Chapter 127: Development of an antidote
The mountain ghost soldiers found the body of the Taha leader in a pit in a black pine tree, 10 miles from the big tent by the river.
Because his head was beaten to a pulp, it was impossible to identify at all, so the identity of the corpse could only be judged by the bone ornaments on his body that represented his identity.
Taha's status is not ordinary, he is one of the leaders of the four major clans, and he is in charge of the Eastern Mountain Ghost Country, that is, this part of the land bordering the northwestern snowfields.
The most frustrating thing was that Taha's blood beads and the white bone staff were all snatched away by the monster named Ye Ling.
The gray-robed man sat in a messy tent, and the death of one of the leaders caused some tribes to have a split mind, and they no longer fought with the army, and began to lead their own tribe away.
Although the stupid actions of these minor patriarchs will inevitably lead to the crazy revenge of the clan leaders in the future, the problems that the gray-robed people have to face at present still exists:
The most foreigner, especially one of the same clan as Ye Ling, could no longer gather the strength of the various tribes of the mountain ghosts and unite to attack the Hongyuan Empire.
If he had known this, he should not have taken the lead and proposed the idea of avenging the Sword Ghost Clan.
Just when he was sad, there was a faint voice wafting out of the air.
"This time, it was not well done. The voice said.
The gray-robed man hurriedly got up and said to the air in front of him, "Yes, I do—"
Halfway through his words, the gray-robed man's whole body trembled and he began to be afraid.
He thought about it for a while, and felt that he couldn't take all the mistakes, so he immediately explained: "That Taha is too flamboyant and has attracted Ye Ling's attention......
"Oh?" said the voice in the void, a slightly sarcastic one, "is that so?"
When the gray-robed man heard this, he didn't dare to say anything more, so he bowed his head and said nothing.
"Forget it, Ye Ling is indeed not something that people like you can deal with, take this. ”
As soon as the words fell, a drop of purple-black water gradually condensed and fell from mid-air.
The gray-robed man opened his only hand and caught the droplets.
After the water droplets fell, they quickly solidified into a pill.
"...... this?" the gray-robed man asked.
"The poison of the gods. The voice replied briefly, "Find a suitable time and kill Ye Ling." This venom is produced by the Stygian Sea Giant Tree, and only one drop is produced in the upper realm for a thousand years, so you must take good control of it......"
"Ye Ling, you have to die......"
The voice faded away.
The gray-robed man sat down again, picked up the cold tea, and poured a large gulp.
Before he knew it, the clothes on his back were already soaked with cold sweat.
Looking at the purple-black pill in his hand, he fell into contemplation.
............
In Snow City.
In the general's mansion, after Ye Ling rushed back, he immediately brought Garcia and began to study blood clotting beads.
"According to the different physiques, the blood plague composition of each blood spell master is also different, you know this, right?"
Garcia nodded, "It's written in the family notes. ”
"Okay, then I'll skip the explanation part. Ye Ling placed the blood clotting bead on the table, "Let's start cracking it." ”
Not long after, the cultivators in the military camp who specialized in studying the spells of the Mountain Ghost Clan also rushed to the general's mansion.
"How's the situation outside?" Ye Ling asked by the way.
"It's okay, more than two dozen people died, and the rest can last one night, and most of them are fine. ”
Ye Ling nodded, for a city of 10,000 people, such casualties were already very fortunate.
Blood plagues, which are generally divided into two types, heat plague and cold plague, require different antidotes.
After the large categories are determined, the dosage ratio of each antidote also varies according to the specific situation.
After each antidote is formulated, it must be combined with blood clotting beads until the medicine is combined with it and transformed into clear and transparent white water, which is considered to be a successful development.
Two hours passed, and seeing that it was about to fall into the night, everyone's hands and feet couldn't help but speed up.
After a dozen failures in a row, the latest pair of potions is out.
Ye Ling smashed the pill and turned it into the clear water infected with blood plague.
A gratifying scene appeared, the black pill melted into the water, and soon became transparent and colorless.
The crowd was about to cheer, but they saw a little red dust released from the cup, floating on the surface of the water.
"No, I can't. Ye Ling shook his head, "This potion is still not complete, we need to blindly 'purify the water lotus'." ”
Among the martial artists, there were those who knew a little bit about Danshu, and they frowned at this time.
"Pure water lotus is a herb in the water in the southern region, which is extremely rare in the first place, and this kind of thing is really not found in the northwest of the icy and snowy land. ”
Ye Ling nodded, "Of course I know this...... Pure water lotus is the best medicine for febrile blood plague, let me think of alternatives......"
Now, Ye Ling needed an item with its own cold qi to dissolve the last impurities in the blood plague.
If you broaden your thinking and don't limit yourself to medicinal materials, will there be a ......
Suddenly, his heart lit up.
"Ice Fountain!"
Ye Ling suddenly remembered that General Hua had told him not long ago that at the foot of Qianfeng Mountain, there was an abandoned village called "Qionghua Village", where the well water was extremely cold and had the miraculous effect of curing diseases.
It didn't take much time for Ye Ling to go back and forth to Qianfeng Mountain, so he decided to pick some spring water and come back to try it.
As soon as he said it, Ye Ling asked General Hua about the old site of Qionghua Village, and then went to find Xiaotang.
"Xiaotang, let the silver-maned beast go out and give me a ride. ”
"Oh, okay, where are you going?" I told her. Xiaotang said.
"An abandoned village, I'll let Zhaocai communicate with it, you don't know that place. ”
Putting on the battle armor, the silver-maned beast flapped its wings and carried Ye Ling directly from the General's Mansion.
I have to say that having wings is much more convenient.
Originally, Ye Ling needed an hour's journey, but now in about a quarter of an hour, the silver-maned beast flew past the northern outpost of Qianfeng Mountain.
Ye Ling patted the silvermaned beast's back and signaled that it was almost in position.
According to the position given by General Hua, the silver-maned beast fell to the ground, and Ye Ling jumped off the giant beast.
It was indeed a ruined village, full of crumbling walls.
There was no snow today, and a big silver-white tree stood alone in the ruins.
According to General Hana, next to this tree is the spring.
Today, the spring is covered with a large boulder, and the snow on the stone is wiped away, and black blood stains can be seen.
Obviously, the Mountain Ghost Clan had not searched this place, and they did not know the magic of the ice spring.
Ye Ling pushed away the boulder, unscrewed the lantern he brought with him, and shone it down the well.
The bright light sprinkled on the bottom of the well, and the well water was extremely clear, with a slight light blue, which was indeed different from the ordinary well water.
Just as he was about to look for something to get water, Ye Ling saw a shadow that floated up from the bottom of the water, and his heart suddenly twitched!
What floated to the surface was a pale human face......
