Chapter 331: Trying the Medicine
Hu Qiong said: "People's lives, by the sky, not by me, let's eat food and drink, don't care about him." ”
Pei Yingjun said apologetically: "It's me who wants to explore the technique of Xiao Dragon King to control snakes, and you will die with me." ”
Hu Qiong sat over, whispered to Pei Yingjun's ear, and said, "I can't blame you, I've been thinking about entering the Dragon King Palace for the past few days." ”
Pei Yingjun asked in surprise, "Didn't you inquire about Leng Hongguo?"
"It's not. I'm here to find King Xiao Long. Then he told Duoyun that he was looking for Xiao Chaodong.
Pei Yingjun asked, "Is this Xiao Dragon King Xiao Chaodong?"
"That's him. ”
"Then what are you going to do? ”
Hu Qiong said: "After I finished eating, I went down the mountain and went to Wushan to find the Moon Worship Sect and invite them to kill Xiao Chaodong." ”
Pei Yingjun said: "This Doctor Fan doesn't know what kind of evil martial arts it is, and the martial arts of King Xiao Long have not yet been shown, and I think it is unfathomable." If you invite a bunch of women to come, aren't you sheep in the mouth of a tiger?"
Hu Qiong groaned: "I'll think of a way to invite more capable people from the rivers and lakes to come and break the evil art of King Xiao Long." As for Dr. Fan, he just uses poison to gase. ”
Pei Yingjun said: "You go down the mountain, what if you get poisoned?"
Hu Qiong said: "King Xiao said that after three months, come and drink the medicine again, I think these three months are enough." Pei Daxia, you stay here and study the detoxification. Then someone comes into the mountain, and you remind them to be poisoned. ”
Pei Yingjun tearfully agreed.
The two wanted to open, so they ate food and drank. In the afternoon, the two went down the mountain and walked out of the village by catching snakes. Coming to the foot of Fanjing Mountain, Hu Qiong said goodbye to Pei Yingjun, this time, it may be life and death, both of them are very sad, they don't feel that tears flow from the corners of their eyes, wipe away their tears, and the two wave goodbye.
Hu Qiong walked out of Fanjing Mountain step by step. From this to the north to Wuxia, it is full of mountain roads, rugged and difficult, just to delay time, Hu Qiong decided to detour to Hunan and then to Hubei, all the way on horseback, although walking more, but saving time.
Having made up her mind, Hu Qiong walked towards the east. When it got dark, he slept in the mountains. On the second day, get up, eat some mountain fruits, drink some spring water, and continue to walk east. After walking for a few days, he came to the border of Guizhou and Hunan provinces, bought a horse in the market town, and rode to the east.
On this day, Hu Qiong rode to Huaihua City. This Huaihua City is a big city in Xiangxi, which means the meaning of Huairou naturalization, also known as "Crane City", and has been called "the gateway of Guizhou and Yunnan" since ancient times. It was noon, and the streets were bustling with people dressed in colorful costumes. Hu Qiong pulled his horse and walked in the downtown area, when he suddenly heard someone shouting overhead:
"Hu Brothers......"
I don't want to meet acquaintances in Xiangxi!
Hu Qiong hurriedly raised his head to look up, and in the restaurant, a big bald head stuck out of the window.
It was the monk who set off the ship.
The monk returned from the pilgrimage to Jizu Mountain in Yunnan. Seeing this, Hu Qiong hurriedly agreed, and was also very happy, handed over the horse to the shopkeeper, and walked upstairs.
The monk who set off the ship has already greeted him, and he has not seen him for a few months, and he is very happy to meet. The monk occupies a large table by the window. The shopkeeper added a few more big dishes, this is a mountainous area, and the table is full of mountain delicacies.
The monk said, "I don't want to meet you here." Let's have a good drink at noon. ”
Hu Qiong drank a few bowls of wine with the monk Qizhou, and then slowly told the monk about his experience in the past one or two months. The monk said: "I didn't expect that in less than two months, you would have these strange things. ”
Hu Qiong asked, "Master, what kind of poison do you think I drank here?"
The monk asked, "What's wrong with your body?"
Hu Qiong replied: "I don't feel anything, it's just that there is some faint pain in the dantian." ”
The monk said: "This is troublesome, the poison is gathered in the dantian, but it is not easy to get rid of it." ”
Hu Qiong said: "Then forget it, life and death are in the sky, so I have to let it go." ”
The monk said: "There are five mixed places here, strange mountains and different waters, what strange medicinal materials are not there? What strange medicine is not available? What capable people are not? I don't believe it, I can't cure your poison? We need to drink now." ”
Two people drink in the restaurant, looking at the street scene by the window, which is very different from Middle-earth, dazzling in colorful clothes, and bird sounds in dialects, and the view is insufficient.
The wine is over, and the sun is setting in the west. The monk took Hu Qiong to the largest medical shop in Huaihua City, called "Jishitang", and walked in.
In the evening, Hu Qiong sat on the stone bench, and an old doctor with a gray beard closed his eyes to check his pulse, and after a long time, he said: "I know it's poison, but I don't know what poison is." He looked at Hu Qiong and said, "Master Hu, do you spit out some and come out to see?"
Hu Qiong said: "I've been vomiting for a few days, and if I vomit again, it's the wine I drank today." The monk said: "The person who poisoned the person said that he would drink it after three months, what kind of poison could it be?"
The old doctor tightened his eyebrows and said, "I can't guess what kind of poison it is?"
Half a day to no avail. The healer couldn't bear it, and said, "I'll gather all the healers in the city tomorrow, and everyone will come and see what kind of poison it is." ”
At this point, Hu Qiong had to quit and find a hotel to stay in Zuojin. On the second day, I got up, ate breakfast, and came back to Jishitang. Sitting in the store, a cup of tea time, the doctors in and outside the city gathered in Jishitang, there were as many as seven or eight, some fat, some thin, some black, some white, respectively came up to Hu Qiong for consultation, it took a morning, some said that it was in this poison, some said that it was in that poison, there was no difference, and there were as many as six or seven prescriptions prescribed.
In the Jishi Hall, seven or eight people, seven or eight mouths, were so noisy that spit was flying, and in the end, even the monk who set off the boat had no opinion, so he decided to try this prescription one by one.
When I returned to the hotel, I bought six or seven pairs of medicines, boiled a black sand jar of medicine a day, and poured it into Hu Qiong. After a long time, the jar of medicine was dishonest in the stomach, and it made a fuss, turning over the river and the sea for a while, and finally vomiting and leaking. Thinking that the poison had been discharged, Hu Qiong was lucky, but the pain of the dantian was the same.
At noon on the second day, I drank another pair of medicines, and suddenly my stomach ached, my face turned pale, and I kept rolling on the bed, but I didn't vomit, and I didn't vomit until the night, so I was at peace, and I didn't vomit and discharge, and the poison was naturally not discharged.
On the third day, Hu Qiong lay on the bed, a trace of anger, and the monk who set off to save him was heartbroken, and poured him a third pair of medicine. This pair of medicine went down, the pain in the stomach was like a knife, and I couldn't help but fall on the bed, slapped it with one palm, and broke the bed board, and with a "wow" sound, I spit out a mouthful of blood.
The monk of Qichuan was shocked: "What you drink is actually poison." ”
I saw Hu Qiong "oh", her head tilted back, and she lay on the bed stiffly, fainting, and she was almost out of breath.
The monk who set off the boat panicked and hurriedly carried the old doctor of Jishitang and begged him to save Hu Qiong. The healer took a pulse and said, "It's okay. He took out a slender dry needle and pricked more than 30 dry needles on Hu Qiong's body. In less than a cup of tea, Hu Qiong snorted and woke up slowly.
Although Hu Qiong woke up, she was lying on the bed, her face was sallow, her cheeks were sunken, and she was dying. The gruel was boiled in the store, and the monk brought it to Hu Qiong and fed it to Hu Qiong in person. Hu Qiong drank half a sip and spit it out. He shook his hand and said, "Let me lie down for a while." Seeing that he was weak, the monk stopped bothering him, closed the door, and went out.
Summer nights, the weather is muggy. Mosquitoes are buzzing and flying, there is no mosquito net, there is a mosquito repellent grass burned in the house, but the effect is not good, Hu Qiong is stiff on the bed, unable to move, the mosquitoes fall on the body without any scruples, sucking blood hard, Hu Qiong can't care about the pain.
The monk who set off the boat was an old man who couldn't serve people, and he actually put the pillow on Hu Qiong's neck, so that Hu Qiong's head was tilted back, and his whole body was stiff, so he had to let his mouth open wide and unable to close.
After sleeping for a day, sleepless at night, the oil lamp was lit in the house, Hu Qiong's eyes were dry, and she could only look at the roof. The roof of the inn is neatly decorated, and it is covered with smooth reed mats. There are a few geckos crawling around quickly on the reed mats, busy catching mosquitoes and spiders to eat. Hu Qiong watched the gecko prey and chatted to spend the night.
Suddenly, a large spider ran up to the center of the reed mat. It was the first time Hu Qiong had seen this kind of big spider, and his head couldn't rotate, so he relied on his eyes to rotate to observe this big spider. This big spider has eight legs, each leg is divided into seven sections, there are black, red and yellow three colors, and there is a big belly as red as blood, which is particularly eye-catching, this is obviously a poisonous spider. It ran to the center of the reed mat and looked around proudly. Suddenly, a gecko, like lightning, ran to the center and bit the spider's belly with one bite.
Hu Qiong stared at them for a moment, they kept struggling, the spider's eight legs always wanted to grab the gecko, the gecko bit its stomach and did not let go, after a while, the spider was exhausted, unable to move, the gecko succeeded, it ate its belly, and finally even its eight legs were swallowed into the stomach.
The gecko swallowed the whole spider, and its belly was swollen upside down, and it crawled in the center of the reed mat, unable to crawl. Suddenly, one was not paying attention, and the gecko fell, just falling into Hu Qiong's open mouth.
