Chapter 36: Drink and Talk

The blood was let go for more than a moment before it gradually turned from black to red. Nangong Yu sighed and said to Qin Hongyun: "Master, Ling Zun's injury has stabilized, and his life is safe, but..."

"It's just what?" Qin Hongyun and the other three said in unison.

"It's just that this poison has been in the body for a long time, and it has already invaded the sea of qi in the body, and it is still unknown whether Ling Zun's power can be restored. Nangong Yu was slightly apologetic, bowed and said, "But don't worry, the subordinates will do their best to help Ling Zun recover!"

When the three of them heard this, the smile on their faces froze, and Xiao Liuzi couldn't help but sneer: "Isn't this due to the valley lord?"

Before Nangong Yu could speak, Qin Hongyun reprimanded: "Don't be rude!" After a pause, he said: "Nangong Valley Lord, I don't know how sure you are about my father's recovery?"

Nangong Yu and Qin Hongyun looked at each other, their originally sparkling eyes, but they were a little gloomy at this time, and said slowly: "Less than one percent!" He saw that Qin Hongyun's body was shocked, and he didn't dare to say anything more, and said: "Master, let's carry Ling Zun into the pavilion first, and I'll explain the reason for you in detail!"

Qin Hongyun nodded, carried his father into the main pavilion alone, followed Nangong Yu into a side hall, and then put his father on a bed. The bed was very large, and it was covered with thick, soft felt, which was warm to the touch. Nangong Yu turned Qin Mutian over, making him face down, and then took a brazier filled with sun-dried medicinal herbs, lit the fire and placed it under the big bed. Seeing Qin Hongyun and the others with puzzled expressions, he explained: "That poison is deep in the depths of the Qi Sea, if it is taken orally, it will not only have a slow effect, but also have little effect, but if the medicine smoke enters along the needle hole, it will be much better." ”

Xiao Liuzi said: "In this case, wouldn't the effect be more significant if you put a few more pinholes, or remove the mattress, so that the medicine basin is closer to the owner?" Nangong Yu's mouth rose, but he didn't answer, turned his head to look at Qin Hongyun, and said to him: "Master, what do you think?"

Qin Hongyun didn't know what he meant, so he couldn't help but bow his head and think, and pondered for a moment before saying: "Although I don't know much about medical science, I have also taken the pulse of my father, and I only feel that the cold qi in his old man's body is very strong, and it must be caused by poisoning." Since the toxicity is cold, if there are a few more pinholes, the speed of absorbing cold will also increase, which is not conducive to the recovery of the disease. ”

Nangong Yu nodded, and said in his heart: This son is not only quite talented in martial arts, but Yu Yili is also so transparent, hehe, no matter what, I can't let you retire from this position as the head of the house. Then he smiled and said, "What the boss said is good, but this is only one of them. There is only one sea of qi in the body, and if the needle is forcibly applied, I am afraid that the recovery of the skill will be really hopeless. When Xiao Liuzi heard this, he stuck out his tongue and stopped talking.

The four of them stayed by the bedside until dark, and Nangong Yu ordered the boy to cook some food to eat. Although this Medicine King Valley is located in the southern Xinjiang and is in the deep mountains and old forests, because the valley is full of herbs, the medicinal fragrance can always attract many fierce beasts to come, so the meal is unexpectedly rich, but Qin Hongyun is tasteless, and when he stops throwing his cup, he can't help but look at the cabinet. After the meal, Qin Hongyun said to Uncle Qin and Xiao Liuzi: "You have worked hard all the way, I will take care of my father tonight, you can rest well." ”

"But ......"

Before Xiao Liuzi could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Nangong Yu, and only listened to him: "Don't be, with me Nangong here, how can you let the head of the family suffer?"

After getting along for half a day, Uncle Qin and Xiao Liuzi's attitude towards him has changed, and when they heard him say this, they no longer insisted, and immediately went back to the room to rest after eating and drinking.

There was a small table not far in front of Qin Mutian's bed, on which was lit a red candle the thickness of a child's arm, Qin Hongyun's handsome and thin face, under the light of the candle flame, looked ruddy and soft, not as cold and stiff as usual.

Holding the flask in his left hand and the glass in his right hand, he poured it slowly, but drank it all at once. This wine was brewed in the Medicine King Valley, and it was several times stronger than ordinary wine, but he was like drinking tea.

When the pot of wine was about to end, his eyes were as bright as the stars, and suddenly he heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, although the sound was very slight, but he still heard it, and immediately laughed: "What a good wine! It can make people deaf and clear!"

The man outside the door replied: "Haha, I didn't expect that the head of the family is young, but he has a lot of research on wine! Most people in this world will be slow to react after drinking, but you are an exception!" The man said, pushed the door in, and sure enough, it was Nangong Yu.

He carried a large jar of wine in his arms, and on the jar were two bowls of the sea. When Qin Hongyun saw it, his eyes brightened, and he clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful, wonderful!"

Nangong Yu was still wearing a mask, and Qin Hongyun couldn't see his expression clearly, only to see him sit down opposite, and without saying a word, he slapped the sealing mud on the wine jar, and suddenly a rich aroma of wine poured out of it.

Qin Hongyun took a hard breath, only to feel that the aroma was condensed in his chest and abdomen, and he couldn't say how useful it was, so he said: "This wine is so fragrant, it should be a treasure that has been cellared for ten years." Well, there should be a lot of precious medicinal herbs. ”

Nangong Yu said with a smile: "What the master said is right, this wine was made by the master ten years ago, and after his old man disappeared, I buried it in the ground, and today it can finally be put to use." ”

When Qin Hongyun heard him say this, he had the intention to refuse, but when he glanced at him, he couldn't help but dispel this thought, reached out and took a sea bowl, and said, "Valley Master, if you don't get drunk today, you won't return!"

Nangong Yu responded yes, and then poured wine for Qin Hongyun, Qin Hongyun picked up the wine bowl, got up and said: "Valley Master, thank you for saving this bowl of wine!" Nangong Yu also stood up, and while holding the wine bowl and touching him, he said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"

As soon as Qin Hongyun raised his head, a bowl of wine had been drunk, and then he poured another bowl for himself, and said, "This bowl is for your affection!"

Nangong Yu interrupted: "The head of the sect is wrong, although you are young, you are a heroic young man, and you have a relationship with my Medicine King Valley, you are really the best candidate for the head of my faction!"

Qin Hongyun smiled slightly, noncommittal, he dried the wine in the bowl again, and said in his heart: "This is the case, I will seal the gold seal, if you find a more suitable one, you will naturally forget me."

After three rounds of drinking, both of them faintly had a sense of alcohol, Qin Hongyun looked at Nangong Yu and said, "Senior, why do you always wear a mask?"

Nangong Yu's eyes were full of smiles, but he didn't answer, and drank three bowls of wine in succession before he said in a dumb voice: "Ling Zun is very right, I, Nangong Yu, am really a disloyal, unfilial and greedy person who is afraid of death!"

Qin Hongyun was slightly startled, his wine was much lighter, and he thought: Nangong Valley Lord has always been arrogant, how could he belittle himself so much? Could it be that the mask I said touched his soft intestines?
