Volume 4: The Eventful Years Chapter 229: The Snake Girl [II]

Baoyu stopped her and said, "You don't need to fetch firewood, I see that there is not a lot of firewood piled up in your barn, and you bother to take care of the sick these days, and you don't have time to chop firewood, right? Just be careful not to let the fire go out, add one on it every half day, otherwise it will be troublesome to light it again. ”

Everyone brought six cold fire trees cut down by the old man, and in addition to the main branch with the thickness of the wrist, there were many thin branches as thick as fingers. Baoyu took out a thin branch and lit its tip with mana, and put it into the stove, and everyone immediately felt the warm heat. It's just a small branch more than a foot long, and when lit, it's equivalent to a whole stove of firewood.

And they went into the inner room again, and against the warm wall lay a bed of stones, and on it was covered with many soft hides, and in the pile of hides lay a large man. Looking at the outline of his muscles and bones, he can still see that he was very strong not long ago, but at this moment, his eye sockets are deep-set, and he has lost a lot of weight, obviously suffering from illness.

Dajun exclaimed, "Senior Brother Xia Zhuo, it's really Senior Brother Xia Zhuo!, how did you become like this?...... Hey, sister-in-law, why do you tie his hands and feet?"

As soon as she saw Xia Zhuo when she entered the house, Lan Mei'er's appearance became tearful again, and explained: "When Xia Zhuo is sober, he is itchy and itchy, and he can't help but scratch himself and hit things with his body, and when he is confused, he is even more uncontrollable. When I went out, I was afraid that he would get sick and hurt myself, so I tied his hands and feet. He is still in a coma at the moment, in fact, being unconscious is the best time for him.

Lan Mei'er was collecting medicine for Xia Zhuo this time. also went back to the snake girl's village to get herbs, mainly to relieve Xia Zhuo's pain and itching, and then simply let him sleep peacefully. Although this can alleviate his pain as much as possible, it will not cure his symptoms, so he can't just sleep peacefully every day, right?

Baoyu stepped forward and lifted the animal skin, untied Xia Zhuo's clothes, and found that from his chest to his arms, a strange pale cyan pattern had emerged, like waves, vines, and snakes. This kind of texture penetrates the surface of the skin from the body, and its texture may have penetrated deep into the intestines.

Baoyu quietly asked Hanxiong in a divine sense, "Is this a snake spirit disease?"

Hanxiong also replied secretly: "To be honest, I have never seen such an illness. But look at its symptoms. It is completely consistent with the legendary snake spirit disease, and to this extent, it is usually incurable. ...... Senior Brother Xiaolu, is there anything else you can do?"

In the world, except for the Eli Zhu Divine Medicine or the Spiritual Formula, no one in the world can cure the snake essence disease. Even if Hanxiong's father, Mr. Changling, or the venerable elders on the Wufu Hill came here, I am afraid that they would be helpless. People will always die, and at this time, they can only resign themselves to fate.

Baoyu said: "Since there is medicine to cure and a way to treat, it means that it is not a terminal disease." Regardless of whether Senior Brother Xia Zhuo has snake spirit disease or not. First, we need to find out the cause of his disease. Although I don't know the Spiritual Formula, since there is someone in the world who has created a spiritual secret that can cure this disease, it is not impossible to save him in a similar way through the Occult Method. ”

Hanxiong was taken aback, and at the same time secretly admired. These words came from the mouth of a teenager. It makes people feel that his tone is too big, even if this young man is already a beginner cultivator of the Five Realms, he can't be arrogant, although Baoyu's cultivation is already a master. But it's still far from the legendary masters of the world!

If Hanxiong had met Baoyu for the first day, he would inevitably think so, but now he admires Baoyu so much. So when I heard this, I didn't think it was Baoyu's arrogance.

In fact, Baoyu really doesn't have any arrogant thoughts, that's what he thinks. Unlike other monks in the world, no one has taught him specific secret methods of supernatural powers, and his practice has been entirely based on self-realization. The Jinghua recipe passed on by Emperor Taihao back then, he also comprehended it by himself, not taught by the mountain gods. Then there is a secret in the world that can save Xia Zhuo, and it must also be treated according to the principle of its pathogenesis, and Baoyu can not try it.

Hanxiong said quietly: "My father mentioned that it is said that the metaphysics of the Lingshu Jue is to cultivate the meridians of the internal organs and harmonize the operation of the divine energy. Emperor Xuanyuan once told future generations that although there are thousands of people in this world, there is an innate natural state, which is secretly in line with the way of heaven and earth, and the cycle is endless. The key to the soul is to operate and cultivate the body of the body, so that people can reach this state, so that they can prolong their life and avoid all diseases. ”

Baoyu was slightly stunned, and silently realized Hanxiong's words in his heart, if he didn't talk about the cultivation of supernatural powers, the meaning was not complicated. No matter what the state of people in the world is, there is a state that is theoretically normal, healthy, as if it should be born like that, and that is how people's vitality works.

If you deviate from this normal state, your physiological functions will be unbalanced, and if you continue to deteriorate, you will have various symptoms until you die, and this is a disease. And the so-called treatment, whether it is medication or other medical techniques, is to restore the normal state of physical and psychological stability.

The Lingshu Secret passed down by Emperor Xuanyuan is a secret method of cultivation, and it is also a guide to go to the Imperial Township Divine Land opened up by Emperor Xuanyuan Heavenly Emperor. Of course, it can't be created specifically to treat snake essence diseases, but metaphysics can make people get rid of all the diseases in the world on their own.

So according to this line of thought, regardless of whether Baoyu has a spiritual trick or not, he must first study the pathogenesis of Xia Zhuo, how is his physical and mental state different from that of a normal person, and what methods can be taken to restore him to normal?

At this time, Qi Luo touched Baoyu with his hand and whispered, "Mr. Xiaolu, is there any way you can cure Xia Zhuo?"

Baoyu nodded and said, "I'm thinking of a way, whether it succeeds or not, I'll try my best anyway." ...... It's not going to work, I'm going to have to get him to his senses. ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward and placed his hand on Xia Zhuo's forehead, more than an inch away without touching his skin, and his five fingers emitted a five-colored light, which gradually transformed into a pure white light curtain. Then his hand slowly moved from Xia Zhuo's head to his toes, sweeping his whole body with this white light.

Lan Mei'er, who didn't know how to cultivate supernatural powers, couldn't help but widen her eyes and show surprise when she saw Baoyu using such methods, she didn't know anything, so her idea was the simplest, thinking that the master could cure her man, so she waited with anticipation.

I saw Xia Zhuo let out a groan, opened his eyes and woke up, and suddenly his eyebrows furrowed and his face showed pain. Lan Mei'er hurriedly said: "He woke up, but it will be very uncomfortable when he is awake!"

Baoyu nodded and said, "I know, I woke him up, I need to observe his sober state." ”

The white light curtain emitted by Baoyu's hand was the magic of the five-color divine lotus artifact, and it was just mastered after breaking through the five realms, and it couldn't be used before. When he was in retreat and breaking through the Five Realms, he was attacked by the threat of the sword intent, and the five-colored divine lotus naturally sacrificed to the protector and turned into a huge white bud to wrap him. This is the artifact that is one with him, and Baoyu can sense it very clearly.

The five-colored light fused into a piece of white, which was also a harmony between the five qi in the form and god. In fact, this state can be achieved by a monk when the second realm and nine transformations are perfect, and there is no need to deliberately cultivate. But at this moment, with the help of the five-colored divine lotus, Baoyu has evolved a kind of magical power, not only for his own cultivation, but also for others.

Now Baoyu understood why he was able to recover so quickly every time his mana or physical strength was exhausted. Even if you are accidentally injured, it can heal very quickly and leave no traces of hidden dangers. It is precisely because he has taken so many lotus seeds and lotus roots since he was a child that his divine effect can be slowly refined and absorbed, and because his form and spirit are fused with five-colored divine lotus.

Changing to an ordinary Second Realm cultivator, of course, they can't compare to Baoyu, they can only use their vitality in cultivation to try their best to regulate themselves. And Baoyu can naturally return to normal, and sacrifice the magic of the five-colored divine lotus to others.

The five-colored divine lotus can drive away all the evil poisons in the world, but Xia Zhuo's cause is not ordinary poisoning, so Baoyu just let his disordered spirit be as peaceful as possible, touching his primordial spirit and making him temporarily sober. At this moment, he was not curing Xia Zhuo's illness, but had eliminated the pain-relieving, itching, and coma-inducing effects of the herbs Lan Mei'er gave Xia Zhuo.

Xia Zhuo was also startled when he opened his eyes and saw so many people in the room, and then he saw Lan Mei'er and Dajun clearly, and exclaimed in a hoarse voice: "Senior Brother Dajun, why are you here?...... Lan Mei'er, who are these people?"

With a flick of his fingers, Baoyu untied the leather cord that bound Xia Zhuo's hands and feet in the air. And Dajun stepped forward and said: "These are the new junior disciples who have gone up the mountain this year, we entered the Southern Wilderness Trial on the order of the elder, but we happened to meet Lan Mei'er, and learned that you live here, and you are sick......"

Dajun introduced everyone, including the dog-like senior brother Wang Wang, but he didn't mention what happened to Lan Mei'er today, so as not to worry Xia Zhuo, who was seriously ill. Xia Zhuo struggled to get out of bed to greet all the juniors, and everyone advised him to sit back on the bed and rest.

Baoyu has been contemplating and observing, Xia Zhuo's expression was very painful when he saluted everyone, often gritting his teeth and even his cheeks were twitching, and the pale cyan lines on his skin seemed to become more obvious and demonic with the trembling of his body. He could sense that Xia Zhuo was suffering from an irresistible pain all over his body, and there was an itchy and numb feeling that almost penetrated into his bones.

But Xia Zhuo forcibly held back, and his demeanor was not out of shape in front of all the juniors and disciples, which showed that this person was indeed very strong-willed, and he could grit his teeth and control himself in a sober state. But he can endure it for a while, but he can't endure it forever, and if he endures it for too long, it will lead to confusion and disorder, which has nothing to do with a person's willpower.

Xia Zhuo heard that Mr. Xiaolu was superb in cultivation and good at treating various injuries and diseases, so he specially came to treat him, so he couldn't stop thanking him. He sat on the bed and sighed: "This strange disease has tormented me for several months, and I feel that life is worse than death, but Lan Mei'er takes care of me every day." ...... Senior Brother Xiaolu, is this disease incurable? If there is no hope, you can simply do me a favor and give me a good time!"

Lan Mei'er hurriedly held his hand and said, "Why do you think like this? If you are sick, we will treat you, and I will tie your hands and feet every time I go out, for fear that you will hurt yourself!"

Baoyu said: "Senior Brother Xia Zhuo don't worry, I first have to find out the cause of your illness. Can you let go of the form and god without a trace of resistance, and let my divine energy and mana cut into your body?I could have done this when you were unconscious, but when you are awake, I can detect your illness more clearly. ...... In order to prevent the distraction of the spirits, let everyone else go out. ”

Everyone left the inner room and returned to the outer hall, waiting with some uneasiness. After a long while, I heard Baoyu say again: "Lan Mei'er, you come in." ”

After a while, Baoyu said in the house again, "Miss Qi Luo, you come in too!"

Qi Luo was surprised, Baoyu investigated Xia Zhuo's condition, what did it have to do with her? But she still went in very obediently. This time did not pass long, and I heard Baoyu say, "Okay, thank you Miss Qi Luo, you can go out." ”

Qi Luo came out again, looking inexplicable, because she didn't do anything after she went in, just sat next to Lan Mei'er, let go of the form and let Baoyu's divine sense accompany the mana investigation, and then came out. Everyone was also confused, and they didn't know what Baoyu was doing.

But the more mysterious Baoyu became, the more hopeful everyone felt and waited patiently in the hall. After a while, I heard Baoyu say: "Lan Mei'er, you can go out too, I have a few words I want to ask Senior Brother Xia Zhuo alone." Then the people could no longer hear the sound in the house. Presumably, it was Baoyu who used his magic power to hold back his voice.

There were only Xia Zhuo and Baoyu left in the room, and Xia Zhuo asked very worriedly: "Mr. Xiaolu, can my illness still be cured? If there is no hope of life, please don't hide it and tell the truth!"

Baoyu's expression looked a little tired, he just sat still, and he didn't seem to be doing anything, but his divine energy and mana seemed to be greatly consumed, and he was very tired, but his expression became relaxed. He looked at Xia Zhuo and smiled, and replied with a smile: "Senior brother, you are indeed terminally ill. I can't cure it. ”

Xia Zhuo was stunned, although he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but feel a burst of despair when he heard such a clear answer. But he didn't understand why Senior Brother Xiaolu laughed when he said this, and then he heard Baoyu say, "Although I can't cure your illness, I can save your life!"

In just one breath, Xia Zhuo's mood has undergone earth-shaking changes, and he leaned forward and said, "Senior brother, what's going on, can my life still be saved?"

Baoyu nodded: "Of course there is salvation." But I have to ask a few things first. ”

Xia Zhuo: "You ask!"

Baoyu: "The reason why you stayed here and settled down is because you are obsessed with Lan Mei'er's beauty?"

This sentence stunned Xia Zhuo again, the seriously ill man looked very embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer. However, Baoyu added: "Just tell the truth." Don't be embarrassed, no one else can hear. ”

Xia Zhuo's expression suddenly became a little excited: "Do you want me to tell the truth? Yes, I am indeed obsessed with Lan Mei'er's beauty and can't extricate myself, I just like her! Day and night, all I think about is her, and the person I want is also her. Isn't it a shame for a dignified man to be fascinated by beauty? If you want to laugh at me, just laugh at me. Is this the cause of my disease?"

Baoyu shook his head and said, "I didn't laugh at you, I just want to know what is going on with you, if you like her, just like her." It's not your cause, but it's related to your illness, and knowing this, I'm going to save your life. ”

Xia Zhuo wondered, "Why is this?"

Baoyu Zhengse said: "Don't ask why, it's hard for me to explain it in a few words." Your condition has entered the vitality texture and cannot be completely removed, but I can use another technique to make your vitality texture blend with this trait, and your symptoms will disappear. But if I do, there will be a consequence. ”

Xia Zhuo nervously asked, "What consequences?"

Baoyu replied a little embarrassed: "You will be completely indulged in the lust for Lan Mei'er, her breath makes you fall in love, there is no other woman in the world who can make you tempted, you only want her." There is no beauty in the world except her. ”

Xia Zhuo's expression was a little crying and laughing, and he asked rhetorically: "What is the consequence of this? That's what I originally thought!"

Baoyu explained with some difficulty: "It is precisely because you think this way that I want to treat your illness in this way. And once I do that, it's no longer just your thoughts, it's that you don't think anything else. Your physical and mental state will be different from ordinary people, whether it is mind or body, whenever you are involved in love, you will only feel for her, and you will only react to her.

This state of affairs is of course abnormal in the eyes of many people in the world, but it is your normal state. Of course, other than that, it doesn't matter what else it is, it's how it should be. If you don't understand, it won't hinder you and Lan Mei'er anyway.

You have not only cultivated the strength of the mountain, but also know the method of starting the operation of the divine energy, and I will teach you another set of methods, which is the way of yin and yang harmony, so that you can feel everything soberly. But your sober state is different from ordinary people, in the eyes of others, you will be fascinated by Lan Meier for the rest of your life, and you only have the desire to love her. ”

Xia Zhuo was a little dumbfounded, and he didn't react after opening his mouth for a long time. In fact, when he said those words very excitedly just now, he couldn't control it and was a little confused, and it was Baoyu who waved his hand in time to sacrifice a hazy white light that swept over his form and spirit, allowing him to continue to stay awake.

After a while, Xia Zhuo let out a sigh of relief, got out of bed and saluted Baoyu again: "If this is the consequence, it is also the consequence I want! ”

Baoyu nodded and said, "I'm a little tired today, I'll rest for one night first and cast spells tomorrow." You also lie down and rest for a while, and I will cast a spell to let you sleep well. ”

As he spoke, he asked Xia Zhuo to go back to bed and lay down, and Baoyu waved his hand to make him fall into a deep sleep, which was much more profound than Lan Mei'er drugged him to make him fall asleep in a coma, and he could not wake up until the next morning.

Everyone waited in the hall for a long time, and they didn't know what was going on in the house, when they suddenly heard Baoyu's voice come again: "Lan Mei'er, you come in again, I also have something to ask you separately first." ”
