Chapter 126: Entering the Valley of Evil
On Zhong Wuregret's return journey, Pan Chong sent many government soldiers to follow Zhong Wuregret, but their news gave Pan Chong a headache. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Some people also say that Zhong Wuregret was unable to afford to fall ill because he was cursed by a sorcerer; Some people also said that when Zhong Wuregret was fighting with the wizard, he accidentally fell into voodoo; It is also said that Zhong Wuregret was seriously injured while attacking the robbers. However, except for seeing the heavily guarded camp, no one saw Zhong Wuregret himself, but some people said that they had seen Zhong Wuregret playing and hunting in the mountains.
Pan Chong stepped up his follow-up on Zhong Wuregret. Although Zhong Wuregret tried to block the news of the killing of Dr. Pan, Pan Chong still obtained the entire details of Dr. Pan's killing through the soldiers who slipped through the net.
As soon as they heard the news that Zhong Wuregret was seriously ill, Pan Chong and Deng Shi immediately thought that Zhong Wuregret was repeating his old trick again, and wanted to use this illusion to confuse them. Pan Chong and the others not only did not relax their vigilance, but strengthened their vigilance in all aspects.
In fact, Zhong Wuregret really fell into voodoo.
It was the night of leaving the capital. Zhong Wuxian drank a lot of wine, and he was exploring the double cultivation exercises with Neng on the bed. When he faced the wizard that day, because of the urgency of the situation, he just luckily got the upper hand according to the instinctive reaction of the yin and yang qi machine, but he still didn't know anything about many of the ways to enhance the power of men and women in the dual cultivation method.
He remembered that in a book he had read, a long-lived man said: cherish your energy, cultivate your spirit, and take all kinds of tonics, you can live forever. However, if you don't know how to have sex with a man, no amount of tonic will be of any benefit. Men and women become one, just as heaven and earth complement each other, because heaven and earth cooperate and adapt to each other, in order to survive forever, endlessly. If people do not understand the way of communion, they will be injured and corrupted, and they will die early and will not live long. If you can not hurt your body and lose your body, you can know the way of yin and yang, and the art of male and female intercourse, you will be able to live forever. Spend your days in peace.
When Zhong Wuregret was working hard according to the kung fu on the silk map combined with the gossip of King Wen, suddenly the dantian seemed to be stabbed by a steel needle, and the qi immediately poured wildly, like a needle poking at a balloon. His little brother immediately turned into noodles, and the man went limp.
When she was so frightened that she panicked, Zhong Wuregret calmly asked her to block all the news, and suddenly slowed down on the return trip, so she was suspicious. When leaving the capital. Zhong Wuregret only told Li Gong Qu Ping about this matter, and asked Li Gong Qu Ping to settle all the disaster relief matters after Zhong Wu regrets left. Because the bronze seal that has not yet been awarded to Li Gong as a doctor of Yi, he can only be commensurate with Li Gong for the time being.
Ligong Quping said that he would do his best to do a good job in disaster relief, and he also told Zhong Wuregret that Zhong Wuregret fought with the wizard because his skills were stronger than the wizard at that time, which made the wizard be counterattacked, but he only temporarily suppressed voodoo. did not cleanse the body of voodoo, his performance is the manifestation of voodoo poison.
Li Gong told Zhong Wuregret that he had heard that on their way back, there was a place called "Shuangjue Valley", where they found a lot of "Quanhua" soup springs soaked in Gonggong, which had the potential to drive away poison.
The so-called "Quanhua" is a treasure that the hot spring water brings to the ground over time. White, light yellow, gray-white, light yellow, light green, light purple and other colors. The beautiful diamond-shaped or cube-shaped spars are like the condensation of nature's life, showing off their beautiful beauty by the hot springs. Finding this place is like walking into a fairyland on earth.
But. Whether it really has that effect, Li Gong can't say for sure. Anyway, I had to give it a try, because Zhong Wuregret was getting weaker and weaker, and he had to barely hold on for a while longer.
After coming to the area mentioned by the prince, it was early the next morning. Neng Yan and Zhong Wuregret avoided everyone's eyes and ears, and brought ten guards to the mountain to find the "Double Absolute Valley" mentioned by Li Gong.
The milky white mist flows slowly among the towering trees, and the fresh breath is like a brook rushing into the air from the weeds, branches, and flowers, filling the atmosphere with the fragrance of nature. Numerous birds sing in the branches, competing to evoke the vitality of the forest.
In a few moments they came to a deep ravine. I saw that the cliffs on both sides were as smooth as mirrors, the dangerous peaks towered into the sky, and there were several big characters on the abrupt stone cliffs in the middle, "double absolute valley".
As soon as you enter the valley, here and below the mountain are like two worlds, and you can't see a trace of green in the peaks and peaks lined with strange stones. The whole mountain is like a blunt knife and an axe cut out indiscriminately, deep ravines and shallow ditches, and everywhere it is like a stone blade rock cone. In the cracks of the rugged mountains and rocks, there are ghostly screams from time to time.
As soon as I entered the valley, I heard a gloomy and sympathetic voice sound: "What day is today, send so many sacrifices, quack and ......quack" and then burst into a shrill laugh.
"Who?" The guards hurriedly stood in front of Zhong Wuregret and Neng Yan.
An old woman in black appeared in front of everyone, the black robe wrapped around her thin body, as if wrapped in a bamboo pole, her hands were wrapped in the black robe, and she didn't seem to care about these guards who were dancing and wielding swords.
Zhong Wuregret emanated the cold aura from her, knowing that these guards were no match for her. Sure enough, a guard just wanted to step forward, only to see the old woman in black wave her hand slightly, and the guard was hit hard in the chest, and immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Zhong Wuregret hurriedly told them to retreat, he stepped forward and said to the old woman in black: "Senior, we have no intention of offending, we came to the Double Absolute Valley, just to find a hot spring to heal, and I hope that the seniors will understand." ”
The old woman in black "quack" smiled: "Do you know why this place is called the Double Absolute Valley?" ”
Zhong Wuregret shook his head.
"Heartless!" The old woman in black said viciously.
When everyone heard this, a bad omen welled up in their hearts.
The old woman in black continued: "You don't have to be afraid, I just need someone like him to help me guard the valley for three months." As she spoke, the old woman in black pointed to a distant place: "Do you see it, that is the best place to guard the valley." It's a pity that the original valley watchman was crippled by the giant vulture, so I have to choose one of you. ”
Looking at the place pointed by the old woman in black, everyone was startled. On a pole stretched out from the crack of the mountain, there was a person hanging, to be precise, a person was hanging, and the head of the person was gone, but his arms were still stretched out in a "one" shape.
"I'll stay, my lord, let's go!" All the guards had to stay by themselves and let Zhong leave without regrets.
However, Zhong Wuregret shook his head and said, "You go, I'll stay." Seeing that everyone still wanted to argue, Zhong Wuregret continued: "Only by staying can I have a chance to find Tangquan." Otherwise, when the poison is attacked, it is better to live than to die, and it is better to die here. ”
When I heard the bell, I had no regrets about staying. If you can die, you will not go, and you have to accompany Zhong Wuregret.
The old woman in black looked at it, pointed to Zhong Wuregret and asked in a gloomy voice, "Is he your lover?" ”
Neng shook his head and said, "He is my husband." ”
"Okay," said the old woman in black after saying goodbye in a loud voice, "you are really affectionate!" Then the tone changed. He said viciously, "Do you know why I called this place the Twin Valleys? Heartless! I hate affection the most, and whoever enters the valley, I just want to turn those who are in love with me into lonely souls and ghosts. ”
The old woman in black gritted her teeth and said, a face was distorted and deformed.
The old woman in black looked at Zhong Wuregret and asked, "You really like your woman and never give up?" ”
Zhong Wuregret said firmly: "Not bad." ”
Hear this. Neng Yan clinged to Zhong Wuregret, holding his arm with both hands.
"Well, I like you best, otherwise I wouldn't have fun." The old woman in black said to Zhong Wuregret: "I will let you receive a silver needle from me every day, taste the taste of qi and blood retrograde, and if you can survive at noon, you will enjoy the taste of the wind in the valley to cut your body, and at night the snake bites insects, and the wind is biting." Every day, the two of you can only share a small glass of water and a small bowl of rice, and the cycle repeats itself every day, and when the time comes, you can know how deep your love is and how long your meaning is. Hahahaha......" As she spoke, the old woman in black looked up to the sky and laughed.
"Your Excellency." The guards looked at Zhong Wuregret angrily, waiting for his order, they knew that they were in front of this old woman in black. The martial arts are vulnerable, but they are willing to fight to the death for the sake of Zhong Wuregret not to be humiliated by this kind of humiliation.
However, Zhong Wuregret resolutely stopped their impulse. asked them to wait outside the valley, and after three months at most, those who could not see him immediately rushed back to Wangcheng to find Tang Zhong, and tried to take his family to the special training base, as for the future ending. All arranged by Cao Yun'e.
Zhong Wuregret had already heard from the words of the old woman in black just now that she was a master of medical Taoism. Zhong Wuregret once dabbled in medical masterpieces such as "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing", which is the only surviving masterpiece of medicine before the Warring States period. From the way the old woman in black tortured people, Zhong Wuregret had already learned that this old woman in black must be familiar with the flow, opening and closing of the body's meridians, qi and blood, and the laws that change from day to day with the coordination of the stem and branch.
Zhong Wuregret forgot about his own safety at this time, but was amazed by the profundity and maturity of ancient Chinese medicine. At first, he felt a little strange that this old woman in black was proficient in medicine, but then it was natural to think about it, and he estimated that this old woman in black might also be a witch.
The early shamans were exalted due to their knowledge and solution of folk difficulties.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, especially in the Chu State, the people believed that everything in nature had its soul, that some mysterious force ruled the world, that ghosts and gods and humans were in different worlds, and that only certain people with special functions could communicate with them, and these people were the so-called "witches".
Healing was one of the ministries of ancient shamans. At that time, people had a very deep understanding of the manifestations and classification of various diseases, but the goal of curing diseases could not be separated from supernatural powers. Since the occurrence of illness depends on the will of the demons, praying for the forgiveness of the demons is the only way to avoid the punishment of the disease, and all kinds of healing methods, utensils and medicines are the embodiment of the power of the demons and gods, which can only solve all problems by witchcraft, so the witches have the most advanced medical knowledge at that time.
Zhong Wuregret and Neng Yan were taken into the valley by the old woman in black. As soon as they entered the canyon, the old woman in black took them to a cave, and with a long roar, summoned a white ape, and the old woman in black said to the white ape, "Show me that they are not allowed to escape." ”
The white ape nodded as if he understood the words of the old woman in black.
At this time, Zhong Wuregret said to the old woman in black: "Senior, I helped you guard the valley for three months, but what is the reward?" ”
"Return?" The old woman in black was surprised: "If I don't kill you, it's the best reward." ”
"That's not right!" Zhong Wuregret said: "The seniors also saw it, if you don't kill me like this, I won't live for a few days, how can I say anything in return." ”
"You're a little special, aren't you afraid of me?" The old woman in black asked.
"If you're afraid, you're also a death, and if you're not afraid, you're also a death, so why be afraid? The seniors dared to bully me when they saw that I was poisoned, otherwise, if they dared to let me go to Tangquan to detoxify first, I and the seniors would have the courage to fight, and at that time, I didn't know who would win and who would lose. Zhong Wuregret said.
When the old woman in black heard this, she laughed strangely again: "Tangquan detoxification? You can't solve it for a lifetime, do you think I didn't see that you have fallen for the voodoo of that old pious woman? I will help you detoxify, but not all of them, as long as you keep you alive, I want to see that you have no food or drink, hunger and cold, a few days ago, you can get through, but, when time is long, you have to suffer for your own life, see if you still have a concubine. ”
"Senior, you are too vicious, love is the most precious in the world, you are so perverse, aren't you afraid of God's curse?" Neng Zhen couldn't help it anymore and shouted loudly. (To be continued.) )
