Yan Ran and Wen Rong'an followed the woman to a farm on the outskirts of the city, and sure enough, they saw a group of people carrying a comatose boy with his hands and feet tied to the roaring fire.

"Stop!"

Van Mo rushed forward with his guards and stopped them from moving.

The woman immediately threw herself up, took the boy in her arms, and began to cry: "My son! ”

When the villagers saw that everyone in front of them was wearing soldiers' clothes, they stood in awe and stood aside in an orderly manner.

Wen Rong'an asked solemnly, "What are you doing?" ”

The leader stepped forward and said respectfully: "This lord, this son has collided with the evil spirit, and the villains are planning to take a fire bath for him!" ”

Wen Rong'an's face turned cold, and he reprimanded: "Ridiculous, where did the evil come from!" ”

As he spoke, he introduced to everyone: "This is Doctor Yan, who developed a prescription for the epidemic, to diagnose this child. ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Yan Ran, and they all showed a look of joy and admiration, and they knelt down with a hula: "It's the Heavenly Maiden, the Heavenly Maiden has descended to earth, we are saved!" ”

Yan Ran didn't care about these people, and hurriedly walked over to diagnose the boy's condition.

She asked for Fanmo's help in untying the rope from the boy's body, and turned him over, and found that there was something strange about him.

His whole body was black, but it was not the color of his skin, but it seemed to be covered in a layer of mist-like black gas.

He was very thin and had slender limbs, but his abdomen was as swollen as a drum, and he was so close that he could even hear the buzzing sound coming from his abdomen.

Yan Ran felt very strange and was about to take a closer look, but the boy suddenly woke up and straightened up suddenly.

Yan Ran was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground by him.

Wen Rongan stepped forward quickly, scooped up Yan Ran, and protected him in his arms.

But the boy was crawling on the ground like a snake and worm, and there was a ho-ho sound in his throat.

The villagers were immediately frightened, shouting "evil is coming" and fled in all directions.

Others, undaunted, ran to the fire, took up a torch, and threw it at the boy.

Wen Rongan held Yan Ran with one hand, pulled out his sword with the other, and stabbed at the torch, just slashing the torch and causing it to fall to the ground.

Although the torch did not burn the boy, there were sparks splashed on him.

He immediately let out a howl of pain, and when he opened his mouth, black worms crawled out of his mouth.

Seeing this scene, Yan Ran, Wen Rongan and the others were all stunned.

With such a strange situation, it is no wonder that those villagers think it is evil.

The boy looked like he was crazy, and Fanmo wanted to step forward to stop it, but he heard Yan Ran shout: "Stand back!" ”

Fan Mo retreated as he said, but Yan Ran covered her mouth and nose and rushed forward, raised a handful of medicinal powder, and then hurriedly retreated.

The insects came into contact with the powder and soon died, and Fanmo took the opportunity to knock the boy unconscious and control the chaotic scene.

Wen Rongan grabbed Yan Ran's waist and supported her trembling figure, but suddenly touched her cold fingertips, wrapped her hand in her palm, and said worriedly: "Ranran, how are you?" ”

Yan Ran withdrew her hand forcefully, clenched it into a fist, and even though she shrank in Wen Rong'an's warm embrace, she still couldn't stop feeling cold.

She raised her head to look at Wen Rong'an, and said with difficulty: "Cousin, this is Gu poison." ”

Wen Rongan was also shocked, and his heart sank suddenly.

Gu poison has always been the most tricky of the poisons, the violent ones can kill people instantly, the slow ones can lurk in the body for three or five years, and even the ones are as weird and terrifying as they are in front of them.

However, Bac Ninh is far away from the land of Miao Jiang, where Gu is produced, how can this Gu poison be transmitted here for thousands of miles?

Who is so ruthless, and what a grudge, that he uses such cruel means to deal with a child?

All kinds of doubts swirled around Wen Rong'an's mind, and he instantly thought of something.

He looked at the leader and asked in a deep voice, "Apart from this boy, has anyone else had similar symptoms before?" ”

The man was sincerely afraid, and he didn't tell the truth: "If you go back to your lordship, there are indeed two people who have collided with the evil before, and they have already been eliminated." ”

In other words, before the boy became ill, they had already burned to death two people with Gu poison.

If it weren't for the fact that this woman loved her son and ran out to find someone for help, I am afraid that this boy would not be able to escape the fate of being burned to death.

Wen Rong'an whispered to Yan Ran: "Ranran, this Gu poison is strange, I suspect that Da Yue Guo poisoned it, intending to cause another plague in Beining, we have to go back immediately!" ”

Yan Ran said, "Cousin, let's go our separate ways. You go back and tell your uncle about it, and I'll stay to reassure the people. ”

Wen Rongan didn't think about it, and firmly refused: "No, Ranran, I can't leave you here!" ”

Yan Ran comforted him and said, "Cousin, don't worry, this Gu poison is different from the plague, it is not contagious before the onset of the disease, and even if it is infected, it will not attack immediately." It's just that the boy has been sick for a long time, and these villagers have had a lot of contact with him, and they may have been infected with the poison. If we leave, they may flee for fear of evil, and won't they take the poison to other places and poison more people? I'm staying here to reassure them and keep them from running around. ”

Yan Ran's words changed sharply, and then said: "In addition, I need your help in one more thing, help me bring Su Yu over." Su Yu is cunning, I don't worry about letting others escort him, so I can only let you go! ”

Wen Rongan was persuaded by Yan Ran, but he paused slightly when he heard Su Yu's name, and then responded: "Okay, wait for me to come back!" ”

Yan Ran looked at Wen Rong'an's back, the smile on her face gradually dissipated, and gently rubbed the wound that was bitten by the insect when she was applying the medicine powder on her fingertips.

Wen Rongan soon went and returned, bringing not only Su Yu, but also many soldiers.

Under the command of Wen Rong'an, the soldiers surrounded and isolated the place, and built simple temporary shelters, porridge shacks, and medicine shacks.

Due to their previous experience in epidemic prevention, they moved much faster this time, and by the evening, they had basically completed their work.

On the other side, Yan Ran directly buried himself in studying Gu poison with Su Yu, and no one was allowed to disturb him.

"This poison should be a chancre Gu, which enters the body from the seven orifices or wounds, sticks to the intestines, and can give birth to insect eggs. It was not contagious before the outbreak of the virus, but once it broke out, it was no less contagious than the plague. This Gu is made of seven kinds of poisonous insects unique to Miaojiang, and it should be solved with the corresponding seven kinds of poisonous flowers. So what we need to do now is to figure out what these seven poisonous insects are first. ”

Su Yu looked indifferent, and said casually: "You've figured it out, what else do you want me to do?" ”

Yan Ran shook his head and said frankly: "Gu poison is produced in the land of Miao Jiang, mysterious and treacherous, and materials are scarce, so I haven't studied it, I just know the reason." ”

Su Yu asked, "Then why don't you ask Mo Sui for help?" ”

Yan Ran said: "The Great Yue Kingdom may attack at any time, and Mr. Mo still needs to sit in the army." Moreover, Mr. Mo has been in the army all the year round, mainly focusing on ulcers, and he also studies life-saving techniques on weekdays. How can you have the time to study these strange and poisonous things all day long, like you. ”

Su Yu was the only one among the three of them who knew Gu arts, Yan Ran was clearly asking for him now, but he still dared to ridicule him like this?

He was angry and said with a smile: "But why should I help you?" ”

Yan Ran asked rhetorically, "Are you helping me?" ”

Su Yu was asked.

As a doctor, he should be responsible for saving lives and helping the wounded.

Although his position is different from Yan Ran's, now they are facing a common foreign enemy, a common family and people, where is there anyone to help whom?

Yan Ran said: "Okay, let's hurry up, I will assist you." ”

Su Yu was puzzled: "Don't you don't understand Gu poison, how can you help me?" ”

Yan Ran said unshockedly: "I have also been poisoned by this poison, and I can describe the changes in your condition in detail and accurately, so that you can pass the disease more quickly and ......effectively."

Before Yan Ran's words were finished, she was interrupted by Su Yu: "What did you say?" ”

There was a hint of panic in his eyes, and he subconsciously raised his hand to catch Yan Ran's pulse.

Yan Ran raised her hand to stroke the hairpin, and then lowered her arm under the table, avoiding his touch.

Su Yu's hand paused in the air, slightly embarrassed, and instead took a pen and wrote down the prescription: "You are still shallowly poisoned, you can use vomiting or laxative methods to expel the insect Gu that has not yet formed." ”

Yan Ran read the prescription and called Qingxuan in, asking her to give this prescription to Wen Rong'an, which can be vigorously promoted in the city as a prevention of Gu poison.

Yan Ran finished all this, and said to Su Yu: "If you study the antidote, you must understand the toxicity. If you ask the villagers, they may not be clear. I've been poisoned anyway, and no one is more suitable than me. Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible that you have to test the poison yourself? ”

Su Yu was silent and couldn't answer immediately.

Yan Ran knew that he was not great enough to test the poison himself, otherwise he could have tested the medicine by himself in his previous life, so why torture her?

But it was precisely like this that Su Yu couldn't understand Yan Ran's behavior: "Even if you can't develop an antidote, there is always a way to deal with it, you don't need to do this, right?" ”

Yan Ran said with a straight face: "If I guessed correctly, the way you said to deal with it is to choose to treat mild patients and abandon severe patients, right?" But Da Yue can be poisoned once, and it can be poisoned a second time. If we don't have a way to detoxify, we can only be controlled by others all the time. Also, it's ridiculous for me to say something like that from your mouth. ”

Su Yugang wanted to defend something, but Yan Ran said undoubtedly: "I know which kinds of poisonous insects the Gu poison is made of, and then I need to use seven poisonous flowers to prepare the antidote." If this poisonous flower is also unique to Miaojiang, I'm afraid I will have to run there. The situation is urgent, and we don't have that much time to waste. ”

Yan Ran's words were reasonable, and Su Yu also put away his scattered thoughts and waited seriously.

Wen Rongan was busy settling the people, and he couldn't help with the detoxification, so he could only be patient and not bother.

Until late at night, Yan Ran did not return to the room to rest.

Wen Rongan gently pushed open the door, only to see Yan Ran lying on the table and falling asleep, but Su Yu was nowhere to be found.
