Chapter 6 Treatment
"I have been walking all year round, and I know very well the cries of the orcs, and I am fairly certain that the howls of the full moon night were made by the orcs. It's just that, according to the people, this orc only appears on the night of the full moon, which is very strange. I also captured one or two orcs alive in my early years, and wanted to study their habits, so I knew very well that the behavior of orcs would never be bothered by time, and they could go berserk at any time, anywhere, at will. ”
When Zuo Qiyang said this, he looked at Ah Brown meaningfully.
Ah Zi also guessed the identity of Ah Brown orcs from the cry of the full moon night, but orcs don't go crazy at a fixed time, she doesn't know.
If what Zuo Qiyang said is true, that means that Ah Brown and other orcs are different?
"Actually, I just had a guess in my heart at the time, and I wasn't sure. It wasn't until I came to the river mountain and saw this little brother that I finally confirmed my conjecture. ”
When Zuo Qiyang said this, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and it was difficult to hide his smug look.
"You're an orc, aren't you?"
Orcs?
It was the first time Ah Zi had heard this kind of statement, so he could only look at Ah Brown beside him suspiciously, but he unexpectedly cringed a little, and his hand unconsciously put on the chain around his neck.
"I would venture to guess that your father is an orc, but your mother is just an ordinary human, is that so?" Zuo Qiyang saw that Ah Brown didn't speak, and added.
Ah Brown still refused to speak, but judging from his expression, Zuo Qiyang's guess was mostly right.
"You have both human and orc blood in you, and it's humanity that prevails in normal times, so you can live as a human, just look stronger. But on the night of the full moon, the beastly nature in your body will begin to surge, overshadowing your humanity, and at this time, you will be forced to endure a painful process of transformation. The howl we heard earlier was the one you uttered because of the extreme pain in the process of transformation, right? ”
When Zuo Qiyang said this, he stopped and stared at Ah Brown's eyes tightly.
Ah Brown still didn't speak, just lowered his eyes.
Hearing this, Ah Zi couldn't hold back any longer, she mustered up the courage to interject: "You said you could help with the treatment, right?" Can you help him end his current pain? ”
Zuo Qiyang looked at Ah Zi, smiled and nodded.
"I have a set of acupuncture techniques, which have been developed for orcs over the years, which can suppress animal nature. Even the orcs can be successfully controlled by me, this little brother is only a half-orc, I believe that it is not a problem to control the bestiality in his body. ”
Hearing Zuo Qiyang say this, Ah Zi almost jumped up happily.
So, in the future, Ah Brown will never be in pain again? I won't have a few days a month to be scared?
"It's just ......" Zuo Qiyang suddenly reached out and rubbed his delicate chin, spitting out.
"What's wrong?" Ah Zi stared at Zuo Qiyang tightly like a child who had just tasted the sweetness and was robbed of his candy.
"It's just that it's easy to suppress this beast, but it's very difficult to get rid of it completely. I can perform acupuncture for him every month before the night of the full moon to suppress the animality in his body, but I am not sure how long it will take to completely eradicate it. It is possible to have as little as three or five years, or as many as decades. ”
Decades, for Ah Zi, who is not yet ten years old, is too terrible time limit, hearing this, she only felt dry mouth and couldn't speak.
"So, I hope that this little brother can go back with me, follow me, and I can arrange ...... for you"
Halfway through Zuo Qiyang's words, Ah Brown couldn't listen anymore, and raised his gun to attack him.
Zuo Qiyang quickly turned sideways, and the spear just swept past his face, bringing a breeze that blew the hair on his sideburns.
Seeing him dodge, Ah Brown quickly withdrew his spear, re-aimed, and stabbed him again.
Zuo Qiyang was forced to withdraw from the temple, but he still kept persuading him.
"I really just want to help you, if you go back with me, I can give you a much better life than now, and keep you food and clothing worry-free."
"No, you don't! Get out of our home! ”
In the end, Zuo Qiyang was forced to jump on the wall outside the courtyard, in the face of Ah Brown's stubbornness, he was very patient, at this moment he stood on a high place, took out a stick-like thing from his body, and said: "This is a signal flare, if you think it clearly, light it, as long as I am still in Lixin City, I will definitely come to help you." ”
With that, he dropped the flare, turned and leaped, disappearing from the sight of the two.
Seeing him leave, Ah Brown quickly stepped forward, picked up the flare and threw it outside.
Ah Zi wanted to stop him, but in the end he didn't say anything.
She hoped that Ah Brown could get rid of the pain she was experiencing, but she couldn't afford him to leave her like this. Eventually, she gritted her teeth and swallowed back the words that came to her lips.
On the other side, Zuo Qiyang walked down the mountain alone, and a young man dressed in gray who had been waiting at the foot of the mountain stepped forward and saluted him.
Zuo Qiyang nodded slightly, took out a paper bag, and handed it to the man in gray.
"Keep an eye on the temple people's every move and be careful not to be discovered. Look for an opportunity to put this in their water source. ”
Zuo Qiyang lost all the cordial attitude he had when he talked to Ah Brown and Ah Zi just now, and instead said in an unusually cold tone.
The man in gray took the paper bag, glanced at it, was shocked, and suddenly looked up at Zuo Qiyang and said, "My lord, this heart powder...... If you make a slight mistake, it may cause a catastrophe. ”
"I'm in my own hands, I'll be fine." Zuo Qiyang said calmly, "I was also forced to be helpless, King Xin will return to Beijing soon, if you don't use some means to force him to comply, when we leave this small city, there will be no chance." ”
"With all due respect," said the man in gray, still bowing down, "This half-orc, although rare, is it really worth the risk you take?" The emperor has already ordered to stop all orc research work, and if you are like this now, if you are stabbed out, I am afraid that you will ......"
"The emperor's order is for the sake of the safety of the people, but we obey King Xin, since King Xin still intends to win over the orc race, we can't give up any opportunity."
"Yes!" At this point, the man in gray did not dare to say more.
Zuo Qiyang suddenly looked into the distance, let out a long sigh of relief, then shook his head and laughed.
The man in gray looked strange and asked, "My lord, what's on your mind?" ”
"Guess what I just went to that temple and encountered?" Zuo Qiyang said, unable to hide the excited look in his eyes, "I originally went to the stubborn stone, but I didn't expect to find a beautiful jade!" ”
"Forgive my subordinates for being stupid, I don't know what the beautiful jade in the mouths of adults is?"
"A little witch!"
