Chapter 41 Fighting Poison with Poison
"Caiyin, I knew you would have a way. Yang Ming was overjoyed, as the young man said, from the moment he saw Cai Yin, he believed that Cai Yin would definitely have a way to save Wu Jian.
"But, didn't Elder Weng just say that even immortals have no skills to return to heaven, you can do it as a medicine boy?" Wu Jian asked in disbelief, but at this time his gaze at Cai Yin was a little different, from the first time he saw her, Wu Jian felt that this girl was different, and it was by no means as simple as a little medicine boy.
"Uh...... I didn't look carefully just now, but now I look at it again, there is indeed a way......" After Wu Jian asked, Weng Lao hurriedly changed his words and said, "As for this method, Cai Yin, do you have any suggestions?"
Cai Yin smiled knowingly, and then pretended to be reminded, and said: "Grandpa Weng, have you forgotten? Didn't you tell me about the pharmacology of fighting poison with poison before, Uncle Wu took the reincarnation, and the blood orchid was also affected by the medicinal properties of the rejuvenation, the same reason, if Uncle Wu is allowed to take a strong poison, the poison will also act on the blood orchid, and after poisoning the blood orchid, let Uncle Wu take the antidote." ”
Cai Yin's explanation was very simple, and after Yang Ming heard it, he slapped his palm and said happily: "I see, so the uncle will be saved." ”
Theory is theory, implementation is another matter, Weng Lao shook his head, his face was embarrassed, and said: "Yang Ming, don't be happy too early, although the truth of fighting poison with poison is simple, but Xueshenglan is a high-level poison of the six-flavor level, and the poison that can poison the blood-born orchid must be at least the seven-flavor level, where can we find such a high-level poison?"
"I can't find it, we can refine it ourselves. Cai Yin said very naturally, as if it was a simple thing that everyone could think of.
But such casual words really shocked Elder Weng, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, "Cai Yin, this is a seven-flavor level poison, how can it be ......?"
"It's a bit difficult, but it's not impossible, and the key is to find the right herbs. Cai Yin said seriously.
"Since Caiyin said it, then it's no problem. Yang Ming stood behind Cai Yin and said confidently. The young man's trusting gaze made the girl's cheeks crimson, and Cai Yin didn't say anything more, just nodded.
Since Cai Yin nodded, Weng Lao could only pretend to be calm and comfort Wu Jian: "Well, that's right, it's just a seven-flavor level poison, as long as I go back to study and study, I can refine it in a few days." ”
Weng Lao's voice trembled slightly, this is the biggest thing he has ever said in his life, Weng Lao has studied pharmacy all his life, and his greatest achievement is to refine the five-flavor level elixir, and refine the seven-flavor level poison in a few days, this is what he didn't even dare to dream of.
Wu Jian nodded and said, "It seems that my life should not be extinguished, so please leave it to you." ”
Wu Jian said this, but his last gaze fell on Cai Yin.
Cai Yin ducked her head and hid her face deep under her hair.
Seeing the situation, if he continued to talk like this, Wu Jian was afraid that he would doubt Cai Yin's identity, so he said: "Without further ado, I'll go back and study it quickly." ”
Yang Ming knew that Weng Lao was worried, so he simply greeted Wu Jian, and sent Weng Lao and them out of the house.
"Little Master Caiyin, are you really sure that you can refine the poison?" As soon as he walked not far away, Weng Lao couldn't help but ask.
Cai Yin didn't answer directly, looking at Weng Lao's worried eyes and Yang Ming's expectant gaze, she just said truthfully: "I'll try it." ”
Yang Ming led them out of the courtyard, and at this time, living in the courtyard next to them, two people dressed as medicine wizards were looking at Yang Ming and the others through the window. Weng Lao inadvertently glanced at the courtyard of the two people, only to see some medicinal herbs piled up randomly in the yard, Weng Lao looked dissatisfied, and said: "This person is too careless, he actually put the snake tongue grass in the sun to expose it, if this herb is exposed to the sun for a long time, it will greatly reduce the medicinal properties." ”
Hearing Weng Lao's words, Yang Ming suddenly realized and said, "I see, they are not medicine wizards at all, but people sent to monitor us. ”
Yang Ming's words made Weng Lao even more worried, "Since this place is so dangerous, Yang Ming, you better not live here." ”
Yang Ming shook his head and declined Elder Weng's kindness, "Where can we go?" The entire Wuxian City is under the surveillance of An Shice, don't forget, An Shice is a pre-thinking wizard, we have been targeted, and we can't hide." ”
"It's all my fault, I shouldn't have asked Mr. Wu Jian to escort Que Qing. After realizing the danger of the teenagers, Weng Lao blamed himself.
Looking at Weng Lao's worried look, Yang Ming comforted instead: "Weng Lao, we don't regret escorting Mr. Que Qing here, Mr. Que Qing is a great medicine wizard, and you don't have to worry too much, we still have an uncle, as long as the uncle is still here, the other party will not dare to act rashly." ”
After that, Yang Ming turned to look at Cai Yin, and pleased: "If the uncle can live, we can also survive, Cai Yin, you must treat the uncle well." ”
Facing the young man's sincere gaze, Cai Yin nodded, and then she stretched out her little hand like warm jade, gently placed it on the young man's chest, and said, "I will find a way to deal with the uncle's poison, but your injuries must also be treated." ”
Although it was through the clothes, the place where Cai Yin's little hand touched it was the part where Yang Ming was scratched by the vampire leech before.
"Yang Ming, are you injured?" Hearing Cai Yin's words, Weng Lao also asked worriedly.
"Yes, but I'm just a little skin injury, don't worry. ”
"Small injuries and big injuries are injuries, how can you not be tight?" Cai Yin said with a little anger, and with that, she took Yang Ming's hand and walked to the shade of a tree in the distance, and the two sat down on a large raised boulder.
Looking at the two people under the shade of the tree, Weng Lao didn't follow, just touched his beard and smiled: "It's better to be young." ”
Cai Yin carefully lifted the shirt on Yang Ming's chest, although it was wrapped in a gauze belt, but the two days of running had caused the wound that was about to scar to crack open again, and the blood soaked through the gauze belt, revealing a bright red color.
Cai Yin became even more angry, and said angrily: "How can this be a little skin injury? If the wound is a little deeper, it will hurt the lungs." ”
Looking at the girl's reproachful look, Yang Ming was like a child who had done something wrong, just touching the back of his head and smiling.
Cai Yin untied the gauze belt on Yang Ming's chest, then took out a bottle of medicinal powder from the cloth bag he was carrying around his waist, and gently sprinkled it along the blood stains of the young man's wound.
The swaying light spots swept over the leaves and sprinkled on Cai Yin's body, the silver mask on his face emitted a faint white light, the girl was so close to Yang Ming's body, as if it was close to his chest, Yang Ming blinked a little unnaturally, looking at Cai Yin's serious appearance, and a trace of fragrance could be clearly smelled between his noses.
The wound after spraying the medicine was a little painful, but it was already an inconsequential feeling.
Cai Yin took care of the wound, bandaged it again, raised her head, and looked at Yang Ming's dark eyes, and couldn't help but smile: "It's already well." ”
After being stunned for a moment, Yang Ming came back to his senses and was already fine.
"It's really strange, it hurt when Mr. Que Qing bandaged my wound before, but Cai Yin, you don't hurt at all when you give me medicine. Yang Ming touched the back of his head and said a little stunned.
"Don't be stupid, it will definitely hurt when you take the medicine. Cai Yin lowered her head a little shyly and said.
After a moment of silence, suddenly there was some commotion not far away.
"Since the county lord insists on refusing to go back, please allow the last general to send guards to protect your safety. ”
"I said, I'm practicing now, just like Lin Dong and the others, they are all students of the academy, please don't treat me as a county lord anymore, I don't want to accept any special treatment. ”
Yang Mingwen was famous, it turned out to be Xin'er and Lin Dong, as well as General Liu Chen, thinking that Liu Chen happened to meet Xin'er and them outside. And from their intermittent conversation, Yang Ming probably understood that Liu Chen was worried about the safety of the county lord and persuaded the county lord to return to Jiang Guo, but after Xin'er refused, he planned to send guards to protect her safety, but Xin'er refused.
Her own life and death can be put aside, but Xin'er is different, she is the county lord of Jiang Country. Yang Ming thought like this, maybe he should persuade Xin'er to go back, after all, it was too dangerous here.
At this time, Xin'er also noticed Weng Lao and Yang Ming not far away.
"Elder Weng, why are you here?" Seeing Elder Weng, Xin'er changed her mood and asked happily, "I just heard General Liu say that you are also here, but I didn't expect to meet so soon." ”
"I brought Weng Lao here, the poison in the uncle, Weng Lao may have a way. Yang Ming walked over and explained.
Hearing this, the girl's expression lit up, and even Lin Dong's expression beside her became hot, and she hurriedly asked, "Really, Old Weng, you really have a way to solve the uncle's poison." ”
"Ah, I'll give it a try, but I'm not absolutely sure. Weng Lao touched his beard and replied in a somewhat stiff tone.
"That's right, but you'll have a way, right, I really don't want anything to happen to my uncle. Xin'er looked at Weng Lao with prayerful eyes.
Looking at the county lord's watery black eyes, Weng Lao didn't want to break the girl's beautiful vision, even if it was just a trace of comfort, so he nodded.
After getting an affirmative answer, Xin'er smiled with satisfaction. At this time, Xin'er noticed that there was another person behind Yang Ming. How to say it, this is the first time Lord Xin'er has seen Cai Yin, and her first impression is that this is a strange girl, wearing a silver mask, hiding behind Yang Ming as if she is dodging, just like a child, walking out of the house for the first time.
"You ......"
"She is Cai Yin, the medicine boy of Weng Lao. Yang Ming hurriedly replied for Cai Yin.
Although she felt a little strange, Xin'er didn't ask any more.
"County Lord, what the general proposed just now, please think about it again. This Witchham City is a mix of dragons and snakes, and it is by no means a safe place. At this time, Liu Chen continued the previous topic and still persuaded him.
Xin'er said a little helplessly: "Okay, General Liu, you have followed me all the way, and you have said all the way, even if you are not tired, I am tired." It's not too early to see when you see it's getting dark, so go back today, okay. ”
Liu Chen glanced at the gradually darkening sky, thinking that he couldn't persuade the county lord today, so he had to nod helplessly, "Since the county lord is tired, please rest early, and I will come back tomorrow." ”
"Then I will also say goodbye to General Liu first, and I will study it when I go back. Seeing this, Weng Lao also surrendered his resignation.
"Well, it's all hard work. Xin'er nodded in acknowledgement.
Yang Ming didn't say anything more to Cai Yin, just gave her a farewell look, and watched her leave with Weng Lao and the others.
It wasn't until they were out of sight that Yang Ming said to Xin'er, "Xin'er, I think General Liu is right, it's too dangerous here, you still ......"
Before Yang Ming's words were finished, Xin'er interrupted him angrily, "Don't say it, I know you want to persuade me to go back, right? Aren't we companions, shouldn't companions share hardships together? Why do you want to push me away when there is danger? What's more, I also promised Mr. Que Qing, I will definitely protect the pill he left behind, if you persuade me to leave again, I will really be angry, you have to think clearly, if you annoy the county lord, you will not have a good time in Jiang Country in the future." ”
Xin'er's words made Yang Ming at a loss for a while, he glanced at Lin Dong behind him, only to see Lin Dong waving his hands helplessly, obviously, on the way back, Lin Dong also persuaded the county lord like this, and the result can be imagined, he was also thrown cold water.
After this period of getting along, Yang Ming also understands the temper of this county lord to some extent, if she decides something, no one can change it.
"However, General Liu's coming to Wuxian City is a good thing for us, and we simply explained to the general that the medicine tasting conference in Wuxian City was actually a bureau set up by An Shice in order to snatch the pill, and asked the general to send troops to protect us. Lin Dong proposed.
But before Lin Dong's words were finished, Xin'er denied his opinion without hesitation, "No, General Liu can't be involved." Now it's just a grudge between a few of us and Wuxian City, if the general of Jiang Guo is involved, it will evolve into a confrontation between Jiang Guo and Wu Xiancheng. An Shice has a very high prestige among the eastern vassal states, and Jiang Guo has also received the favor of An Shice, if Jiang Guo offends An Shice because of this, it will be extremely unfavorable to Jiang Guo. Therefore, the matter of protecting the pill can only be our personal behavior, and Jiang Guo must not be implicated. ”
Hearing Xin'er's analysis, Yang Ming nodded affirmatively, Xin'er is the county lord of Jiang Country after all, and he does think more than himself, "Xin'er is right, besides, we don't have any evidence to prove that An Shice bought the murderous medicine, so we had better not make a noise about this matter, so as not to cause more trouble, what we have to do now is to protect the pill left by Mr. Que Qing." ”
Yang Ming remembered that when he used to herd sheep in the village, there were often wolves scratching at that time, but Yang Ming was too young to kill the wolves, so he could only drive them away again and again. An Shice is such a fierce and powerful wolf, Wuxian City's power is extremely great, and it is impossible to fight with the current strength of the young man, so don't try to fight An Shice, just protect the elixir.
