"There's no monster there, it's just a ferocious beast. Shen Wanquan's face was slightly gloomy, with an expression of who are you, and replied.

Xie Zhen smiled gently: "Uncle, don't get me wrong, Xie is not the kind of person who casually inquires into other people's secrets. ”

Introduce himself a bit.

continued: "The reason why I am curious is because I have seen someone with a similar injury, which is also scratched, the wound is black, and it continues to spread to the whole body, and the other party's condition is much more critical than Brother Shen."

The person who hurts people is also a monster, with a human face and an ape body, long arms and one legs, green skin and hard hair, good at change, like to eat people, and has infinite strength, and its name is 'Xiao'.

Dare to ask, is it this kind of monster that hurts Brother Shen? If so, then I can solve the poison on Brother Shen's body!"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned and suddenly turned their heads, and they all had a feeling that they were half ridiculous and half incredible.

The absurd thing is that they searched for the poison that the famous doctor couldn't solve, and the person who could solve it actually lived next door, which can be said to be far away in front of him;

It is unbelievable that Shen Lian ran into this person as soon as he woke up, there is really such a coincidence in the world, is this the legendary catastrophe that will have a blessing if you don't die?!

Even Shen Lian himself was stunned for a few seconds before coming back to his senses, and couldn't help but stare deeply at Xie Zhen, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"It turns out that the monster is called Xiao ......"

Shen Wanquan was extremely excited, his eyes were shining, and he said in ecstasy: "Is this true?

Xie Zhen smiled: "Brother Shen invited me to drink fine wine, then I will heal Brother Shen's injury in return, and bring pen and ink!"

Shen Wanquan acted quickly, prepared pen, ink, paper, inkstone, Xie Zhen picked up the pen and wrote something on the paper, and handed it to Shen Wanquan after writing.

"I'm tired of getting all the herbs on it. ”

Shen Wanquan glanced at it, immediately handed it to Fan Li, and said, "Go quickly!"

"Yes!"

Some of the Fan Li who were departed also suddenly became energetic and busy.

The willows and flowers are bright and another village, and the peaks and loops turn to laugh and talk.

In less than an hour, Fan Li found twenty-three medicinal materials on the paper.

Xie Zhen rolled up his sleeves, processed the various herbs, boiled them in boiling water, and worked for nearly three hours, and finally all the herbs turned into slimy black plasters, which cooled and applied to the four scratches.

"Huh......"

As soon as the black paste was applied to the wound, Shen Lian felt a burst of coolness, and after the coolness, there was a slight burning, pain and itching.

"This medicine is a home remedy that I got by accident. Topical application can be applied three times a day, and there will be burning pain and itching. Brother Shen, please hold back, don't tickle, I believe that after a few days of patience, you will see the effect. ”

Xie Zhen really knows how to do it, and he breaks through the mystery in one word.

Shen Lian wasn't even afraid of monsters, how could he not help this burning pain and itching, he smiled slightly, patted the wine jar, and said, "Brother Xie, you and I hit it off at first sight, how about continuing to drink?"

Xie Zhen couldn't ask for it, so he pulled a bench to the edge of the bed and sat down.

The two touched the jar and drank booze.

After drinking too much wine and talking a lot, Xie Zhen's origin quickly became clear.

This person was also born in a large family, read and write since childhood, has a good upbringing, at the age of fourteen, the family set a marriage for him, the other party girl is virtuous and decent, beautiful and good-looking, it can be said that the career is not worried, the family business is in sight, and life is smooth sailing.

Clinker, the sky is unpredictable, and a sudden catastrophe destroys his family.

"That year, I was walking in the mountains and suddenly met an injured white fox, and I couldn't bear it, so I took it home for treatment.

After the white fox recovered from his injuries, he stopped walking, and often accompanied me to study until dawn, and was extremely close to me.

After another year and a half, strange things suddenly happened in the city.

The water of the well suddenly became muddy and bloody, the poultry could speak, the fish in the river died in droves, and the crows haunted their heads.

The same is true outside the city, where all the crops die overnight and there is no harvest.

After that, there was an outbreak of the plague.

The city is precarious, people are dying every day, everyone is terrified, and there is nothing to be done.

At this moment, a white-bearded old man suddenly came, claiming to be a master of the world, with magical abilities, able to save the dead and eliminate the plague.

He began to sell a mysterious potion, which was miraculous, but whoever took it was truly free from all diseases and no longer suffered from the plague.

For a time, the whole city was in a sensation, and everyone worshiped the white-bearded old man as a god, built a luxurious mansion for him, and let him take what he wanted.

The strange thing is that this white-bearded old man does not ask for money, does not seek power, as long as children under the age of seven say that in order to refine that mysterious potion, there must be nine hundred and eighty-one boys and girls each to help.

So, those who had children at home gave them to the white-bearded old man in exchange for the mysterious potion that saved his life.

With a child, save the life of the whole family.

I have a younger brother, he was only five years old at the time, and he was also given to the white-bearded old man by his father, and I couldn't bear to be separated from my flesh and blood, so I sneaked into the white-bearded old man's mansion late one night to steal my brother.

But I never imagined that as soon as I entered that magnificent mansion, I would smell a strong smell of blood, and then, I ...... witnessed the scene of the white-bearded old man opening his blood basin and eating the child. ”

"Eat children?!" Shen Lian was stunned.

The white-bearded old man's mouth was wide open, the corners of his mouth extended behind his ears, and he opened his mouth to reveal two rows of jagged fangs, and in a few bites he ate a child into his stomach without spitting out the bones. ”

A deep look of horror appeared on Xie Zhen's face, those images had been deeply imprinted in his mind, and they were the source of nightmares every night, and he would never forget them.

"And then?"

"I was scared to death, my mind went blank, and when I came back to my senses, I was already running. But...... Unexpectedly, I ran to the house, and the white-bearded old man chased after him, and began to kill without saying a word.

My grandfather, my grandmother, and my parents, he killed them one by one, and then he trampled me under my feet, and while eating my mother, he said to me, 'You livestock, the meat is not delicious when you are too old, and it is better to be a child.' ’”

Shen Lian listened to his breathing.

"How did you survive?"

"I thought I was going to die, but just as the white-bearded monster was about to kill me, the white fox suddenly ran out, transformed into a young woman with a pure face, and fought with the white-bearded monster, which shocked the earth, the walls collapsed, the house collapsed, the fire broke out, and finally both disappeared. ”

"White Fox...... Saved you?!" Shen Lian touched his chin, I have heard a lot of legends about the white fox saving people, but most of them are stories made up by storytellers. It's the first time that Xie Zhen has experienced such a personal experience.

Xie Zhen sighed with emotion: "After that catastrophe, I lost all my relatives, my family was in the middle, and my relatives were also withdrawn.

I was disheartened, I didn't know what I was supposed to live for, and I was in a state of confusion for a while.

Later, I talked to a friend about this, but he didn't believe that there were monsters in the world, and he quoted scriptures to refute me.

It wasn't until then that I noticed that the people around me knew very little about yokai and were unguarded, and even those who knew about yokai deliberately avoided them, unwilling to talk more, and even paralyzed themselves to believe that there were no yokai in the world.

This incident made me realize how foolish the world is, and how weak the world is!

In front of terrifying monsters, people in the world are truly no different from livestock!"

Shen Lian's heart was shocked, he really underestimated Xie Zhen, he didn't expect that there were such sober people in the world, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"Everyone in the world is drunk and I wake up alone, this is the deepest loneliness. ”

Xie Zhen was deeply touched: "The white-bearded monster killed my whole family, but my life was saved by the white fox." I was ruined by a youkai, and I owe another youkai a life-saving grace. Many times, I feel lost and confused, and my heart is full of contradictions. I don't know if I should hate the youkai or be grateful to the youkai.

I want to learn about the yokai and figure out their secrets.

So, I sold my property, traveled all over the world, and gradually became more knowledgeable.

For example, Xiao who hurt Brother Shen, I once encountered it in a mountain village, it was really terrifying, and it was impossible for human beings to resist.

Fortunately, the mountain village knew Xiao very well and knew that it was good at change, so he set up a password and investigated it closely, so as not to give Xiao a chance to lurk.

Moreover, they were outnumbered, and they also had strong crossbows and arrows, set traps, and used fuel to set fires, which repeatedly repelled Xiao's attacks.

I also learned this home remedy from them. ”

Shen Lian suddenly came to his senses and asked Xie Zhen what characteristics and weaknesses he had met those monsters.

Xie Zhenzhi answered everything.

The two had a long talk and sang about the wine.

Before he knew it, two days passed, and Xie Zhen left the inn and continued his travels.

And the black color of Shen Lian's left chest wound has all faded, and a layer of pink new flesh has grown, and his body has basically recovered, faintly stronger than before.

"This poisoning has given my body a certain degree of immunity, and the next time I encounter Xiao, its toxicity should not be so fierce to me. Shen Lian pinched the muscles in his abdomen and smiled.

Subsequently, he went to visit Uncle Sun.

Sun Yuanxiang was lying on the bed, only a few days after he was out of danger, his wheezing was relatively weak, his face was colorless, and his broken wrist was wrapped in thick bandages, and sometimes blood would seep out, which was shocking.

"I was too careless, I didn't expect that monster to be so strong, what a brittle defeat! In retrospect, it was a fluke to be able to save this old life. Sun Yuanxiang is still scared, but this time he finally deeply understands how terrifying monsters are.

"Uncle, don't think about it so much, rest in peace. Shen Lian comforted him for a while, not wanting to disturb his recuperation, so he left without talking too much.

After that, Shen Lian went to see Shen Wanquan.

"Dad, what's the news over there in Snow Ridge City?" Shen Lian was most concerned about this.

Shen Wanquan handed over a few pieces of letterhead, sighed heavily, and said, "Before evacuating, I arranged some eyeliner in the city, this is a message from them, you can take a look." ”

Shen Lian took it and stared at it, his face gradually changed, and his expression became solemn.

"The Wang family, the Zheng family, the Bao family, if we are the Shen family, the four major families have all had an accident.

The Zheng family is destroyed!

The Bao family is destroyed!

The Wang family listened to your words, evacuated some of the core clansmen in advance, and preserved these people, and all those who did not evacuate died.

In addition, dozens of families have also been tragically killed.

In just a few days, more than 1,000 people were killed and injured in Snow Ridge City. ”

Shen Wanquan's eyes flashed with thick shock, his tone was extremely heavy, his hands trembled faintly, looking back, if it wasn't for Yu Manqiu's warning letter, if it wasn't for Shen Lian's might, the Shen family would be in such a miserable situation now, I can't imagine it.

Shen Lian groaned: "Well, it seems that this catastrophe is aimed at Snow Ridge City, not specifically for our Shen family, everyone has suffered from the fish pond." ”
