Chapter 33: The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate

What the purpose of the drunkard is, I know better than anyone else.

But except for me, no one could see through his mind before, and at this time, it was directly broken, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

I paid more attention to the phrase she said, "lived for more than a hundred years".

A woman in her hundreds, both in appearance and voice, is like a girl of seventeen or eighteen, and her body is strong, and there is no trace of age.

This simply subverts common sense and completely violates scientific common sense.

But she said so herself, and just now the drunkard called her "mother-in-law", and the respect she showed was true, even if I didn't want to believe it, it was also true.

I couldn't shout the "mother-in-law" just now, but now I feel very awkward.

My mother-in-law didn't care about my thoughts, and her focus was not on me, but she stared at the drunkard and didn't speak, just looked at him.

I glanced at the drunkard and saw that his body was trembling slightly, and he was vigorously wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Xiao Qi!"

The mother-in-law spoke, and the drunkard's legs shook and hurriedly responded.

"Well, I'm here."

"I treat you well on weekdays, although I have taught you a lesson, but I also protect you for the things you did at the beginning, there are such good things, why can't you think of me."

The drunkard lowered his head and explained: "Mother-in-law Shenlong can't see the head and the tail, even if I want to tell you, I have nowhere to find you." ”

"Hehe, you would say. This time, I also heard that the Wenshui River came out of the water sword, and I came to take a look, but I didn't expect to meet Xi'er, and it was also fate. ”

The mother-in-law stood up with a smile, twisted her waist, walked behind the drunkard Qi, leaned into his ear, and whispered.

"This time, for Xi'er's sake, I won't bother with you for the time being. As for the Yellow River treasure that defies the sky, the two of us will join forces to find it, if we can really get it, I can't lose you. ”

The sound was small, but I was close enough to hear it clearly.

The mother-in-law didn't trouble the drunkard, so he was naturally happy, and immediately nodded: "Yes, yes." ”

Hearing this, the mother-in-law smiled even more, clapped her hands, and said, "Okay, my business is done, and the rest is Xi'er's girl's business, isn't it to detoxify, then let's start." ”

"Then you..."

"Leave me alone, I'll just watch here, and I won't bother you."

Having said that, the drunkard Qi couldn't say anything, so he could only nod his head and wait for the tea.

The eldest girl in the medicine gate is the Xi'er in the mouth of her mother-in-law.

She glanced at me and the drunkard Qi, and said, "You two go out and wait for half an hour, I want to prepare antidote medicine." ”

"Good!"

Naturally, we agreed very happily, but under the nose of my mother-in-law, we were really depressed.

After getting out, I dragged the drunkard and ran out.

They stopped when they were sure they weren't far enough away to hear us.

"She's really over a hundred years old?!"

The drunkard nodded with a calm face: "She is more than a hundred years old, and few people know the specific age, but I feel that she is almost one hundred and fifty years old." ”

"It's amazing, how did she do it?" I asked curiously.

"She's the same as me, she's also a treasure-holding person, it's not the same as ordinary people, it's a matter of some secrets, I can't tell you."

Drunkard Qi once told me that he was only thirty-seven years old, but he looked like he was seventy-three. This and mother-in-law are like two completely different extremes.

I asked again, "If she is really over 150 years old, then her life span is really long enough, it can't be some kind of elixir." ”

As soon as he said something casually, the drunkard nodded his head.

"I heard that she has eaten a thousand-year-old ginseng plant, so she has a long life."

glanced at the drunkard, and asked tentatively: "Now that she's here, then you..."

The words were not finished, but the meaning was obvious.

Now the drunkard Qi is suppressed, and he is afraid to do anything, and I really can't trust that mother-in-law compared to him, so her arrival also makes me feel embarrassed.

The drunkard thought for a moment and said: "That's no way, my mother-in-law is one of the people with the highest rank in existence, and she can't afford to provoke her, and her methods are not something we can deal with, so we can only appease her for the time being, and take one step at a time." ”

After speaking, he also reminded me: "You must remember, my mother-in-law has a strange temperament, moody, and often kills people with a smile, so you must have a good eye when you get along with her, don't mess with her." Also, watch her eyes. ”

"Eyes?"

"That's right, my mother-in-law's eyes, known as the first sight of the treasurer, can't escape her eyes."

I still want to ask in detail, but the drunkard Qi doesn't plan to say it.

"These things are a long story, and today is not the time, let's go back and wait first, and don't let her grab her pigtails again."

When we got back, we waited in the yard.

Looking at the two eunuchs in the corner, I couldn't help but be curious, and asked softly, "How did these two eunuchs come from?" ”

"I heard that it came out of the palace, and I served the emperor, and I don't know how I became my mother-in-law's sedan chair presser, two weird things of yin and yang, leave them alone."

I nodded in agreement.

The eldest girl was very punctual, and after half an hour, she opened the door and greeted us.

"Alright, come in."

After entering the room, I found that the table was already full of things, such as medicinal herbs, utensils, silver needles, etc., all of which were traditional Chinese medicine things.

The drunkard praised him: "The eldest girl of the medicine gate is really powerful, and the technique of Qi Huang must have come out of the blue, surpassing your helmsman." ”

"If only I could learn the master's fur."

Without further ado, I went straight to the topic of detoxification.

The eldest girl said to me: "It's very simple to solve the poison on your body, but the difficult thing is to break the 'soul pulling' on your body first." You're just an ordinary person, and if I do it in a way that's too extreme, you're likely to be nervously damaged and become a fool. Therefore, I can only use a gentle method to transfer the origin of this evil law from the mouth of the heart to another place, and then destroy it. ”

I don't know this, but I also know that she won't harm me for the sake of the mermaid beads.

"It's all up to the big girl."

"Okay, you take off your clothes first, go to bed and lie down."

"Hmm."

I answered, lay down on the bed, and took off my coat.

The eldest girl was busy with the things on the table, and she didn't even look at me, but said directly: "Strip naked!" ”

"Ah?!!h

The drunkard came over, and while pulling my clothes, he said, "What do you say, take it off!" ”

At this time, my mother-in-law also came over to see the excitement, and the smile on my face was all over my face, and I said embarrassedly: "Mother-in-law, why don't you avoid it." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, my mother-in-law doesn't dislike you."

And I could only take off my clothes, because the parchment was still on my body, and I didn't dare to let the drunkard take it off, I took it off myself.

I don't know if it's my delusion, but I always feel like my mother-in-law's eyes are looking at parchment, and she stares at my clothes for a while, but she doesn't say anything.

Soon, the eldest girl came with a silver needle.

This is my first time encountering this thing, and I am a little nervous.

She sat on the edge of the bed, spread out the silver needle, her eyes didn't look at me, but she felt my nervousness, and said softly: "Don't be nervous, otherwise the muscles in your body will contract, which will affect my needle, and don't blame me if you stab me to death when the time comes." ”

When I heard this, I immediately relaxed.

The silver needle entered the acupoint, and the first thing to pierce was the forehead, and I didn't feel any pain, I just felt a little ice, and then the crispy numbness spread.

The big girl moved quickly, stitch after needle, piercing all over my body.

My whole body felt as if it was being anesthetized, and my consciousness was a little foggy.

I vaguely heard the drunkard Qi exclaim on the side.

"The thirteen needles of the ghost gate of the medicine gate are really a wonderful technique..."

I was dazed, and I don't know how long it took, but I suddenly felt a pain in my right hand, and my consciousness became much clearer.

Glancing at it, I found that it was the eldest girl who cut my tiger's mouth with a knife and was giving me school.

When I opened my mouth, the drunkard Qi fed me something, I don't know what it is, I swallowed it in one gulp, and I didn't taste anything.

After bleeding, withdraw the needle.

By the time I came to my senses, the lights were already on, and when I looked out the window, it was pitch black.

It's past eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.

Looking down, the black lines of the spider webs on the chest disappeared, except for a little pain in the tiger's mouth, the whole body was very relaxed, as comfortable as sleeping after taking a bath and sauna.

The eldest girl was guarding by the side, and when she saw me wake up, she asked, "Is there any discomfort?" ”

I shook my head: "No discomfort, very refreshing, thank you for saving my life." ”

"To each his own according to his needs."

With that, she got up and left.

Hearing the movement, the drunkard woke up, walked to the bedside, and asked me how I was, making sure that I was okay, and then he was relieved.

"Master Qi, the poison and evil law on my body can be solved so easily?" I asked uncomfortably.

The drunkard glared: "Simple? Hehe, let me tell you, just now I broke the evil law for you, and the thirteen needles of the eldest girl's ghost gate have already reached the seventh needle, and she almost got the eighth needle. ”

"Thirteen needles of the ghost gate? Isn't it easy to get a needle? ”

"Gua Wazi, what do you know, the highest secret technique of this medicine gate 'Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate', but it is driven by a special method, the more needles you have, the greater the cost, and when you get to the seventh needle, it is a trivial matter to lose your life, and if you are not careful, you may take your life."

As we were talking, the eldest girl came over and said coldly.

"With the help of the thirteen needles of the ghost gate, the eight veins of the strange meridians in your body have been opened, and you can learn one and a half tricks from the drunkard in the future, and you can have the ability to protect yourself."

Again, I thank you.

Then, she looked at the drunkard Qi and said, "I saved the people, what about the mermaids?" ”

"I didn't have that thing with me, and within a month, I delivered it to you by hand."

The eldest girl's face changed suddenly, her eyes were indifferent, the volcano in her body seemed to be about to erupt, her lips opened slightly, and a cold voice came out.

"You lied to me?"

"He shouldn't lie to you, the treasures of the treasure-holders usually don't carry them with them." A voice came from outside the door.

The mother-in-law walked in, glanced at a few of us, and persuaded the eldest girl: "Xi'er, if you want the mermaid beads, you are not in a hurry at this time, since he said that he will send it within a month, if he can't deliver it, I promise to give you his head." ”

The eldest girl replied, "Two." ”

"Huh?" My mother-in-law was stunned for a moment, then glanced at me, nodded and smiled: "Okay, the heads of both of them will be given to you." ”

Hearing this, I secretly scolded the drunkard in my heart, and I only hoped that he could really have shark beads.

Then, the eldest girl glanced at us, didn't say anything, and left directly.

"I heard a message when I went out, and I'll share it with you for free."

My mother-in-law smiled at us, aroused our interest, sat down on our buttocks, and continued.

"I heard that the body of the river god was found..."
