Chapter 13: The Scourge of Safflower
"Doctor, doctor, I want to get medicine! Hurry! Hurry!"
Suddenly, several men broke in, and one of the leaders shouted, slapped the prescription on the table, and urged the guys.
There were six people who came, equipped with blades and light armor, and there were many cracks on the armor, all of them were warriors, and it seemed that they had just gone through a fierce battle, and there were blood stains on their bodies. One of them was supported by two people, his right leg was seriously injured, black blood was flowing, and his lips were also black.
The little assistant didn't delay when he heard this, picked up the prescription and looked at it, frowned when he was about to grab the medicine, and said, "I'm sorry, we don't have this safflower in stock." "Safflower is an essential medicinal material for detoxification, but it just so happens that the last half of the tael has been bought by Tianlan and them, and the little assistant can only mourn in his heart for this poisoner.
The man shouted, "It's out of stock, what's going on?" My brother is dying......! Huh, isn't this a safflower? You dare to lie to me?!
The little assistant hurriedly said: "No, no, the last half of the saffron has been sold to that son." As he spoke, he pointed to Tianlan.
When the man heard this, he immediately walked up to Tianlan and said eagerly: "This son, please give us the red flower." I am Wu Gong, a mercenary of the Golden Lion Mercenary Group, and I will be rewarded by your great kindness in the future!"
Tianlan sat down quietly, unmoved. If there is no emergency situation to buy safflower, it will be fine, but he wants this half of the saffron is needed to save people and detoxify, and it cannot be delayed, and it is not appropriate for them to go to other pharmacies to show up many times in such a situation. And......
He glanced at the poisoned mercenary and said, "And this person has been poisoned into the bone marrow, and it is difficult to heal." I advise you not to waste your efforts. If you cut off his wounded leg right now, maybe he'll live a few more hours. ”
Wu Gong shouted: "No, if a mercenary cuts off his leg, how will he live in the future? I want to help him detoxify! Will you let the saffron come out?!" As he spoke, his hand had already pressed on the hilt of the sword, and he had the intention of doing it if he didn't agree with him. They had already passed through many pharmacies and asked some doctors, and they all advised them to cut off their injured legs, and maybe they could be treated. But Wu Gong didn't listen, believing that cutting off the mercenary's leg was equivalent to cutting off his life, which allowed the toxin to spread and become incurable.
Tianlan glanced at him lightly. This poisoned person has been poisoned deeply, and ordinary doctors really can't treat it, but Tianlan can save it, although it takes a lot of effort. It's just that this Wu Gong's attitude is like this, but it completely ruined his brother's life.
The old man touched his beard and said, "This son is right, your brother and old man can't be cured, and if you cut off his leg now, the old man can't save him, no matter how much red flowers you have, it's useless." You, alas, should hurry up and help him with the aftermath. ”
Wu Gong was stunned at that time. Another mercenary said sadly: "Big brother, second brother, he's dying...... If we had listened to the doctor earlier and cut off his right leg, it might have been ......."
"Shut up!" Wu Gong drew his sword angrily, "I don't believe it, they are all lies!"
Ye Yi stepped forward, held the iron sword in his hand, blocked in front of Wu Gong, and said, "You are really troublesome, you can't be saved, why are you pestering? He was ready in his heart, ready to face Wu Gong at any time. Tianlan stood up, pressed Ye Yi's shoulder with his hand, shook his head and said, "You shouldn't use your aura now, let me come." Only then did Ye Yi remember that he himself had been poisoned, and he bought safflower for him, so he reluctantly took half a step back.
Seeing this, Xiaotang hurriedly said: "Son, you don't need it, I'll deal with him!"
Wu Gong's eyes were red, just when everyone thought that he would go crazy and rush up desperately, he suddenly knelt down and said, "Doctor, please, save my brother! I have gone through 20 years of ups and downs with my brother, although I am not related by blood, but I am better than my own brother." I can't let him die! Please! Save him! Save him!"
Tianlan and the old man both shook their heads in their hearts, if Wu Gong really cared about his brother's life, he would have listened to the doctor's words and cut off his injured leg, what is the use of crying now? At least Tianlan will not change his mind because of this.
Seeing that he was pitiful, Ye Yi couldn't help but feel some sympathy in his heart, and whispered to Tianlan: "Tianlan, he's so pitiful, aren't we ......" He usually grinned, but in fact, he was very easy to be soft-hearted, this was his kind side.
Tianlan turned his head and looked at him coldly, and said, "Do you want to die of poison?"
With one sentence, Ye Yika couldn't speak, so he had to retreat.
"Big ...... Big brother ......" The poisoned mercenary raised his head and said with difficulty. Wu Gong was stunned for a moment, and immediately rushed over, holding his hand, tears were in his eyes, and said, "Second brother, don't worry, I will definitely help you detoxify." ”
"No...... Eldest brother...... Never mind...... You...... Take care...... "The toxin had completely destroyed his internal organs, and finally spit out a few words, and he closed his eyes forever, leaving only Wu Gong to cry bitterly.
Tianlan was unmoved, whether Wu Gong wept for his brother's death, or for the loss of a thug, who knows? Ye Yi secretly wiped the corners of his eyes, and there was a little sadness in his heart.
Wu Gong finally glanced at Tianlan hatefully, as if he had remembered the hatred on him, and then led people away in a hurry.
Xiao Tang said dissatisfiedly: "What kind of eyes did that man look at at the end? It was as if we had killed his brother, it was ridiculous! He might not be able to trouble us in the future, he should have taught him a good lesson just now, and let him go like this, what a loss! ”
Tianlan put away the medicine, paid a gold coin, and said, "Okay, don't worry about this kind of thing, let's go back." ”
As soon as he went out, Ye Yi saw that Tianlan was still indifferent, and whispered: "Tianlan, why are you so cold-blooded? ”
Tianlan smiled when she heard this: "Speaking of tears, I seem to have seen someone with wet eyes just now. ”
Ye Yi's face turned red and defended: "I didn't cry!
Xiaotang heard it clearly, and said with a smile: "Don't fight yourself! Hehe, the son didn't name him!
"Hmph, ignore you!" Ye Yi finished speaking and ran back to the abandoned house first.
When he ran away, Xiaotang's expression suddenly became gloomy, holding Tianlan's arm, leaning his head slightly on his shoulder, and said: "Childe, just like the old doctor said, you have to live well, Xiaotang can't live without you......"
Tianlan stroked her pretty face with her hand and said gently: "Silly girl, what are you talking about? Without me, you would have a wonderful life. ”
When Xiaotang heard this, his eyes were red, and he was about to shed tears.
