Chapter 167: The Curious Little Medicine Boy
When Li Yu woke up again, he found that he was no longer in the cave.
Overhead, there was a gray sky, flanked by cliffs that soared into the sky. And he was lying on top of a small boat, drifting slowly along the deep river.
He looked at the sky with a blank look in his eyes: he remembered that he had been bitten by a flying snake and then fainted. Before he fell unconscious, he was obviously in a cave, why did he appear here?
At this moment, a faint snoring sound came from its side.
Li Yu struggled to straighten up, but he didn't expect that as soon as he raised his head, his eyes fell back again, and his head slammed heavily on the wooden board with a bang.
Beside him, there was a little medicine boy of about seven or eight years old, who was sleeping soundly on the side of the boat. Li Yu's movement here only made him mumble something indistinctly, and then changed his position and went back to sleep, which didn't seem to affect his appearance at all.
However, the figure standing at the bow of the boat turned his head when he heard the sound, saw Li Yu with grinning teeth, and looked at the little medicine boy who was sleeping sweetly, hesitated for a moment, but still walked over and handed him the water bladder on his waist.
Because it was against the light, Li Yu only saw a black shadow coming over, and then he came to the water bladder in front of him, and he didn't even have time to say thank you when he felt his mouth was dry, so he quickly reached out to pick it up. Unexpectedly, after a long time, he only raised his finger slightly, and he suddenly looked at the black shadow with some embarrassment.
Seeing that he didn't answer, the black shadow threw the water bladder beside him with some impatience, and his body happened to be slightly on one side. Li Yu found out that the other party was actually a woman, but he couldn't see it with a light veil.
Li Yu's lips squirmed twice, but he didn't make a sound, just turned his gaze to his hand, which was telling the other party that he couldn't move.
Seeing this, the woman didn't mean to feed him at all, but walked up to the little medicine boy and kicked him lightly.
The little medicine boy twisted his body impatiently, and was about to turn over and continue to sleep, when suddenly a cold voice came: "Pretend to sleep again and leave you down!"
Li Yuzheng felt that this voice was familiar, and the little medicine boy had already crawled up as if he had been pricked by a needle, and in a panic, he went to touch the messy pile of books around him, and kept saying in his mouth: "Wake up, wake up, I'm awake!" ”
Li Yu looked at the little medicine boy who was still sleepy just now with a look of surprise, and suddenly read words to the medical book in his hand with a full face, as if the person who was snoring just now was not him.
The little medicine boy who had been performing alone for a long time suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him was not right, and when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he saw the legs still standing beside him, and immediately said with a bitter face: "I'm really not lazy, I've already found dozens of medical books, and none of them mention how to solve the poison of the Nether Flower." ”
The poison of the Nether Flower! Li Yu was shocked.
I only heard the woman say coldly: "He's awake!"
The little medicine boy sighed, suddenly reacted, turned his head to look at Li Yu, saw his bony eyes, immediately threw the book, rushed over and grabbed Li Yu's wrist.
Li Yu only felt a subtle stream of true qi begin to swim through his eight veins, and before he could ask, the hand was withdrawn again.
The little medicine boy turned his head to the woman and said happily, "Girl, he should have no worries about his life for the time being." ”
The woman nodded slightly and did not speak, but turned and walked to the bow of the boat.
Li Yu asked hoarsely, "You saved me?"
The little medicine boy was taking out a large number of bottles and cans from the small rattan box on the side, and when he heard Li Yu's words, he replied casually: "Yes, you were bitten by my domestic snake." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly came over again, and said fiercely, "Did you hurt Xiao Wu?"
"Xiao Wu?" Li Yu was stunned when he heard this, and tried to think about it, but he still didn't know who Xiao Wu he was talking about, so he shook his head and said, "I didn't." ”
The little medicine boy stared at his face tightly, wanting to see a hint from his face, and seeing Li Yu's calm appearance, he reluctantly nodded and said, "I don't expect you to have this ability." Glancing at his chapped lips, he picked up the water bladder on the side and handed it to him, "This is the herb juice prepared by my girl, which is delicious in addition to detoxifying!"
Li Yu glanced at the back of the man standing on the bow of the boat, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I can't seem to move." ”
The little medicine boy suddenly realized, his hands moved together, and he quickly pulled out several long silver needles from Li Yu's body, and then stuffed the water bladder into his hand and said, "Drink it yourself!"
Li Yu didn't get up rashly, but first tentatively raised his hand, and as a result, he easily raised the water bladder in front of him, and then he carefully raised his legs, and there was no problem, so he straightened up with all his strength, and said happily: "Thank you!" Quickly put the water bladder to his lips, and a cool and faint grassy juice suddenly flowed into his mouth, which made him feel refreshed.
Li Yu, who tasted the sweetness, was like a baby in swaddling clothes, and couldn't wait to suck it up, and the sound of swallowing was particularly loud in the silent river.
Soon, a pot full of herb juice was drunk by him, he shook the water bladder a little unsatisfied, but no drop of juice flowed out, then reluctantly returned the water bladder to the little medicine boy, seeing his smiling appearance, a little embarrassed said: "This herb juice is so delicious! I accidentally drank it all." ”
"It's okay, it's okay!" said the little medicine boy, who was obviously very pleased, and took out another water bladder, "If you like it, I still have it here." ”
Li Yu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No need, I'm already full." "He just drank up a full water bladder, and he was embarrassed enough, how could he drink it again.
The little medicine boy thought about it, hung the water bladder back on his waist, and said, "That's right, anyway, there is still a long way to go, so it's better to save some drink." After speaking, he picked up the medical book on the side again, and said casually while reading, "By the way, how did you fall for the poison of the Nether Flower?"
This question was asked a little abruptly, and Li Yu really didn't know how to answer it for a while, because it involved his life experience and a big secret.
The little medicine boy glanced at his embarrassed expression, and immediately said empathetically: "Since there is something difficult to say, don't say it, anyway, I'm not very interested." ”
Li Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and quickly changed the topic and said, "By the way, the little strong man said before that there is still a long way to go, I don't know where he is going?"
The little medicine boy replied casually: "Of course it's going out." ”
Li Yu suddenly understood, fortunately, he didn't expect to ask the truth from the other party, after all, he himself had something to hide, and asked instead: "I don't know if when the little strong man saved me, did he ever see a very cute little white guy?"
The little medicine boy put down the book in his hand, turned his head and thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "When I arrived, I only saw you lying in that hole, and there was nothing else. ”
Li Yu was suddenly disappointed, and began to worry about Xiaobai in his heart, and he didn't know if he had won the Yin Spider King, so he asked again: "What about the Yin Spider King? There are so many Yin Spiders?"
The little medicine boy looked at Li Yu with a disappointed look on his face, and said puzzledly: "What Yin Spider King?"
