Walking to an open place, you can see a few houses, there are a few wind lamps hanging under the eaves, swaying gently with the cold wind, although the lights are not bright, but for Bai Xiaoman and his party who have been walking for a long time, it is enough.

Qiu Li walked in the front, took a few steps down, pushed open a bamboo door, turned his head, and told again: "When you see my master for a while, don't talk nonsense, look at my eyes." ”

Several people hurriedly nodded in agreement.

After entering the house, Qiu Li motioned for everyone to wait behind, and then walked in first, and an old and hoarse voice came: "Qiu Li, why did you come back so late?" ”

Qiu Li lowered his eyebrows and replied pleasing to the eye: "Today, when the sun is almost set, the snakes have not yet returned, and the disciple has gone out to look for them." ”

The old man's voice was a little majestic: "Then you went out to find a group of snakes, how did you bring back a group of people?" Have you forgotten the rules of being a teacher? ”

Qiu Li immediately knelt down and admitted his mistake: "The disciple didn't dare to forget, but the disciple and these people were friends who had known each other, and when they saw that they were in trouble, they begged to come to our door, and they couldn't bear to refuse, so they dared to bring it back and begged the master to help them." ”

There was a squeaky sound, Bai Xiaoman looked sideways and looked inside, only to see a very old-looking mother-in-law, walking out very slowly and with difficulty on crutches.

She walked up to the kneeling Qiuli, sighed, and said helplessly: "How many years have you been with me, and you still don't know the temper of the teacher?" What do you do on your knees? Can I still be really mad at you? It's so cold, the mountains are dark and damp, watch your knees. ”

Qiu Li got up at this time, and his voice was still loud: "Let the master worry, it's really a disciple's unfilial piety." ”

The old woman sighed again: "You child, you are stubborn. Get up and speak, the friend who can make you kneel down is someone who is very important to you. ”

Qiu Li stood up and explained in a low voice: "It was my very good friends in the past, and they really had no choice, so they came to Qiongshan thousands of miles to ask the master. ”

The old woman's tone was gentle, and she had already walked to the door, Bai Xiaoman saw her appearance clearly, she was really startled, and gasped, she originally thought she was just an ordinary old man, but she didn't expect that her whole face was covered with terrifying scars, extending to her neck, and her bare hands were not spared, the staggered scars and ugly scars made her look like a ghost coming out of the ground, and even her voice was mixed with a very harsh hoarse voice, if it weren't for her gentle speech, Bai Xiaoman almost ran away.

Qingyang Xiaocen and the others also seemed to be surprised, and all of them showed a look of fear on their faces.

This is all a feeling in my heart, but the old woman can perceive it, turned her head suddenly, and asked, "Why, seeing me, an old woman like a ghost, frightened, right?" ”

Qingyang Xiao Cen hurriedly gathered his mind and replied: "Don't blame the seniors, we are simple people, our minds are uncertain, and if we are offended, I hope the seniors will forgive me." ”

The old woman laughed, every sound was like a blunt knife sawing iron tools endlessly, it was really ugly, Bai Xiaoman snorted lightly, and looked at Qingyang Xiaocen with a tangled expression.

The old woman suddenly said loudly: "Aren't you disgusted by my terrible appearance? ”

Bai Xiaoman realized that she heard the sound of her sniffing, and quickly shook her head, seeing that her eyes were turned out, and her words and actions were all ear-first, and she seemed to be blind, so she spoke again: "Senior, I was a little scared, but listening to you speak calmly and gently, I don't feel scared." ”

The old woman laughed loudly, but because the voice was so unpleasant, everyone present was very tormented.

The laughter suddenly stopped, and the old woman threatened gloomily: "Don't think that if you say a few nice words, I will see a doctor for you, come to me, whether you can leave alive, and say two, but for the sake of you being friends of Qiuli, I will not be difficult for you today, and before sunrise tomorrow, go down the mountain immediately!" Stay a quarter of an hour longer, and I'll feed you to the snakes!" ”

Bai Xiaoman was really speechless, just now I saw her talking to Qiu Li, and she looked like a distressed elder, how could she say a few words to them, she became fierce and vicious, no wonder Qiu Li said that her master had a very strange temperament, so moody, it was really difficult to get along with, and it was a loss that Qiu Li could accompany her all these years.

Qingyang Xiaocen hugged his fists and said: "The seniors are angry, and they came here today, not intentionally disturbing the tranquility of the predecessors, but the inner son's body was burdened by the pain, and it was really difficult to get rid of it. ”

The old woman laughed twice: "Young man, you are quite capable, you have found out the whereabouts of our Sheng family, but you haven't heard of it, the Sheng family has disappeared from the rivers and lakes, and no longer treats anyone?" ”

Qiu Li suddenly said: "Master, you don't always teach your disciples that being a doctor is like recreating your parents, and if you don't do your best to save people, you will be called a doctor in vain, and heaven and earth will not tolerate it, they are all friends of your disciples, and please be kind to Master and save them." ”

As soon as Qiu Li exited, the old woman no longer spoke ill of her, but she did not let go.

Qingyang Xiaocen asked in every possible way, and Bai Xiaoman felt uncomfortable for a while, every time he saw the old woman's love to answer and ignore it, and Qingyang Xiaocen's low-lying appearance, Bai Xiaoman was full of heart, and he couldn't immediately pull him up and leave, not to be angry.

But when she showed a little bit of unbearable meaning, Qingyang Xiaocen would stop her with her eyes, with a bit of pleading.

Of course Bai Xiaoman understood what it meant, he was afraid that he would play tricks and say inappropriate words, destroying the situation in front of him that he had won so hard, although the Sheng family did not agree to save people, but under the pleading of Qiuli and Qingyang Xiaocen, he did not say the words of not saving in the end, it seems that there is still a chance to turn around.

Thinking of Qiu Li, when we met just now, she was as cold as ice, and her attitude was very cold, and even a little disgusted, Bai Xiaoman originally thought that she would definitely not help, even if she reluctantly agreed, it was just a love affair that she had once been familiar with Qingyang Xiaocen.

Bai Xiaoman even thought that she was deliberately making things difficult because of Yu Zifei's relationship with Qingyang Xiaocen, but she didn't expect that after meeting the Sheng family, the descendant of the medicine queen, Qiuli's attitude turned one hundred and eighty degrees, as if the person who embarrassed them just now did not exist at all, not only kneeling for them, but also kept saying good things, even with a little coquettishness.

Bai Xiaoman watched from the sidelines, guessing that Yaowang's mother-in-law should usually treat Qiuli well, and it is not too much to say that she is favored, although she is fierce to outsiders, she is very considerate and tolerant of Qiuli.

And Qiu Li, and Yu Zifei are really two people who are diametrically opposed, one is indifferent on the outside, but in fact, he is fiery and righteous on the inside, while Yu Zifei looks very kind and enthusiastic on the surface, but he is very alienated in his bones, keeping a certain distance from everyone, he uses the so-called enthusiasm to actually turn everyone away.

Under Qiu Li's pleading, the old woman finally relented: "Qiu Li, it's not that you don't know the situation of being a teacher, I can't see with my eyes now, my hands are very blunt, and I almost lose my ability to perceive, in this case, how to diagnose and treat difficult diseases in detail?" If a person accidentally makes a mistake and misses the life of others, how can he be worthy of the oath I made in front of my grandfather? ”

Seeing her say this, Qiu Li hurriedly said, "Master, she didn't have an incurable disease, but fell under a poisonous spell called the Blood Curse, so I came to ask Master to untie it for her." ”

The Medicine King's mother-in-law showed a confused look on her face, but on her disfigured face, every subtle expression changed, looking like a hideous ghost, Bai Xiaoman turned his head and didn't dare to look at her more.

"Blood curse? I really ran into it. Granny Medicine King repeated again.

Without waiting for Qiu to leave the mouth to agree, Qingyang Xiao Cen hurriedly added: "Yes, Neiko is a person from Yaoshan, and her predecessors are well-informed, can you save her from breaking the link of the blood curse, regain her freedom, and no longer suffer for others?" ”

The Medicine King's mother-in-law's face couldn't be seen good or bad, as if she was wearing a terrifying mask, and she said very abruptly: "Do you know why the descendants of the Medicine King have disappeared all these years? ”

Qingyang Xiaocen didn't understand the meaning of her words, so he replied honestly: "I don't know, I still hope that my seniors will advise." ”

The medicine king's mother-in-law sneered a few times: "What do I have to advise?" Of course, we can't afford to provoke the people of Cangguo, so we hid? ”

Qingyang Xiaocen and Bai Xiaoman were taken aback, and they didn't dare to ask casually, just waiting for her to continue.

"The ancestors of the Sheng clan back then, superb medical skills, but also involved in divination of celestial phenomena, is really a rare talent, by the courtesy of the Emperor of Cangguo, once saved the ancestors in times of crisis, in order to repay the kindness of the Emperor of Cangguo, for him to conclude a blood curse, do you know how much this vicious curse needs to pay to complete? The person who needs to make the contract riskes his life and sacrifices the lives of two innocent people, but in order to repay the kindness, the ancestors have to do things that hurt themselves and violate the standards of those who practice medicine, hoping to repay the kindness of the country. But what about after that? After a few generations, the royal family of Cangguo has forgotten what happened back then, only when the Sheng family is a chess piece, wantonly ravaging and calling, that's all, and later, do some unsightly deeds, and if you hesitate, you will be severely punished, and even worse, directly executed. ”

As she spoke, the mother-in-law of the medicine king said that a few lines of turbid tears flowed out of her eyes that had turned outward, and her whole face looked even more terrifying, but Bai Xiaoman looked at it, and there was a burst of sadness in her heart.

She knows the ruthlessness of the Lou clan best, and those who are useful to them will be gracious, and once they are useless, they will be ruthlessly thrown away, your so-called love is in vain, and when there is a problem with etiquette, anyone can be sacrificed.

Qiu Li walked over, took out a handkerchief, wiped her tears, and sobbed for a while, before the mother-in-law of the medicine king continued, "My ancestors wanted to escape, but they were chased and killed by the Knowles, of course, they were afraid that the unsightly things they had done would be revealed one day, so they killed us all, and they didn't remember the friendship of the year." ”

The more Yaowang's mother-in-law spoke, the more excited she became: "In order to survive, we had to run away desperately, and we didn't dare to show any clues, otherwise, if we were caught by them, we would either be killed on the spot, or we would be taken back and continue to fight for the tiger." I was lucky enough to escape, but if you look at my face, my whole person has been ruined, so I can only survive like this. ”

The more she spoke, the more excited she became, her voice raised a lot, and Bai Xiaoman listened to her already muddy voice, worried that if she continued to be so excited, she would shout badly.

"Now, let me hear about the Blood Curse again in my lifetime? I don't know if it is the blessing of the ancestors, so that I can avenge the Sheng family before I die, doesn't the emperor of Cangguo just want his children and grandchildren to live in peace? I won't let him get his wish! Why should you let others suffer from your own life? They're the damned ones! ”

"The petty ones will only use despicable means to achieve their goals, and sooner or later they will be punished! Knowles thinks no one knows about the dirty things he did? There is no impermeable wall in the world, in order to get the support of the medicine king, they actually sent someone to design us, the so-called timely rescue, is just a farce directed and acted by themselves! It's not because of the peculiarity of the Yaoshan people that they can do this kind of thing against the sky, forcibly merge the lives of the two generations together, let others die, and replace their descendants, such a conscienceless thing can be done, so many years, the Lou family is still standing, the sky is really eyeless! ”

Yaowang's mother-in-law seemed to be immersed in the past, her emotions became more and more excited, she kept raising the decibels, her voice was all shouting, and the words behind her could only be said almost intermittently, but her emotions became more and more excited, with great hatred.

Qiu Li had to speak out to dissuade him: "Master, don't get angry and hurt your body!" You have to take care, since Knowles is not a good person, there is no need for the master to be angry and hurt for this kind of scum, you have to take good care of your body for the sake of your disciples! ”

After listening to Qiuli's words, Yaowang's mother-in-law seemed to be much calmer, and she seemed to whisper: "Yes, if I die, my poor Qiuli will have to live alone again." ”

After saying that, he actually began to cry.

Bai Xiaoman and Qingyang Xiaocen looked at them at a loss, and Qiu Li waved his hand lightly, signaling them not to make a sound.

As a result, Yaowang's mother-in-law cried louder and louder, and finally simply hugged Qiuli and cried, and her breath was uneven.

Bai Xiaoman was startled, looked at Qingyang Xiaocen, and asked in a low voice: "Did we stimulate her old man and make her so sad." ”

Qingyang Xiaocen said to her in a secret voice: "She has been disfigured for many years, she must be jealous in her heart, and her temperament has changed greatly, but she has no ability to take revenge, so she has been suppressed for so long, and now when she mentions it, she will lose control of her emotions, don't worry." ”

After crying for a long time, the mother-in-law of the medicine king stopped crying, and she kept sobbing, so she raised her head and said viciously: "I want to make the descendants of the Knowles pay the price, and it is only natural for the father and son to pay the debt!" ”

When Qingyang Xiaocen heard this, he was overjoyed: "So, the seniors are willing to treat Neiko?" (To be continued.) )
