Chapter 24: The Demon Soldiers of Loulan
"Undead, no...... Beasts? How did you become humanoid? I asked Li Qingzhao in a whisper, Erhu did say that the owner of his family was "beaten out of human form", which should refer to the queen of the deer, that is, a woman on the stone platform in front of him.
Li Qingzhao ignored me, but turned to Erhu: "You go out first, I have my own way to save her." β
"Thank you, Immortals!" Although the stone house has no windows, there is a ventilation hole as big as a basin above the roof, and a faint pillar of light hits down, just falling on the smooth and beautiful back of the queen deer.
I activated the Qi Observation Technique, although the Deer Queen turned into a human form, her complexion was still the green of the undead, but it was very weak, she seemed to hear our voices, her breath trembled slightly, and she seemed a little restless.
Li Qingzhao walked over, sat on the edge of the stone platform, pulled one of the hand of the deer queen, closed his eyes and checked the pulse.
"You're going to do this?" I smiled and said, because I have studied Chinese medicine, I probably know what is going on with the pulse diagnosis - it is too difficult, there are basically few people in modern times who can inherit the pulse diagnosis technique of traditional Chinese medicine, which requires the fingertips to be extremely sensitive to the pulse beating, and also needs to be different from ordinary people's concentration and mental power, it is said that a very good old Chinese medicine doctor, if you do not perfunctory pulse diagnosis, you can diagnose up to 30 people a day, no matter how many people, the old Chinese medicine will be weak in energy, can not effectively diagnose and treat.
"Shh Li Qingzhao pressed his left hand to his lips and motioned for me not to squeak.
I stood quietly in place, but my eyes were not idle, looking at the deer queen from head to toe, curvy, which can be regarded as the best figure, but I don't know what her appearance is, I can only see her hair, but I can't see her face.
About half a minute later, Li Qingzhao's hand left Queen Deer's wrist and said softly: "Xu'er's hand is too ruthless, and the injury is much more serious than I imagined." β
"Can it be healed by True Qi?" I asked this because the Queen of the Deer was injured by True Qi, and the so-called bell must be tied to the bell person, so I subconsciously felt that Li Qingzhao would use True Qi to treat her.
Li Qingzhao shook his head: "Her injuries are mainly due to the impact of Xu Er's true qi on her organs, and the damage is serious, although she repaired some by herself, but there is still a lot of blood, and she has to go through surgery to discharge the residual blood from the body. β
I nodded, "Understood, we have to go into the operating room." Will she be able to make it down the hill? β
"With her high-level purple qi realm, it is not difficult to protect herself, and she can hold on for a long time, but her organs are fragile and she can't stand the bumps on the mountain road, do you have any good solutions?" Li Qingzhao asked me instead.
I thought about it, since I can't bump, then I can only use the way of air transportation, helicopters, or hot air balloons, hot air balloons are difficult to find, you can go down the mountain to hire helicopters.
"Layman, please send her to the shore of Crescent Lake, and I'll go down the mountain to find the helicopter." I said, Li Qingzhao nodded, and told me to be careful.
I carried two backpacks, out of the stone house, out of the green sky, the same way back, not far away, I saw the eldest brother and the couple, the eldest brother and the couple man squatting beside the couple girl, the couple girl took off one of the shoes, the ankle was red and swollen, as if it had been bitten by some insect.
"What's wrong?" I asked, because I was fighting side by side with the couple and dealing with mountain ghosts together, so I had a good impression of them.
"I was bitten by a snowy mountain centipede." The eldest brother frowned.
The snow-capped centipede, I haven't heard of it, it should be a poisonous insect.
"Is it serious?" I asked.
"I need to inject serum," the couple man said, "I have contacted my friends at Yamashita and asked them to send it by helicopter, but it will take two hours at the earliest, and I am afraid that Xiao Yi will ...... her."
The couple man said, his eyes moistened.
"How long does it last?" I whispered to my eldest brother, he knew the name of the poisonous insect, and he should also know the consequences of being bitten.
The eldest brother turned his back and quietly stretched out a finger to me, meaning an hour.
"How long has it been bitten?" I asked again.
"In less than ten minutes."
That night, if you have just been bitten, you can also use the mouth to suck blood to reduce the intake of toxins, ten minutes, the toxins have flowed into the heart with the blood, and are pumped to all organs throughout the body, only by relying on the antidote.
Look at that Xiao Yi again, her face is pale, her lips are purple, her eyes are hollow, and there are obvious symptoms of poisoning, I leaned down and touched her forehead, it was cold, this is not a thermotoxin, it is difficult to deal with it, but it is not impossible.
I thought about it for a moment and turned to the couple man: "You said just now that you have sent a helicopter over?" β
The couple man held Xiao Yi's hand and nodded in disappointment.
"When the time comes, can you help me transport a wounded person out?" I asked with a smile.
The eldest brother pulled my sleeve and said in a low voice: "Brother, at this time, what are you talking about!" β
The couple man turned his head to me and glared angrily.
"Perhaps, I have a way to help you." I still laughed.
"Oh? Do you have an antidote? The eldest brother asked in surprise.
I shook my head, "No, but I can go and ask for you, wait a minute." β
After saying that, I went back to the green sky and found the second tiger.
"Why are you back again?" Erhu asked.
"Brother Erhu, do you know the 'Snow Mountain Centipede'?" I asked.
"Yes."
"If a human being is bitten by a centipede in the snowy mountains, how can it be treated?"
Erhu thought for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know, but I can help you ask." β
"Then go ahead, the sooner the better," I said, "and if you can help me with this, then your master's injuries will be treated more quickly." β
As soon as Erhu heard this, he immediately became energetic and nodded again and again: "Okay, okay, I'll ask right away!" β
I came to the stone house again, through the curtain, and informed the inside of the "transaction" just now, Li Qingzhao said, that dare is very good, she is now helping the deer queen to regulate her breath, half an hour later, and then turn to the crescent lake.
I sat outside the stone house and waited, and after only five minutes, the second tiger ran back, and on the top of his head, there was a cyan centipede, so long, thirty centimeters in size, quite scary!
"This is the Snow Mountain Centipede?" I asked.
Without waiting for the second tiger to speak, the centipede nodded to himself.
ββ¦β¦ I'm not asking for it, I'm in need of an antidote. I smiled wryly, what is the use of arresting the perpetrator, do you want me to sentence him to ten years in prison?
The second tiger said: "It said it can bite and heal." β
"Really?" I squinted and stared into the eyes of the centipede, which had a lot of eyes on its head.
The big centipede nodded again, the undead are the masters of the Ghost Valley, it is estimated that the centipede will not deceive the second tiger, and the second tiger is even more unlikely to fool me.
I stretched out my hand and pressed it on the top of Erhu's head: "Then I'm sorry for you to come with me." β
The centipede crawled up my arm, into my sleeve, dozens of legs, crawling on my skin, like tickling, quite comfortable.
I took the big centipede out of the green sky and ran to the eldest brother and the couple, Xiao Yi's complexion looked even worse, and the red gas above his head was like a flame about to be extinguished.
"Coming back so soon?" The look in my husband was a little weird.
ββ¦β¦ Isn't it good that I came back to the block? I frowned.
"No, no," the couple man smiled wryly, "Can it be cured?" β
"I can't guarantee it, but a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, you can try," I didn't say to death, "can you two avoid it?" β
"Why avoid it, she's my girlfriend." The couple man frowned.
The more I look at this kid, the more weird I feel, what's going on?
The eldest brother began to persuade the couple man: "Let's avoid it first, Chen Yang's ability, you also saw it when you came, don't worry." β
He was referring to the battle in which we annihilated all the mountain ghosts, but in fact, it mainly relied on Xue Sakura.
The couple man looked at me, and then at Xiao Yi, who was leaning against the tree with his eyes closed, and then turned around with his eldest brother.
I squatted down, pinched Xiao Yi's ankle with my right hand, shook my wrist, and signaled that the centipede could come out, this centipede is not an undead race, but an insect in the human world, it is an entity, the eldest brother and the couple man can see it, if I release it directly, it is estimated that it will scare them, and, looking at the attitude of the couple man, it seems that Xiao Yi will not take this risk to accept this kind of "poison against poison" treatment method.
The arm began to itch again, the snow mountain centipede drilled out of my cuff, but only poked out its head, although it has many eyes, but its eyesight does not seem to be very good, twisting its head to look at it for a long time, and I didn't find the position of Xiaoyi's ankle, I really couldn't stand it, so I grabbed its head out and pressed it on the red and swollen part of Xiaoyi's ankle - it was not only red and swollen, but some purple and even blackened.
The centipede found the wound, directly stretched out two pincer-like mouthparts, clamped into Xiao Yi's skin, and Ju is began to suck blood!
Suck it so fast, Xiao Yi's swollen place was held down at the speed of his eyes, this is not scientific, it is swollen in it, but it is not because of bruising.
But when I got closer and observed carefully, I found that the snow mountain centipede was not simply sucking blood, it was injecting a stream of transparent liquid into Xiao Yi's body, injecting a strand, and then sucking a big mouthful, which was equivalent to local "dialysis".
Soon, Xiao Yi's foot returned to its original state, a very beautiful little foot, the centipede opened its mouth, and there were only two small holes left at the ankle.
"Finished?" I asked the centipede suspiciously, and it nodded, crawled out of my cuffs, and the body of the thing, which was more than twice as thick, like a rolling pin, burrowed into the grass next to it, and quickly disappeared.
"Thank you!" I shouted.
The eldest brother and the couple man came back when they heard the sound and looked at Xiao Yi's ankle in surprise.
"Are you alright?" The couple man asked.
I was afraid that if I said yes, he would let the helicopter go back, so I frowned and said, "It's just a preliminary relief of symptoms, and we have to be transported to the mountain for treatment as soon as possible." β
"You mean to say she's saved?" The couple man's eyes widened.
I pretended to nod deeply: "There must be a rescue." β
Clinker, a trace of murder flashed in the eyes of the couple man, and he angrily pulled out a knife from his waist: "I can't let her live!" β
As he spoke, he stabbed Xiao Yi in the chest, who was still unconscious.
The eldest brother shouted "Ah", but he was too far away to stop, but the man's movements seemed too slow to me, and I even wanted to light a cigarette and stop him firstβobviously it was impossibleβI raised my foot and kicked him on the wrist, and kicked the knife away, and the knife spun around in the air a few times, and landed on a summer tree.
"What are you doing?" I frowned and said, "What did you do to kill people?" β
The couple man clutched his wrists and looked at me fiercely, he knew that he was no match for me, and if the raid failed, there would be no second chance.
"Look! Plane! The couple man suddenly pointed to the air behind me, and when he was done, he turned around and ran.
Naturally, I wouldn't have fallen for this trick, but I didn't chase him either, and he couldn't escape from the Ghost Valley alone.
"What's going on?" I asked Big Brother.
The eldest brother looked confused: "I don't know." β
"What the hell are these two doing?" I took out a cigarette, handed it to my eldest brother, and lit it myself.
The eldest brother was still a little panicked, and took two puffs of cigarette before he began to recall.
The eldest brother's surname is Xu, his name is Xu Xingye, his home is in Lanzhou, three days ago, the couple claimed to be a couple from the capital, found Xu Xingye through a friend, and said that they wanted to go up the mountain to find Loulan treasure, Brother Xu specialized in this, so he naturally agreed, and the two sides negotiated a good price, seven days, 100,000 yuan, vehicles, equipment, supplies, etc., Xu Xingye was all-inclusive, after two days of preparation, in the mountain last night, nothing special.
"If you want to say something special," Xu Xingye recalled, "I feel that this Xiao Wang is very attentive to Xiao Yi, and he cares for him along the way, but Xiao Yi is not too cold to Xiao Wang, didn't we spend the night in the mountain pass last night, they also slept in two tents separately, and they didn't sleep together, which is a bit strange." β
It seems that I can't get any useful clues from Xu Xingye, but what I care about is not this, but when the helicopter will come.
"Whose helicopter is it, is it Xiao Wang?" I asked Big Brother.
"Yes."
"By satellite phone?" I asked again, there must be no mobile phone signal here, Xu Xingye nodded.
"Where's the satellite phone?"
Xu Xingye opened a backpack on the ground and took out the phone.
"That's it?"
"That's it."
That's easy, even if that Xiao Wang escapes, he won't contact the helicopter again and let them go back.
I "confiscated" the satellite phone, turned to Xiao Yi's side, probed the snort, and silently heartbeat - not to touch the heart, but to touch the artery in the neck, everything was normal, I pressed her with my thumb, and pressed it rhythmically, but she still didn't wake up, it may be that the brain was invaded by toxins before, and it hasn't eased up.
I suddenly remembered that now that I am in the middle level of blue qi, can I use my true qi to cure diseases and save people? Because Xue Ying and Su'er can inject true qi into my body, when the true qi enters, it feels as if the body has been hit by high-voltage electricity, which may be used as a rescue measure.
Thinking of this, I grabbed one of Xiao Yi's hands, interlocked my fingers, and tried to lift a part of the true qi from the sea of dantian qi and transport it to the palm of my right hand, now my control of the true qi is very pure, almost instantaneous, but no matter how hard I try, I want to send the true qi in, but I can't do it, the true qi is in the palm of my hand, as if I have encountered a bottleneck, and I can't get out.
This made me suffocate, my palms were full of sweat, and I tried again and again, just when I was about to give up, I felt Xiao Yi's hand move, I turned my head to look at her face, she had opened her eyes, and frowned at me: "Why are you holding my hand?" β
I quickly withdrew my hand: "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm here to help you heal your injuries." β
"What injury?" Xiao Yi seemed to have an amnesiac expression, and after thinking for a while, it suddenly dawned on him, "Ah! I was bitten by a centipede! β
After saying that, she quickly looked at her ankles, and there were only two small holes left.
"Huh? The antidote was delivered? Xiao Yi was surprised.
"No," Xu Xingye said with a smile, "It was Chen Yang who rescued you, and the helicopter hasn't arrived yet." β
"Oh, thank you," Xiao Yi smiled at me, and turned her head to look around, "What about Wang Kai?" β
He ......, "Big brother is hesitant and looks at me."
"What is the relationship between you and Wang Kai?" I sat on the grass, hugged my knees, and had a "long talk" with Xiao Yi.
"He's my boyfriend?"
"Then why did he put you to death?" I sneered.
Xiao Yi opened her mouth wide in surprise: "How is it possible?!" β
I pointed to the knife on the tree: "He wanted to kill you just now, I suspect that you were bitten by a centipede before, and it was also a good thing for him to do it." β
Xiao Yi looked at Xu Xingye: "Brother Xu? It's true? β
Lao Xu hugged his shoulders and nodded solemnly.
"I'm going to grass his Wang Kai!" Xiao Yi directly swore words, "Eating things inside and out, it's in vain that my father is so good to him!" How dare you beat my idea! β
Under my persuasion, Xiao Yi finally told the truth.
Xiaoyi's name is Qin Xiaoyi, the Qin family is a big family in the capital, his father's Qin Group, the assets are at least not less than Huang Shulang in Shengjing, a large enterprise with a scale of 10 billion, and Qin Xiaoyi is the only daughter of the Qin family, she is still beautiful, everyone is beautiful, she has a good temperament, and there are many suitors, but Qin Xiaoyi's father took a fancy to a low-level small staff in the group, and he had to recruit him as a son-in-law.
"This little clerk is Wang Kai," Qin Xiaoyi said in a low voice, "Although he looks quite talented, I heard from his colleagues that this kid is very attentive, and he has changed four girlfriends in less than half a year after coming to work in our Qin Group, and she specially picks rich girls to start, in the name of dating, cheats a lot of money, and also makes a girl's belly bigger, so I don't have a good impression of Wang Kai at all." β
"Then why don't you tell your dad?" I frowned and asked, how did this kind of scum get into the eyes of my father-in-law?
"Because my dad is superstitious! Wang Kai is the candidate he found a fortune teller to calculate, saying that this person can be in charge of the Qin Group in the future, and will be good to me, well, it is true that he is good to me, but can't I see that what he really cares about is my family's money? And I know that he has always been obsessed with his first girlfriend, and the two of them often date behind my back, and I have evidence in my hands, so I don't bother to tell it! β
"So," I looked at Xu Xingye, "Wang Kai relied on himself to make sure that Lao Qin would let him take charge of the Qin Group, and then he planned to let you die?" β
"Not exactly," Qin Xiaoyi pouted, "I'm dead, what's in it for him?" Maybe my dad will change his mind when stimulated? β
"Then why did he ...... What is the solution? I asked, puzzled.
"Hehe," Qin Xiaoyi sneered, "Because last month, I clearly told him that I would not let his conspiracy succeed, and before the end of the year, he would definitely persuade my dad to break up with him, and even force him to die, he may be afraid of losing this opportunity to be a fast son-in-law of Chenglong, so he will jump over the wall in a hurry, and want to kill me first, and then find a way to take over my dad's group, right?" β
I nodded, this explanation is reasonable, but it's still a bit too risky, if it is my position in Chairman Qin, if my only daughter dies, then what else do I have to do, realize the company, do charity, and then become a monk, but forget it all my life.
"Wait until I get this kid back, see what my dad says!" Qin Xiaoyi said fiercely.
"Do you want to be caught? I'll get you back. I said.
Qin Xiaoyi thought for a moment: "He wanted to kill me with that hand just now?" β
"Right hand." I say that normal right-handed people will naturally hold a knife in their right hand.
"Then I'll cut off one of his right hands first!" Xiao Yi narrowed her eyes, it was quite ruthless, but I think it is reasonable.
"Wait a minute." I got up, walked to the green sky, found Erhu, and asked it to help me arrest people, Erhu said yes, and soon sent a force of more than 200 people to search for Wang Kai all over the valley.
Ten minutes later, Wang Kai was carried in front of us by a big deer, this deer is the same as the snow mountain centipede, it is also a physical deer, but its qi is indeed green - it is also a high-grade deer, it can be transformed into the form of a human animal, whether it is a relative of the queen, I don't know.
After thanking Dalu, I threw Wang Kai on the ground, his hands and feet were tied, and he was trembling.
"Are you going to cut him?" I asked.
"Cut, I'm not reluctant at all." Qin Xiaoyi sneered.
"Don't! Don't kill me! Xiao Yi, don't listen to his nonsense! Wang Kai thought I was going to "cut him", and quickly knelt on the ground to plead for mercy.
I pulled out Jing Zhongyue from my waist, cut the ropes of Wang Kai's hands and feet, this thing actually wanted to run, but was stopped by the big deer, kicked back, lying on the ground, I stepped forward, stepped on Wang Kai's right hand, and silently thought in my heart: borrow a knife to use.
Zhao virgin answered, my hand became heavy, this time it is a seemingly ordinary short-handled knife, the blade and the handle length is about the same, it should be "Pu knife", it is the kind that those reckless heroes in the Water Margin are used to, no matter what kind of knife, I raised it, and in Wang Kai's scream, cut it down.
"Ahh I have something to say! Wang Kai shouted.
Burst! I slashed on the grass, not because I wanted to spare him, but because I didn't see the right position, I didn't cut it, but I pretended to be merciful, turned my head around, and said indifferently, "What else do you have to say?" β
"I know where the real entrance to Loulan's treasure is!" Wang Kai said tremblingly.
"Talk nonsense!" I pouted, "If you knew, you would have dug it up a long time ago, right?" β
So how could a person who loves money give up the treasure of Loulan?
With that, I raised the knife and prepared to try again, this knife is not very good.
"I really know!" Wang Kai shouted like a pig, "Chen Yang, you will kill me!" After finding the treasure, the Loulan Demon Soldiers will belong to you, and the treasure will be divided into half with me, okay? β
I slowly put down the Pu knife and squinted at Wang Kai.
"Loulan Demon Soldiers? What's that? β
