer of hope.
Whenever that black line was acting and eating away at Fang Bitong's anger, Old Man Li was able to cast a magical spell to manipulate the aura of heaven and earth and suck out a small part of the black qi in her arm.
Although it could not completely solve the poison of the black line, it also greatly relieved Fang Bitong's pain. Since then, whenever Fang Bitong was in unbearable pain, Old Man Li would cast a spell to help him detoxify.
Jiang Xiaofeng was also very strange about Old Man Li's detoxification method, but when he practiced the strange ancient method, he knew that Old Man Li was performing the exercises recorded on the yellow cloth, but he always felt that his cultivation was more pure than Old Man Li's.
"Misfortune and blessing are relied upon, and blessing and misfortune are lurking. ”
Every time Old Man Li detoxified Fang Bitong before, he often said this sentence on his lips. And after Old Man Li didn't know his life and death, the task of detoxification was handed over to Jiang Xiaofeng.
In the dim light, a pale girl lay on the bed, with dry white lips and cracked lips, and a sickly look. Her eyebrows are extremely long, like willow leaves in the wind, although it is not a country and a city, but it is also a flower and a moon, extremely lovely.
This is Fang Bitong's boudoir, at this time, there is only Jiang Xiaofeng in the room, Fang Wenhong and Jiang Xiaoxue are waiting outside the door.
Jiang Xiaofeng observed carefully for a while, and then gently held up Fang Bitong's arm, and on the white and flawless jade, a finger-long black line suddenly appeared:
"They are already unconscious, and sure enough, they are getting worse again. ”
Jiang Xiaofeng took a deep breath, then shook his head, looking helpless. He also wanted to completely solve Fang Bitong's black poison, but every time he used the ancient method that Old Man Li asked him to cultivate, he could only relieve her pain, but he couldn't completely solve it.
He didn't stay any longer, and quickly formed a magic seal on his chest, only to see that the aura of heaven and earth around him began to converge towards Fang Bitong's arm, and Jiang Xiaofeng gently stroked her jade, as if he was exploring something.
Although Fang Bitong closed his eyes, she seemed to feel his touch at this time, and her face was suddenly flushed, and Jiang Xiaofeng was concentrating, and she didn't think so much, so she snorted softly:
"Solution"
Suddenly, his palm seemed to be condensed with spiritual power, and the huge suction force pulled out some of the black lines on Fang Bitong's arm. Suddenly, Fang Bitong was relieved, her chest thrust suddenly, and she made a refreshing sound.
Just when Jiang Xiaofeng's exercises were exhausted and his headache was splitting, Fang Bitong slowly opened his eyes, saw that the person in front of him was Jiang Xiaofeng, and regardless of it, he suddenly hugged his neck and cried bitterly:
"Brother Xiaofeng, I'm so scared, I'm afraid I'll never see you again. ”
Jiang Xiaofeng became a little helpless for a while, and dealing with girls was what he was not good at. He had to raise his hands in the air, but he didn't know where to put them.
Suddenly, he only felt that his neck was hot and damp, and it turned out that Fang Bitong's tears flowed in. Jiang Xiaofeng turned his heart sideways, and thought: Rub the oil, rub the oil, Lao Tzu is out of the way.
He slowly grabbed Fang Bitong's waist, gently patted her on the back and said:
"Silly girl, why can't you see me, didn't you make an appointment with me to go to Dongli Mountain to catch demon beasts. ”
"Brother Feng, I'm so scared, woo......"
Suddenly, Fang Bitong cried even more heartache and hugged him tighter. Jiang Xiaofeng was in a dilemma, she originally wanted to comfort her, but she didn't expect to cry so much again?
Just when he was embarrassed, Fang Wenhong and Jiang Xiaoxue pushed the door and walked in, although Jiang Xiaofeng couldn't see anything with his eyes, he thought that this scene must have been seen by them, and he looked extremely embarrassed for a while.
He pushed Bitong in his arms hard, but Fang Bitong seemed to be stuck and couldn't push it. Fang Wenhong coughed suddenly, and Fang Bitong slowly let go of Jiang Xiaofeng, pouted and lay back on the bed.
Jiang Xiaofeng was relieved, and said with a long sigh:
"Uncle Wenhong, Bitong's sister's black poison has been alleviated a lot, and she needs to recuperate for a while. ”
"I don't need to recuperate!"
"Nonsense!"
Fang Wenhong glared at Fang Bitong. When he saw that Fang Bitong's face was a little bloody, his heart immediately became happy. For a long time, Fang Wenhong was extremely curious about the spells cast by Jiang Xiaofeng and Old Man Li:
His cultivation has reached the realm of the middle stage of the Enlightenment Realm, and he is helpless to take this black poison, but this kid is only the third order of spirit building, compared to his cultivation, it is a world of difference, even he can't solve the poison, Jiang Xiaofeng can actually do it, this really makes him puzzled: What kind of exercises are this kid and Old Man Li practicing, why is it so strange?
"Thanks to Uncle Li and you, if it weren't for you, Bitong's black poison, I would really be more and more helpless. ”
Jiang Xiaofeng shook his head and said:
"I can't completely eradicate this black poison, so I can only take one step at a time. Now that Bitong has gotten better, then Xiaoxue and I will go back first. ”
Fang Wenhong gently patted Jiang Xiaofeng's shoulder and said:
"If you need it, just talk to me, don't be too stubborn!"
Jiang Xiaofeng smiled and nodded, and then was carried away by Xiaoxue.
The two of them returned to their residence, and after lunch, Jiang Xiaoxue left in a hurry.
Because she still has a lot of Fang family's clothes to wash today, if she doesn't finish washing them at the specified time, I'm afraid that the Fang family won't give them a little salary this month.
Jiang Xiaofeng has the heart to help his sister, but now he is too busy to take care of himself. could only sigh and let Xiaoxue drag her thin body to do the work of those subordinates.
Throughout the afternoon, Jiang Xiaofeng was a little restless, unable to concentrate on cultivating the ancient method, and always felt that something would happen. As time passed, the dilapidated yard ushered in a rush of footsteps.
Jiang Xiaofeng was shocked, and hurriedly groped his way out. At the gate of the courtyard, Jiang Xiaoxue stood at the door in disheveled clothes, her hair was unkempt, her eyes were dull and her eyes were blank, as if she was greatly frightened.
The white clothes she was wearing were torn and tattered, her face was red and swollen, and she was obviously beaten a lot.
Xiaoxue tried her best to control her emotions, she knew that her brother had a strong sense of perception. All the tears, she was ready to swallow in her heart, he didn't want his brother to worry about him.
Although Jiang Xiaofeng couldn't see it, he could obviously feel that the atmosphere was wrong, as well as Xiaoxue's breath, which was extremely unstable. He couldn't see what was wrong with Xiaoxue, so he could only call softly:
"Xiaoxue, are you back?"
Hearing Xiao Feng's words, Xiao Xue, who had no master of the six gods, finally came back to her senses. She glanced at her brother in a daze, and originally thought that she had to hold back, but she couldn't hold back anymore after seeing her brother. All the grievances, fears, and fears were vented in one go.
She rushed to Jiang Xiaofeng, hugged her brother and cried.
Jiang Xiaofeng didn't know why, but he could clearly feel that Xiaoxue was scared, and her weak shoulders couldn't stop shaking in his arms, like a young and helpless little beast, chased by hunters and had no way to escape.
Jiang Xiaofeng cupped Xiaoxue's face and was about to ask her what was going on, but his heart seemed to be suddenly pinched. Because he could clearly feel it, Xiaoxue's face was swollen. He suddenly exposed the bruises on his forehead, and asked angrily:
"Xiaoxue, who is it, who the hell beat you like this. Tell my brother!"
Jiang Xiaofeng was like an enraged lion, his chest rose and fell violently, and his anger was at its peak.
From childhood to adulthood, Jiang Xiaofeng's most painful thing was his sister, and now that his sister is so wronged, his heart is like a knife.
At this time, Jiang Xiaoxue was already in tears, shaking her head frantically, holding Jiang Xiaofeng's hand tightly, for fear that he would do something stupid.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi standing at the door said:
"Xiao Feng, don't ask her, this kid is pitiful enough. ”
Hearing the voice, Jiang Xiaofeng immediately distinguished: This person was Elder Fang Shi of the Fang Family's Torture Hall. Elder Fang Shi is usually a decent person and has helped Jiang Xiaofeng a lot.
Jiang Xiaofeng asked anxiously:
"Elder Fang Shi, I don't know what happened, what's wrong with Xiao Xue?"
"Alas!"
Elder Fang Shi sighed lightly and said:
"Speaking of which, the Fang family has treated you badly, this god is damned! On the way back, Xiaoxue was almost accidentally slighted. Fortunately, I arrived in time to save Xiaoxue. But I have warned the man, and from now on, I guess he will not dare. You brothers and sisters must be careful in the future!"
With a "hum", Jiang Xiaofeng's head suddenly went blank:
Light and thin, Xiaoxue was almost slighted? My sister, who is usually held in the palm of her hand, was almost defiled by someone?
The anger in Jiang Xiaofeng's eyes at this time seemed to burn everything. The younger sister he loved since he was a child, almost encountered such an accident?
His voice grew from low to high, and gradually roared. His face turned red, then blue, and his neck swelled as if it was about to explode. His head was covered with beads of sweat, his mouth was full of foam, and his fists smashed on the ground with a "thump".
He didn't have to guess to know that the person in Elder Fang Shi's mouth was Fang Zizhen.
"Bastard, Fang Zizhen you bastard, I'm going to kill you!"
He raised his leg and was about to rush out, but at this moment, a huge force pulled him back, it was Elder Fang Shi of the Torture Hall, and he shouted violently:
"Xiao Feng, don't do stupid things, you will only die in vain if you go. ”
Jiang Xiaoxue ran over and hugged her brother, crying loudly:
"Brother, brother, I beg you, don't go. Xiaoxue, please, don't go, okay. Xiaoxue is good, I will definitely listen to you in the future. Woohoo......"
Xiaoxue's crying made Jiang Xiaofeng's heart even more uncomfortable. He hugged his sister and roared. That feeling of powerlessness without strength was like a boulder falling on his heart, making him feel pain in his heart and into his bone marrow.
His teeth clucked, his eyes flashed with hatred, and his angry voice spread like thunder:
"Fang family, Fang family, Fang family! What I suffered today, I, Jiang Xiaofeng, will pay it back!"
Fang Shi glanced at the two children who were lonely and helpless, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.
But he has no choice, the Fang family is actually in power now, but Fang Zizhen's father, Fang Wenxing, can only blame the lives of these two children.
Seeing that the two isolated children had finally stabilized, he sighed, and finally left the broken courtyard.
In the evening, Jiang Xiaoxue finally recovered from her fear. Seeing that it was already dark, he quietly came out to fill the fire and cook.
Feeling Jiang Xiaoxue's thin and busy figure, Jiang Xiaofeng's heart was dripping blood. My sister suffered such a big grievance during the day, and she had to take care of herself at night, Jiang Xiaofeng slammed her fist on the wall, and immediately burst into tears, but she couldn't do anything.
After the water boiled, the rice jar was opened, but Xiaoxue found that there were only a handful of rice grains left inside, and an indescribable sourness welled up in her heart. Xiaoxue sat on the ground in a daze, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, and her tears flowed down her face, and her appearance made people feel sad.
In the past, when grandpa was alive, who in the Fang family dared to treat their brothers and sisters like this, grandpa had just been gone for three years, and the Fang family felt that grandpa must have died in Dongli Mountain, and there was no value for them anymore, so they began not to treat them as human beings.
The Fang family first kicked them out of the original courtyard, and then cut off the food of their brothers and sisters, and even the rice could not be distributed in time, and even defiled themselves.
If Uncle Fang's cultivation didn't go mad, we might be better off than we are now.
"Alas!"
Xiaoxue sighed softly, picked up the rice in the jar one by one, and boiled porridge in the pot. In a big pot, I only see clear water, but it is difficult to see rice grains.
After a while, Xiaoxue put the rice porridge on the table, Jiang Xiaofeng's bowl filled all the rice in the pot, and her own was a bowl of clear water.
She picked up a wild vegetable that she had picked from outside, handed it to her brother's mouth, and said:
"Are you hungry, brother? ”
Jiang Xiaofeng opened his mouth to swallow it, there was no other taste except salty, although it was extremely unpalatable, but he still gave a thumbs up:
"Pickled wild vegetables in Koyuki taste good. ”
A pickled wild vegetable, which he chewed seemed to be a delicacy in the world, and he couldn't stop praising it.
Xiaoxue knew that her brother was deliberately pleasing herself, and although she was embarrassed, she still had a rare smile on her face.
Hearing that his sister was amused by himself, Jiang Xiaofeng smiled knowingly, but this smile seemed so thin that the tears in the corners of his eyes soaked the black cloth of the blindfold, but he didn't know it.
Since Jiang Xiaofeng cultivated Old Man Li's strange ancient method, his perception has slowly become extremely sharp, even if a needle falls on the ground, he can sense it.
So when Xiaoxue brought the rice porridge to the table, although she couldn't see it, she had already sensed Xiaoxue's bowl of clear water, but it didn't break it. He can only pretend to be now, leaving Xiaoxue to bear the pain of the past three years alone.
Xiaoxue picked up a pickled wild vegetable, put it in her mouth and chewed it slowly, the bitter taste came immediately, she frowned, and swallowed it with a "crunch".
At this moment, a girl in green suddenly broke in, holding a basket in her hand, and was about to speak, but she bumped into the scene of Xiaoxue drinking water from wild vegetables, she opened her mouth wide in surprise, covered her mouth and said:
"Xiaoxue, you ......"
Without waiting for the girl in green to finish speaking, Jiang Xiaoxue hurriedly ran to her side and covered her mouth, leaned into her ear and whispered:
"It is estimated that Fang Zizhen and they made it bad and threw away all the rice in the rice jar, so they can only make do with it today. Sister Bitong, you are doing well, don't say anything about it. You know that your brother wants to save face the most, and if you let your brother know, he will be sad. By the way, you didn't just get better, why did you get out of bed so quickly?"
"If I don't come again, you brothers and sisters will drink the northwest wind. Fang Zizhen and his father, it's really not a thing!"
Fang Bitong's face was obviously bloody, much better than when he was detoxified. It's just that when she saw the two brothers and sisters eating pickled wild vegetables and drinking water, her heart was sour, and the corners of her eyes involuntarily turned red.
"Xiaoxue, it's really hard for you, if you let your brother know, he should feel more sorry for you!"
"I'm just afraid that my brother will find out that it will be uncomfortable, so I have to do this. ”
Fang Bitong rubbed Xiaoxue's face lovingly and nodded slightly. Although the voices of the two of them were extremely weak, Jiang Xiaofeng had already heard it in his ears, and he couldn't help but feel sad for a while, and his throat began to become panicked.
Bitong put down the basket in his hand and said to Jiang Xiaofeng:
"Silly buns, see what delicious food I brought you?"
As soon as she heard Fang Bitong call her brother's nickname, Jiang Xiaoxue giggled happily.
Jiang Xiaofeng scratched his head helplessly, looking like he couldn't do anything about her. Fang Bitong has been like this since she was a child, and she has always been the object of her fun. took the bun handed over by Fang Bitong, Xiaoxue ran straight to Jiang Xiaofeng and handed it to his mouth:
"Brother, you eat first. ”
Jiang Xiaofeng smiled heartily and touched Xiaoxue's head lovingly. After they had dinner, Jiang Xiaofeng said:
"Bitong, you have just turned around, don't worry about our brothers and sisters, let's talk about it after you cultivate yourself, Uncle Wenhong should scold you again when he knows. ”
Fang Bitong smiled slyly and said:
"As long as you don't sue, how will he know that I sneaked out. By the way, stupid buns, you and Grandpa Li's detoxification method is rare in the world. These days, I heard that the eldest lady of the Ouyang family seems to have been poisoned by the red blood snake, are you interested in solving it?"
Jiang Xiaofeng shook his head and said:
"Not interested. ”
"I'm really not interested, the reward is just a spirit elixir!" Fang Bitong shook the finger in front of him and said.
"Summoning the elixir?"
Jiang Xiaofeng opened his mouth slightly in surprise:
"If I'm not mistaken, the Ouyang family is called the four major cultivation families in Yunzhou County along with your Fang family, Tu family, and Xing family, how come they can't even protect the eldest lady, and they will make her poisoned?"
Fang Bitong rolled her eyes angrily, and handed Jiang Xiaofeng a bun and said:
"If you want me to say, in fact, the eldest lady also died by herself, and she had to go to Dongli Mountain to practice. You said that the experience is the experience, but you had to shake off the guards and fight with an adult red-blooded snake, and you were bitten. ”
Jiang Xiaofeng sighed and said:
"The adult Red Blood Snake is equivalent to a seventh-order cultivator of the Spirit Building, so it's no wonder she can't beat it. ”
But this girl is deeply liked by the old head of the Ouyang family, and is looking for a spiritual doctor who can cure his granddaughter, but you know how difficult the snake venom is, I heard that several quacks have been driven away. ”
"With the background of the Ouyang family, it can't even solve the poison of the red blood snake?"
Fang Bitong suddenly laughed evilly, and said ghostly:
"Of course it can be solved, but you should know the poison of the red blood snake, even if the snake venom is removed from the internal organs, the venom will gather at the initial wound. ”
Jiang Xiaofeng pondered:
"You're right, the snake venom of the red blood snake has two solutions after it gathers into the wound: one is to cut off the carrion around the wound, and the snake venom will be clean, and the other is to ask a person who is extremely strong to infuse spiritual power into her body and force the snake venom out of the wound. ”
After listening to Jiang Xiaofeng, Fang Bitong snorted and said:
"Do you know where that poisonous snake bit Miss Ouyang?"
Jiang Xiaofeng smiled and said:
"It can't be an ass, right?"
