Chapter 16: The Skin of the Green Snake

Before I knew it, I had been lying in the hospital for more than three months, and the window had been covered with a layer of ice and snow, and the snowflakes kept falling from the air, weaving a curtain of snow in the sky, and it had not snowed so much in the south, and the changes of the seasons were always so wonderful, and my mood seemed to be much better.

For more than three months, I was already able to speak simple words and stagger a few steps, such as walking from a hospital bed to a window and admiring the snow outside.

The fat man moved directly to accompany me in the hospital, in his own words: If he has a father, he is more thoughtful than taking care of his father. But I found out that he had been in a hot fight with the head nurse recently.

No matter how busy he is, Duanmu will come to the hospital every day, and he often works directly in the hospital ward.

Duanmu Qiankite seemed to ask thoughtfully: "An Yan, let me ask you a question." An Yan stood by the window and looked at the silver world outside the window and nodded.

"Do you think a person's appearance matters?"

"It's not important to men, but it's important to women."

In recent times, I've been hearing about things like appearance. I already know something in my heart, maybe it's just that I don't want to accept it, maybe my appearance has changed a little after I was poisoned, maybe it's not the same me anymore, I don't know what I look like at this time, they have removed everything in the ward that can reflect light.

"End...... Wood...... Mirror. "Every time I speak, my throat seems to be cracked, and my thirst is like a tree trunk in the desert.

"An Yan, what about the mirror? Is there a mirror? Duanmu Qianyuan frowned at An Yan.

An Yan shook his head at me.

"Fat ....."

The fat man shook his head like a rattle and said, "Don't look at me, I didn't know what a mirror looked like since I was a child?" ”

Looking at their appearance, I became clearer in my heart, I have always had such a premonition, but I don't want to admit it in my heart.

"I ...... It's okay. "I can't speak clearly, so I can only use my hands to gesticulate, and my hands are still wrapped in thick gauze.

Duanmu Qianyu's eyes were slightly red, and he still smiled at me, sat opposite me and said seriously: "Mo Han, you ...... Your appearance has changed a bit......"

"Duanmu." The fat man roared angrily, his face was full of anger, and he clenched his fists, as if he wanted to fight hard with Duanmu Qiankite.

I shook my head at the fat man, squeezing out a smile, and my tense muscles felt something, "No...... Affair. ”

Duanmu Qianyuan took my hand wrapped in gauze and continued: "Grandpa and Elder Li are trying to find a way to restore your appearance, you have to trust them, you know? ”

I nodded.

"Hahaha" There was a hearty laugh in the corridor, and before the laughter fell, the voice began: "There is nothing wrong with believing that Li Lao." ”

"Grandpa, why are you here?"

"There is good news naturally coming, although people are old, but in their hearts, hehe, once there is a good thing in this heart, I can't restrain it, and I want you to know it immediately."

The fat man smiled and said, "Uncle Duanmu, is it possible that Mo Han's appearance can be restored." ”

Duanmu Ling sank his face, sat opposite me, and said softly: "Mo Han, corpse poison is rare, but you have to believe Elder Li, he is experimenting, fortunately, An Yan is clever and brought back the meat cut from you." ”

"Is Li Lao really a descendant of the legendary "Wan Mi Zhai's prescription, Li Shizhen's medicine"? An Yan probably asked to reassure me, if according to his character, even if he was poisoned by the corpse, he would not say a word.

Duanmu Ling gently patted me on the shoulder and said, "The world only knows Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Examination of the Eight Veins of the Strange Scriptures" and "The Study of the Pulse of the Lake", but very few people know his "Strange Demon Record". ”

"What is Grandpa's "Alien Demon Record"?" It's not just Duanmu Qiankite who is curious, but every one of us is curious, and the room suddenly quiets down, and everyone is waiting for the answer.

He and Ming Shizong Jiajing began to work on the "Compendium of Materia Medica" in the 31st year of Jiajing, after 27 years, traveled all over the mountains, lakes and rivers, and encountered a lot of strange things, strange beasts, strange monsters, so as to sort out the "Strange Demon Record", which recorded all kinds of strange diseases...... Corpse poison is one of them. Speaking of this, Duanmu Ling sighed deeply, looking infinitely regretful.

"What's wrong?" Duanmu Qiankite pulled Duanmu Ling's arm due to nervousness.

"It's a pity that after thousands of years of wind and frost, after countless wars, the "Strange Demon Record" in Li Lao's hands is now a remnant."

The fat man jumped up and said, "That'...... That...... Isn't that useless? ”

Duanmu Qiankite jumped up and kicked the fat man and said, "Who said no, do you know who Li Shizhen is?" Legend: His father, Li Yanwen, was fishing on the rainy lake. Usually he is lucky, but this time he didn't even get a few nets, and Li Yanwen was very frustrated. The last net felt heavy when it was pulled up, and I was secretly happy in my heart, thinking it was a big fish, but it turned out to be a big stone. Li Yanwen sighed: Stone, stone, I have no grievances with you, why are you playing tricks on me today? It makes me more sorrowful. The stone suddenly spoke: Stone, stone, don't worry about coming to congratulate. Mr. and Mrs. are about to fall on the moon, I don't know what Mr. wants? It turns out that this stone is the god of the rain lake. Li Yanwen hurried home, and it happened that Li Shizhen gave birth to the ground, so he named him "Shi Zhen". That night, Li Yanwen had another dream, dreaming that the immortal Tie Guan Li came to say goodbye and said: "Shi Zhen Shi Zhen, all diseases can be diagnosed." Be my disciple and pass on my reputation. "Is that so? Grandfather. ”

The fat man looked very unconvinced and said, "You yourself said that it is a legend." ”

Duanmu Qiankite stood up with a swish, pointed to the fat man's nose and said: "Fat man, is it good to read more books, the history of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, although it has been tempered by wind and frost, how many of the long history is unsolved mysteries, history, land, biology, science and technology, culture, architecture, folk customs, and folk customs have intriguing unsolved mysteries, and we now basically call the unsolved mysteries collectively: legends or rumors." ”

The fat man was speechless when Duanmu Qianyuan said it, but his expression was very unconvinced, but because of his ability to express himself, he was dumbfounded for a while.

Duanmu Qiankite said: "Looking at your expression, I am very unconvinced, to give a few simple examples: the ruins of the ancient country at the bottom of Longhu Lake, the ancient brain surgery and anesthesia, the mysterious daughter country, the Loulan that disappeared overnight, the underground palace of Qin Shi Huang, the thousand-year-old lotus flower, and the mystery of the three-star push...... I don't need to say that wait. ”

"This ......" the fat man was completely speechless, these are all real things, after historical identification, but can not make a scientific explanation, can only leave a mess of unsolved mysteries, the science column will finally say: look forward to the future development of science, will definitely solve these mysteries.

"Haha, what are you discussing so intensely?" Li Lao was in good spirits, with a smile on his weather-beaten face, his eyes were deep but deep and bright, and his silver-white hair was combed unusually neatly.

"Grandpa Li." Duanmu Qiankite saw her like a little urchin who asked for candy.

"Mo Han, I'll help you untie the belt, wrapped like a mummy, it must be very uncomfortable. Whatever happens, though, you have to stay calm and trust me, okay? Deep eyes filled with wisdom, and I nodded.

The bandages were opened layer after layer, and the moment I saw my hand, I was almost crazy, trembling and trembling, and the hand in front of me was a layer of snake skin, and there were many scales like fish scales on it, and the color of blue and yellow was very strange.....
