Chapter 23: The Twin Alliances Centipede
It was late at night.
I don't know where I am.
Holding a sheepskin full of acupuncture points on the human body in his hand.
The phone is completely out of battery, and it is impossible to take advantage of the light of the phone to look carefully at the sheepskin.
Lying on a pile of haystack outside the house, my mind is completely empty, looking at the starry sky, thinking about what I have experienced?
A period of aimless college time, a sky-high debt, and a marriage that envies others.
Ah~ I miss Wang Qing so much, I miss her tender eyes, I miss her slightly open cherry mouth, I miss her waterfall-like black hair, and I miss the fragrance of orchid emanating from her.
I don't know when my hands clutched two handfuls of dry grass.
It's really sad to be alone on such a lonely night.
Just in the infinite boredom, drowsiness suddenly came, just when I was about to fall asleep, I looked at my left and right hands, the hideous gloves on my hands could no longer bring me any pain, I was completely used to it, but when I saw this glove, I thought of another person.
Mengli...
Yes, I miss Mengli too, she is considerate again and again, saving me again and again, how can I miss her in my mind?
But thinking about her like this in my head, isn't I so sorry for Wang Qing!
Alas, annoying!
I fell asleep tossing and turning.
I slept so hard for a long time that I had spent such a quiet night alone.
In the dream, Wang Qing and Mengli kept arguing to let me choose one of the two, and only God knows how difficult this choice is. Seeing that I couldn't make a choice, the two of them actually came over and bit my ears, one left and one right, Mom!
The sharp pain of being bitten by my ear dragged me out of the dream, and when I opened my eyes, damn it! There were two fat centipedes hanging on my ears and biting me! This thing is highly poisonous! Although I have seen centipedes in Lizhou, I have never seen such a fat one, this centipede looks as thick as my thumb, but it is as long as my whole palm, it is so terrifying!
I hurriedly ran over and knocked on Fat San's door: "Master, Master, come out and save me, I'm dying." β
As soon as the door opened, I was unsuspectingly and fell to the ground, I didn't have time to cry out in pain, I lay on the ground and turned my head to shout to the fat three next to me: "Master, help! I was about to be bitten to death by a centipede." β
The rare condescending fat third said to me with a smile: "Don't worry, wait a little longer, wait until your ears turn black!"
What? When Lao Tzu's ears turn black? Is it still useful?
I was angry: "You dead cripple, come and help me, these two centipedes don't let go of their mouths at all, and they can't be pulled off." β
"What? Cripple?" the fat third is particularly sensitive to this title, "I also told you that today I will bite your ears black for Lao Tzu, so that Lao Tzu can be a plate of snacks." β
I wanted to get up and beat this cripple to death, but I found that my body couldn't move at all, this centipede was not only big, but also poisonous, and after a while, my whole body was paralyzed.
"You wait, you... Waitβ" I couldn't speak clearly, and my mouth was already foaming at the mouth, and my consciousness was fading away.
Poor me, I just woke up and was poisoned by a centipede.
This fainting, more people came to my dream, Lao Qintou, the third brother of the foreman, Hei Xiong, all kinds of messy people came to my dream to open a community neighborhood committee.
Suddenly, something choked in my throat, still liquid!
I was choked up.
I saw that Fat San was holding my head, feeding me something, and my tongue was gradually regaining its sense of taste.
It's a glass of spicy liquor!
I thought that the fat three were going to hurt me, so I struggled quickly.
The fat three said to me viciously: "Don't move, what I am giving you to drink now is the liquor brewed by the two centipedes just now, which can relieve the centipede poison on your body." β
It turned out that he was saving me, so I stopped struggling, and when the fat three saw that I didn't move, he said to me: "What's the matter? Don't move the kid? Let me tell you the truth, these two centipedes I found on the back of the mountain last night, I deliberately let them bite you, you must have to pass this level, only to have a strong body to accept the next training." β
After I finished drinking, my mouth and tongue were finally able to move: "Why do you want this centipede to torture me, what does this have to do with my body?"
"Hey, you kid really don't know how noble or cheap, this kind of double-league centipede only appears in this area, and it is only useful when they exist in pairs, their venom has elixir that can make your body several times stronger, but you have to take the medicinal wine brewed by this pair of centipedes immediately after poisoning to survive. β
Finally able to stand up, I hurriedly got up from Fat San's arms and bowed to Fat San, oh! No, it was Master Fat San.
The fat third master nodded to me, moved his arms just to my shoulders, adjusted his wheelchair, and said to me, "Come with me." β
When we came to a dark room, Master Fat stopped and said, "Can you see three humanoid wooden targets on the opposite side?"
In this darkroom, there is not a single window, and there is not a trace of light source entering, according to common sense, Master Fat San and I should have black eyes, and we can't see our fingers.
But now!
Not only could I see the fat third master next to me, but I could also see the three humanoid wooden rakes on the other side of the darkroom.
"I can see it, and I know it very well," I replied excitedly to the fat third master.
He flicked his beard: "It looks like the Shuangmeng centipede has worked, okay! Now I'll give you a throwing knife, I want you to shoot the four full holes of the humanoid wooden target in the middle!"
I can remember the location of the Siman acupoint, about two inches below the navel, but there are many acupuncture points such as Qi Chong, Guan Yuan, and Qu Gu around, and it is very difficult to identify them at close range, not to mention the distance from the head of the house to the end of the house about 30 meters, so far, coupled with such accurate location requirements, how can it be possible to hit with a knife?
The fat third master smiled: "What's the matter?"
I nodded tremblingly.
"Well, it seems that you are not a genius, and you need to follow the path that ordinary people take to get to the top. β
"The path taken by ordinary people?" I can always learn a lot of new words and sentences with Master Fat San.
He smiled and said to me, "Go and pick up fifty buckets of water from the Father and Son Lake five kilometers away!"
Father and son lake?
Five kilometers away?
Fifty buckets of water?
Take me away.
