Chapter Eighty-Three: Octagonal Questioning
Before the two of them could elaborate on the reason for their visit, they suddenly heard the noise at the entrance of the village, as if a large group of people had arrived, Tang Xiao's heart sank, and he secretly thought that this gang of villains had come to help again.
Tang Xiao didn't care about it, called Ye Suiyun to help Yao Jinghu who fell to the ground, checked it for a while, and said: "Fortunately, this person didn't suffer internal injuries, but just lost too much blood, and the fight was too ruthless." "Let's use two needles to gently twist Yao Jinghu's left and right forehead angles 'silk bamboo holes'. Yao Jinghu's eyelids twitched, he woke up, saw the two of them, and said strangely: "I'm not dead yet?" Who are you? Tang Xiao rushed forward and said: "We are the villagers here, he is my brother, you were knocked out just now." Ye Suiyun knew that Tang Xiao didn't want to reveal his identity, and now that he was notorious, he really had to be cautious.
Yao Jinghu suddenly remembered something, broke away from Ye Suiyun with his body, and shouted, "A swarm of bees... As soon as the shout came out, he was dumbfounded, because he saw the death of the four thieves in the courtyard who had been killed in different forms. The scene in front of him was too different from before he was injured and unconscious, Yao Jinghu was at a loss, and just said: "They... They.. β
Tang smiled: "Just now, someone rushed in and killed the four wicked people and left. Yao Jinghu asked, "What does that person look like?" Tang Xiao thought for a while and said, "It's a white-bearded old man." She thought that most of the masters were older people, otherwise it would be difficult to be trusted, and the more people had to think elsewhere, the more they would not suspect Ye Suiyun. Yao Jinghu had just woken up, and he was seriously injured and weak, so he didn't doubt it much.
At this time, someone outside the door shouted, "Brother Yao, where are you?" When Yao Jinghu heard this, he hurriedly said, "Brother Bai, I'm here." The door was kicked open, and a young junior rushed in with a single knife in his hand, and hurriedly supported Yao Jinghu and said: "Brother Yao, fortunately I arrived in time, and the feathers of the swarming bees outside were killed by the brothers I brought." Seeing that Yao Jinghu was seriously injured, he said angrily: "I told you that this matter was deceitful, but if you didn't listen, you will definitely come from the net." Yao Jinghu said: "Fei Fei's illness can't be delayed any longer, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I can't let it go." β
Brother Bai said: "Dong Long just took advantage of your idea and saw that you would definitely come." Yao Jinghu nodded, and then said hatefully: "It's a pity that the villagers in Peng Village were all killed." Brother Bai was also sad and indignant, and asked about Tang Ye and the others, Yao Jinghu said that they were surviving villagers, and introduced them a little, this white brother's name is Bai Suntai, and he is Yao Jinghu's sworn brother.
Bai Suntai asked suspiciously, "How did your brother and sister escape the bee thief slaughtering the village?" Tang Xiao pointed back to the house and said, "We only escaped by hiding in the haystack, but unfortunately grandpa was finally killed." Seeing that there were still tears on her cheeks, and Ye Suiyun's hair and clothes were stained with a lot of dry grass, Mrs. Bai Sun immediately believed it in her heart. Seeing that a swarm of bees died on the spot, she couldn't help but have a question, Yao Jinghu said: "This girl said that it was an old man who killed them and left." β
Bai Sun Tai stepped forward to take a closer look, pondered for a long time, stood up and said with surprise on his face: "I know this black-winged bee, not a mediocre hand, but look at his death, there is no injury or blood, and there is no palm print on his body, it seems that he was shocked to death." Yao Jinghu nodded and said strangely: "I also know this person, I heard that he is the strongest martial artist in a swarm of bees." He was the one who knocked me unconscious just now, and his skills are really not weak. β
Bai Suntai walked to the door, looked left and right, and reached out to pull out a long nail from the corpse of the slender-waisted bee, and the body of the slender-waisted bee immediately fell to the ground. Bai Sun Tai said: "Brother Yao, look, I saw it outside just now, and the queen bee also has the same thing inserted in her body. As far as I know, this 'bee needle nail' is highly poisonous, and it is a unique secret weapon of a swarm of bees. β
Yao Jinghu thought for a moment and said movingly: "Could it be that when they sent out the hidden weapon, they were forced back by internal force, and the strength was so strong that they nailed the thin-waisted bee to the door panel?" After speaking, Yao Jinghu couldn't help but show a trace of fear. Bai Suntai nodded silently, and only said after a while: "The skill of this person is really incredible, if I don't see it with my own eyes, I will never believe in the worldγγγγγ "I can't go on.
Yao Jinghu was relieved: "Fortunately, in the current situation, this person is a friend or foe, so don't worry too much." Bai Sun Tai smiled slightly, and turned to Ye Tang and the others: "When I first arrived, I suspected that you two killed the bee thief, but now it seems that I am too careful." "The implication is that with the age of the two of you, even if you practice from your mother's womb, you can't be a murderer.
Tang Xiaohu asked, "Listening to your words, is there anyone in the family who is seriously ill?" Yao Jinghu was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "It's my junior sister." Bai Suntai added: "She is also Brother Yao's fiancΓ©e, if it weren't for that, how could he come here alone to seek medical treatment." Yao Jinghu showed a shy smile.
Tang smiled: "The little girl has learned some skills in treating diseases and saving people, if you can trust it, how about taking me to see the patient?" Yao Bai and the others saw that she was too young, and they didn't believe it, and they both thought that there was no way to deal with how experienced Langzhong was nearby, and what could a little girl do. Ye Suiyun saw it in his eyes, his stomach was funny, and he thought that these two people didn't know Mount Tai, and the best doctor in the world didn't want to send it to the door. In the end, Yao Jinghu said: "That's it, even if you don't go to see a doctor, you can't live here anymore, so your brother and sister will go back to the mountain with me." Bai Suntai smiled helplessly, thinking that he was really sick and rushed to the doctor. Then the four of them will join the remaining more than 30 brothers from the Octagonal Village, except for Tang Xiao and Yao Jinghu, the others started to dig dozens of pits and bury the villagers who were killed in the village. Tang Xiao stood in front of Master Niu's grave, and couldn't help crying, clasping his hands together and praying silently in his heart.
It was already noon after the busyness, and the group embarked on the return journey, Yao Jinghu was carried on a stretcher, and Ye Suiyun and Tang Xiao walked last. Ye Suiyun asked in a low voice why he wanted to go to Octagonal Village, Tang Xiao smiled playfully: "My stupid brother, what are we hiding in Tibet for, Octagonal Village is probably the most suitable place to hide." I heard that the reputation of the iron mountain is not bad, and it can eat and drink well, why not go. β
Ye Suiyun suddenly realized and said with a smile: "It turns out that your treatment is fake, and it is true to confuse your mouth." Tang smiled and said: "There are so many sick people in the world, how can I take care of them, but it's better to save one more." Ye Suiyun also put away his smile, nodded again and again, and said apologetically: "Miss Tang, you have suffered these days, this should not be your sin." Tang Xiao was stunned and said with a smile: "The little woman doesn't feel suffering, then it's not suffering." After that, he ignored Ye Suiyun and walked to the front quickly, but Ye Suiyun was stunned and couldn't figure out why she said that.
Everyone walked through the forest all the way, the terrain gradually rose, and they arrived at the place at dusk, and entered the main hall directly according to Yao Jinghu's request. Ye Tang and the others saw an old man in a black robe and yellow face standing by the door from a distance, his figure was quite tough, but his face was melancholy. Yao Jinghu got up and bowed, "Master, the apprentice is back." "It turns out that the old man is the big boss of the octagonal village.
Tie Rushan's face sank when he saw Yao Jinghu's appearance. Yao Jinghu said: "Dong Long's gang tricked me into Peng Village, he had already ambushed people there, if it wasn't for Brother Bai to bring people to arrive, I am afraid that the apprentice's life will be put aside." Tie Rushan remained silent, waved his hand and let the others retreat first, leaving only Yao Jinghu and Bai Suntai, Ye Suiyun and Tang Xiao had to wait outside the door.
When there were only three people left in the hall, Tie Rushan asked, "Who ambushed you?" Bai Sun Tai said: "Nanshan is a swarm. Tie Rushan was taken aback and said, "It's them, what happened later?" Yao Jinghu said: "Those little minions have been eliminated by us, and the four leaders of the swarm have also died, and this group of green forest scum will no longer exist." β
Tie Rushan was taken aback again, he knew the details of a swarm of bees, and most of what these people did was to collect money to do things, kill people and set fires, and ** plunder, and never pay attention to rules and morality. However, a few of the leaders were indeed very capable, and they were not fools, so they asked, "The four leaders were also killed by you?" Yao Bai and the two glanced at each other and told the truth what they had seen.
Tie Rushan was silent for a long time after listening, pacing back and forth in the hall, and said for a long time: "If it is really as you said, killing a swarm of people, the level of martial arts is really terrifying, I think about it, there are only a few people in the world who have this skill, but they will never appear here now." Then he frowned slightly and said: "Fortunately, as Jinghu said, he killed a swarm of bees, and it seems that he didn't come for my Octagonal Village." It's just that such a tall person, how can he appear at that time and place, it's really incomprehensible. Yao Bai and the others couldn't figure it out.
Tie Rushan instructed again: "Jinghu, there is no evidence whether this matter was done by Dong Long, you should be patient for the time being, and don't startle the snake." Yao Jinghu said angrily: "Master, isn't this obvious, if it weren't for Dong Long telling me that there is a famous doctor in Peng Village, how would I have found it, he has been aiming at your position in charge for a day or two, and getting rid of me is to hit you old." Bai Suntai said: "Brother Yao, the big boss is right, we have no evidence, Dong Long can be completely pushed clean." We should listen to the great masters and be patient for the time being. Yao Jinghu also felt justified after hearing this, although he was not convinced, but he didn't say more. Suddenly, he remembered something again, and said, "Master, how is Fei Fei?" Tie Rushan listened to him ask about his daughter, sighed and just shook his head. Yao Jinghu said: "I brought back a little girl this time, and she said that she could cure Feifei's disease. β
Bai Suntai said on the side: "Brother Yao, you are really in a hurry, how many famous doctors have we invited back and forth, but they are all helpless, that little girl is just gone, take the opportunity to eat and drink, how can you believe it." β
Yao Jinghu said: "Anyway, we have also prepared for the worst, and it is not good to cure it, so it doesn't hurt to ask her to try it." Tie Rushan knew that this apprentice was infatuated with his daughter, and in the current situation, he was no less anxious than himself, so he agreed after a little hesitation.
Tang Xiao and the two were taken outside a room, and the maid asked Ye Suiyun to wait outside, but Mrs. Bai Sun did not come with them. Only Tang Xiao and Tie Rushan, Yao Jinghu's master and apprentice followed the maid in. When he entered the room, Tang Xiao saw a woman lying on the bed, her eyes were closed, her face was gray and bloodless, and she knew that it was Tie Feifei. Tie Rushan said: "She had a cold earlier, headache and toothache for days, and then used medicine, but who knew that the condition was getting worse and worse. "Words stopped, no more talking.
Tang Xiao nodded lightly after hearing this, and did not go to see the patient first, but paced around the room, came to the head of the bed, picked up the medicine bowl that rested on it and sniffed it, and asked Tie Feifei about the diet and medicine he had taken in recent days, and the maid said them one by one.
Yao Jinghu saw that she didn't glance at the patient for a long time, but just asked some irrelevant things, became impatient, and said, "Girl, if you can't see it, I don't blame you, can you not delay the time, we have to find another doctor." Tie Rushan hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, telling him not to say more.
Tang Xiao ignored him, just intently asked, and after a while, he grabbed Tie Feifei's wrist and began to check the pulse. Who knew that in just one breath and one breath, Tang Xiao stood up and said to the maid: "I said, you remember." β
The maid hurriedly took out a pen and paper, Tang Xiao hugged her hands, and said: "Two taels of licorice, two liters of water, add white honey, boil until one and a half liters, divide it into five times, take it in one day, and take it for three days in a row." Half a catty of ginger to take the juice, ginseng three coins, mix with egg white, mix ginger juice, boil it into a paste in a silver pot, take it before going to bed, and take it for three days. Cnidium monnieri, schisandra chinensis, and dodder seeds each have five dollars, mash and pinch the pills, and send them with warm wine, three times a day, and also for three consecutive days. When he had finished speaking, he asked the maid, "Have you written it down?" The maid wiped the sweat from her forehead and nodded, "Write it down, girl, please see." β
Tang Xiao checked that it was correct, nodded and said, "Not bad." Then he said to the stunned Yao Jinghu: "If you want to save people, take the medicine according to the prescription to ensure that she can get up and quarrel with you after three days." If you still think I'm a liar, then tear up the prescription. After speaking, he walked outside the house, and Tie Rushan hurriedly asked, "This girl, dare to ask my son what disease he is suffering from?" β
Tang Xiao turned around and said: "Don't be in a hurry to ask, after three days, see how the effect is, if the patient improves, then you should be advised." With one foot in the door, he leaned over and reminded the maid, "Remember to inform me when you take the first dose, and don't feed it to her if I don't do it." After saying that, he flashed out of the house.
