Chapter 428: Antidote
At this time, the old man came over, and when he saw Zhong Qing's appearance, he was a little surprised, and he couldn't help but look twice. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhong Qing's face turned red, he had always paid attention to appearance, and he really hadn't tried to look so disheveled in front of people, he hurriedly tightened the clothes that had just been cut by Gu Zhirong with a knife, so as not to be too rude.
Gu Zhirong understood. It seems that this young man called Zhongqing must have received a good family education, has a humble gentleman's knowledge and courtesy, and does not like to be disheveled in front of people, that is to say, this person pays great attention to appearance, even in such an embarrassing situation, he must maintain his dignity, presumably he must be a person with status and status in Yuedi.
So she turned around and whispered a few words to Mingyue, who nodded and turned around.
The old man saw that Zhong Qing had an injury on his hand, so he became nervous and hurriedly asked, "Zhong Qing, what's wrong, are you injured, are you seriously injured?"
Don't look at the old man's majestic appearance on weekdays, and he doesn't take special care of the young master they say, but when the little master was injured, the old man was unusually nervous.
He took three steps and made two steps, ran to Zhong Qing, took his hand, carefully examined the wound, then looked at his face again, and then asked Gu Zhirong about the shape of the poisonous snake that bit their little master, and finally, he pondered for a moment, took out a small jade bottle from his sleeve pocket, poured out two pills for Zhong Qing to eat, and only then did he sigh softly when he saw that Zhong Qing's face was no longer dark.
"Miss Gu Wu. The old man turned to Gu Zhirong, his face full of gratitude and approval, "Thanks to Miss Gu Wu's help, the young master was able to save his life, and the old man is grateful." ”
Gu Zhirong shook his head: "The things that raise your hands are not enough to worry about." ”
Just now, she was very surprised to see. She guessed that the green bottle in the old man's hand must be snake medicine. Snake medicine is generally developed from antivenom, so the effect is very good. However, it is targeted, such as being bitten by a cobra, then you must use a snake medicine that specializes in detoxifying cobra venom, and other types of snake medicine may not have miraculous effects, which is similar to the modern poisonous snake bite, you must explain to the doctor what kind of poisonous snake bite you are, so as to find the most appropriate serum detoxification is a reason.
Therefore, Gu Zhirong looked at the old man in surprise: "Old man, do you know what kind of poisonous snake it is?"
The world is big, and there are many varieties of poisonous snakes. According to the type of venomous snake infested in the area, local snake catchers often bring their own snake medicine, so snake medicine is also distributed according to the region. Like these poisonous snakes in the current Hangji Temple, it is clear that they were brought by people with other intentions. It is very difficult to find snake medicine to deal with the venomous snake of this kind of exotic snake. Gu Zhirong didn't doubt the old man's ability, but when she saw him, she could immediately determine which kind of poisonous snake this snake was, but she had to guess the origin of this old man and the person who domesticated the poisonous snake.
The old man saw the confusion in Gu Zhirong's eyes, sighed and said, "Speaking of which, it's our fault, those snakes are specifically aimed at us. ”
Gu Zhirong's eyes widened in surprise: "What do you say?"
The old man sighed and said, "When Miss Gu Wu described the shape of the snake, I had already guessed seven or eight points. This kind of snake was not produced by us in the land, but domesticated by my junior brother. I have always had the habit of raising poisonous snakes, every year there are people from the division to go out, to Changbai Mountain to take snake eggs, this snake eggs are particular, must be a kind of white-headed and black-body snake, this snake is extremely poisonous, take the snake eggs back, hatch, feed them with centipedes, scorpions, mice and the like, enhance its toxicity, through many years of domestication, specially used as a weapon of attack. ”
Gu Zhirong looked at the old man in surprise, she didn't expect that the old man's inheritance was so evil. Raising snakes to kill people, isn't this a killing organization on the rivers and lakes?
The old man smiled, and then said: "However, Miss Gu Wu, don't misunderstand, it's just that the master has been deceived and gone astray. In the past 100 years, the sect has cleared the source, eliminated these evil people, and expelled them from the sect. ”
Gu Zhirong thought for a while, and then said, "Then according to what the old man said, why did that junior brother of yours domesticate poisonous snakes?"
The old man sighed and said: "My junior brother is also a ghost for a while, and I don't know where he got the secret of domesticating poisonous snakes, so he actually abandoned his master and disappeared without a trace. This visit has been unsuccessful for many years. I came here this time, and I didn't know that my junior brother would appear here. I carried these snake medicines, but I always carried them with me, just in case, but I didn't expect them to come in handy this time. ”
Gu Zhirong tightened his brows.
If you follow what the old man said, then it can basically be concluded that the snake keeper is not in the same group as the thieves under the mountain.
But think about it, if the snake keepers were in the same league as the bandits down the mountain, there was no need for the snakes to bite the people on the mountain. After all, they have been besieged for so long, and if they kill all the people on the mountain at this time, won't it be a failure? Besides, according to her guess, the fundamental purpose of those people under the mountain is not to take the lives of the people on the mountain, they just want to hold the queen mother and the crown prince hostage in order to achieve their ulterior motives.
If you guess like this, since the people who let the snake have nothing to do with the bandits, it is naturally related to these people who came from the land.
"Your people are out of ghosts!" Gu Zhirong said lightly.
The old man's face changed suddenly.
He always thought that his actions were secret and seamless. And the people selected are all soldiers who they can trust, how can there be internal ghosts?
Now that the situation is complicated and there is a problem inside, the old man's brows are tightly locked, thinking of countermeasures.
Gu Zhirong said lightly again: "Do you want me to help you find out the inner ghost?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but rejoice: "Miss Gu Wu, what is a good way?"
Gu Zhirong smiled slightly, walked over, and whispered in his ear for a while. The old man smiled as he listened, and said, "Miss Gu Wu, the old man will do it." ”
Gu Zhirong nodded.
The old man hurried away.
At this time, Mingyue also folded back, holding a clean shirt in her hand, and handed it to Zhong Qing.
Zhong Qing frowned: "What are you going to do?"
Mingyue said kindly: "Childe, our young lady saw that your clothes were torn, so let the slave maid take a piece of clothing and put it on for you." ”
"I don't wear clothes that other people have worn!" Zhong Qing's young master's temper came up again, stubbornly refusing to ask for that dress.
Gu Zhirong took the clothes and threw them on his body: "Do you like to wear them!"
Then he said to Mingyue: "Let's go!"
Zhong Qing was stunned for a long time, watched Gu Zhirong leave with Mingyue, and muttered, "Really gone?"
Looking down at the shirt in front of me, it was a man's shirt, although it was a little old, but looking at the size, it seemed to fit quite well. He looked around, but hid in the woods and changed his clothes.
Mingyue followed behind Gu Zhirong and gave a thumbs up: "Miss, you are so powerful." ”
Gu Zhirong said: "It's nothing, the bear child really can't get used to it." ”
"What, what bear child?" Mingyue said she didn't understand. (To be continued.) )
