Nanfeng has injuries on his body, he can't walk fast, there are more than ten miles outside the mountain here, like Nanfeng is so faltering, I'm afraid that I can't go out until dawn. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In desperation, the two can only find a place to settle down along the way, but there are no abandoned houses and broken temples in the mountains, and they have been until the second watch to find a hunter woodcutter to rest in the shack, now is not the hunting and cutting wood season, the shack is uninhabited, and there is nothing in it.

The fat man came back from looking for dry firewood and lit a bonfire, which was not for heating, but mainly for smoking and roasting artemisia grass and driving away mosquitoes.

Fearing that the firelight would expose their whereabouts and cause trouble, the two tried to suppress the fire with wet artemisia as much as possible, so as to produce more smoke and less light.

There was a stream not far from the shack, and the fat man came back with a bamboo tube to quench his thirst with the south wind.

The stream water was cool, and after drinking the stream water, the south wind was slightly refreshed, took out the porcelain bottle from his arms, bit off the cork, and handed it to the fat man.

"I really don't. The fat man shook his head.

"Don't be verbose, this is what we got in exchange, even if we eat it, we won't lose our backbone. Nanfeng poured an elixir for him.

The fat man knew that Nanfeng was angry with him, so he didn't refute it, he took the pill with a smile, pinched it between his fingers and looked at it curiously, "Have you ever taken the pill before?"

"Eaten. Nanfeng said.

"Isn't it the same as this?" asked the fat man.

Nanfeng shook his head, "The pill I took is just an ordinary qi-replenishing pill, smaller than this, and the color is not the same, that one is light yellow." ”

"Why is this red?" the fat man wondered.

"The Medicine King Ding is different from the ordinary Danding, the Dan color is the complexion, and the Three Turns Spirit Pill should be this color. Nanfeng reached out and took the bamboo tube, took the pill in his hand with water, and then handed the bamboo tube to the fat man, "It's not easy to get, eat it early, so as not to lose it." ”

The fat man took the bamboo tube, put the pill in his mouth, drank water and took it.

"Wait!" South Wind cried out urgently.

Nanfeng shouted eagerly, the fat man was startled, the saliva in his mouth almost spit out, barely stopped, swallowed hard, and reached out to touch his chest, "What are you doing, I was shocked." ”

After speaking, he suddenly thought of something, "Is this pill poisonous?"

Nanfeng frowned and bowed his head, but did not answer.

"What are you doing?" the fat man asked.

Still not answering, Nanfeng got up and walked to the campfire, opened the artemisia grass, blew a flame, and looked at his right hand by the light of the campfire.

"Why are your hands red? Is the pill poisonous?" the fat man was very frightened.

"It's not. The south wind brought his right hand close to his nose, inhaled and sniffed, and there was a faint smell of sulfur.

The fat man leaned over and said, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Nanfeng grabbed the fat man's right hand, and looking at his thumb and index finger, a subtle red color could also be seen.

"Is it poisonous or not, and what are you doing on your hands?" the fat man was very unsteady.

Nanfeng tilted his head and looked at the fat man, "It should be cinnabar, cinnabar is needed for alchemy, cinnabar is the smell of sulfur, but the pill is subjected to the high temperature of the dark fire, and the impurities are gone, there should be no cinnabar residue, let alone fade." ”

"It must be inferior, this old thing is really picky, and I am not willing to give us a good one. The fat man pouted.

Nanfeng didn't answer, he vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

"Isn't it really poisonous? If it's poisonous, I might be able to spit it out now. The fat man looked at Nanfeng nervously, to be precise, Nanfeng's solemn expression made him very nervous.

"Try it and see if you can spit it out. Nanfeng said.

The fat man didn't know why, thinking that Nanfeng was not sure whether the pill was poisonous, and he beat his chest and picked his throat, so he tossed for a long time, but he just retched and couldn't spit out.

After repeated attempts, the fat man gave up, "It's over, I can't vomit, we haven't eaten for a day, my stomach is empty, if I eat something before, maybe I can vomit out." ”

"The pill is not poisonous. Nanfeng said.

"Huh?!" the fat man was so angry that he bared his teeth and glared, "It's not poisonous, what are you asking me to vomit?"

"I suspect that the two pills that Uncle Wang gave us have been impregnated with cinnabar. Nanfeng said that Uncle Wang had stayed in the East House for a period of time before, the door was closed, and everyone only thought that he had taken the pill from the hidden place, but no one knew what Uncle Wang had done inside.

"It's really too deceitful, and it's a fake, I really shouldn't save him, let him suffocate to death. The fat man cursed angrily.

"Where do you want to go," Nanfeng re-covered the bonfire with Artemisia Grass, "We may be wrong for him, I suspect that the two pills we ate earlier are not just three turns, but better pills." ”

"Counterfeiting is shoddy, and it's the first time I've heard of good stuff," the fat man suddenly thought of something when he said this, "Is he afraid that those people will be red and rob us of the pill, so he used cinnabar to dye the pill red?"

Nanfeng nodded, "It is very likely that Yuan Anning once said one thing, in the early years, a Liang Guowu man exchanged a chariot from Uncle Wang for a seven-turn spirit pill, and this person was killed that night, disemboweled, and died a miserable death. ”

The fat man suddenly realized, "The husband is not guilty, and the family is not guilty." ”

Nanfeng was too lazy to correct the fat man's miswords, and said, "Worrying about bringing disaster to us may only be one of the reasons, and another reason is that if Uncle Wang gives us a high-quality elixir, he must also give those martial artists the same elixir, otherwise they will be dissatisfied." ”

"If you are not afraid of nothing, you are afraid of unevenness. The fat man nodded.

"It's not that you suffer from widowhood but unevenness," Nanfeng couldn't help but correct, "You don't know how to write and ink, don't learn the official language of that scholar, it's not good, it sounds awkward." ”

The fat man was not angry when he was criticized, and said, "Do you think we have really wronged good people?"

Nanfeng nodded, "Ninety percent likely, Uncle Wang should have deliberately put the pill into a porcelain bottle from the main hall, just to let everyone see the color of the pill." ”

The fat man didn't ask again, but the look on his face was still skeptical.

Seeing the fat man's expression, Nanfeng said again, "If you are careful, you can see from Uncle Wang's words that he doesn't want to take revenge, otherwise he won't fail to tell those martial opponents that Li Chaozong and Wang Zhong are them." He didn't tell these people who did it, he should have two intentions, one is to calm things down, and he doesn't want to make things bigger. There is also the fact that he doesn't want to embarrass those martial artists, if they know that Li Chaozong did this, they will be in a dilemma, go and help Uncle Wang avenge, they can't beat Li Chaozong. If you don't go, it's hard to explain to Uncle Wang. ”

"What do you think this has to do with us?" the fat man threw artemisia grass into the campfire.

"I mean Uncle Wang is very calm and thoughtful, in order not to cause trouble for us, it is very likely that he will dye the two pills for us. Nanfeng said.

"If he is really that smart, he should be able to see that we went for the pill from the beginning, our motives are not pure, and he can't like us. The fat man said.

"You're right, he probably doesn't like us," Nanfeng said, pointing north, "Do you remember that couplet on the torii?"

"What couplet?" the fat man didn't even look at the archway.

"Fengming Mountain under the archway carved a couplet: easy to change the way of heaven, gain and loss should be yin and yang, this should be Uncle Wang's motto, but also his code of conduct, through this couplet it is not difficult to see that he has a deep understanding of human temperament, and does not demand the purity of people's hearts. Nanfeng said.

"You mean that he doesn't care what others think, just what others do?" the fat man seemed to understand.

"That's right," Nanfeng Zhengse nodded, "He doesn't care what the other party does, just see if the other party does it or not, although we have selfish intentions, but we saved his life, he should reward us heavily, so I suspect that the two pills he gave us were dyed." ”

"If that's the case, do you think he gave us a few pills?" the fat man asked.

Nanfeng shook his head again, "It's hard to say, four or five should be more than four, six is likely, and seven turns are also possible." ”

"Alas, it's a strange thing, or let's not leave in a hurry, when those martial artists are gone, let's go back again, accompany others, and by the way, ask him what kind of pill he gave us." "The fat man has a real temperament, and he will change his mistakes when he knows them.

Nanfeng leaned back, closed his eyes and prepared to rest, "There's no need, the pill was exchanged for us, and it's already cleared." Besides, the pill has already been eaten, and I will always know after a few turns. ”

The fat man did not insist on going back, and threw the remaining firewood into the campfire and covered it with some artemisia.

"By the way," the fat man suddenly remembered something, "The medicine king gave you a pulse, do you think he will find ......?"

"No, it won't. The south wind interrupted the fat man's words, the meridians are the path of the aura, the meridians are damaged, and no one can probe the situation inside the dantian.

At this time, it was nearly three watches, and the fat man was also very tired, yawned, and went out to relieve his belt and relieve his hands, but as soon as he walked out of the shack, he came back eagerly, "Hurry up, someone is coming......"
