Chapter 31: Ignition and Poisoning
An alley in the middle of the city.
Mei Qian hid behind an uninhabited wooden house, frowning and muttering to herself.
"How can I lose a hundred times in a row, I have such bad luck?"
An old voice rang out in my ears.
"You haven't seen the clue after losing a hundred times, your eyesight is much worse than that cloud."
"His combat power is indeed higher than mine, but compared to his eyesight, I will never lose to any of my peers! He's just lucky, and I can tell he didn't win by a thousand dollars. Mei Qian said stubbornly.
"Luck? Hehe, people out of the virtual box, he will stare at your hand every time, at the moment when your five fingers are about to form the form of rock-paper-scissors, his virtual fist will be dealt with instantly, in the eyes of anyone, your punches are synchronized, no one cheats, but people's eyesight is faster than you, so you can win every time. The old voice said.
Mei Qian narrowed her eyes slightly, gritted her teeth, and had nothing to say.
He was not convinced by Yun Que, and always was.
But this time, Mei Qian had to be convinced.
Not to mention the rest, he can't reach the eyesight alone.
Otherwise, you won't lose a hundred times in a row.
After a while, the old voice reminded:
"Almost, it's time to go back."
Mei Qian immediately walked out of the alley, and instead of going to the city gate, he returned to the dungeon area along the passage.
"No matter how good your eyesight is, it's just a martial artist, and the real good things can't be perceived by martial artists."
Mei Qian looked very proud, came to the end of the passage, and continued to dig and rummage.
Since the other side has been opened by giant rats, there is not much dirt and rocks left around.
Soon Mei Qian frowned.
Nothing but sand and gravel.
"Where's the treasure? You said that there is an arcane aura here, is there only four blood fruits? Mei Qian said.
"The blood fruit is worth a little money in your eyes, but it is no different from dung in the eyes of the old man, how can you call it a treasure." A halo flashed on the heart guard, and then the old voice said with doubts: "The breath of the treasure is gone." ”
"Disappear? How could it disappear! Except for the blood fruit, Yun Que and I didn't dig up anything. Mei Qian said.
"The treasure is gone, this matter is weird, get out of here as soon as possible." The old man's voice was silent when he finished speaking.
Mei Qian did not dare to stay long, and immediately left the dungeon area and returned to the city gate.
……
Quack Pavilion.
The old doctor is always busy.
There are more and more patients in the hospital, all of them are people in the neighborhood who are crazy and want to bite, and they are tied up by their families and sent for treatment.
The few apprentices in the infirmary were busy.
Mu Qingyao is also helping.
According to the old doctor's instructions, Mu Qingyao roughly learned the three soul-calming needles in less than half an hour, and tied a crazy woman with her own hands.
The old doctor nodded again and again, cast an approving gaze, and gave Mu Qingyao a very high evaluation.
Talented!
It's a pity that the three injections can only temporarily eliminate the patient's mania, and if the virulence is not removed, it will also get sick.
The girl who had been treated earlier suddenly went manic again, biting her mother and rushing to the hall, her mouth bloody and her eyes red, like a demon.
Since Mu Qingyao was the closest, the girl pounced directly and bit when she opened her mouth.
Mu Qingyao pressed the girl's head with all her might, dodging the other party's teeth.
The girl who became ill became extremely powerful, and Mu Qingyao's strength could not be controlled at all, and several family members of the patient rushed over to help before the girl was subdued and tied up again.
The chaos in the hall had just subsided, and a group of frantic people poured into the door of the quack hall, numbering dozens.
These people had blood on their teeth, and they had bitten many people, like a pack of wild beasts rushing towards the hall of the infirmary.
The old healer frowned and sighed heavily.
No matter how fast he treats, he doesn't have the speed at which the strange poison spreads fast, and it is difficult to return to heaven on his own.
"Mr. Seven only saves people, we are guarding the door!"
A man who had just brought a patient to his home yelled and was the first to stand up.
"Without Mr., my daughter has no hope of being cured, I will help guard the door!"
The girl's father also stepped forward.
"Count me in!"
"I'll do it too!"
"Let's block the door of the infirmary, if you want to rush in and make trouble, kill us first!"
"There are so many of us, can't we still guard a courtyard!"
"Sir, don't worry, even if we are bitten to death, we won't let one in!"
A dozen men stood in the doorway.
There are old and young.
These people are of different ages, different backgrounds, and different statuses, but what they have in common is their determination to protect their families.
The old doctor's eyes flickered slightly, silent, and a certain past hidden in the depths of his heart was touched by this scene.
When the beastly crowd outside the door was about to rush into the hospital, these frantic people suddenly flew into the air.
Not to fly by themselves, but to be kicked away.
After a sound of fists and kicks, the outside of the hospital hall was clean.
A group of crazy people were all kicked out of the courtyard, and one by one they couldn't get up.
"I don't see a doctor, so I'm in the way."
Yun Que complained and strode into the hall of the medical hall.
More than a dozen men at the door were dumbfounded, and made a noise to open the way, for fear of being knocked away by Yun Que's punch and kick.
Mu Qingyao wiped the fine sweat from her forehead and smiled.
Then the little county lord saw that Yun Que was followed by a person, sloppy and sloppy, like a beggar, and he didn't know where he came from.
"Who is this?" Mu Qingyao wondered.
"The small surname is the sixth, just call me the sixth." The sloppy man laughed.
"Wait another half an hour and get ready to go." Yun Que said in a low voice.
Half an hour is enough for Mei Qian to be ready to receive at the city gate.
At this time, the girl who was tied up suddenly let out a scream, and the bulging veins on her forehead burst one after another, and her face was covered with blood, and she was in critical condition.
Due to the lack of manpower in the hospital, some of the patients' family members will not be able to treat them, so they can only stare in a hurry.
Mu Qingyao did not hesitate to lend a hand and urgently bandaged it with a hemostatic bandage.
Yun Que saw that she was busy alone, so she had to go up to help, and the two quickly sealed the girl's wound with the cooperation of the two.
But only expediency.
The bandage was quickly stained red with blood.
The girl's breath became weaker and weaker, and if she continued like this, she would die of blood loss before she could get sick again.
"Uncle Seven, can't you cure it, what kind of disease is it?" Yun Que looked at the old doctor who had just finished treating a patient.
"Severe blood." The old doctor said in a deep voice: "The strange poison enters the blood, causing the blood to boil, like a strong wind crossing the border, flying sand and stones, and people can die of blood overnight." ”
Hearing this, the family members of the patients in the hospital were all stunned, and many of them collapsed to the ground, crying everywhere.
Mu Qingyao frowned lightly and said:
"It is recorded in the ancient medical books that this disease, severe blood, rat poison, epidemic disease for thousands of miles, corpses all over the field, with the blood of the poisonous source with three talents and strange flowers can be solved."
The seventh uncle nodded slowly, and said with a look of approval:
"The little girl is so knowledgeable that she can remember such a rare illness."
"Poison blood? I just ran into a red-haired rat demon. "Yun Que Dao.
The crying in the hospital stopped instantly, and the desperate family members looked at each other, their eyes flashing with hope.
"It ran away." Yun Que said again.
The crying continued to sound, and the most ill girl began to bleed from the corners of her mouth at this moment, and her illness worsened.
The girl's parents were in utter despair.
"But I cut off the rat's tail." Yun Que took off the black bag behind him.
The crying in the hospital stopped again, and people almost stopped breathing.
Uncle Seven took out the giant rat tail in the black bag, and said:
"The needle-haired poisonous rat, sure enough, this demon is haunted, such a complete rat tail is enough to refine a sufficient source of poison."
"If Uncle Seven buys it, I'll give you a seven-fold discount." Cloud lacks a way.
"The rat tail can be used in medicine, it is a rare thing for me, the market price is around four hundred taels, and I will pay five hundred taels."
The old man said that he would let the little apprentice take the silver tickets, a total of five, one hundred taels each.
Yun Que only accepted three silver tickets, and said righteously: "Old customer, there must be a discount!" That's always how I do business. ”
The old doctor smiled, and without much excuse, he put away the remaining silver tickets.
With the rat tail, the people in the hall felt that they saw hope, especially the girl's parents, who were so anxious that they burst into tears, and they waited for the seventh uncle to dispense the medicine.
Mu Qingyao's eyes flashed with a hint of unbearability, and she said softly:
"The source of poison is easy to find, but the strange flower is hard to find."
Hearing this, the girl's father was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Seven, can't he concoct an antidote?" Is that Sancai flower rare? ”
"It's so rare." The seventh uncle sighed and said, "That's a real treasure of heaven and earth." ”
The girl's father stumbled and fell to the ground, only to feel black in front of his eyes.
The four words of heaven and earth treasure are destined to have no chance with mortals.
"Will there be three talents in the city? Let's go find it! ”
"We're not afraid to take our lives!"
"That's right! Let's look together, we will definitely find it! As long as the antidote is dispensed, our family will be saved! ”
The crowd refused to give up.
Their families are on the verge of life and death, and if they don't save them, they can only wait for death.
Mu Qingyao's pretty face was filled with bitterness, and she whispered:
"Sancai Strange Flowers, born in the ice region, the flowers are divided into three colors, there is no trace of the landing, there are thousands of strange flowers in the world, only Sancai Ice Down."
In just one sentence, people's hopes were completely shattered.
The strange flowers that exist in the land of ice and snow can move under the ice on their own, such a strange thing, how can a group of mortals find it.
The inside of the hospital fell silent.
All that was left was the patients who kept screaming in pain.
The bandage on the girl's forehead was completely red with blood, and her breath was getting weaker and weaker, and she saw that she would not survive.
Her parents silently hugged her, like two lifeless old men in the twilight, and only deep despair remained in the numbness.
The old doctor looked at the family of three for a long time, and said to himself:
"The old man used to have a close friend, who was my lifelong confidant, she was good at poisoning, I was good at detoxification, one day she fought with people with the poison of the strange Gu in her body, there was only one day left to live, I could have saved her, and in the end she died."
Yun Que heard it strangely and asked, "If you can save it, why do you die?" ”
"Just because I hesitated for an hour."
Uncle Seven's voice was desolate, and he said: "When I made the decision to save her at any cost, there was only one corpse left in sight, and in order not to embarrass me, she accelerated the flow of qi and blood to speed up the time of poisoning. ”
"This is Uncle Seven, your mistake, if you save people earlier, why bother to separate heaven and man." Cloud lacks a way.
"Yes, I have always regretted it all these years, if I hadn't hesitated for that hour, she wouldn't have died, there are twelve hours a day, but in this life, there is often only one thought."
The old man smiled desolate and asked, "Yun Que, if your confidante is about to die in front of you, and you need to give up the hope of advancing to a stronger realm to save it, will you hesitate?" ”
The confidante in the old man's mouth obviously refers to Mu Qingyao next to him.
"It's a troublesome choice, so I'm never looking for a confidante." Cloud lacks a way.
The old man expected that Yun Que would not answer, so he looked at Mu Qingyao and said:
"Little girl, if it's you, if your confidant is dying and you need to cut off a finger to save you, how will you choose?"
Mu Qingyao took a deep look at the black-clothed young man next to him, and said solemnly: "If a soldier dies for his confidant, what does it matter if his ten fingers are broken." ”
"Hahahaha!"
The old man suddenly laughed, stroked his palms and said, "What's the matter if you have ten fingers broken!" Even a little girl would not hesitate to choose, but I hesitated for an hour and regretted it for half my life...... On fire! ”
The old man caught fire, and immediately two little apprentices ran with rat tails to prepare.
Starting a fire is the first step in pharmaceuticals.
Yun Que frowned slightly, he was very familiar with Uncle Seven, but he didn't know the origin of the other party.
Yun Que only knew that this old man's medical skills were amazing, and he was generous, and he was a very good person.
"Uncle Seven, do you have three talents in your medical hall?" Yun Que wondered.
"There is no one in the medical hall, there is no one in the city, and there may not be one in the entire Great Jin Kingdom, but I have it."
Uncle Seven smiled and said clearly: "After the Qianxi is independent, Lu knows Zhu Yi and is not surprised, and by asking about the sadness and loneliness of the world, Boyaxian is silent. ”
Click!
A flash of knife light, Uncle Seven actually used a dagger to cut off his little thumb!
The old man grabbed his little thumb and threw it to a little apprentice, and said in a loud voice:
"Medicine!"
