Chapter 42: Providence and Hope

Akasi looked at the three people who were slowly going back, and also looked at the ghost doctor who had died, and shook his head inexplicably.

His figure vanished suddenly.

The next moment, he appeared in front of the scholar and his party.

The cook was like a great enemy, clenching Jiutu and staring at Akas. The scholar was not so nervous.

"Cook, put away your knives."

The cook was puzzled.

"If he wants to kill us, you won't even have time to draw the knife, and we'll die. The shopkeeper is seriously injured and unconscious, we have no chance of winning, even if the shopkeeper is here, I'm afraid the result will be the same. ”

The scholar's tone was very calm, of course, the usual ridicule of Ding Qiliang still did not change at all.

Akath glanced at the scholar, who seemed to look like a certain person, and he stretched out his hand, and there was a pill in the palm of his hand.

"His martial arts are very good, and I've been feeling this way for a long time. He doesn't deserve to die here, it's the antidote. ”

The antidote to the poison of the flying knife, Akasi, actually took the initiative to hand it over, and the cook and Zhong Yunxiu were overjoyed.

Akasi turned around and wanted to leave, but he said lightly: "Heal his injuries, and then tell this person that I am waiting for him at the martial arts conference." ”

As if giving an order, Akath vanished like a ghost. The scholar was suddenly envious, but then bored.

The cook didn't understand what Akasi meant. The scholar said: "The strongest assassin in the entire continent, he has not experienced the feeling of being restrained for a long time, and the shopkeeper's wind and sand sword intent has made him a little interested. He wanted to have a fair fight with the shopkeeper. ”

"I see, this guy isn't bad." Ding Qiliang said.

"Speaking of which, cook, you have to make progress faster, maybe next time, the shopkeeper falls, we don't have such good luck, last time it was Li Nianyun who made a move, and this time it was Akasi who competed. I don't know who he will provoke next time, now there are four people in the inn, you are obviously the biggest, but your martial arts are so weak. ”

These words made Ding Qiliang red-faced. But Ding Qiliang couldn't refute it. He was also very helpless, the first time, he was cut half dead by Qi Linya's three knives. And this time, he faced a monster that defeated the shopkeeper in one round, although the shopkeeper deliberately did not avoid the opponent's attack.

At this point, the scholar is actually sighing, this guy can inexplicably attract these top existences in the rivers and lakes, the first knife in the world, Li Nianyun, the sect master of the Demon Sect, and the first assassin in the world. In addition to a wry smile, he could only ask Ding Qiliang to become stronger early.

In fact, the chef has already made rapid progress, and after having the Nine Butcher Knife, he can even make the master of the Nine Leaves Realm on guard with all his might, otherwise Fang Cai's three-life and all things formation, the shopkeeper will not be able to say that the formation will be broken, and Ding Qiliang's knife is very important.

……

After arriving at the cottage, the three of them began to get busy, after the shopkeeper took the antidote, there was only a flesh wound left on his body, although the injury was critical, but the shopkeeper was a master of the realm of nine leaves, and after doing a simple treatment, he was free from the worry of life.

Lying in front of the three of them in front of the inn was a huge problem.

The poison of red-eyed resentment.

"We don't have much time, and once the caster of the Voice Control Soul Control Dafa falls into a coma or dies, the person who is in the middle of the spell will have a state of consciousness collapse for a period of time. So they are at a loss now, and once they regain consciousness, they may show their beast instincts and hunt everywhere. "The scholar is colorful.

The ghost doctor died, and the medical immortal who could solve the poison was poisoned himself, but Zhong Yunxiu was a doctor with extremely shallow medical skills.

For a moment, all three of them felt the pressure. Thousands of lives, if not more, are waiting to be saved.

Zhong Yunxiu suddenly remembered that before his father took poison, he mentioned a medicine bottle engraved with forbidden words. So she began to search her father's medicine shelf, Zhong Yunxiu has lived in the grass house for many years, so she naturally knows where and where each medicine is.

It didn't take long for her to find the bottle.

Unlike some pill bottles, most of which contained pills with some dust on them, this pill bottle was clean and spotless, and Zhong Yunxiu recalled that his father seemed to have been wiping this bottle many times.

Although my father has long since ceased to practice medicine, he has to practice medicine every once in a while, and then replace the medicine in this bottle.

She didn't understand what it was. But the scholar seemed to understand that at this moment, the scholar showed reasoning beyond ordinary people.

When the scholar fought against Mi Zang before, he judged the general situation from Mi Zang's voice and Zhong Wanxin and Zhong Yunxiu's words.

Countless possibilities flashed through his mind. Start piecing together many fragments with your imagination.

The red-pupil grudge was something Uncle Zhong had known for a long time, because it was one of the two major regrets in his life. His apprentice refined the poison.

Uncle Zhong came into contact with the Red Pupil Grudge many years ago, but the ghost doctor did not let it be solved, but increased the dose and poisoned the poisoned person in advance.

Then Uncle Zhong should have no way to detoxify, so Mrs. Zhong asked to test the poison herself, but then because she misunderstood her brother's words, she caused a catastrophe.

Because of this, a loving father, after seeing his daughter's determination, still refuses to teach medical skills.

Uncle Zhong concluded that medical skills were ominous, so he stopped practicing medicine and lived in remorse.

But the more a person regrets, the more he will try to continue what he didn't do back then.

Judging from the traces on the medicine bottle and the forbidden word, Uncle Zhong should be very special to this medicine bottle.

Mi Zang's words mentioned that Uncle Zhong had almost succeeded. He naturally didn't know the specific situation at that time, but the scholar believed that it was impossible for the world's first medical immortal to be helpless in the face of a poison, and if he was not quite sure, how could he agree with his wife to test the poison himself.

In other words, if Mrs. Zhong hadn't died of poison early due to dosage problems, then it is very likely that Uncle Zhong would have made an antidote, or even he had already made an antidote but didn't have time to test it.

The death of Madame Chung was a devastating blow to him, so Uncle Chung lost his confidence as a doctor.

The scholar is still deducing that Uncle Zhong has not practiced medicine for many years, which can be seen from the dust on other medicine bottles, but why is this medicine bottle so clean, and why is it engraved with forbidden words.

Zhong Wan Poison is called Wan Poison only because he can crack all the strange poisons in the world, but he never makes poison.

So what kind of thing has a forbidden word engraved on it? Nature can only be what he thinks is dangerous, but the reason why he didn't destroy it is that maybe it can also defuse the danger, but he can't experiment with it.

Looking at Zhong Yunxiu's puzzled expression, the scholar spoke: "If I guess correctly, I think this is the antidote to the red pupil's resentment." ”

As soon as these words came out, the cook and Zhong Yunxiu were shocked.

The scholar continued: "I am sixty percent sure. Ah Xiu, did Uncle Zhong explain to you before taking the poison to find this medicine bottle? ”

Zhong Yunxiu was a little stunned, the scholar seemed to be by her and her father's side at that time, and then she nodded.

"That won't be wrong, I'm 90% sure now."

Immediately, the scholar told the two of them what he had guessed and inferred. This process was very short, but it made the cook and Zhong Yunxiu stunned. The cook was also present at the time, but he only knew about the poison under the ghost doctor, and he only knew that the ghost doctor had a period of right and wrong with Zhong Wanxin back then, but he never expected that the scholar could deduce so much.

Zhong Yunxiu is the same, through the inference of the events of the year, the scholar even knows the specific situation better than the townspeople under the mountain.

The three of them looked at the medicine bottle at the moment, but they were a little overwhelmed. Because there is only one antidote.

After a long silence, the scholar expressed his opinion.

"Ah Xiu, you have two choices now, since Uncle Zhong explained to you that he found this medicine bottle with the idea of death, he naturally thought that you had the ability to practice this medicine. You can choose to feed the antidote to Uncle Zhong, if you can really remove the poison, then the recovered Uncle Zhong will naturally be able to refine the antidote. ”

The cook nodded, and suddenly felt that the scholar's head was indeed smarter than him, but then the scholar said:

"But I don't recommend you to do this, because there is still a 10% chance that this kind of thing will fail, if the antidote can't cure Uncle Zhong's poison, if the antidote is only a half-finished product, if the poison that the ghost doctor Mi Zang gave to Uncle Zhong is stronger than the poison of other people, all kinds of factors may lead to that 10% failure. In that case, there will be no antidote. ”

He paused, looked at Zhong Yunxiu seriously and said:

"If you want to become the successor of the world's first doctor, then hard work alone is not enough, since Uncle Zhong can entrust you with such an important thing, it is natural that he believes that you have such a talent, so, Ah Xiu, I suggest that you use the means of a doctor, whether it is to take the antidote or other methods, you have to find a way to make it."

The scholar actually has no confidence, he knows that Zhong Yunxiu has a heart to study medicine and a heart to help the world. But whether you can become a first-class doctor in the world, you have to be talented.

Zhong Yunxiu was speechless for a while, not long ago today, she knelt at the foot of the mountain, watching the people closest to her in those years being turned into beasts by the red pupils.

She said helplessly what to do, she originally thought that it was the malice of fate, so that the patients she had been cured by testing the poison were once again infected with the most terrible poison in the world.

She thought everything was ruined.

Then on the mountain road, she saw her father take poison in front of her, and she also became a medicine attendant.

At that moment, Zhong Yunxiu listened to the ghost doctor's ridicule, thinking that the only person in the world who could cure this poison was gone, and she felt extremely hopeless and helpless. She thought that the townsfolk would never come back, so she begged Chenhui to kill Mizang for her.

At that time, she really thought that everything was hopeless.

But now, she realized that this was not the case. Zhong Yunxiu felt as if there was a tidal wave pressing on his chest again, and felt a sour nose, it turned out that his father had already untied this poison, and it turned out that fate still had such an arrangement.

Her hand trembled slightly as she picked up the vial. She thought of her mother, her mother was the best pharmacist in the world, her mother made her memorize the various qualities of various drugs when she was very young, and Zhong Yunxiu also showed the ability to amaze the Zhong family and his wife at that time, no matter how complicated the medicine, she could always know which herbs were boiled.

She still remembers the joy of her mother at that time, saying that her daughter can support herself even if she is not a doctor and a pharmacist, and she even remembers her father's disdain for pharmacists at that time, and the smile that she couldn't contain.

Zhong Yunxiu doesn't know what kind of medicine can cure what kind of disease, but she can know what kind of medicine is made of which medicine, which is her talent.

It was the talent that Madame Chung brought to her. It was also Mrs. Zhong who made her taste all kinds of herbs. Although Mrs. Zhong died of the Red Pupil Grudge, maybe there is really such a thing as providence in the dark, and the good cause that Mrs. Zhong planted many years ago has become the key to breaking the Red Pupil Grudge and saving thousands of people now.

I couldn't stop the tears, Zhong Yunxiu really missed her mother, and I wanted to say thank you to her.

With her father's recipe and the talent her mother brought to her, she finally saw the light in the darkness of despair and helplessness.

Zhong Yunxiu couldn't cry, but she cried with joy. Although she cried a lot, she squeezed out a smile at the scholar and the cook, and this expression in the tears was so ugly and ugly.

But seeing this tearful smile, the scholar suddenly had confidence.

Even the cook now knows that the thousands of townspeople in Nanban have been saved.

……

The time is two months after the Red Pupil Resentment incident.

In the past two months, two major events have happened, one is that seven doctors of the Imperial Imperial Medical Department died, and they all died in the Imperial Imperial Doctor's Pavilion, which was extremely heavily guarded.

The assassin is the legend of the Nanban Secret Realm, the son of heaven, the god of death of the silver moon.

At the same time, he also gave the Empire a warning that if the Empire used the innocent townspeople of the Southern Barbarian Secret Realm to conduct the Empire's drug experiments, the Silvermoon Kingdom would no longer be an ally of the Empire.

This incident shook the Empire!

His Majesty the Emperor, who has always been very low-key, was furious and scolded him for the words of the prime minister he was very afraid of.

It is difficult not to cause shock when thousands of people were poisoned, but fortunately, those who were poisoned were saved by the medical immortal Zhong Wanxuan and his daughter Zhong Yunxiu.

The empire sent people to the border of the Nanban Secret Realm to pass a decree to reward the Zhong family's father and daughter, and at the same time wanted to recruit these two people into the imperial medical department, but learned from the local residents that the Zhong Shen Doctor had gone to live in seclusion somewhere else, and Miss Zhong followed a person named the shopkeeper to the north.

……

In two months, it is naturally far from being able to learn the skills of a medical immortal, but in just two months, Zhong Yunxiu is no longer the mediocre doctor who only knows how to save people by testing poison.

Because the Red Pupil Resentment Incident in the Southern Barbarian Secret Realm involved too many townspeople, it was spread from one to the next, and its terrifying medicinal properties and symptoms after poisoning and contagiousness caused a sensation in the empire and even the entire continent.

And the poison called the Red Pupil Grudge was also officially listed as a forbidden drug in the Empire. One of the main ingredients is a red mushroom, which stimulates the nerves and makes people violent.

The Empire posted a notice that any drugstore attempting to sell the poisonous mushroom would be shut down if it was discovered.

Whether it is the empire or other countries or forces, they all understand the horror of this poison. For a while, they were on guard against the opponent from dropping this poison in their own country or forces.

The person who made the poison was said to be dead, but the Wanzang tribe of the Tieli Kingdom, the Yinyue Country, and even the countless tribes of the 100,000 Mountains of the Southern Barbarians believed that the prescription must remain in the empire, so for a while, the Zhong family's father and daughter became the targets of various countries and big forces.

The second thing is that the imperial palace diagram is lost.

That is the map of the garrison distribution of the Imperial Palace, and if this map is lost, many powerful people in the Imperial Palace may no longer be safe.

And the person who stole the picture is said to be a thief who has become famous or infamous in recent years.

The Great Thieves Exhibition.
