Chapter 8 Deadly poison
Song Ziyu endured her anger and helplessness, listening to the old grandmother's chatter, and her back hurt when she was not tired of singing and watching the play.
The storm is finally over! Song Ziyu looked at his watch, it was already 19:30, although it was a hot summer at this time, and the starry night sky would always be late, but at this moment, the red sunset had already illuminated the sky, indicating that it was not too early.
Song Ziyu felt a strong sense of sleepiness, couldn't help stretching, yawned, and the old grandmother smiled: "Tired of listening? ”
Song Ziyu nodded painfully, and said helplessly: Yes, I met a master today! A few more times, I will definitely be admitted to the second hospital. And the grandmother was energetic throughout the whole process, sweating profusely and boiling with blood, and she didn't drink or eat water, which really made people feel rejuvenated, without a little sense of twilight.
After telling the trivial story, the old grandmother finally picked up the chopsticks to eat, and Song Ziyu was also hungry, but when she looked at the downstairs through the cat's eyes, it was still so bleak and terrifying, it seemed that she still couldn't get out of the illusion now, so she could only stare and continue to sit.
After eating a few bites, the old grandmother said dryly: "Choke me, young man, go and make me a cup of chrysanthemum tea, add two spoons of sugar, put three wolfberries, soak in 80 degrees of water for three minutes, and then bring it to me." ”
Song Ziyu gritted his teeth and rolled his eyes, got up helplessly and complied, and said angrily in his heart: This old and unserious person still calls me like a nanny, and what is even more infuriating is that he doesn't even give me a comfort to my stomach, it's really full and hungry!
Song Ziyu made the tea weakly, and served it to the old grandmother 'respectfully', and the old grandmother took a sip and asked him to sit down and stand by. But when he saw the old woman eating deliciously, he couldn't help but salivate, and his stomach growled.
The old grandmother finally noticed his embarrassment, and subconsciously stretched out the rice and said tentatively, "Do you want to have a bite too?" ”
Song Ziyu hurriedly waved his hand, and said proudly in his heart: Although my brother is from the countryside, he is also a decent person, so you don't need to treat me as a mud leg pitifully!
Unexpectedly, the old grandmother smiled uninterestingly: "It's okay, I don't dislike you!" ”
Song Ziyu smiled bitterly and refused the kindness, and said in his heart: I dislike you!
The old grandmother had to reluctantly tell him that there were still leftover pancakes in the refrigerator that he had eaten three days ago, and it should be barely enough to fill his stomach, Song Ziyu had to spit out helplessly, took out the plate of cold and hard pancakes from the refrigerator, heated it in the microwave, and reluctantly made do with it, and comforted himself: It's okay, just treat my brother as a pancake man!
He easily finished the pancakes, and the old grandmother slowly swallowed half of them, he couldn't help but snort softly, and urged mockingly in his heart: Hurry up and eat, the turtles are faster than you!
There is no way to be in a hurry at the moment, so he had to boredly flip through the photos of his grandmother and her wife when they were young, and suddenly thought of something, and said busily: "Grandma, do you have any photos of your wife in her old age?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the old grandmother stopped eating, took a sip of tea with a solemn face, and then sighed and shook her head. Song Ziyu was very surprised: Such a loving couple and an old naughty boy made in heaven, won't they pick up flowers in their old age and leave a few commemorative photos?
Don't...... She and her wife divorced again? Impossible, this is clearly a model couple, this possibility is very small, and even if it is divorced, how can there be a photo of the wife on the mourning hall now?
Song Ziyu began to break the casserole and ask to the end, but the old grandmother was still silent, revealing a loveless expression, which was very different from Fang Cai's happy smile, so Song Ziyu couldn't accept it for a while, so he comforted: "Forget grandma, the past is like a dream, why mention the past, you don't have to be too sad." ”
The old grandmother bowed her head slightly, and suddenly snapped her fingers, and then a puff of green smoke came out of thin air in front of the offering table, turning into a human figure, and an old man as pale as paper appeared! scared Song Ziyu's face pale, but seeing that this old man's body was as transparent as air, like a ghost on TV, and now appeared alive in front of Song Ziyu, could he not be shocked? !
Song Ziyu stood in place, his eyes staring as if they were about to pop out of his sockets, but he was already extremely nervous, and he was so scared that he had no master.
The old man squatted down in front of the old grandmother, and the old woman began to feed him one bite at a time, with a kind expression on her face, the old man ate a few bites, squeezed out an ugly smile from the corner of his eyes, and came out with an ethereal voice: "It's so fragrant, it's so fragrant!" ”
This voice echoed in the small living room for a long time, and Song Ziyu's hairs stood on end and his heart beat like a drum.
After the old man finished eating, he turned into a puff of green smoke and disappeared, but Song Ziyu came to his senses after a while, and said dumbfounded: "Grandma, this, this ......"
The old grandmother smiled and soothed: "Don't be surprised! ”
Song Ziyu wanted to ask the reason for this strange incident, and didn't want the old grandmother to preemptively say: "I know what you want to ask, since you sincerely ask for advice, then I will tell you with great mercy, in order to prevent the world from being destroyed, in order to ......"
"Okay grandma, skip this line, let's get to the point." Song Ziyu said urgently.
The old grandmother sighed again, put down the lunch box and chopsticks, and told him an unusual and strange experience with a serious expression.
Two years ago, she and her husband went hiking in the Yushan Mountains in Hsinchu City, and her husband did not forget to catch a few small animals and go back to make them into animal specimens.
In the evening, they were all exhausted and wanted to set up a tent in the same place to make a fire for cooking, when a strange little insect jumped in front of them, and this worm was so strange that it had only three legs! There are two in front and one in the back, and you can even crawl and jump! What's even more peculiar is that its body is bright red and green, while its feet are grayish-white, and the two of them were amazed at the time, this is a species they have never seen before! Even the learned husband sighed at this.
Her husband was so excited that he was about to put on his gloves and catch the worm, but the worm jumped up and bit her with a loud voice, leaving a thin blood mark on his white and flawless arm, and the worm jumped into the grass, and it was impossible to catch it again, and both of them sighed regretfully.
Originally, after being bitten by insects, there was generally no major problem, at most it was a bag, and the swelling would go down after a while. But that night, things were unusual.
Thinking that it was okay, her husband just used alcohol to detoxify her, and she herself felt fine, and she did not feel any discomfort. But in the middle of the night, when I suddenly opened my eyes, I was dumbfounded to find that the bite wound had a large area of ulceration, and then the whole arm was numb and rigid, red, purple and green, all festering, and it was terrifying and disgusting!
But I didn't expect that the more terrifying thing was still to come, she suddenly felt dizzy, sweating profusely, like a fire, her husband took his temperature and found that she had burned to 42 degrees! Stunned, she quickly opened the first aid kit and gave her medicine, but it had no effect.
After a painful night, the husband could not save himself, so he carried her down the mountain, and when he reached the foot of the mountain, he suddenly found a Taoist temple hidden by the shade of a tree, and the water brought by them had been drunk, and his wife was even more dry, so he had no choice but to carry her into the Taoist temple to rest for a while, looking for a water source.
When I entered the Taoist temple, I was surprised to find that there was a Taoist master and two Taoist disciples inside, and they were quite enthusiastic to settle them in a clean room, and the Taoist chief noticed her painful expression, and hurriedly asked her husband if she had a fever? There are also some antipyretics in the temple that can be given first aid.
Her husband had no choice but to tell the Taoist chief the ins and outs of the matter one by one, to see if he had any way, and when the Taoist chief heard this, he immediately turned pale with surprise and was dumbfounded: "Oh no! She was poisoned by the Soul Worm, the king of a hundred poisons on Jade Mountain! ”
At that time, she and her husband listened in disbelief, and hurriedly asked in a panic whether this poison could be cured? The Taoist shook his head helplessly, saying that this poison was bizarre and deadly, and the poison could kill in three days.
As soon as she said this, her husband suddenly sat on the ground with a dead face, and the despair in his heart was overflowing, but he didn't want to say that the Taoist took out a pill from the gourd in his arms with a smile, and said with a smile: "This is the pill of the Holy Spirit that I have inherited from my ancestors, it can cure this poison, you take it to the donor, and the poison will be dissolved after two days." ”
Her husband's eyes lit up suddenly, he took the pill and hurriedly gave it to her, and thanked the Taoist chief for his kindness, the Taoist smiled and touched his long hair, and said, "Since it's okay, then pay for it, 10,000 for each grain!" ”
Suddenly, her husband was shocked and confused, isn't it, the monk still needs money? This is a Taoist priest, he is simply a scoundrel! But he immediately felt that he was spending the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and no matter how he said it, people also saved his wife, just like the grace of recreation, what is it to ask for money!
But he didn't have so much cash on him, so the Taoist said that WeChat Alipay was fine, and just as he opened WeChat and was about to scan the QR code on the Taoist's hand, he felt that something was wrong: didn't the Taoist say that this poison was hopeless at first? Why did he later take out any pills and say that he was saved, and now he is still asking for money? What does this mean?
In an instant, her husband suddenly woke up: this is blackmail! Maybe this poison isn't that powerful at all, and the Taoist is just playing tricks. So he immediately changed his face, glared at the Taoist chief viciously, and established his consistent principle.
The Taoist chief seemed to understand what he meant, so he smiled and said, "If the donor can't believe in the poor Tao, you can pay 100 yuan first, and then transfer the money to me after the matter is completed." ”
Her husband's eyes rolled and he felt that it was feasible, even if the Taoist chief was really a liar, it would be at most 100 yuan, and it should be regarded as a lodging fee.
So he added the Taoist chief's WeChat, said that he was disturbing, and then flew down the mountain with his wife on his back, and when he got off the mountain, he quickly stopped a taxi and sent her to the best hospital in Hsinchu City for examination......
