Section 26 The Nine Female Springs (2)

"The water in the river is not poisonous, but the fish are poisonous. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Ling'er thought, "There must be a problem with fish food." ”

Sending the boy away, Ling'er was alone along the Qingshui River looking for clues. But until the evening, she found nothing.

If the problem of fish poisoning is not solved, I am afraid that there will be large-scale poisoning of villagers in the villages through which this clear water river flows. Ling'er knew how serious the situation was, so she continued to investigate despite the darkness.

Suddenly, Ling'er saw a cardamom girl not far in front of her who was throwing something into the river. She immediately began her light work and flew to the girl's side.

"Stop!" Ling'er grabbed the girl's hand and restrained her "shoulder well" while she was defenseless.

"What are you doing?" the girl shouted angrily, feeling numb all over her body and unable to move anymore.

Ling'er snatched the small particles in her hand and sniffed them, and said, "I haven't wronged you, aren't these fish foods milled from 'Yusheng Grass'?"

"I grind this fish food, but I don't know what the 'leftover grass' is. The girl explained softly, "My grandmother is very ill, and there is no silver to treat her, and I want to come to the river to catch some small fish to replenish her body, is it not possible?" said the girl, and began to cry.

This cry made Ling'er's heart soften, and she asked, "Is it the fish food that was just put into the fish to catch fish?"

The girl crushed her tears and said, "Despite this, I still can't catch a fish." ”

"How can you catch fish by throwing fish food? Do you know that these fish foods almost killed people?" Ling'er said softly.

"Really? Then I won't vote again. The girl said in horror.

Ling'er didn't doubt him, so she stepped forward to unlock the acupuncture points for her. Ling'er apologized to her: "I'm really sorry for misunderstanding you before." Grandma is seriously ill?"

The girl nodded sadly.

"Maybe I can help. Ling'er said.

"Is my sister a doctor?" Seeing Ling'er nodding, the girl said happily, "Great, please come with me." With that, she pulled Ling'er and ran home.

The Jade Flute Prince, who had bid farewell to Ling'er at Mount Wutai, quickly contacted his Demon Cult subordinates.

They came to Geng Town.

"Childe, there is no whereabouts of her for the time being. Li Yun, captain of the Flame Knight Flying Tigers, said.

The Jade Flute Princesse said unhappily: "Two months ago, she was hit by my 'Soul Shadow Palm', and without an antidote, she will not live for seven days, unless she uses the Nine Girls Spring Water to control the toxins. And you, the Flying Tigers, have been investigating here for so long, and they have gained nothing!"

"It's the subordinates who are not doing well, please punish the son!" Li Yun and the other six flame knights knelt on the ground to admit their guilt.

"Childe is angry!" Ge Fei hurriedly interceded for them, "It's not to blame them, there has been an endless stream of people who have gone to fetch the water of the Nine Girls Spring recently, and it is really difficult to find her maid from the crowd." ”

"The divine effect of the Nine Girls Spring is rarely known, why have a large number of people taken water recently, does this still need to be investigated by Ben Gongzi himself?"

"My subordinates will investigate immediately!" Li Yun said.

The girl lived in a dilapidated wooden hut several miles outside of Geng Town. The cottage is far away from the official road and is very remote.

Ling'er followed the girl back home late at night.

"Grandma has been unconscious. The girl said, pushing open the door of a room.

The room was empty, with only a simple table and chairs and a small bed.

On the bed lay an old woman over half a hundred, her face as pale as paper, and her lips were frighteningly black.

Ling'er hurriedly walked to the bedside, grabbed the old woman's cold wrist, and took her pulse. Her pulse was disorganized, which startled Ling'er.

"She suffered extremely serious internal injuries, but fortunately she has deep internal strength, otherwise her life would have been lost!" Ling'er said in surprise.

The girl had quietly pulled out a dagger and pointed it at Ling'er's back, ready to kill people like she had done with those quacks.

Ling'er gently opened the placket of the old woman's clothes to check, and sure enough, as Ling'er expected, there was a dark brown palm print on her chest. Ling'er took out a silver needle and pricked it on her Taiyi acupoint, and a drop of black blood flowed out. Ling'er speculated: "The internal strength of the person who injured her is very deep, and the palm technique used is extremely vicious, it may be the magic skill of the Demon Sect. ”

When the girl heard this, she felt that Ling'er seemed to be different from the quack doctors in the past, and secretly withdrew the dagger.

"People in the Demon Sect use highly toxic substances to practice demonic skills, so the old man is also poisoned at the same time. Ling'er said.

"Can this poison be cured?" the girl asked anxiously.

Ling'er thought for a while and said, "There is no perfect certainty, and now I can only use a dead horse as a live horse doctor." As she spoke, she looked back at the girl.

The girl nodded sadly, willing to try to believe the young doctor in front of her.

"Without further ado, I'll prick a needle for her to expel the poison, and you hurry up to prepare the missing medicinal materials. After Ling'er finished speaking, she thought about writing down the prescription: "Poria cocos" five taels, "White Flower Snake" one tael, "Parsnip" two taels, "Nepeta" two taels, "Honeysuckle" three taels, "Saponaria thorn" one tael, "Chuanxiong" two taels.

The girl gratefully took the prescription and the silver tael.

"It's dark and the road is far away, be careful yourself. After Ling'er finished speaking to the girl, she opened the small wallet she carried with her, took out the silver needle given by the second lady of Wang Zhuangbao, and began to acupuncture the old woman.

Soon after taking the medicine, the old woman woke up.

The girl was so surprised that she cried bitterly.

Ling'er also breathed a sigh of relief.

The old woman looked at the young doctor in amazement, and it was hard to believe that she had saved herself. The old woman said gratefully, "Is it really a girl who saved the old body? I can't imagine that you are so young, but you have such a brilliant medical skill!"

It just so happened that I had just come from Hengshan, and I carried some precious herbs such as Zizhi with me, otherwise even the most brilliant medical skills would be useless. Ling'er said with a smile, she felt that this old woman exuded a different temperament.

"The most precious thing is your humility!" the old woman praised Ling'er very much, and asked, "What sect and sect is the girl?"

"The younger generation has no door and no faction. Ling'er replied.

The old woman nodded, and then asked, "Can the girl be named?"

"The younger generation's surname is Gan Ling'er. ”

"Your surname is Gan, I don't know who the Dongling Divine Doctor is?"

Ling'er replied: "That's the ancestor. ”

"No wonder the girl is so skilled. The old woman smiled and nodded.

"The seniors are wrongly rewarded. Ling'er said modestly.

"The girl has cured the old body of a stubborn disease, and I don't know how to thank you. The old woman asked tentatively.

"Practicing medicine to save people is something that should be done, and the seniors don't need to take it to heart. Ling'er said with a smile.

The old woman admired her.

"The one who hurt the seniors is the master of the Demon Sect?" Ling'er suddenly asked.

The old woman didn't want to hide it, and said, "It's the Jade Flute Son of the Demon Sect." I really can't imagine that he is so young and has such a high level of internal cultivation. ”

"Jade Xiao Gongzi?" Ling'er was inevitably a little disappointed when she heard this, and said in her heart: "I didn't expect him to be such a cruel person, Brother Zhong Gong is really blindsided." ”

"Senior, Ling'er still has some things to deal with. Tomorrow at this time, Ling'er will come again to heal the seniors. Ling'er thought of the patient in Liujia Village, so she got up and said goodbye.

"What else is the girl doing here?" asked the old woman casually.

Ling'er said: "There is a village near here, and many villagers have been poisoned by food, but fortunately, the water from the Nine Girls Spring temporarily inhibits the spread of the toxin. A few days ago, Ling'er passed by the village and detoxified them. Now I don't know if they are recovering well, so I want to go back and see. ”

When the old woman heard this, she glanced at the girl beside her, and said with a smile, "Miss Gan, be careful all the way." ”

Ling'er nodded, and left the humble cabin.
