Chapter 17: Evil Spirits Seek Life

Yun Yue and Li Linqian followed behind Lin Yu and came to the house of the blind man Lin at the head of the village. Before he entered the courtyard, he heard the cry of a woman, and there was a young man lying in the courtyard, and I saw that this man's eyes were sunken, his lips were purple, and his seven orifices were bleeding, and he was lying on the ground and convulsing.

"Hold him down!" Lin Yu asked Lin Erfan to hold down, and then tore off a coarse cloth from the corner of his clothes and stuffed it into Lin Erfan's mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue.

The old blind man standing on the side also said as if he was crazy: "The evil spirit asks for life, the evil spirit asks for life......

"I don't look like an evil spirit asking for my life, but like a symptom of poisoning." Yun Yue tilted her head slightly and whispered to Li Linqian.

"I also think that there is no such thing as an evil spirit asking for a life in this world." Li Linqian replied in a low voice.

Lin Yu heard the whispering behind him, looked back, and saw that it was Yun Yue and the two of them, but they were a little surprised.

"You just said poisoning?" Lin Yu walked up to Yun Yue and the others and asked, his tone was slightly soft and not as stiff as he was forward.

"Can I take his pulse?" Yun Yue asked tentatively.

"Are you Langzhong?" Lin Yu looked at Yun Yue from beginning to end and asked.

"Sort of." Yun Yue replied.

"She'll detoxify! Awesome! She cured my poison! Li Linqian hurriedly echoed and praised.

"Then the troublesome girl go and see." Lin Yu said sideways and made a way.

Yun Yue walked up to Lin Erfan, first checked his pulse, opened his eyes and took a look, opened the corners of his mouth and sniffed it, lifted his sleeve to check, frowned and said: "The pulse is disordered, the pupils are narrowed, the tongue coating is blue and has a pungent taste, and there are patches of red spots on the hands and legs, which is indeed a poisoning disease." ”

"And what is the explanation for this?" Lin Yu said as he squatted down and ripped off the clothes on Lin Erfan's chest, revealing a blood-red palm print, with a slender and weird shape, like a ghost claw.

Yun Yue was startled, stretched out her hand and groped in front of Lin Erfan's chest, and said, "The sternum is not broken, and there are no internal injuries, but this palm print seems to have been deliberately imprinted by someone." Did anyone approach him after he was poisoned? ”

"It's hard to say, there are probably dozens of people who carry people, see a doctor, and watch onlookers." Lin Yu replied.

"Carry him into the house first." Yun Yue took out an antidote pill and fed it to Lin Erfan.

Lin Erfan's symptoms were slightly relieved after taking the antidote pill, and if he wanted to cure it, he still had to prepare another antidote.

"Is there a pharmacy here?" Yun Yue asked.

"There is a foreign surname Langzhong in the village, he should have it." Lin Yu replied.

"Since you have Langzhong, why don't you know that this is a symptom of poisoning?" Li Linqian on the side asked curiously.

"You just need to detoxify, and you don't have to worry about the rest." Lin Yu said coldly, as if he had something to hide.

"Brother Lin, don't worry, we don't have the intention of snooping on the secrets of your village, it's just that this poison is complicated, I don't have full confidence in preparing the antidote, and this matter is definitely not the work of the evil spirit, I'm afraid it's man-made, if I find that person, even if he doesn't hand over the antidote, I can also dispense the antidote." Yun Yue persuaded.

"Hey, I said that human life is at stake, can you save it?" Li Linqian asked impatiently.

Lin Yu was entangled for a while and said, "Please come with me, two of you." ”

The evil spirit they talk about is actually a girl named Ah Yan, who is lively and cheerful by nature, and handsome in appearance, and many young people in the village love her. A year ago, Ah Yan's father accepted the patriarch's money and made a marriage contract for Ah Yan and the patriarch's son Lin Sanbao, but Ah Yan didn't like Lin Sanbao, but he liked the foreign surname Langzhong in the village. Soon after, Ah Yan became pregnant with Langzhong's child and was burned alive in the Lin ancestral hall. Not long after Ah Yan's death, someone in the village would die tragically every ten days, the death was strange, and there were ghost claws on their chests. Lin Yu's eyes were dark, revealing a sadness.

"What happened to Langzhong?" Yun Yue asked.

"It's still in the village." Lin Yu replied.

"Nine times out of ten, the murderer is Langzhong, not to mention that he is the best at configuring poison, just talking about the reason for the killing, it must be for revenge for love. Besides, he was the first person to be found when something happened to the people in the village, and the ghost claw should have been printed at that time, Yueyue, am I right? Li Linqian winked at Yun Yue and smiled.

"It's hard to say, there's no evidence." Yun Yue shook her head and said.

"Proof! Just look for it! ”

Lin Yu took Yun Yue and the others to Langzhong's house in the west of the village, Langzhong is a scholar with a white face, soft and weak, no wonder Ah Yan likes Langzhong.

"I don't know the three ......" Lang Zhong saw the three people go straight to the door, and he was a little at a loss.

"Ah......h Li Linqian pressed Lang Zhong to the ground, sat on Xiao Lang Zhong's back, and smiled at Yun Yue: "Yueyue, you look for it slowly, look carefully, I'll press it for you." Angry, Lang Zhong lay on the ground and scolded: "Shaft! Dare to ......"

It's just that Yun Yue rummaged through Lang Zhong's residence, but she didn't find any evidence.

"How so? Hey, Yueyue, what are you doing? ”

Yun Yue walked to the herbs and pondered for a while, then picked up the medicine box and picked and chosen, after the comparison between the medicinal properties, weighed and boiled. A dark brown antidote pill was ready.

The three of them returned to Lin Blind's house, and Yun Yue fed the pill to Lin Erfan personally. In less than half an hour, Lin Erfan's face eased and his condition improved, but he was still delirious and asleep.

At night, the bright moon was hanging high, the breeze was blowing, Yun Yue couldn't sleep, so she sat in the courtyard and pondered, and happened to meet Li Linqian who was thirsty and came out to drink water.

"Yueyue hasn't rested yet?"

"Can't sleep."

"Hey, what do you think?"

"I don't know, I'll ask when Lin Erfan wakes up tomorrow." Yun Yue shook her head, she really didn't know, Na Langzhong also saw it today, but it was unspeakably weird.

On the second day, it was not yet completely light.

"Fan'er!" A piercing cry of grief and despair pulled Yun Yue out of her dream, and when she went out, she ran into Li Linqian, who was awakened together, and when the two rushed to Lin Erfan's room, they found that he had lost his breath, and the blind man Lin was holding his son's body and crying like crazy.

When Lin Lao's blind wife saw Yun Yue, she rushed over and wanted to grab Yun Yue's hair, while crying and scolding: "It was your medicine that killed my son!" ”

Li Linqian quickly pulled Yun Yue behind him, but he was beaten alive.

"Hey, I said you guys, if it weren't for Yueyue, your son would have died yesterday! How can you survive until this morning! Li Linqian opened his hand to protect Yun Yue behind him, and slammed back.

Yun Yue stood up from behind Li Linqian and said calmly: "I am very sorry for Ling Lang's death, but even if my medicine does not detoxify, it will never aggravate his condition." What's more, we only arrived in Linjia Village yesterday, and there is no injustice or hatred, so it is impossible to harm him. ”

"The two of you better leave Linjia Village as soon as possible." I don't know when Lin Yu stood behind Yun Yue and the others.
