Chapter 7: Thunder mosquitoes
"Dad, has Uncle He come back?"
Li Lei was too tired all the way, so he lay down and slept until near dusk, Li Lei got up and rubbed his eyes and walked towards Li Xun in front of the table.
Li Xun turned his head and smiled: "Xiao Lei is up, your Uncle He hasn't come back yet?" But it should be soon, you go to wash your face first, and then we will go down to eat." ”
After a while, He Wentian walked in with a pale face.
Seeing this, Li Xun hurriedly asked, "Old He, what's wrong, what kind of poison is there?"
He Wentian's face immediately recovered and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's a small matter, I've asked the alchemist, it's not a big deal, he is already helping me refine the pill, or it will be fine in a few days." ”
"Great, Uncle He, I will be able to practice swords after he is well. Li Lei jumped up happily when he heard this.
He Wentian looked at Li Lei on the side, his face full of a kind smile.
He Wentian has never married a wife in his life, and after getting along during this time, Li Lei has already become his own children and grandchildren in He Wentian's heart.
After hearing Li Lei's words, he smiled and said: "Xiao Lei, do you want to cultivate so much? It's okay, anyway, I have to wait for the alchemist to refine the pill during this time, and I will teach you the mental method of Kaiyuan Sword Dueling from tomorrow, and your father will teach you swordsmanship in the future." ”
"Okay. ”
Although Li Lei was very happy.
But Li Xun's face when he looked at He Wentian was full of strangeness.
Because Li Xun saw a desperate look on He Wentian's face, since the beginning of the acquaintance, this expression has never appeared on He Wentian's face in the past few decades, although it is only fleeting, but it still has not escaped Li Xun's eyes.
After a simple meal, He Wentian and Li Xun took Li Lei shopping.
Li Lei, who grew up in a small mountain village, has never been to such a prosperous big city, although he has also passed through several small cities along the way.
It's a lot of fun while shopping.
After returning to the inn, Li Lei went to bed early.
"Bang bang bang. He Wentian's door rang.
He Wentian opened the door and saw Li Xun frowning and looking at him.
He Wentian couldn't help but stiffen when he saw Li Xun outside the door, and then immediately recovered and said with a smile: "Lao Li, what are you doing here to come to me without sleeping this big night?"
Li Xun still said with a serious face: "I'll come over and ask you something, go in and talk about it." ”
He Wentian closed the door after Li Xun came in, turned his head and smiled: "Lao Li, what do you have to ask, Xiao Lei is alone in the room, you can rest assured? ”
Li Xun sat there for a long time before he said, "Lao He, we have known each other for decades, can you hide anything from me? Tell me, what is the poison in your body?"
He Wentian, who was originally walking in the room, suddenly stopped, his body couldn't help but stiffen, and then he turned around, still with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Didn't I say everything? It's nothing, the alchemist said okay, let me go get the medicine in a few days, don't worry." ”
"Okay, tell me, what is the alchemist's surname? What is his name? What is the name of the shop? What poison are you in, and where is the pharmacy?"
Li Xun continued excitedly: "Lao He, is there anything we can't say between us? As soon as you come back, I will find that something is wrong with you, just say it." ”
After hearing Li Xun's words, He Wentian's face was full of bitterness, he raised his head and said with a wry smile: "Lao Li, don't you ask, okay? I don't expect that this body will be reduced to this point now?
Looking at He Wentian's painful look on his face, Li Xun's heart was not a good feeling.
For decades, my old brother has been smiling all day long, always so happy, and whenever he faces a setback, he will go to him, because only with him can I feel that peace.
"Lao He, even if I beg you, can I beg you? For so many years, every time I was disappointed, you told me on the side, don't be discouraged, don't be discouraged, there is still a chance to live, because of your words, I persevered, because I persevered, I Yujian Xiaolei, tell me, let's find a way together." ”
Li Xun stood up and grabbed He Wentian's shoulders and said excitedly.
He Wentian shook his head with a wry smile, and said after a long time: "Lao Li, you have traveled all over the continent, you should know about Thundermosquito, right?"
"What?Thundermosquito?" After hearing He Wentian's words, Li Xun stood up in shock, because Thundermosquito was too terrifying and powerful.
Thunder mosquito, looks similar to ordinary mosquitoes, but the body size and ordinary mosquitoes can not be the same, about the size of a fist, the whole body is blue, with thunder and lightning on the body, by sucking blood and survive, this demon beast is one of the top ten forbidden beasts in ancient times, so as to live in groups, ancient rumors, rather meet the sword god, defeated the thunder mosquito.
That is to say, even if he fights with the sword god, he is not willing to fight against the thunder mosquito.
And the thundermosquito has an even more terrifying place, that is, the larvae of the thundermosquito must be in the body of the living person, with the blood of the living person's body as a feed, and when the thundermosquito grows up, the body that is used as a feed will also instantly turn into a dry corpse.
Li Xun thought about the legends, and asked in shock: "Lao He, are you mistaken, the thunder mosquito is an ancient demon beast, which became extinct a long time ago, how can it exist, are you mistaken?"
He Wentian shook his head with a wry smile and said: "I also think I was mistaken, but the alchemist told me that my symptoms are exactly the same as those of the breeding of the Thunder Mosquito, the Thunder Mosquito has to undergo seven hundred and forty-nine transformations in the human body, and I will vomit blood once every time I transform, until after the forty-ninth time, that is, when I die, if I want to eliminate the Thunder Mosquito, I must be cremated with the living before the forty-ninth transformation." ”
"No, we still have hope, Lao He, do you remember that person? I took you to beg her, he must have a way, she is one of the ten elders of the Liuli Sect, she promised me back then, as long as I beg her, she will definitely help me. ”
He Wentian looked at Li Xun's excited appearance, and two old tears couldn't help but flow out of the corners of his eyes.
Because Li Xun was talking about no one else, it was another woman who fell in love with Li Xun back then, and Li Xun rejected her because of Qin Siqin.
Even if Li Xun's master died, Li Xun didn't ask her, and now.
He Wentian couldn't help but feel sour when he thought of this, and then said: "Lao Li, xiexie, but forget it, after so many years, don't I know you yet, let's not ask her, there is no cure for the Thundermosquito mosquito at all, it has been born with me, and it is impossible to treat." ”
After Li Xun heard He Wentian's words, he shook his head with a wry smile: "Lao He, listen to me, we will go to her tomorrow, if it was before, I wouldn't have begged her, but since I had Xiao Lei, I have found that sometimes some things don't have to be so persistent, it's okay, as long as she can cure you, even if you agree to her request, what's the matter." ”
