Chapter 294: Investigating the Soldiers (Part II)
Admittedly, this startled Brother Ming'er.
He threw down his dagger and was about to crouch down to see what was going on with the soldier, but his arm was pulled by a pull. Brother Ming'er looked back and was full of questions: "Master? ”
Master Miao pulled him to his side, glanced at the soldier lying on the ground and watching the sky, and said, "Don't worry about him, this soldier is dead." ”
"Master, you ......" Brother Ming'er was puzzled by Master's attitude of being so pessimistic about life.
Master Miao swept around the other soldiers who had begun to be agitated again, and his usually gentle face carried a warning that could not be ignored.
"He died, and the Gu worms in his body lost their hosts, and they will soon crawl out to find a new host." Master Miao said, slowly letting go of Brother Ming'er, he believed that Brother Ming'er knew what he meant.
Brother Ming'er looked at the dead soldier, and his hands clenched involuntarily. "Master, what should we do? Use the potion you used last time? ”
The potion from last time could turn an entire living person into a mess of water, which had to be impressive.
At the mention of that potion, the soldiers who witnessed it involuntarily retreated, and they all felt creepy when they saw it at the time, let alone use it on themselves.
Out of nowhere, Master Miao took out a bottle three fingers wide, as well as a pair of chopsticks that suddenly appeared in his right hand.
Brother Ming'er: "......, "Master, what is this trying to do?" Hungry and want to eat?
When Master Miao handed over the things in his hand halfway, he suddenly took them back, originally these things should be experienced as a child of the Miao family, but on Brother Ming'er's body, Master Miao hesitated a little, these things are not operated properly, although they do not hurt the name, injuries are inevitable.
Brother Ming'er looked at him and his master seemed to want to give him the bottle and chopsticks, but before he could reach out to take it, the master took it back.
Master Miao sighed slightly and said: "Detoxification requires knowing the composition of poison, and Gu poison is the same, all things are mutually restrained, only understanding can solve it, you step back, for the teacher, you have to catch this Gu worm to decompose more of its song essence." ”
Brother Ming'er seemed to understand something, and secretly wondered in his heart, could it be that the master just wanted him to catch the Gu worm? But why...... and decided to take it back by himself, is it not worrying about him? Although he really didn't know how to catch the Gu worm with chopsticks.
Master Miao's eyes were all fixed on the dead soldier, waiting for the Gu worm to emerge from a certain part of his body.
The wait is a long thing, Brother Ming'er wants to talk to the master, the atmosphere is so tense, he doesn't dare to disturb it.
Until, a white strip came out of the soldier's nostrils, and Master Miao was unmoved, shaking the chopsticks in his hand.
When the slender white worm drilled out half the length of chopsticks, Master Miao's eyes were fast, and he couldn't see his movements clearly, only the afterimage of his sleeves was seen, and when he saw it, the Gu worm was gone, and Master Miao was tightening the bottle.
Everyone: "......"
Brother Ming'er kept staring at Master Miao, but he simply saw two or three steps. Master Miao first bypassed the front, and used chopsticks to roll up the Gu worm with chopsticks and noodles from the side, and then in the blink of an eye, he could already see Master Miao twist the lid.
At this speed, Brother Ming'er sighed beyond his reach.
Master Miao put the bottle back under the cloak, turned his head to look at Brother Ming'er and said, "Can Ming'er see clearly?" ”
Brother Ming'er shook his head honestly, "Master is fast, the apprentice only knows that you clamp the Gu worm from the side and pull it one by one, which requires skill." ”
Master Miao smiled a little again, "It's good to be able to see these movements clearly, you can practice this pinch method when you have time, of course, it is only for individual Gu worms." ”
"Yes, Master, the apprentice knows." Brother Ming'er's eyes were aimed at the dead soldier, and the Gu worm had just left for a while, and there were corpse spots on his body, which was really strange.
Master Miao motioned to Brother Ming'er to continue to look at the physical condition of the other soldiers, and the other soldiers couldn't help but retreat when they saw Brother Ming'er.
Master Miao reminded: "You can tell by the color of the whites of their eyes, their skin, and their perceptions. ”
After a cup of tea, Brother Ming'er turned back to Master Miao and said, "Master, I'm ......."
Master Miao didn't say anything, just walked up to him, and sentenced those soldiers to death in clear words: "This one will die tomorrow, this day after tomorrow, this one will ...... today."
After a few words, except for the young man who was not far behind them, the other soldiers all had gray faces. was sentenced to death by the master, and it was too direct.
Master Miao didn't care about their reactions at all, and left the courtyard with Brother Ming'er and the young Shan Xing.
Brother Ming'er turned his head when he walked to the gate of the courtyard, and there was pity for these soldiers in his eyes.
Master Miao stopped and ordered the soldiers who had been guarding the door to cremate the dead soldiers.
Brother Ming'er raised his eyes and glanced at Shan Xing, who was three steps away behind him, and after agreeing to Master Miao's proposal, he kept his face indifferent, no matter what he heard, he didn't even raise his eyelids.
After the soldiers at the door left, Master Miao looked at Brother Ming'er and said, "Ming'er, those who do big things can't be indecisive, it's a fact that they will die, whether you say it or not, they will survive?" Dealing with this kind of Gu insect in Miaojiang has always been dealt with directly. ”
Brother Ming'er knew that he couldn't say it, and he couldn't do it.
Master Miao continued: "Your soft-heartedness and hesitation will cause more people to suffer. If you don't deal with their affairs, after the Gu worms leave the host, they will continue to look for the next parasite, most likely to find someone to parasitize. This is the first time to be considerate of you for the teacher, don't do it again next time. ”
"It's Master, the apprentice knows." Brother Ming'er bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
Master Miao didn't want to say more, but this matter really can't be indulged, and it is difficult for those who succeed to succeed without decisiveness.
Brother Ming'er and the young man Shan Xing watched the soldiers dispose of the corpse, and then followed Master Miao back to Beiyuan.
After returning to Beiyuan, the two masters and uncles were working hard in the quiet courtyard. A small stone table is filled with various medicinal herbs and bamboo tubes.
The serious atmosphere spread around the two of them, making Brother Ming'er a little uncomfortable. Accustomed to their nonsensical bickering, but the style of painting changed so quickly.
Master Miao seemed to be very accustomed to this, patted Brother Ming'er's shoulder, and motioned for him and Shan Xing to come in.
In the wing room, Master Miao didn't care about the apprentices and the young man who were trying the medicine standing on the side, he turned his back to what they were doing, and after a while, he turned back and looked at the young man Shan Xing and said, "Do you want to take out the Gu worms directly and endure the pain of drilling your heart, or do you want to take your time with green water?" ”
Brother Ming'er listened to the long flow of green water and seemed to feel that something was wrong there.
The young man Shan Xing raised his head, without any hesitation, and said directly: "Please take it directly from the master." ”
Brother Ming'er walked up to the master and asked in a low voice, "Master, can Shan Xing directly take out the Gu worms?" Is there still salvation? ”
Master Miao smiled, and the words he said were so chilling, "Disciple, if you don't cure him, how can you test those Gu worms?" ”
Brother Ming'er: "......"
He really wanted to ask, did every Gu Master have to find a living person to practice?
Master Miao never avoided Shan Xing when he spoke, and Shan Xing only heard Master Miao's words this time, so he raised his head and looked at the big and small backs with some reactions.
After a moment, he lowered his head again, if the master did not save him, what awaited him was nothing more than a dead end. It is true that he could choose to die rather than be trampled on.
But he didn't want to die! I don't want to end my life by doing nothing.
Master Miao nodded when he got the answer, turned to a bamboo tube, pointed to the chaise longue and said to the young man Shan Xing, "You lie down." ”
Brother Ming'er looked at Shan Xing and did it without saying a word, Master Miao patted his head and said: "Later, we will see how the master leads the Gu, you have already started to practice the Inner Sutra, and it is easier to lead the Gu for the first time, and you also need to be cautious, because after one failure, the second time the Gu worm will learn to be obedient." ”
"If you just blindly chase it, when you are in a hurry, the Gu worm may break into the area such as the Death Cave, then it will deepen the death of the person who is in the Gu Cave."
Brother Ming'er said: "So before attracting the Gu, confirm the approximate location of the Gu worm, if it is in a dangerous area, find a way to get rid of it first, if not, directly seal the acupuncture points of the person in the Gu?" ”
"Well, yes, it does. Ming'er, you also need to remember that if the Gu worm is stimulated, the sealing of the acupoint may be drilled by the Gu worm, there are too many situations that occur in the process, after the specific encounter, the first thing to do is to calm down, and then find a way to solve it. "Master Miao has always been very optimistic about Brother Ming'er's understanding.
He has so many disciples, and only his attitude towards Brother Ming'er is special. Because of his talents, he has regarded Brother Ming'er as a mantle of inheritance, even if Brother Ming'er is from the Central Plains, he will not stay in Miaojiang.
Brother Ming'er has always been very instructive about his master's words, and since he learned about Gu worms, his master has opened a new door for him.
Master Miao walked in front of the young man Shan Xing, and suddenly turned his head to look at Brother Ming'er, "Ming'er, can you understand your inner experience through the carriage?" That's the key to controlling Gu worms. ”
When Brother Ming'er heard the inner scripture, the content automatically flashed in his mind, so he responded: "Back to Master, I remember it, those who don't understand will ask you clearly in the carriage." ”
"Okay, you come to lure Gu." Master Miao said.
Brother Ming'er was stunned: "......" He realized that his master could also surprise him in minutes, more reliable than those two masters, and more casual than those two masters.
"What? Can't? Master Miao raised his eyebrows and said, didn't he find this young man just to make this little apprentice progress as soon as possible? The trend of the Central Plains is so nervous, in case he can't stay by Brother Ming'er's side if something happens, once something happens, it will be too late, and no guarantee is as strong as his own.
Brother Ming'er didn't dare to say no, he glanced at the young man Shan Xing, and the other party looked at him quietly, not disgusted or afraid, but it revealed the aura of being slaughtered. The corners of Brother Ming'er's mouth twitched, it was the first time he had seen such disrespect for him, and he told him so directly and clearly with his actions, falling into your hands, life and death are up to you.
Just at his meaning, Brother Ming'er still didn't admit defeat, he took the bamboo tube from Master Miao's hand, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.
Master Miao smiled: "Don't worry Ming'er, if the teacher is guarding next to you, you won't have an accident." ”
But what I'm afraid of is that something will happen to the person lying on the couch! Brother Ming'er looked at the floor helplessly and thought.
He finally sat on the edge of the collapse, trying to untie the clothes of the young Shan Xing, because Master Miao refused the supply of the stove in the general's mansion, and in their opinion, the winter in the Central Plains was much warmer than in Miao Jiang.
So the whole wing room was cold, and Shan Xing stopped Brother Ming'er's movements. He glanced at Master Miao, and stripped his shirt by himself, his thin and sturdy body trembled slightly in the low temperature.
