Chapter 18: Scorpion
Lin Yan's sudden opening startled Li Shiyi, "What did you think of?" ”
Lin Yan opened his mouth and smiled: "I am also inspired by you, since you said that since this antidote is to fight poison with poison, then I think, without black bear bile as an introduction, can you use another poisonous weed to neutralize the medicinal properties of andrographis?"
"This ...... It's too risky, I can barely control one poisonous weed, but if there are two poisonous weeds, there is no way to neutralize it at my current level. Li Shiyi thought for a while before speaking.
Lin Yan said: "I know that there is a group of scorpions not far away, and this group of scorpions has spilled a lot of scorpion tail grass due to the venom secreted by their tails on that grass, so that many scorpion tail grasses are derived, although this herb is poisonous, but its effect is detoxifying, I think you can try it." ”
Li Shiyi thought about it again and again, and felt that she could give it a try, "Okay, you lead the way, let's go." ”
"Yes. ”
After a while, the two of them came to the place that Lin Yan said, a black and shiny grass, densely packed with many black scorpions.
Even Lin Yan didn't want to provoke this group of scorpions, because in the deep mountains, being poisoned was a very troublesome thing, just as Lin Yan was thinking about what method to use to pick some scorpion grass, he saw Li Shiyi walking straight over as if he didn't know that scorpions were poisonous.
"Don't go over...... the two were already far away, and Lin Yan didn't have time to stop him, so he had to say while rushing towards Li Shiyi.
Li Shiyi turned around and smiled at Lin Yan and said, "Why are you so nervous, as if I am a weak woman." Then she took out a small medicine bag from her arms, and with a flick of her wrist, the medicine bag shot towards Lin Yan, and when she arrived in front of Lin Yan, the medicine powder immediately scattered out and sprinkled Lin Yan's body.
"This is a kind of medicinal powder from our Tang Sect, sprinkled on the body, things such as scorpions and centipedes will avoid you. ”
Although Lin Yan was stained with a layer of medicinal powder, he was disgraced, and after listening to Li Shiyi's words, he said in surprise: "It's so powerful, isn't it like a no-man's land where you have medicinal powder." ”
"It's not as effective as you think, this kind of powder is just like us people who see dirty things like feces and don't want to dodge it when they see it, but if something poses a danger to you, even if he is dirty, he will kill it. Come here. Li Shiyi looked at Lin Yan, who was standing stupidly behind him, and urged.
"I see. Lin Yan muttered and hurriedly followed.
Anyway, this medicinal powder still works very well, and the two of them walked forward cautiously, and the scorpions at their feet all gave way one after another. Lin Yan was very nervous and paid attention to the movements of the scorpion group around him, but Li Shiyi followed behind with a relaxed face.
Accidents will still happen, just when Lin Yan reached out to pick the scorpion tail grass, the tail thorn of a black scorpion next to him immediately pierced Lin Yan's fingers, fortunately, he had always been on guard, and the true qi of the body protection instantly condensed to his fingers and blocked this blow.
If it was Lin Yan in the past, the agitation of true qi could directly shock this ordinary scorpion to death, but now he controls his true qi only to protect himself, and does not harm the scorpion that attacks him.
Li Shiyi, who was behind him, saw this scene and knew that Lin Yan's words were not just casual words.
The two of them picked enough scorpion grass without danger, these herbs are precious herbs in the eyes of people, and in the eyes of the scorpion group, they have nothing to do with weeds, so this group of scorpions also watched the two humans with their nasty breath leave.
After Lin Yan handed over the herbs to Li Shiyi, Li Shiyi spoke: "Although there is no bear bile, let me go back and try this, do you have any plans?
Lin Yan thought for a while and said, "I don't plan to stay here anymore, since you're not sure, I'll go back with you and help you test the medicine." ”
"You won't be here to supervise me, since I have promised you not to kill bears, then I will definitely not go. ”
"You're wrong about me. Lin Yan felt aggrieved for a while, "Anyway, I don't have anything to do, so it's better to help my friend research a new medicine." ”
"Well, even if I'm wrong about you. But you have to know that testing drugs can be a very dangerous thing. ”
Lin Yan was noncommittal, "We are friends, and we should help you." Besides, when Shennong's family sacrificed himself to taste a hundred herbs, what happened if I tried a medicine. ”
"Hmph, you are just a little monkey in the mountains, how can you compare with Shennong!" Li Shiyi said with his hands on his hips, "But for the sake of your kindness, come with me, but your life in the mountains is not as free as your life in the mountains." My grandfather is the fourth elder of the Tang Sect, although my grandfather is the fourth elder of the Tang Sect, you can walk around on my grandfather's mountain peak, but it is best not to touch anything, the things of the Tang Sect may be highly poisonous. You can't go to other peaks and run blindly, you will be poisoned by them as an intruder. ”
"Good, good, everything is up to you. ”
Along the way, Li Shiyi told him a lot of things to pay attention to, the most mentioned is not to run around, Li Shiyi was worried that he was used to being wild in the mountains and forests, and he couldn't control himself, so he mentioned a few more places and told him not to go, otherwise if he was caught indiscriminately, even if her grandfather came forward, he would not be able to save him.
The two of them did not enter through the main gate of the Tang Gate, but directly had a mountain path leading from the deep mountains to the peak of Li Chunfeng.
Along the way, I met a few Tang Sect disciples who were guarding, and they all knew Li Shiyi, and they didn't interrogate Lin Yan next to him and let him go, but these disciples were full of curiosity when they looked at Lin Yan.
It is said to be a mountain peak, but in fact it is just a courtyard built on a high ground, the yard is very large, dozens of houses are lined up, sitting on the main seat facing north and south, it is a beam-and-pillar house, simple but not simple.
Other houses surround the entire courtyard, leaving the middle space vacant. The open space is very large, and there is a high platform in the middle, and there is a bell sitting on the platform, the bell is not very large, but there are many textures carved on it, and it looks very exquisite.
There are four small rings in each of the four directions near the high platform, which are much shorter than the middle high platform.
There were many Tang Sect disciples coming and going in the open space in the courtyard, and when Li Shiyi brought Lin Yan in, although it attracted everyone's attention, no one dared to come up and interrogate.
Li Shiyi took Lin Yan into a house, Lin Yan went in and found that there was a hole inside, although the house was not very big from the outside, the space inside was very sufficient, there were many pharmaceutical instruments, and there were several rows of cabinets next to it, no need to ask Lin Yan to know that there were all kinds of medicinal materials inside.
Although it was not as big as the room where Lin Fenghua used to refine medicine, Lin Yan was also dazzled when he looked at it.
After Li Shiyi came in, he said to Lin Yan: "You wait for me here, don't touch the medicinal herbs, some are poisonous." With that, he ran to a device, took the scorpion out of his bag, and began to dispense.
