Chapter 50: The Bloody Case Caused by Ginseng
When he arrived outside the Taoist temple, Youli shouted, "Master, I'm back." "But no one paid attention to her, it should not be there, the house with the statue of a nameless real person is not locked all the year round, the back two houses are locked, there is a reason to have the key to the house where the master lives for a long time, open the door and enter the house, you find that there are bloody clothes and gauze thrown on the ground.
The clothes are old-fashioned, I didn't want to add a piece of clothing if I had an ideal, I took a pot of wine, brought some fried beans, short knives, lighters and other necessities and went out to the mountains to find them.
But she can only roughly sense the master's position, and the old Taoist is so profound that she can sense his position because of the master-apprentice relationship, and it is impossible for ordinary people to calculate the position of the old Tao.
It is more difficult to walk into the deep mountain road, it can be said that there is no road at all, and there are places where you can step on it directly to your chest.
When she was thirsty, she ate two mouthfuls of snow, chewed some beans when she was hungry, and there was little prey in winter, and besides, she didn't have time to waste, so she didn't find her master when it got dark.
Picked up a snow nest, cut some branches, took some birch bark from the bag as a combustion, Youli finally felt a trace of warmth, put the snow in an iron box and heated it to make some hot water to drink, Youli felt Xiaoqing poke her head out of her collar softly, "You said that you don't hibernate a snake and rely on me all day long, and you have been confused and annoying." β
Xiaoqing went back into the clothes as if she hadn't heard anything, and this winter it stayed in the mezzanine of the clothes, saying that it was hibernation and always came out to let out the wind, and that it was still in a daze if it didn't hibernate.
After drinking a few sips of wine, he put out the fire and sealed the hole of the snow nest with snow, leaving only a ventilation hole, and the snow nest that had been roasted by the fire was still very strong and windproof. Sprinkled some of the master's medicine powder to expel the beast and fell asleep, climbing the mountain in winter was too exhausting, she had to sleep well, she felt that she should be able to find the master tomorrow.
Youli wears a very thick dress, covers his head and face very tightly when he sleeps, leaving only the nose to be exposed for ventilation, this sleep is okay, but when he woke up the next day, his hands and feet were also wooden, he ate some beans and drank a few sips of wine to slow down and move on.
After walking a long way, she smelled the smell of blood and the smell of fish, the smell of blood should be emitted by the wolves, and the smell of blood is not the smell of human blood.
The feeling is becoming more and more obvious as she walks, the master should be not far away, and her vague sense of such a close distance can no longer be located, so she can only rely on her own senses to find someone.
Youli shouted in a very low voice, "Master, Master, where are you ......." "She didn't dare to turn up the volume, because if she was too loud, it wouldn't necessarily attract anything.
"Poof......." Suddenly, a snow bag not far away stretched out a human hand.
Normal people should generally be paralyzed with fright when they see this scene, but Hu Youli's first reaction is to rush over, because she knows this hand, isn't it her master's.
When she dug out Lao Dao, she found that Lao Dao's face was bruised, obviously poisoned, "Master, what's going on." β
Lao Dao opened his mouth hard and said...... Ginseng... Eat....... Only then did you find out that Lao Dao was still holding a ginseng in his hand, but the ginseng was already frozen, so he could only take the ginseng in his mouth and melt it before biting it down and feeding it to Lao Dao.
Half a ginseng went down to Lao Dao's complexion a lot better, but he felt panicked, thinking about how many years this person's body has such a strong medicinal power, and fed Lao Dao a few mouthfuls to see that Lao Dao almost suppressed the poison, and then put a five-hearted posture for Lao Dao, she herself meditated and breathed up, and if she didn't refine the medicinal power, it was estimated that she would have a nosebleed immediately.
When Youli opened his eyes for refining the medicinal power, Lao Dao also eased up: "Master, what's the matter with you?" β
Lao Dao didn't speak, but pointed to the reasonable wine jug, "Give me a sip of wine to warm up." β
After taking a sip of wine, he said slowly, "The dark disease left by fighting with people in the early years, there is a Gu worm in my body, and I have been suppressing it, but recently it has become more and more dishonest. β
"Gu worms?"
"Just think it's a poisonous bug."
"Gu worms can poison you, can't let you be injured, right?"
Lao Dao suddenly blushed, "Didn't I feel like I was about to be unable to suppress it, so I thought about going up the mountain to find some fierce medicine, and if I wanted to say that my fate should not be broken, I really found an old ginseng that was old." β
"And then?"
"Then I found out that there was another person next to this ginseng, and the two of us could be said to have developed that ginseng together, you said it was a coincidence."
"What a coincidence, and then you got into a fight with someone, didn't you?"
"But no, that kid doesn't know how to respect the old and love the young, I said that one and a half can't do it, I have to educate him."
Youli looked at Lao Dao's evasive gaze and smiled: "Is it not that you have not been educated by others, but let others be educated?" β
"Hey, old man, it's useless, I haven't robbed anyone, but the more I think about it when I go back, the more unpleasant it becomes, and I can't suppress this Gu worm, so I went up the mountain again, didn't I steal this ginseng, but before I went down the mountain, this Gu worm broke through my suppression, and you will know what happened after that."
As soon as you heard that something was stolen, she jumped up and ran away, "Steal?" Oh my God, is the lost owner still around, hurry up and run, you can't beat me, isn't it more. β
But it seemed to be too late, and it seemed reasonable to feel that something was shooting from behind, but fortunately she reacted quickly, and a dagger flew past the side of her face. Before she could stabilize her body, she was kicked on the shoulder, which caused her to slide out directly on her side and hit her waist against the tree.
Lao Dao's body was weak, and after a few moves, he was caught, and then the man held a dagger against Lao Dao's neck, "Hand over the ginseng, I will spare your life." β
Hu Youli felt that this person's speech was a little familiar, but in this winter, in the deep mountains, people wore more tightly than the other, only showing a pair of eyes, and they couldn't see what they looked like, and they also covered their mouths, and their voices were not very clear, "The ginseng is here, you let me go, master, I will give you the ginseng." β
"Give me the ginseng first."
This dialogue is very clichΓ©, but it is necessary for this scene, and everyone is worried that the other party will lie to them and not put the chips first.
How dare you give him the ginseng, the ginseng is half eaten, what if this person kills her master in anger. She could only stall for time first.
"I gave you ginseng, what if you don't let it go."
"I don't have the patience to play with you here, I'll count to three, if you don't give me ginseng, I'll kill someone."
β1β¦β¦ 2β¦β¦β
Either Jiang is still old and spicy, when the number of that person reached two, the plot took a big turn, Lao Dao suddenly grabbed the man's wrist, and his head rotated one hundred and eighty degrees, of course, his head could not be turned one hundred and eighty degrees, his body also turned, and a mouthful of black blood sprayed in the face of the man.
Youli's first reaction was really disgusting, and then his second reaction was to help Lao Dao over.
Seeing that the man was half-kneeling on the ground, he couldn't help but ask, "Master, what have you done to him?" It's not going to disgust him. β
"What do you mean to disgust him, I've been holding back my poisonous blood for a long time, just waiting for him to come."
The man clutched his stomach in pain, gasping for breath, and then turned around and ran away, and Youli and Master did not chase him.
"Master, he's not going to die, is he?"
"How do I know? This Gu worm was given to me by someone else back then, and I can't understand it when I study it. β
"You won."
