Chapter 206: Rejuvenation of the Wonderful Hand
You can easily tell the difference between a wolf and a dog - because temperament can't be pretended.
Qin Fen's group of people are very different from ordinary Langzhong medicine pickers, the village chief is worthy of being a 'master of lifting people', some knowledge, after welcoming everyone into the house to serve tea, they began to quietly knock on the side, listening to the path of Qin Fen and others.
Qin Fen prevaricated a few words casually, but he didn't want to say more-since ancient times, lies have been like this, and if you say one, you need to cover it up with another. He drank all the tea in the cup, coughed, and clapped his hands lightly:
"Uncle Village Chief, you don't have to dig into our identity. To be honest, there's nothing here to keep me waiting. This time I just happened to pass by, and when I met the kindness of my uncle, I planned to do my best to repay this kindness. ”
The old village chief listened to Qin Fen's words, his expression was a little nervous and stunned, and then he sighed and said gloomily:
"Then there are a few Lao. However, this matter is full of evil, if you can help, you can help, and if you can't help, you don't need to blame yourself......" Listening to the tone, he didn't have much hope for Qin Fen and the others.
Qin Fen said curiously:
"Dare to ask the ins and outs? I also want to ask the owner to explain it carefully. ”
The old village chief sighed and said:
"My Lijia Village was originally a hunter in the mountains, and I have lived here for generations, and the people are simple and the neighbors are harmonious. Although life in the mountains is poor, it is also quiet and worry-free, who knows that a month ago, it was a strange thing. ”
"I remember that night was exactly fifteen, and the moon was full, and the dogs in the village suddenly barked wildly, as if they had seen something frightened. Everyone got up and walked around the front yard of the back house, but they didn't find anything. ”
The next day was uneventful, but at night, when the moon was dark and the wind was high, the stupid dog hid in the den, whining and wailing from time to time. Then it was discovered that the livestock in the village had disappeared for no apparent reason, and it was getting worse. A few hunters in the village did not believe in evil, so they laid a lot of animal trapping stumbling, but it did not have much effect, only a handful of black and yellow hair and a little blood stain were found on one animal trap. ”
That night, there was a white-haired wind blowing in the village, the wind was howling, and it was mixed with whining ghosts crying, so frightened that the children did not dare to cry at night, and the adults were also frightened. Moreover, the hunters' houses that were in the traps were not disturbed at night, and some vomited and diarrhea, and in serious cases, they were attacked when they got up at night......"
The faces of several people changed slightly, just because when the old village chief finished the last word, the watch had already given a hint:
"You triggered the Hidden Mission: The Man Behind the Scenes. Why was the octogenarian woman attacked in the middle of the night? Why do hundreds of sows scream in the middle of the night? Why is the food in the kitchen so often hacked? Orion's door is knocked on every night, is it a human or a ghost? Who's really behind it? ”
"The mission objective is to find out who is behind the strange things in Lijia Village and solve them. Mission Time Limit: 48 hours, Mission Reward: Unknown. Do you want to accept this assignment? Yes/No. ”
Lijia Village has lived here for generations, and nothing strange has ever happened, and the abnormal situation started a month ago, coupled with the prompt of the previous main quest one, everyone naturally has a plan in their hearts. Qin Fen thought about it for a while, and then said categorically:
"I am willing to share my worries for the village chief in order to repay my kindness."
The old village chief said happily:
"You are very human at first glance, you must all have strange skills, and now you are willing to help, that is the best! Li Mouren thanked the other villagers here, and I am Yongming in Lijia Village, all of you are very kind! ”
Qin Fen waved his hand and said:
"Don't be in a hurry to say thank you first, as the saying goes, 'know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles'. Before finding out who is behind the scenes, you have to find out the enemy situation first. ”
The old village chief nodded, glanced at the old man who was silently smoking a dry cigarette next to him, and said:
"It's nature. Li Liang's eldest son, Li Dazhu, is one of the hunters in the village, who was attacked three days ago and has not yet recovered. ”
Everyone was stunned, no wonder the old man was frowning all the way, it turned out that his son happened to be one of the victims.
So everyone took their leave, and went out of the house, and asked about the past in turn in the village. Unfortunately, although five hunters were attacked during the night, the first three had no impression at all, except that they remembered that they were dizzy and they lay down. Another person seemed to be frightened stupidly, and fell directly into the dung pit that night, and the person was also upside down, and the gods couldn't say why.
After asking a circle of other villagers, the information obtained from their mouths was quite vague, some people said that it was the fox fairy in the mountain, some people said that it was an evil ghost out of the cage, in short, there were different opinions, and there was no consensus.
Next, Qin Fen asked the old man to lead a few people to the house in the east of the village to take a look at his injured son.
At this time, the farmhouse was naturally very simple, the house was still made of mud mixed with straw adobe bricks, a total of three thatched mud houses, surrounded by a fence outside, planted with peaches, persimmons and other fruit trees, as well as a corner of the vegetable field, and the old hen with the chicks leisurely peck.
Pushing open the fence and entering the yard, the old man shouted:
"Old woman, come out quickly, slaughter the old hen and stew chicken soup, and entertain distinguished guests in the evening!"
Out of the house came an old woman with gray hair, with a few tears in the corners of her eyes:
"All the animals in our house have been stolen by the chicken thief, and you still have to stew the last hen?" In the future, how can there be eggs for my son's body! ”
The old man's eyes widened, "If you are told to go, you will go, what nonsense!" ”
The old woman's tears poured out: "If you want to kill me, kill me, my son is still lying on the bed, Lang Zhong will only shake his head, what else is there to do in this day!" ”
Qin Fen naturally could see what an old hen that laid eggs represented, and hurriedly stood up to play a round:
"Uncle, let's go see your son first."
The old man stopped and hurriedly led everyone into the house.
The room was dimly lit and cramped, with only a dim butter lamp the size of a bean, and the air was filled with a strange smell of Chinese medicine and a faint stench. Nina couldn't stand it at first, and walked outside the house, as did several other women, and finally Qin Fen and the werewolf scientist were left in the house to see the disease.
Qin Fen frowned, walked to the bed in the inner room to take a closer look, and saw that the person lying on the bed was lying on his side, and his body was covered with a black quilt on this hot day, his hair was unkempt, his face was sallow, and his breath was like a gossamer, and occasionally he could let out a little moan from his nose and twitch a few times. One left arm was exposed, wrapped in a white cloth, but the edges were red with blood, and the wound smelled faintly rotting.
"How did you hurt so badly?" Qin Fen asked.
The old man sighed, there were already more crystal tears in his eyes, and the love of protecting the calf was the same in ancient and modern times. He wiped his eyes and said:
"It's fate. Originally, there were only three paw prints on his arm, and he specially rinsed it with spirits, who would have thought that the next day he would be groggy and have a fever in his head and couldn't get out of bed. I hurried to invite Lang Zhong, and after Lang Zhong came, he took a look, and after bandaging the wound, he didn't get better......"
At this time, there was really nothing to be seen in this appearance, so as not to worry the old man, he let the old man out of the house, and by the way used a wooden basin to get a basin of water. Then it's just a matter of standing by and watching the werewolf scientists deal with their wounds. Sebastian already had the title of a clinical master, and it was natural to deal with this wound.
He first melted salt into hot water, then uncovered the blood-stained linen cloth that had bandaged the wound, moistened it with clean gauze, and cleaned the rotting wound with blood scars. It stands to reason that the pain should be severe at this time, but the person on the bed is motionless, and it is obvious that the injury has long been numb.
As the dirt and blood scabs on the surface of the wound were wiped off, it turned out that the wound had already festered and drained pus, and what was even more shocking was that blisters of different sizes had appeared around it. Due to necrosis, the muscles in the wound are very swollen and stiff, and a large amount of yellow water is discharged. The surrounding skin is purple-black and necrotic at first glance. The werewolf scientist opened the injured man's eyelids again, but luckily his pupils did not dilate.
"This is a concurrent inflammation and ......infection caused by the attack of a fierce beast and the wound is not properly treated," the werewolf scientist whispered, "Carnivores usually have germs on their claws and teeth because they eat raw meat, for example, people in Africa are often bitten by leopards, hyenas and other animals, and people are temporarily fine, and then the wound becomes infected and inflamed, and then they die." There are hundreds of such cases every year. ”
Qin Fen nodded and said, "Can it be saved?" ”
"No problem, the germs have not spread to the whole body, and there is still time to treat them." In fact, if the recovery potion can be used on the plot characters, pour a bottle of potion to ensure that this guy wakes up alive.
As he spoke, he took out a scalpel, put on white gloves, and tied the arm of the big pillar tightly with a vasculature, and then quickly drew a cross in the festering wound with the scalpel, squeezing out the pus and blood inside, and receiving most of the bloody and unbearable blood, and only then did he stop when the blood flowing from the wound turned bright red. Then he took a knife to cut off the rotten and smelly rotten flesh around him, took out a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao prepared by himself and sprinkled it on the injured area, took out a needle, injected special antibiotics and antipyretics into the body, and then bandaged the wound properly, and it was over.
Half an hour later, the big pillar groaned in pain and finally woke up. As soon as he spoke, he buzzed:
"Mother, I'm hungry!"
"My son!" Before the words fell, the old woman rushed in with tears in her eyes.
