Chapter 439: Trying the Medicine (2)
Li Canghai almost didn't throw it up.
Shangguan Mao put the clay pot in front of Xu Liang, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times involuntarily, and he frowned and said, "Doctor Xu, do you really want to eat these?" ”
Xu Liang nodded, and casually poured half a bowl of thick green, viscous strange liquid on the broken pottery bowl in front of him.
At this time, Li Canghai suddenly snatched the pottery bowl with lightning and held it in his hand.
Xu Liang was stunned for a moment, and he hurriedly said, "Brother Li, why are you doing this?" ”
Li Canghai blinked his eyes and said, "Brother Xu, since you are from Qinling, do you know Zhang Xuan's life?" ”
Xu Liang nodded in surprise and said, "Naturally, I know that he is the senior brother of my Taibai Medicine Sect, and the two of us went out of the mountain five years ago to practice, and we haven't seen each other since." How did Brother Li recognize my brother? ”
Li Canghai smiled and said, "Brother Zhang has helped me a lot, and he has returned to Qinling from Luoyang a month ago. Speaking of which, you and I are not outsiders. I have a question, I don't know if I can ask it. ”
"Brother Li, but it's okay to talk about it." Xu Liang said.
Li Canghai thought for a moment and said, "How does your medical skills compare to Senior Brother Ling?" ”
Xu Liang said with admiration: "Senior brother has excellent medical skills, is well-read, and has many unique insights into incurable diseases. As for the healers, except for the teacher, I am afraid that no one can control it, and I am naturally beyond my reach. ”
Li Canghai nodded and said, "In that case, what your senior brother said must be false?" ”
Xu Liang nodded and said: "Senior brother is known as 'a needle hangs for his life', but whatever he makes, he will never go wrong." ”
"Senior Brother Ling said that I am invincible to all poisons, can you believe this?" Li Canghai said with a smile.
Xu Liang looked at him in surprise and said in surprise: "This ...... How is this possible? How can there be a body in the world that is invulnerable? ”
Li Canghai said: "I can't hide it. I once ate a kind of fruit, according to Brother Zhang, the fruit is called 'Solo Fruit', I didn't believe it at first, but later I did use my blood to save many people who were poisoned. ”
"Thoreau?" Xu Liang thought for a while and said in a deep voice, "I've heard my teacher talk about it. This fruit grows in the most shaded places, and is nourished by poisonous blood, making it extremely difficult to grow. But if it is cooked and eaten, it can indeed be invulnerable. But this kind of thing, according to legend, only appeared before the Qin and Han dynasties, and only legends circulated after the Qin and Han dynasties. ”
"I don't know about these legends, but my blood does detoxify." Speaking of this, Li Canghai suddenly asked, "Brother Xu." Do you think it would be possible to save them with my blood? ”
Xu Liang pondered for a long time and said: "No, in my opinion, the poison in those pirates is by no means ordinary, this poison can not only affect people's minds, but also stimulate the potential of the human body, and what is even more amazing. These potentials are constantly being stimulated, and after reaching a certain level. will explode and die. ”
Li Canghai was taken aback, and when he recalled the corpse of the pirate with his chest exploded on the road, he shuddered.
"I didn't expect it to be so dangerous, so I can't let Brother Xu try. I have an invulnerable body, so there must be no surprises. Prepare the ropes, if I go crazy. And he tied me up at once. After saying this, Li Canghai lifted the clay bowl, pinched his nose and drank the bitter bile.
Xu Liang stood up suddenly, and even Shangguan Mao was stunned.
Li Canghai's movements were so fast that none of them had time to stop them.
"Brother Li. You...... How can you do that! Xu Liang was surprised.
Li Canghai didn't react to Xu Liang's voice, he only felt that his mouth was numb with bitterness, as if his whole body was soaked in bile, he wanted to cry bitterly, but he couldn't cry.
Li Canghai swore that this was the most bitter thing he had ever drunk in his two lives, a hundred times more bitter than bitter gourd and yellow lotus combined! Not one of them!
Li Canghai only felt that there was a tumultuous river in his abdomen, he really couldn't bear it, and with a whoop, he vomited it all.
"Brother Li, are you okay?" Seeing this, Xu Liang hurriedly asked.
Li Canghai hurriedly grabbed the gourd holding water on the side, rinsed a few mouthfuls, and after a while, he wiped his mouth and said, "I'm fine, but is this thing really eaten by people?" Brother Xu, is it possible that you are wrong? They didn't eat turtle gall bladder? ”
Shangguan Mao was also a little puzzled, and he thought carefully: "I did see them kill a few turtles and take out the turtle gall, but, then again, there was no such strong bitterness as it is now. Could it be that we guessed wrong, these pirates were really punished by heaven to suffer from madness? ”
Xu Liang frowned, staring at the remaining bubbling bile, and fell into deep thought.
Li Canghai spit out all the bile he drank, and it didn't seem to have any effect, and there could be two reasons for this.
First, it is the poison of turtle gall that lurks in the human body and attacks slowly. Second, it is Li Canghai's poisonous physique that expels bile from the body.
However, what Shangguan Mao said also made him have some doubts.
"Come to think of it, have they put anything else in there?" Li Canghai asked while spitting.
Xu Liang looked at the bile, and then looked at the other tonics, and suddenly understood, he hurriedly put the bile with those medicinal materials, and then asked Shangguan Mao to take it out and continue to boil.
"Brother Xu, why are you doing this?" Li Canghai took a few sips, spit out the bitter water in his mouth, and questioned.
Xu Liang muttered: "I thought of a possibility, these herbs and turtle gall bladder may not be poisonous, but when they are boiled together, they may produce toxins due to the conflict of medicinal properties. ”
Li Canghai suddenly realized and said: "I know, it's the same reason that crabs can't be eaten with persimmons, two things that are originally non-toxic, once they collide together, they will deteriorate!" ”
Xu Liang looked at him in surprise and said, "I didn't expect Brother Li to know medical science?" ”
Li Canghai smiled and said, "Let Brother Xu laugh, I just know a little bit of skin, and I really have an axe in front of Brother Xu." ”
Xu Liang shook his head and said: "Why is Brother Li so modest, I look at Brother Li's majestic and extraordinary appearance, and he is by no means an idle person." Xu has traveled all over the world, but he has also met many people, and according to what he has seen below, Brother Li can really be called this 'humble gentleman'. ”
Li Canghai smiled dumbly and said: "Brother Xu, don't make fun of me, I'm afraid I'm not even as good as a beggar, and I'm even 108,000 miles away from Qiyu Xuanang." What's more, there are many capable people in this world, and Li really can't afford the title of 'humble gentleman'. ”
"Brother Li is easy to disguise, how can he hide it from my eyes?" Xu Liang smiled and said seriously: "The troubled times are coming, and in this world today, there are many hypocrites. Xu has traveled the world over the years and has seen too much hypocrisy and treachery, insidious and cunning. From the princes and nobles to the peddlers and pawns, each has its own purpose. There is intrigue in the court, and you are also fighting for me in the rivers and lakes! The various sects clearly saw that An Lushan had the intention of rebellion, but they were still fighting openly and secretly for their own selfish desires. keeps saying that it is for the sake of chivalry, but it is just under the guise of chivalry to protect their own interests! It is indeed rare to see a person who sacrifices himself like Brother Li, if Brother Li is not a gentleman, who in this world dares to call these two words? (To be continued.) )
