Chapter 62: Seeking Medicine
The two men who rushed over were so anxious that they shouted five or six times in a short time.
Ding Qin thought for a moment in his heart and ordered the whole team to stop advancing.
Since the people who came said that they were caravans, they should not have discovered their true identities. These two people rushed over in such a hurry, it should have something to do with the previous commodity trading.
In this case, if you deliberately avoid it, it is easy to make people suspicious.
Although he left Muromei City, in order to maintain consistency, Ding Qin still asked Han Zifei to contact him on his behalf. Before Han Zifei went over, Ding Qin asked him to ask about the situation as much as possible before making a plan.
After Han Zifei passed, Ding Qin and Feng Lei also followed. The two people who came dismounted in time, and their behavior was also polite, and after coming up, they said, "We are the envoys of Muromei City." This time, there is something important to discuss along the way, so please stay with the caravan. ”
Han Zifei said, "It's okay, just say it." We have also troubled your city with a lot of things, and if there is anything, you can just say it. ”
The two envoys saluted again, and one of the older said, "We're here just to verify one thing." In the list of goods you have sent out, there is a type called Nine Turns Green Snake Meat. I wonder if that's true?"
Han Zifei said, "That's right, we do have nine-turn green krait meat in our product list. ”
"Well, is it still there?" we asked the people in the city, but no one buys this snake meat. If it's still there, and hope to sell it to us, we'll pay a high price! Also, we hope to get some clues as to where the snake was hunted. ”
The nine-turn green ring snake was originally a big snake caught by Fat Dun. However, due to the poor appearance of this snake, it was not eaten at that time, and it was directly dried into jerky. But if it were to talk about the capture location, Ding Qin couldn't remember it clearly.
Han Zifei also immediately shifted the spearhead, "The Nine Turns Green Snake is what Ding Qin in our team obtained, you can ask him specifically." ”
After speaking, he nodded to Ding Qin.
Ding Qin took a few steps forward and said, "This snake was obtained by accident after we were lost. If you talk about the location, there was no detailed map or markings at that time, but I can't remember it exactly. ”
The envoy's face showed a look of obvious loss, "Is it? What is your bid? We can buy it for 10 times the price. ”
"Not necessarily. If it's what you need, it's okay for us to give it to you. Ding Qin smiled slightly, beckoned, called someone over, and told him to go and get snake meat.
However, he quickly asked again, "However, this snake meat is just meat, why did the two of you come so nervously?"
The envoy hesitated for a moment, but finally made up his mind and said, "We are also entrusted by the city lord. This snake meat is necessary for us to make an antidote, but it has never been caught. I happened to see you on your list today, so I immediately chased after it, for fear of losing this opportunity. ”
"Antidote?" After the first two characters related to the Five Poison Island, Ding Qin is now very sensitive to poison. "As far as I know, the best medicinal properties of the nine-turn green ring snake are snake gall bladder, snake blood and snake scales, and the whole body is the worst snake meat. We have the first three on our list, so why do you only need snake meat?"
Before waiting for the other party to answer, Ding Qin spoke again, "Could it be that some of you have been poisoned and are now blind, and you can only see two bright spots like the moon?"
As soon as he said this, the two envoys involuntarily trembled slightly. From this performance, Ding Qin knew that he was right.
To be exact, it was the bone soul who said it.
The bone soul said that when the nine-turn green ring snake is used in medicine, there is only one recipe for using snake meat. This antidote is also used to relieve a strange poison, which is called Erquan Yingyue.
And Erquan Yingyue is the housekeeping poison of the Yang family on the Five Poison Island.
Those who are poisoned by the two springs and the moon have lost their eyesight, and only two bright spots are left in front of them, just like two moons. The onset of the poison is slow, and by the time you lose your sight, you may have been poisoned for more than a year.
The old envoy nodded first, "Mr. Miraculous Power! Mr. has such a skill, and he hopes to go back to the city with us once and help us treat the old city lord!"
When the two envoys said this, Ding Qin regretted that he had just talked too much. Originally, he had already left the city safely, and just now he just had to serve the snake meat and leave directly. In this way, he was asked to return to the city.
Moreover, it is to go back to detoxify the old city lord. Although the old city lord can't see it now, he must know about the attack on Fangzhu City. Moreover, it is not good to say that the people who Ding Qin and Feng Lei have fought are the cadres next to the old city lord.
In this way, they have another layer of risk.
Another key is that the poison to be detoxified is the second spring reflecting the moon. Erquan Yingyue is the poison of the Yang family on the Five Poison Island. Ding Qin and the others have already had indirect conflicts with the people of the Chen Wei family on the Five Poison Islands one after another. If there is information communication between the people on the Five Poison Islands, then Ding Qin's situation is even worse.
Seeing that Ding Qin had been thinking, the envoy said, "This brother, please don't hesitate, as long as we can save the city lord, the money and other materials of our Mumei City, as long as we can do it, we will definitely give it away!"
Ding Qin saw that they misunderstood him a little, and said, "Two, maybe you think too much." I'm not thinking about compensation. I just don't quite understand it,"
He naturally made an excuse for himself, "Even if you know that you want to use the snake meat of the Nine Turns Green Snake for medicine, since someone has given you advice, why do you want me to help?"
The envoy said, "Brother doesn't know. The prescription we received was also obtained half a year ago after saving a man who was lost in the desert. However, he said that this prescription is not complete, and it can only delay the further deterioration of the poisoning. Since my brother knows about this strange poison, he must have a way, and I hope to wait with me to go back!"
Ding Qin was extremely hesitant now. Because the bone soul just said that there is only one antidote formula for the poison of Erquan Yingyue, and there is no medicine to delay the toxicity. If it is really to delay the toxicity, then it must be that the antidote dose is not enough.
In other words, the person they saved knew the recipe for the antidote. However, he didn't want the old city lord to regain his sight.
Among them, I am afraid that there are many internal contradictions.
Precisely, the bone soul knew the antidote formula for the poison of Erquan Yingyue. He also has a certain degree of certainty about the removal of this poison.
If he didn't save the old city lord, Ding Qin couldn't help it, and if he saved the old city lord, it was easy for the whole team to get into trouble.
Ding Qin looked at Feng Lei and then at Han Zifei. Both of them said, "You decide." ”
The two envoys knelt down in unison at this moment, "Brother, master, I hope to save the life of the old city lord!"
Ding Qin really couldn't bear to see others begging for him. He let out a long sigh, "That's it." I let my team go first. I'll go back with you. But can the two envoys guarantee that no matter what happens, they will be able to send me back safely?"
The two envoys looked at each other and nodded. "If we save the old city lord, not only will we be sent back safely, but even if we safely escort the entire team out of the desert, we can do it!"
"That's not necessary. Ding Qin smiled bitterly, "We can go by ourselves." I have one more condition. I went into the city this time because I didn't want to show my true face. I'll always wear a mask, and I hope you can explain it to the lord. ”
The envoy did not hesitate in the slightest this time, "There is no problem with this! Every master has his own temper. ”
Ding Qin nodded, "Okay, then I'll go with you." Zifei, Feng Lei, you go first. When I go out of the city, I will come in this direction to drive you out. ”
"Shall I accompany you?" Feng Lei took two steps forward, "At least two people will also take care of it." ”
Ding Qin shook his head and said, "No, I'll go by myself." There are many people. You go first. With two envoys guaranteeing that nothing would happen. ”
"But......" Feng Lei stopped talking and looked at the two envoys again, "they are only envoys." ”
"They are the envoys of the city lord. Ding Qin said, "Unless, the city lord's words don't work." And you know, I'm not a person who can't help people when they see death, and I can't bear not to help others within my means. Just let me go. Come, give me the flesh of the snake. ”
Ding Qin said as he put the Tianxing hemp mask he had taken from the Lone Star Cave on his head. After thinking about it again, he took out the pony clip he had obtained during the battle of Fangzhucheng and put it inside his clothes.
When he was ready, he said to the two envoys, "Let's go back to the city." However, the poison of Erquan Yingyue is a high-grade poison, and I am not 100% sure whether it can be successfully detoxified. I would like to make this point clear in advance, and you should also be prepared. ”
The two envoys nodded in understanding. After that, Ding Qin explained a few more words to Feng Lei, and together with the envoy, he rode a fast horse to Muromei City.
Seeing Ding Qin's back getting farther and farther away, Feng Lei couldn't help but sigh lightly, "Alas." This kid, say you're nosy, but you're well-intentioned. Say that you don't know the dangers of the world when you are involved, and you can imagine it everywhere. If you have another 30 years, you will definitely be a hero in the world. However, I don't know if you can wait until then. ”
Han Zifei also stepped forward and said, "Adjutant General, what about us?"
Feng Lei said, "You lead a large army forward. I led a small team to hide on the outside of the Murome Oasis, ready to meet him at any time. Remember, take the fireworks as the number. If a red firework is lit, it means that we are out of danger. If two are ignited, we have casualties. If three are ignited, the situation is critical. No matter how far you go, you must come back. ”
Han Zifei said, "Then why don't we just stand by on the spot?"
Feng Lei shook his head, "No." The large army did not move in place, indicating that they were afraid that Ding Qin would not be able to return. This instead hints that there are hidden things in Mumeicheng and Ding Qin. Go, you must go, even if you walk slowly. ”
He looked in the direction of Ding Qin again, and Ding Qin's figure had already disappeared behind the sand dunes. "Let's split up now. Ding Qin, I hope you are safe. ”
