Chapter 138: Python Infested
After a tiring journey, Qingyang Xiaocen and Bai Xiaoman decided to rest for one night and visit the Queen of Medicine early the next morning. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Originally, I was worried that it would sound more troublesome, but I didn't expect that Qingyang Xiaocen had already arranged it, and he only needed to go over, Bai Xiaoman asked happily: "Didn't you tell me at the beginning, but you just visited the Queen of Medicine near Diancheng, and you don't know the specific location?" When was it determined? Don't tell me a word. β
Qingyang Xiaocen couldn't laugh a little: "I really didn't find out the specific news, it was the building that told me." β
Bai Xiaoman smiled at all.
"Didn't he stop us that day? Later, when Jing Zhuo was driving, he found a bag next to the horsewhip, and there was a note in it, on which the position and title of the queen of medicine were clearly written. β
Qingyang Xiaocen slowly told her, and the more Bai Xiaoman listened, the more suspicious he became: "Why does the building want to help us?" Doesn't he know what I'm going for? It's not good for him. Aren't you worried that he is giving false clues in order to get us into a trap? β
Qingyang Xiaocen soothed: "What kind of trap does he have?" If he wants to catch us, or if he wants to kill us, he has a chance, so why bother? β
Bai Xiaoman thought about it, too, and was even more puzzled in his heart: "Then what is he trying to do?" β
Qingyang Xiaocen is more optimistic: "Perhaps, he is out of guilt for you, so he wants to help you." β
Bai Xiaoman shook his head coldly: "You don't know him, no, it may be true that he feels guilty about me, but it is about his life, he can't take this risk because of such a little guilt." Maybe he was just idle, deliberately giving us false news and making us busy in vain. β
Qingyang Xiaocen shook his head wordlessly: "He won't be able to, right?" β
Bai Xiaoman thought quietly: "As for him, Lou Lou is an arrogant and proud person to put it bluntly, and at the same time he is very naΓ―ve, he will repay such a person, he does not allow anyone's betrayal, maybe it has something to do with his growth environment, but people live in the world, who doesn't have a bad heart, is it a legitimate reason for us to become bad when we encounter some accidents?" β
Qingyang Xiao Cen smiled lightly: "Do you think everyone is like you, thinking like this?" β
Bai Xiaoman smiled bitterly, suddenly thought of the point, and said: "Of course he gave us the clue with confidence, because the thing to unlock the blood curse is not at all whether to find the descendants of the Medicine King, but to find a pair of people who truly love each other, otherwise, even if the Medicine King's medical skills are top, there will be no skills." β
Qingyang Xiaocen's face sank, yes, he almost forgot about this condition, and he just wanted to find the queen of medicine.
"It's easy to get priceless treasures, and it's rare to have a lover. Where can I go to find a lover who will help me until I die? The key is to damage the body, so when you think about it, it's no wonder that the blood curse is difficult to solve, because there are too many variables. β
Qingyang Xiaocen touched her head: "Don't be afraid, there is always a price for everything, as long as we give enough money, we are not afraid that people will not be willing to help." β
Bai Xiaoman sneered, pretending to denounce him: "Listen, this is a businessman's true character, if only everything could be solved with money." β
"But there are few things in the world that can't be solved with money."
Bai Xiaoman agreed: "I didn't mean to disparage you, I don't know how high I am, and I also eat fireworks in the world, money is a good thing." β
Qingyang Xiaocen encouraged her: "Since you have come to this point, you must always try, if you are lucky, you will definitely succeed." β
Bai Xiaoman smiled: "You are encouraging me, what you say is not convincing at all, people, if you fall into the fight for luck, I really don't know whether to be happy or sad." β
Qingyang Xiaocen got up, picked up the things he was carrying, and said, "Don't think about it so much, let's go." β
According to the clues left by the building, several people found a pharmacy in the westernmost part of Diancheng, went in and asked, Doctor Sheng was not there, the guy looked at them suspiciously, and said, "There is no Doctor Sheng here." β
Qingyang Xiaocen asked again: "I have heard for a long time that there is a very famous doctor in Dian City, who has excellent medical skills and a benevolent heart, is it here?"
The guy said, "Oh, you're talking about Dr. Qiu, right?" He will not be in the clinic today. β
Qingyang Xiaocen was suspicious in his heart, but still asked, "Doctor Qiu?" Could it be that the building gave the wrong message? So when will he come to the church? β
The guy shook his head: "This little one is not clear, Dr. Qiu will come over from time to time, but it is not fixed, sometimes he comes every day, sometimes he doesn't see him for several days, and at most he doesn't come for half a month." β
Qingyang Xiaocen was surprised: "Doctor Qiu's way of practicing medicine is really special. β
The guy said honestly: "Dr. Qiu doesn't ask for consultation with us, and he doesn't charge any fees, he occasionally borrows us here for consultation, only charges the consultation fee, he doesn't care about the medicine, he has excellent medical skills, we can't ask for it, how can we expect him to come to the clinic every day?" β
Qingyang Xiaocen nodded, and said in his heart, this Doctor Qiu is really different from others, he doesn't value money, and he doesn't see the end of the dragon, is it possible that the world's masters act so differently?
Hearing this, Bai Xiaoman smiled and muttered: "This Doctor Qiu is really a fairy fart!" β
"What?"
"Extraordinary!" noticed that Qingyang Xiaocen was glaring at him, and continued: "I'm praising him, after the break, not scolding, don't stare at me." β
Qingyang Xiaocen turned around and continued to inquire about Dr. Qiu's news with the buddy, and the guy couldn't say a specific matter, Fang Jingzhuo stepped forward and stuffed a silver ingot in his hand, and the guy still showed a look of embarrassment: "The little one really doesn't know where Dr. Qiu's family lives, he has never dealt with others, and his whereabouts are really mysterious." β
Fang Jingzhuo wanted to stuff him with silver again, and the guy hurriedly refused: "Don't don't, the little one only knows one thing, that is, every time Dr. Qiu leaves, he goes out of the city from the West Gate, some people say that he seems to have gone up to Qiongshan when he sees her, but he just says that it seems to be, and he is not sure, because Qiongshan is high and dangerous, and few people go up." β
After saying that, the guy was about to return the silver, but Qingyang Xiaocen blocked his hand: "Take it, a little heart, thank you very much." β
Qingyang Xiaocen pulled Bai Xiaoman and left the pharmacy together, Fang Jingzhuo followed, and asked, "Sir, what should I do next?" β
Qingyang Xiaocen pointed to Qiongshan Mountain towering into the sky in the distance: "Go to Qiongshan." β
Fang Jingzhuo agreed, and Qingyang Xiaocen instructed him: "Go and call Mueller, bring some warm clothes and food, and leave Mingsheng and Qiuxiang at the inn, and my wife and I are waiting for you at the West City Gate." β
Fang Jingzhuo took the order and left, Bai Xiaoman looked in the direction he walked away, with a solemn expression: "Qingyang, did you expect this trip to be very dangerous, so you want to take Muller?" β
Qingyang Xiao Cen clenched her hand: "When you go to a place like the barren mountains and wilderness, it's always okay to be prepared." β
His voice was firm, his tone was steady, his eyes were soft, and Bai Xiaoman smiled knowingly: "Ordinary people say that only when you encounter things can you see a man's responsibility, Qingyang, along the way, I feel more and more that I have married you, and I have really picked up a treasure." β
Qingyang Xiaocen seemed to be a little unaccustomed, his cheeks turned suspiciously red, and then he pretended to be chic: "Of course, I found out that you are really stupid." β
Bai Xiaoman was not annoyed, the two got into the carriage, Bai Xiaoman went inside, Qingyang Xiaocen drove to the West City Gate by himself, stopped at the stone pier outside the city gate, and waited for Fang Jingzhuo and Mueller.
There was about two incense sticks, the two of them rode a tall horse to come, as soon as they arrived at the place, Fang Jingzhuo immediately jumped down, took the whip from Qingyang Xiaocen's hand, and sat in the position of driving the car, Qingyang Xiaocen opened the car door and sat inside, and Muller rode a horse to follow behind the carriage.
At the foot of the mountain, Fang Jingzhuo stopped the car and jumped down to report the situation: "Sir, madam, the mountain road is very steep, and the car and horse can't go up, so the way up the mountain can only be on foot." β
Qingyang Xiaocen and Bai Xiaoman pushed the car door and got out of the car, and Muller also turned over and dismounted, carrying the reins of the horse in his hand.
The sun was very good in the middle of the afternoon, Qingyang Xiaocen looked up at the top of Qiongshan Mountain with the shade of the back of his hand, turned his head and asked Bai Xiaoman: "It seems that we are going to climb today, how about it?" β
Bai Xiaoman was a little sad and worried: "My least favorite sport is mountain climbing, but at this time, saying this kind of thing is going to be struck by lightning, right?" It's all for me, you didn't say anything, if I complain again, it won't be like words, let's go, I'm also a martial arts practitioner, and this little difficulty won't bother me. β
Qingyang Xiaocen touched her head, turned to Mu Ler and Fang Jingzhuo and said, "Let's go, bring the necessary things, and the rest, stay here for the time being." β
Bai Xiaoman looked around, deserted, and couldn't help but ask worriedly: "No one is watching, will it be unsafe for the carriage and horses to be placed here?" β
Qingyang Xiaocen nodded: "It's definitely not safe." β
Bai Xiaoman had to ask again, but when he saw him smiling, he didn't say anything.
"I noticed just now, through this forest, there are a few hunters, we can temporarily leave the carriage with them, and wait until we go down the mountain to get it, and give some silver, it is not difficult."
Bai Xiaoman looked in the direction he was pointing and asked in disbelief, "Why didn't I notice it?" Where are the people, but also the hunters? Did you step on it in advance? β
Qingyang Xiaocen proudly showed off: "I'm not like you, you were patronizing and nervous just now, how can you still pay attention to the situation next to you?" The style of the house they built, as well as the deerskins, wolf skins, and fox skins hanging on the outside, don't they mean that they are hunters? Besides, if you don't make a living by hunting, why live in isolation and live at the foot of Qiongshan, next to this dense forest? β
Bai Xiaoman smacked his lips: "Count you a little smart." β
Qingyang Xiaocen scraped her nose with his right index finger: "Did you know that your husband is smart and capable?" β
Bai Xiaoman said again: "Why do I think this Qiongshan is unfathomable and has bad intentions towards me? You say, the carts and horses won't wait for the day when we go down the mountain, right? β
Qingyang Xiao Cen scolded: "Crow's mouth! When did you still say such unlucky words! β
Bai Xiaoman shook his wrist and no longer hidden: "I'm afraid." β
Qingyang Xiaocen stepped forward, held her hand, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, there is me." β
Bai Xiaoman can't remember how many times he has heard Qingyang Xiaocen say this, as if since marrying him, no matter where she goes, Qingyang Xiaocen is her standard, although she can't see the danger of the future, but with this sentence in her ears, Bai Xiaoman is still a lot more relieved.
Finally embarked on the journey of mountaineering, began this road, the mountain is not too steep, can clearly see the road out of the people, after about half an hour, the road gradually becomes less obvious, can only be vaguely recognized, one of them can be called the road path, the grass is not so dense, the rest of the surroundings are uninhabited primitive state.
Fang Jingzhuo walked in the front, Qingyang Xiaocen followed behind, followed by Bai Xiaoman, and Mueller Finally, the four of them kept a serial line and walked up.
For Bai Xiaoman, physical strength is not the biggest challenge, she is in good health, and she has a martial arts body, although she can't catch up with Muller, but it is not difficult, but the primitive mountains and wilderness are indispensable for snakes and insects, and from time to time she hears a wolf howling and a bear roaring, which really scares her heart.
Bai Xiaoman muttered in a low voice: "Qingyang, you said that we wouldn't have found no one and were taken away by wolves, right?" β
Qingyang Xiaocen glanced at her unceremoniously: "If you don't talk nonsense, I'll thank God, besides, where are you more fragrant than others, and the wolf has to take you away thanklessly?" β
Bai Xiaoman was so angry that he twisted his arm hard, but then his heart relaxed a little.
"Ah!!h
As soon as he turned his face, Bai Xiaoman screamed in fright, Mueller and Fang Jingzhuo drew their swords at the same time, and waited for it, Qingyang Xiaocen turned around and held her in his arms as soon as he heard it, and asked in a low voice: "What happened?" β
Bai Xiaoman was so frightened that he couldn't move his legs, pointed not far away, and his voice trembled: "Snake, python." β
The three of them looked at the same time, and they all held their breath for an instant, Bai Xiaoman was scared like this, not for no reason, if it was the kind of small snake in the grass on weekdays, they would not be afraid, but a few meters away from them, it was really a dark python as thick as an adult's arm, and its bean-sized eyes were staring at them tightly, although they did not move, they maintained a state of attack at any time.
Bai Xiaoman was so frightened, more of a madman, she used a secret voice to cross to Mueller and Qingyang Xiaocen, and asked them, "Can we run back?" β
Mueller flatly denied: "No, the python seems to be slow, once the attack starts to move very quickly, we are so close to it, we will definitely not be able to dodge." β
"Then it's okay to rush up, right? Use light work. β
Qingyang Xiao Cen quietly rolled his eyes to look at the surrounding terrain, and vetoed again: "There is no place above that borrows strength from trees, we can only jump a distance with light skills, and the python will definitely follow up and attack quickly, I don't know if there are other fierce beasts nearby, in case we avoid the python, such a big movement and then alarm something else, it will be even more dangerous, and Jing Zhuo is not good at light skills, even if a few of us can get out of danger, he can't." β
Mueller volunteered: "I can take him with me." β
After speaking, he vetoed it without waiting for others to speak, and his voice was a little depressed: "I'm too far away from him to reach it, and the light skills of the two of you are only enough to protect yourself." β
Facing the python that was eyeing the tiger, several people were in a dilemma for a while. (To be continued.) )
